Number One Extreme Yang and Extreme Heat
Chu Yang, as if learning nothing from the previous ordeal, continued to direct Nine Heavens Sword, slashing down the sword luster at Heavenly Born Holy Man.
Heavenly Born Holy Man’s gaze did not reveal any signs of contempt or despise, as he could clearly sense that Chu Yang’s new attack, compared to in the beginning, seemed to have been ameliorated.
From the perspective of the energy level, there was no improvements. But from the spiritual and meaning level, there seemed to be a breakthrough.
It was as if something was germinating in the soil.
The epiphany of the spirit was the opportunity needed by Nine Heavens Sword. Naturally, Heavenly Born Holy Man knew that it was precisely the interaction of his Cheng Heaven Great Void Celestial Light with it that induced such a change in Nine Heavens Sword.
Just one contact, that bottleneck seemingly loosened slightly. The fulfillment of Nine Heavens Sword’s destiny was no longer a pipe dream. It was finally within reach now.
Seeing Nine Heavens Sword’s luster growing ever brighter, Heavenly Born Holy Man’s gaze gradually darkened.
His figure fluttered as he went into hiding in a virtual world, seemingly to have left this world behind. Although his silhouette was still visible, his presence could no longer be detected.
Indeed, it was Great Void Sect’s great ultimate spell – Dimensionless Transformation.
Inside the Crucibe of the Divine Lands, Chu Yang’s expression was serious and focus. Weaving the sword mantra with his hand, Nine Heavens Sword’s luster flickered. Shockingly, it also became ethereal.
Between the rise and fall and changing of the galaxy, it seemingly also broke free from this realm. However, it locked down Heavenly Born Holy Man with great accuracy and still sliced at him.
Heavenly Born Holy man’s expression was unfazed. A dash of light deflected off his forehead, like a mirror. The reflection of the mirror landed on Nine Heavens Sword’s luster.
The reflection of the mirror was like a gaze, harboring a trove of emotions. Sadness, admiration, joy, hatred, all showering those before it. It was as if in the whole world, the emotions of all beings, and the thoughts in their mind, converged and crashed down.
Within these thoughts, there was one devoid of sadness or happiness, without anger or resentment. Peaceful and carefree, it governed over everything, having absolute control over all the other thoughts.
The emotional and emotionless merged into one, impossible to tell apart. Like the divine ways from above, it was a magnanimous, selfless love. But it was also cold and without desires, silently watching over all beings.
Under the radiance of the mirror’s light, the sword luster’s nine heavens galaxy seemed to have slowed slightly. But it, it raced ahead and continued its dash towards Heavenly Born Holy Man.
Unexpectedly, Heavenly Born Holy Man stepped forward and removed himself from the state of mirage. Returning to the real world, he climbed higher, and higher. Under the cover of Heaven-Ascending Spell, he dodged the sword luster by a hair.
Crucible of the Divine Lands produced layers of holograms. Like the sleepy land, waves of brownish-yellow currents dispersed in all directions, shrouding the surrounding dimension, seemingly trapping Heavenly Born Holy Man within.
Heavenly Born Holy Man did not seem to mind. Despite the collaboration between Crucible of the Divine Lands and Nine Heavens Sword, he could still handle them with relative ease.
Although he was somewhat exhausted from his entrance and departure previously, as well as forcibly breaking through Supreme Yin-Yang Void Formation Twice. But if Luo Qingwu and Chu Yang wanted to defeat him, it would not be a walk in the park, let alone vanquishing him or capturing him alive.
As Nine Heavens Sword had not completely fulfilled its destiny and Crucible of the Divine Lands was not exclusively forged for Luo Qingwu, although the combined strength of both are tremendous, there are tiny gaps when they teamed up.
As long as Heavenly Born Holy Man remained patient, it would not be impossible for him to break free.
However, if he slowly dealt with them and while away time here, it would undoubtedly be extremely disadvantageous for Heavenly Born Holy Man.
Let alone the possibility of Great Void Sect cultivators catching up to him, the fact that Heaven-Destroy Sword was yet to show up made Heavenly Born Holy Man exceptionally cautious.
Xuan Li’s existence in the Greater World was a guillotine over the top of the head of Celestial Sect of Wonders’ many enemies as it could land that lethal blow any moment.
Especially since Origins Dragon King was defeated and returned to the Black Sea, nobody had any leverage over Xuan Li. Hence the threat was all the more prominent.
Moreover, although Shi Tianhao did not participate in the hunt for Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage, Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage, and Shen Dragon King, instead heading for the Netherworld Sea. There was no guessing whether he and Xiao Yan, who was in the Netherworld Sea in the first place, would return to the Divine Lands any time soon.
Heavenly Born Holy Man was in refuge for a long time, but he made sure to catchup on what was going on in the outside world. He was aware that in the Netherworld Sea, Emperor of the Dead and Wu Mengqi held Xiao Yan hostage. However, he had no idea how the situation might have panned out and for him, it was a threat he had to take into account.
Dragging the battle on would obviously do him no good. Hence, after another glance at Crucible of the Divine Lands, Heavenly Born Holy Man abruptly clapped his hands together and Cheng Heaven Great Void Celestial Light appeared once more.
That mysterious and unpredictable, indescribable, complex, and finnicky light enveloped his entire body, deflecting Nine Heavens Sword’s luster
Subsequently, Heavenly Born Holy Man’s body fluttered. Again, an identical hologram of himself appeared.
As the hologram vibrated, it vanished without a trace. While it silently bore a hole in the realm under Crucible of the Divine Lands.
Heavenly Born Holy Man’s figure blinked and turned into a dashing light, making its way to the outside in an attempt to escape far, far away.
On the Crucible of the Divine Lands, Luo Qingwu stared at Heavenly Born Holy Man’s figure and suddenly said, ” Tian Cang, take charge of the Crucible.”
Although Tang Jun was puzzled, he followed her order.
He was familiar with Crucible of the Divine Lands, as it was familiar with him. Previously, under the guidance of his master, Xiao Yan, Tang Jun refined pills in this treasure with his own hands. When Xiao Yan refined pills on a daily basis, Tang Jun also helped with it at times. Technically speaking, he was probably even more familiar with Crucible of the Divine Lands than Luo Qingwu.
Controlling Crucible of the Divine Lands, Tang Jun almost balanced the four dimensional realm. An abundance of energy and light shimmered, causing the crevice in the realm to regenerate rapidly.
Just like the land closing back together after it was fissured by an earthquake, it was going to trap Heavenly Born Holy Man inside.
Heavenly Born Holy Man’s expression remained unchanged, as Cheng Heaven Great Void Celestial Light coursed through his body. A black and white aura formed a protective cloud, guarding him as he made his way out.
But right then, Luo Qingwu suddenly raised her hand and a golden light soared towards the sky.
As soon as the light beamed up, Heavenly Holy Man’s heart sank.
He felt a burning sensation, so masculine, so Yang, so hot, and so scorching. That feeling was seemingly more scorching than rays from the sun up above.
With Heavenly Born Holy Man’s level of power, not many things could make him feel a strong, irrepressible sensation of coldness or hotness. Hence, there was no telling how much power was contained in that light.
Without even needing to turn around, Heavenly Born Holy Man could feel that within the light, there was an infinite and potent energy that was expansive and magnificent as a Destiny World.
Maybe it was not as thick and dense as Crucible of the Divine Lands, it was instead extremely masculine and unbelievably fiery, with an unmatched purity.
It was another Magical Treasure of Destiny!
“This woman has an Absolute Yin body, concealed with a secret spell, causing a lapse in my judgement,” Heaven Born Holy Man thought as he had a sudden realization. Scanning with his divine awareness, he saw Luo Qingwu raising one hand above and holding an object that was like the Sun, but even more scorching.
Others, like Chu Yang and Tang Jun dared not even look at it directly, lest they wish to suffer a stinging pain in their divine awareness, just as how a mortal being would not gaze at the Sun directly with naked eyes.
However, Heavenly Born Holy Man could tell that it was a golden orb, pure and without a single flaw.
This orb also did not contain a drop of cold Yin aura, only possessing the most absolute Yang aura.
Indeed, this was the immature Magical Treasure of Destiny that was nurtured under Mount Kunlun’s Yin-Yang Sea.
Not long ago, this Magical Treasure of Destiny was finally fully matured. Under Lin Feng’s refinement, it was forged into the number one pure Yang magic treasure of its kind in the history of the Grand Celestial Word – Nine Suns Glorious Pearl!
Extremely masculine and Yang, full of heat and blaze. Its powerful aura trumps destiny, and dwarfs the Sun, king of the nine planets.
The corner of Luo Qingwu’s mouth held a slight grin. Looking at Heavenly Born Holy Man, she swiped her palm and that Nine Suns Glorious Pearl striked from the back of Heavenly Born Holy Man!
That gruesome and violent force was unrivalled, even if the Sun fell to the ground.
Heavenly Born Holy Man sighed and stopped moving. The Cheng Heaven Great Void Celestial Light shrouding him became ever more divine and mysterious. Even the protective black and white cloud also lost its original color, instead resuming the form of Cheng Heaven Great Void Celestial Light.
Nine Suns Glorious Pearl blinked in the light, then changed its trajectory slightly and missed Heavenly Born Holy Man by a hair.
However, Heavenly Born Holy Man still felt a heat wave washing over him. More importantly, Chu Yang had controlled Nine Heavens Sword as the sword luster trailed closely behind, also on the verge of slashing at him.
Cheng Heaven Great Void Celestial Light blinked and the sword luster was diverted, instead slicing at Nine Suns Glorious Pearl. Both parties collided in mid air as Nine Suns Glorious Pearl flew backwards, while the sword luster was vanquished.
However, Heavenly Born Holy Man scrunched his eyebrows, not only because he sensed the heightening sword will of Nine Heavens Sword, but also due to discovering that when his Cheng Heaven Great Void Celestial Light came into contact with Nine Suns Glorious Pearl, it was partially dissolved.
The initially divine and mysterious and unpredictable Cheng Heaven Great Void Celestial Light lost its divine aura and bursted into an astounding firework, gloomy and cold, like an extremely Yin and purely Yin aura.
This extremely Yin and extremely cold light grated away the Yang aura of Nine Suns Glorious Pearl, but was also vanquished and non longer existed, without the ability to convert back to Cheng Heaven Great Void Celestial Light again.
Luo Qingwu flew up and retracted Xuanche Sword. With one hand, she casted a spell in front of her chest, while the other hand stretched into mid air to raise up Nine Suns Glorious Pearl, blocking off the escape path of Heavenly Born Holy Man.
On Crucible of the Divine Lands, Tang Jun sat still and worked this Magical Treasure of Destiny, creating a realm within a realm within a realm, shutting out their dimension from the outside world.
Inside the Crucible of the Divine Lands, Chu Yang let out a startling howl – he had called upon his Immortal Soul Avatar.
A nine feet and nine inch long, six inch wide broadsword appeared beside Nine Heavens Sword. The blade was decorated with golden inscriptions and within the inscriptions there were sanguine patterns and white patterns. The sword bathed in a mysterious glow, as crystal clear blue as water, like a galaxy.
This longsword fused with Nine Heavens Sword and both let out a resounding sword cry together, as rays of sword luster beamed out from within the Crucible of the Divine Lands, slashing down on Heavenly Born Holy Man.
Heavenly Born Holy Man put on a serious face. The situation at hand now might be too much to swallow even for someone like himself.
Luo Qingwu casted a spell with her hand and swinged it in the air. Consequently, Nine Suns Glorious Pearl striked at Heavenly Born Holy Man again, simultaneously taking down the enemy with Crucible of the Divine Lands and Nine Heavens Sword.
The epic battle between both parties, although taking place in the void, also startled others in the Greater Worlds.
However, without waiting for them to react further, there suddenly was a tremendous vibration from somewhere faraway in the Barren Expanses.
Coupling that, in the Divine Lands, Mount Baiyun, which Heavenly Born Holy Man just ravaged, started to boil over again seemingly without reason.
