Chapter 743: Like an Immortal of the Sword, Forceful and Unrivaled
Throughout history, undergoing tribulation had always been perilous, with only a small chance of success. Cultivators underwent multiple layers of tribulation, overcoming life and death trials before seizing a thread of life force, proving their Dao, and breaking through.
The Spirit Dao cultivators’ memories of the obstacles and perils they’d faced during their own tribulations were carved deep within their hearts.
Nonetheless, as they witnessed Su Yi undergo tribulation, they were struck dumb.
One slash, that’s all, yet he’d cleaved through one hundred thousand feet of tribulation cloud and reduced an unprecedentedly grand tribulation to powder!
This was unquestionably far too unbelievable.
Many of the onlookers felt as if they were dreaming; it didn’t feel quite real. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗ｏ𝚟𝚎𝚕.ｏｒｇ
After all, earlier, all of them had sensed that Su Yi’s Tribulation of Spiritual Incarnation was extremely terrifying and unusual, and that it was full of a strange, taboo aura.
That forceful divine might filled even the Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivators’ hearts with terror and despair!
That was why all of Su Yi’s would-be enemies—Huan Shanglin, Xie Zhibei, Wang Zhongyang, and their allies—were perfectly certain that if they interfered, Su Yi would be doomed. His tribulation would kill him beyond a doubt!
Who could have imagined that Su Yi would cleave through the dome of heaven in a single slash, breaking through this unprecedented, taboo tribulation?
Everyone who saw this was astonished, and they stood there in a daze.
As if they’d just witnessed a miracle!
“This… Isn’t he a bit?too?strong…?” Some people muttered in astonishment, their hearts shaking.
“A single slash to cleave through a heavenly tribulation? What kind of terrifying cultivation base is needed to achieve that?” someone couldn’t help but blurt.
“He really is like a banished immortal, a rare sight in the mortal world…” Pu Jue sighed deeply.
He was one of the peak Spiritual Revolution Realm experts of the Bright Sky Realm, but the abilities Su Yi had on display shocked him completely.
The old blind man, Wen Xinzhao, and the others all looked dazed.
This scene similarly overturned their understanding of tribulations!
Beneath the dome of heaven, boundless tribulation light dispersed, as if something were drawing it away. All of it disappeared into Su Yi’s tall, upright figure, receding like waters at low tide.
The light emanating from him expanded like river water rising after the rain.
Within his Grand Dao Spirit Palace, it was like the first parting of primordial chaos. The palace rumbled and boomed as the surging power of the Grand Dao condensed the initial outline of a mysterious and inscrutable Spirit Incarnation.
And just like that, Su Yi’s cultivation base stepped into the Spiritual Incarnation Realm.
The moment he sensed the earth-shaking changes within himself and the shocking transformation to his cultivation base, essence, qi, and spirit, Su Yi felt a deep sense of satisfaction.
The Spiritual Incarnation Realm!
Spiritual Incarnation was the second of the Three Realms of the Spirit Dao. Upon reaching this realm, cultivators condensed Spirit Incarnations and comprehended the mysteries of the heavens. Their life span soared, their life force continuous and unbroken. They could traverse the four seas in a single day, breathe in the power of the sun and moon, and refine their mysteries!
Once a Spirit Incarnation took shape, a cultivator’s control over the Grand Dao reached all-new heights. When they cultivated, the Mysterious Truths and secrets of the Grand Dao would be carved into their Spirit Incarnations!
The tribulation clouds filling the sky dispersed, and heaven and earth returned to normal.
The deep curtain of dusk had already been enveloped in darkness. The moon shone overhead, and the stars glittered.
Beneath the dome of heaven, Su Yi’s aura continued to soar!
Seven days prior, he’d obtained a near endless supply of the rain of the light of the Grand Dao. Now, as he broke through his tribulation, he devoured the endless life force within the lightning.
The two powers fused and created Su Yi’s Spiritual Incarnation Realm foundations in the Grand Dao!
It was already clear that once Su Yi’s cultivation base stabilized, his foundations would be unimaginably solid.
“Quick, kill him before his cultivation stabilizes!” Suddenly, a bellow rang out, bringing the crowd to their senses.
The onlookers watched as Huan Shanglin led his eleven Spiritual Revolution cultivators into battle. All of them soared through the skies and attacked Su Yi.
Terrifying murderous intent ran rampant, filling the entire area.
“Fine! Let’s kill Su Yi first, then seize the Seed of the Azure!” Xie Zhibei gnashed his teeth. Then, he and the Spiritual Revolution cultivators accompanying him took to the skies and surrounded Su Yi.
“We’re going too!” Wang Zhongyang decided.
He was well aware that once Su Yi’s cultivation base stabilized, he’d be truly terrifying. When that happened, he feared no one present would be able to contend with him!
Su Yi had successfully overcome his tribulation, but he had a lethal weak point: his cultivation boundary was not yet stable. His power was undergoing a transformation. This meant he couldn’t possibly control his newfound power smoothly!
That meant this was a perfect opportunity for them to exterminate Su Yi!
Boom!
Heaven and earth trembled, and towering divine light illuminated the night skies.
More than twenty Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivators had joined forces. How terrifying was that?
Swords, bells, weaving shuttles, seals, fly-whisks, jade rulers… all manner of Natal Spirit Treasures flew through the air with brilliant divine radiance, ripping through the sky and dazzling the human world.
All manner of mighty and inscrutable Daoist magics and secret arts manifested lightning, divine flame, hurricanes, seas of blood, and currents of destructive power. They blanketed heaven and earth, but all of them swept toward Su Yi.
The entire stretch of sky descended into upheaval. The mountains, rivers, trees, and grasses were reduced to powder, and even the sky itself wailed continuously as if unable to bear the pressure.
This was unquestionably far too terrifying!
Earlier, when Su Yi had undergone tribulation, the Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivators had joined forces to attack him, but they had limited themselves to influencing his mental state. Furthermore, they had been afraid of backlash from his tribulation, so the abilities and treasures they’d used weren’t all that strong.
It was different now. They went all out, unleashing their Natal Spirit Treasures and strongest abilities.
Their goal was to exterminate Su Yi in one fell swoop! Their power far surpassed their earlier attacks.
When he saw this, even Pu Jue, one of the top five Spiritual Revolution cultivators in the Bright Sky Realm, felt his heart quiver. He asked himself,?Could I handle that? No, I’d have only one choice: I’d have to flee!
As far as I could run!
Otherwise, power like that would blast me to bits. Not even bone fragments would remain!
However, in the face of attacks coming at him from all sides, a mocking smile appeared on Su Yi’s face.
“You’re attacking me now? How are?you any different?from moths to?the flame?”
As his calm voice echoed through the air, Su Yi stepped into the sky, his robes swaying around him.
Boom!
A perfectly round circle of the light of the Grand Dao appeared behind his tall, upright figure, slowly revolving. It was like a millstone bearing down on the skies, casting dreamlike and ethereal light.
Bang bang bang!
The treasures and secret techniques rumbled as they came crashing down. Their terrifying power practically enveloped Su Yi.
However, before the treasures or abilities drew near Su Yi, the wheel of light stopped them about a hundred feet away. None could encroach any further.
Su Yi took a step forward, and the treasures were sent flying, while the spells collapsed with a bang!
From a distance, Su Yi seemed as invincible and unshakable as a solitary mountain shifting through the skies, crushing every attack in his path!
All of this took some time to describe, but it happened in a flash.
Su Yi took a step forward, arrived before the group of Spiritual Revolution cultivators, and swung his sleeves.
Boom!!!
Sword qi descended from the heavens, pouring down like a waterfall. Forceful, unstoppable sword intent cleaved perfectly straight rifts through the sky.
The cultivators nearest to Su Yi felt their hair stand on end. They didn’t hesitate to call upon their full power, and they fought with everything they had to neutralize the threat.
A heaven-shaking impact rang out.
Sword rain poured from the heavens, breaking through the cultivators’ attacks like an axe through bamboo. It cut through their treasures, then cleaved into their bodies.
Splurt! Splurt! Splurt! Splurt! Splurt!
It was just one attack, but five Spiritual Revolution cultivators were cut down where they stood almost simultaneously.
Their bodies were cut into pieces, and even their souls were shattered amidst the boundless sword qi. Fresh blood scattered like a waterfall, dyeing the surrounding skies red.
Everyone present was shaken.
He was surrounded on all sides, but he was never once suppressed. On the contrary, he broke through the encirclement like an axe through bamboo, slaying five enemies in one attack!
It was as if nothing could stand in his way!
As blood scattered, cries of alarm shook the heavens.
Huan Shanglin, Xie Zhibei, Wang Zhongyang, and the others were stunned. Their expressions shifted dramatically.
They’d assumed that in the moments after overcoming his tribulation and breaking through, Su Yi would be in a weakened state, and that his cultivation base would be unstable.
Who’d have thought that that wasn’t remotely the case?
“Quick! Attack with everything you’ve got!” Huan Shanglin roared, and his eyes bulged as if about to burst.
The five dead Spiritual Revolution cultivators were all from his camp, and the loss made his heart drip blood.
There was no need for his reminder. The others had long since sensed the danger. How could they possibly have gotten complacent?
One after another, they called upon their trump cards, fighting like mad with their lives on the line.
Everything was in complete chaos. It was as if the skies were about to collapse.
The power of the Spiritual Revolution Realm could easily incinerate mountains, boil seas, and destroy an entire landscape.
And now, an entire group of such cultivators were fighting together as if they’d gone mad, holding nothing back. How could their power possibly be ordinary?
The distant Xia Emperor had no choice but to circulate the power of the Nine Tripod Suppression Barrier Formation to defend the city. The battle’s flood of destructive energy alone was enough to deal devastating damage!
The distant onlookers, meanwhile, had long since fled further away for fear of the aftershock.
Boom!
Heaven and earth were shrouded in darkness as the landscape was devastated.
The grand battle had begun in earnest.
Now, everyone saw for the first time just how terrifying Su Yi was after overcoming his tribulation.
He stepped through the skies like a soaring immortal, his sleeves fluttering around him. Streaks of sword qi slashed through the air, bringing with them glittering light that illuminated the darkness and cut through the skies.
No power could block the sword qi’s attacks. Neither heaven nor earth could stand in his way. Not even the Grand Dao could fetter him!
Beneath the boundless sword qi, treasures shattered, and Daoist magics fell apart.
One body after another fell like grass beneath a scythe, splitting into pieces and dyeing the skies red with blood.
Panicked cries, enraged shouts, unwilling roars, wails of despair, and miserable shrieks rang out beneath the dome of heaven.
It was an apocalyptic vision of purgatory. One startling death played out after another!
Too terrifying!
He was just one person, and he was beset on all sides, but he cleaved through Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivators as if they were no more than rotten wood!
In just a few breaths of time, more than ten Spiritual Revolution cultivators perished, cut down where they stood.
Fragments of treasures and corpses fell from the sky like rain, mixed with hot, red blood. Heaven and earth were dyed red.
And Su Yi? His blue robes were neat, his long hair fluttered around him, and there was no trace of dirt or blood on him. He was like an immortal of the sword, invincible as his enemies' heads rolled around him!
The distant onlookers were stunned, each as still as a clay statue.
Their hearts were full of utter dread and terror!
