Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme-Chapter 860 - 532: Pros and Cons_2

Chapter 860: Chapter 532: Pros and Cons_2

“…”

All the cultivators spoke, but still had no clue, and could only turn their eyes to Qi Zhengming.

In response, Qi Zhengming was decisive. With a point of his sword finger, the void shattered, a beam of sharpness poured out, and a surge of sword intent soared into the sky, causing the wind and cloud to change colors and the world to look desolate.

“Is this…”

Outside the Southern Sea, all the cultivators’ pupils shrank as they looked toward the boundary ahead, only to see sword intent soaring skyward, with murderous aura shocking the heavens—a beam of sharpness stretched for ten thousand feet, unfolding within the formation as if intending to split the entire sea area.

“Xiaohuang Sword?”

...

“A ninth order Immortal Treasure!”

“Has an Immortal Treasure been employed already?”

Seeing the sword light rising within the array, the robbing cultivators were also greatly shocked.

The Ten Great Holy Lands of the Northern Domain, with their long heritage and profound potential, each had an Immortal Treasure anchoring its fortune.

Although these Immortal Treasures were relics of predecessors, often damaged, an Immortal Treasure was still an Immortal Treasure. Even if incomplete, it was equivalent to half a True Immortal, enough to anchor the fortune and ensure that the heritage was undying and the line unbroken.

The Ninth Heaven Sword Pavilion was no exception. It housed a broken sword, a ferocious Sword Dao weapon. The Sword Pavilion, with its Sect’s ideas, had re-reforged it, barely repairing the damage to make it a heritage treasure, and had overcome many difficulties with it.

Although it was a treasure of the Sword Pavilion’s heritage, seeing Qi Zhengming so decisive and bringing out the Xiaohuang within moments of entering the array, everyone was still somewhat surprised.

“This array…”

“Is it truly so dangerous?”

“Or is it like a lion fighting a rabbit with all its might?”

“BOOM!!!”

Amidst everyone’s astonishment, sword qi surged, and Xiaohuang stirred, attempting to break through the Southern Sea and activate this treacherous array.

In that moment…

“Idle talk of cultivators in paradise, who claims to forge a sacred embryo on the spiritual platform, but when they face this, they must change their bones, and only then do they realize the left path is unfit to mediate!”

The sound of poetry abruptly rang out, and in the array of the Southern Sea, another sword light blazed forth, grand and brilliant, clashing head-on with the sword of the Ninth Heaven.

“BOOM!!!”

A loud explosion followed, the sword qi generated waves, creating a surge thousands of feet high, impacting the bounds in all directions.

Although the crowd was outside the array, seeing such a scene, they were shocked and hastily focused their eyes to look.

Inside the array of the Southern Sea, there was a scene of destruction, with dismal energy soaring into the sky and darkness piercing the earth, in the midst of which two groups of people stood fiercely opposed.

Qi Zhengming held Xiaohuang, standing resolutely in the front, followed by the thirteen swords of Ninth Heaven, making fourteen Sword Immortals in total.

Like a lion fighting a rabbit, the Ninth Heaven Sword Pavilion had gone all out, and the robbing cultivators had all come to the Southern Sea, hoping to achieve their goal in one fell swoop.

Looking at the opponents, although there was only one person, they were still calm and collected, dressed in white, surpassing snow, with a majestic sword posture, not a True Immortal but more impressive than one.

In the center of the array, the two sides faced each other, their eyes filled with enmity meeting face to face.

“Li! Xuanyuan!”

Beside Qi Zhengming, an elder in black spoke out, each word biting and memorable.

It was Xiao Buping, the old ancestor of the Xiao Family, a Six Calamities Sword Immortal!

His gaze at Xu Yang was filled with hatred, not the slightest bit feigned.

The loss of Xiao Teng and his family of three, plus two Mahayana, to be honest, was not that great, but it had brought a grave sin upon them, costing him and the Xiao Family a heavy price.

Had it not been for his Six Stages of Cultivation, and that among the historical ancestors of the Sword Pavilion, there had been individuals from the Xiao Family who became True Immortals and ascended to the Upper Realm, he would have already been settled by Qi Zhengming.

Even so, being chastised was inevitable, and this time he had to take the lead to show his stance, to be able to redeem his faults with merits.

How could he not harbor hatred?

Faced with Xiao Buping’s hateful gaze, Xu Yang showed no reaction at all, his eyes only on Qi Zhengming: “Daring to storm my Southern Sea with an unsteady foundation?”

“Huh!?”

Qi Zhengming’s gaze sharpened, followed by a cold laugh, “Bluffing, only making yourself a laughingstock!”

With that said, he didn’t care about Xu Yang’s reaction and brandished Xiaohuang with a furious slash.

Confidence!

The confidence of a Ninth Calamity True Immortal!

The power of a True Immortal needed no further words—let alone someone who had just entered the Tribulation Realm, at the first or second stage, even older and stronger individuals like Xiao Buping, who had passed the fifth and sixth stages, were nothing but chickens and dogs in his eyes, not worth a blow.

Not to mention, he also had Xiaohuang in his hands. This heritage Immortal Treasure of the Ninth Heaven Sword Pavilion was equivalent to half a True Immortal. With such a powerful alliance, what right did Li Xuanyuan have to compete with him?

And what of this mysterious Great Array?

Even if it were an Eighth Order Immortal Array, it couldn’t contend with a Nine Tribulations True Immortal wielding an Immortal Treasure.

I already stood on invincible ground; what followed was merely the difference between a complete victory and a modest gain

With that said, what more is there to say?

Kill!!!

Qi Zhengming soared up with the Xiaohuang, the power of the Nine Tribulations, the ability of a True Immortal. With a sword strike, he shocked the heavens and the earth, his unmatched sword light seeming to penetrate the Southern Sea.

“Is this…”

“An Immortal?”

“A True Immortal Being?”

“A True Immortal has come to the Southern Sea!”

“This sword light… Nine Heavens Sword Pavilion?”

Now with one strike, the cultivators of the Southern Sea finally came to their senses, and instantly fear spread in all directions. The situation on Lingbao Island was especially chaotic.

Only Xu Yang remained calm, facing the sharp edge of Xiaohuang. With a casual flick of his sleeve behind him, he surprisingly did not attack or defend.

With neither attack nor defense, only the operation of the formation, the Nine Rites and Three Talents reversed its course. Suddenly, the Nine Halls Eight Trigrams, the Five Elements and Four Laws, the Yin Yang Two Extremes all converged into Chaos Yuan Qi. Everything became an illusion, all laws ceased to exist, instantly swallowing the sharp edge of Xiaohuang.

The Nine Rites and Three Talents Sword Formation?

No, it is the Reverse Nine Rites and Three Talents Sword Formation!

The Xuanyuan Sacred Method, Nine Rites and Three Talents, which can mobilize the force of heaven and earth and the power of the human heart. Heaven and earth become the sword, the human heart becomes the sword, all things become the sword, merging into one with Xuanyuan. Even a True Immortal could be severely injured or even killed.

This is the “direct” use of the Nine Rites and Three Talents Sword Formation, drawing the power of the Nine Rites and Three Talents of heaven, earth and the human heart unto oneself.

But such use requires the genuine Xuanyuan Sword forged by the Heavenly Dao’s merit, a resource Xu Yang does not possess in this world.

Therefore, he could only resort to the opposite method!

All things carry Yin and embrace Yang, there is always the extreme of both positive and negative, positive transforms to negative, and negative to positive.

The Nine Rites and Three Talents, when directly applied, serve to enhance oneself.

But the inverse application…

“Rumble!!!”

The winds surged and thunder roared. Amidst the Chaos Yuan Qi, a vision of thunder appeared, and a force of catastrophe was born, falling upon the bodies of those from the Sword Pavilion, causing everyone to abruptly change color in terror.

“This…”

“How is it possible!?”

Xiao Buping’s pupils shrank, the immortal power within his body boiling like a cauldron, his entire body uncomfortably hot, a sense of great disaster impending as the Tribulations he had forcefully suppressed showed signs of breaking through.

It wasn’t just him; all cultivators from the Sword Pavilion felt likewise.

The group of Calamity Immortals had their immortal power bubbling, the invisible call of the Tribulations emerged, foretelling an imminent catastrophe.

“It’s this formation!”

“Senior Brother Qi!”

Everyone’s expressions changed drastically as they looked up in anger and shock towards Qi Zhengming at the front.

But what they saw was…

“Boom!!!”

The void trembled, sword Qi lingered, Qi Zhengming’s body shook, his face turned ashen, sweat poured down his forehead as though he carried the weight of thousands of mountains and rivers, enduring an unimaginable pressure.

Immense pressure, the crushing pressure of heaven and earth. The repulsion of the world surged in an instant, causing the World-Staying Secret Method, passed down by the ancestors of the Upper Realm, to directly lose its effect. With the world’s repulsion and the earth’s pressure, even the True Immortal’s body could hardly bear it.

“How could this be!”

“This formation…!”

Amidst the overwhelming pressure, Qi Zhengming clenched his teeth, forcibly spurred his immortal power, and drove the Xiaohuang to strike at his enemy once more.

As a Nine Tribulations True Immortal, he was naturally repelled by heaven and earth. He relied entirely on the Sect’s inheritance of the World-Staying Secret Method to cling forcefully to the mortal realm.

But somehow the opponent had employed a method that greatly increased the world’s repelling force. It surged violently, overwhelming the World-Staying Secret Method, which failed to dissipate it. Now the entire world was rejecting him, forcing him to ascend.

But how could he simply ascend, leaving such a formidable enemy in the Lower Realm to ravage his Sect?
