The waters of the Heavenly River flowed unceasingly, yet Ye Yu stood still.
Some things were not exclusive to Jiang Yun’s understanding.
Ye Yu, too, could figure them out.
Previously, when he was in the mortal realm, his suicidal forbidden arts were akin to a dimensional strike for cultivators.
Unless one’s cultivation was far above Ye Yu’s, they would certainly face death.
However, upon arriving in the Celestial Realm, everything felt different.
Forbidden arts from the mortal realm ultimately had limited power here.
Attempting to kill high-realm celestials now felt somewhat inadequate.
Still, the destructive side effects of the Disaster Redirection Technique remained significant.
But it had a glaring drawback: a target had to be identified in advance.
If the target was hidden, as Jiang Yun was, the technique became passive.
Ye Yu surveyed his surroundings.
There was no cover nearby.
The only possibility was the barrier ahead!
Ye Yu didn’t doubt his instincts.
He immediately employed the Myriad Stars Technique.
Gathering the power of the stars, he broke through the invisible barrier!
The moment the barrier shattered—
Jiang Yun’s form appeared, looking alarmed, and he immediately fled.
Ye Yu prepared to use the forbidden Burning Blood Inferno technique.
But he stopped at the last moment.
Instead, he shifted his hand seals.
“Reveal!” he shouted sternly.
In an instant, a golden light shone above him.
A faint figure gradually emerged, less than a hundred meters south of Ye Yu.
Ye Yu chuckled.
He resumed his Burning Blood Inferno.
“Aahhh!”
A shrill scream resounded.
Jiang Yun’s figure slowly reappeared.
His blood and bones began dissolving at an alarming rate.
He attempted to follow Chang Zhige’s example, abandoning his celestial body to escape in soul form.
But it was too late.
A formation activated beneath his feet, and the black heavenly flames delivered the final blow.
He died without understanding one thing.
Why, after Ye Yu’s attention had been diverted by the decoy, did he not directly attack?
The answer was simple.
Ye Yu’s Disaster Redirection Talent had failed to activate.
He realized the one fleeing just now was not the real body.
Thus, he used the “Reveal” command to locate Jiang Yun’s true position.
Finally disposing of these three celestials, Ye Yu couldn’t help but exhale a sigh of relief.
If this dream realm hadn’t granted him such a powerful talent, he might have met his end here today.
But what were these three celestials doing?
Why did they all carry fishing rods and baskets?
Could they be the anglers the Nine-Tailed Fox predecessor had mentioned?
Curious, Ye Yu flashed to Cui Shenji’s corpse.
Just as he was about to reach for the fishing rod and basket—
A sword pierced through his heart.
The blade continued, severing Ye Yu’s spiritual veins with incredible speed.
Grievously wounded, Ye Yu collapsed to the ground.
Beside him, Cui Shenji suddenly opened his eyes.
He rose slowly, wiping the blood from his face.
“Heh, you’re a tricky one. This celestial nearly fell for it!”
Ye Yu stared at Cui Shenji in disbelief.
He couldn’t comprehend why, despite having redirected the Blood Sword’s side effects to Cui Shenji, this man was still alive.
That technique was meant to be suicidal.
Ye Yu was at a loss.
The Nirvana Glazed Robe on him emitted a faint glow.
His wounds began to heal rapidly before his eyes.
