Chapter 231: Chapter 176: Barrier Closed (Request for Monthly Ticket)
Dong dong dong...
The clear bell sounds ring out from Chen Bell Platform, spreading into the distance.
It has been over two years since Li Qian borrowed the name of the old ancestor.
The Divine Sword Sect has kept a low profile, significantly shrinking its territories.
In these past two years, three Celestial Level family clans have emerged on the territory of the Divine Sword Sect. After occupying most of the territories that the Divine Sword Sect willingly gave up, they didn’t expand further and maintained a peaceful coexistence with the Divine Sword Sect temporarily.
However, in Taiwu Dao, and even in Dachang... and other countries in the Sheep Horn Domain, due to a large number of Celestial Level family clans descending, the local power’s spatial territories are greatly squeezed, causing frequent conflicts.
Eventually, these powerful outsiders suppressed the local forces to the point of suffocation.
Chen Bell Platform.
Li Qian is cultivating with Sword Eighteen, and although the progress is slow, he persists in his daily training.
He has been waiting for the day when the barrier of the Human World closes.
Without the suppression of the barrier, his cultivation speed would definitely recover.
Although he once did not wish for the barrier to close, in the face of an uncontrollable demonic disaster, closing the barrier has become urgent.
He guessed that the reason it hasn’t closed yet is likely because various preparatory works are still incomplete, as can be deduced from the large number of Celestial Level family clans that have been deployed in recent years.
The Martial Alliance is definitely making detailed preparations to deal with the demonic impacts after the barrier’s closure.
By filling the Human World with a large number of Celestial Level family clans, it can significantly enhance the resistance against demonic disturbances by filling power vacuums.
In such a context, it’s near impossible for local forces like the Divine Sword Sect to resist this territorial encroachment; it’s like hitting a rock with an egg and is going against the trend.
In fact, the more Celestial Level family clans there are in their territory, perhaps they will be safer in the future demonic chaos.
Temporary losses are insignificant compared to survival.
Hoo!
After a long while, Li Qian sheathes his sword.
While on Chen Bell Platform, he rarely absorbs Sword Eighteen, the fully refined Divine Sword, into his body, usually choosing to keep it outside.
Only when going out does he carry the Myriad Phenomena Saint Sword.
Suddenly, Li Qian looks towards the mountain foot, a figure is rapidly approaching.
Not long after, a white-robed girl arrives at Chen Bell Platform.
"Grandmaster."
The girl in white calls out.
"Yingxue has arrived."
Li Qian jumps down from the bell tower, saying cheerfully.
This white-robed girl is Chai Yingxue, now a sixteen-year-old maiden.
Her martial talent is quite good, possessing a high-grade Bright Light Level Root Bone, thus she was taken as a close disciple by the Heavenly Woman of the Divine Sword Sect.
Her talent is better than her mother, Bai Yun, but unfortunately, like her mother when she was young, she can’t bear hardship and didn’t want to practice Sword Stabbing Fist after a year.
Li Qian wouldn’t force her; it’s her own choice.
Normally, as long as one’s Root Bone talent isn’t bad, mastering Sword Stabbing Fist fully, later practicing the Pure Sword Body wouldn’t usually pose a problem.
This was summarized by Li Qian from several disciples’ cultivation.
Since Chai Yingxue didn’t wish to cultivate Sword Stabbing Fist, she couldn’t stay in Wuxin lineage, and had to seek another peak.
After all, to enter Wuxin Peak, one must first master Sword Stabbing Fist fully; else one cannot become an Official Disciple of Wuxin lineage, according to the rules set by Li Qian.
"What brings you here today?"
Li Qian asks with a smile.
"Grandmaster, where is Little White?"
Chai Yingxue looks around, then asks.
"I don’t know."
Li Qian shakes his head.
He knows what Chai Yingxue is looking for. freёweɓnovel.com
White Fox, after striking the bell, slipped aside to sleep.
Anyway, Li Qian rarely strikes the bell himself these days; it’s usually White Fox.
"There’s Little White."
Chai Yingxue’s eyes suddenly light up, she hurries over and picks up White Fox lying on Blackie’s back.
White Fox just lazily looks at Chai Yingxue.
Usually, Li Qian’s Primordial Spirit only awakens when striking the bell; normally, it remains asleep, controlled by White Fox’s instincts.
The usual state of White Fox looks naive and silly.
Li Qian sits down and starts flipping through a book.
Chai Yingxue sits beside him, holding White Fox, talking to Li Qian about trivial matters, but she finds them quite interesting.
Suddenly, Li Qian, sensing something, looks up towards the sky.
The Heaven and Earth Essence Qi seems to be fluctuating, not as calm as before.
"What’s wrong, Grandmaster?"
Chai Yingxue sees Li Qian’s expression turn serious and becomes curious. She also looks at the sky, but sees nothing, only blue sky, white clouds, and brilliant sunlight.
Suddenly, the wind begins.
This is no ordinary wind.
It’s formed by the fluctuations of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi.
Boom!
Suddenly, thunder from a clear sky.
Above the sky, thunder and lightning abruptly appear, very eerie.
"Grandmaster, is it going to rain?"
Chai Yingxue curiously asks.
"I don’t know."
Li Qian shakes his head.
He senses the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi becoming violent.
"It seems, the Martial Alliance is likely about to close the barrier of the Human World."
Li Qian thinks to himself.
The great change is finally about to arrive.
Woo woo woo...
The wind grows stronger and more urgent.
Above the sky, thunder and lightning fill the space everywhere.
And Li Qian can vaguely see an invisible large net within the thunder and lightning, as if it’s gradually manifesting.
The whole process lasts about a quarter of an hour, then suddenly the heavens and earth seem to shake, crack... a terrifying sound comes down from the sky, and countless cracks appear in the air.
