Chapter 108 - 108, Sword Token_l
Han Li wanted to see if he could get a bargain and bring back the Mother of No Life as his concubine.
The Mother of No Life’s strength was formidable, her talents certainly excellent. During the previous battle, he noticed her beauty was exceptional, which is why he harbored this thought.
The Mother of No Life was a Great Grandmaster of the Myriad Phenomena Realm, but Han Li thought she looked quite young, and wondered if she possessed the art of maintaining her youth.
It was very likely that the Mother of No Life had a Fourth-Grade talent, or even possibly Third Grade. If he really took her as a concubine, he would make a fortune.
He had a Fifth-Grade talent, and the Mother of No Life had a Fourth-Grade talent; if the two of them combined, the result would likely be a Fourth-Grade talent.
Moreover, both of their cultivations were high, one at the Peak of the Hollow Realm, the other at the early stage of the Myriad Phenomena Realm. The offspring they could produce might have a mutated talent even higher than theirs.
When his first Fifth-Grade talented offspring was born, he gained fifty years of cultivation, the Lower-grade martial skill “Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill,” and his talents improved by one-tenth.
During the fight, this person was like an overbearing tank, with an absurdly high defense and tremendous strength. Every palm strike that landed on her made her cry out in pain.
With the blessing of Omnipotent Martial Arts, a middle-grade Earth-Level was almost comparable to a Supreme Grade Earth-Level, and he could directly master it to perfection, greatly boosting his strength.
However, taking the Mother of No Life as a concubine was very difficult.
Now he would have to snatch food from the mouth of a tiger, and save the Mother of No Life from two Great Grandmasters first.
On the great plains, Lu Tianxiang stood still, seemingly having given up on the idea of running away.
At this moment, she became calm and composed as if she had made peace with life and death, calmly taking out a dress and putting it on over herself, obscuring the alluring spring scenery that had been momentarily exposed.
Even though she was in such straits, Lu Tianxiang’s feet remained off the ground, as if she had a phobia of cleanliness, seemingly worried that even with her shoes on, touching the ground would dirty her jade-like feet.
Swish, swish-
Two sounds of air being torn pierced through, as Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong landed several miles away from Lu Tianxiang, their expressions void of emotion as they looked at her.
For Great Grandmasters like them, a distance of several miles, tens of miles, or even hundreds of miles was all the same, as they could cross it in a blink of an eye.
They didn’t approach too closely, in order to guard against the Mother of No Life choosing to fight to the death. Even a Great Grandmaster going all out in their attacks could cause them quite a bit of suffering, let alone getting caught in a self-destructive blast, which, if not fatal, would leave them severely injured.
“Mother of No Life, you are a Great Grandmaster, and Da Qian also needs strong individuals like you. If you truly pledge allegiance, Prince Wu’an will not mistreat you,” Wan Guiyuan continued to persuade with his offer of clemency.
Yang Tianxiong remained silent, just vigilant and on guard.
Compared to a deceased Great Grandmaster, a living one who is willing to join Da Qian is many times more important. If they could sway the Mother of No Life to their side, it would be a great achievement.
On paper, Da Qian only had twenty-five Great Grandmasters, or rather, now only twenty-four. It could be said that the weight of one Great Grandmaster was very significant.
Generally speaking, if a Great Grandmaster joins the court, Da Qian would bestow upon them the title of a nation’s pillar, granting them immense power and a lofty position. Of course, there were also many obligations. They must fight for Da Qian.
Da Qian also had corresponding methods to prevent these incorporated Great Grandmasters from betraying, ensuring their genuine allegiance.
“Impossible,” Lu Tianxiang rejected without hesitation.
While Da Qian had ways to prevent strong joiners from betraying, her backing forces had them too, and they were even crueller.
All great forces have such means, to bind the strong within their ranks and prevent internal traitors and betrayal.
Generally, only strong individuals of the Hollow Void Stage and above would receive such treatment. If they wanted to achieve a higher status and more cultivation resources within the force, they had to prove their loyalty; otherwise, the sect would not continue to nurture them.
Only those of the Hollow Void Stage and above were considered the upper echelons of a force, able to access more sect secrets, hold detailed intelligence, and the core mysteries. Without total loyalty, they could not even come into contact with these things.
Minor forces didn’t care much, as they lacked such means. Even the Leizhou Sects of Tianxuan Mountain did not have them.
For a force like Tianxuan Mountain, the usual practice was to rely on thorough selection and continuous filtering, fostering the emergence of generations of
Sect Heirs and high-level individuals.
If Lu Tianxiang were to betray the forces behind her, her Divine Spirit would be severely damaged, her path clouded, and it would be impossible for her cultivation to advance any further.
Then, all the relatives and friends of her backing powers would be implicated, with the lighter punishments being imprisonment for hundreds of years, while the more severe penalties ranged from abolishment of one’s cultivation to direct execution.
Lu Tianxiang would rather die than accept such an outcome.
She wasn’t the sort that would let all her friends and relatives pay a hefty price just so she could cling to life.
Perhaps others could do it, holding their own lives as the most important, willing to abandon anyone, but she couldn’t.
“Sigh-
Wan Guiyuan sighed and, at the same time as Yang Tianxiong, made his move.
The two had been maintaining communication through transmitted messages, agreeing that if Lu Tianxiang refused to agree, they would immediately take action to suppress her, and at the very least, they would have to kill her on the spot.
Two fierce and powerful martial intent forces firmly pressed down on Lu Tianxiang, and even though her martial intent was at a higher level, her cultivation was much lower and she was injured, fundamentally unable to withstand the crush of the two Great Grandmasters’ martial intent.
Wan Guiyuan’s fists and Yang Tianxiong’s palms struck Lu Tianxiang simultaneously. Lu Tianxiang struggled to defend herself. Her body uncontrollably flew backwards, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, her injuries worsening.
The two did not stop their assault, constantly attacking, causing Lu Tianxiang’s injuries to grow more severe and her breathing to rapidly weaken, leaving her almost incapable of moving.
The two exchanged glances before vanishing from their spots, reappearing in the next instant in front of and behind Lu Tianxiang, swinging fists and palms again, aiming to render Lu Tianxiang powerless to resist.
A crafty glint flashed in Lu Tianxiang’s eyes as her figure disappeared from the spot, leaving behind only a sword talisman that burst forth with dazzling light.
“Not good!”
Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong’s pupils contracted sharply, they desperately retreated while simultaneously launching attacks, attempting to weaken the power of the sword talisman.
The sword talisman emitted light, and the dazzling radiance of the sword light blossomed, forming thousands of sword wheels, each wheel releasing terrifying Sword Intent, a magnificent sword light that sliced through heaven and earth, dimming the sun and the moon, peerless sword wheels tearing through space, intending to exterminate all foes.
The first strikes from Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong were instantly ground to nothing by the thousands of sword wheels, and their subsequent attacks were also easily destroyed, but the sword wheels diminished by forty to fifty percent.
The remaining sword wheels split into two waves, attacking both Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong, these two Great Grandmasters, shattering their defensive Magical Treasures, penetrating their protective Gang Yuan, and relentlessly striking them.
When all the sword wheels dissipated, the figures of Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong emerged, now thousands of miles apart. They rapidly retreated with their injured bodies, only to find that Lu Tianxiang had long since vanished.
“Damn it!”
“We were careless!”
Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong cursed in anger, their expressions as ugly as they could be.
Their mission had failed again, and they had sustained heavy injuries, their strength not even reaching sixty percent of their peak.
If not for the fact that a lot of the sword wheel’s power had been blocked, they would be close to death or seriously injured, their condition far worse than it currently was.
The two shared a glance and sighed simultaneously. Lu Tianxiang had long since disappeared without a trace, to continue pursuing or not?
But if they did not pursue and returned, how would they explain themselves to Prince Wu’an?
They vanished from that place, having no choice but to continue the relentless pursuit. Fortunately, they had secretly marked the Mother of No Life beforehand and could still barely sense her.
Meanwhile, Lu Tianxiang activated the last of her Gang Yuan and continuously traveled for seventy to eighty thousand miles before she finally stopped, intending to find a place to heal her wounds.
She didn’t know if Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong had caught up, but she had to heal now, or there would be big trouble.
