Zhang Qianlin wasn't anxious. In any case, he could afford to waste time.
The most important question now was who had entered this place?
Back then, everyone had formed a temporary team to track the eight-gate cloud. They had followed it for quite a distance, but in the evening, they had completely lost track of it.
There was no other choice. Everyone could only act separately to increase the efficiency of the search.
"I remember that the people who walked in the same direction as me were Gu Xiuxun, Zhou Shanyi, Duan Meng, and Yi Jiamin. Out of the four of them, at least two would have entered, right?"
The reason why Zhang Qianlin was able to find this place, other than his luck being pretty good, was also because of an ancient spirit rune. This was something he had discovered and learned from an ancient manual.
This spirit rune, after the user made a wish that they urgently wanted and tore it apart to activate it, there would be a 10% chance of getting the correct answer.
Zhang Qianlin asked where he could find the eight-gate cloud. After that, he followed the path indicated by the ancient spirit rune and found a karst cave. After walking down, he arrived here.
Of course, some sections of the karst cave were extremely difficult to walk. Some places were even blasted open by Zhang Qianlin's violence.
If it wasn't for the fact that the temptation of the eight-gate cloud was too great and Zhang Qianlin didn't have any good ideas, he would really give up halfway.
But very soon, he felt the spirit qi gradually becoming denser. This caused his spirits to rise. He had thought that he had discovered a spirit stone vein, but he didn't expect to find an altar instead.
However, this altar was clearly even larger than a spirit stone vein.
"Could it be that the spirit crystals I saw on the way here were all formed because of you?"
Zhang Qianlin suddenly thought of something.
"For an ant, your cognitive ability isn't bad."
That voice replied.
"Who are you?"
Zhang Qianlin said respectfully, "Please allow me to pay my respects to your great name!"
"The ancient elemental king that controls wind and freedom. Places where the wind blows are my territory. Living beings who hear the howling of the wind are all my people!"
When the Wind King said this, its voice was majestic and heavy, containing a pressure that caused one's heart to palpitate.
A sense of reverence rose in Zhang Qianlin's heart.
The sealed Ancient King was simply too powerful. Moreover, after hundreds of thousands of years, the sealing formation was slightly damaged. Therefore, the Spiritual Qi in the Ancient King's body leaked out and radiated across the land. Over time, it formed the Spiritwind Canyon.
Why would there be spirit-winds in the Spiritwind Canyon?
They were all catalyzed after the energy in the Wind King's body leaked out. The strange and ever-changing spirit qi tides also originated from it.
"I can help you break the seal, but what benefits can you give me?"
Zhang Qianlin decided to test the waters.
"What benefits? What an ignorant ant. Just a breath of spiritual energy from me can help an ant like you advance, and you actually want to ask me what benefits I can give you? "
The Wind King mocked.
"Hehe!"
Zhang Qianlin sneered. You want to use this little thing to dismiss me? Do you think I'm stupid?
"I can grant you a pair of Wind Wings. After you spread them, your speed will be able to catch up to the clouds in the sky and catch up to the torrential waterfall!"
The tone of the Wind King was filled with the feeling of bestowing.
"Can you fly?"
Zhang Qianlin felt a little agitated.
"Even an ant dares to dream of flying?"
The Wind King sneered.
"Are there any other things?"
Zhang Qianlin licked his lips.
"Ant, retract your greed. There isn't only one human who appeared in my Wind King Hall."
The Wind King mocked, "I have many choices!"
"Who else is there?"
Zhang Qianlin asked.
"Why don't you guess?"
The Wind King laughed uproariously. "Even if I'm sealed and have no choice but to cooperate with an ant, I'll still choose a powerful ant. So, let's fight. Only the victor has the qualifications to speak to me."
Hearing this, Zhang Qianlin's ears twitched. He abruptly turned his head and looked toward the hall's entrance. "Who is it? Scram out! "
Sun Mo walked in.
Their gazes met, and killing intent radiated in all directions.
"Sun Mo?"
Zhang Qianlin was astonished. He didn't expect to encounter Sun Mo here.
"Teacher Zhang!"
Sun Mo greeted.
"Stop the fake courtesy."
Zhang Qianlin pulled out his longsword. If he could obtain such a place, it would allow a clan to rise up and prosper for 1,000 years. Therefore, Zhang Qianlin had to monopolize it no matter what.
"Teacher!"
Ying Baiwu walked in and stood next to Sun Mo, wanting to fight alongside him.
"There are two more. Stop hiding. Do you really treat me as a small fry?"
Zhang Qianlin mocked.
"Damn it, we've been seen through."
Li Ziqi felt a little unhappy. Her original intention was to let Ying Baiwu come out to confuse Zhang Qianlin while she and Lu Zhiruo hid and waited for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack. It was a pity that their tactic was discovered.
"You guys leave this place and wait in the great hall from before!"
Sun Mo commanded. This was a life-and-death battle, and if there were no accidents, the enemy should be the strongest one they had encountered after coming to Jinling.
Zhang Qianlin hesitated. By right, in order to keep this a secret, he should kill everyone. However, he was a great teacher after all, and he couldn't bear to kill his students.
However, after that, Zhang Qianlin thought of a solution.
"If you guys are willing to come under my tutelage and swear not to tell anyone about what happened here, I can spare you guys from death."
This method wasn't bad. Li Ziqi's status was very respectable. Even if her athletic ability was bad, it didn't matter. In any case, it was fine as long as her background was strong enough.
As for Ying Baiwu, she was a genius that even Fang Wuji regarded highly. Under his guidance, she would definitely soar to the sky and her name would resound throughout the Nine Provinces.
As for Lu Zhiruo, Zhang Qianlin glanced over and a look of disdain appeared on his face. Other than having big breasts, she had no good points at all!
(Forget it, I'll just take it as a buy-two-get-one-free gift.)
"You can talk in your sleep after you wake up!"
Li Ziqi's rebuttal was very elegant, but the iron-headed girl wasn't like this.
"Pui! In my entire life, I only have one teacher, Teacher! "
Ying Baiwu spat out a mouthful of saliva. She held onto White Bird and prepared to fight. It was true that she couldn't kill Zhang Qianlin, but if she could injure him, she would be able to increase the chances of her teacher winning. This was enough.
"Teacher won't lose!"
Lu Zhiruo was very angry. Where did this fellow's confidence come from?
"Before I kill Sun Mo, you guys have roughly five minutes to consider!"
Zhang Qianlin stood on the altar and looked down at Sun Mo. At the same time, a smile appeared on his face as he exerted force with his legs.
Swoosh!
Zhang Qianlin was like an arrow that had left the bow, shooting toward Sun Mo. In the blink of an eye, he appeared before Sun Mo.
A spot of cold light suddenly appeared, piercing toward Sun Mo's forehead.
Actually, the most effective battle tactic was to forcefully attack Li Ziqi and force Sun Mo to save her. However, Zhang Qianlin felt that he was strong and disdained to use such methods.
(If this daddy wants to win, I'll defeat you fair and square.)
Swoosh!
Sun Mo's figure flashed. At the same time he dodged the sword light, he appeared beside Zhang Qianlin and slashed out with his wooden blade.
Colors of Autumn!
"What?"
Zhang Qianlin was shocked. Sun Mo's speed was actually so fast? It was so fast that even he couldn't see it clearly. He instinctively wanted to dodge, but when that blade slashed over, he had a feeling that there was no way for him to evade it.
At this moment, Zhang Qianlin felt as if he was standing on a grassland that was about to turn yellow. His vision was filled with the strong feeling of autumn, and it was pressing down on him in an overwhelming manner.
"What cultivation art is this?"
Zhang Qianlin had no solution and could only receive it head-on.
Dang!
The blade and sword collided, and the immense rebounding force caused Zhang Qianlin's wrist to feel a little numb. He had planned to take this opportunity to counterattack, but Sun Mo's next blade had already slashed over.
Golden Jade Hibiscus!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
A golden hibiscus blossomed in his vision. Those petals were formed from blade shadows. It was as if they wanted to grind Zhang Qianlin into minced meat.
Zhang Qianlin retreated. After that, he saw the tip of the blade raining down like a torrential downpour, engulfing him.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Zhang Qianlin did his best to block. After that, a blade suddenly brushed past the sword's blade and pierced toward his throat.
"This is bad!"
Zhang Qianlin's brute force erupted. He used his sword to flip the wooden blade and tilted his head. But at this moment, the wooden blade was like a venomous snake hunting its prey. It twisted strangely and chased after him, aiming for his forehead.
Pak!
Zhang Qianlin leaned back and felt an intense pain in his head. This caused him to feel a lingering fear. If it wasn't for him dodging fast enough, his head would have exploded.
"Teacher, you can do it!"
Lu Zhiruo cheered.
"This can't do. I have to retaliate or I'll lose!"
Zhang Qianlin didn't expect Sun Mo's combat strength to be so strong. He didn't dare to hold back and used his ultimate technique right from the start. His entire body twisted, narrowly dodging the wooden blade and getting close to Sun Mo.
Zhang Qianlin's judgment was very accurate. Sun Mo's cultivation art was extremely powerful and might even be at the saint-tier. Moreover, Sun Mo's body was also terrifyingly tough. If he fought head-on, he definitely wouldn't be able to win. In that case, he would have to fight head-on.
Speaking of which, Sun Mo could be considered to be benefiting by using a wooden blade. However, this wasn't the case at all.
"If Teacher used a wooden blade, he would have died long ago!"
Ying Baiwu's lips twitched.
"Even if he didn't use a wooden blade, he would die soon!"
Li Ziqi smiled.
Zhang Qianlin got close to Sun Mo and pulled out the dagger at his waist, wanting to stab it toward Sun Mo's chest. However, Sun Mo's left fist smashed over first.
Bang!
The left side of Zhang Qianlin's face took a solid punch, and he was almost in a daze from the impact.
Pak!
Sun Mo grabbed Zhang Qianlin's left hand. After that, he tapped the ground with the tip of his feet and leaped up. His knees kept smashing into Zhang Qianlin's body.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Zhang Qianlin flew higher and higher, instantly passing Sun Mo's head. However, before he landed on the ground, Sun Mo suddenly leaped up vertically. After that, he lifted his right leg up high and did a tomahawk chop, smashing into Zhang Qianlin's head.
Bang!
Zhang Qianlin's head ruthlessly smashed into the ground. Fresh blood spurted out from his mouth and nose.
"Ah?"
The three girls were stunned. What move was this? They had never seen it before! However, it was filled with a violent sense of beauty.
Zhang Qianlin was also very angry. Since young, he had received the most orthodox martial arts guidance. He had never seen an opponent like Sun Mo who didn't move according to common sense. His fists, legs, elbows, and knees would all be used.
Zhang Qianlin had been guarding against Sun Mo's wooden blade and one hand. Who knew that Sun Mo would attack with his knee instead?
The main point was that Sun Mo's explosive force was extremely strong. Zhang Qianlin saw it, but he didn't have time to react and was hit.
How the hell was he supposed to defend against this?
