I Have A Sword-Chapter 1396: I Really Cant Tolerate It

Ye Guan slowly closed his eyes, recalling the fragmented memories of Xuan Zheng and Ruler Yong. Before long, he gained a general understanding of the Old Lands.

A long, long time ago, the Old Lands Starry Region had only one civilization, the Old Lands Civilization, which was the native civilization of the starry region. Due to the existence of the legendary Ancestral Spiritual Vein, however, the starry region became the target of countless civilizations.

The Ancestral Spiritual Vein was the highest grade of spiritual vein in the vast expanse. According to legends, such spiritual veins only existed in the mythical Ancestral Civilization.

It was said that the ruler of the Ancestral Civilization was once the supreme ruler of all civilizations in the vast expanse, and they were known as the Universe Ruler.

The Old Lands Civilization allegedly obtained this Ancestral Spiritual Vein when the Old God ventured into the Ancestral Starry Region and retrieved it.

Regardless of whether this story was true or not, one thing was for sure. Among all known civilizations, only the Old Lands had the legendary Ancestral Spiritual Vein.

What made the Ancestral Spiritual Vein so terrifying was that its spiritual energy was truly endless and inexhaustible. Moreover, the quality of its spiritual energy far surpassed that of any other spiritual vein in existence.

Thus, the Old Lands became a coveted prize, but no civilization dared to make a move against them. The Old Lands Civilization was incomparably powerful, especially when the Old God was an unrivalled expert.

One day, Old God suddenly vanished without a trace. Having lost their one and only pillar, the Old Lands Civilization was left without a leader, and the other civilizations set their sights on it.

The first to invade was the Eternal Civilization, led by the Eternal Ruler, who forcefully established a foothold in the Old Lands.

Later, the Suiming Civilization arrived, triggering one of the fiercest wars in history. The most terrifying figure in that war was Beixin Ci, the Chief Enforcement Officer of the Suiming Civilization.

She crushed everything in her path, making her renowned as the most terrifying, second only to the Old God. After that, the Suiming Civilization secured its foothold in the Old Lands.

Eventually, the three civilizations, the Old Lands Civilization, the Eternal Civilization, and the Suiming Civilization, came to an agreement and formed an alliance, coexisting in peace.

However, there was one major incident that shook this peace agreement.

Beixin Ci suddenly betrayed the Suiming Civilization. For reasons unknown, she almost destroyed the Old Lands.

The three civilizations had to join forces to stop her.

The true reason behind her betrayal was still a mystery to this day.

A moment later, Ye Guan opened his eyes and muttered, "The Old God, the Eternal Ruler, and Beixin Ci..."

They were all big names.

Little Pagoda asked, "What's your plan?"

Ye Guan smiled and replied, "Take things as they come."

With that, he walked away.

Little Pagoda sighed and muttered, "Kid, I feel like your enemies are even stronger than your father's enemies back in the day."

"Haha." Ye Guan chuckled. "Honestly, it's not that bad. Think about it, in the mortal world, anyone who wants to be an emperor will always have countless strong enemies.

"However, I really can't tolerate the fact that even that bastard Great Daoist Brush Master is messing with me."

Just thinking about that bastard made him furious. He could accept having enemies, but the Great Daoist Brush Master was setting him up against extremely strong enemies.

How the hell was he supposed to fight them?!

He was really being forced to become the King of Relying on Others!

Just then, a terrifying thought struck Ye Guan. Shit! Is that the Great Daoist Brush Master's goal?!

The Great Dao Contest! Back then, his father founded the Guanxuan Academy to establish Order, but how did that turn out? He suffered endlessly. Eventually, his father's era ended, and he chose to withdraw from the Great Dao Contest.

It seemed like a conspiracy. Ye Guan could feel it. Could it be that this damned Great Daoist Brush Master was actually trying to force him out of the Great Dao Contest?

He let out a long, deep sigh. Dealing with the Suiming Civilization while also guarding against the Great Daoist Brush Master's underhanded tricks in the shadows was going to be exhausting. He desperately needed some allies.

Little Pagoda said, "Don't sigh, I'm here with you."

Ye Guan replied, "Master Pagoda, I mean no offense, but... you really need an upgrade."

Little Pagoda was at a loss for words.

Just then, Ye Guan turned and looked toward the right.

Thousands of meters away, a massive star ship was streaking across the void.

Ye Guan's eyes widened in shock at the ship's absurd size. It was the size of an entire planet and was moving at incredible speeds.

As soon as it entered the star field, it unleashed a shockwave that swept toward Ye Guan like a tidal wave. He released his sword aura to resist it, but the space around him still distorted.

The star ship began to slow down.

Ye Guan looked over and saw thousands of soldiers standing on the ship's deck, each one clad in dark-gold armor that was emanating a faint golden glow.

They all held long spears in their hands, and there were what looked like tiny ships hovering over their shoulders.

They were from the Eternal Civilization!

Ye Guan's curiosity was piqued. Among the three civilizations of the Old Lands, the Eternal Civilization was a technological civilization. They pursued the path of technology, rather than martial arts.

He observed the soldiers' high-tech power with great interest. It was clear that their armors were anything but ordinary. They looked extremely futuristic, but how powerful were they, really?

Just then, the soldiers parted to let a woman step forward. She was wearing a white mecha armor that accentuated her slender figure. Her deep purple hair was tied into a ponytail, giving her a striking, heroic presence.

A mechanical sword was in her right hand, and the sword's blade was emanating a strange, eerie glow.

The woman noticed Ye Guan and frowned.

Ye Guan responded with a friendly smile.

However, she ignored him and led the group of mechanical soldiers toward a distant planet. They were heading toward the Old Lands!

Watching them disappear into the distance, Ye Guan shook his head with a chortle. He was genuinely curious about the Eternal Civilization. After all, his mother was also an expert in technology.

Ye Guan sighed softly upon remembering his mother. Who knows where Mother is right now? Although I can't contact her directly, perhaps asking my family for some financial support to develop isn't too much to ask, is it?

He couldn't help but chuckle at the thought of that. The next time he saw his mother, he would surely ask her for something.

This time, however, he was going to be smarter. He wouldn't ask for money from this civilization. Instead, he'd demand funds from the next one, or even the one after that!

Emptying his mind, Ye Guan disappeared into the distance.

Just as he was about to reach the Old Lands Starry Region, a powerful divine sense enveloped him.

A mysterious voice echoed in his ears. "Unidentified individual. Entry denied."

Unidentified? Ye Guan was momentarily stunned.

Just then, an old man suddenly appeared before him. He stared indifferently at Ye Guan and asked, "You're an outsider?"

Ye Guan nodded.

The old man's voice was cold as he said, "To enter the Old Lands, you must obtain a temporary identification document. The minimum duration is three days, and the maximum is one year."

Ye Guan was speechless. Damn it! I still have to get an identification document?

Ye Guan said, "Give me a one-year pass."

The old man replied, "That will be thirty thousand Pure-grade emperor crystals."

"What?" Ye Guan exclaimed in shock. "A one-year pass costs thirty thousand pure-grade emperor crystals?!"

The old man glanced indifferently at him. "Is there a problem?"

Ye Guan's face darkened slightly. This place was simply ridiculous. He had some pure-grade emperor crystals, but this was way too expensive.

Noticing the old man's unfriendly gaze, Ye Guan quickly adjusted his attitude and said, "No problem... I'll take a one-month pass instead."

He took out some emperor crystals and handed them over.

The old man glanced at him, accepted the crystals, and retrieved a special crystal token. The old man handed it to Ye Guan and warned, "If you stay in the Old Lands for longer than a month, you'll be executed immediately."

After saying that, the old man turned and vanished into thin air.

Ye Guan examined the crystal token briefly before putting it away. Without hesitation, he soared into the sky on his sword and disappeared. Before long, he arrived at the most prosperous city in the Old Lands, the Heavenly Capital.

The Heavenly Capital City was built through the combined efforts of the three civilizations. It was the largest and most bustling metropolis in all of the Old Lands Starry Region.

As soon as he arrived, he saw a colossal, starry Great Dao river above him. The river spanned hundreds of thousands of meters in length, extending from where he stood all the way into the heart of the city.

It was tens of thousands of meters wide, and the river was made of stars. Ye Guan looked down and saw an endless river of stars beneath his feet as well.

He was stunned, realizing that the river was not just an optical illusion. It was an actual river of stars. It was compressed and laid here through an unimaginable method.

The Heavenly Capital was at the end of the starry river. The sheer size of this city completely exceeded Ye Guan's imagination. The city was suspended, and its architecture was magnificent and awe-inspiring.

The city walls were forged from a mysterious pale-gold stone that shimmered brilliantly. Within the city, towering buildings stood, piercing into the firmament.

At that moment, he felt incredibly insignificant. It was like he was a poor village boy stepping into a big city for the first time.

Little Pagoda said, "Damn... This is insane."

He, too, was utterly stunned by this city.

Walking along the river of stars, Ye Guan grew increasingly excited and asked, "Master Pagoda, should we try storing this entire city inside the pagoda?"

After a brief silence, Little Pagoda replied, "If your aunt were here, I'd totally dare to do it."

Ye Guan burst into laughter.

Soon, he reached the city's entrance. Standing before this enormous city, he could not help but feel tiny.

When he stepped inside, he was struck by the unparalleled splendor of the city's architecture. He had no idea what materials these buildings were made from, but they all emanated a radiant but not blinding glow.

However, what shocked him the most was how dense the spiritual energy was in the city. It was at least ten thousand times denser than the spiritual energy inside the tiny pagoda! It was simply unbelievable!

The quality of the spiritual energy here was on an entirely different level. Compared to this, even pure-grade Supreme Emperor Origin Essence was nothing but garbage.

In an instant, Ye Guan lost interest in the Supreme Emperor Origin Essence inside his pagoda. For the first time, he felt a little self-conscious.

So this is how wealthy high-tier civilizations are! If Little White were here, it'd be great. That little rascal could probably sweet-talk their entire Ancestral Spiritual Vein right out of this place!

He sighed. He was really broke right now.

Unbeknownst to Ye Guan, Sui Gujin and a group of advisors were staring at a light screen depicting him.

"What the fuck!" Ye Guan exclaimed. He quickly ran toward a statue near the city gate, carefully touching and examining it. His eyes lit up with excitement.

"Master Pagoda, look! This is made of Pure-grade emperor crystals! Wait... no, these aren't Pure-grade emperor crystals. These are the legendary pure-grade divine source crystals! Holy shit!"

Pure-grade divine source crystals! These were far superior to emperor crystals, and one divine source crystal could be exchanged for at least ten thousand Pure-grade emperor crystals!

Ye Guan looked around to check for witnesses. Then, he stuffed the statue into the tiny pagoda and bolted.

Everyone in the Strategist Pavilion was at a loss for words.
