Chapter 975 - Leaving Them All in the Dust

Su Yi’s voice had yet to finish echoing through the air when two more figures appeared out of nowhere.2

One was a tall, stalwart man in robes embroidered with dragons. He had a mustache shaped like a halberd, and his features were coarse. His entire body was wrapped in densely concentrated arcs of silver lightning.0

The other was a moving beauty in colorful palace garb. As she looked around, her gaze was utterly dignified.0

Two more Profound Serenity experts!0

Su Yi wasn’t overly surprised by this. Shortly after his arrival in the Burial Ground of the Dao, he learned from Nine-Star Sword Mountain’s Fu Donghua that the forces the Abstruse Alliance had sent on this mission included four Profound Serenity powerhouses. When he saw these four, their auras alone were enough for him to discern their origins.0contemporary romance

The dark-robed elder with the fly whisk was from Dragon Tiger Dao Mountain.0

The golden-robed man was from Nine-Star Sword Mountain.0

The man with a halberd-shaped beard was from the Divine Blue Lightning Sect.0

And the beautiful woman in palace garb was from the Cloud-Scraping Yao Sect!0

Dragon Tiger Dao Mountain, Nine-Star Sword Mountain, and the Divine Blue Lightning Sect were collectively known as the Three Great Daoist Sects of the Wilds. As for the Cloud-Scraping Yao Sect, it was one of the Wilds’ first-rate factions of yao cultivators.1

“You must be Su Yi. You really can’t judge people by their appearances. If we hadn’t learned of your accomplishments from that blind guy’s memories, we would never have dared believe that someone so heaven-defying existed in this world,” said the man from the Divine Blue Lightning Sect. His voice was grave, with a hint of astonishment.3

“That old blind man suspects that you’re the descendant of the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force. Is that truly the case?” The woman from the Cloud-Scraping Yao Sect asked with a laugh.1

As they conversed, the four Profound Serenity old monsters approached the ritual grounds from four different directions. They’d already sealed off all possible escape routes.0

A stifled, oppressive atmosphere permeated the entire stretch of heaven and earth.0

The old blind man’s expression was utterly bleak, as if he’d fallen into an icy abyss. He said bitterly, “Your Excellency, I’m the one who hurt you…”0

Su Yi patted him on the shoulder and said calmly, “What are you saying? Just rest for now.”0

With that, he waved his sleeves, and the Seed of the Azure appeared out of thin air.0

A rain of light fell, and the old blind man instantly disappeared into the seed.0

“A World Source Seed!” The dark-robed old man’s eyes instantly lit up, and he gasped, “What a treasure!”0

The other three seemed similarly tempted.0

“I’m sure that’s not the only good treasure the kid has on him,” laughed the golden-robed man. His gaze was that of a predator who’d spotted its prey, and his eyes shone with playful mockery.0

They’d searched the old blind man’s soul, and they knew Su Yi’s accomplishments like the backs of their hands.0

“But then, that makes sense. The boy is a suspected descendant of the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force. He surely has all manner of unbelievable secret arts and treasures in reserve. Capturing him would be no different from seizing a stroke of fortune as grand as the heavens themselves,” the man with the halberd-like mustache said gravely. His eyes blazed with unconcealed murderous intent.0

“Little fellow, if you want to live, be good and cooperate. Go push open the doors to that bronze temple,” the woman in palace garb said gently. “We searched that old man’s memories, and we know of your abilities. So long as you open that door, you have hope of getting out of this alive.”0

The other three Profound Serenity experts’ eyes instantly locked onto Su Yi.0

Su Yi’s expression remained calm.0

He was naturally capable of opening the doors to the bronze temple. But of course, he wasn’t going to do that.0

In his past life, he sensed that the temple imprisoned an extremely strange and mysterious power. It was dangerous beyond comparison; it could have threatened him even at the pinnacle of his past life!0

Given the circumstances, there was no way he’d open the door.0

Admittedly, by opening the doors, he could direct the resulting crisis and use it to take down the four Profound Serenity Emperors. But that would unquestionably place him in unpredictable peril too!0

Su Yi swept his gaze across the four Profound Serenity powerhouses, but he said nothing. He could no longer be bothered to learn the full story behind this death trap. It didn’t matter whose idea this was, or why they were targeting him. None of that was important!0

He flipped his palm, and the Immortal-Beating Mallet silently appeared.0

When the dark-robed elder saw this, his gaze focused, and he bellowed, “Attack!”0

Boom!0

He led the way, swinging his snow-white whisk and stirring up a streak of indomitable white firelight that enveloped Su Yi from afar.0

Practically simultaneously, the other three experts took action. One terrifying power after another burst forth within this enormous cave.0

But Su Yi didn’t so much as glance at them. He simply raised the Immortal-Beating Mallet and hit the air.0

Boom!!0

The black chains filling the cave clattered as if they’d been struck. It was as if thousands of whips, each belonging to a god, were releasing their power simultaneously. The terrifying energy fluctuations of the Laws burst forth and swept outward like a tidal wave or avalanche. The entire cave instantly shook violently. 0

“This is bad!” All four Profound Serenity Emperors visibly reacted. They could no longer concern themselves with taking down Su Yi. Instead, they immediately chose to flee.0

They’d arrived here well in advance, and they’d already investigated. They knew just how tyrannical the Laws surrounding those black chains were; they were full of calamitous, destructive power. However, they’d been comforted by the realization that even an Emperor would struggle to move those black chains.0

Who’d have thought that Su Yi could achieve this with a single tap? It was much like how a single beat of a butterfly’s wings could trigger a series of changes that led to a calamitous windstorm!0

Thousands of black chains shook, as if they’d been awakened after lying dormant since ancient times. All of them burst with unimaginable destructive power!!0

“Once I become an Emperor, I’ll personally send each of you on your way. When the time comes, I’ll teach you what it means to long to die, yet be unable to do so.”0

As Su Yi watched the Profound Serenity Emperors flee in panic, his eyes shone with disdain, and he turned and left.  Along the way, the destructive, turbulent power of the Laws swept toward him, but the power of the Immortal-Beating Mallet neutralized it before it drew near.0

Just like that, Su Yi’s tall, upright figure disappeared from the cave.0

Behind him, heaven and earth shook, misty light ran rampant, and thunderous booms rang out. From time to time, the four Profound Serenity Emperors alarmed, enraged cries filled the air.0

……0

“This is bad! Something happened outside of the bronze temple!”0

As they proceeded through the tunnel, Gu Ziming and the others looked stunned. Despite the distance, they could clearly sense the disturbance.0

“No need for concern. Four Profound Serenity Realm seniors are keeping watch there. Even if something happened, they’ll be able to neutralize it with ease.” Gu Ziming took a deep breath and said solemnly. 0

The others' taut nerves relaxed considerably.0

But then, Shangguan Jie cried out, “Quick, look! Someone’s coming!”0

Everyone looked over. There, further down the tunnel, they saw a young man in blue headed their way. His gait looked unhurried, but in truth, he was moving incomparably quickly.0

“Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivation… So, it’s him!” Gu Ziming was stunned. “But how did he escape? Don’t tell me something else happened in there?”0

The others were bewildered too. However, they had no time to give the matter any further thought. Su Yi was coming right toward them!0

“Stop right there!”0

A white-haired elder shouted explosively and drew a glittering golden Daoist seal, which he flung at Su Yi.0

Clang!0

The clear hum of a sword rang out.0

Su Yi gripped Abstruse Celestial. Instead of dodging, he leaped into the air.0

Bang!!0

The incoming golden seal was sent flying on impact. Before the white-haired elder could change his approach, a streak of flowing light flashed across his neck like the sharp edge of a sword.0

Splurt!0

A bloody head flew through the air, and the elder’s headless corpse exploded with a bang.0

One slash, and Su Yi had cut down a late-stage Profound Illumination Emperor. 0

This bloody scene astonished Gu Ziming and company. They dared not hesitate; all of them took out their treasures and attacked with full force.0

Boom!0

The tunnel’s interior shook violently as all manner of treasures flew through the air and a waterfall of misty light swept outward.0

A group of Emperors was attacking in unison. Force like that could destroy an entire landscape or obliterate an entire large-scale city with ease! However, even though this was a tunnel carved into the side of a mountain, the combined power of their attacks didn’t damage the surrounding rock in the slightest.0

Why? Because the entirety of the Divine Cave of the Six Paths was covered in the power of Laws. Not just any Emperor could shake this power. Otherwise, over the years, the cave would likely have been destroyed many times over.0

Boom!0

A sudden confrontation broke out in this confined space. 0

Su Yi’s qi rumbled around him, and he activated the full extent of his cultivation base without the slightest hesitation as he charged directly into the fray. No shrinking back, no hesitation. Sword qi burst forth, like the boundless river of stars, forcefully blocking the attacks of more than ten Emperors at once!0

“This…” Gu Ziming and the others’ hearts shook.0

He was a young Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivator, yet he’d blocked the attacks of more than ten Emperors at once. How terrifying was that?0

It was shocking, simply unheard of!0

A burst of light fell like rain, and Su Yi shot forward, swinging Abstruse Celestial with all his might.0

Boom!0

A deafening impact rang out.0

A heavy saber was sent flying, and the Emperor wielding it was cut directly in two. Fresh blood poured down like a waterfall, and he didn’t even have time to scream.0

This left the nearby Emperors' hair standing on end, and they instinctively dodged. This young man in blue’s momentum was far too terrifying. He struck like lightning, and nothing could stand in his way!0

Profound Illumination Emperors, regardless of strength, couldn’t take so much as a single blow! Who wouldn’t have been surprised?0

Su Yi seized the opportunity to cut into this pack of enemies like a sharp knife.0

The tunnel wasn’t all that big. Due to the cramped space, fighting here meant melee, and the enemies’ numerical advantage worked against them. Crowded together like this, they constrained each other, and when they fought, they had little choice but to hold back. They couldn’t use some of their stronger secret arts and treasures, because if they did, they’d surely hurt their allies too.0

And this gave Su Yi an opportunity to exploit!0

His entire body lit up, as if his qi were on fire. He was like the edge of a sword unparalleled in its sharpness, and he charged straight ahead without reservations. Everywhere his sword passed, it broke through everything in its path!0

Agonized cries, shrill shrieks, roars, and the impact of treasure colliding against treasure rang out continuously. The scene was like a vision of purgatory. And just a few breaths of time later, Su Yi had killed his way through his enemies’ encirclement, and he disappeared down the far end of the tunnel.0

He had swept through them, sword in hand.0

Leaving them all in the dust!
