Chapter 1043: Long Tianhuo - Zhou Yu
Unlike before, Ling Yun did not fight in his complete dragon form, and he did not even use his half-dragon form, especially since the number of cultivators fighting with him was much greater than before.
Not to mention, there are still so many cultivators from the supreme realm and leaders from the nature race, which makes their overall strength too overpowered to deal with those beasts.
Moreover, Ling Yun’s current strength was more than enough to fight against the beasts in the heavenly god realm, so he fought normally by repeatedly changing his weapons, sometimes using the scythe, the cannon, the broadsword, and so on.
As usual, Ling Yin’s six followers also assisted him, but he forbade them to use their beast form so that they wouldn’t be too conspicuous. Even so, their abilities still caused many people’s jaws to drop, and many of them decided to stay away, especially since they were frightened by Jiu Shen’s poison.
Ling Yun’s actions still sparked jealousy from cultivators who didn’t know him, especially since he was the only one who had a weapon with seven changes, and some of them seemed eager to take it from him. Even some cultivators who were familiar with him, such as Tang Jingling and the disciples of the Eternal Spring Sect, were also jealous of him.
Although Ling Yun was aware of this, he didn’t give them much attention. However, he continued to pay attention to the young generations of the Huang and Fu Clans who came from the Star Cloud Realm, particularly because of their two clans’ relationship with the heretics of the Earth Cloud Realm.
At first, Ling Xi intended to get rid of them immediately, but Ling Yun immediately stopped her and asked her to wait, stating that she could take action if those people started doing undesirable things.
Meanwhile, Ling Yun’s wives and families whose cultivation was still below the five god realms did not participate in their battle, and they waited in front of the gate to the next floor under the protection of Long Tianhuo, so no beasts dared to approach them.
Instead, they chatted and gossiped with each other, and many of them asked Feng Huang various questions about the supreme realm, which she was pleased to answer.
As for Long Tianhuo, he didn’t care about other cultivators, including his son. Instead, he kept his eyes fixed on Ling Yun’s movements, with his hands tightly clenched in front of his chest. ‘What the hell with that kid? How could he fight like that? Even I, who have cultivated for countless millennia, can’t fight like him! His attacks have no flaws, and every attack is truly deadly and unstoppable.
Not to mention, his movements are fluid and agile, and his ability to use his senses to monitor his surroundings is flawless, eliminating the need for him to look elsewhere to kill his opponents.’ frёewebnoѵēl.com
But alas, Long Tianhuo still didn’t know Ling Yun well, and he naturally didn’t know about his strengths and advantages. After all, his clones continued to train by fighting with Meng Xianzi’s clones inside the dream space, and the flow of time there made his fighting experience increase rapidly, so he could surpass an old cultivator like him.
Not only Long Tianhuo but other cultivators were also shocked and amazed by Ling Yun’s fighting ability, including the leaders of those natural races, and they kept wondering in their hearts about how he had honed it.
However, none of them said anything, and they tried hard to show off their best abilities in order to attract Long Tianhuo’s attention, especially after they found out that he came from the supreme realm, so they hoped that he would choose them to be his disciple.
Unfortunately, their efforts would only be in vain, especially since Long Tianhuo never intended to look for disciples, and he came to the mysterious tower specifically to bring his wife to reunite with Xiao Xiao.
However, there was one among them who looked increasingly frustrated at Ling Yun, and that person was none other than Ning Fan, who had fought separately from their group.
“Are you surprised by his fighting ability?” Long Tianhuo immediately turned to Zhou Yu and nodded. “If you fight him without using your cultivation, I dare to guarantee that you will lose miserably to him, especially since he has honed his fighting skills far beyond your age.”
Long Tianhuo raised his eyebrows immediately. “How could he do such a thing? I don’t doubt your words, especially since there are so many mysteries in our universe, and I think he has gotten something interesting that allows him to do it.”
“You are right; my husband did get something interesting, and he got it from his master.” Long Tianhuo was a little surprised to hear that Ling Yun had a master, as he thought that he learned everything from Ling Xi and Zhou Yu. “His master is called Meng Xianzi, and she has several nicknames, such as the two-face fox and the dream fairy.”
“The dream fairy? Why do I feel like I’ve heard that nickname before?” Long Tianhuo then delved into his memory for the nickname, displaying a surprised expression upon discovering it, before nodding at Zhou Yu. “A long time ago, I met a woman who earned the nickname ‘dream fairy’ because of her exceptional ability to both bring and kill people through dreams.
Her name was Zhui Mengren, and she was an extremely talented cultivator. Unfortunately, she was born with an unknown disease, which caused her body to weaken continuously, and no healer could cure her, so she died before her cultivation could reach the five god realms.”
Zhou Yu nodded before telling Long Tianhuo. “Meng Xianzi accidentally found Zhui Mengren’s grave when she was about to die, and she met her soul remnant there. In the end, she saved her life and passed on her dream technique to her, so she decided to use that nickname to honor her, which led her to become the best assassin in the upper realms.”
After hearing that, Long Tianhuo returned his gaze to Ling Yun, who was relentlessly killing beasts, and he then asked Zhou Yu again. “Wasn’t that kid born in the lower realms? How did he meet Meng Xianzhi? I’m sure a cultivator like her wouldn’t waste her time going there, so they shouldn’t have been able to meet.”
“Haha.” Zhou Yu chuckled in response. “In fact, when they first met, Meng Xianzi was not in the lower realms, and my husband unknowingly entered her dream realm. Since no one had ever been able to do that before, she decided to pass on her dream technique to him. However, she eventually decided to take him as her first disciple, and she also passed on her assassination technique to him.
This way, you should already know where his experience came from, right?”
“Yes.” Long Tianhuo nodded in response to Zhou Yu. “Back then, I fought with Zhui Mengren, and after my defeat, she imprisoned me in her dream space for a thousand years. However, she didn’t do it because she didn’t like me; rather, she wanted to help me, and she told me that she could control the flow of time.
Even though I couldn’t use my cultivation there, I could still take advantage of the fast flow of time to learn and understand various things. No wonder that kid can fight that well; it turns out he got such a great inheritance.”
Zhou Yu then asked Long Tianhuo. “How long are you going to stay here? Although the eternal ice cannot melt, your wife cannot stay in it for too long, and she must return to the frostmoon domain, or her injuries will worsen again.”
“Yeah, you’re right.” Long Tianhuo then looked at Feng Huang, who was busy chatting with their daughter and the others. “Huang’er can still stay here for a week, so I’ll take her away then. However, I’ll do something about Zhu Ling and Jing Shen first, and then I’ll take her to the Earth Cloud Realm to capture Hundun before taking her back to the supreme realm.”
Zhou Yu thought for a moment before conveying her idea to Long Tianhuo. “Since you want to go to that realm to capture Hundun, I hope you can do something about Gu Tianchong, especially since he is the leader of the heretics, so they will give up their intention to start a war with the other two realms.”
“All right.” Long Tianhuo immediately agreed, particularly since it would also affect Xiao Xiao. “However, I won’t do anything to the other heretics; I’ll only do something to Gu Tianchong. Is that okay?”
“Yes!” Zhou Yu felt relieved after Long Tianhuo agreed. “That’s enough to ease our burden; we’ll handle the rest of them ourselves. Moreover, I think Tang Chen will be back soon, and he can definitely take care of those heretics by himself with his cultivation having broken through to the three immortal realms.”
Ling Xi, who was listening to their conversation from a distance, was also relieved that Long Tianhuo was willing to help them, especially since she had no confidence that Ling Yun could defeat Zhu Ling and Jing Shen. Moreover, it was not easy for him to reach the top of the mysterious tower, and it also took a very long time, so his help would greatly help them.
