Chapter 1289: Dayan Jianzi, Do Not Look Down On Me Like This

In the starry sky of the Northern Plains, no more strange phenomena could be seen.

All the turmoil had subsided.

A generation's sovereign of the Northern Plains had suppressed the world for five thousand years, established the Laws of Master Tushan, and order spread to every corner of the world—from mortals below to the lofty Soul Transformation Canghai Tianjun above—none daring to disobey, not daring to overstep in the slightest.

All the Soul Transformation Canghai Tianjun were sincerely convinced, utterly humble.

Because, beneath the throne in Master Tushan Master Tushan Zhongting, countless bones were piled up—including the bones of many Soul Transformation Canghai Tianjun—a glorious throne built from the bones of countless mighty beings and fresh red blood.

Such a generation's world-suppressing, peerlessly powerful sovereign,

today, has finally ascended to the Upper Realm!

In that instant, nearly all the Soul Transformation Canghai Tianjun felt the sky brighten, the dark clouds that had shrouded the world for five thousand years scattering in that single moment.

The immense pressure was gone;

the strict, cage-like rules and restraints were instantly lifted. Though they knew better than anyone that these rules and restraints were beneficial to all, a strong desire to break everything and be free, unrestrained, was stirring within them;

The Dao of Immortality should be unfettered, free and at ease—only thus is it the great freedom, the great transcendence!

"Finally, freedom…"

A female cultivator named Snow Kite Canghai Tianjun murmured to herself.

She was a newly advanced Soul Transformation Canghai Tianjun, hailing from the Master Tushan Maid Corps. Before this, she had always felt an immense pressure, living in constant fear, not daring to attract the sovereign's attention in the slightest.

Because she knew the final fates of many Canghai Tianjun throughout history—these were all recorded in the histories, not concealed or kept secret, but offered for all to read.

However, the temptation within this was too great…

Besides, she had been extremely covert, repeatedly careful; even Gong Gong Caiyu Canghai Tianjun, who monitored the world, could not discover anything—there might not be any ill consequences.

In fact, she had gambled correctly: today Master Tushan ascended.

"Finally…"

Snow Kite Canghai Tianjun felt immense relief in her heart, a smile appearing at the corner of her lips, unable to resist letting a little of her inner thoughts slip out.

"Finally what?"

A voice said suddenly.

"Naturally, it's Master Tushan…"

Snow Kite Canghai Tianjun answered instinctively.

Immediately after, her scalp prickled with fear, her body trembling.

She stiffly turned her head, looking at the blue-robed youth who had once again appeared not far away.

He was smiling as he looked in this direction.

"M-Master…"

Snow Kite Canghai Tianjun spoke incoherently.

"Greetings, Canghai Tianjun!"

"Greetings, Master!"

Li Qingyun Canghai Tianjun, Da'ai Canghai Tianjun, and the Master Tushan Maid Corps' Gong Gong Caiyu Canghai Tianjun, Lou Xi Canghai Tianjun, Yeyue Canghai Tianjun, and others bowed in salute, not startled.

Li Qingyun Canghai Tianjun and the others

The older generation of Canghai Tianjun knew that Master Tushan had a habit—maintaining concealment arts at all times, even ordinarily.

This was a habit he had had since childhood.

Therefore, they too had developed a habit of not fully trusting their divine sense; their physical eyes were likewise an area requiring great attention.

Of course, they knew even more clearly that this was because Master Tushan had not deliberately concealed himself; otherwise, the physical eyes could not have discovered him either.

"Finally what?"

Master Tushan Jiang Ding asked again.

"Master,"

"Your true body has ascended, and this subordinate missed you with all her heart, grieved beyond measure, hence speaking incoherently…"

Snow Kite Canghai Tianjun instantly returned to normal, bowed in salute, and said with a charming smile.

She looked ordinary, and in fact was ordinary—never having received so much as a single word spoken directly to her by Master Tushan Canghai Tianjun's true body, nor an extra glance.

But this was ordinary among the many Soul Transformation Canghai Tianjun of Master Tushan Master Tushan Zhongting.

In another dimension, she was the most outstanding rising talent of Master Tushan Master Tushan Zhongting in three thousand years—top-tier in research, creativity, combat and slaughter, and in worldly wisdom—worthy of being called an unparalleled prodigy of the Minor Thousand Worlds.

She knew clearly that Master Tushan Canghai Tianjun, without evidence, would not take action against anyone; she had sufficient confidence in this, believing that even if there were suspicions, nothing would truly be done.

Besides, this was only a clone.

Master Tushan suppressed the world, and all heroes bowed their heads—this was only proper.

Could it be that even a mere clone commanded the same?

Snow Kite Canghai Tianjun sneered inwardly.

"So that's how it is."

"You missed me—very good."

Master Tushan Jiang Ding nodded slightly.

He no longer paid attention to Snow Kite Canghai Tianjun, looking instead at Lieyang Canghai Tianjun and Ice Snow Canghai Tianjun Mu Mu Tianxue.

"Dayan Jianzi,"

Lieyang Canghai Tianjun bowed respectfully, awaiting orders, and seemed to know what the orders would be.

He revealed an expectant look, gazing at Mu Mu Tianxue, a cold and violent killing intent blooming in his eyes, as if he had caught the scent of a supreme delicacy, not showing the slightest fear because of the Blood Spirit Sacred Body's Dao-body talent.

"Dayan Jianzi!"

"I really didn't do anything this time!"

Mu Mu Tianxue gave a start, pointing to the sky and swearing an oath: "You can't look down on people like this—it's only three thousand years, I'm not so far gone that I've lost my memory; I'm not a Nascent Soul cultivator."

"At the very least, it would take eight or nine thousand years before she would fight to the death..."

She immediately fell silent.

She wore an expression of grievance, as if snow had fallen in the sixth month like Dou E, having suffered immense injustice.

"My Lord, I am the same!"

Hei Lou Xi also rushed to say, "Moreover, I am the most honest one. I will help you watch this woman. Once she reaches nine thousand years and reveals her true colors, I will be the first to kill her!"

"Once she reaches nine thousand years and reveals her true colors, I will be the first to kill her!"

Jiang Ding paid no attention to the two women.

"Lie Yang."

He looked at Lie Yang Canghai Tianjun with interest and asked, "You do not challenge me?"

"With my true body gone, my strength has dropped significantly. It seems I have reached the position of a 'ladder,' a fine resource for a sword cultivator, very delicious..."

"Do you wish to try?"

Jiang Ding proposed.

"Sword Disciple,"

"You look down on me too much. This is not proper."

Lie Yang Canghai Tianjun said calmly, "Sword cultivators of the Sword Pavilion who challenge the Sword Disciple always do so with their true bodies, not otherwise. That would be meaningless. It is not the sword heart a Great Sun Sword Cultivator should possess."

"If I challenge you one day, I will certainly choose your most peak state."

"Now, your true body is already in the Upper Realm."

He said with longing, "Then, I wish your true body may one day attain the form of an immortal, so that when I challenge you in the future, I too may have the possibility of becoming an immortal."

"Only thus would it not betray the sword practice in the mortal world!"

"Is that what you think?"

"Hei has taught you quite well, after all."

Jiang Ding smiled.

Hei did not ascend to the Upper Realm with the true body, for it could no longer provide Jiang Ding with karmic concealment; instead, it would increase the possibility of exposure. In this regard, the methods of a Dao-Integration level power provided support.

Hei remains in this world.

"Little Junior Uncle, do you need me to clear away Soul Transformation cultivators for you?"

Li Qingyun Canghai Tianjun Han Lin asked.

It was clear he was somewhat worried about the combat power of Jiang Ding's current projection, fearing Jiang Ding might show weakness.

Moreover, he seemed to possess extremely great confidence, capable of sweeping through the surroundings. This cultivator, who had always been unremarkable, revealed a hint of brilliance at this moment.

If Tushan Tian Jun does not mind,

he is willing to cleanse this world, suppress the four directions, and uphold the Tushan Law until he ascends to the Upper Realm.
