Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

Chapter 661

Untouchable

Mu Yu remained on high vigilance for the hour he continued up, trying to see if he could pick up any traces of Gui Ximings presence.

Xiaoshuai groggily woke up upon whiffing the scent of peaches at a forest of fruit trees. Mu Yu forbade Xiaoshuai from eating them, deeming them dangerous.

There was an Yixing teapot and teacups sitting on a stone table, which was located under a sun-shrouding banyan tree, on the platform Mu Yu remembered. The waterfall pouring down covered the path at the bottom.

The colourful, revolving nebula concealing the interior of the cave is the World Manifestation Nebula Gui Ximing picked up. When we opened the pagoda, the seal and nebula entered the cave, so I suppose it means well have to repeat that here. I can slip my hands into the stars without any hassles, but World Manifestation Nebula is out of reach no matter how I reach. Mu Yu tried ambling in. Yep, no stopping me from walking, but Ill never reach it. How do I get around this So Close Yet So Far Formation?

Annoyed with Mu Yu shaking him awake, Xiaoshuai blearily cursed, What?! Im busy eating a peach.

I warned you two not to overdo it, but you just had to ignore me. Any genius ideas to enter this cave?

Xiaoshuai had a casual glance and then went back to sleep.

Theres roast duck in the cave.

Where?! Where?! Where at?! exclaimed Xiaoshuai, waking up and sniffing before flopping back to sleep.

Mu Yu couldnt do anything besides stuff Xiaoshuai back inside his shirt.

Mu Yu contemplated climbing up to the peak. Howbeit, Gui Ximing could have arrived at any moment. Hence, he had to camp in the cave. Mu Yu inched toward the edge of the cliff. Sadly, there was no aesthetic scenery to behold.

Never expected to see you here, remarked Gui Ximing, walking out from behind the waterfall.

Mu Yu spun around, assuming Gui Ximing just came down from the peak. I thought you already pissed off to the past.

Before I go, I need to kill you.

No surprises seeing five twins approach. Mu Yu reactively tried to fly only to realise it was impossible. What a drag.

Mu Yu coated himself in a formation, simultaneously firing Shadow Splitter Sword from a void. In response, Gui Ximing summoned his trusty red axe.

The two were out to collect each others head as a trophy, raising their output to the max, yet they were stuck an inch outside of their range.

Mu Yu sheathed Shadow Splitter and strafed a few steps. Gui Ximing continued to charge for a while until it finally hit him why Mu Yu sheathed his sword, prompting him to stop. However, Gui Ximing then walked up to Mu Yu and tried to split the latters skull.

Cognisant of the fact that the axe couldnt harm him and that he couldnt touch the axe, Mu Yu moved just his tongue and lips. You still not done?

Consider yourself lucky. You have this place to thank.

Lucky, huh?

Mu Yu could touch the banyan tree and even retract Shadow Splitter Sword. Since they were both real, it baffled him as to why he couldnt touch Gui Ximing.

Gui Ximing went back to the cave entrance in hopes of figuring out the secret to the place, confirming Mu Yus suspicion that Gui Ximing didnt actually know how to use the seal.

Hey, when did you lose your Walk-in Heart Genesis? How did you lose something so important? Like, dont you shackle it or assign guards? Snubbed, Mu Yu kept questioning, Do you have some special method of detecting it since its your property?

Gui Ximing spared Mu Yu a quick, dismissive glance.

How does it look? Is it as ugly as your heart is, or is it as tough as constipation?

Watch your filthy mouth! Our Walk-in Heart Genes-

Shut it, Seventh, reproached Gui Ximing, calling his twins back inside him. Only our upper echelon know how it looks. Outsiders will never know, and youre the least deserving to know.

Yet someone managed to pinch it. Was it a rat? Poor you.

I know youre trying to provoke me to stop me. Ill never tell you what year, month or day it was stolen. I wont tell you anything.

Tch.

With all leads gone, Mu Yu sat down out of frustration. Before he knew it, there was somebody sitting on the stone stool opposite him. No, it wasnt Reverend Xuan Jizi!
