Meanwhile, as Guo Jiang was immersed in his reverie and unaware of what was happening in their slum square, a single cold snorting sound suddenly tore through the silence, startling everyone around.

"Hm, not unexpected at all. Two renowned Magus from the Magic Veil Domain are also showing great interest in the Sword of the Moon!"

Suddenly, the first two settlers in the settlement, a woman and a quiet man referred to as Magus, felt a change in their expressions, a sign of surprise.

They realized that the two figures who had just appeared were not to be taken lightly. The presence of these two individuals came so suddenly without any sound, even though both of them were Magus who were always vigilant and always monitored the surroundings just in case.

The two figures appeared to be wrapped in a thin mist, creating a mysterious and secretive impression. Their clothes were wrapped in dark fabrics that were not shiny and did not reflect light, allowing them to disguise themselves and blend

    The woman came flying with her wand that had a glittering emerald stone at the head, and she raised it into the air to form a giant mirror, sparkling white."Illusion Mirror Fortress Defense!"Duar!The strange energy contained in the tips of those black-robed swords exploded as they met the defensive mirror Xue Yun created."Good! It turns out you two have a bit of skill," the black-robed figure called Bai She calmly said to his partner, Hai She. "Let's finish off these Magi. We've played around enough. The Sect Leader is waiting for us with the Moon Sword map."You might be wondering why the names Bai She and Hai She sound familiar? Actually, these two black-robed figures hail from a different world on the Silver Screen Continent. They hail from the Magical Beast Realm, a realm filled with rare half-immortals. This is why their names sound familiar.Since the beginning of the creation of this Magical Beast Realm by the Gods, there was a clear rule that all magical creatures of this

    Bai She broke the silence and began to speak, "It seems that our strength is balanced. We are all high-level Earth Practitioners. There is no point in fighting between us, it will only result in pointless deaths. I have an interesting idea, whether Xue Yun agrees or not."Xue Yun frowned but was still willing to listen, despite feeling bad."Please speak up," she said.Bai She's expression turned more relaxed, and he said, "Tell you what, since the purpose of all of us coming is to obtain the location map of the Moon Sword. Although we don't know exactly what the map looks like yet, why don't we hold a race? A race to find any object that is believed to be a clue to the whereabouts of the Moon Sword."Xue Yun smiled sarcastically, "What race are you referring to, snake-born creature?"Bai She chuckled at Xue Yun's vigilance and replied slyly, "Of course it's nothing, Lady Peng. Given that you only have one body, why don't we race to grab any objects that are believed to be clues to th

    The Abyss - the dumping ground of the Bingdao Sect.Guo Jiang was surprised by the question that came so suddenly. A sense of anxiety immediately washed over him. He couldn't forget the experience with the previous four people. They might have seemed classy, but the cruelty of their actions had carved deep memories.He recalled his mother's words echoing in his mind, "They are all evil. People who are proficient in martial arts often have dark hearts. In the future, you should be careful if you meet highly skilled martial arts practitioners like them."Despite his young age, Guo Jiang had a sharp mind. His mind worked quickly, and he realized that the white-clothed man standing in front of him had skills that far surpassed those of his previous attackers.He also noted how the attackers immediately left the place when they heard this man's whistling.In an instant, Guo Jiang formulated a plan. He would play a role and create a story to protect himself. He knew that appearances could b

    Without hesitation, Guo Jiang replied, "I just heard they were betting to see who could pick up the clue or map. However, I myself don't know what they really mean by that." Guo Jiang explained.The man in white nodded and then pondered for a moment. A moment later, he asked again."Young man... If I ask you to be my disciple, are you willing?" the man in white said once again.Guo Jiang was very surprised. A day before, he would have rejected an offer like this without a second thought. But now, everything changed.In one night, all of Guo Jiang's views on martial arts training and his belief that violence and evil originated with martial arts experts were shattered. He realized that strength is what rules in this world. Experience was the best teacher in his life.Guo Jiang recognized reality. From birth to the present, he had been confined to The Abyss' exile, his knowledge was extremely limited, but now his eyes were open.People of great power had oppressed his family and even to

    In that instant, Guo Jiang rushed down the deep ravine behind his house. Although it was a dark night, it didn't make it difficult for him to go down the ravine. The depth of the location that would be his hiding place reached thirty-five feet deep, where there was a secret cave.The cave wasn't big, just enough for Guo Jiang to take cover, invisible from above when anyone tried to peer into the abyss.In the corner, there was a pair of sizable centipedes, huddled silently, sharing in the tension the boy was experiencing.On ordinary days, Guo Jiang would often chat with the two centipedes while playing around in the cave, and it felt like they had grown close. As a result of their closeness, the centipedes didn't put up a fight when Guo Jiang entered the cave, their nest.Cold sweat was dripping down his forehead when the boy hurriedly jumped into the cave. Lucky for him, not more than two blinks of an eye later, the abyss was suddenly illuminated with torchlight. And Guo Jiang heard

    Guo Jiang stuffed a piece of bread into his stomach, then drank cold water from the jug in the wooden backpack where he kept it.Every now and then he would pass the dried bread crumbs to a pair of centipedes and they would quickly catch them."We share food. I know this is a very simple dish. But let's eat this breakfast together," with childlike glee, he began to play with the pair of centipedes. There was no amusement, let alone fear of being exposed to the creature's deadly venom.It didn't take long for voices to be heard. The voices of other figures who had just arrived at the ruined slum housing site.Guo Jiang was restless again. Luckily he was not rash, speculated that the danger had left, then climbed the cliff to see the state of his house. Again, he didn't move."The people of the Black Crow Sect have preceded us Night Cucumber Sect. There's nothing left," a voice from above was heard. Then a commotion ensued. Guo Jiang estimated that there were more than twenty people tal

    It was noon, and the sun was high overhead, reflecting its glistening rays to create the illusion of pearly grains as its light fell on the snowy expanse of Mount Khar Amitan.Although it was not yet winter, the eternal snow on the mountain's summit remained because Khar Amintan Peak is always cold. It is the coldest area in the northern part of the continent, making anyone shiver from the cold.The child's feet were small, shuffling, sometimes sinking into the mounds of snow, but he tried to persevere, stabilize, and leave the snowy mountain peak. He moved slowly toward the west, hoping to be quickly hidden from the prying eyes of the unfathomable figure from the depths of the earth on Khar Amintan Peak.Even though people didn't have compasses back then, everyone at this time always relied on the sun or the North Star for direction.'The sun is leaning to the west, which means I need to go in the opposite direction to the north, where Bingdao is. Then I'll just go south or west,' th

    Guo Jiang was silent. He didn't usually pay attention to heroic tales or stories like the one the traveling storyteller was humming. He then glanced at the rest of the stall's patrons, all transfixed by the storyteller's humming.'The Sun Sword is hidden in the Ice Chakra's ability. Whoever has it, half the world is at hand. The Moon Sword hides the skill of the Fire Chakra. By possessing the Moon Sword artifact, half the world will kneel in worship.Possessing the Sword of the Sun and the Sword of the Moon, the power of Fire and Ice will make the world bow down and kneel before you. With the Sword of the Sun, all mortal worlds will bow at your feet. With the Sword of the Moon, even the world of the dead will move, hailing you. But the greatest among all is the Star Sword, the ruler of Heaven, Underworld, and Earth.'The room instantly overflowed with excitement. Visitors who had initially only come for food now asked questions."Old storyteller, can you sing that song again?" asked o

    Jiayi looked uneasy. She didn't want the two White Stream Sect Leader geniuses to kill each other."Cool brother Jiang, can't you break up those two youngsters?Your cultivation is much higher than Jiayi's.It would be much easier if one is from the same cultivation realm, compared to my low cultivation self, to separate those two youngsters who seem to be going crazy," Jiayi said with an expectant look at Guo Jiang.Guo Jiang thought for a moment. He considered the risk if he showed his snow lotus technique. He looked for an excuse to refuse."Then what answer should I give to that Yin Fu He? On the other hand, we both also watched him practicing with their Peach Moon Sect's secret techniques," Guo Jiang asked back.Jiayi was a resourceful teenager. With just a quick thought, she had come up with the right answer, just in case Yin Fu He turned his anger on the two of them."About that, brother Guo Jiang doesn't need to worry. I have thought of the right answer to silence Yin Fu He. F

  • Fifteen Steps, Endless Blades.

    The sword in Yin Fu He's hand was getting closer to Zhao Hua's back when it glowed in rainbow colors. Beautiful but dangerous.Jiayi was wide-eyed at the sight. Her heart was upset that there wasn't the slightest defense from Zhao Hua, who still seemed indifferent."You stupid dandy, he thinks the Rainbow Sword Technique is only a low-grade technique," Jiayi tensed up in fascination at the beauty of the Rainbow Sword.Suddenly, unexpectedly, Zhao Hua turned around quickly. His face broke into a faint smile, a look of disdain on his face. He wasn't stupid enough to just let the sword in Yin Fu He's hand split him in half.With a cold snort, his hand quickly brought out the sword that had been ready to come out of its sheath, too fast for the naked eye to follow.In a swift motion, still in a hovering state, Zhao Hua returned the sword strokes, now his demeanor changed from clumsy to serious and authoritative looking. His voice chanting the sword incantation was loud enough to raise the

    Jiayi was just about to jump out from behind the snow mountain and apologize to Yin Fu He, but her movement was stopped. Guo Jiang gripped the girl's adoration tightly, so tightly that she wanted to scream in pain.Her eyes bulged like they were going to pop out of their sockets, but her heart calmed down at the sight of Brother Guo Jiang's shady eyes."Hold back, sister Jiayi.We should not act rashly. The matter of peeping at people practicing their stash techniques is embarrassing.We should wait a little longer and see what happens. My guess is that Yin Fu He is too prejudiced. How could he possibly detect the two of us who are quietly safe due to the status of this protective Talisman?" said Guo Jiang, stepping cautiously with distrust of that Yin Fu He.There was silence, but the sea breeze carrying vapor and ice grains sounded rough.Five winks passed, and Yin Fu He seemed to lose his patience. Sword sounds rang out as the youngster of the Crescent Moon Sect drew a sword. His f

  • Arena of Shattered Ice.

    Because he held a VIP invitation that was a special invitation for the Thirteen Immortal World Rulers Sect Master, Huang Guowei was given a place to stay, a large pavilion that could accommodate more than 20 people.The Ice Island's master had apparently made professional preparations by setting up so many makeshift buildings as lodgings for so many sects, that is, outside of World Lord Martial arts world's thirteen largest sects.They passed through a large arena where the floor looked like a mirror; it was the original floor of ice crystals that were decades old—never melted a speck.There were tons of circular seating seats around the stage of the ice-crystal-floored arena.Huang Guowei glanced indifferently then whispered to Guo Jiang and Jiayi."It looks like the host intentionally made a combat arena, it's the most dangerous arena I've ever seen.The floor of this ice crystal is very slippery, so the best balance and Qinggong techniques will be helpful in case you join the fight

    Even from afar, the scent of jasmine mixed with lavender wafted up to their ocean-going ship.Jiayi laughed lightly at the dandy figure."That 15-year-old youngster is named Zhao Hua. He's the only son of the Patriarch of the Zhao Clan in the Ancient City of the Northwest Slope of this continent.At this young age, Zhao Hua had broken through to become a level 3 Earth Rank Practitioner. He mastered the 15 Steps of Death Sword Technique, a deadly sword technique of the Zhao Clan.Rumor had it that if someone in the Clan inherited the 15 Death Sword Movement Technique, then that person would become the next Patriarch of the Zhao Clan."Guo Jiang chuckled after hearing all of Jiayi's explanation. Indeed, in his recent journey, he felt that with his ability to break through to become a level 3 Earth Practitioner, it was extremely extraordinary. He was counted as a genius and a rare existence in the Martial arts world.But that sense of pride instantly melted away, drowning in the cold sea

  • Peach Moon and Lightning.

    In the Northern Region of the Silver Screen Continent, the snow season seemed to never end throughout the year. Even if spring or summer came around, it wasn't too long before the flower season and summer would move quickly, welcoming the arrival of fall as the start of the long snow season.Today was a beautiful day, when the sky was clear and bright, free of gray clouds. Nonetheless, here in the North Sea, the surface of the sea was pure white with thin ice glistening in the sun, making the three medium-sized ships sailing across the sea look like huge whales swimming on a silver mirror.Guo Jiang and Jiayi stood on the bridge of their Ocean Crossing ship, looking at the ice crystals that lay glittering on the seawater, looking like a glass tapestry.On the starboard side of their ships, within a safe distance was each ship on the starboard side with a large pennant; it depicted half a peach blossom, side by side with an embroidered silver crescent moon, with two other swords crosse

  • Mercy and Hidden Roots

    Guo Jiang said, "Give this pill to your leader. I suggest that he rest for no less than one month on a bed and not force himself to do any strenuous activities.If he violates the terms of treatment I have described, don't blame me if your leader young master will lose all his cultivation. If he doesn't take a complete rest within 1 month, his dantian will be damaged by the cold of the Snow Lotus, and then he will become a cripple."Ren's words were casual and unremarkable. But in the ears of the group of pirates who were also busy tending to their severely injured young master, the real threat of space sounded like a thunderclap in broad daylight.The dozens of people then knelt down to worship Guo Jiang while expressing their gratitude and promised not to violate the treatment rules required by the young man and would also pay close attention to who was worth reading and which groups they could not touch.There was no need to wait too long after Ren Huang pardoned the pirate leader'

  • One Strike, Endless Frost.

    Guo Jiang swung the Silent Shadow Sword; he performed a poking motion that contained a deadly cold force, the magnitude of which was as heavy as 1900 jin. It was even one fierce pure air power that was higher than the pirate man's combat energy.Wush!Qian Chang swung back, intent on blocking Guo Jiang's sword strike. In his view, his sect's Water Snake Sword Art had a defense ability that was as solid as a summer fortress. But suddenly Qian Chang's chest was tight in a freeze.All eyes now looked with pity at the young pirate leader.The young man who claimed to be Roque Kultivator swore with a strange technical chant that made the air instantly condense into crystals and time seemed to slow down."Ice Island Cold Energy!" a horrified hiss sounded from the mouths of the pirate members.The youngster was now so fast that his movements were barely caught by the eye. Everyone was surprised to see Guo Jiang flying across the long distance between ships, his wings flapping beautifully.It

  • Arrogance Shattered in Ice.

    Qian Chang was a genius of the Water Snake Sect, which was one of the ten sects of the pirate group that ruled the waters of the North Sea. Out of the ten pirate sects in the North Sea, the Water Snake Sect was the most dominant, as it had many members who were mostly early to mid-level Earth ranked lake river cultivators.Qian Chang was the nephew of Pirate Sect Master Qian Lau. Pirate Qian Lau loved his nephew Qian Chang very much, considering that he had been nurtured by Qian Lau since childhood, so the old Pirate had considered Qian Chang as his own biological son.Growing up in a harsh environment full of lake river criminals, and being hailed from an early age as the young master to replace the old pirate Qian Lau, made Qian Chang grow up to be a proud young man who never knew the meaning of hardship.Indeed, since he was a child, the boy had always been pampered and had never known the meaning of defeat in his life; that was because all members of the Water Snake Sect respected
