Chapter 190 - Blood Spirit Monarch’s Desire to Live
Chapter 190 Blood Spirit Monarch’s Desire to Live
The Blood Spirit Monarch’s exaggerated cries woke the surrounding cultivators up from their daze.
When their gazes gathered on Li Yu again, they changed how they looked at him. Li Yu had really refreshed their understanding time and time again.
When they thought that Li Yu’s power was already ridiculous, they had only seen the tip of the iceberg of Li Yu’s capability.
Li Yu had just killed the Sword Devil with a single strike. It was clean, simple, and casual. It was enough to see how powerful he was.
Furthermore, the Sword Devil could easily control all their flying swords, but Li Yu’s sword was the only exception.
This meant that Li Yu’s Sword Dao realm was far above the Sword Devil.
They could not imagine how high Li Yu’s level
was.
However, at this moment, everyone seemed to recall the word annotated on the Human Sons of Heaven Rankings-Unknown.
When they thought of this word again, they seemed to have a new understanding of it.
It did not seem to be the Heavenly Dao Rankings concealing Li Yu’s cultivation level, nor was it just Li Yu cultivating his own system.
This ‘Unknown’ might mean that Li Yu’s cultivation might be so powerful that even the Heavenly Dao could not measure it. It was like endless outer space. The more they thought about it, the more afraid they were. Everyone recalled everything about Li Yu that they knew, and the shock in their hearts rose again.
Not to mention those who saw Li Yu’s sword for the first time, even Ji Qinglan, who had known Li Yu for some time, was still shocked.
Li Yu’s attainments in the Sword Dao had peaked, and no one could compare to him.
To Li Yu, even without a sword, he could still unleash the most terrifying sword might, let alone a high-grade divine weapon. He could still split the sky with a single strike and kill immortals with a single strike.
He was the true Sword God, a peerless Sword God!
Indeed, Ji Qinglan was a Sword Dao expert in his previous life, and his cultivation level was far above Elder Nie in the first tier of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm in the past.
He also knew better than anyone else about the level of the Sword Devil.
That was a terrifying existence that could stir up a calamity and fight an eternal faction alone.
Now that many years had passed, the Sword Devil’s cultivation did not drop as it became stronger.
In the past, Ji Canglan would probably have been killed before he could use the forbidden technique. His Sword Sect would probably get annihilated.
Yet, such a powerful being was still as weak as an ant before Li Yu, who could kill the Sword Devil without any effort.
This was a little terrifying. Li Yu’s strength was unfathomable, and it refreshed Ji Qinglan’s understanding again. “Eldest Senior Brother, Thirteenth Brother, I’ve finally found you. I’ve missed all of you so much!” The Blood Spirit Monarch rushed in front of Li Yu and Ji Qinglan without any shame, his face covered in tears and snot.
However, Li Yu remained unmoved. Although Ji Qinglan was happy to see Ji Wanjie return, he did not dare to speak when he saw Li Yu’s dark face.
After all, Ji Wanjie had decided to leave the group suddenly. If he could not give a reasonable explanation, Li Yu would definitely not forgive him.
“Qinglan, collect those swords from your Sword Sect. Don’t take anything below immortal artifacts!” Li Yu ordered Ji Qinglan.
He did not want to waste his spoils of war.
After all, it was beneficial to bring back so many immortal artifacts for his junior brothers to use.
Everyone in the sect would have an immortal sword in the future. The sect could even organize a recruiting event where new disciples would be given an immortal sword when they entered the sect. Those with outstanding talent would be given a Dao Artifact.
It could probably blow up the entire Immortal Martial World.
“Tell me, what happened?” Li Yu clenched his fists and asked in a deep voice.
The Blood Spirit Monarch panicked inside. He felt that everything would be over if he did not give a valid explanation.
His desire to survive made his imagination run wild, and he fabricated a new story.
“When I was passing through the teleportation array, I suddenly felt controlled by an unknown will. After that, I didn’t know anything. When I woke up, I realized that I was in an immortal abode.
“I was in a strange blood refinement totem. Later on, I found out that it was the Blood Ancestor’s immortal abode, and the person controlling my will was the remnant soul of the Blood Ancestor.
“He wanted to possess my body. At that time, I really thought that I would never see my Eldest Senior Brother or my thirteenth brother and my fellow brothers again!
“Fortunately, my Demonic Blood Body’s backlash, coupled with the blessings that my Eldest Senior Brother’s Merit Golden Body gave me, helped to destroy the remnant soul of the Blood Ancestor with lightning. It allowed me to successfully devour the remnant soul of the Blood Ancestor in the end. I even obtained the inheritance in his immortal abode and entered the Immortal Spirit Realm…
The Blood Spirit Monarch spoke with sincerity and certainty.
After all, most of what he said was the truth. Indeed, he was almost possessed by the Blood Ancestor, so his lies sounded real.
Coupled with his superb acting skills stimulated by his desire to live, no one could see any flaws.
Of course, if Li Yu did not have the system, it would be difficult to find any flaws.
However, Li Yu had the system. He had previously seen the rough trajectory of Ji Wanjie’s movements. After entering the Virtual Sky Mystic Realm, Ji Wanjie did not appear in the Blood Ancestor’s immortal abode as he had claimed.
Therefore, Li Yu only believed half of Ji Wanjie’s words.
However, he could not be bothered to get to the bottom of it, nor was he in a hurry to understand everything. Moreover, he could not bear to see him cry.
Furthermore, many people were watching.
Thus, he waved his hand and said, “If there’s a next time, I won’t let you off!”
Hearing Li Yu’s words, the Blood Spirit Monarch heaved a sigh of relief. He had escaped a calamity.
The Blood Spirit Monarch had also thought it through. If his identity as the Blood Spirit Monarch was exposed in the future, he would kneel and beg for mercy, becoming a servant like Wu Chang.
After all, he did not have any deep enmity with Li Yu.
Li Yu should not have to reach that point to kill him.
As for the matter of him possessing Ji Wanjie, he had already thought of an excuse. In any case, he could not escape from Li Yu.
Instead of dying now, it was better to perform well and establish a deep relationship with Li Yu and his fellow disciples.
He could also fight for some hope of survival in the future.
Sigh…
I had finally stepped into the immortal level after a narrow escape.
Yet, I’m still living such a cowardly life. I have fallen into Li Yu’s hands and got myself completely controlled by him.
When the cultivators in the distance saw that Ji Wanjie was actually from the Qingyun Sect, they suddenly felt relieved.
It did not seem that surprising for someone from the Qingyun Sect to enter the Immortal Spirit Realm.
After everyone found their stolen flying swords, they gathered towards Li Yu. After sizing up the Pan Emperor’s Immortal Abode, their gazes landed on Li Yu.
“Thank you, Immortal Master, for eradicating this calamity for the world and recovering our flying swords!” Everyone cupped their fists in gratitude.
After all, if not for Li Yu, they would probably have caused a major disaster today.
Li Yu remained silent. He only cupped his hands to everyone and nodded with a smile in response.
