Chapter 1194: Chapter 1194: Behind the Stone Wall

The battle between Long Xuan and Ye Qingci was still ongoing, and Su ChengYu watched with his heart pounding in fear.

He also couldn’t figure out why Long Xuan wanted to make an enemy of Ye Qingci. This sudden hostility was very strange.

The two had no feud, nor was there anything that they needed to fight over. He simply couldn’t understand why Long Xuan insisted on engaging Ye Qingci in combat, even willing to lend a hand to help Ye Qingci with the Tribulation.

Moreover, constantly keeping an eye on the battle, he clearly saw that Ye Qingci, despite seemingly launching continuous attacks, remained at a disadvantage.

Aside from the time when Ye Qingci suddenly disappeared and reappeared behind Long Xuan, Long Xuan had hardly felt threatened by any of Ye Qingci’s attacks.

With all the offensive moves being neutralized, Ye Qingci’s attacks seemed to have no effect on Long Xuan at all.

That’s why Su ChengYu was nervous, and why — after Jiugui of Yihe had spoken — he desperately hoped for his help in a panic.

He didn’t care about what Ye Qingci thought; he just didn’t want Ye Qingci to die at the hands of Long Xuan.

Even if he would be punished by Ye Qingci afterwards, Su Chengyu had no fear.

Survival was more important than anything else.

"If I save her, can you truly give me the opportunity to ascend to immortality?"

Jiugui of Yihe’s voice once again rang in Su Chengyu’s mind.

Thinking he had changed his mind, Su Chengyu’s heart leaped with joy and he immediately replied, "Of course! That thing is utterly useless to me; who I give it to doesn’t matter. As long as you make your move, I will agree to anything."

"Where is it?"

Su Chengyu hesitated for a moment, then firmly said, "Once Ye Qingci is out of danger, I will naturally take you there."

Jiugui of Yihe suddenly fell silent on the other end, causing Su Chengyu some anxiety.

He also understood that the bait he had thrown was not enticing enough, but it was already the limit of what he could do. The more he said, the more mistakes he could make.

After all, Su Chengyu, who had no idea where this opportunity for ascension was, no longer had any reason to persuade Jiugui of Yihe to make a move.

This was, in Su Chengyu’s opinion, the safest bet he could make.

However, the prolonged lack of any response from Jiugui of Yihe made Su Chengyu somewhat puzzled; just as he was about to look up at the distant Jiugui of Yihe to ask again telepathically.

A chill suddenly surfaced behind Su Chengyu, and Jiugui of Yihe’s voice unceremoniously appeared behind him, "You truly have no idea where the opportunity for ascension is."

The sudden presence behind him caused Su Chengyu’s pupils to dilate instantly; he subconsciously wanted to turn around, but Jiugui of Yihe’s actions were several times faster than Su Chengyu had imagined!

A sharp dagger fell towards Su Chengyu’s body, the True Dragon Armor instantly lit up with intense light, and the phantom of a Traveling Dragon manifested upon Su Chengyu’s body, forcibly resisting the abrupt attack of this Void Expert!

And as the force of the strike was dissipated, the True Dragon Armor, now fully on guard, completely lost its luster, perfectly defending against a surprise attack by an assassin comparable to a Shadow level Ninja from the Peak of the Void. The Traveling Dragon had accomplished much more than it had promised Su ChengYu.

Su Chengyu didn’t waste the precious opportunity that True Dragon Armor had won for him; although he didn’t understand why Jiugui of Yihe had suddenly guessed that he had no knowledge of the opportunity for ascension, his only option right now was to escape!

However, watching Su Chengyu’s figure darting away, Jiugui of Yihe only sneered.

He had absolute confidence in his ability to track Ye Qingci; it was just very difficult to completely hide his presence.

To track Su Chengyu was all too easy for this Shadow-rank Ninja.

With his aura locked onto Su Chengyu, Jiugui of Yihe’s figure blinked, and he immediately appeared in front of Su Chengyu.

Su Chengyu instantly wanted to turn his head, but countless Jiugui of Yihe appeared by his side, completely surrounding him.

"Shadow Clone Technique?"

Su Chengyu couldn’t help but laugh at the show of force before him, "Your Excellency Yihe, you wouldn’t even use this Ninjutsu against Shinazugawa, and here you are using it against me, a mere Nascent Soul Realm practitioner. Is such a grand display really necessary?"

"Why wouldn’t it be necessary? After all, you are my greatest objective on this journey,"

Yihe Jiugui said calmly.

Su Chengyu frowned and immediately said, "Haven’t you known all along that I have no idea where that opportunity to ascend to immortality lies?"

"Hehe,"

Without a word, Yihe Jiugui continued to approach Su Chengyu.

Su Chengyu’s brow tightened, then he took out the map pieced together from the six shattered fragments of the Emperor’s Treasure Seals, "This is everything that was left behind in the Emperor’s Treasure Seals. If you don’t believe me, you can see for yourself."

"Everything? I doubt that’s the case,"

Yihe Jiugui glanced at the map, then turned his head towards Su Chengyu, "What about the six pieces of the True Dragon Reverse Scale?"

Su Chengyu’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Yihe Jiugui, "How do you know about the True Dragon Reverse Scale?!"

Few were aware of the True Dragon Reverse Scale hidden within the Emperor’s Six Treasures.

Shinazugawa Tengen certainly knew, but after several confrontations with Yihe Jiugui and as a competitor for the chance of ascension, even if they decided to join forces against Su Chengyu, he would never share that information with Yihe Jiugui.

"Just as I thought, hand it over,"

Yihe Jiugui commanded coldly, a glimmer of coldness flashing in his eyes.

"This item has already been refined by me and is of no other use..."

Before he could finish speaking, a sharp dagger instantaneously appeared at Su Chengyu’s neck, easily tearing through his Mana-protected body and leaving a faint trail of blood.

"I told you to hand it over."

Feeling the chill on his neck, Su Chengyu didn’t dare utter another word and silently began to separate the True Dragon Armor from within his body.

The armor had already recognized a master, and unless Su Chengyu actively terminated the contract, not even Yihe Jiugui could use it directly.

However, Yihe Jiugui seemed to have no intention of using the armor; his gaze fell upon it as if confirming something, and his eyes suddenly gleamed.

Sensing something amiss, Su Chengyu tentatively addressed one of Yihe Jiugui’s Shadow Clones before him, "What are you trying to do?"

Yihe Jiugui looked at Su Chengyu with a cold laugh, then placed a hand on the True Dragon Armor, "That’s why they say ignorance is bliss, but now this belongs to me!"

As the words fell, Yihe Jiugui’s Mana surged completely into the True Dragon Armor.

The foreign force invading the armor caused the six True Dragon Reverse Scales to instinctively reject it.

The Traveling Dragon residing within them woke up from its slumber in an instant, frantically moving within the armor, obviously in great agony.

Su Chengyu’s brow furrowed, and unable to restrain himself any longer, he shouted at Yihe Jiugui, "What on earth are you doing!"

"Shut up and just watch!"

Yihe Jiugui said coldly. If it weren’t for the fact that Su Chengyu couldn’t die yet, he would have ended this guy without hesitation.

But it would be soon, according to that person, the thing would truly appear before long!

Amidst the glow emitted by the True Dragon Armor, countless stone walls around them began to exhibit a strange resonance, and the Spiritual Energy of the entire world seemed to be activated at that moment, stirring wildly.
