Chapter 107: Jian Xin’s Request
Zhou Yun realized that something was wrong with the small world of the heretic cultivator! From time to time, a series of earth-shaking explosions could be heard! There were even some traces of battle between the spiritual corpses on the road!
Someone had really invaded the small world of the heretic cultivator!
Who was it? Could they really be members of the five sects? Did the sect leaders of the five sects really come? Then if he brought Qiao’er to search for the members of the five sects now, wouldn’t he be able to escape the heretic cultivator’s control?
Many thoughts flashed through Zhou Yun’s mind. suddenly, he stopped in front of a spiritual corpse.
The spiritual corpse had been split in half. Although it was just an ordinary spiritual corpse, which might be a great enemy of foundation establishment cultivators in the outside world, it was indeed common in the world of heretic cultivators. It was only responsible for giving Zhou Yun some resources and spiritual fruits.
The reason why Zhou Yun suddenly stopped and focused his attention on the spiritual corpse was because he could sense a familiar aura.
Zhou Yun could sense a familiar aura from the spiritual corpse’s head! It was the sword intent. The sword intent was exactly the same as the one he had felt when he first entered the Spirit Valley and when Su Lingyun first wielded the Spirit Valley’s sect-inheritance spiritual weapon!
“Perhaps there are many sword intents in this world, but the sword intent that each person uses is unique! This spiritual corpse has Ling Qingyun’s sword intent. Doesn’t that mean that sect leader Ling Qingyun has really come to the small world of the heretic cultivator?” Zhou Yun was overjoyed!
If Ling Qingyun was here, that would mean that Zhou Yun would be able to escape from the heretic cultivator’s control!
“I’ll quickly find Qiao’er! After that, I’ll bring her to find sect leader Ling Qingyun and leave this damned place!” Zhou Yun’s figure moved. This time, his figure was several times faster than before!
As he ran, Zhou Yun created a perfected movement technique in his enlightenment, which increased his speed greatly!
Although he had connected all the intents into one and created a comprehensive intent secret technique, Zhou Yun could still use each spell independently!
Very quickly, Zhou Yun arrived at the foot of the flat top mountain. With a hand seal, he stepped on the Fire Dragon Sword and flew up the mountain!
The mountain path was filled with the remains of the spiritual corpses. Zhou Yun could not help but feel a little worried. Qiao’er couldn’t have encountered people from the five sects, right?
Why did Senior Brother Jian Xin say that no matter what happened, he had to go to his side?
If they were to meet the sect leaders of the five sects, wouldn’t they be able to crush them with their strength and ask sect leader Ling Qingyun to take them out of this heretic cultivator’s world?
“Qiao’er!” Zhou Yun noticed that Qiao’er was meditating with her eyes closed. He rode his sword and approached her. No matter what, he had to bring Qiao’er along first!
Zhou Yun planned to go around a bit further away when he returned to find Jian Xin. If he could see sect leader Ling Qingyun, he would definitely go there without hesitation!
“Brother Zhou Yun! What are you doing here? Don’t you still need to cultivate?” Qiao’er came back to her senses from her cultivation and saw Zhou Yun descending from the sky on his sword. She went up to him excitedly.
“Senior Brother Jian Xin said that the people of the five sects have invaded the small world of the heretic cultivator. He wants us to hurry to his side and be careful of the heretic cultivator’s methods.” Zhou Yun told Qiao’er what Jian Xin had just said.
After Qiao’er heard this, she pondered for a long time before she suddenly spoke.
“Brother Zhou Yun, did you see many spiritual corpses that were killed when you came here? And you even found sect leader Ling Qingyun’s unique sword intent on the spiritual corpse?”
“That’s right. Other than sect leader Ling Qingyun’s sword, I also found many extremely powerful sword intents. They might be the techniques of the other four sect leaders.” Zhou Yun said.
“Then, did Senior Brother Jian Xin say that if I don’t go to his side, the heretic cultivator might make a move?” Qiao’er asked.
“That’s right. I’ve also asked Senior Brother Jian Xin why he didn’t come with me to pick you up.” Zhou Yun also started to think if he had missed something.
“Then there’s one last thing. Big Brother Zhou Yun, besides the sword intents and traces of attacks, did you find any spiritual weapon fragments or any corpses of the five sects’ disciples around those spiritual corpses? If a battle were to really break out, not everyone, not even the disciples of the five sects, would be able to defeat the terrifying spiritual corpse. There are bound to be casualties, so why aren’t there any corpses of the five sects’ disciples?” Qiao’er explained her analysis as she went on. finally, Qiao’er shifted her gaze to Zhou Yun, waiting for his reply.
“That’s right. Why didn’t we see any corpses of disciples from the five sects or spiritual weapon fragments along the way?” Although Zhou Yun was not self-satisfied, he knew that he was more powerful than ordinary cultivators. within the five sects, even Su Wanyi, who was the eldest senior sister of the inner sect, was helpless when facing the spiritual corpse unless she used a special medicinal liquid.
The sect leaders of the five sects couldn’t defeat so many heretic cultivators’ spiritual corpses in such a short time. It was the disciples of the five sects who did it!
When did so many prodigies appear in the five sects? The spiritual corpse’s subordinates were not injured at all!
“Could it be that the five sects’ attack was fake? Are these all directed and acted out by the heretic cultivator?” Zhou Yun voiced his suspicions. After all, all the information he knew was what Jian Xin had told him, the sounds of battle in the distance, and the spiritual corpse on the ground.
“Brother Zhou Yun, although I don’t know why the heretic cultivator is doing this on purpose, there is no doubt that the heretic cultivator’s small world is facing a problem. Let’s go to Senior Brother Jian Xin’s side first.” Qiao’er suggested after some thought. In the beginning, she had gone to beg sect leader Ling Qingyun to save Brother Zhou Yun, but she had been rejected.
Now, the news that the five sects had suddenly gathered to attack the heretic cultivator’s world was being spread. Wasn’t this going back on their words? Qiao’er naturally didn’t believe that the five sects would make a move from the start.
“Alright. Qiao’er, let’s go to Senior Brother Jian Xin’s side.” Zhou Yun said. This heretic cultivator was full of tricks, and they really couldn’t act rashly!
Zhou Yun brought Qiao’er with him and rode on his flying sword toward the direction of Jian Xin.
“Boom!” The sound of an explosion came from the distance again. Zhou Yun could feel that the sound was getting closer and closer, as if it was not far away.
However, when he looked at the ground, he saw that there were clearly so many spiritual corpses that had been killed, yet he did not see a single disciple of the five sects. Zhou Yun’s eyes flickered, but he still chose to go to Senior Brother Jian Xin’s side.
“Junior Brother Zhou Yun, you’ve returned. Junior Sister Qiao’er, it’s great that you’re safe and sound.” Jian Xin woke up from his meditation. He looked at Zhou Yun and Qiao’er and smiled in satisfaction.
“It’s a good thing that you didn’t encounter any members of the five sects on your way here. It looks like the other spiritual corpses have indeed led them away. Next, please come to my side and don’t leave the ten-meter formation.” Jian Xin pointed at the circle of dead spiritual corpses.
The corpses of the spiritual corpses formed a circle. Each spiritual corpse was covered in dense patterns. Zhou Yun felt dizzy just by looking at the patterns.
Upon closer inspection, Zhou Yun realized that the patterns were actually formed by souls!
“This is the soul-sealing array. The people of the five sects definitely won’t be able to discover us here.” Jian Xin said as he pointed into the distance.
In the distance, a group of people was slowly walking over.
