Chapter 1972: Chapter 959: Xingxuan and Xing Ji_2
Chen Mobai smiled and spoke, then mentioned the matter of borrowing the path, after all, the road he was taking was opened by Kong Sang Valley.
"This is an honor for our sect, and it’s quite coincidental that Ku Zhu, the Sect Leader, has just returned from overseas, also intending to participate in this Beidou Conference. You two might meet then."
Yi Chenghan revealed some news, and Chen Mobai nodded slightly after hearing it.
"Ku Zhu and Bai Wu the Ancestor of Sun Bathing Sea have a deep vendetta. With his character, he probably won’t let this matter go easily upon his return."
After leaving the East Barbarians and entering the Ruins, Zhou Ye spoke.
During his rule over Bright Mirror Mountain, he constantly thought about annexing the entire East Barbarians; among them, sixteen Golden Core forces were fence-sitters. Kong Sang Valley was too weak to be considered, with only Sun Bathing Sea being a concern.
"It’s not good to move against Golden Crow Immortal City before opening the wilderness."
Chen Mobai heard this and simply said this line.
Zhou Ye immediately understood and nodded lightly.
...
In the Ruins between East Barbarians and East Yu, Chen Mobai advanced along the same route he had taken last time with Mu Qin Ancestor, quickly encountering the Rank-4 Dark Purple Scorpion.
Sinister dark red demonic Qi surged from the valley below; Mo Douguang and Zhou Ye’s faces changed slightly, planning to make a move, but Chen Mobai had already pointed out a finger.
A bright sword thread burst forth, instantly cutting the terrifying Rank-4 Monster along with the mountain peak it stood upon into two neat halves.
This scene shocked all Five Elements Sect Disciples present.
Especially Zhou Ye, who refined the Primordial Five Elements Extinction Divine Thunder using the Yuan Infant Heavenly Tribulation. Although he knew he was not a match for Chen Mobai, he thought he could at least withstand a few moves if he fought Chen Mobai.
After seeing this, he felt he might not be able to withstand even a single sword!
Is this the number one Sword Dao in Eastern Wilderness over a thousand years!
Zhou Ye deeply felt fortunate to be a member of the Five Elements Sect, no wonder Bai Wu Ancestor was so anxious despite having a Fifth Rank Great Formation, not daring to step out of Golden Crow Immortal City.
"Unexpectedly, Sect Leader Junior Brother has mastered ’Condensing Sword into Thread’. I estimate that within the Nascent Soul Realm, besides those perfected old monsters, no one can be your match."
Mo Douguang, usually silent, gazed at Chen Mobai’s Yuan Yang Sword Thread with an unexpectedly rich expression, speaking a rare long sentence.
"With Senior Brother’s swordsmanship talent, you will surely master it soon."
Chen Mobai smiled as he said this, and at this moment, Qing Nu had already flown down to collect the corpse of the Rank-4 Scorpion.
Zhuo Ming and the other three girls hurriedly followed, but Chen Mobai stopped them.
This Dark Purple Scorpion is a highly toxic creature, and cultivators who don’t understand its nature risk poisoning even if they merely breathe in the air emitted by its corpse.
"We can refine a batch of Purple Spirit Pills when we return..."
After Qing Nu used the Wanhua Gourd to stow away the corpse, she returned to the Five-Colored Auspicious Cloud.
Chen Mobai did not delay further and continued flying towards East Yu, riding the Tai Yi Wu Yan Luo.
Half a day after they left, a One-Leaf Bamboo Boat flew to this location.
On the Bamboo Raft was one man and two women, who focused completely on reaching Scorpio Ridge, only to find that this once vigilant land had completely transformed.
The originally raised mountain peak appeared to have been sliced open by a Heavenly Gate, split down the middle with a smooth cut, which still exuded lingering heat and a concentrated fierce Evil Qi.
"What terrifying Sword Sha!"
The three people on the Bamboo Raft were Ku Zhu from Kong Sang Valley, and Ming Wen True Person Xiao Lingri, master and disciple. The latter two only sensed the residual overwhelming heat and Evil Qi, but as a Nascent Soul cultivator, Ku Zhu saw through it immediately.
"This is not just Sword Sha, but Sword Intent, and... Condensing Sword into Thread!"
Ku Zhu flew down from the Bamboo Raft, landing between the spread mountain ridge, personally experiencing it, and couldn’t help but show an expression of amazement.
After leaving Submerged Abyss Island, he constantly received the Tianyuan Dao Fruit’s influence, advancing rapidly in cultivation, breaking through to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage over a decade ago, progressing as fast as those Daoist Saintess from the Holy Land.
Yet, even so, only recently did he manage to vaguely comprehend the mystery of Condensing Sword into Thread through the Dao Fruit.
"No wonder the Qing Emperor Daozi of Yi Yuan Dao Palace; this level of Sword Dao Realm, even without Divinity Transformation in East Continent, is enough to dominate invincibly."
With Ku Zhu’s words, Ming Wen True Person couldn’t help showing a face of surprise.
As soon as Chen Mobai and his party left, Yi Chenghan sent the news of borrowing the path to Kong Sang Valley, so upon seeing the disappearance of the Dark Purple Scorpion, they suspected Chen Mobai was involved.
Back in Northern Abyss City, when they met Chen Mobai, Ming Wen True Person felt that this person was exceptionally powerful, not like someone who could be cultivated in a small place like Eastern Wilderness.
But she never expected that in just sixty to seventy years, this person not only developed the vast foundation of Five Elements Sect but also did not neglect cultivation, mastering the terrifying Sword Dao Realm of Condensing Sword into Thread.
"Let’s go, I’m becoming more and more curious about this Yi Yuan Daozi!"
Ku Zhu returned to the Bamboo Raft and spoke to Ming Wen True Person, who was steering the Bamboo Raft; he had originally planned to take action and slay the Dark Purple Scorpion.
The inner core of a Rank-4 Monster is precious material even at the Beidou Conference.
...
Chen Mobai naturally didn’t know he had snatched Ku Zhu’s prey; he thought he was helping Kong Sang Valley by clearing the biggest obstacle on this road.
