Shen Yushi cried out but a gust of flame spewed from his mouth, accompanied by charred powder. Although his mystical skill was strong, how could he withstand the flames burning his internal organs?
Burned by the endless flames, he closed his eyes and smashed his head onto the floor of the secret chamber. "Please … please … give me a quick death … Argh!"
Another gust of flame rose from his body.
His body convulsed a few times, moaning sounds coming from his throat.
Suddenly, with a swoosh, the flame left his body.
There was not even a wisp of smoke left. It circled in the air and turned back into Yun Yang, landing on the ground.
However, the moment he landed, Yun Yang could not stand steadily and staggered, his face as pale as a sheet.
Obviously, he had turned into his fire form and fought with all his might, successfully defeating his enemy. The price he had paid was not small, but it was fortunate that it was worth it. After all, he had managed to keep his target here!
Actually, Yun Yang had never thought that he would lose this battle. Although he knew that his opponent's cultivation base was higher than the sixth peak that he had just broken through to, perhaps by more than a level, he still had absolute confidence that he could defeat his enemy.
As Yun Yang's cultivation base improved, the power of his various forms had improved tremendously as well. As long as he played his trump card, he would definitely lose, even if he were to face a ninth peak expert.
What truly troubled Yun Yang was the fact that the gap between their actual abilities still existed. Victory was victory, but he could not make his target stay!
Just like what Shen Yushi had said, there were plenty of secret passages in this secret chamber that could be used to escape. With his opponent's cultivation base, he only needed a chance to escape.
Facing his opponent's cultivation base that was more than a level higher than his, Yun Yang could not stop him at all.
Once Shen Yushi escaped, the secret might be leaked. At the very least, he would alert his enemy and cause endless trouble.
Therefore, Yun Yang had intentionally created such a scene. Firstly, it was to probe for information, but it was only a side effect. His real goal was to get within five feet of Shen Yushi!
Only in this way could he have absolute confidence and a hundred percent chance of victory!
Indeed, he had succeeded in one go.
In spite of it, Yun Yang was exhausted.
On the ground, Shen Yushi had been burnt to a crisp; his eyes had been burnt into two black holes. If an ordinary person had been in this state, he would have died more than ten times over. However, Shen Yushi's cultivation base was so profound that he was still breathing. He was still groaning involuntarily, his body convulsing.
With a wave of Yun Yang's hand, a gust of icy wind blew against his face.
With a flick of his hand, Shen of Shen Yushi stopped moving.
When he opened his mouth, black smoke came out of his mouth, and he coughed weakly.
Of black smoke escaped from his mouth as he coughed.
As he coughed, black smoke came out of his mouth.
"An expert at the Eighth Peak of Mystical Qi is indeed extraordinary. He's still alive even in this state! "Shen Yue Shen Shen.
Yun Yang said faintly, "Shen Yushi, can you still hear me?"
Shen Yushi's mind was already muddled, but the last stubborn thought in his mind converged into disbelief. "No … impossible … impossible … how could it be … Supreme Flame …"
His voice was weak, but the incredulity and disbelief in his voice were still as clear as ever.
With just a glance, Yun Yang was certain that Sir Shen's consciousness was almost gone from the burn. Now, there was only a lingering sense of obsession left.
What puzzled Yun Yang was, "Why is he so sure that I can't be Supreme Flame?
He has never doubted that I'm one of the Nine Supremes even though I've been here for so long! "
This could be said to be extremely unusual.
After all, his fire manifestation attack was Supreme Flame's Fiery Star Technique, it was not a lie!
"How can it be … Supreme Flame … I … I watched them die with my own eyes … I did it with my own hands …" Shen Yushi's voice was weak. Even now, he was still in intense disbelief.
Yun Yang suddenly jerked and turned around abruptly.
Looking at Shen Yushi's dying body, an unprecedented murderous aura suddenly burst forth.
An extremely intense and violent hatred suddenly surged out of him.
Watched them die with his own eyes?
Personally?
Yun Yang raised his saber angrily. "If so, why do you still want an afterlife?"
The Divine Edge fell with a swoosh!
The moment the saber fell, Emmie's energy was already attached to the Divine Edge. With a swoosh, Shen Yushi's charred head tumbled to the ground. Just as his soul energy left his body, it was struck by a ball of green light and vanished without a trace.
His soul was annihilated!
His soul was destroyed!
He was beyond redemption!
"Personally! With my own eyes! "
Yun Yang sucked in a deep breath, still feeling his body trembling.
The dead man in front of him was the first of the masked men Yun Yang had found during the battle at Tianxuan Cliff!
No wonder he had never doubted that Yun Yang was one of the Nine Supremes.
Only those who had watched the Nine Supremes die with their own eyes and killed the Nine Supremes with their own hands could have such thoughts and such confidence!
"Damn it!"
Yun Yang panted and only managed to calm himself down after a long time. Suddenly, he laughed into the sky. "Brothers, I've found one! I've killed one! "
His emotions were surging.
"I only hate the fact that I don't have the ability to capture him alive. If I could … I would definitely know more clues … and I'll work hard to make him live a long life!"
Yun Yang gritted his teeth and abruptly kicked Shen Yushi's corpse into smithereens.
His bones were crushed into dust!
Death was the most important thing. Normally, people would not do something like torturing a corpse. Usually, Yun Yang would not even bother to do it. However, Yun Yang hated that he could only kick Shen Yushi once. He wished that he could resurrect Shen Yushi and kill him again and again!
He wanted to let him experience the feeling of being crushed into pieces over and over again!
Even so, his hatred was not appeased!
"Hoo …"
After a long time, Yun Yang walked slowly to the table and sat down.
There must be something more to this secret chamber!
Yun Yang forced himself to calm down and focus his attention on the table. The surface of the table was made of a flat piece of white jade, suppressing the papers and other items underneath.
Yun Yang passed the piece of white jade to Emmie.
Underneath the white jade was a piece of worn-out Xuan beast skin. It was unknown what it was made of, but it looked like an incomplete map. As far as the eye could see, it was covered in smoke and fire. It must have been very old, at least quite a few years old.
Yun Yang picked up the piece of leather and tried to tug at it with his hand, but surprisingly, it did not budge. He could not help but feel puzzled and used more strength to tug at it, but it still did not budge.
More strength, more strength …
Even when Yun Yang had exerted his sixth peak cultivation base, the strange skin did not budge at all!
"What skin is this?" Yun Yang was shocked.
With Yun Yang's current physical strength, even the skin of a ninth level mystical beast would not be able to withstand it. The continuous pulling just now would have torn it into countless pieces. However, this piece of skin was not damaged at all. There was not even a trace of it being stretched!
Yun Yang was greatly moved. This piece of skin was already a rare treasure; the content recorded on it must be even more valuable. Upon closer inspection, he realized that this piece of skin was only a corner of the entire map. The edges were very smooth as if it had been cut by a sharp blade …
"A weapon that can cut such a tough skin must be no ordinary weapon!"
"What would be the content recorded on the skin?"
"A treasure map?"
"A mysterious place?"
"Or perhaps … some cave abode?"
"An ancient ruin?"
Yun Yang's imagination ran wild as his imagination ran wild.
"Could this be what Shen Yushi called … a chance to ascend to heaven in a single bound?"
However, it was still possible for him to find the place marked on the map with only a small portion of the map.
Since it could not be turned into a useful resource immediately, he would put it aside for now. Yun Yang tucked the piece of skin into his robe. After all, there were still many follow-up steps to follow up on. There would be plenty of time to study this strange piece of skin in the future.
What came next were some handwritten notes from Shen Yushan. He was very cautious in his actions, actually using codenames to write everything.
The information made Yun Yang's stomach churn.
"A certain day of a certain month, ninth day of the new year, accepted a job from the east; received seven hundred thousand silver taels; codenamed 7,938 mission completed; reported in autumn …"
"A certain day of a certain month …"
Similar information was written all over the page.
Yun Yang's eyes were filled with circles as he read.
There was only a stack of paper on the last page. The top of it read, "Sixteen sides prepared, ten sides ambushed, nine sides attacked; driven into Tianxuan Cliff; four sides attacked, heaven and earth reversed, heaven and earth reversed; two hundred and forty mystical cultivators worked together to kill the Nine Supremes, eliminating future troubles. This is to be remembered; the might of your reign. Spring, summer, autumn, and winter, for generations to come. "
These words were obviously about the Four Seasons Tower's attack on the Nine Supremes.
Yun Yang gritted his teeth and moved on to the next page; the content was exactly the same.
The handwriting on each page was clear; each stroke was serious and meticulous.
Shen Yushi must have been extremely proud of this matter; he actually used the content on this piece of paper to practice his handwriting more than once.
The dozens of records that followed were the same.
Then, the content changed. "This lowly official is only giving advice and liaising with the upper and lower levels, doing my best for the tower master for generations to come. I dare not claim credit."
Then, it was a series of repetitions.
This fellow was a hardcore fan of the Four Seasons Tower!
"Does plotting against the Nine Supremes and plotting against them give you such pleasure?"
Yun Yang was infuriated. He smashed the two thick stacks of paper with a slap and pulled open the other drawers of the table to check them carefully.
In one of the drawers, he found a complete route map. However, he could not confirm where it was because there were no markings on it. Looking at the folded marks, it seemed to have been opened and folded many times.
Yun Yang acutely felt that the map seemed to be rather useful, so he put it away carefully as well.
Seeing that there were no other clues, Yun Yang began to plunder without restraint.
Yun Yang was shocked by his loot when he got to the end.
