Nine Yang Sword Saint Chapter 215

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

After buying all the required materials for the fourth, fifth, and sixth stage of marrow and meridians cleansing, Yang Dingtian had spent a total of over one million gold coins.

As for the seventh stage of cleansing, Yang Dingtian would have to wait until he broke through to the Master class. Moreover, those materials couldn't be bought anymore. He would have to find specialized Cleansing Devil Pool to conduct the seventh and eighth stages of cleansing.

Such Cleansing Devil Pools were mostly natural, and it would be completely up to luck if one could find it or not.

After buying all the materials, Yang Dingtian entered the guest inn of the auction house. Soon enough, the members of the White Cloud City had surrounded the guest inn that Yang Dingtian resided in. All around Yang Dingtian's room were packed with members of the White Cloud City.

They were behaving brazenly, and it was obvious that Young Lord Ye was determined to obtain the 8th-grade Devil Flame Saber Art.

Furthermore, as they weren't making a move now, the auction house couldn't do anything to them either. After all, the White Cloud City was the No. 2 faction in the Northwest Continent's Heaven Dao Union. They naturally didn't wish to offend Young Lord Ye.

Yang Dingtian was planning to put on a disguise and leave secretly. By doing so, he would be able to leave without anyone noticing.

But Yang Dingtian realized that this option was completely inviable.

Since he could feel at least two Martial Ancestor class experts locking onto his qi intent, if this were the case, even if he were to wear a human skin mask and change into an entirely different person, it would still be useless. As long as his qi intent was locked, no matter what he turned into, he would still be recognized.

Yang Dingtain was actually going to trap in this place till death.

Furthermore, with two Martial Ancestor class experts monitoring him, there was nothing he could do. He could only execute some basic mystic qi breathing cycle as he couldn't even conduct any spiritual tribulation. If he did so, those people simply have to launch a spiritual attack, and Yang Dingtian's spirit might just shatter.

It was even less possible to conduct the cleansing of marrow and meridians.

The cleansing of the marrow and meridians was nearly the most dangerous thing and most stringent on the environment. Even with an expert's protection, there must not be any disturbance. Just a hint of disturbance might result in the death by explosion.

Right now, Yang Dingtian was surrounded by the experts of the White Cloud City. Furthermore, he didn't have any expert to protect him, and if he were to conduct the cleansing now, it would be the same as seeking death.

As for the 8th-grade Devil Flame Saber Art, he must not bring it out to learn.

When studying the mystic skill manual, a quiet environment without any mystic qi disturbance was required.

If Yang Dingtian were to study the 8th-grade Devil Flame Saber Art now, the two Martial Ancestor class experts simply have to create some spiritual and mystic qi disturbance. Yang Dingtian was guaranteed to go berserk afterward.

Thus, the cleansing of the marrow and meridians, and the cultivation of mystic skill must be conducted under the safest environment.

For this moment, Yang Dingtian was stuck in the auction house with nothing to do.

One day, two days, five days.

Yang Dingtian was completely anxious, like fire.

The White Cloud City's Young Lord had already sent a message saying that even if he were going to the Northwest Qin City to propose for marriage, he would still leave men to guard Yang Dingtian closely.

He had given Yang Dingtian two choices: First, was to hand over the 8th-grade Devil Flame Saber Art unconditionally. Second, death!

At this current moment, Yang Dingtian truly hated this White Cloud City's Young Lord into his bones.

Yang Dingtian had encountered ruthless and vicious people. Ximen Ju and Qin Huaiyu were all Yang Dingtian's most vicious and ferocious enemies.

But none of them were despicable and presumptuous like Young Lord Ye. He was behaving so brazenly, and after he failed the auction, he actually wanted to murder and snatch the manual.

Day after day, the two Martial Ancestor class experts were still locking onto Yang Dingtian's qi intent.

Yang Dingtian was getting even more impatient. Time was absolutely pressing for him.

There were only slightly more than seven months left before the martial contest to determine the city lord position.

Yang Dingtian was only a 5-star Great Mystic Martial Master right now.

Furthermore, the most important Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame was still uncertain yet.

The other half of the map was in the Northwest Qin City. He originally planned to conduct the fourth stage of the marrow and meridian cleansing before learning the third rank of the Pig Slaying Sword Art and the 8th-grade Devil Flame Saber Art. He would then think of a way to infiltrate the Northwest Qin City.

As compared to the other factions, the Northwest Qin City wasn't like a faction; they were more like a country.

During these years, the Northwest Qin City had been recruiting talents. As long as one had sufficient influence, they could obtain a high-ranking position in the Northwest Qin Clan.

Yang Dingtian originally wanted to use the identity of Shen Lang to infiltrate the Northwest Qin Clan. He would then use his martial strength to climb the ranks in Qin City rapidly. It would be best if he could become the trusted aide of Qin Huaiyu and others. He would then think of a way to obtain the other half of the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame.

This plan was crazy and very dangerous! But it was the only way.

Right now, he was actually trapped in this place because of the bastard Young Lord Ye. He was suspecting that even if he were willing to hand over the 8th-grade Devil Flame Saber Art, Young Lord Ye would still kill him. Because, during the auction, Yang Dingtian had humiliated him in front of everyone.

On the tenth day, Yang Dingtian decided to take a risk and rush to the top echelons of the auction house and use the Heaven Dao Union's highest level of code words. He was planning to order the Master class experts to escort him out safely.

It was the same situation when he was returning to the Cloud Heaven City from the Land of Chaos. Yang Dingtian looked for the secret hideout of the Heaven Dao Union and used the code word. The Heaven Dao Union didn't hesitate and immediately sent ten experts to escort him back to the Cloud Heaven City.

But it was truly different this time. This place wasn't the Land of Chaos and was the West Prefecture City, which was almost fully under the Northwest Qin Clan's control.

If Yang Dingtian were to recite the Heaven Dao Union's highest level of code words, he would surely be able to escape the grasp of Young Lord ye, but the Northwest Qin Clan would most certainly target him.

Once the Northwest Qin Clan paid attention to him, they might suspect that he was Yang Dingtian. Furthermore, Yang Dingtian's plan to use Shen Lang's identity to infiltrate the Northwest Qin City would have dawdled.

There was another possibility. When Yang Dingtian recited the Heaven Dao Union's highest level of code words, the Northwest Qin Clan would naturally think of Yang Dingtian, as Yang Dingtian's cord words were all imparted by Dongfang Niemie. They could easily associate this information.

Hence, using the highest level of code words to order the Heaven Dao Union's Master class experts to escort him was truly a very dangerous and even fatal method.

It might be even more severe than being trapped by Young Lord Ye. Thus, Yang Dingtian truly didn't wish to use this method.

Just as Yang Dingtian was hesitating whether he should use this most dangerous method to escape, Su Mei, the shrewd woman, finally visited.

“Shen Lang, do you wish to escape?” Su Mei immediately asked.

“Of course.” Yang Dingtian replied. Right now, he wasn't even pretending to be a wanderer anymore.

“Alright. Follow me. I will bring you to meet a person.” Su Mei said and turned her delicate body before walking outside.

“Meet who?” Yang Dingtian frowned and asked.

“A person who is totally not afraid of the White Cloud City.” Su Mei responded.

“Who exactly is that?” Yang Dingtian asked.

“This auction house's owner and also my master.” Su Mei said, “It is up to you if you want to follow me or not. Of course, it will still be up to you if you can escape or not.”

Su Mei walked out leisurely after speaking.

Yang Dingtian followed her out of the room while the two Martial Ancestor class experts' spiritual qi intents were following closely too. There was no way to get rid of them.

After following Su Mei out of the guest inn, it was already dark outside as it was midnight.

The auction house's owner actually asked Su Mei to look for him in the middle of the night.

After exiting the guest inn, they went through a giant garden before arriving at the giant castle in front of the auction house.

The giant castle was covered in darkness during the middle of the night and was just like an extremely giant monster entrenching in this place. It looked especially sinister and horrific.

The giant castle took up a few tens of thousands of surface areas and was dozens of meters in height. Even with Earth's modern-day technology, it was still a megastructure.

After opening the thick giant doors, there was a sound in the silence of the night, which sounded especially ear-piercing.

After walking into the giant hall in the middle, Yang Dingtian wasn't able to see his own fingers and could only follow Su Mei's fragrance at the front.

The two Martial Ancestor class experts were still following closely, but Su Mei didn't bother.

When arriving at the center of the hall, Su Mei took out a piece of flame crystal and ignited it.

Instantly, the giant hall was illuminated by a bundle of swaying flame.

Under the illumination of the swaying flame, Su Mei got even more mysterious and enchanting.

“He is here.” Su Mei said delicately.

A giant pit suddenly split open on the surface of the ground.

“Let's descend.” Su Mei informed and walked at the front as she walked into this deep underground cavern.

Yang Dingtian hesitated before walking down too.

There was actually a secret underground room, and when Yang Dingtian walked down, there was a commotion above him as the door of the secret room had closed.

Yang Dingtian clearly felt that two Martial Ancestor class experts were increasing their speed and chasing over.

But, there was an even stronger qi presence that extended out suddenly before a cold voice echoed, “You are already at my Master's underground palace. Do you still dare to chase? Hmph!”

After the grunt…

“Pfff…” The two Martial Ancestor class experts from the White Cloud City vomited fresh blood in unison.

They might be reluctant; the two Martial Ancestor class experts still retreated with haste.

A single grunt was enough to make two Martial Ancestor class experts vomit blood. Even if this person wasn't at the Master class, he was extremely close to the Master class.

The owner of the auction house actually possessed a subordinate that was close to the Master class. How much more formidable must the owner be?

After Yang Dingtian entered this small underground room, he continued to descend instantly and rapidly.

This underground room was actually similar to the elevators on Earth, but this world didn't have any elevators. To produce this effect, one would have to rely completely on energy crystals. Just this elevator was already exaggeratingly expensive.

The ‘elevator secret room' continued to descend and descend.

A few dozen meters to over a hundred meters!

After a hundred meters later, the secret room elevator finally stopped.

A door immediately opened.

“Follow me. Look at the ground and don't look anywhere else.” Su Mei whispered.

Su Mei led at the front and lowered her head. She didn't even dare to breathe loudly and didn't dare to make any noise while walking.

Yang Dingtian followed her and vaguely walked across a long hallway in darkness, which was around 30 meters.

Afterward, it was a long flight of stairs that had over 100 steps.

Finally, they arrived at a thick and massive door. Even though they were in darkness, they would faintly feel the mesmerizing radiance from the door.

After pushing the door open, Su Mei spoke with the utmost respect, “Master, I have brought Shen Lang here.”
