Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens – Ch. 1018

Walk-in

Mu Yu spun out of the way at high speed to save his own life. “Can’t say, ‘Welcome back’ if it’s you. I suspected your ugly face was still alive.”

“You again, you lowly human. You’re dead now that you’ve decided to project your insolence around here,” Chi Yue responded from the altar after emerging from Walk-in Heart Switch.

Chi Yue, now an Ascension Realm monster thanks to Ghost Gate’s efforts after the sun burnt it, jumped up at Mu Yu. Mu Yu stopped Chi Yue’s advance with a green formation he slashed out whilst slashing Chi Yue’s left arm.

“Aren’t you a Spirit Severing Realm ant?!” Chi Yue snapped as it retreated.

“Everyone must be incapable of growing except you, huh?” Mu Yu chased Chi Yue down to lop off an arm, demonstrating his cultivation survived the latter’s.

Chi Yue fetched its severed arm from the altar. It shone Walk-in Heart Switch’s red beam to reattach its arm. “I may have to fear you somewhat outside, but you’re no match for me with Walk-in Heart Switch here. You stepped into your grave yourself!”

Mu Yu felt his soul struggling to break out, while he saw illusions.

“Hahaha, everyone is a slave before Walk-in Heart Switch, lowly human!” Clutching Walk-in Heart Formation, Chi Yue went over to finish the job.

Mu Yu triggered Primordial Yin Yang in his head, deleting the illusions and preventing more from invading – to his surprise. He reacted just in time, clanging Shadow Splitter Sword against Walk-in Heart Switch with enough force to fend off the altar, generating waves on the formation.

“Impossible!”

Mu Yu evaded the subsequent red beam Chi Yue fired from Walk-in Heart Switch, though a corner of his shirt did not make it. More importantly, the beam converted the cloth it shaved off into a living entity, controlling it to attack him.

“The hell?” Mu Yu cursed, taking advantage of the cloth’s pause to expand its soul to slice it and make his way back. Unfortunately, he failed to permanently kill it.

Mu Yu then teleported away from Chi Yue’s swing, resulting in the red beam blasting the altar that was still airborne. Like the material from his shirt, the altar obtained life.

“Everything I catch with Walk-in Heart Switch will be at my beck and call.” Chi Yue hurled the altar at Mu Yu.

“How is the altar not broken?”

Boom!

Mu Yu cast Contiguous Horizon Formation, only for Chi Yue to reverse it on Mu Yu with Walk-in Heart Switch.

“Hahaha, didn’t think you’d have your own formation reversed on you, did you?”

“I’m fighting my clothing and formation now?” Mu Yu tried to run with Heavenly Star Formation, yet Contiguous Horizon Formation seemingly knew everything about Heavenly Star Formation, consequently working around it to keep Mu Yu confined inside. “Ah, crap.”

Mu Yu launched green qi off the edge of Shadow Splitter Sword. Chi Yue shielded with Walk-in Heart Formation, turning the green qi red and reversing its trajectory. Since it came from himself, Mu Yu had no alternative but to thwart his own attack head on.

Lucky my sword is still on my side. Walk-in Heart Switch must have a weakness, or whoever gets their hands on it would rule the world.

Once the objects besieged him again, Mu Yu noticed the cloth fragment wither away on its way over.

Its weakness is the time limit it has over things, Mu Yu noted, immediately advancing.

Mu Yu did not whip out qi, lest it turn against him. He got a taste of how his opponents felt when Contiguous Horizon Formation stuffed his stab. He avoided the altar and qi, switching to Wood Spirit to barricade himself inside it. Upon impact, the qi and Contiguous Horizon Formation evaporated.

“You think you’ve figured out Walk-in Heart Switch? You haven’t seen anything.” Chi Yue fired multiple beams, converting the gravity water, chains and floating rocks red. The water gained the form of a red-chain-wielding ten-metres-tall monster. “By the way, anything that’s absorbed Walk-in Heart Switch’s energy won’t be easy to destroy.”
