Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16277
16275. Chapter 16275 Aoki Sect
The Azure Wood Sect is a small sect with only five Kingdom-level experts. They are famous for the Azure Wood Everlasting Spring Technique, a unique skill whose greatest benefit is longevity. Those who cultivate it live longer than others. However, this makes it unsuitable for combat. But a predecessor in the Azure Wood Sect made changes, adapting the technique to a more effective fighting style: the Azure Sun Sword Qi. This sword technique is incredibly unpredictable; it steals life force. Once unleashed, it silently absorbs the enemy’s life force to nourish the user, making it a particularly insidious technique. This sword technique, combined with the Azure Wood Everlasting Spring Technique, is extremely powerful.
It was precisely because of this that the Qingmu Sect gradually became a sect with some reputation, and also gained a kingdom-level expert.
Previously, the Qingmu Sect was a small sect without even a kingdom-level expert. Some might find this strange, since the Qingmu Everlasting Spring Technique can clearly extend one’s lifespan, allowing one to live longer, why didn’t their sect have a kingdom-level expert? The reason is quite simple: the Qingmu Everlasting Spring Technique is extremely slow to cultivate. Although this technique can extend one’s lifespan, its slow cultivation speed means that many people, while living long, are not very strong. This is a weakness of the Qingmu Sect.
However, the sect elder who created the Qingyang Sword Qi later changed the cultivation method of the Qingmu Changchun Gong. Previously, the Qingmu Changchun Gong required absorbing external spiritual energy for cultivation, but the improved version allows absorption of plant essences, significantly accelerating their cultivation speed. If the Qingmu Sect continues to develop, they could potentially become a major sect.
However, the people of the Qingmu Sect are currently very nervous. They know that the Wanfa Divine Sect is attacking various sects, and since they are not far from the Wuling Sect, they could become a target.
Therefore, after obtaining the method for forging those iron rods, they immediately began forging them. However, their sect’s weapon-forging skills are not very strong, so forging a sufficient number of iron rods is not an easy task. Finally, the people of the Qingmu Sect came up with a solution: to use their sect’s specialty, Qingyang wood, to replace the iron rods, to see if this would work. If it did, it would save them a lot of trouble.
Qingyang wood is an extremely tall and resilient tree with a long lifespan and grows to a height of up to a thousand meters, with trunks tens of meters in diameter. This tree is a specialty of the Qingmu Sect, serving not only to aid in the sect’s cultivation but also as the material used to forge flying swords.
Qingmu Sect flying swords are quite unique; they cannot be made of metal but must be crafted using a special method with Qingyang wood.
Because of this, the Qingmu Sect has its own unique method for refining Qingyang wood. This method is also unique to them, which makes their iron rod forging process relatively slow. Therefore, they later considered whether Qingyang wood could be used as a substitute for iron rods.
After trying it, they suddenly discovered that this method was indeed feasible. The wooden sticks made using Qingyang wood instead of iron rods were just as effective, no less so than iron rods. Because of this, the Qingyang Sect directly changed their refining materials, using Qingyang wood as the raw material to forge the wooden sticks. Moreover, the wooden sticks they forged were a full 500 meters long, and the effect was excellent. Therefore, the area around the Qingyang Sect was already equipped with these wooden sticks made of Qingyang wood, and people were assigned to guard them.
The place where the Qingyang Sect was located was called Qingyang Mountain. It wasn’t originally called that; the Qingyang Sect later changed the name. They cleared all other plants from the mountain and planted Qingyang wood on it, hence the name Qingyang Mountain.
Because the entire mountain was covered with tall Qingyang trees, and all the disciples of the Qingyang Sect lived on the Qingyang trees, they could be considered a rather unique sect in the entire Divine Kingdom.
Guo Yang was a disciple of the Qingmu Sect. His task was to listen to a wooden stick. He knew very well what it represented, so he was extremely careful. The stick was located next to a Qingyang tree, driven deep into the ground. Guo Yang lived under this tree, and he knew he couldn’t stray more than ten zhang (approximately 33 meters) from the stick, so his daily activities were very limited.
That day, after dark, Guo Yang was sitting there cultivating. Although they could absorb the essence of plants for cultivation—which was why they planted Qingyang trees—they contained the most plant essence, and as long as you didn’t collect too much at once, the essence could regenerate. It was precisely for this reason that the Qingmu Sect had switched to planting Qingyang trees.
Guo Yang knew perfectly well that the amount of herbal essence they could collect from each Qingyang Tree each day was limited, but fortunately, his strength wasn’t very high, and the amount he collected each day was enough for his needs.
Just then, Guo Yang suddenly heard a rustling sound. The sound was so loud that it immediately startled him awake. He quickly looked around, then his gaze fell on the wooden stick. Upon seeing the stick, Guo Yang’s expression turned serious. He quickly walked to the stick and pressed his ear to it. The rustling sound became even clearer. Guo Yang’s expression changed, and the next moment, he moved his hand, sending a ball of white light flying into the sky. It exploded, transforming into a huge white sphere of light—this was sending a message to the Qingmu Sect.
After sending the message, Guo Yang’s attention returned to the wooden stick. Just then, he suddenly heard a loud cracking sound, as if something had broken.
Upon hearing the voice, Guo Yang was startled, then his expression changed. Just then, a whooshing sound came, and the next moment, a cultivator who looked to be in his fifties, with dark hair and beard and a tall, upright figure, appeared beside Guo Yang. Upon seeing this cultivator, Guo Yang immediately bowed and said, “Greetings, Supreme Elder.”
The newcomer was none other than a Supreme Elder of the Azure Wood Sect, a Kingdom-level expert named Wei Ling. Wei Ling nodded and then asked, “What happened? What did you hear?”
Guo Yang immediately replied, “Reporting to the Supreme Elder, I just heard a rustling sound, followed by a loud cracking sound…” “It sounded like a stick breaking. I suspect it’s broken.”
Wei Ling nodded without speaking, then walked to the stick, placed his hand on it, closed his eyes, and opened them a moment later. His expression had completely changed. He immediately waved his hand, and a red ball of light flew up into the sky before exploding. After the ball of light exploded, Wei Ling turned to Guo Yang and said, “Return to the sect immediately and prepare for battle.” Guo Yang responded, while Wei Ling flew directly towards the Qingmu Sect and disappeared in the blink of an eye. His speed was much faster than Guo Yang’s.
Guo Yang quickly took to the air, heading straight towards the Qingmu Sect. At the same time, the Qingmu Sect immediately sent out a distress signal from the teleportation array outside the sect, preparing to receive reinforcements. Their defensive array, also azure in color and of the wood element, was also set up. Just as their array was erected
, a Creation Golden Wheel burst forth from the ground, releasing a purple sword aura that struck the defensive array. With a deafening boom, the array was cleaved open by the sword aura. The Qingmu Sect’s defensive array was indeed strong, but it couldn’t withstand the Xu Wood Magnetic Sword Array released by the Creation Golden Wheel. Thus, the array was broken with a single strike, and Xu Ying and the others rushed into the Qingmu Sect.
However, when they rushed into the Azure Wood Sect, they were immediately stunned. There wasn’t a single person to be seen, not even a soul. This greatly surprised Xu Ying and his companions, who were bewildered. Xu Ying glanced around, his gaze finally settling on the Azure Sun Trees. He immediately shouted, “Attack those trees! Destroy them all! Use fire magic!”
The elders of the Blood Slaughter Sect responded, and countless fire spells rained down on the trees. But to Xu Ying’s surprise, the trees secreted a liquid when burned, a liquid with excellent fire-extinguishing properties. The trees didn’t seem to achieve the effect Xu Ying desired.
Upon seeing this, Xu Ying was stunned. He immediately shouted, “Use Divine Fire!” At his command, the elders of the Blood Slaughter Sect instantly understood. With a thought, flames of various colors erupted from their hands and landed on the trees. The sap secreted by the trees couldn’t withstand the flames, and the trees quickly burst into flames. Some trees, upon encountering the flames, froze instantly, then melted into shards of ice when attacked by the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples. To the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples’ surprise, they could see the bodies of cultivators within the ice shards. These bodies were frozen solid, already dead. Now everyone in the Blood Slaughter Sect knew that the Green Wood Sect members had been hiding in the trees, apparently using a wood-based escape technique. (End of Chapter)
