The night was dark and deep, and the mountains and rivers were silent.

A tall, upright figure hurried through the boundless landscape.

“It’s been less than a year, but the Azure Continent’s spiritual energy is denser than before. I wonder if Lingxue, Qing Wan, and the others’ cultivations have improved....”

Su Yi wandered the stars, hands behind his back, as if out for a leisurely stroll.

“But even if their cultivations were lower, it wouldn’t matter. In my heart, no one else can compare to them.” When Su Yi thought about his old friends, his heart filled with indescribable warmth.

In this lifetime, he’d been reborn into the Azure Continent. Here, he’d established numerous karmic ties, and there were people he cared about.

Admittedly, others might see these old bonds as fetters.

But to Su Yi, these friendships were precious, and he refused to part with them.

Hm? Su Yi suddenly sensed something, and he looked up into the night sky.

Clouds hovered beneath the curtain of darkness, and an illusory blood moon flickered in and out of view, like an eye silently opening and closing. It emanated a strange, mysterious air.

Su Yi’s eyes silently narrowed. He flipped his palm and took out a jade pendant.

The front of the pendant was carved with a strange landscape. In it, mountains and rivers hung upside-down from the dome of heaven, overlooking an abyss!

But from another angle, the image looked like a strange, indifferent eye. The overturned landscape was its pupil, and the depths of this strange eye’s “gaze” were like a formless abyss.

And the back of the pendant was carved with a strange, elaborate, contorted Edict.

This was the jade pendant Qing Wan had once carried!

Now, an illusory blood moon hung in the depths of the night sky, and it bore a striking resemblance to the strange eye on the front of that jade pendant!

Su Yi also remembered that when Qing Wan underwent tribulation, a similar diagram appeared from within her, like a strange eye sweeping its surroundings, destroying the tribulation on all sides!

Now, a blood moon similar to that strange eye had appeared. Su Yi couldn’t help but feel solemn as he realized something was amiss.

“Don’t tell me that something has happened to Qing Wan?” As Su Yi pondered, he took a step through the air and shot toward Meteor Abyss.

......

Meteor Abyss.

Qing Wan’s blood-red dress swayed around her. With every step she took, the image of a crimson lotus bloomed beneath her feet, carrying her higher into the sky.

The night was dark and deep. Her gaze was vacant, her expression indifferent, yet she moved as if she were out for a casual stroll, like an unparalleled goddess of the yao path walking to the moon.

In the depths of the night sky, that indistinct, illusory blood moon gradually turned clearer, and it emanated wisps of blood-red fog.

Like the eye of a deity gazing intently at the human world at night!

“Qing Wan! Stop right there!” Ning Sihua and the others charged, all of them incomparably frantic.

They all had a strong sense of foreboding. If Qing Wang flew to the moon, the consequences would be unimaginable!

But Qing Wan didn’t even seem to notice them. She simply continued ahead.

She wasn’t moving all that quickly, but when Ning Sihua, A’Cang, and the others chased after her, they were forced back, unable to approach.

“Why is this happening?” Wen Lingxue’s heart clenched, and her beautiful face was frantic.

The others felt the same. They too felt deeply helpless.

Yuan Heng and Ying Que disregarded their safety and charged in another attempt to stop Qing Wan.

But in the end, they were forced back, injured and coughing up blood. Neither could stop her.

It seemed there was a strange, invisible power around Qing Wan. Whenever anyone got within three feet of her, they were forced back.

Whoosh~

A tide of blood-red mists permeated the night sky as the moon fully solidified. It simultaneously resembled a strange eye and a mysterious portal to the unknown.

As Qing Wan soared into the air, a figure silently appeared deep within the blood moon.

She was like a goddess, standing beyond the nine heavens, ethereal and unreachable.

Upon closer inspection, she was wearing a simple, long, pale blue dress. Her hair was tied up, and she wore a golden jade crown and a jade belt.

Her right hand gripped a black jade staff a little over a foot long, and she stood atop a platform shrouded in mist. Her figure was illusory and indistinct.

“She... She’s...”

When they saw the woman clearly, Ning Sihua, A’Cang, and the others felt as if they’d been struck by lightning. They almost dared not believe their eyes.

The woman in blue was a picture-perfect, youthful beauty. Shockingly, she was completely identical to Qing Wan!

However, her disposition was starkly different.

She was like a goddess from beyond the nine heavens, standing deep within the blood moon. Although she simply stood there in silence, she emanated a contemptuous majesty, as if she were looking down on all of creation!

Of course Ning Sihua and the others were surprised. How could they not be?

“Don’t tell me there’s another Qing Wan in this world? Or are they perhaps... sisters?” Wen Lingxue murmured.

It really was unbelievable.

“If they were sisters, how could she make Qing Wan suffer like this for months? There’s something wrong with that woman!” Wen Xinzhao’s face frosted over.

Meanwhile, Qing Wan had already arrived beneath the dome of heaven. She wasn’t far from the woman standing in the blood moon!

Her friends’ hearts were on tenterhooks. They felt indescribable bitterness and helplessness.

With their power, there was nothing they could do to stop this!

“If only Master were here...” Yuan Heng sighed and tightly clenched his fists.

It was then that——

A streak of sword qi shot into the air, like the first light of dawn cleaving through the darkness of the night. It instantly illuminated the entire landscape.

The crowd couldn’t help but squint, but they could dimly discern that the streak of sword qi was soaring through the heavens, cleaving through the clouds as it flew toward the woman in the blood moon.

Boom!

The sound of the resulting impact shook both heaven and earth.

The illusory blood moon shook violently, scattering blood-red light.

At the same time, a tall, upright figure appeared out of nowhere, seizing Qing Wan by the waist and flying back to Meteor Abyss.

“Ma-....Master!?” Yuan Heng couldn’t help but rub his eyes. He dared not believe it.

And here he’d only just lamented that if his master were here, he’d be able to turn this situation around.

Who’d have thought it would become a reality? His master was really here!

A’Cang, Ning Sihua, Wen Lingxue, and the others were stunned too. Disbelief was written all over their faces.

A young man in blue stood beneath the dome of heaven, extraordinary and detached, like a banished immortal visiting the human realm.

This was the person they were most familiar with. This was Su Yi!

His arrival was truly completely out of their expectations, and it didn’t feel quite real. They almost thought they were dreaming.

But Su Yi had no time to stop and think. He’d saved Qing Wan, but she was struggling like mad, and even attacking him. She was extraordinarily strong, too.

If his current cultivation weren’t strong enough, she’d have injured him!

Su Yi had no choice but to seal her.

“Look after her for now.” Su Yi tossed Qing Wan to the others. 𝗳𝐫𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝗯𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Only then did his friends react as if awakening from a dream. They rushed over to catch QIng Wan. All of them looked surprised and delighted.

Su Yi’s sudden appearance was indeed surprising, but it was as if they’d found their pillar of support. All of their worries evaporated into thin air.

Meanwhile, Su Yi gazed into the depths of the night sky, his brow furrowing slightly.

The blood moon revolved slowly, scattering blood-colored light. Within its depths, the young woman in blue looked enraged, and she raised her black jade scepter into the air.

The blood moon rumbled and boomed, and a streak of dazzling white light poured down to earth. It looked almost like the light of a tribulation.

Boom! novelbuddy(.)com

The entire stretch of heaven and earth shook violently. The mountains and rivers swayed, and a calamitous aura burst forth, as if intent on destroying the world.

It wasn’t cold, but Ning Sihua and the others couldn’t help but tremble and move further away. All of them were visibly astonished.

This power was like the will of the heavens!

“No wonder this power seems familiar. So, it contains the Laws of Heavenly Prayer!” Su Yi’s eyes shone with a hint of understanding.

Earlier, he’d felt a faint sense of familiarity. Now, he finally realized that the woman identical to Qing Wan didn’t wield the Laws of Heavenly Prayer, but rather, a Mysterious Truth that incorporated the Laws of Heavenly Prayer!

The key difference between the two was that this power was even stronger!

He summoned the Tiny Heart of the Cosmos without the slightest hesitation, then fused a wisp of the Sword of the Nine Hells’ aura into it and attacked.

Bang!!

Her attack reminiscent of a waterfall of tribulation light split down the midline, exploding into nothingness with a resounding explosion. The air was instantly in turmoil.

“What’s your connection to the Nine Heavens Pavilion?” asked Su Yi.

The woman in blue was obviously surprised that Su Yi had destroyed her attack. After a moment’s silence, she said with cold indifference, “If you don’t want to die, get out of my way.”

She spoke like a deity from the nine heavens issuing a divine decree full of imposing majesty.

This behavior was unquestionably domineering and contemptuous.

Su Yi had originally planned to chat with her and get a feel for her origins, but her overbearing attitude made him give up on that idea.

Clang!

The Tiny Heart of the Cosmos let out a clear hum, which reverberated throughout the nine heavens.

Su Yi leaped into the air and swung his sword at the illusory blood moon.

The woman’s eyes widened, as if she couldn’t even imagine how anyone could dare try anything so brazen.

“Throwing your life away.” She shook her head slightly, her gaze calm, without the slightest ripple of surprise.

As she spoke, she waved her black jade staff.

Boom!

Churning calamitous light burst forth, like flood waters breaking through a dam. They interwove with that terrifying power of the Laws, destroying the entire stretch of sky.

Such power was enough to annihilate even an Imperial Apex cultivator!

It destroyed even the Laws of the Azure Continent. They could do nothing to stop this calamitous light!

But Su Yi had long since realized that her power of the Laws was extraordinarily terrifying, and he never had any intention of holding back. He immediately drew upon the power of the Sword of the Nine Hells.

Sword qi pierced the skies, like an axe through rotten wood, scattering that calamitous light!

Boom!

The sword qi struck the illusory blood moon, and a deafening blast rang out. A startling scar appeared on the moon’s surface.

The woman standing within it suffered the impact as well. Her graceful figure swayed, and despite herself, a hint of alarm appeared on her formerly indifferent face.

“Just who are you?” the woman in blue couldn’t help but ask.

As she spoke, heaven and earth trembled around her, as if unable to bear the power within her voice.

Earlier, Su Yi wanted to chat, but she wasn’t willing.

Now, she wanted to chat, but Su Yi wasn’t willing.

His robes billowed around him as he gripped the Tiny Heart of the Cosmos and attacked!
