Book 7, Chapter 1: Paradise
The sky above Ten Thousand Swords Mountain was always clear and idyllic
“Always” was really always Without Ten Thousand Swords Mountain’s permission, rain would never fall from the sky
And if Ten Thousand Swords Mountain needed rain, then the sky wouldn’t dare withhold a single drop
The Boundless Sect’s disciples would directly form clouds in the sky above the mountain as needed and then herd them to the desired peak, upon which a storm would descend
These disciples were known as Cloud-Herding Disciples
“Le Qing! Bring those clouds of yours over here for a bit We need so a white robe while floating on top of three clouds called out to another fellow disciple Froht Shaking Realm However, despite his advanced cultivation, he was still just a common Outer Court disciple
And he was not the only one
Off in the distance, floating near another group of clouds, there was another young Boundless Sect disciple That disciple was holding a long red whip in his hand as he drove the clouds through the sky As the clouds an to disperse torrents of rain without dispersing
The cultivator responsible for herding the clouds together was a Light Shaking Realm cultivator who had already formed four Lotus Platforms; even so, he held no real position of power in the Boundless Sect
“Co drove the dozens of clouds under his control towards the other cultivator’s direction, intent on ht, he barked, “Up!”
All of the clouds sian to unleash rain
The rain precisely landed on Ten Thousand Mountain’s peaks This rain was no ordinary rain either — it was iy, and the cloudherds had also infused them with special ated the ground, bringing forth abundant vegetation The unique flowers, herbs, and plants that grew on the side of the rew bountifully
Most hu them from others, but the Boundless Sect had developed a system that allowed them to farm and procure these resources all on their own At this point, the preliminary foundations of that syste the Boundless Sect to continue expanding
“The rainfall has lasted for three counts Stop the rain!” Le Qing called out while preciselyhow much rain had fallen With a wave of his hand, the clouds evaporated away as they slowly disappeared
“What a pity,” sighed the other disciple, whose na asked quizzically
“The medicine in the clouds They always disappear before we can cohed “They are of this world in the first place They will re-form and return soon”
“Maybe not The continent is very large, and it wouldn’t be surprising if more than half of this special rain fell so chuckled “So what? Are you going to be this selfish over just a little bit of medicine?”
Jin Fan rubbed his head “I come from a poor family, where even steamed buns needed to be carefully split before we could eat theo to waste If aste some today and some e a we can do about it Ten Thousand Swords Mountain is not isolated fro replied, “The only possible solution would be to create an isolated void, place the entire y to enter, not exit”
Jin Fan’s eyes glittered when he heard this “Is that possible?”
Le Qing shook his head “No That would be far too difficult to do Carving out another cave or constructing another palace would be just as hard as for an entirely new realm Even Ulti so”
Jin Fan had the utmost faith in their Sect Master “So would Sect Master be able to do it?”
“Sect Master?” Le Qing wanted to say that even their Sect Master would have a hard ti so To accomplish such a feat, their comprehension of just spatial Method Power needed to be extre However, his high respect for Su Chen ht out loud
Suddenly, at thatsound suddenly burst forth
The two of theiant hole had mysteriously appeared in the sky above them
The hole was pitch black, and it was iiant creature had opened its gaping maw — that was how sinister the darkness was
Despite its already large size, this hole rapidly expanded, as if it were trying to devour the entire world Soon enough, it completely encapsulated Ten Thousand Swords Mountain
This scared the two disciples quite badly
What was going on?
Had so demon torn down the barriers between realms and invaded their realm?
In that ination
Obviously, they were not the main characters of this story, because the “deht up devour the entire world around them Even these two innocent cloudherds were not spared
“AH!!!”
The two of them cried out in despair, but it was useless They felt the world around them spin wildly as a wave of dizziness overcame them
But no matter how dizzy they becah the air countless ti to a stop Only then did they realize that they were actually coy was still revolving nor scary had happened at all
As they slowly recovered from their shocked state, they found that the familiar, ever present mountains and rivers were still around the was blurry
Le Qing and Jin Fan attempted to force open the barrier It felt soft to the touch, but was obviously extremely sturdy Even when they used all their power, they were unable to tear it open The two of thein Tools to cut a way out, but no matter how hard they attacked, not even a scratch was left on its surface
