Chapter 257: Drinking, Laughing, Killing—The Netherworld Wants to Slay a Martial Saint (Part 2)
His rank was unblockable!
Escape!
The Su family cultivators scattered like monkeys fleeing a fallen tree, each running for their lives.
They frantically dashed in all directions, desperate to escape.
Huang Jian Jiu's hair fluttered, and in his crimson eyes, a hint of disdain appeared, as if he looked down upon them.
This was the nature of the aristocratic offspring—no better than pigs and dogs!
Huang Jian Jiu's sword energy surged, and with a single strike, he suppressed them, like a mighty river flowing over them, a waterfall of sword energy engulfing them.
All the Su family cultivators were enveloped by his sword energy.
Huang Jian Jiu landed on the ground, his sword pointing towards the sky, a victorious smile on his face.
He pried open the cork of a wine gourd covered in sword marks with his thumb and began to drink.
He was laughing.
He was killing.
...
...
Boom! In the night sky, thunder roared, rumbling and churning.
Temple Guardian Bureau Mansion.
The officials stationed at various strange temples in Heavenly Origin Dao City were reviewing reports, analyzing the situations at each temple.
Suddenly, thunder rumbled, as if a sword intent was about to tear through the night sky!
Although it was subtle, as if veiled by some powerful and mysterious force, Yuwen Wenlong's eyes, accustomed to sword qi, suddenly narrowed.
His figure flickered, appearing on the roof of a Temple Guardian Bureau office building.
Perched on the flying eaves, his robe fluttering, his tall and sturdy body outlined with lines.
The diffused blood qi seemed to merge with the heavens and earth, transforming into howling smoke.
"This is... the strange temple's temple deity sword intent?!"
"Who is it?"
Yuwen Wenlong's feet landed heavily, and the void seemed to ripple and tremble.
His powerful body pushed through layers of white waves, moving as fast as a black thunderbolt under the moonlight, swiftly traversing the ground.
In the southeast corner of Heavenly Origin Dao City, a strange temple stood.
The Temple Guardian Bureau had set up numerous outposts here, with white tents decorating the surroundings of the temple shrouded in black mist, like white flowers.
A cordon was set up, isolating the area involving the strange temple, mist, and threshold.
This was the third strange temple of the Five Elders' rank in Heavenly Origin Dao City, under the jurisdiction of the Temple Guardian Bureau.
The Strange Temple of Six Desires and Demon Slayer Lu Xuan Sword Immortal!
As soon as Yuwen Wenlong appeared, the numerous officials guarding the temple rushed over.
"Governor Yuwen!"
The officials stood in neat rows, saluting with clasped fists.
Yuwen Wenlong's eyes narrowed, and a hint of strangeness flashed in them. "Where is Governor Feng?"
"Governor Feng is still stationed in the strange threshold, and hasn't returned yet. Should I send someone to the threshold to summon him back?" one of the officials asked with a fist salute.
Yuwen Wenlong waved his hand. "No need."
"I just sensed a sharp sword intent, very similar to Lu Xuan Sword Immortal's sword intent, so I came to the strange temple to take a look."
"Now it seems, it shouldn't be..."
Suddenly, as Yuwen Wenlong finished speaking, a rumbling sound echoed.
The strange mist in front of the temple seemed to be split in half by an invisible blade.
A tall and robust figure, enveloped in dragon-blood-colored knife light from head to toe, slowly walked out.
With each step, it seemed to provoke the heavens and earth to rumble and shake, the sound of their footsteps synchronizing with the beating of people's hearts.
Even Yuwen Wenlong couldn't help but feel a stinging sensation, a slight irritation.
"Feng Zhiqi!"
Yuwen Wenlong's heart trembled slightly, and the smoke of blood qi surrounding him seemed to be on the verge of dispersing.
The fourth realm of the Martial Saint, opening the Human Elixir, the Qi Sea, the Mountain Path, and the Heavenly Gate. Each realm breakthrough is a transformation that surpasses the limits of the human body, transcending the mundane.
Feng Zhiqi had been stationed in the Sword Immortal Threshold for years, and his strength was extremely powerful. He was the foundation sent by the Temple Guardian Bureau to guard Heavenly Origin Dao City.
Feng Zhiqi was a peerless martial artist in the third realm of the Martial Saint, having opened the Mountain Path. Some people were still at the foot of the mountain, while others were halfway up. But Feng Zhiqi... was about to reach the summit!
"Governor Yuwen, your perception is correct..."
"That sword intent is indeed the Sword Immortal's sword intent, which the little guy borrowed from the temple deity."
Feng Zhiqi's voice was deep and rough, like the sound of a resounding bell.
"It seems that the little guy has chosen to use..."
Feng Zhiqi's eyes were deep, gazing in the direction of the Su family. Vaguely, he seemed to see a huge chessboard spinning in the heavens and earth, blocking all attempts at investigation and sight.
However, the Sword Immortal's sword intent was too intense, like a blazing sun, piercing through the heaven-earth chessboard.
Of course, this was also because the manipulator of the heaven-earth chessboard had relaxed their mental state at this moment.
Yuwen Wenlong's eyebrows raised. "Huang Jianjiu?"
"Yes, it's him."
Yuwen Wenlong took a deep breath.
He also looked in the direction of the Su family.
"He actually dared to confront the Su family alone?"
His perception expanded, and the next moment, his expression changed slightly.
"Wow, he even invited a star killer from Hunter Pavilion, and even Fang Hanshu took action for him... It seems that recently, Fang Hanshu's ban on Huang Jianjiu was just a show for the Su family?"
"Blocking Su Daoling, stopping Su Leibao, but in the Su family mansion, there's also Su Wenxi, a one-open Martial Saint. Although he's a newly ascended Martial Saint, he's still a Martial Saint!"
"Even with the Sword Immortal's sword intent, Huang Jianjiu's body, which isn't proficient in horizontal tempering, will likely be shattered by the sword intent."
"Even if he can bear the Sword Immortal's sword intent, he'll only be able to fight Su Wenxi, the one-open Martial Saint, on equal terms."
"Isn't it just a big fuss?"
Yuwen Wenlong frowned, feeling puzzled.
Huang Jianjiu's actions were impulsive and foolish.
Suddenly, Yuwen Wenlong also sensed the enormous chessboard spinning in the sky.
His body trembled slightly.
"The Netherworld?!"
"Did Huang Jianjiu also invite the Netherworld to stop Su Wenxi, the Martial Saint?"
Yuwen Wenlong took a deep breath, and a faint light flashed in his eyes.
"Can the Netherworld... stop Su Wenxi?"
...
...
Boom! An extremely dense ink-colored city collapsed and pressed down.
Su Wenxi felt darkness before his eyes, as if his five senses and six perceptions had been stripped away in an instant! "What is this?!"
He roared, and an extremely powerful blood qi surged from his body, shaking and shattering the thick ink-colored mist around him. A vast sound wave swept through the air, centered on his body.
His feet stomped firmly on the solid ground, and the feeling of solidity eased his heart.
His five senses and six perceptions immediately returned, and the Martial Saint's connection with the heavens and earth reappeared in his consciousness.
Cold intent rolled in Su Wenxi's eyes, and his muscles bulged as he clenched his fists. Veins popped out on his back, and his spine glowed with three divine seeds shining brilliantly, like three hearts beating wildly.
The sound of rain filled the air.
Ink-colored raindrops fell from a height of ten thousand feet, landing on his forehead and shoulders, but they were all evaporated by his scorching blood qi.
"Where am I?"
(End of Chapter)Su Wenxi looked around, and a sea of ink filled his vision, everything was ink-colored, like a landscape painting.
At this moment... was he inside the painting?!
"The methods of the Netherworld?"
Su Wenxi's heart trembled slightly.
He hated the Netherworld, and as the head of the Su family, he had been dealing with some recent headaches. The deaths of Su He Lian and Su Huai Ming had significant consequences.
One was the position of Honorary Elder of the Outer Sect of the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, which the Su family had acquired through great efforts. With Su He Lian's death, this position was abolished, and all those resources were wasted.
Su Huai Ming's death also greatly impacted the Su family's Divine Carving industry!
"The Netherworld..."
Su Wenxi gritted his teeth, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Suddenly, a terrifying sound tore through the air, and a gigantic black shadow appeared abruptly above his head.
Kacha, kacha, kacha!!!
Accompanied by the clashing of parts, the rumbling of spiritual wood, and powerful gusts of wind, an overwhelming force descended like a mountain collapsing.
"Automaton beast?!"
"A lower-rank automaton beast of the Five Elders, comparable to a Martial Saint?!"
Su Wenxi raised his head and immediately saw the Blood Sun Nine Deity Golden Monkey, towering at five meters tall, rushing towards him like a dark cloud covering the sky.
Terrifying energy flashed and surged, and on the pounding fists, there seemed to be an overwhelming force that could topple mountains.
Countless air currents were swept away, crushed into nothingness.
Su Wenxi's brows furrowed, his body trembled, and his five fingers clenched as his arms stretched out, transforming into a soaring eagle.
This was Divine Lineage Martial Arts, and it had reached the pinnacle of perfection, the state of transformation.
It was exquisite and unparalleled, a fusion with the heavens and earth.
A fierce and unyielding aura soared into the sky, shaking the air like a giant wave in a great river.
Boom!!!
Su Wenxi did not retreat but advanced, and with accelerated speed, his fist left a trace, as if there was a human-sized pill core violently pulsating within, with a shocking crack visible on its surface.
Within the crack, an incredibly vast and powerful human essence surged forth.
Merging with the true aura, it formed a higher-level energy, surpassing the strength of the Three Flowers True Aura and becoming the Primordial Energy.
Like a rainbow piercing the sun, Su Wenxi, the Martial Saint, unleashed his boundless aura.
His fist collided with the Golden Monkey, creating an earth-shattering impact.
Dong!!!
In the next instant, Su Wenxi's fist collided with the Golden Monkey's fist.
It was like a collision between the earth and the moon.
The entire Ink City trembled violently at this moment, and the thick ink mist around the city exploded like a raging wave.
It was as if hundreds of air explosions were erupting simultaneously from within the city.
Boom!!!
The Golden Monkey's arms, made of spiritual wood and bearing thousands of intricate mechanisms, shattered into countless fine wood chips under the impact of the Martial Saint's furious punch, scattering like countless cow hairs.
Su Wenxi's face was filled with rage.
He had been dragged by the Netherworld to this incomprehensible place, and Huang Jian Jiu, who had fallen into the Corpse Deity Sect and transformed into a Demi-God Corpse, held a Sword Immortal's sword intent...
In the Su family... wouldn't he be invincible?
However, Su Wenxi wasn't overly worried because the Su family's foundation wasn't solely dependent on him as a Martial Saint.
There were also Su Daoling and Su Leibao.
At this moment, Su Wenxi's punch had shattered the Golden Monkey's arm, and his eyes flashed with lightning.
"Spiritual wood material is just average."
"It's indeed a deformed product, as you said."
Su Wenxi had keen insight and immediately identified the Golden Monkey's flaws.
The material was the biggest limitation for automaton beasts, and even with intricate mechanisms, it wasn't enough to compensate.
Su Wenxi's sharp gaze swept across the entire Ink City, but the dense ink mist churned, and he was horrified to find that his divine sense was greatly weakened within the city.
Moreover, in this strange city, he couldn't draw upon divine essence from the outside world.
Within this city...
There was no divine essence!
"A world that isolates divine essence?!"
"What is the Netherworld's origin?!"
The more he sensed, the more shocked he became. Since the birth of the Strange Temple, divine essence seemed to have permeated every corner of the world.
It was impossible for a place to lack divine essence, unless this city wasn't in the mortal realm.
How could this be?!
Li Che, wearing the Ox Demon mask, blended into the darkness. He witnessed the collision between the Golden Monkey and Su Wenxi, which seemed to have no effect on Su Wenxi.
This Martial Saint had opened a crack in his flesh, releasing his essence, which merged into the Primordial Energy, an unparalleled force.
The Golden Monkey... was ultimately a lower-rank automaton beast of the Five Elders, forcefully elevated through Blood Qi Glow.
Adjusting his hat, Li Che's towering body trembled slightly, and his nine thick tendons vibrated incessantly.
"Indeed... the Golden Monkey's material isn't good enough."
"It's indeed the deformed product you mentioned."
Suddenly, he lifted his head.
Beneath the Ox Demon mask, his eyes flashed with lightning.
"But, so what?"
His heart stirred.
The Golden Monkey's shattered arm, with countless spiritual wood fragments swirling, suddenly transformed into the arm that Su Wenxi had destroyed through Blood Qi Glow.
On the Blood Qi Glow, countless Ten Thousand Phenomena Divine Seals intertwined and spun.
The Golden Monkey roared like a cannon.
It swung its arm again, slamming it towards Su Wenxi.
At the same time, Li Che, wearing the Ox Demon mask, raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
Behind the Golden Monkey, a figure clad in golden armor emerged, holding a golden eighteen-foot serpent spear. It landed on its toes, and the air surged as its eyes shone with golden light, like a wrathful deity.
The air in the entire world seemed to pour into the golden armored general's body, and the energy surged higher and higher.
A terrifying giant python coiled out from behind the general.
A terrifying spear point landed.
The entire sky seemed to sink at that moment.
Boom, boom!
Two terrifying air explosions.
You Liqing had detonated the Divine Seeds of the two Unusual Doors without hesitation.
Su Wenxi's expression froze slightly.
This... was a Netherworld death warrior?
Who would self-destruct their Divine Seed upon meeting someone?
Feeling the terrifying and insane energy of the Unusual Doors' explosion, Su Wenxi clenched his fist in mid-air, his eyes bursting with dazzling light.
Within them, there was a hint of contemptuous fury.
"The Netherworld seems... to want to kill me?!"
"To slaughter a Martial Saint?!"
