As Xiang Zhe and Yuanying journeyed further along their path, a shadow of doubt began to creep into their minds, sowing seeds of uncertainty and conflict. They had embarked on their quest in search of power, believing it to be the key to overcoming their personal struggles and achieving greatness. However, as they delved deeper into their journey, they couldn't help but question the true nature of the power they sought and whether it was worth the sacrifices they were making.Sitting by the campfire one evening, the crackling flames casting flickering shadows on their faces, Xiang Zhe voiced his inner turmoil. "Yuanying, do you ever wonder if the power we seek is truly worth pursuing? Are we chasing after something that will ultimately bring us happiness and fulfillment, or are we merely chasing an illusion?"Yuanying furrowed her brow, her eyes reflecting the flickering firelight as she considered his words. "I've thought about it too, Xiang Zhe. At first, I believed that power was t
Bugh...Bugh...Bugh..."Get up! You useless young man!""Mercy, uncle teacher! Give me one chance to defend this sect; I've gone through a lot to establish this sect, teacher!"Bugh...Braggg..."Destroy! Destroy this sect! Don't let them live in peace; if possible, expel that young man from Huanyian City!" The shouts of the entire local community drove them away."Destroy that martial arts warehouse! Destroy the Zheming sect!" The teacher's uncle shouted so loudly."Don't...!"Xiang Zhe could only resign himself to seeing the martial arts warehouse that he had worked so hard to build now being destroyed by the local people. They wanted to replace the Zheming Sect with the Beiyuan Sect as the leader of Huanyian City.Xiang Zhe was unable to stop the reckless actions of the people and troops from the Beiyuan sect; they not only dispersed the Zheming sect members, but the entire martial arts warehouse building was now reduced to rubble. It was heartbreaking to see hard work destroyed i
Xiang Zhe managed to escape the attack of a group of warriors from the Hinyang sect, which is the second enemy after the Beiyuan sect. They were about to kill Xiang Zhe, but unfortunately, it was their troops who were killed.After walking quite a distance from the city, crossing the river, and passing through some remote forests, Now Xiang Zhe came to a valley, where this place looks terrible and is rarely reached by humans. He stopped by a small lake to wash his face.Shitt...A crossbow hit the ground to his right. Not long after, another five arrows stuck around him. Suddenly, Xiang Zhe turned his body around."Who are you, guys?""I should ask, who authorized you to take the water?""How dare you come to the forbidden weak? Don't you think that this place is fully guarded?" I asked a young man wearing an all-white robe.Xiang Zhe instantly frowned. "Forbidden valley? I don't know what a forbidden valley is; here, I just want to take a short break," he said honestly."So many reas
For ten years after becoming a teacher, the five sects he founded have always failed. Five cities have expelled him for no apparent reason. Xiang Zhe now believes that the curse of eternal loneliness is real. Now that he is once again alienated by society, he makes a mistake so fatal that wiping out the people of Huanyian City is a nightmare for him.Just last night, he received a mysterious energy attack on his sword. Where this energy is able to make the sword more powerful, it is so dangerous that if used, it will definitely take more lives, so he also learned to control it last night. He was almost finished with his own sword; fortunately, the power of the book of his invention was able to move in balance with the foreign power on his sword so that the two energy powers were able to walk side by side, merging with the natural energy in his body.The desire to uncover the secret behind his exile did not always go smoothly. He was confronted by a group of warriors from the Yiangyang
Shitt."Aarrgghtt...!""What do you want?""Stop it! I'm just messing with you."Bugh."Aarrgghtt!!!""Don't you dare bother me, because I don't like jokes!" Xiang Zhe said it coldly.The young man chuckled softly as he got up from his seat. He moved closer to Xiang Zhe."Tsk! Don't take life so seriously. Remember, this is just a world full of games. Just live your life casually and jokingly so you don't grow old too quickly." His chirp unconsciously made Xiang Zhe glare sharply at the young man."Dare you insult me?"The young man shook his head in fear.While Xiang Zhe chose to leave the young man, it was only a few steps before the young man followed him from behind, interrupting Xiang Zhe's journey. It annoyed him and stopped his steps."Tsk! Why do you keep following me? There's no other way to get to your destination."The young man shook his head. "I have no destination; I want to come with you!""Tsk! No! I don't want to! You'll only trouble me later. Get out of my way quickl
The smell of herbs being boiled in an earthen container wafted through the cave through the stone walls. Beside the large container, a young man was busy sorting out the herbs while inserting one by one the leaves as listed in the recipe book in front of him. "Soon the potion will be finished; prepare to enjoy this delicious potion!" She screeched as she stirred the potion in the large container. "Call the damn insects here! I want them to deliver this potion immediately to the big cities!" He ordered the young man who was his assistant. It wasn't long before a swarm of insects arrived with their army. The insects drank the potion until they salivated, which was believed to be able to destroy others because of the poison contained in it. The potion was not just any potion; it was a poison concocted with dangerous ingredients. "Hahaha! Just wait until last night. I'm sure they will be wiped out, and there will be no sects in this world. Only witchcraft wins!" He shrieked with satis
"Xiang Zhe? Are you sure this cave is safe?" "I hope it's safe. This is the last cave we encountered; there are no more caves around here. I am very confident that I will find a clue here," Xiang Zhe said very confidently. Yuanying and Xiang Zhe are now inside the third cave after overcoming various obstacles and uncovering a secret. Xiang Zhe confidently enters the cave along with Yaunying. They probe deeper into the area, but it's as quiet as they get.The pungent smell of stone stung their sense of smell, plus there was no lighting at all inside, making it a little difficult for them to find their way."It looks like this cave is uninhabited. Unlike the previous cave, which was full of strange creatures," Xiang Zhe said as he explored the area. While Yuanying chose to scatter to find her own way, she soon came across a room that she found unfamiliar. "Oh my! Xiang Zhe! Come here!" She screamed in a low but firm voice. Xiang Zhe quickly ran over to Yuanying. He squinted his eye
Boomm...Traazz."What are you doing?" "Hahahaha! There you guys are; it looks like you two want to meet the same fate as that old man." The young man named Wueyang returned to Xiang Zhe and Yuanying along with his troops. The insects that Xiang Zhe destroyed came back to life and released a dangerous poison in their saliva. "Wueyang, what is your purpose in wiping out the entire sect that you locked up innocent grandpa Yhuxuan here? Let him go!" The young man smiled wryly as he looked at Xiang Zhe with a cynical gaze that held a grudge within it. "Even if I die, I won't let him go. After this, you two will be the victims of these insects." He screeched in a stern tone. The ember attack almost hit Wueyang, but unfortunately, the young man quickly dodged. The young man grabbed Xiang Zhe's wrist using the rope he was holding. This rope had power in it that could break his wrist right now. "There is no longer any meaning for you to live in the world. Your existence is no longer wan
