Transcending the Nine Heavens

The newly appointed third brother Ji Mo fell to the ground with his legs twitching. His swollen face like that of a pig… However, he still continued to keep up appearances as he splayed himself onto the ground as he said, "Luo Ke Di and Rui Bu Tong, hurry over here and massage third brother… Oooh… this bastard's moves are so cruel…"

At the same time, big brother Chu was finally done with his cultivation and stood up. The moment he saw what was going on, he was stunned momentarily. He then asked, "This… What happened?"

All he saw was Luo Ke Di tightly holding onto his cloak. At the waist, there was a sash fashioned from vines. At the bottom where the cloak ended, two white legs peeked out. He appeared no different from a peasant who was about to go into the mountains to gather wood.

On the other hand, Ji Mo's face was red and purple all over. Despite the bruises which covered his body, he was smiling with joy…

After looking at everything in front of him, even the superior intellect of Minister Chu was unable to decipher what had just happened.

"Ji Mo broke through… and successfully sat on Dong Wu Shang's head…" Gu Du Xing was also lost for words and did not know how to explain it correctly.

"F*!" Chu Yang was also surprised. He scratched his head and asked, "How could it be Ji Mo?"

The past few days, it had been clearly visible that while all of them showed signs of possible breakthroughs, the one which was most obvious was Dong Wu Shang. How could the world have turned up-side-down in the blink of an eye…

"Why can't it be me?" Although Ji Mo's entire body was covered in bruises and sore from the beating session, he jumped up the moment that he heard Chu Yang say those words. He was about to fiercely protect the position which he had by good fortune managed to attain. "Big brother, what do you mean? Can't I be third brother? But big brother, you said that we would be ranked based on the order of our breakthroughs. You cannot take back your words!"

Currently, Ji Mo was calling Chu Yang big brother, trying to flatter him so that he wouldn't take the position of third brother away from him.

"Alright, alright." Chu Yang nodded. He turned his head and looked at Dong Wu Shang. Second young master Dong's mouth was crooked and showed a smile looked uglier than a crying face…

Upon seeing Chu Yang look in his direction, Dong Wu Shang was speechless. All he wanted to do at that point was to cry and lament over his misfortune…

"I see…" Chu Yang continually nodded, "This learning session is how you brothers welcome third brother, right?"

"If I am able to keep this third brother position, I am willing to be painted full of color every single day!" Ji Mo stuck his face up haughtily. He had proven his determination to hold onto this position with an attitude of resilience even though it could cost him his life!

"You are something!" Chu Yang had given up on this guy and gave him a thumbs up.

"Okay. What about Coyote?" Chu Yang scratched his head, "Is it very hot?" He looked up at the snow that had been falling for the past three days; it was indeed winter.

"Yes, yes." Luo Ke Di laughed excessively and unexpectedly fanned himself with the hem of his cloak, "It's nothing; it's just so hot…"

"Big brother, you aren't aware of this but earlier, Luo Ke Di pulled out both his whips to fight Dong Wu Shang! They had already decided to get married as well!" Rui Bu Tong reported as if he was worried that things would not be chaotic enough…

After hearing about all the things that happened during his meditation, Chu Yang felt as if his brain had short-circuited. His mouth twitched for a moment and unable to control his laughter, he clutched his stomach and burst out laughing.

After Chu Yang laughed, everyone glanced at each other and began laughing despite whether they were full of pink and purple blooms or butt naked.

After laughing for a while, Dong Wu Shang let out a sigh and said, "Yes, from now on, you are third brother! Today will serve not only as a lesson for me but also as an experience. Nothing should be delayed! If you have a goal, you have to use all of your strength and ability to achieve it first! Even if you are confident, it is not a reality until it actually happens!"

"Exactly! The remaining three of you should pay attention. Even though you are all on the verge of breaking through and are confident that it will happen within the next nine days, anything unexpected could happen. Before it happens, nothing is certain!" Chu Yang said casually, "Therefore, among the three of you, some of you might stay and others might… have to leave! Dong Wu Shang has learned this today; let it also be a lesson for all of you!"

Chu Yang paused a little then said solemnly, "What happened today might seem unexpected, but, in life, there are many unexpected things. Regardless of whether it is a breakthrough, cultivation, fighting, trade, or seizing power… all things are uncertain! I shall leave you with this: Before the food is in your stomach, it is still not considered as your food!"

After Chu Yang finished talking, everyone, including Gu Du Xing, became pensive. It was especially true with Luo Ke Di, Rui Bu Tong, and Dong Wu Shang who suddenly felt this great sense of urgency!

"Good! Good! Good!" Someone suddenly laughed, "Before the food is in your stomach, it is still not your food! I cannot believe that I would hear words like these on this trip to Lower Three Heavens. I am pleasantly surprised!"

The moment the voice was heard, Gu Du Xing and Dong Wu Shang both turned pale!

Although the two of them had the highest cultivation in the entire group, they were unable to believe that they did not discover someone hiding nearby! Moreover, even when they heard the voice, they were unable to make out where the voice was coming from!

That ethereal voice seemed to come from all directions! Moreover, it seemed to be right next to their ears and yet soft at the same time. They didn't feel the volume of the voice to be deafening and intimidating at all, in fact, it made them feel relaxed and calm.

Chu Yang's brows perked lightly, and he asked in a low voice, "May I ask which senior is staying here?"

"Haha… I am not staying here… I just happened to pass by." That person let out a faint laugh. Immediately after, at a distance far from the six of them, a figure appeared in the wind and snow.

In this snowy weather, even if he was thirty or forty feet away, his image should have been very faint. However, even though this person was over a hundred feet away, they felt as though they were able to see him clearly which was odd.

In the very next moment, the six of them saw plainly that this person who was more than a hundred feet away take a leisurely step…

But after he had taken this one step, the whole world seemed to stop. Even the snowflakes in the air slowed down, and the person shortened the distance between them with this one step and appeared right in front of the six!

However, every one of them had a feeling that this was to be expected! If he had not appeared in such a way that would have been considered strange instead!

Chu Yang closed his eyes. His countenance remained calm, but an extreme feeling of amazement rose inside him. Although this individual's techniques did not have any effect on their psyche, he unexpectedly awed and shocked the group at the same time with just a single step!

Because of this, an extreme feeling of admiration was born in their hearts!

Such a technique was earth-shattering!

In the life before this one, Chu Yang had never seen this. He was also unaware that such a martial master would have existed in this world!

Even though he didn't know what this person's cultivation level was, what he knew for certain was that it far surpassed King level!

Compared to Chu Yang's amazement, Gu Du Xing and company were even more amazed! Surrounding the body of this person in front of them, was a majestic air. His stance itself made everyone feel as though the entirety of the world itself was in the palm of his hand.

Gu Du Xing and company came from the upper crust of Middle Three Heavens, but there were no such masters in their clans!

This person was definitely from beyond Middle Three Heavens!

"What's wrong?" This person appeared to be about thirty or forty years old. His face was calm as he looked indifferently at Chu Yang's group, "Did my appearance scare you?"

The moment he said this, an immense aura surged out from his body. It created a fierce pressure that was capable of crushing citadels and perhaps even bring down the sky.

His body suddenly became like deep ravines and great mountains in the eyes of the people in Chu Yang's group! Towering and untouchable!

"Your skill is very powerful, but scare us? Not necessarily!" Three of them spoke the same words in unison.

Chu Yang, Gu Du Xing and Dong Wu Shang!

The three of them simultaneously took a step forward as they lifted their heads looking in the direction of this individual all at the same time!

Their gazes made the person feel as if two swords and a saber had suddenly appeared in front of him!

Swords' arrogance reached the sky!

Saber cut through the universe!

The person frowned slightly, showing a look of admiration in his eyes.

The three young men in front of him had much lower cultivation than him. All he had to do was raise a finger, and he could grab them! Yet, there was not a trace of fear in these young men's eyes!

Instead, their bodies glowed with an unparalleled spirit!

It was as if his appearance gave them to a goal to strive toward! Their gazes were filled with ambition and zeal!

"Ha! Big brother is right! You can kill us, but scare us? Hahaha… Even a supreme level master would be unable to do it!" The person speaking was Luo Ke Di. He froze for a brief moment. Him, Ji Mo and Rui Tong then immediately advanced forward and stood next to Chu Yang, Gu Du Xing, and Dong Wu Shang.

The six had been training and fighting together. Although they rarely talked amongst themselves, all six of them shared the thought that sharing feelings were unnecessary among men.

However, at that moment in the face of a powerful master which they have never seen before, the six of them stood side by side. Strength suddenly rose inside of them: If we stood together like this, we would be able to stand together forever no matter what might come our way!

If we stand like this, we don't have to be scared! Even if we are facing a Supreme master!

If we stand like this, as long as there are others by our side, we will never falter!

A feeling of sharing life and death together quietly rose in everyone. At this moment, the six people truly felt relaxed and warm.

When I step forward, my brothers immediately stand by my side! The strength or identity of my opponent is inconsequential!

Regardless of whether my opponent is a foe or a friend, powerful or not, they still stand by my side!
