Transcending the Nine Heavens

They were now standing at about ten yards away from each other. As they stood on top of a roof, both sides stared at their opponent intensely while breathing heavily. They stood without making any moves, but the mist surrounding them continued swirling around wildly.

As one would predict, they were about to release a strike that would determine the outcome of this battle!

After a long wait...

"Ahhh...!"

"Yaaa...!"

Two loud roars rang out simultaneously! Immediately, Chu Yang’s entire body was in great shock as a chill ran down his spine. It felt as if he had just been hit with an intense electric shock...

Great! It has finally begun!

Getting hurt this time around is not a waste after all!

The two people appeared as two black meteors as they flew through the air. As they shot towards each other at top speed, they left behind a long hazy trail!

The sword point of the Hei Mo King level master radiated a glow so think that it almost appeared like it was solid. With both his hands gripping tightly onto the hilt of the sword, both master and sword merged into one straight line, ready to strike a deadly blow.

Such a move could not be renounced!

Yin Wu Fa’s eyes were wide open and his eyeballs looked like they were about to pop out of their sockets. With one palm in front of the other, his fingers curved like a tiger grabbing tightly onto its prey. His body curved immediately as he flew up. Midway through his flight, he suddenly pushed his legs straight out and his speed increased greatly!

His eyes were full of eagerness!

The moment had finally arrived!

"Stop! The two of you, stop right now!" A loud roar came from a far distance as a few figures in black shot forward hastily. Surprisingly, the fastest person had a majestic crown on his head.

Yet another King level master!

He had yelled at this juncture, hoping that the two would stop their battle to the death.

However, he was just too late!

Two loud roars were heard as the two struck each other with all their might.

Boom boom boom! Yin Wu Fa had used all his strength. Within just moments of contact, his tiger claw had slammed into the Hei Mo King level master a few dozen times! The sounds rang out endlessly like firecrackers that were set on fire!

Pop pop pop! The Hei Mo King level master had not used any less force. His black sword was like a furious dragon. In the blink of an eye, he had pierced Yin Wu Fa’s body on multiple spots.

Stab... Pull... Stab... This happened for about seven to eight times...

He created a new blood spout each time he pulled out his sword.

For a fleeting moment, each of them could clearly see their opponent’s face soaked in blood... In this very instant, they suddenly felt a sense of empathy and a hint of regret...

I have finally killed King of Hell Chu! Yin Wu Fa’s emaciated face was lit up with a smile as he thought to himself...

I have finally killed a sixth grade King level master of the Mo clan! The cruel eyes of the Hei Mo King level master were displaying extreme satisfaction!

Shortly after, both sides went past each other as they continued to fly forward!

Eventually, Yin Wu Fa turned out to be a little more astute. At the most critical juncture, he had retained one last breath and turned into a golden rainbow which was covered in fresh blood as he used all his might to escape.

The other man in black must be a King level master as well, but I am the only King level master at Golden Horse Riders Department! He must be an enemy as well!

Even if I die, my body must not fall into the hands of the enemy!

With this great motivation, Yin Wu Fa gathered his last breath and disappeared without a trace.

The person in black who had just arrived was one of the Saber Sword King Pair of the Hei Mo clan, a Saber King! Seeing this scene, he was immensely distressed and used all his might to rush forward and catch the Sword King as he was falling down. When he landed, he staggered in great shock.

It is too late to chase the enemy! Let’s check on the Sword King’s injuries first!

He was absolutely taken aback! All of the Sword King’s ribs were shattered; not one bone was left intact. All his internal organs had been destroyed. His meridians were broken at many places and the energy in his dantian was completely drained. While his hand was still maintaining a tight grip on his Hei Mo sword, his arm was broken at seven or eight different places!

He would surely not be able to live, judging from these injuries!

Without any delay, the Saber King immediately transferred energy to the Sword King’s body. As he transferred his energy, he felt somewhat relieved. His is still able to take in energy... That means there is still hope!

"It’s... It’s the people of the Mo..." The Sword King turned his body and bore the pain without any groans. He continued weakly, "Third... and Ninth are... d... dead. The... the other four are... all severely injured!"

The Saber King was stunned upon hearing this news!

"There was only one opponent?" Asked the Saber King.

The Sword King had no energy to answer him. He closed his eyes gradually as a look of dismay appeared on his face.

"Junior martial brother, don’t think too much. We have to take care of your injuries first! We’ll talk when you get better!" Even though the Saber King was in extreme panic, he concealed it and said, "Don’t worry. I am sure that you will be fine! You must hang on!"

"I won’t make it..." The Sword King released a dry cough and said weakly, "Before coming here... he... was injured..."

The Saber King remained composed as he walked into the inn. He witnessed chaos in the inn, with four subordinates still lying on the floor. Next to them were two icy corpses. His eyes were filled with fury and hatred.

"Two of you, go and find doctors! Even if they are in Iron Cloud Citadel, bring them to me! Kill anyone who does not comply!"

"Three of you, begin investigating immediately!" The Saber King attempted to suppress his anger as he gritted his teeth and continued, "That guy is seriously injured; I’m sure that he will not be able to run far! You must find him at all cost! I wish to mince him into ten thousand pieces!"

Immediately, the six people in black carried out their newly-assigned duties. Two people went out at once. The other four carried their four injured colleagues into their rooms carefully. Shortly after, three of them left to complete their task.

The one who was left behind had to deal with the bodies of his colleagues... The entire inn was filled with a gloomy atmosphere.

Who would have thought that two King level masters and twelve Revered Martial Artists went out and would eventually meet such a great loss at Iron Cloud Citadel!

"Figure out a way to notify the clan!" The Saber King kept his hands on the Sword King’s back and concentrated on transferring energy to him while giving out more orders, "We need to know what action the clan wants to take. Notify them now! Quickly!"

"We must get to the root of this issue and find out what exactly happened. We have to figure out why members of the Mo clan came here out of nowhere and which one of the Five Great Heavenly Kings had made his move!!!"

Meanwhile, Chu Yang had vanished long ago!

After having seen the Saber King fly forward faster than the wind, Chu Yang did not dare to show his face. With his head facing down, he dragged his own body to hide behind a wall.

Judging from the outcome of the final battle, he was certain that the two King level masters would either die or minimally never be able to ever recover their martial power! Chu Yang was absolutely satisfied with this outcome!

He knew that one of the King level masters was definitely a subordinate of Diwu Qing Rou, while the other was the person who had injured Qing Wu! In fact, Chu Yang felt that death was not enough to pay for their sins!

Single-handedly, he had directed and watched a drama at no cost. Chu Yang felt extremely contented. Even though his organs were suffering and his whole body was drained, his mind was ecstatic.

That was really fun!

King level masters fighting to the death! What’s more, there were fighting with a skewed mentality.

The Hei Mo King level master actually thought that Yin Wu Fa was a member of the Mo clan, while Yin Wu Fa thought I was his opponent!

What a crazy occurrence! If either of these parties ever finds out that they were fooled by me the entire time, they would surely spit blood and die of anger!

Furthermore, what was so great about all of this was that it was purely based on luck. Chu Yang felt extremely satisfied. However, there was one thing that bothered him: He had to put in a great deal of effort to drag his injured body and find a horse carriage to return to Bu Tian Pavilion.

The two Revered Martial Artists from Golden Horse Riders Department were truly skilled. In a short period of time, they had managed to uncover a layout map of Bu Tian Pavilion. They were studying Bu Tian Pavilion’s architecture at present.

Nonetheless, they had to find the best route for their King level official to easily assassinate King of Hell Chu...

He had not been out for any field work for many years... They got overly excited at the thought of his deadly lightning strike and overbearing air!

Iron Cloud Nation finally has the chance to see our King level master in action!

As they remained focused on their research, the sound of a person ripping through the wind as he shot forward was heard. At the very next instant, Yin Wu Fa’s bloody body smashed through the window.

"Plop!" Yin Wu Fa dropped to the floor. Unable to get on his feet, he rolled on the ground a few times and lifted his head. His face was so terrifying that it looked like that of a demon!

The moment they saw him, they were both astonished. Their spirits nearly left their bodies.

The body of the King level master had wounds all over it. Each part of his body - the stomach, thighs, right chest, and shoulders had a bloody hole with blood still oozing out.

Furthermore, there was a massive hole on his back!

This was a wound that pierced right through his body!

Who could be this brutal and powerful? I can’t believe that he could make our King level master be in this state.

At this moment, the two were left terrified; their hearts had practically stopped beating!

"Quick... Leave this place immediately..." Yin Wu Fa could only say so much before he spat out more blood. His entire body shivered as his voice became fragmented, "King of Hell Chu... is also... a... King level... master. I am... seriously... injured... Send out a notice... immediately... retreat..."

He was unable to speak any further and became unconscious!

Frantically, the two attempted to stop Yin Wu Fa’s bleeding. It was such a horrific wound that the two Revered Martial Artists were left petrified.

He’s so seriously injured, but yet he still managed to get back!

"Wait a minute... The King level master just mentioned that King of Hell Chu is also a King level master...? Could it be that he had just fought with King of Hell Chu?"

No wonder...

The two of them tried their best to help Yin Wu Fa quickly. Subsequently, they left the place. They contacted the Iron Horse Riders immediately after and found another place to seek refuge in.

Soon after, an Invisible Falcon flew out of another corner of Iron Cloud Citadel. It flew into the air and disappeared into the sky instantly.

The minister has to be notified of everything that has just happened in Iron Cloud Citadel!
