Chapter 707 - That Is A Misunderstanding

Chapter 707: That Is A Misunderstanding

In the Central Cloud Continent, at the mid-waist of the Guansheng Mountain stood a giant mountain gate.

At 2,000 feet, around the same level as the peak, the words ‘Guanling Sect’ were written on a stone plaque!

“It is only the end of October and the mountain has already froze. These two years have been weird, each year colder than the last.”

“Master said that it is because the Spiritual Wave is about to rise and Spiritual Energy is surging which caused the north cold current to increase. In these few years, the Cloud World weather will be really uncertain and there will be disasters all over?”

“There is such a thing?”

The one who spoke was a young Taoist wearing a green robe. They all held long swords as they looked at the steps below the mountain.

“Speaking of Master, he was sent by the Daoling Vast Habitat head over to Donglin. Who knows what happened? I heard that many people have died there, could it be….”

“What are you saying? Master is so strong and the top of our Sect, nothing would happen to him! I heard that we sent 140 Spirit Realm Cultivators and hundreds of Grade-9 Cultivators too. Not to mention Gantian Mountain, we can even crush the whole Donglin.”

“That’s true! To think that the Gantian Mountain Monster King actually said he wanted to wipe us out. He is so arrogant and asking to die! He really thought that as a Ruler he could go up against our Daoling Vast Habitat? He doesn’t know that we can crush his small mountain with a flip of our hand. Actually, Palace Head Wu Xu has been too soft these few years. In my eyes, we should slay Gantian Mountain and turn it into a bloody river, not leaving any living being at all.”

“Naturally, we need to wipe out his race!”

“However, I heard that he is extremely skilled in the Sword Path…”

“So why could he compare to Senior Master who entered Spirit Realm a few hundred years ago?”

The boy to the right also didn’t understand. Then, his brow rose, “Who is that person?”

Their eyes fixed on the clouds afar only to see a person stepping on the air. He was around sixteen, wearing a gold shirt, his face like jade, so handsome that it could charm all girls.

However, all this was not as eye-catching as the sword which he held in his hand.

Hundreds of thousands of feet away the Sword Intent had already descended down on this place.

“Pu!”

There was a light swish on his cheeks and first he felt cold and then hot.

The cold and dazed teen to the side touched his hand and then found that it was covered in blood. Only then did he realize that for no reason there was a wound.

Then, those sounds continued. The trees and plants around were cut into pieces by extremely sharp invisible power.

The stone plaque and gate behind was also cut into pieces and in the end it totally collapsed.

Numerous wounds appeared on their bodies.

The boy couldn’t help but feel shocked. Who was this person? Why was his sword intent so strong?

In the next moment, he realized that an enemy had arrived.

Right as he was about to cast a spell to warn the mountain peak, there was already movement there.

An old voice sounded throughout the sky.

“Who are you mister? Why did you attack us for no reason?”

When these words were spoken, a giant Spiritual Light veil appeared.

It covered 300,000 feet, covering the entire Guansheng Mountain body.

That person still walked over casually, that Sword Intent charged over. Even the mountain protecting Spiritual Formation couldn’t stop him.

He continued to strike, giving rise to rippling sounds as the Sword Energy and the formation clashed. The restrictions around were continuously falling apart.

“Is this Guanling Sect?”

For some reason, the sky above was covered in dark clouds.

Millions of lightning shot down from above. Lightning snakes danced and green light flashed incessantly, causing this region to be as bright as day.

There were numerous black blades that ripped open the sky and flew over.

There were flames burning around the teen. There was also ice blue, green, numerous lights flashing out and extinguishing.

He stood within, unharmed at all. He looked impassively at the fallen gate and plaque.

There was no doubt…

In his last life, it was said that when Daoling Sect was at its strongest it had 3,000 sects. This Guanling Sect was one of them…

There was no need for anymore to be said!

The green-white Sword Light shot out from his sleeves. It instantly climbed 100,000 feet, turning into a million Sword Shadows and sweeping down.

The two boys holding swords were at the forefront.

They could only look at the Sword Light shoot down in a dazed manner. All the restrictions and formations were broken one by one, everything in front of them was smashed into dust.

The stone stairs were being crushed, the light veil was also collapsing!

Endless and unlimited sword wave! The sword was like a flood!

“How bold you are! Don’t you know that my Guanling Sect is the top of the 3,000 Taoist Sects?”

The old man on the peak was both shocked and furious. The entire mountain protecting Spiritual Formation was spinning like a wheel.

More blade shadows landed down along with a sky full of energy.

There were hundreds of strong cultivators who flew down to block the unceasing sword waves.

However, those million Sword Shadows didn’t stop at all. Anyway, the formation was still collapsing!

Among 100 Cultivators there was one Grade-9, but he too was unable to block for even a moment. The sky full of blood rained down as flesh scattered.

Just a slight touch and one was ripped into pieces by the Sword Light.

It was just so domineering!

It entered from all holes and gaps. Even the smallest crack would instantly collapse. It was the same for Spiritual Formations and for people.

One could see many Dragon Shadows behind the back of the teen.

The two boys were ashen white. They wanted to retreat, but how could one even move aside in front of this flood-like sword suppression?

The old man’s voice stopped, finally thinking about something. When he spoke once more, his voice trembled a little.

“You are Zong Shou? Gantian Mountain Monster King Zong Shou?”

The teen didn’t speak, the 30,000-foot black wings spread out. Then, the Purple Lightning mixed with the Lu Family Sky Burning Flame and spread about.

The Spiritual Flames caused those broken barriers to remain unfixed.

The pupils of the two boys constricted.

The person in front of them was Zong Shou? The Monster King?

Why wasn’t he at Gantian Mountain, but here instead?

What a strong sword! That’s right, he used his strength to block six of the talents in the Cloud World. It was said he was unrivaled…

The voice of the old man rose up once more, “What is the meaning of this? The war between Daoling Vast Habitat and Gantian Mountain has nothing to do with my Guansheng Sect. If there is any misunderstanding, I can explain!”

Hong!

There was a loud explosion as the entire formation collapsed. Millions of Sword Shadows swept down without obstruction.

The bodies of the two boys were crushed into dust right away.

The flood-like sword swept along the stone stairs all the way up toward the mountain peak. All the trees, stones, houses and buildings were all destroyed.

Blood rain was pouring down.

There were a few people who fortunately escaped from the peak. However, after 10,000 feet there was a Sword Light that destroyed their bodies as they dropped downward.

In just a dozen breaths, this mountain regained silence.

Only Zong Shou was left on the mountain peak.

He swept around impassively and also he reached out with his Spiritual Sense.

After confirming that everyone was dead, a total of 2,234 people, he retracted his gaze.

Then he slashed down and carved the word ‘two’ below.

This was the second sect he massacred, but this was only the start.

Paying tooth for tooth, blood for blood!

He wanted the Taoist Sect to pay with an equal price for those million civilians! He was never someone who would defend the city and let others bully him.

A Sword Light flashed over, it was the One Origin Sword.

He felt that the aura of the person who tore open space and fled out of the Cloud World had disappeared. Zong Shou scoffed coldly, not worrying about it and stepping out 1,000 feet away.

Next was Wenyi Mountain, 1,700 miles away.

Moments later, a few flying boats flew over. Above, there were two green-robed Taoists and a bunch of kids.

When they landed, the few Taoists felt that something wasn’t right.

They flew up into the air only to see that the celestial like mountain peak was empty.

It seemed like it was ravaged by numerous storms and was in a total mess. A blood river formed into fountains and flowed down the mountain.

They exchanged glances with one another. Their faces were ashen white and their eyes were filled with fear and doubt.

Who was it? Who wiped out the entire Guanling Sect?

Those boys who followed along were in panic.

In the next instant, a scream sounded out from the mountains.

※※※※

1,700 miles away, Wenyi Mountain.

This mountain was only 10,000 feet high. It got its name because the land around was like a chessboard. The mountain rocks around were really orderly, black and white, like chess pieces.

This was why many people came over, scholars and tourists frequented this area. However, apart from the 15th of each month when the gates were opened for prayer, they were mostly closed the rest of the time.

Although Wenyi Temple wasn’t as huge as Shrines and Spiritual Houses, it was one of the strongest few sects in 1,000 miles. It had close to 1,000 Martial Cultivators and 100 Spirit Masters.

In an elegant hall within the temple, there were two Taoists seated opposite one another. One was smiling while the other was frowning as he looked at the chessboard in front of him.
