Chapter 103 Earthly Fiend Divine Weapon

Guiyuan Peak.

Guiyuan Hall.

Yun Lingzi stood inside the hall with a grim expression.

He held a long sword covered in cracks in his hands.

Several streaks of black and blue light flowed across the sword, seemingly repairing the cracks.

Before long, more than a dozen figures appeared in the hall.

Aside from Yun Huizi, Yun Xiazi, and Han Lingxiao, who are outside the Qi Refining Realm.

There are also other peak masters and elders.

Yunxiazi stared at the longsword, her face filled with horror: "The Taihe Sword! Senior Brother, is it Master Qu Guang—"

F

Yun Lingzi nodded, her eyes filled with sorrow: "Twenty-three years ago, when Uncle Qu Guang was leaving, he planted the Heart-Binding Curse in me."

"With this incantation, even if separated by thousands of miles, the Taihe Sword can return to its source on its own."

""

"But now only the Taihe Sword has returned, and it's in a half-destroyed state. I'm afraid Master Qu is—"

Yun Lingzi didn't finish speaking, but the meaning behind her words was quite clear.

The remaining few also looked sorrowful.

Yunxiazi burst into tears on the spot.

Lu Cheng had already read through the entire history of the Dongyang Sect at Juyun Peak.

If he were here now, upon hearing the name "Qu Guang," he would understand that this person was the previous leader of the Dongyang Sect!

As they were speaking, four more figures flashed into the hall.

All four men had white eyebrows and white hair, and their faces were covered with wrinkles.

Upon his appearance, everyone in the hall bowed and addressed him as "Uncle-Master".

It turned out that several old fellows who had been living in seclusion on Baopu Peak had also been drawn to Guiyuan Peak by this broken sword.

One of them quickly stepped forward, took the longsword from Yun Lingzi's hand, looked it over a few times, trembled all over, and let out a long sigh: "Alas, Senior Brother Qu!"

""

As she spoke, a few tears fell.

After a long while, someone spoke again: "With Senior Brother Qu gone, another person from our Dongyang Sect has to rush to the battlefield of the Five States."

As he spoke, he looked up at Yun Lingzi and the other three.

"I've been clinging to life for many years, and now it's time to stretch my legs. Hmph, let those bastards know that my Dongyang Sect isn't without its share of troubles!"

"It's just a pity that even after years of seclusion, I haven't been able to break through to the Qi Refining Realm. I can't even control the Earthly Fiend Divine Weapon left by my ancestors. It's really—alas."

""

Yunxiazi immediately replied with a hateful voice, "I'll go! I'll definitely avenge Master Qu!"

Yun Lingzi shook his head: "Junior Sister Yunxia, ​​please don't rush things. Our Dongyang Sect has just lost a member, and we still have time to recover. This matter cannot be rushed; we should discuss it carefully."

"The most urgent task now is to send the Taihe Sword back to Taihe Peak for nurturing."

After saying this, he put away his grief, straightened his face, and instructed everyone: "Junior Brother Han, you and Junior Sister Yunxia should arrange the affairs within the peak immediately, and then come with me to Taihe Peak to cultivate the Taihe Sword in seclusion."

Han Lingxiao and Yun Xiazi nodded in agreement.

The Lesser Longevity Technique is balanced and harmonious, while the Great Harmony Primordial Qi Guide excels at harmonizing Yin and Yang. Both of them are at the Qi Refining Realm, making them the most suitable people to assist Yun Lingzi.

"Junior Brother Yunhui, during this period, you will be in charge of sect affairs and will also be responsible for overseeing Taihe Peak. Unless there is an extremely urgent matter, no one is allowed to enter the peak until the three of us emerge from seclusion."

,

Yun Huizi cupped his hands in greeting: "As you command, Senior Brother Sect Leader!"

Yun Lingzi nodded, then instructed Han Che, the peak master of Zixia Peak, "Junior Brother Han, select a few elders with steady personalities to go to the Five Continents Battlefield immediately, find out the details, and bring back Master Qu's remains."

Han Che nodded: "As you command, Senior Brother Sect Leader!"

'

"Junior Brother Wan, Junior Brother Xu, Junior Brother Yun Cheng." Yun Lingzi called out three more people.

They are Wan Sheng, the master of Falling Star Peak; Xu Zhao, the master of Gathering Cloud Peak; and Yun Chengzi, the master of Asking Heart Peak.

The three of them responded in unison: "Yes!"

'

Yun Lingzi ordered, "Many people must have seen the return of the Taihe Sword to the sect. To prevent anyone from having any ill intentions, the three of you will be responsible for the sect's defense during this period. No matter what happens, use strong measures to deter any villains!"

"Yes, as the sect leader commands!"

Yun Lingzi then addressed the four senior disciples who were in seclusion on Baopu Peak: "Four senior uncles, please inform each of the fellow disciples on Baopu Peak who are not in seclusion, and be prepared for battle."

Everyone accepted the order and left.

Han Lingxiao stayed behind until everyone was alone before asking, "Senior brother, what are your plans?"

Yun Lingzi remained silent for a few moments before slowly speaking: "The Five Continents Battlefield is fraught with danger. The life and death of Body Refinement Martial Artists are hanging by a thread, and even Qi Refining Realm cultivators have only a slight chance of survival."

"Only a true Martial Grandmaster at the Refining Demon Realm can truly hold life and death in their own hands."

As he spoke, he glanced at the half-broken longsword in his hand and said in a low voice, "Only with the help of the Earthly Fiend Divine Weapon can a Qi Refining Realm cultivator control the fiendish energy for a short time and exert the strength of a half-step Martial Grandmaster."

"Therefore, only those at the Qi Refining Realm with divine weapons can succeed; anyone else would only suffer unnecessary losses."

,

"I will set off after I send the Taihe Sword to Taihe Peak to nurture it."

Han Lingxiao raised his eyebrows, his expression slightly anxious: "Senior brother, you still have a chance to improve. How can you go to the Five Continents battlefield at this time?"

He glanced again in the direction the crowd had left outside the hall and said coldly, "The Great Yun Dynasty requires our sect to send at least five Qi Refining Realm cultivators or one Fiend Refining Realm cultivator to guard the battlefield of the Five Provinces."

"Those peak masters and elders are only at the peak of body refinement, but quite a few of them are capable of breaking through. They are just holding back because they are afraid of going to their deaths."

"My plan is to force them to go, which will buy you some time!"

'

Yun Lingzi sighed and said softly, "How can we forcefully suppress it?"

"If we suppress them today, the entire Dongyang Sect will fall apart tomorrow."

"Are we going to kill them all?"

"Kill them all, then recruit more disciples, isn't that the same thing?"

"It's been thousands of years. If it could change, it would have changed long ago. Why would it wait until we do?"

,

"At least it's their own ancestral land now, and apart from going to their deaths on the battlefield of the Five States, they've done their best in everything else."

At this point, Yun Lingzi looked at Han Lingxiao meaningfully: "Even ordinary families have the saying 'raising children to provide for old age.' They provide pills and pass on cultivation techniques, all for the sake of having someone to safeguard their foundation."

,

Han Lingxiao said, "Then let's use the Earthly Fiend Divine Weapon to buy time."

"A single Earthly Fiend Divine Weapon is enough to exchange with the Great Luck Dynasty for twenty years of time away from the Five Provinces battlefield."

Yun Lingzi shook his head: "Of the eleven Earthly Fiend Divine Weapons of my Dongyang Sect, two were completely destroyed, two were stolen, and one has been given to the Dayun Dynasty."

"Of the remaining six items, including this Taihe Sword, three must be kept hidden away on various peaks for nurturing. How can we possibly give away another one?"

"Besides, I might not be able to take that step even in twenty years."

Han Lingxiao said, "And Du Ruo and Lu Cheng too!"

"Both of them are extraordinary in terms of talent and cultivation speed, and Lu Cheng is even more unfathomable to both of us."

Yun Lingzi waved his hand and said, "The Refining Sha Heavenly Barrier is no different for anyone except for the most talented individuals, even the most powerful and the most worthless are no different."

"Throughout history, there have been countless disciples whose talent was no less than Du Ruo's, but they all got stuck at that last step."

"Besides, if we expect the two of them to shoulder this burden, what difference is there between us and those other people?"

Han Lingxiao looked up at the sky, closed his eyes, and slowly exhaled: "Sigh, this is truly—"

"Making trouble out of nothing! I don't accept this arrangement."

,

Lu Cheng stared blankly at the people in front of him.

If by this point you still don't know what they're up to, then you've lived two lives in vain.

Lu Cheng wanted to see what would happen if he didn't do as they said.

A month ago, Lu Cheng might have reluctantly accepted it.

But now, the Dongyang Sect doesn't have much left to offer.

Even if we break away now, it won't have much of an impact.
