Book 5: Chapter 194: Major Defeat for Lu Ya
As Lu Ya kept its guard up against the monster in the crimson fog, it showed an extremely sullen expression.
It aimed the Immortal Slaying Calabash, the Vine World Calabash, and the True Flame Calabash at the crimson fog. Although that monster kept claiming to help, it sensed grave danger from the monster for some reason. This danger seemed even more horrifying than the Great Loach Deity.
Who exactly is he?
“Roar!”
The Great Loach Deity charged at Gu Hai. As it did so, it released beams of blue light that formed a large net shooting towards Gu Hai.
“Another animal spirit technique? That is not sufficient!” Gu Hai ferociously swung his saber.
Countless skulls soared up, overwhelming the place and consuming the entire net.
The Great Loach Deity spat out a sword.
Boom!
The bone saber and the sword clashed. The sword vibrated as the bone saber nicked it. Then, many skulls started gnawing on it.
The Great Loach Deity swung its tail at Gu Hai, shaking space.
Its tail clashed with the bone saber.
Boom!
The immense force flung Gu Hai back three hundred-odd meters while the Great Loach Deity’s tail remained intact.
“Hahahaha! I wondered how powerful you were. It turns out to be all show! Humph! You can’t even break my skin, and you want to kill me?” the Great Loach Deity roared ferociously.
Below, Old Wu and countless humans were already on their knees, muttering something. No one knew what they were saying, but they were all praying for Gu Hai’s safety.
“Humph! Can’t break your skin? When I do, it will be when you die!” Gu Hai said coldly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Great Loach Deity swung its tail again and again, continuously pushing Gu Hai back. However, the two were close in strength. It was just that Gu Hai could not break through the Great Loach Deity’s skin.
Far away, Lu Ya narrowed its eyes slightly. “Did I see wrong?”
After Gu Hai got knocked away again, he stopped himself in the air. “Alright. It’s time to end this.”
“End? Time for your end, right? Roar!” The Great Loach Deity opened its mouth wide as it rushed towards Gu Hai.
The Great Loach Deity had incredible confidence in its defense. It had already proven earlier that this crimson-mist monster could not even scratch it; the monster could only get chased around by it.
It needed to kill that monster.
The Great Loach Deity was poised to swallow the monster before it.
“Cycle Saber Technique…” Gu Hai raised the Life Ender Saber once more.
Countless saber qi suddenly appeared in the surroundings when Gu Hai raised the saber, arranged according to a Go board and looking like a Go puzzle. As Gu Hai swung down his saber, countless saber qi quickly coalesced into a manifested saber.
“What?” Lu Ya’s expression changed as it suddenly thought of something.
“Fifth Cycle!”
The manifested saber fully formed and swung down with surging power. This time, the force of this saber strike was several times more than the previous. The saber ripped open a black tear in space as it headed for the Great Loach Deity.
The Great Loach Deity had no way to resist this powerful saber strike. It could only let out a startled roar.
“No! No!”
Boom!
A powerful shock wave swept out in all directions.
All the animal spirit deities and humans spectating the battle shivered suddenly. They saw the Great Loach Deity—previously the strongest in this world—get chopped in half.
However, the two halves of the Great Loach Deity did not seem to be dead yet. It roared hoarsely, “Who are you?!”
Boom!
Black energy surged from the Life Ender Saber, instantly forming millions of skulls that rushed towards the Great Loach Deity’s two halves and frantically munched them.
The powerful shock wave from the earlier explosion scattered some of the crimson mist around Gu Hai, revealing his face.
“Gu Hai!” Lu Ya exclaimed.
When Gu Hai executed the Fifth Cycle, Lu Ya had sensed something off already. It had heard of Gu Hai’s move before, the Cycle Saber Technique, but it had not thought much of the move. Even when Gu Hai executed the Fifth Cycle earlier, it still did not believe the monster was Gu Hai. After all, Gu Hai was incredibly weak. How could Gu Hai be this strong?
Furthermore, Lu Ya had sealed Gu Hai’s cultivation. Entering this world was practically a death sentence for him.
How? How could it be him?!
Lu Ya did not dare believe it until Gu Hai’s face appeared. Left without a choice, Lu Ya now had to believe. It really is him? It really is him?
Gloom flooded Lu Ya’s heart.
“It’s me, Crown Prince Lu Ya. It’s my turn now!” Gu Hai said with a cold smile.
Lu Ya suddenly realized why Gu Hai let the Great Loach Deity continuously knock him back. It was not that he could not match the Great Loach Deity but an excuse for him to approach Lu Ya.
After all that, Gu Hai was now very close to Lu Ya.
“Fifth Cycle!” Gu Hai swung his saber again.
“Treasure, please turn around!” Lu Ya hastily called out.
Boom!
One hundred eight white Immortal Slaying Flying Sabers flew out of the Immortal Slaying Calabash and shot towards Gu Hai.
“The Immortal Slaying Flying Sabers? Haha! The body I formed in this Animal Path Secret Realm is far superior to the one I have outside!” Gu Hai said coldly.
With the Fifth Cycle, a saber qi domain appeared around Gu Hai. One hundred eight saber qi immediately intercepted the Immortal Slaying Flying Sabers.
Boom!
The saber qi instantly cut the one hundred eight Immortal Slaying Flying Sabers in half.
“What?” Lu Ya’s face sank.
Suddenly, a golden flying saber appeared from the Immortal Slaying Calabash.
As the golden flying saber approached, it seemed to have a pair of sharp eyes as it charged at Gu Hai.
Boom!
After the golden flying saber entered Gu Hai’s saber qi domain, it ripped apart many saber qi as it rushed towards Gu Hai’s face. It was several times more powerful than the earlier white Immortal Slaying Flying Sabers.
“Chop!” Gu Hai glared.
Boom!
When the Life Ender Saber chopped down, it knocked back the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber and even nicked the golden blade, drawing many skulls.
Buzz!
The Immortal Slaying Flying Saber turned around and fled in pain. However, the skulls locked onto it, continuously gnawing on it.
Whoosh!
The Immortal Slaying Flying Saber returned to the Immortal Slaying Calabash in an instant, bringing all this to an end.
“Chop!”
The saber that nicked the golden Immortal Slaying Flying Saber continued swinging towards Lu Ya, its power utterly undiminished.
Many vines rushed out of the Vine World Calabash.
Boom!
The saber immediately chopped the vines apart.
The True Flame Calabash sent out vast amounts of Sam?dhi True Flame.
Boom!
The attack broke through the fire and continued towards Lu Ya.
Caw!
Lu Ya’s expression changed as it spat out Gu Hai’s Life Executioner Saber.
When the Life Executioner Saber appeared, purple light appeared as well. A powerful destructive force rushed towards the Life Ender Saber.
Boom!
A loud sound rang out as Lu Ya went flying three hundred-odd meters back in a sorry state. The Life Executioner Saber got knocked away.
Gu Hai took a step forward and arrived right in front of Lu Ya again.
“No! No! That’s impossible! Why are you so strong? And this saber?!” Lu Ya exclaimed.
“You took my Life Executioner Saber, but you do not know my saber technique. If you can’t use it, what is the point of a treasure, no matter how strong it is?” Gu Hai sneered.
Rumble…!
The black energy in the surroundings that had just consumed the Great Loach Deity rushed back to the Life Ender Saber. As energy poured into Gu Ha’s body, he grew even stronger.
The Life Executioner Saber had flown far away, and the three calabashes had exploded. However, Gu Hai did not care. He had only one target: Lu Ya.
Gu Hai stepped forward and attacked again.
Caw!
Lu Ya let out a ferocious roar as bright, fiery light erupted from its body. It instantly became like a sun, encasing the surroundings in a furnace of fire. Then, it opened its mouth and charged towards Gu Hai. A powerful aura gushed forth like a raging river.
“Fifth Cycle!” Gu Hai swung again.
The surging saber qi contended against the torrential aura, charging towards Lu Ya.
Boom!
The fire in the surroundings exploded and scattered. The manifested saber swung down on Lu Ya. However, there was a ball-shaped, sunlike barrier in the way.
“Blazing sun in the sky, ten suns flying across the expanse!” Lu Ya roared.
Lu Ya seemed to be pouring all its Divine Energy into this ball-shaped barrier. Some animal spirit deities accidentally got too close to the barrier and burned to nothing upon contact. Not even ash remained of them.
“Chop!” Gu Hai glared.
However, the Life Ender Saber failed to break Lu Ya’s technique.
Lu Ya pressed towards Gu Hai with a ferocious expression.
“Sixth Cycle!” Gu Hai shouted.
When Gu Hai swung his saber, Lu Ya trembled internally with a bad premonition.
Boom!

Indeed, when the saber landed, the sunlike barrier exploded.
Blargh!
Lu Ya spewed out a mouthful of blood as it went flying back more than three kilometers.
“Die!” Gu Hai attacked again with a ferocious expression.
Now, Lu Ya seemed to be severely injured and powerless to resist. When it saw Gu Hai’s saber approaching, its expression changed.
“Hahahaha! Go on and kill me! Go on! Kill me! If you do, Bing Ji will die as well!” Lu Ya yelled with a ferocious expression.
Boom!
The Life Ender Saber’s manifested saber stopped right in front of Lu Ya, kicking up a strong gust. Gu Hai’s saber had stopped cold.
“Hahahaha! You don’t dare to kill me, right? Well, you will never have such a chance again!” Lu Ya sneered.
As Lu Ya spoke, it flapped its wings.
Whoosh!
Lu Ya instantly flew into the distance.
“Humph! You are strong, but you aren’t as fast as me. Gu Hai, I should have killed you back then!” Lu Ya fled, still showing a ferocious expression.
Gu Hai watched as Lu Ya fled but did not give chase. Instead, he stepped forward and soared into the sky.
Whoosh!
Gu Hai quickly flew to the sun, the star hovering in the sky. He could already see a large palace hall above that star from a distance. It was called the Manifold Deity Palace.
“The Manifold Deity Palace? I should be able to go out by crossing this Manifold Deity Palace, right?” Anticipation flashed in Gu Hai’s eyes.
When Lu Ya failed to see Gu Hai behind it, it felt slightly startled. Gu Hai is not chasing me?
Lu Ya turned its head and spotted Gu Hai rushing to the Manifold Deity Palace.
When it saw Gu Hai about to enter the Manifold Deity Palace, its face lit up in joy.
“Are you trying to get out? If you do, you will not be as strong as you are now. Your cultivation will go back to the Lower Heavenly Palace Realm. If you go out, you will die!” Lu Ya soared into the sky excitedly.
Gu Hai was only this strong in this world. After leaving this world, Divine Energy would no longer reign supreme. He would return to being a Lower Heavenly Palace Realm cultivator in the Divine Continent.
It would be easy for Lu Ya to kill Gu Hai then.
At this thought, hatred flashed in Lu Ya’s eyes as it charged towards the sun.
Far away, Gu Hai had already reached the entrance of the Manifold Deity Palace above the sun. Then, he withdrew his mortal soul, and the crimson fog vanished as he stepped into the Manifold Deity Palace.
“Excellent! Gu Hai, you are dead now!” Lu Ya cackled maniacally.
However, Lu Ya only just stopped laughing when Gu Hai came back out of the distant Manifold Deity Palace. The moment Gu Hai returned, he again brought out his mortal soul. The world suddenly sent over surging energy, reforming the demonic body that Gu Hai had earlier.
“You…why are you back?” Lu Ya exclaimed in shock and fury.
——
Earlier, at the Manifold Deity Palace’s entrance:
Gu Hai withdrew his mortal soul, returning to his usual physical body. The surging crimson killing sin immediately entered the Karmic Energy pool. Then, he stepped into the Manifold Deity Palace, instantly appearing above the Divine Continent’s fusang tree in the next moment. Now, he stood at the Manifold Deity Palace’s entrance in Lu Ya City.
“The Lower Heavenly Palace Realm’s seventh layer? My cultivation did indeed return to normal.” Gu Hai’s face sank.
Fiery light shone in the surroundings as if a great battle was taking place outside.
However, Gu Hai simply could not be bothered to look. Instead, he took out a zither puppet with a flip of his hand.
“Qian Heavenly Emperor, Long Zhanguo, I am Gu Hai. I have found the Animal Path Secret Realm. It is at the Manifold Deity Palace in Lu Ya City. Come quickly! Come quickly!” Gu Hai said.
Buzz!
The zither puppet trembled, transmitting the voice.
Then, Gu Hai ignored the zither puppet and reentered the Manifold Deity Palace.
