Dig Up the Sun Emperor's Legacy: I Build an Invincible Undead Legion-Chapter 133: Close Enough to Touch the Sun

Did these terrifying creatures show up because he summoned the Sun Emperor’s Sword too early?

Or was it because of deliberate cover-up by the player who published the guide in his previous life?

Right now, Carlos couldn’t spare time to think about stuff like that.

His expression was dead serious.

Although, thanks to the Desolate Desert’s restrictions on spirituality, these creatures couldn’t punch through the spirit realm’s outer membrane and show up in the boundary zone,

this area was equally invaded by spirit realm power.

While their true forms couldn’t come down, they could launch terrible attacks directly.

Even with the Desolate Desert’s rules limiting their power, it would still be enough to wipe out all life in the boundary zone.

Including the twelve Redrose Shield Guards.

"Got to time this perfectly—end the resonance ceremony before these creatures spot the boundary zone!"

The resonance secret array had broken the boundary between material and spirit realms at this location.

Once the resonance secret array ended, the fused boundary between realms would naturally disappear.

Once the boundary vanished, without special ceremonial help, it would be nearly impossible for these terrifying creatures to drop down to the material realm.

Carlos held his breath and focused—this timing wasn’t easy to nail down.

In his vision, the golden light that was the Sun Emperor’s Sword moved incredibly fast, with the terrifying creatures behind in hot pursuit.

If the resonance array ended too early, the Sun Emperor’s Sword wouldn’t have broken through the spirit realm’s outer membrane.

This summoning operation that had cost so much effort would end in complete failure.

But if it ended even slightly too late, those terrifying creatures would inevitably spot the anomaly and might launch horrible long-range attacks.

"Timing! Timing!"

Pushing aside all distracting thoughts, only that increasingly brilliant golden light remained in his eyes!

Closer! Closer!

The rapidly moving golden light got nearer and nearer to the spirit realm’s outer membrane...

"Boom!"

A ’radiant sun’ broke through the boundary!

And plummeted toward the boundary zone at breakneck speed!

In an instant, incredibly dazzling golden light spread out, completely lighting up the colorless boundary zone!

The golden light contained extremely terrifying spiritual energy.

Tons of spirit realm creatures dissolved away—the faceless monster groups were completely gone, all turning into golden light and fading out.

"Now!"

Carlos’s eyes flashed with brilliant light.

The twelve Redrose Shield Guards serving as nodes immediately jumped out of the resonance array.

With nodes gone and patterns severed, the resonance array immediately failed...

All this happened in just an instant.

That group of high-level spirit realm creatures had chased right up to the spirit realm’s outer membrane.

Just as they were about to catch that damned golden light, suddenly the boundary between spirit and material realms started rapidly disappearing.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"..."

The high-level spirit realm creatures got all worked up, launching waves of terrifying attacks trying to destroy that damned golden light and blow off some steam!

But though the distance between them seemed close, it was actually like trying to grab the moon’s reflection in water.

This group of high-level spirit realm creatures immediately realized the damned golden light had escaped the spirit realm.

They all let out frustrated roars:

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"..."

Several terrifying attacks shattered distant void but couldn’t break open the passage between realms...

The attack aftershocks unfortunately hit surrounding creatures who’d been watching the show, immediately triggering counterattacks from these creatures.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"..."

Without question, they started fighting, wildly blowing off steam!

Just then, several groups of frenzied creatures showed up.

That damned golden light was nowhere to be seen!

Their fury had nowhere to go.

Suddenly, an attack from who knows where nailed them.

Now their pent-up rage exploded—without even looking, they charged into the brawl ahead...

But this was only the beginning...

The battle’s aftershocks kept spreading outward. Spirit realm tribes and high-level creatures, whether they wanted to or not, got dragged into this inexplicably caused chaotic battle.

More and more creatures joined the free-for-all with no sign of stopping—it actually started sweeping across the entire spirit realm...

....

Desolate Desert, Pure White Salt Lands.

The twelve Redrose Shield Guards had returned to the material realm, their semi-transparent bodies back to normal.

"Sun Emperor’s Sword!"

Carlos felt incredibly pumped, his gaze burning as he stared at the sky.

There, a golden greatsword radiating incredibly terrifying sharpness hung suspended!

The blade was entirely crimson-gold with intricate patterns flickering with solar radiance, like a radiant sun lighting up the earth!

Noble! Majestic! Powerful!

Everyone who saw it would automatically think this was a king’s sword!

Only noble emperors were worthy of wielding it!

"Bang!"

The Crimson-Gold Feathered Serpent Wings spread, Dawn Flame rose, flame wings flapped.

Carlos flew up to the Sun Emperor’s Sword.

The Sun Emperor’s Sword floated quietly, patterns on its blade flickering, seemingly waiting for the birth of a new master!

Carlos took a deep breath and slowly reached out toward that ancient hilt...

The Sun Emperor’s Sword showed no reaction. Carlos successfully grabbed the hilt.

[Sun Emperor’s Sword]

[The lost Sun Empire’s Sun Emperor’s sword, once symbolizing the never-falling imperial court!]

[Quality: Gold~Deep Red]

[Sharpness: 59~79]

"Deep Red!!!" freewebnøvel.coɱ

Just at first glance, Carlos’s pupils contracted, his face filled with disbelief and extreme excitement!

Gold quality spirit gear was already the top of the heap in the mundane world.

Every piece floating around out there packed extremely terrifying enhancements.

Enough to let an ordinary Psionic dominate their tier or even take on higher tiers!

Above gold quality spirit gear at the mundane pinnacle were red quality spirit gear that only Golden Apostles (Spirituality 60-69) were qualified to access, also called Apostle Equipment.

These could grant apostles extremely terrifying ability boosts.

But the Sun Emperor’s Sword’s quality fluctuation maximum was way more than that!

Deep Red!

This had entered the domain of Throne Equipment!

Enough to trigger terrifying storms that would shake the human continent!

Just as Carlos was shocked beyond belief, the Sun Emperor’s Sword suddenly trembled.

"Bang!"

It actually broke free from Carlos’s hand.

Floating in mid-air while deliberately keeping its distance from Carlos.

The sun-flower patterns on the blade flickered bright and dim, seemingly showing disdain for Carlos.

Carlos was about to reach out and grab it again when he suddenly realized something and stopped.

"Sigh, as expected, not satisfied."

In the instant of touching the Sun Emperor’s Sword, Carlos had already understood the various requirements for gaining its recognition.

[Equipment Requirements: Strength 20, Constitution 20, Sun Emperor’s Court Swordsmanship Level 10, Sun Emperor Sunflower Bloodline, Sun Emperor Court Recognition, Pass Nine-Layer Radiant Sun Baptism...]

Not only were there the attribute requirements and maxed Sun Emperor’s Swordsmanship restrictions published by that player, but also bloodline restrictions, court recognition, baptism trials, and other harsh limitations.

If he truly had to meet these restrictions, Carlos couldn’t possibly gain the Sun Emperor’s Sword’s recognition in the short term.

Carlos wasn’t discouraged—he had other tricks up his sleeve.
