Chapter 285: The Future Belongs to You
When Chu Liang opened his eyes, he felt a bit unusual.
He lay on the bottom on the fringe of the stage with a blanket beneath him, whereas a disciple from the Corridor of Alchemy circulated his qi to assist his therapeutic.
Although he suffered minor accidents, the aftermath of burning his blood left him feeling even weaker than the palm strike delivered by Jiang Yuebai.
He was, nevertheless, in higher situation than Ling Ao. When he burnt his blood, he promptly replenished it utilizing the Dragon-Blood Crystal, mitigating the severity of the exhaustion. The 2 ultimate-tier Golden Cores would assist him get well shortly, so he would quickly be again in peak situation.
What puzzled him was the way in which individuals round him have been taking a look at him. Their gazes have been advanced, delicate, stuffed with blended feelings, and carried various levels of malice.
It was as if he had achieved one thing unforgivable.
Wait a minute?
A sudden flash of reminiscence hit Chu Liang, and the occasions earlier than he misplaced consciousness got here dashing again to him in a torrent of recollection.
At that second, Senior Sister Jiang unleashed the 5-Lightning Coronary heart of the Sky, an historical artwork famend because the strongest methodology utilized by qi practitioners in historical instances towards demons and devils. This superior lightning artwork had the ability to destroy the heavens and earth.
With mastery of this artwork, even a bodily weak cultivator wouldn’t should worry the strategy of a bodily highly effective demon, making it a traditional counter to melee fight. Jiang Yuebai’s deliberate use of this divine potential towards him was not a spur-of-the-moment determination.
Not solely would evil entities be restrained throughout the vary of the 5-Lightning Coronary heart of the Sky, however the usage of arts and strategies would even be inhibited as a result of the paralysis triggered by the artwork of lightning would have an effect on each the bodily physique and delay the movement of qi and the usage of divine intent.
This was the rationale why Chu Liang couldn’t teleport utilizing the Dimension Compression.
As an alternative, he may solely throw himself at Jiang Yuebai to keep away from the assault.
Mm, that was precisely what occurred.
It was all only a easy accident in the course of the struggle.
Why are you all obvious at me?
Sensing the overwhelming hostility from everybody round him, Chu Liang felt very wronged.
“Haaa,” he heaved a sigh.
He misplaced when he was just one step away from changing into the top disciple. Nonetheless, this defeat was justified. More often than not, such matches have been certainly competitions of trump playing cards. Jiang Yuebai mastered a large number of divine strategies, and since she hadn’t revealed any in earlier matches, Chu Liang was unaware of the strategies she may make use of and had no means to defend towards them.
Alternatively, he had unveiled all of the strategies he may make use of in the course of the bout towards Xu Ziyang, therefore why the result of this struggle was inside his expectation.
Furthermore, he was of a decrease cultivation degree than each Xu Ziyang and Jiang Yuebai. The truth that he reached this degree in fights towards a fourth-realm cultivator and a fifth-realm cultivator was no straightforward feat.
Though he didn’t win the title of head disciple, he was happy with this achievement.
I’ll simply want to move again and work even more durable cultivating. The journey of cultivation is lengthy, and I’ve solely simply begun, Chu Liang thought.
“Are you awake?” As Chu Liang remained in a daze, a voice out of the blue interrupted his practice of ideas. It was the Weapons Grasp, who was strolling over.
“I am positive now,” Chu Liang instantly stood up.
Jiang Yuebai accepted the Human Authority Token and responded firmly, “I’ll heed your teachings!”
On the Mount Shu Sect, there have been three tokens of authority: the Heaven Authority Token held by the sect chief, the Earth Authority Token belonging to the grand peak grasp, and the Human Authority Token held by the top disciple. All these tokens symbolized essentially the most highly effective people of their respective generations.
The sect chief, after all, managed all affairs throughout the immortal sect. Nonetheless, the sect chief, being the strongest within the sect, typically wouldn’t be the one to enterprise outdoors.
Thus, the grand peak grasp assumed accountability for quite a few day-to-day affairs and often represented the sect chief after they have been absent, receiving remedy equal to that of the sect chief from different immortal sects. Ought to the sect chief fall, the grand peak grasp could be the primary in line to succeed.
The top disciple was the face of the immortal sect. They have been the Mortal-Realm Wanderer of the sect.
Jiang Yuebai was undoubtedly a becoming consultant in each side.
Venerable Wen Yuan circled and spoke, “The turbulent instances forward current each alternative and problem on your era. It’s inside such tumult that the Violet and Azure Twin Swords have emerged. Ought to these swords choose you, you’ll shoulder appreciable accountability for Mount Shu. Given your excellent efficiency throughout this Mount Shu Summit, the 4 of you’ll accompany the Weapons Grasp to Sword Sheath Peak. There, you will see you probably have been chosen by destiny to wield the Violet and Azure Twin Swords.”
“Sure!” The 4 replied on the similar time.
Even earlier than the Mount Shu Summit started, rumors unfold that the Violet and Azure Twin Swords would select their masters from the disciples who carried out exceptionally nicely.
But, the definition of outstanding disciples remained considerably versatile.
Whereas selecting solely the 2 finalists was an choice, it’d really feel like imposing particular masters onto the Violet and Azure Twin Swords, which the notoriously choosy sword spirits may not recognize.
Nonetheless, if the Violet and Azure Twin Swords have been to decide on a grasp who proved to be too weak, it might undoubtedly lead to a loss for Mount Shu. Even when a disciple with solely common expertise have been to accumulate the swords, it remained unsure whether or not they may successfully safeguard Mount Shu.
Subsequently, after consulting with the sword spirits, the leaders of Mount Shu determined that the highest 4 finalists of the Mount Shu Summit would take part collectively within the choice course of.
Within the martial world, rumors advised that the spirits throughout the Violet and Azure Twin Swords have been as soon as lovers. It was believed that due to this bond, they most popular to pick out {couples} as their masters. The speculation was that with each sword wielders in a harmonious relationship, the ability unleashed by the swords could be even better.
As for whether or not this rumor was true, nobody knew for sure.
Again in these instances, essentially the most highly effective disciples in lots of Mount Shu Summits have been males. If this have been the case again then, would these males have wanted to make changes to align with the preferences of the Violet and Azure Twin Swords? The concept sounded very absurd.
A extra logical rationalization was that the 2 people chosen as sword masters would naturally spend ample time collectively for cultivation functions and would share duties equally.
Beneath such favorable circumstances, it was extra possible for these sword masters to kind romantic relationships and change into {couples}.
Over time, this rumor may have arisen, suggesting that the Violet and Azure Twin Swords solely choose {couples}.
Following this reasoning, it advised that Jiang Yuebai was very prone to be chosen as one of many sword masters.
Nonetheless, there have been many who envied those that would possibly change into the grasp of the opposite sword. They envied the man who would get the prospect to carry out the twin sword mixture with Fairy Jiang so intensely that they have been virtually going mad!
The viewers noticed the three younger males on stage, speculating which ones could be that lucky bastard.
Logically, Chu Liang had superior the farthest within the competitors, however his cultivation degree was considerably decrease. Xu Ziyang appeared just like the heroic determine able to saving Mount Shu, making him the most secure option to entrust with the swords. Ling Ao, however, had an excellent decrease cultivation degree than Chu Liang—a indisputable fact that shocked many. But, he possessed a mysterious and intriguing attraction, akin to a darkish horse candidate with surprising potential.
It was arduous to foretell the desire of the Violet and Azure Twin Swords.
Many individuals stayed behind, eagerly awaiting the ultimate information from Sword Sheath Peak.
Beneath the watchful eyes of the group, the Weapons Grasp transported the 4 disciples on a cloud, swiftly flying them to Sword Sheath Peak instantly.
