Chapter 699: Begging for Forgiveness…


Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations


Hao Ren looked through the mist and saw Lingwu Master. The latter was wearing a grey Taoist robe with Eight Trigram patterns, and he sat on the level 6 snow lion Jitian.


While he spoke, he cupped hands and paid respect to Ethereal Summit.


Beside Lingwu Master was Duan Ye, Sky Mountain Sect Master, who sat on the level 5 snow lion, Luojia.


Behind them were eight disciples who were riding on level 4 snow lions including Mo Lianshan who had been beaten to the Foundation Establishment Realm by Hao Ren.


Xie Yujia looked at Hao Ren in confusion, and Zhao Yanzi also looked concerned.


“Little White!” Hao Ren called out, and Little White who had reached level 5 immediately transformed into its snow lion form which was the size of five people and carried Hao Ren on its back.


When Hao Ren flew out of the valley, Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia also followed him out on their dharma treasures after a moment of consideration.


Hovering in the sky outside of Ethereal Summit, Lingwu Master and the others saw Hao Ren coming out of the valley while riding on a snow lion, followed by two female cultivators.


The female cultivator on the left was stepping on the Purple Green Treasure Sword, an ultimate dharma treasure of Sky Mountain Sect.


Hao Ren looked at Lingwu Master and found that the latter who only had weak nature essence last night had recovered to the Core Formation Realm.


The black-faced Mo Lianshan looked like he recovered a lot even though he wasn’t back at the Core Formation Realm yet.


“We are sorry that Sky Mountain Sect offended Ethereal Summit several times. Today, I’ve recovered a bit and came to beg for your forgiveness,” Lingwu Master said to Hao Ren with a genial expression.


“Ok.” Hao Ren nodded.


The Core Formation Realm cultivators standing behind Lingwu Master saw Zhao Yanzi. They remembered that she was only at the Foundation Establishment Realm last night, but it looked like she was now at the Core Formation Realm. It convinced them that Zhao Yanzi had indeed hidden her realm last night.


“In the cultivation world, it is extraordinary to have a Core Formation Realm female cultivator as a cultivation partner. However, the Herb King Master has several powerful concubines including Duan Yao and this girl, which shows his status…” they thought.


Since Duan Yao had declared that she had cut off all ties with Sky Mountain Sky, it was hard for them to gain favor from the Herb King Master. However, it would be great if the Herb King Master forgave Sky Mountain Sect for its past offenses.


Meanwhile, other Core Formation Realm cultivators were staring at Xie Yujia who stood on the other side of Hao Ren.


“This beautiful and virtuous female cultivator looks to be only several years older than the other girl, and the cloud-like flight dharma treasure under her feet is especially unique,” they thought.


All the dharma treasures were made of array formations and materials. However, this soft material could support the weight of one cultivator, showing that it was an extraordinary dharma treasure with very complex array formations inside.


There were some big flight dharma treasures on Sixth Heaven. However, most flight dharma treasures were flying swords, and they could support the weight of one to two cultivators.


This white cloth which looked like a white cloud could support the weight of a cultivator with ease, making it an eye-catching treasure.


The Core Formation Realm cultivators wondered how many treasures the Herb King Master had.


Zhao Yanzi was also envious of Xie Yujia’s pretty flight dharma treasure, but since she had refined the Purple Green Treasure Sword and made it her natal dharma treasure, she was feeling better now.


“I learned that this partner of yours is cultivating the Big Dipper Constellation Scroll from Sky Mountain Sect, so I brought the second half of the scroll.” Lingwu Master looked at Hao Ren and continued.


Standing on the Purple Green Treasure Sword, Zhao Yanzi blushed at his words.


“Who is his partner?” Zhao Yanzi murmured in a low voice but felt sweet inside.


“Hehe. Good…” Hao Ren nodded with a smile.


If Lingwu Master only came to apologize with a group of people, it would mean nothing. However, they solved Hao Ren’s problem by bringing the second half of the Big Dipper Constellation Scroll.


After reaching the Core Formation Realm and refining the Purple Green Treasure Sword, Zhao Yanzi could now use the first four sword techniques in the Big Dipper Constellation Scroll continuously. However, she had only the first half of the scroll. If she wanted to continue cultivating, they must think of a way to get the second half.


Since the second half of the scroll was in Sky Mountain Sect, Hao Ren would have to force them to hand the scroll over, but he didn’t want to force others.


Now that Sky Mountain Sect offered the scroll on their own, Hao Ren wouldn’t need to mess with Sky Mountain Sect again.


Hao Ren shot out a sword energy which took the second half of the scroll from Lingwu Master’s hand.


Sitting on the back of his level 6 snow lion, Lingwu Master was silently amazed by the nimbleness of Hao Ren’s invisible sword energy which swept across his palm accurately.


“Take a look.” Hao Ren tossed it to Zhao Yanzi afterward.


Zhao Yanzi caught the scroll and flipped through several pages before smiling at Hao Ren; it was the second half of the Big Dipper Constellation Scroll that she had wanted.


Lingwu Master took the opportunity to observe Zhao Yanzi and found that she was stepping on the Purple Green Treasure Sword. He sighed silently since he knew that this young girl had refined the Purple Green Treasure Sword.


Both the Purple Green Treasure Sword and the Big Dipper Constellation Scroll were the top-tier items that Sky Mountain Sect had prepared for Duan Yao. However, Duan Yao had now left Sky Mountain Sect, and an outsider had taken these two items.


Since the sword had been refined into a natal dharma treasure, it was impossible to take it back even if they wanted to trade it with a lot of treasures.


The most humiliating thing for Sky Mountain Sect wasn’t that an outsider took their Purple Green Treasure Sword. Instead, it was that they had to offer the second half of the scroll after the first half of the technique had been taken by force.


It was like someone offered his right cheek to the enemy who had just slapped his left cheek.


They were powerless in this situation… After all, the Herb King Master possessed extreme power, and even his mount was a level 5 snow lion, let alone his possession of a supreme spiritual treasure.


Lingwu Master shook his head silently in defeat.


Despite all the unfortunate events that had happened to Sky Mountain Sect, he felt fortunate that he could cultivate again and had hopes of returning to the Nascent Soul Realm after cultivating in seclusion for a while. There was still the chance that Sky Mountain Sect could go back to its former glory.


Sitting on the back of the level 5 snow lion, Luojia, Duan Ye looked toward Ethereal Summit that was covered in mist, hoping to see Duan Yao again.


However, Duan Yao was now ‘following’ the powerful Herb King Master, and he couldn’t see or ask about her even though she was his daughter.


“Sky Mountain Sect is thankful for the Herb King Master’s generosity. If Master has any errands in the future, Sky Mountain Sect will do its best to help,” Lingwu Master said while cupping his hands.


Facing the Herb King Master who had almost destroyed Sky Mountain Sect, Sky Mountain Sect didn’t dare to hold any grudges. Instead, it showed its intention of following Ethereal Summit.


It seemed humiliating, but it was an act in the interest of Sky Mountain Sect. If they wanted to maintain their status on Sixth Heaven, they must attach themselves to Ethereal Summit!


Standing behind Duan Ye, Mo Lianshan’s face was dark. At the Foundation Establishment Realm, he was the only cultivator among the group whose realm was below the Core Formation Realm.


Obviously, he was brought along to beg for forgiveness.


However, Hao Ren’s gaze swept across his face without any intention to punish him.


Stepping on the Purple Green Treasure Sword, Zhao Yanzi glared at him and remembered that she had been chased around by Mo Lianshan!


At that time, Mo Lianshan was at the Core Formation Realm and Zhao Yanzi was at the Foundation Establishment Realm. However, Zhao Yan was now at the Core Formation Realm while Mo Lianshan was at the Foundation Establishment Realm. Their strengths had been completely reversed!


If Zhao Yanzi attacked, Mo Lianshan would have to run around the mountains!


Things would change, but Mo Lianshan had never imagined that the situation would change so fast!


“By the way, the emergence of the supreme spiritual treasure last night seemed to have attracted the attention of some masters on Seventh Heaven,” Lingwu Master continued after a pause of several seconds.


“Oh?” Hao Ren became a little alarmed.


There were several Soul Formation Realm cultivators on Seventh Heaven; that was why the sects on Sixth Heaven couldn’t elevate to Seventh Heaven easily.


To elevate to Seventh Heaven, Sky Mountain Sect had acc.u.mulated strength for hundreds of years, but all their efforts went to waste due to the incident with Ethereal Summit.


If Lingwu Master had remained at the peak Nascent Soul Realm, Sky Mountain Sect might have a chance at moving to Seventh Heaven with the help of Jitian.


If they had a Soul Formation Realm cultivator, they could surely move up to Seventh Heaven.


Despite the small number of sects on Seventh Heaven, they each had the power which could suppress Sixth Heaven and Fifth Heaven.


If they targeted Ethereal Summit…


Hao Ren wasn’t confident that he could battle with Soul Formation Realm cultivators, especially the ones who were the overlords in their sects.


If the golden s.h.i.+eld messed around on Seventh Heaven, the powerful cultivators could potentially capture it easily.


After reaching level 2 as a supreme spiritual treasure, the golden s.h.i.+eld could almost be called the strongest s.h.i.+eld in the world, qualified to be a dharma treasure for a Soul Formation Realm cultivator.


Knowing Old Grandma’s personality, Hao Ren knew that she wouldn’t mind anything as long as Xie Yujia wasn’t hurt, and she wouldn’t care if Hao Ren lost his dharma treasure.


Qingfeng Hermit practiced dharma notes that could change into many forms and thus didn’t need dharma treasures, but it wasn’t the case for other Soul Formation Realm cultivators.


“Ok. I got it.” Hao Ren looked calm.


The golden s.h.i.+eld could run wild on Fifth Heaven and Sixth Heaven, and it was time to restrain it. Otherwise, some Soul Formation Realm cultivators on Seventh Heaven would probably find a reason to take it.


Hao Ren still counted on it to block some powerful Qian-level and Kun-level dragon cultivators, so he wouldn’t want it to be taken by the Soul Formation Realm cultivators.


“Farewell.” Lingwu Master turned to Sixth Heaven with Duan Ye and the eight disciples.


Sky Mountain Sect must attach itself to Ethereal Summit to survive!


Hao Ren looked at the sky and realized that it was almost time to return to land. He beckoned at Xie Yujia and called her over to sit beside him.


The news that Sky Mountain Sect brought about Seven Heaven was very important. Hao Ren had dealings with Fifth Heaven and Sixth Heaven, but he had neglected Seventh Heaven.


Whoos.h.!.+ Seeing that Hao Ren was ready to return to land, the golden s.h.i.+eld flew out from Ethereal Summit and followed Hao Ren like a shadow.


Boom!


Little White circulated its demonic essence and turned golden all over before flying toward First Heaven.
