Chapter 976 The half-step Immortal Empyrean Level
There was a smoldering cloud of debris that had appeared from the cliff where Ji Yuan was slammed into.
And of course, he had not died yet.
All of a sudden, a pair of hands could be seen crawling out from the hole that was newly created and two sword spirits could be seen shining forth from the back of both of his hands.
It was Ji Yuan that was crawling out and he was being enveloped by his sword aura which would be automatically be triggered when his profound aura was breeched by attacks.
He had an ugly look on his face and he looked like a disgruntled cultivator now.
Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui was startled that this man was not injured and instead he was displaying a fierce sword aura that was filled with his killing intents.
However Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui was not unafraid of Ji Yuan's killing intents because his very own infernal aura was also displaying a terrifying killing intent as well.
He merely grunted, "What is your name, puny celestial?"
Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui had rarely asked about the names of the celestials because he was an Abyssal and the Abyssals looked down on the other races.
Ji Yuan grinned as he stepped forward, "Great Saint Ji Yuan!"
He actually did not want to use up too much of his profound strength in this fight but it seemed that it was not possible anymore as he had realized how powerful the Abyssals were.
As he declared loudly his name, the two sword spirits on his hands had vanished and reappeared on his forehead again, combining into his Ultra Sword Spirit.
"This is not painful at all. Is this the best that you can do?"
Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui could now see that Ji Yuan was really not injured at all after he had stepped out of the smoldering debris and he was greatly startled that under the crushing might of his infernal profound art, this Ji Yuan could still emerge unscathed.
He snarled coldly as the ground beneath him started to shake violently with his profound might, "Then I shall lavish myself by bathing in your blood!"
Ji Yuan had a weird feeling ever since he had stepped into the Dark Abyssal and this weird feeling was further reinforced after he had experienced the infernal energies firsthand; it was as though he had experienced it before.
As he cultivated the energy cultivation, he suddenly had a better understanding of the spiritual energies, the desolate energies and also a minor understanding in the infernal energies.
As a matter of fact, he had suddenly gained a sudden Dao inspiration and all of a sudden, his cultivation had increased to that of the 8th cultivation realm!
Rather than saying that he had gained the 8th cultivation realm, it was better to say that Ji Yuan had created a false 8th cultivation realm that was higher than the current seventh cultivation realm of the sacred saint.
And Ji Yuan had decided to call this false 8th cultivation realm the Empyrean level or the half-step immortal level.
This insight was granted to him by his Lesser and Greater Heavenly Dao through his current cultivations as Ji Yuan realized that he could not depend on his desolate cherubim spirit animus to raise his cultivation strength temporary to the 8th cultivation realm in the Dark Abyssal Realm.
Because Ji Yuan had already been tempered by the 81 purple lightning tribulation, even consumed a Dao Fruit and had also fully completed his sacred saint golden core, he was actually considered to be a half-immortal now.
Therefore, creating a totally new cultivation realm is actually possible for Ji Yuan. That is, if he has the time of course.
But with the Lesser and Greater Heavenly Dao that could increase his chances for inspiration for the 3000 Great Daos of the Heavens, he was able to quickly realized this newly created cultivation realm.
Also, Ji Yuan's talent is not something that a normal celestial could also match because deep within his soul, he is also the highly talented True Devil God that is blessed by the Heavenly Dao to be a Beyond Divinity.
Therefore he has already occupied a Great Dao of the Heavens with his previous reincarnation and this is carried to this life as well.
Under the Immortal Realms, the cultivation realms could not exceed the 7th cultivation realm!
Therefore, Ji Yuan could only create a false 8th cultivation realm to make the full use of his profound strength.
Ji Yuan himself was surprised that his profound strength had actually increased to the 8th cultivation realm. Previously he had depended on his desolate cherubim spirit animus to display his profound strength to the 8th cultivation realm and it was actually weaker than the actual 8th cultivation realm.
But now, Ji Yuan had actuallt made a breakthrough and attained to the false 8th cultivation realm of the Empyrean level.
He was actually quite surprised that he did not have to stabilize his new cultivation boundary.
This was naturally credited to Aura the Divine Tree that was refilling his inner spiritual sea with the pure and robust spirit energies of the Golden Natal Divine Pearl.
In fact, with this Golden Natal Divine Pearl, Ji Yuan actually did not need to depend on his environment to draw upon the spirit energies anymore and he could constantly replenish his profound strength from within him.
Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui was suddenly gasping with great shock, "8th cultivation realm! You are an immortal?!"
Behind him, the other 11 Abyssals were startled to see Ji Yuan's cultivation realm that was being displayed by his profound aura.
This included the many chained men and maidens that were behind the Abyssals as well and for the very first time, they seemed to have seen a ray of hope.
Ji Yuan had suddenly dashed forward again and his speed was startling as raised his emperor-step divine sword to display the Sacred Pillar Sword once again and attacked the Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui.
As he flashed forward with the white flare light of his divine sword, the Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui was forced to use his most powerful internal profound art to receive Ji Yuan's incoming attack.
There was a thunderous impact that shook the vicinity with shockwaves as they clashed and this time it was the Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui that was flung into the mountain side with a thunderous explosive impact!
JI Yuan reacted immediately after the impact as he displayed another Sacred Sword Pillar as he thrown his Divine Sword Xiang Li like a piercing white flare of light into the smoldering debris as he killed the Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui in the next instant by severing his spine, causing him to exploded violently into blood and flesh.
When Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui had died, he could not believe how the heck this Ji Yuan could aim at his spine point and he could even severe his body; one must know that the Abyssals had such a powerful life force that they could not easily be killed even if they were covered with heavy injuries. Therefore in order to kill them, one must severe their skeleton bones which were as hard as a divine sword.
And as a high level Abyssal, Gui Gongkui's skeleton bones were even as hard as a heaven-step divine sword!
But just like this, Ji Yuan's profound attack had severed his spine and killing him!
Ji Yuan himself was quite astonished at how powerful his Sacred Pillar Sword was now with the true 8th cultivation realm as he muttered to himself: This miracle sword art combined with my new half-step immortal empyrean level is even more powerful than when I am displaying my desolate cherubim spirit animus...
The other 3 Abyssals were shocked but they were all veterans so they reacted immediately to attack Ji Yuan with fierce and furious looks.
Ji Yuan immediately displayed his other Divine Sword Anyang from his immortal scabbard and he was grinning.
The other 3 Abyssals were shocked that Ji Yuan had another emperor-step divine sword with him.
Ji Yuan immediately displayed the Super Heavenly light of the Coiling Dragon as he took the lives of the 3 sixth cultivation realm Abyssals as they were not able to scatter in time; Ji Yuan was simply too fast for them to change their attacks to evasions and they did not have the chance to engage him yet!
The other 8 Abyssals were terrified by Ji Yuan as they began to scatter in 8 different directions.
Ji Yuan was not about to let them go so easily so he displayed his 9 divine swords from his immortal scabbard and sent them flying in all directions.
The 8 Abyssals were terrified when they saw there were 9 more divine swords, including one more half-step emperor divine sword, a saint-step divine sword, an immortal-step divine sword and a celestial-step divine sword!
In just two blinks of an eye, Ji Yuan had slaughtered all the remaining 8 Abyssals.
All 9 of his flying swords, including his Divine Sword Xiang Li had all flown back into his immortal scabbard in another two blinks of an eye.
His feat stunned all the 100 men and maidens who were staring at shock at him and there were many gasps of wonders.
They had never thought that a celestial would be this strong as to slaughter 12 Abyssals so easily, including a Great Abyssal Lord.
Ji Yuan on the other hand was quite startled that his divine sense had received an insight from within: 10028 Points. He had received 9600 Points from killing the Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui.
He thought: It seems that I will only receive a significant more points from killing a seventh realm Abyssal.
Ji Yuan grinned as he approached the chained men and maidens.
With several flickers of his sword fingers, Ji Yuan had broken the chains that had chained them together as he said to them. "You are all safe now…"
Then he said to them, "You don't mind answering some questions from me about this Dark Abyssal, do you? You see, I am new to this world and I am from the Celestial Realm. So I am in need of some information."
An old man stammered, "Great Celestial Immortal, you are our savior… you have killed the beastly Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui…."
"Hahaha… I am no immortal," Ji Yuan laughed jovially as he interrupted the old man who he saw was only at the second cultivation realm. "I am only a celestial. Just call me Great Saint Ji Yuan… no wait Empyrean Ji Yuan. Haha…"
Since he had created a new cultivation realm, naturally he was going to make it into his new title.
Many of the men and maidens refused to believe that Ji Yuan was not an immortal. After all, they could all sense his oppressing 8th cultivation realm profound aura earlier.
But everyone greeted him nevertheless, "Empyrean Ji Yuan…"
Ji Yuan was actually at the upper level of the new half-step immortal or false 8th cultivation realm. He was unsure if he could call himself as Great Empyrean Ji Yuan instead.
But then, this cultivation realm was actually unique to him so it did not matter to him.
