True Solution of the Sword Dao-Chapter 64 - 60 Cooperation
Chapter 64: Chapter 60 Cooperation
Chapter 64 -60 Cooperation
The wind whistled past my ears, and the green and brown leaves and grass under my feet rapidly retreated backwards. That extremely cool feeling in the forest permeated all the heat from Lin Fei’s body bit by bit.
As Lin Fei got closer and closer to the predetermined red dot, he stopped once again and took out his cellphone to check, but still found no signal on it. Not even turning it on and off made a difference—it was clearly controlled by the master control end from above.
“That means they can keep tabs on me at any time. Sure enough, it’s a cannon fodder mission. No wonder the mortality rate is so high,” Lin Fei silently calculated his upcoming situation.
Reaching a large tree surrounded by bushes, he squatted down and fully concealed himself. Then, he took out Bear Claw and carved a directional arrow into the tree trunk, marking his path. Along the way, he had chosen several large trees like this as landmarks. Just as he was about to stand up and continue on his way, he suddenly heard faint voices nearby. The accent was strange—it seemed to be Korean.
“…check this area over….they are about to come….”
“Yes!”
The voices came and went with the wind. But the distinct sound of footsteps rustling through the bushes could be heard clearly.
Lin Fei crouched in the bushes, recalling the mission requirements explained on the plane: anyone who is not from his own team can be eliminated.
“That means, starting now, I can kill every South Korean person I encounter,” he thought.
However, at this moment, an inexplicable palpitation surged up from within Lin Fei’s heart. It felt as though something wanted to burst out of his chest, and his heart throbbed like a large drum, incessantly pounding against his ribcage.
“What is this…?” he clenched his chest, his spirit unwittingly entering the pages of Sword Dao True Solution.
Now, he finally saw the back cover of this mysterious secret manual. In the middle of the back cover was a diamond-shaped recess, seemingly meant to hold something.
At the same time, a stream of information naturally flowed into his brain.
“Inset the True Force Core on the back cover for cultivators to use in the latter two stages of cultivation. If the True Force seed is damaged, one can also draw True Force from the True Force Core to form a minor circulation and recongeal it,” concluded an annotation that seemed to be left by an unnamed powerful being.
“Sword Dao True Solution offends the heavens, thus I have removed the core to preserve the incomplete,” it read.
The rush within Lin Fei’s chest vanished in an instant at this moment, but a strange connection seemed to link him from afar. He had a weird feeling that the other end of this link was definitely where the missing True Force Core of the Sword Dao True Solution was located.
“Is this the complete Sword Dao True Solution?” A trace of ecstasy flashed in Lin Fei’s eyes. All this time, his progress had become increasingly slow and even started to stall because he lacked the True Force seed. He had never imagined that the Sword Dao True Solution still had a missing piece, and now the whereabouts of this piece seemed apparent.
“That direction?” Lin Fei looked in the direction from where the link seemed to emanate. It was precisely from where he had heard the voices of the South Koreans.
“Now there’s trouble. I only have the strength of a D-level, and small handguns might be manageable, but if I encounter submachine guns or other heavy firearms, I’ll definitely be unable to defend myself. However, in this day and age, I haven’t heard of South Korea having military disputes with any country. It’s unlikely that they would deploy regular troops, so by that logic, we’re likely to encounter only special forces, probably operating in large units.”
As the footsteps drew nearer, Lin Fei, hidden in the bushes, tensed up, ready to bolt at high speed.

Unexpectedly, when the bushes parted, what appeared were four or five men and women dressed like ordinary people. They wore all kinds of clothes, each looking pale and tense. Even someone new to the battlefield like Lin Fei could tell they were greenhorns.
“What should we do now, Caiyuan?” The man leading the way asked in Chinese, turning to consult with a woman in the middle of their group.
Lin Fei’s gaze instantly fell upon this woman.
Neither tall nor short, she stood at an average height, her shoulder-length hair neatly tied at the back of her head, her skin was fair and delicate, her face beautiful—a very standard Korean beauty. However, her eyes shone with a sharp and calm luster.
“According to the information we have, the combatants from both sides will enter this area later on. We’ve accelerated and jogged ahead, likely having shaken off most of the enemies and other teams. What we need to do now is to quickly get everything ready,” the woman known as Caiyuan signaled a man behind her to put down his backpack and rummage through it. She casually pulled out a handful of black granules resembling sand.
“Li Yinghao, go and scatter these sensors in all the areas nearby.”
“Alright, Miss Caiyuan,” a man with short, choppy hair in their team responded, taking the black granules she handed over.
Lin Fei knew by now that if these sensors were laid down and activated, he’d be unable to stay hidden. He decided to take action. Although he was unsure about this group’s equipment, there was another pressing reason: the South Korean woman named Caiyuan was the source of the link from Sword Dao True Solution.
With the True Force Core, he could form the True Force seed. Given the current situation, he could only continue to practice the subsequent Cultivation Technique with the True Force. Without it, only having the first two diagrams of the First Realm’s First Layer, he had no means to withstand what lay ahead. Moreover, if the cool aura he felt last time was indeed True Force, it would strongly fortify and modify his body, even providing a short-term boost in strength.
All these reasons made it impossible for Lin Fei to let these South Koreans go.
From within the bushes, Lin Fei narrowed his eyes slightly, his right hand gently touching the Longsword Ring.
“Hiss.” The ring slowly revealed a sliver of silver.
“Chi!” In an instant, a silver arc flashed through the air.
Lin Fei’s whole body surged out in an instant, his feet pushing off the trunk of a nearby tree for leverage as he lunged toward the two people at the front of the team.
The person at the front had just managed to reach inside their clothes, seemingly to draw a weapon, when a silver arc had already sliced through their throat, leaving behind only a thin red line.
The silver arc flashed abruptly again, and two more people in the team gasped softly, clutching their throats as they slowly fell to the ground.
Lin Fei pushed off the tree trunk once more, shooting through the entire squad like an arrow. The last male team member slowly toppled to the ground.
His feet gently leaped up and landed on a large rock.
“Sword Heart Chain,” he said, pointing the longsword horizontally.
Countless silver arcs spun out rapidly, and in a blink, the whole world seemed to be engulfed in silver. The surrounding forest was suddenly filled with two screams, followed by the sound of two more bodies hitting the ground.
Unexpectedly, that woman managed to remain calm, standing still on the spot, looking up at Lin Fei who stood on the rock.
“Aren’t you afraid of me?” Lin Fei asked with a hint of interest as he looked at the woman.
“Why should I be afraid of you?” the woman replied fluently in Chinese. “Human life is as fragile as a handful of sand. It can be crushed with ease.”
Lin Fei was taken aback for a moment and stared closely into her eyes. There was no fear or hesitation in them, only his own reflection clearly etched in her black pupils.
“Interesting.”
“You and I are the same kind of people. Let’s cooperate,” the woman proposed calmly.
“Cooperate? What makes you think you have the qualifications to cooperate with me?” Lin Fei closed the longsword gently. “Before that, throw out everything you have on you.”
“Ok.” Surprisingly cooperative, the woman began stripping off her clothes. Everything on her, a cellphone, a black box, a silver necklace, earring-style poison needles, a lipstick, two small knives, and a black handgun, was all thrown onto the grass in front of her.
“What’s in the black box?” Without looking at her naked form, Lin Fei’s gaze dropped slightly to the black box on the ground.
“A diamond-shaped crystal. One of the artifacts being escorted this time,” the woman answered calmly.Lin Fei’s heart gave a sudden jolt.
“Open it.”
The woman seemed somewhat puzzled but still crouched down and gently opened the box towards Lin Fei.
Immediately, a chicken egg-sized transparent diamond-shaped crystal appeared before Lin Fei.
“That’s it!” Lin Fei felt numerous streams of heat surging wildly in his chest as if they were about to burst forth from within.
“Throw the crystal here,” he uttered with a deep voice.
“No problem,” said the woman, her face calm as she gently took the crystal out of the box, about to throw it to Lin Fei.
Suddenly, she rolled over to pick up the handgun at her feet and fired two shots at Lin Fei.
“Hum!” A blue totem instantly emerged.
Lin Fei turned into a shadow in a blink and fiercely collided with the woman.
“Bang!”
Their bodies slammed against the tree trunk, with leaves drifting down slowly. Two bullets clattered and fell into the bushes.
“Cough cough…” The woman coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood.
Lin Fei retracted his right elbow from her lower abdomen and took two steps back.
The woman slowly slid down along the trunk to the ground.
“Now, tell me how we cooperate,” Lin Fei said lightly, pinching the colorless crystal.
