NOVPUBChapter 1106: Chapter 929: The Three-Eyed Sovereign, Breaking through the 37th Heaven!_2 Chapter 1106: Chapter 929: The Three-Eyed Sovereign, Breaking through the 37th Heaven!_2 I could only give up.
Once he achieved his current goal, he could turn back to kill these audacious Ghost Practitioners who dared to challenge him.
Whoosh!
Thinking this, Lin Yun stomped his foot and flashed into the passageway.
“Did he… really let me go?” The mid-level Saint King Ghost Practitioner, who Lin Yun was about to kill, was in the midst of shock and despair. Seeing this, he couldn’t help but be slightly startled.
Based on the other’s stance just a moment ago, there was not the slightest indication he would spare him!
“Hm? Is there movement over there? It turns out a Cultivator has arrived. That’s right, the other is a Spirit, and all Ghost Practitioners kill on sight. Discovered by other Cultivators, one must naturally retreat. I wonder who came and scared the other away…”
The very next moment, as he perceived the distant commotion, his heart suddenly understood. With that thought, he hastened to solidify his body while looking up.
No matter who the other was, he had to recover his strength quickly. Otherwise, in the harsh environment of the Netherworld, if the other seized his period of weakness and decided to kill him, it was certainly possible.
Just then, two Ghost Practitioners entered from a space rift nearby, also looking at the mid-level Saint King with a hint of surprise.
These two Ghost Practitioners were none other than Emperor Wu and his mid-level Saint King Ghost Practitioner friend.
“Wasn’t that Spirit merely at the upper Saint Lord Realm? How is it so easy for him to deal with a mid-level Saint King Realm Ghost Practitioner? If we had arrived even a bit later, that upper Saint Lord Spirit might have already killed this mid-level Saint King Ghost Practitioner…” Emperor Wu said astounded.
The scene before him had nearly overturned his imagination. How could there be such a powerful upper Saint Lord Spirit in this world?
“That upper Saint Lord Spirit possesses such terrifying strength…” His mid-level Saint King Ghost Practitioner friend also gasped.
In that moment, recalling how he had pursued the other, attempting to intercept him, he was fraught with dread.
Luckily, he was somewhat far from the other and hadn’t caught up. He knew this mid-level Saint King, whose strength was not superior to his, perhaps even somewhat inferior. Now, if they had arrived a little later, this mid-level Saint King Ghost Practitioner might have been killed by the upper Saint Lord Spirit.
How much time had passed? Was it even the duration of a breath? Yet such severe damage had been inflicted!
If the upper Saint Lord Spirit had attacked him just now, how long could he have withstood?
With this in mind, he felt increasingly fortunate.
Luckily, he had been somewhat distant from the other and had not caught up.
“Karlso, what happened just now? How could that little Spirit have injured you so gravely?” Emperor Wu stepped forward to the mid-level Saint King Ghost Practitioner and demanded in a heavy voice.
By now, he was even more convinced that what his friend had said was correct: the upper Saint Lord Spirit must possess an extremely remarkable treasure. However, he still needed to ask for details to be mentally prepared.
“Karlso has seen the great Emperor Wu! I was in the midst of refining a treasure and am not clear on what happened. That Spirit, as soon as he entered the thirty-fifth layer of heaven, attacked me…” The mid-level Saint King Ghost Practitioner Karlso inwardly groaned, his barely consolidated ghostly body hurriedly saluted, speaking very nervously.
What he feared came to pass. The arriving Ghost Practitioners turned out to be the ruler of the thirty-fourth layer of heaven and one of the Nine Emperors, Emperor Wu, and the mid-level Saint King Ghost Practitioner Black Face. He had hoped Emperor Wu and Black Face would ignore him and go about their business, but unfortunately, he still got their attention.
Hearing Emperor Wu ask for information about the upper Saint Lord Spirit, he wasn’t quite sure about Emperor Wu’s relationship with the upper Saint Lord Spirit and didn’t dare to tell the truth.
“What? You dare not tell the truth? Are you seeking death?” However, before Karlso could finish his words, Emperor Wu’s gaze turned icy as he said sternly.
Karlso had forgotten that if he were not injured, he might still be able to conceal some of his thoughts, tell half-truths, and possibly deceive Emperor Wu. But now, gravely injured with his soul body in a state of instability, he couldn’t hide many of his thoughts anymore and was immediately detected by Emperor Wu as being dishonest in his words.
“Boom!”
Before the sound of his voice had faded, a terrifying Domain Power rose from Emperor Wu and swiftly pressed down towards Karlso.
Karlso’s ghostly body, which had just begun to solidify, was almost scattered by this frightening Domain Power. Karlso, horrified in his heart, hastily shouted, “Emperor Wu, spare my life! Emperor Wu, spare my life! It was not that Spirit who attacked me first, but I who struck first. The Spirit counterattacked and gravely wounded me…”
“Really? Tell me in detail, and if you dare to lie again, be careful I may kill you!” Emperor Wu said coldly.
“I dare not, I dare not anymore…” The mid-level Saint King Ghost Practitioner Karlso quickly recounted the recent events to Emperor Wu without daring to omit a single detail.
“So it seems, the sword in that upper Saint Lord Spirit’s hand might be a very powerful treasure…” Soon after hearing everything, Emperor Wu mused.
Since he broke through the thirty-fourth layer of the Netherworld and became one of the Nine Emperors, many years had passed without obtaining a suitable weapon. This information indeed suited his interests very much.
Karlso kept his head low, not daring to interject.
“Hmph! You lied to me before, your death penalty is exempted, but punishment cannot be avoided. Go reflect in the cycle of reincarnation!” However, in the next moment, Emperor Wu raised his eyes to Karlso and, with a cold snort, said.
