Daily Intelligence: Start by Obtaining the Sword Saint's Legacy

133: Do not move around here.”Since you two have so graciously invited me, then I, Lu, shall respectfully obey!”

”However, we only know the general direction of where the Sword Saint fell, not the specific location. I wonder if you two...”

Facing his probing words,

Zhao Yan saw through it instantly, but he did not say it. Instead, he said with a wry smile, ”Brother Lu may not know, but we in the Heavenly Sword Sect also came in blind; we only know this direction. As for the specific location, we have no idea either.”

Just then, Chen Xian slapped his thigh.

”You guys don’t know, but I do!”

With a thought,

A scroll appeared before everyone.

Chen Xian slowly opened it.

This time, Zhao Yan, Lu Tianchen, and the others couldn’t take their eyes off it after just one look.

For no other reason than this:

The map on this scroll was none other than the Shanhai Map!

Every mountain range and every river on it was marked in extreme detail.

Zhao Yan and Lu Tianchen’s breathing grew heavy.

”Marquis of Jubei, where did you get this map?”

”Oh, just a little trinket from the Prince’s Mansion. I thought it was just a random drawing, but I didn’t expect it to be real!”

Chen Xian told a white lie.

This made everyone feel it was both reasonable and unreasonable.

What was reasonable was that the Marquis Jubeis Residence actually had such a map.

If the markings were all true, selling it would definitely fetch an astronomical price.

What was unreasonable was that countless experts had met their end in the Shanhai Secret Realm.

Yet the Marquis of Jubei could understand this place so thoroughly.

It was simply too incredible.

Especially for Zhao Yan and Lu Tianchen; knowing the general direction of Thunder Roar Sword Saint’s fall had already cost their Sect and Family a huge price.

After all, in an era where information is king, mastering this was equivalent to mastering half of one’s strength!

But none of them expected...

Chen Xian actually knew it so easily.

Lu Tianchen felt incredibly lucky in his heart.

Fortunately, he hadn’t left first or parted ways with them.

If that were the case, who knows how much hardship their Lu Family would have suffered!

It was better to travel with them now.

As for the end, after killing the second generation ancestor in front of them, their Lu Family could keep this map for themselves.

Wouldn’t that be wonderful?

Actually, Zhao Yan had the same idea at this moment.

He also felt lucky he hadn’t killed Chen Xian earlier.

Otherwise, where would they have learned about this map?

Chen Xian put away the map.

Pointing to the road ahead,

”Alright, let’s set off!”

This time, the team became even larger.

Chen Xian walked in the middle with Zhou Duoer.

Pei Ning and the others surrounded him.

Not just them, but the Heavenly Sword Sect and the Lu Family were also in front and behind.

Their eyes were fixed on Chen Xian.

The importance of this kid now...

Was comparable to the place where Thunder Roar Sword Saint fell!

After a full few hours,

Everyone followed the map to a lake.

This was very different from an ordinary lake.

Not only was it barren of any vegetation, but it was also filled with lightning.

”This is the place where Thunder Roar Sword Saint fell—the Thunder Pool!”

”Legend has it that the Thunder Pool contains countless bolts of lightning. Seeing it today, it truly lives up to its reputation.”

Even from a hundred meters away, they could feel the waves of power brought by the lightning.

They could even hear the sound of thunder in their ears.

Chen Xian looked at the information on the System panel.

[Daily Intelligence 2: There are thousands of Thunder Birds near the Thunder Pool where Thunder Roar Sword Saint fell. They are guardian Divine Beasts bred by the Thunder Pool. Those who approach the Thunder Pool will surely face retaliation from the Thunder Birds!]

Chen Xian looked at the cloudless sky.

He couldn’t even see a shadow of a Thunder Bird.

However, he didn’t doubt the System; instead, he doubted his own eyes.

The Thunder Birds must be nearby.

Stopping there, Chen Xian yawned.

He pretentiously took out the map.

”You two, the Thunder Pool is just ahead.”

”I won’t be going over. I hope you two can help me pick up a good sword if you find one inside. I would be most grateful!”

Chen Xian’s words...

Left both Zhao Yan and Lu Tianchen stunned.

”You’re not going over?”

The two became suspicious.

Instead, Chen Xian showed a simple and honest smile.

”I know my own limits. You are all Foundation Establishment Stage experts, while I am only at the Qi Refining Seventh Layer.”

”The Thunder Pool ahead is so dangerous; going in would be suicide for me!”

”It’s better to wait for you to come out. I only hope that you all have the Opportunity to think of me more. I can pay, or even give you this map!”

As soon as Chen Xian said this,

Zhao Yan and Lu Tianchen glanced at each other with mutual understanding.

Their hearts were filled with secret joy.

Because they were just thinking about the three forces entering the Thunder Pool.

Whether they should fight for the Opportunity or take the chance to strike at Chen Xian, the Big Sucker.

One was the Sword Saint’s Opportunity that every Sword Cultivator dreamed of.

The other was the detailed map of the Shanhai Secret Realm.

Just as both were caught in a dilemma,

Chen Xian’s proposal made their eyes light up instantly.

Zhao Yan said excitedly, ”Fellow Daoist Chen, then don’t leave. In consideration of your previous helping hand, our Heavenly Sword Sect will definitely find an Opportunity for you!”

”That’s right, our Lu Family will too. You stay here, and whatever you do, do not move!”

Chen Xian: ”...”

Damn, I feel like I’m being taken advantage of!

But he said honestly, ”Don’t worry, I came here just to find an Opportunity and prove to everyone that I’m not a waste!”

”Good luck, everyone. I’ll wait here for your triumphant return!”

Chen Xian’s words...

Were like a stimulant for everyone.

Whoever gets the Opportunity can also trick Chen Xian out of the map!

It was simply killing two birds with one stone.

The two sides raced toward the Thunder Pool.

As for Chen Xian, seeing this scene,

He tried hard to suppress the corners of his mouth from curling up.

He didn’t know what the Thunder Birds looked like or how destructive they were,

But now it was fine; someone could test it out for him!

Sure enough,

When the people from the Heavenly Sword Sect and the Lu Family rushed to within fifty meters of the Thunder Pool,

Lightning flashed above the Thunder Pool.

Thunder roared loudly!

Everyone only felt the light in front of them was blinding.

In a burst of dizziness,

Their movements began to slow down.

And at this time,

Countless birds condensed from lightning appeared out of nowhere in mid-air.

They each let out sharp cries, sounding like thunder.

The shock made some people dizzy.

Some even knelt on the ground.

As for Zhao Yan and Lu Tianchen, they weren’t feeling well either at this time.

Their faces were pale.

”This Thunder Pool is indeed not that easy to enter!”

”Damn it, everyone focus your Qi and spirit, keep moving forward.”

If they were only one force,

They would definitely be cautious.

They would even be extremely prudent.

But now there was not only competition but also the big pie that was Chen Xian behind them.

They couldn’t afford to waste time.

They had to be the first to enter this Thunder Pool.

Meanwhile,

Seeing this scene, Chen Xian was simply overjoyed.

”See that? A truly strong person doesn’t rely on strength to crush everything, but lets the enemy do everything for you!”
