Chapter 333: Chapter 331: The Murder of a Master! 【Congratulations Yuluo on becoming the Alliance Hierarch of this book】
On Heming Mountain, sorrow spans the wild!
Below and above the Heavenly Master Sect, from Elders to ordinary disciples, all wore faces as pale as death, as if mourning a profound loss.
Xuan Nan, Xuan Gang, Xuan Jin, Xuan Mu, Xuan Bei, and Xuan Ku, six Elders, gathered together discussing how to cope with the current crisis.
However, none of the six spoke; their faces were ashen, accompanied by sighs of despair.
Just when they felt utterly helpless, a beam of light soared from Heming Mountain straight into the Nine Heavens Cloud.
"What’s happening?" asked Xuan Gang in astonishment.
Narrowing his eyes, Xuan Nan said, "It’s coming from the direction of the back mountain, could it be that Little Yuu has left his retreat?"
"Little Yuu? Elder Brother Xuan Nan, you mean Sect Leader’s Closed-door Disciple Gongzi Yuu, right? Wasn’t he crippled by Immortal Master Li?" Xuan Bei asked, puzzled.
After thinking for a moment, Xuan Nan said, "The exact situation is unclear to me, but I do know that Sect Leader has passed on to him our sect’s ultimate skill, ’Heaven and Earth are Limitless’!"
Hearing the four words "Heaven and Earth are Limitless," a shock went through the hearts of Elders like Xuan Bei and Xuan Gang.
Heaven and Earth are Limitless was the sect’s most formidable Secret Manual, but its difficulty was akin to ascending the heavens. The requirement for cultivation was extremely demanding, requiring one to first discard all previous cultivation.
Moreover, any slight misstep could result in demonic deviation, or even death from a burst body. Thus, for centuries, few have dared to touch it, leaving it shelved in the highest loft.
Never could they have imagined that, at the moment their sect faced existential peril, an astonishing disciple would succeed in cultivating Heaven and Earth are Limitless.
With these thoughts, Xuan Nan and others, ecstatic, pressed their palms together and repeatedly bowed deeply in front of the statue of their ancestor, Zhang Daoling.
As Xuan Nan and the others prepared to visit the back mountain to investigate, a figure clad in white and with silver hair suddenly walked in.
Seeing the newcomer, Xuan Nan asked in surprise, "Are you Little Yuu?"
The person was none other than Gongzi Yuu, who had just ended his retreat. However, compared to before, his hair that used to be black and shiny was now white as snow, and his body emanated an exceptionally domineering aura.
Gongzi Yuu glanced around and asked, "Elders, what is this mess about?"
Although he was the junior, his tone carried no hint of respect, instead sounding almost like an elder chiding a younger one.
Xuan Nan and the others didn’t take offense to this and simply laid out everything that had happened.
Upon hearing their accounts, Gongzi Yuu’s brows immediately furrowed tightly, like iron chains binding a ship.
"What? My master was injured by Immortal Master Li, and both the Zhang Ling Sword and the Heavenly Master Token were taken by him?"
Xuan Nan let out a heavy sigh and said, "Little Yuu, you don’t know, Immortal Master Li’s methods reach the heavens, he’s almost demonic. We are no match for him, we’re simply..."
"Alright, Elder Xuan Nan, now is not the time for that. Take me to see my master first!" Gongzi Yuu, hearing Xuan Nan continually praising Li Chen’s formidable prowess, interrupted rather coldly and annoyed.
Xuan Nan felt somewhat guilty and so ignored Gongzi Yuu’s rudeness.
He quickly agreed and led Gongzi Yuu into Sect Leader Xuan Tian’s chamber.
At this moment, Xuan Tian was lying on a sandalwood bed, with a boy and a girl kneeling at its foot, diligently tending to him.
Gongzi Yuu gestured with his hands, signaling the two children to step aside.
He stepped forward to check Xuan Tian’s complexion and asked, "Has my master awoken?"
The girl shook her head, timidly saying, "The Sect Leader has been unconscious the whole time, never waking up!"
Xuan Nan and the others hurried forward, asking urgently, "Little Yuu, how is Sect Leader’s condition; can he recover?"
Gongzi Yuu paused for a moment before saying, "It’s nothing serious. Elders, could you please step out for a bit? I’ll treat master’s injuries and see if I can wake him up?"
Xuan Gang asked, "Little Yuu, do you need your uncle’s help?"
Gongzi Yuu waved his hand and refused decisively, "No need, I can manage on my own. Alright, everyone please step out, so as not to delay the best time for treatment!"
Xuan Gang, Xuan Nan, and the other Elders exchanged glances, their expressions showing that they had something to say but stopped short.
After a while, Xuan Nan was the first to speak up, "Little Yuu, we’ll stand guard at the door. If anything happens, just call out to us!"
Gongzi Yuu, somewhat impatient, dismissed them as though shooing away chickens and dogs, "Alright, I’ve got it, just hurry out!"
After sending Xuan Nan and the others away, Gongzi Yuu’s pupils contracted slightly, revealing a fervent greed.
The Heaven and Earth are Limitless technique he cultivated was a defying secret technique that specialized in absorbing others’ cultivation and turning it into his own. There was no need to speak of decades of arduous cultivation; he only needed one night, or even just a few hours, to forcibly seize it.
In his eyes, an expert who was over a hundred years old and in the Half-step Divine Realm was a greater tonic than a thousand-year-old ginseng. If he could fully absorb his master’s cultivation, his own power would surely rise to the next level.
At this thought, Gongzi Yuu couldn’t contain the excitement in his heart. He summoned his True Yuan secretly and condensed a black lotus vortex in the palm of his hand.
He glanced at the vortex in his palm and then back at his master lying on the bed, his eyes immediately flashing a cold harshness.
"Master, I’m sorry!"
Before the last word fell, Gongzi Yuu slapped his palm onto Xuan Tian’s chest, planting the black lotus within.
The black lotus began to rotate counterclockwise, slowly at first, then faster and faster.
The muscles in Xuan Tian’s body convulsed violently along with the rotation of the black vortex. His True Essence Spiritual Power rushed like rivers into the sea, pooling atop the lotus and continuously pouring into Gongzi Yuu’s Dantian.
At this crucial moment, Xuan Tian suddenly opened his eyes.
He looked at the white-haired youth before him and let out a disbelieving cry, "Is that you, Little Yuu?"
Gongzi Yuu, caught by his master, felt a shock at first. However, he quickly regained his composure.
"Master, it’s me!"
Xuan Tian glanced at his own body, visibly withering and collapsing at the speed of sight, his pupils dilating in the blink of an eye as he urgently questioned, "Little Yuu, what are you doing?"
"Master, I’m helping you relieve your pain!"
After saying this, Gongzi Yuu forcefully gathered his True Yuan and harshly struck Xuan Tian’s top of the skull.
"Monstrous disciple!"
Using all the strength in his body, Xuan Tian squeezed out his final two words through his teeth; then his skull was split open, white brain matter mixed with gushing fresh blood splattered everywhere, a horrifying sight.
Just then, the door was kicked open.
Hearing the commotion, Elders Xuan Nan, Xuan Gang, Xuan Jin, Xuan Mu, Xuan Bei, and Xuan Ku quickly ran inside.
When they saw their Sect Leader Brother with his brain matter spilling out, lying on the bed like a dead dog, the world went dark before their eyes, and everything seemed to spin.
