Chapter 647: Holy Son Qing Yuan
The carriage’s interior was exquisitely crafted and luxurious.
A delicate, slender young woman in yellow sat on her knees to one side.
When she opened the curtains, she rose and stuck her head on the window, revealing her beautiful, melon seed-shaped face and eyes shining with faint purple light. They emanated a trace of unearthly charm.
“My lord, that Gathering Stars Realm kid isn’t simple.” The young woman looked stunned.
There was a soft bench on the other side of the carriage. A silver-robed youth leaned lazily at an angle, his hands fiddling with a black piece of beast bone.
When he heard that, he said slowly, “It’s not unheard of for Gathering Stars cultivators to kill Spiritual Manifestation Realm cultivators. I heard that in the Great Xia, several monsters of the ancient era can achieve that.”
He paused here and smiled, his icy, tawny eyes narrowing. “Of course, the greatest figure of the Great Xia’s younger generation is a young man called Su Yi.”
“I heard that on Sumeru Immortal Island, he slew an entire group of monsters of the ancient era who’d already broken into the Spiritual Manifestation Realm. He was still only in the Gathering Stars Realm. His strength is unimaginably terrifying.
“Not long ago, I hoped to visit the Great Xia and test Su Yi’s abilities for myself. I wanted to see just how capable he was.
“Alas, my master refused to grant me permission. He stubbornly prevented me from visiting the Great Xia, saying it was the most dangerous place in all of the Azure Continent and that if I went there, it was highly likely that something would go wrong.”
The silver-robed young man sighed.
“Su Yi…” The young woman’s eyes shone with a hint of longing. “I’d really love to see for myself just what kind of peerless figure he is.”
Whap!
The young woman in yellow took a slap to the butt. She recoiled, and she couldn’t help but cry out. Her delicate brow furrowed slightly.
“Huan’er, how dare you talk about wanting to see another man in front of me? You were obviously hoping for a spanking!” growled the silver-robed young man.
The young woman in yellow bit her red lower lip. Her beautiful eyes darted about, and she laughed, “Once this is over, I’d be downright eager for you to hit me to your heart’s content, my lord.”
She was beautiful to begin with, and her shy yet inviting, charming bearing sent waves through the silver-robed young man’s heart. A fire blazed within his chest.
But it was then that a calm voice rang out. “Meng Jinghai, you two should step aside. Leave these people to me; I’ll deal with them on my own.”
The silver-robed young man frowned.?This guy sure can talk!
The woman in yellow instinctively gazed outside the carriage windows.
……
The skies above Pinewave Plateau.
Meng Jinghai and Gu Shandu hesitated when they heard Su Yi’s orders.
Retreat?
Their opponents were two Spiritual Incarnation Realm yao cultivators!
Although they were both in the early-stage Spiritual Incarnation Realm, it wouldn’t do to underestimate their strength!
Su Yi had revealed enough power to kill Spiritual Manifestation Realm cultivators with ease, but who dared say with certainty that he could take down two Spiritual Incarnation Realm existences at once?
Up on Pinewave Plateau, the various experts gasped.
None of them would have guessed that Su Yi would decide to fight the entire group of yao cultivators from the Holy Church of the Caterpillar!
This decision seemed so crazed that they found it difficult to wrap their heads around it.
“Brazen!”
Shuo Meng was so angry that he couldn’t help but laugh.
A Gathering Stars Realm young man dared provoke every single one of them at once? No matter how he looked at it, the boy was seeking death.
On the other side, the curly-bearded elder drawled, “Everyone, get in formation and kill him!”
“Yes, sir!” The yao cultivators sealing off Cloud Terrace Spirit Mountain shouted their acknowledgment.
Instantly, an overflowing murderous intent locked onto Su Yi.
There were thirty-three yao cultivators. Five were in the Spiritual Manifestation Realm, while the other twenty-eight were in the Gathering Stars Realm.
Most terrifying of all, they’d joined forces to create a terrifyingly powerful combat formation.
The five Spiritual Manifestation cultivators were its core, and it gathered the power of the five elements.
The twenty-eight Gathering Stars cultivators stood on all sides, forming the Twenty-Eight Mansions.
All of their auras fused into each other, and their combined force was like a surging tide. A wave of yao qi blanketed the sky.
Their lineup alone was enough to make the vast majority of the experts quiver in terror.
However, it was as if Su Yi didn’t even see it.
Whoosh!
He rose like a whirlwind, his robes fluttering around him. At the same time, he seemed as casual as if he were out for a stroll.
“Kill!”
Within the combat formation, a black-robed, silver-haired man shouted coldly.
Boom!
The entire formation circulated, and dazzling, searing yao qi swept into the heavens.
The yao cultivators’ hands formed seals.
Arcs of divine light surged through the sky and fused into one another, forming a fully hundred-foot-wide giant palm imprint.
It was like the legendary Hand of a Demonic God. It was black as ink, with fingers like stone pillars. Baleful crimson lightning raged and stormed without limit at its center.
As soon as it appeared, the already blackened skies surged with streaks of crimson lightning, like undulating pythons. It was destructive and terrifying beyond limit.
The Baleful Yao God Seal!
It combined the strength of five Spiritual Manifestation Realm cultivators and twenty-eight Gathering Stars cultivators into one. Its power was enough to make any Spiritual Manifestation cultivator give into despair.
And now, this terrifying attack was bearing down on Su Yi!
Su Yi didn’t even look at it. He suddenly stepped into the air, his sleeves fluttering about. He used his right pointer finger as a sword and slashed through the air.
Weng!
Radiant clear Dao Light surged forth, transforming into a hundred-foot streak of sword qi. It intermingled the Dao Charms of wind and thunder, and the light of its edge charged forth like a rampaging bull, tearing through the sky.
Those present felt a stinging pain in their eyes, and terror filled their hearts and souls.
Before they could come to their senses, the slash descended and——
Boom!!
A heaven-shaking collision rang out!
The hundred-foot sword qi was like a beam of light. It cleaved through the baleful darkness as if it were rotten wood. The surging crimson lightning pouring down like a tidal wave shattered into pieces.
Then, it slammed into the thousand-foot Baleful Yao God Seal!
Bang!!!
The seal shook, and an eye-catching, perfectly straight rift formed on its surface. A moment later, it burst into fragments.
It was as if this slash had pierced a hole through the heavens with unstoppable sharpness!
“This…”
Everyone on Pinewave Plateau was dumbstruck and tongue-tied. Their hearts shook.
How could a single slash be so immensely powerful?
It was far stronger than the attack with which he suppressed Song Changhe!
“How is this possible?”
“What level of Sword Dao is this?”
The distant yao cultivators were all startled by its power too, and their ranks were in uproar. Their expressions were full of alarm and uncertainty.
With one slash through the air, he effortlessly destroyed their Baleful Yao God Seal. Who could imagine that this was the power of a Gathering Stars Realm cultivator?
But Su Yi didn’t give them any time to think. He was already fast approaching.
His sleeves billowed around him and, in the blink of an eye, he slashed ten times more.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
One streak of dazzling sword qi after another shot through the air, rising like rainbows. Each contained forceful sword intent, and they suddenly swept through the air.
They cleaved, sliced, swept, chopped, and stabbed…
It looked chaotic, without the slightest rhyme or reason.
In truth, every slash contained the profound and inscrutable Charm of the Dao, and miraculous power that seemed to steal fortune from the heavens.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Explosions shook the skies, and a current of destruction ran rampant.
As each slash descended, the yao cultivators’ combat formation was instantly devastated, as riddled with holes as a hornet’s nest. It quickly fell apart.
Agonized shrieks rang out, one after another.
As the combat formation collapsed, the cultivators forming it lost their lives beneath the onslaught of dazzling, forceful sword qi. They offered no more resistance than paper.
Sword qi swept forth, scattering sparks. Fresh blood fell like rain, mixed with chunks of flesh and various treasures.
To those down below, it seemed as if the skies were raining blood!
“My heavens!”?On Pinewave?Plateau, the various experts’ hair stood on end. All of them were astonished.
One attack, and he broke through the combat formation and executed a whole group of yao. Sword qi arced like a rainbow, and nothing could stand in its way!
This terrifying, bloody spectacle startled Shuo Meng and the curly-bearded elder mid-battle. Their scalps went numb, and they hurriedly tried to retreat.
How… How is this possible!?
Their combat formation was called the “Five Elements Constellation. It could suppress even Spiritual Incarnation Realm existences.
Yet now, one slash later, and the entire group fell!
Meng Jinghai and Gu Shandu didn’t pursue their opponents; they were stunned too. Both of them gasped.
“What are you just standing there for? Hurry up and retreat.”
Su Yu emerged from the bloody mists.
After killing the red-robed Mo Qing, he strode through the air, broke a combat formation, and killed an entire group of opponents. His steps hadn’t so much as slowed, not even once.
It was as if he were out for a casual stroll.
Yet when the others looked upon him, it was as if they were looking at a deity!
Meng Jinghai and Gu Shandu looked at each other. They inclined their heads at Su Yi, then hurried back into the fray.
Earlier, they were a bit uncertain of how Su Yi would fare against two Spiritual Manifestation Realm yao cultivators. Would something go wrong?
Now, all their worries had vanished.
The curly-bearded elder and Shuo Meng made no attempt to stop him.
Both just watched the nearby Su Yi with a mix of rage and alarm. Bewilderment and dread were written all over their faces.?Is he really just in the Gathering Stars Realm!?
The Molten Golden Lion pulling the carriage was ill at ease. Its enormous body quivered, and its hair rose in waves as it cried out, “My lord, this is bad!”
A harsh rebuke rang out.
“What are you freaking out about? Life and death are daily occurrences. Why are you panicking?”
When the crowd looked over, they saw a figure emerge from the ornate carriage.
He was dressed in silver robes, and he was tall and lean. His tawny eyes flashed like cold lightning, and they were terrifying to behold.
One of his hands fidgeted with a black beast bone, while the other was behind his back. He stood there, emanating wisps of blood-colored lightning, looking composed and perfectly at ease.
Like a monarch gazing down upon his domain!
A young woman in yellow emerged behind the silver-robed young man. Her skin was fair as snow, and she was a stunning beauty. Her bright eyes shone with faint purple luster, and she seemed utterly alluring.
When they appeared, the Molten Golden Lion instantly calmed down; it seemed to have found its pillar.
Both the curly-bearded elder and Shuo Meng inwardly sighed in relief, and their spirits soared.
And over on Pinewave Plateau, all eyes landed on the pair that had just emerged from the ornate carriage.
There was no doubt about it: this young man in silver was the lord” the yao cultivators referred to.
The Holy Son of the Holy Church of the Caterpillar, Qing Yuan!
