Chapter 534 - 389: Warfire Burns the City, Sword Slaying and Blade Hooking_2
"Murder!"
"My enemy is Myriad Gold Pavilion."
"Locals, run for your lives, I'm going on a killing spree!"
"Those who stand in my way shall die!"
Of course, everyone recognized Meng Yu. His personal column was far more popular than those of the competition's prodigies. Many villains even deliberately left messages under the columns of those prodigies, asking, "How do you compare to Meng Yu?"
But why had he barged in here?
A True Sage from Taiyi Sect furrowed his brow. It was a critical moment for the martial competition between the Four Great Sects. What was Meng Yu doing in Wanbao City?
"Meng Yu!"
He had met Meng Yu once before, when Meng Yu had applied for more slots to enter the Ascension List, which was then rejected by the higher-ups.
"I..."
He wanted to say something but saw a flash of saber light.
The saber light was like water, the red glow like blood!
As a Golden Core Master with the physique of Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, he could resist any fierce poison and curses, but this strike made his body instantly rigid.
The Divine Skill of Blood Transformation meant that under one slash, if the opponent was struck, they would be permeated by the bizarre True Qi of the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber, which was like lotus roots, altering their spirit, energy, and mind, and becoming part of the saber.
The Golden Core Expert from Taiyi Sect stood behind Meng Yu like a puppet, and the entire hall instantly fell silent, even the dancers looked at Meng Yu with strange eyes.
In the Ascension List, there were countless Nascent Souls and Golden Cores, but everyone was behaving at the moment, not because they were good people, but because causing trouble would result in brutal retaliation from the Four Great Sects and Myriad Gold Pavilion in reality!
"Go!"
Meng Yu charged forward, landing in the midst of a group of Myriad Gold Pavilion disciples. These mere Qi Cultivation disciples instantly became corpses, their bodies pierced by blood-red threads, then staggeringly threw themselves against the surrounding walls and pillars, beginning the destruction.
When the load-bearing walls and pillars were destroyed, the entire hall began to collapse!
No ideal was separable from reality, and no powerful organization could exist without a base and logistics.
This restaurant, refurbished four months ago with countless manpower and resources, was now being wrecked by Meng Yu!
The next moment, Myriad Gold Pavilion's elite cultivators arrived, and the battle truly began.
Swords like the wind, deadly accurate, sabers like demons—those struck by it either died or were controlled by him, starting to destroy everything around them.
The battle was fast, fierce, and extremely bloody, until the moment four Nascent Souls cornered Meng Yu. A thunderous roar sounded as Chaos Sword Intent of the Four Great Void was unleashed, leveling everything within hundreds of meters, including a Nascent Soul and many more Qi Foundation Establishment disciples dead on the spot.
This time the Ascension List was opened with a ban on self-detonation, but this was not self-detonation by Meng Yu. Instead, it was due to a problem that occurred during the operation of the Four Great Void Chaos Destruction, resulting in an imbalance of True Qi and such, leading to deviation!
He was dead.
But... no one showed any joy, because they all remembered the curse of the number twenty-seven!
In the previous bloody battles, Meng Yu could resurrect twenty-seven times in a single day.
And now, Meng Yu had only died twice!
...
The past half-day had been an incredibly dark and suffocating half-day for Myriad Gold Pavilion.
The opening of the Ascension List by the Four Great Sects was a major even for Central Plains cultivators, whether they liked it or not, they would come to see it.
Some came to chat and gather with friends from all over, others to fight their enemies to the death, some to exchange knowledge without fearing assassination, and others to witness the progress of martial arts and cultivation over the past decades, learning more about local customs.

It was a grand gathering, like the Olympics or the World Cup on Azure Star, where cultivators from all over watched the spectacle, always with some becoming the center of attention.
And today, Meng Yu brought everyone to a grand slaughter.
The third resurrection brought him to the second trading market, where Meng Yu wreaked havoc, turning a third of the entire market into ruins before he got cornered. Then, Boom! "Four Great Void, Chaos Destruction!"
This was much stronger than deploying swordsmanship; it's equivalent to the Heavenly Demon's disintegration combined with Blood Explosion and the descent of chaos!
The fourth resurrection witnessed the Myriad Gold Pavilion's people waiting at the four resurrection points, but could they possibly stop Meng Yu?
The area one kilometer around a resurrection point is accessible from all sides, designed precisely to prevent powerful forces from blocking students. So how many Nascent Souls could the Myriad Gold Pavilion muster?
Now, it took three Nascent Souls joining forces to ensure victory, but Meng Yu could escape. At least fifteen Nascent Souls were needed to corner him. But with four resurrection points, did the Myriad Gold Pavilion have sixty Nascent Souls?
What a joke, the Myriad Gold Pavilion only had a dozen Nascent Souls, and some of them didn't make regular appearances or handle affairs!
Meng Yu broke out of the encirclement and then arrived at a nearby commercial street. He forced his way into shops that hadn't managed to close in time. He wasn't there to rob or steal; instead, he demolished walls and columns, acting like a one-man demolition crew!
Myriad Gold Pavilion, you might be powerful and can quickly resurrect those you've killed, but can you blow on your buildings and restore them with a single breath?
Sword light flew like a shuttle, smashing walls and cracking pillars, saber light hooked like a reaper, slaughtering like grass.
Meng Yu killed anyone who wasn't a native on sight, turned them into puppets upon death, and had them start destroying things around him.
Swords for killing, sabers for hooking!
The cultivators from the Myriad Gold Pavilion followed behind him, unleashing various attacks. But then, with a thunderous noise, Meng Yu and everyone with him vanished into oblivion.
And then, the fifth resurrection began!
...
Bai Hu and Bai Yang stood on a flying boat, watching the chaotic scene below.
Meng Yu had already died twenty-one times.
The flying boat was a large touring magical treasure, allowing tourist cultivators to bird's eye view the scenery of Wanbao City from high above. Today's visitors had their fill of excitement, clapping and cheering, deeming their trip worthwhile.
During the third death, every cultivator aboard the flying boat remembered the name of the demolishing little prince, Meng Yu.
When he died for the sixth time, everyone learned about the grudge between Meng Yu and the Myriad Gold Pavilion.
By the tenth death, as the towering buildings below collapsed, the crowd commented that although they were well-traveled and knowledgeable, they had never seen a scene like this!
This building was the iconic construction of the city center, heavily fortified by the Myriad Gold Pavilion with all sorts of Protective Formations activated, guards everywhere. But Meng Yu charged in with a move "Four Great Void," and the devastating sword technique opened a gap in the Protective Formation, then he made his way to an Eye of Array and released another "Four Great Void." The Chaos Sword Intent didn't destroy the array's eye, but damaged the supports, then the battle continued until the next moment, Meng Yu self-destructed, ascending to the skies along with both the Eye of Array and cultivators.
That was his action during the seventh resurrection. By the eighth, he returned and used the same tactics to destroy another Eye of Array, causing the Protective Formation along with the Spirit Vein to malfunction and go berserk. By the ninth time, the stubborn Meng Yu charged in the face of a large group of fiercely defending Nascent Souls and Golden Core experts, continuing to confront the enemy head-on.
He died in combat, but when he charged in for the tenth time, he succeeded.
The tall building, having lost two Eyes of Array—Spiritual Energy going haywire and the structure's supports damaged—finally collapsed with a thunderous crash!
People may come back to life, but once buildings fall, what do you have to prop them up again!
The battle below continued. The majestic yet sturdy Wanbao City plunged into chaos. The four great resurrection points in the east, west, south, and north ensured that Meng Yu could cover all areas, never easily blockaded!
"Wasn't he at war with the Eternal Night Palace? How come he's fighting with the Myriad Gold Pavilion here?"
Bai Yang blinked, looking at the devastation below.
Too cruel, too terrifying!
Poor rabbit Bai Qianqian!
"Perhaps, he feels that he should give the Myriad Gold Pavilion, the ally of the Eternal Night Palace, a memorable pain before the war begins, and then they'll obediently withdraw?"
Bai Hu looked complexly at what transpired below.
Although she could understand Meng Yu's thought process, she could not fathom his reasoning yet had to admit he was absolutely relentless!
