Chapter 195: Sword~~~ Come!
“Rumble…”
The enormous finger cut through the void, as if piercing layer upon layer of space, bringing with it endless thunderous roars.
“This power?”
Sensing that terrifying force descending, the old man’s scalp went numb instantly.
The woman before him truly could not be judged by common sense!
He was just about to dodge when he suddenly realized that the surrounding space seemed frozen.
An invisible force appeared to bind everything.
Even he himself felt suppressed.
“What a terrifying aura—no risks can be taken!”
The old man’s heart pounded wildly as he decisively activated the massive cauldron above his head.
“Buzz!”
The cauldron trembled, releasing boundless light like a star, charging toward the descending finger in the sky.
“Boom!”
At that instant, a deafening explosion echoed through heaven and earth.
Everyone witnessed an unbelievable scene.
The divine cauldron, refined by a King, only lasted a brief moment before that finger—
and then exploded violently.
Countless fragments had just scattered when they were frozen by the power surrounding the finger, turning into dust and falling away.
Meanwhile, the massive finger remained completely unchanged, continuing its rapid descent straight toward the old man.
“How is this possible?”
“This level of power… even an Immortal Technique wouldn’t be stronger than this, would it?”
The old man could not help but cry out in shock, immediately trying to retreat using that brief opening.
But in the next moment, overwhelming pressure descended, pressing him directly onto the ground.
“Bang!”
The old man crashed heavily into the earth, looking up in disbelief.
The gigantic finger had already reached above his head.
Wherever it passed, space shattered rapidly—only to instantly restore itself.
It was as if this single finger carried both infinite creation and destruction.
It also contained a terrifying force of balance that suppressed everything.
He tried to shatter space—
but found that he could not.
“Boom!”
The massive finger descended, giving him no chance to resist, piercing through the void and pressing directly onto him.
“Pfft!”
In that instant, the old man’s body exploded.
He did not even manage a scream—his Primordial Spirit could not manifest before he was reduced to a spray of blood.
Crushed to death by a single finger!
Utter annihilation without the slightest resistance.
Flesh and bones shattered into dust.
“Rumble…”
The massive finger did not stop, continuing downward and striking the ground.
It pierced directly into the earth, leaving behind a bottomless abyss.
“Hiss…”
“This power!”
Everyone who saw this scene was stunned.
Every pair of eyes was filled with disbelief.
The power of that single strike was beyond imagination.
Even compared to the Immortal King Technique Li Yunqing had just used, its presence felt even more overwhelming.
In everyone’s minds appeared the same image—
a single finger descending from the heavens, reducing all things to dust, piercing through the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands.
But in the next moment, everyone snapped back to their senses and erupted into shouts.
“He’s dead!”
“Hahaha… finally dead!”
“We’re saved!”
Cheers resounded across the plaza.
If not for the suppression of the Nine Lands Absolute Domain, everyone would have already leapt up in celebration.
Many looked at Li Yunqing with deep reverence.
“As expected of a Path Pioneer!”
“Slaying an Eighth Realm King with a single move!”
“This is the Path Pioneer of Great Xia!”
Amid the cheers, many gazes filled with heartache fell upon Li Yunqing.
“Miss!”
“Little sister!”
“Yunqing!”
Li Yansong, Li Shuo, Xiaolan, along with Ying Qianqian and Jiang Xiuning—all had reddened eyes.
They looked at the once spotless purple dress, now dyed completely red with blood.
They knew how much Li Yunqing valued cleanliness—how unbearable this must be for her.
From beginning to end, she had faced everything alone.
As her closest family, how could they not feel pain?
“One day, I will stand openly beside her and fight alongside her!”
“This must never happen again!”
“There are indeed things in this world greater than love!”
Jiang Yu, Jiang Jing, and Qin Yu murmured softly, their eyes also reddened.
If they once held certain thoughts in their hearts,
at this moment, watching Li Yunqing fight Kings alone while they could do nothing—
love no longer mattered.
“How fortunate Great Xia is to have a National Preceptor like her!”
Within the crowd, Di Qing murmured, his eyes filled with respect.
Beside him, Bai Yunting, Meng Sanchuan, Chen Mengsheng, and others nodded, full of admiration.
Without Li Yunqing’s resistance, the newly revived Great Xia would have fallen into destruction once again.
Even with the revival of laws and the Great Dao, they would only be lambs awaiting slaughter.
They would never rise again.
“You have comprehended a new finger technique. Please name it!”
Li Yunqing sat half-collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily.
Even with the fusion of her Dao Self, True Self, and Past Self, she no longer had the strength to lift her hand.
This time, she had truly reached the end—her Dao Power, both in her body and inner world, was completely exhausted.
Yet seeing the words appear before her, a faint smile appeared on her face.
“It’s not that I love creating finger techniques…”
“It’s just coincidence!”
Thinking of the Formless Tribulation Finger, Yuan Qing’s figure appeared in her mind, and she could not help but mutter inwardly.
If Sister Yuan Qing found out she had created another powerful finger technique out of nowhere, she would surely say something again.
“Let’s call it Heavenly Fury Finger!”
Li Yunqing murmured inwardly.
Recalling what had just happened, recalling that old man’s words, anger still surged within her.
This finger would remind her—
never to stop, to keep moving forward, until she stood at the peak of the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands.
Until she became invincible.
“Heavenly Fury Finger (Entry 0/10000)”
Just as a smile appeared on her face—
“Boom!”
A sudden thunderous roar echoed through heaven and earth.
Within that roar, three voices like thunder resounded:
“Aren’t you celebrating a bit too early?”
As the voices fell, the void above the plaza suddenly shattered.
Space broke apart, and endless black chaotic currents surged forth instantly.
Wherever they passed, the earth collapsed into dust.
Everyone looked up in terror, only to see a massive black hole appear in midair.
From within it, three figures stepped out slowly, one step at a time.
They were the three Kings who had been trapped by Li Yunqing’s formation using Divine Intent Incarnations.
Now, they had broken the formation, destroyed space, and returned—walking through the black hole and chaotic void currents.
As they stepped forward, the black hole behind them rapidly shrank, restoring space to its normal state.
The three figures stood in the void, releasing the full pressure of Eighth Realm Kings, suppressing everything.
Not a trace of disarray could be seen on them—not even their clothes or hair were disturbed.
Their gazes swept across the entire plaza.
“With merely Sixth Realm strength, you fought and killed six Kings. The new Dao of the Fallen Immortal Land is indeed extraordinary.”
They spoke calmly.
“Did you not notice? If we had died within that formation, the Ten Lands Absolute Domain should have disappeared long ago.”
Hearing their words, everyone felt as if their throats had been seized.
No one could make a sound.
Indeed—they had celebrated too early.
This Nine Lands Absolute Domain was formed by the power of nine Kings.
If all nine died, it would naturally dissipate.
Yet everyone was still suppressed—
why had they celebrated prematurely?
“There are still three Kings…”
Li Yunqing’s brief sense of relief sank instantly to the bottom.
Of course—how could a formation created by Divine Intent Incarnations truly kill three Kings?
Perhaps this had been their scheme all along.
Letting others die, watching from the sidelines, and then appearing at the end to reap everything.
Perhaps that explained why they broke the formation only after all the others had died.
“Tap… tap… tap…”
The three Kings stepped through the void, slowly approaching Li Yunqing, calm and composed.
“Now, what methods do you have left?”
“Or can you still fight us?”
Hearing their voices, Li Yunqing remained silent.
Fight?
Being able to kill those six Kings had already been a miracle.
Now, facing three uninjured Kings with little exhaustion—
even at full strength, she might have struggled.
Now, she barely had the strength to lift a sword.
“Hehehe…”
Seeing her silence, the three Kings chuckled, their gazes sweeping around.
Wherever they looked, everyone lowered their heads deeply.
Three Eighth Realm Kings.
Even if Li Yunqing were at full strength, one mistake would mean death.
“Now, you have two choices!”
“First, bind your hands and come with us.”
“Second, we kill everyone here, cripple you, and take you away.”
“Do not think these choices are the same.”
“We are not that cruel.”
The three Kings exchanged glances and laughed.
“If you choose the first, as long as you bear children for our three families and leave behind the Immortal King Technique inheritance, we will grant you freedom.”
“If you choose the second… then you will have no say in the matter!”
Hearing this, Li Yunqing clenched her fists, her arms trembling.
She didn’t even want marriage—
and they wanted her to bear children?
They might dare to think it—but she would never accept it.
If her Longevity Body were discovered, with her current talent—
she might not even have the chance to resist, becoming nothing more than a breeding tool.
Ten years, a hundred years, ten thousand years, a hundred thousand years, a million years—
endless time bound as a machine to produce offspring.
Her talent and bloodline could sustain a family’s glory for countless ages.
As long as she was exposed and unable to resist, such a fate would be inevitable.
Just imagining it made her want to slaughter everyone who dared covet her.
“You are forcing me into madness!”
Her eyes reddened slightly, killing intent surging within her.
She had been willing to treat the world gently—that was the world’s fortune.
But if she were defiled, she would go completely mad.
She would plunge the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands into despair, into endless darkness—
slaughter all living beings and destroy everything.
“Have you decided?”
“If not, we will decide for you!”
“There should be your loved ones among them, right? Then we’ll start with them—kill them all!”
The three Kings stood in the void, calm and composed, like rulers overseeing everything.
Of course, they preferred her to agree.
After all, bearing children was a woman’s matter.
If she resisted, even pregnancy could be undone.
But if she cooperated willingly—
that was ideal.
Moreover, once she had offspring, she would not easily harm her own flesh and blood.
“Isn’t it just death?”
“Compared to an endless future of bearing children, death is liberation!”
“But even if I die—even if I give everything—I will make you pay!”
As her thoughts surged, a sword cry suddenly rang out from the Sword Pavilion—unnoticed until now—and echoed in her heart.
“How can I just admit defeat like this?”
“I still have endless life to gamble with!”
“I can give everything!”
“Buzz!”
Hearing that sword cry, Li Yunqing gritted her teeth and struggled to her feet.
She raised her head slightly, looking at the three Kings, her gaze as calm as a bottomless abyss.
“If I must choose…”
“Then all of you can go die!”
She raised her right hand toward the Sword Pavilion, grasping at the air as she shouted:
“Sword~~~ Come!”
