Sword Emperor

"Brother Sun, when did this happen? How could it make you look like this?"    

Lang Xuan couldn't help but ask when he saw this scene.    

Regarding this, Sun Bing's mind moved, and the surrounding space changed completely. In the blink of an eye, they had arrived in a completely new environment.    

Not far away, there were pieces of broken rocks that were flickering with a faint fluorescent light. If one were to observe carefully, one could even notice that they were still moving slowly, as if there were signs of life.    

Immediately, Yan Yuan furrowed his brows and said in a soft voice, "What kind of Divine Gold is this? Why is it so strange?"    

"This item can be considered my greatest harvest this time. It's a stone man with nine apertures. I wonder if you have heard of it before."    

Sun Bing replied immediately, but his face was also filled with confusion. "In the previous battle, this stone man with nine apertures was the clone of Great Monarch of the Polaris. It has been completely destroyed by me. Could it be that it is going to heal again?"    

When he thought of this, Sun Bing's face immediately became solemn. The vast fluctuation of energy in the Middle World was unleashed with a single thought.    

This scene could truly be described as changing the color of the heavens and the earth. Mountains and rivers were flowing in reverse. Just the aura that was spreading out from it was incomparably terrifying. All the power were pressing down on the rocks in front of them.    

However, at this moment, Lang Xuan couldn't help but exclaim, "This thing is actually a stone man with nine apertures? Brother Sun, please wait. "    

Immediately, Sun Bing stopped what he was doing and turned his head to look at Lang Xuan, his eyes filled with doubt.    

"Brother Sun, if this is really a stone man with nine apertures, then you will earn a lot."    

Immediately after, Lang Xuan couldn't help but explain. "I learned about this stone man with nine apertures from an ancient book in my clan. It is said that this stone man with nine apertures was born and raised by the heavens and the earth. It can be said that it is a descendant of the heaven and earth, and not only can it perfectly match the heaven and the earth.    

Most importantly, even if it falls and collapses, it can still absorb the energy of the heavens and the earth, and heal the injuries on its body. Finally, it can be born again.    

It could be said that the stone man with nine apertures represented eternal life. Once it is successfully cultivated, it will become an eternal guardian. Even if it falls, it will definitely be able to recover in the future."    

At this point, Lang Xuan's eyes were filled with envy. After all, Great Monarch had the possibility of dying, and this ability was even more powerful than Great Monarch's power.    

After receiving this news, Sun Bing was also very excited. However, in the next moment, his mood became quite gloomy.    

"If this stone man with nine apertures is able to grow to its peak, it can be considered as an invincible expert that can protect a world. However, the time required to do so is really too long. My race doesn't have that much time to wait."    

Regarding this, Lang Xuan could only sigh deeply. This was because since ancient times, there were very few rumors about the stone man with nine apertures. He also had no good ideas.    

But at this moment, after pondering for a long time, Yan Yuan finally spoke.    

"In all these years, I have explored countless places in the Ancient Ruins. I seem to have seen some news that might be helpful to you."    

Yan Yuan's words immediately attracted the attention of Sun Bing and Lang Xuan. For a moment, both of their eyes shifted to him.    

After that, they heard Yan Yuan speak. "The stone man with nine apertures is a natural divine being. Not only has it appeared in our era, it has also existed since a very long time ago.    

Although the power in the stone man with nine apertures is endless, just as you all said, it takes too much time. It is usually built on the basis of billions of years. Because of this, some people in one of the eras have thought of a unique method.    

The stone man with nine apertures was connected to a world. Under the infusion of thousands of Great Daos, its rate of growth was hundreds or even thousands of times faster than usual. Moreover, as long as the world was not destroyed, the stone man with nine apertures would not die.    

Most importantly, if the world was upgraded, the stone man with nine apertures would also undergo a significant transformation. In this way, it would only take a few thousand years for the stone man with nine apertures to fully mature.    

The only drawback of this method was that it would never be able to leave that world in the future. The only thing it could do was to be a guardian peacefully. This would be a reckless waste of resources."    

However, Sun Bing's eyes lit up when he heard this method, because what the Humans lacked the most right now was high combat strength. If he could use this method to cultivate the stone man with nine apertures...    

Then, he would perfectly solve the drawbacks of the Humans.    

As for that shortcoming, Sun Bing didn't put it in his eyes at all. In fact, he didn't even care about it. Because, the most important thing about the stone man with nine apertures was to protect the Humans.    

Finally, Sun Bing cupped his fists at Sun Bing. His words were filled with gratitude. "Thank you for telling me. I can't thank you enough."    

"Alright. There was no need for such formalities between the two of us. It was just some useless information. "    

However, Yan Yuan waved his hand to show that he didn't mind.    

Sun Bing didn't say much about it. He just kept it in his heart.    

Because the value of information varied from person to person. For ordinary people, such information was worthless, and could only be regarded as gossip.    

However, in Sun Bing's eyes, this simple piece of information could be considered a priceless treasure. If Yan Yuan hadn't told him about it... Most of the stone man with nine apertures would have been left here by Sun Bing, and would slowly recover, until it was completely forgotten.    

Because of this sudden news, Sun Bing's heart was filled with the eagerness to go back. After all, even with the help of an entire world, the growth of the stone man with nine apertures was still very long.    

Furthermore, the cost was simply too much. It wouldn't be of any help to Sun Bing in a short period of time. Therefore, to Sun Bing, it was a pity to abandon it as it was tasteless to him.    

However, it was different to the entire Humans. He believed that the stone man with nine apertures was connected to the world of the Humans, and that it was the best choice.    

Because of this, the sooner he returned to the Humans, the better. In that case, the stone man with nine apertures would be able to come into being one day earlier. In addition, he would be able to reminisce about the past, and he would never be able to see it again.    

When he thought of this, Sun Bing was even absent-minded from the bottom of his heart.    

Lang Xuan immediately sensed that something was wrong with Sun Bing. He couldn't help but speak.    

"Brother Sun, please listen to me. You have to stay hidden for a period of time. You must not reveal any trace of yourself. Otherwise, not only will you be in great danger, even the clan behind you will be in great danger."
