Chapter 407: Chapter 405: Wen Ling (4 more!)

This woman was named Wen Ling, a pinnacle disciple within the Divine Transformation Pavilion, and after the upcoming Sect competition, the Divine Transformation Pavilion would arrange for her to undergo her first Divinity Transformation.

Just a moment ago, she clearly saw the pitch-black sword light, spanning ten thousand meters, brush past right before her own eyes.

It brushed past not only her but also Wang Lie and the others!

But after the sword light brushed past them, the bodies of Wang Lie and the others had completely burst into blood mist, while she remained alive!

“I’m not dead…”

Wen Ling reached out her hand and touched her body, only to find it entirely soaked through; she was drenched in cold sweat.

“Why are they all dead, and I’m not…” Wen Ling murmured to herself, unable to believe it.

“I once promised your Divine Master that I would not lay a hand on anyone from the Divine Transformation Pavilion,”

Just then, a flat voice emerged from the white figure within the cave mansion.

Wen Ling was startled for a moment before she finally comprehended and deeply bowed toward the white figure, saying, “Thank you, Senior, for sparing my life.”

At this moment, she remembered a phrase the Divine Master had said when he sent the disciples of the Divine Transformation Pavilion—”There is a Senior in seclusion here; try to keep your noise to a minimum.”

Previously, she hadn’t quite understood the Divine Master’s words, but now she was finally awake to their meaning.

“No wonder even the Divine Master asked us to address him as Senior…” Wen Ling’s breathing hastened as she silently realized in her heart.

She started to regret her previous arrogance.

Although the Divine Master had said so, they had never taken his words seriously, always relying on the fact that they were from the Divine Transformation Pavilion, from a Super Sect, hence looking down on everyone else.

They always felt that even if the sky were to fall, the Divine Transformation Pavilion would support it; the Divine Master and the others would hold it up!

At this very moment, she finally understood the saying, “There are heavens beyond this heaven, people beyond this person!”

“But your memory, I cannot leave intact.”

The figure in white spoke again, sweeping a hand, and Wen Ling’s pupils immediately became vacant.

It was only a flash, as if nothing had happened, yet the look of terror and gratitude that had been on Wen Ling’s face had vanished without a trace.

The scene she had just witnessed was completely forgotten, including the white figure’s appearance and the ten thousand meter long sword light—all disappeared without a trace.

Su Han had forcibly erased her memory.

Wen Ling’s figure seemed to be pushed away by a gentle force.

Although her recent memories were gone, the astonishing sword light ten thousand meters in length hadn’t disappeared.

Wen Ling saw that astonishing sword light once more, but she could never again remember what had just happened.

“People from the Divine Transformation Pavilion, all of you get out!”

A resounding shout echoed from within the cave mansion.

After Wen Ling was pushed out, the cave entrance was once again covered by a Thunder Curtain.

Apart from Wang Lie and the others who were already dead, and Wen Ling, whose memory had been erased, no one knew what exactly lay inside the cave.

“It’s the Artifact Spirit! That must definitely be the voice of an Artifact Spirit!”

“There really is a treasure!”

“This object has already undergone Divinity Transformation, and it can even speak in human tongue. Its grade is definitely not low-grade Holy Spirit Level, at the very least mid-grade, or even high-grade!!!”

The disciples of the other Nine Sects had witnessed the scene where Wang Lie and the others were instantly killed.

There was a moment of horror in their hearts, but in the next moment, that horror completely vanished, overtaken by greed.

In their eyes, this Supreme Treasure must surely be a long knife, and moreover, one that had already undergone a transformation!

From the hovering sword light in the void, which was ten thousand meters long and had yet to fall, this was evident!

Moreover, this knife possessed an Artifact Spirit, whose intelligence compared to that of humans, fully having transformed. Such a grade was at least mid-grade Holy Spirit Level!

To them, a mid-grade Holy Spirit Level Supreme Treasure that also possessed such immense attack power was an unimaginably precious item!

The disciples from the Divine Transformation Pavilion similarly showed greed on their faces, their eyes sparkling with lustre.

They had no intention of leaving, but Wen Ling was overrun with an indescribable sense of alarm in her heart—it was as if, in that brief moment, something extremely frightening had happened to her.

She couldn’t recall what exactly had occurred, but she remembered standing outside that cave mansion together with Wang Lie and the others.

By now, the figures of Wang Lie and the other eight had completely vanished, leaving only her alive.

She had a feeling that if she stayed here any longer, she would die, and the disciples of Divine Transformation Pavilion would die too!

“People of the Divine Transformation Pavilion, heed my command—retreat at once!” Wen Ling scoffed coldly.

As her words fell, her voice was shrill, extremely grating on the ears.

The disciples of the Divine Transformation Pavilion all had a moment of clarity, their faces showing a significant reduction in greed.

“Senior Sister Wen, this is at least a mid-grade Holy Spirit-level supreme treasure!!!”

“Senior Sister Wen, everyone from the Nine Great Super Sects is here, what’s there to fear? If we can obtain this item, we will be the talk of the ages!”

“Senior Sister Wen, we can’t leave at this moment. This opportunity is rare, perhaps once in a lifetime!”

Many disciples of the Divine Transformation Pavilion spoke up, trying to persuade Wen Ling.

Everyone believed that the voice they had just heard was definitely that of an artifact spirit, and not someone else.

Because before the great sect competition, the Top Ten Super Sects had already spread the news that the upcoming competition would take place in Mountain of the Divine Medicine. Otherwise, there wouldn’t have been so many loose cultivators who knew about it and came to watch.

And because of this, all the disciples believed that no one besides disciples from the Top Ten Super Sects would appear in Mountain of the Divine Medicine over this half-year.

And with the greed in their hearts at that moment, even if someone did appear, they would still believe it to be a transformation of an artifact spirit!

“Senior Sister Wen, if you wish to leave, we won’t stop you. But this item is a treasure that causes a sensation even within the Divine Transformation Pavilion and is extremely rare.”

A young man suddenly stood out, his cultivation base at the early stage of Dragon Pill Realm, as he clasped his fists towards Wen Ling, “Such an opportunity is rare in a lifetime, we must acquire this item, and one day…”

“Boom!”

Before he could finish speaking, a palm suddenly appeared behind the young man.

The young man clearly didn’t expect that someone would attack him while he stood among the crowd of Divine Transformation Pavilion, let alone expect that the attacker…would be Wen Ling!

Under that palm strike, the young man’s body instantly exploded into flesh and blood, his unfinished words were forever lost.

“If there are any other disciples of the Divine Transformation Pavilion who still hesitate, your fate will be the same as his!” Wen Ling glanced at the cave mansion with some urgency, her voice chillingly cold.

The death of the young man sobered up everyone from the Divine Transformation Pavilion completely.

Of the thirty thousand people present, Wen Ling’s status was the highest, and to become a disciple of a Super Sect, none were fools.

They knew that Wen Ling’s insistence on making them leave, even at the cost of killing one person, must have had a reason behind it.

The supreme treasure was right before their eyes, and Wen Ling would definitely want it, so why was she still so adamant about leaving?

“Let’s go!” Wen Ling called out again.

The people of the Divine Transformation Pavilion finally stopped hesitating. Despite feeling some regret, they ultimately did not want to be the second person to die a wrongful death.

The thirty thousand disciples of the Divine Transformation Pavilion now followed Wen Ling and left toward the distance.

As Wen Ling was leaving, she bowed deeply toward the cave mansion with a clasped fist salute.

She didn’t know what was inside the cave mansion and had forgotten what had just happened, but she felt that her being alive was definitely because the entity inside the cave mansion had spared her!

Even if that entity was truly an artifact spirit, such an act of sparing her life was worthy of her bow!

…

ps: Yeah, there will at least be four chapters released every day from now on!

The update time starts from midnight, approximately every five minutes for a new chapter.

If there is a surge of releases, or some reason I can’t release as many chapters, South Mountain will let you know in advance.

However, that likely won’t happen during this period; there might even be a surge, offering everyone four chapters of eight thousand words a day.

Four chapters are completed for today, that’s all~
