Dressed in a plain white monk's robe, Yun Shen nodded and smiled in acknowledgment, his words and actions conveying a sense of politeness.
"Master Yun Shen, greetings. My name is Mu Nianci. It seems you've been waiting for me. Is there something you need?"
Mu Nianci clasped her hands together and bowed respectfully.
"Excuse me, was that incredibly powerful expert from last night a friend of Miss Mu?"
This Master Yun Shen was the Tantric practitioner who fought against Chu Yang.
Upon hearing the monk mention Chu Yang, Mu Nianci immediately became wary, silently pressing her hand against the whip wrapped around her waist without uttering a word.
"Miss Mu, please rest assured. Last night, I was no match for that master in our magical duel. He spared my life, which is why I am able to live to this day and speak with you."
Master Yun Shen spoke of his crushing defeat without any hesitation, showing no resentment whatsoever.
Seeing that he had no intention of seeking revenge, Mu Nianci asked in confusion, "Then why is Master seeking out Brother Chu?"
"Asked the question."
Master Yun Shen replied crisply and decisively.
As the most gifted practitioner of Tantric Buddhism, he entered the path through Buddhism and martial arts. He looks young, but he is already over a hundred years old. Today, his path has come to an end, and he has made no further progress.
Chu Yang's power was something he had never seen before; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a terrestrial immortal.
After his battle with Chu Yang, Master Yun Shen experienced a sudden enlightenment, and his bottleneck was somewhat relieved, which gave him the idea to ask Chu Yang for guidance.
Mu Nianci didn't understand the specific meaning of "asking the question," but she could sense that the other party had been convinced by Chu Yang, and therefore no longer harbored any hostility towards him.
“Master Yun Shen is late. Brother Chu and the others left last night. I did not travel with them and do not know where they went.”
Mu Nianci said shyly.
"It is because this humble monk lacks the necessary karmic connections; I cannot blame the benefactor."
Yun Shen couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Seeing his state, Mu Nianci felt sorry for him and said softly, "I know where Brother Chu lives, but I don't know when he will be able to return home. If you don't mind, Master, I can tell you."
Yun Shen glanced at the kind-hearted girl, whose body was surrounded by worldly threads, one of which was connected to a small town in the Southern Song Dynasty.
This is the Buddhist supernatural power awakened by Yun Shen after a hundred years of cultivation—the power of knowing past lives.
Yun Shen's ability to see one's destiny is at a beginner level. He can briefly see a person's future, but under normal circumstances, he cannot see any specific things. It is very ethereal, like a dream.
The reason Mu Nianci was so clear about this was because her fate was intertwined with Chu Yang's.
"Miss Mu will be going there again in the future. If you don't mind, may this humble monk travel with you?"
.........
The little red horse galloped across the grasslands for more than a month before Chu Yang and Huang Rong finally returned to the Ming Dynasty.
We've seen enough scenery, but we've also suffered quite a bit.
As she was leaving, Huang Rong was still shouting that she would never come again.
According to the plan, Chu Yang also needs to go to Wudang Mountain to meet Master Zhang.
Through his battle with the Tantric monks, Chu Yang was certain that the Zhang Sanfeng of this world was definitely a cultivator.
Illusion techniques shouldn't work on Zhang Sanfeng; the best approach is to force him to make a move.
After entering a small border town, Chu Yang and Huang Rong found an inn to rest for a while. Just as they went up to the second floor to order food, they heard a storyteller talking about recent major events in the martial arts world.
In just over a month, the martial arts world has been in turmoil.
"You've all heard about the Ancient Tomb Sect incident a while ago, right?"
"Rumor has it that the Nine Yin Manual, the most extraordinary martial arts manual in the world, is hidden in that small Ancient Tomb Sect at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain!"
"A man is innocent but guilty of possessing a treasure!"
"After the news spread like wildfire, many martial arts sects and masters went to Zhongnan Mountain to compete for the Nine Yin Manual."
"Their thinking was simple: if they couldn't afford to offend Wang Chongyang's Quanzhen Sect, could they at least afford to offend the obscure Ancient Tomb Sect?"
"Therefore, the Ancient Tomb Sect suffered a great calamity. The sect was occupied, and the only two remaining disciples managed to escape with great difficulty thanks to an old servant who fought to the death."
"Speaking of which, that old servant was also loyal and righteous. Even after being tortured in every way, he did not reveal the whereabouts of his two disciples."
"Snapped!"
The porcelain bowl shattered on the ground, and Huang Rong looked at Chu Yang with fear and unease.
Chu Yang's face was grim. The Ancient Tomb Sect had always been aloof from worldly affairs and did not interact with outsiders. He never expected that news of the Nine Yin Manual would be leaked.
"Xiao Chu, those two are now..."
The thought that the adorable baby might suffer a terrible fate brought tears to Huang Rong's eyes, and her tears fell onto the table with a soft pattering sound.
"Don't cry yet, the storyteller hasn't finished."
Inside the hall, the diners watched the storyteller intently, waiting for him to finish a sip of hot tea and let out a long sigh before they heard what he was going to say next.
"What I am about to say are some unverified rumors. Take them with a grain of salt and don't take them seriously."
"It is said that after the two disciples of the Ancient Tomb Sect escaped, they came here for some unknown reason. They were caught up in the conflict between the Demonic Sect and the Six Major Sects and were kidnapped by the Demonic Sect and taken to Bright Peak."
"The six major sects have a long-standing grudge against them, and with this incident added to the mix, they might as well join forces to besiege Bright Peak this time."
The storyteller was in the middle of his tale when suddenly a young man who looked like a scholar appeared before him, and his voice came to an abrupt halt.
The scholar cupped his hands and said, "Storyteller, I would like to ask why those two disciples of the Ancient Tomb Sect ended up in the Ming Dynasty?"
The storyteller scratched his head and chuckled, then hesitated for a moment before saying, "I heard they actually wanted to go to Mongolia, but they were intercepted halfway by the people from the Six Major Sects."
The scholar closed his eyes, his face expressionless, and a chill spread throughout the hall.
The storyteller, who had traveled all over the country, was quite knowledgeable and realized that the scholar in front of him was not someone to be trifled with, so he silently took a few steps back, intending to leave quietly.
Just then, the scholar suddenly opened his eyes, smiled and bowed to the storyteller, then beckoned the girl who was with him to leave.
The girl's face was filled with a fierce look.
After the two left, all the porcelain in the restaurant suddenly shattered!
Chu Yang returned to the stables and retrieved the carriage, then instructed Huang Rong, "I'll go to Bright Peak first. You drive the carriage and follow me. Be careful."
Huang Rong nodded obediently.
After saying that, Chu Yang didn't bother to hide it anymore and soared into the sky, disappearing into the horizon.
Bright Peak is located on the border of the Ming Dynasty, built on a continuous mountain range. Due to the harsh geographical environment, it is basically untouched.
However, this time the six major sects traveled thousands of miles to besiege Bright Peak, causing quite a stir. Even from high above, Chu Yang could see the long, narrow crowd, indicating that the plot was spread far and wide.
Following the direction of the crowd, Chu Yang quickly found Bright Summit atop the mountains.
The battle appears to have been going on for some time.
Blood flowed like a river on the entire Bright Summit.
Perhaps due to some changes in the plot, Chu Yang did not see the scene of Zhang Wuji fighting against the six major sects alone.
All that remained was a frenzied battle between the two armies.
Blood flows into a river.
Chu Yang stood in the void, watching these people fight indifferently. He didn't care about their lives or deaths; he only wanted to find Xiaolongnu and Li Mochou.
Soon, someone noticed Chu Yang's presence and instinctively shouted in surprise, "Look, there's someone in the sky!"
The man had barely finished shouting when he was slashed to the ground. Even as he died, his eyes were still fixed on the sky.
Everyone on Bright Peak was in a bloodthirsty frenzy; who cared what he was saying?
In the chaos, Chu Yang landed next to the unfortunate man, glanced down at him, and then crushed his throat with a single stomp, ending his agonizing existence.
Chu Yang slowly walked forward through the pool of blood. Those who wanted to kill him all inexplicably fell into the pool of blood and died.
No one noticed how Chu Yang killed people; it was just that, without anyone noticing, so many people died that a vacuum appeared around him.
Chu Yang grabbed a Ming Cult disciple who was still breathing and asked, "Where are the two disciples from the Ancient Tomb Sect?"
The Ming Cult disciple did not answer, but instead spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva.
An invisible wave of air blocked the spittle. Chu Yang frowned, dragged the Ming Cult disciple into the illusion space, and began to interrogate him. After learning the answer, his face showed some surprise.
This Ming Cult disciple was under the Five Elements Banner. In his memory, the Ming Cult did not kidnap Li Mochou and Xiaolongnu, but rescued them from the six major sects.
Seeing the chaotic scene at Bright Peak and the disciples of the six major sects, Chu Yang flew into a rage and unleashed his Conqueror's Haki with a roar.
An invisible wave rippled outwards, and apart from a few experts, most of the disciples of the six major sects and the Ming Cult members fell to the ground unconscious.
The remaining experts looked at Chu Yang in horror.
I have a fever, I don't know if it's because I tested positive. Lately, I've been writing for more than 13 or 14 hours a day, and my body is starting to feel the strain... I haven't had any drafts saved up since the third day after the book went on sale. The book is doing okay so far, but to ensure quality, I'll guarantee at least 300,000 words this month! I'll try my best to maintain both quality and quantity!
Chapter 107. Annihilating Three Sects, Target Zhang Sanfeng! [107 words, please continue reading]
107.
The six major sects and the Ming Cult were locked in a fierce battle. There were at least seven or eight thousand disciples on both sides, if not ten thousand, but all of them fainted after Chu Yang's roar.
