Young Noble Be Monster Slaying

Chapter 294: Riding the Skies on the White Dragon!

"Esteemed Teacher!" Chu Liang called out as he hurried over to Di Nufeng.

As always, my esteemed teacher never lets me down when fighting's involved. When I call her, she comes over at once. And when she arrives, she goes straight into battle mode. And when she fights, her battles always end in victory.

"I was having a great time fighting when the Azure Ophidian Sword's spirit suddenly came over and said you were in danger, so I rushed over." Di Nufeng had a lively, radiant gaze. It was obvious from a glance that she was on a high. "Are you all right? If you're fine, I need to hurry back."

There were jumping flames all over her body, revealing just how uncontrollably eager she was to get back to fighting. Her eyes were shining so brightly that it was blinding.

Chu Liang had never seen his teacher in such high spirits before.

It seemed that Di Nufeng's true nature had been released from the depths of her heart upon getting a rare chance to participate in such a grand battle.

Chu Liang handed over a yellow book and said, "Esteemed Teacher, I found something hidden beneath this sea of clouds."

Di Nufeng scanned the book with her divine sense and hastily put it away without taking a close look at its contents.

She remarked, "It has too many words. I'll find someone smart to read it later."

Di Nufeng was well aware of her weakness with words, but that wasn't the real reason she said that. She was just itching to return to the battlefield; she didn't want to miss out on too much of the battle. Di Nufeng wanted to fight!

Seeing her impatient expression, Chu Liang hurriedly asked, "How's the situation on Heaven-Reaching Peak?"

Di Nufeng answered, "We can't intervene in the battle in the sky, but we're gaining the upper hand on the ground. Thanks to the information you gave us, we were able to catch those cultivators from the Dark King Sect off guard."

The battle in the sky she mentioned involved those at the eighth realm. It was such an elite battle that even Di Nufeng could do nothing except gaze up at it… and dream of being able to participate in a battle like that in the future.

Nonetheless, the Mount Shu Sect was dominating the battle involving those at the seventh realm and below.

Chu Liang was quite satisfied. The time he'd spent working hard as an undercover agent had not been in vain. It was clear that the information he had given to his sect had played a role in helping them gain the upper hand.

Chu Liang was only at the fourth realm, so he would only be able to kill a few diabolical cultivators at most on his own. However, with just a small piece of information, he'd managed to help greatly reduce the number of casualties his sect might have suffered.

Then Chu Liang said, "Esteemed Teacher, if the situation on Heaven-Reaching Peak is stable, why don't you head to Sword Sheath Peak first? The Weapons Master is currently over there fighting the hall master of the Northern Abyss Hall."

The Weapons Master had the upper hand earlier, but the hall master of the Northern Abyss Hall had been famous for many years as a seventh-realm cultivator. Moreover, he was known to use unconventional methods. If they were to continue fighting, the Weapons Master might end up in danger.

It would be better to have my teacher go there and team up with the Weapons Master. Together, they would have the upper hand and be able to wipe out one of the Dark King Sect's key players. Then the Weapons Master would be free to join the main battlefield on Heaven-Reaching Peak as well, providing greater support to the main forces than my teacher alone.

"Sword Sheath Peak, right?" Di Nufeng glanced over in the direction of Sword Sheath Peak. "No problem."

Before she even finished talking, she'd spread open her wings of fire. With a loud whoosh, she turned into a streak of fire beelining in the southwest direction, leaving behind a blast of scorching air.

"Senior Aunt Di Nufeng..." Jiang Yuebai blinked in surprise as she looked at the ball of fire in the distance. "She works really hard."

"Haha." Chu Liang forced a smile. "She has always done her best to protect Mount Shu."

He felt a bit embarrassed saying that.

It was true that when Mount Shu was in danger, Di Nufeng would rush in immediately to neutralize the threat. However, when there weren't any threats, she might just be the greatest threat to Mount Shu...

Chuh Liang shifted his gaze to Heaven-Reaching Peak and said, "Let's hurry over there."

Looking at Chu Liang, Jiang Yuebai asked, "Are you sure you can keep fighting?"

Chu Liang had used the Azure Ophidian Sword once earlier. Logically, that alone should have drained his Sea of Qi. Yet, he still managed to use the dual sword combination as well after that, which was astonishing. If he could immediately return to Heaven-Reaching Peak to fight even after all that, it meant… he had incredibly high endurance.

Chu Liang replied, "I'll be fine. I just need a moment to catch my breath."

He had two ultimate-tier Golden Cores and the Dragon-Blood Crystals, so he could almost always keep his body in peak condition. His Sea of Qi had been drained yet again earlier, but a moment was all he needed to recover from that.

"Alright."

Jiang Yuebai didn't dwell on the matter. Since Chu Liang had said that he could do it, Jiang Yuebai naturally believed that he could. She knew Chu Liang wouldn't recklessly pretend to be strong.

The pair took off for Heaven-Reaching Peak alongside each other.

However, just as they began flying, a loud boom rang out from Heaven-Reaching Peak. Chu Liang and Jiang Yuebai were far quite far away, yet they were still able to feel the explosive shockwaves surging outward from Heaven-Reaching Peak.

At the next moment, they fell into a daze, feeling like sky and the earth were moving around them. The world seemed to have been turned upside down in that instant!

"This..."

Chu Liang gazed at Heaven-Reaching Peak with his eyes wide open in shock!

Is this something that a human is capable of?

Ever since that ferocious face emerged from the clouds, a shadow seemed to be hanging over Mount Shu. Dark clouds were gradually descending onto the peak, accompanied by immense pressure.

As thunder rumbled incessantly in the background, the neck, chest, and arms of the True Form of Ksitigarbha gradually emerged from the clouds. There were numerous thick, black chains, which were covered in talismanic inscriptions, wrapped around the True Form of Ksitigarbha, trying to drag it back into the clouds!

Nonetheless, even a thousand chains could not restrict its movements! As the True Form of Ksitigarbha pressed downward, all of Mount Shu's thirty-six peaks shook. The bases of the mountains quaked, and the mountain peaks crumbled...

If the True Form of Ksitigarbha were to make a full descent, then the thirty-six peaks of Mount Shu would inevitably be destroyed and its inhabitants killed! That seemingly unending mountain range would be razed to the ground!

Boom, boom, boom.

Of course, Venerable Wen Yuan could not let that happen.

He swung out with his wide sleeves. It was just a simple movement, but he collected all the clouds in the sky with that one movement!

The sky instantly became clear. There wasn't a cloud in sight for ten thousand li!

The True Form of Ksitigarbha was revealed in its entirety. It was ginormous and seemed to cover the whole sky! Its height was almost the same as the length of Mount Shu!

Fortunately, the chains were still trying to pull the True Form of Ksitigarbha away, so it couldn't flatten Mount Shu yet. The chains themselves ran back to the black voids in the sky.

The sight of this frightening enchanted tool left everyone on the ground extremely shocked!

They now knew why a legendary artifact ranked top ten in the world was so terrifying. Even just the slightest bit of the suppressive force that it emitted could cause an ordinary person's internal organs to rupture!

Venerable Wen Yuan stood in front of it, looking as small as a speck of dust in comparison. Yet, he fearlessly raised his hand, and he let out all the clouds he had just collected!

However, they weren't simply released. They transformed into an enormous sword!

This sword was a hundred times larger than the sword Daoist Yan produced when she used the immortal art Heaven-Raising Sword. This enormous cloud sword was the right size to cut down the gigantic True Form of Ksitigarbha!

Nevertheless, this cloud sword was different from the Heaven-Raising Sword. Instead of tangible sword qi, this cloud sword mostly contained Dao essence.

In the world of immortality cultivators, it was said that those who at a cultivation level below the seventh realm fought using their divine abilities and skills. Whereas, those at or above the seventh realm fought using the Great Dao.

There was a huge difference between the seventh and eighth realms. Cultivators at the seventh realm cultivated one Great Dao. Cultivators at the eighth realm, who had attained the Heavenly Origin, had already begun combining various Great Daos to create their own unique world.

Every time eighth-realm cultivators even bumped into each other, it was like two worlds colliding.

Rumble—

On this day, if anyone in the southwestern lands looked up, they would witness a grand fight that was like a battle between two deities.

And so, the battle between the enormous sword and the gigantic statue began.

When the cloud sword approached, the True Form of Ksitigarbha, which had always seemed like an inanimate object, suddenly moved! It wasn't simply pressing downward like before; instead, it raised its hands!

As it moved, extremely loud thunderclaps rang out in the sky, and the numerous chains wrapped around the True Form of Ksitigarbha clanged deafeningly! Shockwaves surged outward, and the earth shook incessantly!

This was the might of a legendary artifact!

Wham.

The True Form of Ksitigarbha clamped Venerable Wen Yuan's cloud sword between its hands. They were in a deadlock for an instant. Then the True Form of Ksitigarbha shattered the cloud sword with a loud smack.

Nonetheless, the scattered clouds did not disperse. Instead, they reassembled above the True Form of Ksitigarbha and swiftly transformed into a mountain range.

That mountain range... looked exactly the same as Mount Shu below.

In the instant that the cloud mountain range was formed, Venerable Wen Yuan turned his hand over, and the world turned upside down!

This was the moment Chu Liang and Jiang Yuebai were witnessing. They were experiencing the shocking power of an eighth-realm cultivator for the first time!

With his power alone, Venerable Wen Yuan turned the world upside down!

Everyone on Mount Shu felt dazed for a moment, but they had not been moved at all.

Yet, the sky had become the ground, and the ground had become the sky.

He inverted the mortal world?!

Chu Liang quickly realized that the mortal world couldn't have actually been inverted...

It's likely some great divine ability or skill that used Mount Shu as a base. Perhaps an illusory technique? It just feels like the world really was inverted because Venerable Wen Yuan's extremely powerful.

The only thing that wasn't inverted was the True Form of Ksitigarbha.

It was initially directing its pressure down at the real Mount Shu, but after the inversion, its pressure was directed at the cloud version of Mount Shu. Thus, the pressure directed at the real Mount Shu instantly disappeared, and the ground stopped shaking, returning to a calm state.

Venerable Wen Yuan had probably been worried that the battle would destroy Mount Shu, so he used this method to divert the True Form of Ksitigarbha's pressure from it.

After the True Form of Ksitigarbha realized it had somehow been flipped upside down, it exerted its force upward instead… It wanted to stand up!

Every movement it made caused the world to shake. The countless chains were still trying desperately to pull the True Form of Ksitigarbha back, making it incredibly difficult for the True Form of Ksitigarbha to stand up. Yet, after struggling for a moment, the True Form of Ksitigarbha stood up in the clouds!

The pressure on the world had only just been lifted, and now it was back again!

However, Venerable Wen Yuan wasn't simply standing by and watching that unfold.

He pointed at Solitude Peak and said, "True Dragon, assist me."

When the True Dragon first arrived at Mount Shu, it had been kept at Solitude Peak to prevent it from causing problems on Mount Shu. Now, with Mount Shu in peril, the True Dragon was no longer willing to sit idly by. It had been restlessly fighting to break free from its restraints, eager to join the battle.

Once Venerable Wen Yuan pointed at Solitude Peak, all of the True Dragon's restraints were removed.

"Raaaar!"

With a single stride, Venerable Wen Yuan stepped onto the White Dragon's head, and the White Dragon rushed upward at full speed!

Against the backdrop of a clear blue sky, a man rode a dragon and soared toward the heavens!

Venerable Wen Yuan was riding the skies on the White Dragon!
