You're Already Old

"Kid, are you toying with this Ancestor?"

At this moment, the phantom behind the Blood Refining Ancestor spoke with a trace of anger in its voice.

Li Zhōujūn said in surprise, "Didn't you say that even this avatar of yours was invincible in the present age? Why are you backing down now?"

"Hmph, you glib-tongued brat, die!" The blood-colored phantom snorted coldly. A massive blood-red palm clenched into a fist and came crushing down upon Li Zhōujūn with the force of ten thousand tons.

At the same time, the system issued a mission.

[Ding: Detected that the Blood Ancestor does not take the host seriously at all. The system has issued a mission: the host must shock the Blood Ancestor to receive an unbelievable reward!]

Hearing the system issue its mission, Li Zhōujūn immediately understood. The system wanted him to show off again.

Thus, Li Zhōujūn sneered. "A mere Blood Ancestor, and you really think yourself unrivaled beneath heaven? Today, this Mountain Lord will broaden your horizons and let you know what it means for the waves behind in the Yangtze River to drive the waves ahead onward—the waves ahead get slapped to death on the beach!"

The moment Li Zhōujūn said this—

The blood-colored phantom froze. He had not expected Li Zhōujūn to know who he was. Not only did he know him, but he looked down on him so utterly. Instantly, his rage flared even further. "Good brat! You know it is this Ancestor, yet you still dare be so arrogant? This Ancestor would like to see whether you truly possess such strength!"

As the Blood Ancestor's furious voice rang out, the descending giant fist became several degrees more fierce. Its terrifying aura directly drained the color from heaven and earth, making the hearts of the Nangong Three Sisters below the mountain race up into their throats.

Seeing Li Zhōujūn so confident, the Old Beggar in the sky was also somewhat astonished. This young man seemed far from simple...

Just as the Nangong Three Sisters and the Old Beggar watched the Blood Ancestor's giant fist descend—

Li Zhōujūn made his move. Faced with the Blood Ancestor's falling giant fist, he did not retreat, but instead threw a punch in counterattack.

This punch was plain and unadorned, as though it were merely the punch of an ordinary man.

Yet when this utterly ordinary punch collided with the Blood Ancestor's descending giant fist, it let out a thunderous boom.

A storm swept outward in every direction with Li Zhōujūn and the Blood Ancestor at its center, shattering the void and creating streak after streak of black fissures!

This exchange ended in a draw!

Yet Li Zhōujūn's expression remained casual and composed.

"What?!"

The Blood Ancestor was incomparably shocked as he watched Li Zhōujūn effortlessly receive his punch. Even though this was only an avatar of his, it still possessed strength absolutely at the perfected Tribulation Crossing Stage.

For this brat to take that punch without changing expression, could his cultivation have reached the Mahayana True Immortal realm?!

[Ding: Congratulations to the host for completing the mission and successfully shocking the Blood Ancestor!]

[Ding: The system has issued the reward, "Automatic Cultivation!"]

[Automatic Cultivation]: The host's cultivation techniques can cultivate autonomously!

"Automatic Cultivation?!" Li Zhōujūn's eyes lit up as he looked at the reward the system had issued this time.

But he still had to settle the Blood Ancestor before him first. Li Zhōujūn looked at him and sneered. "You're already old. This is the world of us young people now, so stop coming out to make a fool of yourself."

"Arrogant! Even among those of the Mahayana realm, there are differences in strength. This Ancestor reached the Mahayana realm countless years before you did. Once this Ancestor's true body descends, I will surely tear you, you arrogant brat, into ten thousand pieces!"

After snorting coldly, the Blood Ancestor's avatar could no longer maintain itself after drawing upon such powerful strength, and it began to gradually dissipate.

But at the final moment before it vanished, he heard Li Zhōujūn say, "When your true body descends, remember to call me Dad."

Blood Ancestor: "You seek death..."

Before he could finish speaking, the Blood Ancestor's avatar had completely dissipated.

Blood God Island.

Inside a cave.

An old man clad in a scarlet robe abruptly opened his eyes. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Good brat! You dare look down on this Ancestor so much? Once this Ancestor gets out, if I don't cripple you, then I swear I am not human!"

With the old man's furious roar, the entire vast Blood God Island trembled.

The scene returned to Blood Refining Mountain.

After the Blood Ancestor's avatar completely dissipated, the Old Beggar above Li Zhōujūn sighed. "Since when did Azure Continent produce such a young Mahayana True Immortal? It seems this old man truly is getting old. Time to wander the mountains and rivers..."

As his voice fell, the Old Beggar gave Li Zhōujūn a slight cupped-fist salute, then his figure gradually faded away.

The reason the Old Beggar saluted Li Zhōujūn was that he believed that, unlike the Blood Ancestor's avatar, whose strength was insufficient to notice his arrival, Li Zhōujūn, with his Mahayana True Immortal cultivation, must certainly have detected him. That was why he offered a salute before departing.

What he did not know was that Li Zhōujūn had no idea a person had suddenly appeared above him at all.

"This Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord is actually a Mahayana True Immortal?!"

At this moment, the Nangong Three Sisters all stared at Li Zhōujūn atop the Nine Dragon Chariot with shocked expressions.

After all, even the Blood Ancestor had personally acknowledged Li Zhōujūn's cultivation!

This was a Mahayana True Immortal!

If he established a sect, it would absolutely be no weaker than the Dao Tian Sect—perhaps even stronger, because this was a living Mahayana True Immortal!

"Mountain Lord, spare my life!"

At the same time, the Blood Refining Ancestor looked at Li Zhōujūn in terror. When the Blood Ancestor had suddenly appeared earlier, he had been unable to control his body, but the scene of Li Zhōujūn fighting the Blood Ancestor had still unfolded before his eyes.

"Die!"

Li Zhōujūn sneered. The nine dragons beneath his feet spat out nine streams of frost. In an instant, the Blood Refining Ancestor, along with his Nascent Soul, was frozen into an ice sculpture. Then, amid a series of cracking sounds, he shattered directly into icy fragments.

The Blood Refining Ancestor had fallen!

Yet the system had not issued the reward for destroying the Blood Refining Sect, which meant his task was not yet complete.

So Li Zhōujūn tapped the air with his fingertip.

With a sharp whoosh, a streak of sword light flew from Li Zhōujūn's index finger and transformed into the Ao Xue Flying Sword.

"Go kill everyone in the Blood Refining Sect," Li Zhōujūn directly instructed the Ao Xue Sword.

Having received its command, the Ao Xue Flying Sword charged excitedly into the Blood Refining Sect and began slaughtering with wild abandon.

"We, the Nangong Three Sisters, pay our respects to the Cloud Dwelling Mountain Lord. Thank you, Mountain Lord, for saving us!"

At this moment, the Nangong Three Sisters flew to a spot not far before Li Zhōujūn and clasped their fists in unison.

Only at such close range did the Nangong Three Sisters clearly realize just how terrifying the pressure exerted by nine Void Immortal-level flood dragons truly was.

Just then, the Ao Xue Flying Sword flew out of the Blood Refining Sect and transformed into a woman in a blue-and-white gown embroidered with blooming cold plum blossoms.

Her backward glance and smile could bring forth a hundred charms, leaving the rouge and powder of the six palaces without color. Merely standing there made the Nangong Three Sisters feel somewhat ashamed of their own inferiority.

"Master, everyone in the Blood Refining Sect has been dealt with by Ao Xue. However, I found some surviving ordinary people and cultivators in the dungeon," said the woman transformed from the Ao Xue Flying Sword.

[ Ding: Congratulations, Host, for completing the mission: Destroy the Blood Refining Sect! ]

[ Ding: The system has issued the reward: 'First-Grade Azure Frost Sword!' ]

[ Ding: The system has issued the reward: 'Azure Frost Sword Art!' ]

[ Ding: The system has issued the reward: 'Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivation!' ]

As Ao Xue revealed that the Blood Refining Sect had been destroyed, the system issued its rewards. Looking at them, Li Zhōujūn thought to himself that he could teach the Azure Frost Sword and the Azure Frost Sword Art to Sū Nán.

Then Li Zhōujūn said to the woman transformed from the Ao Xue Flying Sword, "Very good. Return."

"Yes, Master," Ao Xue replied, before turning into spiritual light and entering Li Zhōujūn's body.

At the same time, the Nangong Three Sisters thought, So this is what they call a Sword Immortal—at a single thought, a flying sword can kill from a thousand miles away. With just one thought, he had his flying sword wipe out the entire Blood Refining Sect...
