Chapter 1129: Whetstone

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Silver Wolf had three goals behind why he wanted to follow Happy.

One, he wanted to see just what sort of temperament this person possessed, despite the fact that he claimed to be influenced by Silver Wolf, even though he was the strongest player in the Chinese server.

Two, Silver Wolf wanted to know how Happy managed to become the strongest player in the Chinese player from being a noob in Life and Death Realm, to the point that he was equals with Evil Emperor.

Third, and this was also his true intention. He wanted to use his training trip with Happy in an attempt to increase his speed in making himself and his three other comrades stronger.

The group entered the sea and traveled north to Beijing before they got on shore.

They spent more than one day on the ship.

Fortunately, the boat Song House prepared for Happy had pretty good effects. Aside from having a spacious interior, there were also machine puppets inside that were at Myth Realm. At the same time, there were a few merchants who specialized in selling some basic martial art manuals in the world of martial artists.

Silver Wolf and the other three did not waste their time. Aside from occasionally going out to get a breath of fresh air, they spent most of their time in the ship to train.

But Happy never went inside to train.

He had reached Inaction Realm, but he was only practicing one Inaction Realm ultimate technique as of current—Sun Finger. During his fight against Evil King in Song House, after this martial art reached the sixth level, which was the middle stage of mastery, it had become much more terrifying in terms of strength. Even a real Myth Realm martial artist would have a hard time withstanding Happy’s finger-generated wind, much less those beginner level machine puppets.

Happy spent most of his time at the deck of the ship, and while the elites from Song House took care of him, he dozed off.

Silver Wolf had tried to go over a few times to talk to Happy, but when he saw Happy remaining still and not showing any intention in opening his eyes, for some reason, he got rid of his plan.

*****

Naturally, Happy never wasted his time during the boring journey on the ship.

He had his mind and spirit move to the world three years ago.

He had been cultivating his qi while AFK for a very long time, and his qi had long since reached Inaction Realm, allowing him to cast all those who had just reached Moksha Realm far behind him.

As the first player to reach Inaction Realm, Happy was declared as the forerunner of realms by many people. At the same time, he was also considered by many as the touchstone for martial art manuals.

After all, he was the first to reach Inaction Realm.

As of current, there were already quite a number of Inaction Realm martial art manuals in the game, but no one could tell just which was good, and which was bad. Everyone was waiting for Happy to begin practicing them.

Only when a person practiced a martial art nonstop and at a high intensity would he or she be able to tell whether a martial art was good or bad.

To many people, Happy would need to enter isolated training for three months up to half a year before he could choose a decent martial art.

Butt against everyone’s expectations, Happy chose a lightness skill, body fortification skill, and a sword technique in one go.

He did not choose anything else but focused on training later on.

The people in the game naturally did not know that Happy had the information from the world three years later as his backup. He had a clear understanding of the attributes in the various Inaction Realm martial art manuals from various schools. He could understand their strengths and weaknesses fully, so it was only natural that he did not need to experiment with any of them. There was absolutely no need for him to waste any time in choosing martial arts. He could just choose the best martial art manual from the clan storage.

His lightness skill was Wudang Sect’s Sky Treading Ladder, as for his body fortification skill, it was Asura Sect’s Golden Asura Art, and his sword technique was a unique Inaction Realm martial art known as Destruction Sword Art.

As for his qi cultivation technique, he had Tendon Changing Classic and Nine Yang Divine Skill. Those two were already powerful enough!

*****

While his other self was traveling on a ship in the other world, Happy seized time to arrive at the mountainside where Yin Weed Faction’s nest was. This was one month after he forced Evil King to leave Dafo Temple.

Just as he expected, he met Wan Wan “again” at the mountainside. But this time, Wan Wan had only reached the beginning stage of Myth Stage. Her strength was absolutely not enough to compare to Happy, who had reached Inaction Realm.

“Gusu’s Blue-robed Hero…”

Wan Wan appeared dozens of feet away and stared at Happy warily once he stopped moving. “What business do you have at Yin Weed Faction?”

“Ah, Miss Wan Wan. It’s been a long time since we’ve met. You look even better than you did from before.”

Happy looked up with a smile. He sized up Wan Wan’s devilishly good figure fearlessly. “Summon the Evil King!”

“This is Yin Weed Faction!”

Wan Wan’s tone was firm, but her sparkling eyes betrayed all her thoughts.

“I know that this is Yin Weed Faction’s nest. I will give you three breaths. Call the Evil King, Shi Zhixuan out here within that time, or else, I will level Yin Weed Faction today.”

Before he finished speaking, a monstrous presence and awe-inspiring might suddenly surged out of the darkness at the depths of the mountainside. A voice that sounded like thunder traveled forth like a tidal wave.

“You talk big, boy!”

The awe-inspiring voice traveled forth from the darkness with a sound wave that caused those who heard it to have their eardrums ache in pain, causing their hearts to shudder as well.

However, Happy only had his true qi circulate a little in him, and he quickly chased away all the bad reactions in him. With a calm gaze, he stared at the graceful figure who descended from the sky to land between Wan Wan and himself.

Empress Yin, Zhu Yuyan!

She stared at Happy fiercely. Her pure Great Sky Demon Art caused the entire mountainside to become even darker than before.

A dangerous presence flowed between Happy and Zhu Yuyan!

The elites at the peak of Myth Realm were indeed invincible existences in the current World of Martial Arts, but to Happy, those at the peak of Myth Realm were no longer insurmountable existences. He cast Empress Yin a mild look, and he said lackadaisically, “Empress Yin, are you thinking of stopping me?”

“It’s not your place to run amuck in Yin Weed Faction!” An elite at the peak of Myth Realm had incredibly great dignity. Empress Yin was already completely enraged by Happy’s derisive attitude and complete disregard of the status between them. As she spoke, she spread her fingers. Sky Demon Aura instantly swept through the area. A huge hand with wisps of black fog quietly gathered above Happy’s head…

Sky Demon Hand!

Her killing intent was monstrous!

The moment Empress Yin attacked, she went all out and used her strength as a martial artist at the peak of Myth Realm, looking as if she wanted to kill Happy with just one strike.

“Hmph.”

When he noticed Empress Yin’s ruthless move, a cold glare shone in Happy’s eyes.

The Dragon Swings Its Tail!

Whoosh!

It was clear that this was the first time Zhu Yuyan came into contact with the secret of Happy’s the Dragon Swings Its Tail. Empress Yin had the full damage of the powerful attack from Sky Demon Hand delivered back to her, and it was so fast that Empress Yin was a little caught off guard. She was instantly suppressed, and she even had to face the threat from Happy.

A sword light sliced through the air. Sky Demon Body rose from he, but three slashes were still left behind on her robes.

By the side, Wan Wan could see this the clearest out of anyone else in the area.

At the moment Sky Demon Hand landed on Happy, he had strangely disappeared from before Empress Yin. Then, at the same time, he appeared beside her at a terrifying speed. Not only had he managed to land a solid kick on Empress Yin, he had also delivered a powerful sword technique immediately after. The power that instantly erupted did not lose to the power delivered by a Myth Realm elite at all.

Of course, while the subsequent attack was strange and quick, the damage could not be compared to the ingenious kick. It did not cause Empress Yin any substantial damage or pose as any substantial threat.

Even so, Empress Yin was so shocked by Happy’s lightning-fast counterattack that she was surprised and enraged.

“You’re asking for death!”

Even though Empress Yin had learned about how strong Happy was from the Evil King and had also experienced Happy’s strength firsthand, when she saw the strength in Happy’s sword technique, she immediately came to a conclusion.

He was only running rampant because of the strange technique and his powerful physical body as well as recovery ability. His real strength was still at the beginning stage of Myth Realm. There was no reason for her to fear him.

Once she calmed down, Empress Yin began fighting against Happy with all her strength.

For a period of time, cold wind and sword whines filled the mountainside. The air trembled, and moans could be heard nonstop.

Wan Wan stood outside the battlefield and did not interfere at all. She could only watch Happy and Empress Yin fight. Occasionally, her eyes would shine in faint surprise and puzzlement.

Those who were deeply involved could not see the truth clearly. This statement was true.

After one hundred moves, Wan Wan soon noticed that while the sword technique Happy used was a profound technique, his understanding toward it was not deep enough, and his mastery of it was not high. The trajectory of his moves were too obvious.

And every time, he would use certain ingenious moves to cause pressure to Empress Yin and avoid most of Empress Yin’s attacks, but it seemed like Happy was more obsessed with improving his sword technique.

He had his full attention placed in improving his sword technique, and he no longer had the domineering air he possessed when he first entered the mountainside. He never mentioned the Evil King’s name either.

Happy seemed to be using Empress Yin to practice his sword!

This strange thought appeared in Wan Wan’s head.

Her eyes sparkled for a moment. Wan Wan did not interrupt their sparring. Instead, while Happy fought intensely against her mistress, she slowly tried to figure out how to use Great Sky Demon Art and absorb experience regarding the technique.

Time passed bit by bit.

Two hundred moves… Five hundred… Eight hundred… One thousand moves…

They started exchanging blows faster with each second that passed.

They moved faster and faster!

Destruction Sword Art improved very quickly with a martial artist at the peak of Myth Realm “telling” him where he was wrong. In just an hour, he pushed it to the third realm. Its speed and power also gained obvious improvements.

Right now, even Wan Wan had to focus her full attention on the fight, or else, she would not be able to see the profound principles in their fight.

After two thousand moves, Happy’s Destruction Sword Art had already reached the state where it could deal damage equivalent to those at the middle stage of Myth Realm. With Full Winds in Long Skies, its effect in weakening Sky Demon Aura gradually became clear.

Empress Yin’s expression gradually started losing her cool…

Right now, even if Empress Yin was a slow-witted person, she knew that she had become Happy’s whetstone. She had sharpened Happy’s crude sword technique until it reached the degree where he could begin walking down the path of mastery. In the beginning, he posed as no threat at all, but now, it was strong enough to threaten her.

“Damn it!”

But they had already fought to this stage. No matter what, Empress Yin refused to show weakness.

Clang!

A black light shot out from her sleeve. A fierce sword glare instantly shattered Happy’s attack, and he was forced more than dozens of feet back.

Happy stood still languidly, and a hint of glee appeared on his face.

“You’re finally willing to become serious?”

Wan Wan looked shocked by the side.

Her mistress was forced to use her weapon. By the looks of it, she was prepared to fight with everything she had!

Both of them were engaged in battle once more. Sword glares filled the air, and fierce sword wills intersected with each other. The temperature in the mountainside became much lower, and the place also became much more dangerous.

Two hours passed, and Empress Yin was forced to retreat!

“Senior Zhu, I’ll give you three breath. Call Evil King Shi Zhixuan out, or else, I will enter Yin Weed Faction today and destroy it!”

A clear voice echoed in the mountainside and traveled into the distance.

Happy managed to push Destruction Sword Art to the fifth realm using Empress Yin, and just as he wanted, Evil King came forth. His second whetstone arrived!

When the ship in the other world reached the shore, Happy finally managed to force Evil King to retreat. He returned to the world three years later and left the ship to get on share. Then, they rode to Heaven Mountain!
