Chapter 1021: Wan Luo: My Seven Emotions Great Hand Seal Is Invincible!

~10 min read 1,911 words

In the underwater world, the first man from the Purple Flame Hell, the Purple-Haired Warden Yida, wore an expression of utter disbelief, for he discovered that in this underwater realm, two beings existed—divine, demonic, saintly, imperial—endless pressure radiating from their bodies; around them, it seemed as if all the stars of heaven and the cosmic magnetism of the cosmos had descended, and with the slightest movement, they could crush him.

These were two supreme强者, their strength utterly beyond Yida's imagination.

He pondered his own realm had reached the late stage of the Void冥 Realm, which in this world was no small feat, yet now he felt weak—so weak that even a flick of their hands could slay him.

Could these two beings be the legendary Discarnate Immortals, and among the most formidable of them?

Yida recalled the legends of Discarnate Immortals: there were twelve levels total; the power of a First-Catastrophe Discarnate Immortal was unknown, but by the Second-Catastrophe level, one's strength matched that of a Tribulation Crossing expert; by the Fourth-Catastrophe level, one rivaled the legendary Celestial Immortals!

Above the Fourth-Catastrophe level, strength grew ever greater—such as a Seventh-Catastrophe Discarnate Immortal, whose power equaled that of a Fourth-Rank Celestial Immortal.

If these two beings were such Discarnate Immortals, then he truly had no chance to resist.

"You've all arrived. Good."

At that moment, Fang Yu's voice rang out, landing deep within the hearts of every cultivator who had come; each word carried the weight of ten thousand jūn, resonating with undeniable force.

"All of you here today are destined to the Nine Sword Immortal Mansion; each of you possesses at least one Jade Sword. Only when the Nine Swords unite can the Nine Sword Immortal Mansion open—but you are scattered far and wide, and gathering all nine may take countless years. So I lend you a hand, bringing the Nine Swords together at once. And since you are all destined ones, I grant you this opportunity: to arrive here."

As Fang Yu finished speaking, those who had arrived now saw that in the empty air above them, nine Jade Swords truly existed, emitting a hazy glow, faintly pointing toward the true location of the Nine Sword Immortal Mansion.

"The Nine Swords are already complete?"

The first man from the Purple Flame Hell, the Purple-Haired Warden Yida, now noticed more details—he saw his own former Jade Sword, now truly here, and his face flushed with overwhelming excitement; he even entertained the thought of seizing it back, but that thought vanished in an instant.

He did not wish to die—he wanted to live and claim the opportunity of the Nine Sword Immortal Mansion—so he could not act rashly.

His gaze turned to the others nearby: most he had seen before—the Azure Dragon of Azure Long Gong, the Three-Eyed Ancient Demon of Green Water Mansion, the True Person Yan Xu of Penglai Immortal Realm, and a tiny serpent; besides them, two others were unfamiliar.

One appeared to be a human cultivator, yet moved with perfect ease here—clearly a junior of the two beings; the other was a black-robed man radiating the aura of a primordial beast, his eyes filled with shock and uncertainty, as if he were a divine beast from the Primordial Era.

Clearly, this final man was the owner of either the ninth or eighth Jade Sword.

"Your one day's effort equals our countless years of arduous cultivation—we thank you, reverend, and are deeply grateful for this opportunity you've granted us; your noble virtue truly inspires reverence!"

At that moment, the True Person Yan Xu of Penglai Immortal Realm bowed deeply and spoke earnestly.

"Indeed, without you, reverend, we might never have gathered these nine Jade Swords—especially the ninth, which we've searched for countless years with no success."

The Three-Eyed Ancient Demon of Green Water Mansion spoke, his expression deeply respectful; having reached this realm, he was no fool—he knew full well the terror of a being who could silently steal his Jade Sword.

Yet his gaze turned to the black-robed man—the owner of the ninth Jade Sword; for this final sword, they had expended countless years of effort.

"I am Yan Mo, ruler of the three-million-li outer reaches of the Primordial Era, and I pay my respects to you, reverend!"

Seeing the Three-Eyed Ancient Demon's gaze upon him, the black-robed man introduced himself; he too must show respect toward Fang Yu and the "Uncle Lan."

Though his true form was a black dragon of exalted status, he sensed that before these two beings, he must remain humble—otherwise, even if he were a Azure Dragon, he might perish.

"A divine beast of the Primordial Era!"

"An entity from the Primordial Era's outer reaches?"

"So he hails from the depths of the Dragon Subcontinent…"

When the black dragon Yan Mo revealed his title, the others instantly understood: the outer reaches of the Primordial Era were a terrifying place, where demonic beasts roamed freely—Jin Dan, Nascent Soul, even Void-Piercing beasts; to control three million li of its outer reaches, his cultivation base must have reached the Void冥 Realm.

For a divine beast, even a Void冥 Realm cultivator could rival a Tribulation Crossing human cultivator.

No wonder, in past ages, their派出 forces had never found the Jade Sword.

But now, all nine Jade Swords were complete.

They could proceed to the Nine Sword Immortal Mansion.

Of course, how exactly to proceed depended entirely on the mysterious young being's will.

All present could sense the overwhelming power of the two beings—far surpassing Tribulation Crossing and Great Ascension, yet still lingering in the Mortal Realm; they were surely not Celestial Immortals, but Discarnate Immortals—the most formidable among them.

The history of the cultivation world exceeded a million years; countless experts had attempted Tribulation Crossing—some perished utterly, others survived the failure and became Discarnate Immortals; those who reached the highest realms of Discarnate Immortality were terrifying indeed.

"Since all are assembled, we may depart."

Seeing everyone's eagerness to reach the Nine Sword Immortal Mansion, Fang Yu turned to Uncle Lan. "I plan to go out and take a look. Will you come along?"

"I won't go—but I can let Jiang Lier go."

"Uncle Lan" shook his head.

"Very well. Then let us go."

Fang Yu swept his hand, enveloping everyone, then stepped forward—and arrived at another location: the Chaotic Star Sea.

The Chaotic Star Sea was infamous for its peril; when Fang Yu and the others arrived, they saw waves crashing violently nearby, as if ready to drown all existence, and most peculiarly, the spiritual energy here was wildly chaotic—filled with turbulent, disordered qi; even the slightest breath of this energy stirred boundless irritation in their hearts, making each one yearn to slaughter everything around them.

"The Nine Sword Immortal Mansion is here?!"

Di Long, the Grand Master of the Nine Demon Sect, turned pale—he felt he was about to suffer qi deviation.

The spiritual energy here was far too chaotic; moreover, the air itself reeked of disorder, driving him into unbearable agitation.

He immediately realized how perilous this journey was.

"The Chaotic Star Sea is indeed no place to tread lightly—even as a divine beast, I dare not enter casually."

The Lord of Azure Long Gong, an Azure Dragon, appeared solemn. "Beneath these waters lie countless terrifying beasts—low in intellect, never taking human form, yet ferociously savage; the strongest can rival divine beasts in power. While one or two wouldn't trouble me, there are not just one or two here—there are hundreds, even thousands!"

"And rumors say this sea holds countless Discarnate Immortals—many above the Fourth-Catastrophe level; if we encounter them, we'll face great trouble!"

The Three-Eyed Ancient Demon also appeared solemn.

"Why are you so tense? If a reverend brought us here, what beasts or Discarnate Immortals could possibly challenge him? This reverend can teleport us all here in an instant—what beast would dare act up with him present?"

Yan Xu remained calm—he knew that with this reverend leading them, they had likely been teleported directly to the gates of the Nine Sword Immortal Mansion; his gaze swept sideways, searching for its location.

"Yes! With the reverend here, why fear any beasts or Discarnate Immortals?"

Hearing Yan Xu's words, the others' eyes lit up; though Yan Xu was clearly flattering, his point was sound.

At that moment, beams of light appeared in the void—amber, moon-white, azure—various hues radiating outward, revealing a vast structure beneath the sea.

"The Immortal Mansion—the Nine Sword Immortal Mansion!"

All gazed toward it: a massive gate of bronze hue, radiating an ancient aura—as if this Immortal Mansion, having waited for ten million years, had finally found its destined ones.

Powerful energy spread outward; the beasts of the Star Sea roared in terror, trembling, none daring to approach.

Fang Yu stepped forward, arriving before the Immortal Mansion gate—its surface appeared of jade, translucent and luminous, bearing nine holes clearly meant for the insertion of the nine Jade Swords.

Fang Yu did not hesitate any longer, directly stabbing the nine jade swords into them. Instantly, the nine jade swords vanished very abruptly, and at the same time the nine sword-holes lit up. The nine sword-holes emitted nine beams of light that intertwined with each other like ropes.

Rumble, rumble.

A deafening sound rang out.

Endless light shone over.

Immediately afterward, the crowd vanished from before the immortal mansion and entered into the immortal mansion.

"This feeling of entering an immortal mansion is really quite nice. Too bad this immortal mansion is not the Taiyuan Immortal Mansion, nor the Bodhi Immortal Mansion."

Fang Yu sensed the Nine Swords Immortal Mansion drawing him in and found it somewhat interesting.

When he was in the Eternal Life Realm, he had also adventured through a few Secret Realms, such as the Coiled Dragon Star, such as the Secret Realm containing the Great Curse Art, but this kind of entering an immortal mansion seemed to still be his first time. This feeling was quite nice.

Entering the immortal mansion and looking around, everywhere was an ocean of white clouds and mist. The entire world was completely white clouds and mist. It also contained many restrictive formations that prevented one's divine sense from looking ahead. An ordinary cultivator arriving here could at most see through several dozen meters, but of course such rules had no effect on Fang Yu.

"What place is this?"

Beside Fang Yu, Qin Yu immediately looked around in all four directions. However, when he saw that Immortal Fang was by his side, and that Miss Jiang Lier was also not far away, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"This is a formation, an extremely profound and mysterious formation."

Jiang Lier surveyed the surrounding scene and spoke.

"Oh, are you certain?"

Qin Yu asked in return.

Jiang Lier raised her chin at Qin Yu and said: "Of course."

The two exchanged a glance and both smiled.

"Here... could this be inside an immortal mansion?"

The Blue Dragon, not far away, looked at everything around him, a few traces of surprise appearing on his face. He discovered that his divine sense here was actually suppressed to the point that he could not see clearly at all.

A world of blank whiteness, unable to see clearly what was inside — who knew what crisis it might contain.

"This is... the Bewildering Demon Realm?"

The Three-Eyed Old Monster from the Green Water Mansion saw a stone tablet beside him, on which were written four large characters: "Bewildering Demon Realm."
