Chapter 581: Another Cultivator

”Big Brother Qian, right in front of us, is the city of West Mon Religion’s Holy Church, Mi Qi City. I heard that this city is a palace, and West Mon’s Archbishop Bin Lanxi is staying in the palace. As long as we get rid of Mi Qi City, it would be equivalent to destroying the West Mon Religion,” An aristocrat explained to Qian Zhicheng in a hushed voice.

Before Qian Zhicheng could even reply, some cried out in alarm, ”Someone is walking in midair!”

Indeed, a grey faced man with Buddhist beads in his hand began to descend upon them from midair. His gaze swept across the rows of soldier in contempt.

In his eyes, it didn't matter how many soldiers there were, they were all merely ants.

However, when his eyes landed on the sword in Qian Zhicheng's hands, his pupils instantly constricted. He immediately flashed towards Qian Zhicheng, reaching for the longsword.

If Qian Zhicheng wasn't a veteran who didn't experience war over the past few months, he would really have been stupefied by that sudden action. But after experiencing the war, Qian Zhicheng had a strong self confidence. The moment he saw that man coming towards him, he immediately swung his longsword.

Even so, his speed was really too slow. By the time the man approached him, his longsword had only just finished the slash.

The longsword conjured a beam of white light, which stabbed towards this grey faced man.

The Buddhist beads in the grey faced man's hands exploded to form countless of Buddhist threads; these threads formed the shape of wave which blocked the longsword.

Tearing sounds reverberated through the air as the wave like Buddhist threads were continuously ripped apart. The grey faced man hurriedly flew backwards in surprise, all the way till he reached the outside of Mi Qi City. His Buddhist threads had managed to defend against the sword light from the longsword. At the same time, the longsword flew back into Qian Zhicheng's hands.

Even though he had the upper hand on the exchange, Qian Zhicheng was still at a loss. Ever since he had this sword, this was the first time he met someone that his longsword could not cut down.

”I never thought that a cultivator's magic treasure would end up here. Not only is it incredibly strong, it could even be wielded by you…” The grey faced man didn't make another move, he only spoke coldly.

Perhaps Qian Zhicheng's longsword was an incredible magic treasure, but he was not in a rush. In this planet, there was no one that could stop him, Hong Guang, from getting what he wants.

”Bin Lanxi greets Master Hong Guang!” The pale white Bin Lanxi swiftly walked out of the city and bowed.

If they didn't see it with their own eyes, no one would believe that the Archbishop of West Mon would be so reverent to an ordinary looking man. No one knew that in West Mon, there was still a spiritual master above the Archbishop.

Fortunately, this Spiritual Master Hong Guang had never asked about the matters of West Mon; he only cared about how West Mon could help him when he needed it to.

The grey faced Hong Guang nodded, ”You do indeed have a reason to be scared. If I hadn't come, perhaps your head would soon be hanging outside the walls of Mi Qi City.”

Bin Lanxi’s heart pounded; he knew that this Spiritual Master Hong Guang wasn't a good man, but he was very sure that Hong Guang wouldn't lie about such matters.

”Many thanks Master for your saving grace!” Bin Lanxi hurriedly expressed his thanks; his eyes were filled with respect and sincerity.

Hong Guang nodded, ”Let me take a look at that sword…”

With that, Hong Guang stepped out and tried again to grab the longsword in Qian Zhicheng's hands. He had already made sense of the situation; besides this longsword being a little impressive, there was no other threat. Qian Zhicheng wasn't even a mage.

The moment he wasn't able to kill Hong Guang with his attack, Qian Zhicheng's heart sank. The reason why he was able to bring his huge army here was primarily because of the sword in his hand. Now that his sword was unable to kill the other party, it would mean that this place was going to be his grave.

On the second time that Hong Guang approached, Qian Zhicheng wasn't even able to attack with his longsword as the other party's palm was already right in front of him.

”Cha!” A sharp sound, which couldn't be heard by ordinary people, sounded. Following which, Qian Zhicheng felt his hand become lighter. His longsword was gone.

”Eh!” Hong Guang wasn't as flustered the second time as he had during the first. He had managed to directly snatch away Qian Zhicheng's sword. However, he wasn't feeling elation at this moment, but shock.

Around Qian Zhicheng's body, there was actually a faint layer of a magic barrier. What kind of person was so powerful as to create such a lasting protective barrier around an ordinary mortal? At least, he wasn't that powerful.

If there was really an expert behind Qian Zhicheng, then he couldn't stay here for long. Regardless, he would need to make sense of the situation first; he, Hong Guang, wasn't going to simply run away like that. Planet Heavenly Crow was a planet that he had chosen with great efforts. It would be a huge waste if he were to leave with it getting things clear.

Even though the Pan siblings and Lou Yueshuang were cleverer than the average person, and their talents were also amazing, Mo Wuji continued to stay behind and pass his teachings for close to five months. As for how much they were each able to absorb was mostly within his control.
