The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2128: Forced to Break Through

Jing Yan may withstand the continuous attacks from Zu Ming and others, but that doesn’t mean he can withstand the attacks from Ji Bian. He may only need to strike a few times to easily kill Jing Yan.

Although the Body Refinement Technique, Virtualization Technique, and Divine Soul Attack Technique are indeed powerful, the power of these spells has its limits. When the limit is breached, it becomes very easy to kill Jing Yan.

”You may give it a try!” Jing Yan sneered and said.

”Mr. Ji Bian, this child is so arrogant in front of you, he should be torn into pieces.” Lord Zu Ming gritted his teeth and said.

Among his Nether Sky Realm guests, those who died at Jing Yan’s hands, including the first two, totaled six. Such a loss has never happened since he established the Zu Family Territory.

He wished to kill Jing Yan immediately. Was it easy to train his top forces? This cost him one-fifth of them in an instant! How many years and resources would it take to recover?

But to kill Jing Yan, it still requires the Immortal Rhythmic Strong People, Mr. Ji Bian, to strike.

”Let me see how many moves you can endure in my hands!” Ji Bian’s body trembled slightly as a surge of divine power rippled out.

Then he leaned slightly forward as a mass of black cyan light halo condensed. The black cyan halo emanated terrifying power fluctuations, filled with intense murderous and deadly energy.

This is a spell related to Destruction Taoist Skill.

Staring at the black cyan light orb, Jing Yan’s gaze was fixed, his whole body’s divine power boiling.

”Ji Bian has struck!”

”Immortal Rhythm Netherworld Realm is attacking a Wanwu Realm Practitioner.”

”This cultivator called Jing Yan is probably going to die here!”

Within the lord mansions in the main cities, similar voices continue to spread. Most people are surprised by Ji Bian’s appearance in Divine Martial City. Of course, some foresaw Ji Bian’s arrival, like Chunyu Qing, the lord of the Chunyu Family in Radiant City. They had long guessed Ji Bian to be the manipulator behind Lord Zu Ming.

Around Divine Martial City, several Immortal Rhythm Level Netherworld Realm cultivators are now concealed. These Immortal Realm individuals might have initially only slightly noted the war happening in Divine Martial City, but as the battle progresses, their interest grows. They couldn’t have imagined a Wanwu Realm Practitioner emerging from nowhere could block Lord Zu Ming of the Zu Family Territory and a group of powerful Nether Sky Realm cultivators.

Thus, these Immortal Rhythmic Strong People quietly came near Divine Martial City, concerned about the outcome of this battle.

Wuxia Heavenly Monarch, seeing Ji Bian, also had a cold gleam in her purple beautiful eyes, but she did not immediately appear, continuing to observe while concealed.

”Die!” Ji Bian softly shouted.

The black cyan light orb carried overwhelming destructive force towards Jing Yan.

”Boom!”

Following a loud noise, Jing Yan’s body flew backward like a meteor.

Even the combination of Virtualization Technique and Ancient Tree Inheritance cannot block the attack of the Immortal Rhythmic Strong People, Ji Bian. Still, Jing Yan’s Seven Luminaries Technique was employed, offsetting part of the black cyan light orb’s power.

”Cough!” Jing Yan’s lips oozed with a trace of blood, gently coughing in the depths of the void.

”Still... unable to block the Immortal Rhythmic Strong People!” Jing Yan said with an indifferent voice: ”The Wanwu Realm is too low-ranked!”

As this voice spread out, Jing Yan’s figure emerged from the depths of the void once again.

”Tsk tsk, such strong defense, truly enviable, isn’t it? I, Ji Bian, have been cultivating for billions of years, killed countless cultivators. A Wanwu Realm Practitioner can withstand my one strike, this is a first!”

”However, that was just the first move, and I only used half of my power. Kid, let’s see if you can withstand my second strike!” Ji Bian’s narrowed eyes grew more excited.

The stronger Jing Yan’s defense, the happier Ji Bian becomes, for it signifies the virtualization technique’s defense is indeed incredibly strong.

”Jing Yan won’t be able to block Ji Bian’s second attack.”

”After all, Wanwu Realm is still Wanwu Realm!”

”If he were in the Nether Sky Realm, perhaps he could save his life. Alas, there’s no such ’if,’ he’s merely in the Wanwu Realm.”

”Such talent, unexpectedly about to die here, at the hands of Ji Bian, that star of misfortune.”

”Sigh, hasn’t Wuxia Heavenly Monarch noticed what’s going on here? If she noticed, would Wuxia Heavenly Monarch intervene? Such a genius, a Wanwu Realm practitioner like this, wouldn’t he be worth Wuxia Heavenly Monarch’s personal rescue?”

Some indeed feel sorry for Jing Yan, hoping Wuxia Heavenly Monarch might intervene to save him.

”Boom!”

At this moment, Jing Yan’s figure explosively released a divine power ripple several times stronger than before.

This time, the divine power ripple carried the aura of the Nether Sky Realm.

From the beginning to now, the realm Jing Yan displayed was undoubtedly the Wanwu Realm. However, at this moment, his body exuded an aura of the Nether Sky Realm. Moreover, this aura rapidly climbs.

Jing Yan has broken through!

Jing Yan could have broken into the Nether Sky Realm long ago; he always suppressed his realm, partly to widen his cultivation path, partly to wait and see if he could wait for the Yellow Spring Cave to open. Lord Ying Zhu told him, entering the Yellow Spring Cave required cultivators below the Nether Sky Realm. Reaching the Nether Sky Realm means being unable to enter.

If not for Ji Bian’s appearance, Jing Yan indeed didn’t want to step into the Nether Sky Realm now. But now, he can’t wait any longer. Relying on Wanwu Realm’s level can’t stop Ji Bian. Jing Yan has only one choice, which is to break through to the Nether Sky Realm level. Regarding Divine Soul Attack, to Ji Bian at Immortal Rhythm’s level, Jing Yan’s Divine Soul Wind Blade would have no effect.

”What?” Ji Bian froze.

Lord Zu Ming and others were all dumbfounded. They were not unfamiliar with the change in Jing Yan’s aura; almost instantly, they knew Jing Yan had broken through the realm from the Wanwu Realm to the Nether Sky Realm level.

But...

Wasn’t breaking into the Nether Sky Realm much easier said than done?

Lord Ying Zhu and others had their eyes wide open, dumbfounded as they watched Jing Yan.

”Nether Sky Realm! He truly broke through to the Nether Sky Realm!” exclaimed a Nether Sky Realm guest under Lord Ying Zhu.

”This...”

”When I first met Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, he was just in the Early Stage of the All Things Realm. I heard Ying Zuo say, when he befriended Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, Fellow Daoist Jing Yan was only in the Taoist Realm. It was only after becoming his guest that Fellow Daoist Jing Yan entered the All Things Realm!” whispered Lord Ying Zhu.

”Considering the time, it seems only decades have passed? From the Taoist Realm to the Nether Sky Realm?” Lord Ying Zhu was somewhat disoriented.
