Volume 1: Red Dust Sword Sect Chapter 37: Retrieval

  Listening to Yi Yan's chatter, Su Lun felt annoyed and frustrated in his heart. At this moment, he couldn't lose his temper, or else he would fall into Yi Yan's trap. So Su Lun just closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and kept silent.

  "You've been scolded silly by your master, or has Zhang Hao driven you silly? I've spoken for half a day and you don't even respond to me." Yi Yan saw that Su Lun was ignoring him and felt uninterested too, but he couldn't help muttering under his breath.

  Su Leng looked at Yi Yan's appearance of owing money and scolded in her heart: "Idiot!"

  But his face was pretending to be calm and indifferent.

  Yi Yan's personality is straightforward, but he also likes to be meticulous. He has no malice towards Su Lun, it's just that when he was deceived by Zhang Hao with a fake Tongtian Tower at the entrance of Tianmo Valley, he returned to his sect and told them about it, not expecting Su Lun to kick him while he was down. This time, Yi Yan wants Su Lun to experience this kind of feeling as well.

  But he didn't expect this guy would be so cold and indifferent, which made him very depressed, and had to leave with a sullen face.

  Red Dust Sword Gate

  Nameless mountain peak.

  Inside Zhang Hao's wooden house, the two sat facing each other.

  Zhang Yuefeng is carefully analyzing the power of the Seven Mysteries Gate with Zhang Hao, as well as the power of the surrounding sects.

  After listening to Zhang Yuefeng's words, Zhang Hao stood up and said, "It seems that the Xianmen sects in this Tianhuang have been too comfortable for too long, just like a sharp long spear that has been placed for too long, it has already rusted."

  Zhang Yuefeng listened to Zhang Hao's words, and after a moment of contemplation, said, "The major sects basically do not interact with each other, unless it is the annual Tianhuang Festival (the day when the old man Tianhuang presents the Tianhuang Edict to the seven major sects of the Xianyu world), when they gather disciples under the age of 18 from various sects for a trial by combat. The winning sect will receive a treasure bestowed by Tianhuang Wei, three hundred third-grade spirit stones, and a reward of magical techniques."

  "When is the Tianhuang Festival held?" Zhang Hao asked hastily as soon as he heard it.

  "It is held on August 16th every year. Each sect must send someone to participate, and the Tian Huang Sect sends Tian Huang Wei to preside over the competition."

  "August 16th, time is a bit tight! But it's also nothing to worry about..." Zhang Hao said with a confident smile.

  Zhang Yuefeng listened to Zhang Hao's words and continued, "The Red Dust Sword Sect is only separated from the Lingering Peak by a nameless abyss, and the two sects are within thirty miles of each other. In the past, our Master and the Lingering Daoist were quite close, but after the change in leadership, the Lingering Daoist's behavior has indeed been shameful. This time, we must be careful in dealing with him." Zhang Yuefeng spoke seriously, looking at Zhang Hao.

  Zhang Hao smiled slightly and said, "There are only three condensed pulse cultivators inside the Floating Mist Peak, and only the Floating Mist Daoist is a Golden Elixir cultivator. If we compare our strength, we may not be afraid of him." After finishing speaking, Zhang Hao turned his head to look at Zhang Yuefeng, with a cold killing intent in his eyes.

  Zhang Yuefeng was shocked and hastily said, "Junior brother, you can't do this! The edict of the Tian Huang elder clearly prohibits it. Alchemists cannot kill each other within the Tian Huang!"

  Zhang Hao said calmly, "My cultivation is only at the Condensing Pulse stage, not within the scope of the ban. Moreover, the mysterious Daoist has gone too far in deceiving people, daring to have designs on my senior sister. If we don't teach him a lesson this time, our Red Dust Sword Sect will truly become his Seven Mysteries Sect's puppet."

  "Junior brother, what are you planning! Don't take this matter lightly!" Zhang Yuefeng hastily reminded him with great care.

  "Come one, come all! If you dare to offend the Red Dust Sword Sect, you will be killed!" Zhang Hao's words were stern and severe, a fierce killing intent was released from his body, and a powerful aura naturally emerged.

  In the past, Zhang Hao chose to be a Sword Immortal in the game and went through hardships to level up and kill people, cultivating an aura of decisiveness. He eventually became one of the top ten experts in the world. After entering this world, he has been diligently practicing for some time without slacking off, but his heart was very stifled. After saying these words, he felt much more relieved.

  When the spiritual energy is circulating inside, there is also a feeling of thoroughness. Isn't the cultivation of truth and longevity just seeking the true self? Then why must one suppress their own killing intent? Some people absolutely cannot be allowed to bully themselves.

  Zhang Hao thought while looking at Zhang Yuefeng.

  Affected by Zhang Hao's momentum, Zhang Yuefeng was also slightly excited and nodded secretly, "The master can have such bravery and skill, this is the blessing of the red dust, the master under the spring will surely smile!"

  After he finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment and carefully asked: "But can you be sure of this matter, junior brother?" As he spoke, his excited expression gradually calmed down, after all, the other party was a Golden Elixir cultivator, while his junior brother was only a Qi Condensation stage disciple.

  Zhang Hao just glanced at Zhang Yuefeng and said calmly, "It's okay if we can't kill him, but his disciples can be humiliated a bit! Consider it a warning for him!"

  After finishing, he raised his eyes to look at the portrait of the leader of the Red Dust Sword Sect, and after a moment, he turned around and said: "Senior brother, I want to refine some talismans and spiritual pills to assist in my cultivation. Do you think it's possible for me to get some materials from you?"

  "This?"

  Zhang Yuefeng had not yet fully digested the meaning of Zhang Hao's previous words, and at this moment, he heard this guy asking him for materials to refine medicine. In his heart, he thought, "My junior brother has just entered the Condensing Pulse stage, and refining elixirs and talismans is not an easy task. I don't want to waste the sect's medicinal materials and minerals. It's just that now he's using the excuse of three months later to come and ask me for them, and I really can't refuse!"

  He hesitated for a moment before saying: "I don't know what kind of spiritual elixir or talisman Master wants to refine."

  Zhang Hao smiled somewhat awkwardly and said: "You'll naturally know when the time comes, I can give you a list of materials, help me prepare them!"

  Actually, Zhang Hao didn't know what Zan was going to refine either, he just gave himself a list of materials and now handed it over to Zhang Yuefeng.

  As soon as Zhang Hao handed over the jade tablet, Zhang Yuefeng's face changed after just one glance.

  "Junior brother... these materials are extraordinary, we must go to Tian Huang Market to buy them!"

  Zhang Hao saw Zhang Yuefeng's evasive expression and felt somewhat displeased, but he knew his senior brother's character had always been like this. At first, this guy seemed to have some fear and scruples towards himself, the better he treated him, the more petty he became towards himself. This wouldn't do, so Zhang Hao pretended to be lazy and let out a yawn, his tone firm as he said: "Then go buy it! Now there's only two months left until August 12th, this matter must be settled as soon as possible!"

  Zhang Yuefeng wanted to say something else, but Zhang Hao had already closed his eyes and sat down on the couch in the house, with a gentle spiritual energy entering from all around, causing the temperature inside the house to drop suddenly.

  "Ah, you little scoundrel, the spiritual energy in your body has already condensed to a considerable extent. After a while, you should be able to enter the Valley of Seclusion period. Now, I'll teach you two types of attack techniques. First, focus on comprehending them with your heart, and once you enter the Valley of Seclusion period, you can use internal cultivation methods to practice these two sword techniques!"

  Zhang Hao responded with a nod, and in an instant, he felt that there were two more cultivation methods in his sea of consciousness.

  Flight Technique, Sword Piercing Technique.

  The Fei Tuo technique allows for short-term flight, while the Jian Ci technique is used in conjunction with Fei Tuo to quickly close in and kill enemies. Zhang Hao knows that his physical body is now several times stronger than most cultivators, and these two techniques are the ones that highlight his physical strength.

  Zhang Yuefeng hesitated, opening his mouth to speak but ultimately swallowing the words. Although his younger brother seemed more gentle and less lazy than before, with a better attitude when speaking, what he asked for was still non-negotiable! Zhang Yuefeng thought this and didn't say anything else, looking at Zhang Hao who was meditating with his eyes closed with some helplessness, and awkwardly walked out of the room.

  Inside the Tianfeng Cave Mansion, the Bagua mirror reflected a conversation between Zhang Hao and Zhang Yuefeng. Mu Rongxue's icy expression showed a faint smile at the corner of her mouth, but immediately returned to normal.
