Chapter 1047 The Battle Begins
Someone said this, and immediately received the approval of the surrounding crowd.
"That monster was killed once already. Even if it can revive, its strength must be weaker. Moreover, I don't believe it can revive again in such a short time."
Chen Yang, hearing the discussion of the crowd, found it strange.
There were quite a few sect martial artists present, and their strength was not weak. Yet, who could be sure that there would be no accidents when dealing with that monster?
Now that the item had been obtained, leaving this place was the best course of action.
Unbeknownst to Chen Yang, this was a matter of deep-seated hatred between the sects.
"Chen Yang, this is a feud between the major sects. It has nothing to do with you. You are injured now, so you shouldn't get involved."
"Senior Cang Jian, why don't we hand over the inheritance to Chen Yang and let him take it back?"
As soon as the Daoist senior disciple said this, Cang Jian, the great elder of the Sword Sect, took out the Sword Sect's inheritance without a second thought.
He even joked to the others, "How old am I now? If the Sword Sect's inheritance were absorbed by this old man, I probably wouldn't be able to digest it all before I die."
"These things are better left for the young people to enjoy. We old folks have suffered for so many years, it won't hurt to suffer a little more!"
This remark resonated with many people.
After their path to the peak of Grandmaster was cut off, although some still wished to break through, most people preferred to pass on their lifetime's learning to their descendants.
Only in this way could the possibility of success be increased.
As for handing it over to Chen Yang, not a single person worried that Chen Yang would keep the Sword Sect's inheritance for himself.
If Chen Yang hadn't handed it over just now, they wouldn't have had any chance to see this inheritance.
Moreover, Chen Yang had told them everything truthfully!
More importantly, Chen Yang had many secrets about him.
He was not a sect martial artist, yet he had reached such a realm at such a young age.
The Sword Sect's inheritance might not hold much appeal to him.
Chen Yang had also wanted to participate in dealing with the blood qi monster, but thinking of the death qi within him, he could only nod helplessly in agreement.
In his current state, if he were to participate, he would clearly be a burden to everyone.
Before Chen Yang could speak, Chen Shu said, "I'll accompany you. We don't know what we'll encounter on the way. At least I need to ensure you get back safely."
Just as Chen Yang and Chen Shu were about to leave, the great elder of the Sword Sect suddenly blocked Chen Yang's path. He took out a pouch and placed it in Chen Yang's arms, saying in a low voice, "I won't say much. You'd best use this yourself and don't give it to others."
Although Chen Yang didn't know what was inside, he nodded in acknowledgment.
After walking a distance away, Chen Yang finally opened the pouch.
"Spirit stones? No! There's too much spirit energy in these spirit stones!"
Chen Yang was not unfamiliar with spirit stones; he had even seen high-quality spirit stones from the esteemed Boss Rong Yuqing.
But even the best spirit stones from Tian Ji Ling Long were no match for the spirit stones in this pouch.
Did the great elder of the Sword Sect actually carry such a precious item with him?
Chen Shu muttered from the side, "For the Sword Sect's inheritance, you were injured by the death qi. This is something you deserve."
Chen Yang couldn't help but smile wryly, "It was just a small favor."
The two walked back together, also replenishing the blood qi of the bronze tree.
As for the great elder of the Sword Sect and the others who remained, they re-examined the ruins of the Sword Sect. After confirming that nothing was missed, someone sneakily took a few bricks.
Seeing this, the great elder of the Sword Sect had to remind them, "These things are only useful here. If you take them outside, with the spirit energy there, they will turn to dust in a few days."
When that person heard this, their face instantly turned grim. "Damn it, I wanted to study the runes on it!"
Saying that, he threw the object to the ground.
Everyone chuckled and headed towards the direction of the blood qi monster.
As Chen Yang was walking and stopping, preparing to leave the ancient battlefield, the roars and fluctuations emanating from the ancient battlefield made him realize that the battle had already begun.
It wasn't just Chen Yang; the Sacred Moon Divine Venerable, who had escaped from Chen Yang earlier, also sensed the fluctuations of battle.
However, this time, he did not go to join the fray.
After being targeted by Chen Yang's death qi, the Sacred Moon Divine Venerable had developed a hint of fear towards Chen Yang.
Seeing the Sacred Moon Divine Venerable stop, Shi Tianning hurriedly said, "Master, let's hurry! What if we run into Chen Yang again?"
Hearing this address, the Sacred Moon Divine Venerable's skin crawled.
Ever since he had rescued Shi Tianning just now, Shi Tianning had been like this.
The Sacred Moon Divine Venerable understood that this fellow was worried that he would be abandoned here.
"Hmph, don't worry. The direction we are going now, Chen Yang will definitely not come. Let's leave this mountain range first!"
The Sacred Moon Divine Venerable's intention to leave the mountain range was not to follow the original path but to head deeper into the mountain range, planning to leave from another direction.
At this time, the Sacred Moon Divine Venerable had absorbed a considerable amount of the Sword Sect's inheritance and knew the information left behind by the Sword Sect's ancestor.
Meanwhile, in a cave within the ancient battlefield, Old Monster Zhang looked at the corpse before him, tears streaming down his face.
Although the clothes on the body were somewhat torn, they clearly bore Confucian markings.
Furthermore, the deceased was a senior from the Calligraphy and Painting lineage of the Confucian school.
Many people from the Confucian school had entered this place, but there was only this one from the Calligraphy and Painting lineage.
Old Monster Zhang's tears were not just because he had found the other person, but also because his own lifelong stain had a chance to be erased.
After bowing to the senior of the Calligraphy and Painting lineage, Old Monster Zhang collected the remains into his spatial treasure.
Underneath the messy blood-stained clothes, Old Monster Zhang also discovered the Confucian Calligraphy and Painting supreme treasure he had been dreaming of.
As his hand trembled to pick up the Calligraphy and Painting supreme treasure, Old Monster Zhang felt a sense of release. The Confucian Calligraphy and Painting supreme treasure had been found, and his grievances with the Confucian school were cleared.
Old Monster Zhang said with a wry smile, "For you, I don't know how much hardship I've endured in my life!"
"But it has also been a blessing in disguise."
Just as Old Monster Zhang was preparing to return the way he came and leave the ancient battlefield, the battle fluctuations in the distance suddenly caught his attention.
Unlike before, this time there was the aura of a Confucian among the battle fluctuations!
Old Monster Zhang quickly focused his gaze and saw that in the sky, characters formed by inner force were flying about, clearly the work of the Confucian school.
After a period of struggle in his mind, Old Monster Zhang sighed helplessly, and his inner force erupted from his feet, heading towards the direction of the battlefield.
