Chapter 1158: Chapter 952: The Loophole in the Heavenly Dao Chapter 1158: Chapter 952: The Loophole in the Heavenly Dao “Over a hundred years of accumulation, it should be enough…”
Lin Yun looked up, gazed at the sky of the fortieth layer of the heavens, and spoke softly.
“Buzz!”
While speaking, a blood-colored longsword suddenly appeared in Lin Yun’s lowered right palm, its crimson blade pointing diagonally downward, quivering incessantly, with the tip constantly swallowing and emitting blood-colored light. The entire sword radiated a terrifying aura of slaughter; even the surrounding space seemed to warp slightly, indicating the sword’s immense power.
This blood-colored longsword was the Blood Prison Sword.
“Sizzle!”
After the Blood Prison Sword appeared, Lin Yun didn’t hesitate. The next moment, he stepped lightly on the ground, and his figure shot up into the sky. In an instant, he soared to a great height. At that moment, he swung the Blood Prison Sword in his hand fiercely toward the space in front of him.
“Boom!” 𝒏𝒐𝙫𝙥𝙪𝙗.𝒄𝙤𝙢
A sound like thunder from a clear sky rang out, and at the same time, a massive spatial rift appeared.
The next moment, huge swaths of pure Yin energy surged out from it, causing the entire space to tremble and reverberate.
The forty-first layer of the heavens had been shattered by Lin Yun!
With just one sword strike!
“Indeed!”
In the sky, Lin Yun’s lips curved slightly into a smile as he spoke softly.
Over these hundred years, his cultivation had not been in vain. Breaking through the forty-first layer required only one sword strike, and he could feel that he still had plenty of strength to spare.
“Boom!”
The next moment, Lin Yun’s body, hovering mid-air, surged upward again, charging into the spatial rift. His body swiftly absorbed and refined the massive pure energy around him, his aura growing explosively strong.
Meanwhile, throughout various places on the fortieth layer.
“What’s happening?”
“Why is the whole space trembling?”
“It’s almost like… the commotion of a new layer of heaven being broken through?”
“Could it be, has the Blood Emperor broken through another new layer of heaven? It’s only been a little over a hundred years! Even in the other heavens, it’s just over eleven years, a little over a year… In the world of spirits, it’s been less than a day! In such a short time, could the Blood Emperor have broken through another new layer of heaven?”
“Or could it be some other Ghost Practitioner, taking advantage of the great changes in the world, rising rapidly, and then breaking through the forty-first layer?”
Ghost Practitioners who were in the midst of secluded cultivation were jolted awake by the disturbance, flickering outside to look towards the direction from which the noise was coming, feeling shocked in their hearts.
Most of them had experienced several instances of new layers of heaven being broken through and, especially a hundred years ago, when the Blood Emperor broke through four new layers in succession, most of them were present. They were very familiar with the disturbances in the heavens and earth when a new layer was broken through.
At this moment, they were almost certain that this was the commotion of a new layer of heaven being broken through.
If this layer was indeed broken through by the Blood Emperor, they were stunned at how quickly he could shatter a new layer of heaven.
If it wasn’t the Blood Emperor who had done it… Their hearts beat rapidly. Previously, the Blood Emperor had decreed that if any other Ghost Practitioner tried to break through a new layer of heaven, they were to inform him; if he was not around, they were to try their best to stop the intruder.
Before this, they hadn’t sensed any disturbances, and looking at the current commotion, it seemed very likely that the new layer of heaven was already broken through. If it was done by another Ghost Practitioner, they might have failed in their duty.
“It’s the Blood Emperor!”
“The forty-first layer of heaven has been broken through by the Blood Emperor!”
“Excellent, excellent, excellent, the forty-first layer has been shattered, the Netherworld will undergo evolution once more, and our cultivation environment will improve yet again!”
Very quickly, some Ghost Practitioners saw Lin Yun charging toward the spatial rift and excitedly exclaimed.
Since the forty-first layer of heaven was indeed broken through by the Blood Emperor, then there was nothing to worry about. As they heaved a sigh of relief, they were also rejoicing for the Blood Emperor.
From the thirty-seventh layer to the forty-fifth layer had been claimed by the Blood Emperor, and although they all strove eagerly to meet the standard to break through a new layer of heaven, if it were the Blood Emperor who had done it, there was no reason for disappointment.
Just over a hundred years had passed, and in the world of spirits, not even a day had elapsed, yet the Blood Emperor had once again shattered a new layer of heaven after breaking through four new layers. This demonstrated the Blood Emperor’s ability.
They still had a long way to go, so naturally, there was no sense of discontent or loss.
Rather, because the Blood Emperor had shattered another new layer of heaven, not only could they practice close to where the new layer of heaven was breached in the fortieth layer, but the Netherworld’s environment would improve substantially. They could take advantage of this momentum to cultivate more effectively and rapidly.
They were still lacking much, but with this momentum, their progress was swift. While they might not have an opportunity at the forty-first layer, and possibly not the forty-second either,
the forty-third, the forty-fourth, they still might not stand a chance, but continuing like this, what about the forty-fifth layer?
The forty-fifth layer was designated by the Blood Emperor, and even if they still had no opportunity, with the continuous breaking of so many new layers of heaven, even if they were as unintelligent as pigs, they would make great progress!
After the Blood Emperor had broken through so many layers, the subsequent layers would become increasingly difficult to shatter. When the Blood Emperor stopped… that would be their chance!
“You all may cultivate beneath the spatial rift…” Just then, Lin Yun’s voice reached their ears.
In this period, these Ghost Practitioners had also helped him quite a bit. Furthermore, he was inclined to cultivate these Ghost Practitioners, thus he was not stingy.
