Chapter 348: Chapter 232: Divine Skills_2

The Ice Polar Palace of Snow God Peak is nothing but a disguise for my identity, a piece in my strategic layout. What does Great Xing Mountain count for, and what does White Jade Capital matter?

From the beginning to the end, I’ve never taken those timid rodents that hide their heads and show their tails, too scared to show themselves, seriously.

At most, they’re just a cunning move by the Four Sects, a mere probe, inconsequential.

But now…

Inconsequential matters have become unexpected variables, now severing life before me.

How could this be?

Did Meng Fuyao still have a trump card up her sleeve, the Four Sects already with six corpses resolved?

Chaos, chaos, chaos, chaos enough to make one’s blood boil and one’s head feel like it’s splitting apart!

In this chaos, with my demonic nature growing stronger and disregarding everything else, Zheng Yin slashed out with his blade, intending to forcefully break through the encirclement.

“Puff!”

The Blood-Transforming Divine Blade moved like a scorpion, and with a swing of its tail, it slashed through the void, causing blood to flow ceaselessly.

Such is the might of the Demon Blade. Apart from the Immortal Artifact like Haoqi Long breath, what else could possibly contend with it?

But then the person arriving tilted their shoulders and emitted another burst of energy like a sword.

This energy gleamed white with visible golden light, a hint of a tiger’s roar resounding within, a chilling sword cleaving forth.

One slash down, one light shining. When it met the crimson edge of the Demon Blade, there was suddenly a sound…

“Bang!!!”

A sonorous clash, white light striking against the blood light as if divine swords were twining and vast seas were surging. The potential of gold in action was revealed, but it still couldn’t overpower the Blood Sea Demon Soldiers, only causing the blood scorpion to dim slightly before being shattered.

The Blood Sea Demon Soldiers, originally supreme-grade Spiritual Treasures from ancient times, ranked among the best, and after falling into the Demon Path and being immersed in the blood sea, they nearly crossed the boundary of Heaven and Earth, even daring to contest with Immortal Artifacts.

Previously, they were defeated by Haoqi Long breath because firstly, there was a thousand-year-long entanglement resulting in the blood sea being damaged, and secondly, the Four Sects had plotted to seal the Blood Seed, causing the Blood Demon, who was the Soldier Master, to greatly fall in cultivation and thus in strength, resulting in his defeat under the opponent’s sword.

Now…

No matter the tier of the Demon Soldier or the cultivation of the Soldier Master, both were above the opponent, so how could they not have the upper hand?

Therefore, with one slash of the Blood Demon Blade, the white light was shattered, showcasing the might of the Spiritual Treasure Demon Blade.

However, you have a Demon Blade, and I have Divine Skills.

A hundred thousand Magic Artifacts moved at once, and the power of the Five Elements operated.

Yet another burst of energy emerged with the body, pressing down with the Land-Moving Earth Qi.

Native Land Yellow Light!

The Land Sword was teeming with Earth Qi—just like mountains pressing down, like rivers overturning.

“Bang!!!”

Such a pressing and overwhelming, such a rush and a sweep, caused the blood scorpion’s light to dim once more, the edge of the Demon Blade to blunt by another tenth.

“Land-Moving Earth Qi!”

“A body of the Five Elements?”

“Ahhh!!!”

First there was crimson fire Qi, next came white metallic Qi, and now yellow thick Qi. How could Zheng Yin not recognize the foundation of the opponent’s body technique? He let out a piercing howl and swung the Blood-Transforming Divine Blade with all his might, causing the blood sea to surge skywards.

“Bang!!!”

After all, a supreme-grade Spiritual Treasure is a supreme-grade Spiritual Treasure, and the Blood Sea Demon Soldiers are Blood Sea Demon Soldiers.

A full-strength slash, even though facing the Land-Moving Earth Qi, the strongest defense among the Five Elements, was cruelly split apart by the blade’s bloody edge, mercilessly shattered.

However…

Under the bird-faced mask, not a trace of panic was seen, only energy like a sword, vast and sweeping, rolling out.

A breath of green, a flash of sprit light, carrying boundless vitality, fell into the raging blood sea.

Though it was Yimu’s vitality, in the Blood Demon’s eyes, it was worse than malicious thunderfire.

Zheng Yin’s pupils contracted with shock, anger, and fear, but he was powerless to do anything other than to once more pour his strength into the Demon Blade.

A clash of the Demon Blade, blood splattered in the void, and as it collided with the green light, it immediately shattered the green light.

Yet, shattered does not mean dissipated, like roots digging deep.

The broken shards of green light spiked out, penetrating the body of the crimson blood scorpion, turning into countless roots and veins.

Yimu’s vitality, the blood sea’s filth, both at their extremes clashed.

“Ahhh!!!”

Watching the crimson blood scorpion entangled and eroded by the green wooden Spiritual Root, Zheng Yin roared in fury, as the blood sea waves raged up, pouring into the Blood Demon Blade from his body.

“Boom!”

A blast and the Blood Demon Blade trembled. The green roots shattered into pieces, and the crimson blood scorpion regained its freedom once more.

However…

There came another breath, another light, black water mysteriously condensed and shone forth.

“Spit!!!”

Zheng Yin could neither dodge nor defend in time. Before he could swing the Demon Blade, a black light and a mysterious sword pierced into his chest, through his blood clothes and straight into his heart.

“Ahhh!!!”

Though the Blood Demon’s body had no vital points to speak of, the black light that penetrated still caused immense pain.

Just recovered and still unstable, the blood body twisted again, becoming a semi-transparent flow, with a streak of black light moving like water within, ravaging through limbs and organs, leaving wounds hard to heal.

“The Qi of the Five Elements, the Divine Skills of magic!”

“Good, very good, indeed!”

His chest and abdomen had already transformed into a flow of blood, only his head remained in human form. Zheng Yin let out a hoarse roar and once again urged the Blood-Transforming Divine Blade.

“Crack crack crack!”

With a movement of the Blood-Transforming Divine Blade, its layered hooks swirling, a demon blade resembling a blood scorpion extended two spikes from beneath its belly, piercing into the wrist of the Blood Demon like syringes.

“Pfft!”

As the spikes pierced, bloodlines connected, the demon blade’s Qi returned to the body, and instantly cut down the rogue streak of black light causing chaos within his chest and abdomen.

Even though the black light was extinguished, the young body still shook, blood veins covering his skin, even his white hair turned into a scarlet red, with faint movements of insects and snakes within.

The Boxun Heart Sutra intensified the demonic nature, nearing the critical point of “Other Transformation.”

A self-transformed freedom, the Blood Demon not of Self, converted to the Nether River Blood God, becoming an Asura Body.

In this way, though possessed of boundless might, it is not the fruit of my own path, but merely the seed of another.

Unwilling, utterly unwilling!

“Ah!!!”

Amidst the utmost demonic tribulation, the obsession with the great Dao only grew stronger, Zheng Yin laughed madly as he brandished the blade with both hands.

To hold with both hands is to strive with all one’s might, and also to demonstrate determination.

Instantly, the sea of blood boiled, splitting in two, the demon blade cleaved with a force pushed to its limit, slashing towards the newcomer like cleaving mountains and splitting rocks.

The Blood Demon staked its life, the Demon Blade exerted its full strength.

Facing such a killing move, even a Nascent Soul in Corpse Resolution would flee in panic, or else perish under the blade.

However, the newcomer was neither in Corpse Resolution nor a Nascent Soul!

There was only a Golden Core, a Flawless Golden Core formed of the Five Elements and Four Laws, refined Nine Turns.

And a Spiritual Treasure, a Five Elements Harmony, born of Chaos Yuan, the Five Elements Spiritual Treasure.

And a Mecha, a Five Elements Royal Instrument, the Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor crafted by Heavenly Works.

With such a foundation, such Magical Treasures, such methods…

What would a Nascent Soul amount to?

What would a Demon Blade count for?

All weapons activated in unison, the Five Elements driven together, Azure, Yellow, Red, White, and Black, the Five Qi appeared at once, bursting forth from behind the cultivator, darting straight toward the blood sea and the Demon Blade.

The Five Colors shone brightly, the Five Sword Qi swept across, merging midway into one, exhaling a breath of Chaos Yuan’s Air.

One breath, just one breath, an insignificant breath!

But it was this one breath…

“Bang!!!”

With a clang, the Blood Demon Blade shattered.

The raging sea of blood exploded upwards, a sword pierced through it, directly through the body of the Blood Demon.

Zheng Yin’s expression changed, his body trembled, staggering backwards, with every step blood burst forth like dammed floods, rolling vehemently, yet not falling into the sea of blood, instead evaporating into ash mid-air.

Such a retreat spanned ten steps, and within those ten steps, who knows how much blood turned to ash.

In the end, the Blood Demon’s body was out of sight, only the tumultuous sea of blood remained, with a Five Colors sword within, its tip containing Chaos Yuan, causing the blood to boil away into nothingness, the area of the sea visibly shrinking.

Just then…

“Amitabha Buddha, Prajna and Mara!”

“Our demon’s compassion, universally delivers all beings!”

“Master of the Desire Realm, the Sixth Heavenly King!”

“The Boxun Heart Sutra, the autonomous Mana Point!”

“A self-transformed freedom, Prajna and Mara!”

The sound of Zen chanting arose again, the tune of demonic tribulation reemerged, echoing in everyone’s minds, like maggots on bones, impossible to rid oneself of.

In the vault of the sky, a blood moon emerged, gathering the spirits of demons from all directions, casting down a crimson moonlight that fell into the boiling sea of blood.

The demon fell into degeneracy, the blood moon became the source, and springs appeared once again in the nearly dried-up sea of blood, the previously shattered and obliterated Demon Blade also reformed.

“Prajna and Mara, my master is compassionate!”

With a soft utterance, within the sea of blood, Zheng Yin’s silhouette reappeared, raising his hand to grasp the Demon Blade.

Zheng Yin?

Was it the Corpse Blood Divine Monarch Zheng Yin?

Or the Blood Sea Asura, the Nether River Blood God Child?

No one knew, it was difficult to discern.

But at that moment, the Blood Demon was the Blood Demon.

“You aid my conversion, I shall repay the great favor!”

The Blood Demon looked dismissive, spoke softly, and with a raise of his blade drove the sea of blood directly towards the cultivator.

Seeing this, the cultivator didn’t say much, merely swept his robe, and the divine light reappeared behind him, again forming Azure, Yellow, Red, White, and Black colors.

The Divine Light in five colors, each containing an object, a tree, a sword, a bead, a tripod, and a seal respectively.
