"Am I really going to be exposed?" Jianchen glanced at the oblivious Donglin Yan Xue before looking outside the cave. The light in his eyes flickered as he weighed the pros and cons.
However, a sliver of surprise flashed through his eyes soon after. Although he was still a million kilometers away from Aoyama, he was like a lantern in the night to Jianchen because Aoyama had failed to conceal his presence. Jianchen could clearly sense his location at all times.
However, at this moment, Aoyama had actually stopped a million kilometers away from Jianchen. He did not approach them.
"Aoyama clearly knows our exact location, but he hasn't come over. Instead, he's watching from afar. What is he doing?" Jianchen became doubtful about Aoyama's actions.
After a moment of hesitation, Jianchen looked at Donglin Yan Xue and said, "Rest here for a while. I'll go observe the surroundings." With that, Jianchen stood up and left the cave.
Donglin Yan Xue leaned against the cave wall powerlessly as she stared at Jianchen with mixed feelings.
After leaving the cave, Jianchen condensed a pair of Radiant Wings and arrived ten thousand kilometers away with his cultivation as a Radiant Saint Master. Only then did he erupt with his cultivation as a fighter and unleash his speed, directly flying towards Aoyama's location. He moved extremely quickly, crossing a thousand kilometers in a single instance.
A while later, Jianchen arrived before Aoyama. He stood a hundred meters away from him.
As for Qing Shan, he was sitting cross-legged on a rock. His body was as lofty as a mountain, giving off an indomitable feeling. Powerful auras revolved around him.
"You've come!" Aoyama looked at Jianchen calmly. At that moment, he seemed like a dormant volcano. He seemed as calm as water on the surface, but astonishing energy was hidden within.
Jianchen frowned slightly. Originally, he thought that an intense battle would continue between him and Aoyama. As a result, he had already mentally prepared himself for another battle with Aoyama.
However, when he saw Aoyama again, he actually did not sense any battle intent or killing intent from the Divine King.
For a moment, he actually became rather confused about Aoyama's intentions.
"You and the candidate, Donglin Yan Xue, have already vanished for eight months. I have a secret technique that can search for all the Radiant Saint Masters in the entire World of Moon and Star. During this period of time, I searched the entire World of Moon and Star more than once. Let alone Radiant Godkings, even many elders of the sacred hall were unable to avoid my search. However, you and Donglin Yan Xue really have vanished, as if you're no longer in the World of Moon and Star. Only recently did I find traces of you again, "Aoyama stared at Jianchen calmly as if he was studying him closely.
Jianchen stood a hundred meters away with his hands behind his back. His presence was sharp as if an invisible sword had condensed around him. He radiated with a cold sword Qi, "I never thought that you would actually have a secret technique that can search for all the Radiant Saint Masters in the entire World of Moon and Star. In other words, most of the Radiant Saint Masters who entered the World of Moon and Star have died under your pursuit?"
"Aside from Donglin Yan Xue, who was with you, the other four are all dead. I've killed forty-five of the forty-eight Divine King that entered the World of Moon and Star." Aoyama did not know the situation of the Radiant Saint Hall like the back of his hand, but he knew a lot of information. He stared at Jianchen deeply and continued, "Originally, all the candidates and Divine King who entered the World of Moon and Star could forget about leaving alive because I wanted the Radiant Saint Hall to not have a Chosen Saint this year. That would be an extremely awkward matter to them. It would make them lose a lot of face. However, your existence made me change my mind. It's not like I can't find the other three Radiant Godkings. Killing them would be as easy as flipping my hand. It's because of you that I gave up on killing them and spared their lives, allowing them to leave here alive. "
"Aoyama, we don't know each other, so why did you give up on killing others because of me?" Jianchen asked.
Aoyama smiled mysteriously, "It's very simple. If everyone who entered the World of Moon and Star died, only you and Donglin Yan Xue remained alive, it would be a mystery as to why the two of you managed to escape from me. The elders and vice-leaders will definitely do everything they can to find the reason. Under their investigation, even if you can explain it away, it'll increase the risk. However, if I leave a few more people alive, it'll be even better for you. It'll be able to erase the suspicions the elders have towards you. They'll think that your survival is due to luck. "
"You're helping me? But why are you helping me? "Jianchen asked in confusion.
Aoyama stood up and stared at Jianchen with shining eyes. He said seriously, "Because you're a member of our Martial Soul lineage! Our Martial Soul lineage has always been as close as brothers since ancient times. We're a family. As long as you possess Martial Soul Force, you'll be a successor of our Martial Soul lineage regardless of your identity or race. You'll be a person blessed by the heavens. "
"And you possess Martial Soul Force. Even though your Martial Soul Force is extremely weak, it's unable to deny the fact that you're a successor of our Martial Soul lineage. As a result, not only are we not enemies, but we're also fellow disciples who look after each other wholeheartedly."
Aoyama's answer surprised Jianchen. He knew he possessed Martial Soul Force, but he had never thought that the Martial Soul lineage would actually possess such a secret.
"That's a little too absurd. Although I possess Martial Soul Force, I have nothing to do with your Martial Soul lineage," Jianchen said.
"You're wrong. Every single person who possesses Martial Soul Force is born from the world. This is just like Radiant Saint Masters. Whether a person has the potential to become a Radiant Saint Master is determined the moment they're born. If they do, then they do. If they don't, then they don't. Unlike fighters, who can start off as mortals and cultivate step by step, even mortals without any talent can be modified and raised through various heavenly resources and various methods. As a result, there's a saying that Radiant Saint Masters are born from the world. "
"The same principle applies to us, Martial Soul Force. However, the birth of Martial Soul Force is countless times more difficult than the birth of Radiant Saint Masters. Every single person who possesses Martial Soul Force is an existence blessed by the heavens. In every generation, it's impossible for the number of people who possess Martial Soul Force to reach the double digits."
"It's exactly because there are so few people in our Martial Soul lineage that we're protected by the will of the heavens. The laws of the world form a special law, allowing every single person who possesses Martial Soul Force to follow the guidance of the will of the heavens and walk together in the end."
"In the beginning, I, Aoyama, was the same as you. I cultivated alone and wandered the Saints' World by myself, but in the end, I entered the Martial Soul Mountain by coincidence. It's not just me. Even the other seniors of our Martial Soul Mountain, as well as the deceased seniors of our Martial Soul lineage, have all become members of the Martial Soul Mountain through various methods. There have been no exceptions throughout history. "
