Chapter 1323: Chapter 1320: Disciple’s Willingness to Go (3rd Update)

"Sword Cultivator, my visit this time is to offer you a chance. As long as you are willing to seek refuge in the bosom of the Empress, our Ghost Sect will welcome you with open arms!" The Demon Ghost giggled.

No sooner had the voice fallen, than Shi Jian became extremely angry and without any hesitation, he unleashed a sword strike.

Boom!

The Demon Ghost that had just been nurtured from within a flower was directly blasted into pieces.

Then Shi Jian roared, "Wishful thinking! What right do you demon fiends have to be mentioned in the same breath as Mingxin Palace?"

At the same time, a snort of rage came from outside the cage, "You bunch of obstinate sword lunatics! I’m being kind here, yet you remain so stubbornly delusional! Very well, just wait to be trapped and perish here! Oh, I almost forgot to tell you!"

With that, the female voice let out a burst of proud, coy laughter, "At this moment, the several great caves in the outside world should have been destroyed already! Now, only your Mingxin Immortal Palace remains standing strong here!"

"What?" Sword Control Elder was the first to react, then he shouted angrily, "Have you tampered with the competition for Dao heritage this time?"

"Tsk, tsk, so clever! Yes, that’s right, not a single participant in the Dao heritage competition was spared this time; they’ve all died!" The female voice was brimming with pride.

Nian Xuexin screamed in shock, then called out with a hint of tears, "Brother Fang..."

"So I advise you to behave yourselves! After all, once the Empress arrives in a few days, even if you want to surrender then, you’ll probably still face death! Think it over carefully for yourselves!"

Shi Jian was consumed with rage, "Bastard!"

Saying this, he swung a few more sword strikes out, but apart from slightly shaking the black cage, nothing was affected.

The female voice let out a round of smug, wild laughter before falling silent.

Meanwhile, the expressions on the faces of everyone from Mingxin Palace were extremely unsightly.

If what this Demon Ghost said was true, then Mingxin Palace was the only one of the Seven Great Caves remaining.

Despite the formidable strength of Mingxin Palace, in the face of these well-prepared Demon Ghosts, they were clearly outmatched and isolated.

"Senior Brother, what should we do?" Mo Jian and several other Elders all looked towards Jian Yi, who was silent and head down.

As the Great Elder of Mingxin Palace, his decisions represented the direction in which everyone was to proceed.

After a moment, Jian Yi slowly lifted his head, his gaze sharp as he looked at the group.

"Regardless of whether this Demon Ghost speaks true or false, with matters as they stand, we must first find a way to connect with the outside world, particularly with people from the other great caves; otherwise, we are sitting ducks!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Jian Yi let out a slow breath and said in a grave voice, "Although I usually have little regard for the petty bickering and scheming of the other great caves, now that we face a common calamity, as branches of the same lineage, sharing a Dao heritage, we must save everyone possible... after all, this is also about saving ourselves!"

"Understood! Let me go, Senior Brother!" Shi Jian was the first to volunteer.

"And me!" Sword Control chimed in without delay.

However, Mo Jian and Ting Jian remained silent because they knew if Jian Yi spoke in such a manner, he must already have a plan.

Indeed.

Then they saw Jian Yi shake his head with a wry smile, "Fifth Brother, Fourth Brother, I understand your feelings. If possible, I of course also wish to let you go, given that both of your strengths and strategies are sufficient, but the key is..."

Jian Yi looked up, his eyes on the swaths of black qi that segmented the sky, and said gravely, "This Sky-Extinguishing Lock is not so easy to contend with!"

"What do you mean?" Shi Jian was bewildered.

"This Sky-Extinguishing Lock is a secret technique of the ghost realm that I remember our master mentioning in his lifetime. This technique is extremely malevolent; it is derived from the most venomous ghostly energies of the ghost realm, then refined and when finally formed, once deployed, it will seal everything within it!"

"Although the lethality is lacking, the insidious part of this technique lies in the fact that the stronger one is, the deeper they become trapped, making it increasingly difficult to escape! This has led to it becoming a specialized technique for dealing with powerful adversaries!"

Hearing the explanation from the Sword Cultivator, Shi Jian’s expression turned extremely ugly.

Sword Control, however, stirred slightly, and then said, "So, senior brother means..."

The Sword Cultivator nodded, "Exactly!"

As he spoke, he looked toward Tian Yuanqing and Nian Xuexin, among other disciples standing aside, "I’m preparing to send Yuanqing and the others on this journey!"

Upon hearing these words, Shi Jian and the other Great Elders like Mo Jian all changed their expressions dramatically.

Especially the amiable Great Elder Ting Jian, who was deeply beloved by the disciples in the sect, immediately said, "Senior brother, I think this is unwise! Although Yuanqing and the others have respectable cultivation levels and decent Sword Intent, they are still just children! If they encounter formidable Demon Ghosts from the ghost realms when they go out, wouldn’t that be..."

But before he could finish speaking, Tian Yuanqing had already bowed with respect, saying, "I shall follow the Master’s command with utmost diligence!"

Ting Jian was taken aback.

Then Tian Yuanqing smiled at him, "Uncle Ting Jian, I know you want the best for us, but as disciples of the Sword Cultivator, how can we shy away when faced with adversity? Haven’t you always taught us, ’To be a swordsman is to also have the heart of one’?"

Upon hearing this, Ting Jian revealed a bitter smile, "While that is true, but..."

However, Nian Xuexin was already so excited she was practically bouncing with joy. Having cultivated in the sect since childhood and never having left the mountain, the news that they were to be sent on a mission naturally thrilled her, prompting her to quickly say,

"Uncle, I think what senior brother said is correct. Moreover, not only do we need to investigate the situation in the other major cave heavens this time, but we also need to find the whereabouts of senior brother Fang Xing’an!"

"Indeed, I am willing to go!" As the words echoed, all the inner chamber true disciples of Mingxin Palace stepped forward in unison, bowing and saying the words.

Seeing this scene, Ting Jian heaved a sigh and then shook his head.

The other Great Elders, too, were silently lost for words.

The Sword Cultivator’s heart quivered lightly, his gaze sweeping over these young faces before finally nodding in agreement.

"Good! Truly worthy to be the disciples of the Sword Cultivator from Mingxin Palace!"

Even for these disciples, passing through the barrier of the Heaven Obliterating Lock was not an easy task.

Sword Control and Mo Jian, along with a few other Great Elders, worked together and finally managed to open a small gap with great effort.

With so many disciples, naturally not all could leave; in the end, Tian Yuanqing chose a few fellow disciples. Although Nian Xuexin was young and a woman, her Sword Heart was pure and her strength ranked just behind Tian Yuanqing and Fang Xing’an among her peers, so naturally, she also had to follow.

Just as they were about to embark on their journey, Shi Jian stepped forward, silently infusing each one with Sword Intent and then gently patted Tian Yuanqing’s shoulder.

"Once you’re out there... be very careful!"

"Yes!" Tian Yuanqing bowed in response.

"If you encounter Demon Ghosts you can handle, remember to slay a few extra for me!"

Tian Yuanqing paused, and then bowed deeply, "Understood!"

After Tian Yuanqing and the others passed through the Heaven Obliterating Lock and left Jianzhou, disappearing from everyone’s sight.

Ting Jian couldn’t help but say, "Senior brother, can these children really handle it?"

The Sword Cultivator shook his head, "I don’t know either!"

"Then what are we doing, just sitting here waiting?" Shi Jian said resentfully.

The Sword Cultivator stood up, silent for a moment, then spoke, "I have a feeling that it won’t be long before this place becomes far from peaceful!"
