Chapter 28: Azure Mountain Range
Chapter 28: Azure Mountain Range
The previously noisy crowd that was cheering for Luan Jian fell silent in an instant.
Their eyes widened in shock and disbelief.
The number one disciple of the inner sect, Senior Brother Luan Jian, was actually defeated by this Su Zhan with a single palm strike!
"That was the Mountain Breaking Palm, a high-grade Profound level technique!"
"He started practicing high-grade martial arts even in the Essence Condensation Realm?"
"Back then, Senior Brother Qi Yang also practiced high-grade martial arts in the Essence Condensation Realm, but he only reached the small achievement. This Su Zhan seems to have already mastered it"
"In that case, his comprehension of martial arts is higher than Senior Brother Qi Yang?"
"No wonder he can reside on White Cloud Peak! Luan Jian is nothing compared to him!"
Those words pierced through Luan Jian's heart like steel needles, making him feel that his internal injuries worsened once again.
"Pu!" He spat out a mouthful of blood, his gaze somewhat dazed as he looked at Su Zhan.
Just one move.
It was just a single move.
And he was defeated!
No wonder, no wonder Su Zhan didn't draw his sword.
Because against him, drawing a sword was completely unnecessary!
Luan Jian felt bitter in his heart as he struggled to get up from the ground and said in a low voice, "Senior Brother Su, I admit defeat. Thank you, Senior Brother Su, for showing mercy."
"I won't kill you because you have no intention of killing me, and besides, we both belong to the same sect. Elder Chen has already spoken, so naturally, I will spare your life." Su Zhan's tone was indifferent.
If he wanted to kill Luan Jian, that palm strike earlier would have been enough to do so. However, it wouldn't benefit him to do so.
His gaze swept over the onlookers, and his voice, transmitted through true qi, spread far and wide. "I am Su Zhan, the Essence Condensation Realm cultivator residing on White Cloud Peak. If any of you have any objections, you can come challenge me today. But after today, if anyone bothers me again, they will bear the consequences!"
This statement resounded clearly in the ears of thousands of inner sect disciples, but none of them dared to respond.
"Elder Chen, let's go. I want to go to the sect's treasure repository to select materials for my lifesource weapon," Su Zhan said to Chen Changfeng.
Although Chen Changfeng had already believed that Su Zhan had a chance to defeat Luan Jian, he hadn't expected it to be so clean and decisive. He was also momentarily stunned. Upon hearing Su Zhan's words, he regained his senses and smiled, nodding in agreement.
However, just as they were about to set off, Qi Yang flew down from White Cloud Peak. He stood on a long sword, dressed in white, and traveled through the air on his sword.
"Junior Brother Su, today you alone received ninety percent of the Spiritual Rain and defeated Luan Jian. Truly impressive!" Qi Yang said with a slight smile, his tone was calm.
Su Zhan replied indifferently, "Get to the point, don't waste words."
Qi Yang's smile froze for a moment, but then he once again put on a magnanimous appearance without any signs of anger. He said, "I'm delighted that Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect has a genius like Junior Brother. Since I joined Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect, I haven't encountered a worthy opponent. Can Junior Brother accept a battle with me once you break through to the Martial Master Realm?"
"Fine." After Su Zhan finished speaking, he turned around and left directly.
Clean and decisive, as if he was answering a trivial matter.
"Thank you for your cooperation, Junior Brother." Qi Yang maintained his smile. Once Chen Changfeng and Su Zhan left, the smile on his face instantly disappeared.
His eyes revealed a chilling killing intent as he stared deeply at Su Zhan. With a flick of his sleeves, he rode his sword back to White Cloud Peak.
"Su Zhan obtained ninety percent of the Spiritual Rain?"
Qi Yang's words echoed in Luan Jian's mind. His pupils suddenly contracted, and he fiercely smashed his fist against the ground.
So, Su Zhan was the mysterious genius who caused the great anomaly!
Even Qi Yang and Wang Hao were nothing in front of Su Zhan, and he went ahead and challenged such a terrifying individual! Like a clown!
If Su Zhan had drawn his sword earlier, the consequences
A sense of horror filled Luan Jian's heart. Then, he remembered something
Turning around, Luan Jian's gaze fell on Zhao Li, who was still in shock.
"Luan, Senior Brother Luan, it's not my fault! I didn't expect Su Zhan to be so abnormal!" Zhao Li quickly explained, sensing the danger.
At this moment, he deeply regretted his actions. He thought Su Zhan was someone who took advantage of connections, but who would have known that he was such a monstrous abnormality!
"You didn't expect it? It seems like you deliberately wanted to kill me!" Luan Jian's voice was filled with endless anger as he threw a punch. "You despicable thing! If it weren't for Senior Brother Su's magnanimity today, I would have been killed by you!"
"No!" Zhao Li exclaimed in fear, but it was already too late.
The powerful true qi contained in that punch exploded into his body, tearing his meridians apart.
His true qi leaked out, and his cultivation was crippled!
Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect's treasure vault.
Su Zhan wandered around for a while, furrowing his eyebrows. He turned to Chen Changfeng and said, "Elder Chen, don't you have any materials of King-grade quality?"
"Well we don't, indeed." Chen Changfeng looked a bit embarrassed.
With Su Zhan's divine physique talent, he was qualified to use not only King-grade materials, but even Divine-grade materials used for forging Divine weapons.
However, Xia Country's national strength was weak, being only a small country. Although Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect was the top sect, the best forging materials they had were probably just top-level Profound-grade materials.
Su Zhan hesitated and said, "I've heard that the materials used to condense a lifesource weapon determine the upper limit of its power. If I use these materials as the main ingredients, won't I regret it later?"
"Not necessarily, Su Zhan. The power of a lifesouce weapon strengthens as a martial artist's cultivation improves. Besides, you can always add materials later and refine it again, although the effect won't be as good as the initial refinement."
Chen Changfeng thought for a moment and hesitated, "If you're willing, you can go to the Azure Mountain Range in Xia Country. It is rumored that there is a fragment of a celestial star there. If you can bring it back as the main material, your lifesource weapon will undoubtedly be extremely powerful!"
"A celestial star fragment The celestial star should be quite huge?"
"Of course not, not the huge kind. We call those celestial meteorites. Celestial star fragments are a special material formed after the explosion of a star at the end of its lifespan. They contain the power of the stars. If it were in that mountain range, it would have been taken by powerful individuals long ago. Why would others have a chance?"
"Actually, this matter is not a secret. Many people know about it. The Azure Mountain Range has been thoroughly searched by those powerful individuals, and countless people have gone there to search but found nothing. That's why many people consider it a rumor. However, according to the records of our Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect, there was indeed a suspected celestial star fragment that fell into the Azure Mountain Range. I choose to believe it."
Chen Changfeng showed a reminiscing expression. "Back then, I also went to search but gained nothing. You can try as well. If you don't find it, we can postpone your breakthrough, and the Sect Master and I will find a way to obtain higher-grade materials for you!"
"The Azure Mountain Range Alright." Su Zhan nodded.
Then, he selected a high-grade Spiritual weapon, a long sword, from the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect's treasure vault and left.
Two days later.
Azure Mountain Range.
Su Zhan's gaze fell upon Su Zhaoyue, who was surrounded by a large group of demonic beasts and barely holding on.
His expression became somewhat peculiar.
What a coincidence!
But Su Zhaoyue, being the abandoned fiance, should have a better configuration in terms of luck than himself, right?
Last time, he followed her and achieved the Great Sun Divine Body. This time
His thoughts raced in his mind, and Su Zhan's lips curled up, revealing a slight smile. In the next moment, he struck out with his sword.
Flowing Fire Sword Technique!
Fire flowed through the sky, and after the flames, all twelve third-order demonic beasts turned into ashes.
