Chapter 570: Closed-door Meditation Complete, Jian Changfeng’s Cover Blown, I’m Sent By Master Too
Seven Emotions Sect.
The conjurations in the sky that happened as a result of Chu Kuangren creating a new cultivation technique gradually disappeared.
Inside his meditation chamber, Chu Kuangren slowly opened his eyes. As he opened his hand, an immeasurably terrifying Daoist Rhyme began to swirl on the center of his palm.
It was the Daoist Rhyme from the cultivation technique he created!
He knew that this cultivation technique was still a prototype with great growth potential in the future. In terms of power, this mere prototype of his has already surpassed most Emperor Techniques. Moreover, he had created it according to his Invincible Dao.
With such a cultivation technique, his combat strength would undoubtedly increase.
“Since this technique is made based on my Invincible Dao, I shall name it the… Invincible Technique!”
Chu Kuangren quickly named his cultivation technique without much thought.
After that, he tidied his belongings and prepared to leave.
When Lady Leng Yue and the others saw Chu Kuangren coming out, everyone hurriedly went to greet him.
“Brother Chu, congratulations on completing your closed-door meditation.”
“That conjuration in the sky was very frightening, Brother Chu. Do you mind telling us what technique you have created?”
Chu Kuangren nodded slightly. “Oh, it’s nothing much.”
He did not say much about it. The Indomitable Technique was one of his trump cards, so it would not be wise of him to tell anyone else.
Lady Leng Yue also knew that such a technique he created was incredibly rare and might even involve some hidden secret of the Emperors. As such, she did not ask much about it.
“Brother Chu, now that you’ve completed your closed-door meditation session, I suppose you’ll be heading to the Forbidden Barren Wastelands, right?”
Lady Leng Yue changed the topic and asked.
Chu Kuangren’s eyes lit up upon hearing that. “So the Forbidden Barren Wastelands is opened?”
He had heard of the Forbidden Barren Wastelands before.
He knew that it was a great area filled with great Opportunities of Fortune in the Emperor Road. It might even contain more valuables if not the same compared to the Enchanted Forest Realm.
“It has. Both Ningyu and Chi Yue just set out towards there two days ago,” Lady Leng Yue said.
“I see. This Forbidden Barren Wasteland does seem interesting indeed.”
Since it was a place of great Opportunities of Fortune, Chu Kuangren would not easily let this opportunity slip by.
He soon bid farewell to Lady Leng Yue and the others.
…
Inside the Forbidden Barren Wasteland.
At a certain mountain range, the Sword Daoist was leading a group of his tribe members to explore the place.
Each of them had obtained Opportunities of Fortune of their own during the past few days of being in the Forbidden Barren Wastelands and have thus become stronger respectively. This was especially true for the Sword Daoist, who was already an outlawed sky-pride. With the help of several Opportunities of Fortune, he also improved rapidly in strength. His cultivation level was just one step away from reaching a Boundary Emperor’s level.
“Not enough. This is far from being enough!”
“With this pace, I’ll never be able to match Chu Kuangren at all!”
The Sword Daoist looked at the longsword in his hand. It was the Godly Golden Emperor Sword, one of the Emperor Weapons of the Sword Tribe.
The Sword Tribe Leader had given this sword to him when he was about to travel to the Forbidden Barren Wasteland. Due to his Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart, he quickly gained the sword’s acknowledgment and refined it right after.
With that sword in his possession, he was currently more powerful than the elders in the Sword Tribe.
However, despite the help of the Emperor Weapon and his increased cultivation level, he still felt that he was not strong enough to fight Chu Kuangren.
‘Emperor Weapon?’
‘Chu Kuangren has them as well, and several of them at that. This doesn’t even put me at an advantage over him.’
‘Cultivation level?’
‘What else is there to say about that? That guy is a Supreme Sage. His foundations are far stronger than mine, and with that Wood Elemental Leyline Essence, he’ll undoubtedly reach a Boundary Emperor’s level once he refines it.’
As of now, he had no chance of winning against Chu Kuangren.
The Sword Daoist understood that fact.
“If I want to go against Chu Kuangren, I’ll either need to have a completed Emperor Weapon or increase my cultivation to the level of a top-notch Boundary Emperor. Along with my Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart, I might have a chance to fight him. Besides, there’s also my Sword Dao. If I can improve it until the perfected stage, I might even be able to fight against a Sovereign!”
“It looks like it’s time to go find that item.”
The Sword Daoist murmured and then took out a green lamp. It was the Divine Emerald Lamp.
At this time, a flame was already burning inside it, radiating the Divine Lamp with mysterious rays of light.
Somewhere nearby, Swordsman Mei’s eyes lit up uncontrollably upon seeing this.
“My Master is correct. The Sword Daoist does indeed have the Divine Lamp’s wick. Now that the wick has been returned to its rightful place, the Sword Daoist should be getting ready to do something by now.”
Swordsman Mei thought.
She was right. Right after that, the Sword Daoist was seen channeling his spiritual power into the Divine Emerald Lamp, which automatically pointed towards a certain direction.
“So it’s over there?”
The Sword Daoist followed along the path guided by the Divine Lamp and led the rest of them with him.
Swordsman Mei did not immediately follow after him but stayed at the back of the group instead. She was going to send a secret message to Chu Kuangren.
However, she soon noticed that besides her, Jian Changfeng was also acting a bit sneaky within the group.
She started to feel suspicious and decided to observe him in secret.
She soon realized that Jian Changfeng was sending a message to someone too. Could it be…
Swordsman Mei’s eyes lit up when she figured it out.
‘Jian Changfeng is one of Master’s men!’
Swordsman Mei could not help but lament Chu Kuangren’s tactics.
Since Jian Changfeng was sending the message, she might as well save herself the trouble. Yet just as she decided to leave, she suddenly noticed something strange.
There was someone else spying on Jian Changfeng from within the void as well.
She recognized that person to be one of the Sword Daoist’s three great Shadow Swordsmen, Swordsman Yin!
Swordsman Yin grinned when he noticed she was looking at him. Then, he signaled to her to stay silent before disappearing without a trace.
Swordsman Mei was shocked. ‘What does he mean?!’
‘Did Swordsman Yin find out that Jian Changfeng was secretly contacting Master by coincidence? Or did the Sword Daoist suspect him and thus sent Swordsman Yin to investigate it?’
‘What about me?’
‘Has my identity been exposed too?’
Swordsman Mei suppressed the panicking feeling within her. As she looked at Jian Chanfeng, who had yet realized anything at all, her figure flashed and disappeared into thin air too.
She went to the Sword Daoist and noticed that Swordsman Yin was already there with him.
“Master, your suspicions were correct. Jian Changfeng was indeed secretly sending messages to Chu Kuangren…”
Swordsman Yin was reporting to the Sword Daoist about Jian Changfeng.
“Greetings, Master.”
Swordsman Mei approached them both. She appeared normal, without the slightest hint of panic on her expression.
Swordsman Yin laughed beside her and said, “Your reputation is well-deserved, Swordsman Mei. I only started to notice Jian Changfeng after Master ordered me to do so. Never did I think you’d find out his strange behavior as well. That level of vigilance you have is greater than mine.”
“Oh, Mei’er, have you noticed something too?” The Sword Daoist was a bit surprised.
“Yes, I realized Jian Changfeng has been acting strange these days and hence decided to observe him more. I was going to report to Master about this but didn’t realize that you had already noticed it. It seems that my actions were unnecessary.” Swordsman Mei chuckled.
“It was only a suspicion, but little did I think that Jian Changfeng would indeed betray me. I wonder what benefits did Chu Kuangren offer to get him on his side.”
“Master, when did you start to suspect him?”
“When we were in the Enchanted Forest Realm the last time, Chu Kuangren was able to appear without activating any of the sealing restrictions and snatch the White Spiritual Divine Fruit away. After that, I started to realize something wasn’t right. Enchanted Forest Realm is such a large place. What was the possibility of Chu Kuangren showing up there of all places? That was when I started to suspect Jian Changfeng.”
“I see. Since we already know, I shall go and kill him.”
Swordsman Mei said coldly.
“No hurries. I can use him to deal with Chu Kuangren by letting Jian Changfeng deliver the wrong information to him. Just you wait, Chu Kuangren, your cleverness shall be the reason for your downfall.”
The Sword Daoist sneered as if he was a strategist who controlled the battle.
There was a look of admiration on Swordsman Mei’s face. “What a brilliant idea, Master.”
However, she was also sneering secretly inside her heart.
‘Oh, my dear Sword Daoist, would it shock you to know that I’m also a spy sent by Master?!’
