According to the information obtained from the Great Success Rank Evil, the headquarters of Taoyuan Village is located in a lawless zone outside the national border, devoid of any official jurisdiction or spies from the Luo Mountain forces.
After confirming the exact location, Liu Shuying sent a ssage via mana. I received it and shared the detailed image. In a lush canyon, so unsightly gray-white concrete buildings stood incongruously, decorated with various items resembling feng shui ornants, with nurous thick black cables laid out on the ground.
So personnel in camouflage uniforms were entering and exiting, maintaining the thick black cables and the nurous devices connected to them. The flow inside the cables was not electricity, but mana. I felt as if I could see the tangible energy flowing within. To ordinary people, they might just appear as thick black cables, but to , they shone with a dazzling cyan radiance.
Following the flow of mana, my gaze reached the depths of the building complex. In a spacious, open room, there was a silver-white tal chair in the center. The chair connected to those thick black cables, and a man was seated on it.
The man wore a cyan robe and had long black hair. All the cyan radiant mana flowed from him as the source. His eyes were closed, as if in a light sleep. Mana surged throughout his body, even tinting the tips of his hair with a faintly glowing cyan, occasionally with slight cyan arcs crackling off his hair tips and other parts of his body, wandering briefly in the air before vanishing.
This man was the Taoyuan Village Master.
I had previously seen the appearance of the Taoyuan Village Master in the investigation materials at the Luoshan Headquarters, but witnessing it with my own eyes in reality was a first.
Suddenly, as if the gaze of Liu Shuying and I pricked his cheeks, his eyelids twitched slightly, seeming as if about to open his eyes.
"Now, let’s go!"
Liu Shuying suddenly whispered sharply, and a dust-ford duplicate vanished from my side. At the sa ti, his real body seed to have ceased his unknown skirmish with Xu Gou and suddenly appeared at the headquarters of Taoyuan Village outside the national border, in front of the Taoyuan Village Master.
Almost simultaneously, I also took a step forward, traversing thousands of miles, moving to the sa location. The Taoyuan Village Master hadn’t fully opened his eyelids when I took out the Furnace Slag Straight Sword, released the flas contained within, and delivered my strongest strike.
It seed like the material constituting the sun had descended upon Earth, as the fla, dense enough to seem solid, bombarded the place where the Taoyuan Village Master was seated.
At that critical mont, Liu Shuying also unleashed mana that could swallow mountains and rivers.
This seed to be the first ti Liu Shuying had shown the substance of his mana, and with his first move, he couldn’t help but divide my attention a bit. It was like gray misty mana crazily surging from the space around him, turning into a blast like an asteroid impact, crashing onto the Taoyuan Village Master.
The form of this mana reminded of the gray mist of the Void Realm. Although the latter is not supposed to have mana fluctuations, the first impression Liu Shuying’s mana gave made it impossible for to consider it completely unrelated to the gray mist of the Void Realm.
Liu Shuying indeed has so unknown connections with the Void Realm and the divine seal.
With two imnsely powerful killing moves landing on the Taoyuan Village Master, the headquarters of Taoyuan Village and its canyon were utterly destroyed. A colossal dust cloud rose, the canyon structure was overturned, leaving a teorite-crater-like hole enough to redraw maps.
The rampant shockwaves and rolling heat turned this area into a zone forbidden to life; if an astronaut in outer space looked at Earth at this mont, they might witness the terrifying change on the planet’s surface clearly.
Not only was the natural ecology of this land itself completely destroyed, but even the believers of Taoyuan Village active at this headquarters were all evaporated.
While they were all mbers of the opposing forces, if Changan saw do this, he would probably have disapproving eyes, I reflexively thought. This was no longer a battle, but a one-sided massacre. Perhaps among them were those who had ti to turn back, those who were unwillingly involved, or those weighed down with a plethora of regrets...
However, I am not soone who acts according to friends’ expectations in everything. I have my own tendencies in acting, and I won’t make concessions at any ti. Being able to emit the light of humanitarianism on the battlefield might be a manifestation of kindness, and if it cos from a strong heart unwavering no matter what setbacks are faced, I would genuinely admire it. However, I am not inclined towards that approach.
I only want to focus more on the imminent issues at hand. Just now, Liu Shuying and I did hit the Taoyuan Village Master directly, but sothing felt off. It’s not that our attack was defended by him — there wasn’t a solid feedback feeling; on the contrary, I felt as if I hit a fluffy mass of cotton.
Liu Shuying seed to realize sothing was wrong even before ; his attack looked as committed as mine, with power nearly equivalent, but in my perception, he seed to experience so confusion at the mont of attack, not unleashing his true full power.
This indicates two things: First, Liu Shuying is obviously much stronger than I am, even with restraint, capable of matching my current maximum destructive power; Second, since we both apparently had a similar feeling toward the Taoyuan Village Master, it proves the battle is far from over.
At this mont, Liu Shuying and I are both suspended high in the sky, when suddenly, a sowhat familiar surge of massive mana erupted from behind . I turned around imdiately, seeing yellow-black intertwined mana, turning into a dragon the size of a train tunnel, surging towards .
Without thinking, I swung the Furnace Slag Straight Sword; the Sword Qi, matching Sun Fla in power, collided with it, creating an earth-shattering explosion, further aggravating the damage to the land turned into a pit. Naturally, such an explosion couldn’t harm my side, nor hinder my perception. I saw who launched the sudden attack; it was a man in a black Chinese-style formal suit, with lifeless eyes.
The opposition was Doomsday Great Impermanence from the Evangelical Institute, Huang Quan.
Since last ti, when we confronted each other across the river of ti, standing in past and future respectively, we finally encountered each other now and had the fiercest conflict.
However, he arrived too quickly.
Both Liu Shuying and I knew he had potential ties with the Taoyuan Village Master and knew he might arrive at the scene after our surprise attack on the Taoyuan Village Master; he still ca much faster than we expected and attacked nearly without warning. It was as if he had been lying in wait from the beginning.
While I blocked Huang Quan’s attack, Liu Shuying did not stand idly by on the side; he obviously wanted to cooperate with to take Huang Quan down.
Unexpectedly, another surprise happened — cyan radiance erupted violently from another direction, transforming into a colossal lightning bolt like the spear of a God, striking towards Liu Shuying.
Liu Shuying imdiately redirected his attack, turning the gray mist into a sharp slash that vertically split the cyan gigantic lightning in two. Taoyuan Village Master appeared intact in the direction of the attack, bursting with even more intense lightning from his body. What we hit earlier was perhaps just a pre-placed incarnation resembling the real body.
Overwhelming mana fluctuations spread centered around the Taoyuan Village Master, sweeping away the encompassing dust cloud, with even the air escaping, rendering this life-restricted zone further into a vacuum-like space resembling the cosmos.
Compared to the incarnation that clashed with before, the Taoyuan Village Master’s true body is much more powerful, the disparity possibly as vast as between just-beco Impermanence and Ming Zhuo. While the fight with Ming Zhuo had the Xuanming Fire as the breakthrough point, Taoyuan Village Master has no flaws, certainly not soone I can match.
