The sound was a characteristic of the Dao from the Hall of Swords. When Li Xianyi advanced to Class A, the sound had almost destroyed everything within a ten kilometre radius of Luo City. Li Xianyi had prevented a great catastrophe only by storing the sword intent. But the sound still lingered.
But people had only heard of the sound that spread out across ten kilometres. No one had ever heard of someone who could create Heavenly Visions after advancing to Class B. Lu Shu may have been the first, or even the pioneer of doing so!
In the future, there might be other Class B’s who would be able to create Heavenly Visions. But there was no one before Lu Shu who could do so!
Lu Shu tried to manipulate the invisible swords that filled the sky, but it was too chaotic from beginning to end. It seemed like when the sea of chi parted, the world was changing.
The chi mountain outside the sea of chi toppled over on its side with a crash. The method that Lu Shu and Li Xianyi proposed, worked. The chi mountain was suppressing the entire sea of chi!
Were it not for this chi mountain, his sea of chi would have opened up a long time ago!
But Lu Shu suddenly realised that this was not the scene that Li Xianyi had described when the sea of chi opened. He clearly remembered Li Xianyi’s description, but the floating clouds and the ocean beyond the sea of chi did not surge into its hole, instead, it formed a large whirlpool!
Lu Shu immediately felt that something was wrong. The whirlpool was stirring up the hole of the sea of chi, turning it upside down.
No! This can’t be right! Lu Shu felt that the floating clouds and the ocean did not want to enter the sea of chi, instead, it wanted to fuse with the opponent to form heaven and earth.
The pain was unbearable. Lu Shu’s clothes were wet with his cold sweat, but he could not move.
This process was forcibly transforming his body. Lu Shu did not know what to do, because those who had a similar experience earlier could not provide him with any help.
What Lu Shu had to do now was not to walk on the small, rugged path in the mountains. That path had the footprints of those who had ventured there before, at least he would know the way.
But Lu Shu could not do so. He was creating a new chapter in history for the Dao Practitioners. His sea of chi would form heaven and earth!
Lu Shu suddenly saw the chi mountain, that had collapsed on one side, forming tiny cracks. It produced a clicking noise in his head, like an icy river shattering, fine, yet drawn out!
With a rumble, the chi mountain crumbled into pieces. He saw small, white shadows springing out from the mountain. Lu Shu was confused.
What was happening?! Lu Shu was astonished. Li Xianyi had never said that such things would emerge from the mountain after it had collapsed!
This had completely upended his beliefs. Lu Shu was scared of the small shadows springing out and shouting. “Grandfather, Grandfather!”
Calabash Brothers? Was that you? So what did Pangolin say just before he died?!
This was just too frightening. The things that had happened to Lu Shu after he had embarked on the path of a Practitioner was just not normal…
The small, tiny shadows sprang to their feet as they laughed and played. They directly went inside the Corpsedog. Suddenly it was all clear to Lu Shu. He now knew a tiny bit more about the connection between him and the Corpsedog!
Was this a… spirit?! That can’t be right. Rather than a spirit, it was more like a sword spirit that was a direct successor of the sword energy and Lu Shu!
Why would a spirit be produced right after the chi mountain was worn down and collapsed? The old man had never talked about such a thing!
So the old man’s suggestion, to use the chi mountain and sharpen his skills, was a mistake, right? The chi mountain was actually used to give birth to a sword spirit!
What the… was this old man still reliable…
Lu Shu suddenly woke up with a start. It was as if he could control the paths of the one hundred invisible swords. This was very different from the old man’s ten thousand blades, but these invisible swords could become his greatest trump card, besides the Corpsedog and the Concealed Arrow, to this Class B!
Takashima did not know that the sound of Lu Shu’s Dao only had a radius of three kilometres. But he knew the origin of this Heavenly Vision. Upon his detailed analysis, he did not think that this was the work of a Class A.
But these were beside the point. The main point was that when he had just advanced, his Heavenly Vision did not have a chance to fully form before being interrupted by Lu Shu. He had stopped just before the Class A boundary, he was now in between Class A and the peak of Class B!
This feeling made Takashima furious. But now was not the time to be involved in these kinds of things. Knowing that Lu Shu was not advancing to Class A made him calm down. The Gungnir was coming towards him!
The black katana in Takashima’s hands raised up a wave of blood. The entire fortress shook and almost collapsed under the massive blast. Lu Shu, who was unable to move, was sent flying to a corner. “Ow ow ow…”
Hearing Lu Shu in pain made Coral’s heart hurt. She hurled the thunderbolt with unparalleled power in Takashima’s direction. At the same time, Takashima’s hands were bound with countless blood threads. He launched an attack in Coral’s direction!
Although Takashima was on the Class A boundary, this position still contained the two words “Class A”. On the other hand, even though Coral had awakened Odin’s bloodline, she was still a Class B beginner!
Coral probably could not even defeat Class B expert, let alone a Class A!
Coral was sent flying. Her long platinum hair was messed up. She threw up a mouthful of fresh blood while in midair. Even though this injury was less severe than that of Lu Shu’s, there was not much difference.
Among the uproar, a voice slowly sounded, “If I, Lu Shu, had not been born, then the sword spirit is dark like a long night!”
Takashima turned back, panic-stricken. Coral helped herself up and looked at Lu Shu in pleasant surprise. But… the two of them realised that Lu Shu was still on the ground, unable to move…
What are you acting for if you can’t even move?!
“From Takashima Tairatsu’s distress, +999!”
“From Coral Odin Johnson’s distress, +99!”
Although Lu Shu’s entire skeleton had been injured and he could not move, all the invisible swords within the fortress had turned and returned to Lu Shu. The Corpsedog had also suddenly shot out from his celestial map.
The sword energy of a hundred swords and the Corpsedog formed a massive whirlpool of sword energy, which surged towards Takashima!
In his shock, Takashima raised a blood wall to resist the whirlpool. But the sword energy broke through the blood wall like a cutting machine!
The sword energy disappeared, but so did the blood wall.
In a flash, the Corpsedog had come to Takashima. Takashima stretched out his bloody hands and forcibly gripped the Corpsedog, but he too was thrown back by the Corpsedog’s inertia.
Takashima laughed coldly. If that was the case, the two of you can be buried along with the rest of the Practitioners from the Collection of Gods.
But in the next moment, a small white shadow suddenly sprang out from the Corpsedog. From its figure, it seemed to resemble Lu Shu.
Clap! Then, there was complete silence.
Lu Shu and Coral were slightly muddled, Takashima was even more muddled. The sword spirit flew out of the Corpsedog to Takashima’s face and gave him a slap on the face…
Takashima’s face turned numb. There was even a palm print that was the size of a fingertip on his face. One could clearly see each finger…
Lu Shu was dumbfounded. He did not tell it to do this. Was this sword spirit… so lowly?!
“From Takashima Tairatsu’s distress, +1000!”
Takashima had let his guard down. He completely did not expect this to happen. The Corpsedog had taken advantage of the situation and directly penetrated Takashima’s head!
“From Takashima Tairatsu’s distress, +1000!”
Takashima, on the boundary of Class A and the leader of the Collection of Gods, had died just like that!
