Shadow Hack Chapter 208: Li Yunmu's Stubborness

Chapter 208: Li Yunmu's Stubborness
Translator: Mercurial Editor: DarkGem
Many days had passed since Chaotian Sect's six elite disciples had tried to kill Li Yunmu, and the news that Chaotian Sect had lost completely while Flowing Cloud had been captured had already spread everywhere.
Everyone knew almost all the details.
This time, Chaotian Sect had suffered enormous losses. Together with a great loss in face, the six elite disciples had also lost all their cultivation of the sect's secret technique and even brought harm to the sect's foundation.
However, there were those that guessed that with Chaotian Sect's resources—it was one of the top ten majestic sects, after all—this event would barely graze it, let alone damage its foundation.
It was soon reported that the six peaks of Chaotian Sect had introduced six new elite disciples. In order to prove their strength, these six new elite disciples rendered many accomplishments in the past few days, creating a great commotion.
"Have you heard, apart from Ye Qing, who belongs to the main peak, the other six new elite disciples are all female. Rumor is that all of them are topnotch beauties, only one step lower compared to Flowing Cloud."
"Pah, why has Chaotian Sect become so desperate. Even if Northern Black Wind, Thousand Kill Mo, and them lost their flame energy, the sect shouldn't promote six frail beauties to take their place."
"Don't spread nonsense. You shouldn't underestimate this group of elite female disciples for they're extremely ruthless. Each of them is extremely formidable, and I don't think that they would lose to the previous six elites in terms of strength."
"Yes, you're right. Yesterday they attacked and killed many Halted Fluxers in succession. Reportedly those Halted Fluxers had friendly relations with Underworld Hand and his group, and for this all of them are being ambushed and killed. This alone confirms that the strength of this group of elite female disciples is extremely terrifying.
"Besides, do you even know what kind of person is that Ye Qing of Chaotian Sect? He publicly declared that after five days he's going to challenge the Tower of Glory and certainly reach the seventieth level. I think, given how domineering he is, he should be the core successor of Chaotian Sect?"
Seventieth level!
This was certainly a frightening ambition. Even if Ye Qing had the cultivation of rainbow crystal layer, among the fluxers of all six continents, there were only a few people who were powerful enough to clear the seventieth level.
Given that Ye Qing was representing Chaotian Sect's pride, no one thought he was just shooting his mouth when he made the public proclamation about clearing the seventieth level. If he wasn't absolutely certain in being able to accomplish it, then Chaotian Sect wouldn't have allowed him to behave so arrogantly.
Due to all of this, there was only one thought in everyone's mind: This Ye Qing whom no one had heard about previously had been certainly concealed at some secret location by Chaotian Sect.
Many people even deduced that if he cleared the seventieth level and obtained a powerful treasure from the Tower of Glory, he will certainly lead another attack on Li Yunmu.
When all is said and done, this is what Chaotian Sect is.
As for who between Ye Qing, the domineering successor who had appeared suddenly, and Li Yunmu, who had been fearlessly confronting all the dangers in his path, was stronger, most of the fluxers had no idea.
Because in the past several days, Ye Qing's accomplishments had stunned the fluxer community of the six continents.
"Very formidable, really very formidable. Reportedly he has left the mountain and has been challenging the top ten most powerful Halted Fluxers to battle. Yesterday, even Gongzi Nangong who is ranked third suffered defeat under his hands. His strength far surpasses the strength of Li Qinghong who had rebelled against Chaotian Sect."
"Yes, he is really too powerful. After losing face, Chaotian Sect was forced to reveal their secret trump card. It's said that the second-ranked Devil still hasn't appeared to accept Ye Qing's challenge. This shows that even a person like Devil is frightened of him."
"That's right, he is a genuine trump, worthy of being called an upper tier sect's last line of defense. Who could tell whether he or Xiye Hanbei is more powerful."
"There's no doubt that Xiye Hanbei is more powerful. There isn't anyone who can surpass him, he is the true number one of the Fifth Dimension."
In a short few days the news about Li Yunmu defeating Chaotian Sect's six elite disciples became old news due to a typhoon named Ye Qing, whom Chaotian Sect introduced publicly right after their defeat.
Many people who were unaware of the whole situation exclaimed inwardly after seeing his formidable might.
"Seems like Chaotian Sect has been forced to show their true colors."
At this time in the depths of Moro Mountain Tenebrous Hidden Domain, Li Yunmu was looking through the information about Ye Qing on his stellarcomm. He faintly laughed and asked, "Given my present level of strength, how much chance do I have against this second great grandson of Chaotian Sect's founder?"
"In terms of just strength, since master's cultivation of the secret technique has reached the great circle of major threshold, then even if you stay still, he won't be able to beat you."
A hint of disdain passed through Li Qinghong's eyes. Apparently she was a still disgusted by Ye Qing.
"But if Chaotian Sect has bestowed a transcending sage treasure on him, then you will be in danger," Flowing Cloud added.
This was the main reason why Devil hadn't accepted Ye Qing's challenge to duel after Gongzi Nangong had been defeated.
Those who understood the real situation were already aware of what was going on, but those who weren't privy to the true facts still believed that Devil was simply intimidated by the formidable future successor of Chaotian Sect.
"However, since Ye Qing has left the mountain, Chaotian Sect must have full confidence in obtaining the Refining Pagoda. I believe they already have five transcending sage weapons."
Although Li Qinghong disdained Ye Qing, when she was speaking right now, her expression was solemn.
"Can Chaotian Sect really resist transcending powers using the Sungod Flame Killing Spell created by transcending sage weapons?" Lin Jian asked, puzzled. Since he was from Bladewood, he had first-hand knowledge of what strength transcending powers possessed.
Transcending powers were the highest layer within the hierarchy of the six continents. Logically, it shouldn't be possible for a sect to surpass them just by relying on some transcending sage weapons, otherwise all the supreme powers wouldn't even be worth being called supreme.
"I don't know, either, but I've got a suspicion that this Sungod Flame Killing Spell is just a diversion. Their true aim should be to use their consummate spell to absorb even purer flame energy so the strength of Chaotian Sect's Flux Sages would increase to another level," Li Qinghong said with some uncertainty.
Clearly this was just her guess. And because Flowing Cloud hadn't had the standing in the sect to know these kinds of secrets, she knew even less.
But Li Qinghong words alone were enough for Li Yunmu's eyes to narrow.
He suddenly felt that her guess was probably right. On that day, his Great Sun Tyrant Body Muscle Marrow Secrets had increased rapidly with the assistance of Flame Energy Killing Spell used by the six elite disciples.
If six fifth dimensional treasure weapons could allow him to rapidly advance his Great Sun Secret Technique, then the enormous amount of energy which could be drawn from the star using a flame energy spell constructed by six Flux Sages using transcending sage weapons would certainly reach terrifying levels.
In a split second, Li Yunmu realized that this matter was much more serious than he had thought. If Chaotian Sect was able to obtain six transcending sage weapons, this was certain to come true. And given their status of an upper tier sect, they were certainly in possession of enormously deep reserves which made it impossible to stop them from achieving their goal.
But delaying them is certainly possible.
Li Yunmu immediately made his decision. "You all protect this place, and don't forget to catch all the noronha wrasse in the waterfall pond. I will make another trip to the Tower of Glory."
"Master, Don't tell me you want to..."
A hint of savageness flashed in Demon's eyes. He seemed to have thought of something.
"That's right, I want to take the opportunity to clear the seventieth level of Tower of Glory before Ye Qing and obtain the Refining Pagoda."
Li Yunmu's words astonished everyone.
