Chapter 526: The Assessment Begins!

~14 min read 2,766 words

Blade Executor!

It is the term used for the personnel within the Blade Execution Court.

Every Blade Executor comes from the Central Immortal Realm, or from the top demons of the Four Great Realms.

The weakest Blade Executors are those existing on the 950,000‑li Great Dao.

Over ninety‑five percent of Blade Executors are beings of the Law Realm.

Even strong ones of the Venerable Realm are not few.

And this is the strength of the Blade Execution Court!

Moreover, the status of Blade Executors is extremely lofty; even within the Central Immortal Realm, ordinary forces must treat a Blade Executor with utmost respect.

At this moment, within the palace, the twelve seated individuals are precisely the twelve Blade Executors stationed in Blade Execution City.

Each exudes a formidable aura, all of them being beings above the Law Realm.

Above the twelve, there is an elder clad in dark‑gold robes, with a golden battle blade slung on his back.

The elder's aura is even more terrifying; one can clearly see the space around him subtly warping.

His presence even at times surpasses that of the twelve Law‑Realm Blade Executors.

Indeed… this one has the cultivation of the Venerable Realm!

The elder looks down and speaks lightly.

"The Blade Execution Tokens have already been distributed, haven't they?"

Below, a man in a golden robe quickly stands and says in a deep voice, "The Blade Execution Tokens were fully distributed seven days ago; by now, they should already be on their way here."

"The assessment can commence tomorrow!"

The elder nods satisfactorily and says, "Among the Four Great Realms there are many demons that even the Central Immortal Realm finds hard to locate; this time the Blade Execution Court is expanding recruitment by a full ten people."

"Do any of you have recommendations?"

The twelve Blade Executors glance at each other; one stands up and says with a smile.

"Leader, I recommend one person: she is the Holy Maiden of the Vermilion Bird Palace, master of the Eight‑Tier Great Dao, and has cultivated the 980,000‑li Great Dao. Once she enters the Blade Execution Court and trains for a short while, she can ascend to the Law Realm and qualify to comprehend the Upper‑grade Law!"

The elder nods, "Eight‑Tier Great Dao, 980,000 li—quite impressive; even in the Central Immortal Realm, such a celestial prodigy is extremely rare."

At this moment another stands and loudly says, "Leader, I also have a recommendation: this person is a disciple of the White Tiger Gate, master of the Mutated Killing Great Dao. Though it is only the Seven‑Tier Extreme Great Dao, this disciple has also cultivated the 980,000‑li Great Dao."

The elder also nods, "Although it is only the Seven‑Tier Extreme, it is still a Mutated Great Dao; when comprehending the Law, there is a certain chance."

"Leader, I also have a recommendation."

Another man in a golden robe stands up, smiling, and says

"The junior sect leader of the Black Tortoise Sect practices the Mortal Body Great Dao, and is also a disciple of the sect master; his Mortal Body Dao has reached 950,000 li!"

The elder's eyes brighten, "Mortal Body Dao at 950,000 li—this one is promising; if he passes the assessment, perhaps he can enter the Blood Battle Hall!"

The elder's smile is very evident; clearly hearing so many good candidates makes him quite pleased.

At this moment another person slowly stands, gives the elder a slight bow, and says.

"Leader, I also have a recommendation here."

Everyone turns to look at this person.

If Gan Tianlei and the other two were here, they would recognize that this person is the one who came from the Azure Dragon Hall to deliver the assessment tokens.

The person says calmly, "Junior Hall Master of the Azure Dragon Hall! Mortal Body Dao at 900,000 li, master of the Eight‑Tier Great Dao—its exact nature unknown—but already cultivated to 990,000 li!"

When that person arrived, Su Yu had not yet cultivated on Blood Prison Peak; they only knew Su Yu's Mortal Body Dao was at 900,000 li, and knew nothing of what followed.

At those words, a flash of brilliance instantly shot from the elder's eyes.

"A dual‑cultivator, yet still so demonic! Even in the Central Immortal Realm, such a talent is rare!"

The elder slaps his own thigh hard and laughs loudly.

"Hahaha, it seems there are many good candidates this time!"

The elder smiles broadly.

If he can send some good candidates into the Central Immortal Realm, he will also receive many rewards.

How could he not be happy?

The twelve below also break into smiles.

"Since that's the case, the assessment will be set for tomorrow!"

The elder waves his hand grandly, fixing the assessment date.

The next day.

Su Yu slowly awakens from his meditation, breathing in large gulps of air.

His whole body is drenched in sweat, his head soaked.

Even his body has become noticeably slimmer overnight.

However, Su Yu's eyes are exceptionally bright.

Su Yu slowly spreads his hands, and a wisp of blade qi gradually forms within his palms.

This slender blade qi is extremely scarce, yet from it emanates faint, profound ripples.

It carries an unstoppable drive.

As if everything will shatter beneath a single slash.

It bears about seventy percent similarity to the slash the middle‑aged man previously wielded in Su Yu's mind.

Su Yu looks at the blade qi in his hand, his gaze bright.

"Is this the realm described by Master Yan? Though I've only just entered, there is no substantial gain yet."

"But if I continue, once I successfully fuse the realm into the blade qi, my combat power will double!"

Su Yu feels a slight excitement, never expecting that just glancing at the three characters above the city gate would...

I have gained such a harvest.

Su Yu stood up and freshened up.

Afterwards, he left feeling refreshed and clear-minded.

In the hall, he met up with Yan Ke and the others.

Everyone looked at Su Yu, a little surprised.

Yan Ke's eyes lit up: "Su Yu, have you made another breakthrough?"

Su Yu shook his head slightly, chuckling: "No, I just had a slight insight from the three characters left by the Holy One yesterday; it's not a breakthrough."

Now it was Yan Ke's turn to be astonished; he stared at Su Yu in disbelief, speaking somewhat stiffly: "You mean... you grasped the intention left by the Holy One?"

Su Yu's brow twitched slightly, and a thread of sword qi, following his will, hovered between heaven and earth.

"If this is what you call intention, then it should be just that."

Yan Ke firmly resisted the sword qi floating in midair, clearly feeling that within that thread of sword qi, a hint of overbearing flavor had been added.

Although extremely slight, that flavor was already present.

Hiss!

Yan Ke sucked in a breath of cold air, firmly holding back the sword qi.

"Unbelievable! Simply unbelievable!"

Yan Ke couldn't help shaking his head, saying in shock.

Gan Tianlei and the two others exchanged glances, all showing wry smiles.

Good fellows, those three noticed nothing, but Su Yu merely glanced and gained such insight.

Comparing people to people, it's enough to make one die of anger!

Although shocked in heart, Yan Ke still restrained himself, leading Su Yu and the four others toward the Executioner's Hall's pavilion.

At this moment, in the center of Executioner's City.

Around the ninety-nine-story pavilion, countless strong beings gathered, all gazing at the ninety-nine-story pavilion, their eyes filled with excitement.

"I never expected to witness an Executioner's Hall examination in my lifetime; even if I died, I'd have no regrets!"

"Yes, the Executioner's Hall examination has no fixed schedule; to encounter it now is extremely fortunate!"

Many strong ones spoke up like that.

"Hey, you say, who will be able to enter the Executioner's Hall this time?"

"No need to say; it must be the people of the four great powers, after all their disciples have terrifying talent."

"Not necessarily; some other powers also have heaven-chosen ones who received the Executioner's Hall examination token; their talent may not be weaker than those of the four great powers' heaven-chosen ones."

"Hehe, just watch the show; it's a good chance to see the heaven-chosen ones of our four great regions!"

Countless strong ones gathered around the pavilion, constantly whispering.

The Executioner's Hall pavilion is not accessible to just anyone; only those recognized by the Executioner's Hall or its members may enter.

Anyone else who approaches will be killed on sight!

Once, a venerable one disregarded the rules, wanting to enter the Executioner's Hall pavilion to investigate, but was instantly slain by a single strike from the entity above the pavilion.

Since then, no one dares to provoke the Executioner's Hall's prestige.

After all, powers that have taken root in the Central Immortal Domain are not something the four great regions can provoke.

Rattle.

With a sound as if space were being torn, a middle-aged man in white robes, accompanied by five young women, slowly arrived outside the pavilion.

"These are from the White Tiger Sect; the leader is the White Tiger Sect's Vice Sect Master Bai Xiaotian, who has cultivation at the peak of the Law Realm!"

"Hiss, after all it's still the White Tiger Sect's people; five of them have been favored by the Executioner's Hall."

Not long after the White Tiger Sect people appeared, a hearty voice sounded.

"Hahaha, Brother Bai, you came so quickly!"

There, Yan Ke led Su Yu and the others, stepping through the void, walking slowly over.

Bai Xiaotian looked at Yan Ke and smiled slightly: "Brother Yan, long time no see!"

The four great powers are united against a common enemy, after all their sect heads are sworn brothers.

So, the relationship among those below is also fairly good.

"The people of the Azure Dragon Hall have also arrived; it's actually the Azure Dragon Hall's Law Enforcement Hall Master personally leading the team—it seems the Azure Dragon Hall is determined to win this time!"

Su Yu glanced at the White Tiger Sect's position; only a slender youth standing beside Bai Xiaotian caught his slight attention.

But Su Yu soon lost interest.

This person's cultivation is not bad, but compared to Hong Lian, it is somewhat weaker.

"You two fellows, you came pretty quickly."

A gentle voice sounded; seen was an extremely frail-looking middle-aged woman, barefoot, stepping in the void, causing ripples in the void.

Behind her, similarly, followed five people.

Leading them was a dark-skinned youth whose muscles were extremely robust, and he emitted an extremely terrifying vibration.

He is much stronger than Zhang Qing.

Su Yu's brow twitched slightly: "It's another body cultivator!"

Su Yu felt a bit moved; after all, in the myriad races continent, body cultivators are rare to see outside the outer heavens.

Su Yu doesn't even know how many such people he has seen in the outer heavens.

Just within Blood Prison Peak, the number of body cultivators reaches a terrifying several hundred.

Of course, their cultivation levels vary.

"Huimeizi has also come!"

Yan Ke said with a chuckle.

Bai Xiaotian gave a slight nod to the middle-aged woman.

"It's the Grand Elder of the Black Tortoise Sect, Zhang Hui, a peak Law Realm expert!"

Someone said in horror.

"I didn't expect you all to come so promptly — it makes me feel a bit embarrassed!"

From afar, the voice of Old Monster Fire came.

Old Monster Fire led Hong Luan and the others, walking over slowly.

Su Yu did not see the horse-faced young man among them — clearly, he had been struck by his slap.

Even now, the horse-faced young man had not recovered.

Thereby losing this opportunity.

Su Yu did not mind it; if someone insisted on courting death, he couldn't blame anyone else.

As soon as Hong Luan arrived, her gaze fell on Su Yu, her eyes filled with curiosity.

At this time, the gaunt young man leading the White Tiger Gate walked up to Hong Luan with a chuckle. "Miss Hong Luan, it's been a few months since we last met, and you've grown even more beautiful."

Hong Luan was carefully sizing up Su Yu; being interrupted by the young man, she immediately felt a bit displeased.

Wrinkling her delicate nose slightly, Hong Luan said rather flatly, "Mm."

After speaking, she once again turned her gaze toward Su Yu.

Compared to this Dao Child of the White Tiger Gate, Hong Luan was clearly more interested in Su Yu, whom she could not see through.

The White Tiger Gate's Dao Child was given the cold shoulder, and his expression immediately became hard to maintain.

Especially upon seeing Hong Luan continuously looking at Su Yu, a cold glint flashed through his eyes.

He was the Dao Child of the White Tiger Gate, and his cultivation had reached a terrifying nine hundred and eighty thousand li — only a hair's breadth away from breaking through to the Law Realm.

Within the White Tiger Gate, he was like the moon surrounded by stars; everyone regarded him as the future sect master of the White Tiger Gate.

And his personality was extremely arrogant; he did not deign to look at ordinary women.

Only toward Hong Luan did he feel admiration, even vowing that in this life he would marry no one but Hong Luan.

He even regarded Hong Luan as his Dao companion in his heart.

Now, watching Hong Luan keep her eyes on Su Yu, he naturally felt displeased.

For a moment, his gaze toward Su Yu was filled with gloom.

Su Yu naturally also noticed the White Tiger Gate Dao Child's gaze, lightly raised his brows, and asked Gan Tianlei beside him.

"Who is this person?"

Gan Tianlei glanced over and said nonchalantly, "The White Tiger Gate's Dao Child, Zhang Fengnian — nothing but a self-righteous fellow."

Su Yu gave a slight nod and did not ask further.

After all, Su Yu did not regard this person as worth his attention.

Or rather... among the entire younger generation of the Four Great Domains, there was no one Su Yu had ever regarded as worth his attention.

Just then, above the ninety-ninth-floor pavilion, a golden figure suddenly appeared.

A grand voice instantly boomed.

"The Blade-Wielding Court assessment begins now!"

"Assessment-takers, enter the Blade-Wielding Pavilion. Only those who ascend the Ninety-Ninth Heaven may participate in the next round of assessment!"

After endless unconsciousness, Shi Yu bolted upright from the bed. Please,

He took deep breaths of fresh air, his chest heaving.

Confusion, bewilderment — all kinds of emotions surged through his heart.

Where is this?

Then, Shi Yu subconsciously surveyed his surroundings, only to become even more bewildered.

A single dormitory room?

Even if he had been successfully rescued, he should be in a hospital room right now.

And his body... how could it be without a single injury?

Puzzled, Shi Yu's gaze swept quickly across the room, finally settling on a mirror by the bedside.

The mirror reflected his current appearance — roughly seventeen or eighteen years old, quite handsome.

But the problem was, this was not him! Read the latest chapter content ad-free

His former self was a handsome young man in his twenties with an extraordinary bearing, who had been working for some time.

But now, this face looked no older than a high schooler's no matter how he examined it...

This change left Shi Yu stunned for a long time.

Please don't tell him the surgery was a success...

His body and face had both changed — this was no longer a matter of surgery or not, but of immortal arts.

He had completely turned into another person!

Could it be... that he had transmigrated?

Besides the mirror by the bedside, whose placement was clearly bad feng shui, Shi Yu also discovered three books next to it.

Shi Yu picked them up for a look, and the book titles instantly left him speechless.

"Newbie Breeder's Essential Beast-Rearing Manual"

"Postpartum Care for Pet Beasts"

"Appraisal Guide for Exotic Race Beast-Ear Girls"

Shi Yu:???

The titles of the first two books were still normal; what's up with the last one?

"Cough."

Shi Yu's gaze turned solemn, he reached out his hand, but soon his arm stiffened.

Just as he tried to open the third book to see what it was, his brain suddenly felt a sharp pain, and a flood of memories surged like a tide.

I provide the high martial arts of the puppet controlled by the great god; I have a Synthesis Slot.
