Chapter 192 : Still Have to Risk It All!
Chapter 192: Still Have to Risk It All!
“Buzz!”
Vast immortal light burst forth from Li Yunqing’s hand.
It was as if she held a blazing sun, radiating endless brilliance, pouring into heaven and earth, scorching all things.
Yet it also seemed as if she grasped boundless time itself—resplendent and sacred, pure and immaculate, untouched by dust, cleansing everything in the world.
“Hiss… this is immortal light!”
“Not good!”
Seeing the endless immortal light erupting from Li Yunqing’s hand, dazzling and soul-stirring,
the five people charging toward her—now less than ten zhang away—had their expressions change drastically.
“Retreat! This is an Immortal Technique!”
“A mere Sixth Realm actually mastered an Immortal Technique!”
“How is this possible?”
“Hasn’t the Fallen Immortal Land declined?”
“Where did she obtain the inheritance of an Immortal Technique?”
The five Eighth Realm Kings all cried out in shock, their faces filled with disbelief.
Each of them showed fear, their bodies trembling as endless light burst from within them without restraint.
In that instant, the surrounding space shattered, forming a vast black hole.
The five figures turned without hesitation, fleeing frantically into the distance.
“Boom!”
At this moment, the five Kings unleashed their full strength, stamping the void into massive craters.
Countless footprints made the entire sky seem like shattered glass, collapsing inch by inch.
Spiderweb-like cracks spread in all directions.
Immortal Techniques—the spells of immortals—contained the power formed by the fusion of unmatched laws.
Their might was terrifying.
Several times, even over ten times stronger than divine abilities.
Ordinary people would die upon contact—there was no possibility of resistance.
Within the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, aside from powerful royal clans, great families, or supreme sacred lands,
no one else could even come into contact with Immortal Techniques.
They were the highest inheritances of major forces, the ultimate power ensuring the continuation of families and factions.
For ordinary people, only by stepping into the Ninth Realm and attaining the Dao as a Saint with overwhelming strength might they begin to create their own Immortal Technique.
Even then, the Immortal Techniques created by Ninth Realm Saints were vastly inferior to ancient inheritances.
Immortal Techniques required comprehension of complete laws and their perfect fusion.
The time required was far beyond mere thousands or tens of thousands of years.
“So fast!”
Watching them flee frantically, Li Yunqing remained calm, though her heart tightened slightly.
At that instant, the immortal light in her hand poured into the black hole like rain.
Like a galactic waterfall, a curtain of endless light carrying vast power plunged straight into the black hole.
“Rumble…”
The black hole exploded, and spatial fragments instantly turned to dust, sweeping outward in all directions.
Before the Immortal Technique, even space seemed decayed.
It turned into black ash that billowed like smoke.
When everything settled and space restored itself, everyone widened their eyes, looking at the five Kings.
“Hahaha… I’m fine!”
“I’m fine too!”
The two Eighth Realm Kings who had been at the rear burst into laughter, patting themselves and letting out sighs of relief.
But at this moment, the other three Kings retreated simultaneously, looking at the laughing pair with lingering fear in their eyes.
“You…”
The two Kings turned their heads toward the other three, raising their hands—only to freeze instantly.
They saw that their originally smooth and radiant skin was now full of wrinkles.
Even more terrifying, their flesh was crumbling like sand, falling from their bodies bit by bit.
“This…?”
“What’s happening?”
The two Eighth Realm Kings stared in horror at their hands as they disintegrated like grains of sand.
Then they looked down at their legs—
only to find that their limbs were also collapsing like piles of sand.
“No!”
The two roared, eyes bulging, filled with terror and regret.
They had thought that entering this declining Fallen Immortal Land with their Eighth Realm cultivation would make them invincible—a tremendous opportunity.
If they could find the legendary Immortal’s Divine Treasury, they might obtain Immortal Techniques, step into the Ninth Realm, attain the Dao as Saints, and establish an immortal family or faction.
But now, their hearts were filled with regret and unwillingness.
At this moment, they seemed to understand why such an “opportunity” had fallen upon them.
Clearly, this was not fortune—
but a calamity that left no place for burial.
“No, no, no!”
“I don’t want to die!”
The two supremely powerful Eighth Realm Kings now wept bitterly, panicked and no different from ordinary people facing death.
Or rather, for beings who had lived thousands upon thousands of years, death was even more terrifying.
“Rustle…”
Amid their howls, their bodies rapidly dissolved into dust, scattering into the air.
Like figures made of sand, they completely collapsed.
Even their Primordial Spirits decayed rapidly, dissipating bit by bit like ashes vanishing into nothingness.
“I’m unwilling!”
“I hate this!”
The two Kings roared toward the heavens.
A gentle breeze passed, and their bodies scattered like illusions, leaving not a trace behind.
At this moment, the entire plaza fell into deathly silence.
Only the shocked, rapid breathing of the crowd could be heard.
Two Eighth Realm Kings had just turned into dust before everyone’s eyes.
Their bodies, Primordial Spirits, and all their power had completely decayed—utter annihilation.
The power contained within that immortal light was strange and terrifying, impossible to guard against.
“What kind of power is this?”
“An Immortal Technique? A legendary Immortal Technique?”
“A Path Pioneer actually controls an Immortal Technique!”
Voices of discussion erupted everywhere, and much of the worry on people’s faces vanished.
To ordinary people, controlling an Immortal Technique was like a dimensional crushing force.
Such power was like a true immortal descending—unstoppable.
Even Xiaolan, Ying Qianqian, the Sword God, the Sword Saint, and all those who knew Li Yunqing showed a trace of joy.
With such power, she should be able to protect herself.
“They just… died like that?”
“Even their Primordial Spirits were completely extinguished?”
Watching the process of their deaths, the remaining three Eighth Realm Kings were filled with fear.
If they had failed to escape just now, they too might have died in terror like those two.
“An Immortal Technique that touches time!”
“This power… it might be an Immortal King Technique!”
“Immortal King Technique?”
“A mere Sixth Realm woman actually possesses an unmatched Immortal King Technique!”
“Could it be from the Immortal’s Divine Treasury?”
At this moment, the three Kings looked at Li Yunqing in disbelief.
That was an Immortal King Technique—an unsurpassed Immortal Technique even within the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, nearly invincible.
If not for Li Yunqing’s low cultivation, that single strike might have erased them all instantly.
As for Immortal Emperor Techniques, they were merely legendary.
Whether such techniques even existed in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands remained unknown.
At least, they had never seen one.
“That’s an Immortal King Technique!”
“If we obtain it, we can establish a supreme royal clan!”
“With her Sixth Realm cultivation, the consumption must be enormous!”
At this moment, one of the Kings, appearing as an old man, spoke with deep temptation and greed:
“As long as we join forces, we can exhaust all her power.”
“At that time, even if she possesses an Immortal King Technique, she won’t be able to use it and will be at our mercy!”
“Don’t you want the Immortal King Technique?”
At these words, the fear in the other two’s eyes instantly turned into greed.
Men die for wealth; birds die for food!
All of them had entered the Fallen Immortal Land for the so-called Immortal’s Divine Treasury.
All sought to break into the Ninth Realm and find opportunity.
Who wouldn’t want an Immortal King Technique?
Even the great figures of the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands would likely scramble for it.
“No need to get close—keep distance and attack with divine abilities or weapons!”
“She’s only in the Sixth Realm—how can she match our speed?”
“Once she’s heavily injured and her power exhausted, that will be the best time to capture her!”
“Attack!”
The three reached agreement almost instantly.
Compared to them, a Sixth Realm cultivator was worlds apart in power.
As long as they kept their distance, even facing an Immortal King Technique, they could pierce through space and retreat instantly.
Meanwhile, Li Yunqing could only rely on raw power to pursue them—once overexerted, she would fall into their control.
Even though their divine abilities were suppressed by this world and weaker than usual, they were still far beyond what a mere Sixth Realm could withstand.
“Boom!”
In an instant, the three Kings pierced through the void, widening the distance and taking positions in three directions.
The moment sufficient distance was gained, they simultaneously unleashed their divine abilities.
“Rumble…”
Heaven and earth roared, and the entire world dimmed.
Endless laws intertwined in the void, vibrating violently.
“Buzz!”
In an instant, three enormous artifacts filled the sky.
A thirty-three-layered pagoda stood like a pillar of heaven, radiating endless law-infused light, covering a vast expanse of the sky.
Beside it, a massive round cauldron overshadowed the heavens, pressing the void into collapse.
On the other side, a colossal round shield, heavy as a divine mountain.
“Suppress!”
The three Kings shouted, pressing down with raised hands.
At that instant, the pagoda, cauldron, and shield all descended upon Li Yunqing.
From three directions, they blocked all escape routes, covering the sky.
Before even landing, a terrifying force had already formed.
Li Yunqing, who had been standing in the void, was instantly pressed down by that immense force, crashing straight to the ground.
“Boom!”
The earth trembled as she smashed into it, creating a deep crater.
Spiderweb-like cracks spread rapidly from the impact, covering a hundred zhang in an instant.
Divine artifacts unleashed by three Eighth Realm Kings—
how could Li Yunqing withstand it?
“Pfft!”
Within the crater, Li Yunqing coughed up blood, her entire body covered in droplets of crimson.
Her jade-like skin seemed on the verge of being crushed.
Her purple garments were instantly dyed red.
“Crack!”
Above her head, the starry diagram that had formed a protective barrier shattered instantly.
Facing the joint suppression of three Eighth Realm Kings, even her newly formed accompanying Dao artifact could not endure.
Her neatly arranged hair burst loose, flowing wildly behind her.
Blood stained her pale face.
Even her slender waist was forced to bend.
If not for the Dao aura surrounding her and her various physiques supporting her—
if not for the fact that the three Kings intended to capture rather than kill—
this strike alone might have severely wounded her.
“So strong…”
“This is the power of Eighth Realm Kings?”
Li Yunqing’s heart trembled, her long legs shaking uncontrollably.
At this moment, she clearly understood—
if she could not counterattack forcefully,
under the combined assault and attrition of the three, she would inevitably be defeated, with no chance of survival.
Her expression became unprecedentedly calm.
She raised her hand, wiped the blood from her lips, and clenched her teeth slightly.
“Still have to risk it all!”
