It's Like Seeing Myself When I Was Young

Tonight, the slaughter on the Crosscut Mountain had been prepared by thousands of threads and tendrils, forming a huge net that was so dense that it could not be seen through.
The protective magical formation was activated to the extreme. On every road that led to the Clasping Yuan Sect, there were people intercepting outsiders. The patrolling guards and duty on the mountain were ten times more strict than before.
These cultivators were powerful enough to block most of the oncoming hordes, but they were unable to block the Subsage who was rushing towards Yufeng.
“That scholar from the academy might have a high cultivation level, but he doesn’t even know how to take out a sword. It’s not enough to pose a threat.”
“Void Temple has come all the way here to hide from the world, so I was too indifferent. Who rules the world, whether it’s a dao or a devil, he doesn’t care that much ...”
This was what Rong Zhuo had said to Yu Shi long ago.
His tone was casual, but in his words, there was a trace of insanity that no one placed in their eyes.
Even so, they had still changed the Clouds Formation to deal with the potential enemies of the Asian Sage Realm. They had hidden their auras and confused their heaven’s secrets, directing the gazes of these two people towards the meteorite abyss.
If the Headmaster and the Mage Wu Wang wanted to come, they would have to make arrangements. They would have to pay a price to delay these two as long as possible.
The night was boundless, with no stars and no moon. The red clouds shone brightly.
In the blink of an eye, he had broken through a gap in the sea of blood.
The enormous stone seal cast a shadow over the sea of blood, a vast pressure that covered the sky and the earth.
There was a protective magical formation of the Boat Sect here that could communicate with the Power of the Heavens and the Earth. The stone seal shouldn’t have come so fast.
Yu Shi instantly felt something. His expression changed as he looked toward the young man who had arrived at the peak of the mountain.
With a frown, he asked, “Are you trying to bully me to exterminate my ancestors?”
His tone was not heavy, but there was an intimidating pressure like a sword that came chopping down from above.
Blood trickled from the corners of the young man’s mouth.
He did not block the sword strike from his previous life but only withstood it with a calm expression.
His sleeves fluttered in the wind as his hands quickly formed a seal, and the sea of blood surged with great waves.
He could break the stone seal, but it would take time.
But the longer it went on, the more variables there were.
Zhou Yuandao had already stood up.
Even though it was always urgent, Yu Shi calmed down and said to the young man,
“You should not interfere in this matter.
“Let’s go down.”
The meaning was simple. You are not qualified to be here, but I will let bygones be bygones if you go down the mountain now.
This was already the biggest concession he could make to Yu Shi Yan. Anyone should be grateful to him for accepting it.
But the young man did not move.
A foul wind blew from the sea of blood, lifting his dark blue Daoist robe.
For the rest of his life, he had never expected that the greatest variable would be Lin Yuangui.
Just like when Jun Yu was at Cangya Mountain, Lin Yuangui also had control over half of the protective magical formation.
Lin Yuangui did not know about tonight’s assassination, nor did he know how to calculate. However, he was able to guess a few points from the red clouds and the clear light in his realm.
Even though he had ordered that no one should come to the summit tonight, Lin Yuanqi still wanted to come up, so why would he dare to stop him? Those elders could not stop him either.
He came to the mountain, saw the sea of blood, and then weakened the protective magical formation.
Without the slightest hesitation.
The rest of his life was not Lin Yuangui’s master, he did not have any relationship between master and disciple.
However, Lin Yuangui was very valuable to the sect, so he could not die so easily.
At least he couldn’t die right now.
At the very least, he had to do something for the sect.
“Now that you are so powerful, you want to become a traitor who forgets his name?”
Another sharp sword intent went right through the young man’s chest, and fresh blood was gushing out.
Lin Yuangui’s expression did not change. He did not block nor did he retreat.
He did not block it not because Yu Shi was a Saint, but because he was an elder of his sect.
The reason why he didn’t retreat was because of his principles.
He had been in closed-door cultivation for many years. He didn’t know why the Sect Leader colluded with the Demonic cultivators to kill Zhou Yuantao, but he knew that this was not right.
No matter how many reasons and considerations he had, it was still wrong if he was wrong.
Yu Shi’s expression became even colder. He raised his sleeves and was about to throw this ungrateful thing down the mountain.
A sliver of a looseness appeared in the sea of blood that was as thin as hair. He withdrew his undisciplined smile and raised his hand to point at the youth holding the sword.
However, they suddenly met a pair of eyes.
It was as dark as the night and as deep as the abyss.
It was Luo Mingchuan who had already broken through the boundary.
In an instant, the blood sea began to ebb back into the current, and Rongzu fell into darkness.
It was like the ancient and pure darkness before the beginning of time.
It was the depths of the Meteor Abyss.
Rong Zhuo felt that it was inconceivable that he had been pulled into the arena by the other party.
Endless amounts of demons rushed out and began to bite his flesh.
It was as if he had no sense of pain, and strangely, he felt a sense of excitement. Was this the Nine Heavenly Revolutions Heaven?
Was this the reincarnation of a Demon Lord?
The stone seal shattered into pieces within the sword qi of the remaining life. The fragments were as fine as the fine powder, floating in the air and not dissipating.
Yu Shi suddenly felt a change at the top of the mountain. He wanted to take a step back, but his body froze in the blink of an eye.
Someone from the Blood Sea walked over. The long sleeves of his robe fell to the floor.
It was Mr.
The teacher truly did not know how to hold a sword. He considered himself a scholar.
The soldier was ominous, and the scholar had no choice but to use him.
Mr. Yuan held Zhou Yuan Dao in his arms.
In the past, his battle prowess was insufficient to fight for the rest of his life.
But tonight, he had used up too much of his remaining life. Be it his spirit or his sword intent, they were no longer at their peak state.
After being seriously injured by Wei Jingfeng, Yu Shi had been able to reconstruct his meridians with the help of Rong Zhuo. He had entered the demonic path, and although he appeared to be extremely powerful, he was unsteady in the air.
This sort of fickle-like power was something that he couldn’t afford to exhaust the most.
They all understood this fact, so no one took action first.
For the rest of his life, he was thinking about the possibility of allying with the school.
On the other hand, the young man looked at Zhou Yuandao and took out a medicinal pill.
Zhou Yuan shook his head.
What broke the silence and stalemate were two shouts.
“Senior Brother!”
“Master!”
Among the crowd at the summit, he was the first to see the pale-faced Luo Mingchuan.
The one who called him master was Cheng Tianyu. With just a glance, he saw that his entire body was covered in blood.
It was like a stone striking a flat lake. The sword aura that was as destructive as the sea flashed, straight towards the point where the Yin Biyue overpass the face of the enemy.
His speed was too fast; there was no way to dodge.
Yin Biyue did not even have the time to draw his sword, the shadow of death descended upon him.
In the blink of an eye, Mr. Headmaster appeared in front of the blade of the sword.
Yet another stone seal clashed against it.
“BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM!
Crack lines appeared on the surface of the stone seal.
Facing an opponent who wasn’t far off, speed and strength couldn’t be considered equal.
Yu Shi attacked Yin Biyue, targetting the Mr. Head Supervisor.
He had guessed right, the school would save Yan Qianyi.
In the next moment, the smile in his eyes froze, because a sword was stabbing at him from behind.
It was fast and light, like a flying feather.
At the last moment, his protective true essence had been knocked away from the edge of his sword. Only then did it not pierce through his heart meridian, and instead pierced into his scapula.
He had never imagined that Zhou Yuandao, who was clearly on the verge of death, would be able to strike with his sword.
This sudden change caused the stone seal in the palm to no longer shatter. Instead, it flipped through the air and forced Yu Shi back three steps.
The last scene Zhou Yuandao saw was the still childish Cheng Tianyu running towards him with the Flying Feather Sword in his hand.
It was like seeing himself when he was young.
He thought of Song Tang and Zhong Shan.
Remembering how he had seen the heavens and earth in his life, battling demons and teaching his disciples, there was nothing to feel regretful about.
“Master ...”
Zhou Yuan smiled. He wanted to say, “Master will leave first, don’t worry about it. I will leave the rest to you. After that, you can just wait for the scabbard to hit your hands.” But he did not have the strength to do so.
He opened his mouth and only said the word ‘good’.
