Once Upon A Time, There Was A Spirit Sword Mountain - Chapter 827
In the two worlds passage, Wang Lu’s sudden change made Wang Wu a bit nervous.
“What’s the matter?”
Wang Lu was silent for a while and then, with a deep voice, he said, “Something happened in Nine Regions, the names on the book of life and death are disappearing at an alarming speed.”
“The book of life and death? The one that monitors cultivators all over the continent? Do you really use it? And it works here?” Wang Wu was a bit surprised, and then her face sank, “A large number of people disappeared? Is there a second possibility?”
Wang Lu fell silent. After a while, he shook his head and said, “I hope there are other possibilities, such as the re-blocking of the space barrier between the two-worlds passage and the Nine Regions, so that the book of life and death is invalidated… But unfortunately, that’s not possible. There’s only one possibility for the name on the book of life and death to change, that is, this Immortal Treasure has contacted the Nine Regions and received the change of information. And the direct disappearance of the names of many people will only mean one thing.”
“The Immortal World launched its main attack?”
“Perhaps, but it stands to reason that the Immortal World should not make their move so quickly. They have always been very cautious about their actions in the Nine Regions. When I sent the Gate of All Realms into the Immortal World and detonated it, I vaguely felt that the Immortal King had fallen into a scheme and was hurt. Before he could recover his injury, the Immortal World should not act so rashly. Could it be that I underestimated the overall strength of the Immortal World and the severity of the situation in the Immortal World…” At this point, Wang Lu clenched his fists, “This time, being trapped in this two-worlds passage is really a mistake!”

Wang Wu shook her head and said, “There’s no point in blaming yourself too much right now. At that time, in that situation, no one can say that your choice was wrong. If you have to put the blame on someone, then you can only blame Yanluo for being too cunning…”
Before she could finish her words, Wang Wu found that her consolation was meaningless, because Wang Lu did not pay attention to what she was saying. Wang Lu was very shaken and far less calm than usual.
Of course, this was not difficult to understand. In order to increase the synchronization rate with the giant Divine Weapon, his moods had fluctuated repeatedly. His Immortal Heart was really unstable and very easy to be shaken by external influence. Not to mention that this situation is of special significance to him. More than two hundred years ago, he was also the sole main pillar that supported everyone, and at that time, he watched his fellow brothers and sisters die one by one. It was hard to imagine how a person could endure the same torture twice.
When she thought of this, Wang Wu felt a slight pain in her heart. Seeing Wang Lu in pain like that, she felt that she needed to do something… No matter how many absurd things Wang Lu had done to her these past few days, at least in this life she was his Master and she ought to shelter him from wind and rain. Of course, no one could resist the current turbulent and dangerous waves, but at least, she should stand behind him and provide gentle care.
“But, I have no clue about being gentle and caring. Have I ever been gentle in my life? It’s hard for me to suddenly do such a thing… Forget it, I’m just going to use my imagination.”
Thus, Wang Wu, full of contemplation, disappeared into the darkness of the two-worlds passage.
Wang Lu himself had no idea about this. He just stared at the book of life and death intensely. He looked at the names of people who disappeared quickly, and tried to deduce the truth in his mind.”
What kind of war could make Nine Regions pay such a tragic price in an instant? Even if it was a total war against the Immortal World, was it possible that a place as large as Nine Region did not even have a little room for strategic depth? And why did people disappear so evenly? The cultivators of different regiments in different regions were dying out at almost the same speed, which meant that not only the Immortal World launched an all-out war, but Nine Regions also mobilized all of their forces to meet the enemy in a frontal battle.
But this was not logical. Any sane person would not fight the Immortal World head-on. Once the Immortal World came, the first thing to do was to evacuate everyone… And then?”
Wang Lu let out a wry smile. If he was someone in Nine Regions, he would probably still be helpless. The comprehensive strength was inferior to that of others and the only person that could reverse the situation was stuck in the sky. How could the situation be broken? Could it?
However, just as beginning to get frustrated, the speed of the disappearance of names in the book of life and death slowed down a lot. Judged from the change in those names, the battle situation should have undergone a favorable change–The mainstays cultivators finally stopped sacrificing and was replaced with cannon fodders. At this point, the Nine Regions finally took back control of the situation.
Wang Lu took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and applied the deduction technique to the extreme. A white smoke suddenly appeared on his head while in his mind, a panoramic picture of the Nine Regions gradually emerged.
Although many details were still obscure, Wang Lu had been able to grasp the changes in the battle situation. After a fierce battle, Nine Regions began to retreat in an orderly manner, while the Immortal World obviously failed to catch up with them. Or perhaps they managed to catch up slightly and had a bit of a violent head-on clash.
It should be Supreme Hetu who presided over the Dead to Immortal Sword Array, which was the most powerful attack method in Nine Regions at present. Extinguish Immortal Sword, Trap Immortal Sword, and Kill Immortal Sword should be held by Xiang Liang, Zhan Ziye, and Qiong Hua respectively. When they piloted the test machines, their combat ability was comparable to that of Supreme. And under the blessing of the Death to Immortal Sword Array and Nine Regions Great Array, they were unstoppable.
In addition, it was the Western Continent army led by Aya that covered the retreat of the main army. These reinforcements from another continent were not registered in the book of life and death, but Aya’s name was put in a prominent position by Wang Lu. Since the beginning of the retreat just now, Aya’s name had been shaking like a fallen leaf in the wind and rain. However, after many twists and turns, she finally stubbornly left a thick ink mark on the book of life and death. It was only through the arduous process that one could see how dangerous the situation was just now.
Aya had always held firm from the start to finish. At the beginning of the battle, she didn’t give her utmost, but in the retreat, she gave out her best. And as the cover, she was obviously under great pressure. Since Aya was like this, Golden King obviously didn’t just stand idly by and watch–Now it could be said that both he and the Nine Regions were in the same situation.
Then, the Zaku army was completely dispersed and incorporated into different legions. In order to use the Zaku army in a united formation, several key items needed were still on Wang Lu. When they were separated, it should be the Golden King who was responsible for the specific command, because many different functions of Zaku should be used separately to play a core role in each team. After the death of Kuqin, almost no one in Nine Regions could have this qualification. Even if few people were more than capable, their prestige was not enough to convince the public. Only the Golden King, the arrogant and haughty leader of Western Continent, could rely on his unreasonably terrifying command ability to control everything.
Aya once mentioned in her letter that when she played military chess with Golden King in the Western Continent, in ten games, she lost ten times. The relationship between victory and defeat seemed to have deviated from the normal causal logic, and the result was that she was doomed to defeat at the beginning of the match.
And this gap ability was the gap between Aya, the King of Brettonia, and Golden King, the sovereign of the Western Continent. The reinforcement of Golden King was indeed a stroke of magic.
When he inferred to this point, Wang Lu suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, and the picture of the battle situation in his mind could not help but disappear. This was the result of a huge overdraft of computing power, which meant that it was difficult to resume deduction in a short period of time.
However, there is no need for him to exert himself to deduce anything. Judging from the current situation, Nine Regions had not fallen into the worst situation. Although the casualties were heavy, it could be categorized as just bones and muscles. The foundation was still there, and they still have the capital to continue the fight with the Immortal World.
Of course, after this battle, the situation in Nine Regions became more and more urgent. If Wang Lu could not break the space barrier and return to Nine Regions as soon as possible… Perhaps he would never have to go back.
When he thought of this, he became a bit upset. At this time, he suddenly heard Wang Wu’s voice behind him.
“Little Lu, stop worrying about it. Come on, I’ve found something for you to relieve your boredom. Let’s have a little fun and calm down.”
Wang Lu couldn’t help but laugh at that. He thought: This person was truly broad-minded. At this time she was still able to be as carefree as a bird… Of course, that pure smile of hers was the goal of his unremitting effort in his two lives.
However, when Wang Lu turned around and looked at Wang Wu and the ‘toy’ in her hands, his face suddenly sank.
“Are you kidding me?”
Wang Wu was a bit surprised and said, “Why did you say that?”
“What’s that in your hands?”
“Yanluo’s corpse. At that time, didn’t you say you want to dig a hole and bury it? I’ve just dug it out. Look, it’s still fresh. The soft parts are still soft, while the hard parts are hard. It’s indeed the body of an Immortal. Even the smell is quite fragrant.”
“What the hell? Why did you lick it without any purpose? I’m asking you what’re you doing with this thing?”
Wang Wu looked puzzled, “What else can I do? I’ll whip the corpse for you.”
“Whip? Whip the corpse to vent out my anger? When did I say I want to do this kind of thing?”
“Why not? Even thinking with my knees I can tell that you’re in a bad mood now, just like a patient with long-term constipation. Even normal thinking ability is beginning to be affected. So, I’ll help you with psychological counseling… Hehehe, am I not especially gentle and considerate?” Wang Wu smiled and shrugged. She didn’t see the widening of Wang Lu’s eyes and threw Yanluo’s corpse to the ground. She said, “Play with it, and as soon as you’re tired of it, we’ll go back to normal. We don’t have much time. We have to go back to Nine Regions as soon as possible.”
“… What’s the point of playing with this thing apart from making me a complete pervert?”
Wang Wu said with a smile, “How can you ask such a stupid question? How can you not know that the more abnormal a person is, the stronger he is?”
Wang Lu looked at the woman in white in front of him and thought that she was right. At least, she was an excellent example of such a thing.
On the other hand, he was indeed slightly moved by her words.
Corpse abuse… Although it was indeed very tasteless and disgusting, Sun Buping might not have done so before. If it was for the synchronization rate… Perhaps he could give it a try?
