Chapter 95

Chapter 95: Recovery

One hour!

Everyone sensed the sword intent radiating from Chen Ansheng, and they were momentarily shocked.

“Junior Brother Chen, have you comprehended it?” Gu Jue was the first to inquire.

“Just barely getting started,” Chen Ansheng nodded ambiguously.

“Good! Junior Brother Chen is indeed a prodigy!” Gu Jue couldn’t help but exclaim.

The others were equally impressed.

A true genius cannot lack talent or understanding.

At this moment, in the eyes of everyone, Chen Ansheng was indeed a real genius!

“Sigh, I suddenly feel a bit sorry for Nan Gong Xiu…” Yao Jianyuan pretended to lament.

Such a genius, and yet she, Nan Gong Xiu, not only failed to nurture him but allowed her daughter to suppress him — truly a strange case.

“Feel sorry for her? We should be thankful to Nan Gong Xiu; otherwise, how would Junior Brother Chen have joined our Bi Yan Cave, haha,” Sun Xinhao laughed.

“Enough.” Gu Jue said seriously, “Since Junior Brother Chen has comprehended the sword formation, we should immediately start practicing together.”

Chen Ansheng, however, said, “Senior Brother, I’m just getting started and still need some time to consolidate my understanding. What do you think?”

“Hmm.” Gu Jue nodded and said, “Your comprehension is exceptionally high, and we’re safe now, so following your advice to wait a bit longer is fine.”

Thus, Chen Ansheng fell silent again.

However, he was not training the sword formation but was using his mental intent to sense the whereabouts of the puppet Li Xiuyuan.

“I wonder if the person riding on that giant bird is Li Xiuyuan!”

Generally speaking, Chen Ansheng’s control over puppets was not limited by spatial distance. But that was under the laws of the same-origin world.

During the chaos of the alien world’s laws, everything was filled with unknown changes, even affecting Chen Ansheng’s control over the puppet.

“I sensed it…”

After focusing intently for about a quarter of an hour, Chen Ansheng finally locked onto Li Xiuyuan’s physical form.

His intent went forth to control.

In his eyes, the scene suddenly changed.

“Everyone, kill for me!”

“Elder Wu, retreat quickly!”

“Beware, Cave Master…”

Around the giant bird, dozens of profound immortals were moving around; their immortal artifacts occasionally struck the giant bird, yet they found it difficult to inflict fatal damage.

At this moment, in Chen Ansheng’s view, their attacks felt as if they were hitting his own body.

“What’s going on… The giant bird and my puppet seem to be one entity!”

Chen Ansheng was filled with surprise and confusion.

“Caw!”

Just as Chen Ansheng was in a daze, a mournful shriek echoed from Li Xiuyuan’s spiritual consciousness sea.

A black shadow lunged towards the spiritual idea body that Chen Ansheng had coalesced within Li Xiuyuan’s consciousness sea.

“Not good, it’s fighting me for control over Li Xiuyuan!”

Chen Ansheng quickly reacted, but that giant bird’s spiritual idea body was far stronger than his.

He had no time to withdraw; the giant bird’s spiritual idea body was already barreling towards him.

“Oh no…”

Chen Ansheng felt frantic and was prepared for his spiritual soul to suffer serious damage.

“Crack!”

Suddenly, in Li Xiuyuan’s consciousness sea, an unparalleled will transformed into golden lightning and struck fiercely at the giant bird’s spiritual idea body.

“Bang!”

The giant bird’s transformed spiritual idea body was directly shattered, turning into fragments of alien laws, disappearing without a trace.

Only then did Chen Ansheng let out a breath of relief, murmuring, “It seems my puppet technique is still stronger!”

“Caw!”

After the spiritual idea body shattered, the giant bird’s true form in the forbidden zone seemed to also suffer significant damage; it screamed and danced wildly, releasing a rain of law arrows that wounded and repelled all the profound immortals surrounding it.

Then, the giant bird quickly dove down, crashing toward the entrance of that forbidden zone.

“Boom…”

The giant bird’s incredibly hard body slammed into the edge of the forbidden zone, causing the ground to tremble violently and dust to rise.

The giant bird appeared in pain, rolling and thrashing as it fell into the dark cave.

Crimson electric patterns flickered at the entrance of the forbidden zone, and the ground shook violently once again. After about ten breaths, the entrance of the forbidden zone closed, vanishing from sight.

In Chen Ansheng’s eyes, only darkness remained, and his control over Li Xiuyuan once again became tenuous.

“I wonder where the giant bird took Li Xiuyuan?”

After a moment, Chen Ansheng could no longer perceive Li Xiuyuan’s existence and had no choice but to withdraw his mental intent.

The moment the entrance to the forbidden zone disappeared, a beam of immortal light pierced the darkness, and the crack in the sky grew wider.

After a tumultuous moment, the darkness completely vanished. In the azure sky, wisps of white clouds floated, while Ninefold Flower Mountain lay in ruins below.

“Is it over?”

“Haha, great! We’ve finally escaped with our lives!”

“Everyone, quickly tend to your wounds!”

As the laws of heaven and earth restored, rich immortal spiritual energy seeped from the underground immortal veins, and everyone hurried to take healing pills, sitting down to meditate and recover.

“We’re back! Everyone, come out; the world has returned to normal!”

No one knew who shouted, but the immortal sound rushed into each ancestral grave, and figures surged forth!

Everyone cheered and gulped down the rich immortal spiritual energy.

“Junior Brother Chen, the disaster has passed; we don’t need to practice the sword formation anymore, haha.”

Gu Jue and the others were overjoyed and quickly called Chen Ansheng to awaken.

Chen Ansheng opened his eyes, feeling the changes outside and was also relieved.

“I’ve been cooped up for these past few days; it feels so good to have strength again.”

“The forbidden zone is truly terrifying; if it weren’t for that Junior Brother Li’s spiritual liquid, we’d probably be dead by now.”

“Indeed, but that Junior Brother Li is likely in deep trouble now.”

“Hmph, Qian Yue Cave is truly despicable; we’ll take our time settling the score with them later!”

“Brothers, come quickly! The Cave Master has clashed with Qian Yue Cave!”

“What! Junior Brothers, follow me to assist!”

……

Under Gu Jue’s lead, the disciples of Bi Yan Cave quickly flew out from their ancestral grounds.

Outside, over Ninefold Flower Mountain.

A golden dragon carriage hovered in mid-air, and before it floated a young man with a deep, abyss-like aura.

Behind him stood two similarly powerful old men.

As for Nan Gong Xiu and several elders from Qian Yue Cave, they all stood behind these three.

Opposite them were Mo Wu and Yao Qingtian, and the two sides seemed to be in some form of standoff.

“Mo Wu, Elder Mo, do you really want to interfere in the matters of Ninefold Flower Mountain?” the young man spoke淡ly.

“Young Master Zhu, I have been trapped here for no reason and nearly lost my life, so I naturally want to seek an explanation,” Mo Wu replied coldly with his hands behind his back.

“From Elder Mo’s tone, are you looking for trouble with my Zhu family?” The young man’s expression showed some disdain.

“When did this elder say he wanted to find trouble with your Zhu family! This matter arose because of Nan Gong Xiu; she has repeatedly disrespected me these days, how can I let her off lightly!”

At this moment, Mo Wu’s cultivation had returned, completely different from when he was trapped.

The young man only sneered and, not bothering with Mo Wu for the time being, turned to Yao Qingtian and said, “Yao Qingtian, you know very well that Qian Yue Cave is part of my Zhu family’s influence. How dare you take advantage of numbers to bully the few, and speak insolently!”

Seeing that the young man was unfriendly, Gu Jue instructed from below, “Junior Brothers, stay here and do not make any moves.”

Then, Gu Jue flew up and rushed into the air.

“Young Master Zhu…”

Gu Jue landed beside Yao Qingtian, clasped his hands in salute, and wanted to say a few words.

“Unruly brat, Young Master is talking with your elders; what right do you have to interrupt! Get lost!”

The young man shouted, then flipped his hand down.

A colossal force surged forth, accompanied by the might of the laws, striking fiercely at Gu Jue.

Feeling the terrifying pressure, Gu Jue was immediately stunned and hurriedly urged his sword essence, conjuring eight swords of immortal power around his body as a defense.

“Bang!”

The force instantly crushed Gu Jue’s defensive swords, and his body was struck heavily, plummeting like a meteor towards the ground.

“This person is so strong!”

The young man was able to casually crush Gu Jue, which truly shocked Chen Ansheng below.
