Chapter 1171 One Great Sword To Shake The Earth

~DENG~

Finally the Great Sword struck its first target, a Dao Shell.

~Cough~

The Dao Treading realm cultivator to whom the Dao Shell belonged to directly coughed out mouthfuls of blood as cracks spread over his Dao shell.

~KACHA~

The Dao shell couldn’t bear the force and was directly split apart, with the edge of the Great Sword hitting the Snow Bell Dao Embryo inside, shattering it as well!

”Noooo!” the Dao Treading realm cultivator unwillingly cried out, but couldn’t stop Lin Mu in time.

The others tried to do it as well, but Lin Mu’s momentum was simply too fast. 

~shua~

Lin Mu stepped off a broken half of the Dao Shell and shot towards another enemy.

~CLANG~

This time though he met a barrier and was blocked by several of the Dao Treading realm cultivators. 

”We won’t let you do as you please any longer.” They said as rage overflowed from their faces.

Lin Mu paid no heed to their words though and simply spun around with the Great Sword, gaining circular velocity and turning into a top. 

~WOOO~

Winds blew from the momentum, as Lin Mu accelerated towards the barrier again.

~DENG~

”BREAK!” Lin Mu exerted more power as the Great Sword shone in a brown and yellow light.

”Hold it! Hold it!” The Dao Treading realm cultivators said as they too poured their powers into the barrier.

While they did that, the other Dao Treading realm cultivators approached Lin Mu from the behind, intending to attack him. Lin Mu though, was tracking their every move and knew where they were at all times.

Flicker… Blink… Phase… Flicker

One skill after the other was used as all of their attacks were dodged with astonishing efficiency. Lin Mu appeared behind one of the Dao Treading realm cultivators and used the man’s back as a pivot and swung sideways, not only slashing the man but also his companion that was ten meters away.

~SLASH~

The power of the slash was astounding, creating a clear imprint in the air with the amplification from the sword intent. 

”ARGH!”

”Don’t let the sword get near you! It will make you sluggish!” one of the Dao Treading realm cultivators finally understood what the effect of Lin Mu’s Dao Embryo was.

The True Earth Heart Embryo was a unique type of a Dao embryo and since even Xukong didn’t know about it, Lin Mu would have to depend on himself to understand it.

When the Dao Embryo had been born, Lin Mu had innately understood some aspects of it as well as the initial Dao Skill that came with it. But there was a lot more to the Dao embryo than just that. 

First of all, the basic ability of the True Earth Heart Dao Embryo was to use the Dao Traces within it to convert spirit qi into a solid form, turning it into any form of earth, whether it be soil, stones or rocks.

Then there was the skill that came with it, that allowed Lin Mu to exert a ‘heavy’ aura on those that were near him. Currently the limit of this skill was just two meters around Lin Mu, but he hoped to increase it after using it enough times.

These two things combined made a terrifying Dao Skill which Lin Mu had termed as Earthen Armament Aspect. It allowed him to create certain weapons with the use of his Dao Shell and spirit weapons.

The Dao Skill borrowed the structure of the Dao Shell and the qualities of the Spirit weapon to form an entirely new weapon. The True Earth Heart  Dao Embryo would become the ‘core’ of the weapon or more accurately its ‘heart’ allowing it to directly exert a power that could not be blocked by conventional methods.

The strength of his Dao Embryo and Dao shell was now presented immaculately as he tore though the enemies, breaking their Dao shells and splitting their bodies.

~BOOM~

~BANGS

~THUD~

A cacophony of noises were heard as Lin Mu’s battle became a lot more boisterous. Not just that, but the cries of pain coming from the Dao Treading realm cultivators of the northern tribes were also attention grabbing.

”Enough! Defend against him now! We can’t be on the offensive like this.” The leader of the Dao Treading realm cultivators’ group spoke.

~DING~ 

”Snow Bell Embryo: Icy Fields!” The Dao Treading realm cultivators chanted in unison as the bell like Dao embryos all rang together.

A chilly aura spread all over the area while snow and ice started to appear. The energy waves coming from the Snow Bells was affecting the entire battlefield changing its looks once more.

”Humph! The ice is useless now.” Lin Mu said as he raised the Great Sword up high.

~KACHA~

He brought it down with all his power, splitting apart the solid ice that was trying to block him. And not just that, but even the ground itself was split apart, creating a deep fissure that extended for nearly five hundred meters!

”AAAAAAA!” the Dao Treading realm cultivators caught in the area of the attack were knocked back while ice shards and fragments broke off from the ground, shooting far into the distance.

”Watch out!” Lin Mu warned his allies.

He had not expected his attack to have such a wide reaching effect and even some of his allies were caught in it. 

”WHOA!” Lin Mu’s voice alerted them and they barely managed to dodge the incoming ice shards.

If this was just normal ice, they would have had not issues. But this ice was made from a Dao skill executed by the Dao Treading realm cultivators and thus could pass on the freezing effect onto their bodies.

It was best to avoid it as any injuries sustained would only make them weaker.

~HAA~

Lin Mu took a deep breath and rested the Great Sword on his shoulders as he observed his body.

’Using the Dao Embryo is certainly a lot more tiring than I expected.’ He thought to himself.
