Ye Tian was surprised, "You're looking for me?"
Takeda Shinji said faintly, "I'm entrusted by someone. Someone wants your life!"
Ye Tian was calm upon hearing this, "Many people want my life, but to be able to ask you to act, their status must be quite high."
Takeda Shinji replied, "You don't need to ask. The dead don't need to know too much."
Fang Yuanjing quickly asked, "Takeda, what are you doing? This is our honored guest!"
Takeda Shinji said faintly, "I just want to challenge him. Uncle Fang, this matter has nothing to do with you."
Ye Tian said, "This is not a place for fighting. If you have the guts, let's find another place."
Takeda Shinji responded, "Of course. I never pick a location when I kill."
Ye Tian turned and walked towards a mountain peak, with Takeda Shinji following closely. In a moment, their figures disappeared into the dense forest and rocks.
Fang Yuanjing stomped his foot and murmured, "No, I must inform the Palace Master about this!"
Ye Tian and Takeda Shinji, one after the other, arrived at the summit of a mountain peak. The summit was small, no more than a hundred square meters, with a few large rocks and a few ancient pine trees.
Ye Tian stood on a large rock and said faintly, "Takeda Shinji, did someone also ask you to deal with Lan Feng?"
Takeda Shinji snorted, "You know quite a lot."
Ye Tian nodded, "Perfect. Getting rid of you is killing two birds with one stone."
"Get rid of me?" Takeda Shinji laughed heartily, "Do you think becoming a Human Immortal makes you my opponent? I have already comprehended a small part of the profound meanings of the Myriad Sword Stele. With these profound meanings, killing you is not difficult!"
Ye Tian replied, "Is that so? I happen to have comprehended some profound meanings as well."
Takeda Shinji was stunned, "You comprehended too? Impossible! You only looked for such a short time, comprehending even a single word would be difficult!"
Ye Tian said faintly, "Whether I have comprehended or not, you'll know if you try."
Takeda Shinji drew the sword at his waist and said faintly, "Talking more is meaningless. Die!"
He moved, walking with peculiar steps. With each step he took, it seemed as if a force from heaven and earth gathered onto him, and terrifying sword energy pressed down.
Ye Tian looked at him and said faintly, "Your swordsmanship is nothing special."
As he spoke, he pointed his right hand in the air, and a majestic sword intent appeared. The sword energy the opponent had just condensed instantly collapsed. His feet faltered, and he almost fell to the ground.
At this moment, Ye Tian used the Ghost God Step, instantly appearing before him. Takeda Shinji had no time to react before Ye Tian punched him in the chest.
"Crack!"
At such close range, the Hundred Steps Divine Fist was even more powerful. Takeda Shinji's chest was almost pierced, and his heart exploded instantly. His eyes turned blood red, blood seeped from every pore, and his entire body was like a bloodied man.
"You actually comprehended it!" After saying this, he fell heavily to the ground, dying on the spot.
After killing Takeda Shinji, Ye Tian waited where he was, knowing that people from the Myriad Dao Sword Palace would come.
As expected, about ten minutes later, a Taoist priest in a long robe and jade belt appeared. He glanced at Takeda Shinji's corpse, sighed softly, and asked, "Did you kill him?"
Ye Tian replied, "Yes. He wanted to kill me, so I killed him."
The Taoist priest nodded, "To be able to kill Takeda, your strength must be very high. Are you a Human Immortal?"
Ye Tian confirmed, "That's right."
The Taoist priest introduced himself, "I am Mingxu, the Palace Master of the Myriad Dao Sword Palace."
Ye Tian said, "So you are Daoist Mingxu. Takeda wanted to kill me, and I killed him. What is your Myriad Dao Sword Palace's opinion on this?"
Mingxu said faintly, "The dead are gone, and there's no use saying more."
Ye Tian stated, "It is inappropriate for the Myriad Dao Sword Palace to let a Japanese person comprehend the profound meanings of the stone stele."
Mingxu sighed softly, "It was also a last resort, hence this measure."
Ye Tian asked, "How much did the senior who founded the Myriad Dao Sword Palace comprehend back then?"
Mingxu replied, "That was our Palace's founding ancestor, Daoist Lingyun. Daoist Lingyun comprehended a set of cultivation techniques and four sword techniques from the stone stele."
Ye Tian asked, "Are these cultivation techniques and sword techniques lost?"
Mingxu explained, "It is the cultivation technique that is lost. The four sword techniques all require that set of cultivation techniques to be activated, so..."
Ye Tian pondered for a moment and said faintly, "Let's go back first."
