Chapter 1056: Chapter 100: Where Is There a Path to Immortality? (62) — Green Lotus Sword Song
“Master, this mountain is really strange. We have been flying for so long, yet there is no decrease in distance whatsoever.”
Above the clouds, two figures were swiftly flying toward the mountain peak emerging from the mist.
The high-speed movement had split a long gap in the clouds.
Suddenly, the two figures came to a halt.
Upon closer inspection, you would find that only one of them was flying, while the other was being held by the collar and carried along.
Su Zijun and Jessica.
Arriving at the scene of the Jade Dragon Pillar’s appearance almost simultaneously with the Dao Monster, and being transported here by the power released by the Jade Dragon Pillar, they had been flying continuously for a while.
The towering mountain peak had instantly bee Su Zijun’s target—she speculated that not only she but everyone present at that time was likely transported to this place.
So instead of wasting time searching for people, it was better to head toward this obvious target; perhaps they might encounter someone.
However, what Su Zijun didn’t expect was that the mountain peak seemed impossible to fly over.
“Tsk, do we have to walk on the ground… What a waste of time by design.” Su Zijun was quite annoyed at the moment—she preferred simple, straightforward, and massive things.
“Master, there seems to be something over there.”
Suddenly, Jessica pointed to the left front. Su Zijun followed her gaze, frowned, then took Jessica and flew over immediately.
The airflow dispersed the clouds, revealing a faint blue light within them.
They quickly approached the source of the bluish light.
“What is this…” Jessica was surprised as she looked at the body of the light source, “A sword?”
Indeed, it was a sword.
The sword appeared quite ancient, not of modern craftsmanship.
It was standing vertically in the sky, concealed within the clouds, seemingly for a very long time?
At this time, Su Zijun reached out to grab the hilt of this ancient sword, but the moment her palm touched the hilt, the sword suddenly vibrated, and Su Zijun’s hand swiftly withdrew.
Jessica opened her eyes wide in shock, for in that instant, her powerful master’s hand was already covered in blood, with dozens of cuts on her palm.
Su Zijun looked down at her injured palm, pausing for a moment, “Such sharp Sword Intent… interesting.”
As she spoke, Su Zijun let out a cold laugh, and the bloody palm healed rapidly at an alarming speed.
She reached for the ancient sword again. But this time, her palm was covered with dark red demonic power!
When her palm grabbed the hilt of the ancient sword again, the sword vibrated once more—yet this time, Su Zijun’s hand did not let go, “A mere ancient sword, could it possibly pare to the Xuanyuan Sword… stay quiet!”
These words did not quiet the sword; instead, they intensified its ferocity!
At this moment, the blade of the ancient sword flashed with a brilliant cyan light, followed by countless sword Qi that shot out indiscriminately.
Su Zijun was slightly startled, momentarily unable to hold her grip, causing her to be repelled by the force of the ancient sword once more.
“Master!”
At the same time, Jessica screamed, and Su Zijun turned to see that Jessica had already been deeply wounded, with several deep cuts to the bone caused by the sword Qi released by the sword.
“Tsk!”
Su Zijun clicked her tongue, swiftly pulling Jessica back, as a dark red light shield enveloped both her and Jessica.
The sword Qi ceased after a moment of release.
The ancient sword quieted down, but the sword Qi surrounding it did not dissipate, forming into a lotus shape that protected the sword in its center.
Simple demonic power seemed ineffective against this ancient sword…
Su Zijun frowned; she could sense that the sword Qi, though released, contained a faint and elusive Sword Intent, which was not murderous but rather proud.
“The sword has pride… Seems like its master was not an ordinary person either.”
Releasing a breath, Su Zijun grew more enamored with the ancient sword, “But your master abandoned you here; what are you waiting for… No matter who your master is, I dare say I am not inferior to them.”
Taking a deep breath, Su Zijun reached for the ancient sword once again.
This time, however, her hand was covered not in demonic power but a bizarre force that made Jessica feel terrified… Yet, her master seemed to struggle greatly when using this power.
Jessica could see the heavy expression on Su Zijun’s face, her slightly constricted pupils… Jessica knew these reactions; they meant she was enduring some sort of pain.
At this moment, Su Zijun’s hand passed through the blue lotus surrounding the sword without obstruction, gripping the hilt once more.
“I am the legitimate inheritor of the Xuanyuan Sword, the avatar of the Xuanyuan Sword of China… Leader of all swords under heaven! Bow down and submit!”
The ancient sword trembled again, emitting a humming sound like a war song, not a lament!
It would not bow and submit!
An incredulous look crossed Su Zijun’s eyes—yet simultaneously, it fueled her petitive spirit.
She endured the Emperor’s Might rejecting Ba’s body, firmly grasping the hilt of the ancient sword.
“Jessica, hide behind me!” Su Zijun shouted.
Jessica shivered, then quickly clung to Su Zijun’s body and moved behind her.
At this moment, the sword Qi was like a violent storm; thousands of sword Qi burst forth, sweeping across the sky, instantly dispersing the clouds overhead!
Storm!
They seemed to be at the center of a storm of Sword Qi.
Su Zijun was struggling to hold on—a struggle mostly derived from the backlash from the two disagreeable powers within her body!
The sound of the ancient sword’s cries grew louder… It was then that a bright ‘clang’ was heard, and the ancient sword broke free from Su Zijun’s grasp, charging toward the ground in an instant.
“Master? Where did it go?”
Jessica distinctly felt a slight tremor in Su Zijun’s arm… Su Zijun simply lowered her head, frowning without speaking.
“I felt a sense of urgency and elation…”
Su Zijun pondered, “Perhaps it’s being summoned by its master; I’d like to see what kind of deity owns such a proud sword.”
Su Zijun flipped over and grabbed Jessica’s collar with one hand, rapidly falling toward the earth!
…
…
The stone forest seemed to have been half destroyed… I wonder if its originally labyrinthine formation capabilities can be preserved.
But that’s not the most important thing… Wang Hu thought.
On the huge and sharply defined hand armor, cracks were now all over it, like patterns, giving the hand armor a kind of broken beauty—it was actually damaged.
Putting Wang Hu in a state of doubting his life, aside from the third-stage power he mentioned he didn’t want to use, he’s now been knocked down: easily defeated.
Not only was the White Tiger Beast King Armor’s inherited secret treasure blown apart, but every bone in his body was also faintly aching, each muscle protesting in sorrow.
Wang Hu felt like a car destined for scrap forced to participate in a rally race, collapsing halfway on the track, billowing smoke.
He lay on the ground, above him was the powerful yet cheating tiny figure, and behind her were the endlessly appearing thunderballs.
Not far from him was the white-clad woman who fought him equally; she was struggling hard but hadn’t been knocked down like him and could barely move around the battlefield.
From this, the white-clad woman seemed slightly stronger than him.
In this short period, Wang Hu suffered several blows, making him doubt one thing—not if he was a bit inadequate after taking down the strongest of the Four Spirits Clan.
Or maybe it’s because this generation of the Four Spirits Clan isn’t generally strong enough… Legend has it that during the demon clan’s era, every demon capable of Divine Beast Transformation could move mountains and fill seas.
Cough cough.
Wang Hu coughed twice, spit out a mouthful of bloody phlegm.
Probably due to pride or a hidden unwillingness to lose, he forced himself to stand upright with legs almost breaking.
Such forced action made the already shattered White Tiger Beast King Armor disintegrate from his arms instantly.
Wang Hu fiercely glared at the indifferent old ghost; he found him truly hateful, wishing to punch him and rub mud on his face.
“Third Sister, just obediently admit your mistakes! For the sake of former rades, if you kneel and apologize, and massage my shoulders and legs, I might consider letting you go~”
A voice as vile as marrow floated into the battlefield.
This must be what a petty man revels in—though this old ghost has no ambition, settling for just a massage?
Wang Hu frowned; yet the scary little girl listens to this old ghost, which is troublesome indeed.
“Tai Yinzi, you never change.”
The white-clad woman stopped, fingers grazing, cyan sword light instantly cleaving a thunderball… she knew all too well that Gaia seemed to have endless energy.
The power of these thunderballs could blow away the White Tiger Beast King Armor in one hit!
Yet her mana was depleting rapidly every second; defeat was inevitable—while the opponent seemingly hadn’t exerted full strength.
It seemed Tai Yinzi’s mand was ‘capture,’ not ‘eliminate.’
“Little Junior Sister, even after so many years you’re still this way!” Tai Yinzi shook his head, suddenly furious, “What right do you have to reprimand me! I am the senior! Gaia, teach this brat a lesson!!”
“Tai Yinzi, perhaps you’ve forgotten I am still a customer of your boss… Dare you touch me?” The white-clad woman suddenly sneered.
Making Tai Yinzi suddenly hesitate…
She’d indeed bought two years’ time to stay at the club, served as a temporary maid, and nevertheless, served the boss.
With his boss’s tendency for some nostalgia, just in case…
Tai Yinzi’s face was uncertain, yet Gaia acted immediately upon orders, without any hesitation!
The thunderballs elongated abruptly… transforming from spheres into spears.
Now, numerous lightning spears floated behind Gaia!
The spears had penetrating power; getting struck would be far from pleasant!
“Don’t kill her! A lesson will do…” Tai Yinzi added gloomily, “Damn, staying down for two years is pleting the deal, isn’t it?”
Gaia’s lightning spears shot out!
Like a once-in-a-century meteor shower, only now it was a golden star rain falling!
Lightning spears easily destroyed the sword light the white-clad woman released, and after about ten seconds, a lightning spear penetrated her left shoulder.
Next, one struck her arm, her leg as well.
The lightning infused in her body burst forth; her cold face revealed pain—after a volley of spears, the white-clad woman was covered in scars.
Behind Gaia, more lightning spears emerged, seemingly endless… instilling despair in the white-clad woman’s heart.
Clutching her chest, the white-clad woman coughed up bloody phlegm, half kneeling on the ground.
Tai Yinzi glanced, slightly unsettled, gritted his teeth, and looked at Gaia, “Capture her.”
[Understood]
A colorful band, that once easily bound Wang Hu, shot from Gaia, targeting both the white-clad woman and Wang Hu.
After a few struggles, Wang Hu gave up, his eyes gloomy upon Tai Yinzi… as the Tiger King Pattern on his body slowly changed color, his pupils turning vertical…
Elsewhere, the injured white-clad woman was also tightly bound by the colorful bands. She bit her lip, gaze icy, also looking at Tai Yinzi.
“Little sister…” Tai Yinzi coldly snorted, daring not to meet her gaze, turning away.
“Wench, you better apologize quickly!”
Suddenly, a green light shot down from above!
The falling green light severed the connection between the colorful band and Gaia!
An ancient sword vertically floated on the ground, emitting a gentle sword hum.
At the same time, the gaze of both the white-clad woman and Tai Yinzi locked onto this ancient sword.
“Isn’t this…” Tai Yinzi exclaimed in terror, subconsciously stepping forward, eyes wide, voice trembling, “Isn’t this Master’s… Green, Green…”
From the white-clad woman’s mouth came the sword’s name, softly uttering, “Green Lotus Sword Song…”
