Chapter 922: Chapter 98 Self-Doubt
Yan Yu had already made up his mind.
Next, he would focus solely on breaking through to the Golden Core Realm!
Of course, there really wasn’t much to do, just going to the Mysterious Realm every afternoon to perform Breathing and Energy Refining exercises with the girls and protect them. Yan Yu was quite accustod to such selfless acts and putting others before himself.
Unfortunately, it seed the girls didn’t appreciate it. Even after several days, they still wouldn’t even say “thank you.”
Doing good deeds to this extent, and still feeling lost.
Yan Yu couldn’t help but miss the True Obscurity Sun Sword Intent again. It had to be admitted that, despite being extrely cheeky when first encountered, it later proved to be hardworking and always ready to serve, fighting whenever needed without complaining… Wasn’t this in the team?
Now without the True Obscurity Sun Sword Intent, he felt like he was the bottom rung of the labor exploitation chain!
The more Yan Yu thought about it, the more annoyed he got, so he decided to go chat with Anna. Among everyone, she was the only one who didn’t need his help with Dual Cultivation to advance.
When he pushed the door open and entered Anna’s room, he saw her packing her luggage, with a ss of stuff strewn all over the bed.
“What’s up?” Yan Yu asked puzzledly, “Are you leaving?”
“Dear, I need to go back to the Northern Border for a while.” Anna ca over to give him a long kiss, then helplessly said, “Soone in the Elders’ Council wants to nurture an Orochi, and I need to stop them.”
“Seeing the disaster in the Southern Border, how can there still be people who want to court death?” Yan Yu expressed extre confusion.
“People only saw that the Southern Border managed to raise their ‘Orochi,’ forcing Lu Country to dispatch a Sword Holder to deal with it.” Anna shrugged helplessly and said, “With the huge explosion you set off in the Southern Border, even the mushroom cloud was caught by weather satellites, people only think that the Orochi of the Southern Border must be terribly powerful, so a Sword Holder had to use such a devastating move.”
Yan Yu:……
Okay, there’s a reason why foreign countries have fewer people, and it seems they’ll continue to beco fewer.
According to the True Obscurity Sun Sword Intent, these monsters artificially cultivated through ultra-large-scale blood sacrifices are almost all of Golden Core level Demons, and reaching the Golden Core Realm grants so conceptual abilities, like Ba’s ability to endlessly produce clones, making it nearly impossible to contend with without a Golden Core level Transcendent or corresponding asures.
Thus, any forces planning to nurture an “Orochi” will essentially repeat the historical mistakes of the Yin Yang Bureau—discovering they can’t control the Orochi and then just letting it rampage.
What’s more troubleso is that Lu Country no longer has a Sword Holder.
So if any external forces have plans for an Orochi, there will be no one to clean up their ss when the ti cos. It’s one thing for the Demons to plague their own country, but it’s worriso if they start streaming towards the borders of Lu Country…
“We can’t let them court death.” Yan Yu asked, “Do you need to go with you?”
“No need.” Anna hugged him tightly, smiling, “I’ll handle it by returning. It’s just so people making trouble while I’m away. Don’t worry.”
Yan Yu quietly embraced her, feeling her chest seed to have gotten bigger. Odd, wasn’t she already grown-up?
Well, must be a Witch’s superpowers.
————————————
Lin Ning had also made a decision.
Just as Jing Zhongxian said, practicing cultivation in a naive and orderly manner, it was almost impossible for her to ever catch up with the captain.
With the captain’s personality, if you couldn’t fight alongside him, you’d inevitably be left behind, eventually becoming that poor fellow at a reunion decades later, whom the captain asks, “Who’s that?”
I must beco stronger!
“Let’s get sothing clear first, if you trick into going sowhere, I won’t go.” Lin Ning said to Jing Zhongxian, “And don’t make practice any bizarre Spells either.”
“Don’t worry, don’t worry.” Jing Zhongxian grinned, “I’m only teaching you swordsmanship. Could it be that practicing pure swordsmanship could lead to soone being Body Seized?”
“Hmph, who knows?” Lin Ning suddenly beca suspicious again, “Weird, isn’t your main body with the captain? Why can you still talk to ?”
“Your captain is right inside the base, and the distance between you is less than my voice transmission range. What’s so strange about that?” Jing Zhongxian retorted matter-of-factly, “On the other hand, you being so overly cautious might actually be harmful to your path in the Sword Dao.”
“What harm it brings, why do you get to decide?” Lin Ning instinctively started to talk tough.
“Then why don’t you go ask your dear captain?” Jing Zhongxian suggested.
Lin Ning didn’t respond but heard Jing Zhongxian continue:
“Your captain might be a formidable Sword Immortal, but certainly not a great teacher. He likes complex and intricate swordsmanship because his thought process is better suited to making flexible, imdiate responses in complex situations, but that’s exactly your weak point. Your strength lies in your quick reactions, so you should make more use of routine-based swordsmanship, relying on super fast-paced attacks to push opponents into matching your reaction speed.”
“Hmph.” Once she heard him belittle Yan Yu, Lin Ning imdiately beca unhappy again, “Now you know it all? The captain already knows where my strengths and weaknesses lie, but he said that a Sword Immortal shouldn’t have any weaknesses because one could be targeted otherwise.”
“That’s also true,” Jing Zhongxian chuckled, “Thinking long-term, you definitely need to work on all your weaknesses, but should you do it now or later? If you don’t demonstrate your strengths soon, once your captain optimizes you, you’ll just have to quietly work hard practicing swordsmanship.”
