Immortality Starts With Ignorant Heart Sword Art

Chapter 242: The High Morale of the Cloud Firmament Sect (Please Subscribe)

Zhong Cang marveled at the overwhelming power of the Invincible Path.

But in reality, the oppressive momentum was not as strong as Zhong Cang had imagined.

At least, the others couldn't instantly kill their enemies with a single sword sound, like Zhong Cang could.

After all, if it were someone else, they wouldn't have Zhong Cang's ability to convey meaning through sound, let alone the Eye of the Hell King.

They couldn't instantly kill with a single strike, nor could they directly collide souls. Such mental oppression would at most make people dizzy for one to three breaths.

Moreover, most cultivators at the Foundation Building Stage had shield spells or defensive Law Treasures that could be activated in response. In just one or two breaths, it was difficult for cultivators to kill their opponents.

And even if cultivators had the Eye of the Hell King, normally speaking, this Eye of the Hell King wouldn't be so dominant.

After all, only by understanding death could Zhong Cang see through it with the Eye of the Hell King.

Therefore, from a general rational perspective, after obtaining the Eye of the Hell King, Zhong Cang needed to stare at the enemy tightly, for several breaths or even a while, in order to see their death line.

Some special enemies or powerful and smooth spells couldn't even be seen by Zhong Cang with his current cultivation and comprehension.

However, there were no ifs.

With the sword sound conveying meaning and the Eye of the Hell King, Zhong Cang had the possibility of instantly killing Foundation Building cultivators.

And during his advancement, Zhong Cang had glimpsed a core secret of the gray mist with a thousand times his usual comprehension, witnessing the end and death of an entire world.

In that world, the land dried up, the sea stank, and countless lives were wiped out. Even natural phenomena like wind, rain, and thunder fell into annihilation.

With everything perishing, Zhong Cang, who had glimpsed this scene, gained a rapid understanding of death.

Therefore, now, ordinary cultivators and spells didn't need Zhong Cang to deliberately gaze at them. With just a glance, he could see the death line of his enemies.

And it was the combination of these circumstances that allowed Zhong Cang to instantly kill Foundation Building cultivators.

...

On this side, Zhong Cang sighed unconsciously.

Meanwhile, the higher-ups of the Blood Sea Sect were in a dilemma.

At this moment, Zhong Cang was killing their Foundation Building cultivators as easily as slaughtering chickens.

And Foundation Building was the foundation of a sect. The Blood Sea Sect obviously couldn't let Zhong Cang continue to kill indiscriminately.

But if they didn't fight back, they would completely lose face.

And face was very important for a major sect.

Face was equivalent to the deterrent power of a sect. A sect with deterrence would find it much easier to handle matters, and no one would dare to provoke their disciples.

Therefore, a strong "face" would reduce many troubles for a sect.

However, after considering it, the Sect Master of the Blood Sea Sect, Li Xiu, decided to sacrifice their face.

It wasn't that they were foolish, but they had no choice.

"By sacrificing our face, we can at least preserve the essence. But if we let our disciples continue to challenge Zhong Cang for the sake of face, we will likely lose both the essence and the face."

After making the decision, the expression of Li Xiu, the Sect Master of the Blood Sea Sect, suddenly changed from profound to gentle.

"To be able to comprehend the domain that can only be understood by those who have reached the Mid-Foundation Building stage and even cause the descent of Thunder Tribulation, my nephew truly deserves to be called a once-in-a-millennium genius. In this competition, the younger generation of my Blood Sea Sect is slightly inferior."

"..."

"..."

"..."

The admission of defeat by Li Xiu brought silence to the world.

For a long moment, there was no sound at the scene.

After a while, there were some incredulous exclamations from the Cloud Firmament Sect.

"Although I thought that the young disciples of the Blood Sea Sect were no match for Zhong Cang, I didn't expect them to actually admit defeat."

"What else can they do if they don't admit defeat? Send more Foundation Building disciples to fight?"

"That's impossible. Foundation Building disciples are completely powerless against Zhong Cang. No matter how many they send, it would be a futile sacrifice..."

"One person suppressing an entire sect. I never thought I would witness the birth of a legend today."

"The Cloud Firmament Sect has gained this time!"

Amidst the discussions, murmurs filled the Cloud Firmament Sect venue.

At the same time, many cultivators were shocked, incredulous, amazed, admiring, or even fearful of Zhong Cang's victory.

The sound of swords resonated, and Foundation Building cultivators fell. Zhong Cang's strength exceeded human imagination, naturally causing people's hearts to tremble.

They couldn't help but imagine the horror of opposing Zhong Cang.

Just as Zhong Cang had said before, after today, that clear and melodious sword resonance would become the inner demon of many people.

And the powerful Zhong Cang also brought benefits to the Cloud Firmament Sect.

Originally, many independent cultivators or cultivators from small clans responded to the Cloud Firmament Sect's call, but their intention was to enter the mortal realm and desperately collect resources, regardless of the conflict between the Cloud Firmament Sect and the Demon Sect.

"They fight their battles, and we collect our resources."

"What if the Cloud Firmament Sect blames us?"

"What can we do? Apologize or run away. After all, the main enemy of the Cloud Firmament Sect is the Demon Sect. As long as we don't kill the disciples of the Cloud Firmament Sect, they won't pursue us too much."

Thinking that the Cloud Firmament Sect couldn't afford to be distracted and fearing the power and terror of the Demon Sect, these independent cultivators originally had the idea of benefiting without putting in much effort.

But now, Zhong Cang's strength has changed their minds.

"Cough, think about it carefully. The Demon Sect is cruel and ruthless, and they are outsiders. If we let them occupy the mortal realm, it won't be good for us either. Everyone, let's stick with the Cloud Firmament Sect."

"But, Master, didn't you say before that the Demon Sect is cruel and not easy to offend..."

"Smack!"

"You talk too much. So what if the Demon Sect is cruel? Can you defeat Zhong Cang?"

There was another sentence that the cunning master of the independent cultivators didn't say.

If they couldn't defeat the Demon Sect, they definitely couldn't defeat Zhong Cang either.

Feeling that the Cloud Firmament Sect still had some strength left, he didn't want to be pursued by them and could only fight desperately.

...

Most of the battles in the mortal realm are between Foundation Building and Qi Refining cultivators.

Zhong Cang's overwhelming victory over a sect greatly boosted the morale of the Cloud Firmament Sect. With his own strength, he managed to reverse the slightly declining situation of the sect.

Seeing this scene, Tao, a Perfected Being on the high platform, smiled.

"It's done!"

Tao was excited, but as a knowledgeable Gold Core Perfected Being, even though he was delighted in his heart, his facial expression remained calm.

However, there was another person in the audience who couldn't maintain such composure.

"Ah ah ah..."

As the Blood Sea Sect's sect master admitted defeat, a voice filled with excitement and unable to make any sound echoed in the circle of Gold Core ladies.

The tranquility they were in was disrupted by such noise, and the one making the noise was the "servant" they looked down upon. This caused the expressions of many ladies in the circle to turn cold.

However, considering that this servant was brought in by a noble lady in the circle, even though some people were annoyed, they couldn't say anything.

Some people cared about Zhen Ji's face, while others didn't care much.

"Zhen Ji, manage your..."

At this moment, a lady of the same status as Yan Lingdie's mother, Zhen Ji, spoke up, intending to let Zhen Ji take care of her own people.

However, before she could finish speaking, the "servant" finally calmed down from her excitement and spoke the words in her mouth.

"That's Cang'er, that's my Cang'er!"

"?!!"

These words made the expressions of the ladies in the circle freeze, and their pupils contracted.

The Gold Core lady who was about to scold Liu Qin immediately changed her attitude, speaking in a somewhat gentle tone, "Sister, what is your relationship with Zhong Cang?"

"He is my nephew..."

After saying that, Liu Qin immediately changed her words, "Cang'er's parents passed away earlier due to some accidents, and he has always been taken care of by my... my husband. Since there is only him as the only male in both our families, his status at home is even higher than my own daughter Yingying. My husband and I have always treated him as our own son."

"Sister, you must have worked hard."

"So it was Sister who raised Zhong Cang. No wonder he is so powerful. There must be credit for Sister in this!"

"Sister, since you are so good at educating children, you must come to my place more often and teach me how to educate my sister..."

When one person achieves success, even the lowliest can ascend to heaven.

At this moment, this phrase is best demonstrated.

With Zhong Cang displaying his overwhelming strength, anyone with a brain can understand that Zhong Cang will undoubtedly become a high-ranking member of the sect, even the sect master, and even have a chance to reach Soul Formation.

Such a Zhong Cang can maintain a family for a thousand years without decline.

At this moment, Zhong Cang's status is already higher than some Gold Core cultivators within the sect.

With Zhong Cang's strength, the position of Zhong Kangping and his wife, who are his only and closest relatives, naturally rises as well.

As their status rises, the tolerance of others towards them has also changed.

Not familiar with etiquette? That's just being unconcerned about trivial matters!

At this moment, these Gold Core Perfected Beings have gathered around Liu Qin, complimenting her in various ways.

There are also many people who are desperately pulling Liu Qin to their homes as guests.

This is not only to establish a good relationship with Zhong Cang through Liu Qin, but also to hope for a marriage alliance with Zhong Cang through her.

After discovering that Zhong Cang is not yet twenty years old this year and does not have a legal wife, the eyes of these Gold Core ladies have turned green.

"If Zhong Cang were from my family, our family's position within the sect would definitely rise several levels. With an increase in status and resources, my cultivation, strength, and lifespan would also grow."

"However, Zhong Cang belongs to the Zhong family, so it's basically impossible for him to change his surname. But it doesn't matter, as the saying goes, a son-in-law is half a son. If I become in-laws with the Zhong family, I can also benefit from his strength..."

...

In the past life, some people regarded power and wealth as worthless because they cannot be brought into the afterlife.

But in this life, resources can enhance cultivation, cultivation can increase lifespan, and immortality is almost everyone's desire, so no one doesn't care about it.

Forming a marriage alliance with Zhong Cang can easily allow them to obtain these things, so their behavior naturally becomes somewhat crazy.

...

Zhong Cang is unaware of the scene where his aunt Liu Qin and Zhong Kangping are being complimented. At this moment, he is being led by Qingqiu Shangren, flying towards another sect.

As they watched his departing figure, the Gold Core Perfected Beings in the Blood Sea Sect all had deep gazes.

After a while, someone approached the sect master and asked him.

"Sect Master, should we..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but the sect master and the surrounding Gold Core Perfected Beings understood his meaning.

Obviously, they wanted to intercept Zhong Cang halfway and eliminate Cloud Firmament Sect's most outstanding genius in advance.

In response, the sect master, Li Xiu, sneered.

"I didn't expect you to be foolish enough to make a move within the sect."

"Uh..."

This remark made many Gold Core elders feel embarrassed.

Just now, Zhong Cang's arrogance had displeased some people, and as a result, they had considered joining forces to kill Zhong Cang with their Nascent Souls.

However, even just thinking about such behavior felt extremely foolish.

Even if they were to take action, they couldn't do it in front of the Blood Sea Gate. They wanted to have an all-out war with the Cloud Firmament Sect.

If they really wanted to kill Zhong Cang, it would be best to do it secretly.

And now, this is the best opportunity, which is why the Gold Core is asking Sect Master Li Xiu.

In response, Li Xiu's answer is, "...we won't make a move."

"Ah, why? This is the best opportunity to kill him. If we don't kill him here, we won't have another chance in the future!"
