Chapter 135: Success
Watching the scene unfold, Wang Jie smiled. “Such a grand spectacle. To deal with me, three Full Star Realm experts are here?”
Lie Qiu sneered coldly. “You’re ruthless. No one dares to use Sword Mastery Heaven to threaten us. Who are you? Where do you come from? What is your true goal?”
Wang Jie turned to Feng Wen Sheng. “Did you bring the Slaughter Stones?”
Feng Wen Sheng raised his hand, and one by one, the Slaughter Stones fell from his storage ring. Nine hundred and fifty-two in total, neither more nor less.
“May I ask, can you tell us your true purpose now?”
Wang Jie stood up and stretched his arm. “My goal is only these Slaughter Stones. Nothing more.”
Lie Qiu tied her long hair back and wielded her spear. “I said it before—some questions must wait until after communication. Asking now is pointless.” She finished speaking, spinning her body, and her spear came down from above, crashing violently into the rubble slope. The terrifying Lock Force created visible spear shadows that surged toward Wang Jie, splitting the earth in an instant.
Wang Jie raised an eyebrow, using Armor Eight Steps to dodge, then whistled.
Above, rain began to fall.
A massive figure emerged from the ground, roaring to the sky.
Lie Qiu and the others stared in shock. What was that?
They could never have seen the Stone Sword Creature from the Sixth Layer before. This creature had stayed there, never leaving, until Wang Jie defeated it and brought it out.
Now, this was its first battle since being freed, and it was clearly excited.
Though its wounds hadn’t fully healed, it was still ready to strike.
A stone sword swung at them.
“Dodge!” Lie Qiu shouted.
The three Full Star Realm experts were fine, but the five Star Breaking Realm experts immediately fled in fear. The Stone Sword Creature had seventy thousand battle power, and it could explode to eighty thousand in full force. Right now, aside from Lie Qiu, no one could fight it head-on.
Taking advantage of the chaos caused by the Stone Sword Creature, Wang Jie moved. Using Armor Eight Steps, he left behind a blur of afterimages, landing five strikes that crushed the five Star Breaking Realm experts. Behind him, a shadow trailed him like a phantom. It was the small Full Star Realm cultivator.
This person’s movement technique was shockingly close to Armor Eight Steps—rare indeed.
At this moment, Feng Lang’s shock surpassed even Wang Jie’s.
He could clearly feel that this person was only at Ten Seals level—Ten Seals—and yet, they were so powerful. He had defeated Cui Ye and surpassed his own speed, which was mind-boggling.
He was the Lock Path Interval’s number one practitioner, and even the strongest Full Star Realm cultivator, Zong Cheng Ping, couldn’t match him.
Yet here, this person had surpassed him in speed. How could that be? Who was this person?
Wang Jie suddenly spun, his body shifting with the Sword Step technique.
In that brief moment of change, his movements slowed, and Feng Lang seized the opportunity, thrusting his dagger at Wang Jie’s neck, aiming to tear it open. But that brief delay wasn’t enough to bridge the gap in their speed. As Sword Step activated, Wang Jie not only avoided the attack but also struck Feng Lang’s legs with the technique.
Feng Lang barely dodged but was hit in the back when Wang Jie turned around and pointed at him.
The Heaven and Earth Luo Xuan Finger pierced through his shoulder, sending him flying backward. Immediately afterward, Wang Jie used the Power Accumulation Method to forcibly twist his body’s joints, delivering another strike from an impossible angle.
But that strike was blocked by Feng Wen Sheng.
Feng Wen Sheng stared at Wang Jie in surprise. He had injured Feng Lang right from the start? Feng Lang was the one who should have been the hardest to injure among their five Full Star Realm experts.
“Be careful. His movement technique is faster than mine, and our Lock Force can’t suppress him,” Feng Lang gritted his teeth.
Feng Wen Sheng locked his gaze on Wang Jie. Meanwhile, Lie Qiu was dancing with her spear, clashing with the Stone Sword Creature’s blade. The creature was suppressed—it had absolute power, but not enough to overcome Lie Qiu for now, leaving her unable to deal with Wang Jie.
Wang Jie held his long sword, pointing it at Feng Wen Sheng. “Let’s see if you have the ability to solve me.”
Feng Wen Sheng’s pupils flickered. “Attack!” His voice fell, and with a snap of his palms, the earth shook violently. The wind roared across the Twelfth Layer, transforming into countless wind blades that slashed down, sweeping the area. Feng Lang no longer underestimated his opponent and dashed toward Wang Jie with the fastest movement technique.
The two Full Star Realm experts worked together. Wang Jie didn’t dare to be careless, immediately using Qi Unity, his eyes focusing on Feng Lang and Feng Wen Sheng. He saw where their energy resided, anticipating both their overt and covert moves. Behind him, swords soared into the sky, forming his Sword Form technique.
As his control over Lock Force deepened, his use of Sword Form grew more skillful.
The intense battle shook the entire Twelfth Layer, sending all creatures running. The entire world trembled.
The five Star Breaking Realm cultivators retreated. They thought they could help, but whether it was Wang Jie or the Stone Sword Creature, they were not qualified to interfere.
Especially when the Stone Sword Creature unleashed its Sword Rain technique. The swords became handles, and the rain became blades. Endless sword cries echoed through the heavens.
Lie Qiu was stunned. “Chen, Star Method?”
Her face turned pale, and she stepped back, retreating with fear.
The Stone Sword Creature roared with excitement, its stone sword descending.
Feng Wen Sheng looked on in shock. “A creature that can use Star Method? What the hell?”
Boom!
The world shook.
It took a long while for everything to calm down.
Dust from the earth was blown away, and the rain only grew heavier.
Wang Jie fought on the Stone Sword Creature’s back, the sword pointing diagonally as he gazed at the others. There, Lie Qiu panted heavily, looking ragged. Feng Wen Sheng and Feng Lang both looked at Wang Jie, their eyes filled with deep wariness.
In terms of overall strength, Lie Qiu’s group was stronger, but strength alone didn’t guarantee victory.
At least for now, they couldn’t suppress Wang Jie and the Stone Sword Creature.
The creature especially gave them a strong sense of mystery. Where did this being from Sword Mastery Heaven come from? For a moment, all of them stood at an impasse.
“What’s going on? Can’t you two handle that person?” Lie Qiu asked angrily.
Feng Lang grimaced. “His movement technique is too fast, and his power is too great. Our Lock Force has no effect on him.”
Feng Wen Sheng’s expression darkened. “He’s too experienced in combat. You can’t win him just by numbers.”
Lie Qiu gripped her spear tightly. This was even more troubling. The Stone Sword Creature could use the Star Method—who knew what other tricks it might have? If it was only their current strength, she was sure she could win, but the uncertainty made her uneasy.
“What about the other three? Are we still fighting? If not, give me the Slaughter Stones. If we are, then continue.”
“Roar~~”
Lie Qiu frowned, staring at Wang Jie. “Do you think you can win?”
Wang Jie smiled nonchalantly. “No, but I can definitely drag down two of you.”
Feng Wen Sheng and the others were filled with dread.
“As for which two… I don’t know.” Wang Jie continued.
Lie Qiu lowered her voice. “If you’re confident you can kill this person, I’ll take care of the creature.”
Feng Lang dared not speak. He wasn’t confident.
Feng Wen Sheng thought for a moment. “If there’s one more person, we can handle it.”
“Call Qiu Zhao?”
“Contact her.”
Wang Jie’s voice rang out. “You seem to have forgotten something.”
The three of them looked at him in unison.
Wang Jie’s lips curved into a smile. “I don’t necessarily need to fight you to the death.”
At these words, all three of them turned pale.
That’s right. They had forgotten. This person didn’t have to fight them. He could simply leave. Whether or not they fought wasn’t up to them—it was up to him.
Even if they found Qiu Zhao to guard the entrance and surrounded him with four people, what would they do if this person chose not to fight?
They had underestimated him. The reason they saw him as a problem and had to deal with him now was that he currently controlled Sword Mastery Heaven. If they didn’t resolve him, who would dare to enter Sword Mastery Heaven in the future?
Feng Wen Sheng shouted, “What is your true goal? We’ve already fought once; we all know what we’re dealing with. There’s no need to hide.”
“I told you, I just want the Slaughter Stones. If you don’t give them to me, I’ll just stay here in Sword Mastery Heaven, and anyone who comes to take it will be killed—one by one, two by two.”
“These Slaughter Stones are mostly useless. What’s the point of you taking them?”
“If you’re willing to give me the good ones, I won’t mind.”
Feng Wen Sheng was speechless. This conversation felt eerily familiar.
“By the way, let me tell you something else. I can go anywhere you can go in this place. Where you can’t go, I can still get there.” Wang Jie shouted.
Lie Qiu stared at him. “What cultivation level are you?”
“Guess.”
Lie Qiu’s face turned red with fury.
They had completely lost the initiative. With Wang Jie’s strength, they needed a Full Star Realm expert to face him. But if he himself wasn’t Full Star Realm, only Star Breaking Realm, then he could just hide in the higher layers of Star Breaking Realm. Who could stop him? Unfortunately, the most valuable thing in Sword Mastery Heaven was Star Breaking Realm.
Feng Wen Sheng stopped speaking, silently tossing the Slaughter Stones on the ground to Wang Jie.
Lie Qiu wanted to stop him, but in the end, she didn’t.
Wang Jie collected the Slaughter Stones and sighed in relief. Now, it was time to see if they were useful. It would be a real challenge if he had a thousand useless Slaughter Stones.
“Thank you.”
Feng Wen Sheng glanced at Wang Jie. “I must remind you, Sword Mastery Heaven is not everything in your life. You’ll have to leave one day. These Slaughter Stones are a gift from our Four Alliances and Lone Peak Gorge. Please do not trouble those who enter here in the future.”
The meaning was clear—these Slaughter Stones were a bribe, meant to ensure Wang Jie didn’t interfere with those coming here. But if he left, it would be a different matter.
Wang Jie smiled. “Alright.”
Feng Wen Sheng and the others left.
Wang Jie sat down, exhausted, and looked up at the sky.
Sword Mastery Heaven wasn’t everything to him. By doing this, he had offended the Four Alliances and Lone Peak Gorge, making it difficult to move in the Lock Path Interval in the future.
But there was no choice. He had to climb as quickly as possible.
The Starry Martial Meet wouldn’t wait.
He had to participate.
He needed to reach Star Breaking Realm as soon as possible.
On the other side, Lie Qiu wasn’t satisfied. “To give in like this is the greatest shame of my life.”
Feng Wen Sheng sighed. “Sword Mastery Heaven is so vast. He’s alone, and if he hides, no one can find him. If it were just about the Lock Path Interval, we could think of a way, but if someone from Black White Heaven comes, we won’t be able to handle it.”
“For Black White Heaven, everything that happens in Lock Path Interval is just an ant fight. They won’t care about the reasons.”
Feng Lang spoke in a low voice. “But he’ll have to leave eventually, right?”
Feng Wen Sheng’s eyes flashed. “He’s waiting. He’s betting we won’t give up Sword Mastery Heaven, betting we’ll find a way to make him leave. Every step he takes, he’s controlling the initiative.”
“Dream on,” Lie Qiu scoffed, gritting her teeth. “He really thinks he can rule here. Let’s go.”
Soon, the entrance to Sword Mastery Heaven opened, and the spaceship took off, heading toward the Lock Path Interval.
Once the spaceship left, it meant that Wang Jie couldn’t leave now, even if he wanted to.
But he wasn’t planning on leaving just yet.
The Lock Path Interval would definitely try to force him out of Sword Mastery Heaven. The Slaughter Stone deal was done, and now, it was time for the external deal.
Now, he stood in the field, nervously touching the green sprouts, with a thousand Slaughter Stones in his hands.
At that moment, he could hear his heartbeat—thump, thump, getting faster and faster.
As the Slaughter Stones were thrown into the sprouts, the sprouts began to shrink. Especially when the Slaughter Stones gathered in Sword Mastery Heaven were thrown in, they contracted even more. Wang Jie breathed a sigh of relief. It worked.
As all the Slaughter Stones were inserted, the sprouts fully shrank, emitting a faint glow.
It was done.
Finally, it was done.
