Chapter 1363 - The Legacy of The Extraterrestrial Demon

Chapter 1363 The Legacy of The Extraterrestrial Demon

Smacking his lips, Ye Zui closed his eyes and savored the taste. “There’s indeed the taste of the legendary Divine Dragon… but… you’ve already digested all of it, so it isn’t useful anymore… What a shame!”

And he smacked his lips again.

Judging from his reaction, if there had still been any Divine Dragon power left in Chu Yang, he totally wouldn’t have minded eating and swallowing Chu Yang alive.

Chu Yang felt his hair stand on end. This fellow was really capable of eating humans! He hastily retrieved some medicine and applied it on the bite wound as he cursed the Sword Spirit infinitely in his heart.

There was a look of innocence all over the Sword Spirit’s face. “How would he believe your words if he didn’t take a bite and tasted it for himself?”

A furious Chu Yang replied, “But where did that Divine Dragon taste on me come from?”

The Sword Spirit was speechless. “You have Ao Xieyun’s benefaction on you.”

Chu Yang was dumbfounded.

Ye Zui was so jealous that his eyes were already crimson. “Why didn’t something that awesome happen to me? Isn’t it a simple task to be pursued by someone? I can just go around each of the Super Clans and kill a few important people. Wouldn’t that be a cause of endless pursuit? Sigh…”

Chu Yang let out a wry laugh. “This is just pure luck.”

“This is practically sheer dumb luck the level of going against the heavens!” Ye Zui replied furiously.

Judging from his reaction, he still took very much to heart the fact that such luck didn’t fall on him.

“To be honest, I should really be thankful that this lucky encounter had changed me. If not for this incident, I would have been just a useless loser…” Chu Yang continued acting according to the Sword Spirit’s script, putting deep emotion in both his voice and expression. “As if you would know that before that had happened, I was totally stuck at the level of a Martial Arts Great Master. Everyone said that even till the end of my life, I would only be a Martial Arts Great Master…”

True to his expectations, when Ye Zui heard what he said, his eyes suddenly lit up and he eyed Chu Yang up and down closely. Then, a smile appeared on his face and he started laughing weirdly. “So you were once a useless loser too…”

“Yes, yes… Could it be that you were once like that too?” Chu Yang followed his lead.

Ye Zui’s countenance turned dark and sinister.

A malicious glint flashed in his eyes as he replied slowly, “That is my humiliation which I can never forget… my entire life…”

Chu Yang heaved a heavy sigh. “Everyone has their own sad past… Sigh.”

This sigh of his triggered an even stronger sense of commiseration from Ye Zui. Right at this moment, that grey-robed man on the mountain summit heaved a heavy sigh as well. There was curiosity in his eyes, as if he was also tremendously interested in what had happened to Ye Zui. With a flourish of his arm, a mild wave of mental consciousness drifted down…

“However, I cannot tell you my sad past. It’s nothing but a past which I cannot bear to look back upon. I was once a useless loser too… Haha… But as for how I had become strong, it’s something that I cannot tell you even if I were to die.” Ye Zui’s mouth was clamped tight.

Chu Yang was rather disappointed. He thought to himself covertly, “Looks like I still can’t get him to talk after all…”

In the Nine Tribulations Space, the Sword Spirit also sighed in disappointment.

All of a sudden, Ye Zui heaved another heavy sigh and changed his mind out of the blue. “But… It’s alright for me to say it, since you and I will go our separate ways after today. There’s no harm in telling you.”

Chu Yang was stupefied.

Why did he change his mind?

Just a moment ago, he was still saying, “I can’t tell you even if I were to die.” And the next moment, it became “It’s alright to say it…”

What the f*ck, does this Eldest Young Master Ye have some kind of mental illness? To think he can actually say such contradictory words.

Clenching his jaw, Ye Zui started narrating. “Back then, the moment I was born, I was hailed as a genius whose meridians ran smooth and unobstructed. Since I was young, I have been interested in swordsmanship. I advanced with great momentum, my martial domain level breaking through at an alarming rate. When I was fifteen, I was already a Sword King! I was the one and only one like that in the whole of the Nine Heavens.”

“The clan appointed me as the Eldest Young Master, hoping that I would bring honor to the Ye Clan. I was also full of aspirations.”

“But after I turned fifteen, no matter how I cultivated, I realized that I couldn’t advance any further at all! I had once eaten and drunk nothing for half a month; the only thing I did was practice the sword. When I was tired, I would slash myself with the sword a few times…”

“But there was no effect whatsoever!”

“When I turned eighteen, the clan finally couldn’t stand it anymore. They invited the high priest of the Medicine Valley to take a look at me. It was only then that we found out that a segment of my meridians was born very narrow. Even though it was just a small segment, there was no way to remedy the condition for the rest of my life, meaning that first-grade Sword King was the highest I would ever reach in my entire life! And this condition was incurable!”

“When the clan found out, they deposed me of my position of Eldest Young Master immediately.”

“During that period of time, even though I continued to cultivate desperately day after day, no one paid any more attention to me.” Clenching his jaw, Ye Zui smiled harshly. “The winter when I was twenty-four, everyone in the clan gathered for a banquet but no one actually informed me. I snuck out of the clan and came here!”

Pointing at the ground beneath his feet, he went on. “On New Year’s eve, I entered the Pagoda Mountain all by myself. I walked around aimlessly and even thought of dying once and for all and be done with all these.”

“And then, I don’t know what happened, but I stepped onto a side road. I walked along the path and suddenly entered a fog. Within the fog, I discovered a cave. It was very cold at that time, so I decided to dive into the cave. Moreover, what was undeniable was that that cave seemed to also be summoning me inside…”

“After I entered the cave, I discovered a strange corpse…” Ye Zui tilted his head, a savage expression coming onto his face. He said, “It was a very… very strange corpse. In any case, it wasn’t a human’s corpse. It looked like a monkey’s… Mm, it was killed by a sword. That sword was embedded in its chest.”

“I found this strange. Why was there a corpse in this cave and even a sword embedded in it? Since that person had killed this strange monster, why didn’t he take the sword with him?”

“Right at this point, that sword suddenly started shaking. I heard very clearly someone talking to me. He said, ‘If you pull out this sword, you shall own the world!’”

“At that point, I thought to myself, ‘I’m already a f*cking cripple, what world is there for me to own?’… and so, I didn’t pull out the sword.” Ye Zui heaved a long sigh. “I really regret it now! If I had pulled out that sword then, my achievements may be far beyond what I am now.”

This ending was truly out of Chu Yang’s expectations.

He didn’t pull out the sword?

Based on Ye Zui’s narration, both Chu Yang and the Sword Spirit firmly believed that that sword might be an Extraterrestrial Demon’s weapon which possessed a demonic nature. It was likely that Ye Zui got to where he was today because of this sword.

But they never expected him to not have pulled out the sword!

After sighing for quite a fair bit, Ye Zui went on. “Back then, I was extremely fearful. I couldn’t help but feel that this matter was rather creepy. Then, I realized that there was still half a sword scabbard on the ground. So, I thought to myself, ‘In that case, how about I take this half a sword scabbard first?’”

“And so, I grabbed that scabbard. But the moment I did, I suddenly lost consciousness. That scabbard seemed to have a life and power of its own and it pulled me toward that sword. I wanted to throw it aside, yet I couldn’t. I struggled with all my strength, but unexpectedly, my head slammed onto the wall of the cave and I passed out. But I didn’t notice that that scabbard on the floor had actually gotten up and I fell onto the ground and sat on it…”

When Ye Zui reached this part, Chu Yang couldn’t help but feel the chills.

Think about it — If half a segment of a scabbard was embedded upright on the ground? And he sat on it? If the aim were accurate…

Minister Chu suddenly felt his anus turn rather cold. He couldn’t help but squeeze it tight.

“When I woke up, I was covered in blood, but the scabbard was already nowhere in sight…”

Ye Zui continued to narrate.

There was an even stronger feeling bursting out of Chu Yang.

Of course, it’s gone! It has already, you know…

“I still had a kind of feeling; there was still some kind of power pulling me over to retrieve that sword. I was honestly frightened out of my wits at this point and scrambled out of the cave… I don’t even know how I had descended the mountain and returned home. At home, everyone was still at the banquet, drinking and celebrating… Nobody noticed that I was covered in blood, nor did anyone realize that I had gone out and come back.”

Ye Zui let out a bitter laugh. “Or perhaps they knew, just that they didn’t care.”

“After I got home, it was only a few days later that I discovered that that scabbard didn’t actually disappear. Instead, it had followed the trail of my blood and integrated itself into my body.”

Chu Yang rolled his eyes, thinking to himself, “I bet it definitely didn’t enter by following your blood trail? But instead by… you directly taking that thing in under some kind of astounding chance encounter… Otherwise, how could it possibly have let you off so easily?”

When he heard Ye Zui’s narration up to this point, Chu Yang was suddenly filled with admiration and respect toward the universe.

What kind of amazing coincidence did it take to create an earth-shattering figure such as Ye Zui? Such an encounter was something that absolutely no one would be able to think of… no matter how hard they racked their brains!

“In addition, there was the first half of a set of skill formula on that scabbard, as well as the first half of a set of sword techniques.”

“The other halves were on that sword which I didn’t pick up. But that latter half just had to be the most important and critical part…” When Ye Zui reached this part, he was filled with incredible vexation. “Furthermore, there was an even bigger secret on that sword! That’s the thing that’s even more of a shame!”

“Sigh, the feeling of having half a scabbard in my body is truly…” Ye Zui sighed. “In the beginning, I felt very uneasy. But following that, I discovered that my meridians had suddenly become normal!”

“All of a sudden, I started to advance again! That segment of narrow meridians had also recovered. I then made a guess — Could it be because of this half a scabbard? And so, I thought of trying and practicing the first half of the skill formula on it…”

“Unexpectedly, when I gave it a try, my cultivation suddenly improved by leaps and bounds. My cultivation speed actually reached a speed more than tenfold of what it usually was!”

Ye Zui said solemnly, “This half segment of the skill formula is called… the Great Heavenly Demon Technique!”

When the four words ‘Great Heavenly Demon Technique’ left his mouth, the countenance of the Sword Spirit in the Nine Tribulations Space changed drastically!

In fact, Chu Yang could even feel the Sword Spirit’s terror. He couldn’t help but be alarmed — Could this Great Heavenly Demon Technique… really be that frightening?

“I was naturally overjoyed that the Great Heavenly Demon Technique was effective, so while complementing it with the Great Heavenly Demon Technique, I started to practice that half a set of sword technique — the Demon World-Slaying Sword! It was then that I realized that this was definitely the number one skill technique in the whole of the Nine Heavens! The number one sword technique!”

“Its power reached a point that one can hardly imagine. It was only then that I realized how massive a chance encounter I had missed!”

“However, the Great Heavenly Demon Technique was incomplete and the Demon World-Slaying Sword also contained only six moves from the first half. There should be a total of 18 moves instead. Besides, only by using the complete Great Heavenly Demon Technique to catalyze and bring out the complete Demon World-Slaying Sword can one achieve the highest realm of achievement of slaying the world!”

“It is said that when this skill technique is practiced into a stage of profoundness, the moment the sword makes its move, all living things in this world could be wiped out!”

“How I wish I could annihilate this whole f*cked up world!”

Chills ran down Chu Yang’s spine. He thought to himself, “It’s a good thing you didn’t get the complete version. Otherwise, wouldn’t these Nine Heavens have been wiped out a long time ago?”
