Chapter 345: Ninth Nether Demon Snake!
Moreover, outer disciples also need to be responsible for various miscellaneous affairs every day. Only after completing these errands can they have time to cultivate.
On the 36 Sword Peaks, each peak has its own inner disciples and outer disciples.
All outer disciples dream of going to the Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak, even if it means doing odd jobs every day. That way, they can be close to the inner disciples, and if they’re lucky, they might receive some pointers.
If one manages to gain the Elder’s favor, their chances of becoming an inner disciple would greatly increase.
However, the Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak is somewhat unusual.
On other peaks, there are many inner and outer disciples, and the place is bustling every day. Yet, here, it is cold and quiet.
At the Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak, Elder Su is in charge, but there are no inner disciples, let alone any direct disciples.
Many new disciples thought that by coming to the Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak, they would be able to receive guidance from the inner disciples, like on other peaks, and gain the Elders’ appreciation.
However, upon arrival, they discovered that they were just errand runners responsible for various tasks, with no opportunity for progress.
Over time, they were even bullied by the disciples from other peaks.
Originally, Zhang Qing and others had come to the Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak with hundreds of people. In the end, only about ten people stayed, as no one wanted to remain here.
It is said that this situation stems from Elder Su, who has never accepted direct disciples.
At Divine Sword School, there were those who were dissatisfied that Elder Su was not accepting disciples while monopolizing the Thirty-Sixth Peak. As a result, they were chased and beaten by Elder Su. If it weren’t for the Headmaster’s intervention, they might have been killed on the spot.
With Elder Su’s temper, no one dared provoke him. From then on, though Elder Su didn’t accept disciples, no one dared speak out against him.
Some people are dissatisfied, but they dare not express it further!
Su Yi received this information from Sun Qing and Xu Jiahui: Divine Sword School, located in Central State, is one of the top-tier forces in the entire region.
“Central State!”
Su Yi’s heart trembled. Central State is one of the strongest forces among the six lands. Sacred Mountain, located in Central State, is the most powerful force in the region.
Unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, Su Yi found himself so close to Sacred Mountain, which gave him mixed emotions.
“Sacred Mountain, one day I will step on it!”
Su Yi murmured to himself, his eyes flickering with a red light.
“Be aware that Teng Ming might not stop easily,” Su Yi said to everyone.
“No problem,” Xu Jiahui replied. “Teng Ming has been injured, and at least for a short time, he won’t come looking for trouble.”
Xu Jiahui then asked Su Yi, “This is the Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak. In fact, there are several other peaks around it that also belong to this peak. The scenery is nice, so you can explore when you have nothing to do. However, other areas of the mountain are off-limits, and it would be troublesome if you trespass.”
“Thank you!”
Su Yi nodded and then took his leave.
“Wow, that’s amazing! I wonder where he’s from!”
Sun Qing and the other disciples were in awe for a long time. A teenager, almost the same age as them, with such incredible strength!
…
Su Yi walked around, taking in the sights. This was the Divine Sword School, a top-tier power in Central State. Although he couldn’t wander everywhere, at least he could gain some insight in the vicinity.
The scenery was beautiful and ancient, with birds and strange animals flitting about.
After two hours, Su Yi realized he had wandered off. As Xu Jiahui had mentioned, there was indeed no one in the area of the Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak.
The sky was blue, and among the mountain peaks, there was a lake with clear blue water, dustless and serene.
A graceful figure was walking across the lake’s surface, like a fairy. Her figure was light and ethereal, her black hair flowing freely, and her orange dress fluttered in the breeze. She exuded an otherworldly aura, as though she had been banished from the mundane world.
The girl appeared young, and she was dancing with her sword. The blade sparkled, and her face remained calm. Her red lips were tender, and her bright eyes, as clear as water, reflected upon the lake’s surface, like a mist.
The sword glowed and swayed, tracing graceful arcs in the air.
The woman emanated a bright, radiant glow, and on this lake, with one person and one sword, they were perfectly in harmony, like a painting.
“Whew…”
The sword light moved slowly, but each strike that swept out traced an arc in the void, captivating anyone who saw it.
The sword light sprinkled like rain, dissipating over the lake’s surface. From a distance, it looked as though countless petals were swirling around her, highlighting her ethereal temperament even more.
“It seems like there’s someone…”
At the foot of the mountain, Su Yi raised his head slightly and paused. He felt a fluctuating aura; it wasn’t a fight, but rather someone cultivating.
Su Yi paused, wondering if he could take a glimpse of the true power of the Divine Sword School’s disciples.
After all, Teng Ming, Sun Qing, and others were only outer disciples and couldn’t represent the true strength of Divine Sword School.
“Hiss…”
Suddenly, a beastly silhouette emerged from the rocks in front of him. Its eyes fixed on Su Yi, and it panted heavily.
It was a gigantic python, its body pitch-black, with a dragon-like head. Half of its body was upright on the rocks, its eyes glowing faintly with a hint of gold, sparkling like jade.
The snake spread its black wings slightly, emitting a faint dark light that shimmered.
“Boom!”
The appearance of such a massive snake brought a grandiose atmosphere, making Su Yi’s heart tremble and his soul quiver.
“Ninth Nether Demon Snake!”
When the dark-colored snake appeared, Su Yi instinctively took several steps back and stared at it. His eyes were filled with tremors. It was a baby Ninth Nether Demon Snake.
The Ninth Nether Demon Snake is a powerful creature among supernatural beings, with a bloodline that can be compared to the Cold Waves Golden-Red Beast.
“Trespassing here? Are you looking for death?!”
The Ninth Nether Demon Snake loomed over Su Yi, its eyes filled with warning, and a chilling, menacing aura emanated from it. It was enough to make any ordinary person shudder.
“No offense.”
Su Yi understood the language of beasts. The Ninth Nether Demon Snake’s cultivation was only at the level of Demonic Spirit Realm Two Grade, but the person behind this young Ninth Nether Demon Snake must be extraordinary in Divine Sword School. Su Yi didn’t want to cause trouble.
“Human, do you understand what I’m saying?”
Upon hearing this, the Ninth Nether Demon Snake was astonished. Its crystal-clear eyes flickered with a golden hue, a very shocking sight.
“Farewell.”
Su Yi turned around, not wanting to linger and risk alerting the Ninth Nether Demon Snake’s master.
“Human, who are you, and why can you understand me? Don’t go without answering me!”
