Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

Chapter 613

Respect

The explosion left a black scar on the island.

“Ghost Qi! I knew they had made it onto the island! Let’s move.”

Mu Yu climbed into Wood Spirit to his advance toward the island as the red sweeping lights left no blind spots. Though Wood Spirit was sturdy enough to tank the red light, the impact still pushed Wood Spirit back despite Mu Yu charging in at maximum velocity.

“Charging through barriers won’t work. Xiaoshuai, any recommendations?”

Still pouting, Xiaoshuai answered, “How should I know? I’m not friends with those fiends.”

“Can we go in underwater?” suggested the dragon vine.

“No, the island is floating, and the light beams are sweeping radially from it.”

“How did Ghost Gate’s group trespass, then?” asked the dragon vine.

“I’d also like to know. I bet their first group died because they failed to get past. Gui Yeming probably used his cultivation to get his group through.”

Boom! Ghost qi swirled into the sky above the island.

“If only Qiao Xue was here. Have you noticed that the water ceases moving when the barrier activates? She likely could merge us with the water to get through,” lamented Xiaoshuai.

Even when Mu Yu extended Wood Spirit an inch, the barrier would just blow it back.

Xiaoshuai smacked his thigh. “I remember now! I know how to get though now!”

“Yeah?” asked Mu Yu.

Xiaoshuai cleared his throat and began singing, “Ah, alul-”

“What are you imitating the mermaids for?”

“If you paid attention to their singing, you would’ve noticed they used their song to tell us how to enter. Listen…”

“Ah, beautiful Xiaoshuai, you are my king’s paradise. Only those who show respect will be granted an audience with my king.”

“Only those how show respect?”

“It’s impossible for me to harbour any respect for them,” proudly declared the dragon vine.

“That reminds me of the blue screen at Second Heaven. Xiaoshuai, you try first.”

Xiaoshuai spread his limbs and sun as he flew toward the barrier. “Noble Xiaoshuai, you are my pride…” Like that, Xiaoshuai flew through without any issue.

“Xiaoshuai, what are you thinking about right now?” Mu Yu shouted, willing to bet his life Xiaoshuai was thinking about anything but respecting the fiend king.

“Just don’t think about your purpose in coming here, what you want to steal from the island or harbour hostility toward fiends. The best way to empty one’s mind is to sing. Therefore, sing, young ones.”

“Fiends and their bloody gimmicks,” Mu Yu cursed, pulling the dragon vine into wood spirit.

The more Mu Yu tried to fight the urge to think, the more thinking he did, resulting in the barrier knocking him back several times. The dragon vine opted to sleep, consequently clearing its mind. After several rounds of performing Dustfallen Mental Cultivation, Mu Yu decided to focus solely on Xiaoshuai’s horrid, yet catchy, “Xiao, Xiaoshuai” song and that became his ticket through the barrier.

Mu Yu squeezed Xiaoshuai’s tail and muted the latter with a drumstick. All around them were damaged human and fiend bones for a floor. It was decidedly a former warzone.

“Mu Yu, lets collect some of the swords stuck in eye sockets and other stuff lying around. I could supply myself with months of drumsticks from them.”

Xiaoshuai excitedly wiggled an orange axe they predicted was a magical weapon Body Synthesis Real cultivator upgraded with his spiritual energy out of a skull.

The skeletons that shattered under Xiaoshuai’s weight belonged to relatively weak cultivators, while those that held up belonged to Spirit Severing Realm individuals. Xiaoshuai stepped onto a black one, provoking white souls to emerge!
