732 A Sea of Change In The Supremes’ Residence! (1/2)
”Bai Yi, are these all your friends?” asked the mysterious man.
”Yes, master.”
The mysterious man was but Bai Yixue's master, Xiao Shaoqing. Bai Yixue had previously applied leave from Yun Yang to rush back and ask his master over. Swiftly making his way over, it was a coincidence to meet the ten Yama Kings here. In a way, it could be said that he had managed to catch up to the end of this martial world ruckus, the closing of the battle.
”Mm. It's a pity that the treasure map is in the hands of the Concourse of the Underworld's now.” Xiao Shaoqing shook his head.
Evidently, Bai Yixue's master regarded the Concourse of the Underworld highly and was also self-aware. He did not act rashly despite being the first one to be of threat to Mu Shixiong and the one to exert the most effort in this battle.
”Master, the treasure map and everything else aren't important at all. What's important is that grandmaster is still waiting for you.” Bai Yixue commented and thought aloud, 'It's practically the same thing, whether it was the concourse's ten kings or me who took the treasure map.'
In spite of this, he could not speak of it openly before gaining his young master's permission – even when the other party was his master…
”Never mind. Let's go. When your grandmaster forgives me… it will be another rock off my heart. It's indeed more important than the treasure map.”
”Master is wise.”
”Mm. I've heard you say that, who was it… Young Master Yun has God of Wine Feng Xiange's wine?”
”Master, you haven't touched even a drop of wine in so many years. Why…”
”Sigh, what do you children know? Your master hasn't drunk a drop of wine all these years mainly because your grandmaster hasn't forgiven your master. If your grandmaster forgives your master, I can naturally taste the exquisite brew again, stopping only when I'm drunk…”
”How can this be?”
”Why not? After receiving your grandmaster's pardon, I must drink until inebriation. With the rest of my life, I must refill the decades of drought. Only then can my life be considered fulfilled…”
”Cough, cough, cough…”
…
In Tiantang City, the bizarre but incredibly radiant situation continued to persist. As far as the eye could see, the purple tint in the sky seemed to grow richer.
The current Residence of Nine Supremes had turned into the largest gem between heaven and earth. It was glowing, illuminating the world and many lives thousands of miles away!
The tornado was like a pillar connecting heaven and earth. More precisely, it was a funnel-shaped chimney that continuously delivered endless spiritual Qi and purple Qi into the Residence of Nine Supremes where the gas then disappeared within.
Nonetheless, as time passed, it felt harder for Yun Yang to go on. The suffering he was going through was growing increasingly difficult to manage. Prior to this, he had never thought that such a huge reaction would be triggered by activating all nine cultivation methods of the Nine Supremes.
Right now, he was completely oblivious to everything that was happening outside. He was, instead, only aware of the changes wrought upon his body.
He had watched his muscles slowly expand, and grow several times larger until they cracked, his skin and flesh breaking apart and gradually disintegrate over and over again. Then, the ponderous process of recovery came; his physical being that had repaired itself became stronger, tough as jade, endlessly enduring the intense energy that was flooding into his body…
The cycle repeated, wave after wave, time after time, cycle after cycle…
Yun Yang could feel each strand of his nerves and fibers in the clearest way possible.
At this point in time, even the pinch of plucking a strand of hair would exceed the remembered agony of severing a finger. What was more, his body was being crushed and rebuilt time and again, ceaselessly repeating the motion…
Yun Yang only had a single thought – it felt as if the entire universe was exploding and reforming in his mind.
It was too painful. Wanting to grit his teeth, he recalled with a start that his teeth had already been ground into powder. Since stronger teeth would grow, it didn't matter that they fell into dust; they would still regrow themselves. It was utterly futile and useless…
