Nine hundred meters.
Six hundred meters.
Three hundred meters.
Chen Lin stopped.
His entire body trembled, his face pale, and he felt he could go no farther.
He gazed solemnly at the Rainbow Sword.
It seemed that even as the so-called Child of Destiny, he could not take the sword away yet.
The time had not come.
Still, the Sword Will had not corroded him either.
Although all his other energies were suppressed, his true solar fire could still exert its power. Both the flames and the Rainbow Sword's energy originated from the Seven Supreme Laws, allowing them to cancel each other out.
His true solar fire simply was not strong enough. Otherwise, he could have approached the Rainbow Sword and sensed its wonders up close.
"Seven-Star Shining Sun really was created specifically to retrieve the sword."
Chen Lin was not pleased.
The feeling of being manipulated was deeply unpleasant.
He would rather not have been special.
Being special meant trouble, meant facing danger at every moment, and he was not someone who enjoyed challenges.
Soon.
Chen Lin pulled himself together.
Having come this far, he could no longer retreat. He would see who emerged when the map unrolled to reveal the dagger.
As long as no dominator appeared in person, he would give whoever came a surprise.
After resting for a while.
Chen Lin activated his true solar fire, enveloping himself and Little Black Cat, and continued forcing his way forward.
An hour later.
He stopped again and shook his head helplessly.
The rainbow flowers surrounding the Rainbow Sword were within arm's reach, but he had no strength left whatsoever. This seemed to be a dividing line: one more step forward, and the Sword Will's strength would surge severalfold.
Chen Lin even felt a stabbing pain between his brows.
