Chapter 1786: Chapter 1786: As Difficult as Reaching Heaven!

This fire dragon that suddenly appeared is actually the flame beneath the Dan Shen Sect.

As an alchemy sect, Dan Shen Sect must possess earth flames, which Ye Qiu hadn’t paid attention to or known about initially. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

It was Wu Yaizi who reminded him that Dan Shen Sect possesses earth flames.

After all, Dan Shen Sect used to be the largest sect with many alchemists, and some rookie alchemists hadn’t reached the God Realm and couldn’t generate flames to refine pills, making the help of earth flames necessary. Like when Ye Qiu first entered the alchemy dao, he refined pills in the cave at the back mountain of the Jin Clan using its earth flame.

When Ye Qiu was devising the Heaven and Earth Eight Trigrams Array, he had a sudden inspiration: perhaps he could incorporate the earth flame into it as a powerful attack, and thus he began to experiment.

Now, the earth flame is named Hellfire by Ye Qiu, coming from the underground, appearing for the first time in the form of a formation attack.

The massive fire dragon swallowed the Thousand Illusion Sage in an instant, and Ye Qiu stared intently for a long while.

Suddenly, the fire dragon shook its body, and then a figure flew out from within it.

Thousand Illusion Sage!

Ye Qiu stared intently at the opponent; Hellfire couldn’t harm the sage.

Thousand Illusion Sage was somewhat annoyed; was the flame used for alchemy really trying to harm him?

"Extinguish!"

Thousand Illusion Sage raised his hand and clawed at the fire dragon.

The fire dragon, sensing danger, wanted to dive back into the earth, but an invisible force bound it, pulling it relentlessly, and soon it fell into the hands of the Thousand Illusion Sage.

Poof!

The Thousand Illusion Sage squeezed, and with a poof, the flame extinguished. Then, his palm, like a blade, sliced through the fire dragon back and forth.

Shush, shush, shush.

The fire dragon split into several halves, each flame snuffed out, thoroughly vanished.

Thus, the attacks of the Heaven and Earth Eight Trigrams Array all ended in failure.

Ye Qiu showed a bitter smile; it wasn’t the formation’s attack being weak but the sage being too powerful, beyond what such attacks could contend with.

Looks like I’ll have to step onto the battlefield myself!

Ye Qiu decided to stop dodging; with the formation able to trap the Thousand Illusion Sage, he didn’t have to worry about using his dark power being exposed. Unless he died, the Sage couldn’t leave this formation, and news of the dark power wouldn’t get out.

He could use his dark power with peace of mind.

"What’s wrong? No longer hiding?" Seeing Ye Qiu not disappearing immediately, Thousand Illusion Sage sneered.

Ye Qiu shook his neck, stretched his body, and his expression turned serious: "I want to defeat you with my own hands."

Defeat me?

Thousand Illusion Sage felt he had heard wrongly, scratched his ear, and laughed: "Did I hear right? A little guy who hasn’t even reached the Saint Realm says he wants to defeat me? Kid, you should wake up from your dream."

Although he hadn’t officially fought with Ye Qiu, he could see Ye Qiu’s martial realm was below that of a saint. How could someone not even a saint defeat him? Was it possible?

Ye Qiu wasn’t just talking; he truly wanted to slaughter a saint. With a thought, mysterious patterns quickly spread, radiating from his dantian to cover his whole body, and half of his face was covered by mysterious black lines.

Huh?

The swift change in Ye Qiu’s aura caught the Thousand Illusion Sage’s attention: "Could he suppress the realm? How is it rising so quickly?"

Ye Qiu’s aura surged from the God Realm, skyrocketing in an instant to breach the realms of Human King, Emperor, Void, and even Divinity Transformation.

"Return to Ruins Realm..."

Feeling Ye Qiu’s surge to the late stage of the Return to Ruins Realm shocked Thousand Illusion Sage immensely.

Thousand Illusion Sage recalled when he entered the Return to Ruins Realm; he wasn’t yet a hundred but close to it.

Yet, look at this young man now; he’s in his youth and reached the late stage of the Return to Ruins Realm. What extraordinary talent is this?

Thousand Illusion Sage even began to suspect whether Ye Qiu was a prodigious disciple from some grand sect on the Origin Continent.

Otherwise, how could he reach such a height in martial arts at such a young age?

The Return to Ruins Realm is merely a step away from the Saint Realm. Almost ninety-nine percent of people are stuck below sainthood, yet reaching the Return to Ruins Realm is formidable enough, especially with Ye Qiu being so young. Given his current advancement, breaking through to sainthood seems inevitable, only a matter of time.

"No, there’s something odd about his aura." Thousand Illusion Sage observed carefully and noticed Ye Qiu’s aura, though in the Return to Ruins Realm, seemed somewhat unstable.

Thousand Illusion Sage was accurate in his observation; Ye Qiu’s current Return to Ruins Realm strength was due to dark power, and he wasn’t a true martial artist of that realm, causing the instability.

Moreover, upon close inspection, Thousand Illusion Sage found the patterns on Ye Qiu’s face familiar, with a sense of déjà vu, though he couldn’t recall at the moment.

"What’s going on with your strength?" Thousand Illusion Sage asked in confusion.

Ye Qiu, of course, wouldn’t enlighten him; using dark power made him expect that the other would be amazed, even recognize it.

"If you want to know, maybe in the next life." Ye Qiu replied indifferently.

"Arrogant." Thousand Illusion Sage snorted, "Since you won’t tell, I’ll make you talk."

Thousand Illusion Sage attacked again, and Ye Qiu took a deep breath. His strength reaching the late stage of the Return to Ruins Realm meant he was no longer only able to flee when facing a saint; now, he could at least withstand a couple of strikes.

Thousand Illusion Sage’s attack came swiftly, dauntingly fast to defend against; Ye Qiu had already extended his divine sense, preparing to react immediately.

However, truly facing a saint made his actions lag just a bit.

Bam!

Thousand Illusion Sage punched, aimed at the dantian. Ye Qiu dodged quickly, yet he still couldn’t wholly evade, and the punch grazed his waist.

"Lucky you." Thousand Illusion Sage’s voice echoed in Ye Qiu’s ear. In his heart, Ye Qiu didn’t relax but felt his hair standing on end from the sense of crisis.

Ye Qiu immediately crossed his fists over his chest, and the next moment, his body shook violently as if trampled by an elephant, feeling so suffocated it was hard to breathe.

It turned out that after nearly missing with the first strike, Thousand Illusion Sage reappeared before Ye Qiu at extreme speed, aiming another strike at his chest.

Luckily, Ye Qiu instinctively sensed the aura of death closing in and acted to block with his hands; otherwise, a bloody hole would surely be in his chest at this moment.

Even so, he was still sent flying.

The saint’s power wasn’t something he could withstand.

This gap in major realms was insurmountable for Ye Qiu, and he was sent crashing to the ground.

All this happened in the blink of an eye, leaving Ye Qiu injured.

Clutching his chest, Ye Qiu finally understood why saints were deemed invincible.

The gap was simply too vast, not even on the same level!

Winning was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
