C444 The Assassination of the Sword Immortal Palace
"Is that so? There's actually such a monument in the Heavenly-sword Palace?" Lee Shaoyu couldn't help but fall into deep thought. San Zang had been searching for these Black Stones all this time. What was his purpose? What was the difference between the stone monument in the Heavenly-sword Palace and the stone monument in the Solitary Village?2
In fact, Lee Shaoyu knew that there should be more than one stone monument when the stone monument was triggered in the Solitary Village. This was something left behind from the ancient times. Perhaps, the other stone monument was engraved with a peerless cultivation technique just like the one in the Solitary Village. Moreover, these stone monuments could form some kind of connection that would resonate with the environment at certain times.
The rise of the Heavenly-sword Palace was probably related to the stone monument. Just like the Tianhuang Sect back then, they had dominated the land because of the peerless cultivation technique engraved on the stone monument. However, the Heavenly-sword Palace was not destroyed halfway like the Tianhuang Sect. They were still the overlords of the continent. Now that he thought about it, the destruction of the Tianhuang Sect was also caused by the Divine Alliance in secret. It seemed that it was also because of that Black Stone.
Although the cultivation technique on each stone monument was an existence that surpassed the Sky-rank's cultivation technique and could create a supreme power, there was still a gap between them and the Divine Alliance that had the support of the Divine Clan. It seemed like these Black Stones were not only the carrier of the peerless cultivation techniques, but also had other uses. Otherwise, with the powerful foundation of the Divine Alliance, they wouldn't have spent so much effort on these cultivation techniques. As for the uses of these stone monuments... He didn't know about it yet, so he was afraid that he would have to ask San Zang or Yun Jiuxiao about it.
"Father, let's go. Since San Zang has already chosen to attack us, I don't think he will give up so easily. It will be safer when we enter the territory of the Tianyun Clan." Lee Shaoyu didn't speculate too much. After all, these things weren't something he could change. Currently, he wasn't strong enough.
"En, but what method did you use just now? That Zhuxin was killed in an instant. Why did you let Ye Linlang go with such a divine skill? Wouldn't it be better to kill him as well?" Lee Muzhe nodded, and the two of them began their journey.
"That's my strongest Pupil Technique. It only took one strike to exhaust all of my strength. It's not that I don't want to kill him, but I really don't have the strength to kill him." Lee Shaoyu couldn't help but let out a soft sigh. The Qi in his body rapidly weakened, and he immediately looked extremely weak.
Chi!
Just as Lee Shaoyu's aura weakened, the void in front of the two of them was suddenly cut open. A sword light suddenly slashed down from the void towards Lee Muzhe. The sword light was like a rainbow, and its aura shook the sky. A white-clothed figure appeared in front of the two of them.
A person from Sword Immortal Hall!
Lee Shaoyu instantly recognized his clothes' logo. It was actually a Air-breaking Stage medicinal Mighty from Sword Immortal Hall!
"Jian Wuji, why did you kill us?" Lee Muzhe's long blade crossed the sky and clashed with Lee Shaoyu. He shouted loudly. It turned out that this person was the previous generation disciple of the Sword Immortal Hall, Jian Wuji, Jian Chen's junior brother, and a Mid Air-breaking Stage Sword Dao Mighty. His strength was outstanding!
"Lee Muzhe, blame your good son for offending our ancestor, so you must die!" Jian Wuji coldly harrumphed. Ten swordsmen in white clothes rushed out from behind him. Each of them had an oppressive aura, and they were all Jian Wuji's followers. There were six of them who were at the Air-breaking Stage realm.
"Now that all the major powers have formed an alliance to fight against the Divine Clan, does Sword Immortal Hall want to break the alliance and become the common enemy of the continent?" Lee Muzhe roared. It seemed like Jian Wuji had been following them for a long time. They hadn't shown up during the life-and-death battle with the Divine Alliance, and now they were here to reap the benefits.
"What does fighting against the Divine Clan have to do with us? However, in order to stabilize the situation, you must die. We will inform the world that you were killed by Ye Linlang in order to fight against the Divine Alliance. If the alliance wins in the end, you will be rewarded." Jian Wuji laughed maniacally. The long sword in his hand slashed at Lee Muzhe one after another. His followers lunged at Lee Shaoyu, trying to capture him alive.
Run! " Lee Shaoyu shouted at Lee Muzhe. A pair of wings appeared on his back as he flew towards the direction of Liuyun Stage at high speed. Given his current condition, he didn't have the strength to fight at all. If he continued to fight, he would only die. Moreover, Jian Wuji was looking for him. As long as he escaped from Lee Muzhe's dangerous situation, he would naturally be able to escape.
"Don't let him escape. Capture him at all costs!" Jian Wuji pointed his long sword at Lee Shaoyu. His followers all used their divine abilities to chase after Lee Shaoyu. However, Lee Shaoyu had extreme speed. If he wanted to escape from someone of the same cultivation realm, very few people would be able to catch up to him. In an instant, the distance between him and the pursuers was widened.
"You guys kill him. I will chase after him!" Seeing his followers being thrown far away, Jian Wuji had no choice but to give up on fighting with Lee Muzhe. He chased after them personally. The pressure on Lee Muzhe was greatly reduced. Although he was considered a top Air-breaking Stage warrior, he was still under a lot of pressure when facing an opponent like Jian Wuji. At this moment, Jian Wuji had left, leaving only four followers behind. They were able to deal with him easily while flying towards Liuyun Stage.
A layer of sword-shaped Hologram appeared beside Jian Wuji. It cut through the surrounding air and greatly increased his speed. At the same time, it seemed like divine flames were shooting out from his back. The void was exploding, increasing his speed by another level. It was as fast as a flowing light, and it was actually slowly closing the distance between him and Lee Shaoyu.
They never thought that the group of people from Sword Immortal Hall would be so shameless. The allied army of the continent had only sent a Jian Chen. They did not send a single soldier, and did not want to put in any effort at all. It was fine if you did not do anything. It's time to kill someone who's still fighting at such a critical moment!
"Jian Wuji, don't you know that I have a very important mission on this trip? "It concerns the safety of the entire continent. How dare you stop me? Aren't you afraid that the entire continent will be plunged into misery and suffering?" Lee Shaoyu transmitted his voice to Jian Wuji using a secret technique. It was impossible for them to communicate with each other at such a speed, so they could only communicate with each other.
"What is the meaning of suffering and suffering? What is the meaning of blood flowing in rivers? What does this have to do with us? This is just a game between true rulers. What do you think you can change? In this world, only by obtaining great strength can one truly protect oneself. " There are no outsiders to rely on. Therefore, Sword Immortal Hall only pursues endless strength. Our goal is to survive the arrival of such a chaotic world. In the eyes of those people, we are nothing but ants. What does it matter no matter how many people die? Master Ancestor has ordered that as long as you are willing to cooperate, "We can guarantee that you won't die in this chaos!" Jian Wuji transmitted his voice to Lee Shaoyu, revealing some secrets. The Sword Immortal Hall had existed for a long time, and its creator was the True Immortal that had experienced the ancient war of destruction. As such, he knew a lot of secrets. The disciples of the Sword Immortal Hall had a deeper understanding of history than the other powers on the continent.
"What do you mean by this?" Lee Shaoyu couldn't help but think of Ye Linlang's words. He was moved by Jian Wuji's words. Could it be that there were other secrets hidden behind the chaos?
"Some things are the secrets of heaven. Even the ancestor didn't dare to say it openly. If you want to live in the chaos, you can only cooperate with Sword Immortal Hall. Otherwise, you will have to follow those people on the continent and cause trouble. In the end, you will be destroyed. The strength of Divine Clan is beyond your imagination." Jian Wuji said in a deep voice.
