Immortal Skills - Chapter 673
673 Special Mission
Jiang Ming did not expect Master Long to give him such an important task. He suddenly became serious. “Shouldn’t this sword be given to Long Qingqing or someone else in the Long family? Why did you choose me?”
Master Long said helplessly, “There are fewer and fewer people in the Long family who can inherit the throne. Long Qingqing has never undertaken such a big mission. I’m afraid that she will be threatened if she does. I also hope that she can grow up happily and not suffer from the Long family’s internal conflicts.”
Seeing that Master Long had said so, Jiang Ming could not continue to say anything in refusal. He asked again, “Since it belongs to the Long family, can I use the sword that is compatible with the Dragon Sword?”
“Of course.” Master Long’s eyes lit up. “This sword has nothing to do with the family. As long as the sword accepts you, it should be fine!”
“Where is the White Demon Tower?”
Jiang Ming looked at Master Long.
Master Long thought for a moment, then took out a book from the bookshelf and placed it on the porcelain.
The bookshelf suddenly creaked and a door opened.
The door was covered with purple flowers. When the door was opened, the flowers bloomed fully.
“What are these flowers? How did they bloom in an instant?”
Jiang Ming noticed the flowers and became curious.
Master Long touched one of the flowers, and it started to bud again.
“These are budding flowers. They are nurtured with the blood of the Long family. Only the Long family has them.”
“Blood? Wouldn’t the members of the Long family be in trouble?”
Jiang Ming was a little surprised.
He did not like these flowers. He felt that these flowers should not have appeared.
“Don’t worry, the blood was given to us by the dead Long family members. They all want to contribute to the Long family so that they can feel a sense of belonging.”
Master Long reassured Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming sighed. “Their death is worth it. These family members have done their best for the Long family.”
“Yes, they are very happy to be able to contribute to the Long family.” Master Long became serious. “Let’s go in.”
Jiang Ming answered and went to the side of the Long family’s head, entering the door.
The moment he entered, the door closed.
Master Long snapped his fingers, and the room lit up.
The dazzling jewelry and treasures were displayed in front of the room. They were so dazzling that Jiang Ming could not open his eyes.
“I’m sorry.” Seeing Jiang Ming’s expression, Master Long coughed and raised his sleeves to cover them with a layer of golden gauze. “Lord Ning Caichen, you can open your eyes now.”
Jiang Ming opened his eyes and looked at the pile of gold.
At this moment, the golden mountain was no longer obvious, but one could still vaguely see the gold and silver jewelry on it.
Jiang Ming could not help but grin.
The Long family was really rich. They actually had so much jewelry.
Even he did not have so much.
“I’m sorry to make a fool of myself in front of you, Mr. Ning Caichen.” Master Long rubbed his nose in embarrassment. “These are all treasures accumulated by the Long family in the past. They are useless. If you want them, you can take them all.”
Jiang Ming was a little surprised.
Master Long was too generous. He could not afford to accept such a gift.
Seeing that Jiang Ming did not answer, Master Long quickly said, “I wanted to get rid of all of these, but I’m afraid that other families will notice the Long family, so I can only hide the things here.”
Master Long felt helpless.
Jiang Ming did not know what to say. He said, “I’m not interested in these treasures. Master Long, they can stay here.”
“Alright then.”
Master Long was a little dejected, but he quickly recovered. “Lord Ning Caichen, please follow me to the other side.”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and gestured for Jiang Ming to follow him. Jiang Ming obediently followed him and left.
Master Long led Jiang Ming around a thick wall. The wall was covered with the flowers that Master Long and Jiang Ming had just seen.
By the time Master Long and Jiang Ming arrived, all the flowers had already bloomed, as if they were welcoming Master Long and Jiang Ming.
Seeing these flowers, Jiang Ming’s mood also brightened up.
When they passed by the wall, a huge cave appeared in front of Jiang Ming and Master Long. However, the cave was covered by a layer of nothingness.
Jiang Ming could not see what was inside at all.
Master Long explained, “This cave hasn’t been opened for a long time, so there’s a protective mechanism. However, if a specific person is selected, that person can enter.”
Jiang Ming understood what Master Long meant and asked hesitantly, “So, only certain people can enter this cave, right?”
Master Long nodded and sighed. “I tried to go in before, but I was chased out. I don’t think I can go in now.”
“Lord Ning Caichen, if you can go in, then you can only go in alone. No one can accompany you when you enter this cave.”
Jiang Ming hesitated and looked at Master Long. He felt strange. “Master Long, why don’t we give it a try?”
Master Long was stunned for a moment and then looked at Jiang Ming. “No, Lord Ning Caichen, this is impossible. Someone once wanted to bring another person into this cave, but they didn’t succeed.”
Jiang Ming shook his head. “Everyone’s physique is different. Master Long, you have to be confident.”
Master Long pursed his lips and was silent for a while. Then, he opened his mouth again. “Let’s try it then.”
Jiang Ming brought Master Long to the entrance of the cave.
As the two of them approached, the entrance of the cave suddenly became clear, revealing the vortex inside.
Jiang Ming jumped down immediately. Initially, Master Long thought that he could not jump down at all. However, he suddenly realized that after Jiang Ming jumped down, the entrance of the cave was still the same as before. He was instantly shocked.
Ning Caichen had actually set a precedent at the entrance of the cave. What was going on? He did not think that Ning Caichen’s power could reach this level.
Could it be a coincidence? Perhaps this cave entrance was just an illusion?
Thinking of this, Master Long hesitated and jumped down. He did not expect to succeed.
He was even more stunned.
He had never thought that the entrance of the cave would really allow him to enter.
Closing his eyes, Master Long became excited.
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation. Meeting Ning Caichen was the most fortunate thing to have happened to him.
When his feet landed on the ground, Master Long opened his eyes.
Jiang Ming had already opened his eyes and looked at the surrounding scenery.
The scenery inside the cave was completely different. There were all kinds of strange creatures inside.
