Chapter 32: The Way of Life, Great Again!



By the time Wei Dongliu and Jiang Li'an arrived at Shushan, the war had been going on for some time.

If we look at historical records, the Shushan Sword Immortals have won more and lost less, and are clearly superior in confrontations.

If we consider it from Dui Zi's perspective, since it is an open fight, for every sword immortal killed in Shushan, four or five cultivators from the Demon Cult may die.

But on the one hand, the resources that the sect uses to train these four or five demonic monks are not much less than those used to train a Shushan swordsman - not everyone is as self-reliant as Qingluo Peak.

On the other hand, if they continue to fight and consume each other like this, by the time Shushan is seriously damaged, the Demonic Path may not even suffer any serious injuries.

Therefore, the atmosphere in Shushan became more and more tense day by day, so much so that when Wei Dongliu arrived at the main camp of the Demon Cult, he saw a Jindan Zhenren from Ziyun Peak performing Taoist magic on the sword.

The dark grey sword light turned into a shield, covering his body tightly. The other flying sword slowly chased the demon monk on the opposite side, clearly putting safety first and killing the opponent with the least risk.

The fact that the usually warlike Shushan Sword Master was forced to adopt such a despicable way of fighting to save his life shows that the situation of Shushan itself is not very optimistic.

On the Demonic Path side, everyone was excited and believed that "the situation was very good", but the higher-ups saw that the ancestors were worried, and they also knew that the current situation was not as good as the ancestors expected.

As for what the immortal ancestors were worried about, it was naturally because the spies from Shushan had never obtained any news about the Wanxiang Juexian Sword.

The sword of absolute immortals rang on the plateau. At that time, Shushan was fighting with Shura Dao. There was a high probability that the sword of absolute immortals fell into the hands of someone from these two sects.

If a cultivator from either side succeeds, during this fierce war period, he may be sent by the sect to fight at any time. In order to improve his strength as quickly as possible to protect himself, he will definitely be forced to recognize his master as soon as possible.

The harder the Juexian Sword resists, the easier it is to resonate with the Three Swords of Jiejiao, and further point out the direction for the immortal ancestors.

However, the fact is that the Heavenly Demon Immortal Slaying Sword, the Nine Nether Immortal Slaying Sword, and the Blood Sea Immortal Slaying Sword did not receive any response from the Ten Thousand Aspects Immortal Slaying Sword.

In other words, either the other party endured and did not start to refine the Wanxiang Juexian Sword;

Or... the other party has such great powers that the Wanxiang Juexian Sword is completely unable to contact the outside world.

Of course, there are some other smaller possibilities, such as the Wanxiang Juexian Sword successfully breaking free and running away without being captured by anyone - naturally it would not contact the Three Swords of Jiejiao again.

For example, the Wanxiang Juexian Sword directly recognized its master, so of course it would be impossible for it to betray its master and contact the outside world.

There are innumerable possibilities, and the ancestors are unable to rule them out one by one. Now they can only do their best and leave the rest to fate, hoping that the situation will turn around as soon as possible.

When Wei Dongliu found the Blood Sea Ancestor, he saw that the skinny old man was hiding in a mountain temple in the mountains, kneeling on a cushion, muttering something and silently reciting some secret code.

The Blood Sea Patriarch practiced both Taoism and Buddhism. At this time, he was using a very difficult Buddhist secret technique called "Fate-telling", which could calculate the past karma of all living beings.

Wei Dongliu naturally couldn't recognize him, so he just stood outside the door waiting silently.

Jiang Li thought it was so boring and didn't know how long he had to wait, so he ran away - he would come back to find Wei Mojun after he finished his business.

Soon, the Blood Sea Ancestor did not figure out the whereabouts of the Wanxiang Juexian Sword, but he figured out that Wei Dongliu was waiting outside the door, so he sighed and said:

"Come in."

"Ancestor." Wei Dongxing bowed and said, "I wonder why so many fellow disciples of the Demon Sect have gathered here? Are they going to attack the Shangqing Sect of Mount Shu?"

If they really wanted to attack Shushan, they would definitely use every possible means, and they would never send people up to fight every day... Could the fight be so intense that Shushan would be wiped out? Wei Dongliu had a good motive for asking this question.

The Blood Sea Ancestor glanced at him, but he didn't intend to hide it from him. He just said lightly:

"Not long ago, we calculated that the Wanxiang Jue Xianjian was unearthed in the southwest of Shenzhou, so this Shushan is the main suspect."

Of course, he did not say that "Shura Dao is also a key monitoring target", but simply explained the "motive for the siege of Shushan" as "suspecting that the Juexian Sword fell into the hands of Shushan."

"The Wanxiang Juexian Sword?" Wei Dongliu asked in surprise, "Could it be the Wanxiang Juexian Sword from the Four Swordsmen of Jiejiao in the past?"

"That's right." The Blood Sea Patriarch was upset and sighed, "This Wan Xiang Jue Xian Sword has been missing since the defeat of Jiejiao in the past. Now that it has been unearthed, we must not let it fall into the hands of Shushan. We must find it as soon as possible."

Of course, it would not be good if it fell into the hands of the foreign monks in Shura Road. But this could not be said publicly.

"What are the appearance characteristics of the Wanxiangjuexian Sword?" Wei Dongliu asked seriously.

Seeing that he was willing to share his worries, the Blood Sea Ancestor felt warm in his heart and said patiently:

"The Juexian Sword is roughly the same as the other three swords of Jiejiao. The sword is three feet six inches and two tenths of an inch long, dark gray in color, with serrations on both sides of the blade. It looks ancient and vicissitudes of life."

"What kind of ancient and vicissitudes of life?" Wei Dongliu took out the Wanxiang Jue Xian Sword, "Is it like this?"

"Oh, right, right." The Blood Sea Ancestor took a look and said casually, "Its surface is so dull, like an old piece of iron..."

Then, his words stopped abruptly, like a duck with its throat strangled.

Wei Dongliu laughed secretly in his heart, but said:

"That's great. I happened to be traveling on the plateau the other day and saw this sword flying through the clouds, so I rushed over and seized it."

"Please help me, old man, to look at it."

The Blood Sea Patriarch trembled as he stroked the blade of the Wanxiang Juexian Sword, as if he had never expected to recover it in this way.

Until the Wanxiang Juexian Sword made an angry clanging sound and used the sword energy to knock away the bird claws of the Blood Sea Ancestor.

"You, why didn't you say so earlier!" Blood Sea Patriarch was furious, "Do you want to see us old bones make a fool of ourselves?"

If it were an ordinary cultivator, they would definitely think that the Blood Sea Ancestor was taking the opportunity to vent his anger and wanted to forcibly seize the sword - of course, this also included Wei Dongliu.

But Wei Dongliu had confirmed the history from Kunlun and knew that the Blood Sea Ancestor finally provided protection for Wei Dongliu to hold the sword, so he said calmly:

"That's not my intention. I just had an emergency and went to the East China Sea."

The Blood Sea Ancestor stared at him, his lips moving as he used the Destiny Skill again.

Well, I wasn’t lying. I indeed just returned from the East China Sea.

If I think about it carefully, the fact that he handed over the Wan Xiang Jue Immortal Sword so openly showed that he was not worried that I would snatch it away.

Young Master Wei trusts me so much. If I get hung up on the details, wouldn't I be laughed at by the whole world?

Thinking of this, and thinking that the Mortal Dao actually already had two of the Four Swords of Jiejiao, the Blood Sea Patriarch couldn't help but burst into laughter:

"Good! Good! Good! Wei, you did a great job this time!"

Wei Dongliu was speechless, wondering where he had heard this compliment before.

Are the words and sentences you immortals usually use so poor?
