While searching for Chu Yaoguang, Yu Tianquan also diverted some of his attention to the long sword.
However, the long sword was silent and did not move at all.
Yu Tianquan frowned slightly. The smile on his face disappeared as he fell into deep thought.
The figures of two people seemed to flash past his eyes at lightning speed.
Both of them were women. One of them was Chu Yaoguang from more than 30 years ago. She was dressed in purple and had a saber hanging from her waist.
The other woman in white carried a long sword diagonally behind her back. Her eyes were bright like stars and she had a sharp aura.
That was his second senior sister, Zong Tianxuan.
Once upon a time, the three of them, together with the other four, had studied under the same master. They had gotten along quite well.
Yu Tianquan was confident that their relationship would not be worse than Chu Yaoguang's relationship with Lei Han and the others.
However, just like the current 12 Kings of Hell, everyone would part ways one day.
The seven of them were known as the Big Dipper. They were all peerless martial arts geniuses. Unfortunately, they split up and even became enemies.
Zong Tianxuan and Chu Yaoguang wanted to get rid of them. Weren't they the same now?
They hated each other as much as they loved each other in the past.
Five against two, they had the upper hand in the end. In the end, Zong Tianxuan and Chu Yaoguang were separated and could only escape to avoid being hunted down.
Zong Tianxuan escaped after being seriously injured by Eldest Senior Brother. Everyone looked everywhere for her.
Yu Tianquan found this place only to find that Zong Tianxuan was not the only one here. Chu Yaoguang was also here.
His former junior sister was hiding here. She had actually become sworn brothers with some people and created the 12 Kings of Hell together.
Did she want to use the strength of these people to counterattack?
Unfortunately, they heard about the Immortals and countless people besieged them.
Chu Yaoguang was seriously injured in the Immortals and barely escaped. He was separated from the rest of the 12 Kings of Hell.
Then, he met Zong Tianxuan who had also escaped here.
They were really a pair of sisters in trouble. Although the reason was different, both of them were seriously injured and could not take care of each other.
Yu Tianquan took advantage of the situation to catch them all.
Unfortunately, even a rotten ship had three catties of nails. His two fellow disciples were indeed not easy to deal with. Their desperate counterattack also brought him great trouble.
Yu Tianquan walked on the sea and a scene unconsciously appeared in front of him.
The purple-clothed, red-haired woman floated in the sea, barely breathing.
The white-clothed woman's chest was pierced through by his spear.
However, his opponent's sword had also pierced his body.
Perhaps it was because she knew that she was exhausted and couldn't win against him even if she exchanged injuries, so the sword intent of the white-clothed woman's sword changed abruptly towards the end.
The star that was about to explode and collapse actually didn't explode after being rapidly compressed.
Everything seemed to have stopped halfway, as if time had frozen.
As a result, even he was nailed to the bottom of the sea by the tip of his sword. His entire body was frozen.
Not only did his physical body stop moving, even the thoughts in his mind seemed to gradually come to a halt.
Second Senior Sister's move had really exceeded his expectations …
Initially, Yu Tianquan was confident that he could exchange light injuries for heavy injuries. That way, Zong Tianxuan, who was already at the end of her rope, would be on her last breath even if she didn't die. She wouldn't be able to fight anymore.
On the other side, Chu Yaoguang was on the verge of death.
Even if he was injured, these two opponents were just lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
However, Zong Tianxuan changed her move at the last moment and sealed him at the bottom of the sea.
Although he didn't really suffer any real injuries and only suffered some minor injuries after breaking free from the seal, he couldn't continue chasing after Zong Tianxuan and Chu Yaoguang at that time.
Of course, they couldn't attack him while he was still.
Even the slightest movement was equivalent to helping him break free from the seal.
In their state at that time, they couldn't even continue to stay at the bottom of the sea, let alone fight with him again.
If they didn't quickly float to the surface, the pressure of the deep sea alone would be enough to crush them.
The two of them could be considered to be on the verge of death.
Yu Tianquan looked at the motionless sword in his hand and pondered silently.
Had Zong Tianxuan already died at that time?
Or had she left this place?
With such heavy injuries, dying on the spot was normal. It would be a miracle if she survived.
Chu Yaoguang seemed to be this miracle …
Yu Tianquan put away his sword. The reminiscence in his eyes dissipated, and he became calm again.
Now, it was time for him to erase this miracle and make up for the loss of more than 30 years ago.
If Zong Tianxuan didn't die, then Chu Yaoguang might know her whereabouts.
Yu Tianquan calmed himself down and started to focus on observing the compass in his hand that was formed by the bloody light.
In the battle back then, not only did he severely injure Chu Yaoguang's body, but he also severely injured his soul.
There was a trace of Chu Yaoguang's soul on the tip of his spear. Now, he used the secret talisman he got from a Taoist friend in his early years to refine this trace of soul and turn it into a tracking method. Chu Yaoguang couldn't escape from his hands.
Compared to the other brothers, he was more confident of finding Chu Yaoguang.
The needle on the compass formed by the bloody light on the back of Yu Tianquan's hand trembled weaker and weaker, and the direction became clearer.
He carried the spear on his back and didn't break through the void to walk. He just stood on the sea and followed the compass's direction, slowly searching.
He had waited for more than 30 years, let alone now.
…
In the Daming Palace in Chang 'an City, Zhang Dongyun created an open area and practiced his martial arts.
Above his head, Qi and blood steamed and vaguely condensed into a square cauldron.
As Zhang Dongyun kept practicing, another square cauldron gradually appeared above his head.
Zhang Dongyun finished one round of practice and stopped. Slowly, he exhaled.
The two illusory square cauldrons floating above his head didn't disappear because he stopped.
Zhang Dongyun smiled slightly. "It's worth it to spend some time."
He was currently in the 11th realm of martial arts cultivation, also known as the second realm of Martial Emperor, Ding Cauldron.
The 12th realm of martial arts cultivation, also known as the third realm of Martial Emperor, was known as Sweeping the Eight Wastelands.
The nine cauldrons stood, sweeping the eight wastelands.
At this realm, martial artists could break through the boundaries of space to a certain extent. They could be said to be fast, but in fact, it wasn't just "speed" in the ordinary sense.
Although martial arts masters could release their Qi and blood to form Sword Qi and Fist Force, when their Qi and blood were completely condensed in their body, they would undoubtedly be at the peak of their attack, defense, and speed.
However, in this way, although they had the power to topple mountains, they had to get close to their opponents before they could attack them.
When cultivators of other sects dealt with martial artists of lower and middle realms, the first thing they had to do was to distance themselves.
However, at the third realm of Martial Emperor, Sweeping the Eight Wastelands, it was difficult for other opponents to distance themselves from them. To prevent martial artists from getting close to them, they had to think of other ways.
Zhang Dongyun was still a distance away from the nine cauldrons formation.
However, the second cauldron formation was more significant than the number itself.
This was a conceptual change from "one" to "many", not just "one" to "two".
From nothing to something, from one to many, and from lack to full, these were the three most important stages of a martial artist's cultivation at this stage.
The changes from zero to one, from one to two, and from eight to nine were the most significant.
Zhang Dongyun had successfully formed the second cauldron. Following that, the third, fourth, fifth, and so on would be much easier.
He would only encounter more challenges when he formed the eighth cauldron and sprinted toward the ninth cauldron.
However, with the support of Invincible City, it wasn't difficult for Zhang Dongyun.
The key was the length of time.
Zhang Dongyun dispersed the two cauldrons above his head. He returned to his normal state and pondered carefully.
Next, he would have to carefully plan his cultivation strategy once more …
While he was thinking, he suddenly heard a system notification.
[The City Lord has successfully expanded Chang 'an's influence to all aspects of the Dong Sheng Divine Continent. You have become the master of the five realms and unified the divine continent. Construction Mission 10.1 completed. You have received 4,000 construction experience points.]
Zhang Dongyun's face lit up.
He had finally succeeded.
Today was like a double blessing.
His previous judgment of this mission was correct.
Defeating Peng Ziling, Abbot Huai Yong, and the others was not really considered conquering the four realms.
Although Peng Ziling, Abbot Huai Yong, and the others were at the helm of the Central Plains, the Western Regions, and other places, they were rooted in the control of the various realms.
Destroying the Origin Six Directions Formation and killing Peng Ziling and the others was a fight between immortals.
Destroying the various Buddhist sects and eliminating their influence was like changing the flag of the king on the city wall.
However, to reach everyone in the countryside and fields, someone in Chang 'an had to continuously take root and go deeper.
Only then could the common people and the cultivators who submitted to Chang 'an know that the master of this world had completely changed.
They knew who their master was.
They knew what their master wanted.
They knew what their master wanted them to do.
Zhang Dongyun had been establishing and presiding over the expansion of the "Star Luo", which was now constantly expanding.
From the Eastern Border to the Central Plains, and then to the entire Dong Sheng Divine Continent.
To go deep into the countryside, the "Star Luo" had to be at least at the township level. It would be even better if it could be at the village level.
It was very difficult.
The land here was simply too vast.
However, Zhang Dongyun still insisted on doing it.
Although it hadn't reached his own expectations, it had already satisfied the system's judgment of completing the mission.
Zhang Dongyun immediately refreshed the system list.
[Construction Mission 10.2 — Invincible City unifies the five realms and dominates the Dong Sheng Divine Continent. Under the City Lord's leadership, the five realms are closer than before, but they still need to be strengthened. City Lord, please establish a trade and commerce system that connects the entire Dong Sheng Divine Continent as soon as possible to further improve the standard of living of the people in the Dong Sheng Divine Continent.]
This …
Master Zhang was a little surprised and couldn't help but scratch his head.
