Chapter 1243: Invade the Mountain, One Thousand Sword Formation!

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

“Boss, the sect master is really the worst this time. We did pretty well during the tournament, but he told us to stay…”

“That’s right!”

Ever since they received news that all the people were to move out to West Region, Knife and Thunder started grumbling nonstop in Lovely Land’s headquarters. It was as if these hardened men had become abandoned wives.

“Why didn’t he bring us to fight against the Wild Wolves…?”

“This is a major matter.”

“Even the people we killed could go…”

Bar would occasionally give his two cents as well, but when they saw Silver Wolf’s solemn expression, they quickly stopped.

“Silver Wolf? It’s been a long time, what are you thinking about?”

Ji Feng was also asked to stay. Ever since most of the elites from Lovely Land were mobilized, he drew close to Silver Wolf. When he spoke to Silver Wolf, he showed an air of familiarity, and there were no barriers between them.

Silver Wolf knew that Ji Feng had taken the initiative to get closer to him because his party had coincidentally appeared at Flame Town during the trip to the desert, and because of it, each of them had received a top-class sect contribution reward. Their contributions to the sect were at the top in Lovely Land. The second reason was because of their outstanding performance in the tournament. But the most important reason that made Ji Feng, the vice sect master who had a lot of power in his hands, to draw closer to them was definitely because Happy had given him instructions to get closer to them before he left.

“The sect master led an army to West Region to fight against Evil Emperor this time. Regardless of whether he wins or loses, the results will definitely be very devastating. At that time, some rascals might cause trouble in the Chinese plains. Vice Sect Master Ji, I was wondering whether it is truly necessary for us to stay in the headquarters.”

It might seem normal that Ji Feng stayed, but he had nearly one hundred supreme-class elites stay with him as well, and this was definitely not normal.

Silver Wolf got to know of this data from Bar. Bar was known to have a photographic memory in the army, and his memory was also astonishing. He would never forget anything that he saw. This time, Bar had noticed that nearly one hundred supreme-class elites with great strength during the pre-tournament spars were not sent to West Region. And strangely, all of them were made to stay in the headquarters.

This abnormality caused Silver Wolf to detect that there was something unusual going on.

The battle at West Region might seem important, but a major storm might occur in the Chinese plains as well!

This might also be the reason behind why Happy ordered the four of them to stay at the headquarters.

Ji Feng could tell that Happy valued Silver Wolf and his party really highly from the moment he gave them the top-class sect contribution rewards. Now, when he heard about this, his admiration for Ji Feng grew a little more. He knew that Silver Wolf was not just someone who only knew how to grind, so he nodded immediately.

“When the sect master left, he said that we’ll be fine as long as we can guard the headquarters and the north of the Chinese plains. Wind Assault Tower is in the south, and it’s very stable…”

“Stable?” Silver Wolf sounded a little skeptical.

Ji Feng smiled. “What the sect master means is that even if Dream Clouds wants to take action, it’s meaningless even if they attack Wind Assault Tower in the south, because the pillar of strength in the Chinese plains right now is Lovely Land. If Lovely Land doesn’t fall, even if the south complete falls, Dream Clouds will still end up destroying herself.”

“I see!” Silver Wolf looked as if he had his questions answered.

“So… we won’t have an easy time with this missio. Dream Clouds has been holding back for a few months. She will definitely have a lot of tricks up her sleeve that we can’t underestimate. We cannot afford to be careless.”

“Yes!” Silver Wolf’s expression turned solemn.

After he logged in, Happy brought Thousand-faced Human Fox with him to the valley where the sect master of Zither Sect lived.

But when he was halfway there, he suddenly changed directions. They started clearly diverting from the path to Zither Sect and headed to a mountain that looked like a mountain.

“Master.” When they reached the foot of the mountain, Thousand-faced Human Fox looked at Happy in puzzlement. “We’ve already reached the place belonging to Sword Sect. If we go any further, we might…”

“Get off your horse.”

Happy ignored Thousand-faced Human Fox’s warning. He jumped off his horse and tapped on the ground. Then, he traveled dozens of feet forward like the wind. He stepped on the lush green forests and headed to the top of Sword Sect’s mountain.

Thousand-faced Human Fox’s breathing froze. He did not dare to remain idle and quickly went forward.

When he saw Happy’s fearless movements, Thousand-faced Human Fox could already somewhat guess that Happy was not here for a visit. He might not have good intentions coming here…

The sect master of Sword Sect once fought against Happy. Even though the sect master was forced to retreat in the end, it was still not very logical for them to come to his sect to cause a ruckus.

After some time, Thousand-faced Human Fox could not hold back anymore.

“Master, this is Sword Sect. We don’t have a very good relationship with their sect master. It’s not very nice if we just rush up there fearlessly, right?”

“Are you saying that we should give him a notice that we’re coming?” Happy thought about this in all apparent seriousness. He nodded. “You’re right. He’s a sect master, after all.”

“Huh?”

Before Thousand-faced Human Fox could decipher as to whether Happy was joking, he heard a loud voice rise beside him.

“I, Shaolin disciple Happy, have come for a visit! Sect Master of Sword Sect, please allow me to see you!”

His loud voice spread out leisurely like rolling thunder. It headed to the top of the mountain.

Thousand-faced Human Fox’s face had almost gone slack with shock. He had a lot of grievances in him, but he could say nothing about it. ‘What did I just say?

‘If I knew that Happy could react this way, I wouldn’t have said anything!’

It was already dangerous enough if they charged to Sword Sect fearlessly. If they were careless, they would be discovered by Sword Sect’s disciples, and they would face the danger of being surrounded by Sword Sect.

But this was worse!

They just introduced themselves, and all of Sword Sect heard them clearly. Now, there was no way they could keep a low-profile. They would not be able to get lucky at all!

‘This is bad…’

When he realized this, the wrinkles on Thousand-faced Human Fox—courtesy of him making himself look old—instantly increased. He looked incredibly hilarious.

After some time, Thousand-faced Human Fox and Happy stopped moving.

Thousand-faced Human Fox asked in anguish, “Master, what should we do now?”

“What do you mean, what should we do?”

“Judging by their looks, it’s clear that they don’t want us to go up the mountain! They don’t want us to get down the mountain either!” Thousand-faced Human Fox looked around at the major formation that was made by a thousand people around him. In his anguish, he felt that the light from the swords were very bright, and wherever he looked, all he saw were the cold glints from the swords. If he moved even in the slightest, he would be locked down by countless sword glares and feel their pressure. Cold seeped through his bones.

This was the formation Sword Sect used to protect their sect, and it was the One Thousand Sword Formation. Its power did not lose at all to Shaolin’s Great Arhat Formation and Wudang’s Taichi Sword Formation!

Even so, as he stood in the One Thousand Sword Formation, Happy was very calm.

“I thought that I could meet with the sect master as soon as possible like this. I didn’t expect that Sword Sect would be so hospitable. They actually displayed their splendor like this…? Looks like if we don’t show some of our strength, we won’t be able to get rid of these hospitable Sword Sect members.”

“Hmph!”

A cold snort came from the distance, and it poured into their ears.

“Sect Master Happy, are you thinking about returning Sword Sect’s item with your visit?”

“That’s right.” Happy smiled faintly and answered, “This time, I deliberately came to send Heaven Crystal over. But this is a major matter, so I would like to meet you personally.”

“So, you do have Heaven Crystal with you?” The voice of Sword Sect’s master came forward again. He stopped talking for a moment before he laughed coldly. “If that’s the case, I can retrieve Heaven Crystal from your corpse. At the same time, I’ll take revenge for that good-for-nothing disciple of mine. I’ll kill two birds with one stone.”

‘What a cunning and smart man he is!’

Happy sighed in his heart.

He had already used Heaven Crystal as bait, but he did not fall for it. He still refused to show his face.

Indeed. This time, Happy did not come to have a party with Sword Sect’s master.

The trip to West Region was incredibly important!

If he did not succeed, there was a high possibility that he would be suppressed by Evil Emperor. In fact, he would give others the impression that no one could hope to win against him, and the Wild Wolves’ impression in the whole world would change as well.

To increase his chances of winning, Happy wanted to use the last few days to increase his strength.

The Supreme Technique of the World that he obtained from the alliance master was a very good palm technique. Its strength was above Sun Finger.

Happy originally thought about getting some free time for himself to train, but now, things happened too suddenly. Evil Emperor had already perfected Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art and had entered the dao of heaven. His strength had increased by leaps and bounds, and Happy no longer had a lot of time to train.

Right now, he could only rely on those in the dao of heaven to increase the level of the Supreme Technique of the World as much as possible.

The best way was to fight against those in the dao of heaven and use the chance to quickly increase the martial arts’ realm.

Of course, the fastest way was to actually kill someone in the dao of heaven and complete the breakthrough for the Supreme Technique of the World.

But Sword Sect’s master refused to appear. Clearly, he was wary of the strength Happy showed while he was in possession of Heaven Crystal. The news of his travels in the desert palace had definitely reached him, and even if he was in the dao of heaven, he was uneasy. Before he had a full grasp of Happy’s strength, he did not dare to readily fight against him.

‘That coward.’

Happy cursed in his heart, then turned around to say to Thousand-faced Human Fox, “Later on, when I’m breaking the formation, search for a chance to leave. With your lightness skill, these people will not be able to capture you.”

“It’s not a problem for me to leave, but Master, you…” Thousand-faced Human Fox could tell that Happy wanted to challenge the One Thousand Sword Formation head on, and his expression changed.

“Since I’m already here, if I don’t achieve my goals, I won’t leave readily.”

Happy smiled coldly.

“Then, you must be careful

“Don’t stand around idly either. Right now, all the elites from Sword Sect are already in the area. Sword Sect is definitely empty. Once you free yourself from the sword formation, empty its storage.”

Thousand-faced Human Fox’s eyes lit up!

“Understood!”

Stealing was the thing he loved doing the most, and the harder it was to steal from some place, the more interested he would be in it. This time, his target was Sword Sect, and he was definitely very willing to steal from them.

Right after they finished speaking to each other, Happy and Thousand-faced Human Fox vanished from their spots at the same time.

More than one thousand Sword Sect disciples were spread out in a circular area of 325 feet. They had already locked down on their qi activity, so there was no way they would let them run.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Their longswords left their hands.

A shocking scene appeared.

More than one thousand longswords rose to the air at the same time.

Which meant that more than one thousand people executed the flying sword technique at the same time!

Happy himself was shocked as well. When he saw the sword net formed by a dense wave of swords around him, he felt an incredible, endless pressure descend on him. It was accompanied by countless sharp glares, and it pressed down on him so tightly that he could not breathe. It was as if he was being cut into pieces by thousands of sharp glares.

An unprecedented sense of danger rose in him.
