2024-10-29 19:42:56Several miles from the Palace ruins, the young man from the Crescent Moon Sect was seen strolling leisurely through the forest.
As he walked a blazing aura that wasn't there before could be sensed coming from his body. His feet left burnt marks on the grassy terrain every time he stepped on the ground.
Hands clasped behind his back, he moved ahead in the direction of the Palace ruins with steady and unhurried footsteps. Despite the danger of encountering high-rank demonic beasts, his face still had a tranquil expression, as if he was just taking a stroll through his own backyard.
Out of nowhere, a rough and grating to the ears voice could be heard.
"All you have to do is make physical contact with any one of them and I'll take care of the rest."
After the voice spoke, a response was followed by a different voice that sounded younger and smoother.
"If you're really who you say you are, why can't you just kill them right here and now and be done with it?"
The person with the younger voice sounded annoyed and impatient as he said that.
The rough and grating voice responded with, "Do you think killing someone like them is that simple? They undoubtedly have life-saving treasures given to them by their father and were most likely branded by their Saint realm expert's Divine Sense. Despite the fact that I'm in the Sage realm, a sliver of a Saint realm expert's Divine Sense is more than enough to kill me."
The younger voice grew silent for a moment before saying, "Then how should I go about making physical contact with one of them then?"
The rough voice responded, "You're on your own with that, the suppression technique I'm using to hide my aura from the Pocket Realm can only be used with my full concentration. If I took any action even if it's a small amount, the technique will become undone and cause the collapse of the Pocket Realm. And that's disadvantageous for both of us since the collapse of the Pocket Realm is enough to destroy my soul form, let alone you."
As the young man from the Crescent Moon Sect reached the large Palace ruins, his lone figure had stepped across the treeline to come face to face with the broken walls of the Palace entrance.
As he walked his voice that turned out to be the younger voice sounded out, "Fine, I'll come up with something."
Strangely the rough and grating voice was not coming from the empty surroundings, it was actually coming from the youth as well.
As the youth's mouth moved, he lets out a chuckle and spoke in that rough and grating voice from before, "Yes, that's right, something like this should be easy for you, you're the secret disciple of the Crescent Moon Sect's patriarch after all, now it's time for you to show me why he thinks so highly of you, to go as far as to agree with my plans to place my soul within your body."
The scene of two different voices coming from the young man's mouth was so bizarre to witness, that if someone was here to see it, they would think this young man had gone crazy. One of the voices was the young man's own, and the other sounded like an old man on the verge of dying
The young man snorted and said, "My master didn't have a choice, I will never forgive that bastard Longwei for causing my former teacher's death. Suddenly losing his cultivation and something he had worked his entire life on had driven him mad to the point where he saw no reason to live and committed suicide. That son and father can go to hell! I want to see them and everyone in their clan get brutally murdered!!"
As the youth spoke his eyes became bloodshot while he tighten his fist behind his back so hard a trickle of blood started coming from his palms.
The old and grating voice laughed, which again looked weird coming from the young man, and said, "Don't worry, if everything goes according to my plan, then those two brothers won't make it out of this Pocket Realm alive, and as for the Wu Clan's destruction, they might have increased their experts at their borders, but my Fire Phoenix Clan on the Beast Continent is more than prepared to carry out a full-scale invasion of the Wu Continent. At that time, your Crescent Moon Sect, and their allied sects and clans would need to help our Fire Phoenix Clan in their destruction. And as per our agreement, the Crescent Moon Sect will become the new rulers of the continent."
If someone had heard those casually spoken words, their heart would skip a beat. The Crescent Moon Sect was actually working with the Demonic Beast Continent to overthrow the Wu Clan. Some major upheaval was about to occur on the Wu Continent.
The rough voice spoke up again, "However, what you did when you said those words about one of the young masters of the Wu Clan, slightly ruined our plans. The Wu Clan now knows that your patriarch is attempting a breakthrough and needs the Heavenly Pallet, if anything happens to the patriarch's sons now, the Crescent Moon Sect would come under suspicion."
The young man then said, "It doesn't really matter, all it will be is suspicion. As long we're able to kill them without leaving a trace then the Wu Clan won't be able to hold us accountable. Even if they try to attack us without proof of our involvement, we can use that as an excuse to gather more sects and clans on our side in the name of stopping the Wu Clan from abusing their power. Though they're the Wu Clan and are the third most powerful force on planet Daiyu, they still won't dare antagonize all the sects and clans into a rebellion. They might be able to win, but it would cost them a significant amount of their resources and weaken them in the process. If that's the case then they'll just become a fish on the chopping block for major powers like yours, and the Tang Dynasty that's eyeing their Pocket Realms."
The soul within the young man's body said, "That's impressive of you to be able to grasp the inner workings of the major powers so well, I kind of see why your sect's patriarch took you in as a disciple despite your slightly above average cultivation talent."
A cold smirk could be seen at the corner of the young man's lips as he stepped through the front courtyards, and made his way towards the back of Palace ruins.

The two rank 3 demonic beasts under the control of Longmin and Longwei's bodyguards were gazing at the treeline that led deeper into the forest, staying highly alert. However, faint footsteps suddenly sounded out to their left, which became louder and louder as they approached the arching doorway. The Red Salamander and the Sparrow's peak tier rank 3 cultivation burst forth with tremendous power. Their eyes radiated brutality as they stared at the young man from the Crescent Moon Sect, who had bent the corner and was heading in their direction. The young man's body had returned to normal, and the fiery aura that had surrounded him before was gone. He still had that tranquil expression on his face as he walked with his hands held behind his back. Although he seemed unperturbed by the rank 3 demonic beasts' aura and intense stares, he had still been caught off guard by them as he turned the corner. His steps had faltered a little, but he had managed to recover
Rise of the Wu Clan Chapter 30- That Familiar Smile Reappears
Longmin who was silently listening by the side couldn't help but frown, and say, "As a peak late-stage Core Formation cultivator you actually want to challenge someone in the Foundation realm, are you that shameless?" Longwei's eyebrows rose in slight surprise, this Weisheng's cultivation was actually so strong. It was only three years ago he was in the 6th stage of the Qi Gathering Realm, but within three years his cultivation actually jump by two major realms. His cultivation speed could actually match the top geniuses on planet Daiyu. When this thought cross Longwei's mind he began sneering in his heart, 'What genius, his cultivation talent was only so-so back then, it's obvious someone must have forcefully raised his cultivation.' While Longwei was thinking that to himself, on the outside Weisheng became dumbfounded upon hearing Longmin's words. The cultivation aura he was currently releasing was that of an early-stage Core Formation culti
Rise of the Wu Clan Chapter 31- Unexpected Strength
As Longwei said that, he took a step forward and vanished from view. Weisheng then suddenly heard the air behind him being sliced apart, quickly turning around he saw the tip of Longwei's Sword Qi piercing towards his throat at an unimaginable speed. Without a hint of hesitation, Weisheng took a step back, and at the same time, a fierce and raging fire appeared around his body before quickly coalescing into a shield in front of him. Longwei's sword strike was blocked with a loud bang. Everything took time to explain but the series of events actually took place in only a fraction of a split second. Weisheng was forced to take a step again but this time it wasn't out of his own will. Longwei's single sword strike was actually strong enough to force him, a Core Formation expert back. After his initial shock Weisheng's once calm expression become absolutely solemn. He didn't expect Longwei's strength to be so great, his single sword strike was equ
Rise of the Wu Clan Chapter 32- Longmin's Thoughts... Third Move
Longwei felt the pressure the ripples from the sun and moon were releasing and he couldn't help but frown.Weisheng was still suppressing his cultivation at the early stage, but the power he was releasing was extremely strong. If Longwei were to estimate its level of power it would be at the peak of the mid Core Formation realm, almost entering the late stage.Longwei looked at Weisheng with narrowed eyes and then glanced towards the crimson sun and the crescent blue moon behind him.Longwei recognized them as the manifestation of the Crescent Moon Sect's Sun and Moon Scripture, a Saint-level cultivation method. Only when someone reached a high comprehension of the cultivation method they cultivate, do they gain the ability to manifest its projection.But even if they were only projections, they could still affect the laws of the physical world.The higher the level of a disciple's cultivation method was, the stronger the power boost to their culti
Rise of the Wu Clan Chapter 33- Fourth And Fifth Move… Unbeknownst
Weisheng was looking up at Longwei as his crescent blade pulsate with powerful laws of water. Each time it pulsated the water below his feet would ripple in response.The effects of the explosion calmed down and everything on the battlefield became silent.Then, from the sky, Longwei's aura shifted from sharp and fierce to forceful and overbearing.Standing on his hovering Sword Qi, Longwei placed his palms together and that overbearing aura started to increase in intensity.Weisheng's expression became serious as he sensed the aura surrounding Longwei getting stronger and stronger.'What spell is this?!'Weisheng has heard of the many Legends surrounding the Wu Clan's Legacy Techniques and their Daoist spells.They were extremely powerful and even the Xingyun Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty would like to get their hands on them. He already knew that Longwei was a sword cultivator, but the spell he was using he had never heard of it befo
Rise of the Wu Clan Chapter 34- Slight Regret
A loud splash echoed out as Weisheng's conjured water palm fell back into the pond.The mutilated body of Weisheng was seen floating towards the edge of the pond. Although he wasn't dead, he was severely injured with all of his internal organs on the verge of shutting down.Longwei's sword strike was from the legendary Sword Intent, but even though it was powerful enough to leave Weisheng on the verge of death, how Longwei utilized his sword intent was actually a crude way of using it.It was evident that Longwei still had not grasped the profundities of Sword Intent to use it to its full potential.Though that still had not stopped Weisheng from nearly dying from his single sword strike. If Weisheng hadn't reduced the blow with his crescent blade and he wasn't wearing his fire armor, he would have most likely died.If he had used his full cultivation then he could have avoided receiving such a deadly injury, but the Fire Phoenix Clan member hiding
Rise of the Wu Clan Chapter 35- The Fire Phoenix Clan Member's Hidden Motives
A loud swoosh echoed out as the Sparrow demonic beast took off into the air. Longmin and Longwei were seated in the same position as before along with their bodyguards. However, there was a new addition to the group, Weisheng was seen sitting slightly ahead between the two bodyguards. Longwei’s injuries were pretty much already healed, but Weisheng was still in the process of healing his own. So far, he managed to remove all the Sword Intent from his body, and now he only had to focus on healing his damaged organs. Though, that was proving to be slightly difficult, as he would sense Longmin turning around and glancing at him ever so often. Every time he did, the Fire Phoenix Clan member would start swearing profanities that only he could hear. For the umpteen time, Longmin turn and glanced at the meditating Weisheng, his eyes flashing unnoticeably for a second before he turned away. “This irritating brat! In the past few hours, he must
Rise of the Wu Clan Chapter 36- Deplorable Xiang Shi
"Li Shen you fucker, do you think you can escape?" Xiang Shi said in a furious tone. One could see that one of his sleeves was empty as he ran after Li Shen through the forest like a mad bull. Behind him were four youths dressed in the same yellow robes as Li Shen and Xiang Shi, indicating that they were from the same sect. As they pursue Li Shen, evil grins could be seen plastered on their faces. Upon hearing Xiang Shi's words, the disheveled-looking Li Shen become enraged and yelled back. "Xiang Shi you piece of dog crap, if it wasn't for those other bastards getting in the way, instead of your arm I could've chopped off your fucking head!!" Xiang Shi's face turned red with rage before he slapped his storage bag and took out a flying sword. Forming a seal with his only hand, the flying sword immediately shot towards Li Shen with lightning-like speed. In only a breath's worth of time, it crossed dozens of meters to appear behi

Isn’t he supposed to have a courtyard for himself somewhere else?”The servant still had to listen carefully to understand Long Wei’s slurred words, but he managed to and his face was covered in hesitation, before he slowly said, “Um.. honored guest, it was the second prince’s choice to have this arrangement.”With the frown still on his face, Long Wei asked again, “Why?”Hearing his question, the servant became even more hesitant and a little nervous as well. As a servant, he didn’t want to speak about the matters involving the second prince, but he didn’t want to offend this guest by not answering either.Just as the servant was wonderi

Were you hiding it all this time?”Li Fang smiled and began walking around the table to sit at the empty side. After sitting Li Fang poured himself a cup of tea while saying, “You guys weren’t the only ones that were improving over the past few years. And as for my concealment ability, well, Sying Mu and Yuyan is not the only one who had tapped into their Legendary Physique.”Soon after Li Fang finished saying that, Long Wei scowled at him and said, “How long were you listening to us?
