Chapter Nineteen: Journey to Mount Xiaochu

op-tier prodigies, as long as they don't fall, will surely become powerful beings at the level of a divine monarch one day.Besides, the current heavenly tribulation of the extreme path is easier than..."Does Shen Chumo have a relationship with the natural disasters of Xiaqiu Mountain"

A look of astonishment flashed across Gigi Lai's pretty face.

She wasn't unfamiliar with the name Shen Changqing. In fact, as the most popular figure in the capital city at present, almost no one had not heard of his name.

The problem is.

Then again, getting close to someone who is as popular as a hot commodity isn't easy, even if you want to befriend them.

>

Upon hearing this.

Shen Changqing was taken aback for a moment, then quickly recovered.

“Dongfang Zhen Shou laughed, ‘I just met that celestial disaster once. We’re not exactly friends.’”

"Being able to retreat unharmed from a natural disaster with your innate ability is already extraordinary. You should know that since natural disasters are classified as demons, it's because they are inherently cruel and tyrannical by nature."

Anyone who enters the disaster domain, unless they possess overwhelming strength, absolutely has no chance of surviving.

The fact that you're able to live on is already proof of many things.

The Eastern Emperor shook his head and said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Shen Changqing felt a sense of foreboding in his heart.

A strict administrator who is lauded for their severity might not necessarily be a good thing.

So after the other party finished speaking, he tentatively asked, "I'm not quite sure what Eastern Garrison meant!"

“Natural disasters are unstoppable. Even when the garrison commander himself took action, he couldn't eliminate the disaster. I originally planned to send people there to guard and contain its growth, giving us some time.”

>But little did they know, news of the disaster had already leaked out.

The demon clan, it's obvious they're eyeing that celestial disaster.

To prevent that celestial disaster from falling into the ranks of demons, we can only try to coax it over to our side.

That brings us to the end.

Dongfang Zhao looked at Shen Changqing, his expression solemn.

"You know that disaster, you might be the best candidate for a diplomatic mission. Even if we can't get him to join our side, at the very least, we must ensure he doesn't side with the demons."

Shen Changqing was silent.

As expected.

The meaning of the Eastern Mandate is the same as he had guessed.

Persuading a natural disaster is not an easy task.

But, he wasn't very good at persuasion to begin with. Plus, so-called friendship aside, to be honest, Shen Changqing didn't feel like he had any real friendship with Mo Zijin.

That night.

If you don't run fast enough, you might just become someone else's meal.

“I understand what it means to guard the East, but—”

“This time I will have Wei Lan go with you. Both of you are masters. According to the Zhen Mo Si, that celestial disaster is still in its infancy. Even if it's truly impossible to accomplish anything, the two of you working together should be able to retreat safely.”

"Well, yes!"

Shen Changqing opened his mouth, but could only nod in agreement.

With things having reached this point, there's no way for me to refuse.

Moreover.

Don't let Dongfang Zhao's polite words fool you, if he really refuses to obey orders, things won't be pleasant afterward.

Moreover.

If Wei Lan were to go too, then having two masters enter the disaster area would indeed not be a big issue.

The natural disasters in the early stage of life generally do not have too much strength.

>

roughly.

Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!

That is to say, it's just between a master and an apprentice.

The Eastern Emperor nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Wei Lan: "Wei Lan, this time you will follow along. If anything happens along the way, Shen Chumo will be in charge."

"Yes!"

Dr. Hui received the commission.

After leaving the Hall of Grand Assembly, the two didn't prepare much and went straight to Guangshen Mansion.

Natural disasters are time-sensitive and should not be delayed.

This is a very simple text prompt. Let me know if you have any other requests!

On the other side.

The Heavenly Sword Gate.

"Master, are we really going to just leave Xiaqiu Mountain be"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

In the main hall, elders had grave expressions.

These days, because of the incident with Mount Xiaoqiu, even Tian Dao Sect is feeling a bit anxious and worried.

No way.

There might be a forbidden zone inside Xiaqiu Mountain, which itself is a big problem.

Just a few days ago, all the powerful warriors from the Town Demon Division who were stationed on Xiaoqiu Mountain were killed clean. That was a big deal.

in the rivers and lakes.

The Demon Suppression Division is known for its brutal and ruthless methods.

Now that the members of the Demon Suppression Division have been slaughtered on Xiaochushan, as a sect in this region, Tiandao Gate has also come under considerable pressure.

Wu Que's expression remained unchanged: "The matter of Xiaqiu Mountain is not something our Tiandao Sect can interfere with. Whether there is truly a forbidden area there or not, we should not concern ourselves too much."

If at the beginning, the Tiandao Sect had any thoughts about Xiaqiu Mountain.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

So now.

The Tian Dao Sect regards Xiaqiu Mountain with great apprehension and fear.

Two masters fell.

This is no small matter.

Although the Tiandao Sect boasts considerable strength, it only has one Grandmaster, and even Wu Que is uncertain if he could match Gu Ming and Kong Ye in terms of power.

Strong as two people.

They all died there.

As for any future trouble, if it were to affect the Heavenly Blade Sect, Wu Que wouldn't be able to handle it.

So.

>

At this time, it is most practical not to get involved in Xiaqiu Mountain's trouble.

Sun Guan said, "Master, if Mount Xiaoqiu really has a forbidden zone, our Tiandao sect is too close to the forbidden zone. There will definitely be a lot of trouble. Those sects near the forbidden zone either left early or were swallowed by it."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

If the Demon Suppression Division can't suppress the restricted area, we should make plans accordingly.

"It's time to make preparations!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Wu shook his head, his tone somehow tinged with both melancholy and a hint of unwillingness.

The Heavenly Sword Gate has established its foundation here for so many years, and now it's about to give it up. No one would be willing to do that.

But.

If the Heaven Blade Sect refuses to retreat, in the future the restricted area will grow larger. The entire Heaven Blade Sect will be consumed by the restricted area. At that time, I will become a sinner of the Heaven Blade Sect.

"Have everyone get ready and double-check again, is there really a forbidden zone in Xiaoqiu Mountain If there is, we will immediately relocate. Also, send someone to find a new address as the future base for my Tiandao Sect."

Wu Que spoke in a low voice.

Facing the forbidden zone, Tiandao Gate was unable to resist.

The power of the forbidden zone is not something an ordinary master can withstand.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

If he were to obtain an invincible golden body, and thus advance to the later stages of Master, he would have even more confidence.

But, the invincible golden body ended up in the hands of the Seven Stars Sect. The Heavenly Blade Gate going to the Yuanyang Auction House was just a formality; they didn't get anything at all.

Based on the existing inheritance of Tian Dao Gate.

At most, it allows one to break through to the mid-master level, stepping into the stage of true intent manifestation. As for whether walking the path in the spiritual system to its darkest depths is a possibility, that remains unknown.

None of the masters of the Tiandao sect throughout history have reached the pinnacle of the spiritual system.

Upon hearing this.

The elders, such as Sun Guan, all bowed to accept the order.

"As you commanded, Master!"

After they finished speaking, they left. The vast main hall of Tiandao Sect was left with only Wu Que alone.

"Master's late period!"

This is a request to translate the content within into English. Please note:* Only the content inside the tags will be translated. * HTML tags will remain untranslated.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Wu Que murmured to himself.

There was a spark of brilliance in his eyes.

What the Heavenly Blade Sect currently lacks is a suitable external skill.

This is a tricky one! It seems like you're asking me to translate the content within the HTML tags "

" and "

", but you also want me to keep the tags themselves in place. To do that properly, I need to know what's *inside* the

tags. Could you please provide the text between the tags Once you give me the content, I can translate it for you!

With demon essence in hand, as long as there is a suitable external skill, entering the physical body directly is not a problem.

If there is no external aid, but directly devours essence blood, one carelessness may lead to a burst of the body.

Now that the invincible golden body auction has failed, the possibility of obtaining the Grandmaster's external skills in the future is greatly reduced.

“But according to Yuan Yang Auction House, in a few months, Shen Changqing will be able to auction off another master-level martial art. But judging from the news, that martial art is several levels higher than the Unbeatable Golden Body and not something our Tiandao Sect can afford—”

Unconquerable Golden Body, even with the wealth of Heavenly Blade Sect, they couldn't swallow it.

According to the news from Yuanyang Auction House, there will be an auction of a peak physical body's outer strength in a few months.

Unconquerable golden body.

That martial art had already reached a high level.

The Heavenblade Sect didn't have that kind of financial resources, not to mention that even if they did acquire the martial arts, they might not be able to keep it. That level of martial arts would be a huge temptation for many sects.

Unless.

Only if not a single piece of information leaks out can martial arts be preserved.

Therefore.

Wu Que didn't have high hopes for the auction in a few months.

“The two great systems of the Grandmaster, if I can't obtain the Grandmaster's external skills, then there are only two paths left to take. Either I forge my own system of Grandmaster's external skills, or I carry on with the existing teachings until their end——”

The former is very unlikely, he's not sure.

The latter's way is equally difficult, but it is the only visible path for Heavenly Blade Sect today.

Peak of the spiritual system!

If he could walk that step, the Heavenly Blade Sect would be a top-tier sect in the martial world.

"The physical and spiritual systems complement each other, advancing synchronously. This is the key to reaching the peak of potential. If you only cultivate the spiritual system without focusing on the physical, the difficulty will likely increase even further!"

Wu Que's brow furrowed, his fingers lightly tapping on the armrest.

He was thinking about the road ahead.

Though the Tiandao Sect is currently a major force in the martial world, it's far from being at the top.

Bottom line.

>

...or is Heavenly Blade Sect's current strength simply too weak

>Or, that is to say.

The strength of this Tian Dao Sect leader is too weak.

If one can bring a system to its peak, then why worry about the lack of master's external skills

If it's the peak of a system.

So when facing a newly formed forbidden zone, the Tiandao Sect wouldn't necessarily have to abandon so many years of foundation and retreat in shame.

Everything and nothing.

It's all caused by a lack of strength.

"Let's take another look!"

“If the auction a few months later doesn't work, then we'll focus on the spiritual system!”

Wu Que secretly made a decision.

Over several months, Tiandao Sect also managed to find out whether there was a forbidden zone in Xiaqiu Mountain.

If there is.

That day, the Dao Gate had better be ready to retreat.

Compared to the life and death of a school, many years of foundation are insignificant.

Gradually.

The sound inside the main hall, vanished, and everything returned to peace.

Two swift horses galloped fiercely, racing along the stony path. They ran one after the other, their speed like the wind.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“In another ten or so miles, we'll reach Xiaoqiu Mountain!”

Shen Changqing looked at the fleeting environment around him and spoke.

Although he had only visited Xiaoqiushan once, he firmly recorded the environment of Xiaoqiushan in his mind.

Especially this road, it was the very same path I took last time when I rushed from Xiaochu Mountain to the capital. It's something I know quite well.

>

Departing from the capital.

The two were constantly on the move. They only stopped their horses for necessary rest, otherwise they kept traveling.

It took a considerable amount of time for Xiaochu Shan to finally come into view.gqing had no doubt whatsoever.The Fire Domain is a living example.Although the current Jiutian Lingyan is certainly no match for its power in ancient times, destroying Tianzong would still be an easy...
