Online game: Only I can see the hidden information

Ye Bai sized up the man in front of him.

The man was disheveled, like a prisoner in an ancient death row cell, with long hair falling down and his face full of shadows.

He was also sizing up Ye Bai, trying to see something in him.

"This sword..."

The man's gaze fell on the Heavenly King Sword at Ye Bai's waist, and his expression tightened.

"I recognize this sword."

Ye Bai's expression froze.

This NPC, who calls himself a "sinner," actually knows the Heavenly King Sword?

There were some things Ye Bai didn't understand about the origin of the Heavenly King Sword.

According to what Ninth Master said back then,

When Wuhen entered the Eternal Forest, the Heavenly King Sword was already there.

The Heavenly King Sword was at least the weapon used by the God of War.

There are not many known war gods among the human race.

The top experts from an era before Second Brother were Ninth Master and his group!

Who exactly is the owner of the Heavenly King Sword?

Ye Bai has never had an answer to this question.

"Of course, it's possible that Ninth Master lied to me again..."

Ye Bai couldn't help but roll his eyes inwardly.

That old liar, Ninth Master, never tells the truth.

Fortunately, as Ye Bai's strength continued to grow, he came into contact with more and more information.

The more flaws there are in the lies that Ninth Master weaves, the bigger the loopholes become.

Ye Bai picked up the Heavenly King Sword and asked,

"Do you know the origin of this sword?"

"right."

The man made no attempt to hide anything and spoke frankly.

"This sword was taken by your eldest brother; it was on this floor, didn't you know?"

Ye Bai, showing no embarrassment whatsoever, nodded and said...

"My older brother prefers me to explore on my own, and continues the story from the point of picking up the sword."

With the Heavenly King Sword as evidence, the man's attitude towards Ye Bai improved considerably.

Although this person doesn't seem very reliable.

However, most of them are chosen by fate.

The man recalled,

"Your older brother said he's taking this sword out to give to a friend..."

friend?

Ye Bai fell silent. Why didn't he recognize which of his elder brother's friends?

Is it Lan Zhexian?

Lan Zhexian is definitely a master swordsman.

But Old Man Lan is still full of energy and jumping around.

If the Heavenly King Sword had truly once been in his hands, he wouldn't have returned it to the Eternal Forest.

Lan Zhexian is a sword enthusiast; he wouldn't waste something like that.

The man frowned, pondered for a moment, and added,

"Your older brother mentioned that friend's surname seems to be Xue."

hiss--

All the cold air was sucked back in.

In an instant, Ye Bai felt a chill run down his spine.

This time it's really numb!

Surname Xue, a contemporary of Nightmare, who else could it be?

Big Mengzi's biological father!

A somewhat clear timeline slowly unfolded before Ye Bai's eyes:

A hundred years ago, Nightmare took the Heavenly King Sword from the twenty-third floor and gave it to Xue Meng's biological father.

Under the combined influence of the era of supreme power and the invasion of the demon race, Xue Meng's father's strength advanced by leaps and bounds, eventually achieving the position of the God of War.

He is most likely one of the earliest and most powerful war gods of the human race!

This achievement is incredibly impressive!

The Nightmare generation of powerful figures were like a constellation of stars, and countless others resembled protagonist archetypes.

Nightmare, Ninth Master, Madman Huo, Xue Meng's biological father, Lan Zhexian, Lan Tianqi...

Even someone as powerful as Lan Zhexian couldn't break through to the Heavenly War God level.

This shows just how difficult it is to become the God of War!

Strength, talent, opportunity, and so on—all are indispensable!

Every being who breaks through to the level of a Heavenly War God is one of the strongest individuals in the human race.

As far as Ye Bai knew, besides Nightmare, there were only three other Gods of War in that generation:

Ninth Master, Madman Huo, Xue Meng's biological father.

Ironically, these three individuals have all met with unfortunate ends.

Ninth Master is half-dead, Madman Huo is living a life worse than death, and Xue Meng's biological father's fate is unknown.

"In other words, among these three, Xue Meng's biological father was the first to break through, and he's at the forefront..."

Ye Bai pondered.

The generation of Ninth Master was always led by the strongest.

Da Mengzi's biological father went missing, and it wasn't just the Great Demon God who was pulling the strings.

More importantly, Xue Meng's biological father must accompany Nightmare to protect those behind him.

"That is why the Heavenly King Sword ended up in the Eternal Forest."

I understand now, I understand everything.

Tianwangjian wanted to return to the world and took the initiative to appear in front of Wuhen, but was rejected.

Xue Meng repeatedly ventured into the Eternal Forest, attempting to take away the Heavenly King Sword, but each time he returned empty-handed.

Besides wanting to use a sword, there was another reason:

This sword was a keepsake from his own father...

Ye Bai looked down at the Heavenly King Sword and suddenly felt that the plot was getting even more melodramatic.

Now that this sword is in my hands, won't it be a waste of my talents?

Just as Ye Bai was thinking this, the Heavenly King Sword emitted a sword cry, extremely arrogant.

Ye Bai understood.

It wasn't that he chose the Heavenly King Sword, but rather... the Heavenly King Sword chose him!

In the Eternal Forest, Ye Bai took the Nightmare's Cloak instead of the Heavenly King Sword.

The Heavenly King Sword was very dissatisfied with this.

This dissatisfaction was clearly conveyed to Xiaoyao.

That's why Xiaoyao later intervened, making an exception and allowing each person to take two pieces of equipment.

The Heavenly King Sword was forcibly shoved into Ye Bai's arms.

Only by staying by Ye Bai's side could the Heavenly King Sword have a chance to strike the most powerful demon god.

Having understood the cause and effect, Ye Bai spoke to comfort him.

"It's okay, just kill him."

Ye Bai promised,

"I'll definitely use you to finish off the last blow!"

The Heavenly King Sword nodded in satisfaction and returned to its calm state.

Ye Bai has truly mastered the art of making empty promises.

From the Blue Immortal and the Heavenly King Sword to Dracula and Cerberus,

Ye Bai can draw a pie in the sky as big and round as possible, with perfect control over it.

The matter of the Heavenly King Sword has come to an end.

Ye Bai looked at the man and continued to ask about matters related to the River Styx.

"Since you possess this sword, it's quite possible for you to purify the River Styx..."

The Heavenly King Sword is an indispensable part of the process of purifying the River Styx.

The man hesitated for a moment before introducing himself.

"This River Styx is merely a projection of the power of the god of the underworld. I fooled the god of death back then, and this is my punishment."

The monsters inside are incredibly powerful, and the final gatekeeper is even a subordinate of the God of the Underworld, exceeding level 900...

Through the man's introduction, Ye Bai learned about...

This heart-shaped stone was left by the Nightmare to stop the pursuers from the River Styx.

Later, Wuhen arrived.

Looking at the Styx River behind the stone, Wuhen unleashed a sword strike, blocking all the pursuers from reaching him.

This is equivalent to having double insurance.

After listening to the man's description, Ye Bai nodded thoughtfully.

"Okay, I understand the situation pretty well."

"Once you enter the River Styx, you must eliminate all the monsters within 45 minutes to achieve complete purification, right?"

"right."

After receiving a positive reply, Ye Bai walked forward.

The strongest monster is only level 900, so Ye Bai has nothing to worry about.

If all else fails, he can summon that old sea god to take the bullet for him.

As long as Ye Bai is willing to do something, there are always more solutions than problems!

If there's really no other way, then exploit the bug. There's nothing to be afraid of!

"etc!"

The man called out to Ye Bai, hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to ask.

"Doing this will do you no good, and I have nothing to repay you with, nor does it mean anything..."

There is the Nightmare Stone, and the Unmarked Sword suppressing it.

In fact,

Whether the River Styx is purified or not is no longer important.

The man didn't understand why the other person was doing this.

If something has no meaning from the beginning, why do it?

"Reward? Significance?"

Ye Bai said with righteous indignation,

"If you have to pay for doing good deeds, what kind of good deeds are you?!"

I am just a good Samaritan named Shura who helps those in need without leaving his name!

I wanted to do it, so I did it. Why bother with all that other unnecessary stuff?

After saying that, Ye Bai added,

"Once I've purified the River Styx, will this stone be useless?"

The man was taken aback; he couldn't quite keep up with Shura's pace.

Isn't this topic a bit too abruptly changed?

Weren't we talking about the River Styx? Why are we talking about stones again?

The man nodded. "It's no use."

Nightmare left this stone to stop the pursuers from the River Styx.

Once the River Styx is purified, the stones will naturally become useless.

"That's great."

Ye Bai said in a very serious tone,

"Once I purify the River Styx, it wouldn't be unreasonable for me to take this stone with me, would it?"

The man looked bewildered.

"Sure, but what do you need the stones for?"

Are you going to push it around for fun?

Ye Bai explained,

"Take it back and ask Jiu... cough cough, I mean, take it back to ward off evil spirits!"

The man was even more confused.

No matter how big or ominous your house is, you need to put such an ugly thing there to ward it off.

and also,

Does this thing really ward off evil spirits and protect the house?

Regardless of the other party's reaction, Ye Bai charged forward without hesitation.

Dark history of nightmares?

I'll just bring out my dark history!

Ye Bai was going all out to fleece Ninth Master.

Brave Asura, unafraid of difficulties!

Go for it!
