Refining the Mountains and Rivers

C.1733 – The Great Dao is in Front

Outside Sky Falling Mountain, there were several blurry-looking figures standing in mid-air.

They were here but seemed to be very far away. It was difficult to see them and impossible to feel them.

The fight for Great Dao involved several high-ranking existences and the matter of whether there may be a new member joining them.

No one could ignore such a huge matter like this even if they were a peak existence themselves.

The silence was broken when one of them spoke in a neutral tone, “Clan Leader, there seems to be something strange going on in Sky Falling Mountain. Do you know why?”

“Hmph! If you are suspicious, you should just say it directly.” As soon as he spoke, it was obvious that this illusion was Bull Dingtian.

He spoke in an unfriendly tone, “Clan Leader, I am warning you, my precious granddaughter is inside. If something happens to her here, don’t blame me for what I might do!”

Woosh –

The air flashed and an illusion appeared in the air. It was the leader of that clan. He was a tall man and he spoke calmly, “I have already given an explanation for the strange phenomenon that happened in Sky Falling Mountain. Old Ancestor Bull, if you don’t want to put your granddaughter at risk, then I can bring her out now.”

Bull Dingtian sneered, “You dare!”

The leader of that clan said slowly, “Of course.” He looked at everyone else, “Everyone, if you have similar concerns, I can fulfill your wishes as well.”

No one spoke.

Give up? Impossible!

Putting aside the question whether the strange phenomenon had anything to do with that clan, it must have something to do with the Great Dao.

Or perhaps, the new owner of Sky Falling Mountain was about to appear.

At this point, even if they knew that Sky Falling Mountain had become a purgatory ground, no one would dare to give up.

“Old Ancestor Bull, you even turned your defensive capabilities into a Great Dao Golden Armor for Bull Bean. Are you still afraid that something will happen to her?” The leader of that clan suddenly backstabbed.

Sky Falling Mountain was a Great Dao in itself. Though it was currently sealed, it was of the same level as them.

This prevented them from being able to clearly ‘see’ what was going on in it now.

Since that clan has been controlling Sky Falling Mountain until now, they had some methods and everyone knew this.

Hence, the things he said were most likely true.

Silence suddenly filled the air.

They were True Kings which were peak existences, and they suddenly became thoughtful. The atmosphere shifted. All of a sudden, the group that had been ganging up against that clan was shifting.

The birth of a True King was sufficient to affect the entire Central Desolate and the interests of the world. So they gathered in order to observe firsthand and take appropriate measures.

The same logic applied. The fall of a True King could also cause a change. It would cause numerous benefits to be released back into the world for everyone else to divide and take!

Bull Dingtian laughed out loud, “There was no choice. I love Bean, this little brat, too much and cannot bear to have her injured in the slightest.”

His laughter suddenly died off and there was a glimmer in the eyes of his illusion. He looked at everyone and spoke calmly, “My Great Dao Golden Armor is with Bean and I am in a weakened state. If any of you wants to kill me, this is a once in a lifetime chance – you had better not miss it!”

No one spoke.

The leader of that clan spoke slowly, “Old Ancestor Bull, you have the most powerful physical body in the world. Even without the Great Dao Golden Armor, you would at most only lose twenty or thirty percent of your battle prowess.”

He then stopped and did not say more.

But this was enough.

Old Ancestor Bull sneered and looked at him icily. His clash with that clan had caused any semblance of their relationship to tear apart.

At this moment, there was a shift in the air and a rumbling sound could be heard, “That clan, there is someone in Sky Falling Mountain who dared to join hands to attack a disciple of the Thirteenth Floor. If anything happens, you will not be able to escape responsibility!”

The leader of that clan frowned and waved his sleeve.

‘Bam.’ There was a sound and the shift in the air disappeared. The person who had attacked the elder from the Thirteenth Floor was thrown even further.

“What happens in Sky Falling Mountain determines who the True King Great Dao belongs to. If they are in Sky Falling Mountain, whether they get it is up to fate.”

“Get lost! If you dare to be rude, I will kill you!”

The roar sounded like thunder and the air shook.

……

When they found White Iris, she was in a much worse state than Bull Bean. If she had not pushed through her Sword Dao’s bottleneck back in Infinite Monastery, she might have already died.

Bull Bean’s eyes widened, “She can move the Great Dao’s aura!”

She looked shocked.

Qin Yu coughed lightly, “Maybe it is because you awakened the Great Dao that she has a chance to do so.”

Bull Bean thought about it, “Really?”

Qin Yu nodded, “It must be! Miss Bull, you can help to save her. Once the power of this illusionary small world depletes, she can help us.”

Bull Bean replied, “Do we have to? My Old Ancestor said that after this illusionary small world is activated, it can last for at least half a month…”

The Bull Family was rich!

For this kind of treasure to last one or two days, it would already be considered powerful. But this Void Pearl could actually last for half a month.

This was priceless.

“Cough!” Qin Yu forced himself to be thick-skinned, “Though that may be the case, no one knows what will happen in the chaos in Sky Falling Mountain.

“Moreover, I don’t think that clan will be willing to give away the Great Dao from Sky Falling Mountain. Now that the Great Dao’s aura has erupted, they may do something and it is better for us to be prepared.”

Bull Bean nodded, “You are right!”

Qin Yu was speechless, “...”

What was the logic? Even he did not know what he was saying!

“Miss Bull, please make a move.”

Qin Yu did not know what would happen after he left the protection of the Void Pearl, hence it was better to be cautious.

Moreover, Bull Bean also had the Great Dao Golden Armor. It was a protection that would surpass all attacks. It would be a waste not to use it.

“How?” Bull Bean felt her body shrink as she looked nervous.

Qin Yu thought about it before taking a deep breath. He took a step forwards and shouted, “Miss Bull is here, if you don’t want to die, get lost!”

The cultivators that had their treasures destroyed by Bull Bean were now nowhere to be found. It was not a secret that Bull Bean had the Great Dao Golden Armor.

Whoever wanted to go against her…hehe, they must be stupid!

“Bull Bean!”

“It is her!”

“We can’t mess with her!”

“Let’s go!”

In a blink of an eye, the people surrounding White Iris had been scared off.

Bull Bean was speechless, “...”

She blinked as she came out from her daze. She looked delighted. I am such a powerful person? Just my name is enough to scare them away!

Qin Yu put his hands together respectfully, “Miss Bull, you are impressive. With just your name, those that wanted to create trouble have run off.”

Bull Bean blushed. Of course she knew that what they were afraid of was the Great Dao Golden Armor given to her by her Old Ancestor.

She rushed to wave her hand, “It is not like that.”

Qin Yu smiled and turned to look at White Iris, “Miss, there is a strange phenomenon on Sky Falling Mountain. I wonder if you are willing to have an exchange with us.”

He pointed, “This is Miss Bull, the best rogue cultivator. She is also Bull Dingtian’s favorite granddaughter and can protect us.”

White Iris frowned as she looked alarmed.

Alas, not all women were like Bull Bean.

Qin Yu sighed and said, “I am Miss Rourou’s person.”

White Iris’ eyes lit up, “Okay!”

Bull Bean lowered her voice, “Zhou Huan, I find it strange that she suddenly changed her mind.”

Qin Yu coughed lightly, “Miss Bull, you are worrying too much. She was just hesitating. She must have recalled how your name was able to scare everyone off and made up her mind.

“Trust me, it is okay.”

White Iris walked over and frowned slightly as she looked at Qin Yu.

He was slightly startled. He prayed internally. Women’s instinct can’t be that sharp can it?

Very soon, he breathed a sigh of relief.

“Where have you met Madam?”

Qin Yu replied, “Swallow Mountain.”

“How is Madam?”

“Very good.”

White Iris looked at him.

Qin Yu was expressionless, “The both of us shall be under Miss Bull’s protection in Sky Falling Mountain. We will listen to her.”

White Iris snorted but agreed.

Bull Bean thought about it, “Then…shall we continue to absorb the Great Dao’s aura?”

Qin Yu nodded, “That would be best.”

“Where should we go?”

“That way.”

White Iris appeared slightly confused as she looked at Qin Yu. What did he feed Bull Bean for her to be so abiding? But that was normal. Those that were chosen by her madam must have some skills.

But those skills being used in the current situation, moreover, against a woman, made her feel slightly guarded.

Qin Yu could not be bothered with White Iris’ icy gaze. It is good enough that I saved you, how dare you show me attitude.

The boundary of the Void Pearl expanded slightly and covered White Iris. Her face changed slightly but she did not say anything.

The three of them left.

……

Ming Zhe was the first to rush to the rescue of the Thirteenth Floor disciples. In order to move fast, he even lost his attendant on the way.

“Junior sister Li, don’t panic. I am on my way!”

Lifting his hand, a brilliant light shot into the air and filled the space, forcing an attacking cultivator to back off. He vomited blood.

“Oh no, it is the Thirteenth Floor’s disciple Ming Zhe!”

“We can’t deal with him; let’s go!”

“Hurry!”

Everyone did not hesitate to run off in a frenzy.

Not only was it because Ming Zhe’s attack had severely injured one of them, but it was also because of his reputation!

One of the four gentlemen of the Thirteenth Floor.

Amongst the rumored top ten strongest people beneath the King realm, he was ranked third.

Sky Falling Mountain was itself a Great Dao and prevented anyone of the King realm that had crossed the Celestial Threshold from entering. Otherwise their Great Daos would clash.

Hence, amongst those beneath the King realm, Ming Zhe was basically invincible. Want to kill him? There is a possibility, but they would all die together with him.

Moreover, if Ming Zhe was here, how far would the other Thirteenth Floor disciples be?

Li Ruhua was kneeling on the floor, covered in blood. She only had energy left to breathe as she looked at Ming Zhe gratefully.

Li Ruhua held her sword and stood up. She looked elegant and aside from how pale she appeared, no other part of her seemed injured. She sheathed her sword and greeted, “Thank you senior brother Ming Zhe.”

Ming Zhe waved his hand, “Junior sister, it is alright. Hurry and heal if there is any part of you that is injured.”

Li Ruhua shook her head, “I am okay, my Li Family ancestors gave me a protective treasure before I left.”

Ming Zhe nodded, “That’s good.”

Hoo –

Hoo –

There was the sound of something flying through the air as the remaining disciples from the Thirteenth Floor arrived.

The lotus signal represented a major crisis and as long as any of the disciples saw it, they would rush to help.

“Junior sister Li!” The people that came looked severe as they asked, “What happened?”

Xu Wei, one of the four gentlemen of the Thirteenth Floor, ranked seventh for those beneath the King realm.

Everyone else glanced at Ming Zhe.

Li Ruhua replied, “Senior brother Xu, senior brother Ming Zhe knows what happened. Let me adjust my internal aura for a while. Please protect me.”

Xu Zhe replied, “Junior sister Li, don’t worry.”

He took a step forward.

Ming Zhe looked calm, “Junior sister, don’t worry.” He noticed that Li Ruhua was guarded against him and was only willing to recuperate after Xu Wei arrived.

This was normal and he would also have done this. It was important to be cautious.

Two hours later, the remaining disciples all gathered.

Other than Ming Zhe and Xu Wei, there were two other female seniors and one other male senior. She was the last to join the Thirteenth Floor.

But the truth was that Li Ruhua was famous in the Thirteenth Floor.

The Floor Master’s judgment of her was widely known – this woman was lucky!

Today, this judgment was verified.

From Ming Zhe, they found out that she had been ambushed. Seeing the state of her, they understood what happened.

Li Ruhua had seen the Great Dao of Sky Falling Mountain and formed a link!

It made them admire her.

Though all the Thirteenth Floor disciples were talented, it was also because they had a broad exposure that they knew the limitless potential.

True Kings were peak existences and their presence was as huge as a mountain!

Though they all seemed impressive, whether they were able to cross the Celestial Threshold was a different story. Much less becoming a True King and becoming a peak existence!

Now that Li Ruhua had caught hold of a possibility…once she succeeded, she could become a True King.

How could they not admire her?

“Junior brother Ming Zhe…” Amongst them, the highest-ranking senior sister spoke slowly.

The air fell silent and everyone could sense a restlessness in the air.

The Great Dao was in front!

Ming Zhe said in a low voice, “Though Sky Falling Mountain is outside of the world and forms its own world with the Great Dao, the True Kings are still able to find out what is going on.”

All the Thirteenth Floor disciples could sense the contradiction in his words as they knew Sky Falling Mountain well.

They knew that True Kings are not able to see into the world.

So what Ming Zhe was referring to…could be the True Kings from that clan.

It would be hard for them not to know what was going on in Sky Falling Mountain.

Everyone subconsciously looked into the distance. Li Ruhua and Chen Sanglue…they were inconsequential people that no one should mind.

At this moment, a calm voice appeared in their minds, “I swear upon my Great Dao, that no one from the outside world will know of what happens today.”

This voice…it was the True King from that clan.

Swearing on his Great Dao.

No one would dare to disobey. The higher their cultivation, the more unwilling they would be. Swearing on his Great Dao meant it was completely reliable.

The air fell silent once more.

No one spoke but everyone heard what had just been said.

Under the current circumstance, this silence felt extremely long…and terrifying!
