"We're finally here." Standing on the towering Yuheng Peak, Lin Yao let out a long sigh. He had been careful the entire way, but it was more daunting than dangerous. He sent Li Yaotian and Huo Ying to the foot of Yuheng Peak without any obstruction.
"Academician …"
"Teacher …"
There were not many people on the peak, but when they saw Li Yaotian, they quickly gathered. Then they saw Huo Ying beside Li Yaotian.
"Senior … Senior Huo?" Huo Ying had only left Yuheng Peak for a few years. Most of the Yuheng Peak students still recognized him and called him "Senior Brother."
"Long time no see." Huo Ying smiled.
It was a familiar mountain peak and familiar faces, but he never thought that he would return to this place one day. Ever since he left Yuheng Peak and moved to the five academies to await death, he never thought he would return here.
But now, he'd once again returned to Alioth Peak, and even though his body was already extremely weak, the heroic spirit in his chest was even stronger than before. He wanted to thank Lu Ping. Although Lu Ping had not done anything to him, just looking at the youth had dispelled the gloom in Huo Ying's heart.
"There's no need to help us," he said to Chu Zhuang, who had helped him along the way.
"How are the two of you feeling?" Yu Jichen asked. He had not stopped treating them along the way. Although they could not recover so quickly, especially since Huo Ying's illness had long been determined to be incurable, there would be some effect.
"Pretty good." Huo Ying smiled. After Chu Zhuang let go of him, he still stood very steadily.
"Send the message. Prepare to activate the Seven Elements Relief," Li Yaotian said to the students who came to greet him.
"Yes!" The students hurriedly sent the message. The Seven Elements Disaster Relief customization on the Alioth Peak was guarded by twenty-one or more disciples at all times. The students on duty would not leave their posts at any time. When they heard Academician Yu Heng's order, they immediately began to prepare. At the locations of the mechanisms on the peak, the soul power began to circulate differently. The soul power that had been flowing in the air above Yuheng Peak also began to fluctuate differently. It was just that every part of it was different and had yet to be connected into a whole.
Everyone's gaze fell on Li Yaotian. The activation of the Seven Elements Relief only lacked this center. But looking at Li Yaotian's current state, could he do it? Everyone couldn't help but feel worried.
"Let's go together," Li Yaotian said to Huo Ying.
"Yes." Huo Ying nodded. The master and disciple walked toward the restricted area on Yuheng Peak. Other than the seven academicians and their first disciple, no one else had the right to enter the central location of the Seven Elements Relief for Distress — the peak of Yuheng Peak.
The peak was a hundred meters higher than where everyone was standing. They were four isolated peaks with smooth sides. There were no stone steps to climb them. However, Li Yaotian and Huo Ying were familiar with this peak, so they did not climb it. However, he arrived at the foot of the Lonely Peak. A custom-made Soul Power lit up on the mountain wall, and the two of them entered the mountain just like that.
Those present were all students of the North Style Academy for quite some time, they were already used to this scene. Seeing that Li Yaotian and Huo Ying had already entered the custom-made shop, Lin Yao and the other two began to bid farewell to the other disciples of Alioth Peak. They were also in a hurry to support their teacher, Xu Lixue. Li Yaotian and Huo Ying had already entered the central command center. That way, there would be no more safety issues. The most sturdy part of the Seven Elements Relief for Distress was the central command center. Next, they would have to see if their bodies could withstand the Seven Elements Relief for Distress. This was no longer something that bystanders could help with.
"Academician Li! Teacher Huo Ying! Keep it up!!! "Before leaving, the usually optimistic Chu Zhuang suddenly turned around and shouted at the lone peak. Yu Jichen, who was beside him, did not turn around, but there were tears at the corner of his eyes. Having been treating the two of them along the way, he knew better than anyone else the condition of their bodies. Along the way, he had been struggling with himself. He had wanted to stop the two of them several times, but in the end, he could not open his mouth.
This was because the two of them were so determined no matter how difficult it was. Just like the last time they walked toward the lone peak, staggering but unwavering.
No one could stop them.
Yu Jichen could not, and neither could their own physical conditions.
They had such perseverance, so Yu Jichen did not doubt that they could activate the Seven Elements Relief for Distress. However, they would need to pay the price of their lives to do so.
Moreover, one person was not enough. They needed two people.
Hence, Li Yaotian called for Huo Ying. Huo Ying followed without any hesitation.
This was to protect the North Style Academy, to protect everyone here. What he had was a senior like that.
"We cannot fall behind," Lin Yao said.
"Yes." Yu Jichen waved his hand and wiped away the tears at the corner of his eyes.
"Whether it is the Three Greats or the Darkness, prepare to die!" Chu Zhuang shouted again. When the three disciples came, they had to support the two injured people, so they did not walk quickly. But when they returned, they left quickly. The three of them did not follow the path of the highest and steepest peak of the seven peaks, Alioth Peak. They chose the shortest path down the mountain and quickly dove into the mountain rocks.
Keep it up!
The people of Alioth Peak who remained on the mountain clenched their fists and looked up at the summit of the lone peak, waiting for the activation of the Seven Elements Relief for Distress.
Within the lone peak.
An ancient sword floated in the middle. There were two sides of the sword. There were no more, no less. There were seven spots of rust on it, like seven scars.
The name of the sword was Seven Stars. It was the core of the North Style Academy's transcendent Divine Weapon, the Seven Elements Relief for Distress. If there was no transcendent Divine Weapon to control the Seven Elements Relief, no one would be able to control it. There was no one who could support the entire situation.
Li Yaotian, Huo Ying, and his teacher were standing beneath the sword.
The mountain was not a cave, but a barrier created by the power of souls. Those who did not meet the requirements would never be able to reach this place, so there was no need to worry about enemies barging in.
Huo Ying looked up at the Seven Stars Sword. There were seven spots of rust on this transcendent Divine Weapon. It did not have any luster, and its appearance could be described as ugly. But it was this ugly sword that was the North Style Academy's greatest safety barrier.
So what if it was a Divine Weapon? One could not judge a book by its cover. Take Lu Ping for example. Who would have thought that he was an unprecedented expert? Take him for example. Who would have thought that the dignified first disciple of Alioth Peak would be so weak in the face of life and death?
What a good-for-nothing!
Huo Ying couldn't help but shake his head and laugh at himself as he thought of the past few years.
"How long has it been since you came here?" Li Yaotian suddenly asked.
"More than four years?" Huo Ying couldn't remember the last time he came here to check on this custom made item.
"It's been more than four years. You shouldn't have forgotten about it, right?" Li Yaotian said.
"Not really." Huo Ying said.
"That's good." Li Yaotian nodded.
He, who had always been the most serious and cautious, actually stopped making any confirmations with Huo Ying and immediately started the custom made item. Huo Ying didn't seem to be surprised. He immediately understood and stood where he was supposed to stand.
Under normal circumstances, the Seven Elements Relief Great Order didn't need two people to preside over it. Two people presiding over it would obviously be different from one person presiding over it.
The two of them used this uncommon method, but didn't communicate with each other at all. However, they didn't make the slightest mistake either.
The two of them methodically used their soul power. Even the occasional pained expression that flashed across their faces seemed to complement each other.
The Seven Stars Sword floating in the air suddenly started to tremble. The power of souls that had already been activated outside started to pour into the sword. The two rust spots on the sword's body started to glow. One spot, two spots, they were like stars that lit up in the night sky, flashing one after another.
The Seven Stars Sword suddenly became different. It was no longer that old and ugly, but it became resplendent and bright.
Li Yaotian and Huo Ying were unmoved. They continued with their work.
After two spots were lit, the third, the fourth …
The continuous injection of power of souls suddenly stopped at this moment. The two of them looked surprised.
The fifth rust spot was not lit. The fifth star was not lit.
Li Yaotian looked at Huo Ying, and Huo Ying looked back at him. Their judgment was the same.
The Seven Stars Sword was the center of the Seven Elements Relief Great Order. However, the Seven Stars Sword was not the only transcendent-grade Divine Weapon in the center of the great order.
This was because it was not enough to support the Seven Elements Relief Great Order with just one transcendent-grade Divine Weapon. Therefore, it had an assistant, a fifth-grade Divine Weapon. It was the wing of the Seven Stars Sword that assisted and protected the Seven Stars Sword.
After two thousand years of coexistence, the Seven Stars Sword and the wing of the Seven Stars Sword gradually resonated. The two were like one.
But now, the Seven Stars Sword was suspended in the middle, but the wing of the wing had suddenly disappeared.
Yes, suddenly.
How could someone as serious as Li Yaotian not make such a confirmation before activating it? The wing of the wing was clearly still there.
How could such a thing happen?
The two of them, who were forced to stop, could only watch as the starlight on the Seven Stars Sword faded bit by bit.
Empty, empty.
In the darkness of the custom boundary, three sounds suddenly came. A touch of green flashed three times in the darkness. The knocking sounds came from these three times.
"Are the two of you looking for this?" A voice came from there.
The voice was extremely familiar, and so was the figure that walked out of the darkness.
Chen Chu. In his left hand was a square stone with six holes, and in his right hand was his Divine Weapon, Pulling Guidance.
Empty, empty.
