479. Clues of the Saber World

Great Dream City.

Lin Fei issued a task.

"A thousand contribution points, to seek the Saber World of Martial Kings! Any Martial King with Saber World. Or the Saber World left behind after the fall of a Martial King. As long as there are clues, and they are confirmed, one can receive a reward of a thousand contribution points! The mission is long-term effective!"

Lin Fei directly posted the reward mission in Great Dream City. A reward mission of a thousand contribution points seeking clues of the Saber World. Just clues are needed, once provided, a thousand contribution points can be obtained.

Of course, Lin Fei only has two thousand contribution points at the moment. He could only support two tasks. But it's okay. Lin Fei could still continue to do tasks. He would be able to earn more contribution points in the future.

Meanwhile, Lin Fei was also looking for some tasks in Great Dream City. And he was also paying attention to the news about some ownerless small worlds.

Information exchange in Great Dream City was very convenient. Soon, Lin Fei heard some news.

"Some people in Black Moon City have discovered an ownerless small world. It was directly auctioned and sold at a high price! As a result, the news leaked, causing a dispute."

"Tsk tsk, three Martial Gods fell. Eighteen Deity Transformation powerhouses were annihilated, countless avatars were destroyed, and the losses were heavy. In the end, the origin of that small world was obtained by the Initial Evil True Person. Once fully comprehended, it is feared that the distance from Transcendence is not far."

"There is also news of ownerless small worlds in Linglong City. Even without seeing the small worlds, violent fighting broke out. Many Deity Transformation powerhouses suffered losses of avatars, and the losses were heavy. As a result, it was discovered that someone had set a trap, and there was no ownerless small world at all, which caused a chaotic slaughter..."

Such messages abound in Great Dream City. Lin Fei also realized from them how difficult it is to contend for small worlds. The Initial Evil True Person was a top Deity Transformation powerhouse. It is rumored to have tens of thousands of avatars and numerous treasures. It has even slain Martial Gods before!

Such a fierce and unparalleled figure almost had all its avatars annihilated before barely seizing the origin of the small world. Lin Fei felt that with his current strength if he were to participate in the contention for the origin of a small world. It's afraid there would be no good outcome.

Deity Transformation powerhouses would suffer heavy losses, but they wouldn't die. But if a Martial God were to participate personally. Once their physical body perishes. Then they are truly dead!

Therefore, for now, Lin Fei focused on finding the whereabouts of the Saber World.

...

In Yuecheng, the Fang family, once a Martial King lineage renowned throughout the city and with a legacy spanning thousands of years, now faced a dire predicament.

The Fang family's dungeon was filled with their own kin, and Fang Yunshan, the young master, was shackled in specially crafted chains. His strength as a Martial Sovereign was thoroughly suppressed, rendering him incapable of breaking even the simplest of cages.

Covered in scars like a ghoul, Fang Yunshan's torment was evident. He harbored deep hatred, especially towards a woman who betrayed the family's greatest secret to a Deity Transformation being. As a result, this Deity Transformation entity, with just two of its incarnations, annihilated the Fang family and seized their secret realm.

Now a broken man, confined within the prison walls, what hope could Fang Yunshan possibly have? Exhausted, he drifted in and out of sleep in his cell. In a semi-conscious state, a mysterious scripture appeared in his mind. He recalled a time when he burned some books and unexpectedly found a golden page that remained unscathed by the flames. Filled with dense text, this golden page excited him, hinting at a great adventure.

However, as he attempted to memorize the words on the golden page, they vanished rapidly, leaving him with only a vague recollection. Over time, even this memory had almost faded. But now, in his despair, the words from the golden page resurfaced clearly in his mind: "Great Dream Heart Sutra." Whispering to himself, Fang Yunshan began practicing the sutra, following the mantra that emerged in his mind. Although the Great Dream Heart Sutra only had one level and seemed unremarkable at first, Fang Yunshan felt it was his only hope and diligently studied it.

After several days of practice, one night, Fang Yunshan felt a jolt throughout his body. Half-awake, he slowly opened his eyes, only to find himself in a vast city bustling with people.

Fang Yunshan was deeply shaken. He observed discreetly, unraveling the mystery over several days. The Great Dream Heart Sutra had led him to become a member of the Great Dream Sect.

However, to receive assistance from other members in the sect, he had to issue tasks with rewards. In this realm, everyone was a Martial God, and if a Martial God extended help, his family could be saved. But Fang Yunshan lacked the contribution points to offer as a reward; trapped, he couldn't undertake tasks to earn them.

Thus, he waited silently in the Task Hall, day after day, unsure of what exactly he was waiting for – perhaps an opportunity, but what kind he did not know. It was his only hope, the only hope for the Fang family. As he observed day after day in the Task Hall, an opportunity finally presented itself. His heart leaped as he spotted a task: "Seeking clues about Saber World." His intuition told him this was the chance he had been waiting for.

Without hesitation, Fang Yunshan accepted the task. Lin Fei, who had posted the task, was surprised that it was accepted so quickly. In the Dream City, within their shared dreamscape, the meeting was effortless.

"Lord, I have accepted your task," Fang Yunshan addressed Lin Fei, his voice trembling with emotion and urgency. "But I don't need the thousand contribution points. I only ask that you, Martial God, rescue my Fang family and drive away the Deity Transformation entity. In return, the Saber World left by our ancestor will be yours."

Fang Yunshan, nearly pleading, was visibly shaken and his voice trembled.

"Not a thousand contribution points, but just to drive away a Deity Transformation cultivator?"

Lin Fei's gaze flickered with interest. He asked Fang Yunshan to elaborate. Gradually, Lin Fei learned the full story. The Fang family's ancestor, a Martial King and a saber wielder, had failed to achieve Martial Gods status and perished, leaving behind a Saber World.

This Saber World, upon the master's death, gradually transformed into a secret realm, enriched with treasures by the Fang family. A Deity Transformation entity coveted this realm and easily sought to claim it, reducing the Fang family to ruins.

Fang Yunshan, imprisoned yet possessing the first layer of the Great Dream Heart Sutra, found a way into the Dream City and stumbled upon this opportunity.

"A mere ordinary Deity Transformation," Lin Fei pondered, "Since you have a Saber World, we have a deal. I'll drive away the Deity Transformation from your Fang family in exchange for your Saber World."

After agreeing to help, Lin Fei promised to soon arrive at Yuecheng, where the Fang family was located. He then disappeared.

Fang Yunshan awoke from his dream, still in the damp, dark, and cold prison cell, yet his heart was ablaze with excitement and hope. He knew that the Fang family might have a chance at salvation.

"There's hope, everyone wakes up, hold on a little longer," Fang Yunshan encouraged his disheartened relatives in the dungeon, offering them a glimmer of hope. However, the Fang family members were skeptical. In such dire straits, who would come to save the Fang family?
