Chapter 125 Ch 125: Outline Of The World (3)
Dreams, especially real dreams!
Alex realized that he was standing on an open book from the middle. There were many diagrams depicted in the book. The diagram depicted humans, beasts, and all sorts of monsters.
"This is...?" Alex looked at the book beneath his feet in astonishment. Right now, he was like an ant crawling on the carpet.
Then, Alex suddenly realized something and saw a black shadow standing not far away from him. It was impossible to see his appearance but from the contours of it, he looked somewhat similar to himself.
"Who are you?" Alex asked.
The black shadow did not reply, and a sword-like shadow appeared in his hand. Then, it started to dance in front of Alex.
"This is?" Alex was obviously stunned, what exactly was going on? What shocked him even more was that the sword technique his opponent had used was Boundless Sword Art'.
In the past two years, Alex had been tormented by this sword technique, he was unable to practice it no matter how hard he tried. However, the black figure in front of him had unleashed a sword move that caused Alex to open his eyes wide in shock.
The moves were orderly and unbroken, like a torrential river, sword strike after sword, one strike after another. It did not look as stiff as what Alex did before.
"I understand. So that's how it is." Alex's face was overflowing with excitement. He finally understood what it meant to be called boundless. It turned out that this sword skill did not have any specific methods.
The more he trained, the faster the black shadow moved. Alex stared intently, not even willing to blink once. He could even feel the air around him start to tremble.
"I understand it all, haha."
Alex jumped up excitedly, his body suddenly shivered, and his eyelids suddenly opened. He was ready to practice this sword skill and truly comprehend its boundlessness.
But... What he couldn't understand for now was, what was the book where he was standing in that strange dream?
For some reason, he instinctively took out the Outline Of The World. This was the book he has duplicated after bringing the original out from the Martial Arts Pavilion two years ago. A weak later, he returned one of them and kept the other one.
He was not sure, but his guts were telling him that what happened before must be related to this strange book. He knew nothing about the Outline Of The World. Even his replication ability only told him a few things about it and didn't give him the complete information.
Staring at it for a few seconds, he opened the book in the middle, but to his disappointment, there was nothing. The book was still blank.
Sighing, Alex kept the book and was ready to practice the sword skill.
This time, Alex changed the place. He ran to the foot of the mountain to take a bath at a remote lake. Then he began his training again.
.....
Alex, as the third person, was watching everything carefully. He also wanted to see if Alex could comprehend the Boundless Sword Art or not, however, suddenly the scene changed once again. His eyes didn't blur, it was just that scene that changed.
"Maybe, it is because this time only a few days have passed!"
Thinking like this, he started looking at the scene in front of him silently.
In the lush and verdant forest, a nimble figure was moving back and forth between the trees.
Hiss!
A cold light flashed, and a poisonous snake that was coiled around a tree was hacked into two. Then, like a broken rubber band, it fell onto the ground made of fallen leaves.
Swoosh!
Then, a figure holding an iron sword steadily landed on the ground. Looking at the two segments of the snake torso on the ground, Alex's mouth formed a faint smile.
"I'm sorry, it was you who ambushed me first."
He raised his head and looked around, he was already at the edge of a mountain forest. In this vast mountain forest, there were many types of poisonous creatures. In the inner regions, there were even demonic beasts.
The core in a demonic beast's body was a good thing. The Demon Core contained the purest source of power for demonic beasts. Although humans couldn't absorb it directly. However, it could be embedded into a weapon to increase its lethality. It could also be used as a material for refining pills, etc. Its role is very broad.
As a result, many disciples liked to come to the back of the mountain in groups to hunt for demonic beasts and obtain their demon cores.
Although there were a lot of species of beasts in the rear mountains, the highest-ranked demon beasts found were only equivalent to a Golden Core Stage demonic beasts. As for those powerful demonic beasts above Golden Core Stage, they all resided in the deepest parts of the mountain forest.
Alex's current strength was low so he didn't go deeper. The beasts in the vicinity were only Level 1 or 2, so Alex did not take them to heart. At this moment, a panicked cry for help could be heard.
"Hmm?" Alex was startled, her voice sounded like she was a girl. He was slightly startled, and with a trace of doubt in his heart, he rushed in the direction of the voice.
"Rosy, don't be nervous, come over to our side!"
"Rosy, don't point your weapon at it."
In the forest, there was a snow-white demonic beast with fur like a cirrus. It was over a meter tall, and it was approaching a weak-looking woman with ominous eyes.
The woman's face was filled with panic as she tremblingly retreated.
On the other side, there were four people. From the looks of it, they were his companions. Four of them were three men and one woman. The woman wore a red robe and had a rather elegant appearance. Her eyebrows were filled with anxiety as she looked at the woman and the magical beast in front of her.
It was a Level 3 demonic beast called Flowing Wind Lion, whose movement speed was extremely fast. However, its personality was more docile. As long as it was not angered, it would not take the initiative to attack humans. None of them dared to rush forward, fearing that they would anger the Flowing Wind Lion.
However, the girl named Rosy was especially nervous. She gripped her longsword so tightly that she was about to cry. Big Sister, I'm scared, quickly come and save me."
"Why would a Level 3 Demonic Beast appear here?" The girl in red clenched her jade hands and then turned to a handsome man beside her, "Haider, if this continues, then we won't be able to continue anymore. The four of us will attack together and chase away that Flowing Wind Lion!"
The other two men nodded in agreement.
The handsome man who was called Haider seemed to have his reservations, as he shook his head and said, "Reshma, don't be rash. Perhaps that Flowing Wind Lion is just trying to scare Rosy."
"Haider, we four are at the Enlightenment Stage Level 7. There is no need to be afraid of the Flowing Wind Lion at all. Even if we can't kill it, it would be more than enough to chase it away."
"I'm not afraid!" Haider spread out his hands, saying: "I am just not willing to engage in a meaningless fight, believe me, the Flowing Wind Lion will definitely not harm Rosy."
Just as he finished speaking, the Flowing Wind Lion suddenly let out a low roar. Rosy's face changed when she saw the Flowing Wind Lion's stretching its front legs, as though it was going to attack.
"You two, let's go help." Reshma did not dare to delay any longer and immediately called out to the other two people.
"Mm. Alright." The other two people nodded their heads, raised their weapons, and rushed forward together with Reshma.
"Rosy, don't panic, we are here to save you."
"Roar!"
Seeing the actions of the three humans, the Flowing Wind Lion roared towards the sky.
"Sou!"
With a sound, it left behind a white afterimage and directly pounced at Rosy. Its speed was so fast that it made everyone click their tongues.
In just a blink of an eye, it had already traveled five to six meters and arrived in front of the other party. The expressions of Reshma and the other two changed completely.
