Chapter 1090: Thousand Great and Merciful Dried Leaves

Evil King fled because he was heavily injured.

Shi Feixuan left.

Young Yu Yan became famous after the battle. She and Happy thanked the members who rushed over, and under multiple people’s gazes, they left.

Without any problems whatsoever, Happy easily understood the ultimate technique known as Full Winds in Long Skies.

Young Yu Yan’s situation was slightly more complicated. She spent some time before she could enter a completely calm state, but the power of the ultimate technique she understood was still not to be underestimated. It was known as Thousand Great and Merciful Dried Leaves.

The phrase “great and merciful” carried the meaning of helping someone change, and Dried Leaves was a powerful ultimate technique the ancient divine monk understood. The user must have the thought of dying for the sake of a cause to help the world change, and with one palm strike, the air would move, and all leaves would dry up. In an instant, it could turn the enemy’s attack into fuel for Dried Leaves, and while the user attacked, all the qi and hidden force that was aimed at the user would be sucked out to fill up the palm-generated wind to turn into the fiercest attack.

When Young Yu Yan understood the amazing aspect of the attack, she became incredibly excited. “It’s amazing! With this attack, I’ll be stronger the stronger my enemies are. Even if I run into Evil King, I’m confident that I can fight against him now.”

“Dream on. The cooldown time for Thousand Great and Merciful Dried Leaves is the same as Full Winds in Long Skies. You need half a minute before you can use it again, and you will also be drawing out two hundred qi points each time you use it. With your current condition, at most, you can only exchange one to two moves with Evil King, and you won’t be able to do anything against him anymore.” Happy decided to be a wet blanket after he was rendered completely speechless by her words.

“You’ll be in a better situation if you use Heaven Crystal Sword against him. You should more or less be able to break Evil King’s defense and create certain damage on him. If your timing is right, perhaps you can have the chance to execute the second Thousand Great and Merciful Dried Leaves.”

“It’s already pretty good. Right now, aside from you, who else in the world can fight alone against a martial artist at the peak of Myth Realm and injure them badly?” Young Yu Yan giggled. Then, her eyes lit up, and she suddenly suggested. “Why don’t we spar a little?”

“For what?” Happy was stunned.

Young Yu Yan cunningly waved her fair hands. “I won’t use any weapons, and we’ll just exchange one blow. You can use Full Winds in Long Skies.”

After she finished speaking, Happy instantly felt himself rendered completely speechless.

Full Winds in Long Skies might be as profound, but it placed an emphasis on instant, explosive damage.

Thousand Great and Merciful Dried Leaves was a completely different story. It was a slow, substantial, and profound ultimate technique. If Young Yu Yan delivered her palm strike, aside from hidden weapons being able to pose as a certain threat to her, the other attacks would all be transformed to her own attack, and it could be considered a stronger version of Shifting Stars.

If he truly used Full Winds in Long Skies to fight against her, when he delivered the attack at her while it was at the first realm, once she returned the attack to him, it would be the same as her delivering a second realm Full Winds in Long Skies at him. Even though it was not enough to severely wound him or instantly kill him, he would inevitably be reduced to a very pathetic state.

‘This girl…’

When she saw Happy’s resentful look, Young Yu Yan giggled in a satisfied manner. “See? My Thousand Great and Merciful Dried Leaves is better.”

Happy said, “That’s not necessarily true. If I attack first, your Thousand Great and Merciful Dried Leaves might be useful against me, but if you attack first, that move is not threatening to me at all.”

Young Yu Yan was rendered speechless. She stopped giggling, and she thought about this in silence. “Yeah, I can’t use this beforehand, and I can’t use it against you either. You know the characteristics and cooldown time for Thousand Great and Merciful Dried Leaves. If I use the attack, you can dodge or just use Shifting Stars, and I can’t do anything to you.”

Once she finished speaking, most of the smugness on her face vanished.

When he saw this, Happy finally smiled. “You understand now, right? When elites fight, they don’t compete using the levels of their martial arts, but they also have to be patient and have good judgment toward timing. Also, don’t use your trump card so readily. If you exposed it too many times, your trump card can also be fully countered.”

“I understand.” Young Yu Yan nodded to show that she accepted what he said with a humble heart. “It’s a pity that we didn’t manage to get Evil King’s two stone plates. If we can learn the other two ultimate techniques as well, we can become even stronger.”

“Stop daydreaming.” When Happy heard this, he just shook his head and laughed wanly. “Did you actually think that a martial artist at the peak of Myth Realm is so easy to deal with. If we truly fight against him, both of us might actually not be able to kill him! Besides, no one ever knows where Empress Yin currently is. If she appears, we may not come out of the fight alive.”

But even though he said that, Happy knew that with Evil King’s injuries at that time, he actually had a certain degree of chance in winning.

However, at that time, he was worried about Young Yu Yan, and he thought of something amazing when Shi Feixuan handed over the stone plate. Since the stone plate in Shi Feixuan’s hands could be handed over as a quest reward to the players, there was also a possibility that Evil King will also hand over his stone plate. At the very least, he will hand over one of them to a player.

Once he thought of this, Happy could not help but have his thoughts wander. He remembered the world three years later. Perhaps someone had already activated Evil King’s quest, or it was currently in a state where it was ready to be activated.

When his thoughts arrived at this point, Happy told Young Yu Yan of his idea.

Her eyes lit up. “That’s right! We can have Wandering Know-it-all help us determine Evil King’s specific location. Then, we’ll search for some evil cult disciples from the University of South China or from among the higher ups in Mu Clan to figure out Evil King’s quest. Then, based on the quests over here, we can help you get your second stone plate from the world three years later.”

“That’s what I’ve been meaning to do.” He stopped talking for a while before Happy added. “But the quests for the two worlds are definitely not the same. I’ll let you handle the quest over here. I just need to know where Evil King went. Then, once I find Evil King, I’ll see whether I can defeat and get his stone plate.”

If anyone else heard this, they will definitely roll their eyes.

But before the Happy three years later had his Marrow Cleansing Classic enter the first realm, he could already fight to a standstill with Evil King. At that time, he did not have Full Winds in Long Skies. Now, his strength had grown by leaps and bounds, and his qi points had also reached Inaction Realm. He actually had quite the high possibility of winning against him.

As he moved between the two worlds, Happy noticed that not only could Young Yu Yan help him by a large degree, as he explored both worlds, many of the things in the one world could actually be used to increase his strength in the other world.

Right now, he had used the world three years later to help him get Tendon Changing Classic and Full Winds in Long Skies. Then, he used the information over here to help him discover how he should clear the challenge surrounding Ten True Dragon Styles, and he also gained the clues to the second white stone plate.

His strength was also continuously growing because of the two worlds, and he was growing at an unbelievable speed.

Happy believed that if no accidents occurred, he could already fight to a tie with Evil Emperor, although he would only barely be able to match up to Evil Emperor’s strength. However, once he reached Inaction Realm, if he had the strength to get the ultimate technique from a second stone plate, even if Evil Emperor’s Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art increased in realm, he would no longer be difficult to deal with.

*****

While Happy and Young Yu Yan were understanding their ultimate techniques, the shock they caused outside Dafo Temple had swiftly spread through the entire internet, and the entire game burst into an uproar because of it.

The war hundreds of miles away had also broken out.

Silver Wolf, Phantasmal Shadow, Lin Xiao, Night Rain Follows Wind, and the others served as garrisons in West Region, and they personally commanded their troops to fight and defend in the war.

In just one day, they continuously took down more than twenty Class One Hall branches.

When they received the shocking news from the center of the Chinese server, the group was first stunned before they read the contents in the letter several times. Once they verified the truth in the information, they sighed in a thought provoking manner.

“It’s no wonder why Happy never personally took any action in this operation against Class One Hall.”

“I didn’t expect that Happy and his wife would have already grown so strong. By the looks of it now, Mu Clan’s strength has completely surpassed Class One Hall even when it was at its strongest. It has four supreme-class elites in the sect, and hundreds of top-class elites. The Chinese server is not in chaos, and even if we aren’t here to monitor West Region, it can’t cause even a single splash. Dream Clouds has completely lost, and Class One Hall can do nothing to turn the tides.”

Phantasmal Shadow was originally worried that Happy might have ended up underestimating Class One Hall’s foundation of strength and Dream Clouds’ schemes because he had not appeared in a few months, but once she was certain that Young Yu Yan had severely wounded Evil King with just one slash and forced him away, she instantly knew that she had been worried too much.

While Class One Hall had been resting and accumulating their strength, Happy had also become even more unfathomable. In fact, Mu Clan’s strength had increased by leaps and bounds once more.

When the people from the four sects received the news, they had been very relaxed but shocked.

Compared to them, when Dream Clouds, Blood Robes, Barren Murderer and the rest received this news, multiple people were dumbfounded in the grave war room.

The grave atmosphere instantly disappeared.

The four sects had not even brought out all their elites and their full strength, and they had already easily torn apart their defense line!

Now, even more nightmares came from the Chinese plains.

Their subordinates began talking about how another world-class elite had appeared in Mu Clan.

There were even people who said that if Happy or Young Yu Yan came over, they could easily slaughter them, and if they worked together with One Emperor to attack in three directions, Class One Hall would not even have the strength to fight back.

“Why are we still fighting?”

“Damn it! The people Blood Robes and Barren Murderer brought to Mantuo Villa are complete idiots!”

“Mu Clan’s strength has already grown to unimaginable heights, and they actually dared to provoke them during their wedding and use those shameless, petty tricks?! They completely humiliated us.”

“Look at now! They’ve provoked Mu Clan, and Mu Clan didn’t even bother looking at us in the eye. They just sent their forces over, and with one swing of their hand, they sent eight hundred thousand people to West Region!”

“How can we even fight back?”

In just one day, nearly one hundred thousand Class One Hall members in West Region died in battle, and on the same day, more than fifty thousand Class One Hall members left Class One Hall.

On the first day the four great sects launched their full offense in West Region, the flames of war burned everywhere, and the soldiers from Class One Hall were so incredibly frightened that they were in a constant state of alarm, and Class One Hall entered its twilight.

*****

“Where are those Wild Wolves?”

When their defense line at West Region completely collapsed, Blood Robes and Barren Murderer were in full-blown panic.

“Hall master, Evil Emperor mentioned that he will work with us to fight against the four great sects’ offense.”

“Don’t even mention those bastards.” Dream Clouds had intense disgust and disappointment flash in her eyes. “Ever since the people from the four sects set up their defense line, Wild Wolves never sent anyone to contact me. So much for them suggesting that they’d help us lure Mu Clan’s attention away from us. Look at things now, the attention from the four sects is entirely on Class One Hall!”

“Those bastards!”

Blood Robes, Barren Murderer, and the others gnashed their teeth and cursed up a storm.

But the group in the room knew that with One Emperor serving as the garrison at the frontlines of the four sects along with Silver Wolf, Phantasmal Shadow, Night Rain Follows Wind, Lin Xiao, and nearly one thousand top-class elites, even if Wild Wolves came over, they would not be able to turn the tides.
