Wolong Ridge.
Cultivators from various factions sat cross-legged. In this place, no one dared to easily erupt into battle.
After all, this was a mystic realm set up by Immortals to nurture powerful cultivators.
It could be said that Wolong Ridge could be considered an extremely safe place in the world today.
The overlord sat cross-legged outside Wolong Ridge. For a day and a night, many cultivators looked sideways.
The news of the Overlord killing Zhou Liu with a single punch had long spread.
The five Phoenix cultivators were secretly excited.
However, the cultivators of the Tian Yuan region did not have any good expressions towards the overlord.
The Overlord killing Zhou Liu was undoubtedly a slap to the face of the cultivators of the Tian Yuan region. Originally, the cultivators of the Tian Yuan region had an inexplicable sense of superiority in the five Phoenix continent.
But now, the Overlord’s battle results were like a ruthless stomp on their faces filled with a sense of superiority.
However, Zhong Nan, Xiao Yue’er and the other top-tier experts on the man roll did not make a move, and the others did not make a move either.
Those who could make it onto the man roll were not ordinary characters.
It was very obvious that they had already guessed what would happen next.
Compared to Zhou Liu’s ident.i.ty, they understood him better than the cultivators of the five Phoenix continent.
“Zhou Liu is dead. There is no successor for the Blue Sword sect. Sect Master Zhou Haisheng will definitely not let the Overlord off.”
“A life for a life, not to mention killing a genius of my Tian Yuan!”
“I heard that the sect master of the Blue Sword sect, Zhou Haisheng, is already on his way here. He wants to use the blood of the Overlord to pay tribute to the Dead Zhou Liu.”
The cultivation geniuses of the Tian Yuan sect were all whispering to each other.
The overlord ignored them.
He had waited for a day, and finally, Mo Tianyu came out from the prison gate to get some fresh air.
“Mr. MO, can we have a chat?”
The Overlord looked at the unruly Mo Tianyu and said.
Mo Tianyu understood what the Overlord wanted to do.
He smiled and turned his body sideways to make a welcoming gesture.
Zhong nan, Xiao Yue’er, and the others were puzzled. Why was the Overlord looking for Mo Tianyu.
Although… Mo Tianyu had comprehended the fourth-grade sequence dao intent, the dao intent of defying fate, Mo Tianyu’s strength was still too weak. He was only at the foundation establishment realm. How could he be qualified to be the Overlord’s helper?
From Zhong nan and Xiao Yue’er’s point of view, the Overlord was also looking for NIE changqing, Kong Nanfei, and the others to help him.
The wind from a nascent soul realm expert’s slap would probably be enough to kill a foundation establishment realm expert.
The Overlord brought Mo Tianyu out of the secret realm of the Wolong Ridge.
The two of them arrived at the top of a quiet mountain peak.
“Overlord, what business do you have with me?”
Mo Tianyu sat cross-legged with a turtle sh.e.l.l in one hand and three copper treasures in the other.
“I’d like to ask Mister to perform a divination.”
Overlord said.
This was the purpose of his search for Mo Tianyu.
Divination, fortune-telling… this matter was very ethereal. However, with the appearance of the cultivation world, this seemingly ethereal matter had become very real.
“Fortune-telling?”
Mo Tianyu actually smiled in surprise.
There was actually someone who dared to look for him to read his fortune? !
Did the sun rise from the West?
The Overlord told Mo Tian Yu about the incident that occurred after he killed Zhou Liu.
After Mo Tian Yu heard this, he laughed casually.
“The Overlord wants to calculate… the bad luck of the battle with a nascent soul stage cultivator?”
Mo Tian Yu said.
The overlord nodded.
Mo Tian Yu’s eyes couldn’t help but light up as he pulled his sleeve.
He sat cross-legged.
He stuffed the three copper treasures into the turtle sh.e.l.l and started to shake it continuously.
The copper treasures continued to collide with each other within the turtle sh.e.l.l, producing all kinds of clanging sounds..
Finally, they were sent flying.
Mo Tianyu flicked his fingers. Every time he flicked his fingers, wisps of spiritual energy would shoot out and hit the copper treasures.
After a long while, the copper treasures fell.
They were suddenly grabbed by Mo Tianyu and pressed into his hand.
The Overlord held his breath.
Mo Tianyu’s divination was extremely accurate… however, one had to look at it from the other side. Many people were very clear about this matter.
Overlord was naturally clear as well.
Therefore, overlord only hoped… to be extremely vicious this time!
Mo Tianyu opened his palm. On it, three copper treasures were slowly pushed aside by him.
Mo Tianyu pinched his fingers and his expression instantly became grim.
“How is it?”
Overlord asked.
Mo Tianyu shook his head..
“This battle… is hard to say.”
“The divination shows…”
“Great Fortune.”
Mo Tianyu said.
Great Fortune?
Overlord was delighted at first, but when he thought of Mo Tianyu’s divination, he felt as if he had eaten a fly..
Great Fortune was supposed to be a lucky divination, but in Mo Tianyu’s mouth, it was exactly the same as a near-death divination.
Although the sense of disharmony was very strong, Overlord’s heart was also much clearer.
“This battle… There really isn’t any chance?”
Overlord took a deep breath.
However, his eyes quickly sharpened.
Although he obtained an answer that he didn’t really want from Mo Tianyu.
But Overlord didn’t give up.
Even if this life… was really destined for him to lose, Overlord still wanted to fight with this life.
After overlord thanked Mo Tianyu, he turned around and left.
He disappeared into the thick fog on the mountain ridge.
Mo Tianyu watched the Overlord’s disappearing back and solemnly put away one copper treasure after another.
He… It was time for him to show his true skills.
..
The Overlord did not return to the Wolong Ridge. He walked along the official road and came to a small city not far away from the peak of the pavilion of heavenly secrets.
He stepped into the small city.
This small city was really very small. It was located in the middle of a mountain nest.
When the Overlord appeared, the aristocratic families in the city immediately received the news. All of them packed their bags and left in fear.
After all, the Overlord’s Xiang family army had ma.s.sacred too many aristocratic families.
They were afraid that the Overlord would come and cause trouble for their aristocratic families.
However, they were destined to think too much.
The overlord came to a simple blacksmith shop in the city.
The blacksmith shop was very quiet. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was empty. There were only two people in the blacksmith shop.
One of them was a s.h.i.+rtless and strong youth. He was wielding a small hammer and continuously hammering the sword embryo.
On the other side, a white-haired and short old man was melting a piece of fine iron, causing the fine iron to turn red.
Gongshu Yu quickly sensed the Overlord’s aura.
He put down his hands.
The overlord came in from outside.
Gongshu yu naturally recognized the overlord. His expression was neither warm nor cold.
“Overlord of Western Liang, what are you doing in my blacksmith shop?”
After Gongshu Yu had melted the refined iron, he immediately changed the venue and swung a big hammer. Blue Veins were twining on his arm, which was shocking.
The Overlord took a deep breath and cupped his hands toward Gongshu Yu.
“The refining pavilion is the place where the spirit tool is forged, which is recognized by young master Lu. This king is here to ask for a suitable weapon.”
The Overlord said.
Gongshu Yu stopped what he was doing.
The s.h.i.+rtless young man in the distance also stopped in shock. However, he was glared at by Gongshu Yu.
“Stop for what? Continue!”
Gongshu Yu’s tone was very irritable.
The youth’s heart was shocked, and he hurriedly continued to hit the hot iron.
Gongshu Yu caught the iron and put it into the cold water. The sizzling sound caused the cold water to boil.
“A suitable weapon… isn’t easy to get.”
Gongshu Yu said indifferently.
“Moreover, Overlord, the weapon you want isn’t an ordinary weapon.”
“If this old man’s guess isn’t wrong, Overlord wants a weapon in order to fight against the Genius’s elder that you killed, the Blue Sword Sect’s nascent soul realm, right?”
Gongshu Yu poured himself a cup of tea and suddenly drank a mouthful as he said.
Although he was calm and focused on refining weapons, he wasn’t some scholar who didn’t pay attention to the outside world.
“The Blue Sword Sect’s cornerstone treasure is the sword in the hand of the genius that you killed. Although this old man hasn’t studied it, this old man’s vision can judge that the sword should be a black grade spirit tool.”
Gongshu Yu said.
“So, Overlord, the weapon you want should be at least a black grade…”
Hearing this, the Overlord’s gaze slightly focused and he abruptly nodded.
“In this world, the only one who can refine a black grade spirit tool… is the young master.”
“But the young master took the white jade capital to retire, so no one can forge a black grade spirit tool.”
“Even this old man has never forged one.”
Gongshu Yu shook his head and said.
The Overlord’s brows could not help but furrow.
“There is an iron mother in the backyard. I once placed it in the origin lake outside the white jade capital and soaked it for three days and three nights. If you can split it open… This old man will try to forge a black grade spirit tool.”
Gongshu Yu held the Teacup, looked at the Overlord and said.
The Overlord’s gaze suddenly focused, incomparably resplendent.
“Good!”
The overlord didn’t hesitate, he was going all out anyway.
“Ah Lu, stop.”
Hearing the Overlord agree.
Gongshu Yu stopped the s.h.i.+rtless youth who was still forging.
“Yes, Master.”
The youth stopped the hammering in his hand, his sore arm slightly trembling.
The three left the blacksmith shop and entered the backyard.
In the backyard, the overlord saw many pieces of iron.
“Young master once told me that refining materials are very important, and the power of a spirit tool refined from good materials is also different.”
“In the current five Phoenix continent, the materials needed to refine weapons still need to be excavated, but now, only these are able to forge weapons.”
“This old man has soaked these materials in the lake of origin before, and compared to ordinary iron, they are even more magical.”
Finally.
They arrived at the center of the backyard.
The Overlord looked at the two-meter-tall piece of iron in front of him. There were four huge pieces of iron that he could not lift even if he hugged them together.
He was slightly dazed as he looked at it.
“If you can split him open, this old man will help you refine weapons.”
Gongshu Yu said. Behind him, Little Lu was extremely surprised. He had tried this piece of iron before, but he was unable to move it at all. He even used all his strength, but it still did not budge.
The Overlord took a deep breath.
He took a step back.
After slowly closing his eyes, the Overlord took a step forward.
Dong!
The ground trembled.
With a punch, the air was blasted with a loud sound.
PA!
The Overlord’s punch landed on the iron mother, causing it to shake slightly..
But the Overlord’s flesh and blood also spurted out blood.
“So Hard!”
The Overlord opened his eyes, his heart was shocked.
“This is the iron mother stone that has been soaked in the origin lake for three days and three nights. How can it not be strong?”
Gongshu Yu smiled faintly.
The Overlord also smiled. It was an excited smile.
A low roar.
Around the Overlord’s body, pitch-black demonic Qi was suddenly released. It continuously wrapped around his body, as if it was rising into the sky.
The Qi and blood in his body were churning. His spine seemed to appear, and there was a faint dragon roar that exploded in the sky.
The Overlord’s fist turned into a palm, and it seemed to carry a terrifying force that could pull a mountain out. It ruthlessly struck the Iron Mother Stone.
However.
The iron mother stone remained unmoved.
The Overlord’s blood exploded.
The Overlord’s gaze focused, and he did not retreat. He raised his hand again and ruthlessly struck down.
Pu Pu Pu!
That was the sound of flesh and blood colliding with a huge rock.
Time and time again, the Overlord’s hand was injured by the rock so much that even the ghastly white bones could be seen with the naked eye.
Finally, on the twentieth time.
The overlord let out a low growl.
A strange feeling rose in his heart, as if it had blessed his soul.
Bang!
The damage dealt by the rock after being struck twenty times all converged onto that palm at this moment.
Third-tier sequence dao intent… unyielding!
Chop!
The overlord seemed to be roaring in his heart.
The palm that was covered in blood seemed to contain an aura that could split open the sky.
Kacha!
The iron mother stone cracked.
The Overlord’s palm struck deep into it.
Then, the Overlord’s b.l.o.o.d.y hands grabbed the two ends of the iron mother stone and suddenly exerted force!
A roar exploded.
Kacha..
The iron mother stone was completely split into two halves!
And the Overlord’s arms also fell down powerlessly, fresh blood continuously dripping from them.
In the distance.
Gongshu Yu was shocked, and his new disciple, Little Lu, was so shocked that he couldn’t close his mouth.
Was this person… A Monster? !
“Gongshu pavilion master, how about… This?”
The overlord laughed.
Gongshu Yu didn’t refuse.
He raised his foot and stomped down fiercely.
Dong!
The center of the courtyard actually cracked open.
A huge iron furnace rose from the ground and supported the iron mother stone. There was actually a casting platform under the Iron Mother Stone!
Flames rose, bringing with them specks of white flames. They shot out from the tool-forging table and enveloped the entire iron mother stone.
The high temperature caused the iron mother stone to begin to melt.
The overlord and Little Lu retreated.
Gongshu Yu tore apart his clothes, revealing his valiant body.
He swung the hammer with one arm. His eyes were filled with excitement and determination.
“Ha!”
Gongshu yu shouted.
He had spent his entire life refining artifacts, and at this moment, he planned to refine a mystic grade spiritual artifact!
Dang!
Dang dang dang!
Gongshu yu swung the giant hammer, and his body spun. The giant hammer flew, and every time it flew, the hammer would hit the iron mother stone.
Again and again..
Even the Overlord felt tired just by looking at it.
He realized that Gongshu Yu’s palms were already bleeding from the friction with the handle of the hammer.
“It’s already the 2000th Hammer!”
On the side, Little Lu spoke fervently.
2000 hammers?
The Overlord was shocked.
However, Gongshu Yu did not stop, hammering again and again..
Time pa.s.sed little by little.
In the small city, it was as if one could hear the continuous sounds of hammering.
Dang!
Finally, Gongshu Yu’s hammer landed, and the bright red iron mother stone began to sink like a soft candy.
Gongshu Yu’s eyes suddenly lit up!
“Overlord! What weapon do you want? !”
Gongshu Yu’s vigorous body was covered in beads of sweat as he shouted.
The Overlord’s eyes were bright as he clenched his fists.
“One axe and one s.h.i.+eld!”
Hearing this, Gongshu Yu once again laughed out loud.
Following that, he actually held two hammers and took turns to hammer down. Each hammer was like a meteor that smashed down!
Sparks flew everywhere!
Heat waves surged!
..
300 Li away from the border of West County.
In the sky, an old man dressed in a black tight suit was floating cross-legged. A s.h.i.+ny sword was wiped clean and placed between his legs.
He floated all the way from the east.
On the official road.
Many mortals who were carrying heavy loads saw the figure floating in the sky and were terrified.
Some thought they had met an immortal and knelt on the ground.
Some chased after him fervently.
Some fled in fear.
Of course, some cultivators understood what had happened and followed the old man in the black suit from a distance.
The news soon spread.
The news that the sect master of the Cang Sword sect, Zhou Haisheng, had entered the inner land of the five phoenixes from Dongyang county spread very quickly.
A nascent soul realm expert could fly in the air.
Zhou Haisheng walked westward from Dongyang county and pa.s.sed through the southern county without stopping.
On the way, many small sects of the five phoenixes cultivation world met Zhou Haisheng and hurriedly hid in fear.
Cultivators who could fly in the air were not people they could afford to provoke.
Because of the transformation of the world in the five Phoenix Continent.
Zhou Haisheng flew from Dongyang County to west county, spending several days.
However, he was not in a hurry. He just walked slowly like this.
The faster he flew, the more sorrowful he felt. He even had a faint feeling of being abandoned.
His heart was cold, and all his hopes were dashed.
Blue Sword Sect’s hope, Zhou Liu, his own grandson, had died just like that.
With Zhou Liu Dead, Zhou Haisheng wanted to find another genius who could replace Zhou Liu, but he simply could not find one.
Zhou Haisheng, on the other hand, was severely injured in the world-ending battle in the Tian Yuan continent. He did not have many years left to live.
Many blue sword sect disciples began to retreat, leaving the sect.
Zhou Haisheng thought that the four forces would seek justice for him since he had risked everything in the world-ending battle and was able to obtain the protection of the four forces.
However, he did not expect that the martial emperor city, the Qian ‘er palace, and even the absolute blade sect would ignore him.
Zhou Haisheng’s heart was cold.
Zhou Haisheng was not stupid. How could an expert who could cultivate to the nascent soul realm be a fool.
He knew that the four great forces just didn’t want to take the lead.
They didn’t dare to test whether White Jade capital was really hidden, and didn’t dare to try to touch white jade capital’s bottom line.
Thus, they pushed Zhou Haisheng out.
They let Zhou Haisheng kill the Overlord to test white Jade Capital’s bottom line.
Zhou Haisheng was only a chess piece.
But, this chess piece, Zhou Haisheng didn’t have a choice.
He would first kill the Overlord, then destroy the Black Dragon sect… The Overlord was the murderer, but the instigator, Liu Yuanhao, was also to blame.
In the distance, at the end of the official road.
In the mountain pa.s.s.
The Fiery Red Dawn slowly rose. The light scattered down from the back of the mountain, illuminating the entire land.
Zhou Haisheng slowly landed on the ground and did not float anymore.
He held his sword and looked into the distance with his old eyes.
Numerous figures appeared under the illumination of the sunlight, densely packed together to almost block out the sunlight.
They were soldiers who wore armor and had an imposing bearing. They also had a wild and domineering aura.
This was the Xiang family army of Xiliang!
The strongest cultivation army under the overlord.
Zhou Haisheng was very calm as he looked at this powerful army indifferently.
He did not walk, but sat on the ground.
He rubbed the sword in his hand. This sword was the cornerstone treasure of the Cang Sword Sect, a first grade magic artifact, the Cang Life Sword.
When he gave it to his grandson, Zhou Liu, he had placed high hopes on it.
But now..
It had become a relic.
He placed the sword on his legs and closed his eyes slightly.
Zhou Haisheng opened his mouth and breathed slightly, actually breathing in and out air currents.
Xu Chu and the other great generals of Xiliang were sitting on their BMW as they stared vigilantly at the old man who was sitting cross-legged on the official road.
1
Suddenly.
The old man opened his eyes.
“Where is Xiang Shaoyun?”
“There is a reason for the injustice, and there is a reason for the debt. This old man will not implicate others and kill innocents indiscriminately. Therefore, I will give three days…”
“If Xiang Shaoyun does not appear three days later…”
“This old man will destroy all the cities in Xiliang.”
