Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 583B – Overdrawing the Source



Chapter 583B – Overdrawing the Source

Qin Yu swiftly ended the first battle. This wasn’t because his strength completely overwhelmed his opponent, but because his opponent had chosen to attack his strongest defense that was his soul, as well as exposing himself to his strongest offense that was his body.

So following that, Qin Yu remained cautious. Luckily he wasn’t ambushed by anyone. Rather, he sensed the fluctuations of others fighting.

Out of those that were sent into the virtual world, only one would be left standing. Although kicking someone while they were down wasn’t something glorious or honorable, it was actually the best chance to eliminate his opponents.

Qin Yu wasn’t evil, but he also never proclaimed that he was some kind of good person. So after thinking about it, he followed the direction of those fluctuations.

A sage once said – if he didn’t take the advantages when offered to he would be a bastard…

After a moment, Qin Yu restrained his aura. When he saw the two different sides fighting, he couldn’t help but furrow his eyebrows.

How could it be him?

Out of the two people fighting, one of them was Xu Wenze!

Since Qin Yu acknowledged the favor he owed Feng Yunyun, he also wouldn’t forget this person. Although Xu Wenze had stepped forward to speak on his behalf mostly because of Feng Yunyun, he had still done so, and Qin Yu owed a sentiment as a result. In any case, it wasn’t good to attack right now.

But as he saw Xu Wenze’s opponent, he had to reconsider his opinion.

Evil hell spirit!

This fellow had altered his appearance but he didn’t change his aura. Moreover, this evil hell spirit had already revealed his ill intent towards him.

Did he think that Qin Yu wouldn’t notice?

The two were in a close battle right now. If Qin Yu helped Xu Wenze, killing the evil hell spirit wouldn’t be difficult.

However, how could he make it so that Xu Wenze believed him? As Qin Yu’s thoughts were racing, his complexion suddenly changed.

Others had come, and there was more than one.

Qin Yu looked up into the distance to see two figures speeding towards him. Although they landed far away and attempted to conceal their locations, they couldn’t escape his eyes.

This made things troublesome…two cultivators were still waiting outside so Qin Yu didn’t dare to act recklessly. Otherwise, if he made even the slightest mistake he would fall into their trap.

The evil hell spirit’s complexion was pale. He thought that his opponent was a soft persimmon but he never realized he had bitten into a hard rock instead. He regretted that he had been tempted by his opponent’s pure soul aura and chased after him, but at this time what use did regretting have?

The two people fought for a long time, unable to determine victory or defeat. In this virtual world, where could they hide from others?

As the evil hell spirit thought about how there were likely people staring at them from the shadows already, his eyes darkened and he became even more uneasy.

In particular, Xu Wenze’s attacks were becoming increasingly swift and fierce, with an overwhelming righteous quality to them. The evil hell spirit felt as if he were being poked by countless sharp pins. He wanted to retreat but it would be difficult to do so, and if he were to reveal any flaws in his movements, he would likely suffer heavy losses.

“Brat, since you are seeking death, let me help you along!”

The evil hell spirit was a noble and uncommon life form. But due to some circ.u.mstances that occurred after birth, his strength had been drastically reduced. Even so, he still had a life-maintaining method, otherwise the black-robed figure wouldn’t have dragged him along with him.

“Akasi!”

He opened his mouth and shouted his own name. To the devil species, this was of great importance.

Blood red flames instantly gushed out from his body, wrapping about the evil hell spirit’s body. It burnt away his hair and outer shell of flesh and blood to reveal his true body hidden beneath.

Now, what appeared in the blood flames was a devil covered from head to toe in scales. He had sharp claws on his hands and feet and a tail that extended down his back.

His crimson eyes stared stubbornly at Xu Wenze. He opened his mouth and roared.

Hum –

A strange frequency rapidly trembled, giving birth to an incomparably terrifying strength.

Xu Wenze took a deep breath. He placed a hand between his eyebrows and brilliant rays of light erupted, causing him to immediately gain an atmosphere of peerless dignity.

Within this light, tall and profound scholars appeared. They opened their mouths and chanted scriptures, their words echoing together and gathering in the void, rejecting all negative influences in the world.

Bang –

With a startling thunderclap, the edges of the scholars began to shake as their figures blurred.

This was the curse strength that originated from hell. It could slay all lives and annihilate all vitality.

Even these dead heroic spirits would be weakened and eventually fade from the world.

Xu Wenze’s eyes flashed with a trace of hesitation. Then, his face filled with resolve. He began to chant out loud, matching the scholar phantoms.

He cupped his hands across his chest and deeply bowed!

The scholar phantoms immediately shattered, turning into countless golden runes that gathered together and started forming words: The Heavens are in motion ceaselessly; the enlightened exert themselves constantly…

A vast and broad aura from ancient times suddenly arrived. As more and more golden words appeared, they were like the prestige of the world, impossible to resist.

The evil hell spirit cried out pitifully. Most of the blood red flames along its body were extinguished. It glared at Xu Wenze with hatred thick in its eyes and then turned to flee.

But at this time, a change occurred. A giant hand reached out from the void and grabbed tightly onto the fleeing evil hell spirit.

“Ahh!”

The evil hell spirit roared in anger, but before he could even react, the hand tightened.

The hand of crushing flesh and broken bones sounded out, causing one’s scalp to tingle. The evil hell spirit was drenched in its own blood and the flames that surrounded it were immediately extinguished.

His body slumped to the ground, blood gushing out from every hole on his head. He had unexpectedly been killed by this hand.

Qin Yu’s eyes widened and his heart skipped a beat. Even though the evil hell spirit had fled, it definitely still had the ability to continue fighting.

Yet, it had been so easily killed like this. The one who attacked was definitely at the Calamity Immortal level.

Moreover, his strength was above that of ordinary Calamity Immortals!

With his heart still started, Qin Yu was too occupied to care about Xu Wenze anymore. But just as he was about to leave, he stiffened.

This was because at this moment, a terrifying aura descended from the highest heavens and locked tightly onto him.

Qin Yu had a sudden premonition that if he were to leave, he would immediately welcome a terrifying attack.

At this moment, Xu Wenze and the cultivators who were attracted here all had the same feeling as Qin Yu.

In other words, the master of this perception had locked onto everyone here simultaneously…how overbearing was this? How strong was this?

Everyone started to look up at the skies above their head. There, gray mist tumbled around and space had collapsed inwards. Someone stepped out from the collapsed space. Their step was calm and powerful and it seemed as if mountains and rivers could be crushed beneath his footsteps. His movements exuded peerless power and momentum.

It was him!

Qin Yu’s pupils shrank. It was the young man that had stood behind Emperor Zhou.

Just what sort of character was Emperor Zhou? Since he had appeared, he couldn’t leave empty-handed. Due to this reason, Qin Yu had always felt some level of dread towards this person…now, didn’t this scene verify his own guess?

However, this person seemed a bit too strong…

“The good fortune within the Sea of Purgatory belongs to His Majesty Emperor Zhou. All of you here must die.”

A low and deep sound rang out, carrying out with it an undeniably strong momentum. The killing intent dripping from his words caused the hearts of everyone here to tremble.

“Humph!” With a cold sneer, a figure on the ground suddenly exploded into numerous shadows that fled in all directions.

If someone had the bravery to withdraw in this current situation, they naturally had confidence in their own abilities.

These numerous shadows were all illusions and all true bodies. If one didn’t eliminate every single one of them, then if just one escaped it could start absorbing strength from outside and rapidly recover.

Zhan Lingtian was without expression. He raised a hand and thrust out a palm. Space violently trembled before loudly exploding.

With himself at the center, a terrifying wave of strength swept out like a tsunami.

Wherever it passed, the space of the virtual world would collapse, turning into a horrifying large mouth.

“Forgive me…!” Before the horrified scream could finish, all of the shadows were swallowed up. With a single strike from Zhan Lingtian, this person’s aura had completely faded away.

To kill the evil hell spirit with a single hand and eliminate these countless shadows with another hand, this level of power shocked everyone present!

“Run!”

It was unknown who shouted this first, but everyone here, whether they were visible or hidden, started to recklessly flee.

Zhan Lingtian was strong but he couldn’t chase down all of them. Then, it was time to take a gamble and see who was unlucky.

This wasn’t because they didn’t want to fight back, but because the strength that Zhan Lingtian revealed made them all feel despair in their hearts.

He was so strong that this wasn’t a difference that could be made up for with numbers…at the very least, those present were far from enough.

Qin Yu restrained the impulse that grabbed at his heart and didn’t immediately leave. When the sound of breaking air rang out, he took a step forward.

His figure vanished like a bolt of lightning. As soon as he moved, that terrifying perception around him turned sharp and swift.

But Qin Yu had already prepared himself for this before he left. Within an instant, his body broke into the shadows.

He vanished in the next moment. When he reappeared, he was ten miles away.

But to a Calamity Immortal, this distance only took a mere moment to overcome. It was so minor it could be called negligible.

Thus, when Qin Yu reappeared, he didn’t hesitate at all before he used Shadow Step once again.

However, his complexion didn’t relax. This was because the perception that had locked onto him was following close behind; it was simply impossible to get rid of.

Zhan Lingtian furrowed his eyebrows before immediately composing himself. He took a step out and vanished.

A fleeing cultivator immediately turned deathly white. He cried out loud as his body began to wildly swell up.

But Zhan Lingtian didn’t give him the chance to struggle. He thrust out a finger and the growing body loudly exploded, turning into a rain of ruined flesh and bones.

He had killed someone with a single finger. Zhan Lingtian turned and left. Two breaths of time later, he killed another person.

His face was without expression. He was like a god that had descended upon the world, but his heart was actually ice cold.

This was because Zhan Lingtian knew that the terrifying strength he possessed right now wasn’t truly his, but something he obtained from overdrawing his source.

The power he held in his hands right now was equal to the suffering he would have to pay in the future…even though he wasn’t willing, he had no other choice. This will of the founding emperor couldn’t be questioned by anyone, even if this meant he would die as a result!

Shua –

Zhan Lingtian paused. He could sense two auras within his perception. His divine sense immediately chased after them.

During his Shadowsteps, Qin Yu felt his heart skip a beat. A great mountain seemed to be pressing upon him, as if disaster was imminent.

He took a deep breath and calmed his heart with some difficulty. Within his mind, the ancient demon roared into the skies.

This was already his strongest method; he wouldn’t hold back any longer.

If this person wanted to kill him, then come!

At the same time, Zhan Lingtian narrowed his eyebrows, a look of surprise on his face.

He couldn’t help but turn and look to his left. This person’s aura was so formidable that even he felt dread.

After thinking for a moment, Zhan Lingtian took a step out and chased after the cultivator fleeing to his right. He narrowed his eyes, a bright fighting spirit igniting.

First he would clean up these small scattered pieces. The strongest enemies had to be saved for the very end!
