Chapters 1140 - A Request For Aid from Second Senior Apprentice Brother
Su Yi charged without the slightest hesitation.
Bang!!!
As the two of them clashed head-on, the already devastated landscape descended into chaos and turmoil.
Heaven and earth dimmed, and the sun and moon lost their light.
After their experience in their first battle, it seemed the two of them had tacitly agreed to use the strongest methods at their disposal. Neither held back in the slightest.
Thus, the battle reached peak intensity as soon as it began.
The spearwoman was suppressing a bellyful of fire, and she struck with tyrannical, unshakeable force. Every strike shattered the skies with enough force to deal death and devastation on all sides.
Su Yi used his fingers as a sword, striking both heaven and earth. He didn’t back down in the slightest, and every slash contained shocking destructive force.
From a distance, it looked as if two deities were fighting on land, disregarding their life and death, ferocious to the extreme.
As time passed, the battle intensified.
Both of them were starting to take injuries, and blood sprayed through the air.
But neither Su Yi nor the spearwoman minded in the slightest. Their will, minds, spirit, qi, and essence were unified and entirely focused on the raging battle. They’d forgotten themselves completely, and they had no fear of death.
The woman\'s spear arts were extraordinary: simple, yet forceful to the extreme. That made them tyrannical beyond limit and full of shocking destructive power.
Her Laws of the Grand Dao were much the same. They displayed utter destructive power, destroying everything in their way. They were far beyond the Laws of Heavenly Prayer, Cosmic Silence, and Spirit Nirvana.
Su Yi had to use the Mysterious Truths of the End to contend with them. The Laws of Rebirth, Withering and Flourishing, and the Far Shore were all a bit inferior.
Heaven and earth were in uproar, and the landscape overturned as everything was annihilated.
In the end, they lost track of how many ferocious blows they’d exchanged. By now, few parts of them remained intact. It was an incomparably brutal sight.
Bang!!
In the end, a muffled impact shook the heavens as both Su Yi and the spearwoman plummeted from the skies and slammed to the ground.
Both were long since exhausted, and they were sustaining themselves with their shocking willpower alone. When they hit the ground, even Su Yi’s vision briefly went black.
As a cloud of dust rose into the air, the spearwoman suddenly gnashed her teeth, shot forth, and struck like lightning, charging toward the nearby Su Yi.
There was no time for Su Yi to get up, so he rolled over and tried to dodge.
“Get down on the ground for me!” The spearwoman bellowed as she slammed into him like a meteor.
Su Yi’s bones practically popped out of their joints, and the pain made him gasp even as he reached for the spearwoman’s head.
She laughed coldly, her hands like iron bands as they pressed on the joints of Su Yi’s arms, leaving him unable to move.
However, she too was severely injured and running out of steam. After suppressing Su Yi, she couldn’t help but pause to pant in ragged gasps.
Even so, her purple eyes shone with a hint of smug pride as she looked down at the now-suppressed Su Yi. Her bloodless lips curved into a grin. “Quick, admit defeat!”
But she’d only just said this when her delicate frame quivered.
Su Yi had suddenly thrust his waist with such tyrannical force that he almost pushed her off.
Her beautiful eyes glinted with a hint of shame and anger, practically spitting fire.
Her long, slender legs almost instinctively clamped around Su Yi’s waist, her butt directly on his stomach as she pressed him firmly to the ground.
“Do you admit defeat?” The spearwoman gnashed her teeth, her gaze vicious.
But how could Su Yi possibly submit? He laughed coldly and thrust his waist once more, shifting in an attempt to turn over and fling the spearwoman to the ground.
She instantly felt as if she were seated astride a bucking horse. Her delicate figure swayed, and she had no choice but to use her arms and legs to cling to Su Yi with all her might.
But before long, she realized that something wasn’t right.
Although she’d thoroughly suppressed him, there was only a battered, bloodied layer of fabric between them, and as they fought with all their might, their bodies repeatedly rubbed and twisted together...
“Err...” The spearwoman practically went mad with shame and fury. She could clearly sense something hard and searing hot right where she was sitting. As she moved, that sensation...
“Detestable!!!” Her pupils constricted to the size of needlepoints as she shot to her feet and stomped at Su Yi.
He rolled over and dodged.
Boom!
Her foot scattered fragments of rock on impact, creating a massive crater.
Su Yi immediately got up and looked at the enraged, practically frenzied spearwoman. He took a moment to subtly hide his “spear,” then said with a strange look on his face, “You’re the one who got on top of me. I...”
“Shut your mouth!” The spearwoman seethed with murderous intent. Although her bronze mask obscured her face and hid her expression, the hatred in her eyes was practically tangible.
Su Yi realized that she was on the verge of exploding, and that it wouldn’t do to provoke her.
“Forget it. I’ll admit defeat for now,” Su Yi said with apparent magnanimity.
The spearwoman was so angry that she laughed. “Do you think me so unreasonable? Winning is winning, and losing is losing. Even if you admit defeat... I won’t accept it!”
“....”
A moment later, she seemed to cool down. She said coldly, “Let’s end things here this time. We can duke it out again after I’ve returned from the Netherworld.”
As she spoke, misty light surged around her, and her battered frame instantly returned to peak condition. She was instantly lively and in high spirits.
Once healed, she stepped into the air and prepared to leave.
“Are you really going to seek out the secrets of reincarnation?” asked Su Yi.
“Is there a problem with that?” said the spearwoman.
Su Yi was quite surprised; everyone knew he’d mastered the secrets of reincarnation, and with the spearwoman’s cultivation, she could have used force to pry them out of him.
But she was doing no such thing.
That was more than enough to make Su Yi more positively inclined toward her. “You can find the secrets of reincarnation in the Burial Ground of the Dao in the Sea of Bitterness. But it’s an extremely dangerous place. No matter how high your cultivation is, if you can’t grasp its secrets, every step will be difficult.”
The spearwoman froze, stunned. “Earlier, you said you had a question for me. Go ahead and ask.”
I tossed her a peach, and now she’s handing me a plum? Su Yi laughed. “It’s nothing big; I just want to ask about some of my old friends’ whereabouts.”
He then explained what had happened to the Skythorn Poison Emperor, the Peerless Martial Emperor, and their companions.
The spearwoman remembered them and promptly told Su Yi that she hadn’t made things difficult for them. The whole group had long since proceeded further into the starry skies.
After hearing the full story, Su Yi completely relaxed. “Many thanks.”
The woman pridefully disregarded him, then disappeared in a flash.
Su Yi, meanwhile, sat cross-legged to cultivate and tend to his wounds.
Several hours passed before he rose and left the now-ruined stretch of wasteland to begin his journey back to the Grotto of Abstruse Force.
......
After the curtains fell on the Grand Battle against the Tailor, Su Yi reclaimed control of the Grotto of Abstruse Force, and an unprecedented uproar swept across the Wilds.
Word of the battle was on every corner, and Su Yi’s prestige was greater than ever before!
“This is what they mean when they speak of living legends!” someone sighed. And indeed, there was no need to elaborate on the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force’s legendary accomplishments.
Meanwhile, as word of the battle spread, so did information about the stars beyond the Wilds, provoking spirited discussion throughout the Nine Provinces.
The stars beyond the Wilds had always been mysterious and unfathomable, like a taboo full of dangerous flair.
But now that the forces of the Studio of the Heart, Nine Heavens Pavilion, and Church of the River of Stars had entered the Wilds, attacked Su Yi, only to fall one by one, the people of the Wilds realized that the experts of the stars beyond weren’t invincible after all!
Nor were they as lofty or unshakeable as the rumors suggested!
“The only thing that makes us weaker than the cultivators of the stars beyond is that we lack a path beyond the Profound Dao! There’s no need to fear them!”
Some of the old-timers’ hearts swelled with emotion.
As word spread, they learned more secrets, and they finally learned that there really was something beyond the Profound Dao: the Path of Heaven’s Ascension!
“Apparently, the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force already shared the secrets of the Path of Heaven’s Ascension with those Imperial Apex Realm living fossils. I can picture it already. Soon, the Wilds will surely have World Kings of its own!”
Others were full of eagerness.
“His Excellency Su really lives up to his reputation. What breadth of spirit! What magnanimity! Throughout the world and all of history, none can compare! He really is the greatest living legend of all time!”
...As the entire area boiled over with discussion, some people caught a whiff of impending danger.
“Don’t celebrate too quickly. Those factions of the stars beyond fell flat on their face. How could they just endure in silence?”
“They’re sure to return sooner or later!”
“And when that happens, the greater His Excellency Su’s prestige, the greater their retaliation will be!”
“When a nest is overturned, how can the eggs within survive intact? If His Excellency Su falls, great changes will be in store for the Wilds...”
In stark contrast with the uproar outside, the Grotto of Abstruse Force was calm and tranquil.
Su Yi was in seclusion, and his disciples were each cultivating independently.
Seclusion was always a part of cultivators’ long lives.
Su Yi had already divided the treasures in the Grotto of Abstruse Force’s treasury amongst his disciples. He also gave them each a Dark and Gold Treasure to cultivate with.
When it came to this sort of thing, Su Yi had never been a selfish sort.
Time quickly slipped by.
Before long, two months had passed, and the Wilds had gradually returned to its former peace and tranquility.
Only the Wilds’ peak orthodoxies understood that sooner or later, a storm from the stars beyond would inevitably befall the Wilds!
No one could predict how terrifying it would be.
Nonetheless, the peak factions were already preparing for the worst.
As for Su Yi? During his two months of cultivation, he refined a full four Dark and Gold Treasures and raised his cultivation base to the late-stage Profound Serenity Realm!
Furthermore, he was just a hair’s breadth from the peak of the realm!
I’ve only got four Dark and Gold Treasures left... Within the cave, Su Yi awakened from his meditation and frowned.
As his cultivation base grew, he’d need to refine more and more Dark and Gold Essence. Only then could he maintain this state of extreme growth and transformation.
If I lack sufficient Dark and Gold Essence upon stepping into the Profound Unity Realm, I’m afraid I’ll have no choice but to take a trip to the Graveyard of Fallen Immortals... thought Su Yi.
As he pondered, Jin Kui’s slightly frantic voice emanated from beyond the cave.
“Master, this is terrible! I just received a message from Second Senior Apprentice Brother. It seems he’s encountered unexpected life-or-death peril!”
