Chapter 756: Woman of Unknown Origins

Afterwards, Nangong Qiong and Xiao Chen left, not knowing that a pair of gemlike eyes in the clouds three kilometers above had seen everything that happened.

“Sou!”

The Little Heavenly Monkey, the absolute genius of the Fiend Domain’s Giant Ape Race, jumped from the clouds and landed gently on the ground.

When he saw the spiderweb-like fissures on the ground, his messy hair and unkempt face revealed a grave expression.

“Unexpectedly, this fellow’s Myriad Heaven Divine Fist is much stronger than those of the young experts of the Deity Race. There is also that girl. If I am right, she should be from a hidden Sovereign Clan or something like that.”

Feng raised his head and looked at the backs of the two people who had left. The corners of his mouth quirked up as he said, “However, this is good as well. It is simply too boring to snatch away the pieces of the Great Roc Spreading Wings Painting from those trashes of the six major factions.

“However, I will have to delay my promise to First Uncle for a bit.” After pushing off the ground, Feng instantly shot forward by a kilometer.

There was no wind or shock waves, no sound given off as Feng vanished from this place.

Three days later, Xiao Chen and Nangong Qiong arrived at the gates of the Eternal Heavenly Sword School located at the bottom of a mountain.

That was a mountain range filled with rising and falling silhouettes. Spiritual fog permeated the mountain range. A fresh smell entered the nose when one took a deep breath, instantly making them feel comfortable.

Xiao Chen raised his head and saw indistinct spiritual lights on several of the mountain peaks forming a multicolored ring of lights.

The light ring hid within the fog, its occasional appearances giving it an air of mystery.

Xiao Chen looked over and said, “I did not expect this Eternal Heavenly Sword School to have ten or so Rank 4 Spirit Veins.”

Rank 4 Spirit Veins were also known as Peak Grade Spirit Veins, able to produce Superior Grade Spirit Stones. With ten Rank 4 Spirit Veins, the amount of Superior Grade Spirit Stones harvested would be an enormous sum.

Nangong Qiong smiled and said, “Your worldview is extremely limited. Of these ten Peak Grade Spirit Veins, only the one under the main peak is of good quality.

“Such a large Rank 8 sect and they do not even have a Holy grade Spirit Vein. The Eternal Heavenly Sword School is only so-so.”

There was a vast drill ground at the foot of the mountain. More than a thousand Eternal Heavenly Sword School inner sect disciples practiced the Thunder Light Fleeing Shadows Sword.

Small sparks of electricity leaped around their swords. As they swung their sword lights, they directed the thunderclouds, which materialized from the state of thunder, above their heads.

With more than a thousand disciples drilling the same Sword Technique and the same state, every move easily caused winds to blow, thunder to rumble, and lightning to flash.

The scene looked vast and mighty, giving off a strong sense of suppression.

At this moment, even if a Martial Sage wanted to come and cause trouble, he would fail miserably, beaten back without fail.

Nangong Qiong looked at the drill grounds and the mighty group of more than a thousand inner sect disciples. Then she revealed a deep, meaningful smile and said, “A good display of Thunder Light Fleeing Shadows Sword. Unfortunately, the only thing worth praising in this Eternal Heavenly Sword School does not belong to it.”

As Xiao Chen looked at this girl, a strange light flashed in his eyes. This Nangong Qiong apparently had an extraordinary background. Unexpectedly, she also knew that the Thunder Emperor created Thunder Light Fleeing Shadows Sword.

When Ao Jiao, in the Immortal Spirit Ring, saw the huge sculpture of the Eternal Heavenly Sword Sage on the drill ground, her face froze. She had not expected that Eternal Heavenly Sword Sage to be this person.

Little Ao Jiao, do you recognize who the Eternal Heavenly Sword Sage is?

Ao Jiao’s voice seemed rather cold as she replied, This person came to the Kunlun Realm together with the Thunder Emperor. Sang Mu cared for him a lot, had a deep friendship with him. Why would he claim all the Martial Techniques that Sang Mu created as his own for no reason?

“Mo Lingtian is here. You know what to say later, right?” Nangong Qiong said suddenly.

Xiao Chen stood outside the gates and looked over. He saw Mo Lingtian at the head of a group of people passing through the vast drill grounds, making for the two of them.

Mo Lingtian must have made preparations long ago and sent people to watch for Xiao Chen at the bottom of the mountain. Before the two entered the gates, he had already come out.

After exiting the gates, Mo Lingtian led the group of people to Xiao Chen. There was no expression on his handsome face as he said casually, “You are here!”

Between Mo Lingtian’s words and the superior attitude he adopted, he put on a vivid performance of condescension as if he was giving Xiao Chen a lot of face by allowing him to come.

Xiao Chen did not care about this. He nodded nonchalantly and sized up the five old men around Mo Lingtian.

The five old men all had vast auras. They were all half-Sages who had formed Heavenly Sage Laws, just slightly weaker than Wu Yuankai.

“Who is she? I seem to recall that I did not say you could bring anyone else.”

Mo Lingtian’s expression changed when he saw Nangong Qiong behind Xiao Chen. He appeared extremely displeased as he spoke.

Xiao Chen and Nangong Qiong had prepared for this long ago. He smiled faintly and said, “This is a friend that came from the Sky Dome Realm with me. Her strength is similar to mine. With her along, I will definitely be able to help you better.

Mo Lingtian snorted coldly as he sized up Nangong Qiong with a contemplative gaze. He said coldly, “Xiao Chen, you overestimate yourself. Of similar strength to you? Do you think you are some kind of expert?

“What do you think I’m bringing you to do, that you can just bring anyone you want? I already made a big exception by bringing you, yet you arrogantly made your own decision to bring someone.”

Xiao Chen had to suppress the urge to scold Mo Lingtian, to say he was not a thug hired free of charge to be ordered to come. Moreover, his speaking to Xiao Chen this way was deserving of a good spanking. This Mo Lingtian was simply an arrogant fool of the worst kind.

Just as Xiao Chen could no longer endure, Nangong Qiong stepped forward and smiled faintly, revealing some of her noble aura.

Mo Lingtian’s expression changed slightly as he said, “A half-Sage…I nearly saw wrong. If you can withstand a palm strike from me, I can bring you along.”

After speaking, Mo Lingtian shot out his right hand. Electricity leaped around on his palm as he sent a palm strike containing the might of thunder at Nangong Qiong.

Mo Lingtian attacked in the time it took for a spark to fly, without giving any warning. However, Nangong Qiong did not show any panic, calmly sending out a palm strike as well.

“Bang!”

The two palms collided, and a strong wind immediately surged out, messing up the clothes of the bystanders. The wind also kicked up the dirt on the ground, creating a dust cloud.

Mo Lingtian slowly staggered back from the dust cloud, nearly falling over as he took unsteady steps.

At the crucial moment, Xiao Chen noticed the image of a pagoda appearing around Mo Lingtian’s body. Mo Lingtian released it instantly, and it shrank back into his dantian.

The instant the pagoda appeared, Mo Lingtian immediately stabilized himself. When the dust cloud scattered, his expression looked at ease as if he had retreated casually.

A look of shock flashed in Mo Lingtian’s eyes. He said nonchalantly, “Not bad. You are able to block my palm strike, which used fifty percent of my strength, with your full power. You are qualified to come with me.”

Lingtian, this woman is of unknown origins. Should this be reconsidered? an old man projected his voice over to Mo Lingtian in secret.

Hehe! It’s not a problem. Her full-power strike is only that powerful. I already refined the Sage Grade pagoda. Suppressing these two people will be easy.

Mo Lingtian appeared extremely confident. He continued saying, After the matter is over, directly kill Xiao Chen and keep the woman. She is still useful.

After thinking about it, the five old men concluded that this was not a big problem, either. Without even having to include Mo Lingtian, with the five of them working together, these two people should not be able to do anything.

Nangong Qiong, how much of your power did you use earlier? Xiao Chen secretly projected his voice over to her.

She smiled craftily and likewise replied, About thirty or forty percent.

Xiao Chen wondered what Mo Lingtian would think if he heard what Nangong Qiong said. The palm strike that he thought was full-powered was merely thirty or forty percent of Nangong Qiong’s strength.

At this moment, similar scenes happened at the bases of all six Rank 8 major factions in Hunluo Province. The top inheritors of the various sects all led a few half-Sage Elders in a grand departure.

---

In Hunluo City, Xuan Yu, Xiao Bai, and the others gathered at a restaurant near the Flourishing Heaven Pavilion to discuss the same matter.

Aside from the initial four people Xiao Chen had seen, there was an additional middle-aged man there. His cultivation was deep, and he had a stern and grave expression.

Xuan Yu said respectfully to this person, “Second Uncle, the Heavenly Roc Race’s people should have moved out already.”

The middle-aged man nodded and said, “The Heavenly Roc Race put in a lot of effort this time for the sake of opening the Star Grave Palace. They activated many of the experts in their race.”

Jiang Zimo said sullenly, “The Heavenly Roc King is one of the top ten Sovereign Fiend Emperors in the history of the Fiend Domain since the Ancient Era. His grave palace is bound to be perilous. If we are not careful, we will end up dying.”

The middle-aged man said, “The grave palace itself is not that perilous. The danger comes from the cultivators from the various places that heard the news. However, to obtain the pieces of the Great Roc Spreading Wings Painting and the other possible treasures in the grave palace, this danger is worth bearing.”

After the group discussed further, they all separated to make their final preparations.

When only the middle-aged man and Xuan Yu remained in the room, the middle-aged man looked at Xuan Yu and smiled. “I did not expect that you would be able to pull Xiao Bai into this. I heard that the Spirit Fox King looks favorably upon Xiao Bai and intends to accept her as his goddaughter.

“If you can obtain this girl, that will be equal to having a relation to the Spirit Fox King. Your future will be unlimited. Our Xuan Clan’s position in the Spirit Fox Race will be even firmer.”

Feeling very pleased, Xuan Yu smiled. “She is just a girl. I can manage that easily. She comprehended the Sword Heart and cultivates a mysterious Cultivation Technique. Her appearance also rivals that of the queen when she was young.

“If I can obtain her, not only will the Spirit Fox King look at me in a new light, but there will also be many more benefits. It might even be possible for me to become the next Spirit Fox King.”

---

At the foot of the mountain, Xiao Chen finally found out from Mo Lingtian what exactly this was about.

The Heavenly Roc King of the Fiend Domain’s Heavenly Roc Race had been a remarkably exceptional Sovereign Fiend Emperor. Before he died, he infused all his life’s comprehensions into a Great Roc Spreading Wings Painting.

While the Heavenly Roc King was still alive, he had found a star and directly refined it into a palace. After he died, it became his grave palace.

Hence, the Great Roc Spreading Wings Painting was left in this grave palace. However, when the Great Roc Spreading Wings Painting just formed, all the experts of the Heavenly Roc Race fought and killed each other for the sake of this painting.

This conflict was easy to understand. If one could obtain all the comprehensions of a Sovereign Fiend Emperor, it would be a great help to one’s cultivation, be it now or even in the future.

During the fight, the Great Roc Spreading Wings Painting got ripped into countless pieces. The instant the painting tore, the horrific energy that burst out had instantly blasted the peak Martial Sages of the Heavenly Roc Race fighting for it into dust.
