Who let him join the Sword Sect?!

Chapter 1135 - 534: Assembling the Good Guy Mr. Zhang (Part 3)

He gently touched the enormous wound on his chest and abdomen with his right hand, and it began to heal. The mycelium wriggled, and it quickly returned to its original state.However, this time, Xiao Jing did not attack.

He raised the broken blade in his hand to his eyes, admiring it obsessively. After a moment, he spoke.

"In the primordial times, when the Earth Sea surged and all beings mended the heavens, the ripples of the Earth Sea merged with the sky and formed this blade.

"In the third year of the Shenwu era, this blade fell from the sky and landed in Dongqi’s capital, Baiyujing. Do you know what this signifies?"

Confronted with Xiao Jing’s question, Zhang Ze remained silent.

It’s not that he was posing as an expert or was disdainful of interacting with petty characters like Xiao Jing, but simply because he didn’t know which year was the third year of the Shenwu era.

Fortunately, within Zhang Ze’s body, the well-learned Old Ascenders were many.

Amidst their heated discussions, Zhang Ze caught a few key points.

In the third year of Shenwu, the Demon Race’s royal city, White Emperor City, was devoured by a giant square Great Demon Pig.

If you calculate like this....

This broken blade is a fragment from the time of mending the heavens, which, due to its fragile attachment, fell from the sky in the third year of Shenwu and happened to land in Baiyujing.

The abnormal fluctuations it caused in the Earth Sea further spread to the north, awakening a certain square pig and Xiangxiang.

’Could it be that the Xiao Family has been teaching Xiao Jing about the Holy Land and the Earth Sea knowledge from this weapon all along?’

"Oi! Be careful about badmouthing! I can hear it!" Li’s peeping voice sounded in Zhang Ze’s mind.

It was also one of those transformed into light.

"It’s not me who called it a square pig demon; it was Senior Lu Tianming who said that. If you’re upset, go find her."

Li clicked her tongue, muttered a couple of small curses, and then fell silent.

Xiao Jing, on the other side, seeing Zhang Ze not speaking, was not concerned, and continued speaking to himself.

"This signifies that I am destined by heaven!"

After speaking, he swung the short blade in his hand, and a large gash abruptly appeared on Zhang Ze’s body once more, nearly severing him in half.

Xiao Jing pointed at Zhang Ze again, "Since destiny is with me, why don’t you submit?"

Zhang Ze, whose body once again restored, looked at Xiao Jing—immersed in his artistry, oblivious to the world—and finally spoke his first words after Integration.

"Are you an idiot? What the hell are you talking about? Don’t you know villains die from talking too much?"

Xiao Jing, "?"

Zhang Ze paid no mind to Xiao Jing’s stiff expression and continued, "That broken knife is indeed sharp, but it’s probably also cutting your hand, isn’t it?

"Otherwise, why hide here pretending to be humble? Why not take that broken knife out directly and kill all the beings of the Four Continents, wouldn’t that be delightful?"

Zhang Ze stared at Xiao Jing’s hand holding the knife. Each time he struck, his tiger’s mouth split a little, and that near-perfect body dimmed for a moment.

The fragments manifested from the fusion of Earth Sea ripples and the sky are indeed unbeatable under heaven, but they also constantly backfire on their master.

"Come on, let’s see which of us can endure longer: if that broken knife will betray you first, or if you will cut me down first."

With that, Zhang Ze’s body also began to change, his chest muscles growing firmer, his figure becoming more graceful.

Zhang Ze’s personality temporarily logged off, as Lu Tianming’s persona, Tang Tang, stepped on stage.

Now it’s Old Ascender’s turn to take over.

The Great Brightness Heaven-opening Sword appeared in Lu Tianming’s hand as she pointed it at Xiao Jing.

"Damn you, Xiao Jing, come and fight!"

Xiao Jing glared darkly at Zhang Ze, who had found someone to take over the fight.

This time, he did not swing his knife. Instead, he clenched his hand in the air, creating an endless spatial domain that began expanding around where he stood.

A quarter of an hour later...

Lu Tianming was sent flying away.

"Damn it, if you’ve got the guts, drop that broken knife, and let someone else take over!"

With Lu Tianming’s indignant grumbling, she forcefully logged off, while Zhang Ze’s shared composed body was reformed into Lu Tianming’s master’s figure, that of a little old man.

Meanwhile, Zhang Ze, temporarily logged off, was not idle. He lowered the brightness of the golden space within himself a few levels, then hugged Li, contemplating as he watched Lu Tianming’s master take over the fight.

Lu Tianming, who had been beaten down and forced offline, came back to Zhang Ze’s side and slightly frowned as he spoke.

"Though it’s a bit embarrassing, it seems we can’t outlast him, and if we keep fighting, we’ll definitely lose."

Zhang Ze, "I know."

Lu Tianming, "Then why don’t you think of something?"

"I’m thinking of something," Zhang Ze squinted his eyes, sharing in the agony of the demon blade piercing through his Integration form as he spoke softly.

"Xiao Jing planned everything just to become what I am now.

"This is the first step to his ascension, his diaper; this body shouldn’t be so weak.

"This body, to Xiao Jing, appears perfect, and how could such a body, possibly attesting to the great Dao, be harmed by that broken knife?

"Moreover, I can indeed feel now that the dharma method to restrain that broken knife is hidden within this body.

"This is why he wants to persuade me to surrender instead of dragging on with me.

"I’m close to finding the key..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Tianming quickly fell silent.

As time passed, three hundred and fourteen Old Ascenders had already entered the stage, halved.

Some with Tribulation Cultivation were taken out with a single strike, and it’s currently relying on those in the Mahayana Stage to hold on.

However, just as Lu Tianming was fully warmed up and ready to step on stage for a second time, Zhang Ze, who had been in a daze for a while, suddenly opened his eyes.

"I understand now."

He said, and as the main persona of this body, he forcefully came online.

And when Zhang Ze logged back in, that previously unstoppable demon blade felt obstruction for the first time.

It was tightly gripped in Zhang Ze’s hand.

But Zhang Ze’s hand suffered no injury at all.

Zhang Ze looked at Xiao Jing and smiled, then shouted in anger, "Damn you, Xiao Jing, come and fight!"

Though this battle cry’s momentum lacked the grandeur of Lu Tianming’s, Zhang Ze firmly punched Xiao Jing right in the face.
