Peerless Sword Technique System - C45
The gigantic flying shuttle was called Cloud-Piercing Shuttle, and the space inside was even larger than the outside. It was big enough to accommodate several hundred people.
However, there were only fourteen people standing in this huge space, making it seem extremely empty.
This couldn’t be blamed on Ye Zhifa. After all, he was still young and didn’t have many interactions with others, and since Du Lin himself liked to travel alone, it was understandable that he didn’t have a close relationship with the other peaks.
Only, out of the other six Successor Disciples, Ye Zhifa only noticed one.
The man was in his early twenties. He was tall, slender and handsome. He had tied up his hair with a piece of jade. His face was cold and expressionless. Huangfu Yang’s appearance could originally be considered not bad, but when she stood by this person’s side, she was easily defeated.
What was even more strange was that all the other true disciples were dressed in cyan. Only he was dressed in white, and only his sleeves were covered in a ring of cyan inscriptions.
Relying on his clothes, Ye Zhifa was able to deduce his identity. In the Sword Palace, if one was not the Sect Leader, but the next Sect Leader, he was Mu Guiren!
As he was thinking, he could not help but mutter the three words “Mu Guiren” out loud. Hearing that his name was called, Mu Guiren turned and looked over with an ice-cold gaze.
Ye Zhifa and he looked at each other, and felt that not only did the person have a face as cold as ice, the gaze was also devoid of any feelings, as though two sharp swords were piercing through.
But when Mu Guiren realised that the person who spoke was the youngest Successor Disciple of the Sword Palace, his gaze suddenly turned soft, and he slightly nodded towards Ye Zhifa, then turned his head.
This change surprised Ye Zhifa, as he did not know what kind of character this future Sect Master had. However, the atmosphere in the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle was heavy, there were too many people talking, so he could not directly find Du Lin to ask.
In the face of the impending big battle, although the expressions of the people within the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle were different, their hearts still carried some burdens, so as the flying shuttle progressed, not many people actually opened their mouths to speak.
No one stopped him at this altitude. With the speed of the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle, it took them less than two hours to reach the top of the Bone Freeze Forest.
Waiting until the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle slowly slowed down and started to descend, Ye Zhifa suddenly became nervous in his heart. Sun Moon and Star Sect who had been enemies with the Sword Palace for hundreds of years, what kind of unexpected method did he have?
Following a jolt, the small door opened once again. Huangfu Xuan said in a low voice, “We’re here”, then led the way out of the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle.
When Ye Zhifa walked out of the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle, he discovered that there was actually a large cloud bed made up of white clouds outside. This square shaped bed was most likely more than three hundred meters wide, and it was still more than thirty meters away from the Ice Bone Forest at his feet.
Could it be that this so-called martial arts competition was actually fought in the air?!
When Ye Zhifa stepped onto the bed, he realized that this light looking bed was neither soft nor elastic. It was actually no different from walking on normal ground.
He looked around and even saw the Mirage of the Darkya region that had yet to open up in the Frigid Bone Forest. Huangfu Xuan had already talked to the rest of the Sun Moon and Star Sect s who had arrived earlier than him.
“Miao Tisheng, why are you here, the Sect Leader of your Sun Moon and Star Sect?”
“Humph, Huangfu Xuan, it’s not like your sect leaders didn’t appear, we’re all the same, right?”
The Sun Moon and Star Sect did not know why, but the Sect Leader did not appear here either. The person in the lead was also a Deputy Sect Leader, like the Sword Palace.
Miao Tisheng who was talking to Huangfu Xuan was a middle aged man dressed in a brown robe, and their conversation, which was filled with fire and spear intent, also called Ye Zhifa’s attention back to him.
Ye Zhifa looked down and saw that half of the elders and disciples sent by the Sun Moon and Star Sect were actually female. This was a stark contrast to the fact that all fourteen of the Sword Palace’s disciples were male.
After all, males had an advantage when it came to their physique. It was not surprising that there were many male disciples, but the same concern did not apply to Sun Moon and Star Sect.
The appearances and figures of the disciples of Sun Moon and Star Sect were all different, even Ye Zhifa couldn’t remember them clearly. Amongst this large group, there was a little girl with emerald feathers on his head who was about the same age as Ye Zhifa and was slightly younger than the others.
This was the first time the Successor Disciples were meeting their opponent, so they naturally couldn’t help but look at him a few times, and she clearly noticed Ye Zhifa’s gaze on the little girl.
The girl was quite generous, when she realized that Ye Zhifa was looking at her, she looked back at him very naturally. When the two of them looked at each other, it was Ye Zhifa who turned his head away in embarrassment.
What a failure! He actually lost a match before the battle began.
By the time Ye Zhifa complained to himself in his heart, the choking between Huangfu Xuan and himself had already reached its final stage.
“Huangfu Xuan, why did you bring out such a young child? Could it be that there is truly no one else in your Bend Flower Sword Palace that can use it? ”
“Miao Tisheng, what is the point of saying this, could it be that your female disciple is also young?”
Miao Tisheng turned his head to look at the girl who was looking straight into Ye Zhifa’s eyes. Suddenly, he revealed a meaningful smile and said: “Huangfu Xuan, when we really fight, you will know how bad your eyes are. Forget it, there’s no point in wasting any more words. Just tell me how we should fight today. ”
Although Miao Tisheng’s words contained a hidden meaning, Huangfu Xuan was momentarily unable to understand the true meaning behind them. He only needed to reply: “Since the rules are here, then it would naturally be the old way of fighting, to go from weak to strong. Could it be that you want to break the rules? ”
The promise of a duel between the two sects was made by the seniors of the two sects in order to avoid the slaughter between the two sects. If they used a tactic similar to that, the loser would not be satisfied. When the slaughter starts again, the duel will be meaningless.
Maybe deep in their hearts, Huangfu Xuan and Miao Tisheng both wished that they could slaughter the entire opposing sect, but they did not dare to go against their ancestors’ teachings, so the rules for today’s competition was set.
Amongst the Successor Disciples sent out by the Sword Palace this time, Ye Zhifa was the youngest, and his cultivation was also the weakest, so he was naturally the first to fight.
However, the disciple that Sun Moon and Star Sect had sent out was not that girl, but a skinny youth. This was completely outside of Ye Zhifa’s expectations and even Huangfu Xuan was surprised by this.
“Miao Tisheng, what do you mean by this? Is this really the weakest true disciple you have today? ”
Miao Tisheng naturally knew what Huangfu Xuan meant, but after he sneered, he did not directly answer Huangfu Xuan’s question.
“Huangfu Xuan, you can rest assured. If not for the fact that each of the disciples we sent out today is stronger than the previous one, you would have won the battle. “Now, please calm down and watch the following match!”
