Book 07 Chapter 058: A Blessing or a Disaster?

The Eighth Cycle sent Long Shenwu flying, his complexion flushing.

“Again!” Long Shenwu charged back with a ferocious expression.

“Hah!” On the other side, the Southern Sea Dragon King also rushed back.

Although Ao Sheng was quite a bit weaker, he also rushed back.

“You aim to kill us here, right? Bring it on! We have the power of our nation. Let’s see who will be killing whom!” Gu Hai quickly swung his saber with a stony expression.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

When the Life Executioner Saber appeared, purple light soared into the sky. Gu Hai’s saber light filled the surroundings, forcing the three experts back.

Long Shenwu was using the power of his nation, but he only had one hundred cities left. On the other hand, Gu Hai had severalfold more cities than Long Shenwu. Even just using the Eighth Cycle, he severely injured the others.

“Long Shenying, what are you doing? Quickly make your move!” the Southern Sea Dragon King roared after Gu Hai inflicted many bleeding wounds on him.

Gu Hai’s face sank. He no longer dared to hesitate and attacked even faster, making blood spurt from the three’s bodies.

“Gu Hai, you just have more blessings than me. You are nothing without the blessings!” Long Shenwu roared furiously.

Many wounds riddled Long Shenwu’s body, spurting blood. He felt incredibly furious at being suppressed by Gu Hai.

Even when teaming up, the three could not defeat Gu Hai.

“Long Shenying!” the Southern Sea Dragon King roared again.

“I’m coming. Stop shouting!” Long Shenying snorted coldly and appeared behind the three.

A sea of black liquid loomed behind Long Shenying, with countless malicious spirits howling in it. At the center of the malicious spirits was a pitch-black worm commanding them. This worm looked extremely ugly, baring its fangs and sticking its tongue out. There was a smaller mouth on the tongue, revealing countless fangs as it howled at Gu Hai.

“This is?” Gu Hai felt his hair stand on end.

“Quickly, trap him!” the Southern Sea Dragon King roared.

Long Shenying slowly operated that black sea. All the Corpse Energy in the lifespan ritual array poured over as if heeding the black sea’s command.

“Go!” Long Shenying shouted.

Boom!

The black sea poured towards Gu Hai; his pupils constricted at the sight.

“Ninth…Cycle!” Gu Hai glared.

Billions of saber Qi appeared, pouring into the Life Executioner Saber’s manifested saber. The Ninth Cycle could shatter a galaxy. The manifested saber’s might immediately increased a hundredfold. The manifested saber swung down, looking like it could chop apart the world.

“Argh!” Ao Sheng, the Southern Sea Dragon King, and Long Shenwu let out pained cries.

Boom!

Even when bringing out their full power, they could not beat the Ninth Cycle. Blood sprayed out from the three, revealing white bones as they flew off while spewing mouthfuls of blood.

The attack created an extremely massive black hole.

However, the black hole did not affect the black sea, which continued pouring over.

Long Shenying’s face hardened as he punched to counter the Ninth Cycle.

Boom!

The fist and the saber clashed, and an explosion knocked Long Shenying into the air.

Blargh!

Long Shenying spewed a mouthful of blood as he stabilized himself.

The manifested saber cut the black sea in half. However, the black sea merged back after being split and instantly engulfed Gu Hai.

Whoosh!

The black sea completely covered Gu Hai.

“Hehehehehe!”

“Hah!”

“Eat him!”

“Human flesh! Human flesh!”

Surging malicious spirits howled as they rushed at Gu Hai.

However, Gu Hai could not move at this moment.

The Ninth Cycle placed a tremendous burden on Gu Hai’s body; the rebound caused him to vomit a mouthful of blood. Although he still had some strength, the malicious spirits charging at him made his body feel leaden, preventing him from moving. No, he could move a little, but it was like trudging through mud; movement was extremely taxing, and escape was out of the question.

Boom!

Millions of malicious spirits plunged into Gu Hai’s body..com

------

Outside, Long Shenying stabilized himself after spewing a mouthful of blood. After all, the three before him had already neutralized a significant portion of the Ninth Cycle’s force. Furthermore, he had the power of his nation, so he did not sustain severe injuries.

“Cough! Cough! Cough! Your Reverence, many thanks for protecting me earlier!” Lifespan Beiming said with lingering fear.

It was not just Long Shenying who operated the black sea; Lifespan Beiming did too. Had Long Shenying not protected Lifespan Beiming earlier, Lifespan Beiming would have died to the Ninth Cycle.

“Lifespan Beiming, how is Gu Hai now?” Long Shenying looked at the black sea hovering before them.

The surrounding shattered space had mended. However, the black sea remained hovering there, encasing Gu Hai while connected to the entire lifespan ritual array.

“Don’t worry. Gu Hai cannot come out. He should be enduring the torture of millions upon millions of malicious spirits and corpse demons. He cannot last for long and will be turned into a corpse demon soon,” Lifespan Beiming said with a sinister smile.

“That was a corpse worm earlier?” Long Shenying said.

“That’s right. The corpse worm is the core of the Burial Mound Lifespan Ritual Array. We turned everyone in the city into corpse demons using the corpse worm before laying the Burial Mound Lifespan Ritual Array. This black sea can be considered the lair of the corpse worm, the corpse lair. The corpse worm controls all the corpse demons and malicious spirits here. They will turn Gu Hai into a corpse demon within the corpse lair. He will die for sure!” Lifespan Beiming said coldly.

“Corpse worm? Hah! It looks like the Spirit Mountain Holy Land is not as righteous as they claim to be. To think they could take out such an evil item? Humph!” Long Shenwu showed a severe expression.

“Is he trapped?” The blood-covered Southern Sea Dragon King flew over.

“Indeed, he is trapped. The corpse lair is full of liquified Corpse Energy, the filthiest energy in the world. It can even corrode blessings. It will soon render his blessings ineffective. Furthermore, this corpse worm is at least one hundred million years old. Corpse Energy is rare in the world. Gu Hai cannot escape with so much Corpse Energy here,” Lifespan Beiming said seriously.

“Can he hear what I say?” the Southern Sea Dragon King asked.

“We can transmit our voices using this corpse worm tooth.” Lifespan Beiming handed over a tooth.

The Southern Sea Dragon King extended his hand to receive it. Then he flew to the side of the corpse lair and operated the tooth to send his voice to Gu Hai.

When the Southern Sea Dragon King flew over, Long Shenying narrowed his eyes slightly.

“Cough! Cough! Cough!” Ao Sheng coughed blood nearby as he got up from the ground. He appeared shocked as he looked at the corpse lair filled with malicious spirits.

“Hah! Hahaha! Southern Sea Dragon King? You…you allied with Long Shenying?” Long Shenwu spewed a mouthful of blood as he climbed out of the rubble.

The Ninth Cycle had torn most of Long Shenwu’s flesh, exposing plenty of white bones; blood spurted everywhere. Furthermore, his bones had broken, making movement difficult.

Whoosh!

Long Shenying instantly arrived before Long Shenwu.

“Long Shenying, what are you trying to do?” Long Shenwu suddenly appeared uncertain.

“Hah! What do you think?” Long Shenying sneered.

“I understand now. Hahaha! This is all a trap you set. You wanted to kill Gu Hai and planned for my Wu Imperial Dynasty to go down with him before collecting the spoils?!” Long Shenwu said in a rage.

“It is too late to figure it out now.” Long Shenying pressed over step by step.

“You want to kill me?” Long Shenwu’s expression changed.

Long Shenying did not say anything as he approached.

“Aren’t you the most filial to Eminent Father? Now that Eminent Father is dead, you want to kill Eminent Father’s son, your younger brother?” Long Shenwu felt somewhat flustered.

“Younger brother? Hahahaha! Did you really think I did not know, my excellent nephew?” Long Shenying sneered.

“What?” Long Shenwu’s expression changed.

Whoosh!

A figure flew over from nearby. It was an enraged Long Sanqian.

“Unfilial son!” Long Sanqian roared furiously.

Long Shenwu’s expression immediately changed dramatically. “You-you…Gu Hai let you go? You went to Long Shenying?”

“Alright, cut the crap and quickly exchange your souls!” Long Shenying said coldly.

Long Shenwu’s expression changed as he climbed to his feet. Then he abruptly shot into the distance.

“You want to flee from me?”

Long Shenying’s eyes turned cold as his figure flashed. He appeared behind Long Shenwu, extended his hand, and caught Long Shenwu’s shoulder.

“Let me go!” Long Shenwu threw a palm strike at Long Shenying’s chest.

Boom!

Long Shenwu’s attack broke the skin on Long Shenying’s shoulder, but Long Shenying’s palm pierced through Long Shenwu’s chest.

Blargh! Long Shenwu spewed a mouthful of blood as he gazed at Long Shenying in shock.

“My patience is limited!” Long Shenying said frostily.

“Don’t ruin my body!” Long Sanqian exhorted anxiously.

“If I don’t do this, he will do some tricks. Hurry! If you don’t exchange your souls, I’ll kill you now!” Long Shenying said coldly.

“Alright! Alright! Alright! I’ll exchange them! I’ll exchange them!” Long Shenwu nodded fearfully.

Long Shenying tossed Long Shenwu to Long Sanqian.

Long Shenwu immediately made a strange sound with his mouth before shouting, “Exchange!”

Whoosh!

A blue light came out of Long Shenwu’s body and entered Long Sanqian’s body. A blue light also came out of Long Sanqian’s body and entered Long Shenwu’s body. They remained still for a while.

The two trembled before quickly distancing themselves from each other.

“I’m back! Cough! Cough! Cough! Hahaha!” Long Shenwu guffawed while vomiting blood.

However, Long Sanqian immediately turned and fled into the distance.

Long Shenying smashed his palm down.

Boom!

Blargh!

Long Sanqian immediately vomited blood and fell to the ground.

“Uncle, Father, this child was wrong! Cough! Cough! Cough!” Long Sanqian vomited more blood as he pleaded in horror.

Long Shenying ignored Long Sanqian. Instead, he walked to Long Shenwu.

“Both of us cultivated Jiangchen’s body. I’ll help you treat your injuries,” Long Shenying said.

As Long Shenying spoke, he placed his hand on Long Shenwu’s body.

Whoosh!

Surging energy poured into Long Shenwu. Long Shenwu’s injuries healed at a visible pace. New flesh grew in mere moments, and his pale complexion became a healthy pink.

On the other hand, Long Shenying’s aura weakened.

After a while, Long Shenwu’s body trembled as he shook off Long Shenying.

“My injuries are all healed?” Long Shenwu said in shock.

“That’s of course. We converted some of the blessings in us into a common energy to help you mend everything,” Long Shenying said seriously.

“Oh? The blessings in you are gone?” Long Shenwu appeared slightly worried.

“There’s no need to worry. During this time, Gu Hai’s blessings will be about drained too. The blessings do not matter. Your recovery is worth it. We share the same energy source. If one of us gets injured, we can help each other recover. Long Shenwu, do you remember what you previously promised me?” Long Shenying said.

Long Shenwu nodded. “Don’t worry. I will join the Ying Imperial Dynasty when we get out.”

Seeing that Long Shenwu did not salute him, Long Shenying frowned slightly. However, this was not the time to get worked up over that, so he just nodded back.

“How capable of your son! How do you want to deal with him?” Long Shenying looked at Long Sanqian.

Long Sanqian appeared horrified, and wounds riddled his body.

“Father, this child was wrong! I don’t dare to in the future!” Long Sanqian immediately said in horror.

Long Shenwu looked over coldly.

Inside the corpse lair:

Surging malicious spirits charged Gu Hai together with vast Corpse Energy. The filthy Corpse Energy quickly eroded the blessings on the surface of his body. However, he found movement difficult now and could only show an extremely unsightly expression.

Whoosh!

The malicious spirits poured into Gu Hai’s body.

The Worldly Sorrowful Endowment immediately circulated, and the heavenly soul rapidly absorbed all the Corpse Energy that came with the malicious spirits.

Whoosh!

The Corpse Energy in the malicious spirits was purified, and they reverted to spiritual souls.

With a thought, Gu Hai sent all the spiritual souls into the Gu’s Immortal Firmament.

“Corpse Energy? That’s a lot of Corpse Energy! This black sea is made of Corpse Energy?” Gu Hai appeared shocked.

Then, he drove the Worldly Sorrowful Endowment with everything he had.

Whoosh!

The surrounding, surging black water cascaded into Gu Hai’s body, rushing into his heavenly soul as his heavenly soul absorbed it.

The surging Corpse Energy and the countless malicious spirits were no longer Gu Hai’s shackles. Instead, they became great nourishment that he quickly absorbed.

Click! Click! Click! Click! Click!

At the center of the many malicious spirits, the corpse worm seemed to have met its nemesis. It howled in horror, commanding countless malicious spirits and corpse demons to charge Gu Hai.
