2025-01-01 16:38:25At that crucial moment, when the tip of Malakai Yan's sword seemed about to split Eadric Rong's body in two, there was suddenly a loud noise.
KRAK!
With unbelievable speed, a pebble bounced off and struck his sword.
"Ouch!" Malakai Yan winced in pain.
When the stone touched his sword, he felt electricity sting his hand, jolting his heartbeat. His sword slipped out and fell, clinking to the ground.
A moment later, Malakai Yan raised his head and looked for who did that. "Who dares to stand in my way? Come out and show yourself! We'll fight to the finish!" His voice was full of arrogance.
Malakai Yan dared to act as he pleased all this time because he relied on his father, the deputy leader of the Wudang Sect. So, no one dared to challenge him.
The atmosphere became quiet, with only the wind rustling.
Not long after, a man around thirty-two years old emerged from behind a rock. His face was solemn, and he was wearing the clothes and robes commonly worn by elders in the Wudang Sect.
His name was Juric Teng. He was an elder in charge of the outer court disciples. Like most elders in the sect, he was a Taoist priest.
Behind Priest Juric Teng, a girl stood somewhat timidly. Her name was Millie Xiao. She was 9 years old and an outer court disciple. She was the niece of Priest Juric Teng and a close friend of Eadric Rong.
In fact, Millie Xiao reported this incident to Priest Juric Teng, the elder in the outer court.
Elder Juric Teng looked at Malakai Yan with bright eyes. "I did that. I deliberately used a pebble to stop you!" Priest Teng said in a cold voice.
Malakai Yan immediately lowered his head after hearing the elder's sharp words. Although Malakai Yan was a disciple of the deputy sect leader, he had to be obedient in the presence of an elder, especially since he had just almost killed Eadric Rong.
"Malakai Yan, inner court disciple! Listen to me!" said Elder Juric Teng sternly, sounding like a judge giving a verdict.
"As an outer court elder, according to my knowledge, disciples in this sect are not allowed to commit acts of murder when dueling between fellow disciples.
But just now, I saw that you used a first-rate technique to attack an outer court disciple who did not have the same ability level as you!" His voice was full of judgment.
"Moreover, you are an inner court disciple who is superior in skills and knowledge. Tell me, what is your reason for coming to the outer court disciples' place and even attempting to injure one of them?"
Malakai Yan's face paled; he was obviously struggling to control his anger. He felt that Elder Juric Teng's interference was excessive. "Isn't this a matter between fellow disciples? How could that old man interfere?"
Although Malakai Yan was about to refute, the last words of Elder Juric Teng made him restrain himself.
"I wonder how the Deputy Sect Leader, Mr. Caleb Yan, would react if he heard this report. His son almost caused harm to an outer court disciple..." The atmosphere became quiet.
Elder Juric Teng's sharp words eased the anger and resentment in Malakai Yan's heart. He was afraid of the threat conveyed by this elder. Malakai Yan often got into trouble, and the last incident when he bullied an outer court disciple made his father very angry, even threatening to expel him from the sect.

Two Years Later – Part II
Uncle Wu joined in embracing Rong Tian, trying to comfort him with trembling hands. "Your father is fine, don't worry," he said, though his voice sounded forced and his eyes could not meet Rong Tian's piercing gaze.This dramatic scene did not go unnoticed by the five guards stationed at the Deputy Minister's house. They wore leather armor reinforced with metal studs, their hands resting casually on sword hilts as they observed the reunion.They were newcomers, unfamiliar with Rong Tian's identity or his connection to the household. However, their gazes were unfriendly, as if there was a hidden story that made them suspicious of any unexpected visitors.Rong Tian paid no attention to their hostile stares, his focus solely on the two elderly servants he respected. Their reaction told him that something had changed dramatically during his long absence from the mortal world."I want to see my father. Where is he?" Rong Tian asked firmly, his voice carrying an authority that made the air

The very foundations of righteous cultivation seemed to tremble like leaves in an autumn storm.The name of the mysterious figure known as the Bat King echoed everywhere, becoming the topic of conversation on everyone's lips.

Even in places of entertainment and houses of pleasure, where
Absolute Victory- Part II.
The situation descended into chaos. No one was prepared to face the army of undead whose strength far exceeded their expectations.The usually calm and disciplined cultivators now looked panicked, their steps disordered, and their defenses beginning to crumble.“Look at the sword!” Elder Duan Meng suddenly shouted, throwing an amulet into the sky.The amulet exploded in a flash of green light, transforming into a large, glittering jade sword. The sword looked heavy, but its movements were so swift it seemed to have a life of its own.“Kill that cursed undead!” Duan Meng commanded in a loud voice. He spat spiritual energy toward the jade sword. In an instant, the jade sword shot forward at a speed invisible to the naked eye.SRRT!The body of one of the undead creatures was split in two, collapsing onto the sandy ground and remaining motionless. Duan Meng smiled triumphantly, his face radiating victory. “Just a simple demonic technique—how dare you try to oppose the Pure Sky Sect!”How
Absolute Victory- Part I.
“There’s no one here. We’ve been here for the duration of a joss stick. Where are the undead you mentioned?” Elder Duan Meng’s expression was gloomy, his face as cold as jade.With a sneer on his lips, his eyes narrowed sharply as he glared at Mo Zhengsheng with disdain, causing Mo Zhengsheng's heart to sink.The disciples of the Pure Sky Tao Sect standing behind him also cast disdainful glances. The bone-chilling night air of the Hadarac Desert made everyone feel uneasy.How much better it would be to choose to lie under a thick blanket, enjoying the warmth after a day of intense training within the sect.However, now they were forced to stand in the middle of the dark desert, waiting for something that might only be a figment of Mo Zhengsheng's imagination, so many of them glanced at him with contempt."Yes, that's right. We've been here for almost an hour, but not a single undead has appeared. Did you really experience that? Or is this just a trick of yours?" Elder Fan Liu, who was

The Night of the Attack.
The young man sat cross-legged in the dark and damp cave, a place that had long served as his sanctuary in the treacherous Abyss of Suffering. The dim light from the oil lamp flickered against the rough stone walls, casting dancing shadows that moved like restless spirits across the ancient rock formations.Before him lay an old book whose leather cover had been worn smooth by countless years of handling. The musty scent of aged parchment filled the air, mingling with the dampness that clung to every surface of the cave.The book contained the sacred legacy of the demonic cultivation heir, a precious inheritance he had studied with unwavering dedication since discovering this hidden refuge. Each page whispered secrets of power that could either elevate a cultivator to immortality or destroy them completely.Rong Tian flipped through the yellowed pages with reverent care, his keen eyes scanning every word and mystical symbol inscribed there.
