159: Chapter 159: Young Master, are you playing with fire?!

Great Sword Immortal Zuo You's earth-shattering sword strike instantly made the four Wilderness Throne Great Demons opposite him stop looking down on him!

Sword Qi and spells collided, and the sound of the massive explosion echoed for hundreds of miles!

Great Sword Immortal Zuo You stood his ground, while the four Throne Great Demons were forced back several steps simultaneously.

The man standing on the head of the divine corpse was named Wu Yue.

Beside him was a spear that pierced through the corpse's skull; legend had it that it contained the most pure lightning law intent in the Wilderness World!

On the other side, atop a Throne of Withered Bones, was the White Bone Great Demon, Bai Ying. Countless bones lay beneath his feet, belonging to both the Yao Race and Human Race Sword Cultivators.

He had even turned an Ancient Great Sword Immortal into a Puppet that had returned to the Peak Realm!

The burly man clad in golden armor was named Niu Dao!

The golden armor he wore was of Immortal Weapon quality, but it was on the verge of shattering, looking more like a cage that imprisoned him!

The last one was a handsome man with an ancient sword-nurturing gourd tied to his waist, named Qie Yun.

He loved collecting the facial skin of beauties, especially those of female cultivators from the mountains!

This was because the skin on Qie Yun's face was a patchwork of pieces!

After Zuo You's sword strike, Wu Yue instantly pulled up his spear and thrust it toward Zuo You like a bolt of lightning, carrying an unparalleled intent of thunder!

Rumble!

Purple thunder rolled across the sky, and a black rift appeared where space had been torn apart!

Zuo You's expression remained indifferent as he casually slashed his sword!

The lightning spear was instantly sent flying back, moving even faster than it had come!

Wu Yue's expression changed drastically. He reached out with both hands to catch the spear, and his palms were instantly sliced open into bloody gashes!

Bai Ying finished the wine in his cup in one gulp and kicked out the skull of the Ancient Great Sword Immortal, which transformed into an old man ten feet tall.

The old man held an ancient sword with staggering Sword Qi, and a blinding rainbow of light shot straight for Zuo You!

Zuo You delivered another casual strike, not only shattering the rainbow of Sword Qi but also slicing the old man's body in half!

In the end, only a white, skeletal head remained, falling back to Bai Ying's feet.

Although this Great Demon sitting on the Throne of Withered Bones had no flesh and blood and his expression could not be seen, his teeth were currently grinding with a 'creak' sound.

Niu Dao and Qie Yun exchanged a glance and attacked simultaneously!

The former stepped onto the earth, and thick golden light flowed out from his golden armor.

Relying on his powerful physique, he actually took a sword strike from Zuo You head-on and remained completely unharmed on the surface!

Meanwhile.

Qie Yun patted the sword-nurturing gourd at his waist, and instantly, over a hundred remnant souls of Sword Immortals and over a hundred Natal Flying Swords flew out!

These Natal Flying Swords were, of course, not all nurtured by Qie Yun alone; they were offerings from his disciples and descendants!

These remnant souls, carrying the Natal Flying Swords and filled with powerful malice and ill intent, swarmed toward Zuo You all at once!

Zuo You frowned slightly.

In an instant, Sword Qi as vast as a tidal wave erupted from the Sword Immortal's body, knocking back all hundred Natal Flying Swords at once!

However, an extremely tiny Natal Flying Sword appeared silently behind Zuo You and lunged fiercely toward his head!

Zuo You's figure flashed as he raised his long sword and flicked away this deeply hidden Natal Flying Sword!

He looked further south, his pupils narrowing slightly.

Yang Simu had just used the twenty percent of Sword Qi he had left in the single-character Flying Sword; he had clearly encountered an unavoidable situation!

After all, Yang Simu had an Immortal Realm and several Jade Purity Realm cultivators by his side; he wouldn't use this trump card easily!

Back at the Great Wall of Sword Qi, Zuo You had taken the jing character seal engraved with the four characters 'Peace of Mind and Contentment' from Yang Simu.

Zuo You had promised Yang Simu that he would strike three times for him!

If Zuo You hadn't suddenly charged into the Wilderness World, then more than just the three Throne Great Demons—Liu Cha, Yang Zhi, and Yuan Shou—would have rushed toward the Danxia Dynasty!

At that time, even if Yang Simu had a Semi-Immortal Weapon Talisman Boat and the black bamboo hat gifted by A Liang that could hide his tracks, he might not have been able to escape!

This was equivalent to Zuo You single-handedly holding back four Throne Great Demons to buy Yang Simu enough time to flee!

Wu Yue stood atop the head of the divine corpse, the flesh on his palms already restored to its original state.

He sneered, "Zuo You, you actually dared to risk killing your way into the Wilderness World alone. It seems the person who struck that sword at the Yeluo River is quite significant to you!"

"By now, he has probably been captured by that woman Yang Zhi!"

Qie Yun also gave a cold laugh. "Zuo You, no matter how thick your Sword Qi is, how many more strikes can you make?"

"Don't forget, this is the Wilderness World. There are plenty of Wilderness Demon Clan members who want to kill a Great Sword Immortal!"

Zuo You's expression remained as usual, showing no reaction to the other's provocations.

The reason he hadn't continued south wasn't because he was worried about being surrounded and killed.

Rather, although Yang Simu had already used Zuo You's twenty percent Sword Qi, a wisp of Zuo You's Sword Intent still remained in his Natal Flying Sword for the time being.

Therefore, Zuo You knew that Yang Simu was fleeing south at high speed, which meant he hadn't been captured by the Wilderness Great Demons.

However, that direction led to the Hundred Thousand Mountains, the territory of the Old Blind Man!

Zuo You was somewhat puzzled; why did Yang Simu choose to flee there?

Even if it was to avoid the pursuit of the Wilderness Great Demons, wasn't he afraid of the ruthless Old Blind Man?

Zuo You's gaze sharpened.

He wasn't as good as Little Qi at thinking about these things.

He still preferred to reason with the long sword in his hand!

In an instant, Sword Qi enveloped the world!

A massive cage of Sword Qi descended upon Wu Yue, Bai Ying, Niu Dao, and Qie Yun simultaneously!

The expressions of the four Wilderness Throne Great Demons changed drastically as they all unleashed their most powerful defensive spells!

...

At this moment, on the Semi-Immortal Weapon Talisman Boat, Yang Simu sat cross-legged in a medicinal tub, eyes closed as he rested.

His face was still pale, but compared to when he had just left the Danxia Dynasty, his spirit and energy had become much more abundant.

At that time, Yang Simu had relied on Dragon Qi and yin-evil ghost qi to briefly reach the Mountain Peak Realm, which took a significant toll on his body. It would likely take half a month to fully recover!

Beside the medicinal tub, Duan Yutong had been looking after Yang Simu, fearing that any accident might occur.

During this time, the woman would occasionally blush as she used a towel to help wipe Yang Simu's body.

After all, with everything that had happened, the root cause was Duan Yutong's invitation to Yang Simu and the others to help the Danxia Dynasty.

As for the matter of Han Su serving as the Danxia Dynasty's Central Peak Mountain God, Duan Yutong did not yet know its significance.

Just then, Xiao Bai's soft voice came from outside the door.

"Young Master, the Hundred Thousand Mountains are just ahead. Are we really going in?"

"This servant has heard that even Ascension Realm Wilderness Great Demons do not dare to lightly set foot here!"

Hearing this, Yang Simu suddenly opened his eyes, which were shining brightly.

He curled his lips slightly and said, "No, we'll wait outside first."

"We'll enter the Hundred Thousand Mountains once the Wilderness Great Demons have arrived!"

Xiao Bai and Duan Yutong could understand the first sentence.

But Yang Simu's second sentence left them completely bewildered!

Young Master, you are playing with fire!

Finished writing late at night; this chapter counts as yesterday's.
