A Calculated Ambush, a Forceful Slaying of Xue Wuya!

Northern Sea Forest.

The dark green forest surged and rolled like angry waves.

Why has this place become so Yin Qi?

Yu Tunzhou hovers in mid-air, looking down with a furrowed brow.

Winter has arrived, but the Northern Sea Forest remains lush and green. Why, then, is it this color?

From his perspective, the entire forest appeared dark green, shrouded in a thin layer of black mist.

"Dao Lord, this is the aura of the Nine Netherworlds!"

As if sensing something, the Youyin Rogue Person emerged from Han Wuj iu's Niwan Palace, his expression filled with fear, and exclaimed, "This place has been corrupted by the Nine Netherworlds!"

Han Wuj iu was already used to this fellow occasionally popping out of his Niwan Palace), and upon hearing this, he instinctively denied it. "Impossible! How could the Nine Netherworlds possibly invade the Central Plains? The isolation between the Three Realms is the most thorough!"

As far as Han Wuj iu knew, the Three Realms were divided into the Immortal Realm, the Mortal Realm, and the Nine Netherworlds.

The Heaven Beyond Heaven he came from is located between the Three Realms.

The separation between the Three Realms was most complete after the Human Emperor. For example, if Mortal Realm wanted to go to the Immortal Realm, that is, the Heavenly Court, the only way was through the Ascension Platform.

And the Nine Netherworlds ----

The Underworld, which was built by the Heavenly Court long ago, was placed at the very bottom. Not to mention the Mortal Realm, even going from the Underworld to the Nine Netherworlds was extremely difficult.

The Youyin Rogue Person sneered, "This immortal comes from the Underworld. How could I possibly mistake the aura of the Nine Netherworlds?"

Han Wuj iu said with a grim expression, "True Lord, this time we're in trouble."

As a visitor from outer space, he was well aware of the terror of the Nine Netherworlds.

The most feared thing for all the realms and grotto-heavens of the Heaven Beyond Heaven is being invaded by the Nine Netherworlds.

If it were the land left behind by the Daoist and Buddhist sects in the past, that would be fine.

The rest, even those in celestial realms ruled by Immortal Heaven Immortals and Gods, or blessed lands with Immortals and Gods in charge, once targeted by the demons of the Nine Netherworlds, are simply destined to die sooner or later.

Once the erosion of the Nine Netherworlds begins, it will not stop, and even Immortals and Gods will find it difficult to prevent.

Upon hearing the words "Nine Netherworlds, "Yu Tunzhou fixed his gaze on the direction of the Human Emperor Grotto-Heaven.

This celestial paradise has now been pulled down from the depths of the Void back to the Mortal Realm.

As expected, it was probably An Ruyu's doing.

Could the aura of the Nine Netherworlds shrouding the forest be emanating from the grotto-heaven?

Although they found the cave heaven corrupted by the Nine Netherworlds on their first visit, the Human Emperor later changed the future from the past, so the cave heaven should have been completely restored.

"Could it be that in the past few years, some evil god from the Nine Netherworlds has once again invaded this grotto-heaven?"

He inquired about Huntian within the Primordial Spirit Heaven and Earth.

"Possibly!" Huntian said solemnly, "Although there are contingency plans left by the Human Emperor, they are ultimately no match for the passage of time and may not be able to stop the powerful figures of the Nine Netherworlds."

Yu Tunzhou looked grave; this trip had suddenly become unpredictable.

He couldn't help but recall the Nine Netherworlds Devil Lord he had encountered in the Eastern Wilderness.

That person originally wanted to open a passage in the Eastern Wilderness, but unfortunately, he ultimately thwarted it.

Could this invading evil god of the Nine Netherworlds be this very same fiend?

"Let's go," Yu Tunzhou said in a deep voice. "If I'm not mistaken, the aura of the Nine Netherworlds here all originated from the Human Emperor Grotto-Heaven."

Upon hearing this, Han Wuj iu hurriedly said, "True Lord, if it is merely a grotto-heaven, then we must act swiftly and decisively, banishing this grotto-heaven!"

Seeing Yu Tunzhou looking over, Han Wuj iu quickly recounted the horrors of the Nine Netherworlds's erosion. He had personally witnessed a blessed land with Immortals and Gods guarding it being completely destroyed in less than a month under the erosion of the Nine Netherworlds.

That Immortals and Gods, having failed to evacuate in time, had become tainted with too much of the aura of the Nine Netherworlds and was thus anchored by the evil god of the Nine Netherworlds, yet had not made a move.

After this Immortals and Gods escaped to another grotto-heaven, the powerful beings of the Nine Netherworlds followed the clues and quietly located the other grotto-heavens.

This was not the end. It wasn't until many blessed lands and grotto-heavens were destroyed because of this Immortals and Gods that a thorough investigation was conducted, and it was discovered that the body of this person bore the mark of the Nine Netherworlds.

Finally, to escape pursuit from all sides, this Immortals and Gods chose to fall into the Nine Netherworlds—

"With the suppression of heaven and earth in the Central Plains, there is no need to worry about the entire Central Plains being eroded and destroyed by the Nine Netherworlds."

"But once those evil gods establish themselves in the Central Plains, demons and monsters will swarm out, spreading slaughter, destruction, and depravity to every corner of the Central Plains."

"The Central Plains will not be destroyed at that time, but the Human Race the Central Plains will be in grave danger, and the Northern Plains will be the first to suffer!"

Han Wuj iu said solemnly.

Yu Tunzhou's expression turned solemn, realizing the urgency of the matter.

He has just conquered the Northern Plains and is in the prime of his career. How can he allow the Nine Netherworlds to erode the Northern Plains!

Could it be that An Ruyu also sensed this, which is why she chose this location?

"Walk!"

Yu Tunzhou spoke again, his tone imposing.

Han Wuj iu silent and followed Yu Tunzhou to the entrance of the cave.

Standing before the entrance, Yu Tunzhou felt a chill in his heart, sensing the dense aura of the Nine Netherworlds emanating from it.

The aura of the Nine Netherworlds in this place did indeed originate from the cave within!

In just a few years, the cave heaven restored by the Human Emperor was once again eroded by the Nine Netherworlds Yu Tunzhou became suspicious. The Human Emperor stood in the past and saw the future, and rearranged his plans. Even if he could not withstand the passage of time, it should not have been breached so quickly, right?

Is the Nine Netherworlds Evil God too powerful?

"True Lord, please allow me to first investigate the situation within this cave."

Han Wuj iu spoke first, explaining that he had Secret Method to ascertain the situation within a radius of several miles of the cave entrance, thus preventing him from being ambushed as soon as he entered.

Just as Yu Tunzhou nodded, Huntian suddenly spoke up.

"Fellow Daoist, I've thought of another possibility."

Huntian's voice was serious and deep, "Do you remember what was mentioned not long ago about 'replacing the Human Emperor '?"

Yu Tunzhou's expression changed slightly. "What does this have to do with anything?"

"Yes!" Huntian said solemnly, "Merits can be replaced, and naturally they can be destroyed! If the High Antiquity Central Plains Human Race were to perish, most of the Human Emperor's achievements would be lost, his existence would be greatly affected, and his strength might even decline as a result."

"This is the clash of existence and annihilation above the Dao Lord level."

"The contingency plan left by the Human Emperor has been broken through in just a few years. It may not necessarily be due to the Nine Netherworlds Evil God, but it's also possible that the Human Emperor who acted in the past was affected!"

Yu Tunzhou was shaken. Had the past Human Emperor been affected, thus impacting the contingency plans he left for future generations?

Has someone made a move against the Human Emperor?

"Fellow Daoist should have already discovered that the past can be changed, and one can even stand in the past and slightly alter the future."

"The ancient Human Emperor once stood in the High Antiquity, defying the Long River of Time, and in the Primordial Age, he annihilated my true form with a single arrow."

Huntian's tone was unusually somber.

"The only ones who can stop them are those of equal caliber."

Yu Tunzhou asked doubtfully, "If the past and future can be altered at will, how could the Master and others not have seen the collapse of the Heavenly Court and the successive disappearances of the Three Pure Ones?"

Huntian replied, "Because the past can be changed, but the future cannot be observed. Once it is specifically observed, then the future becomes constant."

"The final step for Dao Lord is to sever the future, allowing it to become infinitely variable and unrestrained, enabling them to choose the path they desire from among the many possibilities."

Therefore, the struggles Mortal Realm mostly take place in the past, using the past to change the present, and using the present to determine the future.

Yu Tunzhou was deeply shocked.

Although he was already capable of contending with Immortals and Gods, he was still worlds apart from that level.

He still had doubts about Huntian's words. If one did not observe the future, how could one know that the future needed to be changed, and how to change it?

He shook his head to himself, but didn't ask any more questions.

To involve the level of sages is truly inconceivable.

In fact, he always felt that the fact that the Human Emperor could stand in the past and change the future was inconceivable enough.

"True Lord, I have investigated. This grotto-heaven has indeed been severely corrupted by the Nine Netherworlds. There should be no ambush within a ten-mile radius of the entrance."

Han Wuj iu turned around and reported.

Yu Tunzhou nodded, and without further hesitation, stepped inside, with Han Wuj iu following closely behind.

Although he had expected it, Yu Tunzhou still felt a chill in his heart when he actually saw the cave.

The erosion here is several times more severe than when I first arrived a few years ago!

Just ahead of them was a pit, from which blood-yellow groundwater was gushing up.

"This is the water of the Yellow Springs— "

The Youyin Rogue Person the Underworld recognized the source of the blood-yellow blood at a glance.

"Even the waters of the Yellow Springs are gushing out; the erosion here is nearing its final stage," Han Wuj iu said in a low voice.

The Yu Tunzhou, surveying the world before it.

Upon entering this space, he felt a sense of estrangement that was both familiar and strange.

The reason I'm familiar with him is because he refined the central core of the cave, making him practically a half-master of the cave.

The unfamiliarity stems from the erosion of the Nine Netherworlds, which has altered the laws and rules of this world. All Nine Netherworlds Divine Ability not originating from the Nine Netherworlds will have diminished in power here.

If I remember correctly, the Blood River True Scripture that Xue Wuya cultivates originates from the Endless Blood Sea in the Nine Netherworlds.

This place feels more like his home turf.

Fortunately, he had already established the prototype of his Dharma Domain, so in his eyes, there was no longer any question of home or home ground.

Below myself, all beings are equal.

Yu Tunzhou closed his eyes and used the refined central hub of the cave to sense the entire cave.

The cave was severely eroded by the Nine Netherworlds, making it difficult for him to influence the entire cave through his central control, but he had no problem sensing the living beings within it.

A moment later, Yu Tunzhou opened his eyes and locked onto the location of the Human Emperor's Temporary Palace.

He saw several Nine Netherworlds Rifts deep within the palace, and a blood-red figure coiled beside one of them, drawing energy from it.

interest.

"The rift to the Nine Netherworlds is over there."

"Xue Wuya is here too. It seems the corruption of the Nine Netherworlds is also related to this guy."

Yu Tunzhou's eyes flashed coldly. "I will make the first move. The two of you will wait for your chance and make your move. Make sure you don't give Xue Wuya a chance to escape."

Han Wuj iu said, "True Lord, the Blood River Dao also has a lineage and tradition outside the heavens. When this lineage reaches the level of immortals Immortals and Gods, they can borrow the power of the Blood Sea. As long as the Blood Sea Indestructible, they themselves are Indestructible. I have a sealing technique that should be able to work on him."

It's alright.

Yu Tunzhou's aura grew stronger, and he directly refused, his gaze fixed across the Void as if he had already locked onto Xue Wuya's location, his expression as sharp as a blade. "My Dharma Domain is newly formed, and I'm about to use him as a test subject!"

Deep within the cave.

The majestic palace stands atop the highest point where dark clouds and thunder intertwine.

In the highest hall, Xue Wuya stood pale-faced beside a Nine Netherworlds Rift, tilting his head slightly and letting out a satisfied sigh.

Deep within the fissure, turbid yellow blood surged and boiled, attempting to seep into the space.

At the same time, wisps of the Nine Netherworlds Origin Qi also escaped from the cracks. This was meant to assimilate the entire cave heaven, but Xue Wuya swallowed most of it.

Right at the foot of Xue Wuya, a blood-red array had spread throughout the entire hall, using his blood as the array base and connecting to the Nine Netherworlds Rift.

"Not enough----"

Xue Wuya raised his hand, and the bloodstains on his palm cracked open. Drops of Essence Blood, generated by Secret Method, fell into the great formation beneath his feet, stirring up faint ripples.

As the ripples spread, the crack trembled slightly, seemingly widening outwards by a fraction.

Beside her, An Ruyu, looking exhausted, smiled helplessly and said, "It seems the Dao Master has forgotten about Yu Tunzhou, whom we still have to deal with."

"A mere child; if he dares to come, I could kill him with the ease of turning my hand."

Xue Wuya smiled contemptuously, a hint of smugness in his expression. "Give me a few more days, and this rift will widen twice as much, completely eroding this grotto-heaven and transforming it into the Nine Netherworlds!"

"At that time, let alone Yu Tunzhou, even if Yan Huifeng, I am confident that I will make him suffer a crushing defeat!"

Thinking of that Supreme Sword Lord, Xue Wuya's smile gradually turned cold and stern.

As long as the sea of blood Indestructible, he will never die.

In the past, Yan Huifeng, relying on his high cultivation level and powerful immortal sword, still couldn't kill me. Now, with the Nine Netherworlds' blessing, he might not be able to contend with me.

What does it matter if it's orthodox Daoist School?

Their Blood River Dao is also a top-tier lineage within the Nine Netherworlds!

Once they direct the Nine Netherworlds Netherworld's erosion outwards, the entire Northern Plains will become the Blood River Dao's domain. At that time, let alone Yan Huifeng, who among the Dharma Aspect of the world could do anything to him?

"You've done a great job this time. Not only did you find the passage to the Nine Netherworlds for the Blood River Dao, but you also set up this magic array for me."

Xue Wuya looked at An Ruyu and smiled faintly.

"When you meet the Holy Mother of Blood Spirits and the other deities in the future, I will take credit for you."

The great formation beneath his feet was built by An Ruyu. It not only strengthened the stability of the Nine Netherworlds Rift by using him as the central point, but also allowed him to receive the infusion of the Nine Netherworlds Origin Qi.

In just one day, he felt that his cultivation had caught up with several months of his previous practice!

An Ruyu shook her head and said, "Dao Master, I do not recommend that you be so reckless. If you want to widen this rift by two times, you must not leave the center of the formation for at least seven days. Otherwise, not only will all your previous efforts be in vain, but you will also suffer the backlash from the Nine Netherworlds and fall into it."

Xue Wuya gave the woman a deep look and said with a faint smile, "You are quite frank. Only now do I believe you a little more, young lady."

He stood with his hands behind his back and sneered, "Now that things have come to this, there's no need to hide it from you. I have some knowledge of formations, and I have secretly altered the great formation you set up. In the blink of an eye, it can be transformed into my Blood River Dao's Blood River Killing Formation."

"Even if you secretly colluded with Yu Tunzhou this time, attempting to use Jiang Wenxuan to harm me, there is absolutely no chance."

Upon hearing this, An Ruyu patted her chest with relief, bit her lip lightly, and chuckled softly, "The Dao Master said before that he knew nothing about formations, but it turns out he was just deceiving me."

"The Dao Lord is indeed cautious. Fortunately, I only wish to sever all ties with the world and have no intention of harming the Dao Lord."

Xue Wuya said indifferently, "You saved your own life."

After saying that, Xue Wuya closed his eyes and began to fully circulate the Blood River True Scripture, using his own Essence Blood as a guide to accelerate the widening of the rift.

Inside the main hall, only the gushing sound of the Yellow Springs ' waters could be heard.

An Ruyu stood to the side, her eyes lowered, remaining silent for a long time, seemingly intimidated by the reprimand she had just received.

Xue Wuya withdrew his gaze from his hidden observation, quite satisfied.

Although this woman is somewhat cunning, she is ultimately just a junior, and a few words of reprimand are enough to deter her.

What she actually thinks is not important.

Now that things have come to this, relying on the Blood River True Scripture, no one here can stop him!

He calmed himself and continued to guide the crack to widen.

Time ticked by, second by second.

Xue Wuya's brows suddenly twitched.

He noticed that the blood shadows he had placed beneath the palace were disappearing at an alarming speed!

"Um?"

Xue Wuya opened his eyes, turned around, and sneered, "He really came here to die."

"Very well, I will lend you a hand and completely sever your ties to this world."

He opened his palm, and a drop of his Essence Blood fell into the blood array, instantly transforming into an avatar identical to him in appearance and form.

[Blood River Incarnation]

After being imbued with the aura of the Nine Netherworlds, this avatar actually reached the level of Grandmaster.

The Essence Blood transformed into a crimson streak of light and rushed out of the hall, leaving a trail of blood in the air as it sped away.

"Let me see just how good this kid is now."

Xue Wuya possessed an imposing aura, exuding the confidence and invincible demeanor of Martial Dao Dharma Aspect, like someone perched atop a mountain peak, overlooking all those climbing the mountain.

The next moment.

Xue Wuya's expression froze, as if he were standing there in a daze.

The avatar that was connected to his mind rushed out of the palace gate in just a few breaths, and he hadn't even seen who it was before he lost contact with the avatar.

He couldn't help but show surprise and doubt.

Just when he thought it was really Jiang Wenxuan who had arrived, a man in a green robe stepped into the hall. His Fist Intent was brilliant, like the sun in the sky or a pillar of heaven collapsing, carrying an overwhelming force that pressed down on Xue Wuya!

Even though the person before him was at the pinnacle of Martial Dao, a master of Dharma Aspect, he did not hesitate for even a moment!

Xue Wuya's gaze swept over the crowd, and he immediately confirmed that the only person who had come was this young man. He instantly flew into a rage, revealing a chilling ferocity.

He never expected that Yu Tunzhou, alone, would be so foolish!

"Ignorant child!"

He laughed sharply, his body radiating a surge of Blood Qi. "Since you're so eager to die, I'll grant your wish!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he flipped his hand and struck out with a palm strike, unleashing the all-consuming power of the Blood Sea that filled the entire hall and swept towards Yu Tunzhou.

Yu Tunzhou remained unmoved. Behind him, two avatars simultaneously revealed a figure dressed in a Taiji robe, exuding the Dao Venerable and nobility of Daoism, with Qi of Dao and Virtue emanating from his body.

A figure with indifferent features appeared, yet his mere presence stirred the Nine Netherworlds aura of the Nine Netherworlds, as if he were the true son of the Nine Netherworlds and the embodiment of the Final Tribulation!

In an instant, Yu Tunzhou's aura surged, and together with his two avatars, they broke through Xue Wuya's sea of blood erosion!

Xue Wuya's pupils constricted sharply, and his expression changed drastically for the first time. "One Qi Transforms into the Three Pure Ones?!"

This child, having only reached the External Scenery, has already cultivated this supreme divine Divine Ability of the Daode Lineage?!

Just as Xue Wuya was about to make another move, a dazzling silver pendant caught his eye and entered his pupils.

Having conducted his investigation beforehand, Xue Wuya finally understood how this young man had suppressed the Northern Plains Xie Household!

With an unparalleled supernatural Divine Ability and one of the most precious treasures of the Daode Lineage, this child indeed possesses the ability to rival a Dharma Aspect -form!

He instantly abandoned any attempt to confront the attack head-on, leaving only retreat and the option of sacrificing himself to defuse the situation.

In an instant, unwilling to give up the central point of the magic array, and even more unwilling to turn the magic array into a killing array just because of Yu Tunzhou alone, Xue Wuya prepared to rely on his Blood Sea Indestructible Body to withstand this attack head-on.

Even the immortal sword that Yan Huifeng swung with all his might couldn't sever his Blood Sea Indestructible Body!

The sound of a thick Blood River churning and splashing echoed from the Void, and a phantom of a sea of blood appeared behind Xue Wuya.

He coldly stared at the Yu Tunzhou that had already approached within three zhang of him.

He had to admit that this young man had powerful backing, and in terms of both foundation and strength, he was unparalleled in the world at the present level!

Unfortunately, the next moment...

Yu Tunzhou stepped within three zhang of Xue Wuya, the nascent Dharma Domain unfolded with a roar.

Within a three-zhang radius of Xue Wuya, before he could even change color, everything fell silent.

The illusory sea of blood vanished abruptly, as if forcibly extinguished by an invisible hand.

Even the aura of the Nine Netherworlds surrounding Xue Wuya vanished without a trace, like a mud ox sinking into the sea.

Fear surged faster than shock and anger in Xue Wuya's heart.

Because he truly smelled the scent of death.

"You----"

He wanted to speak, wanted to activate the killing formation beneath his feet.

But the figure that suddenly attacked gave him no chance.

After forcibly severing all connections between Xue Wuya and the outside world, Yu Tunzhou, carrying the power of the two Dao bodies of the One Qi Transforms into the Three Pure Ones, unleashed his full force!

The powerful Fist Intent collapsed like a pillar of heaven.

Even more Vajra Bracelet, which arrives late but arrives early.

This was a calculated yet unexpected attack, and by some coincidence, it happened exactly as An Ruyu had planned!

Click.

Xue Wuya's immortal body suffered two severe blows in an instant, his Immortal Physique was directly shattered, and his eyes were filled with fear and unprecedented shock and anger.

Fortunately, the punch sent him flying three zhang away, and he could feel the presence of the sea of blood again.

He frantically circulated the Blood River True Scripture to rebuild his Immortal Physique, and the shattered Immortal Physique healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Just give him a breath more, but before he could rejoice, that suffocating shadow descended upon him once more.

The three-zhang (approximately 6.6 meters Dharma Domain followed him like a shadow.

The illusory sea of blood was forcibly extinguished for the second time.

"Fish— Tunzhou!!!"

Xue Wuya's roar echoed in the hall, twisted and shrill, as if it came from the depths of the Nine Netherworlds.

But this did not deter the second, relentless punch that followed!

A punch landed.

Xue Wuya's face froze for a moment.

Fear, anger, resentment, disbelief----

All sorts of emotions are frozen in this moment.

Bang!

Blood mist filled the sky, and shattered bones flew everywhere.

Xue Wuya's head exploded under this punch!

Only then did Yu Tunzhou, who had executed the move flawlessly, catch his breath and roared, "Youyin!"

Though the physical body perishes, the Primordial Spirit remains!

He couldn't believe that a Dharma Aspect known for his immortality could be killed so easily!
