Harry said, "Old Dotard (Yutu), have you considered the matter I told you on the way here? Your disciple's death can't be blamed on Dumb. Don't be too stubborn and make things difficult for us. "
Yutu snorted, "There's nothing to consider. Even if that hateful Tiro deserves to die, there's no need to torture him to death. I don't care, I have to seek justice from Di Si no matter what. At the very least, I have to teach that kid a lesson. "
Harry laughed, "Teach him a lesson? In my opinion, it's good enough that you don't want him to teach him a lesson. Di Si is really amazing to have cultivated such a strong grand-disciple. He's much stronger than us three old fellows. There are now five Sword Saints on the continent. Old Dotard, be careful. Don't fail miserably. "
Yutu said angrily, "I admit that I can't beat Di Si, but his disciple is no match for me. Harry, don't take pleasure in my misfortune. Just wait until the competition starts, I'll teach you a lesson."
Harry spread his hands helplessly and said, "It doesn't matter, do what you want. I've never won in all these years anyway. I'm already used to losing. What's the point of winning against me? If you have the ability, then beat Di Si. I'll admire you. I'll agree to whatever conditions you have. "
Ha Tu was rendered speechless by Harry's words. Although he was arrogant, he knew that he was no match for the Celestial Dipper Sword Sage.
Yun Yi laughed, "You guys! You haven't changed after all these years. You're still the same. Quarreling as soon as we meet. Actually, we're all over a hundred years old now. What's there to quarrel about? Perhaps this will be the last time we four old fellows get together. This time, we must disturb Di Si for a few more days. There won't be another chance in the future. "
All nine of them were people with profound cultivation, especially the three Sword Saints. As they spoke, they were already nearing the top of the main peak of the Big Dipper Mountain Range. The mountain gate of Tiangang School was in sight. A hundred disciples stood on both sides of the door. At the entrance of the Sword Sect, seven old men with heavy swords on their backs were waiting. They were the seven second-generation disciples of Tiangang School led by Xi Wen. Beside them were Dumby, who was dressed in a fluttering white robe, and Xuan Yue, who was dressed in a red priest robe. When they saw the three Sword Saints appear, the seven of them flew up at the same time and greeted them.
Yun Yi and the others stopped in their tracks. Xi Wen quickly stepped forward and said respectfully, "Tiangang School Master Xi Wen and the disciples welcome the three seniors."
Yun Yi sighed softly. "It's been twenty years. Xi Wen, you've grown old. His hair is all white, just like us. "
Xi Wen smiled and said, "Senior Yun Xiao, you are still as valiant as before! I'm over ninety years old. Naturally, my hair is all white. Seniors, please come in. " Yun Yi nodded and followed Xi Wen to the gates of Tiangang School.
Yutu glared at Dumb hatefully but Dumb didn't seem to see it. His expression was still indifferent. Yutu was shocked. He suddenly realized that he could no longer see the youth's cultivation. Compared to the last time on the plains of the Yalian people, his cultivation seemed to have grown a lot. He snorted coldly and said, "Di Si is so arrogant! An old friend came to visit and he didn't even show his face. " Xi Wen sighed softly and said, "Senior Yutu, Master has his own difficulties. You'll understand once we go in." Yun Yi smiled. "It's nothing. Brother Di Si is older. It's only right that he doesn't come to welcome us. Xi Wen! Your cultivation seems to be close to the realm of swordsman. It looks like you've passed the ninth level of the Life Chant. "
Xi Wen's body shook and he secretly exclaimed. He said respectfully, "Thanks to Senior, I just broke through the ninth level not long ago."
Yun Yi said, "Brother Di Si really has a successor! I heard from Harry that there's another disciple who has also broken through the ninth level. Is that true? "
Xi Wen nodded and gave Dumb a look. Dumb quickly stepped forward and bowed. "Tiangang School's third generation disciple, Dumb, greets the three seniors."
Harry smiled and said, "Little Dumby! Your skills seem to have grown a lot. It looks like the new generation is replacing the old! I'm getting more and more jealous of Di Si. "
Yun Yi's eyes flashed. He was shocked to find that although the youth in front of him was standing there and bowing to them, the heat from his body was like an unshakable mountain. There wasn't a single flaw. Nodding, he said, "Yes, Harry just told me that Tiangang School has a disciple who has a profound cultivation and has already reached the realm of swordsman. I didn't believe it. It looks like he was right. "At his level of cultivation, he could almost determine the level of others' skills with a glance.
Dumb had never seen Yun Yi before. He couldn't help but look at him. Since Xi Wen had told him that Yun Yi and his master, Tiangang Kensei, had the best relationship, he naturally had a good impression of him. He smiled and said, "Senior, you flatter me."
Under the lead of Xi Wen and the seven second generation disciples, everyone entered the meeting hall of Tiangang School. Since there were many teachers present, Dumb and Xuanyue couldn't catch up with the four skeletons. The four skeletons wore ordinary clothes today. The ice skeleton would occasionally look at Dumb with bitterness, but Dumb kept his head down as if he didn't know anything. On the other hand, Blood Skull, Iron Skull, and Wind Skull all focused their attention on the beautiful Xuan Yue. Although they had guessed that the girl in the red dress in front of them was Xuan Ri, who had been with Dumby before, they had not expected her to be so beautiful. Blood Skull was a little better, but Iron Skull and Wind Skull were a little stunned.
Everyone took their seats. Yun Yi said, "Xi Wen, where's big brother Di Si? Is he still cultivating? "
Xi Wen stood up silently and looked at Dumb. He sighed and said, "Today, I want to announce something here." His voice traveled far with vital energy so that the Tiangang School disciples outside the meeting hall could hear him.
Hearing Xi Wen's words, the three sword saints frowned at the same time. They were here to find Tiangang Kensei and really didn't want to waste any more time here. Yutu was about to say something but was stopped by Yun Yi's gaze. Xi Wen paused and continued, "What I want to announce is that my teacher, Tiangang Kensei, has ascended to immortality."
"What?" Yun Yi, Yutu, and Harry stood up at the same time. A powerful and awe-inspiring pressure suddenly emanated from them, forcing the seven second-generation disciples of Tiangang School to take a step back. The disciples of the Heavenly Dipper Sword Faction who were outside the meeting hall immediately started discussing among themselves. Sorrow instantly filled the hearts of all the disciples. After all, to them, the Heavenly Dipper Sword Saint was like a legend of a god. Many of the fourth generation disciples had never seen the Heavenly Dipper Sword Saint before. Now that they heard that the number one expert in the world whom they were most proud of had passed away, how could they not feel emotional? Yun Yi said in a low voice, "Xi Wen, what is going on? You have to give us an explanation."
Feeling the powerful aura coming from Yun Yi and the other two, Xi Wen's eyes flashed. He took a step forward without fear and said, "Seniors, master has actually passed away many years ago. However, before he left, he instructed us not to spread the news of his death. We must wait until there is another sword saint in the sword sect. Other than us second-generation disciples, the lower-generation disciples do not know.
Please take a seat. " A glimmer of tears flashed through Yun Yi's eyes. His body swayed slightly as he murmured, "Brother Di Si, I didn't think you would pass away just like that. We are both opponents and friends. I didn't even make it in time to send you off. Sigh, it looks like we are really old. Death is inevitable! Even you, the most powerful, are … "
The bad-tempered Yutu sighed silently and said, "People have to die. But Boss Di Si died just like that. We have no more opponents."
Harry looked up at Dumb and said with some blame, "Did you already know? Why didn't you tell me? "
Dumb's eyes were red as he said, "I'm sorry, Uncle Harry. That was Master's last wish. I could not go against it!"
Xi Wen took a deep breath and said loudly, "At the same time, I want to announce that from today onwards, Tiangang Kensei will be replaced by a third-generation disciple, Dumb, as the new sword saint. He will also be the eternal supervisor of the sword sect. He has the power to supervise any actions of the sword sect. No matter who it is, including me, as long as they violate the sect rules, the supervisor has the power to punish them directly. "
"Wait, what right does he have to take over Boss Di Si's position? He's just a brat and he wants to ride over us three old men to become the first sword saint of the continent? Absolutely not. "
Yun Yi glanced at Yutu's indignant expression and said with slight anger, "This is Tiangang School's own business. Don't think you can do whatever you want just because Brother Di Si is dead. I'm here too, so be quiet. I'm not in a good mood right now. You should know what will happen to you if you provoke me under these circumstances. "
Yutu was still somewhat afraid of Yun Yi. He huffed and sat back in his seat. Xi Wen bowed to Yun Yi and said, "Thank you for your kindness, elder. However, our Heavenly Dipper Sword Faction will definitely give the three seniors an explanation. When master passed away, it was already decided that Dumb and the three of you would compete as sword saints. I'm officially announcing his identity today to give him a title. "
The sadness in Dumb's eyes disappeared and was replaced by a face of indifference. He took a light step forward and landed in front of Yun Yi, saying, "Elders, please advise me."
Harry walked to Dumb's side and patted his shoulder, saying, "Boss Di Si is dead. I'm not in the mood to fight anymore. I think we should cancel this meeting of the four sword saints. In our hearts, Boss Di Si will always be the strongest. " Dumb's heart warmed. He understood that the main reason Harry said this was because he was afraid that Yutu would take revenge on him during the competition. He smiled gratefully and said, "Uncle Harry, as the heir to Grandmaster's title of sword saint, I beg you three elders to give me this opportunity. I cannot let Grandmaster, who has ascended to another world, be shamed. If you three elders no longer need to rest, then, please go to the back of the mountain. "Finishing, he made a gesture of invitation.
"Dumb, are you crazy?" An anxious voice reached Dumb's ears. Dumb paused and looked towards the source of the voice. He saw that the one speaking was the ice skeleton. Yutu's eyes flashed with anger and he snapped, "Fourth, shut up." Under his master's pressure, the ice skeleton looked deeply at Dumb before retreating to the side. Dumb smiled apologetically and shook his head lightly at the ice skeleton.
Yutu glared at Dumb and said, "Boy, why are you looking at my disciple? Do you want to kill another one? Fine, I won't object to you replacing Boss Di Si. But if you die by my hand, you can't blame anyone else. Lead the way. "Dumb ignored his threat. After greeting Yun Yi and Harry, he led the way out of the hall. Under his lead, Yun Yi's group of nine, as well as Xi Wen's seven brothers and Xuanyue, came to the grotto at the back of the mountain where Tiangang Kensei had cultivated. Dumb walked all the way to the edge of the cliff beside the grotto before stopping. He stood with his hands behind his back. The mountain breeze blew, giving off an otherworldly feeling. Yun Yi, Yutu, and Harry floated up and landed in front of Dumb. The other spectators retreated in unison. They only stopped after retreating a few hundred meters. Xi Wen's group of seven activated their fighting energy at the same time, ready to receive the shockwaves of energy from the four masters in front of them.
The temperature at the top of the Big Dipper Mountain was very low. The edge of the cliff was covered in a thin layer of ice. But Dumby and the other three stood there like unshakable mountains. Their white, blue, red, and green robes fluttered slightly in the cold mountain wind. None of them said anything. They just silently stared at the other three. Under the gaze of the three sword saints, Dumb did not panic at all. The strong pressure did not seem to affect him at all.
With a smile, Dumb said, "Seniors, this is my first time participating in the sword saint competition. Please set the rules."
Yun Yi sighed softly and nodded. "Actually, I think the same as Harry. There is no meaning to this competition anymore. However, since you're willing to replace your Grandmaster to complete this competition, how can we refuse? How about this? Let's change the rules. As long as you can take three moves from each of us with all our strength, we'll respect you and let you become the second Celestial Dipper Sword Saint after your grandmaster. " Hearing Yun Yi's words, Harry smiled faintly and nodded lightly. Yutu, on the other hand, looked shocked. He did not expect Yun Yi to make such a decision.
Looking at Yun Yi's simple face, the elder brother felt a surge of excitement. Of course, he knew that Yun Yi wanted to help him. Taking a deep breath, he bowed to Yun Yi and said, "Alright, we will do as you say. Which Senior would like to give me some pointers first? "" Humph "he said," What a crafty and slippery kid, you are a disgrace to Di Si. "
Dumb glanced coldly at Yutu and said, "Senior Sword Saint of the North, please go first. If I cannot defeat you in three moves, you can take Dumb's life. "
Yutu's entire body shook and a red light flashed. He roared, "What did you say? Defeat me in three moves? You're looking to die. " The wine gourd at his waist had slipped into his hand. Following his lightning-fast body, it flew toward Dumb's head. Dumb still stood with his hands behind his back, not a trace of surprise on his face. Golden light floated out of his body. Very simply, Dumb's fist met Yutu's. The golden Dou Qi contained in his fist did not seem to have any power. Harry and Yun Yi saw that the two had begun to fight and could only retreat to the side to watch the fight. Dumb's fist and Yutu's wine gourd collided without making a sound. Even Xi Wen and the others, who were hundreds of meters away, could feel the intense heat from the Fire Dragon zhenqi that Yutu had activated. Some of the ice on the mountaintop had already begun to melt. The expression on Yutu's face was changing because when his wine gourd and Dumb's fist met, the other's vast energy seemed to have no end. No matter how much he channeled his fighting energy, he could not advance an inch. A glimmer of light flashed across Dumb's eyes. He shouted in a low voice, "Open!" With a crash, Yutu's wine gourd shattered into pieces. The remaining wine in the gourd spilled out. Yutu's figure was shaken until he staggered back nine steps before he could steady himself. His face had already become somewhat pale. It was clear that he had suffered a loss.
Dumb waved his hand and the wine in the air was sucked into his hand. As the energy was converted, the wine condensed into a ball. Dumb shook his hand and the crystal-like ball floated out. He said indifferently, "Senior Yutu, take one of my moves as well." The crystal-like ball turned into a beautiful arc and flew toward Yutu.
In all these years, Yutu had never been in such a sorry state as he was today. Although he had underestimated his opponent in the beginning, after the actual fight, he had already used all his strength. But the result was that he had been forced back nine steps by this unremarkable youth in front of him. Even Tiangang Kensei did not have this kind of strength. In his shock, the ball of fine wine in his wine gourd had already rushed toward him. After all, Yutu had the strength of a Sword Saint. Although he was shocked, his reaction was not slow at all. A red light flashed from his waist, slashing toward the ball of wine in front of him like a fire snake. Like a fire snake, it slashed towards the ball of wine in front of it. Before the scorching energy touched the ball of wine, the wine had already started burning. It was like a huge fireball. "Puff —" The fireball was split in two and flew out from either side of Yutu's body. Dumb did not chase after it. He stood in place and looked coldly at the Northern Sword Saint in front of him. Yutu adjusted the aura in his body and said hatefully, "Brat, you actually forced me to use the Crimson Dragon."
Dumb looked indifferently at the soft sword in Yutu's hand that was engulfed in flames. He was secretly shocked. From the energy contained in the Crimson Dragon sword, it was clearly an ice blade that was not inferior to a low-level divine artifact. "Senior Yutu, that was just one move. There are still two more moves. Please use your full strength." A golden light suddenly flashed in Dumb's hand. The pure energy gradually condensed into a long sword. The size of the long sword kept growing. In just a few blinks of an eye, a huge energy sword that was about three meters long, one and a half feet wide, and one and a half feet thick appeared in his hand. Dumb raised his right arm and pointed the huge sword at the sky. His entire body was filled with an insufferably arrogant aura. The surging airflow spread out in the form of a vortex.
Yes, Dumb had finally reached the realm that Tiangang Kensei had mentioned before. In these 18 days of seclusion, in order to better face the challenges from the three Sword Saints, he had constantly increased the power of his vital energy and gradually absorbed the last energy of the second golden body. Under the effect of his powerful golden body, the second golden body was constantly nibbled away. Finally, it had completely fused with the golden body in his body this morning. His current golden body was eight inches tall and almost occupied his entire Dantian. The huge amount of energy had already turned the golden body from gold to white. This caused Dumb's cultivation to reach an unprecedented height. He had finally completely surpassed the realm that Tiangang Kensei had reached in the past. He had reached the last transformation of the Living Transformation — Gold Transformation. Dumb was now completely confident that he could rely on his valiant strength to compete with the three Sword Saints. Seeing the energy sword in Dumb's hand, the three Sword Saints were all shocked. At their level, they naturally understood what such a huge energy sword represented. It was absolute strength.
Xi Wen could not hide the joy in his heart. His white hair fluttered even though there was no wind. He muttered, "Good, good. Dumb, you've finally reached it. This is the domain of gods! You've already broken through the realm of Sword Saint and become the first Sword God in the entire continent. "
Dumb's left hand slowly moved to his right hand, holding onto his huge solid energy sword with both hands at the same time. Yutu, who was in front of him, could clearly feel that the air around him seemed to be engulfed by that powerful energy sword. He had no way of escaping from the attack range of this energy sword. He could only brace himself and raise his Fire Dragon Essential Qi to the maximum, urging the Crimson Dragon Sword in his hand to stand straight and emit a scorching aura. Before Dumb's Divine level powers, he was already a little timid.
Dumb said in a deep voice, "Senior Yutu, please receive my sword attack. Tiangang Sword Technique's first stance — Cleave." Dumb's spirit had completely fused with the huge energy sword in his hand. His body moved along with the sword, becoming one with the sword as he slashed out toward Yutu. The golden sword released an incomparably powerful aura, suppressing the Fire Dragon Essential Qi on the Crimson Dragon Sword in Yutu's hand, causing it to tremble incessantly. No matter who it was, they could clearly tell that Yutu would definitely not be able to receive this attack from Dumb. Yutu's eyes were wide open, his hair and beard bristled in anger. He gripped the Crimson Dragon Sword with both hands and charged forward.
Dumb's heart was incomparably calm. The situation was completely under his control. At this moment, the girl's face when she died flashed through his mind. A dense murderous intent seeped out of his body. It was the aura of a death god. Just as the heaven-defying sword was about to devour Hushu Tu's body and soul, four voices rang out at the same time. "Have mercy." One of the voices was sharp and filled with anxiety, and it was especially clear. Dumb's spirit shook. He knew that this cry came from the four skeletons. Thinking back to the ice skeleton's cold and sorrowful eyes when he left, Dumb sighed to himself. "Boom —" A huge shockwave suddenly exploded at the center of Dumb and Yutu's battle. Under the effect of the shockwave, even Yun Yi and Harry couldn't help but retreat. A figure flashed past. Dumb floated and landed ten meters behind Yutu. The huge energy sword in his hand was still emitting a golden glow in front of him. Yutu's Crimson Dragon Sword's glow had already dimmed. It hung limply in his hand. His old body trembled slightly, and his eyes, which were originally shining brightly, became abnormally turbid. It was as if he had aged a few decades in an instant, and was trembling slightly.
Although Xuanyue was outstanding in magic, she did not know much about martial arts. She anxiously asked Xi Wen beside her, "Martial Uncle, is Dumb alright?"
Xi Wen stroked his beard and smiled, "When the difference in power between two people is too great, the victor will usually be decided in a short period of time. Yutu has already lost, completely lost. "
A red glow flashed. The Crimson Dragon Sword in Yutu's hand disappeared into his waist. The scorching air current disappeared. He turned around while trembling, and said to Dumb's back, "Let's forget about Tiro's matter. I admit defeat. "With that said, he floated beside Harry without saying a word. He sat cross-legged on the ground and did not utter a word. He understood in his heart, if not for Dumb showing mercy earlier, he would have already become a fan. After hearing the four skeletons' shouts, Dumb completely retracted the energy sword's golden glow. He switched from offense to defense. Although he had completely neutralized Yutu's Fire Dragon Qi, he was not injured in the slightest.
Dumb slowly turned around. Defeating the Northern Swordmaster in one strike made him feel incomparably delighted. He faced the three Swordmasters and bowed slightly, "Thank you for letting me win."
Harry dispersed the green lotus qi that was protecting his body, and said with a smile, "It seems like I won't be able to use those newly developed moves. Even Yutu is not your match, I forfeit. Anyway, I'm always the last. There is no shame in losing again. Dumb! You really made Boss Disi proud. Even now, I still don't understand how you trained. You're only in your twenties, so how could you possibly possess such formidable strength? Are all of us old fellows trash? "
Dumb saw that Yun Yi and Harry had no intention of making a move. He kept the giant solid energy sword back into his body and sighed, "The reason why this junior can have today's achievements is all because of grandmaster. If it wasn't for grandmaster, I would definitely not have reached the highest realm of Life Qi. At this point, there is nothing for me to hide. The reason why grandmaster passed away was because he passed on all his power to me. He passed it on to me using the Open Top Technique. The old man's enormous energy formed a second golden body in my body, which was gradually absorbed by me as I cultivated. I've just completely assimilated Grand Master's power today, and I've finally reached the level that Grand Master had hoped for. "
Yutu, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes. They were filled with shock. He looked at Harry and Yun Yi and sighed, "Boss is boss. No matter when, he always walks further than us. He really has courage! Kid, you're very lucky, did you know? The success rate of this Open Top Technique is less than thirty percent. If it fails, not only will your grandmaster die, you won't be spared either. No wonder, no wonder! I'm convinced, I, Yutu, am convinced. Disi, wait for me in heaven. When I get there, I must worship you as my teacher. " Yun Yi smiled, "This can be said to be the shortest trial among the four swordmasters. I don't think we need to continue. Tiangang Kensei is still the head of the four swordmasters. It's just that his name has been changed from Disi to Dumb. Dumb, you don't have to be so humble. Actually, the power that Brother Disi passed on to you had a great impact on you. But if you didn't train hard, you wouldn't have achieved what you have today. We're all old. In the future, everything will belong to you young people. "
Dumb took two steps back and knelt before the three swordmasters with a thud. Yun Yi and Harry couldn't help but be shocked. Yutu frowned and said with slight anger, "Kid, are you trying to insult us?"
Harry stepped forward and tried to pull Dumby up, but he was blocked by Dumby's thick fighting spirit. "Dumby, what are you doing?"
Dumb lowered his head and said, "Seniors, Dumb has a request. I hope you will agree."
Yun Yi walked to Harry's side and said, "Stand up first. You're the first among us four swordmasters. No matter what, you have to be clear about your status. How can you kneel so casually? "
Dumb didn't move. He said sincerely, "I will naturally stand up when I'm done. Senior Yun Yi, I'm not kneeling for myself. I'm kneeling for the people of the world. The mainland is about to undergo a huge change. The Dark Saint Religion formed by the dark forces is trying to open the entrance to the Demon World. If they succeed, the humans on the mainland will be in deep trouble. For the continuation of our race, for survival, I beg you to look at the bigger picture and work together to help the Holy Hall completely destroy these dark forces. "
Yun Yi nodded slightly and said, "I've heard Harry mention this a few times. But he wasn't clear. Stand up first and tell us in detail. "
Dumb saw that Yun Yi had loosened up and that Harry was naturally on his side. He floated up and explained everything about the Dark Saint Religion and the Death Mountain Range in detail.
After listening to Dumb's narration, Yun Yi frowned and said, "I didn't ask about the mainland for decades. I didn't expect the dark forces to have developed to such an extent. We're humans after all. It's only right for us to do our best to protect our survival. Child, I promise you. I've lived for more than a hundred years anyway. I'll accompany you to the Death Mountain Range and see how powerful those undead creatures are. "
Dumb was overjoyed and said respectfully, "Thank you, Senior Yun Yi. Uncle Harry, what about you?"
Harry smiled and said, "Of course. Didn't I promise you long ago? By the way, I forgot to tell you something good. Xiao Huan, whom you sent to my place, and my eldest son have a very good relationship now! Maybe they'll get married after we've completely destroyed the dark forces. "
Dumb's body shook. He couldn't help but think of the girl when Xiao Huan was mentioned. He nodded and said, "This is the best home for her. Thank you, Uncle Harry."
