Chapter 692: Chapter 307 Young Blood Revenge (Please Subscribe)_3

The extended clash of swords was already a test of will, and what more of repeated sword techniques?

It’s known that at every breath, their exchange could reach up to thirty-nine strikes, slowing down only slightly later, never less than twenty.

Chu Xisheng could no longer recall how many times he had used these two moves.

Assuming twenty sword strikes per breath, and an average person breathing twenty times a minute, he likely used ‘Return Light’ and ‘Void Hall Mirror’ no less than a hundred thousand times.

The Blood Revenge Blade Lord was incredibly tenacious, having lasted for twelve hours before exhausting his Primordial Qi.

However, this battle had its advantages; Chu now had a more comprehensive understanding and awareness of the Divine Wind Bright Mirror Blade and the Vengeance Blade.

‘Return Light’ and ‘Void Hall Mirror’ had become his instinct, forming muscle memory.

He could unleash their wonders with a mere lift of his hand, executing them with the greatest speed. To put it in modern terms, he used them with an extra ‘6’.

Moreover, their final exchanges had approached the nature of a sparring session, an exchange of ideas, a discussion.

This allowed Chu Xisheng to learn many of Blood Revenge Blade Lord’s thoughts about the Vengeance Blade.

Besides, just before the combat ended, Chu heard something from the young Blood Revenge Blade Lord.

—If what the Blood Revenge Blade Lord said is true, then it’s an unexpected surprise.

“It’s a long story,”

Chu Xisheng did not elaborate further.

Simply because he noticed there were others around him.

If Chu Xisheng were to disclose the matter of the ‘Blood Revenge Blade Lord,’ others could immediately deduce his current combat strength, revealing a portion of his foundation.

He looked around, observing they were in another immense pyramid. Structurally identical to the second floor’s pyramid, surrounded by a hundred floating altars.

The difference here was that the sky had changed.

The second floor’s sky was a dull blood hue with a faint red halo, whereas Chu Xisheng was now under a true blood-red canopy.

The crimson glow painted everyone’s faces with a bloody sheen.

The terrain was also different.

Most of the second floor comprised plains and hills with wide-open views.

However, Chu Xisheng’s view was obstructed here, with only towering mountain ranges in all directions. They stretched hundreds of feet high, reaching for the sky, seemingly merging with it.

If one looked closely, they would see these mountain ranges subtly undulating, the reddish soil apparently containing blood veins and sinews.

Not a blade of grass grew here; the land around was barren, utterly devoid of life.

Chu Xisheng felt this third layer of the Secret Realm was as if he were situated within someone else’s flesh and viscera.

Chu Xisheng’s brow furrowed as he looked at the Xuee couple in the crowd, “Who hurt you?”

The ‘Wind and Thunder Poles’ Wang Xizhu and Xue Tingyou couple were both injured, and severely so.

Their arms and abdomens bore bloodstains, wounds that had been bandaged but were still oozing blood.

A Fifth-grade Martial Cultivator’s life force was exceedingly strong; unless they suffered severe injuries like losing limbs, they would recover quickly.

Only superior Martial Intent could prevent their wounds from healing, causing continuous bleeding.

Chu Xisheng noticed it wasn’t just the couple who was injured; around eight others, including those from the Wind and Thunder Ancient Sword and Fierce Sword Guo Nu, bore various injuries.

Even Zhou Liangchen was no exception.

Only Leng Chanra remained unscathed from top to bottom.

He soon realized what had happened, his expression darkening, his eyes filled with Li Ze: “Was it that scum Jian Shifei and the others?”

“Exactly those scum!”

Guo Nu immediately snorted angrily, cursing out loud, “Seeing that you were not out for a few hours, those dogs became audacious and joined forces against us. These people, having fused with the Ancient God’s Power, looked as hideous as ghosts, yet their combat strength increased significantly from before.

We, even when in formation, were no match for them. If Chu Ming and her two Daoists hadn’t escaped and drawn those people away, all of us would have been obliterated. And to think I previously mocked them as inept and desperate for resorting to refining the Ancient God’s Relic; now we’ve been taught a lesson by them.”

Upon hearing this, several present wore faces of shame, their eyes filled with frustration, anger, and reluctance.

It was indeed a humiliating spectacle.

In Chu Xisheng’s absence, they were like helpless waste, bullied by others.

If they had known, they would have refined some too.

Chu Xisheng didn’t seem to feel anything.

Jian Shifei and those others were all within the top ten of the Northern Qingyun List, at the very least at the Super Genius level.

Not only were Ancient Sword, Guo Nu, and the others at a numerical disadvantage, but they also didn’t possess the power of an Ancient God, so of course, they couldn’t possibly be their match.

It turns out that Chu Xisheng and Chu Ming have implicated them, otherwise these sect elites wouldn’t have faced such an awkward situation.

In short, the situation had exceeded the scope of their abilities.

Chu Xisheng glanced at everyone present and then frowned, “Where are the others?”

Apart from Wang Xizhu, the couple Xuee Tingyou, Zhoou Liangchen, Ancient Sword, Guo Nu, and ‘Killing Jian’ Qin Ren from the Beitian Sect, there were only two Inner Sect senior brothers named ‘Sky Flipping Sword’ Lei Bin and ‘Water Breaking Sword’ Cao Feng, and a junior sister from the Outer Disciples named Xiao Yi.

Chu Xisheng wasn’t very familiar with the latter three, but the Xuee couple, who had extensive connections in the sect, had introduced them to him.

Both Lei Bin and Cao Feng were on the You State’s Qingyun List top ten three years ago, Super Genius level, with impressive combat abilities.

The Xiao Yi, the junior sister, was a rising star of the sect.

She hadn’t made it onto the Qingyun List, but she reached the Fifth Grade at the age of twenty-two, which was much faster than Ye Zhiqiu’s cultivation speed. Her combat abilities could surpass those of a tier higher, placing her at the upper echelons of the Fifth Grade.

Wang Xizhu mentioned that this girl’s Bloodline Talent was awakening rapidly, and in the future, she might become a Heaven Pillar who excels later in life. Therefore, the sect held her in high regard.

Besides these eight people, the rest were nowhere to be seen.

Then there were Bai Xiaozhao and Little Xuanwu.

Chu Xisheng noticed that Little Xuanwu was also there.

That little creature was only five months old. Who could it possibly defeat in combat?

He speculated whether Zhu Guangyin might have gone easy on his own grandson.

In theory, most of Little Xuanwu’s bloodline originated from Zhu Guangyin, indeed making it His grandchild.

“They’re all right, their lives are not in danger,” Wang Xizhu said with a wry smile. “Some failed the challenge and didn’t enter, and a few others have left the Secret Realm. Thankfully, if Chu Ming hadn’t run fast, we would all have had to exit.”

In the third layer of the Secret Realm, they could leave the Secret Realm at any time, simply by making a request to the Secret Realm Master with their thoughts.

Wang Xizhu, however, grumbled to himself that Chu Ming ran too slowly, likely using them as meat shields.

That’s how people are. Once they hold a poor impression of someone, becoming wary and repulsed, they will interpret each of the person’s actions with malicious intent.

Chu Xisheng’s expression eased, thinking that as long as no one died, it was fine.

He then suddenly felt a sensation and turned his head, focusing his gaze towards the peak of a mountain thirty-seven miles away.

There stood a figure in black robes, with dark skin and a keratinous layer covering the face, as ugly as a ghost.

That was none other than Wisdom Demon Mountain, who had provoked him twelve hours ago.

As Chu Xisheng’s gaze met with that of Wisdom Demon Mountain, who was gazing at the pyramid’s summit far away, Wisdom Demon Mountain unhesitatingly leaped off the mountain.

Behind him emerged a pair of thunderous wings, propelling him away in a flash of lightning.

At that moment, Wisdom Demon Mountain’s eyes reflected deep contemplation.

They had thought that Chu Xisheng was eliminated from the Time Secret Realm due to a failed challenge, hence, the delay in emerging from the space-time tunnel.

Unexpectedly, twelve hours later, this guy reentered.

Wisdom Demon Mountain was not dismayed but delighted.

He assumed that Chu Xisheng must have encountered a Fifth Grade Upper Tier Candle Dragon in the space-time tunnel.

For Chu Xisheng to overcome a three-realm gap and defeat this Divine Beast subspecies, with might on par with the Human Clan Super Genius, was truly impressive.

But, did this also imply that this was Chu Xisheng’s maximum strength?

Wisdom Demon Mountain believed that he had completely seen through Chu Xisheng’s foundation.

If they managed to eliminate Chu Ming, their twenty-odd Super Geniuses and Heavenly Prides could join forces, using the right tactics, they would certainly be able to kill Chu Xisheng!

The deaths of his sect mates would not be in vain!
