Chapter 1109: Chapter 610 Sword Wipeout Thunder Sound_2 Chapter 1109: Chapter 610 Sword Wipeout Thunder Sound_2 Now that Mo Douguang was here, Chen Mobai could finally leave with peace of mind.
“During this past year, Junior Brother Chen has worked hard.”
When it was time to leave, Nu Jiang came to see him off and earnestly thanked him. He even specially prepared a peck of pearls as a thank-you gift.
These were a specialty of Yun Meng Ze, containing water spirit qi of the purest essence. In the Eastern Wilderness, they were equivalent to spirit stones; moreover, due to the gentle nature of their spiritual energy, easy to absorb, they were more precious than spirit stones in the eyes of cultivators with specific attributes in their cultivation techniques.
The peck of pearls from Nu Jiang were naturally of the highest intermediate grade, each one equivalent to a top-grade spirit stone.
After declining twice, Chen Mobai naturally accepted them as a matter of course.
When he stowed them away in his storage bag, he counted them with his divine sense, a total of eighty-eight, a very auspicious number indeed.
“Farewell, my three senior brothers!”
Chen Mobai laughed heartily with Nu Jiang, Mo Douguang, and Fu Zongjue, and then, along with Zhuo Ming and Jiang Zongheng, they entered the central grand hall of Wind Rain Hamlet.
This was one of the only two medium transporting formations in the Eastern Wilderness.
Leading them was Ji Guanhai, a true disciple of Nu Jiang, who explained in detail to Chen Mobai the functions of this teleportation array.
“Uncle-Master Chen, in theory, this medium transporting formation can connect to any small teleportation array of the border countries near Yun Meng Ze.”
The words from Ji Guanhai surprised Chen Mobai slightly. Wasn’t this to say that through Wind Rain Hamlet’s teleportation array, the Five Elements Sect could have direct access to the territory of the Divine Wood Sect?
“However, this requires the reception of the small teleportation array on the other side. The Nascent Soul ancestors are all aware of this matter, and when they divided the families back then, it was agreed that only the border fang markets of Rain Country and Yun Country would be open to this medium transporting formation. This was also a demand by Ancestor Zhou Shengqing back in the day, as it could save a lot of transportation time by utilizing this medium transporting formation.”
After hearing Ji Guanhai’s explanation, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but nod slightly.
“Please choose your destination, Uncle-Master Chen!”
After the introduction, Ji Guanhai pointed to a large map hanging on the wall, which depicted the whole territory of the Eastern Wilderness. Within Rain Country and Yun Country, there were six red dots, marking the fang markets to which they could choose to directly teleport.
“Then let’s go to Southstream Market!”
Seeing the familiar name, Chen Mobai chose it immediately, his own Land of Dragon Prosperity, and then stepped into the medium transporting formation with his two disciples.
The rest of the Foundation Establishment practitioners he had brought along, including Ding Ying, were left behind in Yun Meng Ze, waiting for the end of this massive surge of demonic beasts before returning.
After hearing his selection, Ji Guanhai immediately nodded, placing a piece of void stone into a specific slot.
Soon, the silver radiance began to light up, enveloping Chen Mobai and his two disciples, and transporting them toward Southstream Market.
…
In the skies above Green Light Island!
Xue Ting probed into her storage bag with her divine sense, wanting to see if she had any talismans or elixirs left. Her intense desire to survive, despite her spiritual power being down to its last 10%, and her flying sword cracked with a crevice, kept her valiantly battling with two rank-2 demonic beasts.
But at this moment, she was truly at her wits’ end.
With a clang! Her flying sword, after taking yet another blow from a wind blade and thunderous strike, finally broke apart completely.
Her pallid cheeks showed a look of desperation as she consumed her last pill that restored spiritual power. Then, with great care, she took out a red ribbon from around her neck.
Tied to the red ribbon was a talisman.
It was a gift from Chen Mobai when Xue Ting had completed her studies at Xiao Nanshan and was leaving.
An intermediate-grade, rank-2 Purple Fire Sword Talisman.
She had always kept this talisman as her most precious treasure, and she would never have used it if she hadn’t found herself completely exhausted and facing death.
“Sect Master Chen, assist me!”
After silently invoking the name, Xue Ting followed the method etched in her memory by Chen Mobai, transforming her spiritual power to activate the Purple Fire Sword Talisman.
In the midst of roaring waves, the rank-2 demonic beast in the water, with its gaping maw, leaped high, poised to swallow the frail girl whole.
A strand of purple light ignited within Xue Ting’s palm, which in the next instant, burst into a dazzling purple flame. Like a column of purple fire connecting heaven and earth, it sliced into the open mouth of the rank-2 strange fish.
With a bang!
The demonic beast, whose scales had been impervious to Xue Ting’s flying sword, exploded into pieces under the Purple Fire Sword Talisman, turning into a cloud of blood and flesh.
These remnants were alight with a purple glow, quickly giving off the scent of roasted fish before turning charred black, and by the time they fell to the water’s surface, they had already become heaps upon heaps of ash.
Merely a single talisman had killed a Rank-2 demonic beast!
Upon seeing this, Xue Ting’s respect and awe for Chen Mobai surged like a towering mountain. After all, when she received this talisman, Sect Master Chen had not yet reached Core Formation.
Yet, even the talisman refined by him in the Foundation Building Realm was still capable of instantly killing a Rank-2 demonic beast, which truly attested to his reputation as an unparalleled genius in the Sword Dao!
However, death was still imminent.
After using this cherished Sword Talisman she had kept for over twenty years, the last of the spiritual power in Xue Ting’s Dantian Qi Sea was depleted.
If she hadn’t taken an elixir earlier that was gradually restoring her strength, she’d probably be unable to fly by now, and would have fallen into the water.
A fierce shout echoed as she lifted her head to see a Rank-2 Black Plague Bird nearby, seemingly enraged by the death of its companion.
But it also feared that Xue Ting might have a second talisman just as powerful, so it did not rashly approach. Instead, it used its Innate Divine Ability again, condensing Wind Thunder into a green blade.
Amidst the piercing howl, the green blades that the Black Plague Bird slashed with its wings were already crossing through the air towards Xue Ting.
I hope in my next life, I can become a disciple of Sect Master Chen!
In the moments before her death, this was the wish that emerged in Xue Ting’s mind.
A faint smile appeared on her lips, her eyes closed as she prepared to face her own demise.
Whirl!
Just then, the sound of water coalescing rang in her ears, followed by the collision of two streams of spiritual power, as a powerful current pushed Xue Ting away.
And soon, a surge of water rose to support Xue Ting’s backward-falling body.
“Where did you get this Sword Talisman?”
A clear and melodious voice sounded by Xue Ting’s ear. She opened her eyes and saw a young girl in a long dress, with a delicate jade belt tied around her waist, standing in mid-air, her figure as graceful and fluid as water.
She extended her right hand and used the Water Controlling Technique, protecting Xue Ting within a Water Elemental Shield.
“It was bestowed upon me by Sect Master Chen of your sect.”
In such a dire situation, Xue Ting naturally clung to this last straw. Seeing the girl with bright, spiritual eyes remaining silent, she immediately recounted her experience of learning Fire Spirit Rice planting at Xiao Nanshan before her Foundation Establishment.
“Do you know Senior Sister Zhuo?”
The delicate girl asked a question, to which Xue Ting nodded, indicating that when she was studying on South Mountain, Chen Mobai was preoccupied with secluded cultivation, and it was mostly Zhuo Ming who imparted the skills to her as they became close friends.
“Then you must know how many layers there are in Senior Sister Zhuo’s wine cellar, right?”
“When I left, Senior Sister Zhuo had just dug down to the third layer. When I came over to your sect to present a gift during Sect Master Chen’s Core Formation ceremony, I spoke with Senior Sister Zhuo, and she said that she had dug down to the sixth layer, but I’m not quite sure how many there are now.”
After hearing Xue Ting’s response, the delicate girl finally nodded.
At that moment, the Rank-2 Black Plague Bird launched another Wind Thunder Green Blade, but Xue Ting’s body was already being taken by the young girl through the defense shield of Green Light Island and into the protection range of the Large Formation.
With a bang, the demonic beast’s attack was shattered.
Afterward, as the Black Plague Bird hesitantly hovered above Green Light Island, a pure and brilliant beam of Sacred Tree Divine Light shot into the sky, accurately predicting its flight path and directly vaporizing the Rank-2 demonic beast into a mist of blood.
“Thank you for your help, Senior Sister. May I ask your honorable name?”
Though Xue Ting was weak, she still retained her manners and gave a respectful nod to the spiritual and delicate girl.
“My name is Gu Yan. If we’re talking about the time of Foundation Establishment, you can call me Junior Sister.”
Gu Yan gently bowed in return.
She too had once served alongside Chen Mobai and happened to recognize the Purple Fire Sword Talisman.
