Chapter 99: A Turning Point Appeared
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
Suyang was flying rapidly when suddenly he felt that something was amiss.
Why was his reflection appearing in the entire sky?
He looked at the long sword behind him.
“Is this your doing?”
“I believe that the actions of Sword Immortals are worth promoting and known to the world. Since I became conscious, I have observed and realized that to spread a certain spirit, it needs to be disseminated, known to the world. Only then will it continue to inspire people, encouraging them to inherit this spirit. For instance, in the past, the appearance of a great hero during a certain period influenced the martial artists of an era, making most martial artists admire and aspire to become heroes themselves…”
“You’re right, but I don’t want you to take matters into your own hands without consulting me first.”
Suyang calmly spoke; he didn’t like things getting out of his control.
“Understood.”
Feeling Suyang’s displeasure, the consciousness of the Heavenly Path quickly apologized.
After giving the Heavenly Path a mild rebuke, Suyang noticed something.
A new opportunity had quietly emerged.
Among the nine Foundation Establishment cultivators he had been observing, one of them had changed their course suddenly upon seeing the sudden changes in the entire Qingzhou region.
They were flying rapidly in a certain direction.
This abrupt change immediately caught Suyang’s attention.
In the past eleven days, these nine individuals had been relatively quiet, almost hiding away and keeping a low profile.
Slightly paying attention to this particular person, Suyang didn’t bother with it and continued flying over Qingzhou.
About two hours later, the Foundation Establishment cultivator with unusual behavior arrived at a special location.
Judging from the situation, it was likely the Qingzhou Immortal Union.
This Qingzhou Immortal Union was indeed not in Qingzhou, just as Suyang had speculated.
The Qingzhou Immortal Union was located in the neighboring Cangzhou. When Suyang saw this scene, he could only say,
“Wow, you guys are really good at hiding. The Qingzhou Immortal Union is not in Qingzhou. No wonder I couldn’t find you in Qingzhou. Just wait, when I restore Qingzhou, it will be your end.”
Up to this point, He Chuan found it hard to believe everything he had witnessed.
He actually watched as the nearly lifeless Qingzhou was rapidly recovering.
Most importantly, the one who restored all of Qingzhou was that Great Xia Sword Immortal?
Such methods were terrifying, but he believed that this couldn’t have been accomplished by the Great Xia Sword Immortal’s power alone.
During this period, he had been gathering information about the Great Xia Sword Immortal.
Suyang’s information was not concealed, so he quickly investigated it.
From Suyang’s rise to prominence, He Chuan initially had only one thought. Suyang had a secret!
Now, he guessed that this secret might be related to the Fragment of the Heavenly Path.
Indeed, with Suyang’s strength, even if he reached the Martial Saint realm, he wouldn’t have been able to restore Qingzhou from its near-death state. To achieve this, not even the Golden Core realm of the Celestial Sect could do it. Only the Heavenly Path of this world could possibly accomplish it.
After discovering this information, he immediately rushed to the Qingzhou Immortal Union to report this news.
The so-called Qingzhou Immortal Union was established by core disciples of the Celestial Sect. They were only there to cultivate their strength.
Everyone in the Qingzhou Immortal Union knew that the Celestial Sect was searching for traces of the Heavenly Path Fragment. As long as someone discovered and reported it, they would receive great rewards.
Someone had discovered it earlier and had been greatly rewarded, improving from the early Foundation Establishment stage to the late Foundation Establishment stage.
Now, he had discovered it and was certain to receive a great reward.
Thinking about this, He Chuan was very excited. He quickly used his identity token to enter the hidden immortal mountain of the Qingzhou Immortal Union.
He immediately reported this news to them.
Inside the Qingzhou Immortal Union, the news spread quickly. However, just like before, the founder of the Qingzhou Immortal Union was in a critical period of breaking through to the Golden Core stage, and they couldn’t act recklessly.
They could only put it on hold for now.
They would discuss how to deal with Suyang after this core disciple completed the breakthrough.
Inside the Qingzhou Immortal Union, there were not just one or two core disciples of the Celestial Sect.
There were also some followers of core disciples.
They knew a bit about Suyang’s strength, and with his possession of the Fragment of the Heavenly Path, they understood that even if their master broke through to the Golden Core stage, he would definitely not be a match for
Suyang.
They needed to ask for help from the Celestial Sect.
However, this was not something they could decide. Whether to ask for help or not depended on their master’s breakthrough. They would have to wait.
Time passed quickly, and half a day had gone by.
In this half-day, the people of Qingzhou had already fallen into a frenzy.
Qingzhou… had been restored!
It had returned to its appearance from over a decade ago!
Not one year ago, but ten years ago!
Ten years ago, Qingzhou had started experiencing droughts.
It began with a small area.
When the imperial court discovered it, they started dealing with the demonic cultivators.
After a decade of conflict, it was clear that the imperial court had lost, and Qingzhou had turned into a desolate land. Until recently, within the last year, it had slowly fallen into a state of lifelessness.
Now, under the restoration of the Great Xia Sword Immortal, Qingzhou had recovered!
How could the people of Qingzhou not be overjoyed?
Many older residents couldn’t help but shed tears.
No one understood better than them how much effort they had poured into this land.
For them, this was their home…
As Qingzhou was being restored, the people of Qingzhou noticed a change in the sky.
The Great Xia Sword Immortal had left Qingzhou and was heading toward the neighboring Cangzhou.
Seeing this, the people were curious about where the Great Xia Sword Immortal was going.
They watched as the sky rapidly changed, and soon, they arrived at a towering mountain.
This mountain was shrouded in white clouds, and an ethereal aura enveloped it. If there were white cranes circling the mountain, it would undoubtedly be an immortal mountain.
At the moment of their curiosity, a sword intent that tore through the sky appeared, instantly piercing through the layers of white clouds surrounding the mountain, revealing the pavilions on the mountain.
The sword intent hadn’t dissipated yet when it landed on the mountain, leaving a sword mark, and several pavilions collapsed within it.
Within the Qingzhou Immortal Union, the cultivators gathered there were dumbfounded.
They had been discussing how to deal with Suyang, but how had Suyang come to them so quickly?
They quickly realized and glared angrily at He Chuan.
“It’s you! You brought him here!”
He Chuan panicked and waved his hands, “No, it couldn’t be me. If it were me, he would have arrived much earlier.”
Hearing He Chuan’s explanation, the others frowned, finding some truth in his words. Moreover, their current priority was dealing with Suyang, so they couldn’t pursue this matter further.
“Keep an eye on him and kill him if there’s any sign of trouble.”
A disciple of the Celestial Sect gave the order, and immediately, someone kept a close watch on He Chuan.
Wei Minghao swiftly flew into the air and activated the mountain-protecting formation. A milky-white cloud gathered beside him, giving him the confidence to confront Suyang.
“Great Xia Sword Immortal, I’m curious how you found this place?”
Suyang had just broken the illusion formation on this mountain and encountered another protective formation. Furthermore, someone had arrived not far in front of him.
He Chuan hadn’t said anything, but Wei Minghao already spoke out.
“And you’re saying it wasn’t you!’
Wei Minghao glared at He Chuan with a fierce expression.
“I ‘m innocent…,” He Chuan’s heart raced rapidly.
Without waiting for him to explain, Wei Minghao unleashed a martial technique, causing a swift change in the weather, gathering winds into an attack that instantly blasted He Chuan.
Suyang paid no heed, whether this person lived or died would be determined in a moment. He didn’t have a high-level of guilt on his conscience, so it didn’t matter.
With his perception enveloping the area, the highest level among those present on this mountain was only at level 30.
“Even though you found your way here, what can you do now…”
Wei Minghao had just finished speaking when he saw a burst of sword intent erupt, instantly piercing through the mountain-protecting formation.
He looked at the formation token in his hand.
It shattered…
What could he do?
Suyang couldn’t be bothered with their words.
With just a thought, a vast sword intent surged from within him, shooting straight into the sky, covering the entire mountain. In an instant, the clear sky was shrouded in dark clouds..
