Chapter 434: Chapter 434 - The Descendant Self Guards Its Master, Taking People’s Stuff Without

“Who and where did you guys come from?! How dare you sneak into a place like this? Show yourselves!”

Lan Yu and Gu Linglong’s expression dropped at the Godly Phoenix’s cry. Both of them quickly put on their guard and stared at both Jun Yi and Jin Feiyan’s back.

Liu Yiqing and Yin Li were also extremely surprised.

Their concealment was blown!

The two of them then stepped out of the void.

Both Jun Yi and Jin Feiyan’s expressions turned grim upon seeing those two. They did not expect that they had been tailed by someone all this time!

No one else could go through the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation.

Those two must have followed them through earlier.

“Who are you people?”

Lan Yu asked coldly.

“Tsk, this divine beast is the real deal, alright. I can’t believe it managed to see through my concealment technique.” Yin Li looked at the Godly Phoenix in surprise.

Even a Sage Ruler could not detect his technique. However, the Godly Phoenix had such remarkable perception that it managed to sense their presence up close.

“Liu Yiqing and Yin Li, sky-prides who’re ranked twenty-fifth and twenty-fourth in the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard.” Jun Yi revealed their identities. She had been in the outside world for a while, so she definitely knew a lot more about these people.

“We’re here because we want to see Chu Kuangren.”

Liu Yiqing uttered, stating his motive right at the start.

“Insolent fool!”

Lan Yu yelled with a cold expression. Having snuck into the Black Heaven Sect and now seeking to meet Chu Kuangren, how could she possibly let this slide?

Without another word, she immediately attacked.

A dense Holy Radiant Intent erupted from her punch.

Liu Yiqing’s pupils shrank. ‘The power of that punch is on par with the top thirty sky-prides on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard.’

‘How can such a sky-pride exist inside the Black Heaven Sect?!’

“Silver-haired woman…”

“Rumour has it that Chu Kuangren has a Winged Human follower by his side. I suppose that’s her, then. I can’t believe she’s this powerful.”

Liu Yiqing did not dare to let his guard down, and he channeled his spiritual power to unleash a punch. His vigorous surging spiritual power gathered in the air and formed a gigantic palm sign.

When the two energies collided, the impact pushed Lan Yu and Liu Yiqing back.

Meanwhile, Yin Li immediately turned his figure into a black shadow and disappeared upon diving into a shaded area.

His goal was clear.

That was to enter the Daoist Palace and find Chu Kuangren!

“Hmph, you dare disturb my brother’s closed door-meditation? Get out of my sight.”

The others may not be able to find Yin Li, but the Godly Phoenix possessed extremely keen senses. Its golden eyes darted back and forth into the shadows.

It did not take her long before she found Yin Li and immediately attacked him.

Golden flames blasted from her mouth.

The Godly Phoenix today was said to be the strongest being inside the Black Heaven Sect as her flames could burn even a Great Sage to death!

Slightly horrified, Yin Li kept on dodging the flames in the shadows.

Perhaps it was because of the concern that the area was the Towering Heavenly Palace, the Godly Phoenix did not dare to go all out in fear of disturbing Chu Kuangren.

However, that gave Yin Li the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

Yin Li searched the Towering Heavenly Palace while he dodged the Godly Phoenix’s flames, and soon, he found Chu Kuangren’s closed-door meditation location.

It was because that location was the only one with seals and restricting barriers placed around it.

Hence, that must be where Chu Kuangren was.

He then dashed towards that house with curiosity in his eyes. Despite his dissatisfaction towards Chu Kuangren, he was curious about what made the latter so special to have garnered so much fame that the outside world still remembered him until this day.

“Let me see who you truly are.” Yin Li approached the house and raised his hand with spiritual power gathered around it, preparing to break through the restriction barriers.

However, a surge of sword qi immediately swept out like a violent wind.

It was so powerful that even Yin Li was forced back dozens of meters. He looked towards that room with surprise.

“Isn’t Chu Kuangren restrained by the Heavenly Punishment Seal? Where did this sword qi come from? Has he managed to unlock the seal?!”

“That’s impossible… No one has ever done it…”

Lan Yu, Liu Yiqing, and the others[1], who were in the middle of the fight, all looked towards the sword qi curiously. They were surprised.

“This sword qi… It’s the Sect Leader. Has he recovered his full strength?!”

Jin Feiyan was excited.

The others felt the same, too.

Under everyone’s gaze, a gorgeous white jade sword broke through the room’s window and flew out. It then placed itself before the door of that room. Surges of sword qi swirled around that sword. It was as if it was guarding the room against a million-strong army.

“Boundary Emperor Weapon! It’s a Boundary Emperor Weapon with a mind of its own!”

“This must be the sword that Chu Kuangren has infused with a sword soul. The sword that’s ranked number one in the Hundred Swords Spectrum, the Descendant Self Sword!”

Yin Li looked at the Descendant Self Sword with passion in his eyes.

It was the best sword in the world.

“That sword qi was unleashed by this Descendant Self Sword on its own. What a great sword. I can’t believe it even has the will to protect its own master. If this sword grows in the future, it can rival or even exceed the strength of most Emperor Weapons!” Yin Li exclaimed excitedly. He could imagine himself obtaining that sword and decimating everyone with it.

Without another word, his figure immediately darted forwards and grabbed the Descendant Self Sword.

However, surges of sword qi swirled and shot out from the Descendant Sword!

As if he was prepared for something like this, Yin Li’s figure appeared and disappeared at random. He was using some weird technique to dodge the incoming attacks.

None of the streaks of sword qi that filled the air managed to hit him.

Soon, Yin Li had come before the Descendant Self Sword. With a dense surge of spiritual power between his fingers, he reached out and grabbed the sword’s handle.

A surge of sword qi erupted from the Descendant Self Sword, attempting to resist Yin Li’s palm.

A battle soon broke between a person and a sword. Surges of sword qi and spiritual power intertwined and formed a horrifying energy field around them.

The ground in the surrounding area soon cracked and began to cave in.

“Stop it.”

Jin Feiyan and Jun Yi rushed out towards him.

As soon as both their swords clashed, a sword formation containing the power of flames and water formed. A red and blue colored sword ray then unleashed towards Yin Li.

“Hmph, you want to stop me? Too bad!”

Yin Li waved his sleeves, and a Black Mantle suddenly appeared in mid-air, repelling all the sword qi away.

That Black Mantle was a powerful Boundary Emperor Weapon.

It was also Yin Li’s greatest Opportunity of Fortune as well.

No matter how remarkable the Descendant Self Sword was, it still could not unleash its full strength without being controlled by someone.

The sword qi gradually lost against Yin Li’s palm.

Everyone looked on anxiously from the side.

That was Chu Kuangren’s personal sword!

They could never allow that sword to be tainted by someone else’s hand.

“Let me through!”

The Godly Phoenix unleashed a golden fireball that landed on the Black Mantle, but it still could not break through it.

After all, that was a Boundary Emperor Weapon. Even a Sage Ruler could not destroy it.

One meter, half a meter, a quarter of a meter… n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Yin Li’s hand got closer and closer towards the Descendant Self Sword.

“Taking other people’s stuff without permission is quite rude, you know.”

At this moment, an apathetic voice suddenly came out from inside the room.

Then, the surrounding spiritual qi surged and interweaved into countless mysterious runes in the void, forming a huge golden sword!

In an instant, an overpowering Sword-based Daoist Rhyme raged everywhere like a crashing tide, spreading so far that all the cultivators in the Black Heaven Sect could feel it.

At the sword mountain far away, the sounds of a thousand swords clanging could be heard.

Within the few cottages, the Sages opened their eyes.

A great golden runic sword fell from the air along with a domineering force and cut through the Black Mantle!

Unable to bear the impact of that terrifying force, Yin Li was sent flying out of the Daoist Palace before his body landed on the ground, dripping with blood.

The sudden change of events attracted everyone’s attention.

Everyone looked towards that room.

Lan Yu, Gu Linglong, and others got even more excited.

[1] Lan Yu’s name was mentioned twice, so it was assumed to be a typo. To fit the context, it was changed to mention “others”
