The Legend of Futian - Chapter 88: The World

Ye Futian slowly walked out to the center of the square. Countless gazes fell upon him. The younger generation went without saying. Ye Futian had already proved how powerful he was. The older generation was also paying attention. The Qin Devil had returned to Donghai City as a disabled man. How talented could his disciple be?

Ye Futian put the guqin before him and sat down slowly. Clad in a white robe, he looked extremely handsome and regal.

Seeing him, Lin Xiyue gasped and was shocked. She had once thought that he was just an average musician who went to the Luo Palace to learn more about the world. Then, Ye Futian displayed his talent during the battle. Today, she heard that he had defeated Zhou Mu at Donghai Academy. Just how outstanding was this handsome boy?

Her father glanced at her. To be honest, he knew about Ye Futian defeating Zhou Mu but he didn't tell Lin Xiyue. This girl was interested in the boy but Ye Futian was the Qin Devil's disciple. He had conflicts with the Art Saint and the School of the Emperor Star. His future would have many obstacles. Plus, he already had a girlfriend—that one from the Nandou clan. He didn't want his daughter to get involved and have her heart broken.

Mu Hong studied Ye Futian but his eyes darkened.

Ye Futian looked up at the setting sun. There was a smile in his clear eyes. She said slowly, "This song was composed by myself. It is called 'Hero'." With that, he began playing. His fingers slid over the strings and a graceful melody came out.

"He did not challenge anyone. He's just playing music," someone said. The spectators were impressed. Today's motive was to see the accomplished students display their talents. They did not necessarily have to challenge others. For the Qin Devil's disciple, music playing was naturally a way to do that.

People quickly stopped mulling. The moment the music sounded, they fell into a pleasantly strange artistic conception.

At first, the melody was cheerful and fresh. As the music entered their ears, a picture appeared in the audiences' minds. They seemed to see a handsome youth earnestly bow to his teacher for the first time. The youth had extraordinary talent. He was well-liked by his teacher and was taught true skills, growing even more powerful.

The melody gradually became graceful and moving. It made one feel as if they were falling in love. They involuntarily entered this mindset. The student grew up, met a girl, and fell in love. His heartbeat seemed to be audible in the music.

The moving melody changed again. It became heavy and dark. The relationship was judged and opposed. A few big figures furrowed their brows. Was the meaning behind this song his own story or Hua Fengliu's?

The music changed again. The youth had matured and become successful but he still wanted to be with his loved one—even if everyone opposed it, even if it was beyond redemption.

The music intensified. The main character of the melody seemed to be fighting against fate. He faced everything alone but in the end, he failed. The music grew dreary like a hero past his prime.

Just as everyone thought the song was over, the dreary melody suddenly recovered its vitality. Rather than being spirited again, it was as calm as water like a change in mindset. Everyone could see that the main character had gone through many hardships and cultivated. But he still could not forget his home and lover. He decided to return and face the changes in the world. Even if he was defeated, he was still a hero.

The melody stopped. The music faded slowly. Everyone seemed to be unwilling to return to reality. The young people were especially affected by the attractive force of the music.

In the School of the Finance Star crowd, Tang Lan's eyes welled with tears. She gazed at Hua Fengliu, who was now disabled. There was a faint smile on his handsome face. His disciple was able to compose now and had performed his entire life.

Many big figures glanced at Ye Futian. They naturally understood the meaning behind the song. This was a composition for the Qin Devil. Ye Futian used his music to express his teacher's life. Though he didn't fight anyone, this melody was better than the Qin Devil in the past. No one dared to look down on him.

Mu Hong narrowed his eyes at Ye Futian. No wonder Hua Fengliu had begged him for this student. He was a second Hua Fengliu.

"Who did you play this for?" Luo Junlin, the crown prince, asked from the direction of the School of the Emperor Star.

"Your Highness, I played for my master." Ye Futian set his hands down and looked up at Luo Junlin.

"You have enough artistic conception but not enough élan. You did not reveal a true musical spell. Since you are such a good musician, why don't you perform something for me today as well?" Luo Junlin said.

Ye Futian gazed at the crown prince. Since he requested it, Ye Futian could not deny him. He nodded and said, "Okay. I am still unable to compose my own musical spell so I can only perform someone else's."

"Sure." Luo Junlin nodded.

Ye Futian lowered his head and began playing again. His fingers strummed and the instrument strings vibrated. A note broke through the air like powerful running thunder. "This piece is 'The World'."

As he spoke, the music notes danced. The audience instantly felt an extreme power. Many people's eyes flashed. Ye Futian truly was a prodigy. They instantly understood that this melody was created for the crown prince. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

A terrifying music storm gathered around Ye Futian. It was as powerful as crashing tidal waves. Now, different images flashed past the audience's mind as the music played. Signal smoke rose and the emperor rode onto the battlefield to conquer the lands. Some also saw the king ride a dragon and survey the world. Everyone he passed bowed down.

In this melody, the world was like a painting.

"Send some men up," Luo Junlin said indifferently.

Minister Hua glanced at the School of the Emperor Star headmaster and uttered a command. Several disciples then walked toward Ye Futian. However, their steps were very difficult. The music constantly entered their ears, making them scared to fight back.

Spiritual Qi gathered around them and they stepped forward. However, the music was still rising. It seemed to want to break through the clouds.

Now, Ye Futian was shrouded in a halo of light. He was like a young king. He represented the world.

Everyone saw a shocking image. There was a blurry figure up above. He had an emperor's long robe and a crown. He walked toward them, commanding the world, making them voluntarily want to bow down to him.

The weaker Emperor Star students going toward Ye Futian had prostrated themselves to the ground, not daring to raise their heads. They seemed to be revering Ye Futian. More and more people knelt down under the music's influence. As if controlled by the musical spell, they worshipped the emperor.

BOOM! A terrible sharpness flashed past the eyes of the big figures. They felt the youth's talent and shuddered. Something felt wrong.

This song was called 'The World'. It was performed for the crown prince but Ye Futian was the performer. At this moment, he had become the high and mighty emperor and Luo Junlin was before him, face to face. The elegance and grace of the white-clothed youth truly was like an emperor now. Did the musical spell give it to him or was he born with it?

Lin Xiyue gaped. The present Ye Futian was even more brilliant than that day at the Luo Palace. He was unmatchable. He could even be compared to someone like the crown prince, let alone Zhou Mu.

Mu Hong shuddered as well. Hua Fengliu had such a student and had once come to him but he rejected the man.

"Can't this guy keep a low profile?" Yi Xiang cursed. He didn't want Ye Futian to attend this event. Being too bright was not a good thing. Nowadays, Minister Hua and the crown prince were very close. He hoped Ye Futian would stay low and attend the Tingfeng Banquet with Minister Zuo.

"Some people are born like this," Hua Fengliu said calmly. Not many knew about Ye Futian's secret but he and Yu Sheng knew. The inheritor of Emperor Ye Qing was definitely not an average man. His aura would appear when playing music, which he probably didn't even know himself.

When Luo Junlin told Ye Futian to perform something, The World should be the most suitable piece. However, this piece caused Ye Futian to reveal his emperor-like aura. This was neither on purpose nor brought about by the musical spell. It was something he was born with.

Hua Fengliu could guess that Ye Futian had a shocking background.

At this moment, at the highest seat in the School of the Emperor Star, Luo Junlin slowly stood up. Then, to the surprise of all, he walked down toward the center of the square, toward Ye Futian.

People could feel those who were the same. Luo Junlin was destined to be king. Everyone in Nandou knew that he ruled over the world. He could feel something similar coming from Ye Futian. It was the aura of an emperor.

The music reached the climax. Then it descended and stopped. Luo Junlin also stopped before Ye Futian. Countless eyes were on them. Yi Xiang and Hua Fengliu were even a bit nervous as they watched. As the crown prince, Luo Junlin shouldn't kill Ye Futian just for a song. He had told the youth to play it, after all.

"Follow me. When I become king, you will be minister," Luo Junlin said, staring at Ye Futian.

With that, the world fell into silence.

When I become king, you will be minister!
The Legend of Futian

The Legend of Futian - Chapter 87: Called Out

The events at the School of the Emperor Star shocked all of Donghai Academy. There wasn't a single person who did not know about it.

Zhou Mu was defeated by Ye Futian in such a humiliating way. His defeat was an equivalent to a slap in the face for the Art Saint and became a taboo topic amongst the Art Saint's acquaintances. They were all extremely cautious of their words around him.

But now, this Mu Hong character dared to bring up the subject in front of all these people. It was obvious how the people of Donghai Academy felt about this. Especially when he said: 'Let's see if Brother Fengliu's disciple is a fraction as gifted as the Art Saint's disciple.' How was the Art Saint supposed to feel about this?

Many people were afraid to look at him. They were all afraid that they might catch the Art Saint's eyes.

"This idiot!" The officials of the Emperor Star school all glared at Mu Hong.

The officials of the School of the Flirting Star were also looking at him. This sucker's son and daughter had been beaten up by Ye Futian. Did he not know of this?

Mu Hong noticed all the attention he was getting. He thought to himself, who would have thought that the battle between the Art Saint and the Guqin Devil still had this much influence on people? There should be a lot of people who look forward to a battle between their disciples.

It was a pity that Hua Fengliu was so inferior now, going around begging others like a stray dog. It was only natural that his disciple would not amount to the brilliant Zhou Mu.

"Father," his children called to him. Standing behind Mu Hong, Mu Yunqing, and Mu Yunni were going to be sick. They never expected Ye Futian to show up out of the blue and never in a million years did they think their father would say such things. There was no way that the Art Saint and the School of the Emperor Star were not offended by Mu Hong's words.

Even Ye Futian was stunned by Mu Hong. Ye Futian remembered this man vividly. After all, he was the first person that Hua Fengliu introduced him to upon their arrival in the City of Donghai. He could not believe that Mu Hong would say these things in this setting.

Looking to the Mu siblings who stood behind their father, he gave them a meaningful smile. Just as he thought, the siblings did not have the guts to complain to Mu Hong. It was probably because they were too embarrassed.

"Greetings, Senior," Ye Futian suddenly greeted Mu Hong with a smile. He continued, "When I met you I thought that you were a brilliant man and that your children were destined to become the best of the best. I only found out that they were students of the Flirting Star school when I entered the academy. Under your guidance, your children must be very talented."

Hua Fengliu blinked a couple of times. He looked at his disciple, speechless. Could Ye Futian be more brazen? But why did he anticipate what would happen next?

Hua Fengliu was not the only one who was shocked by Ye Futian. The students of Donghai Academy all looked dumbfoundedly at Ye Futian. Weren't the Mu siblings the very first people that Ye Futian beat up on his first day at the academy? How deep was this rivalry that Ye Futian had to play with Mu Hong in this way?

"Although Yunqing and Yunni can't claim to be geniuses, they are still pretty gifted. 'Very talented' would be right," Mu Hong said confidently. Mu Yunni pulled at her father's clothes from behind and whispered, "Father, stop talking already."

"Hmm?" Mu Hong furrowed his eyebrows. His head tilted in confusion.

"Very talented indeed. I have witnessed this first-hand on my first day at the academy. The two of them have inherited your Life Spirit and possess extraordinary gifts. A chip off the old block if you will," laughed Ye Futian. Everyone's expression darkened. This rascal...

The Mu siblings looked extremely awkward. They were so embarrassed. Mu Yunni glared at Ye Futian. This jerk was doing this on purpose!

Observing the looks on his children's faces, Mu Hong began to realize that something wasn't right. He asked, "How did the battle go that day?"

Mu Yunqing and Mu Yunni lowered their heads. Their hatred for Ye Futian strengthened.

There was no chance Mu Hong could stay oblivious at this point. His expression fell immediately when he finally realized that he had fallen into Ye Futian's trap.

Turning his attention away from his children, Mu Hong looked at Ye Futian once again. He forced a smile on his face and said, "You are indeed the Guqin Devil's disciple. It seems that you are extremely gifted. It is fortunate that these two incompetent rascals know to be embarrassed. They didn't dare to mention the battle to me. Since I've already witnessed the abilities of the Art Saint's disciple, I am now more interested to know just how outstanding the Guqin Devil's disciple is."

Ye Futian snickered at the sight of Mu Hong. This guy couldn't seem to get enough of offending others.

"Father!" Mu Yunqing called out to Mu Hong again. Simultaneously, a voice rang out from the direction of the group from the Emperor Star school, "Have you had enough?"

Mu Hong froze. His gaze shifted in the direction of the voice and saw the icy gazes on himself. Zhou Mu has also been glaring at him coldly from his spot on the battle platform. Even as he returned to his seat with the others from the School of the Emperor Star, Zhou Mu continued to glare at Mu Hong. His battle with Ye Futian was also the most humiliating for him. What was Mu Hong trying to do, bringing it up again?

Mu Hong suddenly felt like the public enemy. He thought to himself, what on earth happened?

"I admit that my disciple is not on par with Hua Fengliu's disciple. After his defeat last time, I already told Zhou Mu to focus all his energy on cultivation. I don't think that it is necessary for Brother Mu to bring up this topic again, right?" someone said softly. Everyone shivered.

It was the Art Saint who spoke.

Mu Hong froze with his eyes on the Art Saint. His heart pounded rapidly. He finally understood why everyone was looking at him, and why Ye Futian looked at him funny.

So, the Art Saint's disciple, Zhou Mu, already had an exchange with the Guqin Devil's disciple. What's more was that he was defeated.

His eyes twitched. He turned to glare at his own children. Oh, how he wanted to give them each a slap across the face. These two brats didn't bring him any intel on Ye Futian.

Upon having another look at the Art Saint and the officials of the School of the Emperor Star, Mu Hong knew exactly what kind of effects his words had.

"Please forgive me, Brother Hua. I had no idea of any of this. I had no intentions of offending anyone," Mu Hong apologized.

The Art Saint turned his gaze away, not looking at Mu Hong. At this Mu Hong's lips twitched. His piercing eyes turned to Ye Futian.

Ye Futian felt wronged. He was completely clueless when he first arrived at the assembly. Mu Hong was the one who offended everyone with a single sentence. All he could do was to go along with him.

At this time, many clueless outsiders observed Ye Futian. The Guqin Devil's disciple actually defeated the Art Saint's disciple?

Lin Xiyue, who had her eyes trained on Ye Futian the whole time, smiled and said, "I didn't expect that he would become so powerful after getting into Donghai Academy."

"He was still slightly inferior back at the Luo Palace, but then he actually defeated Zhou Mu." Xiao He was also shocked.

"Let's continue," said Han Mo. He did not want to dwell on this topic any longer. Today was the Emperor Star school's day to shine but Ye Futian has stolen the spotlight. His mere existence was an annoyance. And then, that idiot Mu Hong just had to start a fight with him. Mu Hong's actions just now inadvertently humiliated the School of the Emperor Star.

More disciples from the school stepped out and the Assembly of the Seven Schools continued.

Ye Futian and the Guqin Devil sat with the School of the Finance Star. They quietly watched the assembly progress. They deduced that the Emperor Star school was targeting the Finance Star school. Ye Futian was fuming inwardly. At the same time, he could only sigh because he knew how sly the School of the Emperor Star was. Even if he stepped up, he could only fight. It would not help the situation at all.

As a whole, the School of the Finance Star could not compare to the School of the Emperor Star. They were completely overpowered.

Watching the students of the Emperor Star school fight, Hua Fengliu reminisced about his days of cultivation there. It was a pity that things were so different now. Everybody has changed. Sitting amongst the group from the Emperor Star school were many familiar faces, but none of them would even look him in the eye anymore. Their attitude towards him and their attitude towards the person who used to be equally as famous as himself, the Art Saint, were completely different.

"Thinking about the past?" Tang Wan observed Hua Fengliu's expression from beside him and asked.

"Don't make fun of me." He smiled bitterly at her.

"You used to be so famous at the academy. It's normal to think about the past," Tang Wan replied. She turned to look ahead. She also thought of her cultivation days. Hua Fengliu wasn't the only one who was famous at Donghai Academy back then. So was the Art Saint, Nandou Wenyin, and herself. They were all extremely gifted.

"I've always had a regret. Master is a person of such high-caliber, but as his disciple, I didn't even get the chance to demonstrate my powers as a Musical Sorcerer before getting kicked out of the academy," sighed Hua Fengliu. Tang Wan nodded. "Elder Qin is indeed very respectable, but Ye Futian was able to prove himself in front of the School of the Emperor Star with one musical piece, the 'Decree of the General'. That should make up for at least a part of your regrets, right?" she asked.

"Yeah," Hua Fengliu nodded.

Time passed little by little. It was dusk. The sky turned a beautiful red. People from Donghai Academy looked up at the beautiful night sky from time to time. It was almost like the end of an era.

"Is he really not going to fight?" asked Lin Xiyue. Her beautiful eyes never left Ye Futian. How could he not fight on a day like this? It was the Assembly of the Seven Schools for crying aloud. Since he was able to defeat Zhou Mu, it was obvious that he was really capable.

Slowly, people stopped stepping on to the battle platform. Everyone began to whisper left and right. Someone laughed as they said, "Today is Donghai Academy's Assembly of the even Schools. The School of the Emperor Star put on such an impressive performance. They have overshadowed the other six schools."

"The School of the Treasury Star wasn't bad either. They only lacked a little in comparison to the Emperor Star school. They can be considered the second-best school of Donghai Academy," someone else commented.

From these comments, everyone knew that the agenda of the assembly was just getting started.

Amongst the group from the Emperor Star school, Han Mo smiled lightly. He turned to look at the Crown Prince and heard Luo Junlin say to Minister Hua, "The person that Minister Zuo favors has not made his move yet."

Minister Hua nodded. He then whispered in the ear of the headmaster of the Emperor Star school. The headmaster wore a strange look on his face but nodded anyway. The headmaster stood up and called out, "Hua Fengliu."

Hua Fengliu lifted his head in confusion. He looked at the headmaster and smiled. "Greetings, Uncle-Master."

The headmaster nodded in response and said, "You used to be a student of our school, so why are you sitting with the School of the Finance Star today?"

"I am here with my disciple today. He is a student of the Finance Star school, so I sat here with him," Hua Fengliu answered calmly.

"Then I have nothing better to say regarding that. The Crown Prince and Minister Hua have graced us with their presence today and would like to witness the powers of the best students of Donghai Academy. Your disciple is extremely gifted but has not stepped up. What is the meaning of that?" the headmaster reprimanded. This was peculiar to everyone watching. Why was the headmaster asking for Ye Futian? However, there were a lot of people who looked forward to witnessing the "outstanding" gifts of the person who defeated the Art Saint's disciple.

Hua Fengliu and Ye Futian felt something was amiss. Was there no other choice but to fight?

At this moment, Ye Futian saw Tang Wan walk to the front with a guqin in her hands.

"Duyou. I purposely carry it with me. The Guqin Devil's disciple can't do without a guqin," she said. Ye Futian gave her a smile. She came prepared in hopes that they could take advantage of this event to make sure the Guqin Devil's name wouldn't be forgotten by the citizens of the City of Donghai.

Ye Futian nodded with a smile and took over the guqin, named Duyou. Let's play a piece for Master today!
The Legend of Futian

Limitless - Chapter 235: A hut at the end of the Star Road

That manic energy was still expanding in all directions and was now covering area tens of thousands of miles away.

This wave of energy destroyed all in its way, it’s destructive power many times greater than a tornado. 

This aged piece of land had been quiet for aeons.

But the four strange occurrences really did live up to their name.

It was no worse than the other three.

Chu Yu could only imagine how many people were affected by the wave just now.

However, the immediate area around the statue was calm.

Chu Yu could keenly feel that the blood aura from his vertical eye, and it was like an incredibly powerful being!

That blood aura was terrifying!

Even though the ancient statue had calmed down, his heart was not settled.

He stood there, dumbfounded. After a long pause he heaved a sigh of relief.

"F*ck me... that was scary!"

Chu Yu patted his chest and shook his head, laughing bitterly.

His vertical eye was also quite the willful thing. No matter what it did, it never discussed it beforehand with Chu Yu.

Could it be that the origins of this vertical eye are more complex than he imagined?

Greater origins?

More ancient?

How else could it suppress such a terrifying ancient divine stone statue?

It was not willing to be at the base, opting instead to be on top of its head.

Furthermore, from start to finish, it was unaffected by the rage of the divine statue...

"But the question is, why haven’t you been so powerful before this? Your defences are also useless in the face of superior cultivators?"

Chu Yu murmured.

But as he thought about it, he realized that the strength of the defences were likely linked to the energy he absorbed. 

The more energy he absorbed, the stronger the shield.

It was too mysterious.

Chu Yu shook his head, not wanting to think about it. 

From a cause and effect perspective, he had quite the connection with this metal ball.

Since he was already on the head of the stone statue, he might as well try his luck.

He did not know if his audacity would piss off the stone statue so much that it did not want to give him anything.

But he was wrong.

He knelt on top of the head of the ancient divine stone statue and placed his hands on the stone. In that instant, his consciousness was drawn into a mystical space!

He felt like he was being controlled and dragged into the space.

Chu Yu did not even have an opportunity to resist.

Then, he was shocked.

He was in a completely foreign universe!

The path beneath his legs was grey.

Huge rotating stars surrounded him. Some stars in the distance shone brightly, lighting up the entire galaxy.

There were millions of stars!

"Where is this?"

Chu Yu was shocked, this was not a question of courage.

In the face of the unknown, no one could remain calm.

He did not know if it was just his consciousness that was brought here, or if his physical body was here too.

It all felt very real when he touched his limbs and face.

He pinched himself, Ow, how painful!  
F*ck!
Chu Yu’s strength was too great, his pinch could destroy the head of a Supreme Realm cultivator!

Even though his physical body was tough, this pinch was enough to make him grit his teeth.

"God damn it."

Chu Yu continued following this grey path.

Time did not seem to carry any meaning here.

As he walked, he retrieved the pocket watch from his storage ring. 

This was a superior mechanical watch. However, because he had not worn it for some time, the hands had stopped moving.

The date that it was stopped at was the day Hou Yi sent him into the Mirror World.

The moment the watch felt his pulse, it began moving energetically again.

According to his watch, Chu Yu had been walking for over 20 days!

This road was paved with a foreign material and it felt like cold stone to his touch. God knew how many years it had existed in this world.

No aura radiated from this road. He could use the energy in his body to run at great speeds, but he had no way of flying.

He could not even use the Racing Sacred Art.

Over the past few days, Chu Yu kept running. He had lost count of how far he had ran.

The road ahead seemed endless and the path stretched to the horizon.

There was nothing at his back and Chu Yu did not even know if he was going in the right direction. 

But he realized that there wasn’t much that could go wrong, he was facing this direction when he entered.

Another 20 days past. In the blink of an eye, Chu Yu had spent more than a month and a half here. The road ahead still looked bleak.

He finally stopped running and wondered if he had gotten the place wrong.

He looked around his surroundings and observed that the stars had significant differences from those he saw initially.

This was sufficient to prove that the road was real and he was not running on the spot.

But when will he reach the end?

Chu Yu stopped for three days but still could not find a worthy clue.

He even used his vertical eye to observe his surroundings. However, this place had nothing to hide!

What he saw with his vertical eye was exactly the same as what he saw with his naked eye.

"This feeling sucks."

Chu Yu murmured to himself in exasperation.

It had already been two months since he entered this place.

Chu Yu was still not at the end, and he had not seen anything different from the beginning.

Other than the fact that the stars around him kept changing, everything else was the same.

He tried to break away from this road and go into the sky. He wanted to get up on a star and see if it’ll give him a better view of the road ahead. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

But he could not stray away from the path for extended periods of time.

Supreme Realm cultivators were too weak.

Even though he was much more powerful than other Supreme Realm cultivators, he could not traverse the universe.

In the blink of an eye, six months had passed!

Chu Yu’s body underwent much changes.

He slowed down and began to cultivate.

There was no spiritual energy here, but he had various pills and spiritual stones.

On this lonely star route, the most common sight was Chu Yu holding a spiritual stone and sucking the spiritual energy from it whilst sprinting manically.

His cultivation level kept rising. After about half a year, he had virtually used up all of his pills and spiritual stones.

He was also at the advanced stages of the Supreme Realm.

The Nascent Soul in his Dantian was becoming stronger and tougher.

The surface of the Nascent Soul was filled with blood vessel like purple gas!

But he still could not see the end of the road.

The road was too long!

Chu Yu felt like he could not continue any longer.

However, at this moment, his brain suddenly remembered what Yi said when he sent the four people into the Mirror World.

"There are three tests, testing your wisdom, strength and courage."

What was this road?

Wisdom? 

Probably not?

What would wisdom do here?  

Estimating how long this road was? Or understanding something through this lonely road?

Chu Yu was not gaining much.

Strength was of no meaning here.

No matter how strong he was, he could not detract from this star route for too long and he could not break the route either.

Furthermore, what good would breaking it do?

Courage? 

That seems... a little more likely.

Without courage, he could not finish walking down this route.

Chu Yu was quite the stubborn individual.

He could stand loneliness and had courage, but anyone who walked along this endless and lonely road would feel lost too.

He did not even expect it, but he walked for three full years!

If not for the calendar on his watch, he would not believe it himself.

He had run out of spiritual stones and medicine.

Anything that he could use to cultivate had been used by him.

Even the Spirit Stunning Bow was rendered useless by his Gluttonous Sacred Art.

Even though the energy in it was lost, he was reluctant to throw it away.

Even though he hesitated about eating the replica Divine Punisher Blade, he ended up ‘eating’ it anyways.

He ‘ate’ this blade for over two years.

As a Supreme Realm cultivator, he could go hundreds of years without eating or drinking, but he could not stop cultivating.

All he had left was the Immortal Crane Furnace.

All his magical equipment were reduced to a pile of metal.

On the last day of the third year, Chu Yu suddenly saw a fuzzy aura on the horizon.

It was almost as if chaotic energy enveloped it.

This was the first change in the starry road that Chu Yu had seen for the past three years, bar the changes in the stars.

He felt a wave of fire rise in his heart, there was hope!  

He hastened his steps! 

It looked extremely close, but Chu Yu took half a month to get there.

Three years and 15 days later, Chu Yu finally saw the end of this starry road.

It was an ancient hut. It was enveloped by a mixed aura and sat at the end of the star road.

He was quite excited, but Chu Yu was still slightly apprehensive.


Where is this?

Why is there an ancient hut at the end of the starry road?

When he neared, Chu Yu stood within the chaotic energy and bowed towards the hut, "May I ask if someone is inside?"

"Come on in, the door is unlocked."

An ancient voice rang out.

F*ck me!

Chu Yu got the fright of his life!

He jumped out of his skin!

What the f*ck was going on? 

I was just trying my luck, I had no hope that there was someone here!

How could there be people in such a place?

"Why? Little fella, you must have been walking for years? Now that you’re here, you don’t dare to enter?"

The ancient voice mocked. 

Chu Yu felt his head go numb, this scene was too quirky!

Since he was here, even if the people inside wanted to harm him, he may not be able to escape.

As such, he steeled himself and pushed open the broken wooden door of the hut and walked in.

With a creak, the wooden door opened and Chu Yu walked in.

The interior was dark, no light entered the room.

A blurry figure sat in the middle of the room.

Chu Yu could not even make out the appearance of the man. After entering this house, he seemed to become a normal human.

He did not try to open his vertical eye. Instead, he bowed respectfully.

"Junior’s name is Chu Yu, greetings senior!"

"No, don’t call me senior, just call me brother." The ancient voice said.

Limitless - Chapter 234: Angering the God

Xu Xiaoxian’s magical formation drew energy from the ground!

No wonder she’s not like other magical formation specialists who use various magical equipment and spiritual stones to set up.

Her magical formation skills are already so powerful!

Regardless of environment and location, she could accurately determine the meridians in the ground, even in the Devastated World!

Chu Yu had his vertical eye, so he could clearly see that Xu Xiaoxian could accurately find the energy meridians deep in the Earth and change its direction.

This formed a very special type of field!

After she rearranged the area, it looked like there was no change on the surface, but, in actual fact, the magnetic field, layout and energy... had all changed immensely.

This type of ability was too stunning!

Xu Xiaoxian sauntered around this area, she had already completely changed this place into a defensive five layered formation.

Then, she took out the Heavenly Demon Instrument, a table and a chair.

She even took out a teapot and rubbed her fingers, igniting a fire underneath.

The water in the teapot was from a spiritual spring. It boiled all of a sudden, a low rumbling noise filling the surrounding.

At this point, the black dot in the sky became bigger and bigger and appeared in front of the two of them.

Dong Xiaoyan’s expression was dangerous, her eyes burning with fire.

Her body radiated with the aura of a True Lord!

A wave of suppressive power crashed towards Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian.

"How do you two want to die?"

Dong Xiaoyan asked icily.

Xu Xiaoxian smiled, "Little b*tch, since you’re here and so confident, why not you take a break and let’s chat before we fight. Let’s not destroy the scenery here."

"B*tch!"

Dong Xiaoyan bellowed, "Seeing your face makes me lose my appetite, how ugly! What could I possibly have to say to you? Go to hell!"

Then, she attacked with a sacred art.

This was a bolt of lightning!

The speed of light was too quick.

But this lightning bolt was stopped in its tracks.

It disappeared into thin air before it could even reach Xu Xiaoxian.

It could not penetrate the defences!

Dong Xiaoyan was stunned.

"I’m ugly?"

Xu Xiaoxian smiled and revealed her true appearance. "Anyone who judges a book by its cover is scum. B*tch, open your eyes and see if I’m really ugly!"

Hiss!  

Dong Xiaoyan gasped and looked at Xu Xiaoxian hesitantly.

On one hand, her True Lord level attack had not hit home.

On the other hand, Xu Xiaoxian’s appearance had left an indelible mark on her!

"You... you are... you are Xu Xiaoxian? The demon girl from the Demon Sect?"

Indeed!

Chu Yu thought to himself, Xu Xiaoxian is someone quite famous.

"Aren’t you dead?"

Dong Xiaoyan gasped in horror.

"I am a saint from a saint sect!" Xu Xiaoxian laughed icily, then began to strum the instrument, "Little b*tch, you think you’re qualified to call me ugly?"

Hum!

A melodious tune rang out.

But Dong Xiaoyan’s expression changed, almost as if she saw the most terrifying thing on Earth. She turned and ran!

"Do you think that you’re very powerful just because you got some benefits? How naive!"

Xu Xiaoxian said faintly as she continued strumming.

In the air, the True Lord Realm Dong Xiaoyan shuddered, then, began to dance!

Her movements were rather graceful!

Her movements were fluid as she twisted around, her long, slender thighs showing through her dress.

However, her expression was pained as she screamed, "Kill me... but don’t... humiliate me!"

Xu Xiaoxian ignored her, turned her head and smiled at Chu Yu, "Letting you watch risque dancing."

Chu Yu was speechless.

At this point, Dong Xiaoyan began to take off all her clothes.

She had no control over her own body as she removed her clothes, piece by piece.

But she was keenly aware of what she was doing!

The scene in the sky became more and more risque. Chu Yu coughed lightly, "I think that’s enough..."

Xu Xiaoxian chuckled, "Why, don’t you like risque dancing? How about a different kind? How about we get her here to find a steel pole?"

"..." Chu Yu was speechless, "Enough, don’t play around."

Not fun!

Faking seriousness!

Fake morality!

Xu Xiaoxian repeated this to herself before her gaze turned icy and her hands flew over the instrument.

A whole string of notes were played.

All of a sudden, Dong Xiaoyan’s body exploded into a cloud of blood!

A Heaven’s Pride Talent was dead in the Devastated World even before she had the opportunity to kill her way into the Solar System.

Chu Yu frowned, he had no objection to killing this lady.

But doing so in such a gory manner left a bitter taste in his mouth.

Xu Xiaoxian smiled, "Okay, now the world is a better place!"

Chu Yu shook his head, "Let’s go."

Xu Xiaoxian stiffened slightly, "Where to?"

"The ancient stone statue!"

  ...…

Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian came to the base of the statue once again. This time, there was no one else. 

The huge stone statue towered over them.

This time, Chu Yu did not hesitate and walked straight up to the stone statue.

Xu Xiaoxian bit her lip and hesitated. Then, she shouted, "Hey, don’t be brash. This statue is still quite quirky, do you want to reconsider?"

Chu Yu turned and glanced at her, "Is there a difference between dying at the hands of this statue and dying at the hands of powerful cultivators on the battlefield?"  

"Of course!" Xu Xiaoxian blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at Chu Yu, "At least your death will be delayed."

"How do you know that I will definitely die when I touch this statue?" Chu Yu smiled and came to the base of the statue. He somersaulted... then flew into the air.

This leap was not his intention!

It was something his vertical eye made him do!

He was like Dong Xiaoyan when she was controlled by Xu Xiaoxian, he could not control his actions!

The vertical eye had no intention of letting Chu Yu stand at the base of the statue!  

"Don’t!"

Xu Xiaoxian paled and reminded.

As one of the four strange occurrences, the ancient stone statue was not only dangerous upon contact.

Anyone who dares to disrespect it was also in danger.

But her reminder came too late!

As Chu Yu flew into the sky and past the base of the statue, a ray of white light shot towards Chu Yu!

If Chu Yu opened his vertical eye, he could see that this ray of light originated from a finger of the ancient stone statue!

What a despicable being! 

Where would Chu Yu find the time to open his vertical eye?  

All he felt was frustration.

Even though he was brash and wanted to gain some legacy from the ancient stone statue, he had never thought of jumping to the top of the statue!

He had never thought about such a blasphemous act.

He was set up!

Chu Yu felt a wave of helplessness when the white light shot towards him.

But in the next moment, Chu Yu was stunned.

That white light... disappeared!

Xu Xiaoxian did not even see what happened!

However, Chu Yu knew. In that moment, a wave of energy exploded from his vertical eye and hit the ray of white light.

Then, that ray of white light disappeared!

At this point, Chu Yu was already at the stone statue’s chest.

The eyes of the statue shot out two more rays of light!

This time, even Xu Xiaoxian could not help but retreat. 

The two rays of light had such terrifying suppressive energies. It could decimate anything in its way!

Xu Xiaoxian had no doubt that if the two rays of light were directed at her... she would be dead even if she had Saint level magical equipment. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

She would be turned into a pool of blood!

Perhaps... even vaporized.

Chu Yu’s forehead once again shot out a wave of energy to destroy the two rays of light!

At this point, the statue seemed to be enraged by what was happening.

Its body radiated with terrifying energy.

This energy was like a tsunami, unstoppable and destructive!

Even though it was invisible and formless, the entire area around the statue was heaved into the air!

It was like a terrifying explosion!

Apocalyptic!

Xu Xiaoxian immediately activated the defensive magical formation that she formed using the meridians in the ground. An incredibly powerful defensive shield enveloped her.

However, the shield actually cracked and looked like it was about to shatter in the face of the energy!

Xu Xiaoxian immediately took out a jade bottle and tunneled into it.

Boom!

The energy broke through and threw the jade bottle into the air. In an instant, it disappeared.

This entire statue looked like it was a god which came back to life, and it was furious!

The statue still stood there whilst the ground was thrown into the air in a thousand mile radius, almost as if an apocalyptic tornado had hit.

Black clouds rolled in the sky and it was accompanied by booming thunder.

No one would dare enter this area!

The manic energy could be felt even tens of thousands of miles away.

This was a raging god!

Many of the Heaven’s Pride Talents saw the scene and stared in awe, mouth agape.

"What happened over there?"

"Why does it feel like... a powerful energy fluctuation?"

"Not good... retreat!"


All of them saw the huge rocks and land... tens of thousands of miles away, sail towards them.

All of their expressions changed!

They turned and ran!

F*ck, which b*stard did this? Was it necessary to break the sky like that? 

Almost everyone was cursing.

Chu Yu, who had caused this, looked on as Xu Xiaoxian tunneled into a jade bottle and was blown away. Then, he saw himself... guided by his vertical eye, land on the head of the statue.

The huge head was almost like an arena. Chu Yu landed on top, lost.

He saw the divine statue raging, destroying everything around it.

At the same time, rays of light, much sharper than blades, shot towards him.

It was almost as if this raging god wanted to kill this audacious kid.

His vertical eye also seemed to rage and suddenly exploded with a wave of blood aura! 

Yes, blood aura!

Then, the divine statue calmed down.
Limitless

Limitless - Chapter 233: The Four Strange Occurrences

Dong Xiaoyan looked on in aghast and stuttered, "I, I’m not going!"

"Then I’ll kill you now!" Xu Xiaoxian said coldly.

"Then kill me!" Dong Xiaoyan was so afraid that she would rather die than step forward.

Even though the plump youth seemed to have gotten something good with his arm regenerating an him escaping, the way the youth with the mole exploded was too terrifying.

Up till now, Dong Xiaoyan still could not forget the scene.

A wave of fury flashed past Xu Xiaoxian’s forehead, "Do you really think I won’t kill you?"

A ball of light appeared in her palm and slapped towards Dong Xiaoyan’s head.

"Stop!"

That icy youth suddenly exclaimed, "I’ll go!"

Dong Xiaoyan looked at this young man with teary eyes as she bit her lip. She wanted to say something, but words failed her.

She was utterly devastated.

This icy gaze youth looked at Xu Xiaoxian and said, "If I die in your hands, my School will never let you off! If I manage to escape, I’ll never let you off!"

One of his arms was broken and he was pale. He had tried apologizing before. But now, he suspected that these two demonic sect disciples had never planned on letting them go!

If admitting his mistake and being humiliated could ensure his survival, he would gladly do it.

A gentleman could adapt and do what it takes to survive!

However, if that was not going to help, why humiliate yourself? 

He might as well die like a man!

Even though he was nervous and scared for his life, he continued walking towards the ancient stone statue.

His footsteps were heavy, almost as if he was walking to his death.

This place was clearly ancient and the times had taken their toll on the statue.

He finally reached the base of the statue. He grit his teeth and placed his hand on the foot of the ancient stone statue.

Xu Xiaoxian and Chu Yu tended up, even Dong Xiaoyan looked on nervously.

However, nothing abnormal happened.  

His limb did not regenerate. There was no reaction at all.

It was almost as if... what he touched was just a normal stone statue.

Even the youth was in disbelief, Did I change location midway?

No matter how hard he tried, he could not get any response.

Chu Yu learnt from his lesson and did not use his vertical eye to look at the entire statue, choosing instead to focus on the spot the youth was touching. 

The wave of suppressive energy still existed and suffocated him, but it was not as terrifying as when he looked at the entire stone statue.

He realized that the light on the statue will disappear wherever the youth touched.

This meant that, what he touched... was actually pure rock.

What’s going on?

Chu Yu could not understand it.

After some time, although feeling a little disappointed, the youth heaved a sigh of relief.

Before him, even though the plump youth did not get much, he had managed to get a new hand and his freedom after touching the statue.

In their present state, freedom was the most precious.

He wanted to escape, but his body was sealed, rendering it impossible for him to run.

At this point, Xu Xiaoxian said, "You come back, you go!"

She looked at Dong Xiaoyan.

Then she murmured, "How useless, he couldn’t get the legacy, and he didn’t die, what a waste!"

The youth was furious and he walked back, his expression dark.

Dong Xiaoyan was calmer. She still did not know why the youth with the mole had died such a horrible death, but after seeing the plump one get his freedom and the other alright, she had a little more confidence. 

She walked towards the statue.

Then, when she brushed past the icy youth, she whispered, "Thank you."

That youth replied, "Take care."

Xu Xiaoxian was expressionless and Chu Yu was calmed.

Dong Xiaoyan walked to the base of the statue, hesitated, then stretched out her hand.

When she contacted the stone, her heart was in her throat.

Hum!

The huge statue suddenly shuddered and hummed.

Then, a ray of light entered Dong Xiaoyan’s body from the statue.

Dong Xiaoyan’s aura exploded! 

Xu Xiaoxian did not hesitate to offer up a sword and fire it at Dong Xiaoyan!

Zoom!

The flying sword took to the air! 

It looked like it was going to pierce Dong Xiaoyan’s forehead.

Suddenly, the ancient statue shone with a bright screen of light and enveloped Dong Xiaoyan inside.

Xu Xiaoxian’s sword impacted the light screen and exploded with a bang! 
That was a superior sword that Xu Xiaoxian had been refining for many years.

With it shattered, she was hit too and a small trail of blood trickled from her mouth. Then, she looked over in aghast.

Chu Yu was also awed, he never expected Dong Xiaoyan to be rewarded so handsomely.

The icy young man stood there, dumbfounded and envious.

However, he hoped that Dong Xiaoyan could gain more, then kill these two immediately!

The seals on Dong Xiaoyan’s body were instantly gushed open.

The energy in her body kept increasing.

Chu Yu opened his vertical eye and looked over. All he saw was a red ray of light connecting to Dong Xiaoyan from the stone statue.

Almost as if it was imparting something to her.

"Not good!"

Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu, "Let’s go!"

As she spoke, a glow appeared in her hand. It was a sword!

The icy youth’s head flew into the sky!

Bloody shot meters into the sky!

One of the most powerful talents of the Mirror World was dead.

A Supreme Realm cultivator has a Nascent Soul in his Dantian, which supposedly provides him an extra life.

But it was still weak. Before his Nascent Soul could run away, Xu Xiaoxian stabbed it through the Dantian.

She looked at the stone statue and said reluctantly, "This is quite the legacy, after she breaks through, we are unlikely to be her match, run!"

Then, she led Chu Yu away into the distance.

In the moment Chu Yu left, he saw Dong Xiaoyan, enveloped by the light of the stone statue, stare in their direction.

Her eyes were filled with hatred!

At this point, Xu Xiaoxian had already brought Chu Yu far far away.

This aged and barren land had no life or death. It was completely silent.

The two of them flew for two days before stopping.

Xu Xiaoxian was clearly depressed as she said, "I didn’t expect that that b*tch would get such a powerful legacy."

Chu Yu asked, You know what she gained?"

Xu Xiaoxian nodded, "Back in the day, my demon ancestors had entered and explored most of this place. This ancient stone statue is one of the four biggest strange occurrences in the Devastated World." 

"Four biggest strange occurrences?" Chu Yu looked at Xu Xiaoxian and thought to himself, This girl seems to know a lot.

Xu Xiaoxian also thought about it and laughed dryly, "The first strange occurrence is known as the Immortal Refining Land. Whoever goes there will die! 

Chu Yu’s mouth twitched and he looked at Xu Xiaoxian out of the corner of his eye, "How can this place ever be strange, it is just barren land."

"No no no, there are life forms there." Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu and said, "In fact, if you could get there, you would understand. There are all sorts of medicine and mystical life forms there. However, those life forms would not leave the Immortal Refining Land. Else, do you think saints are so stupid and would go there to court death?"

  
"..." Chu Yu was speechless, Yea, that’s true.

"The second strange occurrence is this ancient stone statue."

Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu, "It is said that this statue is modelled after a real Immortal and contains his consciousness. As such, anyone who comes here will receive a different legacy. However, every now and then, something strange or bad would happen, just like what happened to that unlucky one."

"Immortal, someone more powerful than saints should not actually be killing youths of cultivation levels equivalent to ants right?" Chu Yu asked skeptically.

Xu Xiaoxian said worriedly, "Who can tell for sure? Furthermore, anything that happens in the Devastated World cannot be measured and understood with our logic."

Then, Xu Xiaoxian looked out into the distance and said, "The third strange occurrence is the Dead Sea... it is completely unrelated to the Dead Sea on Earth. It is said that there are many remains of Immortals there and various Immortal magical equipment."

"There’s such a place?" Chu Yu was shocked.

"Mm, and many people have gotten great benefits from there, becoming Saint in just over a decade." Xu Xiaoxian explained, "However, many people who go there are shredded to pulp even before they reach the water of the Dead Sea! Even saints cannot resist the killing power!"

Chu Yu felt a chill down his spine. All of a sudden, he felt that whilst the Devastated World could promise much returns, it was also filled with danger.

"The fourth strange occurrence is known as the Heavenly Mountains. It is deep inside the Devastated World and is filled with danger. Many of those who came on expeditions were really powerful people."

Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu, "They were all saints and Legendary Emperors."

Those were truly powerful cultivators!

Xu Xiaoxian chuckled, "Many of those powerful cultivators died here. As such... there is the story of the four strange occurrences."

Chu Yu asked, "That means that the ancient stone statue that we saw is already the mildest one of the four?"

Xu Xiaoxian nodded, "Indeed."

At this point, a small black dot appeared in the sky some distance away.

Xu Xiaoxian’s eyebrows raised and she exclaimed, "Damn it, that b*tch has a tracking device, I should have killed her then!"

Chu Yu did not expect that the girl would chase them all the way here. Clearly, her feud with Xu Xiaoxian ran deep.

In the face of powerful opposition, Xu Xiaoxian remained calm and began setting up her magical arrays.

This was the first time Chu Yu saw her setting up her magical formations and he opened his vertical eye!

What he saw awed him.
Limitless

Limitless - Chapter 232: Ancient Divine Stone Statue

What a terrifying punch!

Over the past few days, Chu Yu had been studying mostly unarmed combat techniques.

Through the Superclass’s help to combine and improve the techniques, these had all combined to become something uniquely Chu Yu’s.

This punch looked quite simple, but the plump youth felt like he was completely rooted to the spot!

He was unable to dodge it!

In exasperation, he channeled all the energy in his body into his arm and punched at Chu Yu’s fist.

Bang!

After a dull impact, there was the crisp sound of bone cracking.

This slightly plump youth’s fist... disappeared!

"Ow!" The plump youth had not expected his opponent to be this powerful. His fist was completely shattered and the pain made him beg for death as he howled.

At the same time, the golden blade was also sent flying by Chu Yu’s Divine Punisher Blade.

It must be said that the golden blade was also a treasure. It was able to withstand two blows from the replica Divine Punisher Blade.

Chu Yu was like a war god. After punching the plump youth, he once again used the Racing Sacred Art.

He chased after the golden blade, open his mouth, and sucked!

The golden blade hovered in the air for a while before all its energy was sucked into Chu Yu’s stomach. 

The energy replenished and energized Chu Yu, increasing his battle power.

He immediately sent the youth with the mole flying.

In the blink of an eye, all four of them were defeated!

The only lady, Dong Xiaoyan, was captured. The plump youth had his fist smashed, the icy youth had his arm chopped off and the youth with a mole was sent flying.

All of them lost their immense battle power.

After being defeated, they tried to escape, but they were all captured and sealed by Chu Yu.

The four youths were all stunned.

The hate and poisonous glow in their eyes was gone, all that was left was shock and fear.

"We are all from superior schools, let us go, we will not do this again." The plump youth lowered his head in shame.

His fist was completely smashed and the immense pain made him feel like fainting.

It was a good thing he was a powerful cultivator. Any ordinary person would not be able to withstand such injuries. 

Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian dragged the four of them towards the ancient divine stone statue.

On the way there, Chu Yu asked Xu Xiaoxian if she knew that the ancient divine stone statue was acting strangely.

Xu Xiaoxian smiled and remained silent.

Chu Yu was so angry he rolled his eyes. If this girl was so innocent, she wouldn’t be Xu Xiaoxian.

It was a good thing they met these unlucky people, else, they would be the unlucky ones

"Aiya, it’s just a legend, it may not be true," Xu Xiaoxian chirped.

Just a legend?

May not be true?

Chu Yu rolled his eyes.

These four unlucky ones were on the brink of breaking as they neared the ancient divine stone statue.

The second one to admit his mistake was the icy young man. His eyes no longer had that cold glow and his expression was pained.

His arm was smashed. Even though it had stopped bleeding, the pain, discomfort and psychological hurt was relatively large.

Afterall, they were some of the best talents in the Mirror World. Even though they were not the most superior talents, they were not far off.

To come into the Devastated World and have such misfortune befall them was not the end they wanted.

They didn’t even think about it.

The youth with the mole and the lady, Dong Xiaoyan, also drooped their heads and begged for their lives.

But Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian ignored them.

What did they do before? And now they’re begging for their lives?

In the air, there were sporadic rays of energy flying by, glowing in various colors. They looked quite pretty, but these were quite dangerous.

Along the way, these four unlucky ones were hit a few times by the energy rays and the sustained serious injuries.

They finally stumbled their way to the ancient divine stone statue.

From afar, Chu Yu saw a huge stone statue rising from the horizon.

It was at least 200m high!

The stone statue was extremely ancient and the surface showed years of abuse. Upon closer inspection, the statue was filled with slashes and hacks!

Some were over half a meter in depth whilst others were shallow.

The stone statue exuded an aura of time, but other than that, there was no suppressive aura.

Xu Xiaoxian looked at the four of them, then kicked he butt of the youth with a mole, "Go, go and see what’s in store for you!"

"Why me?"

At this point, none of them wanted to be the first.

They had already heard of news about this stone statue. Some had managed to gain incredible sacred arts from it whilst others had bad luck befall them. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com  

Some even died here!

No one knew why, but those with bad luck would lose memory of that period after the entire incident. 

They could not understand what happened.

Furthermore, the lost memory could not be recovered!  

Even a saint could not find out what happened then.

"If you don’t go, I’ll kill you." Xu Xiaoxian said coldly.

The youth with the mole was on the verge of tears. He cried, "Senior, I know my mistake... please let me go."

"Who is your senior?" Xu Xiaoxian replied coldly, "Go now, or I’ll kill you right away!"

The four of them thought of Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian as mature powers. They knew the talents of their generation and the techniques of these two did not match any of them. 

When Chu Yu used the Gluttonous Sacred Art, he was thought of as a demon power.

The four of them used the Voice Transmission Technique to communicate amongst themselves. They surmised that these two were demon powers who managed to sneak in with the crowd.

Out of the Devastated World, they must be extremely powerful cultivators.

In exasperation, the youth with the mole could only bite his lips and walk towards the stone statue.

He looked like the walking dead.

"You may even get some great benefits from this." Xu Xiaoxian encouraged.

The youth with the mole thought so too, If I really do, you two will be dead!

He finally reached the base of the stone statue.

The stone statue was enormous and he looked like an ant standing under it.

He grit his teeth and placed his hand on the toe of the statue.

Bang!

His body exploded!

Even his Nascent Soul shattered in this moment!

His soul scattered!

Everyone became silent in that instant!

Chu Yu glanced at Xu Xiaoxian, "Is this what you mean by... there may not be danger?"

Xu Xiaoxian also paled and frowned slightly. She murmured, "This isn’t right? Under normal circumstances, this shouldn’t happen?"

The other three were scared sh*tless, rage and fear filling up their eyes. 

They also felt that something was amiss.

Never before had a cultivator been killed by the stone statue immediately.

From beginning to end, the stone statue did not exude any aura or energy.

It just stood there imposingly.

Other than that, nothing else could be felt.

Chu Yu tried to use his vertical eye to take a look at the stone statue.

"Argh!"

He grunted and retreated a couple of steps.

Blood flowed from his forehead. 

Xu Xiaoxian was shocked and she looked at Chu Yu, "What happened to you?"

The other three also looked at Chu Yu with fear.

"I’m fine... just a slight headache." Chu Yu wiped off the blood on his forehead and sighed.

He got the shock of his life when he looked at the stone statue!

Under the observation of his vertical eye, how could the ordinary looking stone statue still look ordinary?

It was clearly an extremely powerful deity!

It was contained within the statue and glowed with a glaring, intense light!

This level of suppression was something Chu Yu had never felt before.

It was almost as if he was face to face with a god!

Chu Yu felt like he was going to die after just a single peep!

The blood from his forehead was a result of his vertical eye taking a hit and piercing his forehead!

This stone statue... is rather weird indeed!

How long has it been here? Why does it still react this way?

Chu Yu was incredibly shocked.

Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu with confusion. She knew that Chu Yu was not simple and had a lot of secrets. He also had some methods to preserve life.

Seeing Chu Yu injured made her think twice about her plan.

She kicked the plump youth, "You, go!"

"Can... I not go?" The plump youth was on the verge of crumbling, tears streaming down his face. 

"Then I will kill you now!" Xu Xiaoxian said sinisterly.

The plump youth shrunk and sniffled, "okay... I’ll go now?"

Then, he stepped towards the statue apprehensively  

When he arrived, he placed his remaining hand on the statue.

At this point, something miraculous happened!

The plump youth’s body glowed with a faint light. At the same time, the statue flowed too, almost in response.

Hum!

A light hum ensued and the youth’s a new hand began to grow from his wound!

At the same time, all the seals on his body were released in that instant!
  
"Haha, I’ve actually recovered!"

He looked extremely surprised as he laughed out loudly.

Then... he turned and ran!

He did not benefit, but he regained his freedom!

As he ran, he hollered, "Seniors, I will go and find help for you all right now!"

Chu Yu retrieved the Spirit Stunning Bow and fired it at the plump youth!

Based on his cultivation level, he could launch terrifying attacks with the Spirit Stunning Bow 

A bright ray of light cut through the air!

In the next moment, an extremely humongous turtle shell, over a hundred meters in diameter, appeared on the youth’s back!

Bang!

The attack from the Spirit Stunning Bow impacted the turtle shell.

The plump youth took the opportunity to gain some distance. He kept the turtle shell and disappeared without a trace.

Xu Xiaoxian’s lips twitched, "Recovered? How naive!"

Then, she looked at Dong Xiaoyan, "Your turn!"
Limitless

Limitless - Chapter 231: 2 VS 4

After having been energized and hyped, the group of Mirror World talents strode through the doors of the Devastated World.

After entering, Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian rushed off in a particular direction.

Chu Yu saw Yan Xudong bring Ling Shi, together with the other tier one school talents, in another direction.

Clearly, they had their own targets too.

This piece of the Devastated World had been open for quite some time. As such, where the various legacies were had been mapped out and the top schools had some ideas on where to find what they wanted.

Xu Xiaoxian was extremely quick, almost as if she did not want anyone to know where she was heading to.


As such, not only was she extremely secretive in her movements, she kept changing identities.

In the end, she and Chu Yu looked like two complete strangers!

This time, there were over a thousand people entering the Devastated World and there was no way of recognizing everyone.

This place was too big!

It looked like it was within the Mirror World, but they were two different entities.

Furthermore, even though this was only one corner of the ancient world, it had an incredibly large area.

Xu Xiaoxian also had quite powerful techniques. It was almost as if she wanted to race Chu Yu as she sped along.

She flew by like a rocket and appeared in the distance in the blink of an eye.

Chu Yu used the Racing Sacred Art and followed behind without much trouble.

If the two of them were to fight now, Chu Yu did not have much confidence. Xu Xiaoxian seemed to have some trump cards hidden away.

But in terms of speed, Chu Yu was not disadvantaged at all. 

The spiritual energy in the Devastated World was weak and there was virtually no life. 

Looking out, the entire area looked bleak and lifeless.


Chu Yu had already followed Xu Xiaoxian for over two hours and she showed no signs of stopping.

At this point, they saw a few figures in the distance.

Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian found the traces of the group at the same time the group found them.  

Then, the group came charging over.

Xu Xiaoxian stopped in her tracks and used the Voice Transmission Technique, "Not friendly!"

Chu Yu could already feel it.

He recognized these people. They were from second tier schools.

In the championship, they were outstanding talents.

The three males and one girl were also extremely quick.

They stopped in front of the two of them and sized Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian up.

One of them was a youth about 18-19 years old. He was dark skinned and had a huge mole at his forehead, making him look a little weird.

He looked at Xu Xiaoxian and Chu Yu and asked, "Which school are you all from? Why do you all look so foreign?"

Xu Xiaoxian had taken on the appearance of an ordinary and freckled girl.

Chu Yu was an ordinary looking youth of medium build.

Xu Xiaoxian looked at the group of them, "What business do you have?"

The other rather handsome but icy youth in his twenties said flatly, "You must be here for that ancient stone statue? That statue is ours."

Xu Xiaoxian scoffed, "What a joke, can you take it away?"

"No." The youth looked coldly at Xu Xiaoxian, "But I don’t want you two seemingly dodgy people to get it."

Xu Xiaoxian looked on mockingly, "Since you know about the ancient statue, then you should know that it’s unknown what kind of opportunity you would be given! Do you have nothing better to do?"

"Who are you talking about?" The cold youth looked at Xu Xiaoxian with hatred.

"Okay, enough, stop faking, tell us, what do you want to do?" Xu Xiaoxian stopped smiling and looked at these four people icily.

Chu Yu could feel that they had other motives too.

He wanted to spite them, Bunch of new students with no experience, so full of sh*t!

"Surrender to us!" The girl could not take it any longer and shouted, "The ancient stone statue is quite strange, we want you to explore it first!"

Then, she immediately attacked Xu Xiaoxian! 

In her view, this ugly girl was much easier to defeat.

This girl used extremely underhand methods. She looked like she was lunging at Xu Xiaoxian, but she was actually offering up a silver string!

The silver string was extremely quick and looked like a silver ray of light!

It went straight for Xu Xiaoxian!

Xu Xiaoxian glared icily, then a sudden glow of light appeared on her fingers as she swiped at the string.

"Restrain!"

The girl bellowed.

Shing!

Xu Xiaoxian’s finger and the silver string contacted and the shrill sound of metal grinding against each other rang out.

The girl chuckled icily, "Naive... what?"

Before she could finish her sentence, the silver string broke with a snap!

It was cut in half and fell to the ground!

Afterwhich, Xu Xiaoxian lunged at the girl.

She raised her palm and slapped her!

"B*tch!"

Pa!

A crisp sound rang out.

The girl was slapped by Xu Xiaoxian.

Then, she was choked.

"Stop!"

"Let her go!"

"Go to hell!"

The other three males raged and surrounded Xu Xiaoxian.

Xu Xiaoxian quickly and efficiently sealed this girl.

Then she kicked her and said coldly, "If you don’t want her to die, stay where you are!" 

"What do you want to do? Quickly let her go!" The male with the mole bellowed icily.

Xu Xiaoxian choked the sealed girl and said coldly, "I heard that the ancient stone statue is quite strange, let me send her to explore it!"

"How dare you!" The youth with the mole bellowed, "She is a talented disciple of the Green Willow School!"

The Green Willow School was a tier two school, ranked 16 in the Mirror World.

 

They were relatively famous in the Mirror World.

This lady was named Dong Xiaoyan and she was a Supreme Realm cultivator.

She would not have been defeated by Xu Xiaoxian this easily under normal circumstances. However, she was inexperienced and underestimated her opponent.

Xu Xiaoxian also had very powerful magical equipment capable of suppressing cultivators of similar cultivation level. When she got up close, she activated them before attacking.

"Yo, how scary, my heart is beating so hard." Xu Xiaoxian exaggerated her expression, then laughed coly, "We are already so dodgy, do we care which school you’re from?"

At this point, Dong Xiaoyan, whose face was half swollen, dangled from Xu Xiaoxian’s hand, but she was still incredibly stubborn.

"There are only 50 schools here. When the time comes, we just have to eliminate them one by one... and we’ll know which school you’re from!"

"And then what?" Xu Xiaoxian said sinisterly.

"Senior Dong, don’t say anything!" The youth with the mole said, then looked at Xu Xiaoxian, "What do you want before you’ll let her go?"

"What a joke." Xu Xiaoxian’s lips twitched, "We did not antagonize you, but you came to challenge us. Wait, not challenge, but rob us of our expedition. Now that your partner is captured, you want us to release her so easily? Are you the owner of the Mirror World? Must everyone listen to you?"

The group was silent.

A white skinned and slightly plump youth looked at Xu Xiaoxian and said, "Senior, we were wrong, tell us, what must we do before you will release her?"

As he spoke, he used the Voice Transmission Technique to have his two partners attack Chu Yu... and take him down!

Xu Xiaoxian also communicated to Chu Yu, "They’re coming for you."

At this point, the youth with the mole offered up a magical equipment. It was a golden sword and it flew straight at Chu Yu’s left shoulder.

That plump youth also offered up a magical equipment. It looked like something made from gold and it flew towards Chu Yu’s right shoulder.

The third youth charged towards Chu Yu. In the blink of an eye, he pulled out an ancient sword and chopped at Chu Yu’s legs.

Chu Yu used the Racing Sacred Art and disappeared from his original spot. Then, he took out the replica Divine Punisher Blade and chopped at the gold blade from the youth with the mole.

Bong!

A deafening clash rang out.
  
Chu Yu retreated a few steps.

At this moment, that golden item smashed towards Chu Yu at an incredible speed!

It locked onto Chu Yu and followed him everywhere.

It penetrated Chu Yu’s protective energy and closed in on Chu Yu’s right shoulder.

At the critical moment, Chu Yu dodged to the sight and the golden item brushed past Chu Yu’s shoulder.

Zoom!

Chu Yu’s clothes were torn apart and pain radiated from his shoulder. The terrifying energy from this metal bangle tore a wound in his shoulder.

Blood flowed out from the wound.

At this point, the icy young man arrived!

The sword in his hand swiped at Chu Yu’s legs mercilessly.

The blade had an icy glow and looked incredibly sharp!


Chu Yu retreated a few steps, right into the sword.

F*ck me!

What a bunch of f*ckers!

Other than the inexperienced lady who was taken down so easily by Xu Xiaoxian, these three guys were incredibly vicious!

Clearly, this was not the first time they were doing this.

Chu Yu adjusted the terrifying energy in his body and channeled them all into his feet. He then maximised the Racing Sacred Art!

With a ‘zoom!’ his figure shot into the sky like a cannonball.

  
Then, he used the Gluttonous Sacred Art and sucked at the golden bangle rushing towards him!

The energy from the golden bangle was instantly absorbed by Chu Yu.

After the slightly plump youth controlling the golden bangle gasped, his expression changed and he looked at Chu Yu in aghast, "You’re a demon!"

At this point, Chu Yu’s replica Divine Punisher Blade chopped down at the icy young man!

Recently, Chu Yu had cooped himself up in the libraries of the Sky Dazed School, studying tons of techniques.


As such, right now, his sword techniques were way better than before, and he was extremely adept at wielding a sword!

Chu Yu’s actions were also incredibly quick, and he had great strength. This swipe had severed the hand of the icy youth.

"Ah!"

This young man screamed in pain, his face contorting as he retreated.


The youth with the mole once again directed the golden blade at Chu Yu.


This time... he directed it at Chu Yu’s forehead!

They realized that this man seemed even scarier than the lady!

Chu Yu’s body was like a phantom. His speed was incredible and he wielded the replica Divine Punisher Blade in hand as he chopped down on the golden blade.

At the same time, he dodged to the side and charged at the slightly plump youth.

He raised his fist and punched!
