Chapter 472: Might of the Intrinsic Flying Sword!

Translator: CKtalon Editor: CKtalon

“Hawk Fiend King is most adept at escaping but he failed . Was the Dharma spell that Sword Immortal Qin cast a kind of domain-type Dharma spell?”

“Sword Immortal Qin is ultimately an Essence Soul sword immortal . He has weak Dharmic powers, so it’s impossible to cast such a powerful Dharma spell . I believe it’s a powerful divine power . I know that there are Essence Soul Earth Immortals and Buddhist Arhats that specialize in the cultivation of divine powers in the Three Realms . “

“Do you know what divine power that is?”

“I’ve never seen it before . “

“I’ve never heard of it before . “

The five great demons were discussing via voice transmission, but none of them had any intention of intervening in the battle .

These great demons that had lived for eons were all very crafty and careful .

To take action now? Wouldn’t that be courting death?

…

Deep underground .

Roots were escaping in different directions and more than two hundred Swords of Stellar Light were pursuing them .

“He’s fast . “

However, Old Tree Demon, who was extremely confident when it came to escaping underground, discovered that the his roots were moving at a drastically reduced speed thanks to the hindrance of the stellar forces . Furthermore, the Swords of Stellar Light were rapidly catching up to him .

“What? Hawk Fiend King died just like that? An ally I have been nurturing for so many years has perished just like that?” Old Tree Demon shuddered a little .

Puah! Puah! Puah!

The Swords of Stellar Light caught up to him .

They attacked each and every root . There were a total of twenty-seven roots escaping in different directions but under the Swords of Stellar Light’s attacks, one by one, they were pulverized .

Soon, there was only one root left .

Eight Swords of Stellar Light attacked it .

This root suffused a dark red luster . The Swords of Stellar Light were only capable of leaving scuffs on the root before it quickly healed to normal . The dark red root suddenly raised its speed drastically as it burrowed deeper underground .

“This root is his true body . The rest are just fakes . ” Qin Yun was constantly sensing his surroundings .

Hu! Hu! Hu!

Many Swords of Stellar Light chased up to the old tree demon’s true root .

As the root was hindered by the stellar forces, the Swords of Stellar Light that were closest began to catch up . More than fifty Swords of Stellar Light surrounded the root and attacked it . However, the dark red root was robust and slippery . Even though it was damaged, it could rapidly recover .

Soon, he escaped to the periphery of the Heavenly Cycle Stellar Realm .

The Heavenly Cycle Stellar Realm under peak performance reached its limit at a hundred and fifty kilometers .

“Bam!”

The dark red root slammed heavily into the Heavenly Cycle Stellar Realm’s membrane . This repeated a few times until the membrane produced a large number of cracks .

The Heavenly Cycle Stellar Realm was indeed a world of its own and had membrane walls around it . Qin Yun had only gained a basic grasp of this divine power, so although the Swords of Stellar Light could perform sword arts, the world membrane was only formed by the divine power . It was much weaker .

“Bam!”

The membrane cracked completely upon a second strike . The dark red root charged out .

“I’ve finally escaped the divine power’s domain . ” Old Tree Demon was delighted . Without the hindrance of the stellar forces, his escaping speed rose drastically .

“Time to leave . ” Old Tree Demon immediately produced a Dao talisman . He planned on using it to escape through Void Transference .

“Hum–”

However, a three-hundred-kilometer Dao domain easily repressed the void around Old Tree Demon . It was impossible for him to engage in Void Transference .

“Relying on a divine power is insufficient against him . ” Qin Yun waved his hand as a wisp of misty rain shot out from his fingertip .

It shot through the void!

The Misty Rain Sword vanished in midair and, when it appeared again, it was already deep underground .

“What’s that?” Old Tree Demon panicked .

A glaring golden-white sword flash instantly carved out a hundred thousand feet underground . It also directly sliced through the extremely robust root .

The dark red root was split into two and squirmed and expanded rapidly . It turned into a towering blackish-red tree .

The towering tree had tore out of the ground . Countless roots entrenched themselves in the depths of the land . The tree trunk was extremely thick but there was a gnarly wound that emanated from the countless roots up to the main trunk . The wound stretched across the trunk and on the tree’s crown, a gigantic face appeared . It pleaded loudly, “Sword Immortal Qin, spare me! Please spare me! I admit defeat! We can negotiate on anything!”

“One strike is actually insufficient to kill you?” Qin Yun was somewhat astonished .

His use of his Intrinsic Flying Sword brought a might that was far greater than the Heavenly Cycle Stellar Realm’s Swords of Stellar Light which he only had a rudimentary understanding of .

“I’ll try again . Let’s see how many strikes you can withstand,” said Qin Yun .

“Whoosh . “

The glaring golden-white sword flashes were more glaring than the sun in the sky .

The sword flashes streaked across a hundred thousand feet with golden-white light, slicing across the towering tree! After the tree was sliced, it rapidly healed . But several tree branches and leaves withered immediately .

“Whoosh . “

A second golden-white sword flash .

The two sword flashes were dazzling . With an indignant roar, the towering tree wilted completely and was destroyed .

Old Tree Demon had perished as well .

“This is his true strength?” The five great demons in Hawk Fiend King’s nest saw everything clearly . The two golden-white sword flashes contained an infinite sharpness . It left them reeling in fear, for they knew it would be absolutely impossible for them to withstand even one strike .

“This Old Tree Demon sure is resistant . He managed to withstand three strikes of mine . ” Qin Yun beckoned .

The treasures left behind after Old Tree Demon’s death rapidly flew over .

“This is the tree core he left behind after his death . ” Qin Yun held the dark green tree core . “His strength is clearly higher than Hawk Fiend King’s . I wonder where his grievous sins come from . In addition, what did he do to earn that terrifying grievance aura?”

Qin Yun did not bother thinking on it any further .

Qin Yun swept up all the treasures Old Tree Demon and Hawk Fiend King left behind . He saw the shuddering and fawning smiles of the five great demons, including the two great demons that had been nasty to him previously . They were trying to curry favor with him .

When met with absolute strength… a person who could kill them in one strike, all they could do was give fawning smiles when being powerless to resist .

“Together with Fiendlord Baichan, the three targets have been eliminated . It’s time to return . ” Qin Yun immediately used his disciple mark and sensed the distant Green Touring Palace .

Buzz!

A blurry light descended upon Qin Yun before he vanished .

He had left this spot, left the entire Effulgent dominion . He headed for the legendary place in the Three Realms, Green Touring Palace .

“He’s gone . ” The pig demon heaved a sigh of relief . “He scared me shitless . “

“An Essence Soul sword immortal can actually be so terrifying . ” The snake demon felt a lingering fear .

…

Green Touring Palace .

Qin Yun came to a hall, and on its door were the words—Fiend Vanquishment .

Upon entering Fiend Vanquishment Hall, he was met with an empty space . Only a mirror hung inside .

The surface of the mirror distorted into that of an elder .

“Senior . ” Qin Yun bowed respectfully . “I have just completed the first round of tests . “

“Oh? Qin Yun, I’ve heard of you,” said the elder in the mirror with a chuckle . “Among the disciples Master recently took in, there is talk of one who forged a new sword immortal lineage . I have always been wanting to meet you . But it’s only today that you came to meet me after completing the first round of tests . You came a little later than I expected . “

“I apologize . I was not completely confident in my strength prior to this,” said Qin Yun .

“Which fiends did you kill?” asked the elder in the mirror .

“I’ve just killed three . They are Fiendlord Baichan of the Effulgent dominion, as well as Hawk Fiend King and Old Tree Demon of the Hawk Fiend world,” said Qin Yun .

“Let me verify that . ” The elder vanished after saying those words . Furthermore, battle scenes surfaced on the mirror .

They were scenes of Qin Yun killing Fiendlord Baichan, Hawk Fiend King, and Old Tree Demon .

If one wanted to lie?

It was impossible to lie to the Dao Ancestor .

Following that, the surface of the mirror transformed back to the elder’s image .

“Qin Yun, these are the treasures Master prepared for you . Take this . ” With that said, the void warped and a yellow-skinned calabash flew out .

Qin Yun extended his hand to grab it in anticipation .
