The cultivation experts from the Tianyi Sect truly are ticulous and extraordinarily ruthless. Even during the End of Dharma era, they managed to activate the Ten Directions Absolute Spirit Array, curbing any Tri-Floral Realm masters from using their final breath to retaliate against the Imperial Court. After all, once a Tri-Floral Realm master lashes out in their dying monts, they can easily destroy the entire Imperial Court.
Without the protection of this array, how could the Tianyi Sect dare to act so brazenly?
At this mont, both Immortal Won and the Heavenly Dao Sect’s Divine Lady Yun Feizi saw armored soldiers surging around them like a tide. Though their hearts burned with the desire to slay enemies, the Grand Array above their heads continued its operation, leaving their mana utterly depleted, not even a shred remained. They were powerless, their faces pale as death, despair flooding their hearts as they awaited the arrival of death.
"Ladies, it seems we’ve arrived at our dead end." Li Yi swept his silver eyes across the surroundings, then turned his gaze back: "If you have any regrets or unfinished wishes, don’t hesitate to say them out loud. Better to express now than to carry them into eternity."
"What regrets could I have? Throughout my life cultivating, I’ve seen much life and death and am indifferent to fa and fortune. The only thing I still hold dear is the legacy of the Heavenly Dao Sect. Yet events have co to this, and I understand that the heavenly fate cannot be defied. To die here today can be considered as exhausting my duty. My only sorrow lies in receiving Taiyi’s help to live a second life, yet failing to repay Taiyi’s kindness." Xuan Yuezi drew a deep breath, then sighed deeply, readying herself for the embrace of death.
Xiang Xiangzi gritted her teeth and said, "The thing I regret most in my entire life is adhering strictly to the principles of clarity and desirelessness in cultivation, never engaging in dual cultivation with a man. It’s said to be a very delightful experience, and I’ve always wanted to try it. I even deliberately learned dual cultivation techniques but never found a suitable Dao companion. After finally eting Taiyi, I had planned to break into his White Bone Temple one night and seize his primal essence, but alas, I couldn’t act in ti, and now I’m about to die. Truly wasted this lifeti of mine!"
"Immortal, can you not speak these beast-like words so casually?" Li Yi’s eyelid twitched.
"What’s so beast-like about this? Dual cultivation aligns with the Heavenly Dao." Xiang Xiangzi replied, then abruptly brightened up with a gleam in her eyes and said, "Ah, Taiyi, I have a good idea. If we move quickly enough, could we finish a round of dual cultivation before death overtakes us?"
"..." Li Yi.
This isn’t about moving quickly—it’s complete disregard for propriety.
"As the Divine Lady of the Heavenly Dao Sect, I bear the sect’s rise and fall on my shoulders. I failed to properly secure the safety of our elders, junior brothers, and sisters. My life has been spent in remorse." Divine Lady Yun Feizi also sighed deeply: "Since death is certain, let go first. Should I die last, I would have no face to et the ancestors of the Heavenly Dao Sect in the underworld."
Speaking thus, with a face of indomitable will, she actively strode toward the incoming armored soldiers, intending to sacrifice herself for her principles and et death calmly.
"Divine Lady, it’s far too soon to speak of death." Li Yi extended a hand to stop her at that mont before saying, "Do you know what my greatest regret is right now?"
The group looked at Li Yi, casting expressions of both confusion and curiosity.
Li Yi’s Qi-Blood surged as silver energy gradually seeped out from his body’s surface: "My greatest regret is that this ti, the Tianyi Sect should not have activated the Ten Directions Absolute Spirit Array. Because of it, the Daoist Skill I just learned has no opportunity to be used, leaving to return to the old ways of dealing blows with my fists."
As he spoke, the silver energy around him beca increasingly conspicuous, resembling a fierce fla burning upon his body.
This was his Qi-Blood energy.
As soone who cultivated multiple thods concurrently, even amidst the Ten Directions Absolute Spirit Array, Li Yi retained astonishingly formidable strength. His Martial Arts Cultivation did not weaken in the absence of Spiritual Energy.
"Taiyi, you... is this a new thod?" Xuan Yuezi’s face now bore an expression of utter disbelief.
She felt the emanating energy around Li Yi—there was no way it could belong to cultivators.
Xiang Xiangzi suddenly recalled sothing, her despair imdiately giving way to irrepressible excitent: "Yes, the new thod. Now I rember—Tang Yi, that bald-headed fellow, ntioned before that Taiyi brought a new thod to the Tao Court. At the ti, I didn’t understand what it was, and as ti passed, I forgot about it. Thinking back now, Taiyi is not a cultivator; it was on Dao Court Mountain where I transmitted and taught the Dao, and only after that did Taiyi achieve the Five Qi Realm."
"Of course, I’m not a cultivator—I’m a martial artist." Li Yi then reached out into thin air, grabbing hold of a wild gust of wind surrounding him. In an instant, the wind was suffused with silver energy, transforming into an exceedingly sharp Sword Gang.
The armored soldiers surrounding them were montarily stunned upon witnessing Li Yi’s body radiating silver brilliance. When the silver Sword Gang erged, they were struck with fear, shouting in sheer terror.
"This man still possesses Daoist Skill; he hasn’t lost his mana!"
"It’s a spell—he has spells!"
"Fire arrows! Shoot him down—don’t let him cast his spell!" Voices laced with terror spread like wildfire.
These armored soldiers, as re mortals, knew well the power of Daoist Skill. Even a novice cultivator could easily slaughter n equipped with armor.
"This isn’t a spell—it’s Gang Qi." Li Yi shouted with a thunderous voice, deafening the armored soldiers nearby, leaving their ears ringing incessantly and their vision dizzy with golden sparks.
In the next instant, he raised his hand and unleashed the silver Gang Qi in a slicing motion.
Gang Qi, indomitable and unstoppable, instantly cleaved the armored soldiers into two, blood erupting as their bodies collapsed to the ground. Their armor and long spears proved utterly futile, as these mundane weapons crumbled before the unparalleled might of Gang Qi, which cut them down like blades through straw.
