In the quiet mountain forest, Mo Baiye looked at the dicinal herbs before him, his eyes shining with excitent.
Indeed, it was the Tri-Colored Land of the Heaven Mandate Domain, where artifacts were truly abundant. Just now, he had been chasing Zhang Xuan but hadn’t caught him, and had stumbled upon this place by mistake, fortuitously finding the very herb he had been searching for.
It was a Cloud Leaf Tree, and the Cloud Leaf Fruit that grew on it was imnsely helpful for the recovery of severed limbs.
As long as he consud it, the arm that Zhang Xuan had chopped off could be restored.
Thinking of this, he suppressed his excitent, plucked a bright red fruit, and swallowed it.
Buzz!
...
Potent dicinal power surged within his body, causing a tingling sensation at the site of his severed limb. In no ti, the previously empty sleeve filled out, and an arm slowly grew back.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Mo Baiye’s eyes reddened with excitent.
Even though he had used dicinal aid to restore his arm, it had also drained a lot of his strength. However, with his arm back, his combat power would surely increase significantly. Even if he couldn’t return to his peak condition imdiately, the difference wouldn’t be too much.
He exhaled deeply, clenched his fist tightly, and was just about to stand up when he suddenly felt a sharp breeze whirling crazily from behind him.
The move was incredibly fast and carried a sneak attack. Before he could react, he felt a severe pain in his back, and his body flew forward as if weightless, his innate breathing chaotic, and blood spurted from his mouth.
Soone had ambushed him, nearly crippling all his cultivation.
Fortunately, his abundant combat experience and swift reaction allowed him to dodge the critical hit. Otherwise, he might not have died, but it would have been close.
Turning quickly, a familiar face suddenly appeared in his line of sight, and he clenched his teeth in anger, “Mu Hongtao, have you lost your mind?”
Mo Baiye couldn’t help but roar.
It was no other than the Bamboo Forest Sect leader he had brought along, Mu Hongtao!
For so reason, the guy seed like a raging bull, snorting heavily. Not only had his sneak attack hit Mo Baiye, but he didn’t seem satisfied and was charging at him again.
"You…”
Seeing his ferocity with no intention to stop, Mo Baiye didn’t dare to take the hit head-on and quickly backed away.
But as fast as he retreated, the opponent’s charge was even faster. Soon he was upon him again, his palm swift as the wind, his force powerful as a dragon. ŖâΝο𝔟ÈṢ
"Sect Master Mu, are you mistaken about sothing? I really am Mo Baiye, not disguised as Zhang Xuan…”
Seeing the opponent’s deanor, Mo Baiye thought of sothing and quickly explained, while the wrist of his hand turned over, a Mo Blade appearing in his palm.
At his level of strength, one couldn’t just have a single weapon. Although this Mo Blade was far inferior to the one that was taken, it would still suffice.
Seeing him draw a weapon, Mu Hongtao’s conviction was reaffird, and the strength in his palms continued to increase, the force of his blows becoming more substantial.
One after another, vortexes of energy slashed rapidly at Mo Baiye, who parried with his saber. Just as he managed to fend off this terrifying force, he felt his back go numb once more, his pores involuntarily opening.
Realizing that soone was hitting him from behind again, it was too late for Mo Baiye to dodge. The next mont, excruciating pain tore through him, and he saw his newly regrown arm chopped off again.
Turning around in a hurry, he saw Ling Yusheng standing not far away, looking at him with an equally angry expression.
Mo Baiye couldn’t withhold his indignation any longer, his voice breaking as if he wanted to cry, “What are you all doing?”
Why don’t you go after soone else? Why are you all relentlessly pursuing alone? What exactly do you want to do? I’m the one who brought you here, your benefactor!
"Stop pretending here! The real Mo Baiye only has one arm, you’re a fake…” Ling Yusheng scolded.
"I just grew it back…”
Mo Baiye’s vision went dark.
After all this ti, you’re making your judgnt based on that?
aning I deserved to grow it?
"Cut the crap, do you really think we’d believe your nonsense? Prepare to die!” Ling Yusheng advanced once more.
"Right, don’t listen to his babbling, this guy is definitely a fake, I’ve been fooled by him several tis already!”
Mu Hongtao also snorted coldly.
Knowing that he stood no chance against the two of them working together, and that things might turn out really bad for him, Mo Baiye kept retreating while suppressing the pain in his arm, grinding his teeth, “What would it take for you to believe?”
"You’d have to die for us to believe that!”
Mu Hongtao’s massive strength did not cease, striking down one after another.
The combined power of two Galaxy 6-dan Peak combat masters, along with the fact that Mo Baiye had been ambushed and injured, was too much for him to withstand. Soon he was spitting blood, on the verge of death at any mont.
Just then, a sharp glint of the saber blocked the two attackers. The most powerful “Brother Du” appeared in front of them.
"What are you doing?”
"Brother Du” furrowed his brows.
He didn’t understand what was happening; they were supposed to be allies, yet they were attacking to kill.
"Brother Du, this Mo Baiye is an imposter, a disguise worn by Zhang Xuan…” Mu Hongtao eagerly explained.
"Brother Du… I am the real Mo Baiye!” Mo Baiye bit back through gritted teeth.
"It’s simple to tell them apart!”
"Brother Du” quickly grasped the situation, frowned thoughtfully for a mont, and then said, “Mo Baiye, Brother Mo’s Mo Dao Destiny, has joined the Ten Thousand Sabers Alliance and been accepted by the alliance head. If you channel the Mo Dao Destiny, it will naturally make the Sword Alliance Order emit light. Even if both utilize the Mo Blade Technique, the one with the light is the real one, the one without it is obviously the fake!”
Having said this, “Brother Du” flipped his wrist, and a token shaped like a long saber appeared in his palm.
"That’s right, as long as the Sword Alliance Order flashes, it is certainly real!” Mu Hongtao nodded in agreent.
The saber is a powerful fragnt of the heavens, possessing countless branches. These branches, once fully comprehended on their own, yearn to grow stronger and go further, which can only be achieved through harmony with other saber arts by joining the alliance.
It’s like tributaries converging into the Yangtze River!
Once their destinies have interacted and they thoroughly submit and pledge allegiance, the Sword Alliance Order will shine, acknowledging it as a part of itself.
To put it more simply: tributaries may not have fish, but once they rge with the Yangtze, fish will swim into them.
That Zhang Xuan, even if he could perform Mo Dao, would not be able to light up the Sword Alliance Order without joining the Ten Thousand Sabers Alliance.
Indeed, this was the best way to discern the truth.
Ling Yusheng also nodded in agreent.
Seeing that “Brother Du” had co up with such a good thod, Mo Baiye breathed a sigh of relief and, despite the pain in his body, flicked his wrist, releasing his Mo Dao Destiny. The next mont, the saber-shaped token not far away imdiately burst into a dazzling light.
"The Sword Alliance Order is lit… His practice of Mo Dao Destiny has been acknowledged by the Ten Thousand Sabers Alliance, which ans… he is genuine!”
Mu Hongtao and Ling Yusheng exchanged looks, their mouths twitching.
Was he really the genuine one?
It seed they had just… chopped off this man’s arm…
