Sole Sword Supremacy

Chapter 136: Advancing by Retreating


Saying goodbye to Tang Mo and the others, Wang Junze and Wang Xin continued deeper into this snowy plain.

Along the way, Wang Junze had been pondering over the matter of the relic.

The ice crystal is indeed an extremely unique resource, and it doesn't appear to have any drawbacks. On the contrary, it can significantly alleviate the pressure brought by this extreme cold. However, from another perspective, if this is a test, then alleviating the pressure by refining ice crystals, isn't this too simple?

Just like that ice sculpture, if one only sees the benefits of the ice crystal, it is easy to miss the opportunity hidden within.

Moreover, while it may seem that Wang Junze quickly discovered the Profound Level of the ice sculpture because he practiced Chess Swordsmanship, is it really that without practicing it, one cannot obtain the inheritance from within?

Not necessarily!

One must know, the ice sculpture itself is a Sword Technique of Chess Swordsmanship. If someone is willing to spend time feeling and pondering the Sword Techniques posed by the ice sculpture, they too might trigger the inheritance. After all, the trace of Sword Intent hidden within the ice sculpture is itself the inheritance.

Of course, all of this precondition assumes that one must have a high talent for Sword Dao; otherwise, for someone with mediocre aptitude, even if they gaze at the ice sculpture for eternity, they shouldn't dream of triggering the Sword Intent inheritance.

However, can the ice sculpture itself be directly shattered?

Boom!

Just as Wang Junze was contemplating these things, a massive rumble suddenly resounded from a distance, a terrifying aura erupted, clearly perceivable even from several miles away.

"Let's go!"

With a gleam in his eye, Wang Junze abruptly accelerated towards the direction from which the aura emanated.

In an instant, Wang Junze arrived at the scene of the incident, and just as he had guessed, there was indeed an ice sculpture here, and the huge rumble just now came from someone attempting to shatter the ice sculpture.

"Lin Tong?!"

With a slight raise of his eyebrows, Wang Junze recognized the identities of the people in front of the ice sculpture.

Lin Family!

Previously, when they noticed the restriction, many Refining God Powerhouses had already broken through and entered, including the Lin Family. It's worth noting that Lin Tong, the Patriarch of the Lin Family, is quite powerful in the Refining God Realm, and therefore tends to act more boldly.

"Wang Junze!"

Almost simultaneously, Lin Tong also noticed Wang Junze and Wang Xin's arrival, his eyelids twitched slightly, and a trace of gloom flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Although his decisive action earlier temporarily mitigated the threat posed by Wang Junze, regardless, the Lin Family still harbors little goodwill towards Wang Junze, and encountering him under these circumstances is naturally not a good thing for the Lin Family.

With a swift thought, Lin Tong stepped forward and solemnly said, "Wang Junze, this ice sculpture was discovered by my Lin Family first. By the rules, it should belong to my Lin Family."

His words were not polite, but also not overstepping, clearly intending to send him away.

From the standpoint of the Lin Family, there was nothing wrong with this. Although Luo Qingxuan and Su Yuwei both mentioned that Wang Junze would be responsible for planning and resource allocation, the unspoken rule is that the more effort one puts in, the more resources one gets. Before Wang Junze arrived, the Lin Family had already slaughtered the surrounding Ice Crystal Tigers and claimed the ice sculpture, so it's only natural that the spoils belong to them.

In fact, if it were any other resource, Wang Junze would surely yield.

But these ice sculptures are different, even at a glance, Wang Junze could easily identify that this ice sculpture corresponds to the second sword of Chess Swordsmanship, Laozi.

Most importantly, it was clear that Lin Tong had just made a move to shatter the ice sculpture, but had failed.

This means that the Sword Intent inheritance contained within the ice sculpture remains intact.

For this reason alone, Wang Junze could not easily give up.

After a slight pause, Wang Junze slowly said, "Patriarch Lin, don't worry, I'm not here to compete with you for the ice sculpture. However... from the aura just now, it seems that trying to shatter this ice sculpture to obtain the ice crystal isn't easy for you, Patriarch Lin?"

"This is a matter for my Lin Family, and none of your concern," Lin Tong again refused.

"It indeed has nothing to do with me, but if I rest here and absorb a bit of the Ice Crystal Power, surely Patriarch Lin won't refuse?" Shrugging his shoulders, Wang Junze casually said, "As for what you plan to do, feel free. I'd like to see what methods Patriarch Lin has to shatter this ice crystal."

After a pause, Wang Junze continued, "Of course, I guarantee that regardless of the outcome, I will not take a single ice crystal."
