136 Three Questions and Three Answers
“We meet again, my dangerous little friend.” The chair in front of Zhou Yun said slowly. As it spoke, blood continued to flow out of its mouth.
“How was it? Did you feel anything different after the battle with the other Grand Elders? For example, becoming more vigorous in battle, dealing with a danger more quickly, and so on.” As the chair spoke, it slowly walked in front of Zhou Yun.
Zhou Yun carried the Fire Dragon Sword and felt a little dazed. After fighting with the other nine Grand Elders, each fight seemed too perfect.
Facing Yan He’s sudden self-sacrificing sword strike, he made full use of the attack and speed advantage of sword cultivators to kill Yan He. After facing the stone giant, his Saint Fire Mantra cultivation technique just so happened to be better, and he killed the stone giant.
In every battle after that, he seemed to be able to win by chance. It was a dangerous battle where he was just a step away from death.
“Did I really kill all nine of them?” Zhou Yun did not know why, but he felt that something was wrong.
“Little friend, do you like to fight?” The chair suddenly asked.
“Do I like to fight?” Zhou Yun shook his head. If it was possible, he would rather go into seclusion and cultivate. He would rather stroll around the Spirit Valley with Qiao’er and Senior Sister Su Wanyi in his spare time and enjoy the life of a cultivator.
He wasn’t a battle maniac, so why did he have to keep fighting with these heretic cultivators? There were spiritual corpses and dead souls. What’s more, what thousand-year great plan? He didn’t care about that.
Zhou Yun didn’t want to get involved in this. He only wanted to cultivate and become stronger. If it wasn’t for Meng Yuxin’s pressure, Zhou Yun would never have come to a life-and-death battle like this!
“Little friend, you don’t like to fight? So it’s like this. Then, how did you win these nine battles? According to my observation, every battle you fight is very hard. There were times when your life was hanging by a thread, and there were times when your spiritual energy was exhausted. You must’ve felt terrible both physically and mentally. Why didn’t you give up and escape? You challenged a total of nine battles and came before me again.”
“Little friend, why don’t you like to fight?” The chair continued to ask.
Zhou Yun didn’t know why, but he felt like he was in a daze. In his daze, he subconsciously answered the words of the chair in front of him.
“I just don’t want to fight with heretic cultivators like you. But if I need to, even if it’s just to protect my life, I’ll slaughter you all.” Zhou Yun said. He was not that righteous and would not act for the sake of the world.
“So that’s how it is. This is the reason why you took action.” The chair finally came to a stop. It seemed to be unable to move, and the broken face was panting heavily.
“You also know that you’ve already fallen into the sect leader’s great plan. What are you going to do to protect your so-called life?” The chair asked.
This time, Zhou Yun suddenly felt his head clear up. It was as if the dizziness from earlier had completely disappeared. The feeling of being unable to resist answering someone’s question had also disappeared from his mind.
Zhou Yun glanced at the chair and realized that the face on it had already fallen off. The eyes on it had also lost their luster.
“Are you dead?” Zhou Yun was taken aback. The last heretic cultivator had died just like that? Or was it just a clone similar to a spiritual corpse?
Zhou Yun extended the Fire Dragon Sword and slashed it down. The Fire Dragon Sword cut the chair into two without any resistance and the chair was slowly burned by the flames. Even the face on it was burned to ashes by the flames.
“Sizzle!” All of a sudden, the flames on the entire mountain peak began to self-ignite, and the entire mountain peak began to rumble as if it was about to die.
“This mountain is going to collapse! Why? Could it be that the most bizarre-looking heretic cultivator died just like that?” Zhou Yun did not understand. After the heretic cultivator gave him a manual, he only asked a few questions and then died.
Zhou Yun was still doubtful. He rode his sword and rose into the sky. Soon, the mountain collapsed. The last Grand Elder that Zhou Yun wanted to kill had died just like that!
“Ten Grand Elders, but I don’t even know what kind of seven emotions and six desires each of them corresponded to.” Zhou Yun flew up on his sword and looked around. The ten huge mountains had all collapsed. The ten Grand Elders who had been in the Soul Guide Sect for a thousand years had all been killed by him!
“I keep feeling that something is wrong, but I can’t tell what it is.” Zhou Yun felt that it was too simple. Although his life was hanging by a thread every time, he just so happened to win! Not to mention the last Grand Elder of the Soul Guide Sect. It was as if he had something to tell him!
“How do I protect my own life?” Zhou Yun murmured the Grand Elder’s last question. Actually, after Zhou Yun was captured by Meng Yuxin, it was not the first time he had thought about this.
Zhou Yun felt that the world of immortal cultivation was much crueler than the real world. He was not strong enough and had been looked down upon when he entered the Spirit Valley. Even if he had worked hard to cultivate, he had to endure the provocation of the villains because of his insufficient realm.
Due to his lack of strength, Zhou Yun had even lost his ordinary life as a cultivator. He could only be led by the nose by Meng Yuxin and let her do whatever she wanted!
“If it’s possible, I naturally want to become stronger! I’ll become so strong that no one can interfere with my current life!” Zhou Yun said.
At this moment, Zhou Yun seemed to feel a sense of peace in his heart. Many of the negative thoughts that had arisen from his imprisonment gradually disappeared at this moment.
“Clear thoughts? At that moment, I felt as if my entire body has been sublimated. In just a short while, my spiritual energy became purer, and the Saint Fire Mantra also improved a bit.” Zhou Yun clicked his tongue in wonder. He did not expect that other than sudden enlightenment, he would actually have a moment of clarity.
“Even though I don’t understand what these ten Grand Elders are for, I’ve completed Meng Yuxin’s request. I just need to wait for Meng Yuxin to come out of the inheritance ground.” Zhou Yun looked around and finally chose a place with more spiritual energy to cultivate.
Along the way, Zhou Yun also wondered why the Soul Guide Sect still had spiritual energy. He had also wondered why the ten Grand Elders’ cultivation levels had regressed so much even though they had spiritual energy and could cultivate.
However, due to the pressure, Zhou Yun did not think too much about it. Now that the ten Grand Elders were dead, Zhou Yun naturally would not think too much about it.
All he needed to do now was to make the best use of his time to cultivate before Meng Yuxin came out of the inheritance ground!
In order to return to his normal life of cultivation, Zhou Yun would not give up any opportunity.
He did not forget that there were still countless spiritual corpses attacking all the sects in the world!
Meng Yuxin had even given him the mission of a world savior!
