Chapter 515: The Mount Shu Sect Will Rise Again!(II)

When Jiang Yuebai entered the hidden realm, she was surrounded by a beautiful sea of flowers.

The vibrant colors of the flowers bloomed all around her.

Without hesitation, she activated a stealth traversal technique, blending seamlessly into the vibrant sea of flowers that surrounded her.

Before long, a senior sister from the previous generation glided through the air, surveying her surroundings keenly.

She was about to continue on her way when something caught her attention. Suddenly, she turned back, narrowing her eyes at the spot where Jiang Yuebai was hiding, suspicion flashing across her face.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuebai realized that the senior sister had picked up on something unusual. She knew that she could no longer remain hidden in this spot.

While her opponent was still unaware of her exact location, she quickly lifted a large section of the sea of flowers.

With the activation of the Heaven-Raising Sword, she thrust her weapon forward! As she was the weaker one, she knew she had to unleash her most powerful divine technique right from the start!

Even in the face of the sudden attack, the senior sister remained remarkably calm.

Without showing any sign of distress, she raised her hand and pressed forward, conjuring a black hole that effortlessly swallowed the massive, fierce sword light.

However, after deflecting the attack and raising her hand to strike at Jiang Yuebai, the senior sister suddenly realized that Jiang Yuebai was no longer putting up a fight.

With a single swing of her sword light, the senior sister easily severed Jiang Yuebai at the waist.

Swoosh—

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Yuebai's figure shattered into a flurry of falling petals.

Jiang Yuebai had always been a master of illusory techniques, stealth traversal, and transformations. As she navigated through the vibrant sea of flowers, she moved like a shadow, evading her pursuer with grace.

Each time the senior sister lunged to attack, Jiang Yuebai skillfully slipped away, vanishing and reappearing like a whisper in the wind.

If it weren't for the coastal boundary, Jiang Yuebai would have likely escaped by now.

The senior sister shifted her focus, realizing she needed to take things seriously. If she didn’t give it her all, this junior sister would continue toying with her.

Just as she spotted Jiang Yuebai again, thunder rumbled ominously overhead. A flicker of frustration crossed her face before she vanished, reappearing a second later in a different location.

"Our locations changed?" Jiang Yuebai muttered.

In the very next second, the senior sister found herself in the center of a snowy, icy landscape.

A somewhat confused young man in fine clothes appeared right in front of her.

...

Chu Liang blinked a few times, staring at the senior sister who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Confusion washed over him as he tried to make sense of the situation.

Just moments ago, he had been contemplating on the ways to reach the center of the coast without being noticed.

Suddenly, a loud rumble echoed in the sky, and he found himself in an entirely unfamiliar location.

And standing about ten zhang away in front of him was a senior sister from the previous generation.

What kind of surprise is this?

Given that he had no knowledge of the senior sister's abilities or strength, he had no intention of engaging in a fight.

Instead, the first thing he did was leap onto his sword and take off into the sky, fleeing without a second thought.

In this vast, icy landscape with no cover, hiding was futile. Instead, he launched a swordlight straight into the distant sky, propelling himself forward.

Only as he ascended did he catch a glimpse of the full expanse of this world.

In this hidden realm, four massive islands stood, each representing one of the four seasons—spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

These islands encircled a central sea, and it appeared that they were periodically shifted to different locations, moving at regular intervals.

The rainbow-colored pillar of light stood as the sole constant in this hidden realm, always radiating from the center of the sea.

Since he was already soaring through the air, he decided to go all out and dash toward the pillar of light! Although it was quite a distance away, with his incredible speed, he knew it would only take him a moment to reach it!

Upon witnessing how incredibly fast Chu Liang could fly on his sword, the senior sister was taken aback. Even when she gave it her all to chase him, she could only keep track of his movements; no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't catch up!

His sword-riding technique was so remarkable that it rendered the difference in their cultivation realms nearly irrelevant.

At this moment, Chu Liang showcased his prowess as the champion of the Flying-Sword Race. With astonishing speed, he shot like lightning toward the center of the sea!

However, as he soared high in the sky, his presence became far too conspicuous. Suddenly, two sword lights shot in from different directions, blocking his path with equal speed!

To make matters worse, someone unleashed a divine technique, summoning a massive wave that surged ahead of Chu Liang, creating an impenetrable barrier!

As expected, his plan wouldn't work.

The sea's surface was far too wide and open.

Flying over it was nothing short of a trap. The moment anyone attempted to cross, they would find themselves surrounded and captured.

If Chu Liang hesitated for even a moment, he would be facing all three opponents at once.

Every possible escape route in the sky had been blocked, and it felt like he was on the edge of being cornered.

In that moment, he suddenly dove downward, his swordlight plunging toward the sea!

"Noooooooo!" The three disciples from the previous generation shouted in unison.

They thought Chu Liang had no idea what was lurking beneath the sea. If he were captured, it would only mean failure in the trial. But if he fell into the sea, there was a chance that he would die.

Swish—

However, Chu Liang was obviously more clear-headed than they had expected. He glided over the water's surface like a dragonfly, causing ripples while remaining above the surface.

"

Roar—

"

As expected, a massive dragonfish leaped out of the water! One after another, vicious creatures surged up from the sea, creating a frenzy of churning waves that splashed around them!

The situation on the sea suddenly became very dangerous.

Vicious beasts started leaping out of the water, attacking anything that crossed their line of sight.

In that moment, Chu Liang and the three disciples from the previous generation were all flying in the air, instantly becoming targets of these ferocious creatures.

Boom, boom, boom—

As the vicious beasts surged from the water one after another, the others could only dodge frantically.

𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

In contrast, Chu Liang deftly maneuvered in various directions, making it seem as though he was struggling far less than the other three.

Although his attempt to reach the pillar of light had failed, he successfully made his way back to the icy, snow-covered island.

As they returned to the island, it was clear that the three would not let Chu Liang off the hook easily.

However, the three who followed him immediately noticed something extremely strange.

The young man had vanished.

The three searched the entire island back and forth. The snowy expanse offered no cover; if he had used a stealth technique, there should have been some traces of his aura left behind.

Yet, he was simply gone.

It was odd and perplexing.

"The disciples of this generation have some skills," one of the men remarked. "Earlier, Senior Sister Zhu and I encountered one as soon as we landed and managed to capture him. Aside from that, it seems we've had no success so far."

"Take it slow," the woman said with a frown. "As long as we keep an eye on the exit, we'll eventually track them down."

As the three continued their fruitless search, thunder rumbled in the sky once again.

Rumble—
