10,000 Years In A Cultivation Sect: I Obtained A Powerful Technique From The Start Chapter 67 – The Ninth Time, Checked

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhou Tian was wearing the low-grade Black Gold Arcane Armor and holding the Heavenly Polearm, a low-grade Dao Vessel. He then activated the Great Polearm Tyrant technique. It was the powerful special ability that the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty used to conquer the land.

His aura surged, and it made him look even stronger. He would have made quick work of his opponent, but unfortunately, his opponent today was Zi Linglong.

When comparing special abilities alone, even Jiang Ming was no match for her. Even if she just used a few of her special abilities, she was still very impressive.

Bam!

Zhou Tian fell from the sky and crashed on the peak of a mountain.

“When the dragon gets furious, the sky will be stained with blood!” He leaped into the air, his eyes spewing fire. His long hair and armor fluttered along with the wind as he shouted, “Great Polearm Heaven Strike, bring down the foe!”

His power surged following the incantation. He charged straight at Zi Linglong with all his might, but he was sent flying away again.

Next, Zhou Tian kept getting beaten to the ground again and again. In the end, his hair was disheveled, and there was blood lining the corner of his lips. Even the divine light around him had dimmed down.

“This is the ninth time!” Zi Linglong said as she looked coldly at him, “If you come at me again, you'll become a bug. If you become a bug, I'll have to kill you. If not, you'll affect my emotions!”

“Arghhh!”

Something inside Zhou Tian's head snapped, and he shouted at the top of his lungs in rage.

Ever since he was born, he had been highly admired. He cultivated quickly and was known as a prodigy. Besides, he had never lost to anyone, except for a few people.

Even if he lost a battle, he had never been humiliated like this before.

In his eyes, the Jiuyang Sect was just a second-rate sect. He looked down on them and barged in forcefully in an attempt to recruit Zi Linglong, but now…

He was getting his *ss kicked!

His hand that was holding the polearm was shaking. His bones were broken, and he was confident that his organs must have sustained a great amount of damage.

Be that as it may, he was not going to give up just yet. Just when he was about to throw himself at Zi Linglong again, a hand appeared on his hand and stopped him.

“Your Highness, please stop!”

“Uncle Chang, I, I, I…” Zhou Tian was so exasperated that he was on the verge of crying.

“You've lost, Your Highness. This is not something humiliating. Bai Yu was a powerful being who reigned over Zhong Province, but he still met his demise in Eastern Region. Back then, the Eldest Prince was known as the most talented martial artist, yet he was defeated again and again when he attempted to overpower his peers. There are countless talented people in this world, and nobody dares to say they are the strongest.

“Your Highness, it's only through defeat that you can truly accomplish self-realization. What you should do right now is go back, put more effort into your training, and come back to challenge them again one day,” the elder man said, his voice filled with wisdom.

“You know it. You know why I came here!” Zhou Tian said, “I… I just can't accept it. If I lose today, can I still defeat her in the future? She's not even 20 years old!”

The corner of the elder man's lips quivered, but he still forced a smile on his face, “She's able to step into the Dao Seed Realm despite her young age, defeated you, and killed a martial artist in the Nascent Soul Realm. Can't you see it yet, Your Highness? She's an unparalleled prodigy who's favored by heaven, and she's bound to achieve something great in the future!

“Your Highness, you should consider yourself fortunate to have run into such a person today. After all, regardless of sparring or sharing experience, I'm sure she will be of great help to you in the future!

“You're the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty. You're broad-minded and ambitious. If can could bring all the outstanding people under your command, I'm certain you'll be able to forge your own great achievements one day!”

This time, he talked to him through mind transmission.

“You're right.” Zhou Tian pouted. His expression changed, and he had returned to his normal self.

Divine light began to radiate from him, and he finally calmed down.

Opposite of them, at the moment the elder man appeared, the Sect Master had arrived beside Zi Linglong too. Even Dongfang Lie, the First Seat of Lieyang Peak, and Hao Chen, the First Seat of Shaofeng Peak, flew and stood behind Zi Linglong.

“I lost!” Zhou Tian announced after taking a deep breath. He offered Zi Linglong a big grin and continued. “Amongst the geniuses I've come across, you definitely are the best! I lost today, but I'll come back again!”

He paused for a moment and threw a medicinal herb to Zi Linglong. “This is the gift of compensation. I'll be taking my leave now. Farewell!”

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left.

The rest of the people who followed him looked at each other with strange expressions on their faces as they left the scene one after another.

“Thanks for your time!” The elder man known as “Uncle Chang” made a bow at the Sect Master before leaving.

The Sect Master heaved out a long sigh of relief.

No one knew how stressed he was just now, but luckily, everything had come to an end now.

“Great work, Linglong,” the Sect Master said with a smile.

“I'm sorry for making you worry about me, Sect Master,” Zi Linglong replied. She grabbed the medicinal herb and came to Jiang Ming's side. She hugged his arm and said softly, “Senior brother, I didn't do anything wrong, right?”

“You've done a great job!” Jiang Ming laughed. “Zhou Tian may seem fine on the surface, but I'm sure he must hate you to the core since you've made him look like a clown in front of his followers. We can't do anything to him since there are so many people watching. If no one was watching, we would've gotten rid of him already!”

“You're right. Let's find a chance and get rid of him in the future!” Zi Linglong nodded.

The mouths of the crowd twitched vigorously after they heard the conversation between Zi Linglong and Jiang Ming, especially the Sect Master. He was a little bit worried about the future of the Jiuyang Sect, and he could foresee that she would get herself into a lot of trouble in the future if she did not change her attitude.

The Great Zhou Dynasty must have an army of martial artists in the Paradis, Extreme Path, or Imminent Immortal Realm, and they said they could kill Zhou Tian if nobody was watching? What kind of joke was that!?

After the death of the Holy Son of the Infinite Alchemy Pavilion, even the Qingyun Sect had a hard time dealing with the two powerful beings they sent after them, and the Qingyun Sect was a sacred land.

How about the Jiuyang Sect?

Even if they just spit at them, they could easily drown them.

“Gu Hai, you have to guide her properly!” The Sect Master sent a mind transmission to Gu Hai. “She's still young, and if she's guided properly, she will bring the Jiuyang Sect to a whole new level. However, if… If she killed Zhou Tian today, all of us would need to run for our lives!”

“Don't worry, I… I…” Gu Hai stammered, “I'll try my best!”

“Try your best? No, you have to do it. This is related to the future of the Jiuyang Sect. If you cannot guide her properly, you will be condemned as a sinner through the ages. However, if you can guide her properly, you will be highly regarded for the rest of your life!” The Sect Master said, “Just let me know if you need anything.”

“Honestly, she just listens to Jiang Ming alone.”

“But he's your disciple too!”

“But that brat… You don't know, Sect Master. He looks gentle and kind on the surface, but he's very cunning and sly. I don't have the confidence to make him listen to me!”

“What else can you do if you can't even control your own disciple?”

“Alright, alright. Leave it to me!”

Both of them then ended their conversation.

The rest of the people started leaving one by one as well.

While they were leaving, their eyes were filled with admiration and wonder as they looked at Zi Linglong.

She did not hesitate even for the slightest moment when she was taking someone else's life, but she acted as docile and obedient like a kitten in front of her Senior Brother, who was only in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

That said, they were still very surprised that Zi Linglong had ascended into the Dao Seed Realm.

Jiang Ming and his Junior Sister returned to the courtyard hand-in-hand. Suddenly, the Human Paths Record opened up before him.
