Mu Yu intercepted several Body Synthesis Realm attacks with Shadow Splitter Sword and tree branches Wood Spirit Sword spawned. Using even his feet, he spawned a Gentle Wind One Line to Formation underfoot to pin two enemies together.
The two enemies broke the branch tying them then took a swing at Mu Yu. However, they noticed their movements were restricted to a single line, though it only delayed them for a brief moment. Mu Yu teleported behind them, leading to the two of them taking out each other, one blowing up.
Mu Yu let Wood Spirit absorb the dead’s spirit whilst firing leaves to obstruct Ghost Gate’s patriarch’s vision. That gave the mystery man enough time to escape to Mu Yu. Mu Yu descended to support the man for their escape. Ghost Gate’s patriarch easily intercepted Mu Yu, slamming his hand of rage down.
“Explode!” Mu Yu’s command triggered an explosion burst from the ground, one that he set whilst waiting for this event, overpowering the darkness with a flash bomb effect.
The Ascension Realm patriarch only needed a second to recover his vision and, unsurprisingly, resumed his attack as Mu Yu fled.
Thunk!
“Granny Meng, is this treason?!” Ghost Patriarch’s thundered, palm meeting a sluggish Granny Meng. “She’s dead?”
Grandpa Meng made his entrance from a void and remarked, “Wow, how lively.”
Never expecting Grandpa Meng to show up as a two-Ascension-Realm army to help him, Mu Yu stuttered, “Y-y”“I just don’t like owing people. Consider this my repayment for helping me get out of the hell hole,” explained Grandpa Meng, hands behind his back.
“Thanks!” responded Mu Yu, speeding out.
Grandpa Meng expanded Granny Meng into a balloon version of herself.
“You wouldn’t dare!” fumed Ghost Gate’s patriarch.
“Pfft, after how long she confined me for, I must be intellectually stunted to spare her.”
Using Ghost Hand Sky Sealer, Ghost Gate’s patriarch cast a domain again because, if an Ascension Realm cultivator self-destructed, that’d wipe out everything with dozens of kilometres and leave him with debilitating injuries.
“Hahaha.” As he retreated out of range and restored Granny Meng to her usual appearance, Grandpa Meng sledged, “What sort of idiots are you? Why would I waste my twin on a self-destruct?”
Rage moved Ghost Gate’s patriarch feet towards Grandpa Meng, who took off with Granny Meng back inside him.
The mystery man, who was now unconscious, had hidden away Walk-in Heart Genesis. Mu Yu couldn’t see his face for the man had cast a formation, one beyond Mu Yu’s abilities to defuse, to hide it.
Grandpa Meng split off from Mu Yu, no longer seeing a reason to risk his life helping Mu Yu. Ghost Gate’s forces decided a vengeance was nowhere near as important as their precious artefact, targeting Mu Yu instead of Grandpa Meng.
“That’s my debt repaid. Good luck,” Grandpa Meng said to himself from afar.
After running for a while, the mystery man came to and pointed. “Left.”
Mu Yu went with the suggestion since he didn’t have a plan, anyway. A little bit further ahead, they entered a Mirror Formation.
Weakly, the man instructed, “I set this formation. Follow my directions, or you will get l-”
“I know how to navigate it,” Mu Yu cut in, having figured out the formation’s general design.
“You know?” queried the man, sceptical.
Going in a roundabout, Mu Yu replied, “And I know how to deal with the pests on our tail.”
Mu Yu installed a formation he was casting in his hand into the Mirror Formation. Then, he stopped and turned around fifty-odd metres away from Ghost Gate’s group to face them.
“Leave him, and I shall spare you,” demanded Ghost Gate’s patriarch, manoeuvring cautiously because he couldn’t sense Walk-in Heart Genesis.
Ghost Gate’s patriarch needed to exercise caution for he couldn’t control Walk-in Heart Genesis perfectly and knew its weakness.
“You’re going to spare me after I killed multiple members of Ghost Gate? Didn’t know you were an altruist and peace advocate.”
Mu Yu took mini steps, then cracked a smile and sprinted toward Ghost Gate’s patriarch, prompting the latter to also charge over. As Ghost Gate’s patriarch extended his arm toward Mu Yu’s throat, the latter somehow slipped through and positioned himself amongst the rest of Ghost Gate’s group.
“What the?! He’s not a soul is he?!”
“Who cares? Get him!”
Mu Yu phased through Ghost Gate’s members, causing them to collide with each other.
“Come on, man. Did you really think you’d catch me in this Mirror Formation?” provoked Mu Yu, modifying the formation foundations to modify the formation.
Mu Yu planted more formations into Mirror Formation, then drifted right and burst off. Ghost Gate’s group found themselves unable to close the five-metre gap between themselves and Mu Yu regardless of how hard they chased.
“A formation won’t be enough to stop me, naïve runt!”
Ghost Gate’s patriarch rocked the formation with a tide of ghost qi. Then, he hit it again even harder, tearing it down.
“Your childish tricks can’t stop me!”
