Chapter 1356: Come at Me!
Ning Shu stored the axe inside her dantian. As soon as it entered, the coiling dragon in her dantian coiled itself around the axe handle like it had found the perfect place to rest.
The axe resisted it very much, but the spiritual energy bound itself to the handle of the axe tightly. The axe was also helpless against it.
“What’s this axe called?” asked Ning Shu.
Qing Yue said, “It doesn’t have a name yet. You can give it one.”
Ning Shu thought it over and said, “Pangu’s sky splitting axe. Isn’t that super assertive?”
As soon as she said that, the axe in her dantian moved.
Qing Yue nodded. “Up to you.”
Ning Shu was very happy since she had received a treasure.
“Just now, there was a divine artifact undergoing a tribulation.” Quite a few cultivators rushed towards them.
A divine artifact that had passed through the heavenly tribulations would attract many experts. After all, it was a divine artifact. A single divine artifact could raise an entire sect up into power.
Every cultivation sect had a guardian divine artifact, which was a source of confidence for them and a deterrence against others.
If one could gain a divine artifact, their strength would increase by leaps and bounds.
Countless years had passed since the last time someone refined a divine artifact on Azure Waters Continent.
In moments, Qing Yue’s courtyard became surrounded by flocks of experts floating in the sky, with many others still rushing over.
The commotion created by the divine artifact as it weathered the tribulations was too large.
All of the cultivators scrutinized Ning Shu and Qing Yue.
“Have you two seen a divine artifact?” asked a white-haired old man. “I saw an axe flying this way a while ago.”
Ning Shu: →_→
They said it as if the axe was theirs.
“Yes, it flew towards there.” Ning Shu pointed to the side.
The old man’s expression immediately became stern. “Hand over the divine axe.”
Ning Shu spat. “Why should I?”
When she looked at these people, she felt eager to fight. She had long wanted to test the level of her own strength. After she got the sky splitting axe, she also wanted to test just how powerful this axe was.
More and more cultivators rushed over, forming an impenetrable circle around the courtyard. With this many people, if each person spat just once, they could easily drown Ning Shu and Qing Yue in a torrent of spit.
Qing Yue had an unconcerned expression on his face. Even when facing this many people, there wasn’t the slightest fluctuation in his heart.
“If you guys call the divine axe out, we’ll spare your lives.” A man with a powerful aura stepped forward. “Who refined the divine axe?”
Ning Shu patted her chest. “Me.”
The man ignored Ning Shu and fixed his gaze on Qing Yue. “Were you the one who refined the divine axe? You can come to my Divine Wind Sect. We won’t let you suffer the slightest harm.”
Qing Yue asked Ning Shu, “Should we go or should we beat them up?”
“Beat them up. Let’s let the sky splitting axe open up the path.” Ning Shu was eager for some action. Hiding wasn’t a solution, cultivators should follow their hearts. As they crawled their way up and pursued the Heavenly Dao, they would meet countless setbacks and difficulties.
“Watch me first. In a bit, if I can’t beat them, then you come help me,” Ning Shu told Qing Yue.
Qing Yue looked at Ning Shu silently. “You can’t even get rid of this small number of people?”
“This many people counts as a small number?” Ning Shu shot him a sidelong glance.
“A long, long time ago, someone said that if they gained me, they would be able to break through the void and ascend to immortality. However, I haven’t even been able to break through the void myself. I’m still restricted under the Heavenly Dao,” said Qing Yue insipidly.
Ning Shu looked at Qing Yue with a bitter expression of sympathy. “Actually, this is all because of your green hair. Green hair is too eye-catching.”
As soon as they saw Qing Yue’s hair color, most people would think that he was a demonic beast. Demonic beasts had low intelligence, so very few of them could gain a human form.
So it was no surprise that Qing Yue seemed very unique. If they didn’t go after him, then who would they go after? They might even be able to gain a lot after eating his meat, like Tang Sanzang’s meat.
Ning Shu summoned the sky splitting axe to her hands with a thought. The axe jingled as she held it, emitting a clear sound.
She shouted loudly, “The axe is in my hands. If you guys have the ability, come take it from me!”
