First Immortal of the Sword

Chapter 1102 - He Arrives!

Martial Heaven Peak.

Within a grand hall.

“More and more experts are gathering outside,” the leader of Dragon Tiger Dao Mountain said with concern. His expression was utterly overcast.

The other higher-ups had heavy hearts too. They felt as if they were seated on a bed of needles.

They were from Nine-Star Sword Mountain, Holy Peak Sword Court, the Profound Yellow Sword Court, and the Divine Blue Lightning Sect.

WIth the exception of the long-obliterated Levitating Sword Hall, there were representatives of all of the Six Great Daoist Sects in attendance.

“Your Excellency Pi Mo, the situation has already reached this stage. Don’t you think it’s time you revealed your hand to reassure us?” a high elder from Nine-Star Sword Mountain said gravely.

All eyes were instantly upon the center of the room, where Pi Mo sat.

Not long ago, when they received word that Su Yi planned to come to Martial Heaven Peak to do a little “housecleaning,” these higher-ups urged Pi Mo to retreat with all their might.

But Pi Mo decisively refused, and he told them that he naturally had means of defending against this impending calamity.

However, as time passed and they saw more and more experts gathering outside, the experts of the Five Great Daoist Sects panicked.

Pi Mo swept his gaze across the group, his expression cool and indifferent. “I can tell that you’ve been regretting your decision for a while now. Who knows how many times you’ve cursed me out inside you? But let me ask you this: even if you tried to flee Martial Heaven Peak... how could you hide?”

Without waiting for their response, Pi Mo continued, “I dare say with certainty that if you hide, all my master has to do is give the orders, and countless factions will be delighted to work on his behalf. The whole world will be after you!”

They looked at each other, their expressions dark.

Pi Mo then sharply changed tacks. “Of course, since we chose to remain here, we naturally won’t just sit around and wait to die!”

Here, he rose, then peered outside of the grand hall and into the distant, seemingly endless sea of cultivators.

“My master wants to eliminate me in front of the whole world. He’s nothing if not heartless and decisive. Given that that’s the case, I wouldn’t mind taking this opportunity to crush him in front of the whole world instead!”

The depths of Pi Mo’s eyes blazed as he said softly, “Don’t you think sending a legendary figure plummeting into the dust would be quite interesting?”

The gathered higher-ups sank even deeper into silence. He was once proclaimed sovereign of the Wilds, the man whose sword dominated the heavens. How could it possibly be so easy to defeat him?

Over the years, everyone who dared oppose him has long since been reduced to dust. Dead, with their Daos destroyed!

“I know you lack confidence, but once my master arrives, I’ll naturally let you bear witness as this legendary expert suffers a crushing defeat before Martial Heaven Peak!”

Pi Mo spoke emphatically, and with great conviction.

Everyone present couldn’t help but feel stunned. They could tell that Pi Mo was extremely confident about the grand battle to come!

But it was then that they heard an uproar outside, like a pot boiling over.

“The Swordmaster of Abstruse Force is here!”

“Is he really that legendary expert?”

“The battle the whole world is paying attention to... is about to begin!”

....when the higher-ups of the Five Great Daoist Sects heard this wave of voices emanate from afar, all of them jumped as if someone had pricked them in the butt. Their expressions shifted dramatically.

Su Xuanjun is here!?

Pi Mo was stunned. Then, he took a deep breath. “You’re finally here? Very well. This time... let your disciple send you on your way!”

He then strode into the grand hall.

......

There was an uproar outside. Waves of voices rose on all sides.

All eyes were gazing in the same direction——

There, beneath the distant dome of heaven, a tall, upright figure strolled leisurely between the clouds. He was headed right toward them.

His hands were behind his back, and he was dressed in blue. His long hair fluttered around him, and he looked as transcendent as an immortal.

This was none other than Su Yi!

Jin Kui, Wang Que, Ye Luo, Xuan Ning, and Bai Yi followed him. Five of his legacy disciples had come.

As they watched his gradual approach, the waves of uproar died down. An austere silence enveloped heaven and earth.

It was as if they were witnessing the descent of an immortal. He was wandering the landscape, and everything fell silent around him!

All of this only further offset Su Yi’s transcendent prestige, and it made him the focus of countless gazes.

All of the cultivators in attendance lowered their heads, whether they were prominent powerhouses that ruled entire regions or humble, second-rate cultivators with feeble cultivations. Each had a different look on their face.

Some were excited, others reverent, dazed, or overcome with disbelief.

Although they all felt differently, all of them reacted strongly.

“It really is Brother Su...”

Over in the Nine Extremes Profound Capital’s camp, when Yue Shichan saw Su Yi’s familiar figure, her mind buzzed, and she fell into a daze.

Even though she’d long since predicted that the reincarnation of the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force, the source of the storm sweeping across the Wilds, was the same Su Yi she was familiar with...

When she confirmed this with her own eyes, it was still an enormous shock. It left her in a daze, and she found it difficult to calm herself.

“Back in the Azure Continent, who could have imagined that the Wen Family’s former live-in son-in-law was actually the sole sovereign of the Wilds, the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force?

“No wonder he was always so calm and composed. No wonder he disregarded every danger in his path. How could the obstacles of a mundane world like the Azure Continent possibly be worthy of his attention?

“And how fortunate was I to have earned his approval? And to have him as my guide to the Dao of the Sword?

“Even the Yue Family received his aid. He helped us avert what would have been an utter disaster.”

Yue Shichan’s chest heaved, and her peerlessly beautiful, icy face filled with bewilderment.

Suddenly, a raspy voice broke the silence. “Are you really Old Monster Su!?”

Everyone was startled. They looked over and saw a green arc rising into the air. It then transformed into a scraggly, disheveled, swarthy old man in plain cloth robes.

A startling chain made out of bone was wrapped around the old man’s waist, and as soon as he appeared, a terrifying pressure spread out around him, making the crowd’s hearts tremble.

Over in the Nine Extremes Profound Capital’s camp, the grand high elder gasped. “That old viper is still in the Wilds!?”

Practically simultaneously, the various old fossils in attendance were stunned as they recognized the old man’s identity.

The Skythorn Poison Emperor!

He was an old devil whose name had long since shaken the Wilds. He’d vanished tens of thousands of years ago. Rumor had it, he’d ventured into the depths of outer space to seek out a higher path.

Who’d have thought he’d reappear now of all times?

Every old-timer who recognized the Skythorn Poison Emperor was startled.

There was no doubt about it; if the reincarnation of the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force hadn’t returned to the Wilds, the old viper likely would never have resurfaced!

Su Yi was stunned too, then seemingly rueful. “Long time no see, Skythorn. Didn’t you and the Peerless Martial Emperor leave the Wilds and head into outer space?”

Off in the distance, the Skythorn Poison Emperor was visibly excited. He threw back his head and laughed, “Hahaha! You really are Old Monster Su. I just knew no one would dare impersonate you!”

His laughter boomed like lightning, reverberating throughout heaven and earth. Countless onlookers’ hearts shook. Even old-timers of the Imperial Realm couldn’t help but look startled.

Compared to the Skythorn Poison Emperor, even old-timers like them were mere juniors!

“It would take a long time to explain my situation. Resolve your problems first!” said the Skythorn Poison Emperor. “Just say the word, Old Monster Su, and ol’ Skythorn will be the first to charge onto Martial Heaven and wipe out that dogshit Abstruse Force Alliance!”

His words were utterly contemptuous, and extremely ferocious.

Countless people felt their heart shake, and the crowd was in uproar.

At first, many of them still doubted that the blue-robed young man, a mere Profound Illumination Realm cultivator, really was the reincarnation of the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force.

But now, even his old acquaintance, the Skythorn Poison Emperor, had confirmed it. This left no further room for doubt!

However, Su Yi shook his head. “I just came here to do a little housecleaning. There’s no need for anyone else to interfere, and that goes for you too, you old-timer. Just stand aside and watch.”

The Skythorn Poison Emperor sighed as if he found this quite a pity. “Very well! Then I’ll just help guard the perimeter. It’s a pity that our friends have long since left the Wilds. Otherwise, Martial Heaven Peak would be lively indeed.”

Su Yi felt a complicated mixture of emotions. The “old friends” the Skythorn Poison Emperor referred to—like the Ghost Emperor of the Western Seas and the Peerless Martial Emperor—were his old friends too.

A long, long time ago, their old friends left the Wilds to seek out greater heights in the stars beyond.

A moment later, Su Yi was a bit stunned. He’d just spotted Yue Shichan in the crowd.

She wore clothes whiter than snow, and she carried an ancient sword on her back. She looked even more impressive than before!

When she sensed Su Yi’s gaze, Yue Shichan’s delicate frame stiffened, and her heart churned with emotion. Countless words rose to her lips, but she didn’t know what to say.

She was even a bit uneasy. She feared that Su Yi was no longer the person she’d once known.

After all, he was the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force! A legendary figure, someone even Ancestor Peng of the Nine Extremes Profound Capital had to treat with respect!

But it was then that Yue Shichan realized that Su Yi was smiling at her. “Miss Shichan, you haven’t taken that girl Yan Suni as your master, have you?”

All eyes were instantly upon Yue Shichan.

Even Su Yi’s apprentices couldn’t help but look curious.

They naturally knew who Yan Suni was, but none of them knew who “Miss Shichan” was or how she knew their master.

All that attention left Yue Shichan a bit uncomfortable and flustered. She whispered, “I... I haven’t.”

“Good. I said I’d serve as your guide to the Dao of the Sword, and I naturally wasn’t kidding,” Su Yi said casually. “Once I’ve resolved these past enmities, if you’re willing, you can come to the Grotto of Abstruse Force to cultivate.”

This declaration provoked widespread uproar. Countless people were astonished, even envious!

Who is that young woman?

She’s actually gotten herself in the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force’s good graces?

But Yue Shichan’s heart shook as she finally realized that Su Yi hadn’t changed a bit. It was only his status that had undergone an earth-shaking transformation!

The man himself was the same, and the way he treated her hadn’t changed!
