Chapter 1364 – Border Cliff Saint is My Right Arm

In Bounded Zero Place, the Eye of Eternal Night descending and crushing a small world fragment instantly became the highlight.

The World of Darkness and Mysterious Clan retreated back and the rogue cultivators who gathered from the Vast Brightness World had no choice but to disperse.

Like a grand movie finale, they had witnessed exciting scenes but they did not know who the actor was.

The Vast Brightness World cultivators did not leave empty-handed. From this, they learnt that the World of Darkness and Mysterious Clan had hidden cards and they needed to be careful in the future. Additionally, they also met their acquaintances again.

For instance, Soaring Sky from Transcendent Sword Sect met up with three others. They were Folded Kite Half-Saint disciple Rice Paper, Guiding Chapter Academy Ruan Jing, and Zhou Lei from the Ancient Thunder Domain. After experiencing the Endless Sea together, they shared secrets and hence, they were naturally on good terms.

When they met again, they felt each other’s auras and they could sense the improvement from each other. Among them, Soaring Sky’s sword intent was contained and unreleased, but it felt like he could unleash the sword and split the sky at any time.

Zhou Lei’s skin was dark but when he laughed, his pearly white teeth flashed. He raised his hand and there was a crushing pressure instantly. A soft boom of thunder could be vaguely heard from his hands.

Ruan Jing gripped his fists. He felt like he had been lagging behind the two.

As for Qin Yu, he had already shot to fame and he was now the Mister Ninth of the Peach Garden who was on the level of a True Saint.

Rice Paper did not seem to have a strong aura. However, from her smile and how she was very comfortable with Soaring Sky and Zhou Lei, she was definitely hiding her true strength.

This also meant that Ruan Jing was now the weakest among the four. For the confident Ruan Jing, this was hard for him to accept. However, it was the fact and he had to accept it.

The four of them were gathered together and they could feel the danger in Bounded Zero Place. Hence, they decided to group up and protect themselves. Before long, the space vibrated suddenly in front of them.

Zhou Lei exclaimed, “Space Target!”

Soaring Sky, Rice Paper, and Ruan Jing frowned slightly and they concentrated. A coordinated seal appeared in their minds at the same time. It was very far, but more importantly, the four people felt a very strong aura simultaneously.

It was very dangerous!

This did not scare them but they were excited. A Space Target would not pop out of nowhere.

Who was it? Where was this Space Target going to lead them to?

A short while later, the four people exchanged looks. Ruan Jing was the first to speak, “I suspect that this is related to the World of Darkness and Mysterious Clan.”

The three others nodded, sharing similar thoughts.

Before, the World of Darkness had called forth the Eye of Eternal Night and it annihilated an entire small world fragment in a single blow. Thinking about this, they shuddered.

Ruan Jing was the first to speak again, “I want to go there.”

Zhou Lei hesitated before he nodded, “Me too.”

Rice Paper looked at Soaring Sky.

He frowned and did not speak.

Rice Paper said, “Before I met you guys I wasn’t sure if we had improved after this time. I am sure that you guys are unsettled too. It feels like something massive will happen. There is an invisible aura in the air that is crushing us.”

Zhou Lei looked at the three others. He said in a deep voice, “Not long ago, Master advised all the disciples to quicken their cultivation. He predicted that something big would happen!”

“So it seems like everyone feels the same way. Something big is going to happen.” Ruan Jing slowly spoke. He stared at Soaring Sky, “I have a strong feeling that this is the last chance given by the heavens for us to improve our strength. If we can become strong, we will be able to survive the calamity. Otherwise, we will perish and we will be ousted by the heavens.”

“Soaring Sky, you are the strongest among the four of us. If we miss this chance, you will outpower all of us. We might be killed in the calamity by the heavens.”

Soaring Sky finally said, “It is not that I am fearful. However, we will become enemies with the World of Darkness. If we are discovered, you guys will be dragged into the conflict.”

Rice Paper sighed and rolled his eyes, “I thought it was something worse! Don’t worry. It won’t just be us who will be going over this time. There are so many people. The World of Darkness cultivators will not notice you.”

Since that was the case…

Soaring Sky sighed, “Alright then.”

Boom!

The four people gathered their strength together and forcefully opened a path.

At the same time, a similar scenario played out in many places around Bounded Zero Place. People were smart and they could guess that something happened where the Space Target was.

They had to take the risk in order to reap great rewards. Furthermore, those cultivators who came to Bounded Zero Place were mostly daring individuals.

The space outside the Mountain of Flames suddenly seemed to pour. Layers and layers of waves appeared in the air and figures appeared.

Li Zhouyi still could not find his target and his face was as black as charcoal. He was already in a bad mood but the Mysterious Clan pointed fingers and interrogated him.

The Space Target originated from the small world fragment where the World of Darkness cultivators were. Regardless of the reason, the World of Darkness had to take responsibility.

“Everyone shut up unless you want to start a war right now!” Li Zhouyi shouted and his eyes were filled with anger, “No one wants to see the Vast Brightness World cultivators. The most important thing we have to do now is to kill them. There is no point blaming each other!”

Cultivators from the World of Darkness and Mysterious Clan both jumped in shock at Li Zhouyi’s outburst.

Although rogue cultivators from the Vast Brightness World were the weakest force among the three parties in Bounded Zero Place, a Ruler had signed an agreement and hence, they were not eliminated from this place.

A Ruler had interfered and this was a well known fact. If they killed the Vast Brightness World cultivators here, there would be major consequences.

Li Zhouyi smirked as he glanced at the crowd. He mocked, “Are you scared? Did you guys think about what would happen once the existence of the Mountain of Flames was discovered by their Ruler?”

Number 327 stepped out of the crowd. With a serious expression he echoed, “That’s right. We must not let any Vast Brightness World cultivators who came here today escape alive!”

They had spent a lot of time and effort and they could confirm that the Mountain of Flames was the only place left that had not been searched thoroughly. This meant that the Ruler’s treasure, if it existed, was there!

This matter must never be revealed. Even if they angered the fragmented area Ruler, it would be worth it. After all, so what if the fragmented area Ruler was triggered? Did he think there would be no consequences if he killed them? Although the West Desolate and Mysterious Clan could not do an outright invasion, it was possible for them to harm Rulers.

Li Zhouyi and Number 327 both spoke and no one dared to offend them. Hence, the two big camps allied together and decided to kill the Vast Brightness World cultivators.

“Kill them all!”

“Don’t spare anyone!”

“Everyone who intrudes must die!”

“Come on!”

A wave of roars came as the Mysterious Clan, and World of Darkness cultivators attacked the incoming Vast Brightness World cultivators.

The grand battle began!

Qin Yu was expressionless. He had not thought about it much beforehand, but when he saw the battle, he wondered if he would feel some guilt and regret.

Then again, he was only leaving a way out for himself. It was their choice to come here and they could not blame anyone.

Furthermore, there was a huge opportunity here lying in the blazing Inextinguishable Flame.

“There is something!”

“Look at that Mountain of Flames. The World of Darkness and Mysterious Clan are here because of it!”

“Come on. We have to let them know that the Vast Brightness World cultivators are not to be messed with!”

Looking at the Mountain of Flames and having seen the two parties' reaction, the Vast Brightness World cultivators could confirm the key reason why they were lured here. No one was willing to leave.

It was obvious that the two camps were not going to let them leave alive too. What else was there to think about?

They would give their all!

The massacre started and the scene was chaotic. Vast Brightness World cultivators were trying to save their lives while the two camps were out to kill and silence them.

Qin Yu’s eyes swept the battlefield and he was pondering his next actions. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed. They were here too!

In the battle, Soaring Sky brandished his sword and a magnificent wave of sword intent rushed out. With three strikes, he cut down the World of Darkness cultivators in front of him. Beside him, Rice Paper, Ruan Jing, and Zhou Lei were strong too and they killed their opponents easily.

The four of them were gathered together and slowly, other Vast Brightness World cultivators started to go closer to them too. Grouping together was their best defense and they easily took care of World of Darkness cultivators and Mysterious Clan cultivators.

Li Zhouyi sensed something and he whipped his head around. His expression suddenly changed and he gritted his teeth as he shouted, “You!”

He recognized that darn swordsman. Everything started because of him. It would be a lie to say that Soaring Sky was unrelated to it all.

In the midst of battle, Soaring Sky’s expression darkened and he felt danger. He lifted his head and met Li Zhouyi’s gaze. He grunted, “Let’s go!”

Rice Paper, Ruan Jing and Zhou Lei nodded and the four of them quickly sped away.

Li Zhouyi’s face was cold and he shouted, “Trying to run away? Don’t you dare!” He must capture that swordsman. Perhaps he could find out something from him.

Qin Yu extended his arm and blocked him, “It is too chaotic now. Your Highness, you cannot take action too recklessly or you will give others a chance! I will take care of these men and capture them for you.”

He gestured, “You guys, come with me. We will take care of these Vast Brightness cultivators together!” With that, he turned and dashed off.

The World of Darkness cultivators who had been called forward by Qin Yu hesitated. However, After Qin Yu gave another stare, they followed along.

Li Zhouyi was silent as he looked at the men who flew off in gratitude. Among the three True Saints who came, only Border Cliff Saint was sincere to him. He encouraged me and also helped me to take care of matters voluntarily.

It seemed that he was mistaken. Border Cliff Saint was his right arm!

Li Zhouyi was someone who would repay kindness. Since Border Cliff Saint treated him well, once Li Zhouyi had gotten through this, he would repay Border Cliff Saint. This would let everyone following him know that Li Zhouyi valued his men.

Qin Yu closed down on the people very quickly and he crushed anyone who stood in his way. The four people who were fleeing wore ghastly looks and they glanced at Qin Yu with a horrified expression.

So strong!

They were no match for him!

“Run!”

The four people ignored the crowd around them and they ran off as fast as they could. It was obvious that the World of Darkness sent someone strong to take care of them. Trying to protect the others was a disservice to themselves.

A look of admiration crossed Qin Yu’s face. These guys were smart. In today’s world, blindly helping people would eventually land you in hot soup.

“He he! Where do you think you are going? Stay!” He laughed madly. Qin Yu glanced behind him and then continued his chase. Because of this, the group left the battle scene very quickly and they headed towards the Mountain of Flames.

The killing intent behind them remained strong despite how fast they ran, and they could not shake their pursuers off.

Soaring Sky looked behind. Ruan Jing and Rice Paper had pale looks and they were not fast enough. This was their limit.

Unless he abandoned the two, he would not be able to escape today. The Transcendent Sword Sect’s principals did not encourage this. Furthermore, he knew that this was his responsibility. Sighing deeply, he said, “We can’t escape. Let’s work together to finish this!”

A look of gratitude crossed Rice Paper’s eyes. She could see that Soaring Sky still had strength left. Her lips twitched and she said, “Back then, Qin Yu killed a Saint before he was one. Do you think we can compare to him if four of us work together?”

Ruan Jing shook his head, “Qin Yu killed a Half-Saint back then. This saint must be a True Saint.”

Zhou Lei spoke, “So what if he is a True Saint? This is Bounded Zero Place. Cultivation does not really matter. My Old Ancestor told me that within Bounded Zero Place, he could take on a few True Saints! Also I want to say that although Qin Yu killed a Half-Saint before, he has killed a True Saint too. And till today, he isn’t a Saint yet!”

After these few sentences, their pursuers were already here. ‘Border Cliff Saint’ smirked, “Not running anymore? Then I will send you guys on your way here!”

He lifted his hand and a terrifying killing intent exploded.

The World of Darkness cultivators who chased after them panted as their expressions fell. If Border Cliff Saint was this strong, they did not need to do anything anymore.

Boom –

His palm pressed down and the massive force rolled out like a tsunami.

The World of Darkness cultivators’ jaws dropped and their eyes bulged open. Border Cliff Saint’s target was them.

“Ah!”

Without any means to defend themselves, the unprepared men screamed as they were killed instantly.
