Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 1017 – Reverse (continued)

Taoist Gui Qiong’s life treasure had been completely destroyed by Yang Junshan, and at the same time, the future Path of Taoist Gui Qiong was being destroyed as well.

“Kill him, we must kill him!”

Taoist Gui Qiong’s hoarse roars revealed a trace of madness. To a cultivator who had lived for hundreds of years and witnessed the life and death of countless cultivators, the death of Path was no different from death. But before that, he had to kill Yang Junshan!

Seeing Yang Junshan being sent flying, Taoist Jiufeng and Taoist Greywolf instantly revealed a trace of joy. The heavy pressure that was brought about by Yang Junshan’s advancement in Qingyun Realm had been scattered by quite a bit, and Taoist Yin Que, who had been pushed several hundred meters away by one of his innate abilities, finally felt that he had taken advantage of Yang Junshan at this moment. Several wind cones pierced the sky instantly from his Yin Wind Primordial Spirit, and when they reappeared, they were already behind Yang Junshan, thrusting towards his back from different directions.

In addition, he had a treasured robe that was made from the threads of the thousand-year Ice Silkworm. This cloak had an extremely strong restraining effect on the Taoist Jiufeng’s Fire Elemental divine ability, even though he had received the combined attack of two Daoists, his internal organs had only been shaken, but the strengthening of Yang Junshan’s internal organs was already at the peak of perfection!

How could the Taoist Yin Que possibly hide his actions from Yang Junshan when he was trying to take advantage of the opportunity? Just as the Yin Que was about to risk using his Primordial Spirit to unleash the spatial ability, Yang Junshan suddenly turned around and pressed on him with both palms behind his back.

Taoist Yin Que immediately let out a miserable scream. Even though he had done his best to maintain the opening of the spatial gate, how could he withstand Yang Junshan’s accumulated attack? Adding the power of “Yin Kong” on both of his palms, the five Primal Wind Cones on Taoist Yin Que were instantly cut into three.

This was the direct weakening of the source of the Taoist Yin Que’s primordial spirit, and the feedback to the Taoist Yin Que meant that his Qingyun Realm had been knocked down along the way. Of the dozen or so black smoke clouds that were guarding the primordial spirit of the Taoist Yin Que, three or four of them were completely destroyed, and even the remaining ten or so Qing Yun began to become unstable, as if he was about to collapse at any moment.

The injuries that Yang Junshan gave him had even surpassed the sixty to seventy years of his lifespan that Daoist Ziyuan had used when he lost his life treasures back then.

However, how could Yang Junshan give up on this chance to beat a drowning dog? Compared to the Taoist Gui Qiong, the strength of the Taoist Yin Que was not even worth mentioning.

The advancement of a Dao Realm cultivator was much more complicated than that of the Adept Realm Cultivator, and it was also much more difficult. However, this process could be described with a simple phrase, “reincarnation”, and this “reincarnation” was closely related to the cultivator’s own inherited cultivation technique.

Generally speaking, without any other fortuitous encounters or external forces, a cultivator with a low-grade Dao rank would be able to obtain seven strands of auspicious gas when entering the Dao Realm and completely solidifying the situation. As the cultivator’s cultivation level grew, the seven strands of auspicious gas would transform into fourteen pieces, then into twenty-one strands … Until the forty-nine of them had reached the peak of the Rui Qi Realm, then the cultivator would have to find an opportunity to break through the threshold of Qingyun Realm, and the most intuitive manifestation of this threshold would be that the auspicious energy had merged together, shrinking once again to seven. At this moment, the seven fused energies had already turned into the Qingyun Sword, and the cultivators had also used this to advance their Qingyun Realm.

As for the process of advancing to the next stage, it was no different from the low-grade Dao rank cultivation technique. Of course, the middle grade Dao rank cultivation technique was higher than the low-grade, and the full strength of the ‘Eight-Eight Reincarnation’ naturally had more potential than the ‘Seven-Seven-Seven-Seven-Sevenths Reincarnation’.

As for the legacy skills that were at least Dao High Rank or higher, in the Dao Realm, that would naturally be the “Nine-Nine Reincarnation Technique”. And the “Mountain Nine Toughness Technique” that Yang Junshan was cultivating would obviously belong to this category.

Of course, aside from the Dao level legacy, there were also high-grade precious rank legacy techniques that could help one break through to the Dao Realm. However, this potential was often even lower, and even if one was able to solidify their foundation, it would only be at most six types of Qi. In fact, it could be considered a “Six Six Samsara”, but in reality, there had never been a cultivator who could survive the thunder tribulation while simply cultivating a high-grade treasure inheritance.

Of course, all of these were only under normal circumstances, so it was natural that everyone’s circumstances would be different. It was just like how the cultivation technique the Taoist Gui Qiong cultivated was only at the high-grade Treasure, but he, who had already reached the peak of the Qingyun Realm, was able to condense more than forty Qingyun, and this potential was no less than that of the cultivators who had cultivated a low-grade Dao Realm legacy.

As for the Taoist Yin Que, his dozen or so Yin Gongyun’s, even Yang Junshan’s nine initial Qingyun’s could not compare to him. Under the situation where he was heavily injured in just a few tries, he was already treated as a soft persimmon by Yang Junshan.

It must be understood that in the battle of Dao Realm cultivators, although the use of divine abilities was a common technique, it was extremely rare for one to use other than running away. That was because even the slightest interference from the spatial gate might cause harm to the cultivator himself.

Even if Taoist Yin Que had used a spatial ability to ambush his with her primordial spirit, that was after Yang Junshan was sent flying and it seemed like he did not have the power to fight back at all. And even so, Taoist Yin Que only dared to face danger witortion of her primordial spirit, let alone with his true body.

However, this time, Yang Junshan had actually used his own body to directly use the spatial tunnel to approach the Taoist Yin Que after heavily injuring the latter. In everyone’s eyes, this was equivalent to courting death, no matter how lax the cultivation of the Taoist Yin Que was, he was still a cultivator of the Qingyun Realm. At this time, as long as he did his best to distort the spatial tunnel Yang Junshan had opened, he would most likely be severely injured.

But in reality, he had sufficient confidence in Yang Junshan’s seemingly unwise actions!

When Yang Junshan disappeared into the space, the first thing that came out of the spatial door that Taoist Yin Que opened waair of hands, which seemed to have substance as they pressed down on the two sides of the spatial door. No matter how the Taoist Yin Que shook and twisted the space, the door was not affected in the slightest!

“Spatial treasure!” Taoist Yin Que’s exclamation almost went out of tune.

However, Yang Junshan didn’t give him any chance, the mountain breaking mace struck the head of the Taoist Yin Que’s life treasure, the Yin Wind Fan, until it was disintegrated, completely stunning him. Without waiting for Taoist Yin Que to react, Yang Junshan used the Yin Wind Tornado, which was formed by his Primordial Spirit, to smash Taoist Yin Que’s head into pieces.

The method Yang Junshan used to venture through space was obviously outside of the expectations of the other three Dao Realm cultivators, which was why the Taoist Greywolf and Taoist Jiufeng behind him were a little slower. They weren’t able to save the Taoist Yin Que in time, and could only watch him die in Yang Junshan’s hands.

As for the Taoist Gui Qiong, after being severely injured by Yang Junshan, he was immediately entangled by the Deep Earth Puppet. The Deep Earth Puppet was originally chasing after the Taoist Greywolf, but because the Taoist Gui Qiong was slower by a step, it was immediately entangled by the Deep Earth Puppet.

Yang Junshan killing Taoist Yin Que shocked Hui Lang and Jiu Feng, but at the same time, they were furious, the two of them rushed towards Yang Junshan without hesitation.

But when Yang Junshan suddenly raised his head, a condescending sneer appeared on his face, making the two’s heart thump loudly. Then, they watched as Yang Junshan suddenly formed a seal with his hands, and then pressed downwards, and a cracking sound suddenly came from afar.

It was the Golden Crow Sword!

Just as the two Daoists were working together to attack Yang Junshan, Yang Junshan seized the opportunity to unleash the [Heaven Shaking Dao Art] with all his might. This was Yang Junshan’s innate ability ranked nineteenth on the Dao Techniques and Divine Powers list, and with the help of his [Innate] Mountain Monarch Seal s, it suppressed the Golden Crow Sword with all his might.

Although the Golden Crow Sword was not his personal treasure, in order to be able to unleash the power of the daoyin apparatus, the Taoist Jiufeng used a secret technique passed down through the Golden Crow, making a deep connection with his primordial spirit.

Although the destruction of the Golden Crow Sword did not cause Taoist Jiufeng much damage, it still made him uncomfortable. And this sudden attack also caused Taoist Jiufeng to hesitate from joining hands with him at the same time.

The mountain breaking mace blocked the Taoist Greywolf who was about to use his life’s Dao Techniques and Divine Powers. However, Yang Junshan rushed to the front of the Taoist Jiufeng with his bare hands, formed a hand seal with the sky and a hand with the Shocking Stone Fist, and struck the Taoist Jiufeng on his body.

The Taoist Jiufeng was no match for Yang Junshan, seeing that he had nothing to do with the Taoist Greywolf and was only charging towards him, he had already started panicking. He wanted to retreat, but was worried that he wouldn’t be able to get any help from the Taoist Greywolf, wanting to muster up the courage to face Yang Junshan head on. However, he did not have the courage to do so.

Just as he was in a dilemma, his body was already being sealed by Yang Junshan’s sacred art. Then, Shocking Stone Fist’s punch had destroyed his body, but Yang Junshan did not stop there, he changed his fist into a finger, accurately hitting the three-legged flame crow’s primordial spirit which had escaped from Taoist Jiufeng’s body.

The Three-Legged Golden Crow let out a miserable screech before it turned into a ball of flames and collapsed. A trace of white flame appeared within the flame. It was jusiny wisp, but it seemed to contain the power to burn the sky and boil the sea.

This was the alien heavenly fire that contained a sliver of the Grand Sun Primordial Flame!

Yang Junshan was surprised in his heart, but he instantly understood why the Grand Sun Primordial Flame was so domineering. Although the Taoist Jiufeng took it away, he did not recover it, and even if he did, it would be impossible for it to be refined in a short period of time.

But now that the Taoist Jiufeng’s body had been destroyed, even his Primordial Spirit had been destroyed by Yang Junshan’s Heaven Constitution Finger, so this strand of heavenly fire naturally became his. But before that, he still had to take care of the other two opponents first.

However, when Yang Junshan turned around to face the Taoist Greywolf, he saw the back figure of rushing out of the Buried Sky Ruins’s spatial door!

Yang Junshan was slightly startled, and immediately searched for traces of the Taoist Gui Qiong. On the other side, other than the Deep Earth Puppet standing there stupidly, there was no trace of the Taoist Gui Qiong at all!
