Indestructible Body Of Vajra Of The Village Leader

Unexpected events always happen when you least expect them.

The aura of the Great Strength Fire Qilin Saber suddenly emerged from within the Sky Abyss, beyond Jiang Dali’s expectations, and it also forced the plan he had discussed with Guang Chengzi to be temporarily put on hold.

Indeed, the plan the other party spoke of was exactly the problem he currently had to face.

The two shared common interests and a basis for cooperation, yet to say he should immediately accept Guang Chengzi’s invitation and then join forces to oppose Heavenly Will—he was far from making such a swift decision.

In the end, it still came down to trust, to the level of their relationship.

Guang Chengzi might be an Ancient Immortal Master, his good name spreading far and wide, but after all, he had fallen into the Sky Abyss long ago, and for countless years had been corroded by the black mist born of the resentful intent of Heavenly Will and Earth Intent within the abyss, branded a Fallen Immortal—how could he truly be an easy man to deal with?

After all, anyone who falls into the Sky Abyss, even Chuan Ying and Ling Donglai, ultimately becomes a Twisted one, ending in a miserable fate.

Though Chuan Ying escaped, according to Guang Chengzi, he paid an enormous price.

So why was it that Guang Chengzi could still remain unharmed; was it only because he had once been a Breakthrough Realm powerhouse, and thus escaped disaster?

Jiang Dali might look bulky and rough, but in truth he was meticulous within, with a scale in his heart.

From the overbearing attitude displayed by Guang Chengzi’s subordinates, and the ruthless signs in Guang Chengzi’s actions, everything indicated that the man was not as immortal-like and benevolent as he appeared on the surface.

No matter how good the facade, his behavior and bearing already revealed the cold cruelty and aloofness within.

Perhaps it was because he had dwelled for thousands of years in the cold, dark environment of the Sky Abyss and long grown used to it, that he treated the power of life and death over his subordinates with complete indifference—but this inner-outer conflict was enough to make Jiang Dali wary.

Vicious and ruthless, cold and merciless!

This in itself was not wrong.

He himself was such a man.

But being different inside and out—that was what demanded even greater vigilance. Besides, even he would never, without cause, give rise to a killing intent toward loyal subordinates.

Thus, after stating that he wished to meet Chuan Ying and then discuss the follow-up matters of cooperation, Jiang Dali followed the guide arranged by Guang Chengzi, leaving Fallen Immortal Mountain and heading to the place where Chuan Ying lived in seclusion.

"That Hero Chuan, after all, was once a great hero and great champion famed across the world. Now he’s fallen into such a state, neither quite human nor ghost. I fear he may not even be willing to see you, Master Jiang.

In any case, Master Jiang, you must be aware that the time we can grasp is only three days. Within the Sky Abyss, it’s hard to judge time precisely, but you and I both have a sense of it. Within three days, if Master Jiang has not returned to seek out my master, then this cooperation will be considered void."

After Guang Chengzi spoke this as he saw him off, he watched Jiang Dali recede into the distance.

Only after a long while did he withdraw his gaze, a trace of gloom surfacing in his expression as he sighed softly.

"Time waits for no one... time waits for no one... This time is the only chance. If he does not agree... then I may have no choice but to risk it once more..."

The black mist rolled like the maw of a giant beast, surging up in waves, and in an instant swallowed Guang Chengzi’s figure into the dark fog, leaving only a faint, indistinct sigh.

As if lamenting the resentment of heaven and earth, and as if lamenting the unfairness of fate.

...

"Heh heh! Senior Jiang, this little one is known as Chasing Wind Leg. In the old days I was a rapist wanted by the Holy Dynasty. My other skills aren’t much, but the Qinggong in these legs is top-notch. If not for Lingyun Pavilion mobilizing more than ten Heavenly Person Stewards to besiege and hunt this little one together back then, I’d never have been caught and exiled in here..."

Amidst the surging black mist, a scrawny old man with sparse hair and sparse, broken teeth sprinted at full speed, mouth rattling on in self-introduction. He glanced back at Jiang Dali, who was following behind at an unhurried pace, and split his yellowed teeth in a fawning grin.

"With this little one leading the way, you can rest easy—you definitely won’t be wasting your time. How about I pick up the pace a bit more now?"

Jiang Dali was carefully sensing the position of the Great Strength Fire Qilin Saber and hadn’t really listened to the old man’s endless babbling. Now, upon hearing this, he noticed that faint, persistent feeling as though an eye were spying on him. He nodded slightly and said, "Guang Chengzi sent you to guide me; I suppose he also intends to use you to monitor me, doesn’t he?"

"Ah! Ah?"

The old man jolted in fright and hurriedly tried to explain, "How could that be? How would this little one dare?"

Jiang Dali gave a mild smile. "Of course you wouldn’t dare. If Guang Chengzi wants to watch me, he doesn’t even need you to know. He can do it without heaven or ghosts being aware."

"Ah!?" The old man’s face went pale with shock, and he was just about to explain.

Boom!!

A great hand, wreathed in dense waves of Qi, suddenly reached out and grabbed.

The old man instantly found it hard to breathe; his whole body went weak and limp, completely without resistance, as Jiang Dali’s big hand seized his head. A tremor of Qi Force, and he fainted on the spot.

Once this was done.

That faint sensation of being watched by an invisible eye seemed to lessen somewhat.

Jiang Dali frowned and gave a slight shake of his head. He casually hoisted the old man’s body and tossed him onto his shoulder, then, disliking the sour stench emanating from him, he eyed the old man’s body with distaste. After a moment’s thought, he instead grabbed the old man upside down by the feet.

In the next instant, his legs bent slightly and then jolted; the ground boomed and caved in, cracking with fissures. Relying solely on his Physical Strength, his body shot out like a cannonball, streaking like lightning, breaking through layer after layer of sound barriers in the blink of an eye as he sped off.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh——

The old man dangling from his hand flailed wildly in the gale. His clothing and the skin on his face rippled in huge vibrations like waves. His already sparse hair was yanked by the furious wind, each strand torn free to drift away with Sui Feng...

...

After consuming a huge amount of Cultivation Points and Potential Points, and after several days of recuperation, Jiang Dali’s Body injuries and Power Realm had already stabilized and recovered; only the depletion of his Primordial Spirit and Essence Qi, restricted by the special environment of the Sky, had yet to return to a Perfect state.

However, in this Sky, both spirit and qi were suppressed; only the jing that represented the flesh could remain uncorroded by the black fog. Thus, the strongest power within the Sky was the Physical Strength, and this happened to be Jiang Dali’s specialty.

Relying solely on his tyrannical Body, he rampaged across the Sky with no rival in any direction. Just with his flesh he could break the sound barrier, practically a human-shaped missile warhead.

At this speed, in a bit more than half an hour he could dash out over a thousand kilometers to find the Great Strength Fire Qilin Saber.

Within his sensing, the Great Strength Fire Qilin Saber was located somewhere roughly a thousand li away, and was approaching him at a neither-fast-nor-slow speed.

This peculiar phenomenon indicated that someone was holding the Great Strength Fire Qilin Saber and was following the blade’s Spiritual guidance toward him.

Such an unusual situation was precisely why he decided to immediately drop everything—meeting Chuan Ying could be put aside first—and rush off at once to seek out the Great Strength Fire Qilin Saber...

...

Jiang Dali’s Spiritual Sense was not mistaken.

There really was an eye secretly spying on him, observing his every move.

Yet the owner of this eye was not Guang Chengzi, but the Earth Intent controlled by the newly appointed Four Great Family Heads.

After they banished the troublesome Zhu Wushi into the Sky, they immediately began to focus on Zhu Wushi’s condition, preparing to catch a turtle in a jar. But upon sensing that after entering the Sky, Zhu Wushi actually headed straight toward Jiang Dali at once, they immediately felt they had miscalculated.

And at the same time, Jiang Dali seemed to sense something as well, proactively moving toward the location where Zhu Wushi was. The speed he displayed was even more terrifying, giving the Four Great Family Heads a headache and leaving them somewhat torn.

"Looks like... this Black Wind Village Chief and his treasure sword have a certain Spiritual connection. Right now he’s rushing to rendezvous with Zhu Wushi, who’s holding the blade."

"What do we do now? Do we make a move to stop him?"

"Stop him? Heh... with what? At the Black Wind Village Chief’s speed, it’ll take him less than half an hour to reach the vicinity of Zhu Wushi, not to mention Zhu Wushi is also hurrying in his direction... Besides, the Black Wind Village Chief has clearly sensed that we’re monitoring him.

Previously we really miscalculated. We didn’t expect the Fire Qilin Blade’s Spiritual nature to remain intact, suddenly breaking free of its underground bindings and jumping in. We were too slow to interfere, otherwise... Zhu Wushi wouldn’t have so easily locked onto Jiang Dali’s position."

"Zhu Wushi is now inside the Sky and has lost the help of Xiao Feng and the others; his strength has been cut at least in half. If we mobilize the Earth Intent to capture him, it won’t take half an hour."

"That’s what the theory says, but we can’t afford to take risks. If we fail to capture him within half an hour and the Black Wind Village Chief rushes over to support him, not only will all our efforts be in vain, we’ll most likely get into a fierce battle with the Black Wind Village Chief. Have you all forgotten the previous lesson?"

"There’s another method—banish Zhu Wushi into the Twisted Land. That way we can delay him for at least half an hour, more than enough to finish off Zhu Wushi."

At this point in the discussion, the Four Giants fell silent together.

They indeed could use the Earth Intent to activate the Twisted space-time power of the Twisted Land, sending most targets within the Sky into the Twisted Land, and Zhu Wushi was no exception.

But the Twisted Land was, after all, the core secret of their families, and also the greatest secret of this world—a forbidden ground they had long been contesting with the Heavenly Will.

Unless absolutely necessary, they truly did not want to send Zhu Wushi to the Twisted Land to be dealt with.

If any accident occurred—for example, if the uncontrolled Earth Intent within the Twisted Land underwent an uncontrollable change—it would affect their progress in seizing the Twisted Land.

"Forget it! The Twisted Land is of paramount importance. To send Zhu Wushi there, we’d have to convene the Elder Council and obtain the approval of more than half the elders. There’s no time."

"Exactly. Even if we made a decision right now, that kind of move would be extremely risky. Since Zhu Wushi’s fate isn’t meant to end yet, let’s let him go for now. Our primary task is still to immediately strengthen our mastery and familiarity with the Earth Crystal Core."

"Zhu Wushi is just a sesame seed. No need to pick up sesame and drop the watermelon. After banishing him in here, he can hardly Devour the Earth Intent to form a threat. When we have enough capability and time in the future, we’ll slowly cook him."

After the Four Giants made this decision, their killing intent receded. They only split off a portion of the Earth Intent to monitor the movements of Zhu Wushi and Jiang Dali, while their main focus submerged into the Earth Crystal Core, using the main brain to accelerate their control over more Earth Intent.

They certainly wanted to join forces and get rid of this huge threat that could Devour Earth Intent, but because of the awkward timing and the calculations and misgivings of their respective interests, they ultimately gave up this great opportunity.

Granted, if they sent Zhu Wushi into the Twisted Land and used the special Twisted Space-Time within that place, Zhu Wushi might not last long before being taken out.

But this was not completely without risk.

If they failed to kill Zhu Wushi in a short time and instead drew the Black Wind Village Chief into the Twisted Land as well, leading to another battle like the previous one, the Four Great Families simply wouldn’t be able to withstand it.

Even in the worst case, if they managed to kill Zhu Wushi, but the Twisted Land suffered even the slightest mishap as a result, then the Family Head positions they had just taken—their seats not yet warm—would have to be handed over.

Interests and power!

They drove them mad, and also kept them sober and calm.

...

Far away, a thousand li off.

Zhu Wushi, rushing at high speed by wielding the Great Strength Fire Qilin Saber and using Wudang Tiyunzong, had a gleam flash in his eyes. Relying on the Earth Intent that had been Devoured into his Primordial Spirit, he sharply sensed the feeling of being monitored rapidly weakening, as if the other side had lost interest in him as prey.

"Is it because of Brother Jiang?"...

...
