Chapter 1025: Chapter 1044: A Pawn Is Just a Pawn
“Furthermore, with both of us cultivating two supreme techniques, it’s only a matter of time before we surpass Ye Xuan and Luo Hou. Then, the Three Realms of Heaven and Earth will be ours,” Lin Feiyun excitedly transmitted.
“Why should I believe you?” Li Youyun was extremely tempted but still cautiously transmitted back.
“You have no choice but to trust me, otherwise only one of us will survive today, and that survivor will also become their puppet,” Lin Feiyun said with determination.
“And don’t forget, the enmity between us was all manipulated by Ye Xuan. We have no personal grievance. As long as we unite, we can surely escape their control and avenge Ye Xuan in the future,” Lin Feiyun earnestly stated.
“Alright, I’ll trust you this once.” Li Youyun finally made up his mind because he didn’t want to be a pawn for Ye Xuan; he wanted to control his own destiny.
For a year, the two seemed to be fighting to the death, but in reality, Lin Feiyun was passing the Tribulation Immortal Skill to Li Youyun, allowing him to secretly cultivate, aiming to combine two supreme techniques and escape the control of Ye Xuan and Luo Hou.
Back to reality, Lin Feiyun and Li Youyun stood side by side, both their faces bearing a mocking expression. The undying demon light and red dust qi intertwined, surrounding the two.
The Undying Immortal Scripture and the Myriad Feet Red Dust Technique fused into one, birthing a power so astounding it tore apart the space before Li Youyun and Lin Feiyun.
“Ye Xuan, my dear master, your disciple forgot to tell you that I have fully mastered the Forbidden Chapter of the Undying Immortal Scripture. Now that I’ve merged with the Myriad Feet Red Dust Technique, I will surely repay your kindness in the future.”
“Haha.”
Lin Feiyun laughed wildly, overwhelmed with excitement.
“Ye Xuan, Luo Hou, it won’t be long before I, Li Youyun, will pay you both back.” Li Youyun growled coldly.
“Let’s go.”
Rumbling.
Qiankun Inversion, space cracked open as the two swallowed each other’s cultivation, merging the two supreme techniques, surpassing the so-called Quasi-Saint level. Even if they weren’t Saints, they were close.
At this moment, the two tore open space to escape the Heavenly Court, planning to settle all grudges with Ye Xuan and Luo Hou once their cultivation reached great success in the future.
“Ye Xuan, Luo Hou, we will meet again in the future.”
Lin Feiyun and Li Youyun entered the spatial rift together, instantly disappearing from the eyes of Ye Xuan and Luo Hou.
Above the ninth layer of clouds.
Ye Xuan looked on calmly as the two left, while Luo Hou’s eyes remained tranquil, showing no sign of anger, only a trace of disdain flickered in his eyes.
“Ye Daoist, we have achieved our goal,” Luo Hou casually remarked.
“A pawn is ultimately just a pawn, never able to escape its fate,” Ye Xuan replied calmly.
“The Red Dust Six Tribulations, the Heavenly Dao Six Tribulations, we cross tribulations together; you really thought this through, Ye Daoist,” Luo Hou sighed in admiration.
“The Great Dao is fifty, Heaven’s evolution takes forty-nine. Li Youyun and Lin Feiyun are the one that got away. Only with them merging the Undying Immortal Scripture and the Myriad Feet Red Dust Technique and generating a sliver of Power of Chaos Origin can we complete our laws and dao, helping us enter the Heavenly Dao Six Tribulations and the Red Dust Six Tribulations,” Ye Xuan said with a slight smile.
“Ye Daoist, your cunning is unmatched, I, Luo Hou, am full of admiration,” Luo Hou commented, somewhat sarcastically.
“The same could be said for you; if you hadn’t cooperated, how could I have succeeded?” Ye Xuan countered mockingly.
“Hahaha.”
Ye Xuan and Luo Hou shared a knowing smile and then laughed heartily together.
“Ye Daoist, after you.”
Luo Hou rose from the clouds, making a gesture of invitation to Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan did not hesitate, stepping out and disappearing from the Thirty-Three Heavens, while Luo Hou turned into a wisp of black smoke and vanished.
Everything was under the control of Ye Xuan and Luo Hou; it could only be said that Lin Feiyun and Li Youyun were too young. How could their little schemes escape the eyes of these two old foxes?
Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, known as the Chaos Demon God, has survived since the creation of the world, even managing to escape from Hong Jun in the past.
Ye Xuan needs no introduction; he began cultivating the Undying Immortal Scripture at fourteen and, under the guidance of the Primordial Spirit, endured for many years, taking over twenty thousand years to reach his current state.
Li Youyun and Lin Feiyun have, at most, cultivated for thirty thousand years. Although this allowed them to step into the Quasi-Saint Realm, such cultivation speed is unprecedented.
Yet, compared to Ye Xuan and Luo Hou, their plotting and depth of mind were immature, utterly calculated by Luo Hou and Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan’s step-by-step cultivation to today was largely due to his tumultuous experiences; he had seen all kinds of schemers over the years. The likes of Lin Feiyun and Li Youyun wishing to escape his control was simply a pipe dream.
…
Outside the Thirty-Three Heavens.
Buzz!
Stellar ripples and waves appeared, revealing Lin Feiyun and Li Youyun on a withered star, both gazing at the vast, boundless outer space with excitement on their faces.
“Brother Youyun, the space outside the Thirty-Three Heavens is infinite. Even if Ye Xuan and Luo Hou have heaven-penetrating cultivation, they’ll never find us,” Lin Feiyun said with a smug smile.
“Brother Feiyun, let bygones be bygones. I hope we can advance and retreat together, and when our cultivation reaches great success, we will vanquish Ye Xuan and Luo Hou,” Li Youyun spoke coldly.
“Rest assured, Brother Youyun. Now that we hold two supreme techniques, this is the foundation of our rise. We will surely annihilate those two scoundrels in the future,” Lin Feiyun declared confidently.
“But, speaking of which, we owe it all to Ye Xuan. Otherwise, we would still be mortals, long dead in the mortal world and never achieving the cultivation we have today,” Li Youyun said with a faint smile.
“Unfortunately, Ye Xuan and Luo Hou were too confident, which was their biggest flaw. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have given us this chance to escape into the outer star space,” Lin Feiyun replied.
“My dear disciple, you’ve proven I saw you correctly.”
Suddenly, a gentle voice rang out, causing both Lin Feiyun and Li Youyun to change their expressions dramatically, staring in shock at the source of the voice.
Buzz!
Changing Heaven and Earth, Qiankun Shifting, Ye Xuan and Luo Hou’s figures flickered as they walked through the starry sky, appearing before the two in the blink of an eye.
“This… how is this possible…?” Lin Feiyun shouted in horror, retreating with disbelief in his eyes.
“How… could you find us?” Li Youyun was equally pale, his eyes filled with terror as he looked at Ye Xuan and Luo Hou.
“Ah, all your cultivation is given by Ye Daoist and me; how could we not find you?” Luo Hou sighed in resignation.
