Weng Jiu couldn’t help but mutter, “And here I thought that guy was tough.”
Reading between the lines, he was saying, “That’s all you’ve got?”
The Xia Emperor, Wen Xinzhao, and the others were a bit stunned too.
Earlier, they’d thought that since Pu Surong came here with such confidence, she must have invited an incredible, terrifying existence.
Who’d have thought that so soon after the battle began, Su Yi would overpower his opponent’s defenses without even using his Natal Spirit Treasure?
The disparity was enormous.
Indescribable shame and anger rose in Pu Surong, A’Leng, and Pu Huai’s hearts.
They hadn’t anticipated this either!
Both the Moon Wheel Soul-Suppressing Incantation and the Wondrous Flower Soul-Seizing Art were core legacies of the Purple Moon Foxes.?Especially the Wondrous Flower Soul-Seizing Art. It was the legacy upon which they’d established themselves in the Bright Sky Realm.
This secret art was supposed to be effective on everyone beneath the Imperial Realm!
That was why the cultivators of the Bright Sky Realm dreaded nothing more than encountering a Purple Moon Fox expert proficient in this secret art.
Who’d have thought that a Spiritual Manifestation Realm youth like Su Yi would be completely immune?
This was simply unbelievable!
Boom!
Beneath the dome of heaven, Pu Hongqian’s startled, enraged cries had yet to finish echoing through the air when Su Yi attacked once more.
His robes fluttered around him as he walked through the air, quick as the wind. His tall figure seemed utterly forceful and tyrannical. Even watching from a distance, it was enough to make one’s heart tremble.
Pu Hongqian had obviously realized the implications. Abilities that targeted the soul were completely useless against Su Yi.
However…
The Purple Moon Foxes’ strongest abilities all focused on the mind and soul; they were the foundation of the entire clan.
If he couldn’t use them, he’d be pitting his weakest abilities against his foe’s strongest. He’d be casting aside his greatest strength!
Pu Hongqian was a Spiritual Revolution cultivator long accustomed to the battlefield, but he felt overwhelmed, helpless, and ashamed.
Boom!
Su Yi threw yet another punch.
The terrifying fist imprint shone with the terrifying luster of his Dao Intent. The skies boomed beneath its pressure, and the clouds dispersed on all sides.
Pu Hongqian had no time to think. All he could do was meet it head-on.
Bang!
A moment later, he was sent flying. His gaunt frame was like a sandbag, and his flesh was in tatters. Fresh blood scattered.
He looked miserable and unsightly.
However, he was, after all, a Spiritual Revolution cultivator. His wounds might have looked severe, but in truth, they were superficial flesh wounds. His cultivation base was fully in place.
When he saw Su Yi attack once more, Pu Hongqian cast aside his reservations and shouted, “Do you really think I’m helpless against you?”
His voice shook the skies.
As his voice rang out, his hands rapidly formed seals.
Weng!!
Amidst strange and inscrutable energy fluctuations, intricate golden Dao Marks appeared on the surface of the enormous yellow-skinned gourd, like contorting, overlapping vines bursting with dazzling light.
A terrifying energy fluctuation permeated the air around the gourd.
Heaven and earth trembled.
The power of the Nine Tripod Suppression Barrier Formation covering the city seemed to sense the danger, and it circulated with a boom, producing undulations of restrictive power.
“What kind of treasure is that?” The onlookers’ expressions shifted.
The enormous yellow gourd emanated a suffocating, terrifying pressure. A chill coursed through their entire bodies, and they felt as if they’d been plunged into an icy abyss.
“A Xiantian Spirit Treasure!” The old blind man’s expression shifted.
All Spirit-Dao level treasures were known as Spirit Treasures.
Spirit Treasures were divided into three types.
There were ordinary Spirit Treasures, which were engraved with Dao Markings.
Then there were Natal Spirit Treasures, which cultivators nourished within their Grand Dao Spirit Palaces. They were effectively part of their owners’ bodies.
The third and final type was the rarest of all: Xiantian Spirit Treasures!
Such treasures were born of heaven and nourished by the earth. They grew in spiritual energy, absorbing and condensing the power of the Grand Dao. Without exception, they had mighty and unfathomable abilities.
Were an Imperial expert to further temper such treasures, they would become far stronger. They were far beyond typical Spirit Treasures!
Pu Hongqian’s enormous yellow-skinned gourd was a true Xiantian Spirit Treasure. Furthermore, its aura was terrifying beyond imagination!
“I wouldn’t have thought he’d force Elder Qian to use the Baleful Metal Gourd…” A’Leng said with a conflicted look on his face.
The Baleful Metal Gourd!
This was one of the Purple Moon Foxes’ ancestral Xiantian Spirit Treasures. It grew on a magical gourd vine. It took three thousand years to grow leaves, another three thousand years to flower, and another three thousand to bear fruit.
The gourds were only ready after nine thousand years of growth.
Generations of Purple Moon Foxes had refined the baleful Xiantian metal energy inside. Its power was far greater than in the past!
“It’s time to end this,” murmured Pu Surong.
Meanwhile—
Su Yi lowered his fist and stood in the air, a strange look in his eyes. This was indeed one of the Xiantian Five Evils Gourds, the Baleful Metal Gourd.
Xiantian Five Evils Gourds grew on five types of elemental Xiantian Spirit Vines. They came in five varieties: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Each type absorbed the baleful energies of a single element.
Systems of appraising typical Spirit Treasures were insufficient to appraise Xiantian Spirit Treasures like this. They were divine objects, the type that could only be happened upon by chance!
In his past life, Su Yi had once gathered three Xiantian Five Evils Gourds: a Baleful Wood Gourd, a Baleful Fire Gourd, and a Baleful Earth Gourd.
He was only missing the Baleful Metal and Baleful Water Gourds.
Even after stepping into the Imperial Realm, he found this an awful pity.
Who’d have thought that he’d find the missing Baleful Metal Gourd today, in the hands of a Purple Moon Fox expert?
“Suppress!”
All of this took some time to describe, but it happened quickly. As Pu Hongqian bellowed, the Baleful Metal Gourd suddenly let out a ferocious, rumbling howl.
Glittering metallic baleful mists shot out of its interior, like fine flecks of divine gold. They were dazzlingly bright.
This was xiantian baleful metal qi!
Its power was full of a sharp, terrifying, murderous aura. Even a wisp of it could cleave through a mountain!
When refining flying swords, even a wisp of xiantian baleful metal qi could increase their quality to a whole new level.
Whoosh~
Misty baleful metal energy surged, like a glittering, metallic bundle of cloud. The mists suddenly gathered, forming a hundred-foot glittering metal sword.
When the sword descended, it was like a metal waterfall pouring down from the heavens. The landscape dimmed, and heaven and earth shook as if unable to bear that terrifying destructive aura.
The onlookers felt a prickling pain in their eyes, and their hearts and minds were ill at ease.
Even Pu Surong and her allies instinctively squinted. Their hearts shook.
When they left for the Azure Continent, they were utterly confident that so long as the Xia Emperor agreed to their conditions, they could help him neutralize the threat the ancient factions presented. Why? Because they had Pu Hongqian and the Baleful Metal Gourd!
Yet now, Pu Hongqian was using this treasure to suppress Su Yi!
Boom!
Heaven and earth trembled, and the power of the Nine Tripod Suppression Barrier Formation surged violently, as if unable to take it.
However, Su Yi merely laughed.
Were this some other Xiantian Spirit Treasure, it would have taken time and effort to counter.
But against a Baleful Metal Gourd? There was no need for that!
He had experience subduing Baleful Wood, Fire, and Earth Gourds; that was more than enough to handle this.
It’s like… like I leaned back to take a nap, only for someone to slide a pillow behind my head…?Su Yi thought to himself.
He suddenly stretched out his right hand, and his fingers flew through the air as if he were strumming a zither, outlining something at top speeds. Streaks of Genesis Dao Intent surged through the sky, like layers of blooming flowers.
In the blink of an eye, they condensed layer after layer of seals.
The Grand Dao Treasure-Refining Incantation!
This was a method specifically intended to subdue treasures. It wasn’t all that strong on its own.
But with the support of Genesis Dao Intent, it was more than enough to subdue the Baleful Metal Gourd.
Boom!
The hundred-foot golden Dao Sword descended, only for something to block it when it was just three feet away from Su Yi.
That was a sealing power, which shattered on impact, forming a net-like power that bound the golden sword.
Immediately afterward, a rapid-fire series of explosions reverberated throughout the sky.
The layered seals exploded, forming layers of power that attached themselves to the golden Dao Sword, wrapping around it like ropes.
After cleaving through the last layer, none of the metal Dao Sword’s power remained, and it couldn’t proceed even an inch further.
It was then that Su Yi reached out and tapped it.
Bang!
The hundred-foot golden Dao Sword transformed into misty baleful metal energy, which Su Yi gathered in his palm.
“This…” The distant Pu Hongqian’s eyes widened. He couldn’t help but shout, “How is that possible!?”
Pu Surong and the others saw this at the same time. They looked as if they’d seen a ghost; they almost dared not believe their eyes.
How terrifyingly strong was the Baleful Metal Gourd? How could Su Yi have neutralized it with such ease?
Although they didn’t know it, Su Yi’s Mysterious Truths of Genesis were imbued with the power of the five elements, and he’d subdued other Xiantian Five Evils Gourds before. Of course he knew how to neutralize their power!
“Continue.” Su Yi smiled.
At that moment, Pu Hongqian detected an obvious trace of… eagerness! contemporary romance
What does that little shit take the ancestral treasure of the Purple Moon Foxes for?
Prey? A fatty piece of meat?
Pu Hongqian’s old face was ashen with indignation and fury.
“I’ll be interested to see just how you block this!” Pu Hongqian bellowed. His robes billowed around him, and his fingers danced through the air.
Earlier, Pu Hongqian had held back. After all, this wasn’t a life-or-death duel. This was just a battle to determine victory and defeat, as well as whether or not they could leave with Xia Qingyuan.
But now, he was obviously going all out.
Whoosh~~~Whoosh~~~
A rumbling noise spread out like the tide, and swaths of baleful metal energy erupted from the gourd, one after another. All formed dazzling golden Dao Swords, which hovered and flashed in the air. All of them descended upon Su Yi.
Their sharp, forceful aura startled both heaven and earth!
Su Yi responded just as he had before, activating the Grand Dao Treasure-Refining Incantation. His fingers repeatedly formed layers of profound and inscrutable seals, which spread through the sky like ripples.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Layers of seals exploded, and the entire stretch of sky rumbled. Divine radiance churned as if boiling over, illuminating heaven and earth.
Then, beneath the onlookers’ disbelieving gazes, the golden Dao Swords streaked toward Su Yi. Earlier, their terrifying power could have slain the likes of Huan Tianxu and Nie Wanzhi with ease.
But now, the layers of seals had the golden swords skewered, like candied haw on a stick. All of them stopped and hovered in front of Su Yi.
There were lots of them packed together, but none moved.
It was as if heaven and earth had come to a standstill, creating a strange and shocking scene.
