Starting With 100 Million Lives

Chapter 1214 - 1214: Survival Through Desperation

Venerable Ren Hui suddenly launched an attack, which left Brother Cheng bewildered.

Bro, what are you trying to pull?

Feeling uncomfortable without getting thrashed?

Even the seven people opposite were subtly shaking their heads.

Venerable Ren Hui really has a narrow mind.

Brother Cheng was not about to back down and was just planning to draw his sword again when Ling suddenly stepped forward.

"Ren Hui, you can go back."

Her tone was very flat.

There was no harshness in her words, nor any pressure.

However, Venerable Ren Hui, who had been full of aggressive battle intent, suddenly had a dramatic change in his expression.

"Go... where?"

"You're tired and not suitable to continue training here."

After Ling said this, Venerable Ren Hui appeared to melt, nearly collapsing.

"I, I..."

He stood there at a loss, his sword already hanging down.

This scene left the surrounding people shocked in their hearts.

Who is this woman?

To be able to give orders to Venerable Ren Hui?

Even a Daoist Venerable wouldn't have this authority, right?

Could she be a Divine Monarch?

Or perhaps a descendant of a Celestial Emperor?

Venerable Ren Hui's expression was extremely splendid.

He realized that after Jiang Cheng showcased the Life and Death Sword Heart, he had become insignificant in Ling's presence.

He didn't want to leave just like that.

Yet facing Ling's calm gaze, he finally trembled and slowly took out the Emperor Sword Talisman.

She said he was tired, so even if he wasn't tired, he had to be.

In front of everyone's eyes, he closed his eyes and fiercely threw the Emperor Sword Talisman away.

At the moment the Emperor Sword Talisman left his hand, he disappeared from where he stood.

His journey on the Emperor Sword Star thus ended.

This scene left Brother Cheng clicking his tongue in wonder.

Previously, he didn't care much about Ling's specific identity.

Now he was genuinely curious.

This woman has some authority; what is her background?

Not being able to slay Venerable Ren Hui and acquire the spoils, he reluctantly sheathed his sword.

He casually asked, "Which Celestial Emperor's illegitimate daughter are you?"

This question made the seven people on the opposite boat twitch their eyes.

Leader, aren't you asking too bluntly?

Though they didn't know her true identity, it must be overwhelmingly significant.

Even having the Life and Death Sword Heart wouldn't help you.

Looking at Venerable Ren Hui's fate, if you provoke her, the consequences will surely be severe.

"Hehe..."

Ling didn't become angry but let out a laugh like a clear spring.

At this moment, the atmosphere around them seemed to become lively and joyful.

She didn't answer but instead returned the question to Jiang Cheng.

"You guess?"

Guess my foot!

Brother Cheng pursed his lips; you're keeping secrets now?

Huh, you want to steal my spotlight?

He was just about to speak again when the seven people on the opposite boat collectively bowed towards Ling.

"We have unwittingly intruded here, and have offended you, please forgive us!"

"May we leave?"

Ling waved her hand, and the seven people gratefully departed, quickly disappearing from Brother Cheng and Ling's sight.

This made Brother Cheng feel a bit lonely.

"Oh, I wanted to chat with them more."

"Chat about what?" Ling asked, half-smiling, directly gazing into his eyes as if seeing through his thoughts.

Brother Cheng wanted to say, of course, to hear them continue praising me.

He had just stunned the entire scene but hadn't been complimented enough yet.

But such an indulgent reason definitely couldn't be spoken out loud.

So he casually said, "Someone as diligent in practice as me, of course, would talk about swordsmanship, Sword Heart, and Sword Dao and such."

"Since everyone here is Sword Cultivators, it's a rare opportunity."

"If you love discussing swordsmanship so much, how come you didn't talk to Ren Hui in the previous years?"

In fact, it wasn't just that Brother Cheng hadn't spoken to Venerable Ren Hui.

Over those years, the words he exchanged with Venerable Ren Hui totaled less than ten sentences.

His rare leisure time was mostly spent interacting with a girl.

Hearing her mention Venerable Ren Hui, Jiang Cheng countered.

"I find you to be a very pragmatic woman, discarding him with a kick when he's of no use."

Though he wasn't on the same side as Venerable Ren Hui, Ling's apparent indifference didn't escape his notice.

In Sect Leader Jiang's view, it was the nature of use-and-dispose.

"I was saving him."

Ling smiled, her smile as always making one feel as if basking in the spring breeze.

"If I had driven him away a moment later, he would likely already be dead at your hands."

Jiang Cheng was startled.

He found he needed to reevaluate this woman.

To know that slaying Venerable Ren Hui is easy for me, impressive, well-seeing!

"You... have a pretty keen eye!"

He nodded towards Ling with admiration.

Time continued to pass as they occasionally chatted, sometimes one meditating and the other sleeping, sometimes dealing with Sword Heart Mo Yu's daily routine.

Jiang Cheng's Sword Dao insight progressed at an extremely rapid pace.

Gradually, he fused the first Sword Dao World.

It was the Water Sword Heart and Sacrificial Moon Sword Heart.

The two seemed unrelated, but when he used the reflective mental realm of the crescent moon in the water, its power directly exceeded the former Five Elements Mini World.

And this was only the Sword Dao formed by the two Sword Hearts.

If more Sword Hearts could be fused, the power would multiply further.

While his strength was rapidly advancing day by day, on the distant other side of the Celestial Dao Sword Sea, a solitary 'small boat' was drifting alone.

On that leaf was only one person.

That person only had mid-stage Emperor Realm Ninth Layer cultivation but wielded a Tier Seven Dao Sword that even a Daoist Venerable might not possess.

She wore a black palace gown, her expression was so indifferent it almost seemed aloof.

And her appearance was breathtakingly beautiful.

Her serene and dustless demeanor was perfectly flawless, making one marvel at the heavens' biased creation.

Who else could this person be but Qiu Yuxuan?

Yes, she also entered the Emperor Sword Star.

As the future star with the highest talent in the Sword Pavilion, she received powerful cultivation, and the Emperor Sword Talisman was naturally no issue.

Given Qiu Yuxuan's significance in talent, the Sword Pavilion originally arranged for two Daoist Venerables as her guards, ready to accompany her here to train.

Sister Qiu originally mastered the Nine Sword Hearts and comprehended two more at the Sword Pavilion.

However, the tiers of the latter two are not yet high.

With those two Daoist Venerables accompanying her, as long as she didn't encounter the rare Life and Death Sword Heart, there wouldn't be any danger.

But Qiu Yuxuan refused the luxurious arrangement.

The pride and arrogance deep in her bones made her choose to enter the Celestial Dao Sword Sea alone, independently confronting Sword Heart Mo Yu.

Through the years, her leaf already bore over a dozen holes.

Even after repair, it could sink at any moment.

In contrast, she has comprehended three more Sword Hearts!

Yes, Qiu Yuxuan willingly cut off her retreat, finding life in desperate situations.

She surprisingly used the ink rain here to grasp the four Sword Hearts she hadn't mastered.

Now, apart from Life and Death, she has mastered all other fourteen Sword Hearts!
