Chapter 511: What a tragedy
Translator: GodBrandy Editor: Kurisu
The red-haired Spiritual Emperor was waiting for Song Shuhang to hand over the treasure just to seriously injure him afterward.
At the time, the seriously injured Song Shuhang would become a drag for the seemingly respected 'Senior Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue', giving the red-haired Spiritual Emperor the opportunity to flee.
"The treasure on my body capable of attracting the Soul Devouring Demonic Gourd?" Song Shuhang pondered for a moment and said honestly, "Would you believe me if I were to say that I don't have such a treasure with me?"
What Song Shuhang said was the truth, but sometimes, no one would believe it.
"Kid, my patience is limited." The red-haired Spiritual Emperor stroked the hacking blade and said coldly, "I'll give you another opportunity. But if you still refuse to hand over the treasure, don't blame me for being heartless!"
A person had four limbs… therefore, he could give Song Shuhang a total of four opportunities to reply. Actually, perhaps he could give him five opportunities since he was a man.
Song Shuhang furrowed his brows and pondered. If there was something on his body that was related to the disposable flying sword, it was probably Venerable White's Ten Thousand Mile Flying Escape Technique since they were manufactured from the same person.
Should I give the small wooden box with the Ten Thousand Mile Flying Escape Technique inside to the opposite party?
Venerable White's exploration team had temporarily come out of the ancient ruins and was recuperating from the injuries.
If the red-haired Spiritual Emperor activated the Ten Thousand Mile Flying Escape Technique just to fly to Venerable White's side, it would be quite an interesting turn of events, wouldn't it?
But it wasn't a good thing to do. After all, the Ten Thousand Mile Flying Escape Technique was Song Shuhang's trump card to maintain his life, as well as the only way he had to leave space and return home. If he were to hand it over, he would have a lot of trouble returning home one month later.
Just as Song Shuhang was in deep thoughts, the red-haired Spiritual Emperor suddenly froze!
Soon after, he looked outside the spherical barrier-type magical treasure with an excited expression on his face.
The red-haired Spiritual Emperor had also entered the spherical magical treasure in order to interrogate Song Shuhang.
And it was precisely because he was inside the magical treasure that he was able to hear Song Shuhang's phone ringing, as well as Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue's voice when the speakerphone was on.
As for Yu Jiaojiao, she was able to hear the ring phone because she was inside the safety helmet of the spacesuit.
❄️❄️❄️
At this time, the red-haired Spiritual Emperor noticed that there was a sword light flying at high speed outside the magical treasure.
The sword light was the same sword light that was carrying the Soul Devouring Demonic Gourd earlier!
The aura was the same, there was no mistake about it!
He had been searching high and low for something just to find it when least he expected it.
The red-haired Spiritual Emperor laughed wildly and said, "Even the heavens are helping me!"
The brat said that he didn't have any treasure that could attract the sword light, but now, the sword light had come over on its own!
In the end, the treasure would finally fall into his hands. Since the Soul Devouring Demonic Gourd was delivering itself at his doorstep, he would gladly accept it.
On the other hand… where did that group of cultivators that was chasing after the Soul Devouring Demonic Gourd go? Was the sword light able to cast them off?
'It's not the time to think about this trivial matters. The most important thing to do right now is to intercept the sword light.' The silhouette of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor flashed and appeared outside the magical treasure.
At the same time, the Golden Core inside his body shone.
It was a Golden Core with four dragon patterns, an average one amongst the ones cultivators could have.
The energy of the Golden Core gathered and turned into four mysterious lights of different colors that materialized above the head of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor. The number of these colored mysterious lights was the same as the number of the dragon patterns on his Golden Core.
The mysterious lights above the heads of Golden Core cultivators weren't there only for show. Each colored light could increase the strength of the magical techniques and attacks of the owner by 10%. As a consequence, four mysterious lights could increase the strength of the attacks of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor by 40%.
The red-haired Spiritual Emperor prepared to get into action.
"No wonder all the immortals in legends had mysterious lights above their heads. Is this the reason?" Song Shuhang muttered to himself while inside the magical treasure.
At the same time, he also shot a glance at the approaching sword light.
Was the disposable flying sword really attracted to him, and did it come here for that reason? If that was really the case, the disposable flying sword might be the key to get out of this situation.
❄️❄️❄️
Outside the barrier, the red-haired Spiritual Emperor formed a seal with his hands.
His eyes were carefully looking at the approaching sword light. At the same time, he was calculating in his mind the distance between them.
In the instant the sword light entered within a range of one kilometer, the eyes of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor lit up. 'Now is the time!'
He opened his mouth and spat four rings of fire toward the sword light in rapid succession.
The four rings of fire had sealing properties. Just like the old man from before, the red-haired Spiritual Emperor wanted to seal the flying sword to reduce its speed. Afterward, he would quietly retrieve the treasure above.
The rings of fire covered the sword light without fail.
After it was sealed, the speed of the sword light decreased by ten or so times and the light it was emitting also became dimmer, faintly revealing the shape of the treasure it was carrying. However, that treasure wasn't really looking like a gourd...
But the red-haired Spiritual Emperor didn't think too much about it.
"It's a success!" The red-haired Spiritual Emperor was delighted. His body moved and quickly shot toward the position of the sword light.
But right at this moment, a stream of sword qi exploded from the sword light.
The four rings of fire blocking the flying sword were immediately smashed to pieces!
The red-haired Spiritual Emperor quickly stopped, and his heart trembled. The four rings of fire were the strongest sealing technique at his disposal. Unexpectedly, they weren't able to hold back the flying sword for even a second before getting torn to pieces.
What was the rank of the attack unleashed by the sword light?!
However, the treasure was right before his eyes, and he couldn't give it up.
"I really want to see how many streams of sword qi can this sword light release," the red-haired Spiritual Emperor said with clenched teeth. The four mysterious lights above his head shone once more. Then, he formed another seal with his hands and used the fire ring sealing technique again.
This time, he activated a diamond ring as well, using it in conjunction with the fire ring sealing technique.
The diamond ring and the fire ring sealing technique flew out together!
The disposable flying sword was randomly flying in space, without anyone controlling it. Therefore, the seals of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor were able to easily block it once more.
The four rings of fire blocked the sword light.
The diamond ring also tightly restrained it.
Under the effects of the two seals, the speed of the sword light sharply fell.
The red-haired Spiritual Emperor immediately seized the opportunity and dashed in the direction of the sword light. He only had to wait for the diamond and fire rings to take effect and retrieve the Soul Devouring Demonic Gourd while the sword light was sealed.
The spiritual energy on the diamond and fire rings surged, starting the sealing process.
The sword light quickly dimmed.
"Ahaha, the Soul Devouring Demonic Gourd is finally mine!" The red-haired Spiritual Emperor stretched his hand out, preparing to seize the treasure on the sword light.
But right at this time, he discovered that there was something wrong. "Eh?"
Earlier, he was unable to see clearly the object above the sword light due to the dazzling light it was emitting. He could only see the indistinct shape of the 'treasure'.
But after the sword light was sealed, he saw the treasure above clearly… it wasn't the Soul Devouring Demonic Gourd but was instead one of those 1.5 ton air conditioners for domestic use!
Was I tricked?
Why is there an air conditioner on the sword light? Where is the Soul Devouring Demonic Gourd?
Just what is happening?
Dammit, is it possible that it's a different sword light?
"No wonder no one was chasing after the sword light… there is actually more than one sword light roaming in space, dammit!" The red-haired Spiritual Emperor understood what had happened.
But why is there an air conditioner on the sword light?
Isn't this the same as making fun of others?
Who was so bored to send an air conditioner for domestic use into space?
Was it a gift for aliens or something?
Wait a moment, the air conditioner seems charred black...
This goddamn conditioner is even broken!
F*ck, f*ck!
Additionally, the red-haired Spiritual Emperor finally saw the true body of the sword light… it was a very ordinary wooden sword, the type that had been carved without too much thought.
But how could a mere wooden sword be so powerful and break his seals so easily?
Just how strong was the cultivator that manufactured it that the wooden sword ended up producing such results?
Just as the red-haired Spiritual Emperor was lost in thoughts, the body of the wooden sword lit up once again.
In the next moment, the rings of fire binding its body started to crumble.
"Not good!" The red-haired Spiritual Emperor had a bad premonition. He formed a seal with his hands and prepared to take the diamond seal and get away.
But the sword qi was more terrifying than what he thought.
0.0001 seconds after the rings of fire were broken, his diamond ring magical treasure was likewise smashed to pieces by the sword qi.
As you can well imagine, the heart of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor was in extreme pain. He had just lost a very valuable sealing-type magical treasure!
Not only he was unable to get the gourd, but he even lost the diamond ring, suffering a great loss.
However, it wasn't the time to cry over spilled milk… the sword qi exploded, and the sword intent that burst forth was terrifying.
At this time, his body happened to be within the range of the sword qi.
"Dammit! Aaaah!" the red-haired Spiritual Emperor roared again and again, and the four-colored mysterious lights above his head also shone continuously. He instantaneously created dozens of defensive barriers to protect himself and tried to get away as soon as possible.
But even so, the attack of the wooden sword still left three deep wounds that reached the bones in his body.
Blood flowed out and changed into drops that hovered in the void.
❄️❄️❄️
After the wooden sword released the sword qi, its body changed into a sword light once more.
Under the gloomy stare of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor, the wooden sword leisurely headed in Song Shuhang's direction.
"It's really coming toward me," Song Shuhang muttered to himself.
After disassembling and carelessly ruining the air conditioner, Venerable White must have decided to dispose of it by sending it to space with the disposable flying sword 004 edition...
As the flying sword rushed forward, it bumped into the barrier-type magical treasure surrounding Song Shuhang.
"Riiip!"
The precious spherical barrier-type magical treasure of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor was also smashed to pieces!
Afterward, the disposable flying sword stopped and calmly hovered next to Song Shuhang's body.
Song Shuhang stretched out his hand and tried to grab the disposable flying sword. The sword qi on the wooden sword wasn't trying to injure him.
The mysterious flying sword Senior White manufactured could even recognize people.
But Song Shuhang didn't have the time to think about these trivial matters, he grabbed the space capsule and turned over his body, jumping on the disposable flying sword.
What better opportunity to run than this?
"Go!" Song Shuhang pointed toward a distant place and shouted.
"Brat, stop immediately!" The roar of the red-haired Spiritual Emperor was transmitted from the rear.
He had already lost two valuable magical treasures, and now, this brat wanted to ride the strange wooden sword and run away. He had to seize that treasure on Song Shuhang's body capable of attracting these sword lights at all costs.
The red-haired Spiritual Emperor roared and started chasing after Song Shuhang.
"Go, go, go!" Song Shuhang shouted.
But there was a problem...
It seemed that the disposable flying sword 004 edition had no intention of moving now that it had stopped. It felt as though arriving next to Song Shuhang's body was its final objective.
"..." Song Shuhang.
Song Shuhang turned his head around and shot a glance at the red-haired Spiritual Emperor that was quickly coming over.
What a tragedy...
