Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 153 - : Rebellion

Chapter 153: Chapter 153: Rebellion

In this continent, the Other Shore was regarded as the highest realm.

But figures like Bao Dongsheng knew that, in fact, there were other realms above the Other Shore; it’s just that, through the long stretch of history, there had been interruptions in the transmission of knowledge.

Thus, martial arts now had only three levels.

Breaking the Extreme, Soul Nurturing, Other Shore.

However, the Kuangsha Sect had actually unearthed an ancient relic and obtained ancient texts, enabling them to decipher the secrets to breaking through the Other Shore.

What an enormous temptation!

If one talked about Breaking the Extreme, it was merely about breaking through the human body’s limits of strength repeatedly. Thereby, even if one cultivated to the Nine Extremes, one would only possess the strength of tens of thousands of pounds, without any effect on prolonging life.

Moreover, because the method of refining the body was too intense, it might also leave hidden injuries, causing aching bones in old age, and one might even end up paralyzed.

But after stepping into the realm of Soul Nurturing, one could gain an additional fifty years of lifespan. With cultivation techniques that not only did not harm the body but nourished it, even in old age, one would still be strong and healthy, without sickness or disease.

It was only in the last few years of life that one would enter a period of decline, and combat power would rapidly fall.

Upon breaking into the Other Shore, one could gain another fifty years of lifespan, extending the life limit to around two hundred years.

From this, it can be seen that if one could break through above Soul Nurturing, they would definitely gain additional years of life!

How huge a temptation was it to live a few more years?

Especially for those in high positions, who held great authority and enjoyed the limelight, they were even less willing to lose such a lifestyle and become a cold corpse.

So, upon hearing Lu Ying’s words, even the elders were tempted.

Lu Ying smiled, his visit today was partly to show off his strength, but also, indeed, to dissolve the White Cloud Sect.

Throwing out such a big temptation, he did not believe many could resist.

As for Yue Junxian, that was an extra harvest.

A Dual-Attribute Spirit Root was definitely worth cultivating.

Seeing Yue Junxian still hesitating, Lu Ying struck while the iron was hot and continued, “There’s no need to cling to the White Cloud Sect. Just now, you were almost killed by Bai Fei, who saved your life?”

This statement was too unfair. Even without his intervention, Bao Dongsheng would have taken action, and it was impossible to let Bai Fei kill his sect’s disciple.

But now, Yue Junxian got somewhat obsessed with the idea, thinking, indeed, just now Bao Dongsheng and the others did not even make a single sound!

For a moment, he was extremely hesitant.

He prided himself on his integrity, so now, even the decision to betray his sect was truly hard for him.

Seeing this, Lu Ying’s lips curled into a cold smile, but he turned to Nong Yongrui and Peng Feng, saying, “Gentlemen, I sincerely invite you to join the Kuangsha Sect and study the ancient texts. Should I break this oath, may heaven strike me with five thunders, and may I die a horrible death!”

Here, oaths still carried some weight, especially these solemn pledges made in public.

Therefore, Nong Yongrui and Peng Feng immediately showed signs of being moved.

Studying the ancient texts, once successful, they could hope to advance to a higher realm.

As cultivators, shouldn’t they be devoted solely to martial arts? Can’t everything else be put aside?

Moreover, since Chu Xiaotian was slain by Bao Dongsheng over the incident of illicitly mined Spirit Stones, although it had been settled, it still left both of them uneasy.

What if Bao Dongsheng seeks them out for retribution in the future?

This was like a sword hanging over their heads, always having to worry if it’s going to fall, how could they possibly sleep well?

Now that Lu Ying had issued such an invitation, it immediately moved them.

“Lu Ying, are you forcing me to strike you down?” Bao Dongsheng knew he had to do something, otherwise, the White Cloud Sect might just be dismantled by a few words from Lu Ying.

“Old Bao, your strength is merely comparable to mine, do you think you can strike me down?” Lu Ying said proudly. He was, after all, the Grand Elder of Kuangsha Sect and his strength was not much inferior to Fu Yang. He certainly was not afraid of Bao Dongsheng.

“Furthermore, if your White Cloud Sect can’t retain people, don’t blame others for poaching.”

Bao Dongsheng looked toward Nong Yongrui and Peng Feng, and asked, “Do you intend to defect from the sect?”

These two represented a total of seven elders, and if they left, it would surely lead to the departure of the other five elders, causing the White Cloud Sect to truly fall apart.

“Heh, everyone has their own aspirations. It’s not about betrayal,” Lu Ying chimed in at the right moment, “Kuangsha Sect welcomes the addition of you venerable elders. Once you join our sect, you will still be entitled to the treatment of an elder.”

This!

Peng Feng and Nong Yongrui were greatly tempted. They took another look at the elders who followed them, all of whom nodded slightly.

“We’re sorry, Sect Master!” Both of them said at the same time.

Kuangsha Sect had proven through several battles that they had indeed discovered an Ancient relic; otherwise, how could so many geniuses suddenly appear?

The temptation to live a few more years was too strong, and going to Kuangsha Sect would also grant them considerable power; why would they remain fond of the White Cloud Sect?

Water flows downwards, people strive upwards!

Bao Dongsheng trembled with anger, feeling utterly defeated.

–The enemy spoke just a few words and didn’t even offer any tangible benefits, yet what happened?

People flock to them eagerly.

This left him both angry and disappointed.

“Junxian, come here,” Nong Yongrui beckoned Yue Junxian, who was initially his disciple.

“Yes, Master,” Yue Junxian nodded and walked towards Nong Yongrui.

He was initially reluctant to lose face, but with Nong Yongrui’s words, he naturally took the opportunity to step down gracefully.

–As for him, having joined the White Cloud Sect only a few months ago, he naturally didn’t have deep feelings for it.

Under the watch of other disciples of the White Cloud Sect, Nong Yongrui and Peng Feng, along with the other five elders and Yue Junxian, and six more Nurturing Soul disciples, walked over to Lu Ying.

Now, even if a battle were to erupt, Kuangsha Sect would not be at a disadvantage.

“I also want to join Kuangsha Sect,” another disciple from the White Cloud Sect ran towards the Kuangsha Sect.

Bang!

Ma Youfu kicked out, sending that disciple flying back, and scoffed, “Our sect does not take in trash!”

Only those at the Nurturing Soul Level qualified to join Kuangsha Sect!

The White Cloud Sect disciple fell to the ground, immediately spewing fresh blood, his chest caved in enough that it looked like he wouldn’t survive.

“Save me! Save me!” He stretched out his hand toward the White Cloud Sect.

No one paid any attention; what was there to save in such a traitor.

“Liu Shixuan, dare you fight?” Ma Youfu crooked his finger at Liu Shixuan, his provocation clear.

Liu Shixuan said nothing but merely stepped forward, his hands clasped behind his back, graceful as ever.

“I hate your demeanor the most, watch how I beat you into a sorry state!” Ma Youfu laughed loudly and charged at Liu Shixuan.

As soon as they engaged, Ma Youfu took the upper hand.

This caused the already low morale of the White Cloud Sect to fall even further.

You should know that after Liu Shixuan exited his retreat, he was capable of rivaling someone at the six-step Nurturing Soul, indicating he must have made a breakthrough to the fifth step.

But now? He was being suppressed by Ma Youfu in the fight.
