Chapter 1579: Beauty of Simplicity
Translator: CKtalon
Havent you already advanced to the Calamity grade? Why are you still
searching for the Zone Core? Jiuyang had seen Zhou Wens speed before. It was
definitely at the Calamity grade, so he was convinced that Zhou Wen had
already advanced to the Calamity grade.
Zhou Wen didnt answer, nor could he answer. He could be considered a
Calamity-grade, but that was under the condition of simulating other Essence
Energy Arts. He himself hadnt advanced to the Calamity grade.
You havent told me how to distinguish the level of a Zone Core? Zhou Wen
asked.
The Zone Core isnt an inanimate object. Levels are demarcated artificially. To
know what level the Zone Core is, one can only observe the zone itself. The
stronger a dimensional zone is, the stronger the Zone Core condensed. There
are also some other details that need to be observed by yourself. There are no
fixed standards, Jiuyang said.
Zhou Wen thought to himself, Sweeties Hut is definitely very strong, but can
those words be considered a Zone Core? The Ancient Sword Tomb should be
very strong as well. The possibility of it being at the Heaven Realm is very high,
but I cant be sure. Sovereign Suis Tomb can only be considered special. Its
hard to say if its at the Heaven level.
Zhou Wen had been figuring things out by himself all this while. Today, he
finally learned more formal information. It only gave him more questions.
Why are you telling me this? Zhou Wen asked Jiuyang. He was considered an
enemy of the Holy Land, so there was no need for Jiuyang to tell him this.
Jiuyang said indifferently, These things are considered secrets among
humans, but they arent considered secrets in the Holy Land. Anyway, you will
enter the Holy Land soon, so its fine to tell you this in advance.
Its good to be confident, but you have to be prepared to suffer a setback. Zhou
Wen felt that Jiuyangs temper was very odd.
The two of them were clearly enemies. Furthermore, Zhou Wen had previously
defeated him in Dubhe Palace. They were about to have a duel.
However, Jiuyang could speak to him calmly. If it wasnt for the impending
duel, Zhou Wen even felt like he was chatting with a friend instead of an
enemy.
In fact, Zhou Wen didnt realize that he was also such a strange person. To
Jiuyang, Zhou Wen was also an enemy.
Its about time. Theres no need to wait any longer. Lets begin. Summon your
Companion Beasts and let me see what else you have other than that
Companion Beast, Jiuyang said to Zhou Wen as he glanced in the direction of
Sunset City.
Its just a duel. Theres no need to fight to the death. Why dont we set some
ground rules? Zhou Wen didnt wish to fight Jiuyang to the death.
What rules? Jiuyang asked with a frown.
Me using a Companion Beast or you using a Guardian isnt the true
manifestation of our abilities. Neither of us will use external forces and well
limit our strength at the Epic stage. How about we rely on our cultivation and
techniques to determine victory? Zhou Wen had seen Jiuyangs technique and
knew that his technique and realm were top-notch. He just lacked strength.
Alright. Jiuyang looked at Zhou Wen seriously before agreeing.
Just then, Youkai and Carlos returned and heard their conversation. Youkai was
enlightened and said, Its no wonder Zhou Wen dares to fight Jiuyang. So
thats what hes up to.
However, Carlos shook his head and said, Dont think of it so simply. Although
their strengths are at the Epic stage, Jiuyang has already experienced the
strength of the Calamity grade. By having different vantage points, Jiuyang will
see everything from a more comprehensive perspective. His realm is also
much higher than Zhou Wens. It wont be easy for Zhou Wen to win.
Thats true. Even if the same amount of money is given to different people, it
will definitely be the people with more information sources who can earn more
money. Youkai thought of the industry he was familiar with.
As the two of them were discussing, they didnt see a figure standing in the
darkness not far from them. As the environment was too dark and the figure
had no aura, he was like a ghost. No one noticed his arrival.
This person was naturally G.o.dsfall, who had been secretly monitoring Jiuyang.
He had heard Zhou Wens conversation.
Jiuyang is too stubborn. It doesnt matter if you call him stupid or clumsy, but
when it comes to persistence, Im afraid theres no one else in the world who
can compare to him. He has been cultivating martial techniques since he was
young. Among us Saints, any Saint was better than Jiuyang in the first year. In
the second year, Jiuyang could already keep up with everyones progress. And
in the third year, very few Saints of the same generation were his match when
it came to the same martial technique. They could only use other techniques to
make up for it and think of ways to defeat him. After a few years, even if
Jiuyang only uses the most ordinary martial techniques, it will be very difficult
for anyone to defeat him in terms of martial techniques.
G.o.dsfall thought to himself, If Zhou Wen wants to compete with Jiuyangin
technique and realm, theres no need for me to take action. What a pity.
What weapon are you using? Zhou Wen asked Jiuyang.
My body is the weapon, Jiuyang answered naturally, exuding full confidence.
Then you wont mind me using a saber, right? Zhou Wen said.
Feel free to do so. Jiuyang clearly didnt mind.
Zhou Wen extended his hand and the Bamboo Blade appeared in his hand.
However, after some thought, Zhou Wen put it away and summoned an Epic
Companion Beast saber.
Since he requested to have an Epic-stage battle, using the Bamboo Blade was
excessive.
You can use the saber you are used to, Jiuyang said.
It doesnt matter what saber I use. Since I was the one who came up with the
idea, you can attack first. Zhou Wen held the hilt without unsheathing it.
Jiuyang didnt stand on ceremony as he moved his feet and threw a punch at
Zhou Wen.
Indeed, he had only used the strength of the Epic stage. Furthermore, this
punch didnt look profound. It was just an ordinary thrust. It was fast enough,
but with the strength of the Epic stage, its speed was much slower than usual.
Ignoring Zhou Wen, even Youkai and Carlos could see it clearly. It wasnt
difficult to dodge.
However, Zhou Wen only used his Epic strength, so the speed he could produce
wasnt very fast. Faced with such a punch, he didnt choose to dodge. Instead,
he raised his scabbard and blocked Jiuyangs attack.
Jiuyangs expression didnt change despite having his punch being blocked. His
other fist followed as his punches rained down.
Jiuyangs boxing technique wasnt profound. Furthermore, he didnt have Feng
Qiuyans ability to grow stronger while in combat. However, this ordinary
boxing technique pressured Zhou Wen.
In this world, the more complicated something was, the higher the level.
Sometimes, simplicity was also a form of beauty, a simple sublime feeling.
Jiuyangwas the kind of person who could turn something simple into
something sublime.
It was clearly a very simple boxing technique, but when used by Jiuyang, it
became extremely threatening.
The feeling was akin to Monkey Sun having 72 transformations; yet, it was
difficult for him to withstand the might of Buddhas flip of the hand..
