Chapter 245 Awakening, Shedding One's Skin
Li Jie froze on the spot, then burst into wild joy.
In a few breaths, he had already calmed himself down. Ignoring the menacing Asgardian legion, he casually tossed the Immortal-Slaying Sword into the air.
Immediately afterwards, he gently uncorked the gourd bottle at his waist and pointed at it.
Upon receiving Li Jie's summons, the Immortal-Trapping Sword within the Sword-Nourishing Gourd suddenly burst forth with a bright red light, instantly breaking through the restrictions and arriving in the Netherworld City.
With the arrival of the Legend of Sword and Fairy, the space within a 500-meter radius of Li Jie was slightly distorted.
Odin and the others, who were some distance away, could no longer see Li Jie's figure clearly.
"Is it that stealth technique again?"
Odin looked at Li Jie, whose figure was appearing and disappearing, and asked in confusion.
Now, Thor didn't know how to explain it either.
If that distorted space was merely a simple concealment technique, that would be one thing. With their lightning net and Heimdall's Eye of Truth tracking, no matter where he fled to, as long as he remained within Asgard, they would surely be able to capture this mortal from Great Xia.
But now the problem is that the connection to the ThunderNet is having some kind of problem, and my senses are becoming intermittent.
At this thought, he remembered the mess he had made before, and in order to clear himself of any wrongdoing, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak up.
“Father, there’s something strange about that space.”
"Oh?"
"After the space began to distort, it seemed that there were some problems with my connection to the lightning network with that sinner. When I could no longer see him, the connection of the lightning network was almost cut off."
"I think we should take him down as soon as possible, otherwise... things might change if we delay."
Upon hearing Thor's explanation, Odin nodded in deep agreement. He had personally experienced the boy's strangeness, and even with such a large security force deployed, he still managed to escape.
So Asgard has really lost face this time...
Bringing his thoughts back, Odin raised his spear and slammed it down in mid-air, his aged and majestic voice ringing out at the same time.
"King's Guard, bring that criminal to me!"
"Yes!"
As the undisputed king of Asgard, Odin commands the most elite royal guard among all the gods.
He would never use this force for anything other than invading and defending against enemy attacks.
But just as Thor roused him, he could no longer sense the presence of the Dwarf King.
There can only be two reasons: one is that the old bastard has already left Asgard.
another one......
He is already dead, but the second possibility is extremely slim.
How could a person possibly kill a god?
Even so, to avoid any unforeseen circumstances, he still awakened the sleeping Royal Guard.
At Odin's command, hundreds of soldiers clad in gleaming gold armor formed assault teams of six and charged toward Li Jie, who was trapped in the distorted space.
Seeing this, Thor breathed a sigh of relief.
Luckily I informed him in advance, otherwise if that kid had really run away, my father would probably have taken his anger out on me.
........
Within the distorted space, Li Jie looked at the crimson immortal sword floating in front of him and finally felt a sense of relief after all his suffering.
During this period, he suffered countless hardships because of the third immortal sword that was sealed in the western border of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Fortunately, the Immortal-Trapping Sword finally overcame that hurdle, shedding its former glory and undergoing a complete transformation.
Sensing the unified aura, Li Jie finally confirmed that there was no longer any abnormal aura within the Immortal Trapping Sword.
"woke up?"
Sensing the unusual aura behind him, Li Jie smiled slightly and calmly spoke.
"I'm awake. I'm sorry, I..."
"Let's not talk about that. Right now... getting back alive is what we should be thinking about."
Indeed, the strange aura that Li Jie sensed was the sword spirit of the two swords, Trapping Immortal and Absolute Immortal, which had floated out of the sword-nurturing gourd after awakening.
Just now, Hong had used her spatial laws to separate the space within a 500-meter radius around Li Jie from the Netherworld City-State.
Now, finally, we can give him some breathing room.
Li Jie flew to the edge of the shimmering golden barrier, stroked the solid wall in front of him, and asked a question.
"Can you take us out?"
"Of course, but... wouldn't that be letting them off too easily...?"
"Oh?"
Upon hearing Hong's voice, an unusual light suddenly appeared in Li Jie's eyes.
He turned around and looked at the two women's ambiguous smiles, and suddenly understood something.
"With me here, relying on the laws of space, even if my own strength has not recovered to its peak, I can still run away at any time."
"However... that would have been rather embarrassing."
"Since they're here, why not leave them some gifts?"
"This battle is perfect for establishing our authority over the divine kingdoms of the heavens. Let's see who dares to covet us four sisters!"
"Then what are you going to do?"
"If we can't bully the old ones, then we'll bully the young ones and, while we're at it, plunder their treasure trove..."
Upon hearing Li Jie's question, Hong replied with a mischievous grin.
Her mischievous eyes darted around, and seeing her like this, Li Jie suddenly felt a deep sense of disconnect.
The personality of this Immortal Sword Spirit... seems a little different, huh?
Seeing Li Jie's surprised expression, Xiao Jue gave Hong a sharp rap on the head.
"Be normal, this isn't a game of make-believe."
The latter winced in pain, clutched his head, and gave Xiao Jue a resentful look.
Then, with a single wave of her hand, she completely tore apart the surrounding space, and flew back to the Divine Realm with two swords and a person.
"Is this really okay?"
Having broken through the golden barrier and flown back from the Netherworld City-State to the main temple of Asgard, Li Jie looked at the lax defenses and asked softly.
"Relax, those idiots will be completely fooled by the projection clones I left behind."
"Didn't you go to that treasure vault? What kind of amazing treasures are inside?"
Hong Xiao waved her hand and asked Li Jie with a very arrogant air.
"There aren't many good things, but they're definitely better than ordinary things."
Seeing Hong's actions, Li Jie couldn't help but chuckle. After thinking for a moment, he spoke calmly.
"The three best divine artifacts are probably with Odin right now, so let's not even consider them. The rest are just armor, weapons, and some other miscellaneous items..."
"Never mind, let's go and take a look first."
Li Jie talked on and on, but in the end, Hong, very annoyed, stepped forward and covered his mouth. With a raised eyebrow, she led them towards the back garden.
"Who would hide their good stuff out there...? Maybe... there really is something unexpectedly good inside!"
