Supreme Sword Exalt

Gu Han found himself on top of a vast ocean. The ocean stretched beyond imagination, making him feel like an ant struggling bitterly on the sea’s surface. Every tiny wave that crashed down threatened to swallow him whole.

He cupped a drop of crystalline clear seawater. Even though it was only a single drop, the power contained within it was far stronger than his previous self. The ocean embodied the power of heaven and earth, while a single drop represented the extent of his control over it.

When Gu Han opened his eyes, two points of divine light flickered within them. It was a kind of power that resembled heavenly might, yet was unique to him. As it slowly emanated from him, it dispersed the surrounding mist.

Under the baptism of the Saint realm law, the small personification of his soul had also transformed completely, even carrying a hint of sanctity. Even if his physical body was destroyed, his divine soul could still exist independently for a certain period.

As long as he could find a suitable body, he could resurrect once more, just like Chu Kuang. Or, more elegantly, reincarnate.

Gu Han sensed the changes within him. “The Saint realm, huh? So strong!”

He thought to himself, If I went up against that imposter now, I wouldn’t need the Mortal World’s Intent at all. I could beat him to a pulp!

Meanwhile, Luo Wushuang reached out with his left hand and grasped the immortal light. Flipping his right palm, an extremely thick, resentful aura fell into his right hand.

He looked up gently. “Almost there. Time to end this farce.”

Slowly, he walked forward and soon disappeared into the mist.

Fatty was curled up in a corner while clutching his head with both hands. A wobbly golden bell was covering him. He endured his clone’s punches and kicks without making a sound.

The other party was too shameless. When he saw that Fatty had given in, he grew even more smug, no longer holding back his punches. It was as if he truly saw Fatty as Gu Han and wanted to give him a thorough beating.

However, as the beating continued, the clone realized something was wrong. With every strike, Fatty coughed up blood as his golden bell cracked and dimmed. Yet the moment it broke, Fatty would repair it in time. In just half an hour, Fatty’s bell had shattered countless times, yet he stubbornly held on.

Fatty spat out more blood, then perked up again. “My defense is second in the world! If you’ve got the skill, break it and I will take your surname!”

His clone’s expression turned a bit ugly. He was about to strike again when a sharp sting shot through his right hand. For some reason, his right hand had swollen to twice the size of his left!

Just then, time was up, and he appeared speechless. Before dissipating, he cursed loudly, “You’re fucking tough! Your father gave you the wrong name! Fu Yulin? Might as well call you Fu Turtle!”

As his voice faded, so did he, turning into a law fragment. However, compared to Gu Han’s, it was slightly weaker.

***

Caught off guard, Yun Fan’s clone hit him with his scissors. Unable to hold on any longer, he spat out blood and flew far into the mist. He disappeared and was eliminated. Zhao Mengyou and Xue Yu fared no better. None of them were particularly outstanding in combat ability. Thus, they were also eliminated one after another. Qiu Qian and Hui Ren held on for the half hour, successfully passing the sixth pass.

***

Inside a great hall filled with immortal light, several figures landed one after another. Feng Xi, Fatty, Yan Qi, Mei Yun...

Fatty clutched his still swollen face, cursing, “Fuck! Beaten into this state by myself, this is really—huh?”

Before he finished speaking, he noticed something strange. Not far away, Qiu Qian and Hui Ren each stood in a corner, while beside him stood Feng Xi and her group. Gu Han was the only one missing.

He was dumbfounded. “Where is he?”

“Where’s Junior Brother?”

“Where did Senior go?”

“What’s going on?”

Zuo Yang and the others also spoke up one after another.

Qiu Qian was very confused. Do you even need to ask? He obviously didn’t clear the pass.

Not far away, after seeing that Wu Xin was also absent, Hui Ren let out a long sigh of relief. The demon fetus is finally eliminated!

For no reason, his mood was very good. He chanted to Fatty, “Amithaba. The sixth pass is rather special. It involves fighting oneself. If Gu Han was momentarily careless, it’s also possible—”

Fatty said rudely, “What do you know?! When that bastard goes crazy, he’ll even cut himself, and you’re telling me he couldn’t pass? Who do you take him for?! He’d absolutely pass!!”

When it came to tricking Gu Han, he ranked first. When it came to trusting Gu Han, he also ranked first.

Even though he was cursing Gu Han, his tone carried a hint of worry. “That bastard must have gone overboard again!”

***

In the mist, Gu Han waited a long time, yet still saw no sign of the next pass. He couldn’t help but frown deeply. What’s going on? Could this be the seventh pass?

Luo Wushuang slowly walked out of the mist. As he walked, the immortal light in his right palm trembled continuously, locking onto the surrounding mist and preventing it from dissipating.

Gu Han’s heart tightened. “You? How did you get here?”

Seeing the immortal light in the other’s hand and the unusual state of the mist, he slowly pieced things together.

Gu Han slowly raised his sword as faint saintly might rose from him. “Are you behind this?”

Luo Wushuang smiled. “Gu Han, I came to find you to ask a favor.”

“I’m not interested!”

“There’s a reward.”

“Get lost!”

Luo Wushuang’s smile grew wider. “It’s an Ultimate Saint law fragment. From what I can see, you follow the Supreme Stage path. Now that you’ve stepped into the Saint realm, I don’t need to tell you how important this thing is to you, right?”

Gu Han didn’t believe him one bit. “Such a good thing, and you’re not keeping it for yourself?”

“Even though it’s good, I don’t follow the Supreme Stage path.”

“Where’s the thing?”

Luo Wushuang smiled. “I’ll give it to you after the deed is done. You should know me well by now. I mean what I say.”

Gu Han sheathed his sword. “Brother Luo, what favor? Just say it.”

Luo Wushuang looked up at the sky as a strange light flashed in his eyes. “It’ simple. Accompany me to the tenth pass.”

Gu Han’s face darkened, and he almost cursed out loud. Accompany my ass!

He turned and left. “Go fuck yourself!”

Just then, a violent and cruel aura rose. The next moment, Wu Xin had already landed before the two.

Wu Xin looked at Gu Han, then at Luo Wushuang, instinctively licking his lips. From his pitch-black eyes, strands of dark demonic qi continuously emanated, making him seem otherworldly. “Where are the both of you going? Mind taking me along?”
