Chapter 693: Chu Zhong Tian’s Message

Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Rundi

Inside the cave, Ling Xian was planning on continuing to enlighten himself with the messages left on the walls when he received a message.

He immediately identified it to be Chu Zhong Tian’s message.

Because this message could only be send under the circumstance that the sender and the receiver of the message shared spiritual energy.

The only person Ling Xian had ever shared his spiritual with, was Chu Zhong Tian. Because he wanted to know about the City of Sin at any time.

After all, that land belonged to him. As a owner, how could he not care?

Therefore, when he sensed that someone was sending him a message, he immediately thought of Chu Zhong Tian. Then, his lips curled into a faint smile. Because he thought Chu Zhong Tian had discovered the city’s secret and that was why he was sending a message.

However, when he heard the message, he began to frown.

As he had guessed, it really was Chu Zhong Tian’s message. The content of it however, was not what he thought it would be.

Come at once.

That was Chu Zhong Tian’s message. Those were all the words. Those words expressed the urgency of the matter.

“What happened?”

Ling Xian frowned. He thought Chu Zhong Tian had discovered the secrets about the Guardian City. He didn’t think the message would contain only those words.

The words had great urgency about them. The moment someone hears it, they would think that the other party was in trouble.

“It’s been more than a decade and Chu Zhong Tian never contacted me. Yet now, he is reaching out. It seems like something had happened.”

Ling Xian softly sighed. He had a bad premonition.

Noticing his behavior, Yu Wu Xiu’s eyes flickered. “It looks like you are in trouble.”

“Curiosity killed the cat. Just mind your own business.” Ling Xian glared at the woman. Though he had a bad premonition, with his mentality, why would he be flustered?

“Hmmph!” Yu Wu Xiu hissed but stopped commenting.

After the series of events that just happened, Ling Xian’s position in her heart had flew way up. And now, she had pretty much become his slave, why would she dare to behave irrationally?

“It looks like you are very unsatisfied with me.” Ling Xian spoke lightly. His tone was like the north wind, cold to the bones.

Immediately, Yu Wu Xiu shuddered and lowered her head, “I don’t dare.”

“That’s for the best.”

Ling Xian glared at her and suddenly remembered something, “If everyone found out that their highness turned into a slave, I wonder how they would react.”

Hearing this, Yu Wu Xiu’s hands tightened, then powerlessly relaxed.

If other people knew that this proud woman turned into someone else’s slave, then her entire face would be lost. Therefore, she gritted her teeth, “I am warning you, if you make this entire event known, I will drag you down with me.”

“I have placed a prohibition spell in you. If I want to, I can kill you instantly. There is no chance for you to go down with me.”

Ling Xian teased but quickly wiped the smirk off his face. “Okay, I am done with you. Be quiet.”

Then, he began to think about his next steps.

Since Chu Zhong Tian had sent him a message, that means no matter what, he had to pay him a visit. Or else his land and his subordinates might all be gone before he knows it.

But he was at the Cliff of Enlightenment right now and he had one more day to be there. If he leaves now, then he would be wasting a great opportunity.

“I will wait a day. Nothing bad can happen in one day.”

After thinking about it, Ling Xian decided that he would head to the City of Sin after he was done there. After all, this opportunity was a rare one that he cannot just forego.

After making up his mind, he refocused on the writings before him and his expression turned serious.

“I have to be efficient and head over to the City of Sin.”

Mumbling, Ling Xian concentrated his spiritual energy and placed his palm on the wall of the mountain.

Immediately, a crack appeared and he tightly grasped onto it. Then, he focused on understanding the messages before him.

This time, his speed of enlightenment was a little slower. Perhaps it was because this technique was more powerful, but it took him an entire half an hour to just learn its name.

The Thunderous Flee.

Just like its name indicated, this technique was used to escape. It was used by cultivators when their life was on the line. In the Taoism community, escape art was a valuable and rare form of art. Its value was similar to offensive and attacking techniques.

Though this technique in particular was relatively lower in realm, its value did not lack next to the other techniques.

Therefore, after Ling Xian realized that this technique was a great one, he immediately grinned from ear to ear.

Though he had the Winged Blitz, it lacked explosive properties. At a critical moment between life and death, it would appear a little slow.

But if he learns this technique, then he could use this technique first for explosive speed before using the Winged Blitz to fly further. Doing so will ensure his speed is near perfection.

“I’ve been wanting to learn about something like this for a long time. But escape techniques are far too valuable and I’ve never encountered one. Now, I have the Thunderous Flee before me, this trip sure is worth it.”

Smiling, Ling Xian concentrated all his energy to understand this technique.

Just like that, time passed by little by little.

Yu Wu Xiu was watching him study this technique and her face became extremely complex.

There was hatred, curiosity, and helplessness.

“Aye, I was 90% certain I was going to use him to get on my path of glory. I cannot believe that I have failed and have even given up my own life.”

After sighing a long sigh, Yu Wu Xiu was bitter in the face and thought her future was dim.

But there was nothing she could do. She could only pray and ask Ling Xian to not overdo it.

“Xian Ling, I will remember this humiliation and I will return it to you in multiples.”

Yu Wu Xiu’s eyes was steady and stern. She silently vowed to break the inhibition spell in her and avenge herself.

As she thought about it, she picked up the now dark Pearl of Opportunity before leaning against the wall beside her and closing her eyes.

Logically speaking, when a cultivator comes to the Cliff of Enlightenment, they would use all their time to study the knowledge. However, she came with the sole purpose of stealing Ling Xian’s talent. Plus, she was a highness, and had access to all techniques.

Thus, she didn’t try to learn something new. Instead, she pondered over how she could get rid of her inhibition spell.

Just like that, the two of them focused on enlightening themselves.

At once, the cave quieted down. The two of them didn’t interrupt each other and minded their own businesses.

After around three hours, Ling Xian opened his eyes slowly and revealed a joyous smile.

After three hours, he had thoroughly learned the Thunderous Flee and could now successfully perform it. That was definitely an achievement.

After all, that was a rare escape art that could make anyone happy.

After he opened his eyes, Yu Wu Xiu opened her eyes as well. Her beautiful eyes flashed with shock.

Because she felt the crack in the wall disappear. Not an intermittent pause, but an utter disappearance. This meant the technique that it contained had been successfully obtained by Ling Xian.

Remember that it was no easy feat to learn any technique, let alone a very difficult escape technique. For anyone else, this would’ve taken at least 10 days to half a month.

Yet Ling Xian merely needed three hours. This once again proved his strong enlightenment abilities.

This made Yu Wu Xiu extremely shocked!

“Three hours… he only needed three hours… how beast at enlightening is he?”

Yu Wu Xiu was in utter shock. Other than disbelief, her face was naked with greed.

This enlightenment speed, this talent… all of this was fatally tempting to her.

After remembering the terror of this person however, she felt like cold water was poured onto her. She knew that there was no way for her to steal Ling Xian’s talent. At least not in the short while.

“You are my servant now and you still dare to have ill intentions towards me. You sure do not give up.”

Ling Xian spoke softly, “Yu Wu Xiu, you better behave yourself. Or else I will not treat you well.”

The last statement was expressed with killer’s intent. It made Yu Wu Xiu shudder and she no longer dared to look greedy.

At this, Ling Xian stopped paying attention to her. After all, he had a tight timeline.

Thus, he once again placed his palm onto the wall and decided to learn another technique with the remainder of his time.

This time, he encountered a defensive technique. This technique allowed the cultivator to form a layer of light barrier. It was known as one of the greatest techniques.

“A defensive technique? Perfect, it will complement my Armor of Royal Spirits.”

Ling Xian softly smiled, very satisfied with this technique. Then, he began to suspend in midair and began to learn this technique named Aurora Light.

Time flew by again. After around half an hour, he slowly opened his eyes and a flash of light dashed under his eyes.

“It attracts the spiritual energy from heaven and earth and converges the energy from the Sun and the Moon.”

Mumbling, Ling Xian formed a hand seal and used this technique.

Instantly, a milky white barrier began to bubble and it trapped him inside. Though it didn’t look very strong, Ling Xian could feel that its defensive ability was not ordinary.

Even if he does nothing and an equal leveled powerhouse hits him continuously, it will take a while to break it.

Looking at the barrier Ling Xian formed, Yu Wu Xiu frowned and then she remembered something. She couldn’t help but shout, “The Aurora Light! I can’t believe you acquired this technique!”

“Oh?”

Ling Xian raised an eyebrow. “Seeing that you are surprised, this technique has a story.”

“You sure are lucky.”

Yu Wu Xiu’s eyes flashed with jealousy, “This technique has a long history. It is created by one of the omnipotent from the Shang Qing Sect. It’s got incredible defensive abilities.”

Pausing, she continued, “However, for reasons never disclosed, that ancestor never passed down this technique. It is one of the biggest regret of the Shang Qing Sect. I cannot believe that elderly left this technique behind here.”

“It looks like I got myself some decent techniques.” Ling Xian nodded in satisfied.

Yu Wu Xiu shook her head and said something that interested Ling Xian.

“If it was just decent, I wouldn’t have shouted out loud.”
