1898 Chapter 1,793, remnant soul toad
In exchange, Su Yu went to the sacred mountain to obtain the array stones.
After the discussion was over, Su Yu returned to his room. After thinking for a moment, he took out two items that Sima Biyun had given him.
One of them was a black stone, a star stone!
The other nine were all in her hands. Once she got rid of the dark king, she would hand them over to Su Yu.
The other item was a token engraved with the words ‘Qing Ming’.
This was the command medallion of the Prefecture Master of the Azure Nether World Palace!
Su Yu waved his hand, and master Bao Kun and another puppet appeared.
He threw out an extremely black robe of dust and dust and put it on the puppet. At the same time, he hung the command medallion of the Azure Nether World on his body.
Then, he separated a part of his soul and entered the puppet.
“Slowly fuse it for a year and take control of this puppet,”Su Yu said calmly.
“Yes.”The palace lord of the Azure Underworld Palace nodded in a daze.
As such, he was the sole leader of the three great sects of the Southern Region.
The Moon Worship Sect, the dustless moon sect, and the Azure Underworld Palace.
With Sima Biyun’s assistance, it could be said that the southern region’s forces were basically under Su Yu’s control.
With such a massive force, it would be much easier to find the emperor’s killing sword.
Two days later, there was news from a secret agent from the Wind Cloud Villa.
The emperor’s killing sword that had escaped had been injured and had gone north without a trace!
Meanwhile, the disciple of the Master of the Azure Underworld Mansion, Gu Xing, had escaped from the wind cloud villa overnight and was nowhere to be found.
After hearing this, Su Yu heaved a sigh of relief.
What he was most worried about was that disciple named Gu Xing obtaining the emperor’s killing sword.
Since they had split up, there was still a chance.
“Send out an order to the five sects to arrest Gu Xing,”Su Yu ordered.
Sima Biyun nodded and passed down an order through nameless Lu. He sent out an order in the name of the five sects alliance.
Soon, the news spread throughout the five sects alliance. Gu Xing’s arrest was posted everywhere..
Half a month later.
Inside the sealed sword pavilion, Zhan Wushuang and Hanxuan were walking in the city.
“Senior brother, your reputation can be said to have spread throughout half of the dark star civilization,”Hanxuan joked. She was not worried about his safety at all.
Because the creatures of the dark star civilization were afraid of the sunlight, they all wore black robes and did not show their true faces to others.
The so-called wanted portrait only had a physical appearance but not a true face. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Zhan wushuang smiled lightly, but his mood was very heavy.
The emperor’s killing sword was frightened and fled to a very far place. It would not appear again for a short period of time.
“Senior brother, do you think the five sect leaders are stupid? They knew that you were not wanted, but they still wanted you.”Hanxuan curled her lips and said.
Zhan wushuang shook his head and said, “He is not looking for me. He is using this to send a message to me. He will not let me get the emperor killing sword easily!”
“Are you talking about the five sect leaders?”
“No, I am talking about the moon worship sect leader!”Zhan Wushuang’s eyes were very serious.
Hanxuan was surprised, “Him?”
“That’s right! Among the leaders of the five sects, the most unfathomable one is not the master of the wind and cloud villa, but the leader of the Moon Worship Sect!”Zhan wushuang thought of the stone room, the other party had destroyed the scene of him obtaining the life-killing sword at the critical moment, and his heart was unusually heavy.
The four leaders had plotted against each other, but the one who plotted the most was actually the leader of the Moon Worship sect!
He had actually seen through the reason he had come to the stone room!
And he had been prepared!
Just this terrifying insight alone made Zhan wushuang raise his guard.
“That moon worship sect leader who is the weakest among the five sects alliance?”Hanxuan said in confusion, “Is he really that powerful?”
Zhan wushuang nodded slowly and looked towards the northern horizon, “I have a feeling that the greatest resistance to me obtaining the emperor’s killing sword might be him!”
At this moment.
At the border between the north and the south, in a desolate grassland.
A man dressed in a black robe was walking alone in the grassland where fierce beasts roamed.
When the fierce beasts hidden in the dark discovered this person, they did not pounce on him. Instead, they turned around and ran, afraid that this person would discover them.
When they came to a lake, the black-robed man stopped and took off the black robe on his head, revealing the face of a silver-haired human.
He was Su Yu, who was heading towards the sacred mountain.
This place already belonged to the sacred mountain, and it was also the central area of the dark star civilization.
With the Sacred Mountain as the center, it radiated a radius of hundreds of billions of square kilometers, all of which were the sacred mountain’s territory.
In terms of size, it was comparable to the combined area of the Moon Worship sect and the dustless moon sect.
The grassland before them was a part of the sacred mountain’s territory.
“Sima Biyun probably didn’t expect that even if I didn’t help her obtain the array stones, I would still come to the sacred mountain.”Su Yu touched a jade pendant on his waist. “Because the scabbard is also on the Sacred Mountain!”
This was the information Su Yu had obtained from his solitary dream.
The scabbard was on the Sacred Mountain!
Moreover, it was at the peak of the Sacred Mountain, where the dark king was resting.
Firstly, he had to find the scabbard, and secondly, he had to obtain the array stones.
He had to think long and hard about it. At the very least, he had to have a detailed understanding of the sacred mountain.
It was a pity that the leaders of the ten great factions were never qualified to visit the sacred mountain. They didn’t know the specific details of the sacred mountain either.
Su Yu could only think of a way himself.
He had just entered the range of the sacred mountain for ten days, and it would still take him half a year to reach the sacred mountain.
With Su Yu’s Yin-yang escape art, half a year was enough to span the entire dark star civilization. It would only take him two months to travel a few hundred trillion miles.
The reason he needed half a year was because of the special pressure in the range of the sacred mountain.
He could clearly sense where the pressure was the moment he entered.
The circulation of divine power in his body was rather sluggish, less than half of what it normally was.
Moreover, the higher he went, the greater the pressure.
“Is this the pressure of the sacred mountain? The rumors are not false!”Before coming here, he had already flipped through a simple piece of information.
Within the range of the sacred mountain, all living beings were suppressed. That kind of suppressive power came from the sacred mountain.
Whether it was the Emperor of Heaven and Earth or the Overlord, their power would be suppressed by more than half.
Moreover, they could not fly at high altitude or teleport.
They could only walk on their feet and fly at low altitude.
Therefore, the journey would be particularly long.
He stopped by the Silver Lake in front of him to recover the divine power that he had used up. He was exhausted after using the Taiji yin-yang wings.
Sitting cross-legged by the lake, Su Yu immediately closed his eyes and began to recover.
However, just as he closed his eyes, he opened his eyes slightly and stared at the Silver Lake in surprise.
He sensed thousands of strange souls quickly emerging from the bottom of the lake and rushing toward him.
Those souls were all incomplete, as if they were born with it.
Gulp --
Immediately, a creature that looked like a toad jumped out of the Silver Lake and jumped toward Su Yu.
The toad’s cultivation was not weak. It was actually at the level of a gold overlord.
It was quite dangerous to meet a silver overlord or below.
Su Yu was ready to kill it without batting an eyelid. Suddenly, an ear-piercing arrow whistled from behind, piercing the toad and killing it on the spot.
When the toads that emerged from the water saw this scene, they lay on the surface of the Silver Lake without moving, staring at the two people who were slowly walking towards the lakeside.
It was a man and a woman.
The strange thing was that they were not from the dark star civilization, but humans.
The old man was about eighty years old, and his cultivation was shockingly at the level of a single-crowned emperor. The young girl beside him was only twenty years old, and only had the cultivation of a peak overlord.
At this moment, the young girl was holding a black crossbow in her hand.
She was the one who had shot the arrow just now.
“Grandfather, the Outsiders these days are really bold. They dare to cultivate by the lakeside without understanding the Toad Lake. They really don’t know how they died.”The young girl tilted her head and looked at Su Yu, shaking her head.
Su Yu looked at the two of them in surprise.
As the Holy Land of the dark star civilization, they actually allowed humans to walk freely?
The old man said, “Die'er, deal with the toad. Don’t let its soul escape.”
The young girl nodded and rushed over. A small fireball burned the toad’s body and soul on the spot.
Su Yu saw with his own eyes that the Toad’s soul tried to escape the moment it was burned.
Moreover, the soul actually changed when it left the body. It became unusually evil and ferocious, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, filled with resentment.
Clapping her hands, the young girl looked at Su Yu and said, “Why are you still standing at the lakeside foolishly? Do you want to feed the toad?”
Su Yu paused and left the lakeside with his hands behind his back. He cupped his fists at the old man and said, “Thank you for saving me.”
“Hey!”The young girl put her hands on her hips and stared at Su Yu unruly. “Don’t you have good eyes? I’m the one who saved you, I’m the One!”
Su Yu smiled.
The person who shot the arrow was indeed her, but the one who frightened the many toads who were about to jump onto the lake was this old man.
She couldn’t save anyone with just one arrow.
Even though Su Yu didn’t need their help at all.
“No worries, it’s nothing.”The old man nodded lightly and called out to the young girl, “Let’s go back to the tribe.”
Su Yu thought for a moment and said, “Please Wait.”
The old man turned around and looked at him. There was a faint trace of repulsion in his eyes.
Su Yu understood and took off the hat on his head, revealing the face of a human.
The old man was surprised and his gaze became much gentler.
The young girl at the side covered her mouth and looked at Su Yu in surprise. “Wow, you are an unbelievably handsome human! HMM, sister, I didn’t waste that arrow.”
“So you are a human.”The old man smiled. “May I know why you called us here?”
Su Yu cupped his fists and said, “I am from the territory of the Moon worship sect. I want to pay my respects to the sacred mountain, but I don’t know anything about the rules of the sacred mountain. May I know some relevant information?”
The number of living beings that came to the sacred mountain to pay their respects every year was unknown. The grandfather and grandson duo were not surprised at all.
“I see. If you do not mind, you can come to my tribe as a guest. That is also the path that you must pass on your way to the Sacred Mountain,”the old man said.
Su Yu cupped her fists and bowed. “Thank you, senior.”
The young girl tilted her neck and transmitted her voice, “Grandfather, why did you bring him back to the tribe? You are not a good person.”
The old man blew his beard, he glared at her. “Who would say that about Grandpa?”? “I am indeed not a good person, but this fellow is quite talented. He is a half-step emperor at such a young age, and his divine power is quite strong. The possibility of becoming an emperor is very high. Bringing him back to befriend him won’t be a bad thing.”
“Won’t that be a bad thing? Our leader is still waiting for us to bring back the goods we bought from the Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce. Wouldn’t it be risky to bring a stranger back rashly?”
The old man shook his head slightly. “Don’t worry. Anyone who dares to stay at the Toad Lake must be completely unfamiliar with the sacred mountain. They shouldn’t be from the wolf smoke tribe.”
Su Yu’s ears twitched slightly. He was constantly listening to what they were thinking.
Goods? Was it something very important?
Rumble --
Suddenly, the earth trembled slightly.
Su Yu turned his head to look at the Toad Lake behind him. Those toads had already dived down for some unknown reason. The entire surface of the lake rippled.
