Chapter 849: Cleaning Up All Foes
“How could it be you!?” The Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow’s eyes widened as it recognized that tall, upright figure.
It was the same young man he’d encountered a few days prior in Red Cloud Ridge!
There, the young man had undergone a grand, taboo Tribulation of Spiritual Revolution. The crow had even attempted to ambush him.
However, the crow would never have guessed that the young man in blue was the expert who’d appeared?above Ziluo City like a god or immortal, cutting down a group of Emperors!
“Little crow, let’s have ourselves a?nice chat later,” said Su Yi. He was already approaching, and Moonlit Shadow still shone like the radiant moon, gushing with clear radiance.
“Quick, stop him!” shouted the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow.
Boom!
The Sinful Ghost Monk and Child of Sin attacked together.
The monk activated his skull prayer beads. Tentacle-like protrusions shot out of the lotus platforms of sin beneath his feet, surrounding Su Yi.
The infant took out a bronze weaver’s shuttle, which flew through the air surrounded by the heinous power of sin.
Both evil spirits were utterly terrifying entities strong enough to threaten Profound Serenity Emperors.
But Su Yi didn’t even look at them. He just swung his sword.
Boom!
As sword qi swept forth, countless blood-red tendrils exploded, and the skulls of the prayer beads exploded, one by one. The weaver’s shuttle shrouded in the power of sin ripped into pieces as if it were made of paper.
This was complete suppression!
Shortly after, dazzling and indomitable sword qi enveloped both the Sinful Ghost Monk and the Child of Sin, incinerating them both.
These evil spirits were formed of the most malevolent energies of the Netherworld. Ordinary Emperors had no hope of killing them.
Yet Su Yi had erased them from this world in a single slash!
The terrifying power of that attack startled and terrified even the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow.
Even the Dark Vassal, who was still attacking the Bureau of Adjudication’s defensive formation in a mad frenzy, realized how severe the problem was. He whipped around and said woodenly, “Crow, take over attacking the formation.”
As he spoke, he activated the blood-red seal and directed its power against Su Yi.
Boom!
The blood-red seal instantly expanded into a mountain of blood covered in strange, shining talisman markings. Its vicious aura was unimaginably terrifying.
Earlier, before passing through the eastern gates, the Dark Vassal had ridden in atop?this very mountain. Even the thin old man, the Netherworld River Dragon Monarch, had been intimidated.
It was easy to imagine how terrifying the Dark Vassal was.
Su Yi was also well aware that the Dark Vassals of the City of the Wrongfully Dead’s Calamity Ridge were extraordinary.
They were born of the souls of deceased Emperors, and they controlled the unbelievable powers of chaos and calamities. In the ancient era, they’d been the servants of the Netherworld King!
The Dark Vassal was strong enough to kill the likes of Profound Serenity Emperors Qu Changhen and Hong Zhiwen with ease.
It was no exaggeration to say that with the Emperors currently at their disposal, the Cui Family could forget about staving off the Dark Vassal’s attacks!
Alas, the Dark Vassal had encountered Su Yi.
Clang!
Even as Su Yi pondered, he leaped into the fray.
The Rejoicing Sword Sutra, Plucking Suns and Moons.
I have a sword to pluck moon and stars. All the heavens’ light is within my grasp!
A seemingly boundless sea of sword qi surged overhead, and a sun and moon of sword qi rose into the air, each dazzlingly bright and radiating a majesty that shook heaven and earth.
The sea of sword qi sent the ten-thousand-foot blood-colored mountain flying. Then, the sun and moon ruthlessly suppressed it.
Boom!!!
The resulting impact reverberated throughout heaven and earth. Gashes appeared throughout the talisman markings covering the massive mountain, and more than half of it shattered and fell off.
The Dark Vassal staggered backward, his grayish eyes full of bewilderment. It seemed he’d realized something.
“You… You remind me of that….”
But before he could finish his sentence, the dazzling sword qi filling the air descended, shattering the blood-colored mountain, blanketing heaven and earth, and flooding toward the Dark Vassal.
The wave of sword qi extended as far as the eye could see, stretching in all directions, inestimably boundless!”
“Run, crow! Hurry!” the Dark Vassal shouted, and his hands formed a seal.
A dark windstorm manifested of calamity appeared in the sky, blanketing heaven and earth. Countless inauspicious auras were mixed in with the winds.
It was like the descent of the apocalypse, intent on destroying the entire world!
Su Yi’s eyebrows rose.
The Laws of Calamities!
It really is that rare Grand Dao of the Netherworld found in Calamity Ridge.
The Dark Vassals were so strong precisely because they controlled the power of Calamity.
Were an attack like this to hit a Profound Serenity Emperor, even trace contamination would lead to that calamitous power invading their body, corroding both their flesh and their soul. Ultimately, this power would reduce them to ask!
Whoosh!
Moonlit Shadow burst with dazzling clear light. Then, Su Yi raised his hand and pressed down on the?air.
It was as if a giant, invisible hand were suppressing the black windstorm manifested of the power of calamity. It suddenly stopped, frozen in place.
Then, countless minute fragments of sword intent formed a whirlpool of sword qi that circulated like mad.
Bang bang bang!
The black windstorm shattered and collapsed, bit by bit.
But the whirlpool of sword qi’s?power was entirely undiminished. It continued ahead, ripping through the skies and slamming into the Dark Vassal.
The Dark Vassal’s body instantly shattered, then dispersed into black smoke.
However, before the smoke dissipated, Su Yi took out the Allheaven Blood Furnace and suppressed it.
Boom!
The Allheaven Blood Furnace expanded to a thousand feet tall. Blood-colored misty light filled the air, gathering all of the black smoke into the furnace.
In the time it took to snap his fingers, he’d suppressed and killed the Dark Vassal!
He’d even gathered up the power of calamity it had left behind.
“Dammit!”
When it watched the Dark Vassal die, the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow’s eyes bulged, and its wingers shone with strange, icy luster.
Su Yi wasted no time talking. He appeared out of nowhere and reached for the crow.
His fingers were like the bars of a cage, surging with monstrous power and radiance, as if his palm could envelop all of creation.
This was a supreme secret Buddhist legacy—a Buddhist Ground in the Palm of My Hand!
Unleashed through the cultivation base of his past life, it was like the descent of an immeasurably grand Buddhist territory. Even Emperors would struggle to escape such power.
Su Yi was extremely interested in the crow’s origins, as well as the power it wielded. He naturally wouldn’t kill it.
But against all expectations, with a flash of dark light, the crow escaped the bounds of the Buddhist Ground in the Palm of My Hand and fled!
The inauspicious bird of mysterious origins beat its black wings and shouted, “How dare you ruin our plans! You’ll pay for what you’ve done, no matter who you are!”
Boom!
Before its voice finished echoing through the air, the skies around the crow collapsed.
Sword qi surged from both above and below.
Grayish flames blazed on the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow, and taboo runes flashed into being, condensing into a mysterious illusory wheel.
Then——
Bang!!
The sword qi fell apart.
Su Yi’s gaze was instantly serious. The wheel condensed of countless taboo glyphs emanated the energy fluctuations of an extremely strange Law. It obviously didn’t belong to the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow!
Just as the bird was about to flee…
Su Yi snorted coldly. His fingers formed a seal, and he suddenly swung his sword.
Boom!
One sword mountain after another surged into being, overlapping, with peaks as sharp as fangs. The mountains sealed the skies around the ruins of the Bureau of Adjudication off completely.
The sword mountains manifested the five elements, each giving rise to another. They directly locked down the entire area.
Great Five Elements Suppression Domain Sword!
When Su Yi unleashed this supreme legacy with the cultivation base of his past life, it was powerful enough to destroy Profound Serenity Emperors with ease!
Boom!
Sword qi rumbled and boomed. Radiance interwove, and indomitable sword intent swept forth. The Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow couldn’t help but cry out in anger and alarm.
“Dammit!” The inauspicious bird re-used an old trick, lighting up with pale gray flames. Numerous taboo runes manifested a strange wheel around it.
In the blink of an eye——
The entire stretch of heaven and earth rumbled as destructive power erupted.
The Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow burst apart, inch by inch. In a flash, it disappeared into the boundless flood of sword qi.
“Just you wait! I’ll be back to settle the score!”
Its maddened, vicious shriek reverberated throughout the tumultuous landscape. Its voice was full of loathing.
Su Yi’s brow furrowed slightly.
When the dust cleared, everything around the Bureau of Adjudication had been reduced to scorched earth. The nearby ancient buildings had collapsed, then shattered into tiny fragments, as if they’d been erased.
Su Yi stepped forward, then picked a black feather off the ground.
It shone with cold luster and flecks of blood.
“No wonder it got away. An even more terrifying existence is standing behind it…” Su Yi’s eyes flashed.
Earlier, the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow should have either died or been left with heavy injuries. It shouldn’t have been able to escape.
But at the last moment, the inauspicious bird unleashed a taboo legacy, getting away by the skin of its teeth through a dirty trick.
This secret art was much like the Body-Double Talismans others used to escape disaster. It looked?as if he’d killed the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow, but in truth, it had pulled a fast one on him.
They blocked a tenth of my power at the peak of my past life. I don’t know who’s backing the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow, but they’re probably a Profound Unity Emperor…?
As Su Yi pondered, he tossed?the black feather into the Allheaven Blood Furnace.
This was one of the crow’s Natal True Feathers. Although it was damaged and its source power had been destroyed, Su Yi could still learn a lot from it.
Crunch!
It was then that the Dao-Bearing Stone in Moonlit Shadow’s hilt shattered.
Exactly ten snaps of the finger had passed.
In that incredibly brief interval, Su Yi had slain an entire group of Emperors in front of the Cui Family’s estate, appeared before the ruins of the Bureau of Adjudication, exterminated the Sinful Ghost Monk and Child of Sin, killed the Dark Vassal, and severely injured the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow!
With that, the power Su Yi had left behind in his past life dissipated completely.
For a moment, Su Yi felt a bit dazed.
As if he’d gone from a deity to an ordinary mortal all at once. The disparity was enormous.
But a moment later, Su Yi laughed dryly and muttered to himself, “When I step into the Profound Dao in this lifetime, I’ll obtain power far beyond that of my previous life!”
He didn’t yearn for the power of his past life.
Were that the case, why bother reincarnating to cultivate anew?
Su Yi stood amidst the darkness, hands behind his back. His gait was leisurely as he strode into the distance.
The fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, the night of the millennial Lantern Festival.
Su Yi wielded Moonlit Shadow, executing a group of Emperors and destroying an army of evil spirits. He’d cleansed Ziluo City of all invaders!
