Transmigration After Becoming Love Saint

Chapter 736 - 232: Kneel Before Me!

The moment the voice appeared, Wang Mu was startled. Piao Miaoxu?

Well, it seems someone really showed up.

Ever since he obtained the Wuji Treasure Book, Wang Mu knew this being was bound to wait for an opportunity to strike.

She wasn’t likely to be so kind-hearted as to actually provide him with Demon Skill to aid in his cultivation... There must be a scheme in play. Moreover, she would definitely find a suitable moment to cause a commotion.

Before this trip, Wang Mu had anticipated that Piao Miaoxu might appear, though he wasn’t sure when.

After all, with myself having deteriorated to such a frail and weak state, Piao Miaoxu would certainly not miss such a rare opportunity. So, bringing the Immortal Cloud Kun was also a form of insurance. Otherwise, Wang Mu wouldn’t have been so diligently fishing for this being to eat along the way. Although he possessed Essence Blood, relying on that to coerce the Immortal Cloud Kun, given its nature, might not be as effective as just feeding it fish.

He looked up at Shuo Wuji in the sky and the Residual Soul in the darkness.

During the last encounter at the Dark Border, Piao Miaoxu’s Residual Soul had cultivated using the methods of the Dark Alien Race. The Divine Sense could not detect the Dark Alien Race. Almost no cultivator in this place could sense this thread of Piao Miaoxu’s Residual Soul. Wang Mu sensed it, not by Divine Sense, but through the kind of experience and understanding gained from countless boss battles. Moreover, since Shuo Wuji had come... she must have come as well.

Wang Mu patted the head of the Immortal Cloud Kun. Merely a Shuo Wuji... After eating so many of my fish, it’s time to put it to use.

「In the void.」

"Who goes there!"

The sudden change, especially the drastic alteration of the restrictions outside the reservoir, made the cultivators from the Three Sects guarding the place light up with a dazzling glow, flying in from all directions like fireworks.

The expression of the elderly man solidified. "Who are you?"

Shuo Wuji flicked his sleeve gently. "Scram!"

A massive surge of power swept over the reservoir like the remnants of storm clouds, enveloping it in an instant. The towering Demonic Qi surged tumultuously, rolling like the sea.

Wang Mu squinted. Infinite Demon Body!

Shuo Wuji had achieved the status of a Demon Lord by also cultivating the Infinite Demon Body. However, his cultivation Realm was clearly much higher than Wang’s.

In an instant, the cultivators below Divinity Transformation turned pale, their bodies locked as if sealed, losing all Spiritual Power. The violently swirling air currents instantly swept all present cultivators away. One by one, they dropped into the reservoir like dumplings in water.

Only Wang Mu, sitting upon the Immortal Cloud Kun in mid-air, remained motionless.

"Crossing Tribulation?"

"Peak Crossing Tribulation?"

"What’s going on? Who dares to attack a reservoir contracted by the Three Sects?"

"Such a terrifying presence... this person’s Demonic Qi is overwhelming... wait, could this be that Demon Lord from Yuanhai Hall?"

"This is Shuo Wuji, resurrected by the Piaomiao Holy Master!"

Those cultivators present who had the knowledge and experience recognized him right away.

There aren’t many Tribulation Crossing Cultivators throughout the Nine Provinces. Moreover, some of those cultivators are extraordinary. If the legendary Demon Lord who founded Yuanhai Hall, leading a great boom in the Demon Path, had not perished back then, he would have at least reached Ascension by now. As for the Piaomiao Holy Master, who was able to resurrect Shuo Wuji, she was naturally an even more mysterious Great Demon. Even fewer people knew about her. Issues concerning the Eight Desolate Netherworld are even less known.

Piao Miaoxu, such a Great Demon, loved nothing more than quietly manipulating events, dramatically shifting the world’s situation to instantly determine the fate of many. If things in the Eight Desolate Netherworld had succeeded, the Nine Provinces would have changed by now. Since it hasn’t changed, this Great Demon hadn’t quite entered the wider view of the Nine Provinces. However, being able to resurrect Shuo Wuji was shocking enough to any cultivator.

Wang Mu calmly watched the scene unfolding before him, patted the Immortal Cloud Kun, and slowly flew into the sky.

"Dongfang Mu... have you really turned out like this?" Shuo Wuji withdrew his hand, staring at the man before him, stunned for a long time.

To be honest, when he entered, his Divine Sense scanned around and he didn’t notice who Dongfang Mu was... not until he made his move just now...

...Is this really Dongfang Mu? How did he age so much?

Shuo Wuji stared for a long while, finally understanding what the Holy Master meant by frail.

But... isn’t this too exaggerated? This is no longer just frail; this is nearly at death’s door!

Shuo Wuji couldn’t imagine how Dongfang Mu, who, backed by a Shadow Hong Saber in the Dark Border, displayed great Divine Power and stepped into Nascent Soul within just over a decade, could have degenerated so much in such a short time.

Piao Miaoxu was also startled. She really hadn’t expected this. She could only sense changes in the Demon Body but couldn’t perceive the specific circumstances. Although she knew that Dongfang Mu would be weak at this time, she hadn’t expected... him to be this weak?

For a moment, Piao Miaoxu fell silent. Her heart even bore a slight melancholic sentiment and a kind of triumphant satisfaction, as if the tide had turned.

Piao Miaoxu burst into laughter. "HAHAHAHA..."

Unfortunately, being just a Residual Soul, only a few cultivators could hear her laughter.

"Dongfang Mu, Dongfang Mu!" Piao Miaoxu laughed nonstop. "I honestly didn’t expect you to have such a day! In just one year, relying on Mu Hongyuan’s Emotion Poison, you cultivated the Infinite Demon Body, and your talent is even more terrifying than it was back then!"

"Fate, this is fate!"

"Unfortunately, a thousand years ago you were destined; a thousand years later, you are not!"

"Before coming here, I thought you might really, as he said, be pretending to attract me here, but I didn’t expect..."
