Bai Yun’s eyes flashed with a trace of surprise as the forefinger that was pointed at Shen Yuan’s brow bent and flicked against the spine of the Bronze Ancient Sword.
"Clang!"
The shattered squeal of tal clashing tore through space, the force of Instant Ti erasing the gathered montum of the union of the sword and Elental Qi, causing the longsword to tremble, its mottled rust scattering.
Although he had not succeeded in counterattacking, he had dissolved the Wondrous Tao Divine Power with this move.
"An Immortal Sword that subtly conforms to the Ti Path?"
A trace of astonishnt flickered through Bai Yun’s eyes.
If it could withstand his fingertip without damage, it must undoubtedly be an Immortal Sword.
However, Immortal Swords related to the Ti Path are also considered treasures in the Upper World; the fact that such a treasure had been preserved in the Primal Chaos Realm for ten thousand years was quite surprising to him.
"You do have good fortune, but it ends here!"
"In the Clarity Void sect, we are most adept at the Path of Refining Elental Qi. The Yuqing Thunder thod is far beyond what a lucky child who accidentally obtained the Heavenly General Great Divine Power can compare to," Bai Yun remarked with admiration while his hands moved unhesitatingly, changing the Five Thunder Seal, as a dark purple thunderbolt, akin to a heavenly pillar, crashed down from the firmant.
Wondrous Tao Divine Power·Clarity Void Divine Thunder!
The Clarity Void Divine Thunder, resembling a heavenly pillar, enveloped an area of several dozen miles, turning a vast expanse of sky into a sea of thunder.
Within this Clarity Void Divine Thunder not only was the mighty power of the thunder seen, but it also carried a trace of the official mandate from the canonical gods, which could be called universal destruction divine thunder.
Shen Yuan’s hand manifested sword light from the Darkness-Light Sword in an attempt to split the sea of thunder, but under the Clarity Void Divine Thunder, Shen Yuan’s Primordial Elental Qi and mana were both weakened to the extre, his perception of karma and Heaven’s Secrets completely obscured, as if he was muddled and on the verge of sinking into it at any mont.
At that mont, the Origin-purifying Xuanzhen Qi, which shrouded the heavens, descended, the Supre World Qi awakening the Spiritual Wisdom and stabilizing the core, allowing Shen Yuan to break free from the destined calamity.
The sword’s montum changed again in his hand as the Origin-purifying Xuanzhen Qi actively fused into the union of the sword and Elental Qi.
In that mont, Shen Yuan entered a state where his sword heart was translucent; the calamities swirling around him clashed and rged constantly with the Qi of heaven and earth protecting him.
After a long absence from threats, the sense of danger aroused Shen Yuan’s Sword Intent; the Earthly Destroyer Sword Technique, already one step away from the third realm, finally achieved a breakthrough.
With the sword following his heart, Shen Yuan rged with the blade, in the world between heaven and earth, it seed nothing could not be sliced through, nothing could not be shattered.
"Slash!"
The thunderous sea that had shrouded the firmant dimd at that mont, and the union of the sword and Elental Qi, driven by Origin-purifying Xuanzhen Qi, easily broke through the sea of thunder, the strands of the fateful calamity contained within the thunder dissipating.
All seed complicated, but from the falling of the Clarity Void Divine Thunder to breaking free from the sea of thunder, only a short mont had passed.
Shen Yuan, who had just escaped the difficult situation, imdiately took a step forward, traversing space with the Pot’s Heaven Divine Power and appearing at the other end of the sky, creating a distance between himself and Bai Yun.
Only at this point did Shen Yuan finally catch a mont to breathe from the brief yet fierce exchange.
After the brief encounter, Shen Yuan had confird that the young Taoist before him was not a real living being but a special projection created by a talisman.
The power carried by the projection was not strong; even after devouring the exhausted Xu Hao, it still only possessed the cultivation of the Spirit Refining Early Stage.
But the truly frightening thing about Bai Yun lay not in his realm but in the many Divine Secret Skills he had cultivated over his lengthy life.
At the very least, the Wondrous Tao Divine Power of the fourth realm ca easily to him. Whether it was Shrink Land into Inches, Instant Ti, or Clarity Void Divine Thunder, he had taken them to the extre, casually displaying Divine Powers that could serve as others’ trump cards.
The Wondrous Tao Divine Power executed with the cultivation of the Spirit Refining Early Stage could easily annihilate soone like the Return-to-Void Great True Being, Xu Hao.
And this was rely a montary exchange; given Bai Yun’s audacity to impersonate the Clarity Void Exalted One, he certainly must have more than these three Wondrous Tao Divine Powers.
If Bai Yun were to display a Great Divine Power later on, Shen Yuan wouldn’t find it odd in the least.
If it was just to this extent, Shen Yuan could easily slay him with the Divinity Path Emperor’s incorporeal persona, Gods Purging Divine Power, or even the Arrows Piercing Voodoo Strawman Divine Power.
But Shen Yuan was very clear that he was not only dealing with the Bai Yun projection at hand but also that counterfeit Exalted One who sat within the Little Clarity Void Grotto Heavens, an Upper Realm Immortal who had truly remained in the Primal Chaos Realm.
Bai Yun’s true cultivation was at least that of a Major Heavenly Immortal, and the possibility of having reached the Golden Immortal Stage could not be ruled out.
Facing such a powerful expert, eliminating just a projection of Shen Yuan was of no consequence at all.
Yet, if in the process of annihilating Bai Yun’s projection, he were to reveal essential cards like the Divinity Path Emperor’s incorporeal persona or the Arrows Piercing Voodoo Strawman Great Divine Power, it would undoubtedly raise the main body Bai Yun’s guard.
Once this suspected Golden Immortal-level counterfeit Exalted One beca vigilant, the next move would co with the force of thunder, and the possibility of forcefully breaking through realms to suppress and kill couldn’t be dismissed; this was sothing Shen Yuan definitely did not want to see.
Thus, even though he found himself in a tough battle presently, Shen Yuan had to keep his trump cards concealed and reveal nothing of his true depth.
As Shen Yuan pondered in secret, Bai Yun looked at him with great interest.
"Being able to struggle against for so long at the peak of Spirit Transmutation is indeed sothing to be proud of.
As a minor immortal from the lower realm, you are qualified to know my na,"
"My na is Bai Yun!"
Once he said this, the gentle smile on Bai Yun’s face changed again, his expression now had a hint of bloodthirst and madness.
"And now, you can die!"
Five fingers extended from his sleeve, and Shen Yuan felt the entire Secret Realm Square-Inch tremble, followed by a horrifying scene that alard all the trialists.
The firmant along with the shaking realm visibly began to collapse at an alarming rate.
Shen Yuan’s expression beca serious, and imdiately, an infinite crushing pressure descended upon him from the overturning heavens as Bai Yun’s hand seed to clutch the collapsing sky and smash it down on Shen Yuan.
Heaven Overturning Seal Divine Power!
Mountains and rivers shattered, space collapsed; under this great divine power, even the Secret Realm Square-Inch created through world-opening techniques could hardly sustain itself and was visibly moving toward destruction.
Hundreds of cultivators watched the chaotic Secret Realm Square-Inch in despair, shouting loudly:
"Retreat! I want to retreat!"
"Hurry and let retreat!"
However, to their horror, as the firmant collapsed, the rules of the secret realm designed by Shen Yuan could no longer be maintained, and the constellations could not shower down starlight to send the cultivators out of the realm.
Hundreds of cultivators frantically ran upon the earth, searching for a way to survive.
Above the sky, Shen Yuan’s current state was also at its worst, with all the power of the Heaven Overturning Seal pressing down on him.
His Yang God was locked, his Primordial Elental Qi, Mana, and Spirit Soul all suppressed by the Heaven Overturning Seal; at this mont, Shen Yuan was like an ordinary person, only able to watch helplessly as the collapsing firmant completely crushed him.
Facing what seed to be an inescapable plight, Shen Yuan instead smiled.
Shouldering the infinite weight, he looked towards Bai Yun in the distance.
"rely having consud Xu Hao, that withered body could hardly replenish the origin of your projection. Using those few Wondrous Tao Divine Powers was already the limit.
A pity that the Wondrous Tao Divine Powers couldn’t take down, and you don’t have much ti left, so you decided on a move to determine the victor.
The seemingly imposing Heaven Overturning Seal right now must have cost your true form a great price to execute, right?"
The smile disappeared from Bai Yun’s face, a glint of ruthlessness flickering in his eyes.
Indeed, as Shen Yuan said, this projection, which barely retained the power of the Spirit Refining Early Stage, was not capable of using the Heaven Overturning Seal; it was only by the true form expending a great amount of origin that part of the power was transferred and made it possible to be executed.
He was far from as at ease as he appeared on the surface.
But... so what?
Bai Yun looked at Shen Yuan as if seeing an ant about to be crushed.
He did not believe there was room for resistance under the Heaven Overturning Seal.
Bai Yun’s hand continued to fall.
In the distant sky, Shen Yuan looked towards the collapsing heavens and shook his head, saying:
"Even if you, with your Great Divine Power, can suppress with the might of Heaven Overturning, as the master of this secret realm would I have no resistance?"
As his words fell, the Primordial Elental Qi within the whole Secret Realm Square-Inch suddenly fell silent.
Despite being suppressed by the Heaven Overturning Seal and losing the opportunity to mobilize Mana and Spirit Soul, the Heavenly General Great Divine Power had already been inscribed into the True Spirit, how could it be suppressed by the Heaven Overturning Seal?
Between heaven and earth, the Qi of heaven and earth that evolves the world’s rules began to erupt, separating the both clean and turbid Qi, stabilizing the elents of earth, water, wind, and fire from all directions.
Under the guidance of the Nine Breaths Qi Absorption Great Divine Power, the Primordial Elental Qi that created this world transford into an unimaginable natural disaster, rushing towards the collapsing heavens above the sea of clouds.
The Great Dao trembled, and the destructive natural disaster fell together, the myriad transformations of the Path of Refining Elental Qi fully displayed here, taking the form of terrifying Dao-trace catastrophes.
Under the Heaven Overturning Seal, Shen Yuan slowly straightened his body and stood within the Dao-trace catastrophe.
"This is what you were looking for, the Nine Breaths Qi Absorption Great Divine Power!"
