Chapter 1108 – A Single Slash Overturns the Rain and Clouds
Within the demonic realm.
As soon as Su Yi shot inside, he saw a blood-red thundercloud sweeping toward him ferociously.
A moment later, the blood-red cloud exploded with a bang, revealing the tall, powerful figure of a demonic god. He was over a hundred feet tall, with a snake’s head on a human body, and his eyes blazed red. He carried a dazzlingly bright, blood-red spear.
Within his battered armor, his aura was ferocious and explosive. Every breath he took rumbled like thunder, throwing the skies into turmoil.
“The Snake Spirit Race? No, this guy’s aura is closer to a demon’s. Furthermore, it seems his awareness has dimmed...”
But before Su Yi could examine him any further...
“Die!”
A mighty bellow shook the heavens, and the snake-headed man shot toward him.
A blood-red spear pierced through the sky, stirring up a rampaging windstorm of the Grand Dao. Its power was far beyond even an exceptional early-stage Profound Unity cultivator like Pi Mo.
Su Yi’s gaze focused, and without the slightest hesitation, he took out the Tiny Heart of the Cosmos and attacked with all his might.
Boom!
Firelight blazed, and sword qi rumbled and boomed.
Su Yi, meanwhile, was forced several steps back. His blood and qi churned without end.
“He isn’t a real World King after all. When the Painter trapped him in the scroll painting, he destroyed his body and trapped his soul. His strength is far from what it was in life! Furthermore, his awareness is muddled. He’s at best comparable to a late-stage Profound Unity Emperor.”
Although Su Yi looked haggard after taking that blow, he felt renewed confidence.
Were he up against a true World King, Su Yi figured he’d have no choice but to flee, at least for now.
“Die!” The snake-headed spirit attacked once more.
Su Yi set aside his scattered thoughts, swung the Tiny Heart of the Cosmos, and clashed with him head-on.
Furthermore, he directly activated the strongest of the mysteries of reincarnation, the Laws of the End!
Boom!
A grand battle broke out. Sword qi ran rampant, and blood-colored light swept out like a tide. It was a vision of destruction and devastation.
Because the battle took place within the Primordial Hellscape Painting, the distant onlookers were too afraid of being swept into it to use their divine senses. With their naked eyes, they could only barely see that Su Yi was locked in fierce combat with that snake-headed demon god. They couldn’t make out the details.
Even so, their hearts quivered.
The aura of the Primordial Hellscape Painting was enough to leave even Emperors on the verge of a mental breakdown, yet Su Yi had charged right in. Who wouldn’t have been astonished?
“The Tiny Heart of the Cosmos... Master, you’ve already drawn your favorite sword. It seems you’ve been pushed to the point that you no longer dare hold back...”
Pi Mo was the closest, so he could see the battle clearly. His expression subtly relaxed.
As the first of the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force’s disciples, he knew better than anybody that his master disdained to use the Tiny Heart of the Cosmos except in a life-or-death battle!
“That’s not the only terrifying spirit trapped within the Primordial Hellscape Painting. Master, oh, Master. How long will your struggles last?” whispered Pi Mo.
He whispered, “Did you know? I’ve long since realized that defeating someone of your caliber required first understanding your personality. Perhaps because you spent too long standing atop the Wilds, you’ve developed a blind, conceited heart. In the past, that might not have been a problem, but in the face of true peril, that blind conceit will get you killed!
“But...” A sneer rife with dense mockery tugged at Pi Mo’s lips. “If not for that blind conceit, I’m afraid you wouldn’t have been stupid enough to charge directly into the Primordial Hellscape Painting, and I wouldn’t have been able to use this method to... send you on your way!”
Indeed, just as Pi Mo predicted, yet another terrifying spirit appeared in the Primordial Hellscape Painting and attacked Su Yi.
This time, it was a stick-thin elder in a dilapidated iron crown. Blood poured from his eye sockets, and his skin was deathly pale. He held a blood-stained, broken sword, and although he looked like a corpse, his strength was actually even greater than the snake-headed spirit’s!
As soon as the elder in the iron crown joined the fray, Su Yi’s predicament worsened.
This reassured Pi Mo. Just two of the terrifying spirits had attacked, but his master was already in peril. This meant his master had no hope of turning this around!
No wonder Junior Apprentice Sister Song Chai said that the situation wasn’t serious. She was right; even without her intervention, the Primordial Hellscape Painting is enough to make me invincible here in the Wilds!
When Pi Mo recalled how frantic he’d felt earlier, he couldn’t help but feel rueful.
Before long, a third terrifying spirit joined the fray.
She was a woman whose body was so damaged that even her bones were dimly discernible. Her hair was a mess, and she was bleeding all over. She wasn’t weaker than the elder in the iron crown, either!
With her in the mix, Su Yi was surrounded and in dire straits. Furthermore, he was starting to pile on injuries!
“Is Old Monster Su putting on an act? Or is he really no match for them?” The Skythorn Poison Emperor was alarmed. He couldn’t stay calm.
It wasn’t just him, either. Everyone could see that with three terrifying spirits surrounding him, each like a demon god, Su Yi’s situation didn’t bode well!
Everyone’s heart was on tenterhooks. They were more nervous than ever before.
Throughout history, who had ever seen the sole sovereign of the Wilds, the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force, looking so unseemly?
Jin Kui, Ye Luo and the others held their breath. Their expressions were incomparably solemn.
Pi Mo, conversely, was visibly excited. He seemed to be in extremely high spirits.
Suddenly, he whipped his head around, faced Jin Kui and the others, and said, “Junior apprentice brothers and sisters, how about you try and persuade Master to admit defeat? If he does, I promise to send him on his way with dignity!”
Every word sounded utterly sincere.
But the contents of his words left Jin Kui and the others incomparably enraged. They gnashed their teeth so hard that they almost broke.
"I’ll kill that bastard!” Wang Que stepped forth, boiling over with murderous intent.
“Don’t!” Jin Kui hurriedly urged him to stop. “Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten Master’s orders? Besides, Master has overcome countless life-or-death battles. If he really couldn’t turn this around, he’d have used some other method to break free. He wouldn’t just fight to the bitter end for nothing!”
“Senior Apprentice Brother, stay calm. I’d love nothing more than to slaughter that Pi Mo too, but more than that, I trust that Master absolutely won’t lose so easily!” Bai Yi said gravely.
Wang Que froze, then fell silent.
Bai Yi’s heart was as pure as a blank sheet of paper, and he was a combat maniac, yet even he was holding back. Even he had chosen to watch from the sidelines. Wang Que couldn’t help but feel ashamed of himself.
Suddenly, the grand high elder of the Nine Extremes Profound Capital shouted, “This is bad! Several more terrifying spirits are attacking!”
Indeed, within the Primordial Hellscape Painting, four more terrifying spirits joined the fray. Each of them was ferocious and unstoppable. They weren’t any weaker than the three currently surrounding Su Yi.
With so many terrifying foes surrounding him, Su Yi’s injuries piled up in a flash. He was bleeding nonstop, and his situation seemed increasingly dire.
“Dammit!” The Skythorn Poison Emperor cursed under his breath. His expression finally changed.
Jin Kui and the others stiffened. Their fists clenched.
“His Excellency Su....” Yan Suni’s beautiful face shifted, and she felt too stifled to speak.
He’s definitely going to be okay. I’m sure of it... Yue Shichan had long since shut her eyes; she couldn’t bear to watch. She prayed in silence, but the subtle quivering of her delicate frame betrayed just how nervous and uneasy she was.
Further away, Ji Yuan of the Little Western Paradise watched, his eyes flashing. It would truly be a pity for someone like you to perish in the Painter’s Primordial Hellscape Painting...
By now, Pi Mo had relaxed completely. He clasped his fist and bowed, his voice booming like thunder. “Master, please depart in peace. I promise to gather your remains personally, and I’ll select an auspicious day to bury you in the Grotto of Abstruse Force!”
“!!!” Pi Mo’s unfilial words left the crowd aghast.
After all, the reincarnation of the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force wasn’t dead yet, but Pi Mo was already planning his burial!
“That bastard!!” Jin Kui and the others were so angry that their eyes bulged.
Even the Skythorn Poison Emperor was overcome with murderous intent. He was beside himself with rage.
Next to Pi Mo, the few remaining Emperors of the Six Great Daoist Sects felt a massive weight lift from their shoulders, and their spirits soared.
There was no doubt about it. The Swordmaster of Abstruse Force would struggle to escape calamity!
But it was then that Su Yi’s disdainful laughter rang out.
“We’ve yet to determine a victory. Don’t you think you’re celebrating prematurely?”
His voice wasn’t loud, yet it reverberated clearly throughout every last onlooker’s ears. free webno vel
Then, an astonishing scene unfolded before them——
The boundless hum of a sword suddenly reverberated throughout the Primordial Hellscape Painting, and the heavily wounded Su Yi suddenly swung his sword and charged.
Clang!
The blade manifested of the Tiny Heart of the Cosmos struck with a swath of mysterious, obscure power. It cleaved right through the snake-headed evil spirit, like an axe through bamboo. His body exploded, and he died on the spot!
Then, an indistinct, battered remnant of a soul floated into the air, faced the distant Su Yi, and inclined its head in greeting. “Thank you for helping me escape confinement in this demonic realm!” 𝓯𝙧𝒆𝒆𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝓸𝓿𝒆𝓵.𝙘𝓸𝓶
It sounded gratified, as if it had obtained release.
Then, that battered remnant soul dissipated.
“What...?” Everyone was left wide-eyed and tongue-tied.
“How is that possible!?” Pi Mo’s smile froze in place, and his heart quivered.
The Emperors beside him were dumbstruck. This came as an enormous shock.
Before they could process this sudden development...
They watched as Su Yi continued swinging his sword. Those endlessly terrifying, ferocious spirits broke like paper maché. With every slash, Su Yi suppressed and killed them where they stood!
As if he were chopping up vegetables!
This change had come far too suddenly, and it completely overturned the onlookers’ imaginations.
After all, earlier, Su Yi had been thoroughly surrounded and covered in wounds. It had seemed like he wouldn’t last much longer, and most of the onlookers thought he was unlikely to escape disaster.
Who’d have thought that in the blink of an eye, he’d turn the situation on its head? And he was even so tyrannical and terrifying. None of those frightful spirits could withstand even a single slash!
This was unquestionably far too unbelievable. Everyone felt completely dumbstruck.
And as the terrifying spirits were cut down, one battered, indistinct soul rose into the air after another.
They took on the shapes of an old man in an iron crown, a moving beauty, a tall, stalwart man with a spear strapped across his back, and...
All of them inclined their heads and greeted Su Yi.
“Fellow Daoist, thank you for helping us find release!”
“Fellow Daoist, thank you for helping us find release!”
“Fellow Daoist, thank you for helping us find release!”
Their delighted, grateful voices echoed throughout that blood-stained vision of purgatory without end, filling it with an austere, pious atmosphere.
Everyone who witnessed this was left dazed, no exceptions.
