Chapter 482: Lava Smelt Sect - 482
The journey back to the writing sect was much livelier than the journey to the Chaos Beasts.
Although the Nascent soul realm cultivators slowed them down a bit, the group that was a part of the Writing sect soon returned.
Zhu Yi briefly returned to the room he had been given before finding a soul formation realm cultivator of the Writing sect.
After a brief conversation, he was told where the sect master stayed. The sect master was not a void traversing realm cultivator.
The void traversing realm cultivator was the grand elder of the Writing sect. The sect master, while quite powerful, was not at that level.
Zhu Yi soon arrived at the room of the sect master. It took up the entire highest floor. The grand elder stayed elsewhere.
Before Zhu Yi even knocked on the door, he heard a voice. "Come in."
Zhu Yi opened the large door and walked inside.
Looking around, the room was a giant library. Such was expected from the Writing sect. Even his room had a large amount of books.
There were also arrays and formations that seemed to be messily placed around the room.
When he walked in, the sect master was sitting in the middle of the room drawing on a talisman. Zhu Yi was unsure of what any of the arrays, formations, or talismans around were.
He only knew the formation that supported the Time Bubble. Unfortunately, he had not been able to use the Time Bubble inside his room for fear of being found out. After all, there was a void traversing realm cultivator here.
After a moment of drawing on the talisman, the sect master looked up.
"Apologies for the wait. I believe you're here to claim your reward."
Zhu Yi nodded. "I am. I'm looking for a sword. I'd like to use all of my contributions in exchange."
Although there was no point system in place, his contribution could be somewhat used like a currency.
"Our writing sect does not have many swords that would satisfy you. Instead, let me hand you this."
The sect master of the writing sect took out a blank piece of paper and wrote some words on it before sealing it with a stamp.
He tossed it towards Zhu Yi. "Hand it to the sect master of the Lava Smelt sect."
"Thank you." Zhu Yi bowed and left.
He then left the writing sect and flew towards the Lava Smelt sect. It was the 7th ranked sect in the world, and the number one forging sect.
If there was a sword that would satisfy Zhu Yi, it would probably be there or in the hands of someone more powerful than him.
As for Chen Jie's sword, it had barely resisted breaking from the last fight, and only because the formless sword did not physically use the sword.
The Lava Smelt sect was not that far from the Writing sect, and Zhu Yi soon arrived.
The sect, as expected, was built inside of a large volcano. It was the largest volcano in the world. Even many cultivators would be unable to resist the eruption that it could create.
As usual, Zhu Yi made his presence known and was greeted by a soul formation realm cultivator in the skies.
On his back were a sword, a shield, and a spear.
"Who are you? I've never seen you before. There shouldn't be an unfamiliar soul formation realm cultivator." The man said.
Zhu Yi explained that he was an independent cultivator and had just participated in the fight against Chaos Beasts. He also explained that he was sent by the sect master to meet the sect master of the Lava Smelt sect.
The man clearly did not believe Zhu Yi was an independent cultivator, but when Zhu Yi showed him the letter, he sent him to the sect master.
Zhu Yi flew down into the volcano and arrived in front of two giant steel doors. There were engravings of dragons on the doors, although there didn't seem to be any dragons in this world.
Still, like many places, dragons were considered to be the peak form of beast and were depicted in countless stories and fairy tales. Zhu Yi knocked on the door, and a loud metal clang rang out.
A female voice came out from behind the door. "If you're that weak, you're not worthy to enter."
Zhu Yi raised his brow. He had knocked lightly due to common courtesy, but if this was the case, so be it.
Zhu Yi increased his strength and hit the door with a hard knock. The metal bent and a slight dent was left in the door. Zhu Yi was surprised.
He had nearly used his full strength, but the door had only made a body sized dent that did not go back far.
Zhu Yi heard a female voice, but ignored it as he got into a punching position. As he prepared, he noticed the door seemingly healing. In a few hours, it would go back to how it was before he punched.
He used his full strength and punched out as hard as he could.
"Wait!"
Too late. His fist hit the door and it bent as if he had just drop kicked a child.
It nearly flew off of its hinges and changed its shape from a rectangle to a cone.
Behind the door, Zhu Yi saw a room with lava flowing around it. Tilting a bit more, he saw a frail looking woman staring at him with a twitching eye.
Realizing that he had gotten ahead of himself, Zhu Yi was about to apologize before a hand smacked at him.
Zhu Yi quickly reacted, but failed to move out of the way. He was hit on the head and smacked face first into the lava below him.
A loud sound rang throughout the sect, and countless people sighed.
Zhu Yi stood up out of the lava and rubbed his head. The frail looking woman looked at him sternly.
"What is wrong with you punk?"
"I said sorry."
"You nearly destroyed my door."
"You taunted me."
The girl shook her head before regaining her composure.
She held out her hand and spoke. "Give me the letter."
Chapter 483: A New Sword - 483
Zhu Yi took the letter out of his spatial ring and handed it to the sect master of the Lava Smelt sect. She tore it open after looking at the seal and read its contents.
After a moment, she spoke. "Take this to deputy sect master Che. That's not enough contribution points for me to make something."
Zhu Yi received the letter and went on his way. After asking a random person, he found the deputy sect masters residence.
As expected, it was only above the sect master's residence. The deeper into the volcano a residence was, the higher the owner's status was within the Lava Smelt Sect.
Zhu Yi knocked on a normally sized door and heard a voice from behind it.
"Come in. Please don't break the door."
Zhu Yi turned the doorknob and entered the room. There, he saw what a real forger looked like.
Old with gray hairs, but a body full of muscle. In comparison, the sect master looked like a girl of below average physical strength, though Zhu Yi knew looks did not necessarily determine strength.
The deputy sect master had a friendly smile on his face. "I've already learned the contents of the letter. All I need from you are the specifics of the sword and I'll make it as strong as the contribution points you have allow."
Zhu Yi nodded and sat across from the man. After a few minutes of discussion, he left and stayed in a guest room.
He practiced the sword for three days, focusing most of his effort on the Breaking through all things technique.
Finally, his sword was completed. He went down to the deputy sect masters residence and looked at his sword.
It was green, similar to the color of Time Qi. It was a basic longsword, and next to it was a similarly colored sheath.
Zhu Yi could tell at a glance that the sword was far stronger than Chen Jie's had been.
"Thank you." Zhu Yi said as he took the sword and the sheath.
"No. Thank you for participating in the fight against Chaos Beasts." The old man said.
Zhu Yi soon took his leave. He kept Chen Jie's sword in his sheath. Perhaps he would give it to a museum later.
There was no need to return to the writing sect. For the next hundred years, he planned to practice the sword. Actually, he would make it a thousand years with the time bubble.
Although he was hesitant to use the time bubble due to his limited lifespan, he was willing to do it this time. Perhaps he would even be able to fight a Chaos Beast on the same level.
Zhu Yi flew until he found a random spot in the woods. After spending a few weeks increasing his understanding of the supporting array to the soul formation level, Zhu Yi used the time bubble.
Now in the soul formation realm, the time bubble sped up time by ten times. Although he still had to spend some time learning the higher level of the time bubble technique, it was negligible.
Within a month of leaving the Lava Smelt Sect, he was practicing the sword within the time bubble.
With his god-level sword talent and Zhou Fan's guidance, Zhu Yi's speed of growth was incredible.
When 99 years had passed outside and 990 years inside of the time bubble, Zhu Yi stepped out.
In an instant, an unstoppable sword intent burst out of him. The surroundings were cut to shreds for a hundred miles, and he had only released that bit accidentally. Countless beasts had died without knowing how.
Zhu Yi took a deep breath, and the sword intent retreated.
He was incomparably powerful compared to his past self. Now, when fighting a Chaos Beast on the same level, he felt as if there was hope.
However, the question was, how would he. Only one soul formation realm Chaos Beast appeared every time, and the three void traversing realm cultivators took care of it.
On second thought, he was probably over estimating himself. He was still in the 1st level of the soul formation realm. Over confidence would get him killed without even knowing how.
Perhaps he would try and fight multiple Nascent soul realm Chaos Beasts. Inside the Time Bubble, Zhou Fan had not been idle.
After a long time, he had finally decided what Divine Physique to give Zhu Yi. Although he could not create some incredible Divine Physique in his current state, he could create the one he had in mind.
His only worry was that it may have some drawbacks, so he would have to see what would happen when he recovered again. He also would not be able to create the divine physique yet. Zhu Yi first required better talent.
After getting used to the fresh air, Zhu Yi flew towards the frost sect. If he was right, this was a place with a clear connection to the celestial ice sect.
He didn't quite know how connected the frost sect was to the celestial ice sect or the incident that he noticed at the writing sect, but he should be safe.
It didn't take long to arrive at the frost sect. The entire sect was built on and within a giant spiky glacier. He made himself known, and a soul formation realm cultivator flew up to meet him.
"What have you come here for?"
Zhu Yi noticed a difference in this person compared to the others he had met. This person was much more arrogant from a glance.
"I'm here to participate in the fight against Chaos Beasts."
"You must be that independent cultivator I've heard about. We'll set you up to fight a nascent soul realm Chaos Beast. Stay in one of the guest rooms."
The man who had greeted him turned around to leave when Zhou Fan spoke again.
"I was wondering if I could fight multiple nascent soul realm Chaos Beasts?"
The man stopped and turned around. He had a confused look on his face.
"Are you trying to sabotage us?"
