Realm-Hopping Martial Master-Chapter 483 - 288: Return to the Sect! I am an Inner Sect Disciple of the True Martial Sect_2
For a hundred years, the two had been both teacher and friend. After a brief farewell, suddenly, he felt a surge of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, appearing out of thin air, completely envelop him. It slowly transported him out of the darkness.
A voice whispered in his ear, "If you can successfully overcome the tribulations of wind, fire, and thunder, you may return here to comprehend the Great Dao my master left within the stone gate."
"Thank you, senior."
The world was vast. Gazing at the Abyss, which perpetually exerted a suction force, Jiang Shu felt as if he were in a dream.
Who could have imagined? In the outside world, a little over half a year had passed. Yet, he had engaged in Cultivation for more than two hundred years, becoming invincible within his realm. His foundation was so profound that even a Nirvana Realm Monarch would be left speechless with amazement upon witnessing it.
SWOOSH!
He took one last deep look at the Abyss, the Wenxian Palace flashing through his mind.
Without lingering further, Jiang Shu transformed into a beam of light and flew straight toward Han Zhiqing’s location.
Having unraveled the mysteries of the most secretive Wenxian Palace on the island, nothing there could pose any threat to him.
Now, he just needed to take Han Zhiqing back to the True Martial Sect.
It’s time to conclude the matter with Zhou Yan.
Hmm? She’s not here?
In just half a quarter-hour, Jiang Shu flew from the island’s inner perimeter to its outer edge, yet he couldn’t find Han Zhiqing anywhere.
He knew that due to the contract they had established, he could sense her location through their connection, even if she fled to the ends of the earth.
What could Han Zhiqing possibly use to resist him?
Unless she had encountered an accident.
Forming a hand seal, Jiang Shu took a few breaths and then his eyes snapped open; he seemed to faintly perceive Han Zhiqing’s current position.
He took a step forward, not even bothering to use the treasure ship.
Instead, he transformed directly into a streak of light, flying swiftly across the Endless Sea.
All the Inner Core Realm Demon Beasts, upon sensing Jiang Shu’s aura, scattered and fled, daring not to linger.
His flight speed increased, and gradually, he drew closer to Han Zhiqing.
He sensed the air ahead churning with the clashes of Divine Skills.
"Han Po, you murderous wretch! You plotted to kill my Dao Yi Sect Inner Sect Brother. No matter where you flee, to the ends of the earth or the corners of the sea, you will surely die!"
"I’ve said it already! Zhao Lingpeng was not killed by me! I am willing to swear a Heavenly Dao Oath! Why won’t you believe me!"
Han Zhiqing’s voice was frantic and weak. She had exhausted all her trump cards, and her protective treasured robes were tattered and torn.
Around her stood three Inner Sect Disciples of the Dao Yi Sect, forming an encirclement with killing intent. Each one looked at Han Zhiqing as if she were a mouse being toyed with by cats.
"Such glib words! Han Zhiqing, are you aware that countless Loose Cultivators saw us accompanying Brother Zhao when we set out to sea to hunt you? Now Brother Zhao has not returned. If you didn’t kill him, then who did?"
"Did you think you could escape our pursuit by hiding in the inner regions of the Endless Sea? Little did you know, Fuhai City has Dao Yi Sect Elders skilled in the Divine Skill of Heavenly Divination! With just a wisp of your aura from the Cave Mansion you rented, they pinpointed your location."
"This time, we were specifically ordered to capture you and execute you before Fuhai City, as a sacrifice to appease Brother Zhao’s spirit in heaven!"
"Cease your futile resistance!"
"If you obediently disclose the Island Master’s whereabouts, we might grant you an intact corpse."
One of the Dao Yi Sect Disciples spoke with a commanding voice, their murderous encirclement palpable. Nearby, some Loose Cultivators watched the unfolding drama from a distance.
These Loose Cultivators were mostly True Men of the Early-stage Primordial Pill Realm, having mastered only ten Divine Skills. They were virtually powerless against the Dao Yi Sect Disciples.
They dared not interfere.
"Han Zhiqing is doomed this time. I’ve said it before: serendipitous opportunities are not for ordinary Loose Cultivators like us to possess. It seems she attracted the attention of the Dao Yi Sect’s Inner Sect Disciples because of such an opportunity. Now, she’s brought this disaster upon herself."
"Lower your voice; those Dao Yi Sect Disciples are still up ahead. If it were me, I’d have obediently handed over the opportunity. The Dao Yi Sect is so prominent; surely they wouldn’t take an opportunity for nothing? They ought to give something in return."
"Hand over the opportunity? As far as I know, the first ones coveting Han Po’s opportunity were a few Furnace Fire Realm Outer Disciples of the Dao Yi Sect. If it were you, would you have relinquished it?"
A Loose Cultivator True Man who knew the inside story shook his head. "Actually, she should have just fled back then. Her mistake was not only killing the Dao Yi Sect’s Outer Disciples but also luring Inner Sect Disciples into a battle with an unknown Island Master, which led to the death of an Inner Sect Disciple."
"We’re talking about an Inner Sect Disciple of the Dao Yi Sect here—they are the pillars of the Sect! Moreover, this isn’t just the death of a Disciple; it’s a slap in the face to the Dao Yi Sect. Didn’t you hear those Inner Sect Disciples? A Nirvana Realm Elder was involved in tracking Han Po down this time."
"Truly terrifying! In the Endless Sea, if we encounter Disciples of the Dao Yi Sect from now on, it’s best to steer clear if possible. We can’t afford to provoke them, but surely we can afford to hide from them."
The group of Loose Cultivators continued to exchange mental messages, all while gradually increasing their distance, content to observe from afar.
However, just when everyone believed Han Zhiqing’s fate was sealed,
a terrifying giant hand materialized between heaven and earth. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
This hand, condensed purely from Primordial Power and spiritual power, directly traversed the Space Turbulence.
All the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi surged violently towards the giant hand.
The intense fluctuations of Primordial Power and spiritual power rendered everyone immobile, as if a Nirvana Realm Monarch themselves had descended upon them.
