Chapter 2160: True Motive

Zhang Ruochen’s gaze turned cold. He had never thought that such a thing would happen in Kunlun. It was really sad.


But the current situation in Kunlun would indeed make some people feel desperate. No wonder they would want to prepare a way out in advance.


But even if they could join the powerful worlds, they were still not strong enough, so their lives wouldn’t be easy either. They had to bow and bend their knees to others. They would also be like slaves with no dignity


“Do you have a way to save Xue Wuye?” The Nine-heavens Maiden looked at Zhang Ruochen with hope in her eyes.


Every Realm Bearer had an important mission, so it would be a pity if they died in vain. Their death would also be a great blow to Kunlun.


A charming sword attendant kept kowtowing to Zhang Ruochen while crying at the same time. “It’s all my fault that the Master Xue is in danger, Master Zhang. You must save the him even if it costs my life. I’m willing to die for this.”


Zhang Ruochen gave the sword attendant a cursory glance. She was indeed very beautiful and possessed an alluring mystique. It was no wonder that Gu Xin’ao had his eye on her.


“All of you, leave first,” Zhang Ruochen said.


Hearing this, no one hesitated. Everyone hurriedly left the practice room. Xue Wuye’s life was hanging by a thread. There was no time to be wasted.


Closing the practice room door, Zhang Ruochen carefully examined Xue Wuye lying on the jade bed. Then, with a flick of his wrist he took out something roughly the size of a fist. The object was dark green, and it gave off an extremely rich aura of vitality.


This was the Heart of the Divine Tree nurtured by the Divine Sky-connecting Tree. The heart possessed the miraculous ability to make bones and flesh regrow. Approximately 129,600 years were needed to extract the hearts, making them priceless. Even G.o.ds would yearn for it.


In Xianji Mountain of Northern Region, Zhang Ruochen had only obtained seven hearts of the Divine Sky-connecting Tree. He had given two to the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers and Mu Lingxi, so he had five left.


‘Saint Monk Xumi had once taught Xue Wuye swordsmans.h.i.+p for a month. He even gave him Brands of Time and Dimension, which could signify a deeper meaning. No matter what, we have to keep Xue Wuye alive.


‘In a sense, the two of us could even be considered as brothers. Xue Wuye, I hope this Heart of the Divine Tree wouldn’t be a waste on you.


‘If you can’t become a top elite in the future, I’ll personally take back your Brands of Time and Dimension for my master,’ Zhang Ruochen thought.


After obtaining the Secret Tome of Time and s.p.a.ce and the Sacred Qiankun Wooden Picture Scroll, Zhang Ruochen was undoubtedly Saint monk Xumi’s disciple. However, he wasn’t as lucky as Xue Wuye to have seen him in person.


Zhang Ruochen didn’t hesitate anymore. He flipped his hand and pressed the Heart of the Divine Tree into Xue Wuye’s body.


He didn’t need to do anything else, because the Heart of the Divine Tree emitted a majestic life force and merged with Xue Wuye’s flesh and bones. It immediately started healing Xue Wuye’s broken and injured body.


It had to be said that this was a great opportunity for Xue Wuye. After merging with the Heart of the Divine Tree, not only could his life be saved, but he could also receive great benefits that have a profound effect on his future training.


Nourished by the life force, the scars and injuries on Xue Wuye’s body healed quickly. Even the three major meridians were rebuilt.


Zhang Ruochen opened the Heaven’s Eye between his eyebrows and carefully observed Xue Wuye’s situation. This was undoubtedly a great opportunity for him to understand the mystery of the Heart of the Divine Tree.


It didn’t take long for the wounds on Xue Wuye’s body to be completely healed. His physique was greatly strengthened, and he attained the state of ‘Perfection Physique’ without going through the stages.


The recovery of the Saint Soul was relatively more troublesome, but it was only a matter of time.


With Xue Wuye’s current status, naturally he could not completely absorb the Heart of the Divine Tree. Most of the essence would be stored in his body to be released slowly afterwards.


Six hours later, Xue Wuye’s injuries healed and he slowly awakened.


“Thank you, brother Zhang, for saving my life.” Xue Wuye stood up and thanked Zhang Ruochen gratefully.


He knew very well how serious his injury was, but now he was safe and sound. With only Zhang Ruochen by his side, it was obvious what had happened.


Zhang Ruochen said, “I let you fuse with a Heart of the Divine Tree. I hope you would make good use of it.”


Hearing this, Xue Wuye’s couldn’t help but shuddered. He knew how precious a Heart of the Divine Tree was. No wonder that even his serious injuries were healed.


He could clearly feel that his physical quality and Saint Soul had become stronger. Even his status had improved. Numerous precepts of life had been added to his body.


“Saint Monk Xumi once said that I would face a great calamity. If I can’t survive it, I’ll die. If I survive it, I’ll get unimaginable benefits. It really came true,” Xue Wuye sighed.


Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen couldn’t help but look surprised. He hadn’t expected Saint Monk Xumi to have predicted what would happen today.


However, the future was unpredictable. Even Saint Monk Xumi wasn’t sure if Xue Wuye could have endured this catastrophe.


Zhang Ruochen looked at Xue Wuye and said, “With your temperament, how could you be so easily provoked by Gu Xin’ao?”


Although Zhang Ruochen had not had much contact with Xue Wuye, he knew that Xue Wuye was not someone impulsive. Even if it was for the sword attendant, he would not be stupid enough to throw his life away.


Especially since Xue Wuye was the mayor of Wan Xiang City and the Realm Bearer of Kunlun, he shouldered a heavy responsibility, so he should not act rashly.


“I also know that I am not a match for Gu Xin’ao, so I did not plan to fight with him at first. I was going to leave with the sword attendant, but he said that he wanted to have a friendly match and not compete in cultivation strength. As a sword pract.i.tioner, how could i fall back?”


“However, I did not expect that Gu Xin’ao would be so despicable. He is the leader of the Saber Empyrean, yet he reneged on his promise. After exchanging a few dozen moves, he used his overwhelming strength to heavily injure me and s.n.a.t.c.hed away my Seal of Ten Sword,”Xue Wuye said despondently.


No matter how well trained he was, he was still filled with anger when he encountered such an aggravating thing.


If Gu Xin’ao had really defeated him in regular sword fight, he would have nothing to say. However, he would never accept using such a despicable method of injuring him.


Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen suddenly realized that Gu Xin’ao had indeed planned beforehand. It seemed that him taking fancy to the sword attendant was just an act. His real target was Xue Wuye.


Moreover, the Flying Fairy Sword Technique of Wanxiang City was obviously what Gu Xin’ao wanted.


Xue Wuye suddenly became serious, “Brother Zhang, I have a presumptuous request, which I do not know whether you can promise me.”


“What is it?” Zhang Ruochen replied.


Xue Wuye said, “I want you to intervene and take back the Seal of Ten Sword, Wan Xiang city’s Flying Fairy Sword Technique, because we cannot let it fall into Saber Empyrean’s hands.”


“Since Gu Xin’ao has already taken the Seal of Ten Sword, he will certainly have comprehended it. Even if we take it back, I’m afraid it will be too late,” Zhang Ruochen said.


Xue Wuye shook his head and said, “The Seal of Ten Sword that I carried is the symbol of the mayor of Wanxiang City. There are layers of seals on them which will not be easily broken.”


Xue Wuye continued after pausing for a while, “After entering Kunlun, the cultivators of Saber Empyrean have been trying to collect all kinds of sword manuals. They even have plans to attack the Sword Pavilion.


“Although Saber Empyrean is known as the holy land of swordsmans.h.i.+p, they yearn for the Wordless Sword Manual.


“The Flying Fairy Sword Technique originates from the Wordless Sword Manual. It contains the secrets of Sword One to Sword Ten. Saber Empyrean has been coveting it for a long time. Perhaps this was the reason why Gu Xin’ao took action personally.”


Zhang Ruochen’s heart skipped a beat. The Flying Fairy Sword Technique was one of the most powerful sword techniques in Kunlun. Even in a Macroworld with foundation as solid as of Saber Empyrean, it was hard to find any sword techniques comparable to it in the sword manuals of the same level, let alone the ones that could surpa.s.s it.


In fact, there were many Macroworlds coveting the powerful inheritances of Kunlun. For example, the demonic great worlds like the Blackdemon realm wanted to steal the Demonstone Engraving.


The six great tomes of Kunlun had long been famous throughout the worlds. They were the targets of countless macro worlds.


Once they lost all the powerful inheritances, Kunlun’s strength would be lost and have no hope of rising again.
