Chapter 367: Crisis Looms! The Ultimate Tai Yi Proof! (4k)
The woman's aura was weak, her eyes tightly shut as if she were still unconscious.
The next moment—
Whoosh!
A beam of sword light suddenly illuminated the grand hall.
The woman's eyes snapped open, and her figure vanished from her original spot.
But the sword light followed her like a shadow, slicing into the void in the direction she had fled.
"Ugh!"
A muffled groan echoed from the void.
Immediately after, a severed arm fell from the void, and blood splattered everywhere.
The woman's figure reappeared in the hall, looking disheveled.
"I said! I said!"
As the sword light struck again, her face paled, and she hurriedly cried out.
Wu Qingping's expression remained unchanged, and he did not swing the long sword in his hand.
Yun Qing slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
In that moment, she had truly felt an incredibly dense death intent!
It seemed that if she had been a moment later, she would have died under that sword! Her gaze fell upon the two figures across from her, and her heart sank to the extreme.
In these ruins, two such powerful Tai Yi beings had emerged from the Human Realm! If she wanted to leave alive, she had to do something!
In that instant, various thoughts rapidly surged in her mind.
Just then, the figure in golden-patterned dark robe frowned slightly, showing some impatience as he spoke.
"Speak."
Hearing this, Yun Qing's heart tightened. This person's killing intent towards her was the strongest! So she quickly calmed her mind and said, "I come from beyond these heavens, from a place called the Yun Lai Realm."
"There, the heavens are vibrant, and powerful beings are countless, unlike this place's decay. I came alone, following my sect's orders, to pursue a rebellious sect traitor."
"If I don't return in time, the sect will send even stronger beings than me."
As she spoke, she began to heal her severed right arm while carefully observing the expressions of the two Human Realm individuals.
But in her gaze, the two maintained their calm, revealing no thoughts.
Wu Qingping continued, "The Heavenly Demon Pavilion you mentioned, is that your sect?"
Yun Qing nodded and replied, "The Heavenly Demon Pavilion is one of the top powers even in the Yun Lai Realm."
"Within the sect, there are numerous Tai Yi masters, and there are also Tai Yi Real Realm elders, the sect leader, whose strength far surpasses the Tai Yi Virtual Realm."
"If you two let me go, I can assure you that the Heavenly Demon Pavilion will no longer pay attention here. After all, this place is just a ruin."
"And my purpose in coming here is merely to hunt down a rebellious sect traitor, not to destroy this realm."
At this point, she paused for a moment, her face showing struggle and hesitation, before continuing, "I can tell you a secret."
"In the void of these ruins, not only are there small worlds sealing Tai Yi Demons..."
"But there's also a place called the Demon Ruins!"
"Inside, the invading Demon Race army from the Qionglae Realm is sealed, including Tai Yi Demons, and it's rumored that a Great Dharmaraja is sealed within!"
Hearing this, Wu Qingping's expression finally showed a hint of emotion, his eyes narrowing slightly as if processing this information.
Yun Qing was delighted by this and quickly added, "The sect traitor I mentioned earlier, he intends to unseal the Demon Ruins and release all the sealed Demons!"
"If you release the Demons inside, your realm will be the first to be destroyed!"
"And my presence here is, in a way, saving you!"
Yun Qing became more agitated as she spoke.
Wu Qingping's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Qin Zheng slowly stepped forward, his gaze fixed on Yun Qing, and said, "The sect traitor you mentioned, is he called Shi Feng?"
Hearing his words, Yun Qing's expression froze, and when she looked at Qin Zheng, a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.
"Have you met him?"
Yun Qing asked tentatively.
"Killed."
Qin Zheng nodded and replied calmly.
Yun Qing's expression froze, and she quickly changed her demeanor, smiling gracefully, "In that case, since the traitor is dead, my mission is complete."
"Let me go, and consider it as if we never met."
Before she could finish, Qin Zheng interrupted, "I know all that I need to know. If you continue to lie, I won't have time to waste words with you."
"You should recognize your current situation, Yun Qing?"
Hearing Qin Zheng address her as 'Yun Qing', her spirit sank to the depths of despair.
"I"
She feigned composure, intending to prolong the conversation.
But when she met Qin Zheng's gaze, her heart skipped a beat, and she fell silent.
"What do you want to know?"
Qin Zheng asked the crucial question.
Regarding the information Yun Qing had just provided, he wasn't sure of its truthfulness and had merely probed her.
To his surprise, she had spoken falsehoods.
After he spoke, Yun Qing, no longer wasting time, directly responded, "In the Qionglae Realm, a Great Demon is about to attain the Great Dharmaraja."
"We must unseal a Demon Race Great Dharmaraja to balance the power, or the Qionglae Realm will be completely lost."
A brief silence filled the next few breaths.
In this moment, whether it was Qin Zheng or Wu Qingping, they both sensed the overwhelming destiny about to descend upon this land!
Great Dharmaraja level!
They had just stepped into the Taiyi threshold, and now a Great Dharmaraja was about to appear in the Demon Realm!
At this instant, Qin Zheng recalled Mo Xun's words.
The Demon Race's destiny was soaring, while the Human Race's destiny was like a candle in the rain.
"In the Qionglae Realm, are there any Human Powerhouses independent of the Demon Race?"
Qin Zheng asked again.
A hint of anger flashed across Yun Qing's face, but she forced herself to answer, "Yes, but they've been killed off to near extinction."
Qin Zheng turned to look at Wu Qingping.
The figure in blue robes slowly shook his head.
Qin Zheng then shifted his gaze back to Yun Qing and calmly said, "Give me one reason not to kill you."
A glimmer of hope appeared on Yun Qing's face.
Qin Zheng nodded slightly.
Though he wanted to slay the Demon slave before him and claim the eleven strands of Primordial Merit, he knew nothing about the Qionglae Realm and was unaware of the Demon Realm's impending strength.
If he were to rashly kill her, the opportunity to gather information would be lost.
So, Qin Zheng waved his hand, and five crimson sword auras burst forth, instantly entering Yun Qing's body, hiding in her limbs and heart.
Should she show any disobedience, these five sword auras would instantly annihilate her into ashes!
After this, ignoring Yun Qing's pale face, she turned to Wu Qingping and said, "I've gained some insights from this battle. I'll go into seclusion for a while."
Wu Qingping smiled and said, "I'll take care of her for now."
Qin Zheng didn't hesitate. In an instant, he stepped away, leaving the grand hall.
At the same time, outside the Human Palace.
Qin Zheng stood in the void, observing this palace that resembled the Jade Purity Palace, as if imprinting its image in his mind.
After a few breaths, he finally turned and left.
With a single step, he traversed a thousand miles.
Town Ning, City Lord's Mansion.
Qin Zheng's figure stepped out of the void and entered the familiar cultivation chamber.
Without any delay, he sat cross-legged, his gaze turning inward to his heart sea, focusing on the virtue scroll.
Qin Zheng
Lifespan: 700,000 years
Cultivation Technique: Jade Purity Scripture
Merit: Great Dao Tree (Young), Holy Trinity Ruyi
Innate Merit: 49 Strands
Posterior Merit: 756,734,425.756 Pounds
Current Item: Spiritual Secret Realm, Consume 50,000,000 Pounds of Merit to Enter Again?
49 Strands of Innate Merit!
The Six-Winged Great Demon was worth ten strands of Innate Merit!
Qin Zheng's mind registered this thought.
In the next instant, his heart moved, and he silently recited, "Consume one strand of Innate Merit, enhance the Great Dao Tree!"
With these 49 strands of Innate Merit, I must attain Taiyi this time!
Om!
Above the heart sea, the virtue scroll trembled.
Then, as before, a strand of golden light emerged from the virtue scroll, an indescribable Primordial Merit.
Whoosh!
The Great Dao Tree swayed wildly, as if celebrating the arrival of the Innate Merit.
As the Great Dao Tree was nourished by the Innate Merit, it began to grow again, emitting a profound aura of the Dao.
The Great Dao Fruit also awakened from its slumber, undergoing a transformation.
The Innate Merit was quickly depleted.
But without pause, another strand of Innate Merit descended.
With each infusion of Innate Merit, the Great Dao Tree swayed vigorously, its height gradually reaching thirty-five zhang.
Qin Zheng was fully focused, observing the metamorphosis of the Great Dao Tree like a divine entity.
Boom!
When the tenth strand of Innate Merit was exhausted, a powerful tremor shook the Inner World.
At this moment, the Great Dao Tree finally reached a height of thirty-five zhang.
Qin Zheng's mind remained focused, without a moment's relaxation, as he continued to consume the Innate Merit.
Thirty-six, the number of Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches!
If his guess was correct, the moment the Great Dao Tree grew to thirty-six zhang, it would be the time for his Supreme Ethereal (Taiyi) ascension!
Strands of Innate Merit continued to descend.
The Great Dao Fruit also underwent a transformation.
Like before, it emitted a rich aura of the Dao, and the fruit gradually became translucent, revealing the Dao Palace within.
This time, it was even clearer.
Qin Zheng vaguely sensed a familiar feeling from the Dao Palace.
It was a Dao Palace he had seen before!
A thought flashed through his mind.
Vibrant!
The Great Dao Fruit suddenly emitted a humming sound, followed by ripples of visible light.
Boom!
The Inner World shook violently.
At that instant, the Great Dao Tree transformed into a gaping hole, rapidly absorbing the strands of Innate Merit.
Unlike before, each strand of Innate Merit was instantly absorbed as it merged with the tree, causing it to grow.
Qin Zheng's accumulated Innate Merit was rapidly depleting.
Eleven strands... twelve strands... thirteen strands...
Twenty-one strands... twenty-two strands... twenty-three strands...
Upon the infusion of the thirtieth strand of Innate Merit, the Great Dao Tree grew to thirty-six zhang!
Vibrant!
The Great Dao Tree burst forth with an unprecedented radiant light!
Dong! Dong! Dong!
With each reverberation, Qin Zheng felt his physical body and divine soul undergo a purification and elevation.
At this moment, the Great Dao Fruit detached from the tree and slowly ascended to the highest point of the Inner World.
The Dao Palace within the Great Dao Fruit expanded infinitely, as if struggling to break free from its confines.
Yet, it seemed to fall just short, unable to break through.
Witnessing this, Qin Zheng seemed to understand intuitively, and he immediately manipulated the Virtue Scroll, consuming the Innate Merit.
However, instead of merging with the Great Dao Tree, the thick strands of Innate Merit merged directly with the Great Dao Fruit.
Or, more precisely, they merged with the Dao Palace within the fruit!
One strand... two strands... three strands...
Vibrant!
As the Innate Merit was infused, the Dao Palace radiated an incredibly brilliant light.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
The bell-like sound of the Dao echoed once more.
Under the dazzling light of the Dao Palace, the Great Dao Fruit slowly dissolved, revealing the Dao Palace within!
Instantly,
Thick strands of chaotic primordial energy emerged from the void, enveloping the Dao Palace, making it even more enigmatic.
"The Dao that can be spoken is not the eternal Dao."
The Dao Scripture of Purity resonated once more within the Inner World.
At that moment, above the Heart Sea, the Jade Severing Sword Intent, carrying the severed finger, descended from the Heart Sea into the Dao Palace.
Boom!
As if a powerful suppression force had emerged, the aura emanating from the Dao Palace became even more overwhelming and fierce!
Vaguely, a terrifying sword intent also emanated from it.
Qin Zheng silently observed this scene.
The next moment!
Boom!
An unprecedented feedback force surged from within the Dao Palace, instantly merging with Qin Zheng's divine soul and physical body.
Under this power, his physical body and divine soul were propelled, undergoing a transformation towards a higher realm.
Meanwhile, in the outer world, high in the sky—
Dong! Dong! Dong!
Ancient bells, seemingly from nowhere, rang out across the heavens, echoing in the ears of all living beings.
Simultaneously, a Dao Palace slowly materialized.
This Dao Palace also appeared in countless fragmented realms of the Qionglae Grand Realm!
Announcing to countless beings—
The Spirit Ruins Realm's Human Race!
Has gained another Supreme Ethereal (Taiyi) cultivator!
