Chapter 805: Sudden Change
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Half an hour later, countless experts from the Kunlun Mountains and the sect masters of the various sects gathered at the place where the huge ice sword had landed.
No one had expected that an expert of this level would descend upon the Kunlun Mountains and speak such threatening words.
She even called out the Dao Sect!
They also had not expected that Ye Shitian had been accepted as a disciple by such a mighty expert. With such a powerful expert behind him, who would dare to touch Ye Shitian?
Most of the people present knew very well that Dao Sect was probably doomed, and that the sect would likely become a pariah in the Kunlun Mountains.
A single sentence from that ancient mighty expert would be enough to change the status of the Dao Sect in the Kunlun Mountains forever.
Soon, the True Path Sect would not have any allies, and would likely be constantly monitored by countless experts.
After all, if Dao Sect attacked Ye Shitian in secret, the entire Kunlun Mountains would have to pay the price!
A few minutes later, Ji Siqing and Ji Lin also rushed over.
The two of them had watched as the io,ooo-meter-long ice sword descended from the sky, and the shock in their hearts could not be any greater.
More importantly, there was a name engraved on the sword…
Ye Shitian!
This was a protective sword that the mighty expert had left for Ye Shitian in the Kunlun Mountains.
At least as long as the ice sword was in the Kunlun Mountains, no one would dare to attack Ye Shitian.
“Ye Shitian…”
Ji Siqing clenched her slender fingers, and the cracking of her joints could be heard.
She realized that the distance between her and Ye Shitian was getting further and further.
She originally wanted to make this person her cultivation target, but now it seemed that the gap between them was like a chasm.
However, this did not make her discouraged. Instead, it ignited her fighting spirit!
“Sister, since Ye Shitian has such a powerful expert behind him, why is he still concealing himself?”
“In fact, it seems like he was even forced into a sorry state by Dao Sect. This shouldn’t be the case.”
Ji Siqing shook her head.
“The entire Kunlun Mountains are trying to figure out Ye Shitian’s identity, but since he just won’t show up, we can’t do anything about it.”
“We can only wait now. This guy has a unique pattern though. He will appear once every half a month.”
Ji Lin’s mind spun as she muttered, “Then… Won’t he appear at the genius competition next?”
Ji Siqing’s expression froze, but she did not say anything else.
She did hope so, but why would Ye Shitian care about this competition?
His stage should be a larger place.
“Right, sister, if Ye Shitian becomes a member of the Ji family, will the Ji family never have to worry about their safety? Why don’t you sacrifice yourself, sister? Ye Shitian is the perfect candidate, much better than Ye Chen. If you’re not willing, we’ll have to wait until I’m eighteen. It’ll be many years. What if someone else gets to him first?”
Ji Siqing was left speechless by this.
At this moment, in the Dao Sect’s main hall, hundreds of disciples were standing outside the door, looking nervous.
They had joined the True Path Sect because of its powerful status in the Kunlun Mountains. Even among their friends and family, they were extremely honored. However, the Dao Sect had now been shut down by a single sentence from that mighty expert!
Everyone was considering leaving the sect. Even some of the elders who had been in Dao Sect for decades were hesitating.
Creak!
The door suddenly opened.
It was complete chaos outside.
“Sect Master, Ye Shitian, he…”
As soon as a disciple started speaking, his body turned into a bloody mist. The sect master’s actions were ruthless and decisive.
The crowd became completely silent.
Then, the sect master arrived in front of the crowd.
At this moment, he seemed to have aged decades, and he was physically and mentally exhausted.
He raised his head, and a trace of coldness flashed across his turbid eyes.
“Don’t ever mention Ye Shitian in front of me again! I know that you are afraid of the threat of that powerful expert!”
“However, that powerful expert made it very clear that as long as we don’t attack secretly, it’s fine!”
“Can’t we just kill Ye Shitian openly?”
“In a few days, the genius competition will be held. This is a grand occasion for the Kunlun Mountains, although it’s unlikely that Ye Shitian will participate.
However, the Dao Sect’s reputation has taken a blow. We have to take back what we lost!”
“I only have one request. In this golden age, the Dao Sect must become the ruler! Remember, if you can’t get first place, you’ll die!”
“Finally, let me tell everyone here. We don’t have to be afraid of this mysterious mighty expert. Today, although our Dao Sect is no match for her, once our plan succeeds, we will have the qualifications to fight her!”
Qingxuan Peak.
The lightning tribulation dissipated. Ye Chen opened his eyes and exhaled slowly. This time, he had broken through to the third level of the saint realm.
He was quite satisfied. At the very least, he could fight against some saint king realm experts without using any trump cards.
Of course, with the help of some trump cards and other techniques, he might be able to handle some origin realm, or even some early-stage origin king realm experts.
He stood up and saw Mo Ning beside him. Although he was breaking through just now, he still knew some of the things that she had done.
He knew very well that doing that had cost Mo Ning a great deal. No matter what, he would remember this favor.
“Thanks,” Ye Chen said calmly.
Mo Ning’s lips curled into a smile. “Tomb Master, I am repaying you for my previous offense today.”
Ye Chen thought of something and asked, “Right, since the problem at hand has been solved, what is the condition you want me to agree to?”
Mo Ning bit her red lips and hesitated for a few seconds before saying, “Tomb Master, when I left the Mo Family, I severed all ties of love and pursued the Great Dao wholeheartedly.”
“Because of the Thousand Extreme Cold Body, I was born cold and did not do much for the Mo family. After that ancient war, my greatest obsession and regret was the Mo family.”
“I hope that you can visit the Mo family one day and take care of them.”
Ye Chen nodded. He had never heard of the Mo family in the Kunlun Mountains, and the surname Mo was extremely rare.
However, since Mo Ning had requested it, he would naturally agree.
“Thank you, Tomb Master. I’ll enter the Samsara Graveyard for now. After all, I’m only a divine soul now and can’t stay in the outside world for too long.”
Mo Ning’s figure bowed slightly before completely dissipating.
Ye Chen did not want to stay here for too long either, and he made his way to Qjngxuan Peak’s formation.
He had only taken a few steps when he suddenly felt something. There was a strange movement coming from the Samsara Graveyard!
This abnormality did not come from Mo Ning, but from Duan Leiren’s tombstone!
Duan Leiren had consumed the Archaic Illusory Reality Pill and said that he wanted to investigate something related to that ancient war and the Samsara Graveyard.
However, after so long, there was still no news!
Despite this, Ye Chen was not worried. After all, Duan Leiren was an ancient mighty expert, and was thus strong enough to deal with everything in the Kunlun Mountains.
However, at this moment, he realized that things were far from being that simple. Cracks appeared on Duan Leiren’s tombstone, seemingly indicating that he had been severely injured.
Ye Chen quickly entered the Samsara Graveyard, and found that Mo Ning and Lin Qingxuan were both already waiting for him there.
The two of them frowned, and had ugly expressions on their faces.
“Master, what happened?”
When Lin Qingxuan saw Ye Chen enter, he sighed and said, “The tombstone shattered. Duan Leiren probably went too deep into the matter and met with an accident.”
“If that force discovers his existence, they might even investigate this place.”
“Disciple, this matter is far more troublesome than you can imagine!”
