Chapter 809: Chapter 396: Nine-Tailed Zhu Chan?

"It’s you?"

Jiang Shouzhong’s eyes flashed with a hint of astonishment.

He truly hadn’t expected that this guy would show up here.

Heaven Master Chou, however, paid him no heed. He slowly turned around, his gaze greedily landing on Jiang Yi, who was curled up inside the celestial cactus. With a hint of emotion, he said:

"Charming Bone gifted by heaven! This woman truly is an ideal Tool Girl. This lass and Li Guanshi... they are like twin lotuses growing on the same stalk, a match made by destiny. If only they had been born in the era of this old man, how wonderful it would have been."

"With their assistance, the dual cultivation method of ascension that this old man has pursued would surely succeed."

"But alas, with the cultivation I have now, getting Li Guanshi is absolutely impossible. However, if I could obtain this lass and augment my method with my ’Yin Yang Divine Thistle Register,’ perhaps Ascension would no longer be a mere dream."

"Hey, old geezer."

Jiang Shouzhong pulled out the Seven Kills Blade, its cold light radiating as he sneered and said, "You’ve got one foot in the grave already, and yet you’re still dreaming about dual cultivation, such disgraceful things? With those old bones of yours, I’d bet you don’t even have the energy for that anymore."

Heaven Master Chou was unfazed and merely chuckled:

"Indeed, as age catches up, there are some things that truly become beyond one’s reach. Precisely because of that, this old man thought of the Nirvana Bone. If I could obtain it, I could reshape myself into a younger, more vigorous body."

At this, he paused, a glint of cruelty flashing in his eyes,

"What a pity that Leng Chaosong deliberately betrayed me, purposefully concealing the flaws of the Nirvana Bone, causing this old man’s efforts to fail and preventing my Nirvana."

"Still, this old man has always planned ahead. I intentionally let his daughter escape to see if that little girl might know some hidden truths."

Jiang Shouzhong suddenly understood, a glimmer of realization flashing in his eyes: "I see now. So you followed Leng Jing all the way here and stumbled upon the secret of the celestial cactus."

Heaven Master Chou nodded slightly, "That’s right. This time, this old man originally aimed to seize the celestial cactus to reshape the Nirvana Bone. But as it happens, luck wasn’t too bad—I unexpectedly came across such an excellent Tool Girl here."

"Honestly speaking, young man, this old man envies you greatly, you know."

"Look at you, surrounded by beauty of such outstanding caliber, and they all possess superior constitutions to boot..."

As he spoke, Heaven Master Chou’s gaze seemed to carry a hint of sinister allure:

"Young man, if you’re willing to take me as your master and learn the ’Yin Yang Divine Thistle Register’ I created, then you too could have hope of Ascension. Think about it carefully, this is a rare opportunity that many would kill for."

Jiang Shouzhong’s eyes burst with chilly light, an almost tangible killing intent spreading like wildfire: "Hah, I’m currently considering how to send you off to your coffin, old geezer."

Heaven Master Chou froze for a moment, then laughed aloud:

"Young man, to achieve Saintly Ascension at such a young age—such talent is truly rare in this world. However, that’s where your misfortune lies; today, you happened to encounter me. You, this so-called young genius... will meet your end here."

"Earlier, to keep Li Guanshi from detecting anything amiss, this old man deliberately employed methods to confuse her for a while. By the time she arrives, all she’ll see is your corpse."

"Hmph, I’d like to see if you truly have the skill for that."

Jiang Shouzhong’s face grew frostier, as he swung the Seven Kills Blade, imbued with a formidable momentum, slashing fiercely at Heaven Master Chou.

Clang!

A deafening sound reverberated across the surroundings, sparks flying everywhere.

The blade was stopped by an invisible force upon reaching Heaven Master Chou’s form, unable to advance another inch.

Glancing at Heaven Master Chou, a golden glow had unknowingly radiated across his entire body—a layer that resembled a divine armor. It was none other than the renowned Vajra Indestructible Body of the Buddhist Sect.

Jiang Shouzhong flicked his wrist, and the Jade Hairpin Flying Sword and Dragon Slaying Sword shot out instantly.

At the same time, the Yin Yang River Map Twin Swords streaked out like serpents emerging from their lair.

The four flying swords targeted different points on Heaven Master Chou’s body at immense speed, their overlapping shadows attempting to locate the vital point of the Vajra Indestructible Body.

Heaven Master Chou’s gaze shone brightly, filled with probing curiosity:

"Yin Yang River Map... Seven Kills Blade... Young man, you really are blessed with fortune far exceeding that of ordinary folk."

"Normally, someone like you with such deep fortune should also possess great destiny. But this old man senses none of it—has your destiny been taken by someone or something?"

Jiang Shouzhong’s expression remained frigid, his lips pressed tightly, ignoring Heaven Master Chou’s provocative questioning. Instead, he swung his Seven Kills Blade again, its light as sharp and piercing as before, threatening to rip apart the air.

This time, his assault was even fiercer than before.

The four flying swords, nimble like swimming fish, continued their relentless barrage against Heaven Master Chou.

Among them, the Yin Yang River Map Twin Swords, endowed with spiritual intelligence, finally pinpointed a vulnerability in Heaven Master Chou’s Vajra Indestructible Body after a barrage of ferocious attacks.

The flying swords, like sharks that smell blood, began unleashing their most savage onslaught.

Under the unyielding barrage of the Yin Yang River Map Twin Swords, the blinding golden glow around Heaven Master Chou’s body began fading significantly.

"As expected of the Taoist River Map swords, truly formidable."

Heaven Master Chou furrowed his brows slightly.

Before his words had fully settled, he suddenly lunged forward, his figure moving like lightning. In that instant, an immense force exploded outward, sending the four attacking flying swords hurtling away fiercely.

Immediately after, he struck forward with a palm, wind roaring across the battlefield as his blow barreled toward Jiang Shouzhong. His loud shout reverberated: "Since you’re so ignorant and ungrateful, don’t blame this old man for being ruthless—today, I’ll personally send you on your way!"
