Slaughter
“Haha, not even a speck of him remains. Even his sword resembles a beehive,” praised Tian Yun.
Shi Minghui raised the corner of his lips. “Obviously. Don’t you have a few explosion pills on you?”
Tian Yun shrugged. “Don’t you think it was a waste to use dozens on him?”
“Better safe than sorry. I had a hundred with me. He’s not a weakling. Did you forget we’ve been at his mercy before? Plus, who is my grandpa? I’m not some dead beat.”
“Let’s get going.”
Spiritual qi propagated from the shaking sword in the sky. The sword raised itself and swung down lifelessly, yet it suffocated the cousins. Tian Yun summoned his shield again. Sword qi ricocheted off his shield. The two didn’t take damage, but the impact whammed the shield away.
Mu Yu remerged where the explosion went off, brandishing his wood spirit in his right hand.
“He’s completely unscathed!” exclaimed Tian Yun.
“You two are the ones who deserve to die.”
Mu Yu had no time to run or escape into a plant when Shi Minghui detonated the explosion pills. The wood spirit absorbed him into itself at the last split second, thankfully saving his life. He saw something akin to a rakshasa when he was inside the wood spirit sword. The rakshasa exuded an overwhelming power. The sky and moon inside were scarlet. The rivers were replaced with blood. Correct, it was the nightmare he often had. The difference was he saw more of the nightmare. He saw himself approaching from the distance, armed with the wood spirit sword. Notably, his sword was full of life and perfect. A single swing flattened the earth and restored life. Even blood was returned to their owners’ bodies. Humans open their eyes and rose again, while his sword was left with holes again.
Mu Yu was developed an interest in the reasons for the holes in the wood spirit sword once more after the nightmare was revealed. Until then, he perceived the sword negatively as he classified it a weapon for murder. In the nightmare, it was the complete opposite.
“How did you sustain these injuries?” Mu Yu asked, running his finger over the sword.
The sword vibrated. A flood of information gushed into Mu Yu’s mind from the sword. The information was an influx of knowledge on plants and herbs in a variety of facets. In essence, it was the rest of the iceberg, while Ku Mu’s knowledge was the tip of said iceberg.
Mu Yu refocused on the task at hand and taunted, “What other malicious schemes do you have? Show me.”
“Just because you didn’t die, doesn’t mean you can harm us!” Tian Yun raised Celestial Star Shield up to his eye line.
“I see.” Mu Yu vaulted into the sky and thrust down.
Whilst guarding them, Tian Yun ejected the spear, while Shi Minghui prepared explosion pills.
“Now, Xiaoshuai!”
Xiaoshuai sneaked up behind Shi Minghui and disturbed the latter’s flow of spiritual qi. His spiritual energy leaked into the explosion pills before he realised it. When he finally felt the pressure build up, he screamed, “N-!”
Boom! Celestial Star Shield and the cousins crash landed into the snow.
Mu Yu returned to the ground and stated, “The best way to destroy a tough defence is to dismantle it from inside.”
Shi Minghui had the luck of the devil, surviving despite the blast proximity. He was barely conscious as he stuffed destiny skeleton sovereign pills into his mouth. The pills would’ve reduced the damage considerably if he took them before the explosion, but he didn’t make it in time. After consuming the pills, he couldn’t escape during the time he was at Soul Severing Realm.
Shi Minghui shakily showed his jade and laughed. “The nine qi soul purifying flower is mine. If you want it, come get me! Without your jade piece, all you can do is wither here!”
“Did I say you could go?”
Mu Yu brought Shadow Splitter Sword down from the sky and ran it through Shi Minghui’s heart. Shi Minghui’s eyes were on the verge of bursting. He reached for more destiny skeleton sovereign pills and squeezed his jade piece out of instinct. A golden light teleported Shi Minghui away from Second Heaven. Nonetheless, Shadow Splitter Sword fought ripped itself out from the force taking it with Shi Minghui. The wood spirit appeared again and linked itself up to Shi Minghui with a trail of qi and sucked him into itself, sealing another hole!
Tian Yun’s right leg could only be healed using a pill as strong as nephrite healing pill. Burnt, he vengefully glared at Mu Yu. Mu Yu turned his sword to Tian Yun. Tian Yun was able to split his jade piece in time. Mu Yu couldn’t stop them from escaping
Xiaoshuai returned to Mu Yu and queried, “How did Shi Minghui crush his jade piece in time?”
“Tian Yun deserved to die, too!”
Mu Yu wanted to kill the two and take their jade pieces. For the reason that they had escaped, he was likely going to be face to face with Shi Dengtian as soon as he returned.
“What are we going to do about the nine qi spirit purifying flower? Shi Minghui took it, didn’t he?”
Mu Yu grinned. “Nine qi soul purifying flower? They’re still too naïve.”
