Chapter 285 Drink Before You Fight

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Wei Xu didn’t feel any bit of awkwardness at all as he looked carefully at Zong Shou, his eyes shining bright.

He had actually succeeded in borrowing the intent!

Only 20 breaths had passed.

In these 20 breaths, Zong Shou had gone from totally no basis at all to the sense level!

…he didn’t even manage to cross half of the hundred miles!

Such a speed was pretty much terrifying! His sword path was one with the spirit. It was definitely true!

Not, not only that. It wasn’t a simple borrowing and copying, he had merged his great sun knife intent into his own martial path!

What kind of monstrous talent had he gotten for his Sect? Although it wasn’t as good as spirit and martial merging into one, in the future he might be able to reach the peak of both paths.

The path of cultivation was like a Long distance race. No matter how fast one ran, if one fell off in the middle or if one lacked energy in the end, one would still lose.

Zong Shou scoffed coldly. After a long while, the violent intent in his eyes dissipated.

“Senior Brother don’t you think you need to explain to me?”

Actually, he guessed that this was a test from Wei Xu to him, an examination or more accurately a test of the product.

However, since he felt unhappy in his heart Then he shall say it outright such that Wei Xu knows. If not, the fellow might take it even further next time.

“Explain what? To personally kill an enemy, isn’t that a better way to vent your frustration?”

Wei Xu wasn’t annoyed, instead of looking over in praise. Smiling as he walked closer towards the corpse that was falling towards the ground. He took a look at the blood and meat that scattered around before they even touched the ground had burnt up. The surprise in his eyes got even thicker.

“I just wanted to tell junior Brother how our common people path did things. What we focus on most is the word “self” and “will fullness”. Going alone to places by ourselves to make a name for ourselves. Willful, being free and doing what our hearts want. If you want to rely on the strength of the sect in the future, the power of junior Brothers and senior brothers I think you will be disappointed. At most, after you die, our common people path will help you kill you, enemy, such that you die with no regrets.”

Zong Shou was startled, thinking back to Seven Spirit Sect And Qingyin school. Their disciples weren’t similar to what Wei Xu said. When they faced matters didn’t they ask for help and gang up to get an advantage?

He just knew that the Sword Sect was much stronger than this common people path.

“It is only us! It has nothing to do with the other 6 schools and 3 sects.”

Seemingly like he saw through Zong Shou’s thoughts, shaking his head and explaining, “Including you, there is just 7 of us. Actually, my helping this time is making an exception. Junior Brother you do have to owe me a favor for this…”

Zong Shou first heavily jolted. Then, he understood, raging, “I owe you a favor? Isn’t this thing your fault? If it wasn’t for your common people path blocking me, I would have joined that Tailing Sect, even that Wujue Villa. What could that Demon Mountain Sect do to me?”

Wei Xu took in a deep breath and knew that he couldn’t outwit him, turning into a straightforward laugh,” then no one owes anyone nothing. However, today if it wasn’t for this Kui Qi, I really didn’t know that junior Brother has such ambition to merge hundred sword paths into your own.”

Zong Shou’s eyes constricted, however, he wasn’t surprised. His sword path used the one energy sword to search for the roots of the martial path. The Styx river death sword, mountain and river sword intent, great sun knife intent and even cloud shocking god destroying sword intent were all just on the surface. The true source was still the one energy sword.

The journey of the sword path had many changes but it won’t deviate from the root. As long as one grasped the root, one could turn it into thousands of different thing.

One could use one sword to display the sword path of a hundred schools. One could also use the sword paths of the hundred schools to train and improve the root, to strengthen the foundation.

In the last life, he improved his martial path in such a way. Today, he self-created the world shocking spiritual technique with such a thought as a basis.

Wei Xu was a Saint realm expert and it wasn’t surprising that he could see the foundations of his sword path. But what this senior Brother saw was just what he wanted others to see.

The rage in his heart still not dissipating, just as he wanted to speak, he heard Wei Xu’s tone change, “Hearing his words, things don’t seem to be right at Xuan Mountain City. Junior Brother do you want to head over? Do you want to walk all the way east or should I blink you over?”

Zong Shou blinked his eyes and instantly all the fury dissipated. With such a weakness still in his hands, he really couldn’t blow up.

Gantian Mountain was 2 thousand over miles away from Xuan Mountain City. Apart from his blink technique, he would take many days to get across.

“Junior Brother isn’t angry anymore? What a well behaved child. I shall be kind and bring you over.”

Wei Xu smiles, suddenly reaching out with his hand and a talisman hung in front of him.

Balls of spiritual light seeped out from the talisman paper. The space they were in instantly twisted.

With just an eye Zong Shou knee that this Wei Xu wasn’t using the talisman to let them teleport through space, instead of controlling the tremors caused by this change.

With his realm, covering his aura in this world was many times more consuming than the amount of strength needed to break through spacetime and many times more difficult.

Suddenly remembering something, Zong Shou asked curiously, “Senior Brother, our common people path really cares about honor and integrity so much? Never going back on our words?”

Thinking that if that was really the case then the common people path in the future really went wrong. Not mentioning the other 3 sect and 6 schools, just the common people path main sect which was about to face ruin was basically notorious.

In the future, he would definitely be one of the reasons why their reputation is spoiled.

“Of course, it’s our golden signboard!”

Wei Xu was delighted when he heard that, revealing a gleeful expression, “The people who have seen us go against our word are mostly dead. Our common people path naturally don’t bully people. For example that Kui Qi I said I wouldn’t lay a finger on him. But Seven Spirit Sect has so many disciples who are all under me. Letting them Attack isn’t wrong!”

Zong Shou exclaimed, instantly understanding what he meant. In just that short moment, a wind blew up around him and the scenery around changed once more.

…

The place he appeared at should be near Xuan Mountain City. However, he was still 30 miles away.

Zong Shou was astonished at this celestial realm experts’ control of space-time whilst he frowned and looked at the outline of the city.

This large city was unusually silent and tense. Similar to Gantian Mountain City a few days back, like swords and bows were pulled open.

“A fight seemed to have begun on the peak of the mountain!”

When Zong Shou heard that, he immediately looked into the distance. As expected on that mountain peak, spiritual energy fluctuations and astral energy were spreading about in all directions.

Before he could take a close look, Wei Xu grabbed his shoulder, “With your cultivation, he probably can’t use your soul to look a thousand miles away. Let’s go, I’ll bring you to take a look.”

With actually just one step, he reached the peak of Xuan Mountain. Only to see that the mountain peak was a total mess. Those giant crossbows were all destroyed.

However, there weren’t any soldiers here so naturally there weren’t any injured or dead. Only tens of people stood beside the Tiegang Hall, their cultivations were all not weak.

Xuanyuan Tong was like a mountain, standing in the center of the drill field, his face grey and defeated. In front of him, a black robbed old man was floating in the air. He was around 60-70 filled with confidence, his eyes had a teasing expression but with a little bit of care.

When the 2 of them arrived, that Xuanyuan Tong struck out with a mace. The peak was instantly swept with strong energy, like thunder rumbling, causing the entire Xuan Mountain to shake.

However, there was only a soft clash as the mace struck a black colored sword, forcing it away with huge strength. However, it only flew 30 feet before stopping and suspending in mid-air.

Like that strike that could smash tens of Xuanwu ancestors was totally useless.

That old man said calmly and casually, “This is your Xuanyuan family’s Xuan Mountain 18 technique? It is truly similar to our Demon Mountain Sect. However, it is just so so, not worth a mention.”

“In your eyes, it might truly be the case.”

Xuanyuan Tong’s eyes were half-opened and half-closed. At this moment he didn’t waver, “But at least on this Xuan Mountain peak, within this city, you can’t do anything to me! You evil demons and monster spirits actually dare to come out to the world and cause chaos. I think you all are not far away from death!”

“Evil demons and Monster spirits? That what should we call your Wife? In terms of evil, I’m far from that.”

The black robbed broke out into a smile, the sharpness in his eyes didn’t decrease, “Today I have indeed underestimated you. However although I can’t do anything to you, I can do something for your city. If you force my hand I can do anything. City lord, you should just give up and hand over your Daughter. I won’t harm her life, I just need to go to Gantian Mountain to do some matters…”

That Xuanyuan Tony’s eyes stared wide and he scoffed coldly. Just as he was about to speak, Xuanyuan Yiren who was in front of the Tiegang Hall exclaimed, “Zong Shou?”

The two people in the standstill were slightly shocked, turning around to look. Only to see that besides the cliff stood one tall and one short, both similarly thin people. They were astonished, totally not knowing when the 2 of them had arrived.

Zong Shou looked towards Wei Xu. Seeing that he had no intention of helping, he sighed slightly, “So it seems like I still have to rely on myself?”

Wei Xu didn’t reply, but he gave him a praising gaze which one could read that he was saying, “Junior Brother you really are smart, you can be taught!”.

Zong Shou really wanted to slap him right away. Ascended ancestors were still okay, but this was a grandmaster level expert, even if he borrows the saint realm expert strength there was no way he could win.

However, he didn’t hesitate, pulling his sword and walking forwards. “Father in law how about hand this battle to me? This is a calamity I have attracted, I should deal with it myself.”

Xuanyuan Tong originally wanted to reject it, but a moment later he realized that Zong Shou’s aura suddenly became scorching hot, less strong than him but more pure and concentrated. His gaze was also really certain and confident.

He was first shocked before he looked at Wei Xu whose cultivation he was uncertain about, deep in thought. After thinking for a moment he nodded his head, “Okay, but you need to drink wine first!”
