Chapter 7 - Interchanging of Space

"Don't make me wait, you only have one chance to survive. Hand out the jade slip." Qiu Puyu was unrelenting that Mu Shen felt chills, however he replied calmly.

"The jade was crushed by me and I have comprehended the Heavenly Dao of seven rivers technique." 

Qiu Puyu's expression finally changed.

He was not happy. "Do you know how many powerhouse are in search for you? Everyone now knows that you bear grandmaster Wang Jian's legendary Technique. You really don't know what mess you've put yourself into." 

Mu Shen's face was grave. How had the news spread? 

"How did you find out? Like you said, only powerhouses can make a move against me. How did they find out." 

Qiu Puyu rolled his eyes. "That blabber mouth, Wang Chung. You should have killed him when you collected his cosmic ring and now, you cannot kill any of them because it's already too late. If Wang Si or Wang Chung dies, you'll be the one to be blamed." 

Qiu Puyu's eyes suddenly sparked. "I can spare your life today if you hand over the Wang's family stone of inheritance."

Mu Shen's eyes grew cold and he spurted out, "the heavens is the ground while the ground is the heart. Both forces meet and everything is pressed down. Horizon Drop!"

Qiu Puyu's pupils shrank as he retreated, but then Mu Shen appeared before him in an instant and said; 

"Finger Dao." 

Three gigantic fingers spun in the sky and then they pressed down upon everything. The first floor of the Tower shook and trembled while the air was fractured to tiny bits. 

Wang Si had escaped the battle below the tower's base only for his pupils to shrink to pinpricks. 

"That's Patriarch Wang Tian's Finger Dao." 

The stone of inheritance is something that is created for the Wangs only but now, an outsider is learning those abilities one after another. It wasn't a crime to learn other battle techniques from other clans, but it becomes a thing of shame if a none-clan member becomes more adept in those battle techniques than the clan themselves. 

Wang Si immediately used his own Finger Dao and attacked Mu Shen. He was just trying to see the difference between his own finger dao and Mu Shen's own finger dao. All of a sudden, Mu Shen and Wang Si's gaze locked. Mu Shen's finger dao spun, attacking Qiu Puyu and also attacking Wang Si. 

One majestic finger instantly suppressed three finger Daos and Wang Si was instantly horrified. He spat out blood and retreated. 

"What in hell!" "How can he be so strong? Is there really no competition?"

Qiu Puyu immediately raised his hands and muttered. "I've played for too long. Time to end this." 

Suddenly a string appeared in mid air. 

"This is the string essence of the universe. The moment I pull, everything would be drown out. You have one last chance!" 

Mu Shen's eyes flickered. The stone of inheritance is with him, but he would never release it. Mu Shen is a stubborn person, not even death would stop him, in fact the feeling of dying is not something strange so what is there to fear? 

At that moment, Zhao Ran reached the first floor and the power of Illusions spread out far and near instantly catching Qiu Puyu off guard. 

If Qiu Puyu had pulled that essence string, everything would have been overturned so a sudden distraction is what Mu Shen wanted and Zhao Ran just happen to grant him his wish. 

The moment Qiu Puyu fell under Illusion, Mu Shen counted five seconds. Qiu is a powerhouse who must not be underestimated so illusions cannot guarantee to keep him at bay. In fact, it was only two seconds and Qiu Puyu broke out of it. He no longer concentrated on Mu Shen as he stared straight at Zhao Ran. 

"Is that Skybreaker?" 

Zhao Ran suddenly felt her back run cold. 

'How on earth does he know about Skybreaker? He could have called any other spiritual attack techniques, but how did he know?' 

Qiu Puyu slowly walked over towards the terrified girl. "I know that Skybreaker is the Legend of the Daynight clan, you're not a Daynight clan so, how did you get your hands on their ultimate technique?" 

Mu Shen glared at Zhao Ran too also wondering how. But he moved too quickly. Revealing the Heavenly Dao of seven rivers technique is akin to trouble, but he had no choice or else Qiu would keep haunting him down.

"Heavenly Dao of the seven rivers!" 

The void suddenly changed. Qiu Puyu turned towards Mu Shen. Wang Si looked over as well, Zhao Ran looked over. 

From below the first floor, every battle was halted as they looked above. 

Ling Xuan, Yuan Shi and Xuan Qi immediately headed for the first floor to see what was going on. 

Si Cheng immediately hurried up knowing fully well that Mu Shen must have acted. 

However the moment they stepped into the first floor, chills crossed down their spines. Wang Chung was horrified. It was as if they were seeing Wang Jian when he was a youth. Who doesn't know of the Legendary Wang Jian, that man had been unrivaled in his youth and Mu Shen happens to carry such aura around him. 

Qiu Puyu's expression was dark. The Heavenly Dao of seven rivers has activated, there was no avoiding it. All of a sudden, the sky changed. 

The tower of fifth transformed. Everything became filled with vitality and the terrifying sound of seven powerful rivers crashing upon themselves resounded. 

It was deafening. 

Mu Shen's eyes was cold and he moved his hands and a fuel of energy crackled around him and space distorted. However, Mu Shen wasn't done with comprehension so, it didn't carry much vitality and it started to fade, but it granted Mu Shen an unrivaled physical power for that moment and he grabbed at Qiu Puyu. 

The man's face darkened and he dodged.

An eerie feeling gnawed at Qiu, telling him that if Mu Shen's power touched him, he might die. He continued to dodge, but not until Mu Shen punched at the sky in a long range that it became an area-of-effect attack. 

The power of an invincible visualization caused space-time to open up and there was a shrink in the void. A deafening silence followed. 

Mu Shen's face was grave. He hadn't landed a single attack on Qiu and the immense strength he had received was fading away gradually. If only he could land a single blow.

But it didn't work out so Mu Shen changed tactics. The seven rivers spread and pressed out at the first floor. Then, the first floor suddenly became the fifth floor while those people within the first floor was returned to the base. 

The moment they were returned below, all of their pupils shrank rapidly in shock. They hadn't even moved, they had not even felt a displacement on their body weight and suddenly they were below the base. The realization shocked a lot of people, but then… 

Qiu Puyu moved heading straight for the first floor but when he entered, it was not the same. Si Cheng was also shocked. The first floor had changed. 

Xuan Qi immediately uttered: "I think he interchanged the floors of the tower." 

Wang Chung and Wang Si was surprised. 

Ancestor Wang Jian had once told them that the Heavenly Dao of Seven Rivers Technique could interchange space, it could also make non-existence to become reality. 

Space Interchanging was instantly engraved on their hearts. They would have to learn that Technique.
