Chapter 2307 - Worthless
Chapter 2307 – Worthless
“Losing isn’t the end of the world, but your spinelessness is disgraceful!” Master God Yun He said icily, “When you return to the sect, enter house arrest in the Demon Suppression Cave. You’re to face the wall and reflect for eight thousand years!”
“As you say, Ancestor!” The silver-robed man shuddered from head to toe and nodded his assent.
“Don’t be angry, Daoist Brother Yun He,” said Liuxiang Hen. “The struggle has only just begun. Su Yi is just a Mid-Rank God. How could he possibly be a match for all those Master Gods?”
Master God Yun He’s eyes flashed, but in the end, he said nothing.
It was just as Liuxiang Hen said. There were still Master Gods lying in wait on Blue Sky Divine Mountain!
Meanwhile, halfway up the mountain, when Su Yi finished cleaning up his enemies, he continued up the slopes without delay.
It was only after he’d faded into the distance that the experts remaining at the halfway point dared to continue their ascent.
Beyond the halfway point, challengers were obviously far fewer.
After all, not just anybody could withstand the suppression of Blue Sky Divine Mountain’s source power long enough to reach the peak.
Soon, Su Yi saw Qi Wei in the distance.
From behind, she cut an extraordinary, slender figure. She wore an unembellished dress as black as ink, but it did little to hide her curves.
Her hair was casually tied up, revealing her long, snowy neck. The contrast of her dark clothing and fair skin was extraordinarily eye-catching.
The daughter of the leader of the Qilin Race always wore a veil, but it was that very veil that lent her her distinctive and mysterious charm.
Thinking back on it, Su Yi realized that he hadn’t met with Qi Wei since they’d parted ways at Skybright Mountain.
They’d only conversed through messages.
Now that they’d been reunited, Su Yi’s mood inexplicably improved.
Qi Wei and the Qilin Race had done a lot for him of late.
“Brother Su, how about you come with me when we leave the Celestial Capital?” Qi Wei’s gentle, clear voice suddenly echoed through Su Yi’s ears.
“Why?” Su Yi was stunned.
“You obviously know the answer already, so why ask?” said Qi Wei. “It’s far more dangerous outside the Celestial Capital than inside. Your enemies know you’re here. How could they let you leave so easily?”
Su Yi laughed. “No need for that. They can’t touch me here in the Ruins of Supreme Emergence.”
Here, he paused to warn her. “You’re the one who’d best be careful. Whatever you do, don’t get involved.”
“But…” Qi Wei was just about to say something when Su Yi shook his head.
“It’s settled.”
Qi Wei furrowed her brow. Her deep blue eyes glared hatefully at Su Yi’s back. He’s just too tyrannical!
In the end, she just pursed her lips and disregarded him.
Still, she couldn’t help but be curious. These are the Ruins of Supreme Emergence. Where does Su Yi get the confidence to insist that no one can touch him here?
……
Moments later, Su Yi suddenly stopped in place.
Five figures were blocking the road ahead, two One-Tribulation Master Gods, two Two-Tribulation Master Gods, and one Three-Tribulation Master God. All hailed from different factions.
The leader of the group was the Three-Tribulation Master God, a man leaning against a boulder with his legs crossed. He looked as leisurely as could be. He was dressed in gray, his long hair hung loose, and he had a grin on his face.
His name was Zhao Heng, and he was from Eight Views Grotto.
Everyone watching from the foot of the mountain looked over and watched with bated breath.
Thus far, Su Yi had climbed the mountain with casual ease, as if he were out for a stroll. He’d risen rapidly, cleaving through everything in his path.
But now, five Master Gods had joined forces to intercept him. Who could fail to realize that Su Yi had really run into a crisis this time?
Master God Yun He said coldly, “Without relying on external power, the Limit-Realm Su Yi couldn’t possibly be a match for those Master Gods!”
“On Blue Sky Divine Mountain, there’s no way he can rely on external power!” Liuxiang Hen chimed in.
Yue Youyuan said gravely, “Didn’t he use external power earlier to stave off divine punishment?”
Master God Yun He and Liuxiang Hen frowned. It was true! If Su Yi could somehow use external power here, those Master Gods would have no hope of victory even if they fought together!
Off in the distance, the Mountain Guardian sighed. “Why are you so small-minded? In a clash of the Grand Dao, the brave naturally triumph!”
Master God Yun He and the others were furious. They were just about to say anything when the Mountain Guardian said with righteousness, “Rest assured! So long as I’m here, I guarantee that he won’t be able to use any sort of taboo treasure, nor will he be able to borrow any kind of external power!
“This is Blue Sky Divine Mountain! A manifestation of Supreme Emergence Origin Power! No one can break the rules here!”
The Mountain Guardian pursed his lips. “There’s no way someone could break the rules even if they wanted to. You’re completely paranoid!”
The first half of his speech raised the Master Gods’ spirits. They thought that he was promising to make sure Su Yi didn’t use any sort of external power.
But the second half wiped the smiles right off their faces.
Meanwhile, on Blue Sky Divine Mountain.
Zhao Heng gazed downhill at Su Yi and chuckled, “It’s less than eight thousand feet to the peak, but we old-timers can advance no further, so we decided to wait here for you.”
The other four Master Gods gazed coldly at Su Yi.
Su Yi shook his head slightly. “What a worthless bunch. Not one of you managed to reach the peak. It’s truly disappointing.”
“What did you just say!?” Zhao Heng’s smile froze in place.
Su Yi glanced at him. “I said you’re worthless.”
“You…” Zhao Heng was furious, but a moment later, he laughed again. “I see. You want to provoke us and make us attack you first. Then, we’ll be subject to divine punishment. Am I right?”
Su Yi was stunned. Is that how you’re going to explain it?
Before he could respond, Zhao Heng said slowly and clearly, “You’d best give up. There’s no way we’ll give you that kind of opportunity!”
Another man laughed coldly, “Su Yi, if you aren’t afraid of divine punishment, why not attack us? Don’t tell me that you’re helpless without external power to rely on?”
His voice was full of dense mockery.
Just like Master God Yun He, they didn’t believe for a second that the Limit Realm Su Yi was a real threat on his own.
Here on Blue Sky Divine Mountain, everyone had to rely on their own strength, and they were Master Gods. They were certain that they could take Su Yi down with ease!
The only thing they were cautious of was divine punishment. That was the only reason they hadn’t attacked yet.
Su Yi just smiled in response and took a step forward.
Zhao Heng and the other five Master Gods’ eyes flashed with cold light, and their vital energy rumbled and boomed.
Arguing and insults were lesser Daos.
All of their jeers and insults were no more than an attempt to provoke Su Yi into attacking first.
And Su Yi had obviously taken the bait!
The crowd fell deathly silent. Everyone watched with rapt attention, not daring to even blink for fear of missing even the slightest detail.
It was then that the Mountain Guardian took action. He raised a plump, meaty hand and tapped the air.
Weng!
Countless inscrutable, mysterious, golden glyphs appeared, interweaving to outline a mysterious golden diagram.
“This is a Supreme Emergence Totem, a manifestation of Supreme Emergence Source Laws. It will record whatever happens next. Anyone who uses external power, no matter who they are, will be discovered immediately,” said the Mountain Guardian. “Are you happy now, you paranoid, small-minded weirdoes?”
The crowd stirred; they suddenly realized that the Mountain Guardian was displeased with Master God Yun He and the others. Every time he opened his mouth, he had to throw in a few insults.
“I hope that’s true.” Master God Yun He snorted coldly.
He’d only just said this when a battle erupted on the mountain.
Su Yi took a step forward and leisurely appeared before the nearest enemy, a One-Tribulation Master God.
The Master God’s pupils constricted, and he readied himself for a battle, like a strung arrow.
Su Yi disregarded this and attacked directly, using his hand like a sword to slash the air in front of him.
It was a light, airy strike, yet it produced a deafening sword hum that resounded throughout heaven and earth.
The One-Tribulation Master God had long since readied himself for battle. He attacked without hesitation, unleashing the strongest ability at his disposal. It was as if he’d lifted a divine mountain into the air and hurled it.
Boom!
The divine mountain shattered.
The Master God’s arms broke. Tyrannical sword qi slammed into him moments later.
The One-Tribulation Master God panicked. All he could think was——Is this how I die?
That’s right. He instinctively sensed his impending death. He knew there was no way he could dodge or fight back!
Bang——!
A massive impact rang out. At a critical juncture, the origin power of Blue Sky Divine Mountain surged forth and neutralized what would have been a lethal strike.
Even so, the One-Tribulation Master God was sent flying, his chest torn open and gushing a waterfall of blood!
Deathly silence fell. Everyone was astonished. He sent a One-Tribulation Master God flying in a single palm strike!?
Before the crowd could shake off its astonishment, Su Yi turned his attention toward the other four Master Gods.
He waved his sleeve, and sword qi exploded into being, going off like a thunderclap. The other One-Tribulation Master God was instantly disqualified.
Su Yi’s momentum didn’t stop there. He punched twice in rapid succession, each blow unstoppably heavy.
The two Two-Tribulation Master Gods’ defenses split, and soon, both had deep, fist-shaped indents in their chest.
Su Yi had almost punched right through their ribcages!
Two desperate shouts rang out, and both Master Gods were eliminated.
Zhao Heng’s expression shifted dramatically. His whole face filled with horror.
It had all happened too quickly. When he saw that Su Yi was headed his way, he instinctively retreated and tried to create distance between them.
But he was one step too late.
Su Yi attacked out of nowhere, reaching for him from afar.
Boom!
The power of the Laws defending Zhao Heng exploded, offering no more resistance than paper window paneling.
Zhao Heng was then dragged unceremoniously up to Su Yi.
It was then that streaks of the power of divine punishment started ruthlessly lashing Su Yi.
However, they couldn’t damage him in the slightest. They just scattered a resplendent rain of light, illuminating the gobsmacked expression on Zhao Heng’s face.
In his eyes, Su Yi was like an unparalleled god of slaughter!
“Was I wrong… to call you worthless?” Su Yi laughed dryly, then tossed Zhao Heng away.
Bang!
He landed in the dirt at the foot of the mountain, head-first, his legs sticking out of the ground like green onions. Su Yi even aimed it so that he was right in front of Yue Youyuan, the third-generation patriarch of Eight Views Grotto.
Zhao Heng convulsed for a moment before his eyes rolled back in his head and he sank into unconsciousness.
Su Yi hadn’t killed him, but he’d left his physical body and soul badly damaged!
Silence descended over the crowd. Even the birds ceased their song.
Everyone’s mind went blank. He seriously swept through five Master Gods just like that!?
