Chapter 107

Of course, the key is to act according to circumstances and only release it when it is relatively safe.

Now that Li Yang felt more confident, he said to Song Menjiao, "Please tell Marquis of Wind Pavilion that I thank her for gifting me the Noisy Pot, and I will take it with me to the Sword Tomb."

Song Menjiao sincerely said, "I wish you good luck."

May 4th according to the Heavenly Palace Calendar.

This was the day the Sword Tomb emerged from the Astral Realm.

Li Yang was quite moved.

On May 4th, if it were her past life, she would have been on the May Day holiday.

Unfortunately, she not only didn't have a holiday, but also had to work several jobs at the Sword Tomb.

Only two people from the Heavenly Palace were able to go to the Sword Tomb this time: Li Yang and Jiang Yuqing.

Everyone from the Nature Department wanted to see Li Yang off, but Li Yang stopped them all.

Before she left, she told everyone, "Stay home and farm, and wait for me to come back."

Everyone nodded in agreement, Lin Zhaoqin said casually, "Don't worry, Senior Sister, I'll take care of things at home."

With her senior sister gone, she became the strongest member of the team, so she had to step up and support the family.

Zhong Kun and Yu Hongyuan, one with red eyes and the other with tears welling up, were deeply moved by their reluctance to part with Li Yang.

Zhong Kun: "Yangzi, go and come back soon." He felt uneasy when she wasn't home.

Yu Hongyuan: "Senior sister, you will definitely get a powerful, Growth-Type Divine Weapon." As her younger brother, he will pray for her every day at home!

Li Yang was amused by them and said, "Alright, stay home and wait patiently, I'll bring you all gifts."

Jiang Yuqing was standing right next to him, but at that moment he was unaware of the significance of those words.

A gift brought back from the Sword Tomb?

It's probably some kind of material used for forging weapons.

The students in the Agronomy Department didn't think too much about it; they weren't interested in gifts, they just hoped Li Yang would return safely.

This is different from interstellar operations; it's Li Yang's solo mission, so everyone is bound to be worried.

The three old farmers put on a brave face, but after Li Yang left, they couldn't help but wipe away their tears.

Ying Qi said, "Why are you crying? The flow of energy between the Sword Tomb and the Astral Realm is different. Senior Sister will be back in three days at most."

Everyone: "..." They instantly felt like they had cried for nothing.

The invitation to the Sword Tomb from Li Yang and Jiang Yuqing is itself a targeted teleportation talisman.

However, they cannot teleport within the Heavenly Palace, as this would easily expose Heavenly Palace coordinates.

Therefore, the Star Combat Division specifically dispatched a lieutenant general to send them to a transit point in the Astral Realm.

The lieutenant general looked at the two men with considerable emotion and said, "Go, be careful, and I hope you achieve your goals!"

After saying that, she gave them a military salute.

Li Yang and Jiang Yuqing returned her salute, saying in unison, "Thank you for the escort, Lieutenant General!"

After saying that, the two used the invitation from the Sword Tomb.

Li Yang felt dizzy and kept repeating to himself, "Life Domain, Life Domain... Please don't fall into the Death Domain."

The Sword Tomb has two sides, one called the Life Domain and the other called the Death Domain.

Entering the Life Domain is relatively safer.

Entering the Death Domain is like starting in hell.

Chapter 107

Jiang Yuqing were also praying.

But he didn't care whether he was in the Life Domain or the Death Domain; all he kept repeating was, "Never let me be separated from Li Yang! Never let me be separated from her! Never let me be separated from her!"

However, their hopes were dashed.

Jiang Yuqing reside in the Life Domain, while Li Yang resides in the Death Domain.

When Li Yang opened her eyes and saw the scene before her, her heart sank.

What you least want to happen, happens most often; that's Murphy's Law.

In the library of the Huaxia Heavenly Palace, there is a special section for books related to secret realms, many of which record information about the Sword Tomb.

Li Yang and Jiang Yuqing both read through a lot of materials and had a general idea of what the Sword Tomb was like.

No matter how much information there is, it cannot conceal the mysterious and unpredictable nature of the Astral Realm; no one can foresee what the next Sword Tomb will be like.

Each time the Sword Tomb opens, the situation inside is different from the last time.

Sometimes the changes are so drastic that they completely overturn all previous "strategies".

A veteran player specifically warned in the book, "Blindly trusting guides is worse than not trusting them at all; you might die because of them."

Some authoritative scholars with in-depth knowledge of Sword Tomb have said, "There is more than one Sword Tomb that has sunk into the Astral Realm, so no one knows which one they will enter before they enter."

This is the legendary theory of multiple Sword Tomb.

After investigating to the end, Li Yang concluded that the best course of action was to adapt to the situation.

The only information that can be used for reference is that the Sword Tomb has always had two sides: the front is called the Life Domain, and the back is called the Death Domain.

Regardless of the internal environment of the Sword Tomb, it always maintains a structure with both front and back sides.

All the records Central Capital the same sentence: The Death Domain is extremely dangerous.

Because most of those who were teleported to the Death Domain did not return alive.

Those who returned alive had one thing in common: they were incredibly lucky to quickly find the Reversal Formation Core leading to the Life Domain.

Therefore, they knew nothing about the situation in the Death Domain and could only keep repeating, "Danger! Extremely dangerous!"

Li Yang knew he was in Death Domain.

This is because there is a clear distinction between the Life Domain and the Death Domain.

The Life Domain has light, and although the source of the light source is unknown, it is certainly not as dark as the Death Domain.

Li Yang squinted, straining to observe her surroundings.

Since we're in the Death Domain, let's start there.

Complaining about the environment won't solve the problem.

Suddenly, a red laser flashed in the dim light, hurtling towards Li Yang at an extremely fast speed.

Li Yang leaped up, avoiding the red light.

Where the red light landed, charred blackness spread out, and an exaggerated gash was carved into the ruins on the ground.

"What the hell!" Li Yang was startled and couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Immediately afterward, another red light swept over. She quickly activated Frenzy, locked onto her target with her mental power, drew her twin blades, and charged forward.

Taking the beating passively is not her style.

With a series of thuds, Li Yang felt as if he had struck an extremely hard shell.

What is this?

Only when Li Yang got closer could she see clearly that this thing looked somewhat familiar...

It was made entirely of hard steel, exuding a cold, rusty aura, yet it had the shape of a human.

This is actually a... mech!

In her past life, Li Yang quite enjoyed watching Transformers and even fantasized about becoming a mecha warrior in a space novel.

I never imagined that such a thing could exist in this world.

Were these mechs man-made, or by some race from the Astral Realm?

No, another characteristic of the Death Domain is that there are no living beings.

These are not mecha-like Astral Realm beings, but rather artificially created.

Good heavens, shouldn't the Sword Tomb be a graveyard for swords? Why are there mechs here?!

What is the relationship between them?

Oh, if I had to say... I guess they'd all be considered weapons.

Li Yang's Star Weapon were purple, and theoretically they should be able to easily break through ordinary steel, or even some special steel materials. However, when she struck this mech, she didn't even leave a scratch.

The mecha suddenly raised its arm and delivered a lightning-fast punch to Li Yang.

Li Yang had no choice but to retreat, but the red light suddenly shot towards him again.

Li Yang and it exchanged dozens of blows in an instant. A thin layer of sweat rolled down her forehead, and she became more and more focused, but she still couldn't find any opening.

That's really troublesome!

"Fellow Daoist, unleash your full mental power!"

Li Yang was already focused on switching states, and now she mobilized all her mental energy. She had thought that Lianxin was asking her to try to pinpoint the mecha's weaknesses under extreme mental pressure...

Unexpectedly, Li Yang's mental energy miraculously materialized, covering the mecha like optical fibers.

After the fiber optics of mental energy covered the mecha, the mecha was briefly locked in a stalemate.

Li Yang felt a buzzing in his head, and the outline of the mecha appeared in his Spirit Sea.

The silver-white mecha, at first glance, looks like a long sword pointing to the sky.

Why did it appear in her Spirit Sea? Could she control it?

As Li Yang was still pondering, the mecha moved, charging towards her like a madman.

Li Yang's attention was diverted, and his Spirit Optical Fiber was disconnected.

Fueled by the Frenzy, Li Yang evaded the mecha's impact with astonishing speed.

With a loud bang, the mech crashed into a solid wall and exploded into a pile of scrap metal.

Li Yang: "..." For some reason, the word "fierce" came to mind.

The mech that crashed into her seemed to have read her mind, and used its self-destruction to refuse being controlled by her.

It felt as if it were shouting at her, "A loyal subject does not serve two masters!"

Li Yang shook her head, as if trying to shake away this absurd idea.

She asked Lianxin, "Lianlian, do you know what this thing is?"

Lianxin: "I don't know, it was the Noisy Pot that told me I could interfere with it using my mental power."

The Noisy Pot is very well-behaved now, staying obediently by Lianxin's side, like a dusty, ugly little ornament.

It was neither noisy nor disruptive, so quiet that it aroused suspicion, making one wonder if it was secretly looking for an opportunity to escape.

Li Yang then asked about the Noisy Pot.

The Noisy Pot said in a sharp, childlike voice, "These are Masterless Sword! They've developed a stress response after losing their owners, and they're most afraid of being mentally controlled."

Masterless Sword?

Li Yang looked at the pile of scrap metal and said incredulously, "You call this a sword?!"

The Noisy Pot continued, "They weren't always like this. It's only after losing their owners that they try to become like their former selves in the desolate Death Domain."

When he said this, the shrill voice of the Noisy Pot was unusually low.

Li Yang was taken aback upon hearing this.
