The overbearing sword cry that reached the heavens, shook the entire sky and earth.

A straight ray of white sword beam appeared, ripping apart the atmosphere, the sharp and intense sword beam instantly breaking through the fire red True Power of the mute servant, causing his face to change instantly, his hand retracting back quickly.

Although the Blind Chord Old Man was blind in the eyes, but he could see the dangerous situation his mute servant was in, he pulled on the Erhu string in his hand, causing a terribly disgusting noise to ring.

At this moment the True Power around Crane’s body roused up to its maximum, that wave of noise, rushed towards him, rippling out a transparent layer.

Sound type martial artists disadvantages were clearly seen here, although the radius was huge for their techniques, but their destructive power was weak compared to the other martial techniques.

But his disturbance, gave the mute servant the opportunity to fight.

The mute servant raised his left palm like a blade, slashed towards Crane, unleashing a fiery red palm aura, which flew out like a fire red blade beam, cutting towards Crane!

Facing the shockingly overbearing white sword beam, it was like he did not see it at all, and used his life to fight against it.

A biting cold aura flashed across Crane’s eyes, the sword body swung, his footsteps suddenly became erratic and complicated. Suddenly, Crane’s body, split into two, the two split into four, the four split into eight….

In the blink of an eye, the number of human figures flickering in front of the mute servant, totalled up to over a dozen Cranes.

This was…

The mute servant’s eyes opened wide in panic, in front of him were 16 of the same Cranes, and he could not tell who was the real one.

[Thousand Crane Clones]!

It was one of the same absolute skills from the Crane Sect that was lost for a long time. Without the Crane Body Energy, Thousand Crane Clones was only able to create two clones, and the battle prowess was extremely pitiful. But the current Crane could create up to 16 clones in a breath, this technique’s power suddenly exploded out!

All the Cranes got closer and stood in front of the mute servant, and he finally had panic in his eyes.

Which was the real one?

What should I do?

Suddenly, he was at a loss, and did not know what to do.

Suddenly, his body froze, the sword tip had quietly came up from behind him, and as long as the opponent released a bit of True Power, his spine would crumble, no matter how strong he was.

“We surrender. Do not kill him.” Blind Chord Old Man’s voice was hoarse, as he spoke suddenly. Dong, he threw the Erhu and the Erhu bow onto the ground.

Surrender?

Xie Qing, Yin Tian, Hu Xing all thought they heard wrong, Blind Chord Old Man was actually surrendering!

Wait a minute…

They suddenly realized, Crane, by himself, actually….actually defeated Blind Chord Old Man and the mute servant. The both of them! It was as though they were struck by lightning, as they stood there dumbstruck, eyes and mouth wide opened as they looked at Crane.

Xie Qing’s eyes held reveration, someone who was the same as him that trained in sword techniques, Crane was so strong that it was as though he had reached the peak limit! So strong, he really is so strong…

Yin Tian and Hu Xing looked at each other, then looked at Crane, their gaze filled with respect. They did not even react in the battle, and when it had already ended, they did not get the chance to show their powers.

From where, did this exceptional sword user come from?

It was as though they were looking at a legend, that appeared in front of them.

Blind Chord Old Man, the Sorrowful Blind Chord, an expert from the Heaven Road List, was actually defeated in a few moves.

“Can I ask, what sect martial techniques is that?” Blind Chord Old Man’s face was calm, even though he had decided to surrender, people had to give it to him, his calm demeanor.

“Heaven Crane Constellation’s Crane Sect martial techniques.” Crane said slowly, his expression was calm, although his back was already drenched in sweat, Thousand Crane Clones’ power was definitely strong, but the consumption of True Power was also equally huge, and caused his True Power to immediately deplete.

This situation was definitely dangerous, if the Thousand Crane Clones did not defeat the opponent, he would have placed himself in danger.

But, Crane’s face did not have the slightest change, as he slowly kept the ancient sword.

“Crane Sect?” Blind Chord Old Man was taken aback, but he immediately nodded: “According to what I heard, it had declined for over a hundred of years. Seems like the Heavenly Crane Constellation, will once again rise.”

The surprise on Yin Tian and Hu Xing’s faces became stronger.

Heavenly Crane Constellation was also a small constellation, and compared to the Corvus Constellation, its position was even lower. In many people’s eyes, the shut off and declined Heavenly Crane Constellation was not much different than the side planets.

The entire Heaven’s Road had different levels of ranking.

The 12 Ecliptic Palaces, were the largest constellations, even if they withered out, a dead camel will always be bigger than a horse. These huge entities, and those popular and strong constellations, like the Leo Constellation, possessed reliable strength, and all of them had devastating power that could shake the Heaven’s Road.

The others would be the 10 Equatorial Palace Halls. Cetus Constellation, Monoceros Constellation, Serpens Constellation, Heavenly Eagle Constellation, all these strong constellations, were tyrants of their own area. For example the Ophiuchus Constellation, which was previously a powerhouse of the Ecliptic plane, although it had declined, had managed to earn a place in the 10 Equatorial Palace Halls.

Below that, there were the 5 Polar Domains that included the Ursa Minor Constellation, the Ursa Major Constellation, Cepheus Constellation, Cassiopeia Constellation and Draco Constellation. These 5 constellations, although they were weaker than the 10 Equatorial Palace Halls by a level, but they were still formidable constellations. Cepheus and Cassiopeia Constellation had collaborated to form the Immortal Martial, which led them to have a jump in level, which entitled them the nickname of the Freaks Equal to the 12 Ecliptic Palaces.

Northern Sky’s 19 Constellations were Heaven Road’s core power, Hercules Constellation and Camelopardalis Constellation led the 19 Constellations. Immortal Constellation was considered one of them, although it was used to fill the gap. All these years with the qualifications it had in the Northern Sky, Immortal Constellation was always the center of controversy, as they were not powerful enough.

Southern Sky’s 42 constellations, had the largest number of constellations, their standards were not equal, with strong martial artists comparable to Northern Sky intermingled with weak and withered constellations that were almost as bad as the borderline constellations.

The 12 Ecliptic Palaces, 10 Equatorial Palace Halls, 5 Polar Domains, Northern Sky’s 19 Continents and the Southern Sky’s 42 constellations, these constituted the different ranks and names of the heaven road’s 88 constellations.

(TN: I used to write the 十三黄道星座 – thirteen constellations of the Ecliptic plane, but it seems that was a typo by the author. Sorry guys!)

These were the most current constellations, while those that had appeared in history before, but were currently extinct, were even more. For example the famous Big Cloud Constellation and Small Cloud Constellation, or the murderous Hell Dog Constellation that became famous through its violence and murders.
