Chapter Six Hundred and Twenty Six – A Sword Strike and A Block
The one who spoke was Zuo Mo.
One of his hands was pulling the Three Thousand Threads of Worry as his body hung from the Anti Dragon Claw. However, in the eyes of everyone else, his posture was very strange because they could not see the Three Thousand Threads of Worry in his hand.
Everyone on the battlefield turned to look at Zuo Mo.
Even Zhu Ke and the other two inside the sword wheel couldn’t help but slow down.
But the one most shocked was Lin Qian. His heart jumped. Had Xiao Mo Ge tamed the Anti Dragon Claw?
Impossible!
Mo weapons like the Anti Dragon Claw were not something that general level mo could tame. However, why didn’t the Anti Dragon Claw respond? The Anti Dragon Claw was famed for its savagery and viciousness, how could it tolerate someone close to it?
Lin Qian’ expression was normal but he was shocked inside. His murderousness towards Xiao Mo Ge was so strong, even he was surprised about it. But he had forcibly suppressed the murderousness. The stone stele was the priority, and he had thought Xiao Mo Ge would turn to ash under the backlash of the Anti Dragon Claw.
But Xiao Mo Ge was untouched!
This was unexpected to him. He suddenly found that there were too many unexpected occurrences today. The group of people emerging from the pile of rubble was unexpected, the two women who cultivated shen power were unexpected.
Almost everything unexpected was related to Xiao Mo Ge.
Thinking about his thoughts of killing Xiao Mo Ge, Lin Qian grimaced. Had this been Heaven’s will?
This thought only flashed through his mind and his eyes lit up again.
The dim Tai’a sword rose again. His blue and red eyes were unfathomably deep. The situation was disadvantageous to him. He was already uncertain he could defeat the two women in front of him. Now add on Xiao Mo Ge!
The sword wheel would not last for much longer, he did not have a lot of time left.
He took a deep breath. At this time, all words were a waste to him. Only two words could awaken his fighting spirits and motivation!
“Kun Lun!”
The light words were full of determination as it echoed.
The other Kun Lun sword xiu changed expression. Eldest Shixiong was going all out!
The dimmed Tai’a sword shook and suddenly released a blinding and burning light. The sparks flew off as the blade moved.
Lin Qian stood up straight. His usually gentle brow was fierce and determined, and his face pale.
He was like an unsheathed sword!
The ground continued to tremble. The vast sword essence was like a lead cloud that weighed down on people. The ground underneath Lin Qian cracked, split and crumbled to form a perfectly round pit. The edges of the round hole was rapidly spreading outwards.
It was unable to be stopped!
At the same time, the Tai’a sword that was like a firework sparkler; it gave off a grievous hum as it melted. A hint of sorrow flashed across Lin Qian’s face but his movement did not stop. His sword arm decisively chopped into the air!
The grieving hum of the Tai’a sword echoed through Great Peace City.
The blinding light suddenly expanded and a terrifying sword essence immediately covered all of Great Peace City!
As though a sun was rising at Great Peace City!
Roar!
A savage and vicious roar was like thunder. The ground shook as though it was being hammered, all of Great Peace City shook. The vast wave of air was like a hard wall that swept outwards. Those that were weak were thrown into the air as though they were hit by something! Even Zhu Ke and the other were almost unable to stay standing. All of them stumbled and had to use all their strength to steady themselves. The blood drained from their faces.
Even they couldn’t help but feel fear in the face of such a terrifying sword essence.
The terrifying wave of air that was like a metal wall rolled through Great Peace City.
When the light dissipated and the scene appeared in front of them, all of them had ashen complexions. More than half of the soaring structures in Great Peace City had been been cut down.
But when they recovered from their shock, they immediately looked towards the stele forest.
Lin Qian stood upright like a sword.
Between himself and Xiao Mo Ge stood a dragon claw. Near the two, the ground had been erased. Only the ground under Xiao Mo Ge had not disappeared. It was like a slice of cake had been cut from the earth and stretched out behind him.
Zuo Mo used the Anti Dragon Claw to block this blow.
At the crucial moment, he channeled the Three Thousand Threads of Worry and pushed the Anti Dragon Claw in front of him to stop Lin Qian’s sword strike!
The Anti Dragon Claw had shrank after enduring this blow and became Zuo Mo’s height.
Zhu Ke and the others stared with wide eyes and looked in disbelief at Zuo Mo. Even they didn’t dare to touch the power of that blow just now and Xiao Mo Ge had managed to stop it!
Xiao Mo Ge had really tamed the Anti Dragon Claw!
They had no more doubts. If he had not done so, Xiao Mo Ge would not be able to stop the power of that sword strike with his own power!
Lin Qian’s strength shocked them but Xiao Mo Ge’s display was even more unexpected.
A general level was able to subdue the Anti Dragon Claw. It was absurd to hear but it happened in front of them.
From the moment Xiao Mo Ge had appeared in Great Peace City, a string of impossible events had continued to occur. The worldly apparition Shifting Star Stands, surpassing Qi Diao Yu’s record, defeating Shen Yu who had comprehended the [Peacock King Plume], causing the Great Peace Treasure Pavilion to appear, and now subduing the Anti Dragon Claw and blocking that stunning blow.
He was not favored each time but he would always achieve victory.
Xiao Mo Ge seemed like a freak and there seemed to be a group of freaks around him.
This guy … …
———
Lin Qian’s eyes were stunned and his complexion was ashen white.
He had not expected that Xiao Mo Ge could stop his blow!
He had gambled everything on this blow. At a cost of wounding himself, and the Tai’a sword being destroyed, he had used a secret method to temporarily increase his cultivation in order to use such great power.
He had never fought so hard, never.
In past battles, he had always been untouched and at ease. He had never lost before, he was always full of confidence in himself. From a very long time ago, he did not participate in the tournaments between the third generation disciples because his strength had even surpassed majority of elders in the sect.
At his age, he stood as one of the most outstanding geniuses in Kun Lun’s history.
Even deep in the mo territories, he was not afraid. He had absolute confidence in himself.
The sect leader had also been full of confidence in their mission. Everyone believed that Lin Qian would not have a match below marshal level.
Yet the reality in front of him allowed him to discover that his pride was laughable.
A general rank youth that was younger than him had easily stopped his most powerful sword strike.
Anti Dragon Claw!
Looking at the almost-living dragon claw, for a moment, Lin Qian’s eyes were dazed.
The power of the mo weapon?
The Tai’a sword was lacking greatly compared to the Anti Dragon Claw. He knew this well. It was not that Kun Lun did not have better flying swords but the Tai’a sword was the most powerful sword that he could currently use. He did not have enough cultivation for the ancient and great flying swords sealed in the Sword Pavilion.
But this guy who was just general level had tamed the Anti Dragon Claw.
This completely upended his knowledge of the world.
No wonder he felt murderousness towards the other, was this a fated enemy?
Lin Qian smiled. He was not an ordinary person and quickly recovered his calm. But he knew that he did not have any more power to fight. He had truly failed in his mission.
He quickly recovered his confidence and the red and blue retreated from his eyes. He looked at Zuo Mo and suddenly said in a loud voice, “This one is the first seated disciple of Kun Lun, Lin Qian. Xiao Mo Ge, if you and I ever meet, let us fight again!”
Finishing, Lin Qian turned and walked away.
Pew, the stone stele behind Zuo Mo turned to powder.
Yet at this time, no one dared to speak. Everyone was deeply attracted to this figure of extraordinary presence. Many people showed realization. The first seated disciple of Kun Lun, no wonder he was so extraordinary!
No one dared to stop him.
The remaining Kun Lun sword xiu silently flew next to Lin Qian and formed a defensive perimeter around him.
Everyone in Great Peace City would remember the name Lin Qian.
But then everyone turned to look at Zuo Mo. If it wasn’t for Xiao Mo Ge, all of the mo in Great Peace City would have ended up as side-acts to Lin Qian. Many people felt great pity that the Mo Skill Stele had been destroyed but compared to it being stolen by Lin Qian, everyone could accept the present result.
This battle was fated to shake all of the mo territories. They were undoubtedly a minor accompaniment in a battle like this, and it was a humiliation for them.
In the eyes of the world, Xiao Mo Ge who had stopped Lin Qian was the hero of the mo.
This youth that had come out of nowhere and was of unknown origins.
Along with this battle, his name would spread throughout the mo territories!
Yet no one realized that an even greater danger was silently marching towards them.
———
Zuo Mo was completely void of strength and unable to move. His eyes were filled with shock and fear.
Lin Qian’s blow had managed to force himself out of his icy state. If he hadn’t used the Three Thousand Threads of Worry to pull the Anti Dragon Claw in front of him at the crucial moment, he wouldn’t have been able to survive.
Terrifying and unparalleled strength!
Even if Zuo Mo had a deep hatred of Kun Lun, he couldn’t help but feel terror at Lin Qian’s power. He was unable to imagine how this person had cultivated.
He had never underestimated Kun Lun’s power but when he truly fought against Kun Lun, he found that Kun Lun’s strength was even greater than he had predicted!
Just one Lin Qian was so powerful … …
He really couldn’t imagine it!
Zuo Mo laughed. His thoughts of finding Kun Lun and getting revenge seemed so laughable and out of his reach.
But no matter how laughable and distant it was, so what?
Who made it so that we had a grievance to settle?
Fighting spirit flashed through Zuo Mo’s eyes and he became motivated again! His expression suddenly changed and he wailed, “A Gui, A Gui, help me, my feet are trembling, I can’t stand up, can’t stand up!”
When his gaze casually looked into the sky, he froze.
There was a dense group of black dots in the air like a black cloud coming at a rapid speed.
Zuo Mo’s eyes were keen and his expression changed. That was a charging formation!
He suddenly used all the strength he had and shouted at the top of his lungs, “Shu Long!”
Translator Ramblings: Oops … … total accident. It was OLD.
Thanks for the chapter!
Thanks for the chapter 🙂
Thanks for the chapter
Well, now that he’s shown off his personal power, time for him to show off the power of his followers.
Thanks for the chapter!
Thanks for the chapter. (^v^)/
They (was) undoubtedly a minor accompaniment in a battle like this, /(*.*)?

They were undoubtedly a minor accompaniment in a battle like this, –(^-^)
Lil cliffy why you do this to me? /(T-T)\
Duh, because Lil Cliffy is a yandere.
Much thanks.
And why exactly are they letting the first seat disciple of such power just walk away after he is spent? Sure Kun Lun will sent a tactical nuke your way for revenge but you lot are kind of at war. =_=
Cause he is needed for future plot, as one of Zuo Mo’s archenemies.
Thanks for the chapter!
They dont know he is spent, duh.
Also, would you dare to attack someone who calmly walks away after stating he is the best among the disciples (and probably the succesor) of one of the greatest sects(/organization)? AFTER a power display like that? among the bests in a city where experts and geniuses COME TO LEARN FIGHTING???
on that note, yes, its really dumb but hey! the 3 strongest could do anything against him, the jokers (ZM and co.) did stoped him though, but spent al thier power on it and he. just. walked. away! as if it were nothing worth a raised eyebrow.
I’d imagine that’s the very compelling reason to ensure his death future troubles and all that and you would imagine as top tier experts they would have some clues about what such powerful attacks or just prolonged fighting does with fatigue/resource depletion no? It’s why they are supposedly experts besides being powerful.
You need te read again this part =>
“A savage and vicious roar was like thunder. The ground shook as though it was being hammered, all of Great Peace City shook. The vast wave of air was like a hard wall that swept outwards. Those that were weak were thrown into the air as though they were hit by something! Even Zhu Ke and the other were ALMOST UNABLE to STAY STANDING. All of them stumbled and had to use ALL THEIR STRENGTH to steady themselves. The blood drained from their faces.”
See ?, all of them are spent.
Sound like ge gonna get princess carry again
Oh hello there cliffhanger. Time to hoard up on patience to play the waiting game.😭 Is the troop charging in the Green Yaksha Mo? Or maybe ‘Lil Miss and gang? (I’ve missed them). Thank you for the daily chapter updates! 🙌
Haha, love how the entire plot centers around getting this one of a kind stone stele that is absolutely essential for everyone to reach the heights of cultivation, and in the end it ends up destroyed and nobody really cares and it isn’t even that important it seems.
And Zuo Mo is hilarious after every big fight of his, no presence of an expert at all haha
Why do I felt like that the original stele was swapped with a fake one earlier by the black yao! I maybe wrong!
Oh, so you had that thought too… 😀 It would be funny if it was so. Or if at least (like someone mentioned) someone from Zuo Mo’s group had enough time to read and memorize it. Since knowledge is power. And monopoly to this kind of knowledge is key to world domination. And that is totally ZM Group’s kind of thing 😀
I don’t know if he’swapped it, but Lin Qian is not the only one with eidetic(?) ..err.. photograph memory.. i’m sure that the smoky trap yao already got a good look of it~
Lol, smoky TRAP yao…You’re not going to let Old Black forget his traumatic past, are you?
I guess they are still in shock about the destruction of the mo ‘shen’ stele…and on the other hand they also feel indebted to Xiao Mo Ge. So they probably feel it would be rude to start complaining right away about the lost of the invaluable mo stele…And Ge just might disappear before they get to do so 😀
Like #Theekprimo mentioned, the black yao is also the one with the eidetic memory, so, its possible he memorized it instead of swapping. We just have to wait for it to be reveal in the upcoming chapters.
Thanks for the new chapter!
Wow great novel became trash the moment the Mo let the Kun Lun go this novel wil officially become trash
Thank you for the chapter!
Feels really dumb that they just let Lin Qian get away
thanks for the chapter!
Thanks!
he wouldn’t have been unable to survive.
->
he wouldn’t have been able to survive.
or
he would have been unable to survive.
Shh! Wyhcwe secretly pointed out the plot armor!
😜
Ooops 😀
Thanks for the chapter.
Now its time for Ge’s followers to share the limelight.
“This was unexpected to him. He suddenly found that there were too many unexpected occurrences today. The group of people emerging from the pile of rubble was unexpected, the two women who cultivated shen power were unexpected.
Almost everything unexpected was related to Xiao Mo Ge.”
—
“From the moment Xiao Mo Ge had appeared in Great Peace City, a string of impossible events had continued to occur. The worldly apparition Shifting Star Stands, surpassing Qi Diao Yu’s record, defeating Shen Yu who had comprehended the [Peacock King Plume], causing the Great Peace Treasure Pavilion to appear, and now subduing the Anti Dragon Claw and blocking that stunning blow.”
– Oooooh, both Lin Qian and mo are learning! I’m sooo prouddddd of them 😀 Expect the unexpected and impossible things turning into reality. A little correction though, Lin Qian. It is not that “almost” everything unexpected was related to Xiao Mo Ge” it is just that “everything” unexpected is related to him.
it’s so much fun to watch reality turn upside down around Zou Mo.
I mean he is simply a avatar of change in this story.
“Xiao Mo Ge seemed like a freak and there seemed to be a group of freaks around him.”
– Yep, yep. Ge is the Big Boss of Cirque du Freak, Lil’Miss is the ring leader, Wei Sheng is the security guard and others are the acts… If you saw the show, be ready to payyyyy.
‘No wonder he felt murderousness towards the other, was this a fated enemy? — He looked at Zuo Mo and suddenly said in a loud voice, “This one is the first seated disciple of Kun Lun, Lin Qian. Xiao Mo Ge, if you and I ever meet, let us fight again!”’
– Next time they meet:
Lin Qian:”Muahahahah… So we were fated to meet again, my archenemy! Be prepared! I won’t be defeated this time!”
Zuo Mo:”…” *blank stare*
Zuo Mo:”Um. Who are you again?”
*Lin Qian sheds a sad little tear*
“Pew, the stone stele behind Zuo Mo turned to powder.”
– I knew it! I simply knew it! Either it is Zuo Mo’s property or it will get destroyed. Mufufu.
Has lil miss and his group finally arrived, im pretty sure they will arrive soon if it isent them. And the black yao was probably able to read the stone stele and memorise it, before it got destroyed, since he is the most intellegent of them and he went after the stone stele when Lin Qian attacked them.
Yeah you are right with his eidetic memory it is possible or that he might have swapped it with a fake one.
It can be, if he has some storage item, with much space in it.
I think lil miss is not the one arriving right now because I remember that the mo(the one who attacks the man who Zuo Mo cons of a lot of whatchacallit currency of the mo).
Still, Zuo Mo is not Zuo Mo if he did not somehow copy the content of the black stele. With his greedy nature, in sure he will not bypass this opportunity to completely own 3 treasures.
ZM himself had no chance of getting to the stele, since he was occupied by the treads and huge mo weapon. And i dont think its the green something group thats arriving, since ZM shouts the name of one of his followers, i just dont remember which one it is. I think its the leader of A Wens battalion.
Shu Long is the name you’re looking for.
Time for the guard camp to guard.
Thank you for the chapter!
he just walks away like that?
the power ranking is a bit off. Zuo Mo is general level, Lin Qian is yuanying right? general level = yuanying ??? and that 3 old guard is stronger than zuo mo near marshal level/peak general.
this arc battle very bad battle scene *disappointed*
If my memory it’s not wrong, Zuo Mo already stated that he is near the yuanying level, I think is just after his right hand whirpool cultivation arc.
General equals yuanying.
OMG! So many unexpected situations happening in each chapters right now.
And why the hell the mo did not stop the kun lun disciples =.= dont tell me the three guards of the princesses can’t kill a wounded and swordless xiu zhe? I wonder if there are really a deep hatred between yaomo and xiu zhe cause they didnt take advantage of the situation. If you kill Lin Qian right now, then you just uprooted a big problem in the future. They must learn from Zuo Mo, taking advantages in every situations without him knowing it.
Anyway, thanks for the chaaaaapter!!
Go back and read sirkulinski comment.
He isn’t alone. They may have killed a lot of the xiuzhe, but Kun Lun still has 7 of their 20 people at least. The strongest ones too, that were able to fight without their swords.
Meatbun Delivery~
Thank you for the chapter ( ●w●)
*bloopers : Lin Qian’s past*
Lin Qian: “Take my ultimate mega destroying super secret killing move! HA!”
Instructor 1: “Ack! Nooooooooo!(psst.. how long are we payed to babysit the boss’s kid?)”
Instructor 2: *spurts some fake blood* “Young master’s skill is too much for us to handle.. as expected of young master..(shhh! There’s still an hour left, but if we fake our injury i think we can end it sooner)
Instructor 1: (good idea!) *spurts some fake blood* “..Gufuu! Ack! My cultivation foundation! It’s becoming unstable! Aaaaaah! …” *pretends to faint*
Instructor 2: “… ..as expected of young master. Let me take care of [instructor 1].”
Instructor 1: (too much?)
Instructor 2: (yeah. But since it worked, let’s get a drink~)
*both instructor leaves*
*later that day*
Janitor: “what the heck are those two shody instructor teaching?! How come there’s so much blood from practicing with a blunt wooden sword?! Even gutting a pig wont give this much blood..”
Mufufufu :>
Mufufufu he plays around only to get stoped by a dragon claw.
wait…. not bad though he was able to survive a encounter with Zou Mo in Mo territory.
What the hell, I was expecting the chapter to end with Zuo Mo saying like “who let you leave?” or something. Wtf why did that not happen. Seriously, that’s legit out of character right there, Ge is not forgiving, or some bullshit anime protagonist who wants to fight strong people.
Well Zuo Mo barely has the strength left to stand so . . . not continuing the fight seems like a good deal. I don’t know anyone that would pick a fight to the death when they’re already about to collapse.
And since Lin Qian is willing to leave somewhat peacefully, did not really get to harm ZM’s dear followers and has none of the treasures…Zuo Mo is willing to let it slide, this time.
Shhh! That’s Lin Qian’s one-time “get out of jail” card he got from a secret jie realm called “monopoly”. It’s a super rare card that is only two of a kind.
..wait it is only two right? *checks out the super secret life saving treasure guide book that got sold for 5 second grade
Jingshi*
Inside “the super secret life saving treasure guide book”-factory:
Sleezy super secret black market salesman guy:”Hey kids, are the pictures ready for the new guide book? And are the cards ready? Do you need more paper? Are the colouring pens still ok?”
KIds:”Yeeeeeeeeeeees. When can we do something else? This is boring.”
Kid1:”I want to play PS games. Analog games are stupid…”
SSSBMSG:”Do this right now and you get candy later…”
Kids:”Give us candy now and we draw the pictures faster.”
SSSBMSG:”Who are you to negotiate with me?!”
Kid2:”You need us, we don’t need you.”
Kid3:”Right! Those stick figures of yours don’t fool anyone. Lol.”
SSSBMSG:”Liar! I’m a real artist! A REAL ARTIST! I’m just misunderstood and unappreciated!” T_T
Kids:”Yeah, yeah. Keep telling yourself that and get us the candy.”
I think that sleazy salesman is the current head of resources back on Turtle Island and the kid is the leader of one of the high level Jindian of turtle island.
you know the black market salesman that they recruited back in little mountain jie and the highest power soldier that they had there. (names not my strong suit)
Thanks for the chapter.
Battalion battle:
Green Yaksha + unknown
VERSUS
Great Peace City + Hardship Guard Battalion.
Why wouldn’t they dare to stop him? He’s obviously spent and leaving him alive will just bring calamity down on them later.
I wonder if the black smoke yao swapped steles 😉
“he wouldn’t have been unable to survive” double negative
Hello,
I’m writing because I’m at my wit’s end. And what’s tormenting me is the…
“Anti-dragon” phrase…
That’s too anti-climatic, like anti anti. When I read anti-dragon I imagine an epic battle between a hero and a dragon, and then at the climax our hero pulls out the legendary anti-dragon spray and kills the dragon like a cockroach. THAT ANTI-CLIMATIC.
Here are some suitable climatic names that I came up with:
Dragon’s Bane (oldschool)
Dragon’s Nemesis
Dragon’s Woe
and the ubiquitous, totally overused Dragon Slayer
Whenever I encounter “anti-dragon” phrase I go out and ruthlessly massacre a little innocent kitty. So please Lord Wyhcwe have mercy on Kittens.
The thing is that it isn’t the dragon’s bane … … exactly. It isn’t supposed to mean that the weapon is “a bane” against the dragon. It is literally the claw of a “dragon who was evil/rebellious”
I see, well I guess that Anti-Dragon threw me off.
In that case I have few more that you can take into consideration.
If it’s more rebellious:
Chaotic Dragon (unruly and slightly evil)
Renegade Dragon (more rebellious)
On Evil Side we have:
Evil Dragon (yeah, too obvious, too lame, I think so too)
Abyssal Dragon (evil, and it would also show claw’s enormity)
Abyssmal Dragon (same)
Dark Dragon
As for other baddie dragons I have:
Corrupted Dragon
Merciless Dragon
Ruthless Dragon
Demonic Dragon (mo!)
Wrathful Dragon
Devilish Dragon
That’s all that comes to my mind atm,
Anyway, the decision is ultimately yours Lord Wyhcwe.
So are dates of the kittens.
XD
On the serious note, in my opinion the word ‘anti’ is simply too modern for it to fit any fantasy novel, it belongs to sci-fi ones.
And beside the Anti Dragon phrase makes me immediately link it to Dragon’s Bane (at least to me) which I guess it’s unintended.
Lord Emer
P.S. Now off to find some kittens muwahahahahahah
NUUUuuu…not the kitties!!!😨😭😿
Thanks for the chapter,
Are they just allowing them to walk away?
Thanks for the chapter WYHCWE, WanderingGummofDoom, and Anon! Looks like Zuo Mo is about to get even more mysterious in the eyes of the Mo.
.＿∧_∧＿_ THANKS FOR THE CHAPTER!!

No haha. This comment pattern is short XD
much thanks for the chapter!
I bet that Old Black took the original steele and put a false one there
Thanks for the chapter!
Lin Qian and Zuo Mo, fated to be rivals since the moment they met
