Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 374: I'm home

Shang Shan, Xu Song, and other experts from the Overseas Heavenly Tower rushed to the rescue, but it was too late.

Cang Jiu Hua shattered on the spot, while the other two experts who entered Su Yun's Dao Field were shocked. Without hesitation, they activated their divine abilities. One of them was proficient in astronomy, and constellations appeared around him, with nebulae forming a disc. He was like a sun forming in the disc, continuously absorbing energy from the nebulae!

His divine abilities and techniques were derived from observing astronomy and incorporating it into his cultivation. If other people's divine abilities attacked his true essence transformed into nebulae, they would be absorbed and their power would weaken, while his divine abilities would become more powerful!

Although the experts from the Heavenly Tower were not known for their combat abilities, each of them had unique skills.

However, after they displayed their divine abilities, a sword light suddenly appeared before their eyes. In their vision, the sword light did not approach from a distance but receded into the distance.

"Uh-oh."

The expert from the Overseas Heavenly Tower was also extremely intelligent and realized that his divine abilities were useless in Su Yun's Dao Field.

"Poof!"

His entire body exploded from the inside out, and countless sword lights burst out from all directions within him!

Su Yun did not try to decipher his divine abilities using conventional methods. Instead, when he entered his Dao Field, the sword qi within the Dao Field erupted from his body, directly cutting him to pieces!

This was the terrifying aspect of the Dao Field.

Su Yun's Dao Field was only ten zhang in diameter, but within those ten zhang, his sword qi was almost everywhere, resembling the Dao!

The other expert from the Heavenly Tower was a presence at the Tian Xiang realm. At the same time, he activated his Tian Xiang spiritual consciousness and used it to display his divine abilities, which were incredibly powerful, like a ghost or god!

He knew very well that it was easy to enter Su Yun's Dao Field but difficult to leave. In order to preserve himself, he had to break open the Dao Field with his formidable cultivation. Therefore, he immediately used the strongest method of the Tian Xiang realm!

After a Tian Xiang expert died, their spiritual consciousness could transform into a ghost or god in the Tian Shi Yuan. For example, the ten zhang ghost or god that Su Yun encountered when he took refuge in the Wen Sheng Temple was a Tian Xiang expert in his previous life.

The greatest difference between a Tian Xiang expert and a Ling Shi expert was that their spiritual consciousness underwent a tremendous enhancement, their magical power became extremely powerful, and they broke through the shackles of the Ling Shi realm, reaching a whole new level!

The reason why the Tian Xiang realm had the word "Tian Xiang" was because the spiritual consciousness of the cultivators at this realm imitated the heavens and imitated the gods and demons, causing their spiritual consciousness to become immense and god-like!

Some people's spiritual consciousness could cultivate into a form with three heads and six arms, like an angry-eyed Vajra. Some people's spiritual consciousness could transform into the form of a dragon or phoenix, while others could step on a dragon and hold the stars.

However, when the Tian Xiang expert from the Overseas Heavenly Tower displayed his incredibly powerful divine abilities, he immediately felt as if he was hitting an impenetrable wall!

His divine abilities, his overwhelming power, were like a mud ox entering the sea, without causing the slightest ripple in Su Yun's Dao Field!

"His magical power is stronger than mine, and his spiritual consciousness is even stronger!"

He immediately realized this point and, like the others, turned into dust within Su Yun's Dao Field.

Su Yun was at the Deep Abyss realm, while he was at the Tian Xiang realm. He seemed to be one realm higher than Su Yun, but in reality, his realm was not higher than Su Yun's. In fact, it was slightly lower.

Although Su Yun had not cultivated to the Tian Xiang realm, he had cultivated his physical body to perfection, making up for the shortcomings of his physical body. He had also opened up the Guang Han realm and completed his cultivation.

He attempted to forcefully break Su Yun's Dao Field with his Tian Xiang realm, and the result was predictable!

The elders from the Overseas Heavenly Tower were unable to save them in time and saw Cang Jiu Hua and the two experts buried within Su Yun's Dao Field, causing their hearts to sink.

"The Heavenly Tower has never experienced such a thing since its establishment."

One elder whispered, "Fighting among ourselves, attacking the Tower Master, the Tower Master killing fellow members, and even the Tower Master changing three times in a day..."

Upon hearing this, the others also felt a sense of absurdity. The Heavenly Tower, whether in terms of inheritance or resources, was comparable to a powerful empire. With the presence of figures like the Seven Elders, the Heavenly Tower's strength could even rival that of a country!

The members of the Tower were all exceptional geniuses, each with their own unique talents in their respective fields!

But even such a powerful group of people had created chaos, making them feel that everything was absurd.

Within a day, the Tower Master changed from Su Yun to Luo Wanyi, and from Luo Wanyi to Cang Jiu Hua. Now, Cang Jiu Hua had died at Su Yun's hands, and they were certain that there would be another change in the Tower Master!

Su Yun was so outstanding, with such high comprehension ability and rapid progress in strength. He was undoubtedly the best candidate for the Tower Master. According to reason, they should not have any other thoughts, but Su Yun was not someone who could be easily manipulated.

Before Su Yun, there was already a Tower Master, who was also a youth from Yuan Shuo and died at the hands of the Divine Emperor. Moreover, this matter was not unrelated to several elders who had ulterior motives.

The elders with ulterior motives would never allow a person from Yuan Shuo to become the Tower Master!

They had no way out!

Although Su Yun was kind to others and gave them a way out, he did not want to investigate the death of the previous Tower Master. However, for those who had done evil, forgiveness was not redemption but rather made them more crazy and unrestrained!Just at this moment, the corpse of the Fire Virtue God Sovereign suddenly fell to the ground, and Dong Physician also fell down.

Shang Shan, Xu Song, and others breathed a sigh of relief. Dong Physician's strength was indeed unexpected, but compared to the God Emperor Yu Daoyuan, he was still far inferior.

Even though Yu Daoyuan was heavily injured by Yu Jin, his injuries were not something that Dong Physician could contend with. Dong Physician had already done an incredible job by persisting for so long with just a corpse.

Suddenly, rain fell from the sky, and the rainwater was blood-red.

.

When the God Emperor Yu Daoyuan landed, he had some additional wounds on his body. These wounds were left by Dong Physician using the spiritual power of the Fire Virtue God Sovereign's corpse to perform immortal techniques.

The God Emperor Yu Daoyuan's face darkened. He had encountered many setbacks along the way. First, he planned to capture Su Yun, but was played around by Su Yun and ended up exposing the fact that he only had his upper body left. Then, he intended to change the leader of the pavilion, but was defied by Luo Wanyi and had the Overseas Heavenly Pavilion split by her. Now, even Cang Jiuhua had been killed by Su Yun!

And now, he encountered the freak Dong Physician, who had inflicted even more injuries on him!

"When the God Emperor is angry, blood will flow like a river."

Yu Daoyuan took a deep breath and shifted his gaze from Dong Physician to Luo Wanyi, then moved his eyes to the experts of the Overseas Heavenly Pavilion who had joined Luo Wanyi. His gaze swept across their faces one by one.

No one dared to meet his gaze and quickly averted their eyes.

"Now..."

The God Emperor laughed in anger. Suddenly, a series of thunderbolts struck fiercely on his forehead, causing him to become furious. He looked towards Hua Hu and Master Lingyue.

Hua Hu trembled and hid behind Master Lingyue, who was trembling as well.

The God Emperor gritted his teeth and glared fiercely at the two of them before finally fixing his gaze on Su Yun. Su Yun smiled and praised, "Great Qin's Imperial Tutor, you are truly extraordinary. After Yu Jin's death, the gods have hidden themselves, and you are now the number one in the world!"

Upon hearing his voice, the God Emperor Yu Daoyuan couldn't help but feel angry. However, after he finished speaking, Yu Daoyuan burst into laughter.

"Su Pavilion Master, isn't it a bit late for you to flatter me now?" Yu Daoyuan laughed and calmed down his anger, feeling a sense of strategizing.

Su Yun shook his head and said, "This is not flattery, but stating the facts. I was born in Tian Shi Yuan and I am a straightforward person who never flatters others. In the current world, Winged Dragon, Hakutaku, and other gods and demons have been deprived of their divine imprints. They are just slightly stronger divine beasts and monsters. They are no longer immortal gods, so they fear you and dare not lay a hand on you."

He continued solemnly, "Although the likes of the ugly Kylin and other gods and demons still retain their divine positions, they are scattered all over the world, calming the impact caused by the outer world, suppressing magnetic storms, extinguishing volcanoes, stopping earthquakes, preventing tsunamis, dispersing storms, and saving people from water and fire. They are unable to deal with you due to their limited abilities."

The God Emperor Yu Daoyuan said, "Even if they have the time to deal with me, I am not afraid at all."

Su Yun nodded and said seriously, "Indeed, the God Emperor has this capability. After Yu Jin's death, you became the ruler of the Western Region. Your temples are spread throughout the Western lands, even in villages. Countless people worship and believe in you. Although you are useless in times of great calamity, they still regard you as their reliance. As a result, the entire Western Region is equivalent to your source of vitality. The people's faith is continuous, and your vitality is endless. You have become another form of deity!"

The God Emperor Yu Daoyuan was very pleased and said with a smile, "There are very few people who can see things so clearly, but Su Pavilion Master is one of them. Since you can see it so clearly, I won't kill you. As long as you hand over the new realm you have opened up and kowtow to me three times a day, morning, noon, and night, I will let you continue to live freely."

Su Yun laughed heartily and said loudly, "God Emperor, you should know that I was born in Tian Shi Yuan and I am one of its people. The moment I stepped into Tian Shi Yuan, you could no longer kill me. Because..."

His words were filled with pride, "I have come home! No one dares to bully me in my own home!"

The God Emperor Yu Daoyuan, Shang Shan, Xu Song, and others immediately looked around. They saw that although Tian Shi Yuan was vast and endless, there was no sign of any human presence, only desolate graves!

Su Yun's words about coming home made everyone's hearts tremble.

"Could Su Pavilion Master's home be these desolate graves?" Xu Song laughed, but he felt a bit creepy inside.

"That's right. I used to live in one of these desolate graves."

Su Yun smiled and said, "There are pine and cypress trees near my home, and my neighbors are ghosts and demons. In ordinary days, I study with fox demons. In the ghost market, I set up stalls with them to exchange our treasures for the fulfillment of our wishes by those who come here for experience."

As his voice echoed, a faint vibration came from underground, as if there was a monster stretching its body beneath the ground.

"Chi—"

The ground cracked open, revealing deep cracks, and yin energy and yin wind rushed up from the cracks towards the sky!

The sky gradually darkened, and gloom enveloped Tian Shi Yuan.

Everyone felt a chill and looked around. The gloom was extremely eerie, and even with their astonishing vision, they couldn't see very far!

"My senior is Lou Ban, the Overseas Heavenly Pavilion's Pavilion Master, and most of my stall partners were Pavilion Masters and saints of various sects."Su Yun said, "I once paid a visit to the God of Literature, Wenchang Dijun, on a snowy night, and was invited to be a guest in Dongling. I rode dragons and roamed with the great emperor, patrolling the heavenly market."

Suddenly, the desolate graves disappeared, replaced by jade palaces and towers. Shadows of people were everywhere, with princes and nobles mingling with various ghosts and gods. The sounds of carriages and horses were loud, coming this way.

Su Yun's voice echoed back and forth, extremely shocking in this desolate wasteland: "Among them are ancient sages, whose writings and teachings have been passed down to later generations, and unknown ghosts and gods, whose achievements have long been forgotten by people.

"Some people have worked hard to open up wastelands and canals, benefiting future generations; some people have made contributions to the country but have been forgotten; some people have done earth-shattering deeds but are now unknown;

"Some people were once famous but are now unknown; some people sacrificed their lives for the country but have become nameless tombstones; some people defended the border but no one knows their achievements; some people wrote books to leave to the world but their teachings have been lost; some people, even hundreds of years after their death, because of an unfulfilled wish, are reluctant to leave."

Behind Su Yun, thousands of ghosts and gods stood silently, their numbers increasing. Among them were powerful saintly spirits such as the God of Literature, Wenchang Dijun, and those proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting!

In the world today, only Su Yun has such a strong appeal!

"Let's go!" God Emperor Yu Daoyuan turned around and said sternly.
