Chapter 1093: Old Grudges

"Grateful? Yes, I do have to thank you. If you hadn't banished me to the void of the universe and almost killed me there, I wouldn't be who I am today!"

hum!
The sword shadow behind him shook, and burst out with a sword intent that could cut through everything. The sword intent was so strong that even Ling Zun, the Daluo Jinxian, felt a little scared.

The Golden Immortal's mind and blood perception is so powerful that the sword intent emanating from the sword shadow behind Luo Xiu cannot be simply measured by the realm of cultivation. That terrifying sword intent has long exceeded the scope of the realm of cultivation.

Ling Zun sensed the breath of death from this sword intent.

"Where did this little bastard learn the sword art? This sword intent actually makes me feel cold all over!"

Ling Zun has always been conceited. He has not been practicing for a very long time. Compared with other Daluo Jinxian, the time he took to practice to Daluo Jinxian is much shorter.

This was also what he was always proud of, not to mention that he was one of the best alchemy masters in the Muhuang World. Not long after he achieved the Golden Immortal of Daluo, he refined an extremely precious Eight-Turn Daluo Immortal Pill in one fell swoop, which caused a huge sensation. The Eight-Turn Daluo Immortal Pill he refined at the beginning caused countless Daluo immortals and gods to scramble for it in the Tianshi Xingyuan, just because this pill could increase the chances of achieving the Golden Immortal of Daluo.

Eventually, this elixir was obtained by the Three-legged Golden Crow clan, but the price was that the Three-legged Golden Crow had to use up three middle thousand worlds to obtain it.

It can be said that Ling Zun is also a well-known figure in the universe, while Luo Xiu on the opposite side was just a weed incarnated from the Wood Emperor World. His aptitude for cultivation was extremely poor. There were many cultivators like Luo Xiu who were incarnated from weeds in the Wood Emperor World. They were countless and had no future in their entire lives. The most he had was noticed by an immortal god, who helped take care of the spiritual herbs and precious medicines.

This is the case with Luo Xiu. He was considered a hard-working person in the beginning, but unfortunately due to his limited aptitude, he had no hope of practicing. Later, he turned to cultivating the ability to take care of the spiritual herbs and precious medicines. Ling Zun noticed this and asked Luo Xiu's original master for him to help Ling Zun take care of the spiritual herbs and precious medicines.

At the beginning, Luo Xiu worked diligently and cultivated many precious medicines with strong medicinal properties for Ling Zun. After many years, Ling Zun saw his loyalty and asked him to take care of an acquired spiritual root that he had obtained with great difficulty.

That acquired spiritual root was prepared by Ling Zun to refine the Nine-Revolution Immortal Pill. He prepared for it for a long time, but he ultimately underestimated human nature.

Luo Xiu has worked diligently for so many years, but he has never given up practicing and has never given up the desire to become an immortal. Ling Zun's acquired spiritual root gave him a chance to reach the sky in one step.

All the creatures in the Wood Emperor World are transformed from flowers, plants and trees, so Luo Xiu, who was transformed from a weed, has low aptitude. But that acquired spiritual root is different. It is an extremely precious spiritual root. If this spiritual root is transformed and he embarks on the path of cultivation, becoming an immortal will be a piece of cake.

Luo Xiu considered for a long time and finally made up his mind. He boldly used a secret method to plunder the essence of the spiritual root, allowing himself to be reborn, from a weed to an acquired spiritual root.

After committing such a disaster, Luo Xiu naturally would not stay there and wait for death. He simply found an excuse to run away. Unfortunately, he did not understand the terrifying nature of the Daluo Jinxian. Facing Ling Zun, this Daluo Jinxian, he could not escape at all and was easily captured by Ling Zun.

The Spirit Lord was naturally furious when he saw that the acquired spiritual root that he was going to use to refine the Nine-Transformation Immortal Pill was destroyed. Not only did he torture Luo Xiu cruelly, he also took out the essence that he had plundered from Luo Xiu's acquired spiritual root, making all of Luo Xiu's plans come to nothing.

Moreover, because of Ling Zun's methods, Luo Xiu's path of cultivation was completely cut off. From then on, he had no hope of practicing anymore and became a useless person.

The matter should have ended here, and Ling Zun would have just waved his hand to kill Luo Xiu. However, Ling Zun wanted to give a warning to his men. He merged Luo Xiu, who had returned to his original form, with a piece of stubborn stone, let his roots take root inside the stubborn stone, and then exiled the stubborn stone outside the Wood Emperor World.

If it were a human cultivator, this kind of punishment would simply make him happy to death, as it was equivalent to transcending the universe. But for the creatures of the Wood King World that were transformed from flowers, plants, and trees, this was an extremely vicious punishment. Their roots merged with the stubborn stones and could not absorb any nutrients. They were in the void outside the world and could not absorb any spiritual energy either. Because of the Spiritual Venerable's means, Luo Xiu could not even touch the essence of the stars.

He could only stare blankly at the prosperity inside the Wood Emperor's world before him. For creatures transformed from plants, there was no more terrible punishment than this.

As time passed, Ling Zun slowly forgot about Luo Xiu's existence, until one day Luo Xiu suddenly disappeared without a trace outside the world, which made him remember him again.

At first he thought that Luo Xiu had run away. He used the numbers to calculate, but got nothing. He only got a vague result and had no idea of ​​Luo Xiu's whereabouts.

After several times, Ling Zun put the matter behind him. To him, it was just a trivial matter and not worth remembering.

Who would have thought that today on the way to Tianshi Xingyuan, he would meet Luo Xiu again, and the Luo Xiu in front of him had mastered the incredible way of swordsmanship, which made even him, a Daluo Jinxian, feel threatened.

"How arrogant! Do you think you can challenge me just because you have learned some tricks? You little bastard, I should have burned you to ashes back then!"

Ling Zun felt a little embarrassed when he saw the giant star beast being split in half in front of countless powerful beings from all over the heavens and worlds. What's more, Luo Xiu in front of him was just a servant whom he could order around at will.

"It's too late, Ling Zun, did you ever think this day would come? I have lived for so many years just for revenge. The entire Wood Emperor World deserves to die, especially you! Master told me that the way of the sword is the way of pleasure. Only when the mind is free from attachment can there be endless breakthroughs. I will cut off this knot in your heart with my own hands!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Xiu swung the bronze divine sword in his hand, and with a roar, he chopped towards Ling Zun.

"court death!"

In the eyes of Ling Zun, this Luo Xiu did not have any cultivation to speak of, and he did not know what path of cultivation he was taking. It was neither the path of immortals, nor the path of gods and demons, nor the path of achieving enlightenment in the flesh.

To be precise, this Luo Xiu has no cultivation at all, but he can roam freely in the void of the universe, split a giant star beast in half with one sword, and kill countless immortals and gods.

Not only Ling Zun couldn't tell, but even the powerful people watching nearby couldn't tell what kind of cultivation path Luo Xiu was taking. He only displayed his terrifying sword skills and nothing else.

Shi Zu and Tian Cang had solemn expressions on their faces. They both knew who the master Luo Xiu was referring to, the one who was known as the forbidden Wan Wuyi.

Few people know Wan Wuyi's name, but most of the Daluo Jinxian with profound cultivation, or the Daluo Jinxian with the support of the previous universe era, know the name of this taboo.

Ling Zun was naturally no exception. He had already made some guesses, but he still had a sense of luck and did not think that Luo Xiu was so lucky to become a perfect disciple.

For an existence like Wan Wuyu who was invincible in the previous cosmic era, is it so easy to become his successor in swordsmanship?
