Ten Thousand Sword Masters

Zhong Yang suddenly drew his sword and thrust it at Chou Jianyou, who gracefully floated backward.

"Brother Zhong, why do you do this? Even if we disagree, we can sit down and talk things over."

Zhong Yang coldly replied, "Those who walk different paths cannot make plans together. I, Zhong Yang, neither seek anything from heaven nor earth. I will walk my own path and have no need for others to point fingers at me."

Upon hearing Zhong Yang's words, Chou Jianyou realized he couldn't be fooled so easily. His expression changed, and he said seriously, "It seems that you and I must have a battle."

Clang!

As soon as Chou Jian finished speaking, a long sword flew out of the book box behind him and landed in his hand.

"Brother Zhong's swordsmanship is quite poor. Let me teach you."

As Chou Jianyou spoke, his daggers flashed like flowers, blocking Zhong Yang's entire attack route.

"Use the sword as you would your arm, follow your heart, and you will be invincible." Ugly Jianyou did not think Zhong Yang was his match at all. While attacking, he also jokingly pointed out Zhong Yang's sword skills.

Zhong Yang was furious and immediately summoned the Wind Eagle.

Riding a wind eagle, soaring through the air, attacking Ushimi Yu from all sides.

Ugly Jianyou never expected that Zhong Yang would have a flying beast. He was not yet able to fly, so he could not attack Zhong Yang on the ground and had to face Zhong Yang's attacks. He was very annoyed.

You must know that Zhong Yang has the Wind Eagle, which can kill with overwhelming force. There's no way Zhong Yang would have the chance to summon the Wind Eagle.

blah blah blah!

Attacking Ushimi in mid-air renders even the most exquisite swordsmanship useless; he'll be lucky to even withstand Zhong Yang's attack.

Clang!

Chou Jianyou blocked Zhong Yang's sword.

laugh!

However, Zhong Yang immediately turned around and attacked while riding his Wind Eagle, his longsword slicing through Chou Jianyou's arm.

Ding Ding Deng!

Ugly Jianyou hurriedly took a few steps back, and Zhong Yang immediately rode his Wind Eagle and charged forward.

"Hmph, Zhong Yang, there's plenty of time in the future."

Suddenly, Chou Jianyou threw out a bead, which produced a thick cloud of smoke.

Zhong Yang immediately rode his Wind Eagle to the highest point, where nothing could be seen in the thick smoke, to prevent Chou Jian from attacking him.

However, as the thick smoke dissipated, Chou Jian disappeared without a trace.

Back on the ground, Zhong Yang put away the Wind Eagle and surveyed his surroundings.

He picked up some papers from the ground. One of the papers was titled "Nine Heavens Suppressing Fate Method," and below it were some expositions.

Zhong Yang hurriedly gathered the papers and discovered that this was the first part of the "Nine Heavens Suppressing Fate Method," which seemed to be somewhat incomplete, and Chou Jianyou was discussing and revising it.

However, the contents recorded on these papers are sufficient. They can not only allow Lin Weizhen's consciousness to return to her original body, but also transfer human consciousness into the body of a demon beast. Basically, the Nine Heavens Suppressing Life Technique has all the functions, albeit incomplete and with some flaws.

After putting away the papers, Zhong Yang began searching for Lin Weizhen's body.

Not long after the search began, Zhong Yang found a bronze coffin containing Lin Weizhen's body.

Carefully lifting Lin Weizhen's body, Zhong Yang walked back the way he came.

"The Lord has returned."

The crowd waiting there was in an uproar when they saw Zhong Yang return carrying a body.

"My daughter, my daughter!" Lin Youzhi rushed to Zhong Yang, took Lin Weizhen's body from Zhong Yang's arms, and burst into tears.

Nie Da'er and the others looked at Zhong Yang with admiration. They knew that the demonic cultivator was no ordinary person, yet Zhong Yang still managed to bring back Lin Weizhen's body.

"Your Excellency, you are truly amazing. You even managed to defeat that demonic cultivator." Nie Da'er said tentatively, wanting to know how Zhong Yang managed to bring Lin Weizhen out of her body.

Zhong Yang laughed and casually made up a lie: "How could I possibly defeat that demonic cultivator? When I arrived, he was practicing his martial arts. When I launched a fierce attack, he hurriedly dispersed his power and even suffered a qi deviation, spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood before fleeing."

Hearing Zhong Yang's words, Nie Da'er and the other two secretly lamented their loss.

"Oh dear, I should have gone with you," Duan Chu said regretfully.

"This is also due to the Lord's luck. If we had gone there more often, the demonic cultivators would have discovered it earlier, and perhaps they wouldn't have suffered a qi deviation."

"Absolutely, absolutely."

Lin Youzhi held Lin Weizhen's body and cried bitterly. Tianjinghu looked at his original body and felt flustered and helpless.

"My Lord, how do I return to my senses?"

Zhong Yang couldn't say it in front of everyone, that he needed to learn the Nine Heavens Suppressing Life Technique before he could let her consciousness return to her body.

"If you stay with your body for a long time, you will naturally return to your original state."

"How long will it take?"

"Just a few days."

Lin Youzhi calmed himself down and expressed his deepest gratitude to Zhong Yang.

Amidst the celebration, the group emerged from the underground palace.

As soon as they stepped out, everyone stopped.

Three demonic beasts appeared ahead; they were the nine-horned golden sheep, the nameless demonic beast, and the centaur that Zhong Yang had encountered earlier.

Zhong Yang took a deep breath and stepped out of the crowd.

"May I ask what brings you three seniors here?"

Seeing Zhong Yang's nervous expression, the three beasts laughed and said, "Don't worry, we're not here to stop you. It's just that our master has escaped and his whereabouts are unknown. We figured he would come looking for you someday, so we came here to travel with you."

Hearing this, Zhong Yang was overjoyed. He had the Nine Heavens Suppressing Fate Technique in his pocket. As long as he learned it, he could also control these demonic beasts.

"Welcome, welcome!" Zhong Yang shouted enthusiastically.

The three beasts peacefully joined the team, and everyone was happy.

At this moment, Nie Da'er suggested, "We've come all this way to Dianyun Mountain, and I haven't seen the famous Cross Stele yet!"

Duan Chu also said, "To my shame, this famous cross stele is so close by, yet I never came to see it."

Hearing the two talking, Lin Youzhi finally felt a little happy. "I have to say, this cross-shaped monument is really imposing."

This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content!

At this point, someone asked what was written on the cross stele, but Lin Youzhi pretended to be mysterious and refused to tell.

Zhong Yang had read some unofficial history about the cross stele and knew which ten characters were engraved on it, but he didn't say them. He followed the others up to the top of the mountain.

With their large numbers and the presence of three powerful beasts, not a single monster appeared along the way.

Upon reaching the mountaintop, the group saw a man in white sitting cross-legged in front of a monument, seemingly comprehending something.

No one dared to speak up and disturb them, inexplicably intimidated by the man's imposing presence.

The group proceeded cautiously, and upon reaching the monument, they saw the cross and exclaimed in surprise.

"The way of Heaven is to take from those who have too much and give to those who have too little!"

Although Zhong Yang had seen these ten characters in unofficial histories, seeing them in person, left behind by the legendary figure Ping Yuan, brought an inexplicable and overwhelming feeling that surged through his soul.

What is the Way of Heaven?

Zhong Yang could hardly believe it; this seemed to be a profound truth that Ping Yuan had comprehended, a truth that transcended the comprehension of ordinary people.

There is something undifferentiated and complete, which existed before Heaven and Earth. Silent and still, it stands alone and unchanging, ever-present and inexhaustible. It can be regarded as the mother of Heaven and Earth. I do not know its name, so I call it the Way, and I give it the name Great.

In this world, destiny is spoken of more than anything. Destiny is predetermined and cannot be changed. Where destiny leads, so too does the will of the people.

Destiny is not something everyone can pursue; it is fixed and innate.

Pingyuan seeks the Great Dao, a Dao that seems to be something everyone can pursue.

Zhong Yang even had a vague feeling that this inexplicable thing could transcend destiny!

Zhong Yang felt an unprecedented shock, realizing that he had been like a frog in a well before, and that he was only now opening his eyes to the world.

I like the Ten Thousand Swords Master.
