Lord Xue Ying

Following Southern Cloud King’s exclamation of a single word, ‘good’, the group of cultivators within the palace hall reacted. One could not blame them. The scene that appeared within the round mirror was too shocking.

“Formidable. Truly formidable. The combat formation formed by four Primal Chaos existences has been broken by him just like that?” Monarch Sky Yin sighed with shock.

“That’s right. And it is even a combat formation led by Old Devil Xue Fu. In terms of power, it should be at the peak of the ninth level. Even if I acted, it isn’t that easy to break it.” Monarch Chun Yu exclaimed with admiration from the side. A truly powerful combat formation could easily defend itself against even a soul attack–the strongest expert within the combat formation could protect the team.

Hence, attacking the weakest link in the combat formation was practically equivalent to attacking its strongest expert.

Of course, in the long history of Realm Heart Great Land, several unique methods could target one of the members situated in the formation, rendering the formation entirely useless. For instance, some kind of ‘curse’ or ‘prophecy method’. Or a ‘karma attack’, ‘Yin-Yang Reincarnation Attack’, etc.

“He has employed two types of spear techniques in total.” Monarch Greedy Peng praised, “The first spear technique is bizarre. It did not pierce apart the combat formation, yet the spear shadows have pierced through the chest of the Primal Chaos experts. When a bloody hole formed on each opponent’s chest, their body soon turned into particles and disappeared from existence. Those three Primal Chaos experts died like that.”

“Mn, that’s right.”

“Indeed, his spear did not pierce apart the combat formation. Yet the spear shadows have somehow flashed, piercing through the chests of the three Primal Chaos experts and causing their bodies to shatter.”

Those present had extraordinary strength.

Not just Cosmos Gods, even the tenth level existences could make an accurate judgment.

“The second spear technique is the 12th style of our “Southern Cloud 12 Sacred Styles”, the ‘Void Shatter’. Three consecutive spears blasted out on the body of Old Devil Xue Fu.” Monarch Greedy Peng said, “The Void Shatter was merely an attack at the God Yuan Palace ninth level strength. Even though its power might be stronger, it is quite crude and easily defended! But in the hands of this Prince Xue Ying, when the spear appeared, it had reached the side of Old Devil Xue Fu, preventing the other party from blocking it at all. Hence, causing all three moves to connect.”

“Even though ‘Void Shatter’ has huge power, and Old Devil Xue Fu did have a firm body refining cultivation, three spears sufficed to cause his death. This spear in Prince Xue Ying’s hand… must be an outstanding secret treasure! It enabled the ‘Void Shatter’ to unleash a greater force.” Monarch Greedy Peng explained.

Those present nodded.

Breaking the combat formation first by bringing down the members.

Without protection from the combat formation, Old Devil Xue Fu’s survival abilities would drastically reduce. But three spears sufficed to kill the other party? That felt too exaggerated. There was only one explanation–the spear was a horrifying secret treasure.

“These aren’t the most amazing.”

A smile also appeared on Southern Cloud King. He chuckled, “Breaking the combat formation or the secret spear treasure in his hand, these are secondary. What is most amazing about this little fellow Ying Shan Xue Ying is his domain technique! The law domain of Old Devil Xue Fu was quite perfected. It suppressed all ripples in the vicinity. But Ying Shan Xue Ying could still control the void and cause his spear to easily appear by the side of Old Devil Xue Fu. It is fine to reach this stage since according to logic, Old Devil Xue Fu should be able to react in time by sensing the changes in the void around him! But in reality, he a ninth level expert, someone who excels in close combat too, could not block a single move! Clearly, this void control method of Ying Shan Xue Ying has reached a profound stage that it was instantaneous and signless!”

“Mn.”

“Yes.”

All those present turned solemn.

That’s right.

A domain technique that could render a ninth level expert helpless was indeed frightening.

Precisely because of this horrifying domain that it gave rise to a miraculous effect on using the crude and direct technique ‘Void Shatter’!

“Those attacks could not even be blocked. Really frightening.” Those present were overwhelmed with aghast.

“Old Mother, congratulations to you.” Empress Ghost Li commended.

“Hahaha, Old Mother, it seems an amazing young fellow has appeared from your Ying Shan Clan.” Monarch Sky Yin chuckled.

Old Mother Ying Shan was full of smiles too. Though she had some deductions in her heart. She had read before some of the scattered and broken records regarding the earliest period of Realm Heart Great Land on ‘Scarlet Cloud Paragon Master’. That was someone famous for his void domain and fearless of group battles. Even Great Paragon Lu Tian who had an extremely high status in Fan Clan mentioned that Scarlet Cloud Paragon Master was not any weaker than him. Nevertheless, that era was before even the first War of the Ancient Nations. Many cultivation techniques were not created yet, and Scarlet Cloud Paragon Master died in the end due to his excessive stubbornness. If it were this era, it would be harder for him to die since many more survival secret techniques existed. Otherwise, how could even Snow Hook King with his arrogance survive?

‘Little Fellow Xue Ying, is the reason why you sought to obtain this spearhead because of this?’ Old Mother Ying Shan made her conjecture. The smile on her old face became more vibrant. It was merely 300 million cosmos crystals, yet it enabled her clan disciple ‘Ying Shan Xue Ying’ to learn such a fantastic cultivation technique and to reach such a strength. That was totally worth the price!

…

Southern Cloud Capita, within the residence of Fan Clan.

“This…” Fan Tian Chong’s eyes were opened really wide. There were several other people around who stood up abruptly too as they watched with astonishment at the scene appearing on the Heaven Observation Mirror.

‘What an amazing young fellow. This, this is way too shocking already.’ Fan Tian Chong murmured inwardly. His judgment was acute. Furthermore, the inheritance of Scarlet Cloud Paragon Master only existed in a single place across the entire Realm Heart Great Land–the Fan Clan. That was a cultivation technique kept within the clan and would never be spread outside! Because they were clear how powerful the “Scarlet Cloud Combat Technique” was.

‘The reason why he has always been seeking that spearhead is to rely on it and comprehend the combat technique of Scarlet Cloud Paragon Master?’ Fan Tian Chong muttered in his mind, ‘This comprehension skill is too frightening.’

Just by relying on the mystical imprints on the secret treasure to comprehend the combat technique, that was something challenging and comparable to creating it from scratch. Learning this technique under guidance from a complete absolute art would be much simpler.

‘Fortunately… It is fortunate that he could only comprehend the weaker parts of Scarlet Cloud Paragon Master’s combat technique. It is not that easy to reach the more profound section.’ Fan Tian Chong thought.

…

Black Devil Great Lake, within a vast, luxurious palace hall.

The three famous religious masters were seated at the highest spot here. There were seven other Cosmos Gods and a group of devil masters situated below them. The current atmosphere here was quite leisurely and carefree, and everyone was spectating the scene. To them, this was a joyous banquet, and they were happily watching the Blood Sacrifice of a city from Southern Cloud Nation.

“Mn?”

“This, how could this…?”

“How could this be?”

All of them were stunned.

Even the three religious masters who were seated high above became startled momentarily. It was at that moment the cheerful atmosphere in the hall changed drastically. Everyone became quiet.

“Who is this young man? How can he be this strong? Which tenth level expert in Realm Heart Great Land is actually staying temporarily in Ardent Fire City?” Yama Religious Master who was seated at the center of the three religious masters questioned nonchalantly. Clearly, he did not know who Xue Ying was. Furthermore, with his current status, he disdained in collecting information on such cultivators.

“Reporting to religious master, this young man is called Ying Shan Xue Ying.” The incarnation of a thin green-haired old man immediately stood up and reported respectfully, “He is a disciple from the Ying Shan Clan. When he was given birth…”

******

Many other organizations were paying close notice to this from different locations, including the Summer Wind Ancient Nation, Snow Hook Nation, Maple Nest Nation, Moonflower Ancient Nation, and others. Even though they immediately noticed this white-robed young man, was startled at his power and began collecting detailed information regarding him…

The battle was still proceeding within the Ardent Fire City.

“What!”

The muscular twisted-horned male ‘Chen Niu’ who was originally leading three subordinates against Marquis Ardent Fire and his soldiers had been so frightened by this development that his expression changed. There was a reason why he was able to climb up to where he currently stood from his previous status at the lowest rung of Black Devil Great Land–it was due to Chen Niu’s ability to seek luck and avoid the danger.

“Quickly flee now!” Chen Niu transmitted anxiously with a shout.

“Run!” The other three Primal Chaos devils were quivering. They were completely terrified! The team led by Old Devil Xue Fu wasn’t any weaker than them, yet they were all extinguished within moments.

“Hong.”

The four of them rapidly retreated. They maintained their domain to prevent Xue Ying from teleporting close to them. Once they were 50,000 kilometers away from Marquis Ardent Fire, they immediately removed their private law domain suppression and teleported away.

…

“Run!”

“That is too terrifying.”

“Hurry up and escape!”

“If we are slow, we’d be dead for sure.”

The other four hundred-devil teams were instinctually escaping away. Even the powerful Old Devil Xue Fu with his three Primal Chaos experts were extinguished in an instance. What could they do against that white-robed young man?

…

The pure and holy white-robed male who was originally seated at the highest position of Ardent Fire City had a slight change in his expression. He did not hesitate to keep the Blood Sacrificial Magic Bottle. At the same time, he gave the orders: “The Blood Sacrifice will temporarily stop.”

“Yes.”

The teams of devil scattered around the Ardent Fire City acknowledged immediately, causing many of the cultivators who were escaping in a panic to fall into a daze. Why did those devils suddenly stop?

The Blood Sacrificial Magic Bottle was kept temporarily.

At this moment, even if the killing continued, the energy essence that came from the dispersing soul would be wasted too. He would allow those cultivators to live for a slightly longer period.

“Ying Shan Xue Ying?” White Cloud Devil Master kept the Blood Sacrificial Magic Bottle. At the same time, his gaze was cast to the distant white-robed young man.
