Invincible Kungfu Healer

Chapter 1036: Blood-Colored Battle God

Most of the time, the Jade Xiu King and the rest of them did not have much to say to Mo Yuqing because she was simply too haughty. That was just how the Divine Dragon Clan was.

Mo Wen appeared on the city walls that protected the palace and looked at Gu Jingman in the air. He felt rather relieved. No one had expected that the Gu Jingman of the past was able to make it this far. Although he had a part to play in that as well, Gu Jingman’s personal luck had been rather crucial too.

Had Gu Jingman not saved the woman from the Blood Clan in Fu Sang country that year, she would probably not be where she was today.

From up in the sky, Gu Jingman’s long hair floated and extended all the way below her toes. Her blood-red hair was just like silk—gorgeous and beautiful. As for her eyes, they were much more beautiful than the most precious ruby in the world; her crystalline pupils reflected a blood-colored world in them.

Her cultivation was unceasingly climbing. She had long broken through to the Tide Changing Realm, and kept climbing it without stop—the Tide Changing preliminary stage, then the preliminary stage pinnacle, then the Tide Changing intermediary stage, then the intermediary stage pinnacle, then the Tide Changing later stage, then the later stage pinnacle.

It finally slowed when she reached the Tide Changing later stage pinnacle, slowing and slowing, as though she was only one step away from the threshold. However, that last step seemed impossible to take no matter how she tried.

But just as Gu Jingman was about to stop altogether, the sky fell dark and started changing strangely.

A terrifying aura, like a heavenly force, started spreading. Initially, it had only been in the far distance, but it pervaded the sky above Intentionless City in a second.

...

“What’s that?”

Mo Wen’s face hardened over, his eyes looked stern as he looked at the sky. That aura was too terrifying, so there was no way that was the aura of a regular cultivator. Besides, that person was really audacious to let his aura bear down like that. They were not scrupulous at all, so it was obvious they did not care much about Intentionless City.

“Huh? A cultivator at the Supreme Profundity Realm. Not just that, the aura doesn’t seem like it’s only at the Supreme Profundity preliminary stage. The cultivator is at least at the Supreme Profundity intermediary stage.”

The Ink Scaled King’s face froze. That was a terrifying force that far surpassed his expectations. Such a huge power existed in a space as small as the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension—was it someone from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm?

Half a month had passed since that wave of attack in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Since that time, the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension had been especially quiet and no one had dared start trouble again. But everyone in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension knew that the quieter everything was, the more terrifying the next storm would be.

Half a month ago, so many people had died in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension that it was impossible for the big sects of the Peng Lai Immortal Realm to turn a blind eye to it. It went without saying that their animosity had only exacerbated. Even if it were for the sake of their pride, for them to save their reputation, there was no way the big sects could let them go. How embarrassing it would be if word got out that the mighty big sects of the Peng Lai Immortal Realm had suffered a total loss in such a tiny mystery dimension. They would become the butt of all jokes, no?

This was the reality of it. The incident from half a month ago had already caused huge waves in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm and shook things up in many of the big sects.

Even disregarding the sects that had grudges against Mo Wen, there were other unrelated sects that had started taking notice of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. A sect that could kill Tide Changing cultivators as they wished was not a small sect, not even in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm.

“That person is likely a cultivator at the Supreme Profundity intermediary stage. That aura is rather terrifying, so it’s likely they’re nearing the Supreme Profundity later stage,” the Jade Xiu King said with a stern face. This was also his first time encountering a person with such high cultivation.

The person had just stepped into the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension and had not reached the Intentionless City yet, but that aura had already caused his body to tense up and the power in it to flow slower. One could only imagine how terrifying the person was.

Even Mo Yuqing, someone of the Divine Dragon Clan, looked at the sky. Her crystalline eyes glinted somewhat coldly and sternly, but her face was arrogant as always, not betraying any trace of emotions.

“The Green Ancient Mystery Dimension is great, to think such people exist here. You’re wasting your talents by staying in such a small mystery dimension, lady, so why not acknowledge me as your master? I guarantee you’ll become an unparalleled cultivator.”

A strange voice rang out in the entire Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. As it spoke, a figure arrived in the sky above Intentionless City. For a cultivator of this level, the distance to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension was no distance at all; they could move anywhere they so pleased with just a single thought.

That person was an old man who had short stature and a head of white hair. What was strange about him was that his eyebrows were black and rather dense. He held in his hand a walking cane, but an old sword was on his back. He had a rather strange get-up.

He fixed his gaze on Gu Jingman the moment he appeared. Something strange flashed in his eyes

“That’s the leader of the Sword Valley, that’s Old Man Xuan You! Good God, what’s he doing here?”

“Old Man Xuan You. The first cultivator of the Sword Valley, Old Man Xuan You, is actually here in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Oh my God, this is too much. Old Man Xuan You is a giant even in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm, he exists at the peak of the pyramid.”

“Old Man Xuan You is here in person, haha, the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension is doomed for real this time. The people here were too arrogant—the audacity of them to challenge our sects from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm.”

...

A lot of spies and scouts hid in Intentionless City and these people were rather discreet. They blended in with the crowds and not even Mo Wen had been able to weed out every single one of them. As cultivators from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm, it was only natural that they could tell who the old man was with just one look. This was the leader of the Sword Valley— cultivators from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm who did not know about him were few and far between.

“Lady, I’m the leader of the Sword Valley. You might not know who I am now but you will soon, and you’ll find out I’m much stronger compared to your master. Besides, if you become my disciple, I can guarantee that you’ll be the next leader of the Sword Valley.”

Old Man Xuan You stroked his beard with one hand, trying his best to smile gently. His eyes were sweeping up and down Gu Jingman’s body and they gave off a terrifying glow.

Anyone could tell that Old Man Xuan You was blissful, and even agitated, as though he had seen a rare treasure. He was in a highly charged state.

A superb rank! The best in the world! It was probably rare to find a person with a superb rank like this in the entire Peng Lai Immortal Realm. Old Man Xuan You had never thought that he would encounter such an unmatched superb rank in a corner as desolate as this. That aura was simply too holy—just what could have given rise to such a lady?

Originally, he had no other expectations for his path of cultivation in this life. He knew his own capabilities fully well, so he would only make it as far as to the Supreme Profundity later stage. He did not even dare to think of achieving great attainment of the Supreme Profundity Realm; even the Divine Illusionary realm was not something he had even dreamed of.

It was too difficult to raise his cultivation anymore, especially now that it was already at the Supreme Profundity Realm. Unless they had a big chance or a lucky break, most people would be stuck in that bottleneck for the rest of their lives.

However, if he had the assistance of the rare treasure in front of his eyes, he would be confident of breaking through to the legendary Divine Illusionary realm, much less merely a great attainment of the Supreme Profundity Realm.

It had been thousands of years since the Peng Lai Immortal Realm had last seen a Divine Illusionary realm cultivator. The next one might be him.

“You old thing, you look at me one more time and I’ll gouge your eyes out,” Gu Jingman frowned and said in a cold tone.

The gaze of that old thing was intrusive all over and just the sight of it irked her. She wanted nothing more than to dig his eyes out.

Old Man Xuan You’s face froze. As a powerful cultivator in the Supreme Profundity intermediary stage, he had made her such great promises, and yet not only did she ignore him, he also insulted him.

As powerful as he was, it seemed like just about any ordinary person was insulting him. In an instant, the entire dimension fell quiet and the atmosphere seemed to change greatly under the influence of Old Man Xuan You’s emotions. Raging winds appeared out of nowhere and snow fell from the skies, causing the temperature to drop drastically.

A lot of people in Intentionless City were scared out of their wits. Had she grown sick of living, talking back to Old Man Xuan You like this?

“What do we do? The goddess has angered Old Man Xuan You.”

“That d*mned Old Man Xuan You, how could he bully such a pretty fairy? But what do we do now? Old Man Xuan You is too strong, there’s no way we can stop him.”

‘We’re doomed, we’re doomed. A lot of the cultivators from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm know what kind of person he is, and the goddess will be doomed for sure if she lands in his hands. Is this what they mean when they say heaven envies the beautiful?”

...

Cries poured out from within Intentionless City. Quite a number of the cultivators from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm knew he was no decent person, not even by the standards of the heretic factions. He had cultivated specific heretic techniques used to harm women, and there was simply no telling how many women had been killed by him in the past years.

But something like this, although common knowledge, was not something many people spoke about much. It was because Old Man Xuan You was simply too terrifying and not many people in the entire Peng Lai Immortal Realm had dared offend him.

“What did you say?” Old Man Xuan You’s voice was like the cold breeze below the Nine Hells, cutting deep into the bone.

Gu Jingman was expressionless as always. She said coldly, “In your old age, why do you insist on making people this disgusted, you old thing? Did you mention that you want to take me as your disciple? Stop disgusting me. Please turn your vile gaze away from me.”

Gu Jingman genuinely detested Old Man Xuan You’s stare. It discomforted her greatly to feel his gaze on her. It was as if something dirty and revolting had covered her body. In one sentence, he was just too d*mn revolting.

Any woman would be revolted by that gaze. It was simply too evil.

Old Man Xuan You broke out into laughter suddenly. He said, “Alright, that’s good. I didn’t think you’d have much of a character on you. You think I’m disgusting and hateful, don’t you? Alright! I’ll disgust you even more in the future, make you hate me even more...”

Peals of evil laughter sent chills down everyone’s spines. In the next instant, the entire dimension trembled. Shortly after, a large hand appeared right in front of Gu Jingman, dragging her violently. The sky fell dark and it seemed like it was warping. It was impossible to block that claw.

Gu Jingman had been wary from the start, so she could respond to it immediately. She knew the old thing was scary, so she had never belittled him. In almost a split-second, a blood light glowed on her body. The blood light was like crystal glass, exceptionally holy.

Old Man Xuan You’s one hand was, certainly, impossible to block, and no Tide Changing cultivator could block it. But Gu Jingman escaped from his hand; she did not resist but disappeared from the place altogether. The place she had stood at turned into blood-colored crystals that were crushed by the large claw in an instant.

And Gu Jingman’s figure had already disappeared into the distance.

“Huh, it’s the Substitution Escape technique.”

Old Man Xuan You looked towards Gu Jingman in shock. This woman had actually managed to cultivate the secret technique of Substitution Escape. This was a rare technique, one that not even he had cultivated.

Gu Jingman extended an arm, her face devoid of emotions, and a blood-colored spear appeared in her hand. At the same time, beams of blood light seeped out from her body to form an intricate battle armor over it. The design was simple but effective and beautiful. It clung to Gu Jingman’s body in all the right places and made her look exceptionally tempting, even more charming.

At the same time, her aura continued growing rapidly. Her hair was as long as a dragon and fluttered about as if it had its own mind. Gu Jingman’s cultivation had stopped earlier but, under the pressure of Old Man Xuan You, it took another step forth and broke through to the great attainment of the Tide Changing Realm in an instant.

She gripped the spear and looked at Old Man Xuan You as she took one step after another, her battle spirit was clear. It looked like she was ready to fight him.

Old Man Xuan You looked at Gu Jingman in shock. This beautiful woman was not ordinary, indeed. Her cultivation had made another breakthrough. That battle armor and spear of hers, too, did not look simple. It seemed like her entire body was cloaked in a vague, hazy sense of mystery. The more women were like this, the more it excited Old Man Xuan You. His desire to conquer grew stronger, he wanted to make her his.
