Chapter 206: Slaying The Five Realms Once More
Ning Qi remained calm and composed, simply watching the scene before him quietly, as if what he had just crushed was not a Fourth Realm Martial Saint, but an ant.
This was naturally within his expectations.
Before stepping into the Martial Saint Realm, he could only rely on Martial Saint Secret Treasures to fight enemies, and the gap couldn’t be widened. Now that he had stepped into the Martial Saint Realm, the gap naturally revealed itself. With Ning Qi’s foundation, it would be a problem if he couldn’t do it this easily.
He felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.
Back when he was in the Black Sand Sea, the Chiyang Martial Saint had insulted his master, and he had no ability to suppress and kill him on the spot, so he could only collect some interest first. Now that the Chiyang Martial Saint had delivered himself to his door, he naturally wouldn’t hold back.
Boom!
A Martial Saint fell, and heaven and earth rumbled.
Blood rain sprinkled down slowly, with each drop of spiritual blood containing powerful power.
The atmosphere fell into stagnation.
The three Martial Saints—Mad Thunder Martial Saint and the others—who had been watching intently were all stunned. They subconsciously rubbed their eyes, their pupils suddenly contracting sharply, and massive waves surged in their hearts.
They looked at the scene before them in disbelief.
They had originally thought it would be a dragon-tiger battle, and perhaps they could fish in troubled waters.
But now, what did they see?
The Heavenly Sword Martial Saint crushed the Chiyang Martial Saint with one grip.
Just like crushing a chick.
If not for the rumbling of heaven and earth and the Martial Saint Blood Rain right before their eyes, they would truly think it was an illusion. But the fact was right there, undeniable. Mad Thunder Martial Saint let out a long hiss in his heart, filled with fear and relief.
So close.
Just a little bit more.
And it would have been him crushed.
“Brother Chiyang, you’re a good man. From now on, this little brother will surely offer incense and worship for you regularly.”
He secretly felt lucky. If the Chiyang Martial Saint hadn’t rushed out first, it would have been him charging up now. As he looked at the young Daoist again, he felt that no matter how he looked, he seemed unfathomably deep and bottomless. Even his previously arrogant and domineering words now carried an extraordinary foundation.
The three Martial Saints were all dumbfounded without exception.
For a moment, they didn’t know what to do. If they didn’t leave, it would seem like they still had ulterior motives, but if they just left without a word, if the Heavenly Sword Martial Saint came knocking later, they would be done for. They could only stay honestly in the distance.
The True Martial Sect congregation was also astonished.
Dragon Mountain Daoist, Luo Wentian, and the others naturally believed in Ning Qi’s strength, but they hadn’t expected Ning Qi to kill the Chiyang Martial Saint so cleanly and decisively. This level of strength was simply heaven-defying.
After the astonishment.
The True Martial Disciples erupted into earth-shattering cheers.
The gazes directed at Ning Qi were all filled with fiery adoration.
Only one person.
After stagnation came extreme hatred and anger.
Purple Moon Martial Saint stared blankly at the scene before her. Those drops of spiritual blood fluttered, still abundant with her big brother Chiyang’s aura, but his appearance and smile had completely vanished.
He had fallen.
She could hardly accept it.
Everything happened too suddenly, too suddenly. She had already prepared in her heart for the Chiyang Martial Saint to be no match and for her to strike at any time, but she never imagined it would be like this—just one strike, and his flesh and blood were exploded.
“Ah!!!”
An angry scream accompanied terrifying spiritual power fluctuations exploding out. Circles of ripples made the void crack like shattered glass, mountains collapsed into dust, especially after seeing Ning Qi collect the Chiyang Martial Saint’s falling blood rain and pour it into the sword embryo. She felt infinite resentment.
“You beast, you’re seeking death!!”
Purple Moon Martial Saint completely lost control.
She and the Chiyang Martial Saint were sworn siblings, with deep affection between them. They had agreed to stay together forever after reuniting in this life, but it had just begun, and now they were separated by life and death.
“I will tear your flesh and blood inch by inch to accompany big brother Chiyang in burial.”
Her body was filled with icy aura, Five Elements Qi flowing around her body. An overwhelmingly tyrannical aura swept through the void, and a bright moon brimming with purple qi manifested behind her. The sash at her waist whipped out, sprinkling beautiful and magnificent purple moonlight.
Mad Thunder Martial Saint felt his scalp tingle. What kind of moonlight was that? It was clearly blades that could slice through flesh and blood. Even though the moonlight wasn’t directed at him, he was still terrified. The Five Elements Qi flowing on it was somewhat frightening.
The gap between Fifth Realm Martial Saints and Fourth Realm Martial Saints was the largest, because the former had achieved Five Elements Perfection. Not only could they freely convert and amplify the five elements mutually, but they could also evolve many powerful methods.
This moonlight was one of them.
It had sharpness surpassing Metal Qi, softness of Water Qi, and the endless vitality of Wood Qi. Most terrifyingly, this moonlight had a dreamy quality, vaguely shifting between illusion and reality.
Ning Qi raised an eyebrow.
“Somewhat interesting.”
After White Mountain Old Daoist reminded him that the Chiyang Martial Saint had a powerful sworn sister, he had been paying attention. Originally, his baseline was breaking through to Third Realm Martial Saint, which should be enough to fight her. Now that he had stepped into Fourth Realm Martial Saint, he was even less afraid.
As for now.
He was probing the mysteries of Five Elements Perfection.
He didn’t know if after Spiritual Energy Revival, the ancient saints had existences more powerful than Fifth Realm Martial Saints, but he figured Fifth Realm Martial Saints were already among the top tier. There would be plenty of dealings with them from now on, and since his next step was to promote to Fifth Realm Martial Saint, learning more in advance was no harm.
Ning Qi stepped forward.
Illusion Breaking Golden Eye had already seen through the reality of the purple moonlight clearly.
His right hand continued to guide the Martial Saint Blood Rain into the sword embryo, making waste into treasure and making the sword embryo more innate.
His left hand lifted and formed a seal.
Surge of spiritual power gathered, fragments of mountains shattered and reassembled into a large seal, ancient and heavy, with a Black Tortoise seated at its top, exuding an aura of suppressing everything.
True Martial Seal.
Divided into True Dragon Seal and Black Tortoise Seal methods.
What Ning Qi was using now was the Black Tortoise Seal.
Boom!
The Black Tortoise Seal suppressed toward the swath of moonlight, locking the entire void. No matter illusion or reality, suppress them all!
The moonlight was like a Heavenly Saber, trying to cleave open the ancient mountain seal.
But it only left deep marks, while pieces of moonlight shattered under the ancient seal’s suppression. The dreamy quality dispersed like bubbles, and the ancient seal pressed forward relentlessly, continuing toward Purple Moon Martial Saint.
Purple Moon Martial Saint’s pupils shrank. No matter how much she hated, she knew this opponent was somewhat terrifying.
Clearly just a Fourth Realm Martial Saint, but that spiritual power was so vast it was unbelievable, with a foundation so thick it was unprecedented in eternity.
So many reincarnated eras, yet she had never heard of this person.
She found it somewhat unbelievable.
“Who exactly are you, and what hatred do you have with me!” Purple Moon Martial Saint felt she might have been set up.
Her purple sash stretched taut, transforming into a divine sword. Sword lights tore through heaven and earth, shattering the ancient seal into pieces. Even so, she was blasted a thousand zhang away, her aura somewhat rapid.
Who was superior was clear at a glance.
Ning Qi was even more calm in his heart.
After a brief clash, he had pretty much figured out her foundation. If it was just this, she wouldn’t be his opponent.
He didn’t speak.
He just glanced at the sword embryo in the sky. After injecting the Chiyang Martial Saint’s flesh and blood, the sword embryo’s origin was clearly more abundant. The flesh and blood of a Fourth Realm Martial Saint was no simple matter; he was somewhat expectant.
Purple Moon Martial Saint’s pupils shrank sharply, and she shouted sternly:
“You had long calculated for this sword embryo to emerge, deliberately luring me and big brother Chiyang here to water the sword embryo with our flesh and blood, forging a demonic sword! With such sinister intent, aren’t you afraid of the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint pursuing it, afraid of being denounced by all saints!”
Any perceptive person could see that Purple Moon Martial Saint was already blustering to hide her fear.
She even brought up the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint.
Ning Qi chuckled speechlessly.
You’re quite imaginative.
“You clearly came seeking revenge yourselves, yet now you say I lured you here. How interesting.” Ning Qi locked his gaze on Purple Moon Martial Saint, making her shiver, “But you did remind me—a Fifth Realm Martial Saint’s flesh and blood should allow this sword embryo to advance further.”
Upon hearing this.
The three Mad Thunder Martial Saints in the distance felt their mouths go dry. Purple Moon Martial Saint’s earlier guess had already made them uneasy, and now with Ning Qi speaking, they only wanted to leave this place of trouble immediately.
But they didn’t dare.
They could only brace themselves and continue watching.
Purple Moon Martial Saint’s pupils shrank sharply too, an ominous premonition surging in her heart. She saw Ning Qi in the distance vanish suddenly.
“Where are you looking.” A faint voice sounded behind her.
A domineering punch tearing through the void was already blasting over.
Purple Moon Martial Saint’s heart pounded wildly. Her sash instantly expanded, wrapping her layer upon layer, but it only blocked part of the punch’s might. With a boom, Purple Moon Martial Saint’s waist bone snapped, and she coughed up blood continuously.
She wanted to counterattack.
But two dragon roars sounded one after another.
Water and fire twin dragons formed a heaven-imprisoning momentum, locking her firmly. This was a move Ning Qi comprehended with the King Yu Bead and Great Sun Compass before stepping into the Martial Saint Realm, allowing water and fire to coexist. Now that Ning Qi had reached the Martial Saint Realm and refined Water Qi and Fire Qi, it was far superior to before.
Purple Moon Martial Saint was greatly shocked. She manifested her signature purple moon, moonlight slashing wildly, but all were melted by water and fire. She gritted her teeth and urged the purple moon to suppress, barely melting part of the dragon bodies. Escaping wasn’t that simple.
But Ning Qi clearly wouldn’t let this opportunity go so easily.
One link after another.
Purple Moon Martial Saint had already fallen into the trap.
The onlookers watched with pounding hearts. It seemed long, but the two clashed very quickly.
Golden light flickered in Ning Qi’s eyes, utterly indifferent. He pointed, and a stunningly brilliant sword qi appeared out of thin air. This was Innate Divine Sword Qi. After stepping into the Martial Saint Realm, its sharpness was even greater than before. As it slashed out now, it tore a several-zhang-wide spatial rift along the way.
If placed before the changes in heaven and earth, it would probably be ten times wider.
The scene was somewhat terrifying.
The several Martial Saints were all terrified.
This sword qi hid in the spatial rift, impossible to lock onto, its speed reaching the extreme.
Purple Moon Martial Saint, struggling desperately against the twin dragon bindings, widened her eyes, then her pupils dilated sharply.
She slowly looked down.
Her heart had unknowingly been pierced by the sword qi, its terrifying sharpness shattering her vitality.
“You… you… exactly who…”
But before she could finish.
The sword qi had already torn her completely apart, turning into blood rain filling the sky.
Boom!
Another Martial Saint fell, heaven and earth rumbling.
A majestic Fifth Realm Martial Saint was similarly suppressed by Ning Qi, and without much effort.
Mad Thunder Martial Saint and the other two were dumbfounded, the scene before them like a dream. When had Fourth Realm Martial Saints been able to kill Fifth Realm Martial Saints so easily? Could it be they had revived in the wrong era?
One must know, those who could reach the levels of Fourth Realm Martial Saint or Fifth Realm Martial Saint—how different could their talent and aptitude be? What they competed in more was foundation.
In the past.
At most, a Fourth Realm Martial Saint could rely on various means to match a Fifth Realm Martial Saint, barely avoiding defeat—that was already a one-of-a-kind prodigy.
Now everything before them was somewhat subversive to their cognition.
Far in the distance.
A scruffy old Daoist was rushing desperately. After handling the opportunity at True Profound Sect, White Mountain Old Daoist hurried over. Hearing the rumbling of a Martial Saint’s fall, his heart trembled involuntarily.
“Young Ning… no way? A prodigy like him shouldn’t have such shallow fortune.”
He had an ominous premonition in his heart—perhaps it was True Martial Mountain’s newly promoted Martial Saint who was killed.
White Mountain Old Daoist flew even faster.
The aura of a Fifth Realm Martial Saint was unmistakable, Five Elements Qi flowing around his body, speed extremely fast.
Soon.
True Martial Mountain was in sight.
He immediately spotted White Cloud Martial Saint, Heize Martial Saint, and Mad Thunder Martial Saint ‘lurking’ in the distance. His eyes narrowed, and he charged toward True Martial Mountain without concealing his aura. He thought True Martial Mountain was under siege, after all, the soaring Treasure Light was even greater than the opportunity at his True Profound Mountain.
Mad Thunder Martial Saint and the other two felt their scalps numb. Another Fifth Realm Martial Saint had arrived, and regret rose in their hearts. They shouldn’t have come to stir this muddy water.
But soon.
White Mountain Old Daoist was stunned.
He happened to see Ning Qi guiding Purple Moon Martial Saint’s blood rain to water the sword embryo.
“Ah?”
The vast power in that spiritual blood startled him. If he sensed correctly, it was probably a Fifth Realm Martial Saint on his level.
Ning Qi turned his head and smiled:
“You came so fast. Have you finished handling things at True Profound Mountain?”
He felt touched in his heart. White Mountain Old Daoist was truly a friend without equal. After reminding him about Purple Moon Martial Saint earlier, he promised to rush over first thing on the day of Spiritual Energy Revival to prevent the Chiyang Martial Saint duo from acting. And now he had indeed come.
White Mountain Old Daoist’s mouth felt dry. He couldn’t help asking:
“This is?”
Ning Qi smiled:
“If I didn’t get it wrong, it should be the Purple Moon Martial Saint you mentioned.”
As the words fell.
White Mountain Old Daoist’s eyes widened suddenly.
Holy mother of…
Did Ning kid really kill Purple Moon Martial Saint?
Doesn’t that mean if he faced Ning Qi, it would be the same end for him?
His mind was a bit dazed.
To the point that he barely heard the latter sentence about ‘Chiyang Martial Saint already put in.’
A moment later.
White Mountain Old Daoist could only smile bitterly:
“You’re truly a prodigy!”
He had rushed over in such a panic, thinking something had happened. Now he realized it wasn’t Ning Qi who got exploded by them—it was the other way around. He had slaughtered the brother-sister pair completely, and without wasting a bit, all put into the sword embryo.
Watching Ning Qi summon lightning to temper the sword embryo.
He felt an indescribable sensation in his heart.
“This guy is indeed different from the crowd.”
