Chapter 604: The Golden Shield Isn’t Happy (1.3 for 1 Chapter)
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
The blue Mystic Sun Shield turned into a transparent wall that shielded the sky. When the sword energies hit the shield, it didn’t break and only ripped a little.
Then, Lingwu Master only moved his finger, and a bright red, strong light shot directly toward Hao Ren’s shoulder!
Lingwu Master reached peak Nascent Soul Realm and could use techniques on this level.
Although Hao Ren had the strength of peak Qian-level, he did not have anything other than the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll!
Puff!
This finger strike pierced into Hao Ren’s shoulder! Blood gushed out!
Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia were both terrified.
A moment ago, Hao Ren had defeated 300 Core Formation Realm cultivators. However, he was being beaten so severely that he was sent flying toward the valley.
Little White roared and quickly flew over to catch Hao Ren.
“You dare to hurt disciples of my Sky Mountain Sect! Die!” Lingwu Master put back his Mystic Sun Shield and pointed at Hao Ren again.
It was awe-inspiring that Hao Ren could control 40,940 sword energies. Therefore, even Lingwu Master couldn’t estimate what kind of power Hao Ren had. Thus, the first finger strike was a test.
However, this second strike was targeting Hao Ren’s heart!
In two moves, the battle was over!
The cultivator of peak Nascent Soul Realm was on a different league.
In Lingwu Master’s mind, he thought that people like Hao Ren who got to peak Nascent Soul Realm in a split second relied on some secret technique or elixir pill.
Hao Ren was able to beat a bunch of Core Formation Realm cultivators, but he wouldn’t be able even to touch a peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivator!
“Three Talent Heaven Earth Array Formation!”
Hao Ren moved his hands rapidly.
The 40,960 sword energies came back to Hao Ren and then formed three large groups!
Hao Ren had studied book that Old Grandma gave him in detail, so he had seen the sword array formations beyond his power level. That was why he was able to use the Ten Sides Ambush Array Formation when he reached peak Qian-level. However, he was still most adept with Three Talent Heaven Earth Array Formation since he used it most often.
The 40,960 sword energies rushed toward the bright red light.
Bang! The sword energies rushed directly at Lingwu Master. They suddenly formed One-line Snake Array Formation and charged at the Mystic Sun Shield!
“Retrieve!” Lingwu Master opened his eyes wide, and the blue Mystic Sun Shield turned into the size of a palm and blocked the 40,960 sword energies that Hao Ren shot out.
Bo! Bo! Bo! Bo! Bo! The 40,960 sword energies went into groups of 16 and charged at the Mystic Sun Shield one after another.
Lingwu Master was knocked back three steps, and he looked at Hao Ren in shock.
“It’s useless! The Mystic Sun Shield is the strongest shield in the world. Even the peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivators can’t shatter it!” Lingwu Master said as he steadied his form.
Sky Mountain Sect had passed down the Mystic Sun Shield for generations to Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. It had followed many generations of Nascent Soul Realm cultivators and therefore was unbreakable. It matched exceptionally well with Lingwu Master since he had been using it since 800 years ago; they could become one.
The reason why Lingwu Master never lost a fight in this 100 year against anyone was that no one could break through the defense of the Mystic Sun Shield!
He even was able to use the Mystic Sun Shield to forcefully defeat a mid-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivator when he was only in the low-tier of Nascent Soul Realm!
The cultivation world was like this. The long someone lived, the stronger he or she was.
Lingwu Master was very confident in the Mystic Sun Shield!
Whoosh!
The golden shield had flown close to Hao Ren and watched his actions. It finally couldn’t help it, and it appeared behind him.
Lingwu Master saw that there was a dim, gong-shaped shield behind Hao Ren and laughed very hard. He then squinted his eyes and shouted, “Come back!”
He put his right hand out, and the Sky-Turning Stamp that Hao Ren put into his necklace suddenly flew out and dashed toward Lingwu Master.
Hao Ren reached out to catch it, but he couldn’t beat Lingwu Master’s power. This dharma treasure originally belonged to Lingwu Master, and Hao Ren had spent all his strength on controlling the sword energies. Therefore, there was no way that he could fight off Lingwu Master.
The golden Sky-Turning Stamp flew back to Lingwu Master’s hand. Then, Lingwu Master flicked it, and it faced Hao Ren. The cracks on it which were resulted from Hongyuan Master’s golden bell quickly healed when Lingwu Master’s nature essence flowed inside, and it glittered with light again!
“You’re quite impressive to be able to force me to use two dharma treasures!” Lingwu Master raised the Sky-Turning Stamp, and the nature essence within 50 kilometers all gathered.
The golden light was incredibly eye-piercing!
Lingwu Master had gone into seclusion cultivation for hundreds of years and finally became a peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. He wanted to test out his powers!
“Die!”
Lingwu Master threw the Sky-Turning Stamp fiercely.
Bang… The golden light brightened all directions, lighting all corners on Fifth Heaven.
The bright light could make everyone go blind!
Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia quickly covered their eyes and lied face-down on the ground.
Without the protection of the energy sphere, Ethereal Summit was shaken heavily.
Dust flew up over 100 meters, and it looked as if mountains were collapsing.
“Yao, let’s go!” Lingwu Master shouted.
He thought that with the stomp of his stamp, even mid-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivators would be squished. Hundreds of years ago when he was still at mid-tier Nascent Soul Realm, he had finished off a low-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivator like this!
That low-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivator didn’t even have a chance to escape! His body and nascent soul ended up vanishing into thin air! Even the dharma treasures of that low-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivator were crushed into pieces!
The dust soon settled.
Lingwu Master looked down from above and saw that Hao Ren was unharmed!
In front of Hao Ren was a golden shield. The round shield only had a diameter of about 20 centimeters, but it was capable of withstanding strike of the Sky-Turning Stamp!
Between the round shield and Hao Ren was a layer made of 40,960 sword energies. These sword energies acted as cushions and could decrease the strength of the Sky-Turning Stamp even if its attack pierced through the golden shield.
Zhao Yanzi lied down on the ground; she didn’t dare to open her eyes and covered them with her hands.
After a while, she opened her fingers a bit and saw that Hao Ren was fine.
“That scared me to death…” Zhao Yanzi thought; she was so relieved that she almost cried. She had thought that Hao Ren was going to be killed by that strike!
“Huh?!” Lingwu Master immediately put the Mystic Sun Shield in front of himself, and he was astonished to see Hao Ren unharmed.
Buzz… The golden shield which had a dim surface suddenly let out golden lights!
It was even brighter than the light of the Sky-Turning Stamp!
The Core Formation Realm cultivators who got foundation establishment pills were climbing up the mountain, and they all covered their eyes and started rolling down the hill again.
Even Lingwu Master, a peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, couldn’t withstand such light and thus squinted.
“Calm!”
Lingwu Master crossed his hands and suddenly let out a strong aura!
The Sky-Turning Stamp let out even brighter lights, and runes of godly creatures appeared around it.
The Sky-Turning Stamp’s level was not as high as the Mystic Sun Shield, but it was made from the blood of a phoenix.
It was a top-tier fire-elemental dharma treasure, and Lingwu Master was a fire-elemental peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. Therefore, he was capable of using it to its maximum potential!
Since he was worried about hurting Duan Yao as well, he didn’t use his full power. However, now he was sure that Duan Yao had already escaped since he warned her, so he unleashed his power!
In reality, Duan Yao stood there in shock, looking at Hao Ren and Lingwu Master; she completely forgot that she had to escape.
Whoosh! A lively phoenix rose above the Sky-Turning Stamp!
Full power!
Under such an attack could probably open a hole on Fifth Heaven, let along killing Hao Ren.
Hao Ren used all 40,960 sword energies as well!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The golden shield absorbed all of Hao Ren’s 40,960 sword energies that were dashed to it!
The supreme spiritual treasure was fully charged with nature essence!
Golden lights shot out brightly!
Bang!
The Sky-Turning Stamp was blown away by tens of thousands of meters!
“How… how is this possible!” Lingwu Master looked at the golden shield which was in front of Hao Ren in shock.
Hua! Hua! Hua! Hua! The golden shield let out thousands of golden lights, and the entire Fifth Heaven was lit up by them.
Even the sects thousands of kilometers away were all awakened by such sudden bright light.
Hao Ren’s sword energies activated the golden shield’s power, so it was able to use all its powers!
Tens of thousands of small shields scattered around the area with a diameter of 500 kilometers.
Together, they formed an array formation that was shining like stars. No cultivator could get out in one piece if they stepped into this array formation!
“Supreme spiritual treasure!” Lingwu Master’s eyes suddenly widened as big as a bell.
For a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, he sure knew his stuff!
The golden shield spun smoothly and dashed toward Lingwu Master!
Lingwu Master rushed to use the Mystic Sun Shield to block in desperation!
Bam!
The golden shield only lightly bumped into the Mystic Sun Shield.
Crack! The blue Mystic Sun Shield broke into five pieces!
The golden shield spun above Lingwu Master, shining lights upon Lingwu Master like a stage light.
Lingwu Master had just come out of his seclusion cultivation and felt invincible, but now, he was extremely frightened.
Lingwu Master had never seen a supreme spiritual treasure during his thousand years of cultivation. However, this might be his first time and last time seeing one on Fifth Heaven.
“Don’t you dare hurt my grand uncle-master!”
Suddenly, a crisp voice sounded from the valley.
The dust in the valley had settled.
In the valley, Duan Yao’s arm was around Zhao Yanzi’s neck.
The essence-locking note that Hao Ren had placed on her was no longer effective, so her low-tier Core Formation Realm strength had recovered.
Zhao Yanzi’s face turned bright red because Duan Yao’s arm was choking her. Her realm and martial art skills weren’t as strong as Duan Yao’s. Now that Duan Yao’s arm locked her neck, she had no way of getting out of the situation.
Xie Yujia pulled on her demonic bow and aimed it at Duan Yao, but she didn’t dare to do anything reckless.
“Good! Good! Good!” Lingwu Master shouted three swords. His face was pale due to freight, but now it recovered its red glow. He shouted, “That’s my Yao!”
Duan Yao clenched her teeth tightly and stared at Hao Ren.
“Let her go!” Hao Ren turned around to face the valley with thousands of sword energies sparkling around him. The sparkling sword energies indicated that Hao Ren was furious.
“Duan Yao, kill her!” Behind Hao Ren, an even louder voice sounded.
Duan Yao looked at Hao Ren and then at Lingwu Master who was even higher up in the sky. Her dark black eyes showed a bit of hesitation.
“Kill her!” The voice commanded from high up in the sky.
Duan Yao moved her right hand slightly.
Lingwu Master shouted, “I, your grand uncle-master, have already reached peak Nascent Soul Realm and won’t be easily defeated!”
“If you kill her, I’ll exterminate your whole sect!” Hao Ren shouted angrily, and his voice echoed in the valley as his sword energies started to vibrate.
He didn’t know much about what happened between Duan Yao, Zhao Yanzi, and Xie Yujia, so he left Duan Yao with Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi while he fought with the enemies.
However, the situation was very clear now!
Boom!
Thousands of meters away, the Sky-Turning Stamp that had been blown away by the golden shield flew back and struck Hao Ren’s back!
Hao Ren stared at Duan Yao and reacted one second slow, so he was struck by the Sky-Turning Stamp and spat out a mouthful of blood. He fell from Little White’s back and was blown a hundred meters away.
“Hahahaha,” Lingwu Master laughed hard, and tens of mysterious black items suddenly appeared on his palm.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
The golden shield which was above Lingwu Master’s head was blown away and got stuck in a faraway cliff.
Heavenly Lightning Balls! Lingwu Master had spent 200 years creating these secret weapons! One Heavenly Lightning Ball was enough to blow away a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator!
Lingwu Master had thrown ten all at once!
Any cultivator who had reached the Nascent Soul Realm would not use their ultimate weapons easily. These ten Heavenly Lightning Balls were Lingwu Master’s ultimate weapon. No one knew he had such explosive treasures because he wouldn’t use it unless he was in a life-threatening situation!
“Hahahaha! The power of the supreme spiritual treasure is so-so!” Lingwu Master looked over and saw that the golden shield had been blown off, so he looked down and stared at Duan Yao.
“Kill her!” he commanded!
“Kill! Kill! Kill!”
This word dashed in Duan Yao’s mind.
Duan Yao’s right hand reached over to Zhao Yanzi’s arm and got back her Purple Green Treasure Sword. Then, she used it to cut through the array formation in Zhao Yanzi’s storage ring and got back her two jade pendants.
“Grand Uncle-Master, I got my stuff back! I’ll go back to the sect with you!” Duan Yao shouted.
“Yao!” Lingwu Master raised his brows and stared at Duan Yao. “You have to kill her! You have to kill everyone that bullies you!”
“They didn’t bully me!” Duan Yao shouted.
“You have to kill her since she stole your technique! Everyone in Herb King Valley must die!” Lingwu Master’s voice was like a rumble of thunder.
The word ‘die’ almost deafened all the cultivators in the area.
Whoosh! Xie Yujia shot an arrow at Lingwu Master.
“Stupid tricks!” Lingwu Master waved his hand slightly, and a gust of wind blew the arrow away. Then, Xie Yujia was also blown to the ground along with her bow.
“I won’t do anything, but you have to kill them both!” Lingwu Master shouted again.
The Sky-Turning Stamp returned to Lingwu Master’s hand while it shone dim lights.
“I won’t kill them!” Duan Yao pushed away Zhao Yanzi. Then, she stepped on her Purple Green Treasure Sword and flew into the sky.
“Yao, you’re too weak! If you don’t kill them, they’ll still die! Let me do it myself and kill them all for you!” Lingwu Master flapped his Sky-Turning Stamp.
Golden light beams shot out from the Sky-Turning Stamp, and they directly hit Duan Yao’s Purple Green Treasure Sword, knocking Duan Yao away tens of meters.
Bam!
Another thick beam of light that was as big as the size of a pond pressed toward Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi in the valley.
Two Foundation Establishment Realm female cultivators were like ants to Lingwu Master.
Whoosh! Whoosh! The 40,960 sword energies made a hole in the golden light beam!
Colorful sword energies spun and aimed at Lingwu Master!
“Miracle of Nature! Righteous Lightning!”
The 40960 sword energies combined into 8192 heavenly lightning when five of each elemental sword energies merged.
“Hahaha, little guy. Who made you so unhappy?”
A relaxed voice sounded from the west side of the mountains.
