Chapter 737: How Is He This Strong?

“This strike is nearly at the might of the Heavenly Dao realm!” Boxun’s expression turned nasty as he immediately sent a voice transmission.

“What?”

“He is unable to use the Heaven and Earth powers in a fiendish Great World, yet he can produce strength nearly at the Heavenly Dao realm?”

“How is he this strong? This Qin Yun hasn’t even ignited his Essence Soul Dharmic powers!”

“Isn’t it said that Qin Yun is only good at his defensive sword array?”

The ancient existences were somewhat astounded.

They could tell at a glance that Qin Yun didn’t ignite his Essence Soul Dharmic powers. It was just a normal attack!

And in the entire Three Realms, among the experts under the Heavenly Dao realm, only Hou Yi’s ninth arrow of his nine successive arrows was capable of reaching the Heavenly Dao realm’s might without the burning of Essence Soul Dharmic powers. Even if other experts were to burn their Essence Soul Dharmic powers, they would still fall short of the Heavenly Dao realm. That was why Hou Yi’s arrow was famous for being terrifying. Furthermore, Qin Yun’s offensive means in the past were not considered powerful.

He needed centuries just to drain away at Patriarch Spirit Devouring.

And now, a normal attack of Qin Yun’s was probably at the might of the Heavenly Dao realm without roping in the Heaven and Earth powers of the surroundings.

“Let me try it.” Zhurong’s fiery-red hair flailed as his aura rose tremendously. He went forward and threw out a punch.

His fist was extremely fast like a meteor and it came with scorching flames.

He punched out!

Everything before it would be reduced to smithereens!

“Boom!”

The punch directly struck the surging sword beam tornado. Accompanied with a terrifying boom, the sword beam tornado was decimated. However, Zhurong looked at Qin Yun with a slight change in expression.

“As expected of God King Zhurong.” Inside the Misty Rain Array, Qin Yun smiled. “You actually have the might of the Heavenly Dao realm with a Essence Soul-burning strike! In the Three Realms, apart from Brother Hou Yi and I, you are one of the few who can produce strength at the Heavenly Dao realm.”

“Hmph.” Zhurong’s expression was ice-cold.

Who was he?

He was God King Zhurong who had once reigned supreme for a generation! He had made Ancestral Dragon shrink back and defeated Gonggong.

His body was extremely powerful. Back when Hou Yi burned his Essence Soul Dharmic powers to deliver one shot, although it did scare the just-released Zhurong, causing him to flee immediately, it would still have taken a few more arrow strikes to kill him. The strength of his body… was only second to that of Ancestral Dragon, and not by much. Furthermore, the strength of his body was not what he was best at.

He was best at using fire! In the early stages of the Three Realms, he was the most terrifying existence when it came to offensive attacks!

After being sealed for an extensive period of time, he had been cultivating all this while, gaining an increase in his strength. He also had the Torch Flame Kindling to study… Although he had not fully understood it, he had drawn some of its profound charms from it and strengthened his attacks.

By burning his Essence Soul Dharmic powers, he could produce strength at the Heavenly Dao realm!

“I never expected that after all these years, the juniors would produce Hou Yi and now you, Qin Yun,” Zhurong said coldly. “However, us old guys aren’t that easy to deal with. That punch just now was only my first attack. Try taking a few more of them.”

Boom!

Zhurong’s body phased as he transformed into a towering fiery god that seemed more blinding than the Supreme Yang star.

“Qin Yun, be careful. In terms of offensive attacks, Zhurong was number one in the Three Realms in the past. Like me, Boxun, Amita, including Gonggong, have figured out two perfected Great Dao. However, Zhurong’s two perfected Great Dao are fire-related. Now, he has studied your human’s Suirenshi’s Inextinguishable Torch Flame, which is also a fire-related perfected Great Dao. With him focusing on fire, it will only make his moves more terrifying,” Ancestral Dragon warned.

“I understand.” Qin Yun nodded.

All the mighty figures had their own paths.

Zhurong was considered very dedicated. All he did was cultivate in fire-related Dao! Connate Divine Dire, Supreme Yang Divine Fire, and now, he had reaped some benefits studying the Inextinguishable Torch Flame.

Qin Yun had a premonition that if Zhurong were to fully comprehend the Inextinguishable Torch Flame, the three fire-related perfected Great Dao would probably lead to a new Heavenly Dao realm.

Even now, Zhurong’s offensive means were still terrifying.

“Boom!”

The towering fiery god just took one step before he punched out, causing space to distort.

The arm was like a heavenly column, and the fist was as huge as a mountain.

The punch struck the Misty Rain Array.

“Chi! Chi! Chi!”

The terrifying impact was only secondary; what was terrifying were the flames!

The flames seemed to be capable of incinerating everything! Furthermore, it’s terrifying destructive power infiltrated the Misty Rain Array in a bid to destroy everything.

“Incineration, Destruction, Explosion, Penetration, Ceaseless Rekindling…” Qin Yun sensed the terrifying might of the flame. A pure flame at the Heavenly Dao realm was a lot more terrifying than the fire from the final Itinerant Immortal tribulation. However, the Misty Rain Array remained stable. Despite the fire burning on the surface, it failed to penetrate any deeper.

“Open up! Crack!”

Zhurong was abnormally wild.

Every strike was enough to shake the land as though a Supreme Yang star had been thrown and smashed over! It was so mighty that Zhurong was able to reign supreme in the Three Realms back then.

However, Qin Yun’s Misty Rain Array held fast, fully withstanding the attack.

“How terrifying!”

“Zhurong is very terrifying, but Sword Immortal Qin is even more unfathomable.” The mighty figures of the Daoists, Buddhists, and Heavenly Courts were all astonished from the scene.

Guan Yin smiled and said, “A normal attack of Sword Immortal Qin is already at the Heavenly Dao realm’s might if he can use the Heaven and Earth powers. Such strength is far greater than Zhurong’s.”

Everyone around her nodded in agreement.

Qin Yun’s potency left them delighted. After all, they knew the way he did things very well.

“Don’t drag this out any further. Everyone, attack!” Zhurong bellowed via a voice transmission. “Join forces to crack the Misty Rain Array and snatch the Misty Rain Sword!”

“Together.”

“Time to take action.”

It was already at a point of no return, like an arrow on a bowstring!

Zhurong, Boxun, Torch Dragon, and the other sixteen perfected Great Dao experts long had a plan. They were to rid of Qin Yun first! They would then deal with Hou Yi subsequently!

Although Hou Yi’s offensive means were terrifying, his defensive means were indeed weaker. Compared to Qin Yun, killing Hou Yi was a lot easier. Therefore, they were confident of accomplishing that by joining forces. But now, with Hou Yi in seclusion, he definitely had cave abode array formations to aid him in his own territory. As long as he didn’t leave, it was impossible to directly attack him.

Since Qin Yun had come storming the fiendish dominion’s Great Worlds, they held the terrain advantage and could use the opportunity to deal with him.

Little did they realize…

Qin Yun’s strength was far greater than they had expected!

“Crack that Misty Rain Array.” As Boxun condensed his Seven Emotions and Six Desires avatar, he controlled the array formation to aid the experts on his side.

“Hahaha, kill!”

“For the future, whether we reign supreme in the Three Realms or hide in the Tenebrous Fiend Abyss all depends on this battle.”

“Everyone, burn your Dharmic powers. Success or failure will all depend on this attempt.”

The Chaos Three Banes, the Seven Saints, and all the perfected Great Dao existences had their auras erupt as they burned their Essence Soul Dharmic powers and release all their strength.

They could not persist too long in a battle that involved burning Dharmic powers, but it was still tenable for a short period of time.

Instantly, there was complete chaos.

Boxun and the sixteen perfected Great Dao existences attacked the Misty Rain Array at the same time.

And Zhurong and Torch Dragon were the main forces in this attack! Although Boxun was a half-step Heavenly Dao realm, he only commanded the Seven Emotions and Six Desires. The avatar he condensed only had strength, but the profundity involved in its direct attacks was a lot weaker.

However, the other two were different.

Torch Dragon phased into a massive coiled dragon, in no way inferior to Ancestral Dragon. He too burned his Essence Soul Dharmic powers and charged at the Misty Rain Array.

“Yin Yang Divine Light! Crack!”

At that moment, space and time around Torch Dragon were warping.

That dragon swipe… split the Yin and Yang from the void!

It was as if the seasons were going in reverse as time flowed backwards!

By fusing Yin Yang into the evolution of the four seasons, Yin Yang Divine Light was formed. This was a move which Torch Dragon took many years to figure out and was known as Nothing Is Indestructible! Even a Connate Cardinal treasure, if left uncontrolled by a master, could be disintegrated by the Yin Yang Divine Light.

“Chi! Chi!”

The dragon claw swiped and, with the might of the Yin Yang Divine Light, the Misty Rain Array began to crack.

And the fire god that Zhurong had conjured smashed over with a mighty fist! If the strike struck the already-cracking Misty Rain Array, there was a chance of completely shattering the barrier.

“Oh?”

Qin Yun’s expression changed.

Boom!

He immediately burned his Essence Soul Dharmic powers! As he burned his Dharmic powers, the might of the Misty Rain Array rose exponentially. The cracks were immediately mended.

“From the looks of it, sweeping through these demons and monsters will require the burning of Essence Soul Dharmic powers,” thought Qin Yun. He originally believed that his defensive means made him invincible in the Three Realms, allowing him to reign supreme even without burning his Essence Soul Dharmic powers. But who knew that there would be Torch Dragon. Even when he burned his Essence Soul Dharmic powers, his might failed to reach the Heavenly Dao realm and did not reach Zhurong’s domineering might. However, each claw of his concealed the might of Nothing is Indestructible which disintegrated all things.

It was best at destroying all defenses.

However, after Qin Yun burned his Essence Soul Dharmic powers as well, with his present realm, even Heavenly Dao realm existences would find it difficult to crack his defense. Zhurong, Boxun, Torch Dragon, and company naturally had no chances.

“This Qin Yun has also burned his Dharmic powers. The Misty Rain Array’s might has increased tremendously. There’s no way of cracking it,” said Torch Dragon anxiously via a voice transmission. He could sense that after the first cracks that appeared in the Misty Rain Array, it became extremely stable and now he couldn’t cause a single chink.

“This Misty Rain Array is far stronger than we expected,” added Torch Dragon.

“Brother Zhurong, what do we do now?” inquired Boxun.

The other sixteen perfected Great Dao existences were also panicking.

“This Qin Yun’s strength far exceeds our expectations. Withdraw, quickly withdraw!” Zhurong sent a voice transmission as he made the decision.

“Alright, withdraw.”

“Let’s go!”

All of them immediately began fleeing.

“Today, all of you can forget about escaping.” Qin Yun’s voice resounded through the world itself as his gaze swept the ancient existences who wore looks of panic. The Misty Rain Array had long influenced the surrounding space, sealing it. “Since I came all the way to your fiendish dominion’s Great World, I’ll be wiping all of you out.”

Flying swords began condensing inside the Misty Rain Array and, with the burning of his Dharmic powers, each flying sword condensed resembled a real flying sword. Each contained a horrifying might within.

A total of ten thousand flying swords floated in midair.

This was the strongest offensive attack Qin Yun had figured out and he had named it Myriad Sword Killing Array. Ten thousand flying swords created an entire body with the Yin Yang Heaven, Earth, Man Great Dao as basis.

“Kill!”

Qin Yun shouted.

Ten thousand flying swords flew out, causing Boxun, Zhurong, Torch Dragon, and company to wear nasty expressions. Even the Chaos Three Banes, the Seven Saints, and the other six perfected Great Dao existences were horrified and feeling regret.

“If I knew this would happen, I wouldn’t have participated in this.”

“How is this Qin Yun so strong? He is able to beat us all alone?”

“Thankfully, I still have two avatars elsewhere.”

These ancient existences did not hesitate to flee. Having lived to this day, perhaps their offensive means were ordinary, but their life-preservation means were very impressive. Some of them had life-preservation means no less inferior to the Elder Yellowbeard.

The Myriad Sword Killing Array was extremely fast, far exceeding the speed of their flight. Before they could get very far, ten thousand flying swords enveloped these ancient existences.

“Blood Sea!” Zhurong bellowed angrily as he looked at the ten thousand flying swords surrounding him.

Among the perfected Great Dao existences, there were some who didn’t have avatars.

Zhurong himself didn’t have one! If he died here, he would be completely gone. In the past, he was powerful, but Goddess Nüwa was stronger than him. However, she had only sealed and suppressed him. Hou Yi’s nine arrows were terrifying when he ignited his Essence Soul, but all he did was shoot out his first arrow. Before he could even shoot his second arrow, he had suffered a sneak attack from Daoist Lu Ya. Back then, Zhurong also managed to escape.

But at that moment, Lu Ya wasn’t here to help! Qin Yun clearly wasn’t someone who would be softhearted and irresolute.

Zhurong naturally turned flustered.

“Sword Immortal Qin.”

In the entire Six Desires Great World, a loud voice suddenly sounded. A gigantic face appeared high in the sky, and it was none other than Patriarch Blood Sea’s face. He looked down and said, “Have you gained my permission to kill them?”

With that said, churning powers of darkness surged into the Six Desires Great World like a black tidal wave as it rushed towards the sword array.

“Patriarch Blood Sea?” Qin Yun pricked up his brows.

“Patriarch Blood Sea is now helming the Tenebrous Fiend Abyss. With the Fiendish Heavenly Dao enveloping this area, this is his territory. He is easily able to direct the Tenebrous Fiend Abyss’s powers here,” said Ancestral Fiend.

Qin Yun obviously knew.

However, he still thought nothing of Patriarch Blood Sea.

Even with the augmentation of the Tenebrous Fiend Abyss’s powers, he was only at the half-step Heavenly Dao realm.
