#90 - Chapter 90: The Wolf King, the Sword of Destiny

Ten years ago, his cultivation was only at the third level of Core Formation. That night, when Qiu Yue snatched the treasure of Ni Chang, he didn't dare to get too close, only daring to hide his aura and observe secretly from the side.

Ten years later, now at the ninth level of Golden Core, he was confident that he could overturn the entire game of Qingzhou!

"A rainy night is the perfect time for murder!"

【After arriving in Qingzhou, you set off from Qingli County towards Blackwater County with monstrous killing intent.】

【In the previous simulations, you knew that during this period, Blackwater Market had suffered several devastating attacks from the Demonic Path.】

【However, in the previous simulations during this period, you were just a weak cultivator and had no way to relieve the siege of Blackwater Market.】

【But now you can!】

【Through repeated simulations, repeated trial and error, and repeated cultivation, a total of six life deaths were finally exchanged for the cultivation of the ninth level of Golden Core.】

【This cultivation is very heavy, so heavy that you can change the ending and fate of countless people.】

"Let's start with Blackwater Market in Blackwater County. That's where everything begins. I will start there and kill my way through Qingzhou!"

The roaring rainy night. A young cultivator in green robes. Flying rapidly with monstrous killing intent, he carried a blood-colored saber on his back, and behind the saber was a faint phantom of a giant Heavenly Wolf Emperor.

This was the Heavenly Wolf Seven Kill Saber, rumored to be a high-grade Dao artifact refined by the Heavenly Wolf Demon Emperor of the ancient era.

It is said that the Heavenly Wolf Seven Kill Saber was only a sliver away from being refined into a supreme-grade Dao artifact by the Heavenly Wolf Demon Emperor!

But unfortunately, it seemed to be a trick of fate. Refining the Seven Kill Saber required forty-nine days of refining.

During the most critical moment of the forty-ninth day.

At the moment when the Seven Kill Saber could be refined into a supreme-grade Dao artifact with just one day left!

The Heavenly Wolf Demon Emperor was actually found by his enemies and besieged to death.

Because of the one-day difference, the Heavenly Wolf Seven Kill Saber failed to transform into a supreme-grade Dao artifact.

For thousands of years since then, the Heavenly Wolf Seven Kill Saber has passed through the hands of many people and is also known as the Saber of Fate.

Because the person who holds it seems to be cursed by fate, no matter what they do, they are always just one step away.

Just like how the Heavenly Wolf Demon Emperor at the time was only one day away from refining the Seven Kill Saber into a supreme-grade Dao artifact.

"I never believe in fate. If fate is predetermined, I will cut it with a sword, shatter it with a saber, and pierce it with a spear!" Lin Changqing muttered to himself, and the Heavenly Wolf Seven Kill Saber behind him emitted a soft hum, as if echoing him.

In the first simulation, Lin Changqing remembered that he was the captain of Blackwater Market at the time, a small cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining. Many of his old subordinates who had followed him for many years died in the Demonic Path's repeated sieges of Blackwater Market.

In the ending of the first simulation, all of his old subordinates died in Jianqiu City.

He still remembered those people's names, Li Er, Er Hei.

Especially Er Hei, on the day before Jianqiu City was breached and he died, this person happily requested that his old captain take his son as a disciple.

Unfortunately, with the fall of Jianqiu City, he died, and so did he.

Lin Changqing was a little dazed. He seemed to see an old cultivator in green robes at the ninth level of Qi Refining on the bronze city wall, carrying monstrous anger, rushing towards the black fire with his sword like a moth to a flame.

"On this rainy night, I will change the fate of many people!"

In the roaring thunder and rain, a young cultivator in green robes, carrying monstrous killing intent and a blood-colored saber, flew rapidly towards Blackwater County.

【Because you are at the ninth level of Golden Core, your cultivation is much stronger than before. In addition, you used the Kunpeng Heavenly Technique. Back then, it took you five days to travel from Blackwater County to Qingli County.】

【Now, it only took you less than a day to arrive in Blackwater County.】

【Upon arriving in Blackwater County, you went straight to Blackwater Market.】

【At this moment, Blackwater Market is still being besieged by the Demonic Path. The leader is a Demonic Path True Person at the fifth level of Core Formation, along with three Demonic Cultivator subordinates at the fourth level of Core Formation.】

【Blackwater Market only has three Core Formation True Persons. Although Ni Chang is at the peak of the sixth level of Core Formation, she is only equivalent to the fifth level due to serious injuries. Wu Bai and another True Person are only at the third level of Core Formation, so the overall strength is inferior to the Demonic Path.】

【Blackwater Market is resisting quite difficultly, and the situation is not optimistic.】

"City Lord, the Demonic Path's siege has intensified today. Many people in our market have died, and even several young Foundation Establishment cultivator geniuses have died. Once they break through the market's protective array one day, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"It doesn't matter. The protective array of our market is the Sea Race protective formation that I personally arranged. They can't break in."

Inside the City Lord's Mansion, Fairy Ni Chang sat in the main seat, and True Person Wu Bai sat below. He spoke to Fairy Ni Chang with a solemn expression, expressing his concerns.

Although Fairy Ni Chang said it didn't matter on the surface, she was actually very pessimistic in her heart.

If they can withstand this time, what about the next few times?

Fairy Ni Chang felt uneasy. Now the Righteous Path is retreating steadily in Blackwater County, and perhaps it will completely fall within twenty years at most.

Thinking of this, Fairy Ni Chang sighed in her heart.

She wanted to ask for help, but she didn't know who to ask for help from. Not to mention Blackwater County, the Righteous Path is now retreating steadily throughout Qingzhou.

Who can she ask for help from?

……

【Compared to the pessimistic atmosphere in the Blackwater Market City Lord's Mansion, the Demonic Path camp outside Blackwater Market was filled with loud laughter.】

In the headquarters of the Demonic Path camp, True Person Seven Fiends at the fifth level of Core Formation sat in the main seat. He had a scar on his bald face, making him look extremely fierce.

Sitting on his left and right were three Demonic Cultivators at the fourth level of Core Formation.

"Fellow Daoist Seven Fiends, the battles these past few days have been really enjoyable. This old man's Thousand Ghost Cloth has collected tens of thousands of good-quality male and female living souls in just these few days." A red-robed Demonic Cultivator held a black skull cloth in his palm. He was called Thousand Ghost Daoist, and he said with a big laugh and smugness.

These past few days have been very comfortable for Thousand Ghost Daoist. The Demonic Path camp besieged Blackwater Market, and the surrounding mortal cities protected by Blackwater Market naturally suffered.

These past few days, he has been wantonly slaughtering, selecting male and female living souls born at the Yang hour on the Yang day, and he has collected them all in a few days.

He felt that these days were so enjoyable!

True Person Seven Fiends nodded with a hearty laugh: "Is that all it takes to be happy? Our Demonic Path's good days are yet to come!"

"Elder Mo Batian's direct grandson has achieved Nine-Pattern Golden Core. In the future, our Demonic Path will surely unify Qingzhou. When that time comes, not to mention the several cities around Blackwater Market, wouldn't the entire Qingzhou be at the mercy of our Demonic Path!?"

【True Person Seven Fiends and Thousand Ghost Daoist were very proud and laughed heartily. After a while, they issued an order to attack the market again and personally led the team!】

【Blackwater Market suffered another attack from the Demonic Path, and Fairy Ni Chang and True Person Wu Bai led the battle to meet them.】

【Because the Demonic Path has more Core Formation True Persons, True Person Seven Fiends, Thousand Ghost, and another Demonic Cultivator at the fourth level of Core Formation besieged Fairy Ni Chang together, while Wu Bai and another Righteous Path Core Formation were held back by another Demonic Cultivator at the fourth level of Core Formation.】

【An hour later, the battle between the two sides ended. Fairy Ni Chang was stained with blood and suffered serious injuries. Wu Bai and another Righteous Path Core Formation also had many injuries. On the other side, Seven Fiends and Thousand Ghost relied on their numerical advantage and did not suffer any injuries.】

【It can be said that in the battle at the Core Formation level, Blackwater Market failed this time. In addition, the killing of Foundation Establishment Qi Refining cultivators also resulted in more casualties for Blackwater Market.】

【True Person Seven Fiends and Thousand Ghost Daoist were very satisfied with another victory and issued an order to retreat.】

【True Person Seven Fiends is not in a hurry to destroy Blackwater Market or kill Fairy Ni Chang. That's not realistic. Fairy Ni Chang is, after all, at the sixth level of Core Formation. If he pushes her too hard, he won't be able to withstand her self-destruction.】

【True Person Seven Fiends is very satisfied with the current situation. Grinding it down little by little, letting Blackwater Market lose day by day. One day, Blackwater Market will be breached by him.】

【He can afford to grind this war. At worst, he'll grind it for twenty years. The more he grinds, the greater the advantage of his Demonic Path. In short, the advantage is on my side, and time is on my side!】

【The triumphant Demonic Path cultivators retreated triumphantly, and the Blackwater Market cultivators were dejected. Both sides were about to retreat from the battlefield where they had fought, and it was at this moment that you arrived at the battlefield of the two sides!】
