Chapter 1596: Chapter 1597: Unexpected Joy
Three Martial Emperors and one at the Pinnacle of the Nascent Soul Realm, although their realms were not as superficially high as the woman’s before, they had not exceeded the normal level for their respective realms.
Had it been any one of them alone, Su Cheng was confident that together with the Heaven-Mending Stone, he could eliminate the opponent instantly.
But facing four adversaries, even with the assistance of the Heaven-Mending Stone, it was impossible for Su Chengyu to thoroughly eliminate the other side in a few breaths’ time.
Su Chengyu’s realm is now firmly at the Nascent Soul Eighth Layer, and although only a hair’s breadth from the Ninth Layer, even a forced breakthrough would only just reach the near-peak of the Nascent Soul Ninth Layer, still far from the Hollow Void Realm.
This is also why Su Chengyu had been cautious and steady every step of the way.
He cannot afford any errors, for now, he has chosen to confront the entire Luo Clan, any mistake with his strength could spell doom for himself or Xu Nanzhi.
"Who exactly are you! What is your purpose in sneaking into the Luo Clan’s Blessed Realm?"
The Nascent Soul Cultivator of the Luo Clan was completely enraged by Su Chengyu’s words, struggling against the Heaven-Mending Stone while furiously berating Su Chengyu.
However, Su Chengyu only sneered upon seeing this: "Who I am is none of your business. Go back and tell your Luo Clan Chief that I’ve come to take your clan’s most valuable treasure this time; consider it my calling card!"
Upon finishing his words, Su Chengyu looked up into the distance, locking onto an aura that was expanding its Divine Sense towards this location.
With one hand grasping Dragon Slayer, and mana concealing the sword’s unique aura, Su Chengyu slowly waved the blade, a never-before-seen Sword Momentum emerging along the blade. In an instant, it was as if time stood still, the moisture in the air condensed into droplets, and the massive power of Heaven and Earth converged under Su Chengyu’s sword.
"Suppress the River!"
The moment the words fell, the stagnant time immediately resumed its flow, the condensed moisture in the sky reversed its course and gathered aloft.
From dots to lines, from lines to streams, numerous streams crisscrossed in the air, turning into a massive crimson-eyed dragon glaring at the core of the Luo Clan’s territory.
Accompanied by the dragon’s roar that echoed through the heavens and the earth, the dragon took the form of rolling waves and crashed heavily into the heart of the Luo Clan’s territory.
And because of this sword strike, those Luo Clan Elders who had previously sensed some anomalies finally confirmed the fact that an outsider had intruded into the Luo Clan’s Blessed Realm.
However, faced with Su Chengyu’s sword strike, a group of Martial Emperors and Earth Immortals hesitated for a moment and did not take action right away.
This sword strike might not be the most lethal in terms of killing power, but it carried an indescribable force of the Heavenly Dao, which, with the augmentation of that Dao’s power, could incapacitate without killing, even cause grave injuries or damage to one’s foundation.
Unable to fully neutralize it, no one wanted to gamble their future against this sword.
Watching the colossal dragon about to reach the center of the Luo Clan’s habitation, a thunderous shout emerged from within the Luo Clan Ancestral Hall.
"Who is this insignificant scoundrel, daring to probe the depths of our Luo Clan with the power of Cause and Effect? Do you really think the Luo Clan is without defenders?"
With the words ending, a Martial God Phantom appeared mid-air, its hundred-zhang figure appearing even more massive than the dragon, and the glaring Martial God, grabbing hold of the dragon with one hand, caused the surrounding Martial Emperors and Earth Immortals to immediately frown at its immense presence.
Bang!
With a loud bang, the dragon that came with great momentum instantly turned into countless water vapors, dissipating between heaven and earth.
The impressive sword strike from Su Chengyu left not even a trace of residual force.
"Pursue!"
Following the Great Elder of the Luo Clan’s command, the three Martial Emperors of the Luo Clan immediately prepared to give chase.
"No need, after that sword strike, the fellow concealed their presence — what could you possibly chase down now?"
The commanding tone, which did not show outward anger, made all the Elders of the Luo Clan stiffen.
The words of the ancestor seemed unemotional, but they could feel an almost imperceptible pressure of an Immortal in the air.
"It’s our fault for not guarding properly. We are ready to accept any punishment from the ancestors."
"Humph! Punishment? What’s the use of punishment? Now is a critical time for our Luo Clan. It’s not surprising that the petty thieves are eyeing us. Strengthen the guard; I don’t want to see any accidents."
"Yes!"
All the Martial Emperor and Hollow Void warriors of the Luo Clan bowed their heads and accepted the order.
After this farce, the entire Luo Clan began to be on full alert.
Inside a temporary underground cave in the hinterland of the Luo Clan, Su Chengyu suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, enduring the pain as he swallowed an elixir.
Feeling the medicinal effect enter his body and after taking a few deep breaths, the pallor of Su Chengyu’s face finally began to ease.
"Why bother? That sword strike wasn’t even fully completed, was it? Tried to steal a chicken only to lose the rice, right?"
The Heaven-Mending Stone was on guard for Su Chengyu and spoke irritably.
In its view, Su Chengyu’s sword strike was clearly just a display of power.
It was already excessive to forcefully unleash a sword momentum capable of threatening both the Hollow Void and Martial God, and yet he insisted on using the Power of Cause and Effect that he had just barely grasped recently - it was clearly self-inflicted suffering.
Su Chengyu replied with a pained smile, "I had no choice. Since they were bound to notice me anyway, I had to make them wary. Using that sword strike was the only thing I could think of without revealing my identity."
Slaying Monster, Immortal Decapitating, and Demon Extinguishing could achieve similar effects, and even without the Power of Cause and Effect, they could sufficiently restrain those common Martial Emperor Hollow Voids. That should be enough.
But the biggest problem was that Su Chengyu couldn’t guarantee if anyone within the Luo Clan had specifically studied him. Those three sword strikes had been used in public many times after all, and he didn’t want any careful people to suspect that he had deeply infiltrated the Luo Clan, which led him to this desperate move.
"Does it make any sense to hide your identity? Just to provide better cover for that Martial God from a foreign country you know? To be honest, I don’t think he can play a decisive role here."
The Heaven-Mending Stone openly expressed its skepticism.
Su Chengyu replied with a bleak smile, without retorting, "That may be true, but if I can fight for even a slight advantage, I must. After all..."
"You also know that what you’re doing now is like a moth to a flame?"
The Heaven-Mending Stone said bluntly.
"It’s true, but I have no way out."
The Heaven-Mending Stone, confirming that no one had followed them, subdued its presence and flew in front of Su Chengyu with a rare seriousness, "Don’t say I didn’t warn you, but it’s not just one person who took note of that sword strike of yours. You know what that means, right?"
Su Chengyu was silent for a moment, then said, "There is more than one Earth Immortal within the Luo Clan."
"So, what are you planning to do?"
Su Chengyu smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, then looked down at the ground. He looked at the strange marks recently left on the ground and spoke softly.
"But it seems that I’m not the only one who has infiltrated the Luo Clan."
After that sword strike, Su Chengyu had indeed not thought too much of it, only wanting to leave the scene as quickly as possible to avoid being encircled by the experts of the Luo Clan.
What Su Chengyu did not expect was that on his escape route, he would stumble upon such an unexpected discovery.
This was a somewhat familiar but distinctly different aura from before.
