Chapter 76: The Spark
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
In the following days, Su Yang resumed his daily life. He practiced swordsmanship in his courtyard, but now there were two more people in his courtyard.
The Martial Suppression Division was busy dealing with the aftermath of the Evil Blood Cultivation Sect and didn’t have time to bother him.
Merits needed to be counted, and the people needed to be reassured.
Everyone was busy.
During this time, Su Yang also thought about Ma Wu, who was still recovering from his injuries.
He found a Premium Healing Pill and took the time to deliver it to Ma Wu.
Ma Wu had treated him well in the past, and Su Yang couldn’t forget that.
After giving the pill to Ma Wu and ensuring his injuries would be healed, Su Yang returned to his courtyard and continued his path of swordsmanship.
Next, he needed to go to the capital city, and being at Level 30 was not enough.
Under the tempering of the Body Tempering.Astral Wind, his body was constantly strengthening, and the number of sword strikes increased.
The Evil Blood Cultivation Sect had been dealt with, and the cultivators had returned to the martial world.
Their return brought shocking news to Tianfeng Prefecture.
A Sword Immortal had emerged in Tianfeng Prefecture!
A Sword Master who could slay evil cultivators with a single sword!
Wherever his ten thousand swords passed, the evil cultivators were eradicated!
In the Bai Duan Mountains, he had cleaved a hundred-mile abyss, wiping out all the evil cultivators of the Evil Blood Cultivation Sect!
Tianfeng Prefecture had produced a Heaven Transforming Realm Sword Immortal!
Ordinary people may not know what the Heaven Transforming Realm was, but they knew what it meant to split a mountain with a sword. Such ability could only belong to a Sword Immortal!
The news spread rapidly.
In just three days, the entire Tianfeng Prefecture had already heard about it.
Storytellers had already come up with various versions of the events.
Slicing a hundred-mile abyss in the Bai Duan Mountains was a well-known fact.
But some strange and unknown incidents were also attributed to Su Yang.
For example, in Liufeng City, dark clouds covered the sky in an instant, and a thunderous giant sword descended from the heavens.
In the storytellers’ accounts, it became Su Yang’s doing.
Or in Kaiyang City, where the sun was shining brightly, a torrential rain suddenly poured down. It was said that it was because the Sword Immortal Su Yang couldn’t bear to see the people suffering, so he swung his sword to request rain from the heavens.
These were things that ordinary people believed only immortals could accomplish.
Although they hadn’t witnessed these events, they attributed them all to Su
Yang.
And the rumors began to spread widely.
Some more sensible cultivators treated these rumors as hearsay.
They acknowledged and admired Su Yang for cleaving a hundred-mile abyss with a single sword.
But the idea of thunder and rain coming from a sword seemed absurd to them. How could they believe such things?
Had they not seen the world?
Apart from Su Yang’s strength, his deeds were quickly uncovered.
When the people learned about Su Yang’s words and actions, the entire Tianfeng Prefecture was shaken.
Cultivators didn’t cultivate to oppress the people…
Su Yang brought justice to the noble families and sects that oppressed the people, eliminating them one by one.
The people of Linjiang City received enormous compensation from the Snake Gate, and those who had exploited them, the masterminds and accomplices, were all killed.
Overnight, the people of Linjiang City were lifted from hell to heaven.
And there was a saying that no one’s life was more valuable than another’s.
The lives of cultivators were no more noble or precious than those of ordinary people.
In the eyes of some cultivators, Su Yang was a hero, a respected hero.
In the eyes of the people, Su Yang was no different from an immortal.
But not everyone was satisfied or happy with what Su Yang had done.
Many cultivators voiced their doubts.
They thought Su Yang was meddling too much and being self-righteous.
They didn’t take Su Yang seriously. Who was he to control them?
If he couldn’t stand it, why didn’t he come and arrest them?
However, these people vastly underestimated the impact of this matter. Indeed, Su Yang was just one person, unable to govern all the cultivators across the land.
But his ideals, his thoughts, and his actions had already spread like dandelions throughout Tianfeng Prefecture.
One by one, people with a sense of chivalry or those still in their ignorant years were gradually influenced by Su Yang.
As cultivators of the martial world, they should be like Sword Immortal Su, upholding justice and eliminating injustice!
The spark had quietly been ignited.
Pingshan City
Rejuvenation Hall
“Grandfather… Grandfather… Have you heard? Lord Su Yang has become a Sword Immortal!”
Excitedly, Liu Yurou ran into the courtyard and grabbed Liu Congshan’s arm, telling him about her joy.
“Hey, hey, hey… Slow down, you’re shaking my old bones.” Liu Congshan said helplessly.
He looked at his granddaughter, who was so excited, and his emotions were complex.
He had recognized from the beginning that Su Yang was no ordinary person, but he never expected Su Yang’s rise to be so formidable.
To become a Sword Immortal overnight and ascend to the heavens with a single awakening.
Such a figure… how could they climb so high?
After Liu Yurou calmed down a bit, Liu Congshan expressed his concerns.
He was afraid that his granddaughter would become too deeply involved, and it would be better for her to have nothing to do with it for now.
“Yurou, the stronger Lord Su becomes, the farther away he will be from us.
With our status, we probably won’t be able to see Lord Su anymore.”
“Even if I pass on all my knowledge to you, it still won’t compare to Lord Su’s abilities. ”
Liu Yurou, who was still excited, suddenly froze. The smile on her face disappeared briefly, but then reappeared, although it seemed forced compared to before.
“Grandfather, I understand…
Liu Yurou felt a sudden darkness in her heart… Yes, they were no longer on the same path.
In the future, she would be someone who couldn’t reach the heights of Lord Su.
And she, in the future, would only be the doctor of this Rejuvenation Hall.
Back then, when I pushed my way through the crowded crowd, my heart changed in an instant.
Now, you are still the radiant Lord Su, and I am the lovesick doctor.
Lord Su… I want to return to being the doctor.
“Grandfather, I’m going back to the front hall.”
Liu Yurou turned around, tears the size of beans streaming down her face.
Her young heart withered before it could fully bloom.
Liu Congshan watched his granddaughter with aching eyes. He was an experienced person. How could a little flower like her deserve a true dragon?
Three days had passed, and with the help of the Astral Wind’s possession, Su Yang’s physical body had reached the Eighth Grade.
In one day, he could already unleash thirty thousand sword strikes.
At his limit, he could reach forty thousand sword strikes.
At the same time, in the past three days, his sword intent had reached Level 32.
In terms of his physical body, it would take seven more days to reach the
Seventh Grade.
However, Su Yang was not satisfied with this speed.
He still had the recipe for the Five Poison Body Tempering Medicinal Bath. With his current financial resources, obtaining the ingredients was an easy task.
He had already instructed Gu Xiu to prepare, and they would start the intensified body tempering tonight.
Unfortunately, the better the medicinal bath recipe, the higher the requirements. He could only proceed step by step; otherwise, Su Yang would directly use the best medicinal bath recipe.
The requirement for using the Five Poison Body Tempering Medicinal Bath recipe was to have external cultivation in the Eighth Grade. Therefore, Su Yang prepared the recipe after reaching the Eighth Grade.
At the same time, Yi Tianba and others had already finished counting their merits. Tomorrow, a celebration banquet would be held, with the attendance of renowned sects, official representatives, and official forces.
Su Yang hadn’t forgotten one thing. When these cultivators entered the city, they caused quite a stir.
He had already sent Rong Xiaoshi to register the losses suffered by the people..
