Seeking the Flying Sword Path-Chapter 654 - Reversal
Translator: CKtalon Editor: CKtalon
“Brother Qin is in danger!” At the mouth of the Guan River, Yang Jian watched the situation unfold itself in the Huifeng Great World remotely.
He was indebted to Qin Yun for saving his life.
Yang Jian naturally wanted to help him, but there was no way he could help!
“Even the Fiend Ancestor has taken action?”
The existences in the Three Realms were paying close attention to the developments.
******
Inside the Huifeng Great World.
Qing Shuang was still in a state of shock, shocked that her master was the legendary Sword Immortal Qin.
“The Fiend Ancestor has already taken action to seal the entire Huifeng Great World.” Patriarch Spirit Devouring looked into space and smiled. “Qin Yun no longer has an opportunity to escape.”
“Bind!”
Patriarch Spirit Devouring roared as phenomenal dark-red array formations immediately produced countless dark-red threads which flew down. They formed a “cocoon” of massive scale. It completely bound the space where Qin Yun and Qing Shuang floated as they rapidly shrank!
“Master,” said Qing Shuang.
“That’s rather interesting.” Qin Yun watched as the dark red cocoon rapidly shrank. However, with a flick of his sleeve, the Misty Rain Sword flew out as three and floated around him.
“Whoosh~”
Drizzle-like rain scattered, each raindrop as heavy as a mountain. When the tiny raindrops touched the dark-red threads, the entire “cocoon” was impacted by the rain. Instantly, not only had the cocoon not shrunk, it even got scattered as a result of the impact.
The Intrinsic Flying Sword’s Misty Rain domain.
“Impossible.” The confident Patriarch Spirit Devouring was appalled when he saw this. “This is an array formation refined by the Fiend Ancestor himself. Even if I were to fend it off, I’d have thirty to forty percent of my strength repressed! According to the plan, Qin Yun required a Misty Rain Array formed by his Intrinsic Connate Cardinal treasure to withstand it. But just a mere domain is able to withstand this array’s might? Even a perfected Great Dao expert’s domain isn’t that powerful!”
The domain was too powerful.
It was beyond reason!
“Something’s amiss.” In space, Fiend Ancestor’s destruction body which had personally sealed the Huifeng Great World from the outside was paying constant attention to the battle. When he saw Qin Yun rely on a domain to withstand the erosion of the array formation, he had a nagging feeling that something was amiss.
“Hahaha…”
Accompanied by laughter, a towering figure in no way smaller than the Fiend Ancestor’s destruction body walked out of the void. The figure was a black-robed elder and he sent out four divine swords that surrounded the Huifeng Great World’s periphery, covering an area spanning half a million kilometers. A gigantic array formation appeared in the Huifeng Great World. It was a terrifying array formation that had been set up ahead of time—the Immortal Vanquishing Array that left even Heavenly Dao realm existences ashen.
“Immortal Vanquishing Array?” Fiend Ancestor frowned when he saw this. He bellowed, “Numinous Treasure, I can’t crack your Immortal Vanquishing Array, but with my obstruction, no other perfected Great Dao expert can enter the Huifeng Great World to save your disciple.”
“Save my disciple?” Numinous Treasure Dao Ancestor chortled as he stood there, his terrifying Immortal Vanquishing Array enveloping his surroundings. “Are you mistaken?”
“Mistaken?” Fiend Ancestor, who was constantly paying attention to the Huifeng Great World, suddenly had a drastic change in expression. “No good!”
…
“Go.”
Qin Yun released his Misty Rain Sword and defended against the array formation’s might with his Misty Rain domain.
Next, with a thought, the three flying sword manifestations of the Misty Rain Sword flew in every direction. The speed was so fast that it drained the color of Patriarch Spirit Devouring’s face. “Why is the flying sword so fast? Are Intrinsic Connate Cardinal treasures that fast?”
Indeed.
It was too fast!
Perfected Great Dao existences could fly hundreds of thousands of kilometers in seconds, but if a Connate Cardinal treasure were to be in an assault, its speed would be ten times faster.
However, Qin Yun’s flying sword was even faster! Even among perfected Great Dao experts in the Three Realms, the speed of Qin Yun’s armaments was definitely ranked as one of the top few.
It just took a blink of an eye.
Three flying swords separated as they took their spots in three positions separated by half a million kilometers.
“Boom!”
The three swords stemmed from the same source.
With a thought from Qin Yun, the Misty Rain Array activated. Instantly, the half a million kilometer void was plunged into a massive world. This massive world was a manifestation of the dissociation of Heaven, Earth, and Man. There were also various powers like Yin Yang, Life, Limitless, and Decimation that appeared. Clearly, Qin Yun was able to fully express the Misty Rain Sword’s might after attaining a perfected Great Dao.
When such a terrifying array formation appeared, it left Patriarch Spirit Devouring dazed.
Faced with the natural evolution of the array formation’s world, he trembled.
“T-this…” He was completely dumbfounded. He had lived since the period of Chaos, so he was very knowledgeable as well.
The might of the Misty Rain Array was ten times stronger than when Qin Yun battled the avatar of Taowu, one of the Chaos Three Banes! It was a qualitative change. Even normal perfected Great Dao experts would fear such strength. It was indisputable that it was half-step Heavenly Dao realm strength.
“Half-step Heavenly Dao realm. This is the strength of the half-step Heavenly Dao realm.” Patriarch Spirit Devouring found it unbelievable. “H-how is he this strong? T-this…”
He felt aggrieved.
He had clearly set up a trap to kill Qin Yun.
But why did it become him being the one trapped in the Misty Rain Array? Furthermore, the might and terror of the Misty Rain Array left him appalled.
“Daoist Wen, I have recently broken through to the perfected Great Dao realm. I have not had a chance to test my skills all this while.” Qin Yun laughed as his voice resounded through the world. “What a coincidence that you are the one dealing with me today. I’ve finally encountered a good opponent. Make sure not to disappoint me by dying after two or three strikes.”
“You broke through to the perfected Great Dao realm?” Even Patriarch Spirit Devouring’s blood-colored brows were trembling.
Sword immortals were well known for destroying all Dharma with a single sword. They were best in combat.
A perfected Great Dao sword immortal? It was unprecedented! Furthermore, he had an Intrinsic Connate Cardinal treasure in hand!
“Then why were you sneaking around, concealing yourself from the heavenly secrets and traveling a Great World incognito?” Patriarch Spirit Devouring said hoarsely. “It was deliberate?”
“Yes, it was. If I had revealed my strength early, would you have walked into the trap?” Qin Yun’s eyes were cold. “Daoist Wen, your spirit devouring lineage has devoured countless lives. Your sins are heinous. You are doomed! No one in the Three Realms can save you. But no hurry, I’ll remove the Fiend Ancestor’s array formation before killing you.”
Immediately, Misty Rain Sword flashes tore through the Huifeng Great World in a bid to destroy all the nodes in the Fiend Ancestor’s array formation. Now that Daoist Wen was trapped and without anyone being capable of stopping Qin Yun, it was very easy for him to dismantle the array formation.
This scene left the experts in the Huifeng Great World quivering.
“Isn’t Patriarch Spirit Devouring here to deal with Qin Yun? Why is he the one being trapped?” Black Wind Sect Master was horrified. “After killing Daoist Wen, will he kill me in passing?”
Black Wind Sect Master had thought too highly of himself.
For a trivial character like him, even Qin Yun could not be bothered. The highest priority was to kill Daoist Wen.
“Half-step Heavenly Dao realm?” On the East Xiao Fiend Mountain in the Huifeng Great World was a palatial complex.
This was where the Lord of the Huifeng Great World, who was also Hundun of the Chaos Three Bane, resided.
He was watching everything happen with sweat rolling down his face. “Half-step Heavenly Dao realm? This Qin Yun actually has the strength of a half-step Heavenly Dao realm? Furthermore, it’s so terrifying. If trapped by his array formation, there’s no way to escape at all. Even God King Zhurong isn’t as terrifying as him.”
“Sword Immortal Qin, congratulations.” However, Hundun acted very polite on the surface as he sent a voice transmission remotely. “Congratulations for reaching the perfected Great Dao, Sword Immortal Qin. This Daoist Wen is really overconfident. Might I know if there’s any help you need from me? Feel free to ask if there’s any.”
He was not afraid of the Fiend Ancestor or the Dao Ancestors.
That was because the Heavenly Dao realm experts could not do a thing to him in a Great World.
Instead, it was half-step Heavenly Dao realm experts that left the Chaos Three Banes most afraid.
…
The Fiend Ancestor was confounded.
Why did this happen? It was originally a plot to kill Qin Yun, but why did it turn to this?
“There’s my obedient disciple inside. And outside, there’s his master, me, having set up an array. No one in the Three Realms can save this Daoist Wen. He’s doomed,” said Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure with a furtive smile.
