Boom! A hundred-zhang-deep pit appeared on the ground.
Amidst his wild laughter, Kuang Tianyou shot up into the sky, piercing through the layers of clouds until he reached the end of the horizon.
The surging astral wind slashed at his body, but it actually didn't leave a single wound on him.
He looked down at the Nine Regions. Under the gaze of countless eyes in the sky, he did not have the slightest fear and said to himself,
"This is my territory!"
Regardless of whether it was the Banyan Tree King in the south or the Great Xia Royal Court in the north, he did not place any of them in his eyes. Even the biggest target of this trip, the White Bone Successor, could be destroyed with a flip of his hand.
This was not arrogance, but absolute confidence.
He had already gone through four heavenly tribulations. According to the common ghouls, he would be the "Corpse Emperor". However, he didn't think that this was an honorific for a real zombie.
The strongest cultivator in the Jiuzhou World was only at the peak of the third heavenly tribulation. The difference of one major realm was like the difference between heaven and earth. Moreover, there was a huge gap in power between the third and fourth heavenly tribulations.
It wasn't without reason that the Buddhists called cultivators who had overcome four heavenly tribulations "Advance Fruit". On the path to becoming an immortal and a god, those who hadn't overcome four heavenly tribulations were simply unqualified.
Even if there were thousands of great cultivators working together, they would still be no match for him. Just find a powerful Corpse Emperor in the Hungry Ghost Realm, and this mission would not be too difficult. His only opponent was this world.
However, the Corpse Gods and Ghost Immortals who ruled over the Hungry Ghost realm were determined to win this battle. Even if the risk was minuscule, they had to nip it in the bud.
They did not even wait for the Hungry Ghost Realm to completely devour the Nine Provinces. They directly sent a "zombie" that had survived four heavenly tribulations into the Nine Provinces. Even if he borrowed the power of the Hungry Ghost Realm. In order to create this deceptive black coffin, he had paid a huge price. It could be said that he was determined to obtain it.
Kuang Tianyou took a deep breath and bared his fangs. His aura continued to rise, pushing aside the immeasurable astral winds. For a moment, the weather changed, as if a peerless demon had descended. His eyes shone with a faint golden light, carrying a divine aura.
"What's that?"
The Banyan Tree King also sensed something. He had never felt such a terrifying aura in the Nine States. That was definitely not something a Corpse King or Ghost King could possess. He changed his mind. The invisible Laws of Heaven and Earth were like a huge net, entangling towards the source of the aura.
However, the moment he got close, the laws of heaven and earth lost their effect, as if it was a blind spot.
Kuang Tianyou immediately noticed. He glanced towards the south. "He's not even a World God. You still dare to deal with me? How reckless! "
Anger flashed across his face. The backlash of the world was not a joke. If he was not careful, his soul would be destroyed. Even if a True God or True Immortal descended … It was also impossible for them to directly fight against a world. Otherwise, they wouldn't have sent him down.
However, his mood immediately became better. Now that even the laws of the world could not do anything to him, what was there to be afraid of? This trip down was simply an outing, and he even picked up a domain for free.
His lips parted as he said soundlessly, "Wait until I kill the White Bone heir. If your will hasn't been devoured by the Hungry Ghost realm, then I'll come and kill you!"
These words were like thunder exploding above Towering Sky City, and the pressure contained within them caused the Demon Kings to tremble. The waves of the forest rose and fell.
The Banyan Tree King sighed in his heart. Fusing himself with the world seemed to be a huge mistake. He would have been better off ascending earlier.
Once the Hungry Ghost realm completely devoured the Nine Provinces, the others might still be able to turn into ghouls and struggle at death's door, but he would definitely die. His enemy was the will of the entire Hungry Ghost realm, and he could already feel his consciousness being corroded.
Kuang Tianyou broke through the layers of astral winds, actually moving faster than light. He flew past the Green Province in the blink of an eye and entered the Dragon Province, directly flying over Dragon Head Mountain. He glanced at the golden dragon entrenched on the mountain, but only smiled in disdain.
"This is probably the toughest bone to chew in this world, but a bone is still a bone in the end! Once I complete my mission, I'll come back and slowly clean it up! I'll broaden the horizons of these natives and let them see what a true emperor is like. "
In the blink of an eye, he passed the Dragon Province and arrived at the Liang Province.
In the sky, where the pairs of eyes converged, was an empty grassland.
Kuang Tianyou understood after a moment's thought. So it was a domain attached to this world, similar to a grotto-heaven.
"For a world like this to have such methods, it's quite surprising! However, if they think they can stop me with this little trick, then they're overestimating themselves! "
As he spoke, he drew the long saber at his waist.
… …
Within the palace, there were layers of curtains.
A woman dressed in dark green court robes sat and played the zither. Her slender fingers plucked the strings leisurely, and the sound of the zither spiraled up like the sounds of nature.
The face behind the curtains was blurry, but there was no doubt that it was a great beauty. Suddenly, her brows furrowed slightly, and the sound of the zither changed. It was as cold as ice, and the chimes carried the aura of blades.
"Who goes there!?"
A flash of sword light tore through the layers of curtains. Little Ann stood barefoot on the cold white marble railings outside the palace, but he did not look at the woman playing the zither. He only looked at the dark green zither in her hands, understanding that it was her true form.
"You're … Guoli!"
The woman in court robes had originally asked Little Ann, but she suddenly noticed the sword in his hand. Her expression changed, and she called out the Abandoned Immortal Sword's true name — Guoli!
Both of them had once been treasures of the Five Absolutes Immortal, so they could not be more familiar with each other.
She picked up the zither and turned to leave. With a wave of her hand, the zither strings crisscrossed. The zither strings were sharp and sensitive, and thousands of chimes were waiting to be released.
Without waiting for Little Ann to speak, the Abandoned Immortal Sword leaped out, turned, and shot out, cutting countless zither strings. Immediately after, it transformed into a human form and blocked the woman's path. "Lu Yi, long time no see!"
One of his eyes was wide open, and the other was slightly squinted. His left shoulder was high, and his right shoulder drooped. His face was like that of a youth. He could not be considered ugly, but his entire body was filled with strange contortions. Even the clothes on his body did not fit.
These words coming from his mouth were filled with the aura of a hooligan.
As for the woman named "Lu Yi", it was as if she was being teased by a hooligan. Her face was filled with panic, and it was obvious that she was very afraid of him.
The Abandoned Immortal Sword pointed at Little Ann and said, "This is my new master. You should quickly acknowledge him as your master! If you dare to disobey, I will immediately cut off your broken zither! "As he spoke, he even pursed his lips." I have long wanted to do this! "
Without waiting for Lu Yi to reply. He waved his sword and gestured at the zither.
"Don't!" the woman cried out, her voice exceptionally moving.
Little Ann did not speak. The core of this zither tomb was clearly this Green Rippling Zither. If he could subdue it, it would be greatly beneficial.
Before she could think of what to say, Green Rippling Zither's soul yielded. With a face filled with hidden bitterness, the Abandoned Immortal Sword pulled its sleeves over and offered the zither with both hands. It called out unwillingly, "Master!"
The Abandoned Immortal Sword's face was filled with pride and disappointment, as if it regretted not being able to cut off the zither.
These were the five treasures that the Five Absolutes Immortal cherished. The Abandoned Immortal Sword's destructive power was without a doubt number one.
Compared to the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Only the sword was a weapon of war. Even if it was strange and ugly, as long as it could kill the enemy, it was a treasured sword. It was clear that the Abandoned Immortal Sword had threatened its "companions" many times in the past. It had accumulated its power for a long time.
If it was anyone else. Even if they had extraordinary power. If they could not obtain the approval of Green Rippling Zither's soul, it would be difficult to subdue it. If they forced it, it would probably be "better to die in glory than to live in dishonor."
However, facing an "old friend" like the Abandoned Immortal Sword, Green Rippling Zither's soul did not dare to do so. She had a heart of the zither and understood that there was no need to reason with a lunatic. It was better to save the pride of "better to die in glory than to live in dishonor" at a time like this!
However, it could not help but ask Little Ann, "Do you know how to play the zither?" It did not understand how she was able to subdue the Obedient Sword. Even the Five Absolutes Immortal could not make the Obedient Sword so obedient. Of course, the Five Absolutes Immortal did not care about this sword that was destined to give up, so he did not restrain it.
"I don't." Little Ann placed her hand on the zither and the Samādhi Flames of White Bone surged.
"Fine!" Green Rippling Zither's soul reluctantly accepted this result.
As soon as Xiao An refined the Green Ripple Guqin, a tall gate tower outside the palace was cut in half by a saber strike.
If not for the Abandoned Immortal Sword leading the way, the main gate of the Zither Mound would have been there.
The saber light whistled through the air, breaking through dozens of palaces. Just Now, it stopped. The wind blew Little Ann's sleeves and she looked back.
Kuang Tianyou stood on the ruins of the gap and looked at her from afar.
"The Successor of White Bone is indeed a beauty. What a pity!"
She took a step forward, then suddenly stopped. A zither string caught her foot.
Unknowingly, the entire space was filled with zither strings.
Little Ann pressed her hands on the Green Rippling Zither and strummed it with all her might. She did not care about any zither techniques. With just one move, she pushed the destructive power of the Zither Mound to the limit.
She also understood that she only had this one chance.
All the zither strings rang together, and the music was dazzling.
The zither strings wrapped around Kuang Tianyou's body layer by layer, as if to weave a thick cocoon.
The saber light shot out, thousands of palaces turned to dust, and billions of zither strings snapped at once.
The palace that Little Ann stood on was the first to bear the brunt of the attack and was turned into a white ground. A ravine was left on the ground, and the scenery of the Nine States could be seen in the ravine. Just Now, that saber strike was only the aftermath of breaking through this domain.
Little Ann disappeared. Kuang Tianyou said, "How sly! Trying to waste my strength to buy time? "
Even though he could hide from the laws of heaven and earth, he could not get any spiritual qi from the Nine States to replenish himself, unless he returned to the Gate of Hungry Ghosts. With his speed, he could return in a moment, but with so many eyes in the sky watching him, he would not embarrass himself.
"Let's see where else you can hide after leaving this domain." But after leaving the Zither Mound, following the direction of the eyes in the sky, he came to an empty place. "There's more?"
In the thatched cottage, a bearded scholar was holding a brush and writing a couplet. A sword light flashed in front of him, and the brush in his hand trembled. He cried out in shock, "Good Li!"
"Call me Grandpa Good Li!" The Forsaken Immortal Sword soul grabbed his beard.
A moment later, Xiao An refined another brush and twirled it around his fingertip. He lowered his head and saw the couplet written on it: "Smooth sailing and good luck every year, everything goes according to plan, and you will ascend step by step!" There was also a horizontal note: "Lucky stars shine!" However, the last point of the word "shine" was dragged out.
With a loud boom, the Book Mound broke!
With a wave of the brush, all the calligraphy works in the Book Mound, including the couplet on the table, surged toward the gap.
In an instant, a figure broke through all the "horizontal and vertical strokes," and charged into the thatched cottage.
There was no one in the cottage.
Kuang Tianyou raised his eyebrows in anger. He did not expect such a small matter to take so much effort!
The entire Chess Mound was a huge chessboard. Black and white pieces were scattered all over, forming endgame after endgame. Every game was like a formation, constantly changing.
The chess soul, who was as beautiful as a woman and wore a tall black hat and a long white robe, was waiting for a master, a genius chess player who could solve all of its endgame. However, it had already "paled" in submission to the Forsaken Immortal Sword's blade.
The Forsaken Immortal Sword soul said, "These three fellows are easy to deal with, but if it was that fake dragon, I would have to kill it!"
Perhaps this was due to its innate nature. The zither, chess, calligraphy, and sword all had to be used by someone. Apart from the crazy and rebellious Forsaken Immortal Sword, the zither, chess, and brush souls were all waiting for a suitable master, which made it easier for them to recognize a master.
Paintings were different. They could only be admired, not used, so they formed their own style. Moreover, the Five Absolutes Immortal had painted a dragon, so he would not be threatened by the Forsaken Immortal Sword.
"If we lose again, we will have no way out!"
Little Ann silently inserted the Blood Sea Banner into the chessboard and set up the Skeleton Demon Formation. He had the Forsaken Immortal Sword soul lead the sword formation. The zither and brush were placed beside him, so he had to do his part.
Yes, there was no way out!
His chances of survival were extremely slim, but there was no fear, only a deep sense of guilt.
"Qingshan, I'm sorry. I won't be able to keep my promise. I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you beyond the nine heavens!"
The chessboard trembled. The Chess Tomb had been destroyed!
Kuang Tianyou frowned as his eyes shone brightly. The entire starry sky was a chessboard, and the twinkling stars were the chess pieces.
However, he could only slowly crack the game. He preferred to crush his opponents with absolute strength. He cleaved through the starry sky with his saber, but he switched to another game.
In the blink of an eye, he had cracked dozens of games. He grew increasingly impatient as he shouted, "White Bone successor, stop struggling at death's door. Come out and accept your death!"
The Chess soul shouted, "I'm almost out of games! Master, what kind of opponent is this? Why is he so powerful!? "
Little Ann did not answer as he gripped the Buddha Slaying Sword tightly!
Kuang Tianyou broke through the final 'starry sky' and suddenly landed on a huge chessboard.
The black and white sides were fighting on the chessboard. It was like an ancient battlefield with thousands of soldiers and horses. He had fallen into the array.
The zither music was dazzling, and there were ambushes on all sides. It was accompanied by a faint bell chime, but it was even more disorienting.
A torrential sea of blood surged as a million skeletons rode the rolling waves and charged at him.
Thirty-six prayer beads spun as they descended from the sky. 139 bone swords crisscrossed each other.
Endless slaughter. Billions of lives were all for this battle!
Kuang Tianyou finally revealed a cautious expression. He did not want to fail miserably.
Golden light flashed in his eyes as he calmed his heart and soul. He stomped hard, causing the chessboard to tremble and the chess pieces to scatter. He allowed the white bone sword to slash at his body, producing clanging sounds. The sword array that could kill a Demon King could not injure him at all.
With a slash, the sea of blood parted. Suddenly, his neck tightened. The Skull Prayer Beads wrapped tightly, transforming into tiny skulls that bit him and pulled him into the sky.
A sword beam flashed as the Forsaken Immortal Sword tore through the void and slashed down.
He grabbed the prayer beads with his left hand and pulled them away. He brandished his saber with his right hand and parried the Forsaken Immortal Sword.
At that moment, a white figure silently emerged from the sea of blood and arrived behind him. The blade of the sword flew!
Layers of ambushes and array formations were all for a single strike.
Buddha Slaying Sword! Floating Astronomy.
