Slightly distracted, Zong Shou noticed that he was in a totally different place.
Looking around carefully, only to see that he was in an endless wilderness.
There were large patches of golden wheat all around. Beside him was a huge river. It should be a long distance away from Gantian Mountain City. He couldn't even see the outline of the city.
Beside him was empty, that senior brother Wei was nowhere to be seen. He couldn't sense any aura at all. Who knows where he was at this moment.
"Teleporting a thousand miles? Saint realm expert, what a good move! "
Sōmorime's eyes constricted before he shook his head and laughed bitterly. He exclaimed to himself, who knows when he would be able to reach such a realm?
However, where exactly was this place?
Using the one origin sword in his soul to slightly sense. He only felt that the king path 7 gathered within had decreased by 30%, showing signs of exhaustion.
"Speaking of which, I should still be within Gantian Mountain, roughly 200 miles away from Gantian City!"
Looking out at the stars above, Zong Shou was startled in just half a breath, "Isn't this place where the ascended ancestor that I sensed before was hiding? So that was the case … "
Pretty much instantly, Zong Shou understood. He was probably used as bait by that Gantian path revered one.
He couldn't help but rub his temples, feeling a headache. He was really helpless …
He knew that at this moment, even if he wanted to return to Gantian Mountain City, he had no way to do so. Zong Shou decided to just walk along the shore, leisurely looking at the night scenery.
Although there was a huge enemy beside him, his expression was really relaxed. As expected, in just a moment, he felt a strong intent spread over.
That person obviously didn't expect that Zong Shou would appear here and was a little suspicious. Then, he stood at the side and carefully observed for a moment. He didn't hide anymore, pretty much silently appearing beside the shore. He was less than a hundred steps away from Zong Shou.
Judging from his voice, he should be in his thirties. However, his entire body was shrouded in black mist, making it impossible to see his appearance. He only revealed a pair of eyes, looking over coldly with a questioning intent, "You are Gantian Mountain City Lord Zong Shou? Why are you here in the middle of the night? "
Zong Shouxin was suddenly at a loss. This was really difficult to answer. At the same time, he felt pity for the person in front of him.
"Would you believe me if I told you that I was casually tossed here by someone to wander around as bait to lure someone out?"
The black mist figure let out a cold laugh, its eyes filled with cold mockery. Zong Shou knew that the other party was doubtful. He was originally unwilling to waste his breath on this person, but for some unknown reason, Wei Xu hadn't made an appearance until now. Left with no choice, he could only think of ways to say more to stall for time.
Could it be that he had been betrayed by this revered Cang Shengdao? Borrow someone else's blade to destroy him? Speaking of which, he had only kowtowed once, and could not be considered to have truly entered the sect.
Following which, he felt that it wasn't right. With such a method, why would they need to go through so much trouble to deal with him?
Sighing slightly, Zong Shou could only press down on the nine qilin sword, turning around and saying, "Coming here in the middle of the night is naturally to kill someone! Who are you, and why are you spying on me here? "
The dragon energy within the one origin sword instantly exploded out. An aura that was only weaker than this ascended ancestor was formed. A sword aura that seemed to be able to contain mountains and rivers suddenly gathered around Zong Shou's body.
The surrounding hundred meters of land suddenly caved in.
A sharp light suddenly flashed in the eyes of the black fog figure. The fog that shrouded his body also started to boil.
"King path secret technique! Mountain river sword intent! Very good, as expected from the son of Zong Weiran! No wonder you dare to come here alone. Hehe, the rumors within Gantian Mountain City were just a cover. I knew that how could the person who wiped out all the powers of Gantian Mountain be trash? It seems like my 2 junior brothers and old Mi died in your hands? "
"That's right!"
Zong Shou's lips curled up, continuing to think of a way to delay time, "Speaking of which, you are from Demon Mountain Sect? I heard that roughly 20 years ago, your sect was wiped out by the 7 large sects of the central continent. Till date, Tailing Sect is still searching for your sect and is looking for you. In terms of courage, you should be the ones. You just rose up from the ashes and actually dared to run out. "
A fierce glow flashed in the eyes of the black mist figure. He wanted to attack, but he still hesitated.
Looking around, his spiritual sense was like a wave sweeping all around. Until he confirmed that within a hundred miles, even a grade 9 spiritual grandmaster and true image realm expert couldn't escape his detection. Only then did he laugh coldly, "So what if I am? Do you think that you can leave this place alive? "
He only took one step forward. A tyrannical and unpredictable aura with some treacherous and uncertain aura suddenly surged.
Zong Shou was able to accept the mountains and rivers, but this person was able to roam freely within the mountains and rivers.
He was able to strip away the aura and pressure that Zong Shou gathered bit by bit, even using it for his own use.
When he took a second step, even the king energy within Zong Shou's one origin sword was suppressed until it was shrunk into a ball.
The black mist figure had been paying close attention to Zong Shou. Seeing that there wasn't any fear or panic in his eyes, he was deep in thought. He couldn't help but feel slightly disappointed and also didn't understand. Was there really an expert beside him? His voice was still solemn and serious, filled with mockery, "What a waste! You are so young and have great talent. Unfortunately, you are too arrogant. Do you really think that just because you grasped a bit of the mountain river sword intent and the strength of a country, you can go up against ascended experts? You really don't know the difference between heaven and earth … "
Zong Shou suddenly came back to his senses from his deep thought, "This should be the swift sword intent, but it is slightly different. No! It should be called the demon sunflower sword intent. Are you going to die without any descendants? "
The face of the black mist figure instantly twisted, but his heart didn't waver. He still slowly walked forwards like he was casually taking a stroll as he slowly got closer. He scoffed coldly, "You only care about your mouth. Originally, I wanted to wait for master to capture that Xuan Mountain City father and daughter before I attacked you. However, since you ran out yourself, it saved my sect a lot of effort … "
Before his words landed, Zong Shou's eyes instantly constricted, his mind slightly distracted. He thought that this Demon Mountain Sect would take revenge on him and also thought that this Demon Mountain Sect would definitely stop at nothing.
However, he didn't expect that they didn't find him but went to find Yiren and Xuanyuan Tong, who on the surface seemed to be the strongest.
He remembered that 2 days ago, Ruoshui had reported to him that Xuanyuan Tong had already entered the ascended ancestor realm. Borrowing the strength of a city, he should be fine for now.
However, in his chest, there was still rage, vengeful energy surging. In the last life, Zong Shou lived alone, alone. This was why he did whatever he wanted without any worry. He also didn't care about his own life and death.
Only now did he feel that he was different from before. It was because he already had someone he cared about in this matter.
Thinking about that, Zong Shou's mind was filled with killing intent. The black hair at the back of his head floated up as he forcefully broke free from his hair crown. The end was slowly turning ashen white.
Little bits of death energy started to gather. If Wei Xu didn't attack, then in this battle today, only the last few moves of the Styx River Death Sword, the self-harming technique, could fight for victory with this ascended expert!
That black mist person was delighted, his expression didn't change as he was already dozens of feet away from Zong Shou. As expected, this Zong Shou was shaken by his words.
So what if there was an ambush in this place today? Dozens of feet away, he didn't need a breath to take down this kid. The demon sunflower sword was so quick that even a spiritual grandmaster couldn't react to it!
A hard to see black sword shadow silently pierced out from the black mist. It was extremely swift, just a flash and it was in front of Zong Shou.
However, before it could stab into Zong Shou's body, he heard a low "bo" sound. The black mist person only felt that the sword in his hand had stabbed into an iron wall.
If that was the case, then he didn't need to care. It was just a defensive spell, he didn't care about it and it was expected. No matter what it was, he was confident that he could break it with one sword!
In the next instance, he felt a giant strength no weaker than his charge charge back at him. It caused that sharp black sword to instantly bend. Then, he was forcefully rebounded away without any strength to resist.
Looking forward, he saw that Zong Shou's expression was still dark and cold. Behind him stood a scholarly dressed teen who was smiling gently and elegantly, "You finally came, it really wasn't easy."
He looked at Zong Shou, his tone filled with praise, "Your acting is not bad! The righteousness of today's matter is on my side. Since this fellow has acted, even if those few old demons of the demon sect appear, they won't be able to protect this Demon Mountain Sect. However, it is best if you don't use this sword art that uses the death energy … "
He lightly patted the side of Zong Shou's shoulder and the death energy instantly dissipated. Zong Shou's gaze also regained its clarity.
The figure in the black fog staggered and retreated a hundred steps before coming to a stop. He was first at a loss. Then, he felt the scholarly dressed teen's gaze look over coldly.
"You dare to attack the direct disciple of my Cang Shengdao, how bold!"
The moment he said that, the entire night sky turned white. The moon was no longer there. In the sky, the bright moon was no longer there. Instead, a bright sun hung high in the sky, emitting a scorching light.
The black mist person took just one look and he was instantly astonished. Just now it was still the middle of the night, it couldn't have turned to noon in an instant.
He had only seen such methods in some books left from the cloud desolate era. Normally, people who could have such abilities would have already entered the celestial path and their realms would be high!
The person in front of him was actually above the celestial path!
"It is Heaven Changing Illusionary Earth!"
Almost without thinking, the black fog figure tried to escape. But then, he heard a chuckle and a boundless force suddenly enveloped him. It caused his body to stop on the spot. (To be continued.
