Chapter 345 Something Happened, the Difficulty of the Martial Saint
On this day, a piece of news spread from Leishan. At the Leishan Martial Arts Conference, Leishan exploded, and the Leishan Heavenly Skill, which had not been comprehended for thousands of years, also disappeared along with Leishan.
The entire Beiding Continent was shocked by the news, and all kinds of speculations arose.
Because in Beidingzhou, it can be said that all the martial kings, no matter how strong or weak, have gone to Leishan to gain enlightenment.
Of course, along with the spread of this news, there was also news that Wei Fan appeared in Leishan, first killed the core disciples of Zhilan Sect, and then killed Tian Qiuping, the disciple of the Martial Saint of Huoyun Cave in Nanhengzhou.
This piece of news also caused quite a stir in Beidingzhou, because in the news, Wei Fan had already reached the seventh level of Martial King. It was only a little over a month since the Lin Yao City incident, and he had already become a powerful seventh level Martial King.
The exaggerated speed really shocked many people. Of course, there were also many people who thought that Wei Fan was hiding his skills before.
"No news yet?"
In Zhilan Sect, the great elder Sun Tao felt a little uneasy and had a bad feeling.
Originally, he had hired Hei Ming's killer to kill Wei Fan. He didn't want the Zhilan Sect to deal with Wei Fan anymore. He just needed to wait for Hei Ming to kill Wei Fan. After all, Wei Fan had made great contributions in Lin Yao City, and they were also in the wrong in the grudge between them and Wei Fan.
If the Zhilan Sect killed Wei Fan blatantly, even if the Demon Hunter Organization did not intervene, some self-proclaimed righteous Demon Hunters would still intervene.
But who would have thought that in Leishan, Wei Fan killed two core disciples of Zhilan Sect and harmed a ninth-level Martial King elder. It was impossible not to look for Wei Fan.
If he didn't seek revenge on Wei Fan, everyone would think that the Zhilan Sect was afraid of Wei Fan, and anyone would dare to kill Zhilan Sect disciples in the future.
Of course, the reason for his uneasiness was that such a long time had passed, and logically Hei Ming should have taken action against Wei Fan, but Wei Fan was not only alive and well, but also went to Leishan to discuss martial arts.
Did Hei Ming's men not attack Wei Fan yet, or did Wei Fan kill Hei Ming's killer? A few days ago, they sent a ninth-level martial king expert to kill Wei Fan for revenge, but today they heard that Wei Fan's true level was seventh-level martial king, and that he had killed the disciple of Huoyun Cave's martial saint Tian Chunqiu at the Leishan martial arts competition.
In other words, the information he had previously possessed was not accurate. Wei Fan's cultivation was not at the fourth level of Martial King, but at the seventh level. Not only might Fang Nanfei and the others he sent meet with an accident, but the information he provided to Hei Ming was also incorrect.
"If Hei Ming's assassin has already taken action and failed..."
Thinking of this, Sun Tao couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
Hei Ming is not someone to be trifled with. If he provides wrong information that results in the death of Hei Ming's killer, he himself will be in trouble.
"Don't worry. Wei Fan might still be in Thunder Mountain. There are many people there. If we attack without thinking, it will cause unnecessary trouble if it affects others. Fang Nanfei and the others should still be waiting for the opportunity. With the cultivation level of the three of them, even if Wei Fan is at the seventh level of Martial King, there is a high chance that he will be killed."
The second elder reminded that people from other continents would come to participate in the Leishan event, and there would be a large number of disciples from the Holy Sect. Unless they had no choice, few people would dare to take action in such a crowded place.
Warriors are all brave and daring. Once they are caught in a fight, they will inevitably explode. Among the saint gates, the Zhilan Sect is not the strongest and cannot afford to offend a bunch of saint gates.
Sun Tao nodded. Indeed, even if Wei Fan had reached the seventh level of Martial King cultivation, the combat power of Fang Nanfei and the other two was enough to kill Wei Fan.
"Great Elder, something bad has happened. The soul tablets of the three elders Fang Nanfei, Sun Yongyi, and Zhang Yongxiang have been cracked."
Suddenly, the disciple who was guarding the Soul Palace came running over in panic.
"What did you say?"
Sun Tao and the second elder stood up at once, their expressions changed drastically.
"Something happened!" Sun Tao looked grim.
If the soul tablet is cracked, it means the owner's death.
The death of three ninth-level Martial King elders was a huge loss for the Zhilan Sect. Moreover, even with the death of three ninth-level Martial King warriors, it was highly likely that Wei Fan was not killed.
"Even if he is at the seventh level of martial king cultivation and has that woman by his side, he can't kill Fang Nanfei and the others!"
You must know that the one sent out this time is not the first-tier Ninth-Layer Martial King who died in Leishan that day, but a top-notch master of the second tier. Even if Wei Fan has that powerful woman by his side, the two of them can suppress him together, and the remaining one person is enough to kill Wei Fan.
But the result was that all three martial kings died.
"I have a friend in Leishan. I'll ask him what's going on."
The second elder flipped his wrist, and a jade communication token appeared in his hand, and he began to communicate with his friends.
In fact, the news that Wei Fan had reached the seventh level of Martial King cultivation was just brought by his friend.
As a holy sect that has dominated Beidingzhou for many years, Zhilan Sect naturally has many friends and many ways to obtain news.
After a few breaths, his expression changed.
After the communication ended, he put away the jade token and said solemnly, "Fang Nanfei and the other two did go to kill Wei Fan. Wei Fan had a terrifying cauldron on him, whose power was almost comparable to that of a holy weapon. He killed the three with that cauldron."
"We should let them bring the holy soldiers down the mountain!" Sun Tao's face showed regret, but he was worried about hurting Fenghua, because that was someone the Zhilan Sect could not afford to offend.
"Great Elder, what should we do now?" The Second Elder looked at Sun Tao with murderous intent on his face: "Only by bringing the Holy Soldiers down the mountain to kill this group of people can we restore the reputation of our Zhilan Sect."
At first, they just wanted to kill Wei Fan in order to please someone, but as things have developed, three core disciples of Zhilan Sect have died at the hands of Wei Fan, and three are elders of the ninth level of Martial King. Although the last one was killed by Feng Hua, the blame should also be attributed to Wei Fan.
"I have something urgent to do down the mountain now. We can talk about Wei Fan's matter after I come back."
Sun Tao naturally wanted to kill Wei Fan now, but he was more anxious about Hei Ming. Wei Fan was a Martial King of the seventh level, and he had to inform Hei Ming about the big cauldron first.
Because Qingbai mistakenly killed Hei Ming's killer, it might bring disaster to Zhilan Sect. This matter is much more urgent than killing Wei Fan.
As he spoke, he hurriedly left Zhilan Sect.
…
On the official road, Fenghua and Zhihua were talking to Wei Fan about something about the Holy Gate.
After killing Fang Nanfei and the other two, he wondered why a dignified Holy Sect only sent three Martial King Nine-Level warriors to kill him. Logically speaking, a Holy Sect that has existed for thousands or even tens of thousands of years should have dozens or even hundreds of Martial King Nine-Level warriors.
Only three were sent out, and it was obvious that no one was available.
During the conversation, Fenghua mentioned that in the Holy Gate, the Son of God can only serve for a hundred years. If he cannot break through to the level of Martial Saint within a hundred years, he will be replaced.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
This was the first time Wei Fan heard this news.
He always thought that the Holy Son of the Holy Sect would definitely take over the position of the Sect Leader in the future, because the Holy Son must be the most talented person in the sect, and the position of the Sect Leader could only be taken over by the Holy Son. He never thought that there would be such a thing as being driven out.
He looked at Fenghua in confusion and said, "If that's the case, then aren't there a bunch of replaced Saints in these Saint Sects? The Zhilan Sect has existed for so long, there must be at least a dozen former Saints who were driven out. Why don't they send these Saints to kill us?
If they had sent someone like this, we wouldn’t know who would have killed whom today.”
King Wu has a lifespan of one or two thousand years, but can only be a Holy Son for one hundred years. From this, it can be inferred that among those Holy Gates, there are probably ten or twenty Holy Sons who have been replaced.
Including the true disciples and core disciples, there are more than dozens of powerful men who have reached the ninth level of the Holy Gate.
The Martial Kings sent by the Zhilan Sect to kill him were not only of not the best quality, but also few in number. If seven or eight of them attacked together, even with the Xuanhuang Ding, it would be hard to say who would kill whom.
Feng Hua shook his head and said, "That's true in theory, but the Saint Sect will also fight with others and people will die. Take the Zhilan Sect for example. You killed three core disciples in a short period of time.
In fact, in ordinary holy sects, there are only a dozen or so warriors at the ninth level of Martial King, and some can have more than twenty.
Of course, the Saint Sect’s ninth-level warriors are not in line with the theory, and fighting with others is not the main reason, and not many people will die. "
Wei Fan was stunned: "Then what is the reason that the ninth-level Saint Sect Martial King is so different from the theory?"
Fenghua looked at Wei Fan. Sometimes she was actually speechless about Wei Fan. He mastered the Three Emperors Sutra, Five Emperors Fist and other peerless martial arts, and even had the mysterious golden bell that could kill evil spirits. He had a lot of secrets that were impossible to see through.
Many times, she suspected that Wei Fan had a peerless old monster master teaching him, but Wei Fan didn't know many common sense things at all.
You said that you came from the wilderness and didn't know anything about the five major domains, but you didn't even know something as crucial as the Martial Saint.
"Because it's about reaching the Martial Saint realm!"
She said in a deep voice, understanding that Wei Fan probably had almost no understanding of the realm of Martial Saint, which was why he thought that in the Saint's Gate, due to the accumulation of time, there would be dozens or hundreds of Martial King Nine-level strongmen, and a bunch of Saint Sons who were rotated out.
Wei Fan's eyes narrowed: "Because of the impact on the Martial Saint realm?"
Feng Hua's tone became serious: "Becoming a Martial Saint is not as simple as you think. The process of becoming a Martial Saint is not only difficult, but also extremely dangerous.
Let me put it this way, out of ten people who were trying to reach the realm of Martial Saint, almost half of them failed and became Taoists, dying on the spot.
As for the remaining half who are still alive, even if they are lucky enough to survive, they will suffer a loss of blood and energy, and their essence will be severely damaged, resulting in a sharp reduction in their lifespan. They will not live for more than a thousand years. Among a hundred people, there are only three or four who fail in the attack without paying any price.
King Wu said that he could live for two thousand years, but in the martial arts world, it is almost impossible to find a King Wu who lives more than a thousand years old.
Do you think those three ninth-level martial kings of Zhilan Sect are weak? In fact, they are not at their peak at all. Although they survived the process of attacking the martial saint, their foundation was also damaged.
You see, they look like they are over a thousand years old, but in fact, these three people should be only two or three hundred years old.”
Wei Fan was shocked. It turned out that the process of breaking through to become a Martial Saint was so terrifying. The chance of death was so high that even if one did not die, he would be half-crippled.
In other words, most of the ninth-level Martial Kings encountered were already half-crippled, and those who were not crippled were the worst third-tier Martial Kings.
