Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

The Power of Five Elements

The entire group stood on the vast, verdant plains. Above the willow trees were lazing white clouds. Tian Ran, the one Mu Yu wanted to protect most, dragged his feelings to the surface with her question.

“I won’t allow Tian Ran to suffer any arm,” Mu Yu uttered.

“You call this a dream. You think your so-called reality is flawless? An illusionist can’t create a flawless dream. What about your childhood? Your luck? You get whatever you want. You’re the main protagonist in your reality. You won’t die. You wouldn’t be in so much danger. Everything you do becomes the centre of attention. Illusionists can change the way you view the world, but he can’t make it perfect. You will identify the fallacies soon,” bellowed Qiao Xue, shedding tears.

Mu Yu smiled. He agreed his reality was complete and was void of anything amiss. He was sometimes lucky, but life wasn’t always smooth sailing. He didn’t believe all of his experiences and journeys thus far were hallucinations.

“He can’t return. He’s forgotten who he is and sided with Feng Haochen, our enemy,” Lie Shang stated, flames enveloping him.

Cheng Yan and Xiang Nan both confronted Mu Yu, as well. The baffling part was what their qualm was. Any single one of them could make short work of Mu Yu.

“We never had a chance of winning. Without Mu Yu, we can’t defeat the illusionist. What’s the plan?” Xiang Nan anxiously inquired.

“Mu Yu’s vitality strong vitality makes him the worst opponent for us. I never expected to have a traitor amongst us. If we can’t bring Mu Yu to his senses, there’s no chance of defeating the illusionist,” answered Cheng Yan.

“First Brother, Xiang Nan, you two find an opening to finish Feng Haochen. Qiao Xue, you and I will stop Mu Yu,” Lie Shang recommended in a muffled voice.

Mu Yu: Just what is going on? A dream should be based on my perception of the world, shouldn’t it? Everything is in reverse here. Contemplating this when I can’t comprehend a thing isn’t going to get me nowhere.

Standing in front of Feng Haochen, Mu Yu declared, “This may be my dream, but I still don’t want to see anyone harming Shifu.”

I won’t let Tian Ran’s tragic fate be repeated.

Qiao Xue gently set Tian Ran down next to Shi Dengtian. She turned back to Mu Yu. Her tears turned to ice picks. Her water spirit floated around her, reducing the temperature in the area. Lie Shang readied his fire. Ironically, ice and fire didn’t mix, while wood mixed with both, yet they were on opposing sides.

Cheng Yan slipped on solid iron armour. Xiang Nan howled, transforming his body into diamond and enlarging his fists.

Mu Yu summoned Shadow Splitter, all nine swords around him. He never intended to summon nine nor was he capable of summoning an extra four as far as he could remember. His spiritual energy levels were depleted if he tried to summon a sixth. Thrilled, he was burning to try wielding all nine at once.

Fire and ice closed in on Mu Yu’s right and left. Anti-Erosion Sword cut straight down Mu Yu’s centreline. Xiang Nan stomped the ground, summoning earth spikes where Mu Yu stood, catching all of the plants to hinder Mu Yu’s wood control ability.

Mu Yu’s wood control ability came from the flying swords once he jumped up. The wood spirit and Shadow Splitter had completely fused, granting them tremendous vitality. He willed one sword into a towering tree. Its vitality erected a big green barrier that stopped the ice and fire combo. Every time Lie Shang damaged it, it’d repair itself. Not even Mu Yu knew he had that ability.

Given Mu Yu had his hands full, Cheng Yan and Xiang Nan turned their attention to Feng Haochen. Flying swords and rock picks were swiped away with a simple white slash.

“Come at me!” blustered Mu Yu.

Mu Yu transformed one of his swords into a starry dragon vine. The dragon vine pulverised Stargazer and the stone spikes to reach Xiang Nan. Xiang Nan conjured layers of walls in front of him. The dragon vine produced thousands of hands as soon as it smashed into one wall and began tearing them down from within. Xiang Nan concentrated qi to his hand and backhanded the dragon vine away. Alas, bits of green light invaded his arm. Sprouts forced their way through his skin.

“First Brother!” Xiang Nan cried.

Cheng Yan decisively swung down, ridding all of the green sprouts and closed the splits in Xiang Nan’s arm prior to exiting Mu Yu’s attack range.

Lie Shang sizzled a hole in Mu Yu’s barrier using Sky Scorcher Sword. Qiao Xue leveraged the opening to send water droplets in to freeze the green points. Green buds still managed to sprout their way out of the ice, nevertheless. Each bud bloomed as an assortment of plants and trapped the ice outside.

The ability to utilise plants’ vitality was one Mu Yu had never touched on. He only learnt how to use the wood powers of the wood spirit thanks to the current events. He never sensed the same immense vitality prominent in the wood spirit before then. He felt empowered more than ever. The source of confidence was a feeling he could control all life. He could sense power that he could use to kill anyone if he willed it.

“Exterminate cultivators, and there won’t be any more unfairness in the world. Exterminate cultivators. They are the root of all evil. Exterminate cultivators, and the world shall be yours henceforward.”

Memories of cultivators imposing their unreasonable desires on ordinary folks flooded Mu Yu’s mind. All the unfairness and injustices enraged him. A sense of authority spurred his impulse to judge others as the blade of justice.

An astral fig tree materialised behind Mu Yu. His gaze turned cold. His lust for blood overwrote all other desires. His left eye turned white, right eye black.

“You’re all dead,” Mu Yu uttered, voice frosty.

Qiao Xue felt Mu Yu was colder than ever her ice. Mu Yu’s change changed even the weather. The death god’s sickle figuratively suffocated everyone present. Mu Yu had gone berserk!
