123 Three Months

Although it was summer, the temperature at the cave abode training grounds’ mountain summit was extremely low.

Meng Chuan stood there, and—without any warning—he drew his saber instantly. The saber beam transformed into lightning.

This strike made Meng Chuan shake his head slightly. Senior Guo Ke’s second strike could condense the lightning to an extreme. The lightning tore through the void, leaving a trail of distortion in the void. Even the distance changed. A distance of hundreds of feet warped, turning into a distance that wasn’t more than ten feet. With such a change in distance, attacks reach the target several dozen-fold faster. Furthermore, the attack’s trajectory is difficult to pinpoint. His attack is far more terrifying than mine.

I’m afraid I’ll die from one of Senior Guo Ke’s moves.

Senior Guo Ke had demonstrated five Heart Saber Stance variations. The first variation was the simplest. At the time, he had understood 90% at a glance. He understood everything after some careful thought. The third variation was beyond his realm. He didn’t understand it! The fourth and fifth strike was way beyond him.

He even forgot about his daily drawing! He had also forgotten to cultivate his Quintessential Essence every day! All of this was thrown to the back of his mind…

When he wasn’t eating or sleeping, he practiced his saber.

Ah Chuan used to have long chats with me during dinner, but he’s so terse when we have dinner together nowadays. Liu Qiyue saw Meng Chuan rush to the training grounds alone after he was done with dinner. She couldn’t help but smile. All these years, she hadn’t seen Meng Chuan so obsessed. However, she still felt very happy. She knew that this was a time for Meng Chuan to advance by leaps and bounds. He couldn’t afford any interference.

“Lady Liu Qiyue, someone wishes to meet you,” Steward Liu said respectfully.

“Oh?” Liu Qiyue came to the cave abode’s entrance and saw a mortal middle-aged man. He said respectfully, “Lady Liu Qiyue, I’m here to invite you to Blood Red Cliff tomorrow afternoon. The name of Godfiend, Senior Chang Yong, will be engraved.”

“Senior Brother Chang Yong is dead?” Liu Qiyue was slightly taken aback.

Engraving a name on Blood Red Cliff meant a Godfiend’s death. The engraving of the name was for Archean Mountain juniors to pay their respects.

On the 28th of every month, the Archean Mountain Godfiends—who died in battle over the past month—would have their names engraved on Blood Red Cliff.

“No other Godfiends’ names are being engraved on Blood Red Cliff this month, right?” Liu Qiyue asked again.

Days passed, and he acquired greater insights! His saber art also transformed rapidly!



23rd July.

Meng Chuan instantly drew his saber, and the saber beam transformed into blinding lightning. At this moment, the extremely restrained saber beam made the lightning even more resplendent. Through the saber in his hand, Meng Chuan could vaguely sense the fluctuations coming from the void. He followed one of the fluctuations closest to his target and attacked, causing the saber beam to teleport dozens of feet away.

Despite being dozens of feet away, the distance between him and his target seemed to be greatly shortened by following the fluctuation’s trajectory in the void.

How magical. Meng Chuan was overjoyed after executing that strike.

It was truly magical. It was akin to two points. By taking detours, one might walk five kilometers to go between the two points! But if one took a straight path from one point to another, one would only walk one kilometer. Despite the same outcome, the time it took to achieve that outcome differed.

It was the same with Meng Chuan’s strike. When one looked at it with the naked eye, the target appeared to be 30 to 40 feet away. However, when his attack followed the mysterious void fluctuation, the distance between him and the target was reduced to ten feet.

Guo Ke could warp his attack from hundreds of feet away to just being in arm’s reach of his target. The condensed strike’s strength, the control over his strength, and the control over his Quintessential Essence were ten times more brilliant than Meng Chuan’s.
