Chapter 520: Daoist Xia, Are You Serious?

Fairy Yu smiled at Fang Chen. "Lord, it's quite lively around here. There are thirty-three Immortal Seedlings in total."

Each of these Immortal Seedlings surpassed Jing Yuehan by far. Yet now, they are actually joining forces to deal with her and Fang Chen. This made her feel a bit emotional.

The lord has actually reached this sort of level in less than twenty years....

Fang Chen smiled. "Heavenly King Zhen's Manor is quite impressive to be able to summon dozens of Immortal Seedlings so easily."

"We aren't only here because of Heavenly King Zhen's Manor. We also want to see who can slay Immortal Seedlings so easily for ourselves," said the Seven Profound Sect's Meng Tianshu lightly. "I wish to spar with you. If you can deal with me, I'll leave immediately and won't block your way again."

Another Immortal Seedling frowned, and he turned to look at Meng Tianshu with disgust. "Meng Tianshu, isn't this inappropriate? We agreed to cooperate. What's with your change of heart?"

"I just want to exchange pointers with a strong opponent. My purpose in coming here is different from yours. You cooperate to achieve your goals, and I'll do my thing. We are completely unrelated," replied Meng Tianshu indifferently.

The other Immortal Seedling sneered in a low voice. "There’s nothing surprising about this. An Immortal Seedling from the Seven Profound Sect wouldn't have much brains."

Meng Tianshu didn't mind being mocked. The Seven Profound Sect was indeed much weaker than most of these Immortal Seedlings' sects. But what did it matter to him? In the end, one had to walk the path of immortality alone.

The background of the sect was just an accessory.

Fang Chen smiled. "Are you really planning to fight me one-on-one?"

"It's not exactly a fight. I'll just make one move," Meng Tianshu said lightly. "I know my limits. If this move can't stop you, then I have no means to deal with you."

The others looked slightly intrigued. As if they had figured something out, they turned to look at Meng Tianshu with doubt.

Yun Tai quietly asked, "I heard that the Seven Profound Sect obtained a sword technique from the Ancient Immortal Road?"

"Yes, I heard that a sword technique has emerged from the Ancient Immortal Road."

Another nodded lightly. "We couldn't confirm it before, but looks like the rumors are true."

"Your Heavenly King Zhen Manor also sent someone to contact Meng Tianshu before, trying to recruit him. But this guy is quite proud and apparently rejected your manor's goodwill." The speaker chuckled. "He might not realize that becoming an Immortal Seedling is just the beginning. With the strength of the Seven Profound Sect, nurturing a true Immortal Seedling might be beyond their capabilities."

It can now be confirmed that the Eight Desolation Supreme Sword Scripture originated from the Immortal Realm, from the former master of Little Sword.

That was a legitimate immortal technique. And Meng Tianshu had also mastered an immortal technique!

Facing this blade momentum that seemed to cut through everything and shatter the void, Fang Chen's thoughts merely flickered. A golden hand reached out from the void, stopping the blade's momentum.

Crack!

The blade momentum shattered.

Fang Chen smiled and nodded. "Thank you for going easy on me."

The surroundings fell somewhat silent, and many of the young immortals looked on in astonishment.

After Meng Tianshu released that blade, his face turned a little pale. However, when he saw Fang Chen stop his blade's momentum easily using the Five Elements Controlling Technique, his face turned as pale as paper. In fact, brief confusion even appeared in his eyes.

At that moment, everyone watching the fight on the Heaven Profound Mirror went silent. Some started even rubbing their eyes, thinking their eyes were playing tricks on them.

After the shock subsided, Meng Tianshu slowly came to his senses. He looked at Fang Chen with anticipation and said, "Daoist, the technique you just used was the Five Elements Controlling Technique, wasn't it?"

Fang Chen lightly nodded. "That was indeed the Five Elements Controlling Technique."

Hearing Fang Chen's reply, the last shred of hope in Meng Tianshu's heart shattered. Face turning rigid, he slowly turned to leave, his steps resembling those of a Walking Corpse.

The people around could hear him murmuring, "My blade technique was shattered by the Five Elements Controlling Technique. What's the use of me practicing blade techniques then? Why! Why!"

Seeing how Meng Tianshu's spirit had been broken, Fang Chen smiled and called out, "Daoist Meng, a single loss is enough to shatter your state of mind? Can't you come at me another time to redeem yourself?"

Meng Tianshu's eyes regained clarity. He paused slightly. Turning to look at Fang Chen and the surrounding young immortals, he said seriously, "Daoist Xia, are you serious? Are you sure you can leave here alive today?"

Fang Chen replied with a smile, "I'll live longer than you, I'll tell you that much."

"Hahahahaha!" Meng Tianshu suddenly burst into wild laughter. He nodded at Fang Chen and said, "Until next time then."

With that, Meng Tianshu walked away. In a few steps, he disappeared from everyone's sight. The difference was that, this time, his steps had become much firmer.
