Chapter 651: Immortal King Realm
Yu Nianzhen’s attack wasn’t a pure sword attack.
Instead, it was a combination of sword intent and soul power.
Although the opponent’s soul shield was sturdy, it was nothing compared to Yu Nianzhen’s attack.
Soon after the sword light collided with the shield, the soul shield melted and the attack hit Kong Yunfei’s soul.
"My main soul won’t let you go." The soul shouted.
"Stupid." Yu Nianzhen sneered and watched as the soul turned into nothing.
"Azhen, are you okay?" Jiang Yue asked from within the sword intent barrier.
"I am okay." The swordsman said.
At the same time, he continued to unleash more sword lights, killing the surrounding broken souls.
"What a pity." Jiang Yue lamented.
However, he didn’t blame Yu Nianzhen.
Although it was a pity that so many people could not enter the reincarnation cycle, there was nothing that could be done.
Over the next five days, Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue walked around the secret realm, destroying all the broken souls.
Unfortunately, they eliminated the broken souls but couldn’t deal with the death qi.
"We need a Buddhist artifact to purify the aura." Jiang Yue said, looking at the gloomy environment.
"We may not be able to eliminate the death qi even if we have a powerful Buddhist artifact. Let’s seal the secret realm and leave the rest to Xuan Ke and other monks." Yu Nianzhen suggested and Jiang Yue nodded in agreement.
The two left the secret realm soon after and promptly sealed the entrance.
"Senior Yu, Senior Jiang." Shangguang Hu and the others greeted as soon as the two appeared.
"What’s the situation?" Jiang Yue asked.
Hearing the question, Shangguang Hu smiled; his eyes filled with admiration.
"Five days ago, Kong Yunfei was seriously injured and his cultivation began to decline. He lost his mind soon after and began slaughtering the disciples of the Black Tripod sect. Unfortunately, he was killed before he could do much damage."
"I see." Jiang Yue nodded before his face turned solemn.
"This secret realm will be treated as a forbidden zone. No one will be allowed to enter from now on." He said, pointing at the entrance of the secret realm.
"We understand." The Cangxing leaders said.
"Jiang Yue and I are about to retreat. When we come out, the world will advance another level. Inform your people and let them be ready." The swordsman said and without waiting for the leaders’ reactions, he teleported away with Jiang Yue.
Back in the Zhenyue Archipelago, Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue went to the ancient palace.
"Two masters." XiaoLan greeted when she saw the two.
"Xiaolan, Azhen and I are about to retreat. The family will be in your care for the next several hundred years." Jiang Yue said and Xiaolan couldn’t help but be surprised.
"Did something happen? Master, are you injured?" The little butterfly questioned and subconsciously touched the contract to investigate her master’s injuries.
"I am not injured." Jiang Yue reassured and quickly continued.
"Azhen and I eliminated a threat and have suddenly gained a lot of merit. We need to retreat to absorb the gains and advance our cultivation."
"Congratulations." Xiaolan said and the two nodded.
Soon after, they went to the top floor of the ancient palace and quickly entered their small secret realm.
"I didn’t expect to receive so much merit and blessings." Jiang Yue said while looking at Yu Nianzhen.
"Me too." Yu Nianzhen nodded.
Originally, he and Jiang Yue planned to enter the foreign devils’ battlefield.
However, the sudden influx of merit advanced their cultivation and both were at the critical point of breaking through.
"Let’s retreat first. Everything else can be sorted out after we come out."
"Good." Jiang Yue agreed.
Their private secret realm wasn’t very large.
At a glance, it spun one hundred acres and only had a small bamboo hut in the middle.
At this time, the two entered the hut, sat cross-legged in their shared practice room, and piled a heap of origin source stones between them.
"Good luck." Jiang Yue said, smiling at his lover.
"You too."
After looking at each other for a moment longer, the two closed their eyes and began to meditate.
Time passed in the blink of an eye and before they knew it, it was three hundred years later.
On this day, the surrounding immortal qi began to riot.
At the same time, a wide river of qi began rushing into the bamboo hut.
Barely an incense stick later, another river appeared and also rushed into the hut.
This phenomenon continued for seven days and didn’t stop until two men opened their eyes.
"I have advanced to the immortal king realm." Jiang Yue excitedly said.
"Just the immortal king realm?" Yu Nianzhen asked, his lips curled in a teasing smile.
"The peak of the immortal king realm." Jiang Yue clarified and suddenly broke into laughter.
"It turns out that doing good is a virtue. Azhen, we should do more good."
Yu Nianzhen laughed when he heard this.
However, he didn’t take Jiang Yue seriously.
After all, he and Jiang Yue were the same kind of person.
Although doing good was a virtue, neither was interested in actively being a do-gooder.
"Congratulations." He said instead, rubbing his husband’s hair.
"You too. Congratulations. Azhen..."
"What?" The swordsman pulled Jiang Yue into his arms and passionately kissed him.
"I have missed you." He said.
"Me too."
While the two were reconnecting, the Cangxing world was experiencing another rebirth.
As soon as the two advanced to the immortal king realm, dark clouds appeared in the Cangxing sky.
Soon after, spiritual rain began to fall; nourishing the land and everything beneath the sky.
For some, the spiritual rain was a pleasant surprise but for others, it was a long-awaited blessing.
In the Zhenyue archipelago, Cangxing sect, Sword sect, One Hundred Flowers sect, alchemy City, and several other places, thousands of cultivators sat cross-legged and accepted the spiritual rain blessing.
At the same time, an old man and a bullock suddenly appeared in a stone cave.
"Old man, how are you feeling?" The bullock asked in a worried voice.
