Book 07 Chapter 061: Seeing Father

The instant Gu Hai drained all the Corpse Energy, his cultivation broke into the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm’s third layer. After losing the corpse lair, the corpse worm struggled painfully in Gu Hai’s grip.

Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee!

The corpse worm’s struggle startled everyone to their senses.

“Your Reverence!” The Unborn Man rushed over, feeling astonished.

Because of Lifespan Chunshen’s interference, the Unborn Man had not had time to break the Burial Mound Lifespan Ritual Array. Unexpectedly, Gu Hai broke it. Furthermore, Gu Hai did so by absorbing all the surging Corpse Energy into his body.

Countless corpse demons in the city reverted to their original form: ordinary corpses.

The many spiritual souls appeared indistinct as they saluted Gu Hai, “Your Reverence, many thanks for purifying us!”

The gratitude turned into beneficence, which would eventually become boundless blessings covering Gu Hai.

“We failed to ensure your safety; we have failed. However, we will avenge you!” Gu Hai said ferociously.

“Avenge? Humph! Gu Hai, do you think you can run today?” Long Shenwu said with a cold gaze.

“Oh? You are…Long Shenwu?” Gu Hai figured out that Long Shenwu had gotten his body back based on his gaze and air.

“Lifespan Chunshen, Lifespan Beiming, block the Unborn Man!” Long Shenying ordered coldly.

“Yes!” The two lifespan cultivators immediately charged at the Unborn Man.

Long Shenying, Long Shenwu, the Southern Sea Dragon King, and Ao Sheng surrounded Gu Hai.

“Gu Hai, how capable of you! To think you survived even that? However, you no longer have any blessings to protect you. Let’s see who can save you now!” Long Shenying said coldly.

“Long Shenying? You no longer have blessings to protect you, either?” Gu Hai sneered.

“Killing you will be easy!” Long Shenying said coldly.

“Killing us will be easy? Hah! Long Zhanguo’s son? He probably never expected you would become enemies with us one day,” Gu Hai said coldly with narrowed eyes.

“Humph! Don’t bring up Eminent Father. Although Eminent Father did not die because of you, you killed him in the end!” Long Shenying’s eyes turned cold as he charged over, the first to do so.

“We killed Long Zhanguo? Hah! Never mind, I’ll send you to see Long Zhanguo and let him deal with you,” Gu Hai said coldly.

Gu Hai placed the corpse worm into the Gu’s Immortal Firmament. Then, the Life Trapper Saber appeared in his left hand.

Boom!

Many enchanted treasures immediately shot out in all directions. Then, the Life Trapper Saber controlled them, laying a ritual array in the air.

“Don’t bother bringing up Eminent Father with me. Hahahaha! After killing Eminent Father, you want to kill us?” Long Shenwu rushed over with a furious glare.

Long Shenying also sped up because Gu Hai’s words infuriated him.

The Life Trapper Saber flared with green light.

Bang!

The Go Dao ritual array formed.

As Long Shenying charged over, a large black hole suddenly appeared before him.

This black hole was the passageway to Sa’s Immortal Firmament. Previously, Gu Hai had wanted to send Sect Master Heavenly Access over, but Sect Master Heavenly Access had struggled too intensely. Concerned that the black hole would break, he had released Sect Master Heavenly Access.

Long Shenying, Long Shenwu, the Southern Sea Dragon King, Ao Sheng, and the others did not have blessings boosting them. They were weaker than Sect Master Heavenly Access, so this should work.

When the black hole appeared, everyone’s expression changed as they stopped cold.

Word of Gu Hai’s battle with Sect Master Heavenly Access had spread all over the world. These people here recognized this black hole at a glance. This was a black hole that could trap Sect Master Heavenly Access; they absolutely could not enter it.

Boom!

Long Shenying and Long Shenwu stopped right in front of the black hole as their expressions changed dramatically.

That was close. Gu Hai’s ritual array nearly trapped me.

“Hah!” Long Shenying roared, and a large pair of dragon-scaled bone wings appeared on his back. He flapped his wings, wanting to change direction to go around the black hole and get to Gu Hai.

Just as Long Shenying was about to fly away, something strange happened.

Boom!

Long Shenwu suddenly landed a palm strike on Long Shenying’s back, sending Long Shenying into the black hole.

Long Shenying had not kept his guard up against Long Shenwu. How could he expect Long Shenwu would suddenly betray him at this moment?

“Third Younger Brother, how dare you?!” Long Shenying’s expression changed dramatically. However, he was already too late; he had fallen into the black hole.

“Long Shenwu, what are you doing?” the Southern Sea Dragon King demanded as his expression also changed dramatically.

Why did Long Shenwu attack Long Shenying at this moment?

Long Shenwu looked at Long Shenying, who was vanishing into the black hole. “First Elder Brother, don’t blame me. I don’t want to serve under you. Humph!”

“You?” The Southern Sea Dragon King’s expression changed.

“Hahaha! How stupid! You saved us a lot of trouble. Do you think you can escape?” Gu Hai revealed a cold smile.

Whoosh!

The black hole suddenly expanded over a hundred times. Long Shenwu was right at the black hole’s entrance, so the black hole instantly enveloped him.

“What? No!” Long Shenwu let out a startled cry as he tried to flee.

However, the black hole had changed too quickly. There was no time to escape; the black hole swallowed him in the blink of an eye.

The Long brothers went missing just like that.

“Let me out!”

The Long brothers’ roars came from the black hole.

Rumble…!

The black hole trembled.

The black hole had failed to trap Sect Master Heavenly Access, as he was too strong. Now that the Long brothers had transformed into their zombie bodies, they were not much weaker.

The two savagely attacked their surroundings, causing the black hole to tremble.

“Third Younger Brother, you fool!” Long Shenying roared furiously in the black hole.

“Humph! You forced me into it. We can discuss this after we get out!” Long Shenwu roared back furiously.

Rumble…!

The black hole trembled and churned, making it difficult for Gu Hai to maintain the ritual array.

However, the Southern Sea Dragon King and Ao Sheng did not know Gu Hai was bitterly maintaining the ritual array.

“Hurry! Kill Gu Hai, and they can come out!” Ao Sheng wanted to charge at Gu Hai.

Gu Hai’s eyes turned cold as he took out the Life Executioner Saber and swung it at Ao Sheng.

“Seventh Cycle!”

Boom!

A purple light soared into the sky and immediately blasted Ao Sheng away with a loud report. He spewed a mouthful of blood.

Ao Sheng had already been severely injured and had not fully recovered yet. How could he endure this saber strike? The world before him darkened as he nearly fainted.

The Southern Sea Dragon King caught Ao Sheng.

Blargh!

Ao Sheng vomited another mouthful of blood, rendered hors de combat.

On the other side, Lifespan Beiming and Lifespan Chunshen stopped fighting to stare at the sudden change in shock. Now, only the Southern Sea Dragon King remained capable of fighting Gu Hai.

Could the Southern Sea Dragon King deal with Gu Hai? The two lifespan cultivators felt a chill in their hearts. The Long brothers had been very powerful earlier, but they lost in a heartbeat. How long could the Southern Sea Dragon King last? Furthermore, Gu Hai even broke the Burial Mound Lifespan Ritual Array earlier. They were only incredible at lifespan cultivation, but their cultivations were not at the peak. What if…

The two shivered, quickly extended their hands, and swiped down in the air.

Buzz!

The two ran into the nether realm, fleeing.

“Halt!” The Unborn Man commanded a group of skeleton soldiers to rush in.

Buzz! The entrance to the nether realm closed.

The Unborn Man wanted to give chase but stopped after some thought. After all, Gu Hai was here.

The Unborn Man turned his head and looked at Gu Hai.

The Southern Sea Dragon King’s expression changed.

I’m alone now?

The Southern Sea Dragon King panicked, instinctively daunted at the prospect of facing Gu Hai.

“Gu Hai, just you wait! The Lord Buddha will not let you off!” the Southern Sea Dragon King said with rage on his face.

Then the Southern Sea Dragon King fled into the distance, carrying Ao Sheng.

He fled?

The Southern Sea Dragon King fled?

The nearby Gu Hai felt startled. He had been racking his brain over how to deal with the Southern Sea Dragon King. It looked like he had overthought.

While he had the courage to fight everyone, he might not win, so he had already been ready for a long, bitter fight.

After all, Long Shenying, Long Shenwu, and the Southern Sea Dragon King were very powerful. Although Gu Hai had advanced another layer, he was still weaker. Furthermore, there were three of them.

Even with the passageway between two immortal firmaments, Gu Hai had planned to depend on strategy for this battle.

However, who could have expected internal strife between the Long brothers, letting him benefit?

Who could have imagined the Southern Sea Dragon King would be so cowardly and get scared away?

“Your Reverence, are you alright?” The Unborn Man approached.

“We are fine. However, this pair of brothers is truly surprising.” Gu Hai flashed a cold smile.

“Your Reverence’s ritual array is indeed incredible!” the Unborn Man marveled.

Nearby, the spirit stones and enchanted treasures Gu Hai had laid out drained quickly of energy. The black hole trembled, and the Long brothers looked like they would escape anytime.

No, I cannot send both over together. However, I have to send one of them! Gu Hai thought.

“Unborn Man, protect us!” Gu Hai said.

“Yes!”

The Unborn Man watched the surroundings.

------

In the black hole:

The Long brothers saw a bright opening in the distance. A suction was pulling them there, so the two naturally considered it dangerous. They refused to go there and wanted to tear through the dark walls.

Just then, the suction on Long Shenwu doubled.

Whoosh!

The suction instantly pulled Long Shenwu to the other end of the tunnel.

“Oh, no! First Elder Brother, save me!” Long Shenwu cried out with a startled expression.

Long Shenying’s expression changed as he rushed over.

Long Shenying understood it would be hard for the two of them to tear open the black hole and all the more if he were alone.

Long Shenying grabbed Long Shenwu’s hand.

“First Elder Brother, pull me back. Pull me back! Don’t let go!” Long Shenwu exhorted anxiously.

Long Shenwu was about to enter the other end of the tunnel. He instinctively sensed danger, feeling it would be over if he were sucked in.

“Humph! Would we be in such a passive position if not for you?” Long Shenwu said with a sullen expression.

If Long Shenwu had not kicked me in, we would not be in such danger. This battle was a sure victory, but it is now a guaranteed defeat. Long Shenying felt furious when thinking of this.

“First Elder Brother, I did not expect this,” Long Shenwu said bitterly, clinging to Long Shenying.

Long Shenying dragged Long Shenwu out of the exit.

“First Elder Brother, it seems the suction on me has weakened?” Long Shenwu said after he got pulled out.

“When you were sucked over earlier, all the suction on me disappeared. Now that you are back, I feel it again,” Long Shenying said in confusion.

“That means this tunnel can only suck one person away?” Long Shenwu’s expression changed.

“One person?” Long Shenying narrowed his eyes.

Just at this moment, Long Shenwu suddenly shoved Long Shenying hard.

Boom!

“You bastard! Third Younger Brother, to think you tried this again?” Long Shenying quickly pushed Long Shenwu away.

This time, Long Shenying had his guard up.

“First Elder Brother, it looks like only one person can leave Gu Hai’s ritual array. Sorry!” Long Shenwu said coldly, wanting to attack again.

Boom!

Suddenly, a leg appeared and kicked Long Shenwu to the other side.

Gu Hai had entered the passageway. When he saw Long Shenwu’s shameless act, he kicked him to the other side.

“Long Shenwu? How two-faced,” Gu Hai said coldly.

“Gu Hai?” Long Shenying’s face sank as he looked at Gu Hai.

“Don’t worry. He won’t die. He went to meet Long Zhanguo,” Gu Hai said coldly.

“What?” Long Shenying said in confusion.

Suddenly, a barrier of light appeared at the exit, blocking off the Six Paths Immortal Firmament’s side.

The suction on Long Shenying’s body suddenly vanished.

Rumble…!

A compressive force appeared in the black tunnel, wanting to shred Gu Hai. However, he endured it with his strong physical body.

“This place is truly not suitable for people to remain in. Wearing down my three spiritual souls?” Gu Hai’s face sank.

Gu Hai wanted to go out. However, he could only endure the attacks of the black hole as he looked at the exit.

“Long Zhanguo, can you hear me? Hurry up! There’s a mishap outside; I can’t go back even though I want to!” Gu Hai shouted at the exit.

“What are you shouting?” Long Shenying looked at Gu Hai in confusion.

Just then, the footsteps of someone walking in leather shoes rang out on the other side. A pair of shiny leather shoes appeared at the exit.

Then a man wearing a black coat with a bow tie appeared on the other side. This person had the air of a businessman, but he was Long Zhanguo.

“Gu Hai? You sent Shenwu over?” Long Zhanguo said in confusion, frowning.

Long Shenying gaped, unable to close his mouth.

“Impossible! Impossible!” Long Shenying roared, wide-eyed.

“Zombie? Shenying, I told you before. You can cultivate Jiangchen’s body, but you should not become a zombie progeny. You did not cultivate your Corpse Energy yourself. Are you planning on becoming Jiangchen’s puppet?” Long Zhanguo said coldly from the other side.

Long Shenying trembled.
