"So Brother Military Governor is also going to participate in the Skyscraper Cliff test!" Wang Zhiqiang said nervously as he accompanied Guhan.
"What's wrong?
Will I eat you?
Why do you look so scared? "Guhan chuckled.
"Of course not. I'm just surprised that Brother Military Governor has such a high level of cultivation at such a young age. I'm very impressed by him."
Wang Zhiqiang was speaking the truth. He could not understand how Guhan could reach such a terrifying level of cultivation at such a young age.
Killing a Dragon-class expert like Yuan Kou was as easy as killing a puppy.
"It's just hard work!" Wang Zhiqiang did not believe a single word that came out of Guhan's mouth.
In terms of hard work, Wang Zhiqiang believed that he would not lose to anyone. He was already a leader among his peers at such a young age.
Wang Zhiqiang felt that the benefits that could be brought about by hard work were probably at the limit of his ability. Gu Han's strength was definitely not something that could be summed up with just hard work. It was obvious that the man in front of him was deliberately concealing himself.
Since Wang Zhiqiang did not want to say anything, Wang Zhiqiang did not dare to force him.
Brother Guhan had already saved Wang Zhiqiang's life. There was no reason for Wang Zhiqiang to ask any more questions.
"Where are you going now, Brother Wang?" Guhan changed the topic.
"To be honest, us brothers are trying our luck. We're going to the Skyscraper Cliff to see if we're lucky enough to become Fleeting Jiandi's disciple." Wang Zhiqiang answered honestly.
Fleeting Jiandi was naturally the Kenzu Fleeting Calendar. However, the current Fleeting Calendar was no longer called Kenzu. It was a title given to him by the later generations after the Fleeting Calendar disappeared. The current Fleeting Calendar's official name was Fleeting Jiandi.
"That's great! Brother Wang, we can go together!" Guhan's words were like music to Wang Zhiqiang's ears.
Wang Zhiqiang and the others still had lingering fears from the fierce battle just now. Being able to travel with an expert like Guhan naturally greatly increased their safety.
However, Wang Zhiqiang didn't know that even if he rejected Guhan's good intentions, Guhan would still pester him shamelessly to set off with him. Guhan really didn't want to wander around like a headless fly anymore.
Therefore, under the lead of Wang Zhiqiang's team, Guhan began to move towards the Skyscraper Cliff.
Along the way, Guhan met quite a few Yuan Kou. Almost every hour, a Yuan Kou would come knocking on his door.
Originally, Guhan wanted to deal with these fellows by himself.
He didn't think that Wang Zhiqiang would take the initiative to ask Guhan not to intervene … Unless it was a critical moment of certain death like before, Wang Zhiqiang still wanted to train his team more.
Regarding this, Guhan didn't have any objections. In fact, Wang Zhiqiang even looked up to him. This guy's talent and perseverance were not bad. If there were no problems with synchronization in the future, it shouldn't be a problem for Wang Zhiqiang to become a spirit sword holder.
In the end, all the way to the bottom of the Skyscraper Cliff, Guhan still didn't make a move. They were all taken care of by Wang Zhiqiang and his teammates … In fact, Guhan wanted to make a move because Tomono Kakaze was chattering beside him. It was really noisy.
It seemed that only Guhan could see Tomono Kakaze. In the eyes of others, Tomono Kakaze didn't seem to exist. Even if Tomono Kakaze shouted, the others wouldn't have any reaction.
Obviously, in the eyes of others, Tomono Kakaze didn't exist.
Of course, this wasn't strange because Tomono Kakaze didn't exist in this world in the form of a human. She was just a spectator outside of this instance dungeon.
After a three-day journey, Guhan finally arrived at the place called Skyscraper Cliff.
At this time, Guhan could already confirm that the location in the instance dungeon was roughly near the old Yanjing City. It was more than 300 kilometers away from the new Yanjing City, which was why Guhan and the others had to walk for three days.
That's right, Guhan arrived at Skyscraper Cliff on foot.
At this time, human civilization was still in the initial stage of recovery. The level of human technology had already declined to the first industrial revolution.
Although the theory of technology was still there, the small core area of the new Yanjing City couldn't even meet the needs of human habitation, let alone building a luxury car production line.
Although some of the cars left from the Great Destruction era could still be used, humans still couldn't mass-produce the most crucial fuel for cars.
If they wanted to produce gasoline, they needed oil, and if they wanted oil, they needed oil fields. Unfortunately, there was no oil field in this world that humans could safely mine … Even after a thousand years, this world was still the same.
However, after a thousand years, humans were already used to using electricity to solve all problems. Small nuclear fusion reactors could solve all problems. Humans could even shrink nuclear fusion reactors to the size of a stationery box. Therefore, all the maglev flying cars now used small nuclear fusion reactors.
Of course, this era didn't completely lack transportation. If one could become an immortal sword wielder, then one could still obtain a modified off-road vehicle … and enough gasoline for one's use.
These gasoline were obtained by other sword wielder who risked their lives to go to some of the remaining gas stations. The more they used, the less they had.
Therefore, most human sword wielder could only use their legs to measure this world and use their legs to fight in this world.
Frankly speaking, Guhan found that the sword wielder of this era was far better than the sword wielder of a thousand years in terms of combat ability and fighting spirit.
This was because their mortality rate was much higher than that of the sword wielder who used maglev flying cars to travel a thousand years later.
At the same time, Guhan also noticed that this era was terrifyingly rich in resources.
During the three-day journey, Guhan saw naked dimensional crystal mines on the ground more than once.
These dimensional crystal mines hidden deep in the mountains and underground would require humans to go deep into dangerous areas and expend a lot of energy to mine them a thousand years later. At this time, they were directly exposed on the ground. Wang Zhiqiang and the others didn't even look at these dimensional crystal mines, as if they were worthless.
Later, after a roundabout conversation with Wang Zhiqiang, Guhan finally confirmed that in the eyes of humans in this era, dimensional crystal mines were indeed worthless.
The dimensional crystal stones that were sold for more than 300,000 hero coins in the future could be easily found in this era with a little effort.
Therefore, the dimensional crystals and sword mark imprints of this era were freely available.
After obtaining their own Sword Maiden, all Sword Wielder would be able to immediately raise their Sword Maiden to the first grade and activate their Sword Maiden's Ultimate Skill on the spot.
"That's not what's written in the textbooks!" Faced with this situation, Guhan was puzzled.
Although it was clearly recorded in the textbooks and all the historical records.
Although humans were indeed rich in resources during the early period of the apocalypse, it was definitely not to this extent. It was so rich that first-grade sword maidens seemed to be standard equipment.
"Mina-chan, let me ask you a question. What's the situation of the sword wielder during the early period of the apocalypse?
What's the situation with the sword maidens?
Are they really so extravagant in using dimensional crystals? "Guhan asked Tomono Kakaze, who had all the information in her hands.
"No, according to my information, the rate of first-grade sword maidens in this era should be around 40%. It's definitely not as terrifying as this dungeon shows," Tomono Kakaze answered Guhan's question with a face full of disbelief.
"This is interesting. I seem to have discovered something incredible."
Gu Han swallowed a mouthful of saliva and did not say anything else. He silently followed Wang Zhiqiang until they reached the Skyscraping Cliff.
The Skyscraping Cliff was a branch of the Dabie Mountains. It was a towering mountain that reached the clouds. Along the mountain range, one could clearly see eight red buildings filled with ancient Chinese architectural style. This was probably the legendary 《Twelve Skyscraping Palaces》.
"Shouldn't the Twelve Skyscraping Palaces have twelve palaces?
Why are there only eight here? "
Guhan used his eyes that were sharper than an eagle's to confirm that there were indeed only eight palaces on the entire cliff.
"It's true that it's the Twelve Skyscraping Palaces. However, the Twelve Skyscraping Palaces didn't appear from the beginning. It's said that on the first day, only the mouse palace of the first palace appeared. The other eleven palaces didn't appear.
Later on, we discovered that only when a sword wielder passed through it would the appearance of the next palace appear, "Wang Zhiqiang said with some surprise.
Wang Zhiqiang said with some surprise. Why did this Gu Han seem to be a swordsman that came out of the mountains? He didn't even know this basic common sense.
"In other words, the highest achievement for a sword wielder so far is to pass through the seventh palace?" Guhan asked with a frown.
"That's right. It was the record set by the Cardinal Sword Spirit two years ago. Until now, no one has been able to break the Cardinal Sword Spirit's record." Wang Zhiqiang's face showed an expression of admiration.
"Cardinal Sword Spirit!"
Guhan's eyes lit up. This Cardinal Sword Spirit was quite famous in the future. However, when he was famous, he was already Cardinal Jiandi.
Yes, according to the records.
This Cardinal Sword Spirit would officially ascend to the throne when he was sixty years old. He would become the seventh Emperor Sword sword wielder of humanity.
This Cardinal Sword Spirit was also a Sword Master. With this future Jiandi's ability, he only managed to pass through the seventh palace. It seemed like the Twelve Skyscraping Palaces were indeed extraordinary.
At the same time, this made Guhan even more confused.
Kenzu actually looked down on a human who had the potential to become an Emperor Sword sword wielder. What kind of human was he going to choose as his disciple?
"By the way, the Twelve Skyscraping Palaces should have appeared for quite some time. Brother Wang, why are you only here now?" Guhan asked curiously.
"Actually, this is my fifth time here!"
Wang Zhiqiang rubbed his head dejectedly. "It's been ten years. I've long since given up hope of becoming Fleeting Jiandi's disciple. I'm only here to verify the results of my training. I feel that I should be able to improve compared to three years ago!"
"Moreover, this is the last year. Fleeting Jiandi has already given an imperial edict. In six months, the Twelve Skyscraping Palaces will be taken back. He no longer has the patience to wait any longer."
