Chapter 35 (1/2)
Eternal Life (永生) Ch. 35
Encountering Fang Qing Xue Again
The Yu’hua School’s true disciples consisted of 108 disciples, each one occupying their own scenic mountain peak surrounded by dense amounts of qi. They looked down from above. Sometimes, these disciples would come down from their peaks to teach outer and inner court disciples, and pick a couple whom they could confide in to become their followers.
True disciples had great status within the school, and personally possessed great strength.
The true disciples were ranked using a three-six-nine grading system. Amidst the 108 true disciples, the most powerful disciple was none other than Hua Tian Dou. In the world of pract.i.tioners, he had the t.i.tle of ‘Child of Heaven’. Compared with the elders of the Ten Immortal Schools, his status was no lower than their status.
It was also rumored that he was the one with the greatest chance of breaking through the ten levels of the Divine Realm and entering the Longevity Realm.
Boundless power and immeasurable techniques.
The ‘Sky Rooster Yang Rope’ was the magic treasure that he had used before he had reached enlightenment, but since reaching the Divine Realm, he had no need for it anymore. Thus, he had loaned it to sister disciple Mo so that she could behead the enemy and receive a ‘Yin Yang Longevity Pellet’ so she could breakthrough. Upon becoming a true disciple, she would join his side.
“I felt that there was suddenly a problem with the ‘Sky Rooster Yang Rope’, and then it lost connection with my spirit, so something definitely happened to it. Who dares to steal my pure Yang treasure!”
Hua Tian Dou paid no attention to Yuan Jian Kong’s words, his face turning ice cold, and the temperature of the air around him decreasing. Upon the ground, a thick layer of ice appeared.
Especially around Mo and the other inner court disciples, as well as the Da’de princes and princesses and Liu Kang, the layer of ice grew extremely thick, completely encasing them together, like a coffin of ice. Their bodily functions, along with the powerful poison inside them, completely froze.
“Ge ge ge, ge ge ge.”
Jade light flashed around Yuan Jian Kong’s body. Teeth chattering, he felt the chill deeply penetrating his body, and as if he had also been frozen stiff.
Even though he wore ling’qi clothes and had cultivated to the ‘G.o.dly Transformation’ level, he was unable to withstand Hua Tian Dou’s casual usage of freezing qi. Just how strong would Hua Tian Dou be when he used Divine Power?
“Senior brother Hua’s ‘Profound Dark Sky Freezing Energy’ would cause even ghosts to freeze over. If it hit me directly, I’m afraid that even if I wore ten layers of ling’qi level clothes, I would still immediately be turned into frozen powder and broken,” said Yuan Jian Kong, frightened by the display of power.
The ‘Profound Dark Sky Freezing Energy’ was the best of the Yu’hua School’s eight Divine Realm Techniques. Just with the wave of a hand, one could freeze the earths and heavens, seal the great rivers, and tower above others.
However, Hua Tian Dou’s current usage of the ‘Profound Dark Sky Freezing Energy’ was not to kill, but to save. By freezing these people’s vitality, he showed his cleverness, and that he had already understood the idea of melting with cleansing fire.
[TL: This last sentence was kinda iffy. It didn’t make sense to me at all]
“Senior brother Hua, our flying swords were all taken. The ‘Pink Prince’ is also gone. It was definitely the ‘Pink Prince’ who took all of them. My ‘Silver Snake Sword’ was also rendered useless by the ‘Six Wishes Yin Mine’. I hope senior brother Hua can help me.”
Yuan Jian Kong was unable to imagine not having his ‘Silver Snake Sword’.
“I must first bring them back to the school. The matter of these ling’qi will be left for later. Yuan Jian Kong, I’ve said this many times, but relying on a ling’qi can only enhance your killing power. It will not have any benefits toward your cultivation. Losing your ‘Silver Snake Sword’, perhaps it will help you breakthrough into the Divine Realm.”
Hua Tian Dou coldly laughed, “However, the ‘Sky Rooster Yang Rope’ is priceless. To think that someone was able to immediately cleanse the spiritual mark I left on it. It definitely, however, isn’t something that someone at the level of the ‘Pink Prince’ could do. Even ten ‘Pink Princes’ wouldn’t be able to do it. I wonder if some of the Devil Sect elders came and took it. I must return and inform the school elders and headmaster! Let us head back for now. I will instruct an elder to make you another flying sword.”
Amid their talking, Hua Tian Dou opened his hand, and a cloud the size of a couple mu flew down from the sky. It picked up the frozen disciples and flew back up into the sky. Stepping onto the cloud, Hua Tian Dou flew away.
[TL: 1 Mu = 614.4/666.66 meters squared according to Wikipedia]
This cloud wasn’t a magic treasure, but rather a usage of Divine Power. By forming divine power into an array, he was able to condense a cloud and ride it.
This suddenly condensed cloud was even more powerful than magic treasures.
‘Soaring Cloud Riding Mist’ was indeed a great Divine Power!
Yuan Jian Kong quickly followed, flying at low alt.i.tude.
