Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 369: Born tough

The bow of this celestial ship is different from the one in the Great Qin Kingdom. There is a celestial gate standing at the bow of the ship, with two celestial gods standing by the gate, exuding an imposing aura.

When the two celestial gods saw Su Yun approaching with a sword, their expressions changed slightly. One of them said, "The Lord is carrying a sword, a clock, and a coffin. Is the Lord planning to harm the God Emperor?"

Su Yun laughed heartily and put away the magnetic divine sword in his hand, wondering, "Isn't this sword Yu Daoyuan's? I thought he was trying to plot against me and destroy the small celestial ship we were riding on with this sword."

He did not put away the large yellow clock and walked through the celestial gate at the bow of the ship.

"Su Scholar, the God Emperor Yu Daoyuan is targeting you," Ying Ying reminded him in a low voice.

"We have nowhere else to go, so we can only take his ship," Su Yun smiled and whispered, but he was feeling uneasy in his heart.

He had no idea about the true strength of the God Emperor Yu Daoyuan, but it could be said that Yu Daoyuan's true combat power was definitely above that of the gods and demons, second only to Yu Jin!

He could fight head-on with Yu Jin at his peak, forcing Yu Jin to use his immortal techniques!

Moreover, this was when Yu Jin knew his techniques and abilities, and understood his weaknesses.

Although Yu Daoyuan was nominally an elder of the Tongtian Pavilion, he would be more than happy to kill Su Yun if he had the chance.

In the past, Su Yun had disguised himself as Zhang San and went to the Western Heavenly Palace, "just like that," all the way to the God Emperor, directly pressing the God Emperor against the wall.

The God Emperor lost face, so Yu Daoyuan personally came to block Su Yun in his daughter Yu Shuangyun's boudoir, but unexpectedly blocked the Three-legged Golden Crow that was going out for a stroll, and was beaten up by the Golden Crow.

This was a personal grudge, as well as a public grudge between the Western Region and Yuanshuo.

But just a personal grudge was enough to kill Su Yun a thousand times over.

Yu Daoyuan took the initiative to invite him, and it was not a good sign!

Lingyue and Hua Hu fell slightly behind and followed Su Yun into the celestial gate. The two celestial gods guarding the gate did not look sideways. Suddenly, several thunderbolts crackled down and struck the heads of the two celestial gods, causing blood to flow down their faces.

The two celestial gods were shocked and angry, but they saw that Lingyue and Hua Hu were also charred by the lightning, and couldn't help but be amazed, "What cultivation level have these two reached to be able to cross the Tribulation?"

However, they quickly realized that Lingyue and Hua Hu didn't seem to have crossed the Tribulation, but were more like being struck by lightning due to their evil deeds.

Behind Lingyue and Hua Hu was Doctor Dong, who was holding up the coffin with his mana. Doctor Dong had the same expression as usual, and the two celestial gods didn't dare to let him take the coffin.

Su Yun walked ahead with a smile on his face. He saw that there were numerous pavilions on the celestial ship, each with a divine being guarding it. The large and small pavilions protected the golden roof of the celestial ship, under which was the God Emperor Yu Daoyuan!

This place was like a small heavenly palace, magnificent and resplendent!

Many celestial gods had solemn and dignified expressions, paying no attention to the arrival of Su Yun and the others.

Su Yun led everyone to the top of the golden roof, where the God Emperor Yu Daoyuan sat. Behind him, rays of light formed a dazzling radiance, showing his extraordinary status and showing no signs of injury.

"His injuries couldn't have healed so quickly."

Su Yun's eyes twitched, thinking to himself, "He is not a god or a demon. Even if he has the faith of the people from various countries in the Western Continent, it is difficult for him to recover so quickly. Yu Jin cut him down to only his upper body, and even going to the toilet would be a problem for him. How much combat power can he have left?"

Apart from Yu Daoyuan, there were also many spiritualists under the golden roof, all of them with colored eyes. Su Yun glanced at them one by one, furrowing his brows slightly. He found that most of these spiritualists were members of the Tongtian Pavilion!

However, these members of the Tongtian Pavilion were all colored-eyed people, without any Yuanshuo people!

He couldn't help but feel a sense of unease in his heart, finally understanding why Luo Wanyi warned him to be careful.

"When the dispute between me and Luo Wanyi for the position of the pavilion master was not yet settled, Bu Qiurong and Senior Brother Yaba advised me that if I failed in the dispute, the Tongtian Pavilion would split and establish another Yuanshuo Tongtian Pavilion. Now it seems that the Western Continent's plan is the same!"

Su Yun thought to himself, "It seems that this time Yu Daoyuan is determined to split the Tongtian Pavilion, not only splitting the Tongtian Pavilion, but also doing more outrageous things. That is, catching up with me, catching up with the other two Yuanshuo Tongtian Pavilion's celestial ships, and wiping us out in one fell swoop!"

There were more than two hundred experts from the Tongtian Pavilion under the golden roof, all sitting on the right side of the God Emperor Yu Daoyuan, while the left side was empty. Obviously, it was prepared for Su Yun and the others!

Ying Ying whispered, "Su Scholar, this is not a good sign. They are planning to bury us directly."

The God Emperor laughed heartily and said loudly, "The Lord's cultivation is truly extraordinary, being able to control the Yellow Clock and fly across the sky with mana, it is truly astonishing. Lord, please take a seat."

Su Yun walked to his left side and sat down calmly, saying, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. To be honest, we encountered difficulties on the way and our celestial ship was hit by the magnetic force, almost falling into disaster. Fortunately, we met Your Majesty, otherwise, I don't know how long it would take us to reach Tian Shi Yuan. Where is Your Majesty heading?"

He did not mention that Yu Daoyuan was an elder of the Tongtian Pavilion.

Yu Daoyuan also did not mention this matter and smiled, "It's quite a coincidence. I am also heading to Tian Shi Yuan. It's rare to travel with the Lord."

Doctor Dong put down the coffin and sat down without saying a word.

Master Lingyue and Hua Hu also sat down, but they were covered by dark clouds. Thunderbolts kept striking the dark clouds in the sky, causing astonishment.Su Yun looked across and smiled, "There are 431 people in the Overseas Heavenly Tower, but only over 200 have arrived. Why hasn't everyone come?"

Emperor Yu Daoyuan sighed, "Lord Su, you don't know. Our Western Continent first had chaos caused by the gods and demons, and then chaos caused by the remnants. Many experts from the Heavenly Tower died in these two chaotic events. After these two disturbances, there are only 298 people left in the Heavenly Tower. There are 216 people on this ship."

Su Yun smiled, "So, some members of the Heavenly Tower still have their own opinions."

Emperor Yu Daoyuan was surprised, "Why do you say that, Lord Su? By the way, let me introduce the Lord of the Overseas Heavenly Tower. Please, Lord Su."

The 216 members of the Heavenly Tower in front of them all bowed and said in unison, "Please, Lord Su!"

Su Yun followed their gaze and saw Luo Wanyi, dressed in men's clothing, walking out from behind the golden roof. She was bright and charming, with a heroic aura, and she sat in front of the 216 people in front of Su Yun.

Emperor Yu Daoyuan sighed, "Our Overseas Heavenly Tower has experienced many hardships, unlike Yuan Shuo. After the chaos caused by the Pan Yang, the gods and demons, and the remnants, we in the Western Continent have learned our lesson. We cannot be without the Heavenly Tower of the Western Continent. That's why we recommended His Majesty the Emperor to be the Lord of the Heavenly Tower."

Su Yun's gaze fell on Luo Wanyi and he remained silent.

Luo Wanyi looked at him indifferently, without saying a word.

Ying Ying became furious and flapped her wings, flying up and shouting, "Are all the countries in the Western Continent ungrateful? If it weren't for Lord Su's efforts to save the thirteen gods and demons, and if it weren't for your Lord leading the people of Yuan Shuo to rush to Da Qin and fight the remnants to the death, you would have long been defeated!"

Hua Hu's voice came from the black clouds, filled with grief and anger, hoarsely saying, "In the battle of Xianlu Mountain, many people from Yuan Shuo died. Are there no righteous people in the Western Continent? Has your conscience been eaten by Lord Gou?"

Luo Wanyi seemed to ignore them, and the more than 200 members of the Heavenly Tower behind her remained silent.

Ying Ying became angry, "After the great battle, the countries need to be rebuilt, but there is no money. It is your Lord who allocated money to your countries, allowing you to rebuild your homes on the ruins!"

Some of the people behind Luo Wanyi looked ashamed, while others remained unchanged. Despite their shame, it did not change their stance.

Doctor Dong said indifferently, "The Heavenly Tower was established over 4,000 years ago. At that time, it was the spiritualists of Yuan Shuo who set foot in the Western Continent, imparting their divine abilities and sowing civilization. During the chaos caused by Pan Yang, it was also the spiritualists of Yuan Shuo who helped you resist."

Su Yun raised his hand to stop them from continuing, his gaze still on Luo Wanyi, and said with a smile, "Is this your intention?"

Luo Wanyi spoke up, "Lord Su should know that after the chaos caused by the gods and demons and the remnants, the Heavenly Tower could still be united. But after the war, it became a struggle between the East and the West. Divine abilities have no homeland, but the people of the Heavenly Tower do."

Su Yun said, "So the Heavenly Tower must split?"

Luo Wanyi nodded, "It must split!"

Emperor Yu Daoyuan raised his hand and smiled, "Wait! Lady Luo, I think the Heavenly Tower doesn't need to split. If the Heavenly Tower splits, we will have to divide the assets, which is not good. As long as the Heavenly Tower of Yuan Shuo is gone, we won't have to divide the assets, right?"

He looked around and spread his hands, "Isn't it a win-win situation?"

The gods of the Heavenly Court all exclaimed, "A win-win situation!"

Behind Luo Wanyi, more and more members of the Overseas Heavenly Tower nodded along with the crowd, gradually saying in unison, "A win-win situation, a win-win situation!"

Doctor Dong's eyes twitched, his palm resting on the wooden box beside him. The black clouds around Ling Yue and Hua Hu suddenly dimmed, gradually dissipating, revealing the figures of the master and disciple. Above their heads, thunder continued to flash in the void, not as shocking as before, but more frightening.

Luo Wanyi suddenly said, "There is another way, and that is to decide who is the Lord of the Heavenly Tower through a battle of strength."

She stood up, and behind her, the Deep Abyss appeared, profound and deep, with the 72 caves imprinted on the sky of the spiritual realm.

"I have already reached the Deep Abyss realm."

Luo Wanyi looked at Su Yun and shouted, "If I lose to you, you will die with the members of the Heavenly Tower in the mainland. If you lose to me, I will be the Lord of the Heavenly Tower, ruling over the mainland and overseas!"

Su Yun remained seated, motionless, and said calmly, "Wanyi, you and I have already determined the outcome. You are not my opponent."

Luo Wanyi's momentum grew stronger, "Last time I lost to you because your realm was higher than mine, that's why I was defeated. But this time, we are both in the Deep Abyss realm, both having reached the Deep Abyss. This is the true battle between equals!"

She made a bold move, directly activating the immortal arts created by Jiang Zushi and Yue Liuxi. Jiang Zushi's immortal arts involved achieving divinity through the physical body, with gods and demons residing in every pore of the body, while Yue Liuxi's immortal arts were the Seven-Colored Immortal Light!

Luo Wanyi simultaneously activated these two immortal arts, raising the power of her physical body and divine abilities to the extreme. This was the great unification technique she had created with her own wisdom!

The Seven-Colored Immortal Light came roaring and arrived at Su Yun's brow in an instant!

At the moment when the Seven-Colored Immortal Light was about to pierce Su Yun's brow, a clear sky appeared behind him, with a bright moon hanging high, and the Deep Abyss was filled with moon laurels.

In the bright moon, Su Yun's spiritual form sat in the heart of the moon.

The Seven-Colored Immortal Light shattered in front of Su Yun, and Luo Wanyi's two fingers pierced Su Yun's brow, but her fingers were instantly broken, her body shook violently, and she flew backwards.

"Boom!"

The Empress of Da Qin crashed heavily into a building, piercing through it!

"You have indeed reached the Deep Abyss realm."Su Yun sighed, his expression melancholic, and said dejectedly, "But, I am already close to reaching the peak of the Deep Abyss. In a little while, I will break through to the Celestial Phenomenon realm."

He spoke as if he was confessing a regretful matter, blaming himself for cultivating too quickly. He said apologetically, "Wan Yi, thank you for your kindness. However..."

Su Yun stood up, the Primordial Magnet Divine Sword appearing in his hand. The tip of the sword pointed diagonally to the ground as he looked at the Divine Emperor Yu Daoyuan, smiling, "Both I and the people of Yuan Shuo are naturally stubborn. Divine Emperor, are you hard or soft now? I really want to test you!"
