Therefore, he looked at Shen Ping. “What do you think?”

The Sword Master also looked at Shen Ping. Shen Ping pondered for a moment and said, “I thought that there was no need to pay attention to the Heavenly Sound Temple. I would first go to the Monarch Mountain and obtain the general outline inside. Then, I could cultivate the supreme sword technique. It would not be too late to discuss how to deal with the Heavenly Sound Temple after I have mastered it!”

The Cliffmaster smiled and said, “What the Marquis of Zhenbei said is a wise plan.”

The Sword Master snorted in his heart. Shen Ping and the Cliffmaster had both agreed to go to Monarch Mountain first. He could not refute them. Moreover, Monarch Mountain was very likely to be the general outline of the Sword Dao. It was very important.

“Since the two of you have just arrived, why don’t you rest in my Sea Moon Cliff for two days? After resting and recuperating, you can go to Monarch Mountain. You also know that Emperor Yu of Monarch Mountain has always regarded us four top factions as thorns in his flesh. If you want to go to Monarch Mountain this time, you have to prepare well.”

“Sure.”

The Sword Master had no objections. Monarch Mountain had long wanted to eliminate the four top factions. After all, the influence of the four top factions in the Underworld was too great, especially Seeping River Academy. It was the holy land of the Sword Dao in the world, a place where countless swordsmen yearned for. However, the Yuhua Shen Dynasty’s decree couldn’t control the four top factions at all. This was the source of chaos, the root of chaos.

It was a pity that the four top factions had deep foundations and were not something Monarch Mountain could eradicate. Even if Emperor Yu had been planning for generations, the results were minimal.

Unless he could get rid of an Immortal expert.

It was already difficult to deal with just one Marquis of Zhenbei as he had to rely on another faction to do it, let alone the four top factions that were stronger and had Immortals.

In fact, if not for the fact that the diagram of Monarch Mountain might be very important, the Sword Master would not have wanted to become enemies with the Heavenly Sound Temple. Those old bald donkeys were all very powerful. Moreover, the monks in the temple were very united and could not defeat them one by one.

That night, Shen Ping and the Sword Master stayed at the Sea Moon Cliff.

Compared to the Sword Whisper Tower and the Seeping River Academy, the Sea Moon Cliff was relatively mysterious. They did not have many disciples, but all of them had extraordinary strength. Among them, male disciples were the majority. Although there were also female disciples, they were not like the Sword Whisper Tower, where female disciples made up the majority.

Shen Ping sometimes thought that the Sword Master really knew how to enjoy himself. Most of the disciples he recruited were women, especially the Sword Son and Sword Seed. Not only were they strong and talented, but they also had good looks.

Fortunately, the Sword Whisper Tower practiced the Heartless Sword Dao. The Sword Master only treated those women as tools.

“Marquis of Zhenbei, my Sea Moon Cliff also has disciples who look like fairies. If you want to marry them, as long as they are willing, you can take them away. You don’t have to become my Sea Moon Cliff’s disciple.”

Late at night, Cliffmaster Chou looked for Shen Ping and tried to rope him in. After all, Shen Ping was probably the only one in history who could understand the contents of the Mountain and River Diagram. It could be seen how terrifying his talent and comprehension were. In time, after breaking through to the Immortal Realm, he would definitely become an expert among the Immortal Realm!

He might even break through to the Longevity Realm. Once he broke through to the ninth realm, his lifespan would greatly increase, and he could enjoy tens of thousands of years of cold and heat. At that time, Sea Moon Cliff would no longer have to worry about the issue of life and death inheritance.

“I appreciate the Cliffmaster’s kind intentions. I already have Sword Saint Taixuan in my family, so I don’t have the intention of taking a concubine for the time being.” Shen Ping rejected him. For him, one Sword Saint Taixuan was enough. As long as he kept gaining insights into the Sword Dao, it would be fine. If she had a special physique, he would naturally accept it. If not, he really wasn’t interested.

The Cliffmaster didn’t mind. On the second day, he invited Shen Ping to walk around the Sea Moon Cliff a few times. “Back then, your mother came here to pick the Sea Moon Lotus. This is a divine medicine that can remold ordinary people. Your mother was indeed not bad and finally obtained it.”

He handed the three Sea Moon Lotuses to Shen Ping. “This divine medicine is not too precious. It just takes some time to grow. I’ll give these three to the Marquis of Zhenbei as a favor for imparting the sword technique.”

Shen Ping happily accepted it. He knew that this Sea Moon Lotus was definitely precious. The other party said to rope him in, or rather, form a good relationship.

They rested for two days before the three of them set off for Monarch Mountain.

Monarch Mountain was not in the Imperial Capital, nor was it near the Imperial Capital. Instead, it was on the coast of the East Sea. This is the royal family’s ancestral land. Many outstanding juniors of the royal family would be nurtured here. Typically, Emperor Yu would often come here because the Monarch Mountain had a special environment that could allow people to grow faster. Even immortals would feel comfortable inside.

As for politics, there was no need for Emperor Yu to preside over it. Only when there were major matters would Emperor Yu make a decision.

The Sword Master and the Cliffmaster were both experts in the Immortal Realm. Before they reached the vicinity of Monarch Mountain, Emperor Yu had sensed them. Shen Ping’s true soul power swept across, although the Monarch Mountain was blocked, the entire mountain could still be seen at a glance.

“As expected, there are hidden Immortal Realm cultivators in Monarch Mountain. One, two, three… They’re really strong. However, in terms of strength, these three are inferior to Vice Palace Master Yan of Seeping River Academy.”

Long before, the Sword Master had come to Monarch Mountain and talked to Emperor Yu about the Diagrams of Mountains and Rivers. So after the three of them came, Emperor Yu was not surprised at all. Just like the Cliffmaster, he invited them to the top of the main peak of Monarch Mountain to drink.

The wind howled on both sides of the mountaintop, but it was blocked by a special array at the edge of the mountaintop.

Amidst the toasts, Emperor Yu kept talking about the glorious battle achievements of the former Marquis of Zhenbei. The Sword Master and the Cliffmaster also echoed.

“The Marquis of Zhenbei is indeed an outstanding person of his generation. He has made an unparalleled contribution to our Yuhua Shen Dynasty. The demon kingdom has schemed several times but has not succeeded. He has protected the people of the world from the pain of war. This matter should be made known. Toast!”

Shen Ping’s expression was calm. He knew that this wine could not make the three immortals drunk, even if the wine was specially brewed.

They drank a lot, all the way till sunset. Yet Emperor Yu did not mention the Diagrams of Mountains and Rivers. At night, Shen Ping, the Sword Master, and the Cliffmaster gathered together. “What does Emperor Yu mean? Sword Master, didn’t you negotiate with Emperor Yu back then?”

The Sword Master frowned, “I did, of course. As long as we can comprehend the content, we will pass on the sword technique. But why is Emperor Yu playing a riddle with us now?”

The Cliffmaster did not trust Emperor Yu and reminded him, “Be careful of traps. Also, you and I have to protect the Marquis of Zhenbei. Emperor Yu is best at scheming, although those schemes will be useless in our eyes. Don’t forget Lord Shen!”

The Sword Master’s heart skipped a beat. “Well, we really have to be careful about this.”

The two of them were not Marquis Shen, but Shen Ping was only an Earth Immortal now.

The next day, Emperor Yu continued to drink with the three of them and talked about everything in the world. During this period, the Cliffmaster and the Sword Master mentioned the matter of viewing the Mountain and River Diagrams several times, but Emperor Yu brushed them off.

“What the hell is he up to? I don’t believe that Emperor Yu doesn’t cultivate supreme sword techniques!” the Sword Master gritted his teeth and said.

The Cliffmaster pondered. “Don’t be anxious. We don’t have to be anxious either. Since Emperor Yu wants to stall for time, let’s stall for time. Moreover, we can cultivate other sword techniques first.”

The Sword Master was stunned, “You mean, this is Emperor Yu’s test?”

“That’s right. Emperor Yu has always been good at scheming. He was worried about taking out the painting of the mountains and rivers. Now, he’s just testing our patience. Of course there may be other plans. Whatever they are, we mustn’t panic.”

The Sword Master was enlightened. “What Cliffmaster Chou said makes sense.”

Next, the three of them cultivated their sword techniques at Monarch Mountain. As long as Emperor Yu called them, they would go over to drink and discuss national affairs. However, as long as it involved the four top factions, be it the Sword Master or the Cliffmaster, they would not talk about it.

Half a month later, Emperor Yu then began to talk about the diagrams. “The painting of my Monarch Mountain was obtained by my ancestor from Seeping River Academy after much hardship. The Marquis of Zhenbei can look at it, but I have a condition.”

The Sword Master said, “Emperor Yu, feel free to state your conditions.”

“The Seeping River Academy must give me another diagram!”
