C621 It's a Blessing Not a Curse
Clang!
The door to the pill room opened, and Jian Ao stepped out with the Bloodthirsty Sword. After that, the door closed once again. The door remained the same, but the interior was completely different. The entire building was destroyed. Even the Pill Cauldron that was stored within had a faint crack. One must know that. . . That was a peak three-cauldron Pill Cauldron, equivalent to a peak Low Grade Treasure Artifact. From this, it could be seen how powerful the destructive force of the Thunder Tribulation was.
However, all of these disappeared from everyone's sight as the door closed. Perhaps they could only wait until the moment Zhuge Liuyun opened the door to the pill room. Only then would the heaven filled with ravines appear in front of their eyes.
------
While the Bloodthirsty Sword was transcending its tribulation and fighting against the third Thunder Dragon, Zhuge Liuyun, who was cultivating with his legs crossed, suddenly opened his eyes. A ray of light that seemed to be illusory and real like a sword flashed through his eyes. He stood up, and his entire body produced a crackling sound.
If one's eyes were bright, one would discover that the current Zhuge Liuyun was completely different from the Zhuge Liuyun of the past. The current him seemed to be even more restrained, just like a hidden peerless sword. Once it erupted, it would definitely shock the heavens and earth, exceeding everyone's expectations.
Swoosh!
Just as Zhuge Liuyun was about to stretch his muscles and bones, the sound of air being torn could be heard. It was the Sect Master, Han Qing, who had hurried down from the main peak.
When he saw Zhuge Liuyun, the Sect Chief, Han Qing, had yet to step into the door when the questioning voice sounded. "Mr. Zhuge, what does that gushing sword intent mean?! Could it be that a divine sword has been born?!"
After saying these words, he had just stepped into the thatched hut, and his lips slightly lifted. "And it's above your Dan Peak. . . You. . . " Sect Master Han Qing's mouth was wide open. He looked at Zhuge Liuyun in disbelief. He had even forgotten the reason why he wanted to ask Zhuge Liuyun about it.
Zhuge Liuyun didn't have the slightest doubt or surprise when he saw the Sect Master appear in his thatched hut. Instead, he was calm. Clearly, he had already expected that the Sect Master would come. It was also because of this that all the experts of the older generation in the Heavenly Sword Sect, including those who were in seclusion in the Heavenly Sword Peak, were able to sense this. It would be Zhuge Liuyun's surprise if the Sect Master didn't come!
"Sect Chief, don't ask so quickly. It's still not too late for you to take a sip of tea first!"
The Sect Chief Han Qing's "disbelief" and his expression caused Zhuge Liuyun to sigh in his heart. He never expected that he would actually have a feeling at this moment, even though he had bitterly pursued the true meaning of martial arts for more than ten years. All of this was caused by that eighteen year old young man who was still refining pills.
Jian Ao was his lucky star!
Recalling the first time he met Jian Ao, Zhuge Liuyun's heart was also filled with joy. If it wasn't for him discovering such a good seedling ahead of time, perhaps he would never have been able to become a Grandmaster in his life!
At this moment, Zhuge Liuyun was only a step away from becoming a Grandmaster.
The Sect Chief, Han Qing, sat opposite of Zhuge Liuyun in a daze. He didn't see the cup of tea that Zhuge Liuyun placed in front of him. Instead, he looked at Zhuge Liuyun with a pair of bright eyes.
If it was in the past, with the Sect Chief staring at him like this, Zhuge Liuyun would definitely not be able to withstand the pressure and be defeated. However, from the moment he successfully refined the Bloodthirsty Sword and unleashed his sword intent until now, everything had changed. He would not be defeated.
Zhuge Liuyun smiled slightly and said indifferently, "Sect Chief, you are not mistaken. My cultivation base has advanced a step further!"
"Hua!"
Even though he already had an answer in his heart, he still couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air when he heard the confirmation. He suddenly stood up. His voice was trembling even though he didn't notice it. "Boil it for elder brother. You didn't lie to me, right?"
Zhuge Liuyun shook his head. If anyone else dared to doubt his words, he would definitely slap them to death. However, this "him" was the Sect Master who had accompanied him for more than ten years. It was impossible for him to slap him to death.
He also knew why the latter would do this. He was completely worried about him. One should know that after more than ten years of hard work, he still couldn't break through. Even those with strong minds would be disappointed to the extreme. He would no longer have any trace of hope. However, there was a sign of a breakthrough now. How could one not be shocked when the lamp of hope was lit once again!
"Mr. Zhuge, what do you mean by nodding and shaking your head?! You don't know how to hold back your words! If you don't say it, not only will you feel uncomfortable listening to it, you will feel even worse! "
The Sect Master said angrily.
"Nodding my head, it is true that my cultivation base is one step closer. Shaking my head, it is because I have yet to break through to the Grandmaster Stage!" Zhuge Liuyun said in a calm and composed manner. Seeing the disappointment in the Sect Chief's eyes, Zhuge Liuyun stroked his beard and smiled. "However, after I settle down for half a month, I will be able to break through successfully. "
"Elder brother, you!" The disappointment of the Sect Master was quickly swept away and was replaced by joy. He was happy for Zhuge Liuyun, and he was even happy for the addition of another grandmaster in the Heavenly Sword Sect. The Heavenly Sword Sect itself was the biggest sect in the Wind Domain, and its strength was far greater than any other sect. Now that there was an additional Quasi-Sword Sect, its strength naturally rose to a whole new level. It allowed the Heavenly Sword Sect to become stronger and stronger. To prosper and prosper was his greatest wish.
The Sect Chief, Han Qing, was also a man who had seen great storms and waves. When other people broke through to the Sword Sect, he would at most congratulate them, but he would never show such an expression. The reason was that Zhuge Liuyun, who was also a master and a friend, was the one who broke through.
"I was wondering why there would be a boundless sword intent gushing out. It turns out that it was you, Mr. Zhuge, who comprehended the Dao overnight. This is truly worthy of celebration! I will immediately pass down my order to let the Heavenly Sword Sect know about this matter, and let everyone celebrate it. " It was obvious that the Sect Chief was very happy that Zhuge Liuyun was able to break through to the next realm.
Zhuge Liuyun quickly stopped the Sect Chief. He said in a deep voice, "Celebrate? Celebrate everyone? Isn't it too early? I merely took a step forward, although I'm still a step away from the Sword Sect. I'm also confident that I'll be able to completely step into it within ten days or half a month, but. . . In my opinion, there's no need to celebrate and let everyone in the world know! "
The Sect Master wanted to say something else, but seeing the determination in Zhuge Liuyun's eyes, he said," Alright. As my elder brother said, I will announce the results of your breakthrough to the world. "
Zhuge Liuyun was quite happy to see the Sect Chief accept his suggestion. However, he still told the truth. "Although my martial arts has improved, the sword intent that gushed out is not because of me, but because of someone else. Furthermore, the reason why I was able to improve further was entirely because of him. Otherwise, I'm afraid that I'll be stuck at the Sword King for the rest of my life. "
"Oh? Him!" The Sect Leader frowned. He had already guessed who he was.
Zhuge Liuyun said in a serious tone, "Sect Chief, his existence is the blessing of our Heavenly Sword Sect, not the misfortune of our Heavenly Sword Sect!"
