Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang kept going forward and any monks that he found were awakened. Some took a great effort to deal with because unlike the past, Monk Supreme had begun to fight back, however, his power was not as strong as Shi Lang’s.

After a month of travel and work, Shi Lang sensed a familiar presence in the region and flew over. He found Hou Bing standing on the peak of a lush green mountain. He walked up beside her and stood silently.

Hou Bing looked at him and asked, "Has it been hard on you here?"

Shi Lang shook his head and replied, "Apart from the slow cultivation, everything else is fine."

Hou Bing nodded and the young man asked, "How are things on the other places?"

The phoenix shook her head and said, "It is not that bad, the balance is gradually coming back and the spiritual energy that was about to thin has regained some of its vitality. Plus, with the resistance shown by the people in the east, it is hard for the Monk Supreme to take command."

Shi Lang took a deep breath and said, "I am worried that if these puppets met with some weak people, the illusion might spread."

Hou Bing nodded and said, "The towns have been blocked with arrays, and then Asura Hall has taken it upon themselves to keep watch. If they find any monks, they alert the people and everyone either hides away or the strong people come forward to stop the monks."

Shi Lang nodded and Hou Bing said, "Xiao Yu played a bog role last week, she rescued a few young children from a monk. Although her method could be seen as violent, but she defeated three monks who were two realms ahead of her. She even wrote the word ’donkey’ on their bald heads."

The Terran could not help but chuckle and remarked, "Sounds like something I would do."

Hou Bing smiled and then said, "Like Master Like Disciple. Xiao Mei has come up with a pill recipe that refines the soul and erases the marks left by other people."

Shi Lang raised his brow and said, "Very commendable."

He took out a small silk bag from his space ring and said, "Bring it back, and tell the three of them to divide it equally."

Hou Bing looked at the bag and looked at Shi Lang with shock as she questioned, "How did you manage to harvest space sand?"

Shi Lang smiled and did not say anything. He got this sand when he was travelling in the Dao Plain, it was a quick sand and the Dao Attributes were changing over and over every few minutes. He collected the sand in different bags and decided to give this to his disciples.

He said, "This can help them forging three secret places hidden in the space. They only have to integrate their own Dao Laws with the sand to manifest what sort of a place they want."

Hou Bing took a deep breath and nodded, "They are so lucky to have you. It is hard to come across spaces which can contain living people."

Shi Lang asked, "Is that the reason why you came here?"

Hou Bing shook her head and replied, "I came here to tell you about the central location where you need to attack and diffuse the situation in one time."

Shi Lang pursed his lips and asked, "What do you want mean?" Discover exclusive content at empire

Hou Bing replied while she turned to look in the distance, "The monks all get there power from a spiritual avatar of the Monk Supreme. This avatar is what you need to defeat and cut off the influence of the spiritual imprint. Gradually, the imprint will fade away."

Shi Lang frowned hard and asked, "If their is a spiritual avatar, why has this person not coming over to face me?"

Hou Bing smiled and replied, "The avatar does not have much of an offensive strength. They are not like your blood clones. Monk Supreme have two spiritual avatars, both in the north and here in the south. His strength has weakened significantly after creating them. So, you can target the spirit avatar here and be done with the mess. The situation will regulate itself."

Shi Lang thought about it and asked, "Where can I find this avatar?"

Hou Bing shook her head and asked, "You can try interrogating some big monk. I have no idea where this avatar is hiding.’

The Terran sighed and asked, "Can you tell me, how did the Monk Supreme become a supreme?"

Hou Bing turned to look at him and said, "He mastered the sutra, and Old man turtle acknowledged him as a champion. Black Turtle taught him ever since he was a child, and the wisdom he gained transcended the norms. The west is not as chaotic as the east and thus, the people who followed the path of peace acknowledged him. His ego was inflated and he became the Monk Supreme."

Shi Lang sighed and said, "And to think I had to work hard for this."

Hou Bing smiled and patted his shoulder as she said, "I will get going."

Shi Lang nodded and watched her vanish in a void portal. Raksha appeared next to him and said, "Lang, I am sensing a strong sword intent in the surroundings."

Shi Lang raised his brow and asked, "Where?"

Raksha turned around and pointed at direction and the two of them flew away in the void. The journey did not last long, and soon they came to find themselves overlooking a battle. A young lady was facing several others. Shi Lang saw that the girl was holding a sword, and she was the source of the sword intent.

Raksha stood beside Shi Lang and said, "Despite being in the Immortal sovereign realm, she can face five Dao Generals, her skills with the sword are remarkable."

Shi Lang nodded and asked, "Do you want me to help her?"

Raksha shook her head and said, "Not without knowing what is going on here."

Shi Lang thought for a bit and then looked at the side, he found an older woman standing in the void. The lady was also looking at him, and nodded. Shi Lang vanished from his spot and came next to her. He greeted her with cupped fists and asked, "Greetings, Senior."

The lady was a Dao Sovereign, so it was only appropriate for him to greet her. Shi Lang asked, "Senior, may I ask what is going on here?"

The lady smiled and replied, "This is a trial that the young prodigies of my clan have to go through. The people she is fighting at the moment are all from my clan as well. However, these young men are criminals and this is their chance to get away from the bounds."

Shi Lang nodded and then he turned around to look at the battle as he said, "If you do not mind, may I spectate?"

The lady nodded, and watched Shi Lang once again. She has not seen a human this close in a long time, and since this guy can come so deep inside the southern continent, then it means the guardians have acknowledged him. However, if Shi Lang showed any ill-intention she would not mind killing him.

The Terran watched the battle and after a few minutes he called out, "Raksha."

The sword spirit materialized beside him and asked, "Did you also sense it?"

Shi Lang rolled his eyes and asked, "Do you think I have no sense of the sword apart from you?"

Raksha covered her mouth with a shocked expression and said, "When did you realize that you are a sword saint? Look at how scholarly you look apart from battles, hmph."

Shi Lang sighed and he said, "If this child can manage to sense it before this battle ends, she will ascend to become a sword fairy."

The lady beside him was surprised, she asked coldly, "Who are you?"

Shi Lang looked at her with a faint smile and said, "On the Eastern Continent, I am known as the Sword Saint Shi Lang."

As he stopped speaking, his aura changed and the old lady felt suffocated for a second. Shi Lang seemed to have become the sword itself. He grasped the void, and Raksha vaporized to transform into her sword body. Shi Lang tied her to his waist and then he looked at the young lady in the battle field.

The old lady was surprised but then she nodded as she saw that Shi Lang was really holding back himself. His sword aura was strong enough that if he went all out, he might slay her. She became even more wary of him.

The battle was coming to a close, the young lady did not look like she could stand, she was drained, but there was still one opponent that stood against her. Sweat dripped from her chin and she took a deep breath and was about to give up when a calm voice echoed in her mind, "Trust the sword, and slash with all your might. Only those who face everything like the sword themselves, get to be called the sword masters. Do not give up."

Her dimming eyes sparked up once again, and she took a step ahead. The next moment, she raised her weapon as the opponent charged at her, and just when she was in a daze, she slashed down. A sword energy manifested on the edge of the blade and shot through the void before landing on the chest of the man running over.

The young lady stood their in a daze, and her opponent fell to the ground, dead. Shi Lang smiled, and the old lady said, "Thank you for your favor."

Shi Lang shook his head and said, "It is karma that led me to her. Nothing much."
