Chapter 89

"Let's go!"

Jiang Wei's emotions did not waver in the slightest.

Perhaps it was because he had already died once, Jiang Wei's personality had become very cold—至少对外人是如此的。

"Ah Wei, forcing Lu Yunkuang to his death, won't that cause any trouble?" Li Hao said with no small amount of worry.

"What's there to be afraid of?" Jiang Wei said disdainfully.

From the day he joined the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion, Jiang Wei knew that his status in the pavilion was different from that of other disciples. Lu Yunkuang, despite his seemingly boundless glory, was just an ordinary disciple of the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion, not even reaching the Soul Condensation stage. How could his status compare to Jiang Wei's?

"Moreover, the main person behind this incident is still to come..." Jiang Wei had no intention of stopping here.

...

After returning to the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion, Jiang Wei did not rush to take revenge on Fang Siqi. After all, Fang Siqi's status in the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion was far from that of Lu Yunkuang; and since Fang Siqi was currently within the pavilion, if Jiang Wei were to kill him without any evidence, the consequences would be severe.

Although Jiang Wei was angry, he had not lost his reason; upon returning to the Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion, he immediately sought out his master, Elder Bai.

"Master, I just forced Lu Yunkuang to his death!" Jiang Wei said straightforwardly.

"What!?" Elder Bai was taken aback, not expecting his obedient disciple to bring him such news upon his return, "Did you make him soul scatter?"

"No," Jiang Wei said, "I forced him to reincarnate!" As he spoke, Jiang Wei recounted the entire sequence of events in detail.

Elder Bai sighed in relief after hearing this: "That's better... Alright, I'll help you suppress this matter, but try not to let it happen again!"

"Um..." Jiang Wei thought for a moment and honestly said, "Master, you already know that the mastermind behind this is Fang Siqi..." The meaning behind Jiang Wei's words was clear.

"Don't act rashly!" Elder Bai said repeatedly, "Lu Yunkuang had no significant background; his death is just that. As long as I suppress it a bit, the matter will pass. But Fang Siqi has a background; if you kill him, even I will find it difficult to protect you!"

Jiang Wei's actions, to put it bluntly, were already considered fratricide; even if Jiang Wei was the one who was bullied first and had a "righteous" reason, he still should not have done it.

However, Elder Bai was not a pushover. He said this not to persuade Jiang Wei to lay down his weapons, but to help Jiang Wei think of other methods.

"Right!" Elder Bai's eyes suddenly lit up, "In a few days, there will be a martial arts competition within the sect; why don't you take the opportunity during the competition..."

Jiang Wei's eyes also lit up: "Go all out?"

"Hehe!" Elder Bai smiled without speaking. After a moment, he became worried again: "With your realm, winning over Fang Siqi in the martial arts competition is not difficult. However, if you want to take the opportunity to go all out, you must ensure a one-hit kill; otherwise, the elders within the pavilion will not allow you to act recklessly! But if you can achieve a one-hit kill, you can always claim that the situation was urgent and you couldn't control your actions. The elders will have no choice but to blame Fang Siqi for his lack of skill—The question is, do you have the strength to do it?"

In the entire Heavenly Wasteland Pavilion, the only one who might incite a disciple to kill a fellow disciple was probably Elder Bai; but this did not mean that Elder Bai was particularly evil or malicious. Rather, Elder Bai was very straightforward—他对待自己人，拼了命也要照顾好；至于其他人，无论是同门还是什么，都视如草芥。

Clearly, Elder Bai considered Jiang Wei as one of his own, but did not consider Fang Siqi as such.

"Instantly kill Fang Siqi..." Jiang Wei thought for a moment and finally shook his head, "Very difficult!"

Fang Siqi's strength was far superior to Lu Yunkuang's; after all, the title of "eldest disciple" required absolute strength.

But even so, Jiang Wei only felt that instantly killing Lu Yunkuang was difficult, but not impossible!

"Perhaps, after mastering the 'Flowing Water Sword Manual,' there might be some hope..." Jiang Wei thought to himself. He had to admit that the power of the 'Flowing Water Sword Manual' was much stronger than the spear techniques he had come up with on his own; however, the issue that troubled Jiang Wei was that if he changed to the 'Flowing Water Sword Manual,' he would have to switch his weapon.

"Right, I can ask my master!" Jiang Wei suddenly remembered; wasn't a master there to be consulted?

"Master!" Jiang Wei said, "During my time in the Dao Seeking Mountain, I stumbled upon a set of sword techniques!"

"Sword techniques?" Elder Bai pondered, "I originally planned to teach you such skill-based techniques after you reached the Soul Condensation stage; but if you want to learn now, it's fine too!" In Elder Bai's view, the strength of the soul was the foundation, and sword techniques or spear techniques were built upon this foundation; if the foundation was weak, even the most powerful sword technique would be useless, as others could easily kill you with a single strike, leaving no chance to use the technique.

As for the sword techniques Jiang Wei mentioned, Elder Bai was even more dismissive—what could be found in the Dao Seeking Mountain? Even if a set of sword techniques appeared, how good could it be?

What Elder Bai did not know was that Jiang Wei's sword techniques were passed down from an Immortal Ghost King. If he knew, he would not be so calm.

And Jiang Wei, of course, would not casually reveal the impressive origin of his sword techniques to Elder Bai. After all, Jiang Wei's current strength was still weak; if the secret of the Ghost Realm of Kongli were to leak, he would not have enough lives to survive!

"Master, I originally planned to use a long spear as my weapon. If I switch to a sword now, wouldn't that be bad..." Jiang Wei expressed his concerns.

"Bad? How could it be bad?" Elder Bai countered, "Learning sword techniques and spear techniques do not conflict with each other!"

"Conflict?" Jiang Wei was puzzled.

"It seems you still have a lot to learn since you first arrived in the Ghost Realm!" Elder Bai smiled, "You are still at the Divine Meeting stage and do not understand! In fact, many Soul Condensation stage ghosts are proficient in several types of weapons!"

Jiang Wei was even more puzzled: "Why don't they spend their time mastering one weapon instead of dividing their attention to learn several weapons?"

"Because..." Elder Bai smiled mysteriously, "At the Soul Condensation stage, ghosts can learn a skill called 'Three Heads and Six Arms'!"

"Three Heads and Six Arms!?" Jiang Wei was surprised.

Jiang Wei had heard of the 'Three Heads and Six Arms' long ago in the human world; however, the cultivation system in the human world was different from that in the Ghost Realm. In the human world, those who could cultivate the 'Three Heads and Six Arms' were far stronger than Soul Condensation stage ghosts—those powerful beings were naturally beyond Jiang Wei's reach.

Therefore, for Jiang Wei, the 'Three Heads and Six Arms' had always been a distant legend.

"That's right, the 'Three Heads and Six Arms'!" Elder Bai said, "Think about it, after mastering the 'Three Heads and Six Arms,' you will have six arms; at that time, would you hold a sword in all six arms? Or a spear? Of course, you can hold multiple weapons!—Various weapons can be used in combination, complementing each other's strengths and weaknesses, greatly enhancing your combat power!"

Jiang Wei was stunned: "Is that possible!?"

But Jiang Wei thought about it and realized that if he had six arms, he definitely should not hold three long spears; otherwise, the three spears would obstruct each other, likely reducing his combat power.
