I Outworked the Entire Cultivation World

Chapter 717: Chapter 664: Sinking into the Sea

Once the important matters were discussed, Xuu Shouzhong sent someone to take Jiang Yuebai to stay at the foot of Woxue Peak. Whenever cultivators from outside visit the Guiyuan Sword Sect, they temporarily reside beneath the Main Peak.

In a sword cultivator’s sect, other areas possess certain dangers, making them unsuitable for outsiders to enter.

Among the sword cultivators in the sect, conflicts can easily lead to them drawing their swords for a spar. If a guest were to be accidentally injured, it would be quite unfortunate.

The Guiyuan Sword Sect also has a resident Early-Stage Divinity Transformation Sword Master, whom Jiang Yuebai wished to visit, but Xuu Shouzhong politely declined.

Because that Sword Master usually lives in seclusion and only appears if the Guiyuan Sword Sect faces a life-and-death situation, also refusing all visits.

When Jiang Yuebai followed the servant disciple to the guest courtyard, she suddenly sensed some spying presence.

Jiang Yuebai paused, looking in one particular direction.

Upon realizing he was discovered, a person stumbled out from behind the snow pine in shock, revealing himself to be Luh Changfeng, whom Jiang Yuebai had met in the Land of Chaos right after returning to the Earth Spiritual Realm.

”Is there something you need?”

Luh Changfeng replied with an awkward smile, ”Well, the senior brothers and sisters in the sect all greatly admire True Monarch Wangshu, and would like to invite True Monarch Wangshu to go out to sea for... a spar!”

The westernmost part of the Guiyuan Sword Sect borders the North Sea, where the sect’s Nascent Soul Stage sword cultivators would always go to spar at sea to avoid causing significant damage to the sect or triggering an avalanche across the region.

To be honest, Jiang Yuebai also felt a bit eager, but her master had constantly reminded her before leaving to behave herself.

After all, if she were to knock all the Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the Guiyuan Sword Sect to the ground, it would indeed be... a bit too much.

However, she couldn’t compromise her own dignity either.

Jiang Yuebai looked around and smiled, ”If you want to invite me for a spar, then come to the courtyard and ask.”

With that, Jiang Yuebai stepped into the courtyard, casually waving her hand to send out an almost imperceptible ripple from the courtyard gate, hidden amidst the wind and snow.

A man and a woman, both relatively senior Nascent Soul Stage sword cultivators from the Guiyuan Sword Sect, appeared from different directions.

Seeing the two of them eager to try, Luh Changfeng quickly discouraged them, ”Forget it, she’s truly strong, I witnessed it myself. The two of you together might not even be able to take her on.”

Fu Jiutong, at the Mid-Stage Nascent Soul, chuckled disdainfully, ”Junior Brother Luh, are you trying to discourage me, or provoke me? I really want to see if this renowned True Monarch Wangshu is as formidable as the rumors claim!”

Luh Changfeng reached out but failed to pull back Fu Jiutong, who then walked towards the courtyard gate watched by Tiann Xiaoyu.

Fu Jiutong paused in front of the courtyard gate, sensing something was off but not particularly obvious, he drew his sword and cautiously took a step forward, and the next moment, he suddenly disappeared beyond the gate.

Tiann Xiaoyu, with her arms crossed, hurriedly released them and rushed to the gate to check, finding that Fu Jiutong had indeed vanished without a trace.

Luh Changfeng held his forehead, ”Forget it, senior sister, why make yourself miserable? Is it really that hard to acknowledge others’ strength?”

Tiann Xiaoyu drew her sword and slashed, startling Luh Changfeng.

”Senior sister! You can’t use blades and swords within Woxue Peak!”

However, the sword aura Tiann Xiaoyu unleashed vanished without a trace beyond the courtyard gate, like a stone sinking into the sea.

”Is there trickery on the gate?”

Tiann Xiaoyu discerned something and attempted to enter through the side wall.

Then Luh Changfeng watched as Tiann Xiaoyu too disappeared behind the wall without a trace.

Meanwhile, in the western sea region.

In an instant, Tiann Xiaoyu appeared deep under the sea, gasping in astonishment and urgently swimming upwards, breaking through the surface.

Coming out she found herself eye-to-eye with the drenched Fu Jiutong, creating an awkward atmosphere.

Only then did they realize it was some kind of space teleportation great array!

Attempting to invite someone for a spar, they couldn’t even step into the courtyard, what a disgrace!

Tiann Xiaoyu and Fu Jiutong tacitly agreed, refraining from criticizing each other, shaking off the seawater, and returning to the sect one after another.

But soon, both found themselves appearing in this sea region again, once more submerged, swimming up on their own.

Both gritted their teeth and sought their senior brother for help, but shortly afterward...

Three people submerged into the sea!

Outside the guest courtyard, the Nascent Soul Stage sword cultivators of the Guiyuan Sword Sect tirelessly persisted, braving hardships and obstacles, displaying the spirit of a sword cultivator who never easily admits defeat, attempting to break through the array time after time, only to end up submerged in the sea over and over.

Jiang Yuebai quietly stayed in the courtyard, leaving a Cloud Lark Puppet on the wall in case anyone sought her for important matters, so they wouldn’t find themselves in the sea as well.

Ignoring the chaos outside, she focused on refining a Divine Concealment Talisman, failing the first time and losing a Hidden Gu, requiring her to carefully summarize her experience and strive for success in the remaining two attempts.

By evening, Yun Shang was led to the guest courtyard by a servant disciple, with four prepared sword cultivators waiting like ravenous wolves, just as Yun Shang stepped into the courtyard, sword lights of various colors avoided her and shot swiftly into the yard.

The courtyard walls collapsed and exploded with earth and stones flying, while Yun Shang stood like a startled little rabbit in the middle, almost crying out.

At that moment, a Crane Cry sounded from the courtyard, as numerous white feathers shot like electric meteors, accurately striking each sword light.

In an instant, the overwhelming sword light shattered like paper ash when hit by feathers, the feathers advancing boldly, reaching the four of them in no time.

From afar, Luh Changfeng watched as the four senior brothers and sisters summoned lifebound swords intending to resist, and sighed deeply.

Was it necessary...?

Clang!

Four simultaneous sword cries echoed, and the four felt a tremor in their dantians, spitting blood as they realized their lifebound swords had cracked, and watched in shock as the light feathers effortlessly knocked aside their swords, grazing their cheeks and piercing through the snowy pine forest behind them.

Boom!

The earth shook as all four swords embedded themselves into the mountain wall.

The four were terrified as they looked up, seeing the peak of Woxue Peak starting to collapse under the snow’s vibrational impact.

”Outrageous! Using blades and swords recklessly on Woxue Peak, do you wish to be exiled to the Asura Domain for guard duty?!”

An angry shout echoed from the direction of the rear mountain, filled with powerful Divinity Transformation Stage pressure.

Jiang Yuebai took one step into the air, bowing in the direction of the rear mountain.

”Sword Master, please forgive my ignorance of Woxue Peak’s rules, my hands got itchy, I’ll handle the aftermath promptly.”

Without waiting for the array on Woxue Peak to activate, Jiang Yuebai effortlessly rose into the air, stationing herself beneath countless layers of snow and waving her hand with the Lotus Platform.

In a flash, the wind shifted direction, spinning rapidly around Jiang Yuebai to form a giant vortex, swallowing all the collapsing snow.

The snow on Woxue Peak, frozen spiritual energy accumulated over many years, as this mass was consumed, Jiang Yuebai felt instantly invigorated, her whole being refreshed.

Powerful!

Outside the great hall of Woxue Peak, Sect Master Xuu Shouzhong watched this scene, chuckling and shaking his head.

”The True Monarch Wangshu from the Heavenly Interence Sect is truly an extraordinary person!”

At the foot of the mountain, Luh Changfeng approached the four senior brothers and sisters with arms crossed, speaking sincerely.

”See? She gained both face and benefits, in terms of strength you’re no match for her, in terms of cunning you’re even less so. How about being a little more sensible, wouldn’t that be better?”

The four had nothing to say, having to return in defeat with their cracked lifebound swords, licking their wounds.

Jiang Yuebai, having consumed all the snow, returned to the courtyard entrance, immediately concerned about Yun Shang, who looked pale.

”How are you feeling? Would you like to come in and take a rest?”

If not for these ruffians frightening her dear Yun Shang, she really would have restrained herself from taking action; as expected, sword cultivators are all lunatics!

Yun Shang took a breath, shook her head, and entered the house with Jiang Yuebai to rest.

Jiang Yuebai’s single display of prowess made her famous, and over the following days, no one dared disturb her again.

Until the fifth day, when Zhuo Qingfeng finally returned to the sect.
