Chapter 1148 - Qing Wan’s Origins
Boom!0
Sword qi swept through the air, illuminating the skies and ruthlessly cleaving into the blood moon.0
The figure within the blood moon swayed violently, and a rain of blood-colored light scattered.0
The woman’s face frosted over, and her black jade staff suddenly burst with golden light, then suddenly tapped the air.0
Streaks of golden lightning descended explosively upon the human realm, each like a roaring dragon.0
Each streak of golden lightning seemed to possess its own spirit. They contained dense glyphs of the Laws, and when they descended, their electric power manifested illusory demonic gods.0
It was as if a vast heavenly army were charging him astride the backs of electric dragons. Their power was far beyond the tribulation light the woman in blue had used earlier!0
“What kind of Law is this? It doesn’t just contain the Laws of Heavenly Prayer. It seems like it contains other powers of the Grand Dao just as powerful…” 0
Su Yi was deeply surprised. He’d seen the Laws of Heavenly Prayer, Cosmic Silence, and Spirit Nirvana. Each was the supreme Celestial Law of its respective star realm.0
But he’d never even considered that someone’s power of the Laws could contain a supreme Celestial Law like Heavenly Prayer. 0
It’s actually somewhat similar to the Mysterious Truths of Reincarnation! 0
Reincarnation consisted of the Laws of Rebirth, Withering and Flourishing, the Far Shore, Oblivion, and the End. 0
And this woman’s power of the Laws was obviously similar! It fused multiple supreme Celestial Laws like the Laws of Heavenly Prayer into one!0
As Su Yi pondered, he swung his sword and clashed with her head-on.0
Streak after streak of sword qi took to the skies, cutting down the heavenly warriors and slaying the lightning dragons!0
Like an axe through bamboo. Nothing could stand in its way!0
The Laws that comprised the secrets of reincarnation could contend with Celestial Laws, but the aura of the Sword of the Nine Hells could suppress them! 0
Even though the woman in blue controlled extraordinarily powerful mysterious truths of the Grand Dao, they struggled to overcome the suppression of the Sword of the Nine Hells!0
Of course, he couldn’t rule out another possibility.0
The woman in blue stood somewhere extremely far away, in an altogether different world. Every time she struck, the distance made her attack much weaker.0
“How is this…?” Deep within the blood-red moon, the woman in blue was visibly stunned. It seemed she found this difficult to imagine.0
But there was already no time for her to give the matter any further thought. The illusory blood moon was damaged, and it wouldn’t last much longer.0
“Go!” She turned over her left hand, and a command token shot through the air and attacked from afar.0
Weng!0
The token shone with dim gray luster. As it appeared, it transformed into a tall, stalwart figure.0
He was fully thirty feet tall and covered in bronze armor. He carried a glittering silver spear with unparalleled valiance.0
As soon as he appeared——0
Boom!0
The Laws of the Azure Continent were suppressed, and their power crumbled.0
Unstoppably dazzling divine flames surged around that stalwart figure. He was like a god in the mortal world, and his aura alone crushed the skies and shattered the surrounding mountains and rivers.0
Terrifying! Ning Sihua and the others were stunned. A’Cang immediately led them back into the depths of Meteor Abyss; they simply didn’t dare to linger.0
“The power of an imprint of will?” A solemn look appeared on Su Yi’s face.0
That tall, stalwart figure’s aura was almost powerful beyond imagination. He wasn’t even inferior to the Fisherman’s Dao Clone!2
Heaven and earth were in disarray, and the air crumbled and collapsed.0
The tall, stalwart figure said indifferently, “My name is Nine Planets, and when I point my spear at an enemy, I won’t rest until he’s dead!”1
Every word was like metal clanging against metal, full of astonishing murderous intent.0
Before his voice had even finished echoing through the air, that tall, stalwart figure suddenly swung his silver spear and attacked from afar.0
Boom!0
Silver flame seemed to tear through everything around them. Wherever his spear passed, everything was reduced to ash.0
How was this any different from the attack of the gods of legends?0
A hint of cold light flashed in the depths of Su Yi’s gaze.0
Clang!0
The Tiny Heart of the Cosmos let out a clear hum. Its edge emanated shocking, inscrutable energy fluctuations of the Grand Dao!0
Su Yi no longer suppressed his cultivation boundary. His Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivation instantly soared back to the peak of the Profound Serenity Realm.0
Furthermore, he now drew upon the Sword of the Nine Hells’ aura without reservation!0
That stalwart figure, Nine Planets, was far too mighty and imposing. He far surpassed the world’s Imperial Apex cultivators. Even though he was just a portion of remnant will, he put immense pressure on Su Yi.0
Given the circumstances, how could Su Yi possibly hold back?0
“Cut!” Su Yi leaped into the air and swung his sword.0
A thousand-foot streak of sword qi rose, illuminating the entire world. Unsurpassed sword force swept outward, as if tearing through the curtain of night!0
Its power seemed capable of overturning heaven and earth.0
Time slowed to a crawl, and the surrounding space seemed to sink into oblivion, as if the power of the Grand Dao within that strike had completely suppressed it.0
“This is…” The tall, stalwart figure charging over from a distance suddenly widened his eyes as if he’d seen a ghost.0
“Fuck! Little Heavenly Prayer, you sure screwed me over this time!” The tall, stalwart figure shrieked in utter terror, then turned and fled.1
He held nothing back, either. He couldn’t have been any quicker or more direct.0
Earlier, he’d seemed unparalleled in his valiance, and his imposing aura shook both heaven and earth. He’d proclaimed that when he pointed his spear at an enemy, he wouldn’t rest until they were dead.0
But a blink of an eye later, he was scared out of his wits, and he turned tail and fled like mad, charging at the illusory blood moon. He cursed and sputtered the whole time, too.0
He’d changed his tune far, far too quickly.0
“Uncle Nine Planets…” The woman in blue was obviously caught off guard. She almost dared not believe her eyes.0
Alas, that tall, stalwart figure ultimately reacted just one step too late.0
When Su Yi’s slash landed…0
Boom!!0
Unstoppable sword force continued ahead, cleaving through the skies and shattering the curtain of night. That stalwart figure had only just barely reached the edge of the blood moon when his body shattered into pieces and dissipated into ash.0
In the last moments before his death, he roared bitterly, “Little Heavenly Prayer, you can’t trick people like this!”0
Boom!0
Before his voice had even finished echoing through the air, the illusory blood moon exploded, shattered by that streak of sword qi. A long rift stretched across the entire stretch of night sky.0
It extended even beyond the dome of heaven!0
A long time passed before the dust dissipated and everything returned to its formal stillness.0
The illusory blood moon had already been destroyed.0
But Su Yi understood that it was nothing more than a spatial tunnel, a way to traverse the boundlessness of time and space.0
There was absolutely no way he’d killed that woman identical to Qing Wan.0
“That imprint of will, Nine Planets, most likely recognized the Sword of the Nine Hells’ aura. Otherwise, there’s no way he would have reacted with such shock and terror…0
“It’s also possible that he once suffered an enormous loss beneath the Sword of the Nine Hells, and that he’s keenly aware of its terrifying power. That’s why he lost his composure and fled, not even daring to block…” Su Yi’s eyes flashed.0
He really was quite surprised; not even he had anticipated this. That Nine Planets was merely an imprint of will, but he was even stronger than the Fisherman’s Dao Clone.0
Despite this, as soon as he recognized the aura of the Sword of the Nine Hells, he was scared out of his wits…0
Did the Temple Master perhaps defeat him with the Sword of the Nine Hells before?0
Su Yi couldn’t be certain. 0
The Temple Master wasn’t his only past incarnation. Eight divine chains were still sealed on the Sword of the Nine Hells, each representing one of his past lives.0
The Temple Master was just one of them.0
A moment later, Su Yi recalled something else entirely.0
That Nine Planets guy had actually called the woman in blue “Little Heavenly Prayer!”0
Su Yi instantly understood.0
The Netherworld King mentioned Little Heavenly Prayer a long time ago. Apparently, their leader once brought a three or four-year-old girl back to the sect and accepted her as his closed-door disciple.0
Even in the Nine Heavens Pavilion, no one knew her origins, but everyone knew her future was inestimable!0
It was only later that the rest of the sect learned that their Supreme Leader had given that little girl an unbelievable Daoist title: Heavenly Prayer!0
At the time, Su Yi was quite surprised.0
The Nine Heavens Pavilion was located in a place called the Heavenly Prayer Star Realm, and its most supreme power of the Laws was known as the Laws of Heavenly Prayer!0
Yet its leader had chosen Heavenly Prayer as his disciple’s title. He couldn’t possibly have chosen that title for a little girl casually.0
There were surely secrets behind this choice!0
The older-generation members of the Nine Heavens Pavilion had called the girl Little Heavenly Prayer ever since!1
But Su Yi would never, ever have guessed that the closed-door disciple of the leader of the Nine Heavens Pavilion and Qing Wan were almost certainly the same person!0
This truth sent a chill down Su Yi’s spine, and numerous possibilities occurred to him.0
It was several years prior, during his time with Guangling City’s Wen Family, that he regained his memories of his past life. Not long after, he acquired a Soul-Nurturing Gourd from a heretical cultivator in the courtyard behind Apricot Clinic. That was when he first became acquainted with the ghost living inside it: Qing Wan!0
It was no exaggeration to say that she was the first woman he’d connected with after reawakening his memories of his past life.0
At the time, he could tell that Qing Wan’s origins were extraordinary, and that the soul jade she carried was unimaginably mysterious.0
Now, Su Yi dimly understood that Qing Wan’s appearance hadn’t been a coincidence after all. Rather, she was most likely a pawn the leader of the Nine Heavens Pavilion had placed there deliberately!0
How could Su Yi not be surprised upon realizing this? 0
Back then, no one in the Great Zhou knew who he really was, yet Qing Wan had appeared before him nonetheless!0
And the Netherworld King said that over the years, the leader of the Nine Heavens Pavilion had always been searching for someone: the one who could counter the Laws of Heavenly Prayer!0
Su Yi immediately guessed that he was almost certainly the person the leader of the Nine Heavens Pavilion was searching for. 0
What happened tonight confirmed Su Yi’s guess. He really was the person the Supreme Leader of the Nine Heavens Pavilion was searching for!1
But what confused Su Yi was the connection between Qing Wan and Little Heavenly Prayer. Were they really the same person? 0
And just what method did Qing Wan use to find him?0
If she were really acting on the leader of the Nine Heaven Pavilion’s orders, why didn’t she take action as soon as she saw him?0
And why was Little Heavenly Prayer trying to take Qing Wan away now?0
One question after another flooded into Su Yi’s mind.0
“Little Heavenly Prayer… Qing Wan… The Nine Heavens Pavilion…. I really wouldn’t have guessed the Supreme Leader of the Nine Heavens Pavilion was so capable…” murmured Su Yi, his expression shifting and uncertain.0
“But after this incident, perhaps I can learn some of the truth from Qing Wan!” 0
Su Yi still vividly recalled his first meeting with Qing Wan. She didn’t remember her past, as if her memories had been wiped away.0
But now, Su Yi understood. Qing Wan’s missing memories were either about that woman in blue, or about the Supreme Leader of the Nine Heavens Pavillion!0
“Master!” An excited voice rang out.0
Yuan Heng, Ning Sihua, and the others shot out of Meteor Abyss to welcome him.0
All of their faces were full of undisguisable delight and excitement.0
Su Yi turned around and took in all those familiar faces. He couldn’t help but smile, and a long-lost warmth arose in his heart.0
The full moon hung beneath the firmament, and everything was silent and still.0
That same radiant moonlight had once illuminated a beauty’s return.
