Chapter 162 – Secrets (1/2)
“Let’s talk about the Snow Palace first. All of you saw that woman from before. She’s Leng Xinran. She’s at the peak of the First Heaven Realm and occupies the first position on the Outer Court Rankings of Snow Palace. According to rumor, she’d cultivated the Snow Palace’s mid-grade Earth Rank cultivation technique, Dark Ice Technique. But now it would seem like it isn’t a rumor but a fact! All of you probably noticed the silver hair she possessed. That isn’t any ordinary silver hair. Every single strand is comparable to a low-grade Profound Rank treasure. So, if you encounter her in the future, you must be extremely cautious against her silver hair!” Yu Heng spoke slowly.
Everyone here felt shocked upon hearing this. Because a single strand of hair was equivalent to a low-grade Profound Rank treasure…. So, all of them felt a wave of terror when they thought about the silver hair that covered her head.
Yang Ye had a solemn expression as well. When her hair was coupled with her mysterious methods of attacks, even Yang Ye didn’t dare say he could definitely defeat Leng Xinran. Moreover, who knew whether he possessed other trump cards?
Everyone hurriedly nodded.
When he saw all of them nod, Yu Heng continued. “Now, we’ll move on to the Flower Palace. That woman who competed with Leng Xinran just now is called Wenren Yue, and just like Leng Xinran, she’s at the peak of the First Heaven Realm and occupied the first position on the Flower Palace’s Outer Court Rankings. However, her true combat strength is unknown. Even though we’ve never investigated her true combat strength, all of you’ve witnessed her ability to rival Leng Xinran, so her strength is definitely extremely formidable. Moreover, rumors say that she possesses a Pseudo Dao Artifact, but this rumor isn’t verified!”
A Pseudo Dao Artifact!Everyone here looked at Yu Heng when they heard this, and their eyes were filled with shock, astonishment, and deep fear.
What was a Pseudo Dao Artifact? Dark Treasures were divided into the Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow Ranks, whereas, Dao Artifacts resided above Heaven Rank Dark Treasures. Not to mention a Dao Artifact, few of them had even laid eyes upon a Heaven Rank or Earth Rank treasure. After all, even the Sword Sect didn’t possess many Earth Rank treasures.
Yet an outer court disciple from the Flower Palace actually might possess a Pseudo Dao Artifact. Even though it was only a Pseudo Dao Artifact, it wasn’t something that any of them could go against!
Yang Ye’s eyelids twitched when he heard the words, Pseudo Dao Artifact. He was extremely clearly aware of a Pseudo Dao Artifact’s might, and he knew that it was something that could be utilized against Spirit Realm Experts! If Wenren Yue utilized it in battle during the Ascension Rankings, then the others could only admit defeat.
Even Yang Ye was helpless before it. Even though he possessed a Pseudo Dao Artifact as well, it was utterly impossible for him to utilize it during the Ascension Rankings. Because if he did, then he would definitely be pursued by the entire Ghost Sect….
With his current strength, he was truly unable to go against a colossus like the Ghost Sect!
“It’s only a possibility!” Yu Heng shook his head and said, “Moreover, even if she possesses one, there’s no need to be too fearful. Because a Pseudo Dao Artifact isn’t something that can be controlled at her current realm of cultivation. Even if she’s able to control it, I presume she’ll have to pay an extremely high price that might even end up costing her life. So, unless she encounters a situation where her life is in danger, she would probably not utilize it!”
The others heaved sighs of relief when they heard this. All of them were top geniuses in the Sword Sect, but they would be overestimating their ability if they thought they were capable of threatening Wenren Yue’s life. Even though it was slightly shameful, it was a fact!
“Now it’s time for the Ghost Sect!” A wisp of coldness appeared on Yu Heng’s face as he said, “All of you’ve seen that Xiu Luo from the Ghost Sect. He’s the disciple from the Ghost Sect that comprehended Slaughter Intent, and I presume all of you possess a slight understanding of his strength by now. But what I want to tell of you is that he’s far more terrifying than all of you’ve imagined!”
“Sword Commanding Elder!” Meanwhile, Qin Feng said, “So what if he has comprehended Slaughter Intent, why would we need to fear him with Senior Sister Murong on our side!?”
Situ Rong glanced at Qin Feng while a wisp of displeasure and rage flashed in his eyes.
Yu Heng shook his head and said, “Murong Yao’s strength is undeniable, and I believe that she wouldn’t lose to Xiu Luo. However, all of you must not be careless because of that. Carelessness will bring death to all of you. Especially you, Murong Yao, there’ll definitely be a battle between you and Xiu Luo in the future, and you must not be careless while in battle with him. Besides that, you must watch out for his Slaughter Intent!”
“Disciple will remember that!” Murong Yao nodded.
Yu Heng nodded, and then he glanced at the others and said, “As for all of you, if you encounter Xiu Luo while Murong Yao isn’t present, then you must not fight him and retreat immediately instead. Understand?”
