106: The Ninth Palace's Prodigy! The Test of One's Own

“Isn’t this just pure, outright seeking death?”

“The Spirit Emperor Realm, even if injured, is still the Spirit Emperor Realm. How could I, a mere Spirit King Realm cultivator, possibly defeat him?”

Zhang Qianchou muttered incessantly.

Back in his room, Yang Yucheng sighed.

Currently!

Even his own Subordinate from the Ninth Hall, a Spirit King Realm cultivator, dared to come and provoke and test him.

Although the other party was a big idiot, it was still evident how precarious Yang Yucheng’s situation was, like a Tang Monk’s flesh, surrounded by so many people in the Northern Region.

“Only when my injuries recover and I unleash my full strength will those people gradually retreat.”

Yang Yucheng murmured to himself.

He could also imagine that the journey ahead would certainly not be easy.

However!

Staying in his room, Yang Yucheng’s expression was somewhat heavy.

To avoid being tracked by others, the hundred zhang spirit boat had already changed its original route, not directly speeding towards the Fengyun Sect, but taking a very circuitous path.

Even with intelligence from Tianji Pavilion, they couldn't possibly transmit information constantly.

“Could there be a traitor?”

This thought suddenly popped into Yang Yucheng’s mind; only his own people could know his current location... On the deck!

Beside Sixth Elder Xu Cheng, Zhang Qianchou’s words were truly outrageous, just like his idiotic appearance.

“I hope that when I return to the Sect, to the Ninth Hall, the Hall Master will not punish me with other tortures, but instead use his Heavenly Phoenix True Fire to severely whip and burn me!”

“This way, it will also be of great benefit to the Cultivation Technique I practice!”

He laughed foolishly, as if he truly had an optimistic disposition, and in an instant, he completely forgot about his previous challenge to Yang Yucheng, and even the incident where he almost lost his life because of it.

He forgot it completely.

“Who’s there? Get out now!”

Suddenly!

The foolish smile on Zhang Qianchou’s face vanished, replaced by a stern expression.

He clenched his right fist.

The next second!

His body, covered in coiled muscles and knots, condensed into a figure three zhang tall.

The humanoid light figure emitted streaks of fire, with flames blazing.

Although it wasn't condensed into a physical form, merely an Aura, this giant light figure, formed by the Fengyun Sect’s Body Refining Cultivation Technique, still possessed an extraordinary Aura and terrifying power.

As Zhang Qianchou made this move, Sixth Elder Xu Cheng’s expression beside him grew solemn, and Li Huanhuan also immediately entered a combat state.

Zhang Qianchou merely sensed that something was amiss.

Their Spirit Emperor Realm spiritual senses swept around, and they indeed made a discovery.

“Still not coming out!!!”

Without warning.

Amidst the nearby vast and ever-changing white clouds, a brilliant Sword Qi suddenly appeared, suspended in mid-air.

The Sword Qi dissipated, and the Sword Qi was gone!

The figure of a young man gradually came into view.

Upon seeing this person, Sixth Elder Xu Cheng showed a wary expression.

“So it’s Mr. Liu, the dual supremacy of book and sword, who has arrived!”

“May I ask, Mr. Liu of the Xuantian Sword Sect, what brings you here today?”

Sixth Elder Xu Cheng cupped his hands and said in a deep voice.

In the past!

Both sides were Righteous Path Sects. Everyone was united, so there was no problem.

But now, an old expert from the Northern Region, even if he was from a Righteous Path force, came at an inappropriate time, and the meaning behind it became very mysterious.

As for the other party specifically coming to escort them to the Fengyun Sect, such a thing...

Even the people of the Fengyun Sect had not yet arrived, so could the people of other Righteous Path forces truly be so kind?

Sixth Elder Xu Cheng would not necessarily believe it so easily.

“The world says that among the six Elders of the Fengyun Sect!”

“Sixth Elder has the shallowest strength, but today it seems that this is probably a false statement! Without a sound, he has already made a Breakthrough to the Middle Stage of the Spirit Emperor Realm, and he would probably rank among the top in any major Sect.”

As Liu Ran spoke, he revealed Sixth Elder Xu Cheng’s current Cultivation Realm.

And to be able to achieve this!

It undoubtedly proved that his current cultivation and strength were even more terrifying than the Middle Stage of the Spirit Emperor Realm.

“Liu Ran? It’s actually him!”

Li Huanhuan felt somewhat shocked.

Liu Ran’s background was truly not small!

For an ordinary person, they might only know that he was once a Scholar, coupled with his inspiring past.

But for her Demonic Path Sect, Jade Maiden Palace!

They had a considerable understanding of Liu Ran, a person who had dealt heavy blows to the Demonic Path.

Although he had some talent in the Dao of scholarship, compared to his talent in the Sword Dao, it could only be said that the difference was too great.

It was a world of difference.

“Liu Ran!”

“A Sword Dao Expert of the Xuantian Sword Sect, in just a few decades, he has already reached the Spirit Emperor Realm, completing a journey that would take others hundreds or even thousands of years. If he hadn’t made a Breakthrough to the Spirit Emperor Realm earlier, your name would probably still be on the young supreme beings ranking list.”

That’s right.

Liu Ran was once a member of the young supreme ranking.

“Hahaha!!!”

Liu Ran smiled slightly and shook his head, “It’s just a trivial reputation! What’s more, back then, I was only ranked seventh on that young supreme ranking!”

“Compared to the current acting sect master of the Fengyun Sect, there’s quite a difference.”

“His second-place ranking truly makes me, a Scholar, somewhat envious! In literature, there is no first; in martial arts, there is no second. When I was studying, I never submitted to my classmates!”

“Now, I naturally will not submit to this acting sect master of the Fengyun Sect!”

Screams rang out as Liu Ran made his move.

He was like a god of slaughter, not directly confronting the Spirit Emperor Realm Sixth Elder Xu Cheng or Li Huanhuan beside him right away.

Instead, he targeted the Divine Phoenix Guard members who were protecting the spirit boat nearby.

He, a Spirit Emperor expert, made his move.

How could these Divine Phoenix Guard members, who were in the Spirit King Realm, or even the lower three Realms, possibly be his opponents?

Liu Ran swept through everything.

Everyone he encountered was instantly annihilated by his sweeping Sword Qi.

In just one or two breaths!

Many Divine Phoenix Guard members were killed or injured.

On the deck, Zhang Qianchou could no longer bear to watch.

He was also a member of the Ninth Hall, and previously, he was also a member of this Divine Phoenix Guard. Later, as his strength increased, he gradually left.

He also gained a free identity in the Ninth Hall, so at this moment, watching his former comrades die tragically, he would not stand by and watch.

“What dual supremacy of book and sword? It’s all nonsense! Today, I, Zhang Qianchou, want to see your abilities.”

Zhang Qianchou roared.

The giant flaming divine statue behind him took a step forward.

Leaving the spirit boat Formation, his clenched fist also slammed down fiercely, instantly stirring up countless tornadoes.

The killing intent belonging to his flaming divine statue also enveloped Liu Ran in front of him.

However, after only a moment, the flaming divine statue stopped.

The smile on Zhang Qianchou’s face also suddenly became stern.
