(Today is just a 4k chapter, mainly to ponder the plot below, still a bit stuck, sorry)
ng Yu was not alone; Ji Qiaoer and Shui Qinger followed by his side.
Both were at the High Stage of Foundation Establishnt. Ji Qiaoer was skilled in various spells, a versatile expert capable of handling a variety of crises, while Shui Qinger, as a disciple of Bai Qianqian, had cultivated the Water Technique to an exquisite level, making her defense extrely formidable. During this period, the Golden Core experts of the Immortal Sect had taken turns training them intensely, greatly improving their combat abilities, and they were willing to die for ng Yu.
As for ng Yu himself, his cultivation was invincible among his peers, constantly capable of achieving Unity of Heaven and Man. His figure retreated, like a breeze over a lake, a white egret sweeping across the sky, an antelope hanging on a cliff yet leaving no trace. Even Golden Core experts witnessing this move couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
At his side, the two Foundation Builders also guarded ng Yu, one in front and one behind.
At that mont, the Pill Furnace suddenly burst a spark.
A Crystal Stone of the Fire Elent had exploded, likely due to so impurity, but it rely exploded. Danyangzi was startled and quickly apologized to ng Yu.
ng Yu just smiled and did not bla Danyangzi.
This was truly an accident. ng Yu's whereabouts were confidential, and with various protections from the Mountain Protection Array and the loyalty proven by those retained within the sect, the incident had passed.
But ng Yu suddenly felt a bit disinterested.
That retreat had made him feel a slight anomaly.
It was like a butcher expertly finishing ninety-nine cattle, but encountering a slight obstruction on the hundredth.
It wasn't the last stroke, but a type of stagnation you can't control!
Hesitation when shooting, delay when striking, leaning towards conservatism when decisions were needed, even starting to consider the enemy's perspective!
Others saw him peacefully staying at the Moon-Watching Sect for over a year, but including his ti at the Immortal Sect, he had safely spent three years!
The once-so-called greatest nace of the Immortal Sect, whose sword once traveled ten thousand miles, killing through countless traps, the notorious big bad everyone frowned upon, was now safely and quietly living a life of convenience for three years.
Golden Cores always surrounded him, Spirit Stones were never lacking, Sword Training was also safe without any worries, surrounded by the closest people, and when eting others, they had to go through a series of screenings, spending a month in the headquarters as peaceful as if ti had stopped.
This was good, his cultivation was rapidly increasing, now at the fifth layer of Foundation Establishnt, and if he continued just lying on the Crystal Stones, he could reach Golden Core and even Nascent Soul.
In forty or fifty years, achieving Golden Pill of Achievent, a future bright and clear.
The day he was hurt by Song Wuqiu, he had chosen the best and most appropriate path.
But he was very aware, that at that ti, he had a second path!
He could have declined the reinforcents from the Immortal Sect!
The Moon-Watching Sect had stockpiled five hundred Divine Thunders, and he could also have bought, stolen, smuggled more Divine Thunders from the Immortal Sect, then he wouldn't need to consider asking for the Immortal Sect's army's help, but could have taken down the Sky-splitting Sword Sect by himself.
Does the Golden Core outnumber ?
But at the Immortal Sect, I didn't just kill one Golden Core!
But I could have beco the Divine Thunder maniac, attacking anyone I disliked, taking Divine Thunders into battle, fleeing when surrounded and detonating the Divine Thunder the next second!
I could even directly target the Sky-splitting Sword Sect's headquarters, using five hundred Divine Thunders to bomb you!
Set them, trigger the explosion, and then do it over and over again, continually bombing!
Sword traveling a hundred thousand miles, a boisterous endless explosion!
It was a very rugged path, and ultimately ng Yu abandoned it.
He did not regret it, and this choice was the correct one, who could have anticipated that the Sky-splitting Sword Sect actually had forty-nine Golden Core experts ready?
But today's situation, unconsciously, his sword had beco a bit blunt.
Not because of safety, but because he had put on shoes.
For example, after the New Moonwatching Sect was established, he beca a bit negligent.
The cultivator's enemy is always themselves.
...
The incident in the Alchemical Chamber, couldn't even be considered an accident, but ng Yu's vigilance impressed everyone, being able to foresee the danger in advance.
In the following days, ng Yu reviewed materials from the Western Wastes and even the Central Plains.
For instance, he saw the deadly infighting among the major Sects of the Central Plains, the horror of the Demon Gate, watched the rise and fall of various schools of thought, and saw many things.
There were vast seas, abysses, plains, countless forces, nurous geniuses competing for supremacy.
Of course, there were also nurous lowly people who survived quietly until the end of ti, silently, or literally beca dog at.
Then on the fifth day during a gathering, when everyone ca together to drink, ng Yu was still sowhat disinterested.
Suddenly, he rembered when he first killed his uncle, as well as his ti in prison and the years that followed, an unwelcoming mory yet one he treasured greatly. Those lawless days felt good to him.
Even if it was a battle to the death, he would have no regrets if he died.
"Ah Yu, what's wrong, are you feeling a bit unhappy?"
Hua Miaochai asked softly.
"Yes, I'm rembering a beautiful dream I once had when I first ca to the Moon-Watching Sect."
