Limitless - Chapter 232: Ancient Divine Stone Statue

What a terrifying punch!

Over the past few days, Chu Yu had been studying mostly unarmed combat techniques.

Through the Superclass’s help to combine and improve the techniques, these had all combined to become something uniquely Chu Yu’s.

This punch looked quite simple, but the plump youth felt like he was completely rooted to the spot!

He was unable to dodge it!

In exasperation, he channeled all the energy in his body into his arm and punched at Chu Yu’s fist.

Bang!

After a dull impact, there was the crisp sound of bone cracking.

This slightly plump youth’s fist... disappeared!

"Ow!" The plump youth had not expected his opponent to be this powerful. His fist was completely shattered and the pain made him beg for death as he howled.

At the same time, the golden blade was also sent flying by Chu Yu’s Divine Punisher Blade.

It must be said that the golden blade was also a treasure. It was able to withstand two blows from the replica Divine Punisher Blade.

Chu Yu was like a war god. After punching the plump youth, he once again used the Racing Sacred Art.

He chased after the golden blade, open his mouth, and sucked!

The golden blade hovered in the air for a while before all its energy was sucked into Chu Yu’s stomach. 

The energy replenished and energized Chu Yu, increasing his battle power.

He immediately sent the youth with the mole flying.

In the blink of an eye, all four of them were defeated!

The only lady, Dong Xiaoyan, was captured. The plump youth had his fist smashed, the icy youth had his arm chopped off and the youth with a mole was sent flying.

All of them lost their immense battle power.

After being defeated, they tried to escape, but they were all captured and sealed by Chu Yu.

The four youths were all stunned.

The hate and poisonous glow in their eyes was gone, all that was left was shock and fear.

"We are all from superior schools, let us go, we will not do this again." The plump youth lowered his head in shame.

His fist was completely smashed and the immense pain made him feel like fainting.

It was a good thing he was a powerful cultivator. Any ordinary person would not be able to withstand such injuries. 

Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian dragged the four of them towards the ancient divine stone statue.

On the way there, Chu Yu asked Xu Xiaoxian if she knew that the ancient divine stone statue was acting strangely.

Xu Xiaoxian smiled and remained silent.

Chu Yu was so angry he rolled his eyes. If this girl was so innocent, she wouldn’t be Xu Xiaoxian.

It was a good thing they met these unlucky people, else, they would be the unlucky ones

"Aiya, it’s just a legend, it may not be true," Xu Xiaoxian chirped.

Just a legend?

May not be true?

Chu Yu rolled his eyes.

These four unlucky ones were on the brink of breaking as they neared the ancient divine stone statue.

The second one to admit his mistake was the icy young man. His eyes no longer had that cold glow and his expression was pained.

His arm was smashed. Even though it had stopped bleeding, the pain, discomfort and psychological hurt was relatively large.

Afterall, they were some of the best talents in the Mirror World. Even though they were not the most superior talents, they were not far off.

To come into the Devastated World and have such misfortune befall them was not the end they wanted.

They didn’t even think about it.

The youth with the mole and the lady, Dong Xiaoyan, also drooped their heads and begged for their lives.

But Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian ignored them.

What did they do before? And now they’re begging for their lives?

In the air, there were sporadic rays of energy flying by, glowing in various colors. They looked quite pretty, but these were quite dangerous.

Along the way, these four unlucky ones were hit a few times by the energy rays and the sustained serious injuries.

They finally stumbled their way to the ancient divine stone statue.

From afar, Chu Yu saw a huge stone statue rising from the horizon.

It was at least 200m high!

The stone statue was extremely ancient and the surface showed years of abuse. Upon closer inspection, the statue was filled with slashes and hacks!

Some were over half a meter in depth whilst others were shallow.

The stone statue exuded an aura of time, but other than that, there was no suppressive aura.

Xu Xiaoxian looked at the four of them, then kicked he butt of the youth with a mole, "Go, go and see what’s in store for you!"

"Why me?"

At this point, none of them wanted to be the first.

They had already heard of news about this stone statue. Some had managed to gain incredible sacred arts from it whilst others had bad luck befall them. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com  

Some even died here!

No one knew why, but those with bad luck would lose memory of that period after the entire incident. 

They could not understand what happened.

Furthermore, the lost memory could not be recovered!  

Even a saint could not find out what happened then.

"If you don’t go, I’ll kill you." Xu Xiaoxian said coldly.

The youth with the mole was on the verge of tears. He cried, "Senior, I know my mistake... please let me go."

"Who is your senior?" Xu Xiaoxian replied coldly, "Go now, or I’ll kill you right away!"

The four of them thought of Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian as mature powers. They knew the talents of their generation and the techniques of these two did not match any of them. 

When Chu Yu used the Gluttonous Sacred Art, he was thought of as a demon power.

The four of them used the Voice Transmission Technique to communicate amongst themselves. They surmised that these two were demon powers who managed to sneak in with the crowd.

Out of the Devastated World, they must be extremely powerful cultivators.

In exasperation, the youth with the mole could only bite his lips and walk towards the stone statue.

He looked like the walking dead.

"You may even get some great benefits from this." Xu Xiaoxian encouraged.

The youth with the mole thought so too, If I really do, you two will be dead!

He finally reached the base of the stone statue.

The stone statue was enormous and he looked like an ant standing under it.

He grit his teeth and placed his hand on the toe of the statue.

Bang!

His body exploded!

Even his Nascent Soul shattered in this moment!

His soul scattered!

Everyone became silent in that instant!

Chu Yu glanced at Xu Xiaoxian, "Is this what you mean by... there may not be danger?"

Xu Xiaoxian also paled and frowned slightly. She murmured, "This isn’t right? Under normal circumstances, this shouldn’t happen?"

The other three were scared sh*tless, rage and fear filling up their eyes. 

They also felt that something was amiss.

Never before had a cultivator been killed by the stone statue immediately.

From beginning to end, the stone statue did not exude any aura or energy.

It just stood there imposingly.

Other than that, nothing else could be felt.

Chu Yu tried to use his vertical eye to take a look at the stone statue.

"Argh!"

He grunted and retreated a couple of steps.

Blood flowed from his forehead. 

Xu Xiaoxian was shocked and she looked at Chu Yu, "What happened to you?"

The other three also looked at Chu Yu with fear.

"I’m fine... just a slight headache." Chu Yu wiped off the blood on his forehead and sighed.

He got the shock of his life when he looked at the stone statue!

Under the observation of his vertical eye, how could the ordinary looking stone statue still look ordinary?

It was clearly an extremely powerful deity!

It was contained within the statue and glowed with a glaring, intense light!

This level of suppression was something Chu Yu had never felt before.

It was almost as if he was face to face with a god!

Chu Yu felt like he was going to die after just a single peep!

The blood from his forehead was a result of his vertical eye taking a hit and piercing his forehead!

This stone statue... is rather weird indeed!

How long has it been here? Why does it still react this way?

Chu Yu was incredibly shocked.

Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu with confusion. She knew that Chu Yu was not simple and had a lot of secrets. He also had some methods to preserve life.

Seeing Chu Yu injured made her think twice about her plan.

She kicked the plump youth, "You, go!"

"Can... I not go?" The plump youth was on the verge of crumbling, tears streaming down his face. 

"Then I will kill you now!" Xu Xiaoxian said sinisterly.

The plump youth shrunk and sniffled, "okay... I’ll go now?"

Then, he stepped towards the statue apprehensively  

When he arrived, he placed his remaining hand on the statue.

At this point, something miraculous happened!

The plump youth’s body glowed with a faint light. At the same time, the statue flowed too, almost in response.

Hum!

A light hum ensued and the youth’s a new hand began to grow from his wound!

At the same time, all the seals on his body were released in that instant!
  
"Haha, I’ve actually recovered!"

He looked extremely surprised as he laughed out loudly.

Then... he turned and ran!

He did not benefit, but he regained his freedom!

As he ran, he hollered, "Seniors, I will go and find help for you all right now!"

Chu Yu retrieved the Spirit Stunning Bow and fired it at the plump youth!

Based on his cultivation level, he could launch terrifying attacks with the Spirit Stunning Bow 

A bright ray of light cut through the air!

In the next moment, an extremely humongous turtle shell, over a hundred meters in diameter, appeared on the youth’s back!

Bang!

The attack from the Spirit Stunning Bow impacted the turtle shell.

The plump youth took the opportunity to gain some distance. He kept the turtle shell and disappeared without a trace.

Xu Xiaoxian’s lips twitched, "Recovered? How naive!"

Then, she looked at Dong Xiaoyan, "Your turn!"
Limitless

Limitless - Chapter 231: 2 VS 4

After having been energized and hyped, the group of Mirror World talents strode through the doors of the Devastated World.

After entering, Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian rushed off in a particular direction.

Chu Yu saw Yan Xudong bring Ling Shi, together with the other tier one school talents, in another direction.

Clearly, they had their own targets too.

This piece of the Devastated World had been open for quite some time. As such, where the various legacies were had been mapped out and the top schools had some ideas on where to find what they wanted.

Xu Xiaoxian was extremely quick, almost as if she did not want anyone to know where she was heading to.


As such, not only was she extremely secretive in her movements, she kept changing identities.

In the end, she and Chu Yu looked like two complete strangers!

This time, there were over a thousand people entering the Devastated World and there was no way of recognizing everyone.

This place was too big!

It looked like it was within the Mirror World, but they were two different entities.

Furthermore, even though this was only one corner of the ancient world, it had an incredibly large area.

Xu Xiaoxian also had quite powerful techniques. It was almost as if she wanted to race Chu Yu as she sped along.

She flew by like a rocket and appeared in the distance in the blink of an eye.

Chu Yu used the Racing Sacred Art and followed behind without much trouble.

If the two of them were to fight now, Chu Yu did not have much confidence. Xu Xiaoxian seemed to have some trump cards hidden away.

But in terms of speed, Chu Yu was not disadvantaged at all. 

The spiritual energy in the Devastated World was weak and there was virtually no life. 

Looking out, the entire area looked bleak and lifeless.


Chu Yu had already followed Xu Xiaoxian for over two hours and she showed no signs of stopping.

At this point, they saw a few figures in the distance.

Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian found the traces of the group at the same time the group found them.  

Then, the group came charging over.

Xu Xiaoxian stopped in her tracks and used the Voice Transmission Technique, "Not friendly!"

Chu Yu could already feel it.

He recognized these people. They were from second tier schools.

In the championship, they were outstanding talents.

The three males and one girl were also extremely quick.

They stopped in front of the two of them and sized Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian up.

One of them was a youth about 18-19 years old. He was dark skinned and had a huge mole at his forehead, making him look a little weird.

He looked at Xu Xiaoxian and Chu Yu and asked, "Which school are you all from? Why do you all look so foreign?"

Xu Xiaoxian had taken on the appearance of an ordinary and freckled girl.

Chu Yu was an ordinary looking youth of medium build.

Xu Xiaoxian looked at the group of them, "What business do you have?"

The other rather handsome but icy youth in his twenties said flatly, "You must be here for that ancient stone statue? That statue is ours."

Xu Xiaoxian scoffed, "What a joke, can you take it away?"

"No." The youth looked coldly at Xu Xiaoxian, "But I don’t want you two seemingly dodgy people to get it."

Xu Xiaoxian looked on mockingly, "Since you know about the ancient statue, then you should know that it’s unknown what kind of opportunity you would be given! Do you have nothing better to do?"

"Who are you talking about?" The cold youth looked at Xu Xiaoxian with hatred.

"Okay, enough, stop faking, tell us, what do you want to do?" Xu Xiaoxian stopped smiling and looked at these four people icily.

Chu Yu could feel that they had other motives too.

He wanted to spite them, Bunch of new students with no experience, so full of sh*t!

"Surrender to us!" The girl could not take it any longer and shouted, "The ancient stone statue is quite strange, we want you to explore it first!"

Then, she immediately attacked Xu Xiaoxian! 

In her view, this ugly girl was much easier to defeat.

This girl used extremely underhand methods. She looked like she was lunging at Xu Xiaoxian, but she was actually offering up a silver string!

The silver string was extremely quick and looked like a silver ray of light!

It went straight for Xu Xiaoxian!

Xu Xiaoxian glared icily, then a sudden glow of light appeared on her fingers as she swiped at the string.

"Restrain!"

The girl bellowed.

Shing!

Xu Xiaoxian’s finger and the silver string contacted and the shrill sound of metal grinding against each other rang out.

The girl chuckled icily, "Naive... what?"

Before she could finish her sentence, the silver string broke with a snap!

It was cut in half and fell to the ground!

Afterwhich, Xu Xiaoxian lunged at the girl.

She raised her palm and slapped her!

"B*tch!"

Pa!

A crisp sound rang out.

The girl was slapped by Xu Xiaoxian.

Then, she was choked.

"Stop!"

"Let her go!"

"Go to hell!"

The other three males raged and surrounded Xu Xiaoxian.

Xu Xiaoxian quickly and efficiently sealed this girl.

Then she kicked her and said coldly, "If you don’t want her to die, stay where you are!" 

"What do you want to do? Quickly let her go!" The male with the mole bellowed icily.

Xu Xiaoxian choked the sealed girl and said coldly, "I heard that the ancient stone statue is quite strange, let me send her to explore it!"

"How dare you!" The youth with the mole bellowed, "She is a talented disciple of the Green Willow School!"

The Green Willow School was a tier two school, ranked 16 in the Mirror World.

 

They were relatively famous in the Mirror World.

This lady was named Dong Xiaoyan and she was a Supreme Realm cultivator.

She would not have been defeated by Xu Xiaoxian this easily under normal circumstances. However, she was inexperienced and underestimated her opponent.

Xu Xiaoxian also had very powerful magical equipment capable of suppressing cultivators of similar cultivation level. When she got up close, she activated them before attacking.

"Yo, how scary, my heart is beating so hard." Xu Xiaoxian exaggerated her expression, then laughed coly, "We are already so dodgy, do we care which school you’re from?"

At this point, Dong Xiaoyan, whose face was half swollen, dangled from Xu Xiaoxian’s hand, but she was still incredibly stubborn.

"There are only 50 schools here. When the time comes, we just have to eliminate them one by one... and we’ll know which school you’re from!"

"And then what?" Xu Xiaoxian said sinisterly.

"Senior Dong, don’t say anything!" The youth with the mole said, then looked at Xu Xiaoxian, "What do you want before you’ll let her go?"

"What a joke." Xu Xiaoxian’s lips twitched, "We did not antagonize you, but you came to challenge us. Wait, not challenge, but rob us of our expedition. Now that your partner is captured, you want us to release her so easily? Are you the owner of the Mirror World? Must everyone listen to you?"

The group was silent.

A white skinned and slightly plump youth looked at Xu Xiaoxian and said, "Senior, we were wrong, tell us, what must we do before you will release her?"

As he spoke, he used the Voice Transmission Technique to have his two partners attack Chu Yu... and take him down!

Xu Xiaoxian also communicated to Chu Yu, "They’re coming for you."

At this point, the youth with the mole offered up a magical equipment. It was a golden sword and it flew straight at Chu Yu’s left shoulder.

That plump youth also offered up a magical equipment. It looked like something made from gold and it flew towards Chu Yu’s right shoulder.

The third youth charged towards Chu Yu. In the blink of an eye, he pulled out an ancient sword and chopped at Chu Yu’s legs.

Chu Yu used the Racing Sacred Art and disappeared from his original spot. Then, he took out the replica Divine Punisher Blade and chopped at the gold blade from the youth with the mole.

Bong!

A deafening clash rang out.
  
Chu Yu retreated a few steps.

At this moment, that golden item smashed towards Chu Yu at an incredible speed!

It locked onto Chu Yu and followed him everywhere.

It penetrated Chu Yu’s protective energy and closed in on Chu Yu’s right shoulder.

At the critical moment, Chu Yu dodged to the sight and the golden item brushed past Chu Yu’s shoulder.

Zoom!

Chu Yu’s clothes were torn apart and pain radiated from his shoulder. The terrifying energy from this metal bangle tore a wound in his shoulder.

Blood flowed out from the wound.

At this point, the icy young man arrived!

The sword in his hand swiped at Chu Yu’s legs mercilessly.

The blade had an icy glow and looked incredibly sharp!


Chu Yu retreated a few steps, right into the sword.

F*ck me!

What a bunch of f*ckers!

Other than the inexperienced lady who was taken down so easily by Xu Xiaoxian, these three guys were incredibly vicious!

Clearly, this was not the first time they were doing this.

Chu Yu adjusted the terrifying energy in his body and channeled them all into his feet. He then maximised the Racing Sacred Art!

With a ‘zoom!’ his figure shot into the sky like a cannonball.

  
Then, he used the Gluttonous Sacred Art and sucked at the golden bangle rushing towards him!

The energy from the golden bangle was instantly absorbed by Chu Yu.

After the slightly plump youth controlling the golden bangle gasped, his expression changed and he looked at Chu Yu in aghast, "You’re a demon!"

At this point, Chu Yu’s replica Divine Punisher Blade chopped down at the icy young man!

Recently, Chu Yu had cooped himself up in the libraries of the Sky Dazed School, studying tons of techniques.


As such, right now, his sword techniques were way better than before, and he was extremely adept at wielding a sword!

Chu Yu’s actions were also incredibly quick, and he had great strength. This swipe had severed the hand of the icy youth.

"Ah!"

This young man screamed in pain, his face contorting as he retreated.


The youth with the mole once again directed the golden blade at Chu Yu.


This time... he directed it at Chu Yu’s forehead!

They realized that this man seemed even scarier than the lady!

Chu Yu’s body was like a phantom. His speed was incredible and he wielded the replica Divine Punisher Blade in hand as he chopped down on the golden blade.

At the same time, he dodged to the side and charged at the slightly plump youth.

He raised his fist and punched!
Limitless

Limitless - Chapter 230: Yan Xudong

The chaotic energy was dense and it was impossible to see what lay within. A plane of light separated the two worlds.

Someone in the group said, "Is this the ancient world? It had a clear cultural break from our world?"

"I think the Devastated World isn’t that ancient. For all you know, it was ravaged by the saints back in the day." Someone joked.

Anyone here would easily be some of the most talented in the Mirror World.

They did not fear saints as much as others and did not feel intimidated enough to stop joking around.

"I think not." Yan Xudong said slowly and deliberately.

The entire crowd went silent. No matter what, he was the most powerful youth in the Mirror World and a True Lord Realm cultivator.

Even though he was still young, his abilities and experience were greater and better than any of his peers.

The one who just joked was a tier two school talent.

A cultivator at the pinnacle of the Supreme Realm.

He looked at Yan Xudong humbly, "Does Senior Yan know something about the Devastated World?"

Yan Xudong said, "I once read an ancient record which said that all the devastated worlds in the Mirror World were at least billions of years old. Furthermore, these worlds were once Immortal Worlds."

Everyone was stunned by this revelation.

Chu Yu was also in awe, It was indeed different to be the disciple of the top school. He had access to such records?

"Senior Yan is wise, can you tell us more?" Someone added.

  

Yan Xudong smiled, "Why not?"

Then, he explained more about the world before the Mirror World.

Even Xu Xiaoxian was engrossed.

 

Clearly, even Xu Xiaoxian had not heard about these.

 

According to Yan Xudong, the Immortal Worlds were once incredibly powerful and prosperous.

Much bigger than the Mirror World!

"The records say that it was once a limitless world and the Village of Cultivation paled in comparison."

"That was an incredibly illustrious time and the various beasts all hit the pinnacle of cultivation and were termed immortal animals and divine beasts! They were some of the most powerful beings in their original state!"  noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

They were all still youths, even though they had high cultivation levels, they were not as mature as their seniors.

Yan Xudong described what he had read about this prosperous era in great detail.

He spoke freely, possibly thinking that everyone there was ‘on the same side’.

"Everyone here knows that the cultivators in the Solar System have a mysterious Dao that allows them to improve faster than others. Everyone here also knows that by killing the aborigines of the Solar System, we can gain Dao and get closer to..."

Chu Yu hid amongst the crowd, his gaze icy.

Kill the aborigines...

Well said!

After entering the Mirror World, Chu Yu had matured a lot.

If this was the Chu Yu of old, he may have acted rashly and revealed his intent to murder.

If he had done that, it would definitely be felt.

"The Solar System has saint legacies in abundance and all sorts of superior resources... weapons and treasures left behind by the powers. But this is just one side of it."

Yan Xudong’s stance was commandeering and he asked, "Do you all know why so many saints wanted to attack the Solar System and sacrifice their lives in the process?"

"Isn’t it so that us, their descendants, can have an easier path towards sainthood?" Someone in the crowd said.

"That is just one reason, but it is not the most important one." Yan Xudong smiled faintly, "The main reason is, those saints wanted to become Immortals!"

This silenced the crowd.

Immortal!

This was a mysterious and cryptic topic.

It was not forbidden.

 

Because it was too far fetched!

Even the best talents just wished to become saints one day.

Once they made it to saint, they could last forever and become one of the masters of the universe!

Was this not enough?

What benefits did being an Immortal give?

Chu Yu was silent, he never expected that his own home was this powerful.

His understanding of his own home was worse than that of an outsider.

An enemy to be exact!

He smiled bitterly and thought of a saying, Sometimes, those who know you best are not your friends and family, but your enemies!

This was applicable even in the grand scheme of things.

 

He only knew one facet of his own home.

But these people who wanted to attack his home had done much research and planning.

Yan Xudong felt the awe of the crowd and said flatly, "I am a big fan of history, so I read these ancient records in my free time. That’s why I only know a little more than all of you. To be honest, I don’t know much about Immortals, I only know that they are an entity many times stronger than a saint."

He paused, then continued, "Saints... are known as the masters of the universe, the people who set the rules. But whilst the saints can set rules, they cannot break them! For example, we all know that the Mirror World was formed by our ancestors using an incredibly powerful technique. But once the world forms, it has its own set of rules. Even the saints who formed the world must abide by these rules! They do not have the power to break them!"

Everyone looked at him seriously.

Yan Xudong continued, "But Immortals can break these rules easily! They can form and annihilate worlds with a single notion! The endless universe is just their playground. Time is meaningless."

"Brother Yan, I don’t mean to interrupt, but I have a question." Qin Wei, from the ninth ranked Grand Distance School said suddenly.

 

Yan Xudong recognized Qin Wei and nodded warmly, "Junior Qin, please go ahead."

"Senior Yan has told us that Immortals are beings many times more powerful than the saints, capable of destroying and creating worlds at their whim. But I don’t understand, why would this world become devastated. Are you saying that there are even more powerful beings?"

Qin Wei’s question had been bugging many of them too.

Even Chu Yu thought about it.

Yan Xudong nodded, "That’s a good question and the records that I read implied that too. Of course, that is what I read and does not represent my views."

Then, he looked at the crowd, "Saints don’t die, but Immortals are eternal. We live in a world that is both perishable and non-eternal. As such, after some time... of course this time would be very long, billions or even trillions of years... anyways, it’s of little importance to us."

Everyone laughed lightly.

Exactly, billions or even trillions of years were of little significance to the people here.

"That ancient record said that there is a type of catastrophe that is targeted at Immortals, the Immeasurable Catastrophe. We are unable to find out what it means though.

Yan Xudong continued, "Every time the Immeasurable Catastrophe arrives, even Immortals are affected. No one is spared. This is a way to even out the playing field. After all, the Immortal Realm is too advanced. However, energy is limited and the universe must maintain balance. If someone is about to disrupt this balance, it could mean that an Immeasurable Catastrophe is looming."

Yan Xudong’s words were completely foreign to Chu Yu.

Xu Xiaoxian was also listening intently.

She used the Voice Transmission Technique to speak to Chu Yu, "If we have the chance, we must develop ourselves in the Sky Dazed School, and we must be part of the most stellar talents. Only then can we easily access information not known to us before."

Yan Xudong continued, "As such, the Solar System is a very special place. It is said that there is a direct path there that will bring you into the Immortal Realm!"

Yan Xudong had just dropped a bomb on all of them.

"There is also another piece of relatively reliable information. Back then, during the attack on the Solar System, one of our ancestors, a powerful saint, saw... someone disappear on the path to Immortality in the Solar System with his own eyes! However, in the moment he disappeared, the entire Solar System’s Dao increased manifold and Immortal Rain fell to the Earth!"

Everyone looked at Yan Xudong, stunned.

Someone murmured, "He saw someone become an Immortal? This... is unbelivable, what is Immortal Rain?"

Yan Xudong explained, "In the records left behind by that ancestor, that Immortal Rain will let any cultivator below the level of Divine Lord raise their cultivation level by one rank!"

Hiss!

Everyone gasped.

This was incredible.

Unimaginable!

Seeing someone become an Immortal with your own eyes, then Immortal Rain that could help cultivators in the Divine Lord Realm and below breakthrough?

Even Chu Yu was awed by what he heard.

He murmured to himself, Could this guy be bragging?

But little people thought that way.

With Yan Xudong’s status, he had no need to brag.

Yan Xudong looked at all their shocked expressions and smiled faintly, "Actually, I only have one purpose for telling all of you this."

Everyone’s expressions became stern.

Yan Xudong said, "Just like what my senior had said just now, we are all on the same side! We are all the talents of the Mirror World! We... have the same goals and ideas. As such, we are not enemies. In the near future, we will be the closest brothers in arms, fighting alongside each other!"

Everyone roared their approval.

Chu Yu laughed icily in his heart, Young man, how naive, who is on your side? I am from Earth! And I am here to destroy you!

"I hope that after we all enter the devastated world, no matter what kind of opportunities we get, even if we get...." Yan Xudong’s expression became stern, "But finder’s keepers! All of you better not try anything funny. If I find out, I will not let you off!"

Xu Xiaoxian used the Voice Transmission Technique and laughed, "He wants to be the leader, later let’s give him some trouble."

This was the first time Chu Yu agreed to Xu Xiaoxian’s suggestion so readily.

"Sure thing!"

Limitless - Chapter 229: Arriving in the Devastated World

The entire cultivation world valued bloodline greatly.

Blood, body makeup were all congenital.

A powerful bloodline and body makeup would give you a headstart.

All of the Heaven’s Pride talents were people with extraordinary bloodlines and bodily makeup.

 

If it was a discussion purely on bloodlines and bodily makeup, then the life forms in the world did not differ greatly.

It wasn’t that the cultivators from the Village of Cultivation were more superior in terms of blood and bodily makeup when compared with the Heaven’s Pride Talents of the world.

The key was that the bloodlines of the cultivators from the Village of Cultivation had a very mystical Dao!

This was the added advantage of the Village of Cultivation!

This is a strand of Dao that other cultivators would go crazy over.

They wanted to massacre cultivators from the Solar System just to gain this Dao.

As such, the Crane Saint surmised in the Immortal Crane Pill Scripture that once all the seals in the Solar System were broken, the cultivation speed of cultivators there would far exceed everyone else!

This statement gave Chu Yu quite the confidence boost.

Else, he really felt helpless when faced with the Heaven’s Pride talents of the Mirror World.

Furthermore, the Mirror World was full of powerful cultivators.

There were also countless powers hiding in the shadows.

If the Solar System cultivators did not have any special advantage, they would be completely annihilated when the seal is broken and the Mirror World launches their second attack.

But now, we still have hope!

Chu Yu thought to himself.

The humongous flying saucer kept flying through the air. By this time, it was already reaching speeds past Mach 10, and it was still accelerating.

The vast expanse of the Mirror World flashed by below them.

 Some of their mountain ranges were millions, and even tens of millions, miles in length!

Occasionally, they would also spot flocks of flying beasts flying along the mountain range.

This was a world that hid many secrets.

After three days of flying, the saucer was in the depths of the Mirror World.

 

It started to slow down.

Over the past few days, Chu Yu had been reading and understanding the pill recipes at the back of the Immortal Crane Pill Scripture.

He kept finding things that surprised and awed him.

  

Many of the pills and medicine were completely foreign to him.

Before this, Chu Yu had never expected that one could use pills to form a magical formation with tremendous power!

Many of those pills were pills that Chu Yu could not refine at his current cultivation level.

Other than understanding the pill refining techniques and the medicine, the cultivator’s level and power was incredibly important too!

 

Chu Yu realized that he was extremely talented in the pill refining field.

Of course, he would not give up his pursuits in battle cultivation.

The Crane Saint had expressed his regret for focusing his time and energy to pill refining, neglecting his battle cultivation.

If he had been just as good in battle, then he could probably take down against tens, or even a hundred saints in battle.

"I want to be able to do that too!"

Chu Yu thought to himself.

Xu Xiaoxian virtually slept through the three days.

She woke up, then fell asleep, woke up, then fell asleep.

Chu Yu wondered to himself, Does she cultivate through sleeping?

Xu Xiaoxian stretched, then yawned. She turned her head to look at Chu Yu, "Are we there yet?"

"Almost." Chu Yu replied.

Qin Wei finally learnt his lesson and didn’t try to talk to them.

Inside the flying saucer, all the other delegates from the school remained silent.

Devastated World.

They all thought that they were just visiting a set of ruins.

But this place was incredibly dangerous, and the threats here would make anyone tremble with fear.

Even though the Devastated World they were entering was explored before, there were many cultivators who were laid to rest whilst exploring these ruins.

Completely destroyed.

In the moment it reached the Devastated World, the flying saucer descended. Looking out the window, one could feel a magnificent aura from the surroundings.

 

They could feel the age and aura through the windows of the saucer.

It felt like something from the ancient times had touched the hearts of those in the saucer.

 

There were some powerful cultivators from the Sky Dazed School who were leading this expedition. In the moment the flying saucer landed, they stepped out to remind everyone.

"In the Devastated World, there are a multitude of opportunities, but dangers are everywhere as well! I do not dare wish for teamwork and cooperation, but please do not kill each other."

He surveyed his surroundings and said, "You are the future of the Mirror World, and you carry the responsibility of attacking the Village of Cultivation. We are all old, all we can do is to guide you along and ensure that you grow up safely."

"Furthermore, you are all the top talents of the Mirror World. I will now reveal some information to you in advance."

He paused slightly, then said, "After so many years of hard work, the seals on the Village of Cultivation are beginning to loosen. We estimate that a path to it can be paved in three years time."

Excitement was plastered over most of their faces.

  

Xu Xiaoxian was relatively expressionless and didn’t react.

  

Chu Yu’s heart sank.

This man continued, "However, that path... can only be accessed by cultivators in the True Lord Realm and below. But it’s alright, before long, the breach will get bigger and more powerful cultivators can pass through."

"And you all... will be the first batch to enter!"

Everyone’s breathed harder and faster.

They all knew what being the first batch to attack meant!

They could do as they please and massacre the entire Village of Cultivation!

They could hoard the resources there and the Dao from the bodies of the people they killed!

 

They could also collect and hoard the legacies left behind by the powerful saints!

Chu Yu’s heart turned cold, rage building up in his gut.

But he suppressed it.

"As such, this expedition into the Devastated World is a good opportunity for all of you. I hope that you all will expand your horizons and be more accepting of each other!’

Even though his voice was not loud, it was clear and motivating.

He smiled, "This is because, all of you have a future in the Village of Cultivation!"

Chu Yu could clearly feel the passion building up in all their bloods!

Chu Yu maintained a superficial smile, but his heart was cold.

Xu Xiaoxian’s gaze swept over Chu Yu. I wonder how this guy is feeling now? I’m guessing he intends to kill all of the youthful talents here?

Then, the doors opened and everyone rushed out.

As his feet landed on the ground, Chu Yu shut both his eyes, his vertical eye sprinting into action. He looked out for hundreds of miles and saw the Devastated World, covered by a chaotic ball of energy.

He was already calming down.

He only had two motives on this mission.

First, he wanted to find more opportunities to raise his own cultivation level and battle power.

Then, if he had the chance... kill more of his enemies!

As for who his enemies were... anyone other than Xu Xiaoxian was his enemy!

There may be one other exception.

That was Lin Shi.

Chu Yu did not expect that she would come on this expedition!

Ever since she found a new master, she had not shown herself. On this trip over here, Chu Yu did not see her either.

He didn’t expect her to have such an opportunity in a talent saturated school like the Sky Dazed School.

This showed how much her master, the Butterfly Dance Immortal, valued her.

Chu Yu stood far away from Lin Shi, but he could still feel that mystical aura from her body.

There were also tones of iciness.

Beside Lin Shi was a handsome young man. He was over 1.9m in height and he suppressed all of his aura.

His eyes were full of life!

Yan Xudong!

The number one talent of the Sky Dazed School!

He was already a True Lord Realm cultivator!

He was the number one ranked Heaven’s Pride talent in the entire Mirror World!

He did not even participate in this edition of the championship.

If he did, even Xu Xiaoxian would not stand a chance.

It was said that he had already attained the small circle of Worldly Heaven Technique.

All these years, no one had seen him use a weapon.

However, it was said that Yan Xudong was most adept at using a spear.

Chu Yu looked at Lin Shi complicatedly from afar. He knew that Lin Shi had indeed cleansed her memory and emotions.

The pain in his heart grew as he knew that Lin Shi no longer recognized him.

He suppressed the urge to rush up and talk to her.

Other than those two, the other tier one schools all sent their top talents.

These tier one schools formed a little clique and engaged in small talk, ignoring the rest.

 

Every now and then, the disciples from, the tier two and three schools would look over in envy.

At this point, the Sky Dazed School cultivator in charge of this expedition announced, "We will wait here for your return. You have three months! After three months, we will leave. If you plan to stay here for more than three months, you will have to make your own way back."

Everyone listened quietly.

Then, this powerful cultivator nodded, "Okay then, good luck!"

All of them moved towards the Devastated World.

Xu Xiaoxian walked next to Chu Yu and used the Voice Transmission Technique, "After we enter, follow me. I know a place with a great opportunity. If you can understand it, you will be rewarded with a superior sacred art!"

Chu Yu nodded and whispered, "Thank you."

Xu Xiaoxian smiled, "You must be careful of these people."

Then, she looked at the group of students from the tier one schools, "Even though they look harmless, each one of them is a vicious, evil killer!"

"You seem to know them very well?" Chu Yu asked.

"Yup, before I entered the Solar System, I spent time in all the top 10 schools." Xu Xiaoxian smiled and did not elaborate.

The journey was a few hundred miles, but this was nothing for these cultivators.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the entrance to the Devastated World.
Limitless

Limitless - Chapter 228: Secrets of the Immortal Crane Pill Scripture

After entering the flying saucer, he realized that the interior was quite ancient. Under than a few working screens, there weren’t very many high tech items.

The interior was spacious and comfortable.

Xu Xiaoxian was getting some shut-eye next to Chu Yu.

Her current appearance was that of the adorable girl when she entered the Sky Dazed School.

However, many people recognized her. She had used this identity to compete in five rounds!

Furthermore, virtually all her opponents in these five rounds were the top talents from tier two schools!

One of them was even a talent from a tier one school. He was named Qin Wei, and came from the ranked nine school, the Grand Distance School.

 

However, he lost after a single move from Xu Xiaoxian.

This time, Qin Wei had come on this expedition as well, and he was accompanied by a youthful lady.

Qin Wei coincidentally sat to the side of Xu Xiaoxian. Seeing that Xu Xiaoxian was resting, he smiled, "Senior is great, I lost that round handedly."

"Do you have something to say?" Xu Xiaoxian opened her eyes and blinked, looking slightly lost.

Qin Wei smiled in embarrassment, then continued, "Even though I lost this time, when I go back, I will work hard and surpass you!"

 

"Oh, then work hard." Xu Xiaoxian closed her eyes again, leaning back on the luxurious chair as she slept.

Chu Yu was expressionless, but he wanted to laugh his a**s off.

It was clear that Qin Wei wanted to get close with Xu Xiaoxian, but Xu Xiaoxian was steely and this made the scene quite awkward.

However, in front of so many talents from superior schools, he could not say much.

All he could do was turn over and talk to the young girl accompanying him, "What has junior prepared for this expedition to the Devastated World?"

This young girl was quite pretty and had the face of an infant. Her eyes were beady and lively, her brows were thin and her hair was mushroom shaped.

 

Hearing Qin Wei, she turned her head innocently, "Ah? Do you have something to say?"

"..." Qin Wei’s expression darkened and his lips twitched, "Nothing."

"Oh." The mushroom haired girl nodded then turned her head as she stared out the window.

Chu Yu felt that Qin Wei was slightly pitiful. He wanted to flirt, but that didn’t work. Then, when he tried to communicate with his own junior, he was rebuffed.

Silence is golden, this was an age old principle that could be used anywhere!

Never would he expect that Qin Wei would look at him, "I recognize you, you are the one responsible for the rise of the Purple Cloud, Song Hong!"

For this expedition, the superior schools could choose who they wanted to send.

As such, no one cared if the person coming was a teacher or a student.

The higher ranked the school, the less the participation from teachers. Virtually all of their representatives were their superior student talents.

However, amongst the tier three schools, many of them still sent their teachers.

  

Some of their teachers were once the top talents in the schools.

After the graduated, they chose to stay in the school. Some of them stayed for a couple of years, others for a couple of centuries. For some, they spent the rest of their lives in the school.

In the school, they had access to all sorts of cultivation resources. Furthermore, schools who could make it to tier three were no worse off than the largest countries.

Based on power and combine ability, the tier three schools were already a force to be reckoned with!

Chu Yu looked at Qin Wei and suddenly thought, What if I replied with, "Do you have something to say?"

Qin Wei would go crazy!

As such, Chu Yu only nodded faintly and said, "You flatter me."

"You don’t seem very old, but your pill refining skills are extraordinary. May I know where you are from?" Qin Wei asked Chu Yu.

Chu Yu shook his head, "That’s not convenient to say."

Qin Wei was once again rebuffed and he turned away, feeling like he chose the wrong place to sit.

The rest of the journey finished in silence.

The giant flying saucer cut through the air at unimaginable speeds. Millions of miles were covered in the blink of an eye.

But the Mirror World was so big it seemed almost boundless.

Not only did the flying saucer fly quickly, it was relatively quiet.

This flying saucer flew at a speed many times the speed of sound and covered gargantuan distances in a single breath.

Initially, those who recognized each other still chatted a little bit.

But as time went on, the atmosphere became more and more silent.

Chu Yu was catching some shut eye, silently trying to internalize what he had learnt from the Immortal Crane Pill Scripture.

He was stunned!

He had already thought that the Crane Saint’s teachings were quite awesome, but he never expected it to be this powerful!

 

He could use heaven and earth as a furnace and stars as his ingredients to refine an entire galaxy!

This type of pill was known as the Galaxy Pill!

Of course, not everyone could eat this pill.

According to the Crane Saint’s predictions, even an ordinary saint would die from eating the Galaxy Pill.

Only the rare few who managed to reach the pinnacle of the saint realm dared to try such a pill.

According to the Crane Saint’s predictions, this pill could make one an Immortal!

What is immortal?

Chu Yu was just discussing this with Xu Xiaoxian moments ago.

But, their understanding of immortals were superficial.

Even the most ancient annals did not have records about immortals.

  

Chu Yu guessed that there may have been a huge break in civilization!

After all, based on scientific records before the seal on Earth was lifted, the universe had experienced the Big Bang. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

  

According to calculations, this Galaxy had existed for over 20 billion years, possibly even longer.

 

On the other hand, the ancient annals in the Mirror World, many of them written by saints, postulated that the galaxy was actually over 50 billion years old!

With such a long lifespan, no one could say for sure how many glorious eras it had went through.

He had just read the chapter from the Immortal Crane Pill Scripture. The Crane Saint had admitted that all that was in this chapter was mere postulation.

The Galaxy Pill recipe was also something he chanced upon when trying to analyze a weapon.

He had the ability to refine it, but never tried it out before.

The Galaxy Pill originated from a sword.

In the early years, he had travelled the universe and found an ancient sword in an ancient, devastated world.

It was extremely ancient!

Even a saint could not determine which era the blade was from!

The blade was three feet long and an inch wide. It was still in pristine condition!

According to the Crane Saint, that blade was incredibly sharp. As a saint with an incredibly strong and hard body, his skin was also broken by a light swipe of the blade.

The Crane Saint had not seen the four legendary killing blades before.

But he felt that this blade was no worse than those four.

Perhaps, it was even more powerful!

Even though the Crane Saint was a saint, he was a medicinal saint. Even though this superior weapon was attractive, it was not as attractive as a superior pill furnace.

As such, even though he was very happy to gain such a weapon, he didn’t think too much of it.

He only took it out to analyze its era once on vacation.

That was when he found some anomalies.

He realize that this was not just an ordinary sword, but a technique manual!

Much of Chu Yu’s awe was due to this discovery.

 

He did not expect the Crane Saint to record it in this much detail in the Immortal Crane Pill Scripture.

And this sword still remained on Earth!

After realizing that the Sword was extraordinary, the Crane Saint took tens of thousands of years before realizing that it was actually a technique manual.

But he couldn’t understand it.

Most of his concerns were about how to use it to advance his pill refining techniques!

Only now did Chu Yu realize that the Immortal Crane Pill Scripture and the Immortal Crane Pill Furnace were not lost items.

They were left there by the Crane Saint on purpose! They were for the future generations to find!

Contrary to what the legends say, the Crane Saint had actually participated in the battle aeons ago.

Not only did he participate, his level of participation... was quite high!

He was one of the backbones of that war!

When one attained the level of saint, they were able to see things from a completely different perspective.

The ancient chinese had a saying, "Heaven and Earth were not compassionate, they viewed everything beneath them as dogs."

Most saints treated the general populace that way too. Furthermore, they thought about problems at a higher order and a larger perspective.

Unless it involved other universes attacking them, they would not action easily.

Even though the Solar System was incredibly powerful and had many saints, they were overpowered by a pack of wolves, countless superior powers from other universes slashing their way into the Solar System.

They wanted to annihilate everyone in this galaxy!

Then, they would bring their descendants over here and benefit from the luck and opportunities here.

No matter how strong the saints in the Solar System were, they could not fight the swarms of attackers.

Blood flowed like rivers as they gave up their lives in the defense of the Solar System.

 

The entire galaxy was ravaged and devastated!

Those who had come from the other universes were stunned by the prowess of the Solar System defence.

But there were just too many enemies!

When defeat was certain, the Crane Saint, together with the other powers, sealed up the entire Solar System and left.

They disappeared from the face of the universe.

Before they left, many saints left their legacies and teachings behind.

The Crane Saint left the Immortal Crane Pill Scripture, the Immortal Crane Pill Furnace and that sword.

However, that sword was stored somewhere else.

The reason was simple.

If the person with the Immortal Crane Pill Scripture and the Immortal Crane Pill Furnace could not read this far, then he/she could not do anything with the sword either.

Furthermore, he/she may become a target for assassins!

  

According to the Crane Saint’s postulations, anyone who could understand this much of the Immortal Crane Pill Furnace was at least a Divine Lord level cultivator.

Little did he expect that his teachings would fall to someone as extraordinary as Chu Yu.

He could understand a good half of the Immortal Crane Pill Scripture as a Supreme Realm cultivator.

But this was a difficult chapter to read.

Chu Yu’s awe was immeasurable.

There were records of the bloody battle back in the day, postulations on Immortals, as well as some hypotheses about the sword.

The saints did not hold back any information when writing their legacies.

 

As for the rest of the chapter, they were pill recipes. Anyone who could read this far would have no problem understanding the rest.

The Crane Saint had postulated that if one could solve the mystery of the sword and refine the Galaxy Pill, that may be the key to becoming an Immortal.

That way, the crisis of the Village of Cultivation may be averted.

The war of the ancient days had ravaged the Solar System, but many of the powerful saints in the other universes were either dead or seriously injured.

However, after 60 million years of recuperation, a sealed world was going up against... a world which has not stopped growing for the past 60 million years.

The difference in power could only be imagined!

The Crane Saint had said that the advantage the Village of Cultivation had was in their blood.
Limitless

Limitless - Chapter 227: Finding Trouble

The Purple Cloud School’s leadership had already been informed of this and thus, there was no conflict about who was going to go on this expedition.

The two people going were Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian.

As for the other superior schools, the ones who were going were the students who did well.

The place they were going to was known as Devastated World.

It was a corner of the ancient ravaged world that existed before the Mirror World.

There was a law governing the Devastated World. It suppressed all the life forms in it, limiting them to only the power of a True Lord.

Even a saint would not be spared and would only be able to bring to bear the power of a True Lord.

When Chu Yu first heard this, he had found it unbelievable.

He wasn’t shocked by the suppression, but he was astounded by the fact that the Devastated World could suppress a saint.

Ever since he stepped into the cultivation world, his understanding of it had increased everyday.

After coming to the Mirror World, his horizons had been expanded immeasurably.

All this while, he had thought that saints were the strongest beings in this universe.

But the Devastated World could suppress saints.

This was completely unexpected!

Didn’t that mean that there were powers exceeding those of a saint in this universe?

A saint could smash an entire world and annihilate a galaxy easily!

How could people of such ability be suppressed by the rule of a single world?

Chu Yu had read widely, but had never seen a similar record.

He asked Xu Xiaoxian about it.

Xu Xiaoxian said, in the ancient annals of the Heavenly Demon Cult, there were records on the world that existed before the Mirror World, and there were murmurs about ‘Immortal’.

But, they did not explain further, only stating that this was a being without equal.

 

It was unimaginable and unfathomable.

"Immortal? Being without equal..."

Chu Yu felt a wave of emotions. On Earth, he had heard countless stories about various gods.

But he had always thought that the gods referred the the powers who were aliens.

They had technology, ability, and lifespan far exceeding that of humans.

He was one of very many on Earth who held this view.

As the world was unsealed, people gradually began to understand the cultivation world.

People began to think of the gods and deities in the legends not as aliens, but as cultivators.

Cultivators had a long life span.

It was only normal that they were seen as infallible deities to the people on Earth.

Since he entered the cultivation world, Chu Yu was not particularly sensitive towards the phrase ‘gods’.

They were just powerful cultivators.

The immortality of the saints was what every cultivator was after.

Else, there wouldn’t be so many people maniacally trying to attack the Solar System.

After hearing what Xu Xiaoxian had said, Chu Yu’s mindset shifted slightly.

Are there really powers higher than that of saints in this world?

Ignoring time and space... with the ability to suppress saints?

If this is the case, why did this place become devastated?

Who had smashed it?

How did this place look like initially?

And... where were those immortals now?

Saints were all unable to die, so what about these Immortals?

Did they leave this universe?

Did they enter a space of higher complexity?

Chu Yu had many questions.

Xu Xiaoxian told him that if they managed to get lucky in the Devastated World, there was a chance... that they could find some related traces,

"Then, in the millions of years prior to this, has there been any news from here?" Chu Yu addled.

Xu Xiaoxian shook her head, "There have been people who benefitted greatly from exploring this place, but I haven’t heard any news about Immortals and the world that was here before."

The universe was humongous, and humans were insignificant in comparison.

In comparison to the age of the universe, even the most powerful cultivators and the most superior saints were mere infants.

 

The whole thing about humans deciding the future was just saying it for the sake of it.

The saints were known as the rulers of the universe, yet, they too had places Tunney could not enter.

Not to mention the extremities of the faraway universes, even the Devastated World left behind in the Mirror World had the ability to suppress saints.

Chu Yu laughed bitterly and shook his head, feeling like he was thinking too much, and too far.

He was not even in the True Lord Realm, a far cry from attaining saint...

He helped Fang Lie find a permanent residence, gave him a few pills, and had him wait there.

Even though Fang Lie was a slave, in Chu Yu’s opinion, Fang Lie’s future would not be too bad either.

Fang Lie was the first person that he met whose Nascent Soul had an attribute.

Chu Yu’s techniques were not many, so he didn’t try to guide Fang Lie.

He planned to find some related magical equipment and techniques to pass on to Fang Lie.

Thousands of students came over from the Song Country.

Ever since they became a tier three school, they could stay in the Sky Dazed School for a month for free. Furthermore, they could use all the facilities within their designated zone!

This interaction and practice was a great opportunity for people in the Purple Cloud School.

As such, they were not bothered even if the Sky Dazed School accused them of being freeloaders. In fact, they did not mind paying for themselves either!

As for the Sky Dazed School, this was rather insignificant and not worth any mocking.

Many of the tier two schools numbered in the thousands!

As the number one school in the Mirror World, they had the fortune and ability to host such a crowd.

Yuwen Xiaoxiao and the others were virtually celebrities.

It was no exaggeration, these once rowdy girls were unbeaten in the championship, smashing all the opponents in their way.

Everyday, tier three schools would come visit them at their residence.

They would come asking for advice, pills, contact information...

On social media, billions of people were watching their every move.

However, these girls kept a low profile.

At this age, they were ripe to be rebellious and wild.

But they all knew how they had gotten this far.

"Let’s not give Old Song any trouble or draw hate in his direction."

Yuwen Xiaoxiao had suggested this and gained everyone’s approval.

The night before the expedition, Yuwen Xiaoxiao came over to find Chu Yu.

She was slightly worried that Chu Yu may be in danger after entering the Devastated World, so she came over specially to pass him a magical equipment.

This was a black windbreaker embroidered with gold dragons.

"Old Song, this windbreaker is a True Lord level battle armor. It’s best used defensively. It can block the attack of a True Lord."

Yuwen Xiaoxiao looked at Chu Yu seriously, "It has been tested before and can defend against an all out attack by a True Lord for over an hour!"

"So powerful?" Chu Yu used his vertical eye to observe this windbreaker. He was shocked to find out that the embroidery was actually a magical formation!

At the same time, the windbreaker had over a dozen unique magical formations!

These magical formations buffed each other, and could stand alone as well.

Chu Yu did not know much about magical formations, so he did not understand it fully.

 

But he could feel that this was a real treasure.

"It’s cool den period is about three days." Yuwen Xiaoxiao continued, "Everytime it runs out, the magical formation needs time to recuperate."

"Xiaoxiao, thank you." Chu Yu was extremely comforted.

"Old Song, you are our leader, nothing can happen to you." Yuwen Xiaoxiao’s exquisite face revealed traces of worry.

"I heard much about the Devastated World from others recently. I heard that it is very dangerous, furthermore, you must beware of those that are going in with you. When met with opportunities, few can be as.... people like you are rare, no, virtually none!"

Chu Yu smiled, "What about me?"

Yuwen Xiaoxiao glanced at him, blinked, and whispered, "If we still can’t guess by now that we are learning a saint’s technique, then aren’t we all a little stupid?"

"That’s what you say, I didn’t say it." Chu Yu smiled.

Yuwen Xiaoxiao’s eyes turned red, "Actually, my family has some saint techniques too. They are equally terrifying and powerful, but I was not qualified to learn them."

Chu Yu finally understood.

Yuwen Xiaoxiao’s talent was undeniable.

Not counting Song Binbin and Yan Xiaoyu, all the initial 12 girls were incredibly talented!

Anyone of them would rank amongst the top in the world!

But in the Mirror World, there were many rules that mimicked those of ancient China.

There was still a culture of not teaching the best techniques to the girls.

The only exception was when the girl was an incredible talent who would rise regardless of whether she learnt the superior techniques!

One example of such a lady was a youthful talent from the second ranked school, the Purple Light School, named Qin Mingyue.

The Qin Clan was one of the largest clans in the Mirror World, and was home to the saints behind the attack on the Solar System many years ago.

For a clan like this, they had living saints at their disposal, much less saint’s techniques.

However, she did not have the right to train with them because she was borne by a concubine and she was a lady.

In her anger, she left her home and entered the Purple Light School.

In the Purple Light School, she managed to train with saint’s techniques and became the best amongst her peers in the shortest possible time!

Yuwen Xiaoxiao sniffled, then smiled widely at Chu Yu, "As such, not only are you our Sensei, you are our benefactor! Our master! You’ve treated us so well, how can we not follow you forever?"

"What if one day, I want you to betray the Mirror World and betray your families, what would you do?" Chu Yu smiled and asked.

"There’s such an opportunity?" Yuwen Xiaoxiao’s eyes brightened, "Are you for real? Do you have a powerful background we don’t know about? Can we start causing trouble again?"

  "..."

Chu Yu was utterly speechless and sent the excited Yuwen Xiaoxiao in her way.

What a bunch of rowdy kids, unable to take things seriously.

All they thought about was causing trouble.

What kind of f*cking trouble did they want to cause?

.

Chu Yu complained to Xu Xiaoxian.

After hearing the story, Xu Xiaoxian burst out in laughter, "I like this disciple of yours. When we get back, I will advise her, then bring her along to cause trouble!"

Seeing Xu Xiaoxian’s excitement made Chu Yu feel like he could never let her come in contact with his students.

Else, they will all become uncontrollable.

Over a thousand people entered an incredibly humongous... flying saucer in batches!

That’s right, this was a flying saucer!

It was tens of thousands of meters wide!

It was made of a particular metal that gave off a solemn feeling.

It looked like the flying saucers that Chu Yu had seen in Sci-fi movies.

He couldn’t help but laugh bitterly inside.

The people on Earth thought that they were a technological world? An Immortal Hero World?

They were actually just an ignorant world living in their own fantasy.

Now that he was immersed in this world, he realized that... this was a similar world!
Limitless

Limitless - Chapter 226: A Country in Celebration

The next day, on stage.

Xu Xiaoxian took on the appearance of one of the youths from the Purple Cloud. Faced with the icy, murderous Leng Ao, she cupped her fist and bowed, "I’ve seen senior before!"

  

Leng Ao went through the motions of cupping his fist. He did not even bother hearing who his opponent was.

It didn’t matter who it was, his heart was filled with murderous intent.

He just wanted to kill his opponent in the shortest possible time, regardless of who it was!

Ever since Lin Shi had become a disciple of the Butterfly Dance Immortal, the comments had not stopped coming.

The Divine Warfare School lost their disciple and was still coming under pressure from this incident.

The entire Mirror World was chiding them.

Up till now, this incident had not calmed down.

Every time Leng Ao stepped out the door, he felt like people were looking at him mockingly.

This infuriated him and he felt like he was going crazy.

By now, he was already losing himself.

He could barely control his own actions!

 

Xu Xiaoxian looked at Leng Ao and sensed the terrifying wave of force from his body, but she remained calm.

Many of the spectators worried for her. Even though the Purple Cloud was quite the dark horse, it was unlikely that they could win against a talent like Leng Ao.

"Begin!’

The judges for the main competition were the teachers from the Sky Dazed School.

For some of the major rounds, the sensei from the Sky Dazed School hosted them personally.

  

For example, this round today was judged by a Sky Dazed School sensei.

This man was in his forties, had dark skin and a stern expression.

  

In the moment he declared the start of the round, Leng Ao lunged!

 

The scythe in his hand swung towards Xu Xiaoxian’s head!

 

This attack could split a mountain!

 

The space on stage seemed to be sliced in half by the attack.

A terrifying wave of energy dissipated to the sides as a blade aura filled with killing intent flew right at Xu Xiaoxian.

What a maniac!

In the face of such an attack, even Xu Xiaoxian did not dare to take it lightly.

She used her body techniques to radiate a magnificent wave of energy. In the moment she dodged Leng Ao’s attack, she rushed at Leng Ao.

"You want close combat?"

Leng Ao’s eyes flashed with a glint of mockery/

He swung his scythe.

Sweep!

His attack looked simple, but it had many variations.

 

He was extremely adept with the scythe and his murderous intent filled the entire space.

Regardless male or female, he only wanted to do one thing.

Kill!

Everyone watching was silent.

The entire spectator stand was filled. The combination of a dark horse and a tier three school expert duking it out drew much attention.

Many people thought that Xu Xiaoxian would leap into the air to dodge Leng Ao’s second strike.

However, Xu Xiaoxian’s advancing body suddenly bent backwards!

She was clearly charging forward, but at this point, her body arced backwards.

It looked so confusing and conflicting.

Leng Ao didn’t expect her to dodge this way.

Under normal circumstances, Xu Xiaoxian should jump upwards, then all he had to do was swipe upwards...

Then... Bam!

She would be cut in half!

The scent of fresh blood spewing out of her body... would give him immeasurable satisfaction.

 

However, this person could stop mid charge, bend over backwards... then fall to the ground.

 

Did he think he’ll be fine?

Naive!

 

Leng Ao also stopped his movement, then quickly chopped downwards at Xu Xiaoxian!

Everyone watching gasped in amazement.

How intense!

Each attack was out to kill!

There was no room for error!

The battle was white hot even before the spectators had gotten their rhythm!

In the moment Xu Xiaoxian fell to the ground, Leng Ao’s scythe came down on her.

However, her body shot out like an arrow, her head trailing behind her feet as she dashed towards Leng Ao’s feet.

Bong!

Leng Ao’s scythe impacted the magical formation protected stage, sending sparks flying.

Xu Xiaoxian was already in front of him!

Leng Ao retreated hastily. All of a sudden, his scythe broke into two, forming a short scythe and a short pole.

The short scythe was aimed at Xu Xiaoxian’s feet whilst the short pole went for Xu Xiaoxian’s head!

How powerful!

Even without considering his cultivation level, Leng Ao’s battle prowess placed him amongst the best in the Mirror World.

 

Xu Xiaoxian’s body became like a snake.

Almost as if she was boneless!

 

She leapt into the air in an unbelievable fashion!

 

The speed at which she leapt up was too quick, and Leng Ao was too used to his technique that he could not react in time.

Xu Xiaoxian raised both fists, one directed at Leng Ao’s heart, the other at Leng Ao’s liver.

Bang!

The strike on his heart was almost like hitting an incredibly hard metal plate and the accompanying clang was proof of that.

 

At the same time, Leng Ao’s heart area burst out in bright light.

There... was a defensive magical equipment there!

Xu Xiaoxian moaned. Her hand was injured, and her bones likely broken.

However, Leng Ao also screamed in pain, then flew off the stage.

Xu Xiaoxian’s second hit on his liver area had seriously injured him.

Leng Ao spat out a mouthful of blood below the stage, almost losing consciousness.

Everyone watching was stunned by what they saw.

So fast?

The entire battle was over in the blink of an eye!

Leng Ao’s chop, sweep and swipe.

Then, the split of his scythe into two.

Two moves.

Xu Xiaoxian’s dodge, fall, charge, rise, and two fists.

One move!

Then, Leng Ao was sent flying, spitting out mouthfuls of blood.

The Purple Cloud School... was so vicious!

Was it necessary?

The two of them did not even use any sacred arts.

This was pure battle power!

Leng Ao’s battle techniques were tried and tested, how else could he have killed and injured so many people?

In previous battles, he rarely used the sacred arts either.

In the Divine Warfare School, his battle power was also one of the best.

But no one expected that the Purple Cloud’s unknown student could defeat him with a single blow.

The spectators fell silent, then, erupted!

The people from the Divine Warfare School rushed forward to save Leng Ao, the rest of them were green with horror.

 

No one would have thought that Leng Ao would lose to such an unknown opponent!

Chu Yu was in awe as he watched the judge announce the Purple Cloud’s victory whilst Xu Xiaoxian walked off the stage.

Through these challenges, he could see that Xu Xiaoxian was extremely adept at battle.

From start to finish, she did not use the same techniques and style in each battle.

 

Before becoming this person, she would study what this person is good at, including their character!

She was as meticulous as she could be!

It was so meticulous one could not differentiate between the two of them!

Other than the fact that these students were much more powerful than they actually were, everything else was completely the same!

This was really a powerful technique.

If she had took on the appearance of a lady, it might have been easier.

But most of the people from the battle section were males!

Each of them had a different personality, yet, Xu Xiaoxian could imitate them extremely well.

  

Even the friends of the person she was disguising herself as could not tell the difference!

This was her true skill.

Other than this, this girl’s technique and skill with magical formations was definitely at least that of a guru!

That day, at the Sky Auction Institution, if not for her skills with magical formations, they were definitely no match for the Divine Lord.

Xu Xiaoxian returned to the Purple Cloud Camp and smiled, "I followed your instructions."

Chu Yu nodded, "Good job!"

 

Only the two of them knew what was going on.

Xu Xiaoxian had helped Chu Yu get back at Leng Ao.

She used the Voice Transmission Technique to tell Chu Yu that the blow she dealt to Leng Ao will cause him to be bedridden for at least a week.

Even with superior healing medicine, he will not heal so quickly.

Anywho, Leng Ao’s tour in this championship had come to an end.

In the following challenges, the Purple Cloud began to slow down and control the pace of their victories.

By the last day, the Purple Cloud School, who had no more rounds left, was ranked 47th!

This was an awe inspiring ranking!

They had so little people that virtually everyone competed in the maximum five rounds.

To be able to get such a result surpassed everybody’s expectations.

  

The Mirror World was raving about this school. This dark horse was unbeatable!

 

It was no exaggeration to say that the Purple Cloud School’s story would be told for generations to come.

This was the most glorious day in their history!

All of the teachers and students felt like they were living a dream.

Only after the competition ended and a high ranking Vice Principal from the Sky Dazed School announced the results did they slowly recover from their daze.

However, in the Song Country, the entire country... was celebrating!

The Purple Cloud School, the Purple Cloud Constabulary, various Song cities...

The ramifications of these were great.

Being able to become a tier three school meant that the Purple Cloud School would be entitled to large amounts of resources, techniques... and privileges from the Alliance of Schools over the next decade!

More straightforwardly, not only would they be rewarded for their ranking, as a tier three school, they were given one more month to stay in a special zone within the Sky Dazed School.

They could go to the library in this section to study!

This was the real treasure!

Even though many of the students did not actually take part in the battle this time, they gained much from the rewards. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

They were all rather talented youths, and having a month to roam the libraries of the Sky Dazed School would benefit them greatly in their growth.

Perhaps, in 10 years, they may represent themselves at the championships!

For Xu Xiaoxian, she had gotten what she came here for.

At the closing ceremony, the Vice Principal of the Sky Dazed School announced: The top 50 schools would have two slots to explore an ancient monument!
