387. Chapter 381 – True Lord of the Outer Flame

Chapter 381 – True Monarch of the Departing Flame
“This is something I don’t agree with… Fellow Daoist Shen has become famous only in recent years, and Fellow Daoist Xu has been famous for a long time… To say great fame, it’s still Fellow Daoist Xu’s fame… However, to say strength, it should be that Fellow Daoist Shen is more superior.”

Ye Hongyao said with a smile.

“False names are of little use, strength is honored in the Immortal Cultivation world, I can’t afford to exterminate the Xuan Yin Ghost Mother with the art of divination.”

Tian Ji Scatterer said.

“Whether it’s Fellow Daoist Shen or Fellow Daoist Xu, they’re both the best amongst the YuanYing cultivators, there’s no need to separate the highs from the lows.”

Lin Qian made a round-up.

Shen Long nodded and said, “Fairy Lin is right, by the way, I want to ask Fellow Daoist Xu for advice on one thing.”

“Fellow Daoist Shen can say anything, Mister Xu knows everything.”

Tianji Diffuser said.

“The art of divination is to peer into the heavens, and the fate of every cultivator is fixed? It can’t be changed? If it’s fixed, there’s no need to cultivate it! It’s in the destiny anyway.”

Shen Long said.

“Diviners are peering into the heavens, but they only know a general idea, people are fixed, depending on the person.”

Tianji scattering people said.

“People are determined to win the heavens? Why do you say it depends on the person again?”

Ye Hongyao was puzzled.

“Some people believe in fate, no matter what he gets or loses, he feels that it is his fate, some people don’t believe in fate, even if it is a sure death situation, he still thinks that he can kill his way out of it, fate is something hard to talk about, that’s why I said that it depends on the person, do you believe in fate, or does it depend on the person?”

Tian Ji Scatterer said slowly, his gaze falling on Shen Long’s body.

“Three parts believe in fate, seven parts believe in yourself, divination or not, imperial beasts or not, they are all just an auxiliary means, throughout the ages, how many God-realizing cultivators have appeared in the Qianyang Realm? Is it possible that every God-realizing cultivator is destined to enter the God-realizing stage? Not really, personal effort cannot be ignored, the heart of the Dao is the most important.”

Shen Long said with a straight face.

“Fellow Daoist Shen, can one walk farther on the immortal path with a firm dao heart? Not really! Some cultivators relied on their ancestors’ remaining shade or got lucky, which allowed them to advance to the YuanYing stage, and they haven’t encountered any major setbacks and advanced to the YuanYing stage as usual.”

A big-bellied, gold-robed old man questioned.

“That’s why I say that I believe in fate three times, there’s a saying in the secular world that there’s no need to turn the pages of the official book in fate, that’s the truth, the class of cultivators who rely on their ancestor’s remaining yin or go through shit before they can be infancy-established are ultimately a minority, the vast number of cultivators don’t have the conditions of these types of cultivators.”

Shen Long stated his opinion.

“Fellow Daoist Shen is right, I agree with Fellow Daoist Shen.”

Ye Hongyao deeply agreed.

The cultivators chatted together, talking about the sky, talking about the Western Desert Immortal Cultivation World, they naturally talked about ghosts and the Xuan Yin Ghost Mother.

“Fellow Daoist Shen, can you take out that spiritual treasure of yours that can lock the location of the Xuan Yin Ghost Mother for everyone to see? It’s actually more powerful than the Ghost Seeking Disk.”

The gold-robed old man said curiously.

“It was destroyed by the Xuan Yin Ghost Mother during the fight.”

Shen Long made up a reason.

Many YuanYing cultivators were curious about this treasure, if they had this treasure in their hands, they could walk horizontally in XuanYin Cave Heaven, Shen Long could only say that this treasure was destroyed.

“That’s a pity, if we had this treasure in our hands, it would be much more convenient to search for treasures in Xuan Yin Cave Heaven.”

Lin Qian said in a regretful tone.

“Fairy Lin, this Ten Thousand Swords Conference, will Senior Lin show up? Will there be a sermon?”

Tian Ji Scattered Man asked curiously.

“I’m not sure about the old ancestor’s movements either, the last time I saw the old ancestor was over a hundred years ago.”

Lin Qian said.

She took out a magic disk with flashing red light and punched in a spell, saying excitedly, “Fellow Daoist Xu has also come over to participate in the Ten Thousand Swords Conference.”

“Fairy Lin, are you talking about True Lord Departing Flame?”

Chu Buyu asked curiously.

“Precisely, Fairy Chu knows Fellow Daoist Xu?”

Lin Qian asked.

Chu Chuanxian nodded and said, “I’ve had a one-sided relationship with Fellow Daoist Xu.”

“True Monarch of Departing Flame! He’s a disciple of the Green Lotus Swordfather! This one is really lively.”

Ye Hongyao said with a smile.

Green Lotus Sword Sovereign was a God Transformation Cultivator, originating from the North Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm, proficient in the art of Royal Sword, and had been famous for many years, and Leaving Flame True Monarch was his disciple.

“Speaking of which, I haven’t seen Fellow Daoist Xu in many years.”

Zhou Hualei said.

Not long after, a stout red-shirted young man walked in, the red-shirted young man was carrying an exquisite red sword case with a crimson flame engraved on the surface of the case, and his body exuded a thick aura of fury.

The red-shirted youth’s gaze quickly swept past the cultivators present and landed on Shen Long’s body.

“Fellow Daoist Xu, long time no see.”

Lin Qian opened his mouth to greet him.

True Lord Li Huo nodded and said at Shen Long, “Your Excellency is Fellow Daoist Shen, right? I’ve heard of Fellow Daoist Shen’s great name for a long time, I wonder if Fellow Daoist Shen is willing to give a lesson or two?”

He had been stuck in a bottleneck for many years, and had been sparring with powerful YuanYing cultivators all these years, and this Ten Thousand Swords Assembly, he had come over to look for an opponent.

Shen Long froze, he did not expect True Lord Li Huo to make this kind of request. “Fellow Daoist Xu, there are so many YuanYing cultivators here, why are you only looking for me to spar,”

Shen Long was puzzled.

“I’ve sparred with Fellow Daoist Zhou, other Fellow Daoists can also spar with me if they are interested.”

True Lord Li Huo’s tone was flat, not putting the others in his eyes at all.

The YuanYing cultivators present looked at each other in disbelief, and no one opened their mouths to answer the challenge.

True Lord Li Huo was the disciple of a God-realizing cultivator and one of the Ten Immortals of the North Sea, his reputation was well known.

“I’m stuck in a bottleneck, and I want to spar with other fellow Daoists to dissolve the bottleneck… No need to misunderstand, Daoist Shen, I have no other intention.”

True Lord Li Huo explained.

“Fellow Daoist Shen and Fellow Daoist Xu are both very strong, and I’m curious to know who’s better.”

An interested expression appeared on Tianji Diffuser’s face.

“Both Fellow Daoist’s divine abilities are not small, so let’s limit it to three moves! This avoids hurting the peace.”

Chu Buyu proposed.

“That’s right, this is better.”

Ye Hongyao deeply agreed.

“That won’t help me much in resolving my bottleneck, this is a fourth-order spirit flame, if Fellow Daoist Shen wins, the item goes to you, if you lose, give me ten bottles of fourth-order pills, how about it?”

True Lord Li Huo took out a jade bottle with flickering green light and said.

“Fourth-order spirit flame!”

The gazes of Ye Hongyao and a number of other YuanYing cultivators became fiery.

Shen Long pondered for a moment and nodded, “Fine! But this isn’t the place to fight, let’s change to another place.”

“There is an open field in the southwest direction outside the workshop market, the two Fellow Daoists can spar and fight there.”

Ye Hongyao said.

“Fellow Daoist Xu, is it true that if I defeat you, I’ll be able to get a fourth-order spirit flame?”

The gold-robed old man spoke.

“Precisely, if you lose, you have to take out the corresponding bet, and you don’t have to take out ordinary things.”

True Lord Li Huo’s tone was calm.

“No problem, I’ll use a fifteen hundred year old Heavenly Soul Spectral Lotus as a bet, how about it?”

The golden-robed old man spoke.

“No problem! Are there any other Daoists who want to participate in the competition?”

True Lord Li Huo looked at the other cultivators.

No one responded, True Lord Departing Fire had been famous for many years and was powerful.

“Alright! Then it’ll be the three of us cutting!”

True Lord Departing Fire said.

They left the marketplace and flew in a southwestern direction, and after flying more than three hundred miles, they appeared over a vast plain.

“Who’s coming first?”

True Lord Li Huo asked.

“I’ll go first!”

The golden-robed old man spoke.

Shen Long and the others retreated to the distance to watch the battle, and the gold-robed elder and the True Lord of Departing Flame were hundreds of feet apart.

“Old man Chen Xin, please teach me, Fellow Daoist Xu.”

After the gold-robed old man said this, he pinched his spell and his body’s golden light blazed out, and a large amount of golden poisonous mist emerged, flooding Chen Xin’s body.

The golden mist tumbled and surged, and a golden hand more than ten feet in size appeared, heading straight for the Departing Flame True Lord.

The right hand of True Lord Li Huo’s right hand was red, and with a chop towards the void, a huge red sword light swept out, chopping the golden hand into two halves, and heading straight towards Chen Xin.

Chen Xin sacrificed a large area of golden light flashing gravel, and with a pinch of his magic skill, the golden gravel violently condensed and transformed into a ten foot long golden giant blade, and met it.

The golden giant blade collided with the red sword light, the latter instantly collapsed, and the golden giant blade chopped towards the Flame Leaving True Lord.

True Lord Li Huo’s sword technique was pinched, and a flying sword with flashing red light flew out from the sword box, with an amazing aura.

“Spiritual Treasure!”

Shen Long frowned, it was impossible for the sword box to contain only one Spiritual Treasure level flying sword, it seemed that True Lord Li Huo possessed sets of Spiritual Treasures, worthy of being the disciple of a God Transformation Cultivator.

The red flying sword collided with the golden giant blade, a muffled sound of gold and iron striking was emitted, the latter instantly collapsed and turned into a large swath of golden gravel, the golden gravel violently condensed and wrapped around the red flying sword, which rose in a puff of green smoke.

Off the fire true gentleman sword skill change, the red flying sword of the spirit of light, surging out a large red flame, golden gravel off, red flying sword straight to Chen Xin.

The red flying sword did not enter the golden mist, just like mud entering the sea.

The golden mist tumbled and surged, a golden arrow shot out, at the same time, away from the fire true monarch’s head of the void ripples, a huge golden dragon claw appeared, face to face shot down, there will be away from the fire true monarch pinched into smithereens of the situation.
