Chapter 1047 - I Will Walk The Path That No One Walks On
Chapter 1047: I Will Walk The Path That No One Walks On
Based on Su Heng’s knowledge, it was impossible to sprout the eleventh leaf, let alone someone who had not even formed the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar. Yu Shangrong’s eleventh leaf had completely subverted his knowledge. He could not believe it just like how he did not believe there were 13 months in a year. He rubbed his eyes again and widened his eyes to have a better look.
“Ten leaves…” Su Heng saw the golden halo was indeed surrounded by ten leaves. He sighed in relief. His eyesight must have been bad earlier. Moreover, after being frozen for such a long time, it was normal to hallucinate. Anyway, that was no longer important. He said seriously, “I’m very sorry; I’m just following orders. I must kill you. If you don’t die, I will have to die!”
Subsequently, Su Heng brought out his black astrolabe, shooting out a beam of light toward Yu Shangrong.
The light from the crimson-gold avatar provided Yu Shangrong with sufficient visibility. When the beam of light was about to land, the crimson-gold avatar dodged to the side.
With that, the beam of light missed its mark.
“Huh?” Su Heng was shocked.
At this moment, the crimson-golden avatar rushed out and extended its hand.
Boom!
Su Heng was caught off guard. He raised both of his arms to block the sudden attack. The impact caused him to fall and touch the surface of the black water.
Yu Shangrong lifted his right hand, and the Longevity Sword flew into his hand. He smiled. “You’ll be the first person to die under my sword after I enter the Thousand Realms Whirling stage.”
Yu Shangrong flashed, leaving behind an afterimage. His crimson-golden avatar swooped down as well.
“Thousand Realms Whirling!”
Boom!
The black water surged into the sky, stirring up huge waves.
Yu Heng arrived in front of Su Heng in an instant. In just a breath, dozens of energy swords shot out.
Su Heng’s Thousand Realms Whirling avatar released a wave of energy to send Yu Shangrong flying.
“It’s too late,” Yu Shangrong said indifferently.
At this time, the crimson-gold avatar increased in size rapidly from its initial 200 feet.
300 feet.
400 feet.
500 feet.
500 feet! That was the height of a newly formed Thousand Realms Whirling avatar!
“What kind of cultivation is this?” Su Heng was thoroughly shocked.
“A cultivation path that no one has ever walked on before… Let me show you…” Yu Shangrong said.
The crimson-golden avatar turned around and grabbed the golden halo before using it to slash at Su Heng’s Thousand Realms Whirling avatar’s chest.
Bang!
Su Heng’s Thousand Realms Whirling avatar was injured. He groaned; he felt as though he had been hammered by a thousand gold hammers. He looked up in disbelief as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Yu Shangrong also brandished his sword to attack at this moment, not giving Su Heng a chance to catch his breath.
The halo in the hands of the crimson-gold avatar was much larger than before. Like before, golden leaves revolved around it.
“Eleven leaves!?” Su Heng’s eyes widened as he roared, “Despicable!”
At this moment, Su Heng realized he had been deceived. He hurriedly withdrew his avatar and shot up.
Yu Shangrong chased after him, as fast as the wind.
In the dark, Yu Shangrong’s quiet voice rang out. “Too slow…”
Su Heng turned around. The crimson-golden avatar grabbed the golden halo and swept it across his avatar that had five Birth Charts.
Whoosh!
Su Heng was shocked. He had no experience fighting with such an avatar and was forced into a passive position. He could only unleash his grand technique to widen the distance.
Nothing could be seen in the endless dark void.
The golden halo shot out a powerful energy seal, stirring up the black water.
“You’re still too slow.” Yu Shangrong chased after Su Heng. He could feel the powers of the life hearts he had absorbed were finally at their full potential. They were stable, smoother, and much stronger than before.
Yu Shangrong continued to chase after Su Heng; his speed was no slower than Su Heng who possessed five Birth Charts.
Since Yu Shangrong had just sprouted the eleventh leaf, he was still not very familiar with the new realm and the new avatar. However, as time passed, he grew more and more skilled in using the golden halo, the crimson-golden avatar, and the eleven sharp blades around the golden halo.
The chase lasted for hours.
In the end, Su Heng could no longer endure it. He had been frozen for a long time so he was physically and mentally exhausted. He roared, “You asked for it!”
Su Heng finally came to a stop. He joined his palms together and made a series of hand gestures. In just a moment, many energy seals appeared around him.
Yu Shangrong waved his sword in the air, and the golden light illuminated the dark void.
The black energy from Su Heng’s body stirred up the black water in all directions.
The sound of roaring rang in the air.
A low groan rang out from the far distance as though it came from the depths of hell.
Yu Shangrong frowned slightly as he surveyed his surroundings.
At the moment when Yu Shangrong was distracted, Su Heng seized the opening. He held his astrolabe with both hands and charged forward. The five Birth Charts on the astrolabe lit up with a black light and shot out at the same time.
Yu Shangrong could not avoid them. At the same time, his avatar returned and merged with him. He held his Longevity Sword and brought it down. “I’ll break your astrolabe!”
At the same time, the crimson-golden avatar held the golden halo with both hands and brought it down in sync with the Longevity Sword.
The sword easily cut through the beams of light. The eleven leaves that were as sharp as blades cut through the beams of light like a hot knife through butter as well.
All of a sudden, the eleven leaves gathered…
Boom!
The astrolabe creaked and dented inward.
Bang!
The impact caused the astrolabe to smash against Su Heng’s chest. He threw his head back and spat out blood. His avatar appeared and disappeared.
‘He’s so strong after sprouting eleven leaves?’ Su Heng endured the surging blood qi in his body as he looked at Yu Shangrong in shock. Just this attack alone had destroyed one of his Birth Charts.
Yu Shangrong was confident that he could block the astrolabe or even beat it back, but he was a little surprised he managed to destroy one of Su Heng’s Birth Charts.
…
“Ding! Destroyed one Birth Chart. Reward: 6,000 points.”
The notification woke Lu Zhou up from his meditative state.
It had been more than half a month; there was still no sign of Yu Shangrong. He was even prepared to go to the Black Water Mystic Cave to look for his second disciple.
During this time, the runic passage between the black lotus domain and the red lotus domain had been opened. It was only a matter of time before the runic passages between the golden lotus domain, red lotus domain, and the black lotus domain were opened. Even if there were no runic passages, with his current status, the other forces would not refuse to lend him their respective runic passages.
Lu Zhou silently recited the mantra for the power of sight.
All he saw was darkness, and he heard the sound of monstrous waves.
All of a sudden, a golden light appeared. In the dark void, it was like a sun that illuminated the surroundings.
An indescribably huge beast emerged from the surface of the black water at this moment. Its bloody mouth was wide open as it leaped up.
Right above the beast’s open mouth was Su Heng who was falling rapidly. His previous actions had attracted the attention of the sea beast king! When he looked down, his heart dropped. It was over.
Su Heng manifested his astrolabe that was as big as the sky. He hoped to use it to block the sea beast’s bloody mouth.
However, the sea beast king was as fast as the wind and seemed to be able to see through Su Heng’s thoughts. It shot out water arrows immediately.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The impact from the sea beast king’s attacks sent the astrolabe flying.
Seeing how close the beast was, Su Heng panicked.
Yu Shangrong, who was looking down from above, kept shooting out energy swords to shine on the astrolabe.
Bang!
The huge beast bit the astrolabe, breaking it!
Su Heng cried out in pain. He was severely injured, losing another Birth Chart. Fear, powerlessness, and despair overwhelmed him. All these negative emotions finally prompted him to shout at the top of his voice, “Yu Shangrong, save me!”
