Transcending the Nine Heavens

1360 1360: Savior

Looking at the two approaching sword lights, the four Supreme Martial Artists revealed a delighted expression as though they were playing a game of cat and mouse: You have been desperately fleeing and will never imagine that just as you think you have the greatest chance of escape, it will actually be the place of your judgment, right?

The sword lights were getting increasingly closer.

The four Supreme Martial Artists were getting ready to make a move!

Once they made a move, it would be a thunderous strike!

In fact, Chu Yang and Ye Zui had already noticed the opposition’s presence. But at this moment, they didn’t have a choice.

As long as they entered the mountain and with the familiarity of this Pagoda Mountain, Ye Zui had 90% confidence in shaking off their pursuers! But the opposition had actually been waiting at the entrance of the mountain for them.

There was no way to enter!

Ye Zui didn’t know what place was the Pagoda Mountain. He only knew that this mountain contained countless great secrets and that his clan’s Elder Master would frequently come to the Pagoda Mountain for seclusion. The Elder Master might be back at the clan now but would frequently pay attention to the commotion at this place.

But the Elder Master had never spoken of what was inside this place.

Ye Zui had visited this Pagoda Mountain before. Furthermore, his most important item could be obtained on the fourth floor of this Pagoda Mountain.

Above the third floor was a myriad of mazes, while there were no clues as to what was above the fourth floor.

At that moment, Ye Zui had narrowly escaped with his life.

But Ye Zui believed that even if he perished that time, it was also worth it!

Because he had returned to the Pagoda Mountain for over ten times afterward and was never able to find that mystical place which he had found the previous time!

Ye Zui had buried this matter in his heart and it had become his greatest regret and also his greatest wish!

…

The first time Chu Yang laid eyes on the Pagoda Mountain, he had a wonderful expression.

He dared to bet with his entire wealth, he would even dare to bet with the Nine Tribulations Sword: When he arrived from the north, he absolutely didn’t discover this mountain!

He had arrived from the north.

But this mountain was in the north-east direction. There were less than a hundred miles in between.

This was a mysterious mountain that was surrounded by mist and was so tall that it was reaching through the clouds. How could he not notice it?

In fact, during the battle on the mountain with Wei Wuyan, he should be able to see it clearly. It should be very clear! Even looking afar from the north-west, one should be able to see it completely!

But Chu Yang didn’t discover it somehow.

Chu Yang remembered very clearly.

When he rushed over from the north-west, he had purposely taken a glance to the north-east and what he saw was a grassland.

But now that he traveled from the south to the north, he actually saw the world-renowned Pagoda Mountain!

What was going on?

…

With enemies obstructing at the front, Chu Yang and Ye Zui had no choice but to meet force with force.

If they broke through this blockade, it would be a way out. If they couldn’t break through… then they would probably have to do as Zhuge Hun said: Be a guest at the Zhuge Clan.

A few thousand feet behind them, Zhuge Hun was having a pleased smile.

“Ye Chenchen frequently secluded himself in the Pagoda Mountain. But right now, Ye Chenchen wasn’

t around.”

“Hence, no one believes I can set up an ambush here. But on the contrary, I have set up an ambush here!”

“Furthermore, Ye Zui didn’t disappoint me and took this path!”

“Let’s see where else can the two of you run!”

…

Currently, Ye Chenchen was naturally not on the Pagoda Mountain.

Furthermore, even if Ye Chenchen entered the Pagoda Mountain now, he would clearly state: There is no one in the Pagoda Mountain right now! Absolutely no human existence!

But in fact, on the sixth floor of the Pagoda Mountain, within the faintly discernible and concentrated clouds, a grey-clothed individual was standing in the wind.

The entire body of the grey-clothed individual seemed to be in harmony with the clouds. As the cool breeze blew across and as the clouds scattered and gathered back again, he was just like the wind and the clouds.

Right now, this person was frowning and looking at the sword lights that were rushing toward the foot of the mountain. His eyes seemed to traverse the distance as his eyes zoomed in on the two fleeing individuals.

He could see very clearly.

In fact, he didn’t even miss out on any injuries that were on the duo.

The grey-clothed man tilted his head and murmured something with suspicion, “This fellow… Why does he look so much like… Chu Yang?”

His eyes went blurry for a moment before he focused on Chu Yang and immediately laughed. “It is really that little bastard!”

He could clearly see Chu Yang’s body that was drenched in blood, but hidden underneath, his body, muscles and bones were all unscathed. Furthermore, he was gradually but steadily… recovering.

“This kid is disguising as a pig to devour a tiger! Apart from this move, doesn’t he know anything else…” The grey-clothed man seemed to be very unsatisfied with Chu Yang and was very opinionated.

At the sight of how pathetic this kid was, the grey-clothed man actually had a carefree and relaxed sensation. He couldn’t help but grin and laughed silently. “Kid, who asked you to be so naughty! You are receiving your retribution now, you deserve it! Haha…”

But subsequently, he frowned. “It seems like if this old one doesn’t make a move, this fellow will not be able to escape this misfortune… If this kid really died like this… it will not be good.”

His ash-colored brows shivered slightly before he finally made a decision.

“Forget it, forget it, consider it as I owe it to you…” The grey-clothed man let out a low sigh. “Otherwise, if the little grandaunt knew that I watched this fellow in a crisis and didn’t help, she would probably fire this old man…”

After sighing, his hands reached out from the sleeves and pressed down from a distance!

With an unwilling expression, “Actually I long to see this bastard being captured and forced to do hard labor every day… Sigh…”

He might be talking like this, but four abundant and unstoppable forces suddenly emerged from his hands before they were pressed down with lightning speed.

At this moment, the four Supreme Martial Artists were smiling and slowly raising their hands while holding their swords and sabers at the hilts.

All of their movements felt like it was nature itself. When the four of them raised their hands together, it gave off a copious feeling.

The presence from the four had abruptly risen to the peak!

A mountain-like pressure was surging out and thrown at the faces of Chu Yang and Ye Zui like a raging wave.

Chu Yang felt a suffocating sensation!

For a moment, both of them were gobsmacked.

Ye Zui cursed, “Damn, they had been showing their presence as low-level fifth-grade Supreme Martial Artists. It turns out that these bastards are all peak-level fifth-grade Supreme Martial Artists!”

Chu Yang’s heart had also suddenly sunk.

He had agreed to charge in this direction with Ye Zui because of Ye Zui’s confidence. Ye Zui was a fourth-grade Sword Supreme! If the opposition were just low-level fifth-grade Supreme Martial Artists, it was still possible to escape into the mountain if Ye Zui fought desperately.

What if Chu Yang was assisting from the side?

But now, the enemies were at the peak of fifth-grade Supreme!

The difference from the low-level to peak was almost the same as the difference between the fourth-grade Supreme to the fifth-grade Supreme!

How could this battle be fought?

Chu Yang cursed loudly in his heart, “Ye Zui, you scoundrel, you can be god damn muddle-headed all you want at some other moment. Why do you have to choose this moment to misjudge someone!?”

“What are we going to do now?”

“I have been defrauded badly by you…”

“Furthermore, we are flying into the hands of others voluntarily… Is there something even more pathetic than this?”

“Moreover, we have already been locked on by the opposition while we are sprinting at full speed. It is already too late to change direction!”

Chu Yang’s heart emerged with a heart that he couldn’t help but approve. “It is indeed the case! One doesn’t have to be afraid of a godlike enemy but should be afraid of a pig-like teammate!”

This time, he had been implicated by this dumb pig…

At the front, the four individuals had clenched the sword hilts and saber hilts at the same time. A grave presence with a murderous aura from a thousand-strong army had suddenly burst out. The man in the middle with the fluttering clothes smiled and said, “First Young Master Ye, excuse me!”

Ye Zui’s eyes couldn’t help but look fretful. He cursed out while speeding, “Excuse your goddamn head! A good dog doesn’t block the way! Die to one side!”

The four Supreme Martial Artists sneered. “Is First Young Master Ye giving us orders? Apologies, do you think you are qualified to issue orders to us now?”

Ye Zui yelled angrily, “Concentrate on one point and break through!”

Chu Yang might despise Ye Zui and be so furious that he wished to personally strangle Ye Zui to death, but he had to admit that this was the only and best solution!

Although, it might also be a solution to a certain death.

But it was still much better than all other solutions.

The duo’s sword points trembled at the same time. Immediately after, the Sword Supremacy’s presence burst out suddenly, exploding and rupturing!

The two sword lights converged and actually emitted a blazing white airflow that was similar to a sword intent. Subsequently, the duo flew from left and right with their sword at the front, while they rushed at the gap in between the four individuals!

The four Supreme Martial Artists let out a wave of candid laughter as they wanted to draw their weapons to welcome the fight!

But at this moment, the four individuals’ smiles had suddenly frozen!

Their long swords and curved sabers could only be drawn halfway out of the sheath and could no longer be pulled any further.

At this moment, the four of them felt a massive force that descended from the sky. It was like a portion of the clear sky had collapsed and pressed down on their shoulders.

Immediately after, the large force had immobilized their shoulder and their bodies weren’t in their control anymore!

They were completely stiff.

They could neither draw their weapons nor move nor even smile a bit!

They maintained their menacing presence and maintained elegant and calm combat stances of experts but were frozen in place!

Chu Yang and Ye Zui rushed forward with a spirit as though their lives depended on this and if they didn’t succeed, they would have died for a good cause!

The two of them were paying close attention to the enemies’ movements.

Ye Zui was thinking: As soon as they move, I will immediately pull this fellow beside me and make him fall forward. I will immediately turn back and run. I shall safeguard myself before anything else.

Chu Yang was thinking: As soon as they move, I will immediately kick Ye Zui’s butt. Since he still thinks that my leg is injured and not nimble… When he is flying forward, I can make use of the tiny gap of time to turn back and rush out of this siege. I will immediately escape faraway… In the future, I will never partner with a pig-like person just like him.
