chapter 4920: use blood to pave the road, use bones to build the bridge

no one knew what power xing wujiang was using, but he directly pierced the devil corpse’s protective divine light to appear above the square heaven seal.

“i’m sorry.”

xing wujiang rubbed the square heaven seal, his expression filled with guilt. “this was all caused by my xing family’s powerlessness. we failed to stand by you in your trials. you fought against the devil head for so many years, enduring its corruption, but no one from the xing family came to your aid. you had to face it alone until now. it was my family that let you down...”

xing wujiang’s voice choked with sobs. he couldn’t harbor resentment toward the square heaven seal. despite it preventing him from having descendants, he knew it wasn’t the seal’s will, but rather the influence of the devil soul. regretfully, the xing family had long since declined. even after countless years, they had not managed to produce a true expert capable of helping the square heaven seal.

if they could help the square heaven seal, even to just buy it a moment of rest from time to time, perhaps it wouldn’t have been infected by the devil soul.

buzz.

the square heaven seal became translucent, revealing a scene from the past. within it, a small boy of six or seven years old appeared, immersed in bitter cultivation. beside him stood a stern elder wielding a wooden stick, correcting his every mistake with a swift strike. each blow left a bloody mark on the child, who clenched his teeth in silent determination, refusing to back down.

day and night, the boy worked hard, undeterred by hardship. with each passing day, he became stronger. these were xing wujiang’s footsteps.

“i’m sorry.”

xing wujiang wept. the square heaven seal had always treated him like a son, but he understood that the devil soul was manipulating its emotions, making it difficult for him to carry out his next action.

with outstretched arms, xing wujiang embraced the square heaven seal as if it were family. closing his eyes, he started to merge into it. blood-colored ripples instantly spread across the entire surface of the square heaven seal.

“big brother wujiang!”

long chen and mo nian roared in disbelief as they watched xing wujiang sacrifice his own life to merge with the square heaven seal. it was the only way to temporarily wrest control of the square heaven seal from the devil soul.

boom!

suddenly, countless cracks spiderwebbed across the surface of the square heaven seal. similar cracks appeared on the devil corpse, signaling its merging with the square heaven seal had already begun.

meanwhile, long chen and mo nian remained fixated on the spot where xing wujiang had vanished. they couldn’t accept his sudden departure; it felt like they were trapped in a nightmare, oblivious to the words of the vice hall master.

“have you gone mute? or are you too terrified to speak? could it be that you’ve given up and are quietly awaiting death?” sneered the masked man.

after a long time, mo nian turned to long chen and asked, “what do you think?”

long chen’s expression was ice-cold, black spots appearing in his eyes as his aura grew dark and sinister. he seemed different, but he was oblivious to the change, and even mo nian didn’t notice it.

“what is there to say? big brother wujiang has passed on. as his brothers, we have to send him help!” long chen’s voice was slightly hoarse.

“what help?” asked mo nian.

“we’ll pave the road with blood and build the bridge with bones. how else will big brother wujiang rest in peace in the nine springs?” replied long chen, his tone resolute.

“hahaha!” the surrounding experts laughed at long chen and mo nian’s words.

the masked man joined in the laughter. “you really are laughably foolish. how can two pieces of trash like you say such grandiose words?”

“are you ready?” long chen asked mo nian, his gaze intense. he held a peculiar crystal in his hand. the appearance of this crystal didn’t cause any reaction from the crowd. however, when the vice hall master saw it, his expression suddenly darkened.

boom!

long chen tightened his grip and shattered the crystal, sending a strange ripple spreading in every direction.

this ripple covered everyone. the masked man was startled, but he quickly realized that the ripple didn’t do anything to him. just as he was about to mock long chen, the heaven saints started to cry out in terror.

“my cultivation base... it’s been suppressed!”
