Seeking the Flying Sword Path Chapter 661

Chapter 661 - Sweeping Places

Translator: CKtalon  Editor: CKtalon

Qin Yun was shocked. Having accumulated so much merit through all the opportunities he encountered, he was still short of twenty percent? How was he to amass that?

“Still short by twenty percent?” Numinous Treasure frowned slightly.

“It’s already very remarkable that Disciple-Nephew Qin was able to amass eighty percent of a Merit Cardinal treasure,” Nüwa said. “Since Pangu split the heaven from earth, only a handful of Merit Cardinal treasures have been produced, much fewer than Connate Cardinal treasures.”

Connate Cardinal treasures were born out of the Chaos or refined by expending rare Connate Wonders. An example was the Empyrean Seal. Although Connate Cardinal treasures were rare to the point of perfected Great Dao experts not having one, Heavenly Dao realm experts typically would have a few on hand. They would bestow them to their disciples. For instance, the Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure had a quite a number of Connate Cardinal treasures.

There were dozens of Connate Cardinal treasures in the entire Three Realms.

But the number of Merit Cardinal treasures were far fewer, numbering only a handful. This was because there was only one source for Merit Cardinal treasures. One could only be formed by amassing merit for the Three Realms.

“You just need to kill two Star Destructions and that will be enough.” Nüwa chuckled.

“Star Destruction was invincible in Small Worlds back then. He reigned supreme for a long period of time and his sins were within the top five in the Three Realms. To find someone with sins that can match Star Destruction? And two at that?” Qin Yun felt the pressure.

There was only great merit in killing those with greater sins.

It actually had little to do with strength.

Among many perfected Great Dao experts, many of them had little sin and instead had accrued merit. Even if Qin Yun slew them, it would only erode his own merit!

“At present, the ones with that much sin in the Three Realms are all hiding away in the Tenebrous Fiend Abyss.” Numinous Treasure shook his head gently. “They are all very crafty and careful. It’s unlikely they will appear in the next three thousand plus years.”

“Oh?” Nüwa suddenly looked into the distant world outside.

“That is…” Numinous Treasure looked out either.

Qin Yun was left perplexed.

He was in Nüwa Palace.

His strength was still insufficient to tear through the obstacles placed by the palace to see the outside world.

“Nine out of the ten fiendish dominions have had their space sealed,” said Numinous Treasure. “The remaining one that isn’t sealed is the Great World that Boxun presides over.”

“Black Lotus is likely afraid, afraid that Qin Yun would storm into the Great Worlds of the fiendish dominions and wipe out the fiends there, allowing those Great Worlds to return to the Three Realms’s Heavenly Dao,” Nüwa said. “Now, space has been sealed ahead of time to prevent Qin Yun from entering.”

Qin Yun nodded. “I killed Daoist Wen, and now, the fiends only have Patriarch Blood Sea and Boxun as the remaining perfected Great Dao existences. They do appear to be struggling to protect their ten dominions. I had planned on storming into the fiendish dominions to pull a few Great Worlds back under the Three Realms’ Heavenly Dao. But now that they have been sealed… Although maintaining such a spatial seal is quite a huge burden, the fiends should be able to maintain it for a few thousand years.”

“The only one that isn’t sealed is clearly a trap.” Numinous Treasure sneered. “It’s just waiting for you to enter.”

“I know that myself,” Qin Yun said. “Boxun once fought the Buddhists for an extended period of time singlehandedly. Even after all these years of dormancy, there has not been any progress. He’s also not far from the half-step Heavenly Dao realm. In his Great World, the Fiendish Heavenly Dao envelops it. I’m unable to use the Heaven and Earth powers and my strength will drop by thirty percent. And if I take the initiative to enter, I will likely find myself trapped in an array formation that the fiends have set up. My strength will only drop further… To fight Boxun in such an environment?”

Qin Yun was not stupid.

Without any chance of winning, with a high possibility of dying, why would he do it?

“Black Lotus will likely restrain his subordinates in the coming few thousand years.” Numinous Treasure frowned. “It will make amassing great merit difficult.”

“I’ll have to accumulate it slowly.” On the contrary, Qin Yun was at peace with the situation.

When Nüwa saw this, she secretly sent a voice transmission to Numinous Treasure. “Numinous Treasure, it won’t be easy for Disciple-Nephew Qin to accumulate the last twenty percent of merit. Black Lotus will not give him an opportunity either. Now, the best solution for him… is outside the Three Realms. Have you ever told him the secret of the world outside the Three Realms?”

“Outside the Three Realms?” Numinous Treasure pondered for a moment and sent a voice transmission. “It’s still not time. I’ll let this disciple of mine accumulate as much merit as possible. If it’s really impossible for him to obtain a Merit Cardinal treasure in the Three Realms, it won’t be too late to tell him the secret of the world outside the Three Realms. After all, you do know that beyond the Three Realms… there are opportunities, but also massive horrors.”

Nüwa nodded slightly.

They were born out of the Chaos and knew more about the world beyond the Three Realms.

Qin Yun and his master left Nüwa Palace.

Once they were away from Nüwa Palace and its obstruction, Qin Yun saw everything from afar.

He saw that nine fiendish Great Worlds had their space sealed. Entry required one to fly in via space, but to do that might result in an attack by the Fiend Ancestor!

“What do you plan on doing next?” Numinous Treasure inquired.

“I’ll sweep the Three Realms first,” Qin Yun said.

“Sweep? Well said. It’s time to wipe the scourge.” Numinous Treasure nodded in approval.

******

Huifeng Great World.

Qin Yun returned to the Wei Nation’s capital to meet his disciple.

“Master.” the nine-tailed fox Qing Shuang was extremely delighted as she bowed respectfully. By her side, Princess Wei Ran was somewhat reserved as she bowed reverently, “Greetings, Sword Immortal Qin.”

He had slain Daoist Wen.

As a disciple of the Grand Supreme lineage, Princess Wei Ran knew how terrifying Sword Immortal Qin was.

Qin Yun nodded at Princess Wei Ran slightly before looking at his disciple. “Qing Shuang, do you plan on cultivating in the Huifeng Great World or cultivating in the Heavenly realm? I have an avatar at Mt. Lightning Roar in the Heavenly realm. I can give you pointers frequently.”

“I’m willing.” Qing Shuang showed no hesitation.

“Alright.” Qin Yun nodded before flicking his sleeve.

Hua!

Qing Shuang was directly sent to Mt. Lightning Roar in the Heavenly realm. This was still the first time he was bringing a disciple back. After all, Qing Shuang had broken through to the mid-stage Skyimmortal realm in the three hundred plus years he spent kill Daoist Wen. The disciples Qin Yun took in while traveling the Three Realms were mostly weak. To Qin Yun, only disciples at the mid-stage Skyimmortal realm could be considered as personal disciples. The weaker ones could only be considered as in-name disciples.

After settling in his disciple, Qin Yun looked in the direction of a fiendish Great World, one not among the fiendish dominions, from afar.

“Hmph. Fiend Ancestor, to think you hope that luck would be on your side.” With one step, Qin Yun traversed distance space and arrived in a Great World.

“Kill.”

Qin Yun stood high in the sky as he sensed the entire Great World with a thought.

He flicked his sleeve.

Thousands of dense Sword Qi tore through the void and crossed vast distances and descended upon one fiend after another.

“Hahaha, with this Myriad Corpse Cave, I’ve finally cultivated to the Skyfiend realm!” A thin black-robed elder roared with laughter. A Sword Qi flew out of the void and tore through his glabella. He widened his eyes in horror as his body was reduced to ashes.

“From this day forth, all of you are disciples of my Fire Refinement Fiend Sect.” Seated high on a throne, the sect master of the Fire Refinement Fiend Sect looked down at his newly recruited disciples. Just as he finished saying that… dozens of Sword Qi appeared out of the void. One Sword Qi tore through his glabella. He sat there without having even a moment to resist. His eyes were filled with despair and anger before he was reduced to ashes.

Instantly, dozens of Sword Qi tore through the grand hall.

The Elders and elite disciples inside the hall immediately died, each turning to ash. Only the weak juniors that had just been recruited survived the calamity.

“What happened?” The disciples who had just been recruited into the Fire Refinement Fiend Sect were dumbfounded seeing all the upper echelons of the sect killed.

Similar scenes happened everywhere in the Great World.

Sword Qi would suddenly descend, slaying one Skyfiend after another.

Regardless if they presided over an area, pulled the strings behind a country, or reclused themselves in cultivation… the Skyfiends of the Great World were wiped clean! Even for Essence Soul realm fiends who had sufficient amount of sin, Qin Yun would “take the effort” to wipe them out as well. He killed tens of thousands of them.

After killing millions of Skyfiends and tens of thousands of extremely sinful Essence Soul realm entities, he naturally had merit accrued.

Every individual bit of merit was nothing to speak off, but it was a lot when accumulated!

Furthermore, the foundation the fiends had in this Great World had been uprooted by Qin Yun! For a fiendish sect to not even have a Skyfiend in a Great World? Perhaps any random Skyimmortal could wipe it out of existence. It was impossible for them to survive.

“Next Great World.” A perfected Great Dao expert like Qin Yun just need a few seconds to wipe out all the fiends in a Great World. Following that, he would take a single step to traverse space and arrive in another Great World.

Years ago, Qin Yun had influenced countless Small Worlds in the twenty-six dominions. Now, he was taking action in the Great Worlds. What he wanted to do went beyond the ten fiendish dominions, he would eradicate all traces of fiends in any of the Great Worlds in the other dominions. To cross the fiends in such a manner was not about being a bully, but about triggering a complete table flip.

Few ordinary perfected Great Dao experts had the confidence to flip tables.

There were only a few in the Three Realms who were capable of doing so. However, they either couldn’t be bothered to do it as they viewed mortals as ants, or they had scruples. For example, although the Ancestral Dragon had the strength to do so, perhaps every dragon in the Three Realms would be hunted by the fiends if he did so.

Qin Yun had not been cultivating for long. The people he cared about were few. Furthermore, he had the Itinerant Immortal Heavenly Tribulations ahead of him and he was powerful enough. This gave him the right to do so.

“What?”

Deep in the Tenebrous Fiend Abyss, the Fiend Ancestor’s destruction body had a drastic change in expression.

Although he was also worried that Qin Yun would “take the effort” to sweep through the fiendish sects in the different Great Worlds, it was easy to make the Ancestral Fiends temporarily retreat to safety. But to summon back the countless Skyfiends in all the Great Worlds would be a massive endeavor! Furthermore, the situation the fiends had set up over all the years would be destroyed in a day. He’d willingly taken that risk.

However, Qin Yun had really done so.

“How shameless for an Itinerant Immortal lunatic to be such a bully. He even attacks those at the Essence Soul realm?” Fiend Ancestor raged, but he still gave the order, “Pass the order to disperse all Skyfiends in the Great Worlds.”

Although he had tried his luck, he did have the preparations to retreat in place.

However, it was easier said than done to have countless Skyfiends retreat.

Many were bound to be killed by Qin Yun. Many…

That day was a huge calamity for all the Skyfiends in the Three Realms.
