Black wood forest IV - Sword Legacy
The air was electric with tension as Lin Tian faced off against the Golden Winged Bird. The bird's eyes blazed with fury, its feathers ruffled and its wings spread wide. Lin Tian, meanwhile, stood calm and collected, his eyes fixed intently on his opponent.
The battle began with a burst of speed, the bird shooting towards Lin Tian like a golden arrow. Lin Tian raised his hand, and a shimmering Void Shield erupted into existence, protecting him from the bird's attack. The shield rippled and distorted as the bird's talons scraped against it, but it held firm, unyielding to the bird's fury.
Undeterred, the bird launched a barrage of attacks, its wings beating rapidly as it generated powerful gusts of wind. Lin Tian stood firm, his Void Shield absorbing and deflecting the attacks. But he didn't just defend - he counterattacked, unleashing his powerful skill, Void Cutter.
The Void Cutter sliced through the air like a razor-sharp blade, its power amplified by Lin Tian's cultivation. The bird dodged the attack by a hair's breadth, but Lin Tian was relentless, pursuing his opponent with a flurry of Void Cutters that ripped through the air and shredded the surrounding landscape.
Lin Tian's Void Eye glowed with an otherworldly energy, allowing him to see through the bird's attacks and anticipate its every move. He used this advantage to devastating effect, landing a series of precise and powerful Void Cutters that sent the bird stumbling back.
The bird retaliated with a blast of golden energy, but Lin Tian was ready for it. He unleashed a Spatial Leap, teleporting himself behind the bird and avoiding the attack by a fraction of a second.
As the bird turned to face him, Lin Tian seized the opportunity to strike. He unleashed a devastating Void Cutter that sliced through the bird's defenses and bit deep into its body. The bird let out a deafening screech as it stumbled backwards, its wings beating wildly as it tried to stay aloft.
But it was too late. Lin Tian's Void Cutter had done its work, and the bird's body began to dissolve into nothingness. The air was filled with the sound of its dying screeches, and the ground shook beneath their feet as the bird's body hit the ground.
As the dust settled, Lin Tian stood victorious, his chest heaving with exertion. The landscape around him was scarred and battered, the rocks and trees shattered and broken. But Lin Tian didn't care - he had emerged victorious, and that was all that mattered.
Ding!
The system notification rang out, congratulating Lin Tian on his victory.
"Congratulations, host, on killing a Core Formation stage Golden Winged Bird! You have earned 10,000 system points!"
Lin Tian couldn't help but smile as he stood victorious over the Golden Winged Bird's lifeless body. He felt a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment wash over him, knowing that he had defeated a powerful Core Formation stage beast.
Just as he was about to catch his breath, Lin Tian heard a rustling in the bushes. He turned to see the two beasts he had sent to look for herbs and spiritual stones returning to him. The tiger, in particular, looked proud of itself, its eyes gleaming with a sense of accomplishment.
"Well done, my pets," Lin Tian praised, scratching the tiger behind the ears. "You've done an excellent job in finding those herbs and spiritual stones."
The tiger purred contentedly, nuzzling Lin Tian's hand. The other beast, a large and majestic stag, nodded its great antlered head in appreciation.
With his pets by his side, Lin Tian ventured deeper into the cave. As they walked, the tiger told Lin Tian about the other beasts that lived within the cave. Lin Tian listened intently, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
Over the next seven hours, Lin Tian and his pets explored the depths of the cave, killing any beast that stood in their way. They also collected a vast array of spiritual herbs and stones, each one glowing with a soft, ethereal light.
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, Lin Tian came upon a massive, enormous door. The door was adorned with intricate sword slashes and carvings, each one telling a story of ancient battles and forgotten heroes.
Lin Tian's eyes widened in awe as he gazed upon the door. He could feel a powerful energy emanating from it, an energy that seemed to be calling to him.
Without hesitation, Lin Tian reached out and touched the door. As he did, the sword slashes and carvings began to glow with a soft, blue light.
Suddenly, the door creaked open, revealing a hidden chamber beyond.
Lin Tian's eyes gleamed with excitement as he stepped forward, ready to face whatever lay within.
As Lin Tian stepped into the hidden chamber, his eyes widened in awe at the sight before him. Standing tall and proud, a massive sword-like relic dominated the space, its presence seeming to fill the entire room. The relic was enormous, easily large enough to cover the wide space, and its tip seemed to touch the top of the chamber.
The relic itself was a marvel of ancient craftsmanship, with intricate sword carvings engraved along its length. The carvings seemed to dance across the surface of the relic, telling a story of battles long past and heroes forgotten. The entire structure exuded an ancient, mystical energy that seemed to reverberate deep within Lin Tian's soul.
Lin Tian stood transfixed, his eyes drinking in the splendor of the relic. He felt as though he had stumbled into a sacred place, one where the very fabric of history seemed to vibrate with power.
Just as he was about to reach out and touch the relic, the system notification rang out, its voice piercing the silence of the chamber.
"Ding! Host, it has been detected that the Legacy of the Sword Sovereign is contained within the sword relic structure. Mission: Touch the sword relic and extract the Sword Sovereign's inheritance."
Lin Tian's heart skipped a beat as he heard the notification. He felt a surge of excitement and trepidation, knowing that the legacy of the Sword Sovereign was within his grasp. With a deep breath, he reached out and touched the sword relic, ready to unlock the secrets that lay within.
