Chapter 191: Chu Yang's Ultimate GoalćSecond Update!ć
Chu Yang remained silent, recalling the memories of the spirit of the first-generation Nine Calamity Sword Master: I had the heart to turn nine brothers into nine calamities to stabilize the continent, but I never expected to end up like this...
He couldn't help but let out a deep sigh.
From what Zixie Qing said, he finally understood some questions that had puzzled him for a long time...
Chu Yang finally grasped one thing: the Black Blood Jungle was the folding point of the Nine Heavens Continent, and the function of the Nine Calamity Sword was to maintain the stability of the continent. The Nine Calamity Sword Master appears once every ten thousand years, and the so-called unification of the Upper Three Heavens was not the goal; instead, it was to use this boundless slaughter to transform into bloody fortune, using the nine calamities as a catalyst, in conjunction with some unknown formation or secret method, to maintain the continent's stability for another ten thousand years.
The edge of the Black Blood Jungle returned to its color after nine thousand years, and the hardness of the sealed area turned into the usual softness, indicating that this folding point was nearing collapse, unable to hold itself together. It was about to collapse...
As long as the Nine Calamity Sword Master could reverse the situation, and the nine brothers reached the supreme cultivation level and turned into nine calamities, they would be able to stabilize the Upper Three Heavens once again.
Otherwise, it would inevitably collapse completely.
Just like ninety thousand years ago, the entire Middle Three Heavens and Lower Three Heavens were turned to dust, leaving nothing behind...
With this thought, Chu Yang suddenly felt a heaviness in his heart. In his mind, he asked the Sword Spirit, "Is it like this?"
The Sword Spirit dared not answer and nodded slightly.
Chu Yang was taken aback.
He had always hoped to open the dimensional passage earlier, to bring his brothers up and create great achievements together. But at this moment, he suddenly felt lost.
If they came up, would they really have to turn into nine calamities and sacrifice themselves for the continent?
If they didn't come up, they would still be crushed below...
Here, it had unexpectedly become a deadlock.
Chu Yang's fists clenched tightly, and he said softly, "But I will never let them die, no matter what..."
The Sword Spirit said with some pity, "But... if it really comes to that, I fear it will no longer be up to you."
Chu Yang smiled coldly.
His cold smile was filled with despair and determination, a chilling laugh.
A surge of fear suddenly welled up in the Sword Spirit's heart, realizing Chu Yang's intention, and gasped, "Could it be that you... could it be that you..."
Chu Yang chuckled coldly, "That's right. If it really comes to that, and I have no choice, I still have one last move I can use."
The Sword Spirit was stunned!
The last moveāhow could he not know what Chu Yang's last move was?
With my lifeās blood, catastrophic ruin!
That was a move meant to kill the enemy by first sacrificing oneself.
Chu Yang slowly said, "If in the end, I cannot escape fate, then so be it. With my lifeās blood, catastrophic ruin! After that, if time can start over, then I will never choose to bind myself as brothers... If it cannot start over, my death will not change anything; even if my brothers still die, at least... I died first. They did not die before me. Though selfish, at least I... I have no regrets towards my brothers, because ultimately, I did not use them to exchange for anything."
The Sword Spirit let out a long sigh: "Have you considered that if you are not the Nine Calamity Sword Master, and someone else becomes the Nine Calamity Sword Master, your brothers would still die? They may even not live that long at all."
Chu Yang smiled warmly: "But that wouldnāt be because of me. As long as I am here, I will not allow them to die before me."
The Sword Spirit opened his mouth but felt that no matter what he said, it would sound so pale and powerless, so he chose to remain silent.
