The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal-Chapter 1023 - : The Genius from Dizhou

Ye Feng could hear the loneliness in Jian Nan Yi's heart.

The other was a very lonely person, craving the company of a friend who would truly understand and stand by him.

Yet, having defeated all his peers and become invincible at his rank, people kept their distance out of respect and awe, which only made him more reclusive.

"And then?" Ye Feng asked, "Where did you go? Could it be that you came to the Void Realm because you were out on an adventure?"

Jian Nan Yi sat cross-legged in the void, with his longsword laid across his knees, and nodded as he said,

"Yes, when I reached the level of a One-Turn Quasi-Saint and became invincible among my peers, I went out to adventure. It was then that I, by chance, entered the Void Realm."

He paused for a moment and continued,

"Entering the Void Realm, I felt very happy."

"There are countless tombs of geniuses here, along with the Three-legged Golden Toad and Lord Void Beast, these two seniors."

"After that, I challenged Lord Void Beast."

"However, in a battle with one of my rank, I was defeated. At that time, my combat strength was only at the level of a King with seven stars."

"Later, I left the Void Realm, traveled to various worlds to practice, challenged countless peer opponents, and even defeated enemies beyond my realm. I was able to sweep through Third-Turn and Fourth-Turn Quasi-Saints with the cultivation level of a One-Turn Quasi-Saint."

"When I advanced to a Four-Turn Quasi-Saint, I came back."

"By that time, my combat strength had reached the level of a King with nine stars."

"After that, I continued to train arduously."

"But Senior Three-legged Golden Toad warned me that raising my combat strength to an invincible level had its downsides, as I would attract the attention of a mysterious Cosmic Will."

"But, I didn't believe in such curses."

"Another ten years went by."

"I pushed my Swift Sword to the limit and also comprehended an alternative Consciousness Domain, defeating a Void Beast of my own rank."

"From then on, I became the fifty-ninth Invincible Supreme."

"After leaving the Void Realm, I returned to Dizhou, successfully broke through to the Saint Realm, and climbed all the way to the peak of the Saint Entry Realm."

"But then, misfortune still struck."

"On an adventure, I and over a dozen Saint Realm experts from my sect were trapped and sealed within a Secret Realm, where we encountered an attack by a mysterious Demonic Beast and perished on the spot."

"When I woke up again, I was buried here by Senior Three-legged Golden Toad, alas!"

With these words, Jian Nan Yi kept shaking his head.

He felt that it was the curse of the Cosmic Will that had caused the death of his sect's Saint Realm Powerhouses.

"Life is unpredictable, just take it as it comes," Ye Feng could only offer such comfort.

"Ha-ha! Don't worry, I'm just a dead man, what is there for me to be attached to? Having lain in my own tomb for ten thousand years, I've long since made peace with it," Jian Nan Yi laughed.

Tap, tap, tap!

At that moment, footsteps approached.

Ye Feng looked in the direction of the sound and saw Mo Ying walking towards them alone.

"Sect Leader, Senior Jian Nan Yi."

Upon seeing Ye Feng and the sword soul of Jian Nan Yi, Mo Ying hurriedly clasped her hands in a greeting, showing ample respect.

Ye Feng had already shared the general situation with Mo Ying through mind transmission, so she knew that she was about to learn the Ultimate Fast Sword from the peerless Jian Nan Yi.

"A woman?" Jian Nan Yi frowned.

"Is there a problem?" Ye Feng asked.

Jian Nan Yi shook his head, saying, "I once learned from a senior who lies in a tomb, and he said that women only hinder the speed at which a swordsman can draw his sword!"

Ye Feng immediately laughed.

Mo Ying also almost burst into laughter.

Ye Feng responded, "The senior you're talking about wouldn't happen to be the Mad Sword Saint, would he? The Second Disciple of our Misty Sect is currently learning the Mad Ruthless Sword from him."

Jian Nan Yi nodded eagerly, "It's indeed Senior Mad Sword Saint. It's precisely because of his guidance that I have been single-minded and have never touched a woman until I died, which allowed me to perfect the Ultimate Fast Sword."

Hearing this, Ye Feng was at a loss for words.

What a Mad Sword Saint, even someone like Jian Nan Yi got misled by him, truly remarkable.

"No matter, you teach Mo Ying the Fast Sword; whether she is a woman has nothing to do with it," Ye Feng said.

Jian Nan Yi thought about it and felt the same.

"First, show me your Swift Sword, let's see to what extent you've mastered it, and also tell me about your own combat strength."

Hearing this, Mo Ying performed a sword greeting, "Junior Mo Ying, nine layers into the Void Break Realm, combat strength of a King with seven stars."

"King with seven stars?!" Jian Nan Yi was surprised.

When he first arrived at the Void Realm, his combat strength was also at the level of a King with seven stars, exactly the same as Mo Ying's.

"Why aren't you showing your true face?"

Jian Nan Yi asked again.

Mo Ying shook her head, "I am reclusive by nature and don't want to be seen by others." freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Jian Nan Yi clapped his hands together, "Amazing! Just like myself, very good. Display your fastest sword strike, and if it pleases me, I will take you as my disciple on the spot."

Mo Ying nodded her head.

She naturally held great respect for Jian Nan Yi.

After all, he was a truly invincible expert at the same rank, and he possessed the Ultimate Fast Sword, the fastest swordsman in the world.

To become his disciple was a great opportunity for her.

"Sword, strike!"

Mo Ying gathered her spirit energy and, with one hand on her sword, she thrust it forward swiftly. In an instant, up to ten thousand sword shadows appeared in mid-air, scattering even the faint mist that surrounded them.

"Not bad, a very fast sword!" Jian Nan Yi expressed his satisfaction, "From today onward, you're my personal disciple."

"Thank you, Master!" Mo Ying quickly bowed in respect.

Ye Feng felt a deep sense of gratification as he watched Mo Ying being accepted as a disciple by Jian Nan Yi.

As long as Mo Ying learned Jian Nan Yi's techniques, he, as the Sect Leader, could instantly learn and achieve Perfection.

At that time, he would become the fastest swordsman in the world!

Thinking of this, Ye Feng felt very happy.

"Mo Ying, you stay here and diligently practice Swift Sword with Fellow Daoist Jian Nan Yi. I, as the Sect Leader, will take a walk nearby and visit other fellows."

"Yes, Sect Leader."

A moment later.

Ye Feng, holding a teacup, sipped tea while climbing mountains alone, searching for the tombs of Invincible Supremes scattered throughout the Void Continent.

...

Meanwhile.

In one of the Nine Great Provinces, Dizhou.

A group of geniuses was hunting Demonic Beasts in a secluded, desolate mountain. Swords slashed horizontally, tearing through the void.

The ferocious beast they were chasing leaped right into it.

"Look, the space rift isn't healing!"

"Let's go, check it out!"

The group of geniuses immediately passed through the space rift and then were pulled by a terrifying gravitational force, tumbling down onto sandy land.

Not far away.

The Azure Wild Bull they were chasing was in a frantic escape, but it had not gone far when a tongue wound around it and dragged it deeper into the Purple Bamboo Forest.

After that, chewing noises were heard.

"Gulp!"

All the geniuses swallowed hard.

The Azure Wild Bull was at the Heavenly Emperor Level, and it had taken their combined efforts to defeat it. But now, it was being eaten alive by a terrifying entity in the bamboo forest, which was horrifying!

"Run!"

The group of geniuses quickly turned to flee. The entrance they had come through, however, closed immediately, sending shivers down their spines.

"We're done for!"

"We're not going to be eaten, are we?"

The group of geniuses trembled.

But, after waiting for a while, they realized there was no immediate danger in the vicinity, and the mysterious powerhouse hidden in the shadows did not appear or attack them.

"Don't panic. A dead man is like an egg facing the sky; what's the big deal?"

"Exactly, just go for it!"

"This place nearby looks rather nice, let's explore it first, we might find an opportunity."

Emboldened, the cultivators began to wander around.

Soon after.

They arrived in front of a large expanse of graves.

Seeing the uneven tombstones and feeling the cold wind by their ears, they instantly got goosebumps.

"Mommy!"

"What kind of damned place this is, it's too creepy!"

The geniuses from Dizhou shivered.

Tap tap tap!

Just then, the sound of footsteps approached from around the corner, and a glimpse of fiery red light that dispelled the surrounding mist caught the attention of the geniuses.

"Who... Who is there?!"

The geniuses' teeth chattered.

The atmosphere on scene suddenly became extremely oppressive.
