Chapter 277: Wheel of Good and Evil

Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations

Fang Zhengzhi kept repeating the words ”Dao of Asura” to himself. He also tried to recall what he had read about the Dao of Asura from his previous world.

It was derived from the Asuras. They were evil deities who loved battle. The males were extremely ugly but the females were incredibly beautiful.

However, that explanation would not work in this world.

So...

There could only be one other explanation. The Dao of Asura is good natured. However, it has tints of hatred and a thirst for battle. That was why it was not taken as a good natured Dao.

Hang on...

The Dao of Asura... is one of the six?!

Fang Zhengzhi suddenly thought of something. This world seemed to have too many descriptions of Heaven Dao.

The Heavenly Prophecy, the Heaven Dao Sage Tablet...

Heaven Dao was also one of the six Daos recorded in the annals.

”Six Daos?” Fang Zhengzhi tried to probe.

Yan Xiu, who was about to elaborate further, was stunned when he heard Fang Zhengzhi.

Fang Zhengzhi had never been to a school of Dao. People had always thought that this would result in him knowing less about cultivation than others.

Anyone else would have been shocked to hear Fang Zhengzhi say Six Daos.

However, Yan Xiu was not surprised.

After all, this was Fang Zhengzhi, the man who managed to top every examination despite not having been to a School of Dao.

This was a miracle.

As such, he was not surprised that Fang Zhengzhi knew about the Six Daos.

”Yes, the Dao of Asura is just like the Heavenly Dao. It belongs to one of the six!”

Fang Zhengzhi still did not understand it fully. It was not because Yan Xiu’s explanation was lacking, but because he was guessing something else.

”What is after the Supernatural State?” Fang Zhengzhi asked abruptly. However, he knew that all the answers lay in this one answer.

”Rebirth State!” Yan Xiu answered. He was not shocked by the simplicity of Fang Zhengzhi’s question.

”I understand.” Fang Zhengzhi nodded.

When Yan Xiu had said rebirth, he already had all the answers he needed. The Six Daos were paired with rebirth.

Six Daos of rebirth!

There were 3000 Daos on this world. The Six Daos of rebirth were the Supreme Daos.

Since Yan Xiu had understood the Dao of Asura, it was only natural that he was this powerful. However, there were still some problems.

Based on his current abilities, he could not have complete control over the Dao of Asura.

He could see this from Yan Xiu’s pained expression.

”Yes, even though I have understood the Dao of Asura, I am not powerful enough. The Dao of Asura is good natured. However, if I become consumed by it, I will turn evil. I am currently standing on the ‘Wheel of Good and Evil’. If I do not step on this, I will lose the goodness in me and turn into evil asura. As such, I can only last for 15 minutes more. If you can drag this out for another 15 minutes, I will lose!” Yan Xiu nodded to Fang Zhengzhi.

”I will defeat you within the next 15 minutes!” Fang Zhengzhi loved his jokes. However, he was not joking now.

All of the officials looked on in disdain.

After all, Yan Xiu had shown that he was much more powerful than Fang Zhengzhi. Furthermore, Yan Xiu had made it clear that he could only last another 15 minutes.

The only logical way was to drag the duel out.

However, Fang Zhengzhi said he would defeat Yan Xiu within 15 minutes?

What a joke!

”Is he dumb?”

”I think that that’s an understatement! Don’t insult dumb people!”

”How can he possibly defeat Yan Xiu? Even though Yan Xiu cannot fully control the Dao of Asura, he can increase his abilities temporarily! Although he can’t be as powerful as a Rewind State cultivator, he will have at least three times his original power. I don’t think a Supernatural State cultivator can defeat him!”

”I would like to see him swallow his words once he falls off the stage!”

All of the officials mocked Fang Zhengzhi. No one believed that Fang Zhengzhi had a chance to win this duel.

King Duan heaved a sigh of relief. ”I think he will draw his sword now? Even though he may not have a chance... if he doesn’t draw his sword now, when is he going to do it?”

All of the officials were in disbelief. However, Yan Xiu nodded and said solemnly.

”Good!”

...

A light gust of wind blew Yan Xiu’s clothes about. However, Fang Zhengzhi had no sleeves that could flap in the wind.

Fang Zhengzhi’s long sleeved robe had already become a tattered short sleeve.

All of the officials were confused as to why Yan Xiu would say ‘good’ at such a time.

Was it...

Consolation?

Yes, it must be consolation!

With their friendship, it was not weird for Yan Xiu to console Fang Zhengzhi at this time.

Just as the officials were all thinking about it, Fang Zhengzhi leapt into action.

He charged at Yan Xiu without any announcement or secret weapons. He looked like an arrow released from a bow.

This was quite a common attack throughout the day.

However, all of the officials were in disbelief to see Fang Zhengzhi attack in this manner.

”This is how he’s going to defeat Yan Xiu?”

”I think he’s giving up?”

If Fang Zhengzhi had used some sort of innovative techniques or drew the Traceless Sword, the officials could have still rationalized it.

However, they could not understand why Fang Zhengzhi would charge like that.

Fang Zhengzhi had no intention to pull any more tricks.

After knowing Yan Xiu’s condition, Fang Zhengzhi only had one thought. He would defeat Yan Xiu fairly, or he would lose to Yan Xiu fairly.

There was only one way to describe Fang Zhengzhi’s feelings at this point.

That was...

As a man, one cannot be a coward!

Yan Xiu had already told him that he could only last for another 15 minutes. If he dragged it out for the win, will he still be sportsmanlike?

Fang Zhengzhi charged without hesitation.

Yan Xiu’s expression changed when he saw Fang Zhengzhi charge. His pain vanished momentarily. Even though he was still sweating, he smiled.

This was a sincere smile.

Friends.

Yan Xiu knew that Fang Zhengzhi was actually powerful. However, he did not like to use his powers. After all, if he could live just by his brain, why do all that hard work?

It was too uncivilised.

Yan Xiu had once asked Fang Zhengzhi why he did not like to use force. Fang Zhengzhi replied that he was scared of getting hurt, or scared of pain.

He did not understand that logic, but he knew that Fang Zhengzhi was telling the truth.
