Chapter 123: This Sword Originates From the Barbarian Forest
other text you'd like me to translate!Because throughout the history of the Phoenix Zhang clan, no one has ever been skilled in ocular techniques. Using it would immediately expose their identity. The...The nameless valley to the east of Yue Guo has been completely leveled.
This place is weak, the pits are very deep, and the qi is abnormally chaotic.
The tacit understanding of "stealth and swift victory" maintained by both sides in the conflict was finally shattered by an uncontrollable force.
That terrifying natural phenomenon of lightning and thunder, with the sky becoming dark as night, was now completely exposed to the world. Even from a distance of hundreds of miles away, it was clearly visible.
>
In an instant, a white rainbow streaked eastward, while a black shadow turned westward.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
From "this fellow can be easily wiped out" to "this person is extremely dangerous," the founder of the ruthless Wusheng Sect and the primordial sea monster disguised as a human finally reached a consensus.
One went east, the other west, each soaring high. The sky was clear and bright, a white rainbow streaked across the clouds.
The sea of clouds silently devoured the rainbow, and a white bone seed landed, manifesting the figure of Zhang Linchuan, the ancestor of the Wusheng sect.
At this moment, he looked disheveled and had lost all composure.
The right ear, along with half of the scalp, had been shaved off. Although the bleeding had stopped, the blue veins, red blood, white bone, and raw flesh were twisted together into a neat incision, which was quite terrifying to look at.
His left hand was also cut off three fingers!
When planning to include the Yueguo in his tribulation, Wen Jingxiu, the king of Yueguo, and Gao Zheng, the hidden prime minister, were his only two anticipated dangers. At most, he expected a timely intervention from Mugu Book Academy. He never imagined that an ordinary Shenlin cultivator from Yueguo would possess such strength.

Although he was struck down by a formidable expert like Chong Xuan Chuliang, who possessed a terrifyingly profound path, with an unintentional heart, his cultivation base was still severed. But in self-assessment, sweeping across all cultivators should be possible.
Facing special Divine Descent cultivators, it wouldn't pose a significant challenge to eliminate them like slaughtering chickens. Even a powerful Divine Descent cultivator like Zhang Xun could be effortlessly slain.
In this seventh tribulation, he was cautious and meticulous in selecting the most suitable target, avoiding any potential dangers within the Yue Kingdom's borders. He exploited the gaps in reality to sever the possibility of being tracked by Yue Kingdom's hidden emissary Gao Zheng. However, during a confrontation with Ge Fei, he failed to gain any significant advantage. Despite possessing the perspective of a true god, a nearly perfect White Bone Sacred Physique, and a myriad of unpredictable Xuanfa divine arts, he was unable to achieve the expected ease in eliminating his opponent.
On the contrary, it was frequently injured.
At the cost of eight fingers, one ear, and half his scalp, he managed to only tear off a single arm of Ge Fei.
Both sides fought until the end, completely unable to control the intensity of the battle. All restrictions were broken.
His identity could not be revealed, he couldn't stay for long, and couldn't be noticed by any powerful figures from the righteous path. Seeing that the realm of silence and shadow had been shattered, he launched the first wave of attack, seizing the opportunity to escape.
Just so happened that Ge Fei also thought the same way and designed it accordingly.
He lived a solitary life, never associating with others, but for the first time under this man named Ge Fei, he caught a whiff of "kin."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
They are equally cold and ruthless, but his ruthlessness is cold-blooded, with only the Tao in his heart. Ge Fei's ruthlessness is dominated by beastly nature, while the Tao is sought after for its desires.
Though their paths may differ, their essence is similar, and their destinations are close.
Zhang Linchuan vaguely guessed that this revolution was not the same as the previous one, just like he had replaced eight identities within his original body by sacrificing his soul.
If the past rumors were true, why would they be so unremarkable at Guantanamo Bay and return from the Shanhai Realm with nothing to show for it
Please note that the original content was empty. Therefore, the translation is also empty.
Now this rumor is much better than what Zhang Xun said!
He speculated that the true identity of this mysterious figure, Ge Fei, was also shrouded in darkness. Otherwise, how could Ge Fei maintain such a tacit understanding with him during their battles, and after revealing his true strength and breaking free from the restrictions, why would he choose to leave in a hurry However, right now, he didn't have much inclination to investigate.
It's not that he wouldn't feel close to someone similar. If the opportunity arose, he would definitely crush any dissent and expose this person's secrets little by little. And he didn't doubt his ability to do so. But it needed more time to plan, and now wasn't the right time.
In the present, all eight tribulations are undergoing a shared experience, with each identity facing life and death directly. He doesn't have time to waste. The world is vast, and secrets are scarce.
He, Zhang Linchuan, is by no means unique and unrepeatable.
As for this trip to Yueguo, besides saying that he was unlucky, he didn't have much to say. He admitted to stumbling and falling, then continued walking forward.
Just like in Fenglin City, the White Bone Dao's plan was directed at them. He shifted his attention to seeking the Saintly Body. In Lu Shuang County, Lei Zhanqian's identity was erased, and he sought out the Evil Seed instead. As for the future day, the Sheng Shen Sect was wiped out in a single night, and he turned to pursue the Four Tribulations!
The road is walked out by people. This life has endless paths. Who cares how fate dictates!
Far away from the battlefield, once again distancing himself from divination and concealing his whereabouts, he once again ended the crisis of his own body.
Eight bodies each experience a life-and-death tribulation, designed specifically for each identity. Every tribulation is the most suitable choice based on their individual circumstances, meticulously planned and calculated multiple times over throughout history.
Of course, they are distractions of the Eight Lives, each soul inheriting the wisdom of the original body and merging with their new identity. They possess independent thinking abilities. It's just that they are all under his control.
Sometimes, he would also descend to his secondary body with the principal consciousness, using a lesser amount of power to help his secondary body develop better.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
Every one of his identities was meticulously cultivated. As a result, all the possibilities that stemmed from these identities were thoroughly understood by him. He had also carefully planned for various future developments many times over. Therefore, in this particular time period, he could effortlessly formulate and launch a series of plans.
Among them, the physical body is the most restricted and has the least ability to exert its true strength. As a result, it loses the convenience that comes with "identity". Before losing the teachings of Wu Sheng, it was especially necessary to use one's own eyes to peek into the mist, to probe for safety with flesh and blood, and to have less room for improvisation.
So, in the tribulation he endured within this mortal body, he actually put forth the least effort.
As for the seventh tribulation that this body had crossed, Yue Country was originally the best choice. Unfortunately, fate was not on our side, and things couldn't always go smoothly... That place was already within the territory controlled by another beast.
He idly thought to himself, as he contemplated his next move, that he might as well send an anonymous report to the Duskdrum Academy.
>Report this villain, saying he is a demon or a monster! Force him to prove his innocence. Of course, this won't have much effect.
From Ge Fei's performance, it is evident that he has already won Gao Zheng's support. As long as Yue Guo feels that Ge Fei is fine, it would be pointless for anyone to look for problems.
But to disgust and disrupt it, break its mood, accelerate its development, expose more of its information...it'll make the next confrontation easier.
He had no particular curiosity, but his intuition told him that the secret behind the rumors of "Ge Fei" was far from trivial. This world held too many possibilities, too many opportunities, waiting to be discovered in the future.
The premise is that this time, he can successfully complete the four calamities and reopen the situation. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to stay in the mortal world, and any secrets will have nothing to do with him.

Or, make a surprise attack and take out Jiang Wang's man named Chen Yiwu With so many powerful figures gathered in Dan Guo, if Jiang Wang stirs up trouble, just thinking about it is terrifyingly dangerous. It would undoubtedly be a perfect assassination.

It can be mitigated, it can be mitigated. Or does it still need to receive less information before retreating the choice...
But the Wu Sheng Jiao has been destroyed, and now it is an enemy of all under heaven. Every step is difficult, where can information be found The headquarters of the Ba Fen Xiang Qi Lou in Chu State
Zhang Linchuan, while binding up his severed finger with a white piece of silk cloth in a swift and tidy manner, also forced himself to tie several symmetrical and beautiful flower knots. He pondered intently on his next move.
Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Suddenly, he felt a surge of incredibly powerful spiritual energy, like a howling sea tide, sweeping across the area with incredible force. It slammed into him like a rock!
The moment their spiritual instincts collided, he knew he had been found. Who When Why
Several thoughts flashed through his mind. He, Ge Di, raised his head!
>
Then I saw a familiar person.
Familiar clear and hot eyes, familiar hatred and decisive gaze. So he also saw a familiar sword.
The hilt was like ink, and the blade like snow. There wasn't a single flaw on its entire body. Under the sword ridge, near the guard, were three characters inscribed in regular script: "Yan Gui Chao." Meaning: "Returning to the Nest."
The famous sword of the world, longing for you!
From Linzi to Yanshan Mountain, from the State of Wei to Shílè, and from Shílè to the State of Yue...
The wind and dust swirled, and the mighty Marquis Wu'an of Great Qi, who had already chased tens of thousands of miles, was approaching at a terrifying speed. A blazing sun was before him, his fatigue buried by its light, as if he were dragging the very sun towards them!
Bathed in frost and fire, traversing the azure clouds, shining with seven lights, the sword immortal of the nine heavens descended to earth. As his spiritual awareness locked onto Zhang Linchuan, the sword in his hand shot out!
No one knows what Jiang Wang was feeling at this moment. No one could describe Jiang Wang at this time.
He didn't say a word.
He has run too far, too long, and chased for too long.
At this moment, he had only Zhang Linchuan in his eyes and only the sword strike in his heart.
His hand gripping the hilt of Chang'si sword was remarkably calm and steady at this moment. The tendons bulging, blood seeping into his fingers from that night in the Barbarian Forest... Today, here, release it all!
As his gaze fixated on Zhang Linchuan's body, a frost-white divine seed within his five viscera and six bowels swelled to its limit in an instant. Breaking through its shell like fresh snow, it reached its peak bloom, unfolding a cold white frost flower!
When I first plucked the divine seed of Bu Zhou Feng, it was at the height of my rage, the peak of my killing intent. Driven by the Sha Sheng Ding, it finally took shape.
This time, it came with the weight of the world's fate, rushing through ten thousand miles, sweeping away all enemies. The ultimate killing intent and the overwhelming momentum intertwined, divine powers were affected and bloomed, unfolding the will of heaven's killing.
The momentum and intention had been brewing for a long time. Zhang Linchuan was merely the catalyst, like the first frost arriving. And just as frost bents all things, so too is it due to fate and circumstance.
>
This is the purest killing intent.
> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
To kill an enemy, perhaps it has something to do with love and hate, even with the enemy itself.
When Jiang Wang was twenty-one, he had been practicing swordsmanship for over ten years. He had experienced life and death countless times, but this was the coldest sword strike he had ever made.
This sword strikes its sheath silently, howling yet mute, having even silenced the sound itself! Its power, intention, might, and technique all reach their peak.
Heaven beyond heaven, the Big Dipper shakes. Outside body, sword qi rampant.
At this moment, all mountains and rivers lay prostrate, and even the sturdy pines and withered trees were blown down!
Zhang Linchuan's surrounding trees withered completely, weeds were covered in frost, he walked with reverence and bowed to the ground. The startled birds took flight like a flurry of rain. A terrifying sword strike shattered the meaning of time and space, arriving suddenly.
This is the content translated to English:The text before and after the > tags should be translated.
This sword, originating from the Luoshuang Wild Forest of Qi State, has been gathering strength for countless years, and it is wielded for our friend Lin Wu Xie!
Zhang Linchuan, who could be considered a divine being at his peak, completely felt the danger at this moment. He suddenly realized that this was his seventh tribulation!
He remained unshaken and could not hold back any longer.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The whole person suddenly lost all breath, as if all flesh and blood were gone, his divine power vanished. He stood here, yet he was also not here. The five elements surrounded him, yin and yang enclosed him.
It is the supernatural power, rootless!
Because it has no roots and no bottom, therefore there is no observation or scrutiny. It can sever cause and effect, break the flow of energy, erase traces, and conceal paths. In the development of combat, it can erase the possibility of being hit.
Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But the next moment, Shinto's majesty spread, and the powerful aura of a top-tier deity surged into the sky. Zhang Linchuan appeared again in the mortal world, flesh and blood alive.
Jiang Wang, wielding the fully bloomed Bu Zhou Fengshen Tong, unleashed a complete Dao Sword, driven by the Immortal Swordsman's power. This ultimate strike, brimming with frost, exterminated all things.
He has reached the pinnacle of his swordsmanship in this lifetime.
The icy wind of annihilation swept across all things, shattering that sense of "nothingness"!
From the state of rootlessness, Zhang Linchuan was severed. His possibility of escape was extinguished and he was forced to face death. Around Zhang Linchuan, space rippled like water.
He intended to withstand this strike head-on, and at this moment, he wished to use the Cosmos Rope once more to vanish into the rift between worlds. But that wave was shattered!
Jiang Wang's sword strike was too extreme, too ruthless. There was nothing but killing intent. Nothing else was permitted to exist.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Then kill!
Zhang Linchuan was trapped with nowhere to run, his eyes gleaming like blades.
>
Unrooted, the boundless heavens and earth could not escape him. He countered Jiang Wang's attack with an all-encompassing killing intent. With a forceful flick of his finger, he drew out a bone from his own breastbone, transforming it into a bone pen that curved towards Jiang Wang's brow!
Bones become pens!
In the late Shang Dynasty town of Wan, in Wei State, Qin Wenqi, at the secret suggestion of Dong Fangshi, dismantled the bones of a dismissed county magistrate to make writing implements for Jiang Wang. He then had Jiang Wang write a letter.

Although this punishment may seem fair, there are still evil intentions behind it.
>
After Zhang Linchuan reaped the evil seeds, he and Jiang Wang saw this scene together.
>
And this very scene, at this moment, became Zhang Linchuan's weapon, his starting point, allowing him to unleash the divine power of reincarnation.
"The [Chao Cangwu] Sutra is not extant, but according to the text, "those who have passed away, through the empty wheel of reincarnation, are guided back. The living can go far, and the dead can be reborn."

In the specific manifestation of its powers, this ability can manipulate an opponent's soul, causing their six souls to scatter and one to be extinguished. It also has a higher level of development, allowing it to directly implant a malevolent seed within an enemy's soul. When the seed sprouts, they can directly reap the harvest.
At the beginning, in the Wild Forest of Lùshuāng County.
Whether it was a detailed description of Lin Wu Xie's death, or intentionally mentioning Fenglin City, even at the very beginning he pretended to be strong, mocking Jiang Wang with "you can't afford to play".
All of this is to provoke Jiang Wang's hatred, break down his defenses, and plant a seed of evil deep within his soul. It will be convenient for future confrontations, allowing us to harvest it whenever we want.
That's it, right now!
This scene, where bones are used as a pen, serves as the opening. Each moment of entering the forest is a source, and evil thoughts and hatred converge at this very instant. Kill meets kill, announcing the end.This is the Judge's brush, severing your soul and spirit!
This is absolutely a method that approaches the limit of divine intervention. If not for Zhang Linchuan's insight, it would be impossible to achieve this.
At this moment, the sword of Heaven's Will, Chang Xiangsi, had arrived, its blade swirling with frost wind that carried the icy chill of death. Zhang Linchuan stood calmly, facing it, his bone-chilling calligraphy brush poised to strike at Jiang Wang's brow.
Life and death stand at odds, fighting for a single thread!
It goes without saying, this is definitely the posture of a strong person.
But in Jiang Wang's icy eyes, he saw only the immortal crimson color. The evil seed had never been planted, Jiang Wang's will was unbreakable!
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
The ability to transcend death had been pushed to its limits, yet it couldn't budge Jiang Wang's soul at all.
The white bone judge's pen lightly tapped on Jiang Wang's brow, leaving a blood dot that then stagnated. It subsequently dissolved into bone dust and drifted down like fallen snow.
Zhang Linchuan's real body had already shot out seventy meters. Plop!
In the void, a ghastly white statue split into numerous fragments, shattering from its ethereal existence and crashing to the ground, its spirituality extinguished.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
This is his image of the non-living deity, a manifestation of his piety on the Shinto path and his greatest achievement. Yet it was shattered here.
He really did just experience life or death!
Even the top-tier divine swords, like Ge Fei, wouldn't be able to achieve this. Song Jiangwang's sword strike, accumulating power for a lifetime, managed to do so.
Zhang Linchuan fell silent for a moment, his expression flickering with surprise. This unexpected turn of events made his already grotesque face, half-scalped and scarred, even more menacing.
"How did you know I was here" he asked Jiang Wang.
Jiang Wang held his sword horizontally before him, his left hand forming a pincer grip. He swiped the blade across the bloodstains on the hilt, wiping them away with force.
His crimson eyes, under the sword blade, were parallel to it, always staring at Zhang Linchuan.
With such an attitude, he said: “Someone like you shouldn’t be easily seen through. It wasn't that I predicted your choice, it was that you have committed too many sins, and you've narrowed your own path.”
I presume you understand that your choices are many now. Before what happened in Dan, I thought you would come to Yue.
I contacted the hidden master Gao Zhenren of Yue country, and his answer was that you would never have any gains in Yue country. He is a small figure who led the Immortal Extinction Alliance, and I believe in his power.
So I just need to ask myself—if you were defeated in Vietnam but not killed, what would you do next
When you encounter trouble or unexpected misfortune, you won't run to the mountains of books or to the state of Chu. Because you know, you are a rat in the sewer, afraid of the light. Some powerful people, even if they don't have the time to hunt you down, wouldn't mind wiping you out casually.
If you can't go west or south, then you must be going north or east.
I was simply enjoying the view from the east when I happened to catch a glimpse of your battle wounds. Even with my spiritual awareness spread thin, it wouldn't have been difficult to sense you... ··· This is nothing remarkable.
>
It's certainly not difficult. As long as you are willing to put in the effort, never give up, and dare to fight hard with unwavering determination! While he was speaking, Zhang Linchuan's several blood beads had already been absorbed by a brand new coin.
While Jiang Wang merely looked at Zhang Linchuan coldly: "It may be as you said, Senior Brother Zhang, this is our fate."
"Good! What a coincidence!" Zhang Linchuan smiled. Even at this moment, after witnessing Jiang Wang's divine powers blossom in that sword strike, he remained calm and composed: "So who is the one blocking the way in the north"
“If you go past, you will naturally see.” Faced with this incomparably hot and cunning opponent, Jiang Wang was unwilling to reveal any useful information. He only said, “Why don’t you try it and see if you can still escape”
“I’m not running away.” Zhang Linchuan smiled and shook his head, taking the initiative to walk towards Jiang Wang. “I crossed the tribulation of life and death with the Nine Tribulations Method, I guess you, junior brother, also guessed it, otherwise, you wouldn’t chase me like this. It’s just that I thought I would meet you in the ninth tribulation, so that there would be a sense of destiny, so as not to disappoint our brotherhood.”
"But you're too impatient," he said in a heavy voice. "How could you want to part with life and death when I've only just reached the seventh tribulation" As he spoke softly, there was an unusually eerie thunderbolt that suddenly exploded on Jiang Wang's body! Like venomous leeches, they pierced through the Ruyi Immortal Garment and entangled themselves in Jiang Wang's body.
And at the same time, boom!
A brilliant flash of lightning streaked across the sky.
>
Zhang Linchuan leaped low, reaching out with a grasp. He had drawn his sword from the electricity and aimed this bolt of lightning, splitting the sky, right at Jiang Wang himself!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The gap from outside the Maple Forest City had not narrowed. He spent a lot of effort and took many risks, so that the gap was not crossed.
If we are to fight, then let us fight. If it is heaven's will that we be killed, then let it come.
He believed that Jiang Wang's preparations for the attack were so meticulous, she could still unleash it once more! It was at this very moment.

Jiang Wang's five viscera were open and glowing brightly. There was also a clear, glassy light that revolved around his body. The Heavenly Palace within him had been opened!
玄天琉璃功 activated!
>
At first, Tu Hu offered the Xuan Tian Liu Li Gong as a compensation, precisely because this body-protecting skill's inclusiveness allowed it to complement Jiang Wang's Heavenly Mansion physique, working together harmoniously.
At this moment, the combined force effortlessly insulated the dark electrical thread from their skin.
Jiang Wang's body flowed with ethereal light, but he remained unfazed, as if it were just a gentle breeze and rain. With one foot, he shattered the Azure Cloud mark and rose to his feet, sword drawn across the sky! Whoosh whoosh whoosh ka!
countless strands of silvery frost shot into the sky.
The sky was first illuminated by a massive bolt of lightning, then plunged into darkness the instant Zhang Linchuan drew it back. Thousands of sword threads then crisscrossed the heavens, like moonlight falling as snow, once again illuminating the sky.
Thousands of sword threads have become snow, the world can see frost and snow!
A bolt of lightning that pierced the heavens and earth clashed with a myriad of frost-white sword threads covering the sky.
The boundless frost-white sword silk, like the sky being torn apart, was an overwhelming force! The frigid blade light approached his face in an instant.
A dazzling golden light suddenly burst forth from Jiang Wang's crimson eyes! The battle of souls had begun!
A venerable and majestic portal, booming thunderously open in the heavens. It held an immeasurable and boundless majesty, as if it would make even the celestial heroes prostrate themselves before it.
Days and distances have grown apart, humans and I are now strangers. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The supreme soul-slaying technique of this era, known as the Heavenly Citadel! Once unleashed, it suppresses all.
All under heaven, I alone am supreme!
However, this Spirit Sea of Yuan Shen is unlike any other soul dwelling place that Jiang Wang had entered before. Above there isn't the cosmic void, and below there is no vast, still sea.

Even the mighty surge of the Qisha connecting waterways was inaudible, and the aura of five palaces standing together could not be felt. Only skeletons and fresh blood remained.
A sea of corpses and blood, endless and horrifying. It is a gruesome sight!
Or perhaps, all is contained herein, all already "unborn." In the very center of that sea of blood, piled high are mountains of corpses.
Above the pile of corpses, there stood a giant skeletal throne.
With an indifferent gaze, Zhang Linchuan sat upon the throne of white bones, looking up at the gate that opened in the sky, but with a condescending air, he reached out his claws!
His pale, slender palm suddenly spread out across the heavens and earth, encompassing the entire universe, covering the tiny gate with a single sweep. "After life and death, there is no emperor! Come die with me!"
> the most anticipated match of all.By the Tianfu cultivator Qin Zhichen, against and defeated Xiang Bei's Jiang Wang.Before the game, many people even anxiously hoped that the first half would be skip...
