Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible

290 It’s a Blessing, Not a Disaster

Ye Jin looked at the necklace that she had been wearing since she was young in confusion.

“What’s going on?”

Ye Jin held the jade token and asked. Just now, this necklace was only slightly hot, but in just ten seconds, the temperature on it had already become a little scalding.

“This should be an energy resonance.”

!!

As Lin Ran spoke, he gestured for Ye Jin to look at the metal block.

At first, Ye Jin didn’t notice anything wrong. After Lin Ran reminded her, she realized that the soil near the metal block had turned from a moist dark brown to a dry light brown. This meant that the metal was also heating up.

“Energy resonance… What does that mean?”

Ye Jin repeated what Lin Ran said, but this clearly couldn’t help her understand.

“Uh…”

Lin Ran thought for a moment and didn’t know how to explain it, so he pointed in a direction. “Go over there first.”

Confused, Ye Jin did as she was told. After walking for nearly 30 steps, Lin Ran waved his hand to signal her to stop.

“Touch the necklace and see if there are any changes!”

When Ye Jin heard Lin Ran’s shout, she touched it tentatively and looked surprised. “The temperature is starting to drop! This is amazing!”

“Come back and try again!”

Lin Ran shouted again. Ye Jin grabbed the necklace and walked forward. She could clearly feel that as she got closer and closer to the metal, the necklace was getting hotter and hotter.

“This is energy resonance.”

Lin Ran explained seriously, “You can think of it as two magnets. When they’re far away, they’re about the same as ordinary stones, but when they’re close, they show the characteristics of magnets.”

“But they won’t suck together!”

“I’m just making an analogy!”

Lin Ran rolled his eyes and said helplessly, “If I’m not wrong, as long as you wear this material, you can become undetectable to divine sense.”

Ye Jin blinked to indicate that she didn’t understand. Lin Ran thought for a moment and asked, “Do you remember that I once asked you what technique you cultivated?”

“I remember.”

Ye Jin nodded. “You said you didn’t notice me when I approached you.”

“That’s right!”

Lin Ran clapped his hands and pointed at the metal at the side. “The situation now is the same as back then. I can see it and touch it, but there’s nothing in my divine sense.”

“Really?”

Ye Jin looked surprised. Although she did not have the ability to use her divine sense yet, she knew that it was a technique used by martial artists.

Lin Ran nodded. At the same time, he thought of something else. The material of the empress’s ruby necklace was almost identical to Ye Jin’s necklace. Could it be that they were both made of this metal?

Then, when the empress was wearing the ruby necklace, was she also undetectable to divine senses?

Speaking of which, Lin Ran had known the empress for so long, but he had never used his divine sense to investigate her. Of course, there was no need for that. He had to give it a try when he returned this time.

After making up his mind, Lin Ran patted the metal that was already a little hot. “According to the current situation, this should be what your father asked you to find.”

Ye Jin was stunned for a moment before coming to a realization. Her father said that she would know when she saw the ores she was looking for. What else could be more indicative than a heated necklace?

However, even after confirming this, Ye Jin was still a little hesitant. “Are we going to bring it back? Such a big thing will definitely attract a lot of attention. Besides… we don’t know what’s inside yet.”

Hearing this, Lin Ran suddenly remembered the hollow sound he had heard just now coming from inside. He sighed and said helplessly, “We have no way of knowing. My divine sense doesn’t work on it, and there’s not even a crack on the surface. However, this thing should be related to your father. Perhaps he knows something.”

Ye Jin nodded in agreement. “Then should we bring it back?”

“Forget it. Who knows if there’s any danger inside?”

As Lin Ran spoke, he waved his sword. In an instant, hundreds of sword energy surged out. After a wave of mud flew, the huge metal disappeared into the ground again.

Then, Lin Ran picked up a small stone. After leaving a wisp of sword intent in it, he placed it on the top of the metal. With another sword energy sweeping past, the ground returned to its original state before it was dug up.

After doing all this, Lin Ran dusted his hands and explained, “I’ve already left a mark here. Let’s go back to the city and ask your father first. If this thing is not dangerous, I’ll come back tonight to get it. This way, we can avoid attracting attention.”

“But there’s a curfew at night!”

Ye Jin reminded him. After saying that, she remembered Lin Ran’s identity and muttered, “I forgot that you’re a master. Curfew is not a problem for you at all.”

Lin Ran waved his hand and said, “Wait for me up there. I have to disguise this place a little more.”

“Is that necessary?”

Ye Jin looked at the ground and asked suspiciously, but she still turned around and walked away obediently.

After her figure disappeared into the weeds, Lin Ran immediately took off the wooden box on his back, opened the interlayer, and took out Black Shadow. Then, he circulated his internal energy to his hands and stabbed Black Shadow into the ground.

After grabbing another handful of weeds and scattering them on it to make sure that it was fully covered, Lin Ran heaved a sigh of relief.

Without Black Shadow, he could walk around the Iron City without worrying about being caught. At most, he would be interrogated. After all, those people had no evidence!

At the thought of this, Lin Ran felt much more relaxed. He turned around and followed the path to look for Ye Jin. However, after taking a few steps, his heart suddenly skipped a beat. He felt Liu Hongshan’s sword intent again!

The sword intent appeared in the south, about ten miles away. It sounded very far, but to a Half-Saint, this distance was a matter of a few seconds.

This time, Liu Hongshan stayed for a full three seconds before quickly leaving towards the south.

Lin Ran’s expression immediately turned solemn. If it was just an unintentional coincidence before, then this time, he was 100% certain that Liu Hongshan was deliberately trying to attract his attention.

If it were any other time, Lin Ran would definitely continue to ignore him. In any case, nothing good would come out of Liu Hongshan looking for him.

However, Lin Ran urgently needed to know what the memory he had lost was, so after hesitating for a few seconds, he finally decided to chase after him and ask!
