Imperial Cultivation

Chapter 1088: Chapter 1084: All Arrive

Does the arrival of Guanghan Palace experts mean that the experts from Tiansword Peak of Qinglian Sea have encountered big trouble?

Li Hongzhao and Dong Muyu’s faces both changed.

They also thought of this point.

Li Hongzhao lowered her voice: ”Senior Sister Dong, are these experts from Guanghan Palace all venerable figures?”

Dong Muyu stared at the thirteen experts floating before the light curtain, slowly nodding: ”They should be venerable figures.”

”Why are they here, is it to support our Tiansword Peak?”

”...Maybe it’s a coincidence passing by, visiting on the way?” Dong Muyu said.

Li Hongzhao said: ”That’s possible, ...senior sister, among the Four Great Sects, which sect is closest to us?”

”Guanghan Palace.”

”And then?”

”Besides Guanghan Palace, Guiyang Sword Sect and Fuyun Sect are about the same.”

Li Hongzhao said: ”Then let’s see if they’ll come again?”

”Let’s wait and see.” Dong Muyu’s expression was serious.

She faintly felt an ominous premonition.

Could it be that something has really happened over at Qinglian Sea?

The thirteen elegant women hovered before the light curtain as if invisible hands in the void supported them.

Li Hongzhao admired: ”Such excellent Qinggong.”

Walking across the void is not difficult, but this kind of levitation in one place is extremely tough.

This is not something ordinary Qinggong can achieve; she felt that even venerable figures might not necessarily do it.

Chu Zhiyuan gently nodded: ”Indeed, it’s excellent Qinggong; the Guanghan Palace’s cultivation technique is unique, right?”

”The Miao Yu Feitian Step of Guanghan Palace is a masterpiece; others can’t do it.” Dong Muyu said, ”The Sect Leader will let them in.”

A gap suddenly appeared in the light curtain, only large enough for one person to pass through.

The thirteen women immediately in their white dresses stepped through the light curtain one by one.

A middle-aged woman floated out from the crowd in the White Jade Square, gracefully welcoming the thirteen women.

She wore an apricot yellow silk robe, her figure graceful, posture elegant, but her appearance was average, not conspicuous among the crowd.

She welcomed them to the edge of the cliff, folded her fists, and smiled: ”Senior Sister Qi, Junior Sister Hu, Junior Sister Ning, you are here.”

Dong Muyu softly said: ”That is Zhao Simeng from Cloud Water Hall, Senior Sister Zhao, responsible for daily welcoming and sending off, having excellent relations with various sects and factions, very popular, everyone likes her.”

The leading woman was beautiful but had a stern demeanor, as if covered with a layer of frost.

”Junior Sister Zhao,” she folded her fists lightly and said, ”Where is Master Lu?”

”Senior Sister Qi, come with me.” Zhao Simeng turned sideways to invite, nodded and smiled to the women behind her: ”Thank you all senior and junior sisters for your hard work.”

Qi Qingmei lightly said: ”Between us, saying this is being polite!”

A beautiful girl beside her smiled and said: ”Senior Sister Zhao, we heard the news, hurried overnight, seems we arrived in time.”

”Junior Sister Hu, thank you for your hard work. It’s fortunate you came; previously, several waves of Black Crow Demons arrived, now replaced by Heaven-Swallowing Lion Demon, even more challenging.”

She invited the thirteen women to head toward the hall.

The disciples of Tiansword Peak watched them closely, their expressions calm, their demeanor impressive, graceful as they walked.

Dong Muyu snorted.

Li Hongzhao looked at her in confusion.

Dong Muyu scoffed: ”The souls of the senior brothers are all taken away!”

Li Hongzhao pursed her lips in a laugh, gently nodding.

These disciples of Guanghan Palace each had remarkable charm, far beyond ordinary women.

Even if one’s appearance matched theirs, standing with them would feel dim.

They shone brightly, the source of their alluring presence was their extraordinary temperament.

Appearance, demeanor, and expression combined to create a unique aura, distinct from ordinary people.

Giving a strong sense of celestial fairies descended to the earth.

Li Hongzhao turned to look at Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan was staring into the distance, his gaze not toward those impressive disciples of Guanghan Palace.

She couldn’t help but ask: ”What is it?”

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: ”Coming again!...This time it’s different.”

Li Hongzhao frowned slightly: ”Looks like there’s really something wrong over there.”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

Just at this moment, the women who were about to step onto the White Jade Steps stopped.

They stood under the steps, looking to the east.

At this time, the sun leapt out from the horizon, sending myriad rays and thousands of auspicious clouds.

In the midst of the rosy glow, a dark shadow floated from afar, instantly reaching nearby.

It turned out to be a group of dwarves, human body, rat face.

Small eyes shot forth bright beams, a chilling and eerie light.

Thin and long tails swung in the air, resembling dragging whips.

Chu Zhiyuan scanned and confirmed there were sixty-six.

Dong Muyu uttered: ”Red Whip Rat Demon!”

She twisted her head and said: ”Careful of their tails, immensely powerful.”

From Chu Zhiyuan’s sleeves, a white light flew out, passing through the light curtain, shooting toward one of the Rat Demons.

”Clap!”

A crisp sound in the air, bright and clear, spread far and wide.

The tail of the Rat Demon accurately struck the flying knife, knocking it away.

Chu Zhiyuan’s eyebrow rose.

These evil demons indeed shouldn’t be underestimated.

Just because it was easy to destroy the Black Crow Demons doesn’t mean other evil demons are equally easy to deal with.

The Rat Demon’s tail is formidable, the power on the Glazed Glass Blade robust, yet it was easily knocked away.

The exquisite flying knife spun three meters out, made a turn in midair, drawing a peculiar arc, heading again towards the first Rat Demon.

The Rat Demon’s tail quivered.

Next moment, the air rang with another crisp and bright sound.

The flying knife flashed and vanished from its original position.

The mouse demon’s tail swiped through empty air and returned to its place, as if it had never moved.

The flying knife drew near.

”Smack!”

Another sharp sound, the mouse demon’s tail swiped again but still hit nothing.

The flying knife had already pierced it.

In that instant, golden light burst forth.

”Squeak—!”

A shrill cry rang out as the mouse demon seemed to be shocked by the golden light.

Golden light burst forth once more.

”Squeak—!”

The shrill cry sounded again, and the mouse demon instantly turned into a ball of golden light, as if it were set ablaze.

In the blink of an eye, the golden light dissipated, and the mouse demon vanished.

The flying knife transformed into a streak of golden light shooting toward another mouse demon.

The mouse demon’s tail whipped into a shadow.

But the flying knife lightly passed through the tail and hit the mouse demon.

This was the Path of Illusion and Reality.

The evil demons were enhancing, and his flying knife technique was also improving.

Golden light burst forth.

This caused the mouse demon to once again turn into a ball of golden light, then vanished into the void.

As the flying knife shot at other mouse demons, they all dodged swiftly.

Chu Zhiyuan released several flying knives from his sleeve, a total of nine, aiming at the remaining Red Whip Rat Demons.

The thirteen Guanghan Palace maidens stopped at the steps below, their bright eyes glancing toward Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan focused his gaze into the distance, maneuvering ten flying knives to chase the Red Whip Rat Demons.

The Red Whip Rat Demons fled far, retreating beyond a hundred meters.

The ten flying knives hovered in mid-air, their tips aimed at them, as if watching like a tiger.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and said, ”These demons are quite cunning.”

They were taking advantage of the fact that he couldn’t go out, the flying knives couldn’t fly too far.

Yet they didn’t dare come near.

Dong Muyu laughed and said, ”No wonder Junior Brother Chu, good sword technique!”

Everyone expressed admiration.

Zhao Simeng laughed and said, ”Senior Sister Qi, let’s go see the Sect Leader.”

Qi Qingmei took a deep look at Chu Zhiyuan, then turned to ascend the White Jade Steps.

The other twelve maidens stopped at the steps below.

Chu Zhiyuan’s eyes were constantly fixed on those Red Whip Rat Demons.

These mouse demons retreated further, finally stopping a hundred meters away from the flying knives, glaring fiercely at Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan closed his eyes.

An elderly voice gently sounded: ”Heavenly Sword Peak is finished, those intruders at Qinglian Sea have been annihilated!”

The voice came from the leading mouse demon.

Its small eyes shot out a cold light, the sound contrary to its appearance.

It sounded like the voice of a rugged, robust man.

Chu Zhiyuan sneered coldly.

Dong Muyu scoffed, ”Nonsense, utterly ridiculous!”

The other disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect shook their heads.

”What a pack of lies!”

”Ridiculously amusing!”

...

Chu Zhiyuan suddenly stepped forward, arriving at the cliff edge.

The ten flying knives vanished instantly, transforming into streaks of golden light shooting at the speaking Red Whip Rat Demon.

The Red Whip Rat Demon flickered several times in mid-air, casting ten silhouettes as it retreated.

The flying knives halted abruptly in mid-air, suddenly stopping.

As if taunting and teasing it.

The Red Whip Rat Demon also stopped, its eyes shooting out cold light, glaring fiercely at Chu Zhiyuan, grinding its teeth as if wanting to devour him.

Chu Zhiyuan looked at him coldly: ”If you have the guts, come forward, truly timid mouse.”

”You brat, you deserve to die!”

The Red Whip Rat Demon’s voice suddenly became sharp, piercingly high-pitched.

The light curtain flickered several times.

The sharp sound was blocked somewhat, losing its power when it reached Chu Zhiyuan’s ears.

Chu Zhiyuan laughed heartily: ”Come on!”

However, the Red Whip Rat Demon didn’t fall for it, just glaring at him resolutely, biting its teeth as if chewing something, seemingly gnawing on his bones.

Chu Zhiyuan was completely indifferent, shaking his head repeatedly: ”You mice only dare to watch from the sidelines, but don’t dare to come close.”

The disciples of Heavenly Sword Peak felt immensely satisfied, laughing heartily.

”Indeed, their courage is too small.”

”Truly a mouse demon.”

”Come on, dare to come up and try!”

”So aggressive, yet so ridiculous!”

”Eh?”

”Those are the brothers from Guiyang Sword Sect?”

”And the brothers from Fuyun Sect.”

”They’ve all come?”

Chu Zhiyuan’s expression turned slightly grim.
