Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

Xiaoshuai’s Lightning Blast

Xiaoshuai spawned his blue sword again. The dragon vine entered Gentle Wind Interlinked Hearts Formation and executed the nine techniques of Celestial Swords Nine Catalysts from a Shadow Splitter Sword it manifested. The dragon vine devoured the sword, turning itself into a weapon.

“Hahaha, take this, Rodent!”

The dragon vine spat out a dragon blast that transformed into four swords. The four swords made short work of Xiaoshuai’s lightning sword, severing in five, thereby disabling it. As the lightning was on the cusp of disintegrating, Mu Yu caught the fragments in his black and white text, compressing the energy in his formation it until it was the size of a beam.

“Is it done? Give me one!” Xiaoshuai shouted.

“What for? You don’t mean to tell me you’re going to eat it,” commented the dragon vine.

“Goodness me, this is tough,” Mu Yu remarked. “Xiaoshuai, catch!”

Xiaoshuai dashed over to catch the lightning ball and then grinned. “Who said I’m eating it? I’m going to zap you with it!”

“Oi!”

The dragon vine sped off at maximum speed. Xiaoshuai energetically pursued the dragon vine, but the lightning burst before he could hurl it.

“You mother-“

Boom! The immediate surroundings were rearranged. A black Xiaoshuai flew into a fifty-metre deep hole the explosion created. Mu Yu was able to escape in time thanks to Heavenly Star Formation. Sadly for Xiaoshuai, he was too close. When Xiaoshuai climbed out of the hole, he was still seeing stars, yet he was cussing nonstop.

Apologetic, Mu Yu created a timber basin and filled it with water. He tossed Xiaoshuai in to wash off the black residue the little fellow was smothered in. “I overdid the compression. I thought that compressing it for longer would produce a bigger explosion.”

“Hahaha!” The dragon vine was rolling on the ground and relishing Xiaoshuai’s misery. “The lightning can tell who deserves to be blown to bits.”

Xiaoshuai shook off the water and leapt over to bite the dragon vine.

“Why are you biting me when Mu Yu was the one who blew you up?!”

“You’re right. Mu Yu!”

Xiaoshuai jumped at Mu Yu, biting his finger.

“I didn’t mean to! That hurts” Mu Yu had to throw Xiaoshuai off his finger because the latter’s teeth were extremely sharp. “Let’s try again. I promise I’ll do my best to not overkill, okay?”

“Now I’m hungry! I’m going to cook, instead. Big Earthworm, we’re out of bamboo shoots. Fetch me some fresh bamboo shoots! It’s only the topping, but it’ll make it taste ten times better.”

“Can’t you just ask Mu Yu to create some?”

“The vegetables he spawns don’t taste good. All I taste is death qi,” explained Xiaoshuai, activating a pill flame stone with his spiritual energy and creating a floating platform above the flame also using spiritual energy.

The dragon vine complained as it headed into the forest. Xiaoshuai sent the dragon vine as the latter was a plant and, therefore, could easily detect other plants.

Mu Yu analysed their attempt at the formation and surmised he had to improve his teamwork with Xiaoshuai. With his completion of Dustfallen Mental Cultivation, he could spawn nine swords. Thus, if he could combine it with Celestial Swords Nine Catalysts formation, he was sure he could give a Spirit Severing Realm Ninth Layer cultivator a run for their money.

Mu Yu fiddled with a piece of jade he located the Ku Mu inside Divine Soul Formation cast inside the jade piece. He could see Ku Mu’s soul inside whenever he sent his spiritual energy in, and he often visited Ku Mu.

Mu Yu wasn’t privy to the situation of the world beyond Moyun Mountains since he took his life of a recluse seriously, focusing solely on reviving Ku Mu.

“Why is Big Earthworm taking so long? I’ve been stirring for a while already. There’s a bamboo forest only a kilometre and a half away from here, damn it.”

Xiaoshuai sprinkled a lot of salt in; they procured the salt from short-horned riverhorses’ blood, which was located in salty wetlands, so there was plenty to go around.

“You’re right. It’s been an hour already… Don’t tell me it’s in trouble.”

“No way. It could even scare off fiend beasts with its lewd face; none of the fiend beasts in this forest should be able to harm it.” As Xiaoshuai fanned the steam from the crocodile lizard dish, he began digging in with his free hand.

“Wait here. I’ll go see where it is.”

Mu Yu connected with the trees in the forest to scout the forest. He didn’t see the dragon vine in the bamboo forest. Accordingly, he expanded his search radius to five kilometres.

“What’s that black qi…? All the plants are d-… Ghost qi!”

Mu Yu sent a rhizome underground to get closer. The ghost qi killed the rhizome he controlled, unfortunately. When all leads seemed lost, two of Ghost Gates’ members came into view.

“What did you call us here for?”

“We caught a dragon vine that has evolved into a dragon, but it wounded several of us. We need your help to restrain it,” explained a Body Severing Realm cultivator.

A female Spirit Severing Realm cultivator questioned, “An evolved dragon vine? Are you certain?”

“Gui Hongyu? What’s she doing here?” Mu Yu opened his eyes and said, “Xiaoshuai, put your food down. Ghost Gate has captured Dragon Vine.”

“Pfft!” Out came a piece of meat. Xiaoshuai exclaimed, “Ghost Gate caught Big Earthworm? I hate those buggers more than anything. Let’s go smash ‘em!”

Xiaoshuai hopped onto Mu Yu’s shoulder to sally forth!
