Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Attribute Points Allocation-Chapter 668: 347: Escaping, Upgrading

Chapter 668 -347: Escaping, Upgrading

Having used Instant Horizon multiple times in succession and seeing that no one had caught up, Lu Yun finally let out a sigh of relief.

In the Black-yellow Great World of this Heaven and Earth, using the Divine Ability Instant Horizon took a tremendous toll on consciousness and the Cave Heavens, and even in his peak state, he could only use it seven or eight times.

However, Instant Horizon as a Divine Ability was still as reliable as ever.

“In the future, when I have enough Divine Power Value, I’ll upgrade it to the Seventh Grade level,” he said to himself as he quickly flew towards the border of the Mountain Han Dao Mansion.

Now that he carried more than a dozen Heaven Snake Fruits on him, he felt like a child holding gold in a bustling market, needing to make a swift getaway.

Moreover, he had a premonition that in the coming days, the Mountain Han Dao Mansion would likely not be peaceful.

His premonition proved to be very accurate.

After his departure, a slaughter began.

Wen Shouzeng, who was at the eight-fold peak of the Heavenly Human Realm, along with Zhong Ziyi, were both struck dead by a single palm strike from the woman in palace attire.

And this was just the beginning.

…

Mountain Han Dao Mansion, Eight Directions Sect.

In a large hall, numerous Jade Slips were laid out. These were the life tokens of the Elite Disciples of the Eight Directions Sect.

The Elite Disciples were the core of Eight Directions Sect, of utmost importance, with each one having a dedicated life token.

Now, however, twelve life tokens shattered one after another.

The middle-aged man guarding the tokens nearly thought he was seeing things, and couldn’t help but rub his eyes vigorously before continuing to watch the life tokens.

Beyond the initial twelve, five more tokens shattered, all of which belonged to Elite Disciples at the eight-fold level of the Heavenly Human Realm.

At this moment, his complexion changed dramatically.

“No good, the life tokens are shattered, seventeen Elite Disciples have fallen!”

The fall of so many Elite Disciples at once was definitely a major event for the Eight Directions Sect.

After recording the names from the shattered tokens, the middle-aged man left the hall in a hurry to report the incident.

Soon, an elderly man with white streaks in his hair walked in from outside.

He looked at the shattered tokens right away, his expression dark as water.

“Zhong Ziyi’s life token is shattered; he has fallen as well,” the elder said, looking very grim.

There were not many Elite Disciples in the Eight Directions Sect who were at the nine-fold level of the Heavenly Human Realm.

Zhong Ziyi, at the eight-fold peak of the Heavenly Human Realm, had high hopes of entering the nine-fold level, and it wouldn’t be difficult for him to enter the True Spirit Realm in the future.

But now, he had unexpectedly fallen.

Apart from Zhong Ziyi, there were four more Elite Disciples at the eight-fold level and twelve at the seven-fold level of the Heavenly Human Realm who had perished.

For a moment, aside from rage, the elder felt a profound sense of confusion.

“Zhong Ziyi was not weak. He possessed a replica of the Eight Directions Seal, capable of contending with the ninth level of the Heavenly Human Realm. Even if he encountered a more powerful entity, he should not have fallen so easily, and there were so many Elite Disciples with him. Even when facing an average foe of the Unity Realm, they could have fought and prevailed, so how could they fall in such quick succession?”

The middle-aged man standing behind him remained silent, head bowed.

The fall of so many Elite Disciples was a grave matter.

It was likely not so simple.

As one of the top powers of the Mountain Han Dao Mansion, the Eight Directions Sect rarely saw the fall of Elite Disciples, even those who venture to other regions for training rarely perished.

Zhong Ziyi and the others had no record of having gone out for training, which clearly meant they had fallen within the Mountain Han Dao Mansion.

Within the Mountain Han Dao Mansion, only the Yuanying Hall had the strength to rival the Eight Directions Sect.

But even with the rift between them, in the absence of definitive interests, they would certainly not massacre so many Elite Disciples of the Eight Directions Sect in one go; it would inevitably lead to war between the two, to the benefit of a third party.

Therefore, the incident was unusual.

With a cold expression, the elder said, “Apart from the Yuanying Hall, whoever dares to kill the Elite Disciples of our sect could only be forces from outside the Mountain Han Dao Mansion. I want to see just who dares to kill more than ten of the Elite Disciples of my Eight Directions Sect within the Mountain Han Dao Mansion.”

If it were ordinary disciples that had been killed, it wouldn’t have been a big deal, and at most, he would have paid it some attention.

But the Elite Disciples were different.

Each Elite Disciple was a vital force of the Eight Directions Sect, crucial for maintaining and expanding the sect’s future foundation.

If too many Elite Disciples were lost, it would inevitably result in the weakening of the Eight Directions Sect, making it impossible to confront the Yuanying Hall in the future.

As such, every Elite Disciple of the Eight Directions Sect had a life token, and should any be found shattered, they would thoroughly investigate the matter.

If the investigation revealed that a force of the same level or below was behind the fall of the Elite Disciples, the Eight Directions Sect would retaliate forcefully.

“Mountain Han Ranges…”

After determining the recent whereabouts of Zhong Ziyi and the other fallen Elite Disciples, the elder quickly left to take action.

A similar scene unfolded within the Yuanying Hall.

…

Across the vast expanse of white snow, Yuan Yao and Chang Xiaorui advanced rapidly.

“Yuan Yao, do you think Junior Brother Lu can successfully escape?” Chang Xiaorui felt a bit uneasy. She could sense that the several individuals who appeared later were incredibly strong, especially the woman in palace attire, whose presence seemed no less than those of the Elite Disciples of Qinghuo Palace.

The Elite Disciples of the Qinghuo Palace were at least at the Unity Realm, far beyond the reach of the Heavenly Human Realm.

Such a formidable foe, if she were after Lu Yun, his chances of escape would be bleak.

“Don’t worry, Junior Brother Lu is not only powerful but also has many trump cards. If he wants to leave, no one can stop him,” said Yuan Yao with a reassuring smile.

Yet beneath that smile lay deep concern.

Her previous words were as much to reassure Chang Xiaorui as they were to comfort herself.
