Chapter 132: I have a Strike

“Go.”

Qin Yun waved his hand.

The purple flying sword that was sheathed in a scabbard hanging at his waist instantly shot out like a purple stream of light. However, Flood Dragon King was surrounded by a rich Fiendcelestial aura through which the flying sword could not penetrate.

“The rumors are true.” Qin Yun retracted his eighth-grade purple flying sword. “The powers bestowed by Other Realm Fiendcelestials are unassailable unless one has strength at the level of Essence Soul immortals.”

“I heard that the Nine Lineage Fiendish Demons gained their heritage from Other Realm Fiendcelestials,” added Yi Xiao. “Every Other Realm Fiendcelestial is mysterious and unfathomable. I never expected I’d have the opportunity to see one. Even just vaguely being able to see that massive head makes me feel… like if this Other Realm Fiendcelestial chose to descend upon this world, he could probably destroy us in one strike.”

“Yea.” Qin Yun nodded. “However, there’s no need for worry. Only by creating a passage through the powers of sacrificed human flesh and blood will the Other Realm Fiendcelestial be able to bestow its power. If the amount of sacrifice is sufficiently high, it can bestow two treasures.”

“By the way, Yi Xiao, come to my side in a while.” Qin Yun alerted her.

“Alright.” Yi Xiao nodded.

Qin Yun watched from afar as Flood Dragon King was infused with power. “I don’t believe that he can go from the Connate True Core realm into the Connate Golden Core realm in one fell swoop! So even if he breaks through, I’m not afraid of a newly-enhanced Flood Dragon King.”

Despite saying so, he knew in his heart that he had to proceed carefully.

This time…

He had been commissioned by County Governor Song to slay great demons! Qin Yun had not thought much of it. Even though he discovered that the three demon monarchs of Evil Dragon Mountain had laid an ambush for him, and he suspected that the Zhongli family was behind the matter, he was unperturbed. Wasn’t it just three Connate True Core realm demon monarchs? So what if one of them was a flood dragon? Qin Yun even wanted to use the three of them as fodder to hone his flying sword.

After all, an opponent at such a level that would engage in a desperate fight was a rare practice partner.

His newly created sword art of Lightning Tide had been tested properly, even though it was done casually during the temporary clash. It had still managed to kill two of the demon monarchs. Now, only Flood Dragon King remained, and he began consecrating the Fiendcelestial! Against a legendary Other Realm Fiendcelestial, Qin Yun did not dare hold back even if it was only bestowing a tiny amount of its power.

…

On the other side.

Flood Dragon King offered the powers of flesh and blood he had accumulated into the fiendcelestial figurine at once. A passage was opened up as he made contact with a distant Other Realm Fiendcelestial.

“Oh, great Fiendcelestial!” Flood Dragon King transmitted his voice through the figurine. “Please give unto me your power.”

“I have three servants who offer me flesh and blood for my power. Where are the other two?” From afar, the Other Realm Fiendcelestial’s voice came. It was transmitted into Flood Dragon King’s mind through the powers that befell him.

“My brother and sister are dead!” Flood Dragon King said hurriedly, “It’s all because of the human sword immortal, Qin Yun.”

“It’s true that I cannot sense the other two servants’ aura. Tell me, what do you want? The more you sacrifice, the more you will obtain from me,” asked the Other Realm Fiendcelestial.

“I want to enhance my strength. I want my ‘Fiendish Mahesvara’ cultivation to reach the tenth level so that I can kill that human sword immortal,” pleaded Flood Dragon King through a voice transmission.

“Reach the tenth level? The amount of sacrifice you have is still insufficient,” replied the Other Realm Fiendcelestial.

Flood Dragon King felt heart-stricken.

It was indeed as expected.

The powers given in exchange for sacrificed flesh and blood were separated into several realms. The amount the three demon monarchs had gathered was barely in the range of the second to the third level. It was stuck in the middle of the two levels, and it was actually quite a waste. But there was no other way around it. Under pressure from Qin Yun, he would definitely die without using the sacrifice; therefore, he could only try his best.

“That is true. However, Great Fiendcelestial, perhaps you can bestow me with a method that will allow me to deal with the human sword immortal in front of me,” said Flood Dragon King with a voice transmission. “This human sword immortal’s strength can nearly rival the Connate Golden Core realm.”

“I shall bestow you with vibrant powers. It is something you can use even at your level. It will increase your strength greatly, but once it’s depleted, your strength will return to normal. This is the fastest way to increase your strength in a short amount of time. Do you accept it?” asked the Other Realm Fiendcelestial.

“I accept it! I accept it!”

Flood Dragon King didn’t have time to ask for anything else.

Although it was somewhat a waste of the flesh and blood offerings, all that mattered was that his strength would increase, allowing him to save himself. As for the flesh and blood sacrifices? He could slowly gather more in the future.

“Alright, as you wish.” The Other Realm Fiendcelestial immediately bestowed a special power. It was a drop of green liquid that was filled with an endless vibrancy, and it was directly transmitted into Flood Dragon King’s body.

“Weng!”

When the green droplet seeped into his body, Flood Dragon King felt his flesh absorb the green liquid immediately in a frenzied manner. Every part of his body underwent a transformation as his body began to expand. His partial humanoid form grew to about sixty-feet tall. A layer of black scaled armor that was marked with dark green patterns appeared over his body.

Flood Dragon King only felt that his body structure was undergoing change as his strength surged, allowing him to reach a whole new level that made him much more powerful than before.

“The Connate Golden Core realm is probably this.” Flood Dragon King sensed that the drop of green liquid in his body had shrunk greatly. As he stayed in this transformed state, the green droplet continued shrinking at an extremely slow rate. Flood Dragon King surmised that once it was completely drained, his strength would go back to what it was prior.

“My servant, I wish that you will sacrifice more flesh and blood the next time. The more you sacrifice, the more you will receive.” The Other Realm Fiendcelestial’s voice resounded in Flood Dragon King’s mind. Following that, the immense power rapidly receded.

The rift in the void also closed up.

Flood Dragon King put away the Fiendcelestial figurine. When he sensed the immense power in him, he immediately let out a rapturous laugh.

“Hahaha… Hahaha…” Unbridled laughter echoed everywhere as though tidal waves were sweeping across every spot.

Using a protective Dharma treasure, Yi Xiao protected her surroundings, including the group of humans behind her.

However, the lesser demons bore the brunt of the sound waves. They clenched their heads in pain.

“Stop shouting!”

“Your Majesty, stop shouting.”

“Your Draconic Majesty!” The lesser demons cried out in pain.

Flood Dragon King stopped and looked at Qin Yun. “Qin Yun, we were willing to give you gifts. Wouldn’t it be good if you had agreed to that? Instead, you have forced my siblings’ death and drove me to sacrifice the flesh and blood powers that I had prepared for so long. Now it will all amount to your death. Haven’t you made quite the mistake?”

“Flood Dragon King, your sister died by your own hand,” said Qin Yun.

“It was because you forced me!” said Flood Dragon King angrily. “Now, I’ll have you accompany my siblings in death!”

Boom!

Flood Dragon King transformed into a beam of light that shot straight at Qin Yun with astounding speed.

“Go.” The Intrinsic Flying Sword hovering in front of him instantly transformed into a fierce tidal wave that surged over like a lightning storm. As for Flood Dragon King, it was beneath him to dodge. He waved his claws and swiped down directly.

“Bam!”

The sharp claws clashed with the flying sword for an instant.

A terrifying shockwave blasted out in every direction, shattering the surrounding boulders. When the remnant waves reached some of the lesser demons a distance away, they were immediately pulverized.

The flying sword was sent backward from the strike, but Flood Dragon King’s body only jolted to a halt. He revealed a smile and guffawed, “Haha, your flying sword can’t do a thing to me.”

“Flood Dragon King, I have one strike that I have not used against an enemy ever since I comprehended it. Today, I’ll let you have a taste of it,” said Qin Yun with a smile.

His voice was still reverberating throughout the valley.

Hua!

The Intrinsic Flying Sword instantly tore through the sky. At that moment, everyone who saw that strike, be it human or demon, felt as though the sword was a moon that rose after breaking through substantial river waters.

It was too fast, so fast that it was like a dazzling beam.

It was also very beautiful, as beautiful as the bright moon.

A bright moon rose above the river.

A distance of more than a thousand feet was instantly traversed.

“No, begone!” Upon sensing the threat, Flood Dragon King waved his claws but the obstreperous and beautiful strike seemed like a sword art of heavenly immortals. It broke through his claws’ defense and stabbed into his chest despite him using all his strength.

Boom!

Flood Dragon King flew backward quite a distance in midair before grinding to a halt on the ground after several steps. The black armor that had formed on his body had a huge laceration on the chest. Large amounts of blood were spewing out of the wound.

Flood Dragon King looked at his chest before looking up at the distant Qin Yun. He said confounded, “What is the name of this sword art?”

“Bright Moon Over River!” Qin Yun nodded. “You are the first one to die by this sword art of mine.”

“Your strength is absolutely at the Connate Golden Core realm. However, you can’t kill me!” Flood Dragon King suddenly turned to flee.

“You won’t escape,” said Qin Yun.

Sou!

It seemed like a river’s waters were surging in the sky as a bright moon rose above those waters. Another strike hit Flood Dragon King, sending the escaping demon flying backward once again.

Bright Moon Over River represented the apex of Qin Yun’s present sword moves.

This strike was extremely fast and just the production of a sword beam could easily allow it to traverse tens of kilometers!

Although it was fast, it wasn’t ferocious. Instead, it was beautiful.

It was so beautiful that it did not seem like an attack from the mortal world.

“Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!”

The moonlight streams struck Flood Dragon King, preventing him from escaping at all.

“No!”

Flood Dragon King was truly horrified. He felt that the sword flashes endlessly inundated him. Although they were very beautiful, they were also very fast. He could not dodge them no matter how hard he tried! Even though his body was many times stronger than before, his injuries only worsened.

“How is this flying sword art so terrifying? How is it so fast?”
