A Family of Hopeless Romantics, Except for the Evil Little Junior Brother-Chapter 143: The Stone from Another Mountain Can Polish Jade

“Stop wasting words with him! Slay demons and eliminate evil—brothers, let’s go together!!”

Shangguan Suiyun’s expression was grim. He suddenly raised his right hand and chanted under his breath.

A chilling, eerie white bone sword appeared in his hand.

The sword was bone-white from hilt to tip, the blade shimmering with a strange glow, as if forged from countless vengeful spirits.

As the bone sword appeared, the earth began to quake violently.

With a thunderous boom, towering white bone giants emerged, each several zhang tall.

These white bone giants had massive frames and exuded a stomach-turning stench of decay.

There were seven in total, and each one had the strength of a Body Fusion Stage cultivator.

They flailed their limbs wildly, spewing dark green poisonous miasma in all directions.

If not for the grand formation already in place, the thick poison would’ve engulfed a thousand miles in the blink of an eye.

Wherever the poisonous fog passed, all plants withered, all beasts vanished—it became a land of death.

Five figures clashed fiercely, each surrounded by a powerful domain.

Their domains collided and tore at each other, unleashing apocalyptic waves of energy.

As the battle intensified, giant cracks began to rip through space like monstrous beasts baring their fangs.

Ready to devour everything at any moment.

Even the laws that had once been stable now turned chaotic, forming raging currents that battered everything nearby.

Every cultivator at the Tribulation Stage wielded a unique law of Heaven and Earth—this was their so-called “Dao.”

However, the number of paths that the world could support was extremely limited.

Thus, when one person chose and walked a specific path,

Others aiming for the same path could only linger at the Body Fusion Stage, clinging to their slim hope.

“.......”

“So this is a battle between Tribulation Stage cultivators.”

Eight Body Fusion Stage experts from Mount Shushan were watching the battle.

They didn’t dare get too close, afraid of being caught in the crossfire.

They could only observe from afar and help maintain the Mount Shushan Sword Formation.

A Tribulation Stage powerhouse was not so easily surrounded and killed.

To kill one, at least two other Tribulation Stage cultivators were required.

Direct duels between equals at the Tribulation Stage—where both parties fought to the death under fair conditions—were exceedingly rare.

Even if it came to that, the victor would likely pay a heavy price.

But there were exceptions.

Like a duel between a Tribulation Stage cultivator and one from Mount Shushan, held on Mount Shushan’s own ground.

In that case, the challenger would definitely be at a disadvantage.

That’s the power of home territory.

Mount Shushan’s dominance wasn’t just due to the strength of its disciples.

More importantly, the Mount Shushan Sword Formation’s influence stretched far and wide, almost covering all of Central State.

In other words, even if the battle took place inside the opponent’s cave dwelling, Mount Shushan’s powerhouses could still hold the upper hand.

A Body Fusion Stage sword cultivator from Mount Shushan gazed deeply at the distant battle.

A full-powered clash between Tribulation Stage cultivators was rare and invaluable.

The power and technique displayed in such high-level combat was beyond imagination.

To witness such a soul-stirring duel firsthand would bring immense benefit.

The mindset of any observer would be severely tested and tempered.

One could learn from the strengths of others to make up for one’s own weaknesses. As the saying goes, “The stone from another mountain can polish jade.”

Not long ago, this very Body Fusion Stage sword cultivator had witnessed ten Tribulation Stage experts clash in Daxia. Now, he was seeing this battle too.

Thinking it over, it was likely the Sect Leader had arranged it on purpose.

Knowing he was about to break through a minor realm, the Sect Leader had deliberately used this battle to temper his state of mind.

Thinking this, the sword cultivator nodded slightly, full of respect for the Sect Leader.

He must not fail the Sect Leader’s expectations. Calming his thoughts, the sword cultivator began to focus on the battle.

“............”

Supreme City.

The exact location of Supreme City was nearly impossible to find.

And even if someone found it, they wouldn’t dare enter easily.

A Tribulation Stage powerhouse guarded Supreme City—Shangguan Suiyun had already fused the entire city into himself.

He refined it using his own blood essence, merging it with the formation.

Every grain of sand and stone was infused with his divine sense.

He could teleport to any location using the core of the formation to launch surprise attacks.

And he could draw power from the spiritual veins at will, while intruders had to expend their own true essence.

Shangguan Suiyun, on the other hand, could use spiritual vein power to cast forbidden divine techniques with immense energy costs.

In this way, even those who knew where Supreme City was wouldn’t dare act rashly.

Not to mention that Shangguan Suiyun had hidden Supreme City using a unique divine power.

Even the Heaven’s Secrets Masters of Mount Shushan couldn’t find it.

Unless Shangguan Suiyun revealed it himself.

To avoid arousing suspicion, Li Xuanxiao had sent out hundreds of letters before finally confirming the location of Supreme City.

The schemer always fears being schemed against.

If Shangguan Suiyun pretended to still be obsessed with Feng Liuli, while secretly laying traps, it would be a counter-move.

The idea of a Tribulation Stage powerhouse lying in wait was terrifying enough to imagine.

Now, with Shangguan Suiyun absent, Supreme City had lost its greatest pillar.

At this moment, two Tribulation Stage Elders from Mount Shushan, along with five Body Fusion Stage cultivators, followed the Sect Leader’s instructions and found the long-hidden Supreme City.

Seven of them stood in the core of the formation.

The mist that could deceive even Tribulation Stage cultivators began to fade, revealing the true path ahead. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

“Heh, it’s been years since I stretched these old bones.” The elder in green robes gave a faint smile.

“Yeah. Back then, Supreme City killed my disciple. I’ve never forgotten that grudge. I thought the Sect Leader had let it go.”

“Didn’t expect the Sect Leader remembered and let me handle it personally. I couldn’t ask for more!!” said the white-robed elder solemnly.

The moment he received the order, he rushed here without delay.

Now, the power inside him was almost impossible to suppress.

“This is going to be a tough battle!” The green-robed elder stroked his beard.

Even though the Sect Leader was pulling strings behind the scenes and had already lured Shangguan Suiyun away.

Could a cunning man like Shangguan Suiyun really leave his territory so easily?

Even if he went out, he’d send a clone or split off a strand of his divine soul—that’s just standard procedure.

“I’d actually be more worried if Shangguan Suiyun weren’t here!” The white-robed elder clenched his fist.

But the blue-robed elder wore a troubled expression.

If Shangguan Suiyun was inside Supreme City, their current force might not be enough—they might just fall into his hands instead.

If he was really in Supreme City, even two against one wouldn’t guarantee victory.

And that’s not even counting the at least two Body Fusion Stage cultivators still inside Supreme City.
