The corner of Jian Wushuang's mouth twitched. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by a gust of restless wind.
"Energy Qi?"
Both of them were on guard at the same time. Their sharp gazes looked at the swirling clouds on both sides of the path.
"Who are you that dares to disturb us?"
An ethereal yet extremely steady voice resounded. Then, the crisp cry of a crane could be heard from the clouds.
Then, the clouds broke open, and a red-crowned crane with a wingspan of five kilometers flew out. Moreover, a white-robed elder with long eyebrows and beard sat cross-legged on the back of the crane.
"Good fellow, what you say comes true," Nan Xuan said softly. He was already prepared for battle.
The white-robed elder leaped down and landed on the bluestone path. Meanwhile, the red-crowned crane with a wingspan of five kilometers transformed in the wind. When it landed, it turned into a boy.
One old and one young, one tall and one short, two Derived Immortals stood there, blocking the path forward.
However, this was only the beginning.
Another few figures broke through the clouds and landed on the path, blocking the path together.
There were a total of five figures, five Derived Immortals. With the white-robed elder as the center, they walked towards Jian Wushuang.
"Who are you that dares to disturb us?"
Nan Xuan was about to attack, but he was stopped by Jian Wushuang.
Then, he said, "We have no intention to disturb you. We came here only to see the Divine Craftsman Xu Tuo. Please enlighten us."
"Enlighten us? Then please leave. The Divine Craftsman Xu Tuo does not receive guests, "the white-robed elder said loudly. There was a hint of suppression in his voice.
Jian Wushuang did not take it to heart. He continued, "Please report that we are only here to enlighten us. Once we are done, we will leave immediately."
"Do you not understand what I'm saying? Do you really want me to chase you away?!" A square-eared, round-faced man said angrily.
"You're courting death!" Nan Xuan shouted coldly. He directly smashed his palm across the air.
In the next moment, the square-eared, round-faced man grunted without any warning. His huge body was directly sent flying.
Two streams of nosebleeds drew an arc in the air before landing on the white-robed elder's white robe.
Because all of this happened too quickly, by the time the remaining Derived Immortals reacted, that square eared and round faced man had already fainted on the ground.
Without bothering to wipe off the blood on his white robe, the long-bearded old man shouted at the top of his lungs, "Do it!"
"Remember to hold back. Just knock them all out. Otherwise, it'll be troublesome later on." Jian Wushuang quickly instructed, afraid that Nan Xuan would kill them.
"Don't worry, I will treat them well." Nan Xuan lowered his eyebrows and smiled. His figure instantly disappeared on the spot.
After that, the battle only lasted for ten breaths of time. After ten breaths of time, the wind stopped and the clouds disappeared.
Nan Xuan returned to Jian Wushuang's side and let out a sigh of relief. "How annoying."
Jian Wushuang shook his head helplessly. In front of him, the group of Derived Immortals, who had looked like sages earlier, were all tied together and unconscious.
The unconscious group of Derived Immortals simply did not expect that their opponent would be a Grand Derivation Immortal.
This was practically crushing. If Nan Xuan wanted to, he could completely crush them with a finger.
As the group of gatekeeper immortals were knocked unconscious, this vast path towards the cloud layer was finally completely opened.
Jian Wushuang sighed silently before continuing forward.
Even though there were hundreds and thousands of Derived Immortals in front of him, to the current him, it was only a matter of time before he killed them all.
He had once ascended to a higher level, how could he return to the starting point?
Moreover, this time, he had a genuine Grand Derivation Immortal accompanying him. He definitely would not lose.
Two of the three stages had passed. Only the last stage was left!
At the end of the vast path, there was an undulating mountain peak. Endless clouds were rolling and rising.
At the peak of this undulating mountain peak, there was a drawbridge that spanned thousands of miles suspended in the cloud layer. It was extremely dangerous!
"How pretentious. In order to meet her, he had to travel over mountains and rivers!"
Nan Xuan stood in front of the drawbridge and was rather emotional. "This situation and this scene, it really has the feeling of a man in the mortal world chasing after a woman."
Jian Wushuang smiled and said, "I have many emotions."
Nan Xuan also smiled. "Naturally many emotions. After all, I have also lived one life after another in the mortal world. Seeing them build tall buildings, seeing them collapse, naturally many emotions would arise."
"Their short life is not even comparable to the time of one of our breaths. Yet, they still diligently live on. It is truly worthy of praise."
Jian Wushuang quietly listened to his comprehension. His eyes also had some gentleness.
From a humble beginning, one could also see the Great Dao.
Just like this, a dao discussion unfolded on this cloud peak.
The clouds were ethereal, gathering and dispersing.
After an unknown period of time, when the drawbridge beneath their feet disappeared and was replaced by solid ground, Jian Wushuang realized that the last part of the path had actually been completed without any hiccups.
"Did we pass the third stage too?" He still felt a little incredulous.
At this moment, a clear voice sounded. "No, of course not. With me here, I am afraid it will be very difficult for you to pass!"
Along with this voice, the clouds quickly dissipated, and rows upon rows of pavilions and towers that towered above the clouds appeared. It was an extremely magnificent sight.
And opposite Jian Wushuang was a bare-chested young man with extremely muscular arms. He held a long sword in his hand and his expression was calm.
This was a Derived Immortal. He was cold and arrogant.
He looked at Jian Wushuang and said directly, "I want to fight you!"
Nan Xuan Yi smiled. "This kid is really taking things too hard."
Jian Wushuang did not care about this. He nodded and said, "Alright. But before that, I have to ask you first. Does Divine Craftsman Xu Tuo live here?"
"Let's talk after we fight!" The young man shouted and directly slashed down with his sword.
Nan Xuan retreated and made space for this battle.
Facing the long sword that was slashing down, Jian Wushuang did not release the invisible sword. Instead, he clasped his hands behind his back and faced it directly.
The sword was in the air, cutting through the clouds. He dodged it with a slight tilt of his body.
This young man was a Derived Immortal. His control of the long sword in his hand was extremely precise. He advanced step by step and closed in on Jian Wushuang!
Thousands of sword gleams burst forth from the sword. It was as if a great light that covered the sky was descending.
However, Jian Wushuang only waved his arm and crushed the sword gleams across the air.
Immediately after, his figure leaped and directly arrived in front of the young man. He stretched out his index and middle fingers and quietly clamped the sword.
Clank!
A crisp sound was heard. The snow-white long sword was broken into several pieces. Only the sword hilt was left.
Jian Wushuang's expression turned serious after breaking the long sword with one finger. He flicked out a ray of Derived Force and directly sent the young man flying.
The clouds were shattered. He rolled in the air pathetically and finally crashed in front of a pavilion.
"Huff … Huff."
He turned over and panted heavily. "I don't believe it. Again!"
