Chapter 304

They never expected that their sect's supreme technique, passed down for hundreds of years, could actually... actually be optimized and refined so easily into such a perfect state?!

This... this is simply... turning the rotten into the miraculous!

In their gaze toward Brother Ning Chuan, there was an endless frenzy and worship!

In their hearts, Brother Ning Chuan was no longer a simple "Master," but an existence like a benefactor who had given them a second life!

They knew that with this 【Xuan Nü Tian Mo Ce】, their Menyinkui Sect would surely usher in a brand new, even more glorious era!

And Zhu Yuyan even felt that the bottleneck of the Earthly Immortal Realm, which had troubled her for many years, showed signs of loosening after comprehending this new Cultivation Method!

She was confident that she could successfully break through in a short time!

Seeing that Zhu Yuyan and her disciple had completely submitted their hearts, Brother Ning Chuan let them stay on Taohuadao for the time being to cultivate in peace.

When the time was ripe in the future, he would send them out to execute missions.

And Brother Ning Chuan himself continued to immerse himself in stabilizing his own cultivation base and comprehending those vast and numerous classics.

He had to make the most thorough preparations for the coming "Transformation Tribulation"!

Outside the island, the Wu Lin was still boiling continuously due to a series of earth-shattering changes that had occurred on Taohuadao.

"Did you hear? That Dragon Island Lord of Taohuadao is not only unfathomably powerful, but can also easily suppress even Earthly Immortals!"

"He is even incredibly powerful, able to summon wind and rain and invoke the divine thunder of the nine heavens!"

"He is simply an existence like a god!"

"Yes, yes! I also heard that even the thousand-year holy land of the Fomen, Songshan Shaolin, was... was refined by him! Thousands of Gao Seng, along with two ancestors of the Earthly Immortal Realm level, all became his 'resources'!"

"Sss—! This is too... too cruel?! It's even more ruthless than the demons of the Bimo Sect!"

"Shh! Speak softly! Do you want to lose your life?! That person is not someone we can discuss at will!"

"And that North Liang heir Xu Fengnian, it is said that because he offended the Dragon Island Lord, he was hung on a reef in the East Sea and served as fish bait for seven days and seven nights! His tongue was even cut off! It was too terrible to behold!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, this time the North Liang Wang Fu has really lost face to the extreme!"

"..."

All kinds of discussions and guesses continued to ferment on the Wu Lin.

Brother Ning Chuan's fame had long shone like a brilliant sun over the entire Great Song, and even all the surrounding dynasties!

He had become a taboo existence that no one dared to provoke lightly!

At the same time, in the faraway Great Ming Dynasty, on Mount Wudang, in the Zixiao Palace.

An old Taoist priest, dressed in a simple Taoist robe, with white beard and hair, yet possessing an immortal air and bone structure, and full of spirit, stood with his hands behind his back at the mountain peak, gazing towards the direction of the East Sea.

He was the recognized leader of the Wu Lin of the present age, whose cultivation base had already reached the Earthly Immortal Realm, and perhaps even higher—the founding ancestor of the Wu Dangpai, Zhang Sanfeng!

Behind him stood several disciples also dressed in Taoist robes with steady auras, such as Song Yuanqiao, Yu Yu Lianzhou, and his most beloved grand-disciple Zhang Wuji and others.

"Sigh..."

Zhang Sanfeng listened to the various earth-shattering rumors about the dragon of Taohuadao that his disciples had brought back from the foot of the mountain.

He could not help but sigh lightly, and a complex and hard-to-define light flashed in those deep and wise eyes.

"The waves of the Yangtze push the waves ahead; in the world, new people replace the old."

"This old Taoist... is truly old."

In his heart, he was filled with relief.

He was relieved that when he faced that mysterious "Island Lord Ning" back then, he chose to treat him with courtesy and formed a good karmic connection.

Instead of going to provoke him like Songshan Shaolin did, without knowing life or death.

Otherwise, given the dragon's domineering style of action, I fear his Mount Wudang would have met the same fate as the Shaolin Temple, with the entire sect wiped out.

He boasted of martial arts reaching the mysterious, not being inferior to that Ning Daoqi or the Sweeping Monk in the slightest.

Even, in some aspects, he was even superior.

But, facing that terrifying dragon capable of invoking the divine thunder of the nine heavens, hard-fighting the heavenly tribulation, and even refining thousands of Fomen Gao Seng as "resources,"

He... had not the slightest chance of victory.

Brother Ning Chuan's growth speed was simply too fast!

So fast that even this old monster who had lived for hundreds of years felt shock and... a hint of powerlessness.

And at this moment, in the even more distant North Liang Wang Fu, inside the Tingchao Pavilion, which symbolized supreme authority and iron-blooded slaughter.

The atmosphere was a dead silence, suppressed to the extreme!

The North Liang King, Xu Xiao, this "Human Butcher" who had once spent his life in military campaigns, killed people like hemp, held power that overshadowed the court, and even made the Emperor of Liang wary of him by a third.

Was now kneeling quietly before the spirit tablet of the Wang Fei Wu Su, saying not a word.

On that weather-beaten face, full of dignity and domineering aura, for the first time appeared the... exhaustion and anger that could not be concealed!

Beside him, countless chess pieces that had been crushed lay scattered.

Obviously, the anger in his heart had long reached a critical point about to explode!

The news that Xu Fengnian had been captured, hung on a reef in the East Sea, and suffered humiliation.

Had long been transmitted back to the North Liang Wang Fu through secret channels.

The entire North Liang, because of this news, had fallen into a dead silence and... an anger that could not be suppressed!
