At foothold No.7A28, also known as Peaceful City.

Grade-A super-sized footholds usually had populations that ranged in the hundreds of millions.

Similarly, Peaceful City had a population of 280 million people and there were approximately 400 million of people if people who passed through the foothold was included.

Apparently, Peaceful City was able to accommodate a large number of people.

Before Lin Huang arrived at the A-grade foothold, he imagined how it would look like but when he arrived, he realized that it was vastly different from what he imagined.

He thought that there would be various skyscrapers and modern buildings but most of them were ancient buildings instead. On the contrary, there were only a small number of modern buildings there. There was an ancient tower, an ancient pagoda, and an ancient rampart. Most of the buildings retained their historical charm.

Even the houses of most ordinary residents had a historical feel to it. The houses sported red bricks and green tiles. It was a prosperous historic city.

Lin Huang had booked a hotel located in a high-rise building at the center of the foothold. He then checked into the hotel and went to his room on the 81st floor.

He went up the staircase to his room which was No.081029.

The room was spacious. The walls were completely made of transparent tiles. It was a special kind of artificial tiling with a crystal-like transparency which was both strong and ductile. Lin Huang could clearly see cities which were 10 kilometers away from him.

"It seems like it is good to stay on the upper floors, though." Looking down at the scenery, Lin Huang no longer thought of changing to another hotel.

There was also a big balcony facing south equipped with a set of balcony chairs and a table.

He sat for a while on the balcony, feeling the wind blow against him.

"The overall impression of the hotel is good." Lin Huang was satisfied with the hotel. He then went to the living room and began planning his schedule for the next few days.

The portal ticket he booked earlier could be used after 33 days. 12 days had passed and he planned to stay at Peaceful City for another 21 days.

Lin Huang was not going to stay idle during the 21 days. Ever since he found out that there were three transcendent levels ranked above gold-level, his resolve was more focused than ever.

After cleaning the living room, he began to practice Wildfire Sword skill from eight o'clock in the morning until 11 o'clock at night for several days. Putting aside time taken for his meals, he practiced for about 14.5 hours each day.

The number of sword skill pieces accumulated increased.

On the sixth day, he had accumulated 1000 Wildfire Sword pieces.

A notification from Xiao Hei finally came.

"You have accumulated Wildfire Sword sword skill pieces x1,000. It can be integrated into a Rare sword Skill Card. Would you like to integrate this card?"

"Integrate." Lin Huang immediately nodded his head.

Under normal circumstances, only 300 pieces were required to complete the integration of a Rare level sword Skill Card. However, for the Wildfire Sword skill, the notification to integrate was received only when 1,000 sword skill pieces were accumulated.

"Integrating Wildfire Sword skill pieces x1,000"

"Congratulations, you have gained a Rare skill - Wildfire Sword."

Lin Huang immediately tapped open the Skill Card.

"Skill Card"

"Skill Card Name: Wildfire Sword"

"Rarity: Rare"

"Skill Type: Sword"

"Skill Level: Unavailable"

"Status: Available"

"Card Remarks: Passable"

"What Xiao Hei meant by 'skill level is unavailable' was that this skills is beyond gold-rank sword skills and is usable even when one is at the level of a transcendent." Lin Huang had familiarized himself with Xiao Hei's ambiguous descriptions after a period of time.

"Xiao Hei, I remember you telling me that as long as sufficient skill pieces were collected, Wildfire Sword can be upgraded to Epic level without the need for an Advancement Card. Now that I have a complete set of Skill Cards, does it mean that I'll obtain one skill piece each time I practice this skill?" Lin Huang was not sure how it worked.

"You won't obtain a new skill piece by directly using the Wildfire Sword skill. You must create your own moves based on Wildfire Sword's moves. If the newly created moves can pass the evaluation, you will then be given a new skill piece.

"What is the evaluation criterion?" Lin Huang immediately asked.

"It depends on whether it meets the Dao of the Sword. If it does, it'll pass the evaluation. Otherwise, it'll fail the evaluation."

"Dao of the Sword…" That term sounded mysterious.

He opened the Heart Network and started looking for information on this term. There was no exact description of this term found on the network.

He stopped right before he called Yi Zheng because his second identity would be revealed. He changed his mind and started practicing with his sword again.

He had spent the whole afternoon practicing with his sword. He was puzzled that he had not gotten even a single skill piece yet.

"What the hell is the Dao of the Sword?" Lin Huang was in deep thought, stroking his chin. A thought suddenly flashed through Lin Huang's mind, "Dao of the Sword is required in order to upgrade a sword skill from Rare level to Epic level. The Epic level Great Sword Scripture that I possess should contain the Dao of the Sword…"

Lin Huang continued practicing the Great Sword Scripture instead of Wildfire Sword.

As he practiced the Great Sword Scripture, he felt a mysterious aura lingering around him. The feeling was unique, allowing him to feel every single detail when he practiced this skill. When he was p
