Chapter 1356 - Scram Before I Lose My Temper

With Su Yi’s current cultivation, cutting down several dozen Transcendents was sure to take a fair bit of time.

But since they’d begun a clash of trump cards, he could wipe them all out at once with the Sword of the Nine Hells’ power!

The dust and smoke dispersed, and heaven and earth returned to normal.

With that, the group that had originally surrounded him, over a hundred Transcendents of different camps, had all perished!

Their ranks included twenty or so Dao Integration Realm revenants, as well as top newly minted Transcendents of the present day like Zhong Tianquan and Zhou Hanshan!

Off in the distance, an enraged voice rang out. The skies suddenly split, and a figure shot toward him. “Little beast, you’re seeking death!”

This was none other than the thin old man from Illusory Sword Immortal Tower. His murderous intent soared into the heavens. He held a crimson gourd in one hand, an immortal sword in the other as he slashed at Su Yi.

Boom!

The immortal sword cleaved through the air, manifesting immeasurable immortal light and triggering energy fluctuations in the Laws.

That terrifying power was far beyond any “ordinary” treasure of the Immortal Dao.

Everywhere the eye could see, unstoppable sword qi descended, as if intent on splitting heaven and earth.

Su Yi’s pupils constricted.

The power of this slash was far beyond those Dao Integration revenants’ killer weapons. It was far too powerful and tyrannical.

There was no doubt about it. This thin old man’s cultivation was terrifying to the extreme, and this immortal sword was in no way comparable to ordinary treasures.

Su Yi dared not hesitate. He immediately drew on the aura of the Sword of the Nine Hells, using it to circulate the Laws of Reincarnation once more.

Boom!

The dim world of the Six Paths reappeared.

In the end, although he managed to block that slash’s power, the Samsara Domain broke, and the aftershock sent Su Yi staggering on his feet, his blood and qi churning.

His brow furrowed. The gap in strength is too much, and that old-timer’s immortal sword is extraordinary. If I don’t go all out, there’s no way I can take him down.

“Die!” The thin old man was obviously completely enraged, and he didn’t hold back at all. He swung his sword once more, slashing through the air.

Practically simultaneously, Fu Dongli and the other terrifying existences shot through the air and charged at Su Yi. Their murderous intent shook the heavens, and they displayed power far beyond that of a Dao Integration revenant.

Furthermore, every last one of their secret treasures was incomparably wondrous, with unfathomable, unimaginable power.

In a flash, Su Yi found himself in dire straits, surrounded on all sides.

The Sword of the Human Realm clanged. After fusing with the Sword of the Nine Hells’ aura, it could defend against these terrifying opponents, but it couldn’t injure them.

The crux of the matter was that these ten-or-so old-timers were beyond the bounds of the Dao Integration Realm. Even their treasures were at the level of the Immortal Dao! The disparity was truly far too enormous.

But Su Yi didn’t let this get him down. His gaze was cold and sharp, and murderous intent filled his heart.

He’d overcome too many perilous, bitter struggles to count. Although he was in a tight spot, this wasn’t enough to kill him.

Boom!

A grand battle raged. Heaven and earth were overturned.

None of the terrifying revenants held back. All of them encroached further and further with unparalleled majesty.

In Su Yi’s shoes, any Transcendent alive today would have perished a long time ago!

Li Zhong watched the battle from a distance. Despite himself, his eyes widened. “He blocked even that?”

He knew who the others were. Aside from Fu Dongli, a descendant of immortals, the others had all been peak hegemons on the Path of Transcendence!

Even in ancient times, they were famous Cloud Soaring experts who could direct the wind and rain. Pick any one of them at random, and you’d have someone with a long record of legendary accomplishments. Even in ancient orthodoxies, they’d have been second only to true immortals.

Admittedly, they’d since been reduced to revenants, and they needed to carry treasures that obscured their presence when they fought to avoid a backlash from the Laws.

Even so, these old-timers’ strength was far beyond the bounds of the Dao Integration Realm!

That aside, every last one of their treasures was a true immortal weapon. Sure, they were damaged, but they still far surpassed the world’s other treasures!

Despite all this, they couldn’t take Su Yi, a Cosmic Enlightenment World King, down right away. How could Li Zhong be anything but surprised?

In addition to his power over reincarnation, he clearly has yet another terrifying card up his sleeves. Were that not the case, he couldn’t possibly have held out this long, Li Zhong murmured to himself. A moment later, he reached a decision. Very well. When he’s about to lose, I’ll risk my life to lend him a hand!

He’d come here on Mo Qingchou’s orders. He was to select a critical juncture to “send coal in a blizzard” and do Su Yi a favor he couldn’t refuse.

Given the circumstances, he naturally couldn’t just stand back and watch as others captured Su Yi alive.

“Everyone, let’s suppress him in one go, then strip him of his power of reincarnation!” Fu Dongli said icily. “We can divide it amongst ourselves later!”

“Got it!” the others agreed.

Their attacks sped up, becoming even more explosive. Su Yi’s situation was increasingly dire, and new wounds started appearing on his body.

But he remained as calm as ever; his expression didn’t so much as waver. Were this to come to a life-or-death struggle, he might well pay a grievous price, but he was confident that he could carve himself a path of blood!

I can’t wait any longer! If he falls into another’s hands, it’ll be too late for any talk of delivering coal in a blizzard. Li Zhong gnashed his teeth.

But just as he was about to shoot toward the distant battlefield, he stiffened, and his eyes widened. That’s...!?

A woman and a dog had silently appeared, seemingly out of nowhere.

The woman wore plain, humble clothing. She wore her long black hair up in a bun held in place with a wooden hairpin. Her skin was sallow, and her features were entirely unexceptional.

Except for her eyes, which were as clear and bright as autumn waters.

As for her dog...? It looked no different from the yellow mutts found watching over homes throughout the mundane world.

But when Li Zhong saw the woman and her dog, this Cloud Soaring Realm expert and unparalleled yao monarch actually broke out in cold sweats. Waves of shock coursed through his heart.

What’s she doing here!?

The yellow dog seemed to sense Li Zhong’s gaze, and it couldn’t help but grin, revealing its pearly white teeth. “Hush now! Don’t make a noise, and don’t flail randomly. You might hurt yourself.”

Li Zhong sank into silence, his expression shifting and uncertain.

But from beginning to end, the plainly dressed woman didn’t so much as glance at him. She carried a worn-out flower basket, and her clothes were entirely unembellished. She looked like an ordinary peasant woman.

But when they saw her and her dog, the terrifying existences surrounding Su Yi sensed her immediately.

“Celestial Red Cloud! True Monarch Xing Que!”

Numerous onlookers exclaimed, their expressions shifting dramatically. Deep-seated dread appeared on their faces.

Fu Dongli’s eyelids twitched, and his gaze was instantly solemn, but he smiled with feigned calm. “Celestial Red Cloud? Are you here for the power of reincarnation too? That works out perfectly. We're just about to capture this little wretch. When we do, we’ll make sure you get your share!”

Meanwhile, Su Yi saw Daoist Master Red Cloud and her dog too. He also sensed how afraid the powerful enemies encircling him were of her!

It seems... This woman is even more impressive than I realized, thought Su Yi. He was quite surprised.

“My mistress is here, so why haven’t you stopped attacking?” The dog, Xing Que, raised its head and tail proudly.

Those terrifying revenants couldn’t help but frown, their expressions overcast.

“Xing Que, all you and your mistress need to do is stand back and watch. I assure you you’ll get your share of the secrets of reincarnation!” Fu Dongli said with a forced smile.

As he spoke, neither he nor the others stopped. On the contrary, they attacked with increased intensity.

“Hmph!” The dog snorted in displeasure and was just about to say something when Daoist Master Red Cloud suddenly raised her hand.

Bright red immortal light suddenly shot out of the worn-out flower basket, enveloping the distant battlefield.

Boom!!!

Immortal light descended, as fiery as the radiance of a new dawn. It was full of immeasurable power, and in a flash, it sent the dozen-or-so terrifying revenants flying in different directions.

In just one attack, she’d broken through their encirclement, sending Su Yi’s enemies flying!

Her tyrannical methods impressed even Su Yi. What kind of treasure is that, to be so domineering?

“Dammit!”

“Celestial Red Cloud, what’s the meaning of this?”

“Don’t tell me you want to monopolize the secrets of reincarnation?”

Startled cries rang out.

Those terrifying existences were themselves terrified. Some of the old-timers even coughed up blood, looking utterly wretched.

“A karmic tie links me and Fellow Daoist Su. I cannot allow him to fall into your hands,” Daoist Master Red Cloud said softly.

“A karmic tie?” Fu Dongli was so furious that he couldn’t help but laugh. “All of us are after the secrets of reincarnation. Why hide what you’re really after?”

His gaze was unsightly. After all, he too was a descendant of immortals, but just now, Daoist Master Red Cloud hadn’t shown him any face at all. She’d forced him back too!

After a moment’s silence, Daoist Master Red Cloud swept her gaze across Fu Dongli and the others, then said softly, “Scram before I lose my temper!”

Her words were soft and understated, yet tyrannical to the extreme.

Fu Dongli’s expression was instantly incomparably unsightly. He would never have guessed Daoist Master Red Cloud would be this impolite!

“She told you to scram. What, are you deaf?” berated the dog.

The thin old man took a deep breath, then gnashed his teeth. “Celestial Red Cloud, I trust that we of Illusory Sword Immortal Tower aren’t the only ones who can’t possibly agree to this. There’s no way my fellow Daoists will accept this either!

“I’m not afraid to tell you that a group of our seniors, including our ninth leader, Ling Yuexu, will soon awaken from dormancy! You...”

But before he could finish, Daoist Master Red Cloud furrowed her brow. Another streak of bright red immortal light shot out of the flower basket.

Boom!

Immortal light descended, and although the thin old man defended himself with all his might, he couldn’t block even a single attack. Its power sent him flying, leaving his body in tatters and almost destroying him.

He looked so wretched that the others couldn’t help but gasp. They visibly lost their composure.

“I’ll give you three breaths of time,” Daoist Master Red Cloud said calmly and coldly. “Leave, or die.”

Fu Dongli and the others’ expressions shifted, but in the end, they relented. All of them left in a fury.

“Red Cloud! There’s absolutely no way I’ll let what happened today rest!” Fu Dongli’s hate-filled voice emanated from afar.

Daoist Master Red Cloud ignored him. Instead, she walked up to Su Yi and took a jug of wine from her flower basket. “This is a jug of the wine I brewed recently. Have a taste and see how you like it.”

Su Yi was briefly stunned. He accepted the jug, but then, he sighed.
