Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
"Baize Mountain and the alliance of dream masters, I, Cang Xuansheng will fight against you for my entire life!"
In a random corner of the Jade Capital, within a huge room, a Wu Zong was reading a letter. He shrieked as he crushed the paper in his hands into powder.
At this point in time, his face turned red. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The dark red blood stained the white walls like spots of plum blossom flowers.
"Lord Xuansheng?"
Outside, there was a cry. A dream master discovered what had happened and quickly spread the information.
Not long after, an old man came in.
He had a peaceful look and was wearing a long black robe. His hair was a pure silver colour but he appeared extremely energetic. As he gazed at the wall, he frowned. "Xuansheng, although you have escaped, you have still succumbed to the 'Seven Emotions Devouring Formula'. You must keep your thoughts under control. Know that being happy, angry or sad would harm your soul. Just this time, you have already shortened your lifespan by ten years!"
The Seven Emotions Devouring Formula was created by a powerful being from the Evil Divine Sect. Even the Imperial Court could not do anything to undo it.
"I know... But what meaning does life have if I cannot avenge by sect? Furthermore, I am a martial artist!"
Martial artists hold pride in gaining through brute force. If he held himself back, how would he then be able to cultivate to the realm of True Divine?
Cang Xuansheng took in a few deep breaths and composed himself down. "Tell me, how long do I have left?"
"Cough cough... if you become useless, what is the purpose of living a long life?"
The old man's eyes briefly glistened. "However, looking at your current state, if you are willing to recuperate and ignore worldly affairs, together with the help of herbs, you should be able to live for another hundred years."
"However, in this period of time, you cannot fill yourself with emotions and must restrain yourself from fighting with others!"
Cang Xuansheng laughed. "If this is so, how am I different from a dead person? I would rather have a quick death."
He glanced at the old man. Suddenly, his voice became cold. "I believe the royal family will find it meaningless to take care of a useless person, right? Since I have already found an heir and have already recorded by martial arts into the royal family's martial arts treasury, I no longer have any value..."
"Cough cough..."
The old man's expression changed. "Xuansheng, don't think too much. You have helped the Imperial Court and we will take care of you for your entire life..."
"What if I don't want to be taken care of! I am almost crippled and would rather make the most of my life. Staying alive might even irritate you all..."
Cang Xuansheng was clear that such promises made by the Imperial Court were not worthy. They might last for a year or two but as time passed, any major contribution made in the past would be swept off the table.
Furthermore, what meaning would there be to lead a meaningless life?
"Make the most of your life? What are you intending to do?"
As the Divine Hand of the royal family, you can revive dead people and restore flesh to bones. How long do you think you can keep this Seven Emotions Devouring Formula under control? Don't tell me that you have no idea. There are so many people in the Imperial Court, and there must be a time where you have encountered something like this, right?"
Cang Xuansheng asked coldly.
"You're right... The Evil Divine Sect has always been at odds with the Imperial Court. Therefore, it is only normal that I have seen this formula elsewhere before. Although there is no cure for it, there is a 'Seven Perilous Earth Dragon Pill' which, in essence, make use of the fact that a poison can counter another. It can restore your martial arts for up to 7 days and you will be able to live normally. However, as soon as the 7 days pass, you will die and there will be no way of bringing you back to life!"
The old man stroked his beard as though he was already prepared. "How do you intend to take your revenge... within the next 7 days? Although the Imperial Court and the Hidden Dragon Guards will assist you, the main group will still have to remain in the Jade Capital to defend it. You will not be able to get enough reinforcements!"
"I am only a True Divine martial artist and will not be able to trouble the 5 Grand Organisations too much. I'll just kill as many of them as I can!"
Cang Xuansheng had a mysterious look. "Do you have the records of all the powerful dream masters in the 5 Grand Organisations that are below the 7th Tier of the Illusionary Divine stage? I want all of their information and their whereabouts! Although I cannot touch the powerful dream masters, I can kill their disciples and weaken their army."
"Alright!"
The old man bowed. "Don't worry, I will send all this information in an instant!"
It was indeed in an instant.
Within a few moments, a Hidden Dragon Guard entered with a solemn look and presented a tray to Cang Xuansheng.
On the tray was a translucent jade bottle. Within it, there was a black pill. Beside the bottle was a stack of papers.
"This Seven Perilous Earth Dragon Pill is made from 7 types of extreme poisons and infused with dragon energy before being made. It is used as a poison to counter another poison. As soon as you consume it, there will be no turning back."
The old man's gentle voice was heard. "This stack of information has all the names of the talented dream masters in the 5 Grand Organisations. Most of them are at the 4th Tier or higher and are roaming out there..."
A powerful being would take almost no effort to wipe out these talents. He would be able to quickly finish every fight with every one of the dream masters and able to weaken the future potential of dream masters as well.
"I understand. By being able to kill a few more of them in the next 7 days, it is already making the most of my remaining life!"
Can Xuansheng remained expressionless as he took the tray from the Hidden Dragon Guard.
"After this, both the Imperial Court and the Hidden Dragon Guards will no longer look out for you. Please take care of yourself!"
The old man took another deep bow.
He could only secretly kill the disciples of the powerful dream masters, for even the Imperial Court would not be willing to take such a risk and do it openly.
After all, if the Imperial Court were to claim responsibility, the 5 Grand Organisations would surely strike back 10 times as hard.
To look at things from another angle, Cang Xuansheng was a member of the Golden Peak Sect, which was just wiped from existence.
It was therefore logical for him to take the risk and kill the talented dream masters.
Even if the dream masters of the 5 Grand Organisations were to strike back 10 times as hard, they could do nothing since the Golden Peak Sect was already destroyed.
"Alright!"
Cang Xuansheng picked up the stack of papers, scanned across and revealed a look of vengeance in his eyes.
...
"Elder Smelter is still rather smart about this..."
Within the 9 Extremes Mountain, Fang Yuan wiped his robe and stood up.
To think about it, this additional mission was extremely relaxed.
After the previous happenings, the scout of the Imperial Court did not linger in the 9 Extremes Mountain any longer. Therefore, Fang Yuan could easily complete this mission. All he had to do was to wait for another representative from the Realm Alliance to take over from him so that he could return to Golden Sun Prosperous Land to remain in isolation.
However, he still felt a tinge of pity for he did not get a chance to indirectly kill Meng Lian.
"Lord!"
At this point in time, a dream master from the Realm Alliance requested to see Fang Yuan, claiming that he had bad news. "The 5 Grand Organisations have spread the news that a True Divine martial artist is on a killing rampage. He has already killed dream masters from Baizi Mountain, Evil Divine Sect and the Divine Lotus Cult. We have to be on our guard!"
"True Divine? How would he dare?"
Fang Yuan was confused as he touched his cheek.
Mmm, even if he were to ignore Fang Yuan's cultivation in martial arts, the fact that Fang Yuan had achieved the 4th Tier of the Illusionary Divine stage would mean that this True Divine would be likely to be looking out for Fang Yuan.
"Of course he would dare!"
The dream master from the Realm Alliance laughed. "This person is Cang Xuansheng. He was an elder of the Golden Peak Sect in Gold Region... Their sect was just destroyed and there were no survivors!"
Since Cang Xuansheng had no more worries, he could recklessly go about on his killing spree.
Fang Yuan was speechless. "What in the world... How can the powerful dream masters miss out on such a dangerous person!"
Knowing that this True Divine was crazy, it would be unfortunate if anyone were to encounter him.
"Do we know his whereabouts?"
"Nope. The few elders have been looking out. However, this person is extremely sly. It is simple for a True Divine to cover his own tracks. Unless facing a True Divine, it would be extremely hard to detect one. Furthermore, they can cover over 350 miles in a day, so it is tedious to determine their location!"
The dream master gave a look of uneasiness as he glanced at Fang Yuan.
"Mmm... If he wants to maximise his powers, it is very likely that he would enter perilous lands like the 9 Extremes Mountain..."
Fang Yuan was speechless for a while. "Pass the order for the defences to be tightened up!"
"Yes, Lord!"
This dream master was extremely careful as he took his leave, for he was afraid that Fang Yuan might be in a bad mood and would take it out on him.
"Really..."
Witnessing his reaction, Fang Yuan felt a little depressed. "Am I really a person who would take it out on others? Furthermore... the other talented dream masters might be looking for ways to protect themselves, but for me, I think I would be a good opportunity to test out my martial arts."
Now that his Nine Transference Mystical Technique had reached a peak, he required an opportunity to achieve the breakthrough.
...
Very quickly, 3 days had passed. A few dream masters had arrived to take over from Fang Yuan.
Unfortunately, Fang Yuan did not manage to encounter the True Divine.
Seeing how the other dream masters like Huang Long, Lu Xuanzhi and even Meng Lian heaving sighs of relief, Fang Yuan felt even more disappointed. "Could Cang Xuansheng be already captured by the powerful dream masters? Otherwise, considering the geographical advantage in the 9 Extremes Mountain, why would he not come?"
If the other dream masters were to know what Fang Yuan was thinking, they would surely be speechless.
Most of them were afraid that the powerful enemy would approach them and no one would think that anyone would be looking forward to seeing the enemy.
"Alright, the takeover is complete. Have a good journey, Lord!"
The dream master who led the group of them to take over was only at the 4th Tier of the Illusionary Divine stage. With a smiling face, he attempted to establish good relations with Fang Yuan.
After all this while, the arrangements on the node will be able to activate itself and will no longer be easily destroyed. Therefore, from now onwards, they would only need to send a few people to occasionally take a look.
"Alright!"
After receiving proof that their mission was completed, the few dream masters had no intentions of staying behind. All of them quickly left as though this place was hell.
"Such a prosperous land... it's a pity that it's hidden!"
Fang Yuan followed the dream masters as he thought to himself.
Perhaps, he could start planning to get the appointment of the guardian of the 9 Extremes Mountain after a few more years.
To him, this was the best prosperous land he could ever ask for, especially in troubled times like this. It was a safe haven.
With him leading the way, the group of dream masters quickly arrived at the exit.
"Alright, after passing this place, we will be out of 9 Extremes Mountain. Take care of yourselves!"
Fang Yuan waved his hands. His spiritual will shook as he smirked.
"Lord, please take care!"
Lu Xuanzhi and Huang Long paid their respects while Meng Lian had some thoughts to herself as she chuckled inside. 'The faster you climb, the harder you'll fall. We must quickly leave this place and leave you for you will be the source of trouble. It is no laughing matter if we get involved in the True Divine's killing rampage.'
