Legend of Swordsman

Chapter 5748 - 5748 Big Shot

5748 Big Shot

Although the Blood Robe Sect was formidable, the proverb “a powerful dragon cannot crush a local snake” held true, and the underworld understood this principle even better.

Engaging now would surely result in a disadvantage.

Just moments ago, he couldn’t fathom how Jian Wushuang managed to conceal his aura and still dared to ambush him.

Just as they were about to depart, a formidable figure from the Daughter Kingdom descended.

A Universe Master at the Fifth Tribulation.

His countenance appeared to be in his late twenties or early thirties, yet he exuded an unusual charm.

“Esteemed guests, this is a crucial territory of our nation, one must not act rashly without permission, I hope for your understanding!”

“Purple-clad Fairy, your timing is impeccable. This is my first visit to your Daughter Kingdom, so why not lead us to pay respects to the monarch?” Patriarch Yanlong swiftly changed the subject.

Leading Jian Wushuang and Jinchen, they headed towards the Purple-clad Fairy.

Before leaving, Jian Wushuang glanced back at the red-haired youth.

His gaze indeed sparked a sense of repulsion within him.

At this moment, Jinchen’s perception of Jian Wushuang underwent some changes. He whispered, “Thank you for earlier.”

“What’s there to thank me for? Don’t tell me you think that guy took a liking to you!” Jian Wushuang retorted unkindly. “I just thought that guy had some good intentions, taking a liking to me, that’s why I intervened!”

Her tough words caused Jinchen’s recent change in perception to vanish, and she rolled her eyes at Jian Wushuang.

When the Purple-clad Fairy saw it was Patriarch Yanlong, her face lit up with joy.

“Are you Fengchen’s daughter?” the Purple-clad Fairy inquired.

Jinchen was taken aback by the question, then quickly nodded.

Seeing Jinchen, the Purple-clad Fairy was delighted, she stepped forward and grabbed Jinchen’s hand, exchanging pleasantries.

Jian Wushuang couldn’t help but feel jealous.

Why wasn’t there a fairy coming to comfort him?

He also needed someone to console him now!

Guided by the Purple-clad Fairy, the three of them broke through the clouds and entered the palace of the Daughter Kingdom.

Looking along the clouds, Jian Wushuang couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, “Why do these royal families always like to build their palaces in the clouds!”

Upon entering the imperial palace, Jian Wushuang noticed distinct differences from the palace in Yue Kingdom.

The setting here seemed more attuned to the mundane.

Everywhere were various kinds of flowers, vibrant and colorful.

In the Daughter Kingdom, populated entirely by women, this wasn’t surprising.

What was peculiar was how, despite being all women, they could continue to proliferate.

Jian Wushuang had inquired about it before.

Rumors had it that the celestial maidens of old left behind a spring, drinking from which would induce pregnancy.

And only daughters were born.

Jian Wushuang pondered what would happen if a man were to drink from it.

That mental image…

Jian Wushuang dared not dwell on it.

Upon entering the palace, twisting and turning through several corridors, they arrived at a grand hall.

This seemed to be a side hall.

Many had already taken their seats.

There were thousands of thrones.

The hall bustled with activity, mostly occupied by those of the Tribulation Realm, with a few in the Fifth Tribulation realm.

There were quite a few Universe Masters present as well.

The gathering awaited the discourse of the rulers, each sharing their experiences of successful tribulation crossings.

Even Universe Masters of the Sixth Tribulation attended in numbers.

Jian Wushuang immediately spotted the burly man sitting at the forefront, his short hair quite contemporary, with streaks of gray at the temples, his beard likewise.

However, his face was extremely resolute.

Similar to the demeanor of Shi Jiu back then, or perhaps Shi Jiu resembled him to some extent.

Shi Xiu!

The Universe Master of Shi Kingdom, who had the most promising chance to enter the Seventh Tribulation in the current era.

He was also a formidable figure contemporary with the Ruler of the Daughter Kingdom.

They had once fought side by side, but never had it crossed their minds that one would surpass the other.

Apart from Shi Xiu, there were also several Universe Masters at the Sixth Tribulation realm, all of them being outstanding talents of their respective domains.

Their status was even higher than that of those at the Seventh Tribulation realm.

The forces coming to congratulate this time were either Universe Masters or those at the Tribulation realm.

Even the Scattered Tribulation cultivators were powerful beings at the Sixth Tribulation realm or higher.

Jian Wushuang, following Patriarch Yanlong, remained inconspicuous.

As Patriarch Yanlong took his seat, Jian Wushuang and Jincheng could only stand behind the throne.

Ding!

A crisp and melodious sound rang out, attracting the gaze of most people.

Jian Wushuang also followed the sound with his eyes.

Four auras soared into the sky, approaching from outside the hall.

“A big shot!”

Everyone held their breath.

Four figures.

Standing at the forefront was a middle-aged man with a beard, his complexion steady, a jade pendant hanging from his waist. Deep within his profound eyes lay hidden a great depth of scheming.

“Marquis Tie Dan!”

Sent by the Ancient Moon Temple to Ancient Wood Continent, this super powerhouse was not exactly a native of the continent.

But within the Ancient Wood Continent, they wielded immense power and had an unfathomable strength.

Rumors had it that they possessed the power of an Eighth Tribulation expert.

In the Ancient Wood Continent, the only being capable of matching them was Flame God.

The other two with Eighth Tribulation realm, had very little vitality left, making it impossible for them to act properly.

As for the Marquis Tie Dan, he was the Universe Master and not particularly interested in Babidi.

“Marquis!”

“Brother Zhu!”

For a moment, the few remaining Seventh Tribulation experts in the hall greeted each other politely as they stood up.

These Seventh Tribulation experts were either patriarchs of their respective factions or the heads of powerful forces.

However, upon seeing the Marquis Tie Dan, they were exceptionally courteous.

It was because Tie Dan was now the pinnacle Universe Master of the Seventh Tribulation, whereas they themselves were no longer Universe Masters.

The tribulation crossing process was still lengthy.

Even if they were to fail in crossing the tribulation, they still had a considerable amount of vitality to sustain them for countless ages.

They were poised to outlive many of the old folks like them.

And in the event of a successful tribulation crossing, they would become pioneers of a new era.

That was why many people were extremely courteous to every Seventh Tribulation Universe Master, even the eight-star sects extended their warm hospitality.

In case the tribulation crossing was successful, it would be an enormous stroke of luck.

Marquis Tie Dan glanced around with a smile and calmly remarked, “It seems I’m not too late in arriving!”

He then took a seat directly beside the main position.

Of course, the main seat was reserved for the ruler of the Daughter Kingdom.

Currently, in the Daughter Kingdom, the one welcoming everyone outside is a formidable figure at the Seventh Tribulation, also considered one of the elder ancestors of the Daughter Kingdom.

Although the Daughter Kingdom has invited Eighth Tribulation elders, there are still quite a few at the Seventh Tribulation level.

Even before the establishment of the Ancient Wood Sect, the Daughter Kingdom existed, with a history even longer than that of the Ancient Wood Sect or even the Ancient Moon Sect.

Naturally, there were many Seventh Tribulation experts born in the Daughter Kingdom.

In this era, a Universe Master at the Seventh Tribulation has emerged, bringing further glory to the Daughter Kingdom spanning several eras.

As various dignitaries continue to arrive, there are few seats left in the great hall.

Jian Wushuang takes the opportunity to record information about these powerful figures, preparing for future escapes.

The strongest among them was Marquis Tie Dan.

His vitality alone surpassed everyone else.

His strength reminds Jian Wushuang of the Qishen Temple.

When the Qishen’s physical body was resurrected, he also witnessed such power.

Perhaps the current Tie Dan is still slightly inferior to the Qishen Temple, but the power is already close.

The strength of the Universe Master is even more intense than what the Tribulation realm gives him.

If the Tribulation realm is a pond, then the Universe Master is an ocean.

A pond will eventually dry up.

But an ocean is endless.

No wonder Qishen was unwilling to settle with just being a Scattered Tribulation cultivator.

Now it all made sense.
