My Master Knows It All

672: Chapter 211_5 672: Chapter 211_5 “Insult my master, insult my sect, die!”

The words Qiao Jingyao spat out were as if a frosty wind was blowing across millennium-old frost, resonating in the air.

As her voice fell, she raised her hand and pointed forward.

Instantly, within the void, the plum blossom phantom suddenly exploded, with petals shooting in all directions.

Each petal contained boundless might, and it seemed that each held infinite variations.

Once, she had used this divine skill at the Immortal Combat Assembly when facing Cao Zhen, only for it to be easily neutralized.

Now, she had executed it again, the same divine skill, yet its power had increased immeasurably compared to before.

Although the divine skill was the same, the cultivation technique she practiced was different.

After her battle with Cao Zhen that day, the Grand Preceptor had given her not only a divine weapon but also imparted a cultivation technique.

The Green Tree Sect’s Real Solution from the Great Jin Dynasty, suitable only for those with the Immortal Wood Body—and she possessed precisely that body!

While the Green Tree Sect was an extremely powerful Immortal Sect within the Great Jin Dynasty, it was comparable to the ten major sects of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty!

Her cultivation technique had changed, and it was the most suitable technique for her.

Rooted in the Real Solution of Dark Wood, the divine skill she deployed had greater might!

Under the assault of the cold breath, the demonic cultivator who had just spoken felt a chilling cold and, filled with panic, hastily channeled his mana.

Behind him, his six Golden Cores rotated wildly as streams of mana flowed into his body.

In the next moment, he swung both his hands forward.

Suddenly, a scorching flame burst forth.

This flame was neither the common red nor yellow, but a jet-black flame!

The flame was dense with Demonic Qi, as if it sprang forth from the fiery pits of hell.

The jet-black flame was exceptionally hot; layers of frost on the ground melted instantaneously, yet before the flame could melt all the frost—

A breath, ancient and mysterious, surged forth.

Qiao Jingyao wielded her whip,

Mana converged, withered trunks forming a massive net constructed of branches.

The net blotted out the sky, sweeping over toward the opponent, seemingly intent on engulfing him completely.

The attacked demonic cultivator, in sheer terror, released all of his combat strength.

Bands of black flame converged, forming a fiery wall around him as if to block the colossal tree net descending upon him.

Though flames should naturally restrain wood, the black flames falling below were utterly unable to incinerate the seemingly withered giant tree.

Just as the net of trees was about to encompass him entirely, suddenly, a sword light flashed beside him.

Among the group of demonic cultivators, the one with the most profound cultivation base, the eighth-layer Golden Core, made his move.

A sword light fell, and though it came from a jet-black longsword, the swing released a silver sword beam.

The air around was cleaved in an instant by the sword beam, as if the void itself were split in two.

This one sword carried peerless sharpness, suggesting that all things in the world would be bifurcated beneath it.

In the void, the net cast by Qiao Jingyao’s divine skill was severed in twain by the sword, turning into green leaves that fell to the ground.

“Brother Shaoze!”

“Brother Shaoze has made his move!”

“A single sword has broken through the opponent’s attack!”

“It still comes down to Brother Shaoze.”

The surrounding demonic cultivators cheered at the sight of Brother Shaoze breaking through the divine skill with one sword.

The thin-faced man gave Brother Shaoze a clasped hand salute: “Thank you for your assistance, brother.”

“No need for that,” replied Brother Shaoze with an appearance that seemed fairly ordinary, perhaps with a hint of evil energy.

Compared to his disciple brother, he instantly appeared far more dashing.

After breaking Qiao Jingyao’s attack with one sword, he did not pursue further but looked at her with a smile, “Golden Core sixth layer, all Golden Cores exhibiting marvels.

You are indeed worthy of the title genius.

Just now, I heard you call him your master, and your sect leader, right?

I’ve never heard of this Celestial Plum Sect before.

Your master and sect leader don’t even have one marvelous Golden Core between them, and you know well what that means for their cultivation base.

You will only be buried in such a sect.

Now, I give you a chance to choose.”

Brother Shaoze continued, glancing at the disciples that had arrived, those at Core Formation Stage and Immortal Bridge Period, a smile of charity playing on his lips: “I give you an opportunity to save your master, your brothers, sisters, and fellow disciples.

Do you know where I come from?

We are from the Sun and Moon Demon Sect!

A prime force amongst the world!

I can report to the sect and let you become my Dao companion.

Your entire sect would join our Sun and Moon Demon Sect, thus keeping all of your sect members safe.

And you, as my Dao companion and a disciple of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect, will gain access to our sect’s inherited cultivation techniques and divine skills.

In time, you too can become stronger!

This is your best choice.

Of course, you can also refuse, but the consequence of your refusal will be that after today, the Celestial Plum Sect will cease to exist in this world, and everyone behind you, including yourself, will be slaughtered!”

He was attempting to enlist her.

Although he undoubtedly stood as the strongest among these disciples, and others called him a genius,
