Sword Among Us Chapter 509 – Zhang Sanfeng

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Mu Clan launched its Power Rank system, the four top-class sects finally paid notice to the competition among the scattered great players in the game. They also noticed the benefit in linking the profit of the sect with the sect members. Many systems were launched, and some of the sects which had low profit were suppressed so much that they disbanded, and a mad craze for training rose in the game once again after the people reached Life and Death Realm!

Some of the large-sized sects could not bring out the resources of top-tier sects, and they could watch as a portion of their great fighters went to the four great sects. They said that they would rather chase after the best of the players in those sects rather than wait for their deaths in small sects.

Over the two months, Thunderous Battle happily watched Mu Clan become stronger, and he was filled with even more admiration for Happy, who was much younger than him. His vision was unique and far ahead of its time, and his strength was also terrifying.

Thunderous Battle had worked hard for Mu Clan, but everyone knew that the one who contributed to the growth of the clan the most was Happy!

The only thing that caused Thunderous Battle to feel gloomy was that he had allocated Xu Yao with fifty million taels worth of silver, and she managed the headquarters so well that no one could pick any faults within her work.

“As expected, she’s good.”

Thunderous Battle now knew why Happy found it hard to handle the woman.

If it were not because Xu Yao’s performance in Mu Clan was too inconspicuous, she was quiet, would occasionally become absent-minded, and look troubled, Thunderous Battle would truly wonder whether Happy was mistaken.

This woman did not manage to completely hide her other side.

Hence, Thunderous Battle became certain that there was something wrong with Xu Yao.

However, she did not show any faults in her work, and they might end up botching up this matter because they did something stupid instead of something smart, so he refrained from taking action.

Since Happy had said that Wandering Know-it-all had found that Blood Robes had met up with Xu Yao secretly in the past, with Class One Hall Dream Clouds’ temper, she would definitely use this trump card during the most critical moment.

Thunderous Battle could only wait for a chance.

*****

Two months passed by.

Mu Clan developed smoothly, but Happy faced his greatest challenge yet.

The last page for Nine Yang Divine Skill was Wudang Sect’s Nine Yang Skill. Happy had performed two months’ worth of quests from the Seven Heroes of Wudang Sect and Song Yuanqiao, and he experienced how it was like to train as a Wudang Sect member.

He passed by Dragon Tiger Plum Blossom Shed, and he pushed his Cloud-ascending Ladder to Grandmaster Realm.

He moved through a long valley and fought against Song Yuanqiao to push his Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm to the tenth realm.

He practiced his breathing at the mountain peak, and he pushed his Golden Quintessence Nine Yang Skill to the eighth realm.

If he included the quests from the accursed Song Qingshu, he had already completed no fewer than four quests, but Happy still did not receive any news about Wudang Sect’s Nine Yang Skill. Wudang Sect did not seem to have any intention to hand it to him!

Over the two months, aside from his martial arts growing stronger, Happy obtained nothing!

He was on the verge of giving up.

On one day, when Happy completed a quest to kill an intelligent beast called Brutal Golden Ape at Moksha Realm, he went to the summit with a very heavy heart. When he faced the rising sun, he let out a long sigh.

He decided to sit down!

He crossed his legs and sank to the ground. He simply allowed the red and gentle sunlight shine on his body. With a single thought, he allowed Golden Quintessence Nine Yang Skill to circulate on its own. Under the morning sunlight, countless rays of red light swiftly rose from his body. There was an incredibly dazzling spark within the light, and his strong qi surged madly.

Right then, if he circulated Golden Quintessence Nine Yang Skill three times every day, he could gain at least 0.2 qi points, and over the past two or so months, he had increased twelve qi points just by circulating Golden Quintessence Nine Yang Skill. If he combined it with more than twenty qi points from practicing Golden Quintessence Nine Yang Skill, his qi had already climbed up to 427 qi points.

427 qi points!

In the current state of the game, where everyone was in Life and Death Realm, those qi points were incredibly high. It was the same as him having three high-tier Life and Death Realm martial arts at Grandmaster Realm.

However, the amount of qi did not really help Happy with his problem.

He needed to obtain Nine Yang Divine Skill to handle the fight against One Emperor three months later.

Even though he had come to understand three moves from Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm and had also gained an even greater understanding toward Ten True Dragon Styles’ Dragon Capture and Petite Dragon to the point that their might had increased by leaps and bounds as they complimented each other, Happy was still not confident as to how many sword wills he could take from One Emperor. read comics on our webnovel.live

If he wanted to win against One Emperor, he had to obtain Nine Yang Divine Skill, and only when he perfected it would his qi come in endless streams, which would allow him to use Petite Dragon as he wished. Only then could he be in a relatively safe environment to execute his counterattack, or else, with his current Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm, it would be impossible for him to win against One Emperor.

Even though One Emperor did not represent any faction of power, Happy was the brand of Mu Clan…

He could not lose!

At the very least, when he faced One Emperor, he could not lose.

As Happy thought about it, waves of majestic and dazzling red light swiftly covered his body, and they quickly restored his qi and spirit.

Heat waves tumbled about on the summit, filing a circular area of thirty-two feet!

A few minutes later, Happy became filled with energy, and there was an abundance of qi inside him. True qi circulated vigorously and freely in his meridian system, and it was only then that he stopped circulating his qi to stand up.

When he opened his eyes, an old Daoist who looked like a sage was in front of him. The man had a Daoist hat and a Daoist robe, along with a horsetail whisk. He was also staring at Happy with an amiable expression.

He finally appeared!

In Happy’s previous life, Wudang Sect’s summit was the place where Zhang Sanfeng frequently appeared to train. He would usually come there to practice his sword technique or fist technique and sense the pulse of nature in the world. Almost every day, Happy stayed on the summit in hopes of meeting Zhang Sanfeng.

He had not expected, however, that Zhang Sanfeng would only appear after two months!

Happy did not dare to be negligent, he quickly got up and bowed to him respectfully. “I am Murong Clan’s Happy. Greetings, Spiritual Master Zhang, sect leader of Wudang Sect.”

Zhang Sanfeng smiled faintly.

“I heard about you a few months ago, my young friend. You helped Emei Sect’s Mistress Annihilation attack Light Summit and saved the elites from the six great sects from their disaster. You have done a favor to Wudang Sect, and I should thank you.”

‘If you want to thank me, give me Wudang Sect’s Nine Yang Skill.’

Of course, Happy would not say those words aloud. He wrapped his fist in his palm and said, “I came to Wudang Sect because I heard that Wudang Sect has a page of Nine Yang Skill. I also heard that you have brought your disciple, Zhang Wuji, to Shaolin Temple and Emei Sect to obtain Nine Yang Skill in the past in hopes to obtain the complete Nine Yang Divine Skill, but you failed.”

“I didn’t expect that you would know about this, my young friend.”

A spark shone in Spiritual Master Zhang’s eyes, and there was an underlying meaning to his words.

Happy remained calm when he answered. “I had the fortune of being associated with Zhang Wuji on Spirit Snake Island for a few days. Cult Master Zhang mentioned certain matters to Lion King Xie Sun before, and I heard about it at that moment.”

Zhang Sanfeng was instantly relieved.

“Lion King Xie Xun is a great martial artist of his generation. I wonder how he is right now.”

“Aside from being blind, Lion King is still well right now, and he’s even stronger than before.”

When Happy saw that Zhang Sanfeng had decided to avoid the topic, he felt resigned. But he went along with the flow of the conversation and did not immediately head to Wudang Sect’s Nine Yang Skill again.

After a conversation, Zhang Sanfeng finally dragged the topic back. “I’ve watched you exercise your breathing just now, and you were vigorous and natural in your movements. It is much better than Wudang Sect’s Nine Yang Skill. I wonder whether you used Emei Sect’s Nine Yang Skill or Shaolin Temple’s Nine Yang Skill.”
