Chapter 756: Chapter 346: Sectarian Sches and Pure Lineage
A cultivator at the Divinity Transformation stage laughed and said, “The Master said it right, how would Zheng Fa dare to co here?”
Grandfather is here!
The carefree laughter of Shi Nandang and his six companions echoed throughout, the Earth Fire in the mountain’s belly flickered with the waves of heat, but Zheng Fa sneered inwardly.
Zheng Fa’s infiltration this ti was exceedingly stealthy. For one, his “Heavenly Spirit and Earthly Fiend Transformation” had sowhat matured, and secondly, the Heaven and Earth Divine Evil Formation still held a backdoor of his making.
His body transford into a gentle breeze, drifting in the air, appearing and disappearing before them, yet these seven remained utterly oblivious.
Though these seven were laughing heartily now, their lives were actually under his control.
Still, he did not co to kill but to retrieve the “Red Cloud Jade Book.”
The value of the Yang God Technique far exceeded Zheng Fa’s expectations. He was naturally tempted, pondering that in the Xuanwei Realm, there might only be the Five Sects with the Yang God Technique…excluding the heterodox Tianhe Sect.
On the lands of the Hundred Immortals Alliance, the complete Yang God Technique inheritance now resided at the summit of Divine Fire Mountain.
His secret ascent was precisely to find the opportunity to obtain the “Red Cloud Jade Book.”
Seeing the seven obliviously unaware of his presence, he simply dove into the volcano crater, flying towards the Immortal Trapping Sword.
The opening was filled with scorching heat, constantly pushing his form outward. Zheng Fa controlled his breath, diving down, parting the thick magma.
The jet-black blade of the Immortal Trapping Sword rolled up and down amidst the mountain flas.
Zheng Fa wished to advance further, yet the Immortal Trapping Sword appeared more sensitive than Shi Nandang and the others. It seed to sense Zheng Fa’s presence and abruptly pointed its blade at the cave’s entrance, stabbing directly at Zheng Fa.
“There’s an abnormal movent with the Immortal Trapping Sword!” Outside the mountain belly, Shi Nandang’s laughter abruptly ceased, and he shouted loudly, “Take action!”
The other six cultivators at the Divinity Transformation stage cast their spells alongside him. Seven stars in the night sky lit up, taking power from the starry river, and slamd it down upon the Immortal Trapping Sword fleeing towards the volcano’s mouth.
The volcano’s interior and exterior walls were densely adorned with Spirit Stones that all lit up, crisscrossing beams of light like a net, dragging the Immortal Trapping Sword into the Earth Fire.
It took a whole hour before the restless Immortal Trapping Sword was subdued by Shi Nandang and his six companions.
“Almost a disaster…” A Divinity Transformation cultivator wiped his forehead, with an expression of lingering fear. “If the Immortal Trapping Sword had escaped, we wouldn’t have been able to justify ourselves.”
No, you were saved by that thing.
For the “Red Cloud Jade Book,” Zheng Fa even considered turning the tables— the most direct approach being to leverage his control over the great array to capture Shi Nandang for interrogation.
But the risks were too high.
Shi Nandang, as the Haori Mountain overseer, likely had so life-preserving technique.
Haori Mountain probably wouldn’t underestimate Zheng Fa and might have so ans of probing his safety.
If Zheng Fa were captured, Haori Mountain might imdiately realize sothing was amiss with the Chongxuan Sect, and any “deal” between the two factions would naturally cease to exist.
Haori Mountain certainly had other ans to deal with the Hundred Immortals Alliance.
This was the first undesirable consequence.
The second issue was even more severe:
From what he had probed monts ago, the Heaven and Earth Divine Evil Formation couldn’t completely control the Immortal Trapping Sword, let alone refine it.
The thing was extrely restless now, and if it got out of control, it would be akin to leaving a volatile bomb within the Hundred Immortals Alliance’s territory.
Not to ntion, if Shi Nandang was fearless, the Jiushan Sect wouldn’t be able to extract the “Red Cloud Jade Book” from him.
After testing it just now, Zheng Fa was almost certain that the risk of violently flipping the table far outweighed the benefits.
Following the scare, Shi Nandang also looked sowhat displeased, as he coldly huffed at the six others:
“Investigate! This is the second issue with the Immortal Trapping Sword. If this treasure malfunctioned… it wouldn’t end well for ; you’ll have no burial place!”
At this mont, the other six cultivators at the Divinity Transformation stage couldn’t muster a smile, their faces turning pale or dark, looking extrely troubled, only daring to respond feebly.
…Is the disparity between the true inheritors and non-true inheritors at Haori Mountain really that vast?
Watching this scene, Zheng Fa was increasingly puzzled. A hierarchy between true and non-true inheritors was normal, of course.
Tongming Master and Cheng Kong were like this too.
However, Shi Nandang treating these six as re servants, commanding them about, while these six Divinity Transformation cultivators obediently complied, as if used to it.
That was going a bit too far.
He hadn’t noticed this phenonon before. Perhaps Shi Nandang had shown these six so courtesy before outsiders, but now that only seven Divinity Transformation cultivators were atop the mountain, he no longer concealed it.
“We understand.” A frail, elderly man among the six Divinity Transformation cultivators forced a smile, respectful in deanor, “Not to ntion this is a significant matter for the sect. Even the Immortal has said, if we kill Zheng Fa, we can join the Three Saints Sect and receive the Holy Technique inheritance. How dare we not be diligent?”
“This peculiar Immortal Trapping Sword is so violent and unruly that we truly don’t know why it acted up this ti.”
Hearing this, Shi Nandang exhaled gently, as if calming his inner fears and anger, then spoke: “As long as you understand. The Saint Ancestor has said that the gate to the True Inheritance Divinity Transformation Skill will be lowered in the future. But rits must be established, joining our clan is when the inheritance will be available!”
There was quite a bit of information in his words.
That Haori Mountain’s three Dao Fruit cultivators widely spread the True Inheritance Technique was sothing Zheng Fa knew—after all, the strength of a Dao Fruit cultivator partly cos from the number of cultivators practicing their techniques.
The Five Sects would certainly allow more to inherit.
But from Shi Nandang’s words, this inheritance wouldn’t have a low threshold.
What does joining the clan an?
This term—Saint Ancestor… sounds a bit too familiar.
Zheng Fa felt that his understanding of Haori Mountain still fell short.
However, one thing he could be certain of was that, on the summit of Divine Fire Mountain, likely only Shi Nandang had the complete “Red Cloud Jade Book” inheritance.
“Yes! Yes!” The frail old man smiled obsequiously, “The Immortal is rciful, and you, Master, are generous too. Even that minor Bixia Elder of the Chongxuan Sect, you’ve passed down the ‘Red Cloud Jade Book’… and what about Li Hao?”
