Multiverse Skill System

Page 243

Yi Shuihan stared at Ling Yunzi in disbelief, feeling like he'd been screwed over.

Damn it, I can't stand it. If this continues, I'll be disgusted to the point of losing my IQ.

"Kill the young one and the old one will come. Fine, you can all die together."

The golden fist light tore through space, and the already unstable space was directly ripped apart, with spatial cracks appearing and continuously extending.

"you……"

Before he could finish speaking, Chu Fan's father was swallowed up by the spatial rift. Of the others, three were at the Nascent Soul stage: one died, one was unconscious, and one was seriously injured. Two were at the Tribulation Transcending stage. Ling Yunzi escaped by turning into a green ball of energy at the last second. The other Tribulation Transcending stage cultivator seemed to be a body refiner and managed to withstand the attack, but he didn't look to be in good shape either.

Chapter 616, Destroying the Demon Lord

"Who are you?"

Ling Yunzi looked at Yi Shuihan with apprehension, his heart filled with turbulent waves. He was extremely confident in his own strength, but he believed that even if he encountered the strongest Po Sha Demon Lord in the Kunxu Secret Realm, he would not be in such a sorry state.

Although he didn't seem to be hurt, Yi Shuihan's attack was clearly a casual strike, yet it was enough to threaten his life. So what would happen if the opponent had used his full strength?

There are righteous and demonic forces everywhere, and Kunxu is no exception. Moreover, in terms of individual strength, the demonic path is stronger than the righteous path. It is only because the people of the demonic path are unruly and do not know how to unite that the righteous path has been able to suppress them. But even so, the righteous path has not gained an absolute advantage.

The number one demonic cultivator, Po Sha Demon Lord, is a being who stands at the peak of the Tribulation Transcending stage. He is also rumored to have the opportunity to break the curse and enter the Immortal Realm. He is a being that can only be resisted by the combined efforts of the leaders of the major righteous sects.

In Ling Yunzi's eyes, Yi Shuihan was even more terrifying than Po Sha Mojun, because even now he still couldn't sense Yi Shuihan's cultivation aura. If they were both at the Tribulation Transcending stage, it would be understandable that he couldn't see through him since the other party hadn't made a move, but since they had already made a move and he still couldn't see through him, then it wasn't that simple.

"Could it be that he is an immortal?"

When this thought crossed Ling Yunzi's mind, he had an urge to run away immediately. Compared to helping his disciple avenge his master, his own life was more important.

“From the very beginning, I said that I am the person you are looking for. Why didn’t you believe me? I killed your disciple, so naturally I am your enemy.”

Yi Shuihan was actually somewhat surprised. He had originally planned to annihilate the entire enemy force in one move, so he used the power of the silver level, which is the so-called power of the immortal realm. Although he had only barely reached the immortal realm, it was still far beyond what these tribulation stage cultivators could compare to. He never expected that the attack would be weakened by a great deal after it was launched, which allowed Ling Yunzi and the others to escape a calamity.

It's obvious that this didn't happen because of Ling Yunzi, but because of their current location. The Blackwater Demon Lord's cave, even after so much time, still retains some power, indirectly saving Ling Yunzi and the others' lives.

"You're all silent now? Didn't you come here to get revenge? Hurry up and get to work! The sooner we finish, the sooner I can call it a day."

“Fellow Daoist, you jest. What grudge do we have? I know my unworthy disciple’s character. He must have offended you and deserved to be killed. I didn’t come here to seek revenge, but to thank you. I’ve wanted to clean house for a long time, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it because he was my disciple. Thanks to you for killing this wicked disciple, I can finally get what I wanted.”

Ling Yunzi's tone was very sincere. If a handsome guy had said it, it would have been fine, but coming from someone as ugly as him made Yi Shuihan feel even more disgusted.

Damn it, how did such a shameless scoundrel manage to become an elder of a righteous sect? Is everyone in the world blind?

"Oh, so how are you going to thank me?"

Yi Shuihan clearly saw a hint of joy flash in Ling Yunzi's eyes when he said those words.

"This is one million spirit stones, please accept it, fellow Daoist."

When Yi Shuihan saw the spatial ring that Ling Yunzi handed over, his first reaction was, "Wow, what a tycoon!"

A million spirit stones—Yi Shuihan had never seen so many spirit stones before. Of course, with his current wealth, he didn't care about spirit stones; only immortal stones were the real currency.

However, he might not need it, but his woman certainly could!

Adhering to the principle of "don't refuse something that's offered to you for free," Yi Shuihan immediately accepted the spatial ring.

Seeing that Yi Shuihan had accepted his gifts, Ling Yunzi breathed a sigh of relief. Although he felt a pang of regret, he felt it was all worth it.

"Now that we've achieved our goal, we'll be going."

As Ling Yunzi spoke, he was about to make a hand seal to leave.

Yi Shuihan made no comment whatsoever, as if he hadn't seen this scene at all.

"Hmph, once I return to my sect, I'll expose the matter of Blackwater True Monarch's cave dwelling, and spread rumors that there are people here who can break through to the Immortal Realm. I don't believe that everyone in the entire Kunxu will be tempted."

In truth, Ling Yunzi wasn't there for revenge. Revenge was just a side effect; his real purpose was to explore the Blackwater True Monarch's Mansion. The reason he shouted that at the beginning was to impress Chu Fan's father and the others, to win their hearts and minds. Otherwise, why would he make such a big fuss over the death of a mere disciple who wasn't even at the Nascent Soul stage, even though he used to value that disciple?

Ling Yunzi is the kind of person who holds grudges and seeks revenge. Realizing the gap between himself and Yi Shuihan, he naturally wouldn't do something reckless. Instead, he hid his hatred and planned to use someone else to do his dirty work.

In Ling Yunzi's view, even if Yi Shuihan is truly a celestial being, so what? The power of the entire Kunxu Secret Realm is not as simple as it appears on the surface. As far as he knows, his Lingxiao Sect possesses only one power capable of unleashing the strength of a celestial being. This power has always been in the hands of the Lingxiao Sect leader and will only be used in the event of a crisis that threatens the sect's survival.

The other top sects also have this kind of foundation. If Yi Shuihan is not from the Immortal Realm, he will be besieged because of the inheritance of the Black Water True Monarch. If he is from the Immortal Realm, he will be killed by several major sects using their foundations. An opportunity to become an immortal is a temptation that can definitely draw out their foundations.

In fact, Ling Yunzi genuinely hoped that Yi Shuihan was in the Immortal Realm, so that he would have a slight chance of breaking through the tribulation and entering the Immortal Realm.

"what!"

Ling Yunzi ultimately failed to leave the cave. A blood-red blade flashed and cleaved him in two on the spot.

A phantom Ling Yunzi reappeared in the same spot; this was his primordial spirit, his physical body already destroyed.

"Demon Lord of Destruction! It's you!"

Ling Yunzi's face was filled with panic and fear.

"Indeed, it is me. I never expected to encounter such an opportunity just by coming out to beg for alms. Blackwater Demon Lord, tsk tsk, my chance to break through lies here."

An old man dressed in blood-red robes emerged from the shadows, holding a blood-red knife in his hand. He exuded murderous intent, and as he stood there, it was as if the entire space had become a battlefield of slaughter.

Chapter 617, I Won't Tell You

Ling Yunzi had just revealed the identity of the newcomer, who was none other than the strongest Demon Lord of the Kunxu Secret Realm, the Breaking Kill Demon Lord.

Yi Shuihan knew about the arrival of the Demon Lord of Destruction and had noticed it from the beginning; he was only a few breaths later than Ling Yunzi and the others.

However, Yi Shuihan did not reveal this. In his opinion, the Demon Lord of Breaking Kill was quite strong. Even if he were caught off guard by the power of that move just now, he would be injured.

Yi Shuihan's cultivation system is not the same as that of this world, but the realm of Dao Integration and Tribulation Transcending are corresponding.

With such combat power, it's no wonder he's the strongest in Kunxu. Yi Shuihan estimated that he and his opponent were at the same level, and although he could win, it definitely wouldn't be easy.

However, the gap between the two is now more than a hundredfold, and if Yi Shuihan wanted to, he could still defeat Po Sha Demon Lord in one move.

"Fellow Daoist, please help me! This person is the great demon king Po Sha of the Kunxu Realm, a mortal enemy of our righteous path. More than 100,000 innocent people have died at his hands. He is a being that every member of our righteous path has the right to kill."

Ling Yunzi knew that even at his peak, he could only survive. Now that his physical body was destroyed, he would definitely not escape the clutches of the Demon Lord of Destruction unless something unexpected happened. Therefore, he could only place his hopes on Yi Shuihan.

Upon hearing Ling Yunzi's words, Po Sha Mojun's expression also tightened. He had seen Yi Shuihan make a move before and already regarded Yi Shuihan as someone on the same level as him, so he naturally wouldn't underestimate Yi Shuihan.

"When did I ever say I was on the righteous path?"

Yi Shuihan smiled slightly.

Ling Yunzi was dumbfounded.

"Hahaha, Ling Yunzi, you won't escape today. Becoming a soul under my blade won't be a disgrace to your status as a Tribulation Transcending expert."

The Demon Lord of Destruction laughed loudly.

“You…” Ling Yunzi’s primordial spirit was shaken, and he was filled with despair. Realizing that there was no hope of escaping, he made an astonishing move.

"You knew from the beginning that you were going to kill the Demon Lord, didn't you? How dare you play me like that? I'll make you pay with your life."

Ling Yunzi teleported to Yi Shuihan's side, and then his primordial spirit grew rapidly before he self-destructed.

The self-destruction of a Tribulation Transcending stage cultivator is extremely powerful, especially at such close range. If Yi Shuihan were only at the Tribulation Transcending stage, he would definitely not fare well and could very well be blown to death.

Even the Demon Lord of Destruction was startled when he saw Ling Yunzi self-destruct. Fortunately, he was far away and powerful, so he was not seriously injured. However, he knew that if he had been in Yi Shuihan's position, he would have been seriously injured.

Not to mention the Demon Lord Po Sha, all the people Ling Yunzi brought died instantly in the explosion, including the one who was undergoing tribulation.

When the aftershocks of the explosion subsided, Yi Shuihan's figure reappeared, and the scene that was revealed made Po Sha Mojun's pupils shrink and his whole body tense up.

"You actually tore a hole in my clothes, Ling Yunzi, tell me how you want to die."

Yi Shuihan's voice was neither sad nor happy, but it sent chills down Po Sha Mojun's spine. Under such an explosion, his clothes only had a tear, and if Yi Shuihan hadn't pointed it out, he wouldn't have even noticed where the tear was.

You have the nerve to say it's a tiny cut less than 1cm long.

Upon seeing the small tear on Yi Shuihan's sleeve, Po Sha Mojun was speechless.

"But didn't Ling Yunzi say he should be dead? What did he mean by saying that?"

Before the Demon Lord could think it through, Yi Shuihan made a move.

He reached out and grabbed at the void, and a beam of light flew rapidly from the void into his hand.

"That 'golden cicada shedding its shell' trick was quite effective. If it weren't for dealing with me, you really could have survived today."

In Yi Shuihan's hands, there was something that was less than half the size of a palm, which was Ling Yunzi's primordial spirit shrunk dozens of times.

It has to be said that although Ling Yunzi looks inexperienced, his methods are truly extraordinary. If Yi Shuihan hadn't been so powerful that he had long exceeded Ling Yunzi's understanding, Ling Yunzi would definitely have survived this time. No one could have imagined that he could still live after self-destructing.

"Fellow Daoist, Fellow Daoist, I was wrong. Please spare me. I am willing to serve you as your slave."

Ling Yunzi was truly desperate this time. He never expected that Yi Shuihan would not only survive but also expose him.

"I think it would be better if you died."

With a forceful pull, he crushed Ling Yunzi to death in his hand.

Now only Yi Shuihan and Po Sha Mojun were left on the scene. Yi Shuihan didn't speak, and neither did Po Sha Mojun. The two stood there quietly, as if they were playing a game of "Red Light, Green Light".

Breaking Demon Lord had never felt so nervous since reaching the Tribulation Transcending stage. He was exceptionally talented and unmatched in combat power among those of the same realm. After reaching the Tribulation Transcending stage, he had become the number one in the entire Kunxu. Even as a demon, he could go anywhere in the world. Even if he were surrounded by all the righteous Tribulation Transcending experts in the entire Kunxu Secret Realm, he would still have a way to escape. But now, he felt uncertain. If he really faced Yi Shuihan, he felt that he might die.

The strongest being in the Kunxu Secret Realm is acting so cautiously; if others saw this, they would be absolutely astonished.

On the surface, Po Sha Mo Jun appeared to have a more imposing aura than Yi Shui Han. However, only Po Sha Mo Jun himself knew how much pressure he was under at this moment. As a Tribulation Transcending stage cultivator, he even had fine sweat on his forehead.

"You want to break through?"

After a moment, Yi Shuihan slowly spoke.

"what!?"

Po Sha Mo Jun did not expect Yi Shui Han to ask this question.

"I'm asking you if you want to break through?"

Looking at Yi Shuihan with suspicion, the Demon Lord of Breaking Kill didn't know what Yi Shuihan was thinking, but finally he honestly said, "That's right, breaking through the tribulation and glimpsing that immortal realm is my lifelong wish."

Yi Shuihan could tell that Po Sha Mojun was telling the truth, but it was all for naught.

Do you know why you can't break through?

Does he know?

The Demon Lord of Destruction's heart skipped a beat. This question had troubled him for many years, and he wanted to know the answer all the time.

"Please, fellow Daoist, no, senior, inform me."

"Don't tell you!"

"..."

"I won't tell you!" These words echoed in the mind of the Demon Lord of Destruction, giving him an urge to kill.

If you're not going to tell me, why are you asking me? Are you playing me?

Anger began to rise, and even though he knew that Yi Shuihan might be stronger than him, Po Sha Mojun could hardly hold back.

Chapter 618, 10% Success Rate

"Just kidding. Actually, it's no harm in telling you, it's not a secret anyway."

Just as the Demon Lord Po Sha was about to erupt, Yi Shuihan spoke up, allowing the Demon Lord Po Sha to regain his composure.

"The problem with your inability to break through is not you, nor is it the cultivation method you practice, but rather that you are in the wrong place."

"Is this the wrong place?"

"Broken Kill Demon Lord," he murmured, not understanding what Yi Shuihan meant.

"This world does not allow people of higher levels to appear. If you want to break through, you are defying the heavens. To succeed in breaking through, you must have the strength to shatter this world. If I am not mistaken, everyone who tries to break through will eventually die under divine punishment!"

This time, the explanation was quite thorough, but the Demon Lord of Destruction could not accept such an answer because he knew that no matter what, he could not possibly possess the strength to break this world.

"Why is this happening? Weren't there people who were able to break through in ancient times?"

"In ancient times, this world was very powerful, but it was destroyed in that great battle, so much so that it could not support stronger beings. Heaven did not allow immortals to appear. I think you have more or less guessed this, but you just don't want to believe it."

"..."

"Are you an immortal, senior?"

They waited anxiously for Yi Shuihan's answer.

"good."

Yi Shuihan nodded, giving an affirmative answer.

This answer brought a smile to the face of the Demon Lord of Destruction. In his view, since Yi Shuihan could become an immortal, there must be other ways.

Po Sha Mo Jun never suspected that Yi Shui Han was lying, because judging from Yi Shui Han's previous display of strength, it would be truly inexplicable if he wasn't an immortal.

"Please, senior, tell me how to become an immortal. I am willing to pay any price!"
