Getting Stronger By Fighting

Chapter 999 - 997: The True Strength of the Sword Spirit

Hearing Wang Zhan’s voice, everyone present turned much paler.

Immediately, everyone started heading in the opposite direction.

Clearly, none of them wanted to wait here for their demise.

After all, given Song Tianyang’s strength, if he were to self-destruct, they would all be doomed.

But after taking a few steps, Wang Zhan suddenly stopped, a troubled look appearing on his face.

Zuo Linglong, standing beside him, frowned and asked, "Master, what are you doing? Why aren’t you preparing to leave? If we stay here, we might all be caught in the aftermath..."

Wang Zhan shook his head. After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and slowly said, "Leaving here isn’t difficult, but the more troublesome thing is..."

"If we really leave like this, then the Sky Pavilion might suffer some impact as well. Even if we manage to escape, what about the ordinary people?"

"Moreover, the most important thing is, the Sky Pavilion is our hard-earned base. If it gets destroyed here, it would be a big loss..."

Clearly, Wang Zhan had his own considerations.

Zuo Linglong, beside him, gritted her teeth and said, "If that’s the case, then I will stay by Master’s side. No matter the danger, I will never retreat!"

"Silly girl, with my strength, I can block the aftershock of his self-destruction. I’m not looking to confront him head-on. As long as I can hold him off for a while, the rest doesn’t matter..."

Wang Zhan smiled and said, "Even if I want to get away unscathed, it’s not hard. But if you all stay here, it will become much more complicated. Given your strengths, getting away quickly won’t be easy, so hurry and leave with everyone else."

Zuo Linglong’s eyes became much more teary, her heart filled with emotion. She could feel that Wang Zhan wasn’t joking, and she understood her own limitations. Even if she wanted to stay and help him, she wasn’t capable.

After hesitating for a moment, Zuo Linglong bit her lip and said, "Master, you must be careful. If something happens to you, I’ll live in a nightmare for the rest of my life..."

Wang Zhan nodded, saying nothing more.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Zhan soared into the sky, wielding the Great Void Divine Sword in front of him.

The others narrowed their eyes slightly, and no one spoke.

But soon, they didn’t waste any more time because they all knew that staying here wouldn’t help Wang Zhan and might even cause him trouble.

In an instant, everyone retreated to a Safe Zone.

Then a loud noise echoed by Wang Zhan’s ear as he prepared to act. The Sword Spirit appeared beside him, smiling as he spoke, "How could I let you handle this alone?"

"Additionally, the gap in strength between us is vast. Naturally, I wouldn’t abandon you, but I didn’t think this far initially, which is why I left first..."

"But I must say, your considerations are quite effective. If we all left, it would indeed have a significant impact on the Sky Pavilion, which wouldn’t benefit us."

A slight smile appeared on Wang Zhan’s lips. He had to admit, the Sword Spirit was considerate of him.

The Sword Spirit didn’t have to care, but he stood here, all because of Wang Zhan.

If not for Wang Zhan, the Sword Spirit likely wouldn’t have intervened.

Soon, a loud noise rang in Wang Zhan and the others’ ears.

Then a wave of energy ripples spread out.

Wang Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly, suddenly soaring into the sky, quickly raising the Great Void Divine Sword to shield himself.

Under intense vibration, cracks appeared on the Great Void Divine Sword but were swiftly repaired.

The Sword Spirit also acted, slowly raising his hand as a light screen appeared before them, shielding them from the energy ripple.

In this moment, everyone cheered together.

They never imagined the Sword Spirit’s power had reached such a terrifying level.

One should know, to a certain extent, even Luo Junce is no match for Song Tianyang, but now the Sword Spirit can actually withstand the energy ripples generated by Song Tianyang, which shows the terror of the Sword Spirit.

In the blink of an eye, that energy ripple has gradually disappeared.

And the Sword Spirit has returned to the front of the crowd. After glancing at Wang Zhan beside him, he smiled and said, "Actually, even if he self-destructed, the energy ripples generated wouldn’t pose a big threat to us."

"But I have to say, this guy’s strength is indeed terrifying. If it weren’t for the few of us working together, we wouldn’t have been able to push him to this point."

Wang Zhan nodded, which was indeed the case.

He somewhat underestimated Song Tianyang.

Xiang Tian walked over, arms crossed, and after thoroughly looking at the Sword Spirit, he gave a thumbs up and quickly said, "I never imagined that your strength could be this terrifying. If it really came to a fight, even Brother Wang might not be your match, right?"

Upon hearing this, the Sword Spirit remained silent.

Actually, his current strength is indeed far above Wang Zhan, but that is entirely due to Wang Zhan giving him the Glaze Crystal Body as a form, and the Divine Heart between Heaven and Earth also becoming his heart.

In front of these two things, his strength naturally advanced rapidly, so all of this requires gratitude towards Wang Zhan.

So even if his strength already surpassed Wang Zhan, at no time would he become enemies with him.

The people nearby looked at each other, and then Xiang Tian’s gaze fell on Luo Xue as he continued, "Look at this person, you’re all women, but why is there such a big difference?"

"Her strength is already comparable to Brother Wang’s, but look at yourself? Although you’ve been striving hard during this period, compared to Brother Wang, the gap is still so wide."

"Moreover, you’re probably not even my match, right?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Xue’s expression became rather grim. Having dealt with Song Tianyang should be a joyful matter, but she never expected Xiang Tian to come out with inappropriate remarks at this time.

Luo Xue immediately raised her fist and swung it towards Xiang Tian.

Xiang Tian was startled by this scene, quickly raised his hand and said, "Just because you can’t win with words, you’re ready to take action against me? Women really are troublesome!"

"But I’ll tell you, there are so many people watching us now, if you dare to take action against me, don’t blame me for being rude, although I won’t do anything to you, I can still teach you a lesson!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Xue became even more furious.

In the blink of an eye, she had already clashed with Xiang Tian, while Wang Zhan nearby smiled wryly, shook his head, and said, "I really wonder when these two treasures will grow up?"

"Alright, since everything is settled, let’s not waste time here anymore. Everyone should go back, eat and drink well, after resting tonight, tomorrow we’ll gear up and head straight to Tianyin Gate."

"The last time, Tianyin Gate forced us to use the Sect Protection Formation, this matter can’t be let go easily. Also, if it weren’t for their aggressive approach, I wouldn’t have fallen into a dangerous situation."

Everyone around nodded, obviously, they are already looking up to Wang Zhan.

In the blink of an eye, they’re back inside Tian Pavilion.

But Wang Zhan did not stay with them to continue drinking; he must maintain his peak state.

In an instant, Wang Zhan and the Sword Spirit had returned to the room.

They sat in front of the window, and the Sword Spirit kept looking at the scenery outside, his lips revealing a faint smile as he began to speak on his own, "I really didn’t expect, is this what it feels like to be human? Not only do I have the five senses, but I can also see so much, it’s really comfortable..."

"If it can always be like this, wouldn’t that be a great thing?"

Wang Zhan looked at him curiously, "What’s the matter? Did something happen that made you think this way?"

"With your current strength, even if you wanted to return to your previous form, it probably wouldn’t be possible anymore, right?"

After hearing this, the Sword Spirit just nodded, then smiled and said, "I’ve just grown fond of this life, so I’m worried that someone might disrupt it..."

"As you get stronger, who could change that?"

Wang Zhan patted his shoulder and smiled, "Alright, don’t think too much, get some sleep. Tomorrow we’re going to head to Tianyin Gate."
