[Bite!]
[Main quest completed: Reunited with Xiao Zhao. What about becoming the Holy Maiden of the Ming Cult? The Demon Cult just happens to need a witch.]
[Quest reward obtained: Blazing Sun Divine Technique (Perfect Version)]
Ye Zhuo mastered the technique to Perfect Subtlety Stage an instant.
Walking down the street, I still wanted to see the flames burning within me.
Unexpectedly, flames engulfed the sky.
Endless.
In the blink of an eye, it covered everything visible to the naked eye.
"Oh no, I almost forgot, only the normal version has three feet of flame, the perfect version is even stronger, let alone me!"
Ye Zhuo quickly extinguished the flames.
[Main quest unlocked: Capture Zhou Zhiruo before the Battle of Bright Summit ends, teach her Supreme Yoga, and make her a disciple of the Demon Cult]
[Quest Reward: Xiao Li's Flying Dagger (Perfect Version)]
Um!
Ye Zhuo's eyes lit up; he was now very curious about the Eight Heavenly Saber Forms, a side quest reward.
Yet, he was also pleasantly surprised by Xiao Li's Flying Dagger, a weapon that seemed to defy the laws of Karmic Cause and Effect.
It should be noted that Li Xunhuan was fond of drinking, and was often melancholic and in a bad mood. Under such circumstances, his physical condition should have been very poor, and his martial arts skills should have declined significantly.
Yet every strike still manages to hit the enemy.
Unless you have a lot of blood, it's always a one-shot kill.
Under such circumstances, it's hard not to suspect that Xiao Li's Flying Dagger is actually a weapon based on Karmic Cause and Effect.
The thing that the Ancient Martial World is most proud of is naturally being able to dodge Xiao Li's Flying Dagger.
Unfortunately, everyone who touched it perished.
Xiao Li's Flying Dagger never misses its mark!
"Very well, let's find Yang Buhui first, then capture Zhou Zhiruo."
Ye Zhuo quickly led everyone to a secluded place.
Yang Buhui is hiding here. If the Ming Cult is defeated and wiped out at Bright Summit, she will leave quietly and collect Yang Xiao's remains later.
If the Ming Cult wins this battle, Yang Buhui will return to Bright Summit immediately.
At this time.
She was anxiously waiting, she couldn't afford to lose!
My father, Yang Xiao, is one of the Two Xiaoyao of the Ming Cult; how could he be easily defeated?
"Little girl, who are you waiting for?"
Ye Zhuo stood in front of Yang Buhui, and more than ten figures immediately surrounded him.
What are you going to do?
Yang Buhui sensed that something was off about the atmosphere.
"I am Ye Zhuo, the leader of the Demon Cult, and I have come to the Ming Cult for a visit and exchange."
As Ye Zhuo joked, Xiao Zhao also took off her robe.
Yang Buhui was already suspicious, became even more certain that the people in front of him were no ordinary people. He was furious and wondered if the six major sects had joined forces to invade this place.
That shouldn't be the case.
With so many female disciples, the Mount Heng Sect must have risen to prominence in the last ten years or so under Miejue Shitai's tutelage.
But Ye Zhuo didn't look like the Miejue Shitai at all.
Could there be something else going on?
In the blink of an eye, a variety of guesses flashed through her mind, and countless countermeasures were in her head.
"Xiao Zhao, you traitor!"
Yang Buhui was furious; she was determined to get some information out of Xiao Zhao first.
"Noisy."
Ye Zhuo patted her shoulder.
"Why bother with scheming? Why not cultivate the Jade Maiden Manual instead!"
Ye Zhuo disliked such schemes and tricks, so he decided to cultivate first and then take her as a disciple!
No sooner said than done.
Under the power of the Heaven and Earth Great Shift, Yang Buhui could only cultivate passively, and in the blink of an eye, his true energy circulated through his meridians.
I felt my cultivation level improving.
He immediately felt relieved and unconsciously coordinated his internal energy circulation, gradually immersing himself in martial arts.
I don't know how much time passed.
Yang Buhui awoke from the dream, her eyes filled with tears, a mixture of gratitude and grievance.
"Yang Buhui thanks the sect leader!"
"Yang Buhui, you've joined the Demon Cult, do you regret it or Buhui?"
Buhui!
[Bite!]
[Hidden quest completed: Take Yang Buhui as your disciple, proceed to the Bright Summit battlefield]
[Quest reward obtained: Eight Heavenly Saber Forms (Perfect Version)]
The Myriad Heavens Role-Playing System rarely issues hidden quests.
Generally speaking, this means the task rewards are quite generous.
And this time, it was just as expected.
Ye Zhuo slashed towards the main hall with one hand, and the powerful sword intent transformed into a vast ocean in an instant, leveling everything in front of him.
"Master, what kind of palm technique is this?"
Yang Buhui mistakenly thought that Ye Zhuo had just used some kind of palm technique.
"As fierce as the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms!"
Li Qingluo had seen all the martial arts in the world, possessed the knowledge stored in her family, and had access to many unique skills of the Carefree Sect. She thought she was knowledgeable about both ancient and modern times, not to mention that she had lived for hundreds of years since following Ye Zhuo.
"Strange, more like a fusion of the Flame Blade and the Six Meridian Divine Sword."
Wang Yuyan also found this palm technique strange, sensing the aura of a weapon within it, something that could never be found in the mortal world.
The world is vast.
Ye Zhuo must be an astonishingly powerful being.
This sword technique incorporates countless martial arts styles. For example, the White Rainbow Palm Power of the Carefree Sect can transform true qi into palm force, allowing it to move freely in the air.
In addition, he gained enlightenment through the practice of swordsmanship techniques such as the Solitary Nine Swords, the Golden Snake Manual, and the Hu Family Saber Technique.
The immense power of top-tier martial arts techniques such as the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms.
This allows Ye Zhuo's Eight Heavenly Saber Forms to reach a new level beyond the perfect version.
"No, this is not a palm technique."
It is a sword technique from the Tang Dynasty. Since the Tang Dynasty, martial arts have been in decline.
"Not to mention this sword technique, even Li Taibai's Taixuan Manual, and the Yi Jin Muscle-Tendon Changing Classic Li Jing, no one could truly master it."
Ye Zhuo's words were very clear.
The further you progress in martial arts, the more powerful it becomes.
For example, the Yue Maiden Sword Technique seems extremely simple; it is merely an imitation of the White Ape's movement techniques.
In reality, its power is astonishing. If it weren't for the swordsmanship of Ye Zhuo and Dugu Qiubai, it would be impossible to achieve its true essence.
Imitating the White Ape is merely an outward appearance.
The essence of Yue Maiden Sword Technique lies in its ability to adapt to changing circumstances and to No-Move Triumphs Over Moves.
Too many people are now fixated on individual moves and techniques, which has long since deviated from the original intent of this swordsmanship, naturally diminishing its power.
Going back several hundred years, the martial arts of the Han Dynasty were even more formidable. There were even sorcerers and magicians who roamed the world, and there were many who practiced medicine to help the poor.
Even in the pre-Qin era, practitioners of Qi cultivation continued to search for blessed lands and rare materials in various places in an attempt to refine elixirs of Longevity Dao.
Decline.
It's nothing more than a struggle between man and nature, against the heavens and the earth.
"Climb the mountain, reach the summit!"
Ye Zhuo gracefully, like a fairy.
Yang Buhui, like Xiao Zhao, also changed into a black robe.
Following behind Ye Zhuo, the group rose into the air and soon arrived at Bright Summit, a key location of the Ming Cult.
At this time, the six major sects had already arrived here to demand an explanation.
Miejue Shitai also arrived with the Mount Heng Sect, her gaze intense.
They all had some degree of grudge against the Ming Cult, but some of these accusations were fabricated.
"Zhiruo, go!"
Miejue Shitai was no match for Zhang Wuji, she noticed the flirtatious exchange between him and Zhou Zhiruo.
Even without the Heavenly Sword.
Moreover, he went from being an Emei Sect to becoming a powerful figure in the Mount Heng Sect, which was founded earlier.
Miejue Shitai remained as aggressive and eccentric as ever.
"Take this sword!"
Zhou Zhiruo thrust out her sword, but instead exchanged flirtatious glances with Zhang Wuji.
From the moment she insisted on thrusting the sword, obeying her master's orders, it meant that their future was destined to be a tragedy.
Fortunately, Ye Zhuo came along.
There will be no more tragedy for Zhang Wuji and Zhou Zhiruo.
Because Zhou Zhiruo is about to become a disciple of the Demon Cult!
