THE LEGEND OF THE SWORD GOD

V1 #CH 9 — Xue Xianzi.

Heilong immediately got up and immediately left the inn when morning had arrived. He wanted to get to the Northern Continent immediately and begin his training there.

But before he continued on his way to the Northern Continent, he took the time to visit the sacred tomb first because he wanted to ascertain the truth of the story from the innkeeper.

After arriving there, Heilong saw the building of a tomb large enough. However, the area around the tomb is indeed covered by a protective field that is quite strong.

From outside the barrier, Heilong could clearly see the state inside.

Inside there are indeed some people who look rather creepy and try to get out of the tomb. But, the moment they touched the barrier, they would be thrown back inside.

They were all completely unable to get through the barrier, perhaps they were the robbers told by the innkeeper's servants.

Heilong tried to stretch out his hand to check the strength of the barrier.

The look on his face instantly changed, he was greatly shocked to learn that this protective field was made of extremely powerful lightning energy.

This lightning energy was not ordinary lightning energy. But this lightning energy was very similar to the lightning energy possessed by his Grandfather Emperor Long Jin.

"Maybe gold swordsman Qiu has a relationship with Grandfather. I will ask Grandpa this when I return home after my adventure in the Northern Continent is over" Heilong said.

Heilong then made a map depicting the location of this sacred tomb. After which, he immediately continued his journey towards the Northern Continent.

**

It had been three days for Heilong to travel and pass through several mountains and rivers. He has traveled more than half the way.

Finally he managed to pass through the border gate between the Eastern Continent and the Northern Continent and arrived at an extremely vast forest.

This forest is overgrown with some rare plants and part of the area is covered by snow.

This is the Northland Forest.

The forest that was the border between the Eastern Continent and the Northern Continent. Because of this, a part of this Forest was covered with snow.

Heilong then looked towards a large, shady tree in front of him and decided to rest for a while.

"From the map Father gave me, this forest is the border between the Eastern Continent region and the Northern Continent region. Means, I'm close to my destination" Heilong said, holding a map and looking at the area around the forest.

After resting for a few minutes, Heilong decided to continue his journey through this forest.

The sounds of various kinds of insects sounding out to each other causing this quiet forest to appear increasingly crowded.

Suddenly, Heilong heard a strange voice from within the forest.

Swing …

Heilong heard the voice of someone who was practicing sword techniques within this Forest. In fact, in this Forest there are so many wild animals that make this forest look very scary.

"It looks like there's someone else here" Heilong said as he continued to walk further into the forest.

In his heart, Heilong continued to wonder who was the one who dared to practice swordsmanship within this extremely desolate Forest. Moreover, this time was instead the day, the time for the Beasts to come out to forage.

Heilong hid behind the trees while looking at the vast grassland in the middle of the forest. It was fortunate that this was the night of the full moon, so he could make use of the moonlight to see.

He saw the figure of a girl standing in the moonlight. This girl has long black hair like mbak kunti.

Heilong's eyes continued to stare at the girl's face from a distance.

He also saw that the girl had a pair of very beautiful eyes. Everyone who saw the girl's eyes would definitely find it hard to turn their eyes elsewhere.

"Get out! I know that you've been peeking at my practice for a long time. You want to go out by yourself or I will come to you and force you out," the girl suddenly shouted while facing a large tree where Heilong was hiding.

"My name is Heilong, I got lost in this forest.”

Heilong finally came out of his hiding place and introduced himself because he did not want to make the girl misunderstand.

"You lied! Do you think I didn't know that you kept peeking at my practice. Don't-don't you want to steal the secret moves of my Sect,” reply that girl is cold.

The girl looked extremely furious once and directly inserted an extremely powerful ice energy into her right palm.

"Wait first! We can all talk about this well. At least give me a chance to explain everything,” Heilong said trying to stop the girl's anger.

The girl pulled back her ice energy, but she still continued to be wary of Heilong. While looking at Heilong, he then said. “Alright! Now tell me honestly, what exactly is the purpose of you peeking at my practice? If you dare to lie then I will kill you.”

"Well, I'll tell you the truth. I was actually heading to the Northern Continent for martial arts training and looking for a very powerful Beast. But, I got lost in this Forest and did not know the way to get out of this Forest. Actually I want to ask you how to get out of this Forest, but I saw you are seriously practicing so I decided to wait for your training until the new finish I will ask you,” explained Heilong.

"A very strong beast?! Why are you looking for such a powerful Beast," the girl continued asking.

"I want to find a very powerful Beast for me to make as my contract Beast" Heilong replied.

The girl looked even more surprised when she heard Heilong's reply. “Have you never heard that the Northern Continent is a very dangerous region. The temperature there is very cold. Not to mention there are so many Beasts that are very made because the Northern Continent is actually rarely visited by humans."

"I knew. Since I wanted to become stronger then I had to find a dangerous place to train. The more dangerous the place is, the purer the natural energy that is there" Heilong replied.

"Alright if that's what you want. I'll show you the way out of this forest. You walk straight, after walking for 30 kilometers you will see a way out of this forest. Then after that you go to the right," said the girl indicating the direction.

"Thank you. May I know your name?” heilong asked while thanking.

“My name is Xue Xianzi,” replied the girl.

“Xue Xianzi's. Very nice name. Then I say goodbye first to return to continue my journey,” said Heilong.

Heilong immediately turned around and continued on his way to leave this forest.

Far away on a remote island in the central region.

At the bottom of a ravine, a teleportation portal appeared and two human figures came out from that portal.

The two humans were Long Chen and Long Sha.

"Dad, are we really going to be safe here?" ask Long Chen.

"Keep assured that we will be safe here. This place is far from the territory of the Blue Dragon Kingdom Power," Long Sha replied.

"Why are you here! Have you completed the task I gave you?" An extremely terrifying voice emerged from the black-robed figure.

"Although Mister. Ii'm sorry. Because of my carelessness, I failed to carry out my duties" Long sha pleaded.

"How dare you come to this place to bring failure. I can't accept failure, I'll kill you right now" the black-robed figure exclaimed furiously.

"I'm sorry, sir. Give me one more chance, I guarantee I will not fail again" Long Sha pleaded once again.

"good. I'll give you a chance. But, if you fail again, never return to this place or you will feel the power of this dark flame of mine," the black-robed figure grinned.
