Chapter 940: Ascension To Saint Level, Closing the Gap Between Men and Immortals!

Yun Yang made a prompt decision and retracted himself instantly.

Dong Qitian was the strongest opponent Yun Yang had ever faced directly in his life. He was even more powerful than Aunt Mei that he had previously encountered — much more powerful. However, Aunt Mei had never had that sort of killing intent towards Yun Yang.

However, the Dong Qitian standing before him was exuding a murderous aura that was not feigned at all — it would definitely be an extreme killing blow if he makes a move. Judging by their differences in cultivation strength, Yun Yang’s chances of survival would be extremely low despite having a multitude of divine elemental forms up his sleeve.

His wind cloud form and the others clearly had their unique perks, but though it might be unaffected by attacks from a blade or any sort of weaponry, it still had its limits. When faced with a ultra-powerful being like Dong Qitian, it was hardly effective!

Suddenly, this moment turned into the most critical and dangerous moment Yun Yang had ever encountered in his life!

Initially Yun Yang had rejoiced at his trip to Cangwu Union this time. Not only did he managed to obtain a lot of obscure scrolls, he had managed to largely replenish the most critical shortcoming of Residence Of Nine Supremes at the moment and also coincidentally enlisted the help of a great man. It was as if a deity himself had intervened and had decided to go back on his words, then out of nowhere, this entire situation transformed into a macabre attempt to take his life instead — pray tell how did this situation even came to be!

The greatest joys and woes of a person’s life comes in the most abrupt ways. It overwhelms one in an unexpected manner — it could suddenly turned into such an overwhelmingly terrifying situation without the slightest hint!

However, Yun Yang did not regret one bit at all.

Perhaps phrased in other words, there was no time to regret.

The more he registered the danger looming ahead, the calmer his deific consciousness became, as calm as ice and snow.

Yun Yang took a step back, then another. He had already heightened his movement speed to its maximum levels besides having his wind cloud form unactivated. However, Dong Qitian traced his movements the way a shadow does and used his immense aura to pin down Yun Yang securely. Like maggots deeply rooted in bone, there was no way to shake it off.

Taking one step out, Dong Qitian’s entire being planted himself right before Yun Yang’s nose. Looking down at him in a condescending manner as if he could just take Yun Yang’s life right away, he declared mercilessly, “There’s no need to struggle. Please just get on your way. When we get to hell, at least we can keep each other company. We’ll never be lonely.”

Before his voice could falter, Dong Qitian slowly lifted up one arm.

Following the gradual lift of his arm, Yun Yang felt the pressure on his body growing bigger and bigger, heavier and heavier, as if there was a huge mountain pinning him down. He was unable to move.

Knowing that he was at the brink of death, Yun Yang desperately activated the mystical Qi within his body and pushed it to its limits while Emmie assisted wholeheartedly within his spiritual consciousness. Both of them were aware that they had arrived at the final point of life before their eyes — they were gripped with a sense of fatality they had never encountered before.

The entire reserve of mystical Qi Yun Yang could muster was activated rapidly in an unprecedented speed.

In a state where his limits were pushed even beyond their existing boundaries, Yun Yang could even hear the swooshing sounds of mystical Qi coursing through his meridians at top speed. The previously dormant strength in his body inflated to record-breaking points in light of the looming threat of death ahead, flowing incessantly in waves, pushing far beyond even the peak of his existing state.

However, the pressure inflicted by Dong Qitian was still unbearably heavy and the murderous aura was even more concentrated than ever; no matter how much Yun Yang increased and mustered the power to exceed his body’s limits, he could not untangle himself from this deadly threat!

Instead, it felt as though he was pinned down even more severely, a sensation as if it would be extremely tough to even turn himself around.

Yun Yang knew that he could not be intimidated by this threat of death. Endless Divine Art was activated to its maximum levels. At the same time, he allowed all his divine elemental forms to be unleashed all at once, attempting to go all out to seize a chance of survival. However, that monstrous pressure had already blocked up a ten-feet radius worth of space from Yun Yang’s position, completely sealing off his divine elemental forms and giving him no chance to unleash them at all. Even with the offset from utilizing Endless Divine Art, his efforts were futile.

Dong Qitian looked at Yun Yang with emotionless eyes. “It’s pointless. No matter how much you struggle, the difference between our strengths is too huge. Everything you could come up with will be pointless! Just resign yourself to death.”

Resign myself to death?

Yun Yang suddenly let out an earth-shattering roar. “I, Yun Yang, am never a person who will just succumb to death! When have I ever yielded to anything in this vast world?! Who do you think you are, Dong Qitian? How dare you ask me to succumb to death?”

Letting out a savage shriek, the aura he bore increased in a shocking amount from its existing peak state, squeezing out potential that extend beyond his limits. He puffed out his chest rapidly as if his life depended on it , and with what sounded like crashing waves, Divine Edge appeared in his hand suddenly with such formidability to greet his opponent!

Boom!

A monstrous aura mushroomed from the ground and swept outwards radially, flattening the landscape around them!

Dong Qitian burst into laughter when he saw that and quickly pulled back. He leaped a hundred feet away in a miraculously fast speed, crossed his arms as he stood firm and tall, then gently chuckled, “Not bad! Really, not bad at all!”

He really meant it when he declared to pull back, but he made it sound so easy. The pressure, murderous aura and the spatial restraint instantly vanished without a trace in seconds.

Everything went back to a peaceful state!

However, Yun Yang didn’t feel too good after that, for he had maximised his aura beyond his limits earlier, increasing them to extreme levels where he had not even been able to control. Then, he lost his opponent just like that — the mystical Qi of his entire being had nowhere to release and instead surged upwards like boiling water.

In this moment, Yun Yang only found himself flitting between consciousness as mystical Qi coursed through his entire body in a backward flow, seeping through his meridians.

As the massive pressure that was inflicted on Yun Yang had vanished just like that, the mystical Qi forcefully mustered by Yun Yang could not find a way of release and instead flowed backwards. His internal organs were injured and blood spurted out of his mouth and nose instantly. The monstrous energy was momentarily stagnated because of that, then erupted like an exploding bomb all at once!

At this point the danger in this situation seemed to be defused as Dong Qitian had tuck the threatening murderous intent away, but Yun Yang seemed to be in a condition that was even worse than before. Even without aggravating it further, his mystical Qi was spiralling out of control and erupting from his physical body. Although Emmie desperately attempt to inject him with air of vitality to counter the back-flowing mystical Qi that was seeping away in an alarming speed, its efforts were rendered useless. It was simply tough to turn the situation around.

Fortunately, a green light suddenly flashed above his head. Yun Yang suddenly found white lotuses blooming by his sides, and a sweet scent reached his nose, as if he was surrounded by a sea of flowers. The only sensation Yun Yang felt was that his entire body, every limb and bone were basked in an indescribably blissful state!

What happened was that Yun Yang had taken the most vital step beyond his level of Honor Level Four during this perilous phase.

He had ascended to the level of Saint Level One.

Though it was just the difference of one level and a step away, this tiny gap was often hard to cross over!

In the midst of this breakthrough, the remaining aura was still experiencing an increase. Yun Yang could clearly feel the original mystical Qi in his body dissipating completely due to the sudden backflow during the breakthrough. What that replaced it instead was a completely different sort of mystical Qi!

This new Qi was not in a very big amount, but the power it held within was almost tenfold from the one before!

An awakening from Honor Level to Saint Level was in fact undergoing a transformation at the most discrete, quantum levels!

Within moments of his awakening, his cultivation levels surged dramatically, yet the combat intent and mystical Qi that Yun Yang had accumulated earlier to peak levels had to be released, like an arrow already strapped in place on its bow!

He simply could not hold it in!

As if even without intent, a blade slashed outwards rapidly in one formidably savage attempt, targeting Dong Qitian precisely!

A sharp blast was sent towards the direction of Dong Qitian, who was standing opposite of him, in the form of a slash which was meant to kill, packed with a terrifying force within.

With slight movement, Dong Qitian evaded this strike easily. Following that, his face broke into a slight smile as he cried, “Congratulations, little brother, you’ve finally stepped pass the gap between man and immortals!”
