Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

Regenesis

Feng Haochen steadied himself and shifted his centre of mass to take Gui Xuanyue’s stab on his shoulder instead of his vital. His blood stained his robe, but he focused himself and yanked the sword out of his shoulder. “You yourself said there’s practically nobody who can kill me. What makes you think you can?”

Feng Haochen’s blood dissolved the yin qi on Gui Xuanyue’s sword. The blade crackled as if it was screaming in pain. Within seconds, it went up in smoke and snapped in two.

Adding an angry undertone, Feng Haochen suggested, “You must’ve taken many spirit souls. I’d say you’ve killed no less than a thousand people.”

Gui Xuanyue’s feathers were rustled when he lost control of his sword; however, he was able to recompose himself swiftly. “That’s because you have the formation babying you. In my Vacant Spirit Ghost Domain, you’re an ordinary Golden Core Realm cultivator. What can you do about me?”

Gui Xuanyue stepped into his Vacant Spirit Ghost Domain, amplifying the dark and cold qi around him. He manifested a horde of ghosts and sent them at Feng Haochen. Feng Haochen, panting slightly, threw away the black sword and told Mu Yu, “Mu Yu, remember not to enter that bloodthirsty mode no matter what.”

Feng Haochen summoned a lightweight flying sword called Light String. Though the white sword looked lightweight, there was no question it was lethally sharp. It was the same sword Feng Haochen used to show Mu Yu the latter’s aptitude was purple.

“Shifu,” mumbled Mu Yu.

Gui Xuanyue condescendingly said, “It is said that Celestial Swords Nine Catalysts is unparalleled and was what you defeated he five spirit lords with. Let’s see just what it’s made of.”

Gui Xuanyue summoned a soul collection banner to his hand. Ghost qi raced toward the banner. He flicked them off the banner as ghosts. The ghosts were cultivators Gui Xuanyue assassinated and collected, hence their resentment that drained life out of trees they went past.

Feng Haochen split Light String in nine and launched them high. He executed nine different sword techniques simultaneously, one technique per sword. Adding Dustfallen Mental Cultivation to the mix, he unleashed waves of sword qi, creating a scene of air manipulation. The technique was Dustfallen Swordplay’s ninth technique – Regenesis.

Thunder boomed. Lightning flashed. Nine silver dragons danced in the clouds, their energy compelling fiend beasts within fifty square kilometres to prostrate. The tsunami of energy vanquished the vengeful spirits and fused into a single, solid celestial sword three hundred and thirty-three metres long. Feng Haochen brought it down toward Gui Xuanyue without any flowery techniques.

Gui Xuanyue’s legs wouldn’t move; not even his fingers would respond to his commands. He watched on with his eyes wide. From his perspective, there was no avoiding the strike.

“Aaaarrgh, ugh!” Gui Xuanyue’s energy burst along with his body, yet not a drop of blood was anywhere in site. His ghost mist scattered as the sword impaled him.

Mu Yu was still limited to five swords because he couldn’t decipher the profound concepts of the swordplay in their entirety.

Celestial Sword reverted back to Light String and returned to Feng Haochen’s hand. Feng Haochen landed next to Mu Yu, but he looked drained.

“Shifu, are you all right?”

Mu Yu immediately supported Feng Haochen on the latter’s feet once he regained the ability to move. Although the technique was overwhelmingly lethal, it was also taxing on its wielders; Feng Haochen’s current cultivation compounded the fatigue.

“My body isn’t used to it after laying it off for so long. Vacant Spirit Ghost Domain also restricts his abilities, so it was impossible for him to block the attack. He’s not just going to roll over and die with that, though.”

Mu Yu wiped the blood that ran down the side of Feng Haochen’s mouth. More important than Gui Xuanyue’s status quo was ensuring his shifu was alive. Whilst transferring his spiritual energy to Feng Haochen, Mu Yu expressed, “Shifu, I will help treat your wounds.”

“Don’t worry about me. That black sword was covered in death qi and could pierce any human spirit soul. I have to use my blood to convert his sinsiter qi if I am to destroy it; however, I almost collapsed under the pressure of the death qi that entered my body. I can’t use Celestial Sword Regenesis, so I can’t suppress the death qi in me. I guess I can finally escape this torment.”

“No, Shifu, I won’t let you die.”

Mu Yu’s heightened senses of life force screamed at him Feng Haochen was dying. Mu Yu’s mind was in tatters, but he knew he wasn’t going to just watch.

“Haha, Celestial Sword Regenesis lives up to its name. I’m impressed you destroyed my physical body.” Gui Xuanyue emerged from his ghost mist again, albeit in a corporeal form.

Feng Haochen knew he inflicted more damage than Gui Xuanyue let on; he knew he dealt damage to Gui Xuanyue’s foundations. Feng Haochen forced a confident expression. “I vaporised your physical body and spirit soul. Is your spirit soul energy enough to command your twin?”

While Vacant Spirit Ghost Domain was erased, the ghost general still existed thanks to Gui Xuanyue’s twin. His twin shifted its gaze from Dustfallen Sect’s duo to Gui Xuanyue. Gui Xuanyue’s twin regained his human emotions – evident from the vengeful tone when he mocked, “Gui Xuanyue, you beat me back then, but you don’t appear to be in good shape.”

“Gui Yin, you now have a ghost general’s body, so get off my case. Do you want to ruin Shizun’s plan?”

“Remind me again what his plan has to do with me?”

“You can’t escape my grasp unless you have enough spirit soul energy. Help me kill th-”

Gui Yin closed in on Gui Xuanyue.

“You wouldn’t d-”

Gui Yin caught Gui Xuanyue’s spirit soul before the latter could flee and devoured his old friend. “I just dared to.”

Gui Yin’s cultivation transcended Gui Xuanyue’s cultivation level.

Boom! Lightning bolts behind the clouds flashed. Celestial Prison’s restrictions prepared to attack Gui Yin for exceeding its limits. Gui Xuanyue screamed from inside Gui Yin, “Gui Yin, we’ll both die if you fuse us!”

“This ghost general is just a counterfeit. I need to swap bodies.” Gui Yin looked back at Mu Yu and declared, “I’ll help you take care of your body. Your spirit soul is mine!”

Gui Yin advanced toward Mu Yu at high velocity. He manifested a yin qi spear to his hand and attempted to impale Mu Yu. His Primordial Infant Realm energy rendered Mu Yu stuck in the ground. Feng Haochen was out of energy to subdue Gui Yin.
