CHAPTER 319: The Secrets of the Nine Calamities [Fourth Update!]
The Law Sovereign smiled faintly as he spoke, his tone filled with a lingering nostalgia and an indescribable sense of melancholy.
“Hehe, back then, from the very beginning, the boss provided us with countless spiritual pills and spiritual medicines. Almost every few days, our cultivation levels would surge! The boss said we were to dominate the Nine Heavens together! We were to fulfill our ultimate dream together.”
Hearing this, Zixie Qing couldn't help but sigh and scold, “This is simply nonsense! Accumulating through drugs is just harming people, isn’t it?”
Chu Yang strongly agreed.
Who could become one of the nine calamities if they weren't an unparalleled genius? Relying on drugs directly blocked these people from shattering spirit and breaking the void.
However, if they hadn't considered their future from the start and were simply trying to restore them to the heavens… doing so could be seen as a method. It was just a bit too cold-hearted.
The Law Sovereign continued recounting.
“My brothers and I gave everything for each other! Including our lives, which we would willingly give to one another! The boss never said anything to us. At that time, we felt that even the gods couldn't make us ten brothers bow down and retreat!”
“We fought our way up, killing martial sovereigns, defeating thrones, slaying imperial thrones, leveling Lord Jun, and battling supreme beings! We rose through the storm and sang our way through!”
“When we reached the upper three heavens, we advanced step by step, engaging in battle family by family, from weak to strong. I can't even remember how many times we faced death, circling at the gates of the underworld over and over again, hehe… Finally, all ten brothers reached supreme cultivation levels! The nine great clans’ unreasonable antics were finally leveled by us! Hehe, it was much easier back then than it is now for the nine calamity sword master, and there weren't many supreme beings above the sixth rank in the entire Nine Heavens. As for the seventh rank, there were none at all… Hehe.”
“With the Law Sovereign leading the enforcement, we were exhausted every day, but we were immensely happy. Every day, we gathered together, excitedly discussing and paying close attention to each other's changes and injuries. When a brother got hurt, we all cursed together, and when a brother achieved victory, we celebrated together. In the iron-blooded martial arts world, we could come and go as we pleased, kill at will, and reign freely! Those days… truly were a glorious time… If only time could freeze at that moment, even if we were forever caught in such chaotic battles, it would still be the greatest happiness.”
“But although we were happy then, we were exhausted. Everyone wanted to quickly sweep through the Nine Heavens, fulfilling our ultimate dream, standing together at the pinnacle of the world, and then live a peaceful and harmonious life. So we rallied our strength and finally wiped out the nine great clans.”
“After that, the ten brothers each established their own families, recruiting masters from the Nine Heavens, and finally, peace returned to the whole Nine Heavens.”
“Everyone thought they could enjoy life now, that this world was now under our control. Two years later, the boss called us for a drink. How could we brothers not go? Of course, we had to go! So everyone excitedly went.”
The Law Sovereign spoke in a calm manner, as if narrating someone else's story, with a very plain tone.
But within that plainness, there was an indescribable emotion.
At this point, although there was no intentional emphasis, Chu Yang felt a chill blowing against the back of his head.
A chilling breeze.
Chu Yang thought, it seems this drink is going to bring trouble.
“On that day, when we arrived, the boss said that our cultivation levels were too high. Now we can’t even get drunk from drinking; we unconsciously circulate our energy, and the effects of the alcohol just vanish, which is pointless! Let’s simply seal our cultivation levels and drink to our heart’s content. If we can’t get drunk, it’s no fun! Everyone roared in agreement! The Nine Heavens belong to us; what danger could there be? Just sealing our cultivation levels! We’ve done this many times before; drinking like this is the best! Haha…”
