Chapter 604: Liu Qianhuan’s Choice

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Liu Qianhuan had finally safely transcended her tribulation, and all the surrounding onlookers heaved a collective sigh of relief.

A tribulation transcendence with so many twists and turns constantly stimulated their adrenal glands, providing a level of excitement and entertainment that was not inferior to watching a spectacular battle.

As for that final hug, no one really thought much of it.

However, Xu Xiaolan felt a bit weird after witnessing their embrace. She wanted to give An Lin a thorough beating and ask him if that hug felt good!

But she could only suppress the urge to do so after realizing that it was probably not a good look to pummel An Lin in front of all these bystanders.

“An Lin is so awesome! He can even deliver tribulation lightning in the stead of the heavens! Does that mean I would be able to progress to the Soul Formation Initial Stage if An Lin were to use this lightning to blast me?” Su Qianyun blinked her dreamy eyes as her mind drifted away.

Xu Xiaolan replied with an exasperated expression, “That’s obviously not going to work. An Lin has most likely only absorbed the energy from Liu Qianhuan’s tribulation lightning, so the lightning will only work for Liu Qianhuan.”

“You can’t say that for sure. What if his lightning does work on me? You won’t know until you try it!” Su Qianyun argued in a mellow voice.

Xu Xiaolan slapped her hand to her forehead as she heaved a light sigh. If Su Qianyun was determined to be blasted by lightning, then who was she to stop her?

Bai Zhong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with a shaky hand. This trial tribulation had been an arduous process for him to endure. One of the top students within the university had almost just died here…

“Thank God my mistake could be rectified.” Kong Mohan was the most elated person at the scene now that Liu Qianhuan safely transcended her tribulation.

He was in constant fear that his words of encouragement would be directly responsible for the death of a supremely talented Sword Immortal.

Fortunately, An LIn was able to reverse this dire situation and saved Liu Qianhuan’s life.

A relieved smile appeared on Bai Zhong’s face. “What a way to conclude this year’s Immortal Spirit Tower trials…”

His expression suddenly faltered as he spoke.

Wait… conclude my a*s!

The trial was technically still in progress, but everything was in a state of utter turmoil!

Bai Zhong suddenly felt utterly exhausted…

Liu Qianhuan waved her hand at An Lin before flying back to the ninety-first level. “The trial still hasn’t concluded yet, so I’ll see you later!”

Bai Zhong also came to his senses and rallied all the trial takers in an authoritative voice, “All trial takers, please return to your respective levels to continue your trials!”

An Lin turned around to find that Xu Xiaolan had her eyes trained on him as well.

A slight smile appeared on Xu Xiaolan’s face as she offered words of praise in a gentle voice, “Well done!”

“Hehe, did I win you over with my power and reliability?”

An Lin couldn’t help but get carried away upon being praised.

Xu Xiaolan’s chest constricted upon hearing this. Was he really this oblivious?

A cold smile appeared on her face. “Hehe, just wait till we get back!”

“Huh?” Confusion appeared on An Lin’s face as a sense of foreboding welled up in his heart.

“Alright, I’m going back to take my trial.” Xu Xiaolan turned before flying toward level ninety-five atop her Dragon Sparrow Sword.

“Heehee, Classmate An Lin, you have to help out with my tribulation transcendence in the future!” Su Qianyun waved in farewell as a sweet smile appeared on her face.

An Lin was a little dumbstruck, but everyone had already left to take their trials, so he could only follow in their example. Thus, he swallowed a Blood Spirit Pill before flying back toward the ninety-eighth level.

Come to think of it, the divine-intent warrior was taking a very long time just to materialize on that level. He had waited for a long time, but his opponent still hadn’t taken shape, and he was beginning to wonder if the divine-intent warrior had taken shape during the time that he had been away.

On the ninety-first level, Kong Mohan and Liu Qianhuan faced each other while holding their respective swords.

“I apologize. I should not have encouraged you to make you a breakthrough here.” Kong Mohan bowed with an apologetic expression.

Liu Qianhuan replied with a carefree smile, “No, I am the one at fault here… However, I’m quite thankful for the decision that I had made. After all, the end result was good, right?”

This was indeed a very good result for her. After all, she had tried to sever all her emotional ties in this world in order to make a breakthrough, only to find that she was completely unable to do so.

It was exactly due to the arrival of An Lin that she was able to make a breakthrough while keeping everything that was valuable to her. Perhaps her Dao heart would continue to be affected by these emotions in the future, but this was much better than becoming a heartless and emotionless Sword Immortal.

A relieved smile appeared on Kong Mohan’s face as he nodded at the sight of Liu Qianhuan’s carefree smile. “Alright, let’s begin then.”

“Sure.” Liu Qianhuan waved her frosty longsword through the air as a domain of extreme frost appeared around her.

Her entire body appeared as if it were a peerlessly sharp sword as snow and ice swirled in the air around her. The fearsome sharpness imbued within her domain caused the very space around her to tremble as she took a step forward.

Her domain of extreme frost descended upon Kong Mohan, creating a path for her sword even before she had initiated her attack.

Kong Mohan’s pupils contracted, and he forcefully struggled free of the shackles of her domain of extreme frost before slashing a powerful green sword projection toward Liu Qianhuan.

Ding!

A crisp sound akin to two pieces of jade clattering against one another sounded as his green sword projection was sliced in half by a blue afterimage.

So fast!

Kong Mohan immediately unleashed his movement technique as he flew back in retreat at the sight of the figure flashing toward him at an alarming speed. However, he suddenly found that the speed of his retreat became slower and slower as the oncoming figure closed in on him more and more quickly.

Domain of extreme frost!

The frosty sealing power in the air became more potent as Liu Qianhuan drew closer to Kong Mohan.

Whoosh!

A sword projection imbued with the power of extreme frost instantly sliced Kong Mohan’s body in half.

Liu Qianhuan had already appeared behind Kong Mohan, and her blue and pink costume danced lightly as snow and ice fell around her.

Her arms hung down by her sides while the frosty longsword in her hand was reduced to a pool of water. Throughout this whole process, she did not turn back even once to look at Kong Mohan.

“So powerful…” A joyful smile appeared on Kong Mohan’s face as his body began to crumble. He then said, “Prepare yourself. I’m going to impart upon you my Dripping Water Sword Technique!”

A green light fused into Liu Qianhuan’s glabella.

Liu Qianhuan stood still in silence, and her Ancient Sword Dao Physique allowed her to observe the true intent within the Dripping Water Sword Technique in no time. She turned to Kong Mohan before bowing with gratitude in her eyes. “Thank you, Senior.”

A pleased smile appeared on Kong Mohan’s face as he said, “Your talent is exceptional. If I could, I would impart upon you every single one of my techniques.”

His body slowly faded along with his voice before he finally disappeared like a passing breeze.

Bai Zhong appeared again before turning to Liu Qianhuan with sadness in his eyes as he produced a stack of badges. “Congratulations on passing your trial, Liu Qianhuan. You may choose another level now.”

Liu Qianhuan immediately picked up the badge numbered ninety-seven without any hesitation.

Bai Zhong faltered upon seeing this, and he couldn’t help but offer his advice again, “Do you want to reconsider? After all, you’ve only just broken through to the Soul Formation Initial Stage. Even if you’re supremely talented, you still require time to fortify your cultivation base. It will be next to impossible for you to complete the trial on the ninety-seventh level…”

“Heh… that’s what you told me when I chose level ninety-one, old man!” Liu Qianhuan chuckled.

Bai Zhong: “…”

Bai Zhong felt like good intentions had been misconstrued, and he felt quite depressed as a result.

“Fine, fine, fine! Go then! You won’t learn and grow without experiencing failure!” Bai Zhong snapped as he thrust the badge for level ninety-seven toward Liu Qianhuan.

That’s strange, why did those words seem so familiar?

Bai Zhong suddenly felt even more depressed.

A light smile appeared on Liu Qianhuan’s face as she held the badge.

An Lin was on level ninety-eight. All she wanted was to not be left behind by him.

Outside the Immortal Spirit Tower, all the students erupted in cheers. They had just witnessed Liu Qianhuan taking down Kong Mohan in double-quick time. Liu Qianhuan was the only fifth-year representative among the remaining trial takers, so everyone was vouching for her.

“Do you guys think Senior Student Liu will break Senior Student Wang’s record?”

“There’s certainly hope. Senior Student Liu has just progressed to the Soul Formation Stage, and with her exceptional aptitude, there’s a good chance she would be able to pass the trial on the ninety-fourth level!”

“This…”

However, everyone fell silent as they stared up at the screen before exploding into chatter again.

“My God! Senior Student Liu chose level ninety-seven?”

“How long has it been since someone last passed the ninety-seventh level trial? It must be over ten thousand years now!”

“Sigh… her decision was too rash. Wang Xuanzhan was an exceptional talent, but he still fell at the ninety-fourth level. She’s biting off more than she can chew.”

Many of the students were quite excited to see if Senior Student Liu could break the previous record held by Wang Xuanzhan, but their excitements were significantly dampened upon seeing her decision to challenge a level that was almost impossible to overcome.

The Celestial Thearch clicked his tongue in amazement as he surveyed the scene from afar.

“This An Lin is indeed impressive, but he’s attracting a lot of attention from the opposite s*x… I have to tell Xiao Zi to be on her guard and not fall for him…”
