Gurulu!

Lin Baici’s stomach growled.

He was hungry, and the bronze sword floating in front of him seemed like a delicious dish, making his mouth water.

He wanted to eat.

Lin Baici took out a black carbon-coated survival folding knife from the pocket of his jeans, opened it, and cut his left index finger.

The knife was purchased online by Lin Baici immediately after he received a 30,000 yuan prize. It came from a famous outdoor brand and cost him a whopping 1,600 yuan.

Lin Baici used to watch Bear Grylls’ survival show and saw Bear Grylls eating his way through the entire tropical rainforest, desert, jungle, and islands with just a survival knife…

He thought it was cool and wanted to get a survival knife, but it was too expensive.

Now that he had money and was going to explore God’s Ruins, he naturally prepared one.

The survival knife was very sharp, and red blood immediately flowed out.

When the girl just now, Feng Yi, and Xia Hongyao used blood as a sacrifice, the bronze sword had no reaction and allowed the blood to drip onto the ground. But this time, it suddenly jumped forward and caught the blood dripping from Lin Baici’s finger.

Pata! Pata!

The crimson blood dripped onto the dark golden engraved blade and seeped in.

[This time, I’ll let it go cheap. Let it taste your favor.]

Suddenly, the bronze sword shook, and the tip of the sword stabbed towards Lin Baici’s left hand.

Lin Baici immediately retracted his hand, and at the same time, the hidden clay figurines in the dark also launched an attack.

Three cherry-sized flying stones shot towards them with great speed and accurately hit the blade.

Papa! Papa! Papa!

The blade was opened.

“What’s going on?”

Hua Yueyu became anxious.

Xia Hongyao held a short knife and immediately protected Lin Baici in front of her. “Xiaolin, quickly tell us a dark history!”

She thought Lin Baici was speaking too slowly, which attracted the attack.

“It has nothing to do with this!”

Lin Baici calculated the time. This bronze sword named Dragon Tooth was still patient, giving everyone more than ten seconds to organize their words. But when it came to him, it would only give him seven or eight seconds at most.

“It seems like there’s going to be another fight!”

Lin Baici held a torch made of pine wood and lit it on the ground.

“Let me do it!”

Xia Hongyao planned to go back and give Lin Baici some combat training. Otherwise, he would have a good physique but couldn’t fully exert his power.

Lin Baici glanced at Xia Hongyao. He was quite moved that a girl was willing to risk her life for him.

Seeing that a battle was about to break out, everyone instinctively stepped back.

After all, the sword could fly and its speed was fast. If they stood too close, they might be affected.

However, the bronze sword did not attack again. Its previous reaction was like it had tasted a delicacy and couldn’t help but take a bite, wanting another taste.

Rest! Rest! Rest!

The bronze sword danced and rushed to a spot three meters in front of Lin Baici, then immediately moved away. It repeated this three times.

“What is it doing? Going crazy?”

Guo Zheng didn’t understand. If it wanted to kill, it should do it quickly. Why was it dragging on?

“Why do I feel like it’s trying to attract everyone’s attention to you?”

Hua Yueyu guessed. As a female anchor, she was more sensitive to these things.

Sure enough, the next second, a voice sounded.

“My name is Lin Baici, 18 years old, a divine hunter. I like girls who resemble Xiong Da. If they wear high heels, I like +1!”

This voice was gender-neutral, neither male nor female, because it came from the bronze sword.

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

What does it mean?

Why is it that everyone else is self-exploding their embarrassing secrets, but when it comes to you, the bronze sword is the one revealing your dark history?

“…”

Lin Baici was speechless and felt a bit embarrassed.

Damn it!

Do you know that you’re making me die of embarrassment?

“…”

Hua Yueyu’s mouth formed an “O” shape, looking shocked, and instinctively lowered her head.

Damn it!

I can see my toes.

Little fish is going to be furious.

Look down on our steel girls, huh?

When I go back, I’ll start drinking milk and eating papaya every day. I don’t believe I can’t grow.

“No need to be depressed, I understand!”

Xia Hongyao said, comforting Lin Baici by patting his shoulder.

No, what do you understand?

This time, Lin Baici truly experienced the power of this “Sword of Dark History.”

It might not kill you, but it could make you feel worse than death.

[It likes your blood, but your dark history doesn’t satisfy it. It hopes that in the future, you will do something that will make you die of embarrassment when spoken out!]

Lin Baici frowned, “Why does it like my blood?”

The Food God didn’t answer.

“Since it likes my blood, can it become my sword?”

After Lin Baici finished speaking, without waiting for the Food God’s reply, he suddenly activated it and rushed out, grabbing the hilt.

The bronze sword trembled, as if it wanted to fly away, but in the end, it didn’t move.

Pata!

Lin Baici grabbed the hilt, and it felt slightly warm in his hand, like holding a hand warmer.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Lin Baici swung the sword a few times, feeling good in his hand. The balance between the tip and the body of the sword made it suitable for both stabbing and slashing.The golden patterns on the blade are very beautiful.

Even someone who doesn’t understand antique appreciation can tell that it is a good thing. It may not be a national treasure, but it’s close. It can’t be bought without a billion.

“Is this okay?”

Guo Zheng was surprised to see Lin Baici holding the bronze sword. It felt like he had just drunk a bellyful of lemonade and was sour to death.

Damn it!

I should have exposed his dark history earlier.

“Unfortunately, we don’t have a black coffin. Otherwise, if we seal it, its danger level will decrease and it can be used as a weapon!”

Xia Hongyao regretted.

In the eyes of Guo Zheng and Xia Hongyao, the contamination of the bronze sword seemed to have ended, so Lin Baici was able to easily obtain it.

That’s how divine taboos are. They are extremely terrifying when they release contamination, killing people who enter, even gods. But once it ends, they become no different from ordinary objects.

Even experienced divine hunters find it difficult to find them when divine taboos are not contaminating.

“Don’t we have a scabbard or something?”

Lin Baici felt the blade and found it very sharp.

As for the black coffin seal mentioned by Xia Hongyao, Lin Baici wasn’t worried. Based on the example of the pine torch, even if he used a divine taboo that wasn’t sealed, it seemed that he wouldn’t be contaminated.

“Let’s go back and find someone to customize a scabbard!”

One of Hua Yueyu’s friends likes to collect knives and swords.

“Okay!”

Now Lin Baici had a torch in his left hand and a sword in his right hand. It seemed like an equipment upgrade, but to be honest, it was inconvenient. He had to free up one hand for emergencies.

He put the torch in the black altar bowl, but it wasn’t convenient to use. If he asked Hua Yueyu to hold it for him, she might be contaminated by the rules and suddenly burn someone or herself.

After some hesitation, Lin Baici decided to temporarily put away the pine torch.

“Lin Shen, is it safe now?”

Tang Zhiqian came over and looked at the bronze sword in Lin Baici’s hand, his eyes filled with envy.

Although he didn’t know how precious it was, being guarded by such a powerful iron-armored sword slave meant it was definitely a good thing.

Lü Yingxi felt regretful. If she had been bolder and exposed her dark history earlier, she might have had a chance to get this sword.

“Lin Shen, can we leave now?”

Gu Rongjie wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. The bodies of He Zhongkun and the others lying on the ground were very disturbing, and the strong smell of blood was nauseating.

“We can leave!”

After obtaining the bronze sword named ‘Dragon Tooth’, Lin Baici felt slightly satisfied, but he was still a bit hungry.

As long as he was hungry, his hunger radar would activate.

After carefully sensing it, Lin Baici pointed to the 10 o’clock direction: “Let’s go this way!”

“Shouldn’t we thank Lin Shen for saving our lives?”

Fu Jinlin shouted, taking the initiative to praise Lin Baici. This was his way of trying to survive.

Otherwise, what could he do?

As a middle-aged bald man, although he had a lot of money, He Zhongkun, who was much richer than him, was still ignored by Lin Baici.

He couldn’t conquer the God’s Ruins, not in this lifetime.

He could only flatter him, do some dirty work that he couldn’t do or didn’t want to do, in order to seek protection and maintain his way of life.

Upon hearing this, everyone began to thank Lin Baici.

“Thank you, Lin Shen!”

“Lin Shen, do you need any accessories on your leg? I have a decent appearance and can be a mascot!”

“Lin Shen, after we escape from this God’s Ruins, I will arrange a grand banquet!”

Everyone chattered, shouting the name ‘Lin Shen’ with satisfaction.

“Stop talking and save your energy!”

Lin Baici didn’t care about these thanks. He just helped everyone when he purified the contamination of the rules.

Xia Hongyao counted and found that there were a total of seventy-five people, including Tang Zhiqian, Lü Yingxi, Gu Rongjie, and the scattered individuals like Fu Jinlin.

Most of them were women, mostly from Gu Rongjie’s entertainment company and students from Haijing Drama Academy.

At this moment, the ones who felt qualified to walk beside Lin Baici were the first group led by Tang Zhiqian, and Gu Rongjie gave a signal to her artists to please Lin Baici and squeeze their way to his side.

“Lin Shen, can you tell us in detail what we need to pay special attention to in the God’s Ruins?”

Gu Rongjie pleaded, with a charming smile on her face, full of flattery.

Tang Zhiqian couldn’t help but sneak a few glances, his gaze unconsciously sliding down to Gu Rongjie’s legs.

She was wearing flesh-colored stockings!

Impressive.

“I’m also a newcomer and have no experience.”

Lin Baici spoke honestly.

Guo Zheng heard this and sneered, full of disdain.

I don’t believe you!

I’ve only seen this calm attitude on those violent bear-level divine hunters in the Jiulong Pavilion.

Gu Rongjie also didn’t believe it. Compared to the somewhat panicked Guo Zheng, Lin Baici was as stable as an old dog.

Oh, and that Xiong Da, the girl with her black hair tied up in a high ponytail, was also calm, but her calmness was more of ignorance and fearlessness, not like Lin Baici’s calmness.

“It’s useless to tell you anything. Just do as we say!”

Guo Zheng used these people as cannon fodder and didn’t care about their lives. He was about to chat with Lin Baici when he heard a roar from him.

“Get down!”

Lin Baici shouted loudly, exerting force with his left hand to push Xia Hongyao away, while his body rushed to the right, carrying Hua Yueyu and pounced out.

Tang Zhiqian, Lv Yingxi, and Liu Liu were all on this side and were knocked over by Lin Baici.

Some people didn’t react, while others reacted extremely quickly, like Fu Jinlin. In the instant Lin Baici shouted, he covered his head with both hands and crawled towards the ground.

Bang!

Fu Jinlin’s huge weight caused the dust to fly.

Swish!

The sword slave’s large wooden sword was thrown and passed through the crowd, directly cutting off the bodies of about ten unlucky people.

The blood sprayed from their bodies was like blooming beautiful roses.

Ah! Ah! Ah!

Screams filled the air, and several girls who didn’t die immediately fell to the ground wailing.

Puff!

The large sword passed through the crowd and flew more than thirty meters before embedding into the ground.

“What’s going on?”

Fu Jinlin was shocked and turned his head to look at the sword slave.

It was standing up from the ground.

“We’ve finished the sacrifice, haven’t we? You even obtained the King’s Sword. Why is it still attacking us?”

Guo Zheng didn’t understand.

According to reason, the rule contamination should have ended.

Whoosh!

The survivors who were lucky enough not to be hit by the large sword hurriedly hid behind Lin Baici as if they were being chased by evil spirits.

“Eleven dead, four injured!”

Xia Hongyao glanced over and saw that the injuries of the four were too severe. With the current first aid conditions, they had no chance of survival.

“What do you want?”

Lin Baici stared directly at the sword slave.

Although he had obtained the Dragon Tooth, he had never let his guard down and secretly monitored the sword slave. Sure enough, when everyone thought it was safe and relaxed, it made a move, grabbing the large sword inserted by its side and throwing it.

Lin Baici’s shout was already timely, but the speed at which the sword slave threw the large sword was too fast for everyone to react.

The sword slave, standing up, looked down on these barbarians with disdain.

“Put down the King’s Sword, and I will allow you to leave!”

The sword slave spoke, with a bit more confidence and dominance than when it was still a slave.

“What’s going on? Why do I feel like this monster has self-awareness?”

Guo Zheng was astonished.

Xia Hongyao frowned and recalled the information she had read, looking for similar examples.

“What if I don’t?”

Lin Baici provocatively twirled a sword flower.

The sword slave, with its ugly face, grinned and suddenly charged.

Whoosh!

The sound of chains.

Ah!

Everyone was shocked and panicked, but soon they realized that the sword slave was not attacking them, but appeared next to its large sword and pulled it out of the ground.

The sword slave held it in its right hand, holding the extremely sharp and shiny large sword horizontally in front of its chest. Then, it extended the index and middle fingers of its left hand and slowly slid them across the blade.

Its movements were gentle, as if caressing the black hair of a lover.

“I want to know if your neck can withstand the sharpness of my sword.”

The sword slave smiled and asked, then made a sudden slash!

Whoosh!

The thick iron chain tied to its ankle was cut off. This casual and calm posture made everyone even more panicked.

A thousand kills,

Invincible general,

Nothing more!

The sword slave enjoyed the terrified expressions of these barbarians. It suddenly thought of what it could do, which was to conquer this barbarian tribe.

“Do you think you’re worthy?”

Lin Baici sneered.

“If you can take it, so can I!”

After Xia Hongyao removed the scalp with the word “slave” engraved on the sword slave’s forehead, it had actually regained its freedom. It didn’t leave but continued to kneel in front of the stone tablet.

Apart from confusion about the future, it was more about reverence for the King’s Sword.

To serve the king, obey the king, had already become its instinct engraved in its bones. So it continued to kneel there, guarding the King’s Sword according to the king’s orders.

But now, this barbarian man took away the King’s Sword…

When the sword slave saw this scene, the supreme image of the king’s authority in its heart collapsed.

Since a barbarian can take it, why can’t I?

“Hehe!”

Lin Baici laughed, looked at the Dragon Tooth in his hand, and said, “I’ll say it again. People leave, the sword stays, otherwise…”

The sword slave’s majestic gaze swept over everyone, disdainfully saying, “Die!”

Everyone looked nervously at Lin Baici. Now their lives were in his hands.

Fu Jinlin wanted to persuade Lin Baici to give up this bronze sword. After all, staying alive was the most important thing. In fact, this was the idea of most people.

There was no need to fight to the death with such a terrifying monster for a sword.

“Alright!”

Lin Baici casually threw out the Dragon Tooth. He smiled, revealing his eight white teeth, shining like the sun.

“Huh?”

Xia Hongyao was originally prepared for a battle. Hearing this, she was surprised. Wasn’t Little Lin a person with a weak personality?

Then, in the next moment, she saw the Dragon Tooth leave Lin Baici’s hand and turn into a dark golden light, heading straight for the sword slave.The sword slave swung his sword, aiming to cut off the dragon’s tooth and take it down. However, the flying sword made a “ding” sound and cut off the big sword, then pierced through the chest of the sword slave.

“Rest!”

The flying sword did not make a follow-up attack. After killing the sword slave, it flew back to Lin Baici.

“How was it?”

Lin Baici asked with a smile. With a snap, he reached out and grabbed the hilt of the sword, forming a beautiful sword flower.

The sword slave looked at the king sword in Lin Baici’s hand, then lowered his head to look at the hole in his chest. Suddenly, it roared in unwillingness.

Ah!

The sword slave tried to charge forward and kill this barbarian man, but its body began to disintegrate.

Crash! Crash! Crash!

When the sword slave took the third step, its whole body shattered and turned into a black dust, falling in the air.

Snap!

A walnut-sized stone fell into the dust.

“Meteorite?”

Xia Hongyao had very good eyesight and saw the meteorite, so she rushed out immediately.

Guo Zheng also saw it.

The stone was a dull blue color, round in shape, covered with strange patterns, and exuded a magnificent light. It was a meteorite full of divine power.

This was the most precious spoils in the God’s Ruins, recognized by hunters from all countries in the Divine Hunter Circle.

Guo Zheng swallowed his saliva and suppressed the urge to snatch it.

There was no way, he couldn’t beat the guy next to him!

Guo Zheng looked at Lin Baici and couldn’t help but focus on the bronze sword in his hand.

He didn’t expect this sword to be so powerful!

When Guo Zheng saw Lin Baici obtain this king sword earlier, he thought he had just obtained a divine taboo, so he was only sour from drinking a few sips of lemonade.

But now, seeing the power of the king sword, he felt like he was being drowned in a lake full of lemonade by several burly men.

He was envious and jealous!

Everyone had similar expressions. They originally thought there would be a fierce battle, but they didn’t expect the terrifying sword slave to be killed instantly by Lin Baici!

This was too cool, right?

“I’m willing to exchange my whole life for this sword to belong to me!”

Tang Zhiqian was envious. If he had this sword, he should also be able to become a powerful Divine Hunter, right?

Lv Yingxi’s fingers trembled. She thought about the heroic figure she would have when she held this sword.

Wet!

Hua Yueyu looked at the expressions of these people and felt very satisfied.

Did you see that?

My little Bai is so powerful!

“Xiaolin, here!”

Xia Hongyao came back and handed the meteorite to Lin Baici. “Your spoils of war!”

“Thank you!”

Lin Baici didn’t hesitate and reached out to take it.

He was feeling increasingly hungry and uncomfortable. If there weren’t so many people around, he would have eaten the meteorite directly.

Xia Hongyao and Jin Yingzhen had both mentioned that the meteorite could only be used after being refined through special techniques. If it was eaten directly, even Divine Hunters would be contaminated by radiation and turn into monsters.

So Lin Baici couldn’t reveal his big secret of being able to eat meteorites.

“That monster is dead. Is it finally over?”

Liu Liu was very scared. The big sword just shot past her and cut off her classmate’s head and half of his shoulder.

The splattered blood landed on her face and body, soaking her chiffon shirt.

“It’s over!”

Lin Baici walked towards the sword pavilion.

Because the sword slave didn’t die earlier, Lin Baici took the king sword and left without thinking about cleaning up the battlefield. Now he could collect some spoils of war.

Guo Zheng had already run towards the yurt-shaped sword pavilion, hoping to see if there were any bronze swords inside.

Unfortunately, it was empty.

Beside the sword pavilion, Lin Baici saw some bronze knife coins on the ground, engraved with patterns and what seemed to be numbers.

“Go pick up the knife coins and collect them to give to Lin Shen!”

Fu Jinlin urged.

Although no one wanted to be ordered by Fu Jinlin, most of them wanted to please Lin Baici, so many people started squatting down to collect these bronze knife coins.

“Zhou Ya, what are you doing?”

Du Xin saw Zhou Ya also picking up things and was furious. “You know Lin Xuedi, that’s a natural advantage. You should go talk to him and build a relationship.”

If it weren’t for me losing face in front of Lin Baici and not being able to speak, would I need to bring you along?

I can make him like me all by myself!

Zhou Ya didn’t want to go. She felt embarrassed. She didn’t want this junior to think she was a shallow and vulgar girl who would do anything to achieve her goals.

To be honest, when Zhou Ya saw Lin Baici at the underground elevator entrance in Palm Port earlier, she felt very embarrassed, especially today when she was wearing a short skirt and black stockings, and had makeup on. It was obvious that she wanted to use her looks and body to achieve certain goals.

“Forget it!”

Du Xin was helpless. People were about to die, so why care about a little face?

“This bronze sword is quite powerful!”

Xia Hongyao exclaimed, “Its attack method is to kill enemies with flying swords, right?”

“Using it like this consumes a lot of divine power!”

Lin Baici had just thrown the king sword and killed the sword slave, making it look easy and effortless. But in reality, this move had drained a lot of his divine power.

He now felt somewhat tired and weak, as if he had been drained.

“Use it sparingly!”

Xia Hongyao suggested.

“Alright!”

Lin Baici decided to treat this move as his trump card, not to be used lightly.

“I think I understand why that sword slave monster continued to attack us even after the rules were polluted!”

Xia Hongyao lowered her voice.

“Why?”

Guo Zheng also leaned in, curious.
