Chapter 129: Killing Someone’s Heart, Impossible
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Between the mountains, the Sage Slaughter floated in the air. Strong wind blew around him, lifting trees from the ground in all directions and sending them into the sky.
The Sage raised his head and enjoyed the huge amount of luck tempering his physique. The corners of his mouth curled up.
“This feeling… This Lord has finally succeeded…”
The Sage Slaughter muttered. He would reach the realm that everyone in Xiansheng Grotto-heaven had been pursuing!
Feeling the crazy increase in his true qi, he suddenly had an idea.
Perhaps he could defeat the Dao Ancestor after his breakthrough!
As soon as this thought came out, it was like wild grass growing crazily and could not be stopped.
Now that Xiansheng Grotto-heaven had retreated, leaving only him on the Dragon Vein Continent, it was not impossible to give it a try. Even if he could not defeat him, he could still escape.
No, he could destroy Great Jing first and take revenge on the Dao Ancestor!
The Sage thought of many plans, but he suddenly became worried. With such a huge change in luck, would the Dao Ancestor come in advance?
“I don’t think so. Great Jing is in the south, more than 200,000 miles away from here…”
The Sage Slaughter thought to himself. He subconsciously looked around.
Suddenly!
His gaze locked onto a direction, and his expression changed drastically.
He focused his gaze and saw a Daoist standing on a mountain two miles away. The Daoist wore an incomparably gorgeous Daoist robe and his face was as handsome as an immortal. Furthermore, he was extremely young. At first glance, he looked like an immortal that had descended to the mortal world.
It was Jiang Changsheng!
Jiang Changsheng stared at the Sage with an expressionless face.
The Sage’s heart pounded wildly. How could there be a Daoist here? He had survey the area around here before, but the other party had managed to dodge his senses and approach without him noticing.
Even though he had seen the other party, the Sage was shocked to discover that he could not sense his aura.
The Dao Ancestor!
The Sage instantly guessed the other party’s true identity. Even though it was inconceivable, it was the only possibility.
His breathing stopped and his body stiffened as he fell into unprecedented fear.
He had yet to break through, so how could he fight the Dao Ancestor?
Even if he were to escape now, he might not be able to.
Wait, why did the Dao Ancestor not take action?
The Sage suddenly thought of something. He had never met the Dao Ancestor, and the Dao Ancestor did not know who he was. Perhaps the Dao Ancestor was here for the change in luck.
Give up the luck and escape?
The Sage Slaughter fell into a struggle.
Jiang Changsheng observed for a while and discovered that the luck of heaven and earth was pouring into the Sage’s body, helping him stimulate an even larger amount of true qi to become stronger. However, if this continued, the luck of heaven and earth would collapse.
He had now understood the importance of luck in the world of martial arts, especially for Luck Dynasties. Once luck collapsed and natural disasters started, the human world would turn into wasteland.
That would not do!
Jiang Changsheng suddenly disappeared. The next second, the strong wind around the Sage was dispersed. Jiang Changsheng appeared behind him out of thin air and pressed his palm on his back, cutting off the luck of heaven and earth. At the same time, he poured his spiritual energy into the Sage to assist him in his breakthrough.
The Sage Slaughter had reached the critical point of his breakthrough. Jiang
Changsheng had replaced the luck of heaven and earth with his spiritual energy to help him break through.
The Sage panicked; he could not move at all. Soon after, he found a powerful force helping him to break through, and he could not help but be stunned.
The Dao Ancestor was helping him break through?
The Sage was stunned.
Boom!
His aura suddenly skyrocketed and his true qi could not be stopped. It formed a strong wind that coiled around his body and the image of heaven and earth appeared behind him before rapidly expanding.
As the luck of heaven and earth was cut off, the luck of the world no longer surged and the phenomenon began to dissipate.
“It seems like he really doesn’t know my identity…”
The Sage’s eyes flickered as he said, “Thank you for assisting me.”
Jiang Changsheng calmly said, “The luck of heaven and earth concerns all living beings. It’s understandable for you to become stronger through martial arts, but you have to walk the right path.”
“You’re right. I only made such a bad move because I had no way to break through.”
The Sage answered and breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Changsheng fell silent.
Time continued to pass.
An hour later, Jiang Changsheng stopped. He did not even consume one percent of his spiritual energy to assist the Sage in his breakthrough. The main reason was that the Sage was powerful enough and was only one step away.
The Sage had successfully broken through. Just like that thousand-year-old demon, he triggered a change in the weather and the luck of the world surged. At that moment, countless peerless experts were in an uproar, especially those at the Golden Body realm. They knew very well that this phenomenon was not caused by a breakthrough to the Golden Body realm, but a breakthrough to a higher realm.
The Sage took a deep breath and felt an unprecedentedly powerful true qi. He turned around and bowed to Jiang Changsheng.
“Thank you for your help. I will remember this favor.”
The Sage Slaughter said in a deep voice. He mocked in his heart. Dao Ancestor, oh Dao Ancestor, the downside of hiding in the mountains to cultivate was that you would never know who your enemy was.
He did not want to let bygones be bygones. His junior brother had died at the hands of the Dao Ancestor and Xiansheng Grotto-heaven had been forced to leave the Dragon Vein Continent. His millennia foundation had been destroyed because of this person. How could he let go of this hatred?
He was even wondering if he could kill the Dao Ancestor now.
Jiang Changsheng said, “May I ask the Sage of Xiansheng Grotto-heaven how you wish to repay my kindness?”
The moment he said that, the Sage was shocked. He jumped away in shock and pulled away from Jiang Changsheng.
His expression was ugly as he gritted his teeth and asked, “How do you know who I am? Since you know, why did you help me?”
Jiang Changsheng chuckled and said, “I have no choice. I have been waiting for you to break through, but if you absorb all the luck of the world, the world will be desolate. I cannot accept this, so I can only personally help you break through.”
The Sage’s heart trembled. How did the other party know that he wanted to absorb all the surrounding luck?
His first reaction was that his junior brother had betrayed him.
Impossible!
How could his junior brother betray him?
Could it be that he had suffered unimaginable torture before he died and was forced to confess everything?
At that thought, the Sage’s anger rose, and his eyes were filled with killing intent.
“Let’s fight. Today, you will not be able to leave. You will either defeat me or die in humiliation.”
Jiang Changsheng raised his hand and said. The Qilin Horsetail Whisk was pinned on his belt and the Taihang Sword was also placed in a scabbard. His hands were empty and he did not release his aura, but he brought endless pressure to the Sage.
“Damn it, I’ve already broken through. How can I be afraid of him?”
The Slaughter Sage roared in his heart. He immediately prepared to fight. He spread his arms and the image of heaven and earth appeared behind him, becoming larger and larger. His heaven and earth image was very similar to his junior brother, but with more sounds, it was as if there were countless birds chirping inside, shaking the world.
“In that case, let’s fight to the death, Dao Ancestor!”
The Sage Slaughter shouted angrily. His aura was like flames, and his white hair danced in the wind. At that moment, he transformed into a devil god. His strength that exceeded the Universe realm shook the earth. Countless gravels were sent flying, and the mountain forest swayed violently like a gale.
Jiang Changsheng’s black hair fluttered in the wind. The corners of his mouth curled up and his eyes revealed anticipation.
This aura was not bad, far stronger than the Sword God!
The Sage struck out with his palm, and the image of heaven and earth that was thousands of feet tall rushed out from behind him. It brushed past his body and crashed into Jiang Changsheng with unstoppable momentum.
In an instant, countless bolts of lightning appeared in the world. The front end of the lightning condensed into the shape of tens of thousands of birds that chirped as they attacked Jiang Changsheng.
Lightning flashed on Jiang Changsheng’s face, and his robe fluttered violently. He looked so insignificant in the face of the Sage Slaughter, but the violent storm and lightning could not shake him in the slightest. He raised his left hand, and the Sun Shooting Divine Bow appeared out of thin air. He quickly pulled with his right hand and released it.
Boom—
An even more terrifying light beam shot out and instantly shattered the phenomenon of heaven and earth. A world-destroying gale crushed everything between heaven and earth, and the extreme light made heaven and earth lose its color.
The Sage widened his eyes in disbelief and fear.
He did not have time to dodge or even defend.
The strong light drowned him, crushed the mountains and the land, and killed its way to the end of the world.
Jiang Changsheng threw the Sun Shooting Divine Bow back into the Giant Spirit Ring. The land recovered and the strong light disappeared. Dust filled the sky. In front of Jiang Changsheng was a huge gully that was a thousand feet wide and hundreds of feet deep. It spread all the way to the end of the horizon. Mountains were pierced through and even flattened along the way. Even the sea of clouds in the sky was torn into two. It was a spectacular sight.
The Sage Slaughter, who was covered in blood, fell into the huge gully. His muscles and bones were broken and he was on the verge of death.
Jiang Changsheng landed by his side and looked down at him.
The Sage opened his eyes, but he could sense that it was Jiang Changsheng. He said with great difficulty, “Dao Ancestor… you’ve won… but there’s still a chance for Xiansheng Grotto-heaven… I’ve already sent a message to all the forces in the nearby ocean… announcing that Xiansheng Grotto-heaven has abandoned the Dragon Vein Continent… Your enemies will come one after another. I wonder how long can you protect Great Jing..
Jiang Changsheng said expressionlessly, “Xiansheng Grotto-heaven regards itself as a holy land that avoids the world. Why would they interfere with the affairs of the dynasty?”
The Sage’s chest heaved violently as he gritted his teeth and said, “That was because the previous sages were incompetent… If Chao Sects and dynasties were allowed to rise, Xiansheng Grotto-heaven would b e overthrown sooner or later… If I had been in power earlier… how could there be today…”
“These words are meaningless. I have already expected that I would not be your opponent… I have already evacuated Xiansheng Grotto-heaven. One day, Xiansheng Grotto-heaven will return… I hope you will still be alive at that time and let my future disciples avenge me…’
He revealed a crazy smile as blood continuously flowed out from his mouth.
Jiang Changsheng said, “You won’t be able to make a comeback. Your disciples were prepared to evacuate that night, but I killed them all.”
The Sage froze and his lips trembled.
Killing people’s hearts!
He suddenly opened his eyes that were filled with blood. He stared at Jiang
Changsheng with hatred and roared, “Impossible… Impossible…”
“Zhu Que, you bastard! How dare you betray Xiansheng Grotto-heaven!”
The Sage Slaughter roared and died with his neck tilted.
Jiang Changsheng shook his head. Zhu Que was the Universe realm expert who had attacked the capital. How could he know of the Sage’s plan? After all, the Sage’s plan was only born after his death. However, the Sage was about to die and had lost his mind.
Jiang Changsheng waved his hand and used the surrounding soil to bury the Sage.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly felt something and turned to the east with his eyebrows raised.
“This aura… could it be that peerless expert who is worth 100,000 incense points?”
Jiang Changsheng silently thought that the other party’s aura was even stronger than the Sage Slaughter after his breakthrough.. Perhaps it was because the Sage Slaughter had just broken through and his realm was not stable enough, but the other party was a true One Grotto-heaven realm expert!
