Chapter Forty-Eight: A World Apart

endless stars.In the legends of the floating land, countless stars fell from the sky into the dark abyss, piercing through the floating land and creating the subterranean caverns.Then, as if legend ha...I am indomitable, with an exceptionally sharp personality.

Mojia broke him once in Buxu City. Though he narrowly survived, he didn't become timid as a result. He didn't become "mature" and "clear-sighted" as people imagined.

Just like the flames of a burning torch are extinguished but reignited, but without becoming dull.

He silently wiped the gun barrel, just as he had on the battlefield of Zhuangyong, just like the night before killing Zhuang Gaoxian.

At this time, the voice of Junior Brother Jiang came from the front——

"The Blood River Sect is right here at Bitter Sea Cliff. Zhuge, brother, we've really traveled to the ends of the earth this time."

Wei alone remained silent, only offering a wry smile.

Heavy wind and snow raged across the sky.

It doesn't even touch the hem of Chong Xuan Zun's garment.

He stood still atop the mountain, watching as the Qiongqi, resembling a mountainous beast, charged forward, trampling out one pothole after another in the continuous mountain ranges.

The scene wasn't pretty, but he seemed to be enjoying it.

He could appreciate wisdom, and he could also appreciate savagery.

Good and evil, beauty and ugliness, joy and sorrow, all the distinctions in the world, to him, did not need to be too clear. They were just... scenery by the roadside.

“This is truly a foolish beast, possessing only great strength, vast vitality, and a long life.” Kou Xuejiao pulled at the crimson thread of destiny with her left hand while holding a scarlet-sheathed longsword in her right. She gazed into the distance amidst the howling blizzard: “It has no idea what it is about to face.”

“About that.” Zhong Xu’s lips curved into a faint smile.

"At your young age, you possess such power and elegance. I am truly impressed." Kou Xuejiao expressed with emotion. "When I was your age, I was only at the Shenlin realm. During the Calamity Trial, I encountered a terrifying creature of the Dongzhen level. I fled for seven days and seven nights... before being found by my master. Those were truly agonizing seven days. I thought I wouldn't be able to hold on any longer, but I didn't know where I found the strength... Perhaps it was because I still had ideals unfulfilled Maybe I just didn't want to die."

Zhong Xuan cautiously reached out his fair and strong hand, spreading his five fingers wide. With a single press, countless streaks of moonlight descended from the sky, instantly forming a cage that trapped the ferocious Qiongqi mid-flight, solidifying it in its leaping posture.

The Qiongqi roared furiously, struggling with all its might. Its spiraled horns crackled with electric light. A boundless power surged within its mountainous muscles... The moon prison trembled!

Zhonghuan's palm lay flat, lightly pressing down.

The terrifying power of the profound dark was imbued into the beast's body, instantly pressing it down onto the ridge and creating a massive pit!

The poor Qiongqi was immobile, its voice buried by the mud and stones.

A sliver of moonlight slashed across the ridge of Qiongqi. Suddenly, a flash—a single drop of blood, like a ruby, flew out. Separated by the blade's force, it evaded the wind and snow, landing in Chong Xuan's hand.

>

The palm of my hand bleeds red, the wind and snow separate the world.

He glanced at them silently for a moment before regaining his composure. He casually brushed off a speck of dust from the corner of his clothes and said in a soft voice, "As for this matter of perseverance, I don't quite understand it. I enjoy every choice I make and don't need to grit my teeth and persevere. Perhaps you have more common ground with Jiang Wang."

>

"Jiang Wang" Kou Xuejiao was taken aback, shaking her head with a wry smile. "You guys who are truly blessed, probably wouldn't understand. Many things we have to fight hard for. But everything you have comes so easily..."

Zhong Xuan calmly said, "To attain true essence, who wouldn't be considered a prodigy"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Kou Xuejiao murmured, "But even among geniuses, there are differences. Some talents appear every ten years, while some prodigies emerge once in a millennium."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Chongxuan Zun did not speak, but suddenly let out a light chuckle.

"Why is the Champion Hou laughing" Kou Xuejiao asked.

Zhong Xuan casually said, "I just suddenly thought about it, what if Dou Zhao or Jiang Wang heard your words, how would they respond"

How will they respond

Dǒu Zhāo would say, "What nonsense about once in a millennium! People like me have never existed before, and never will again."

Where's Jiang Wang

“He divides people,” Zhengxuan agreed. “If you’re his friend, he’ll boast and laugh, saying you’ve finally opened your eyes. If you’re his elder, he’ll say, ‘I am honored by your recognition, and I strive to live up to it.’”

"What if they were his enemies" Kou Xuejiao asked.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

>Zhonghuan followed the Dao and said, "He won't waste your time with chatter."

"And you" asked Kou Xuejiao.

Zhong Xuan lightly raised the corner of his mouth, a look of both seriousness and playfulness on his face: "You haven't reached the level where you can comment on my talent."

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

Kouxuejiao was taken aback at first, then speechless, and finally said: "I still admire you. Although you are more hurtful."

Chong Xuan followed with, "Then I admire your discernment."

“I envy you. You’re so young and yet able to face the world with such composure. It's been a long time since I’ve had such an interesting conversation.” Kou Xuejiao seemed sincere, shaking her head and lamenting, “But why do you keep rejecting the Blood River Sect We would offer you the most honorable position and the strongest power…”

Zhonghuan had already given Huo Shi his answer, and she had also given him her answer.

But she doesn't seem to understand, and still holds a grudge.

Speaking and speaking, there was a hint of excitement in his voice: “We open the doors of the Blood River Sect to you, giving you all our respect and honor. Five thousand four hundred years of glory can shine upon you——”

> Because I'm not in the habit of acting with trash.

Zhongxuan turned his head and looked at her.

This statement, like a sharp blade, cut through Kou Xuejiao's overflowing emotions.

The mountain wind blew his white clothes, the barely-there smile on his lips seemed to have turned extremely cold.

Kou Xuejiao was taken aback.

She also felt that at this point, she didn't need to act anymore, so she could express her true feelings.

But unexpectedly, while she was still lamenting this, Chong Xuan had already given up acting and overturned the table so thoroughly.

That placid gaze came over, like a basin of ice water, poured down on my head.

After a moment of surprise, anger flared.

She narrowed her eyes. "What did you say"

The Blood River Sect highly valued Chong Xuan Zun. Kou Xuejiao's treatment of Chong Xuan Zun was always respectful.

The esteemed True Monarch personally took him under his wing, even the position of Headmaster at Blood River Sect could be offered to him.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

How dare he speak such words and act in such a manner

A long-forgotten fury boiled within her, and she drew her sword with rage: "Do you think the Blood River Sect's swordsmanship is ineffective!"

Zhong Xuan's expression was calm.

He didn't even speak.

He just watched silently, watching Kou Xuejiao's anger, watching Kou Xuejiao draw his sword.

That nonchalant, circus-like gaze enraged Kou Xuejiao!

When my mother became famous throughout the land, you, Zhongxuan, were still playing in the mud somewhere!

She was even angry to the point of not wanting to use her Three Thousand Red Dust Swords anymore, unwilling to try the means of a peerless genius of this era. She didn't want to let Chongxuan live for another breath - so she tore down the red thread that had always connected her to heaven!

Since stepping into this lotus world, she has used the guise of searching for the ferocious beast Qiongqi to connect the secrets of this world with red dust lines.

At this moment, no longer concealing it, using the red dust line directly, I tore down the boundless blood-colored heavens.

This lotus world instantly transformed into a bloody one.

This should be easy! Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated.

Large swaths of blood fell, finally turning into a river of blood that poured down!

A blizzard of black wind and snow, washed clean by blood.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

That blood-red, gnashing its teeth, the entire world was trembling.

In such a momentum, Kou Xuejiao roared angrily: "Look at the power of the Blood River Sect! In front of the Blood River Sect, which has stood for 54,000 years, Chongxuan Zun, what right do you have to be arrogant!!!"

Two real people stood facing each other on the peak of a mountain.

Both blood armor and white garments were submerged beneath the river of blood.

But Kou Xuejiao discovered, Chongxuan Zun did not look at her, but raised his head to watch the blood falling from the sky.

Fear Panic

She heard Chong Xuan Zun say, "So this is what you're counting on."

She finally waited until Chongxuan turned to look at her.

But Chong Xuan merely said calmly, "However, what exactly gave you the illusion—making you think you truly pulled down the Blood River"

Kou Xuejiao was astonished!

She found the world was different.

All the mountains' peaks, all the black snow covering the sky, and even the bloody river flowing into the heavens... they were all gone.

She stood alone on the boundless sea, a solitary figure amidst its expanse.

The white-clad Duke stood in the distance, a gigantic full moon hanging behind him.

The bright moon shines upon the sea, humanity sleeps in a dream.

When exactly... did I fall into the moon phase world

The moonlight was bright, and the sea waves were clear. But Kou Xuejiao's heart was sinking.

She couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine as Zhong Xuan, who had sharpened his sword and sailed across the sea, arrived.

"No—cannot be so! I am the guardian of the Xue He Sect, and also a true person of this world. How can I fear!"

She roared in her heart, roaring as she wielded her three thousand red dust swords.

But for some reason, a crimson hue always appeared before my eyes.

Forever unable to escape... Eternal blood!

Once she was so proud and arrogant, but before that eternally uncrossable terrifying power, she could only forever kneel down.

"I do not fear the Dark One, I am, I am... I fear no one!"

Her emotions were nearly shattered, her soul bordering on madness. She brandished her sword, crimson sword energy almost weaving into a cocoon, tightly protecting her within.

“No... how could this happen to me”

She suddenly calmed down, regaining control of the chaotic swordsmanship, making the scarlet sword energy orderly.

She thought, perhaps it was the sudden realization that she had already fallen into the lunar world that caused her defenses to crumble. Perhaps it was the influence of Xuan Zun's power affecting her emotions. She told herself many ways and tried different spells, trying to regain her fighting spirit and composure.

After living in the Blood River Sect for so many years, fighting amidst calamity for so many years, in my own backyard, facing a newly ascended True Core Realm cultivator, I should not be so unsettled!

But at this moment, she suddenly realized—Chongxuan hadn't come to kill her.

The white-clothed Marquis stood silently on the surface of the sea, still as a statue.

The huge full moon, seemed like the crown of a god king.

For some reason, she suddenly felt a sharp pain.

"I see!" Chongxuan said, "That's why you were so weak!"

>

Why

Kou Xuejiao didn't understand.

Zhong Xuan asked again: "You mentioned before that the ugly man carrying a sword you saw, what was his name"

Kou Xuejiao didn't want to answer him. This impolite junior, a reckless and arrogant prodigy, thought he was someone

But for some reason, he subconsciously answered, "Xu Ximing."

"Okay. I remember him," Chongxuan nodded lightly.

Then...he turned and left.

Why

Why

I too, once rode with fine clothes and a fierce steed, galloping across mountains and rivers.

I too, once had bright eyes that saw what I desired.

>

I became renowned throughout the land, I attained enlightenment and achieved the status of a true immortal. With my three thousand crimson swords of mortal dust in hand, I slew demons, battled sea tribes, and clashed with the peerless talents of each era!

Why do you so disdain me, daring to give me your back

Kou Xuejiao gripped her sword tightly, clenching it with all her might. But the tighter she gripped, the more she felt her own weakness, the more she realized the power draining away!

What's wrong

"Stand..."

>

She raised her hand, wanting to make Zhong Xuan stand still.

But the sound was not fully uttered.

At that moment, she suddenly remembered a voice.

A sound heard not long ago.

This is Xu Ximings voice.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

That voice said: “Then take my sword.”

Please note that I removed the unnecessary "" from your input. Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

In the giant moon where Chongxuan Zun's figure had already departed, she seemed to see Xu Ximing, holding a long sword in both hands, dragging it behind him at an awkward angle, rushing towards her.

She finally understood the meaning behind Chongxuan's words, "I see!"

Please provide me with the text you would like me to translate. I can help with that!

"So...I'm already dead."

He died from Xu Ximing's sword.

She leaned back, pained yet serene, her crimson blade dissolving into a thousand threads of red dust.

And just like that, it vanished without a trace.

Three thousand swords of mortal tribulation, scattered into the world.

Click click click click click!

Blood rain fell from the sky.

Zhong Xuan stood silently atop the mountain peak, gazing at the swirling black snowstorm.

Blood rain and black snow mixed together, giving off a cruel and murky feeling.

This was a long-awaited blood rain.

Kou Xuejiao died, but the danger has not been lifted.

>Because the blood still fell.

The whole world is gradually turning red.

Zhong Xuan looked at it for a while and found that it would indeed take some time.

Then, he stepped off the mountaintop and walked with empty steps.

>

Things have come to this... I'll just harvest some more of the essence of these exotic beasts. Wang Yiwu needs enough cultivation resources, after all.

In white robes, he walked towards the desolate beast buried in the mountains, fixed by the moonlight.

As if it had sensed the changes in this world, the ferocious beast, infamous in ancient times, trembled violently. Its massive body, resembling mountains, desperately tried to shrink inward. It probably wanted to bury itself even deeper.

Zhongxuan slowly walked to Qiongqi's back, gracefully pulled a strand of moonlight, formed it into a hollow-cored spear, and thrust it down—

When the real person Jiang rode the vessel of experience, searching for traces of Chongxuan Zun all the way, shouting "I'm coming to save you," he crashed into the Lotus Seed world and charged in... What he saw was this scene.

Upon the monstrous beast's back, which resembled towering mountains, lay a magnificent armchair sculpted from moonlight.

The handsome Marquis in white was lazily leaning half against a chair, holding a book in his hand and reading it slowly.

Black snow, blood rain, all fell behind him.

He was immersed in the ocean of knowledge, oblivious to time.

Beside him stood a shaft of moon-white spear, translucent and hollow. Inside it, blood spurted out in tiny bursts.

In the air, jade bottles hung suspended. Under Chong Xuan's control, they lined up to catch the essence blood, then each carefully sealed with a wooden stopper before landing obediently beside Chong Xuan...each one jumping into the opened storage box.

...gurgling noises...

Upon hearing the sound, everyone turned their heads and saw that not far away there was another burning clay stove with a small teapot on it.

The lid was lifted by the white steam, and the tea inside had come to a boil.
