Chapter 819 - 641: Netherworld Sword Realm
"Body Refining Cultivator!"
Profound Nine Yin’s eerie expression suddenly tightened with shock.
He could sense the horrifying and domineering force contained within that punch from the Vajra Demon Form opposite him.
The black robe covering him was directly swept away by the overwhelming fist wind.
His true face was revealed.
Meanwhile, Master Yaochen, Shii Susu, and several others stared up at the towering Demon Body with mouths agape, their minds blank...
Was this really the Fellow Daoist Lii they interacted with daily, who was kind and temperate?
The dwarfish elder Baili Hui, hiding near the Medicine Garden, also stared wide-eyed at this scenario, unable to accept such a reality.
Though he knew the ’Elder Lii’ he ran errands for was extraordinary, he never expected it to be this exaggerated.
The power Qin Ming displayed at present was entirely equal to—or even surpassed—his own peak state.
More than capable...
Bang!
Under the punch of the Vajra Demon Form, Profound Nine Yin of Netherworld Sect—the celestial talent—was merely brushed by the fist wind and sent flying by a massive force, spewing blood and hurtling a thousand feet away.
As for Alliance Leader Zuo, he was unfortunate; his Primordial Spirit was directly hit by Qin Ming’s Demon Face Fist Shadow, obliterated without even uttering last words...
The Vajra Demon Form, with an unstoppable force, annihilated the early-stage Divinity Transformation Alliance Leader Zuo with one punch, adding a Ten Thousand Forms Celestial Demon Pattern to his arm.
Nearby, Profound Nine Yin, shocked and enraged, wiped his bloodied mouth and glared at Qin Ming:
"Well! Very well!"
"I didn’t expect the deepest hidden to be a Spirit Plant Master on Black Obsidian Peak."
"I have reached late-stage Divinity Transformation over so many years, and you’re the first to injure me."
"Unexpectedly, a Spirit Plant Cultivator can refine body cultivation to mid-stage Divinity Transformation... no, even beyond late-stage Divinity Transformation... Truly impressive."
"But you’re facing me!"
With those words, Profound Nine Yin burst forth with sky-piercing Sword Intent!!
He was the most talented cultivator of Netherworld Sect in millennia, possessing the Yin-Transforming Profound Corpse Spirit Body, and practicing the Netherworld Sword Dao was like a fish in water; he was the Unity of Man and Sword, Innate Sword Seed!
In the Demon Ancient Wasteland, he had slain seven or eight Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivators without counting both hands.
He was the most cherished descendant of the Netherworld Ancestor, pouring all lifetime knowledge and resources into him.
And regarded as the successor of Netherworld Sect, only Profound Nine Yin could inherit the Netherworld Ancestor’s legacy and break through to the Void Refining Stage.
Yet now, being struck by a cultivator from nowhere was a humiliation for the proud Profound Nine Yin!
"Hmm? A sword cultivator?"
"Just in time! My Gold Attribute Technique lacks powerful sword cultivator Sword Intent to devour!"
Qin Ming’s gaze sharpened, aiming at the yellow long sword in the opponent’s hand, clearly a top-tier ancient treasure!
The sword was three feet seven inches long, entirely silver-white, with liquid Netherworld Ghost Fire flowing across the spine, remarkably eerie.
Swish!!
Without another word, Profound Nine Yin activated Sword Technique!
Instantly, the surrounding world dimmed.
Countless terrifying killing Sword Intents coalesced, forming a massive Sword Array!
All-encompassing Sword Aura even encompassed the entire Black Obsidian Peak.
"Daring to kill my people before me."
"Today, I’ll show you what is truly—Netherworld Sword Realm!"
Clang!
Huang Mengmeng Sword Qi surged like the reversing Netherworld Celestial River, annihilating toward Qin Ming.
Every drop of Netherworld water carried vast Sword Qi; even Divinity Transformation Stage would be scattered and disperse when hit.
Under the hand of the Venerable Divinity Transformation, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi around Qianji City began to tremble violently.
Causing the cultivators inside the city to take notice, utterly shocked.
As the saying goes, Immortals fight, affecting bystanders... causing each one to be terrified.
Some Low-Tier Cultivators couldn’t withstand the Spiritual Pressure released, fainting on the spot.
"What’s happening?!"
"How could there be Divinity Transformation combat within Qianji City?"
In distant lands, the hurried Venerable Nether Bone and the bald elder rushed towards Qianji City, sensing the fluctuations of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, exceedingly bewildered.
"This aura is late-stage Divinity Transformation!"
Immediately, both paused their steps, daring not to advance.
"Could it be Netherworld Sect’s Profound Nine Yin?"
"Is he mad, daring to defy the Peace Order of Profound Celestial Sword Sect? Is he not afraid of his sect being exterminated?"
"And why so recklessly in Qianji City of my sect? Who is the opponent?"
A series of doubts surrounded them.
This level of combative engagement was clearly beyond their expectations.
Even if they rushed over, they probably weren’t opponents, perhaps even perishing there.
Venerable Nether Bone’s expression was uncertain, immediately taking out a Command Token, sending an urgent message back to Netherworld Ancestor in the mountain gate, detailing the emergency here.
...
Elsewhere.
Qin Ming, seeing the approaching Netherworld Sword Realm, formed a Seal Technique with the Vajra Demon Form.
In an instant, his Demon Body transformed again, becoming a Mountain Giant Ape.
Roar!!
The Mountain Giant Ape, with silver hair emitting ancient Wild Beast aura, beat its massive chest, roaring furiously toward the sky.
Immediately, its huge body crouched and leaped up!
Instantly.
In the skies above, a giant fist with silver keratin burst through the dark clouds, descending with ruinous force!
Bang!
Countless black lightning erupted; this came from the Ancient Ape Ancestor’s Heaven-Dropping Strike!
The towering silver ape grasped the great sun, unleashing its terrifying aura.
The entire Qianji Immortal City was shrouded in black light.
Boom!
In a moment, blinding light consumed all, obscuring any view of what transpired.
Only a silhouette was blasted away like a rag, its Defensive Artifacts and Protective Spirit Shield shattered on impact.
Under the punch of Qin Ming’s Mountain Giant Ape, the once grand Netherworld Sword Realm instantly collapsed.
Profound Nine Yin’s physical form couldn’t withstand such terrifying power, and in an instant was blasted, reduced to a mist of blood...
Countless Netherworld Sword Qi slashed at the thousand-foot-tall Mountain Giant Ape, but failed to make a ripple.
Qin Ming’s gaze flickered; if not for conserving power to protect Black Obsidian Peak’s flora, Qianji City might not have survived...
However, he knew, as the celestial talent of Netherworld Sect, Profound Nine Yin didn’t die easily, so he opened Cyan Emperor’s Dharma Eye, scanning ahead.
Sure enough.
Not far above, Profound Nine Yin’s Lifebound Spirit Sword gathered his blood into his form.
Though looking severely drained, eyes showed disbelief:
"How is that possible?!"
"If not for my Netherworld Annihilation Reincarnation Secret Technique, enabling rebirth through Lifebound Spirit Sword, I would have died from that punch."
"How could such terrifying Body Refining Technique exist in Demon Ancient Wasteland?"
Profound Nine Yin couldn’t believe his vaunted Netherworld Sword Dao couldn’t breach the opponent’s physique, let alone pose harm.
Instead, he barely avoided dying with a punch.
Yet to cast Nirvana Reincarnation Secret Technique, he consumed significant lifespan...
Facing this ordinary-looking cultivator was his greatest danger thus far.
Such powerful cultivators within Divinity Transformation Stage were unprecedented.
In crisis, Profound Nine Yin disregarded everything.
Focused on confronting the foe was paramount.
Resolutely, he stowed the previous yellow long sword.
Next moment.
An ancient-looking Sword Box suddenly appeared in his hands.
Its appearance made even Qin Ming’s brow raise, judging by its aura.
Indeed, it was a Tier Five Spirit Communication Treasure!
