Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

Everyone to the same Destination

“I still do not understand,” stated Long Xingyun, quivering.

“In other words, you should return me Ocean Fiend King’s body and Blood Domain Demon Soul,” replied Gui Yuzi, in a calm tone.

“But I was told you would spare me if I subdued all of the souls on the island,” argued Long Xingyun, suppressing his rage as he recalled Mu Yu’s warning.

“I did say that, but I never clarified what that specifically entailed,” Gui Ximing mocked.

“You are going back on your word?!”

“No, no, no. Blood Domain Demon Soul only lasts seven days for you unlike me. What did you think I spent five thousand years on this lame island for?” Gui Yuzi questioned, still taking his time.

“Y-you deliberately stayed on the island?”

“It was the only way to survive and figure out how to overcome Blood Domain Demon Soul’s downside. To attain immortality, I came up with the even more genius idea of reviving myself in Ocean Fiend King’s immortal body.” Gui Yuzi wore on a hysterical visage, continuing, “Gui Ximing disappointed me, though, giving it to you.”

“Please forgive me,” begged Gui Ximing, folding forward.

“It doesn’t matter now. Your actions did confirm for me that my plan to take Ocean Fiend King’s immortal body is flawless. Now, it’s time for me to revive.”

“I’m the one who’s going to live!”

Long Xingyun enveloped himself in red qi as he bolted to the island’s edge, privy to his immense speed and ability to overcome Reverend Xuan Jizi’s formation. Alas, Gui Ximing activated the red threads, Blood Soul Silk. As a result, the pain overwhelmed Long Xingyun, dropping him to the ground. Curled up and grimacing, Long Xingyun pleaded, “Please, please don’t kill me! Please!”

“You’re the biggest coward I’ve ever come across,” commented Gui Yuzi, gliding to Long Xingyun.

Clutching Long Xingyun’s skull, Gui Yuzi sucked out Long Xingyun’s soul whilst diving into Ocean Fiend King’s body. Ocean Fiend King’s body appearance switched to Gui Yuzi’s appearance as well as adopted his ghost qi, except his qi put Long Xingyun’s to shame.

“An immortal body really is perfection.”

Gui Yuzi rose to his feet, then howled as he relished the power coursing through his hands. Gui Bao passed Gui Yuzi Thousand Inch Ocean Ruler, bestowing the latter with a white energy armour protecting every inch of his body. Gui Yuzi soared past the barrier on the island to reach the sky and, with one belt, sent the ocean and sky into a turbulent state, thunder clapping and waves swirling.

“Give me enough time, and I will restore Ocean Fiend King’s cultivation, where I will truly be immortal, hahaha!” declared Gui Yuzi, creating an even more tumultuous sky and ocean.

“Elder, we now need Walk-in Heart Genesis,” Gui Yeming reminded from the island.

“Gui Yeming, you and I shall enter Fiend-Sealing Pagoda. We’ll personally go to the thirty-ninth floor to brand the lunar gods’ phantoms onto the Divine Lunar Stones and then capture that kid. Gui Ximing, stand guard outside. Do not let Mu Yu escape. As for that coward of a fiend” – Gui Yuzi extended his arm and closed his fist, blowing up Long Xingyun’s soul into gas for himself to absorb – “is unnecessary now.”

“This doesn’t sit right with me,” stated Mu Yu, leaning on the wall of the ordinary pagoda that made up the twenty-eighth floor.

“What exactly are you referring to?” Qiao Xue inquired, waiting for another four hours to go buy so that they could transfer to the fifty-second floor to reach the prison.

“Did you feel that small quake half an hour ago? Considering it’s Reverend Xuan Jizi’s pagoda, something is amiss.”

“I didn’t feel anything.”

“I can’t stop worrying about Ghost Gate’s group using Blood Domain Demon Soul to control the souls on the island. How about we hurry out to check on the situation outside as well as ask Elder Helian Kong if he has any strategy to counter Blood Domain Demon Soul?”

“Didn’t you say we have to pass through the thirty-ninth floor to reach the first floor? We’re not going out of our way, then.”

“I’m concerned we might bump into Gui Ximing and company on the thirty-ninth floor. There’s no way we’re able to match them down there. Four hours ago, Gui Ximing could’ve reached the first floor sooner than the thirty-ninth floor. Four hours later, it’s faster to reach the sixtieth floor than the first floor.”

“What do you have in mind?”

“… On second thought, I probably need to cool off. It should take him six hours to reach the first floor if he stops by the thirty-ninth floor. It’s not as if we could’ve stopped Gui Ximing if he left the pagoda, anyway. Let’s continue to the thirty-ninth floor.” Mu Yu stood up. “We’re heading to the lunar gods’ prison via the twenty-fifth floor. Be more vigilant than ever.”

There were two paths leading to the thirty-ninth floor at the moment, one via the fifty-second floor and the other via the seventh floor, which was where Ghost Gate’s duo already was!

“Is the next floor where the lunar gods’ holding cells are?” Gui Yeming queried.

“It is. They’ll be useful for our plan,” answered Gui Yuzi, making his way to the passage.
