Chapter 297 - 165: Holy Origin Secret Realm, Tongxuan Contention
"This... This!!" Bai Buran’s pupils contracted, his face filled with an unprecedented gravity. As expected of the Celestial Refining Demon Sect, a terrifying expert at the Tongxuan Realm Middle Stage. This attack... it was as if he was locked in place by the world’s very essence, unable to even traverse space.
’Damn it, am I really going to die here?!’
’This has to be a joke! The Vacuum Homeland, a paradise of rebirth, is waiting for me to forge it! How can I just fall in a place like this?!’ High in the void, Bai Buran watched as an incomparably massive finger, covered in profound and cryptic Inscriptions, descended from the heavens to crush him. It radiated a terrifyingly peerless aura, spanning the gap between heaven and earth.
A resolute aura erupted in his eyes, like dark clouds obscuring the daylight, revealing an unprecedented determination.
Just as he was about to unleash some kind of Forbidden Technique, a vast and powerful voice suddenly echoed between heaven and earth.
"Feng Xiu, you’ve crossed the line!"
A great, radiant sun suddenly rose in the void, emitting boundless light. Terrifying flames radiated for a thousand miles in every direction, turning the surroundings into an Endless Fire Domain. It was like a worldly furnace, refining all things, incinerating everything, and burning even nothingness to ash!
Then, a powerfully built, stern-faced, middle-aged man in a crimson battle robe slowly stepped out from the center of that radiant sun.
The moment Qin Tianyang raised his hand, he slightly curled his fingers and commanded the radiant sun. It seared through the firmament, incinerating everything, and hurtled overwhelmingly toward that dark, colossal finger that spanned the heavens!!
RUMBLE! RUMBLE!
The instant that terrifying, radiant sun touched the dark, colossal finger, a world-shaking explosion erupted. Huge swathes of space for a hundred miles around collapsed and shattered. The terrifying force was like two planets colliding—mountains and rivers were destroyed, the void was annihilated, and the Great Dao itself was ground to dust!!
The radiant flames and dark light emanating from the clash of the giant sun and the dark finger illuminated every inch of the world!!
...
「On the other side.」
The sky was a pristine, clear blue.
White clouds drifted by.
Gu Yun’s figure was like lightning. Riding a bolt of light, he tore through space, using Instantaneous Flash to cross hundreds of miles.
Suddenly, Gu Yun’s brow furrowed. He came to an abrupt halt, his robes fluttering and his hair whipping wildly in the air.
"Silent Extinction Thunder Gaze, activate!"
Wisps of Thunder Arcs first appeared in Gu Yun’s eyes, then a torrent of immense Thunder surged forth. It was as if his eyes contained a sea of lightning—deep, terrifying, and seemingly able to penetrate all things.
His gaze then pierced through thousands of miles of space, where he saw an incredibly resilient, pale-gold spatial vortex.
He saw several experts suspended in the air. Among them, two were clashing with terrifyingly peerless attacks, the force of which could destroy worlds and annihilate everything!
’Four Tongxuan cultivators. Two of them have exceptionally powerful auras. They’re probably not just in the Early Stage. Getting involved won’t be easy.’
’I’m weighing the pros and cons... I have a feeling that if I succeed here, I’ll ascend to the Tongxuan Realm!’
’Besides, with my Great Dream Star Soul Refining Technique, I’m confident I can defeat an ordinary Tongxuan Early Stage cultivator.’
’And if I really do break through to the Tongxuan Realm, I’m confident I can suppress any enemy who dares to challenge me!’
’Dammit. Fortune favors the bold.’
’Screw it, let’s do it!’
With his mind made up, a look of rock-solid determination filled Gu Yun’s eyes.
He stomped a foot on the air, sending out ripples like those on water. Just as he was about to depart, a clear voice, seemingly imbued with a heavenly rhythm, called out from behind him.
"Friend, please wait!"
