Transcending the Nine Heavens

CHAPTER 108: Light Dance

Chu Yang thought to himself, unable to help but smile.

This third-tier level was not something one could reach casually; firstly, the various spiritual medicines acquired from raiding families, after being refined by the Nine Calamity Sword, played a significant role; secondly, during these past twenty days, he had fought four to five dozen battles, all at the cost of his aching body.

Such training, Chu Yang believed, was akin to self-mortification. He couldn't dodge; it was best to face everything head-on, and he could not use his killing moves, nor could he employ the Nine Calamity Sword; once he killed someone with it... he would have no chance to comprehend anything further.

However, in terms of actual strength, he found himself lacking compared to others... wasn’t that just asking for trouble?

Lost in thought, he suddenly heard an earth-shattering howl from the direction of the city gate: “Where is Du Shiqing?! Du Shiqing, come out!” The voice was filled with endless panic and sorrow, along with a hint of urgency!

But the person who made the call had an evident depth of power!

Chu Yang was startled, suddenly looking up: Who is this? This person has impressive strength. What do they want with Du Shiqing...?

The voice came from a great distance, but for some unknown reason, a wave of indescribable anxiety surged within Chu Yang's heart, as if something bad was happening...

With a rush, Chu Yang dashed towards the South City Gate.

He didn’t know why he made such a move; he just felt a sudden panic in his heart! Why?

The voice continued to call for Du Shiqing, the urgency and fear in it made one acutely aware that this person's heart was in chaos!

Getting closer!

Chu Yang was like the wind, rushing forward.

At the city gate, a burly man in black rushed in, carrying someone on his back like a whirlwind. The soldiers guarding the gate hadn’t even had time to react when they saw a black whirlwind sweep past them and disappear onto the road into the city! The quickest soldier suddenly lost his footing, blood spraying out wildly!

No one could clearly see how this man had acted.

“Stop!” A few experts and officers stationed at the South City Gate jumped up to block the man; a figure in white, agile as the wind, leaped to intercept. The black and white figures flashed past each other like lightning, resulting in two loud impacts; the white figure let out a miserable groan and staggered down, blood gushing from his mouth. As he fell halfway, the sound of “crack crack” echoed from his broken bones.

But he ultimately managed to delay the black-clad man for a moment, allowing seven or eight figures to surround the black-clothed person.

The momentum of the black-clad man came to a halt, his eyes wild with fury as he roared, “Get out of the way! Let Du Shiqing come meet me!”

“Impudence!” Du Shiqing had been personally welcomed into the imperial city by Tie Butian; who didn't know about this? Right now, Du Shiqing was in the palace, treating the Iron Cloud Nation's ruler, how could he be disturbed?

“Get out of the way!” Blood was flowing from the corner of the black-clad man's mouth, clearly suffering from internal injuries, but his imposing aura was still overwhelming. Seeing that the seven or eight people in front of him wouldn’t yield and ordinary soldiers surrounding him, he became furious, took a deep breath, and struck.

As he struck, the energy surged like a raging tide, unstoppable!

The seven men opposite him exclaimed in unison, “Sovereign level expert?!” They didn’t dare to be careless and braced themselves to meet the attack.

The burly man in black showed a hint of ferocity, roaring, “If you don’t give way, you’ll all die!” The enormous energy contained within his palm shot out violently!

In such a situation, he still managed to keep one hand steady on the person on his back. On his back, someone lay quietly, not moving at all, their large cloak covering their body, making it impossible to discern their appearance. From the shape, however, they seemed very frail, almost like a child...
