Chapter 878: The Revenge
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
At some point, a chilly and harsh atmosphere pervaded heaven and earth.
People in the Immortal Realm, the Human Realm, including the macro world of Earthly Immortals and the micro world of Human Immortals could not avoid this pervasive feeling.
Some practitioners with spiritual sensitive spiritual minds and strong background knew what was going on as soon as they sensed it.
The Dharma Ending Tribulation was on its way!
Practitioners’ greatest tribulation in this era was finally here!!!
In the Immortal Realm
The Sword School on Sword School Mountain!
Sword School Mountain was named after the Sword School and its original name had long been forgotten. The Sword School had ruled the area spanning millions of kilometers in every direction around the mountain, since it was first built 19 million years ago.
This mountain was also suffused with an atmosphere that was as chilly and harsh as autumn air. Different from other places, the most central Taoist rite of the Sword School was covered by a layer of Sword Qi for some time. This Qi shattered the surrounding harsh air, so that the covered area was completely unaffected.
Senior brother, the smell of the Dharma Ending Tribulation is getting stronger. We have Immortal-trapping Sword Qi surrounding the mountain, but this is not a long-term solution!”
The place covered by the Sword Qi was a huge peak, on which sat a palace which looked like a sword. It was not a large palace that could hold more than 10,000 people but at the moment, there were more than 10,000 people crowding round it.
“We can’t do anything about it. We can only wait for Man Yujun to fully comprehend the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi and develop the sword light that could protect our school with two strands of Sword Qi,” said an Earthly Immortal with immense sword intent, standing in the middle of the palace.
The Sword Qi that he exuded was pretty strong and he was the one who was controlling the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi around the palace.
“Unfortunately, I’m not a Tribulation Taker. I can’t fully understand the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi. Otherwise, I will be able to protect the stronger disciples in the palace as well as the other disciples that I can’t save for now!”
“Senior brother, don’t belittle yourself! Without you, we Sword School will probably disappear in the Dharma Ending Tribulation. It is good that so many stronger disciples can survive. Besides, we have a Tribulation Taker, Man Yujun. I believe that as long there is sufficient time, he will be able to master the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi and create a glorious future for our Sword School!”
While they were talking, a great explosion suddenly shook the palace and a strand of red Sword Qi soared into the sky. With the appearance of this Sword Qi, the Sword Qi around the Sword School seemed to be further strengthened, expanding rapidly. As it expanded, the color of the Sword Qi slowly turned red.
“It’s the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi! He’s done it! Man Yujun has mastered it!”
“Yes, he did it. It’s good that he was able to master the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi so quickly. He is indeed worthy of being a Tribulation Taker!” the Earthly Immortal with sword intent, delightedly praised Man Yujun.
A joyous yell could be heard from behind the peak and immediately echoed across the space.
“Haaa, this is the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi! I made it! I made it! Zhou Bao, the day we meet again will be your last day!”
He had been on a roll and had been beaten only once by Zhou Bao. Besides, as a Tribulation Taker, he had already regarded Zhou Bao as his greatest enemy. Now that he had just mastered the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi, he had to let out his anger.
“Okay, I’d like to know how a loser like you, are going to kill me!”
No one expected such a sudden reply.
“Who?”
“How dare you break into the Sword School!!”
This abrupt reply did not frighten the elite of the Sword School, especially their powerful Master who was an Earthly Immortal. The Master immediately emitted a mass of Sword Qi that was full of killing intent. The infinite Sword Qi filled the entire space in an instant.
“Good!!”
The Sword Qi rained down on Zhou Bao. The attack seemed indiscriminate, but it carefully avoided all the practitioners of the Sword School in the palace. The sheer force of control was breath taking. Zhou Bao could not help applauding the Master.
“You deserve to be a senior Earthly Immortal. I can’t compete with you on that alone!” Zhou Bao said. His path of practice was completely opposite from that of those senior Earthly Immortals, so he did not have any particularly deep accumulation and such exquisite power control.
In the past, Zhou Bao feared Earthly Immortals who had such cultivation and strength. Ever since he had been beaten by Yu An, his complacency had gone and he was still a little afraid of these powerful and senior ones.
But now he was no longer afraid, for the Dharma Ending Tribulation had begun. In theory, the Dharma Ending Tribulation would at most influence the Earthly Immortals’ macro world, with little effect on them. But the Master was more than just an ordinary Earthly Immortal, he was also the ruler of the Sword School. The whole Sword School was under his care. In the Sword School, it was only Man Yujun who had just fully understood the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi and only he who could urge the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi to protect these elites.
“You are Zhou Bao. How dare you break into our Sword School!” With a sudden flash, Man Yujun appeared in the hall and a strand of red Sword Qi immediately shot out of his hand and headed towards one direction.
It was the place where Zhou Bao had been hiding.
After launching his Snake-like Breath Holding Skill and entering the Sword School, Zhou Bao had remained hidden in the hall, waiting for his chance. It was the tenth day. He had no idea that Man Yujun had been focused on practicing the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi in the depths of this space, but he did not want to miss this opportunity. Ten days was enough for him to know this space intimately. Therefore, facing Man Yujun’s attack, he did not panic, but shot a Sword Qi back to resist the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi.
“Well, haven’t you understood the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi? That’s not how the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi works. You’d better use your Immortal-eliminating Sword Qi!” Zhou Bao said sarcastically. Having defused the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi, he did not continue to attack, but went straight through the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi that protected the palace and left the core of the Sword School.
“The Immortal-trapping Sword Qi is awesome! I’ll let you off the hook this time. The next time we meet, I won’t let you off so easily!”
“It’s not that easy to escape!”Man Yujun shouted. Zhou Bao meant “I did not expect that you could master the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi. A wise man knows when to retreat. I’ll leave and our enmity will be settled next time!” That was not a very clever trick. On hearing what he said, Man Yujun who was overly ambitious, immediately went after him.
The Master of the Sword School tried to stop him. His face changed as he shot a series of sword techniques to prop up the almost collapsing Sword Qi that had been protecting the palace.
By the time the Sword Qi was steady, Man Yujun had already gone.
“Damn it, Yujun shouldn’t be so impulsive!”
“Don’t worry, senior brother. He has mastered the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi. Even if he cannot defeat Zhou Bao, he can at least defend himself!”
The Master nodded, but he was still very worried about Man Yujun. This was because when Zhou Bao left, he easily broke through the protective Sword Qi of the Sword School, which showed that he was very familiar with the Immortal-trapping Sword Qi.
In that case, he may have been trying to lure the enemy.
The speculation made the Master panic. He wanted to caution his favorite disciple, but it was too late.
“Forget it. Let him be. A little loss can cool his temperament!” In his mind, he agreed with his junior brother’s view that even if Zhou Bao could defeat Man Yujun, he would not be able to catch him. After all, Man Yujun had fully mastered the two pieces of the Immortal-killing Sword Qi. Moreover, his unique talent for swordsmanship had been undoubtedly revealed in the Sword School and he had already practiced the core technique of the school. With such strength, even the Master could hardly kill him.
He didn’t know that Zhou Bao had come here with the intention to kill Man Yujun and seize his good fortune and power.
After gathering all the techniques of the Seven Wonderful Techniques, Zhou Bao had gained some understanding of the mystery between heaven and earth. He knew that both the Four Immortal-killing Swords and the Seven Wonderful Techniques could make people immune to the Dharma Ending Tribulation. In fact, the Five-colored Divine Light and the Crimson Thunder could achieve the same effect. That was why the five of them had been called Tribulation Takers. Not being Celestial Immortals, they would not be affected by the Dharma Ending Tribulation with their peerless Divine Sense and could even take advantage of it to gain strength. These Divine Senses seemed to have been created specifically for this tribulation. And the people who could get them were the Tribulation Takers who were born in response to heaven and earth.
Boom!!!
A mountain, thousands of kilometers away from the Sword School, was flattened by several strands of Sword Qi.
“Man Yujun, your Sword Qi is powerful, but it’s useless if you can’t hit me with it!” Zhou Bao said.
“Don’t think this will provoke me, Zhou Bao!” Man Yujun was facing off with Zhou Bao and his fanaticism had turned into calmness. “You’ve drawn me out. Do you think you can win?”
“Win? Haha, no, I’m here to kill you, but not to compete with you!” As he spoke, he waved his hands and an egg-shaped canopy dropped from the sky.
It was the Space Division Skill!
“I haven’t used this skill in a long time. If it were not for this Dharma Ending Tribulation, I wouldn’t have had the chance to use it in the Immortal Realm. No one will bother us anymore now, Man Yujun. Actually, the reason for me to come to you is not as complicated as you think. I just want to take revenge on you for having attacked me!”
