Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 552 - 568: The Red-Clad Youth’s Identity

Chu Linfeng opened his eyes and smiled bitterly, "You really are impatient. If you had given me half an hour more, I could have completely practiced Star Slash, but forget it, I’ll go out and take a look."

Opening the stone door of the secret chamber, Chu Linfeng walked out and immediately teleported to the Martial Arts Training Ground of Green Frost Sect. Everyone from Green Frost Sect was gathered here, yet that young man in red only brought a few hundred people, seemingly dismissing the Green Frost Sect entirely.

"You really dared to come, huh? I thought you had already run away. If you had appeared a little later, these people from Green Frost Sect might all have been corpses. It seems you have a bit of self-awareness!" The young man in red arrogantly said upon seeing Chu Linfeng.

"You’re arrogant and wild! As a descendant of the Blood Emperor, you should have such a brazen demeanor, but you are still somewhat lacking in front of me. Do you know who I am?" Chu Linfeng smiled, his eyes fixed on the opponent.

"Ha, as if I’d come to Green Frost Sect without knowing your background. Rumor has it that you’re the reincarnation of Cyan Frost from years ago. I came here especially to test it today. But seeing you haven’t broken through to the Saint Martial Realm makes me feel like I’m bullying you, which makes me feel quite uneasy. You’re not mad at me, are you?" The young man in red replied with a laugh.

Everyone understood his meaning; several people from Green Frost Sect were tempted to get angry but were stopped by Chu Linfeng. After glancing at the people the red-clothed young man brought, Chu Linfeng chuckled, "Did you bring these people to destroy my Green Frost Sect? I am confident that they will be completely annihilated."

"Feel free to try!" The young master in red smiled and waved his hand, and the hundreds of men behind him immediately charged at Green Frost Sect’s disciples.

Chu Linfeng didn’t take their strength seriously. Only one had broken through to the Saint Martial Realm, and Celestial Ape alone could handle him. The others could be countered by people from Green Frost Sect.

Chu Linfeng drew out the Cyan Frost Sword, quickly slashing towards the young man in red. The slash lacked attack power; he simply didn’t want the young man in red to fight him within Green Frost Sect.

Given their powerful attacks, it was likely they could destroy Green Frost Sect, and the many disciples might suffer from collateral damage.

The young man in red clearly understood Chu Linfeng’s intention. He deftly avoided Chu Linfeng’s attack and chuckled, "Rest assured, if I want to battle you, it must be in a desolate place. This area likely can’t withstand a blow from both of us."

Saying this, he flashed again, appearing hundreds of meters in the air. Chu Linfeng was slightly surprised, realizing the opponent could also teleport. He wondered if the distance of his own teleportation matched his opponent’s; this person was truly formidable. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Not slow either, Chu Linfeng instantly appeared behind the young man in red, who took out a somewhat ordinary red sword from his storage ring. From hilt to blade, the sword shone a bright red, resembling blood and appeared rather eerie.

Chu Linfeng didn’t dare to be careless, gripping the handle of Cyan Frost Sword tightly. Even at such a distance, there was still danger. His Celestial Slash could potentially level Green Frost Sect, not to mention the terrifying Star Slash.

The young man in red lightly twirled his sword towards the void; the motion was so nonchalant it resembled swordplay, displaying no energy fluctuations. Yet a massive space black hole appeared in front of him.

With a casual stroke of his sword, he tore through the void. The display of power shocked Chu Linfeng, who had to take a deep breath; even he might struggle to achieve such a feat. He felt fear at the red-clothed young man’s prowess once more.

Looking at the torn space black hole, the young man in red laughed, "Sect Master Chu, weren’t you worried about harming your disciples and sect? I’ll give you an opportunity; do you dare enter this space black hole for a fight?"

Without hesitating, Chu Linfeng replied, "Why wouldn’t I? I’m just worried that if I kill you inside, no one would know, and your sect won’t be able to retrieve your corpse."

"Great! Let’s go!" The young man in red entered the space black hole without waiting for Chu Linfeng.

Being able to easily tear open space, it would naturally be just as easy to exit. He wasn’t worried about Chu Linfeng, knowing Chu Linfeng would have to enter to fight him. Both were well aware of how destructive a true expert could be.

Chu Linfeng followed, entering the space black hole, recalling the familiar feeling of having spent years within it. The astral winds soothed his worries.

"Cyan Frost, you’ve become so weak; I’m quite disappointed!" The young master in red’s voice suddenly sounded aged.

"Who are you? Blood Emperor? You’re not dead?" Chu Linfeng asked in surprise.

"Hahaha! You aren’t dead so how could I be? During the battle years ago, both I and the Netherworld Lord were merely severely injured by you! If I’m correct, Netherworld Lord didn’t die either!" The young man in red added.

Chu Linfeng was only half-aware of that heaven-shaking, earth-shattering battle in the Divine Battlefield years ago. However, he did know one thing: both Blood Emperor and Netherworld Lord were used by Lonely Demon Venerable as tools of vengeance against him.

"Blood Emperor, you and the Netherworld Lord were oppressed by the Lonely Demon Venerable; don’t you know? I don’t understand why you seek revenge against me now!" Chu Linfeng inquired.

"Of course I know we were used by him. Even if he hadn’t used us, we would have dealt with you. You are too powerful—a strength that induces fear. Given a few more decades, no one would stand a chance in this world. Your existence is always a threat to us, and that’s why the Demon Lord attacked you." The young man in red explained.

"Since we have to battle today, I’ll accompany you. Although I’ve been unable to break into the Saint Martial Realm without the Netherworld Purple Orchid, I should be adequate against you. However, I do have a question I’d like you to answer." Chu Linfeng spoke.

"Ask away; I’ll grant you your last wish. I’ve waited ten thousand years for this day; it’s not been easy. Both I and the Netherworld Lord knew you would reincarnate; we just didn’t expect you to appear now." The young man in red replied.

Chu Linfeng wasn’t disturbed by this revelation and asked, "What’s with your body? Are you reincarnated as well?"

"I’m not reincarnated; I’ve taken over or you can say inherited. The body’s owner hasn’t died; he’s just been temporarily controlled by me. I was severely injured by you years ago, and it took me thousands of years to recuperate. However, my physical body couldn’t be used again, so I waited thousands of years finally finding a rare Earth Spiritual Body capable of enduring my energy. Today, prepare to die!" The young master in red declared.

With that, he swiftly struck a sword towards Chu Linfeng, generating a whirlwind inside the space black hole and causing the space to tremble violently, as if about to shatter.

Chu Linfeng hadn’t expected an attack so swiftly; he was completely unprepared. Hastily, he utilized teleportation, disappearing hundreds of meters away...
