Chapter 255: Gossiping

How is this possible the third elder muttered in incredulity.

Indeed. How is this possible? Everyone else in the Spirit Heaven Sect were shocked too.

The first elder and the second elder exchanged shocked looks. Even they couldnt hope to catch the third elders flying sword with such ease!

Rise! the third elder suddenly bellowed as he channeled his spirit ki into his flying sword.

Clang clang clang!

The flying sword vibrated violently in Fang Chens grasp as it attempted to break free, producing a sound reminiscent of metals scraping against each other. Sparks flew everywhere.

Cant you calm down a little?

Fang Chen flicked his finger, and the flying swords tip shattered.

Pu!

The third elder spewed blood.

Unlike normal artifacts, ego artifacts had a tighter bond to their master. Due to that, any damage sustained by the ego artifact would rebound to its master too.

What kind of means is that?! The first elders heart skipped a beat.

How could a body of flesh and blood shatter a 12 daosoul imprints flying sword so easily?!

You seem awfully confident in your swordsmanship? Fang Chen looked at the third elder and scoffed. But you cant even protect your flying sword. What gave you the guts to act so proudly as to refuse to even look at me?

The third elders face reddened. He had been humiliated before the entire Spirit Heaven Sect!

Who are you? Why dont you tell us if our Spirit Heaven Sect has offended you in any way? The first elder cleared his throat and tried to clear the air.

Ill get to the point then. Your sect master and the Flying Eagle Sect Master colluded with the Qing Province Sword Sects First Elder Yao Dan to coerce Abbess Moonchaser into giving in to their demands, Fang Chen smiled.

Yao Dan and the Flying Eagle Sect Master are dead now, but your Spirit Heaven Sect Master managed to get away. However, thats not an issue. Its unlikely that shell return any time soon, so you should think of her as dead.

The Spirit Heaven Sects cultivators couldnt believe what they were hearing.

Those were all Foundation Establishment cultivators! In particular, the Qing Province Sword Sects Yao Dan was known to be particularly powerful. Their third elder even visited Yao Dan many times to consult him on issues relating to swordsmanship, such that Yao Dan could be considered as half his master

The two Foundation Establishment cultivators were chatting here. One was at early Foundation Establishment, whereas the others aura felt much stronger.

Mid Foundation Establishment? No, its more than that. Hes likely to be at late Foundation Establishment. Fang Chen looked at the stronger cultivator with contemplative eyes.

This cultivator's aura was stronger than anyone else he had ever seen.

The South Heaven Sects Elder Jinnan was a mid Foundation Establishment cultivator, but this cultivators aura far surpassed him. Thus, he deduced that this cultivator was at late Foundation Establishment.

The two of them know how to enjoy themselves.

Fang Chen eyed the delicacies laid out on the jade table, as well as the lit spirit incense sticks. He chuckled.

Flood Dragon Island Master, I have sent the word out. They will report to the City Lord Manor as soon as they spot that junior, the Spirit Heaven City Lord said with a smile.

Mm. The Flood Dragon Island Master nodded. Im counting on you.

The two of them appeared to be scheming against someone. Fang Chens curiosity was piqued.

Then, the Spirit Heaven City Lord channeled his spirit ki into a jade seal, and Fang Chen saw his face appearing in mid-air.

He isnt a cultivator from our Infernoblaze, right? the Spirit Heaven City Lord asked.

Dont bother. I dont know where hes from either. All you need to know is that he has offended our Sea Dragon Sect, and the only fate awaiting him is death, the Flood Dragon Island Master sneered.

It felt weird to stumble upon his own gossip. Fang Chen took a closer look at the Flood Dragon Island Master.

It went without saying that this person was one of the Sea Dragon Sects island masters, similar to the Blue Mountain Island Master. However, this Flood Dragon Island Master was clearly much stronger, being at late Foundation Establishment.

Such prowess was enough for him to run unchecked in Infernoblaze!

With his strength and his background, even the South Heaven Sect and the Beast Spirit Valley would have to show some respect to him.

What are my odds if I go against a late Foundation Establishment cultivator? Fang Chen wondered.

Thus far, he had killed three early Foundation Establishment cultivatorsthe Blue Mountain Island Master, Yao Dan, and the Flying Eagle Sect Master. They were at the same cultivation stage, but the Blue Mountain Island Master was significantly stronger than the other two.

Even so, the Blue Mountain Island Master still instantly died in the face of the Eight Barrens Immortal Subjugation Peerless Swordsmanships first form. This suggested that it might be enough to deal with mid Foundation Establishment cultivators too.

But if I go up against a late Foundation Establishment cultivator I dont stand a chance at all.

Fang Chens face turned grim.
