545 Rise Of The General. (2)
The two people attacked behind them, but the attacks were dispersed. The two narrowed their eyes. These attacks may not have been made with their best effort, but it was still substantial enough to shirk off the enemy in the same realm.
The dispersion was so clean that it shocked them. The ethereal voice sounded again, “Sect Master Ling, please calm down.”
Sect Master Ling knew this tone, and he put down his weapon. He bowed and said, “Pardon the offense Senior Tian Long.”
A portal appeared in a blink, and then a man with long silver hair appeared before them. Long Shan also bowed in respect. Tian Long nodded, and the people stood up. He said, “You have done well, Sect Master Ling. He looks stronger than ever.”
Sect Master Ling shook his head and replied, “You flatter me, Senior. It is his effort that he has become this strong.”
Tian Long smiled faintly and said, “Do not tell him about it. He might grow complacent.”
The two elders nodded solemnly. They stood half a step behind Tian Long to watch the progress and found that Shi Lang had condensed his spiritual weapon, and now it looked very surreal.
The clouds above were also filled with thick lightning streaks. Sect Master Ling asked, “Senior, what did you mean by the sentence earlier?”
Tian Long smiled and said, “Shi Lang comes from my world. He is the strongest general there. I wish for him to stand up against the demons and lead an army of humans. If not an army of entire humanity, I would be at peace if he led the Dragon Troops in war and defended the front.”
The two old people were shocked. The Dragon Troop was a group of elites, and every troop was Immortal King. Immortal Sovereigns trained them. They were second to only the Pheonix troop led by the central plane’s big shots as a united front. Even if the difference was too much, none of the high forces dared to look down on Tian Long.
The younger generation of the Immortal Plain had heard stories of the force, and all wished to see them once. In the central plains, there were many such forces. Tian Long sighed and said, “You all know nothing about him. If I told you what he did in the lower realm, you will see the halo he carries there. Forget about me making trouble if anything was to happen to him. Suppose the people were ascending from the same realm in the future found out. They will raze the immortal plane to the ground.”
Long Shan and Sect Master Ling were shocked when the clouds rumbled, and a streak of lightning fell on Shi Lang. The people were surprised, and Long Shan expressed his thoughts, saying, “Why is the lightning falling now? He has not finished condensing his sword yet.”
Tian Long replied, “His physique has been refined, and heaven will not wait for him to finish condensing his spiritual weapon.”
The streak of lighting flashed through the hundred guarding sword array and hit Shi Lang on the forehead. However, the young man was using the Ligthing Shura sutra. He absorbed it, and began to use it to accelerate his progress. Long Shan was shocked but Tian Long and Sect Master Ling were standing akin to marble statues.
They knew this oddity, but Long Shan could not comprehend the situation. Sect Master Ling said, “He is doing it again. The heavenly tribulation will get severe.”
…
Shi Lang absorbed a lot of energy and Raksha said, “Tian Long is here, I want to beat the shit out of him, finish early.”
Shi Lang did not reply, but he began to condense the sword. The more he focused the more the sword shrank in size. The Terran did not rush to condense his weapon forcefully. This would leave him with a flawed foundation. Shi lang never chased after quick results in this life. He always cared for quality.
The second bolt of lightning fell on his head, but again it was absorbed in his body. The physical toughness of his body was at a staggering level.
Tian Long could not help but comment, “To think that there will be someone who would challenge the destructive power of the heavenly lightning with his physical body. What a monster.”
Sect Master Ling and Long Shan nodded behind him. Suddenly, the old man asked, “Senior, you seem to know a great deal about him. Can you tell us something more?”
Tian Long smiled and said, “Well, what to tell about him. He is a renegade, who only joined the forces with the greed for better resources. Gradually he came across the various aspects of the military and began to climb ranks. His skills and efforts made him known through out the lower realm as Ace. The top card of the terran civilization. If he was to say that he is second best in the civilization, none of them will claim the first position.”
The two people were surprised and Tian Long said, “You know why am I so confident in his skills? He will do his best to secure the ascension pavilion in the future.”
Long Shan raised his brows and asked, “Why? That place is just for ascension and it does not have any strategic advantage for him.”
Tian Long shook his head and replied, “It will be for the sake of his people. His wife and daughter are all geniuses. His daughter is someone with a special physique, and she will definitely become a pillar of the human race in the future.”
The two people nodded and gulped when they heard that Shi Lang even fathered a girl who had a special physique. This was as rare as finding a rose without a thorn.

The two thought of a bit and shook their heads. They did not know what it was like to be infected by the demonic energy so how could they know how to get rid of it. Just when they were thinking about it, Tian Long said, “He channeled his sword intent inside his body. Cleaning the entire body for four decades. Imagine the trauma he must have suffered.”
The two people turned pale for a second and Sect Master Ling said, “I cannot imagine something like that.”
Suddenly, a voice sounded, “Xiao Long, stop patronizing me.”
Long Shan and Sect Master Ling were shocked when they heard this voice. They looked at Shi Lang and found him to be standing amidst the sparks of lightning. He looked at Tian Long and said, “What are you doing here?”
Tian Long sensed his veins throbbing, and said, “Dare you to speak in this tone?”
Shi Lang clicked his tongue and took out Raksha from his spirit tattoo. He wanted to say something but the sword already vanished from his side. Long Shan and Sect Master Ling were shocked that Shi Lang even dared to attack a senior like Tian Long. They were about to interrupt when they found their bodies to be frozen in spot.
Shi Lang looked up at the sky and said, “Could you please come at me a bit harder? I am still a bit short of energy.”
The clouds thundered and the lightning shot.
On the other side, Tian Long said, “Unity I can explain to you.”
The sword shined with golden light and the sword spirit materialized before the trio. Raksha scoffed and said, “What will you explain to me? You left me behind and nothing can make up for that. If Shi Lang had not come, if he had not given up his Shura Sword, we would have never made it.”
Tian Long let out a goofy laugh, and Sect Master Ling and Long Shan were shocked. This was a heavenly spirit artifact. This existence could kill them, no wonder they froze under her pressure.
Tian Long said, “You see, I saw the future and decided to leave you behind.”
Raksha spat on the side, completely giving up her image as a lady and said, “I challenge you, fight Shi Lang in terms of sword and if you win I will forgive you. If you lose, you better put away your tricks.”
The clouds thundered and the mountains trembled. Tian Long put up a solemn expression on his face and asked, “Do you think your general can defeat this king?”
Tian Long was a prideful genius, how could he overlook a challenge? He was easy-going but if someone tried to overstep his pride, he would not sit calmly.
Raksha smiled and said, “Without a General the kings do not have the capital to defend their kingdom. Be grateful that I will have you fight right after the breakthrough. If I had let him consolidate his gains, you would have suffered a lot worse.”
