Lord of Bones

Chapter 736: The Middle Stage of Huawen Realm

Even if Teng Qing used up all his strength, he would not be able to withstand the terrifying attack comparable to that of a half-step Life Spirit Realm expert.

Under the protection of the Nine Profound Snow Silver Dragon, Li Yuan had already felt that terrifying power, which had shaken the formation on the top of the mountain to the point of collapse.

Therefore, he did not hesitate for a moment, and the energy in his body surged.

The surrounding space fluctuated and his figure disappeared instantly.

Just as Li Yuan's figure disappeared, a giant hand that covered the sky and the sun fell down with a bang.

The devastating force slammed heavily onto the giant defensive wall formed by countless vines.

Suddenly, the world seemed to freeze, and the air was filled with depression and despair.

Immediately, huge amounts of energy surged into the vines like a tide.

Those vines that were once full of vitality and tenacious seemed to groan in pain under the impact of this force.

They fought hard, but ultimately could not withstand the overwhelming attack.

"boom--"

There was a deafening explosion, and all the vines instantly burst into pieces of sawdust.

This scene was like the end of the world. The entire space was shaking and ripples were constantly appearing.

Then, dark cracks torn in space appeared like the mouth of a ferocious beast, swallowing everything around, and the breath of collapse and destruction spread.

Thousands of feet away, the space trembled slightly and a crack appeared.

Li Yuan slowly stepped out of the crack in the void, looked back and saw the top of Shuiyun Peak.

The once indestructible energy barrier was now torn like thin paper, revealing a hideous black hole of emptiness. Li Yuan couldn't help but feel a sense of fear in his heart.

"Li Yuan, you have reached a dead end, so don't blame me for being ruthless and sending you into reincarnation with my own hands!"

At the top of Shuiyun Peak, a voice as cold as frost, old and majestic, crossed the barriers of time and space and struck Li Yuan's heart directly.

As soon as he finished speaking, a breath as vast as the ocean and majestic as unparalleled surged out from the top of the peak, like a storm, rolling up the wind and clouds, and shaking the space.

"This old monster is really haunting us!"

Li Yuan cursed inwardly as the wings of thunder and flame behind him suddenly spread out, cutting through the sky and galloping towards the horizon.

However, things did not go as planned. Before they had flown a hundred miles, the space ahead suddenly solidified, as if it was grasped by an invisible hand, and turned into an indestructible barrier.

Li Yuan was caught off guard and his body hit it hard. He felt dizzy and his blood was churning.

The whole person flew backwards for more than a hundred feet like a kite with a broken string, and just managed to steady himself. A trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he looked a little embarrassed.

At this moment, the void in front shattered like a mirror, and an old figure walked out slowly from it. It was Shui Qing, the great elder of Shuiyun Peak.

Shui Qing was wearing a tattered robe, his body covered with scars, his eyes were like deep cold pools, revealing a strong murderous intent.

He stared at Li Yuan and spoke word by word, "Li Yuan, if you know what's good for you, tell me the whereabouts of the Spirit Devouring Demon Vine. Maybe I can still let you keep your body intact."

Before he finished his words, an even more violent force burst out from Shui Qing's body, squeezing the air around him so hard that it made crackling sounds.

The surrounding scenery became distorted and blurred under the impact of this momentum, as if the whole world had lost its color and order at this moment.

"Sperm-eating demon vine?
"The last time you chased me, you said that I had killed him."

Li Yuan sneered, his words revealing unquestionable confidence, while secretly examining Shui Qing's aura.

He discovered that although the other party was still in the late stage of Huawen Realm, he revealed an unconcealable vanity, like a shaky tower with an unstable foundation.

Li Yuan secretly speculated that as the distance from the top of Shuiyun Peak gradually increased, the protective power from successive masters seemed to be quietly weakening.

This gave him a glimmer of hope and also an opportunity to fight back.

As long as he escapes a little further, Shui Qing's rapidly increasing cultivation level will drop.

He would be confident that he could repel it or even kill it.

Shui Qing heard this, but he was not angry, he snorted coldly: "Where are your Huawen Realm helper and the divine beast?
“It doesn’t matter, they are no match for me now.

“Besides, they probably can’t help you at this moment.

“Once I capture you and extract your soul and refine your spirit, I will naturally know the whereabouts of the Spirit Devouring Demon Vine.

"I want to see what other tricks you have up your sleeve..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Yuan had already thrown out several Yuanwen scrolls and activated them.

The Yuanwen scrolls bloomed in the air like gorgeous fireworks, containing power enough to shake mountains.

Seeing this, Shui Qing retreated violently and waved his long sleeves at the same time. Sharp gusts of wind whistled out and collided with the Yuan Formation arranged by the Yuanwen scrolls.

"Boom bang bang-"

A series of explosions echoed across the sky.

When the smoke and dust cleared, Li Yuan's figure had long disappeared.

"What a cunning boy!"

Shui Qing was furious and became even more determined to kill Li Yuan.

"No matter where you run to, I will kill you!"

After he finished speaking, his body shook, and the energy around him surged, tearing the void apart, and he stepped directly into the crack in the void.

…………

At the end of the vast sky, the void seemed to be suddenly cut apart by an invisible sharp blade.

Two extremely brilliant rays of light burst out from the crack, causing the surrounding wind and clouds to change and the sky and earth to change color.

"Li Yuan, your end has come!

"The Tianyun Sect's formation covers an area of ​​millions of miles. Where can you escape to?"

Amid the churning sea of ​​clouds, the voice of Great Elder Shui Qing resounded like thunder.

Li Yuan had an uninhibited smile on his face, and his body was surrounded by colorful lightning flames, like the god of thunder riding the storm.

His speed increased instead of decreasing, and he laughed, "Haha, Great Elder Shui Qing, how do you feel about your declining cultivation level?
"With my current cultivation level, it is more than enough for me to fly freely in this world.

"Do you think I can leave?"

While provoking, he activated a scroll of elemental patterns and swung it out.

Although the Yuan Formation formed by the Yuan Pattern Scroll did not pose a fatal threat to Shui Qing, it was enough to distract him.

At the top of Shuiyun Peak, Shui Qing had a deep understanding of the power of the Void Slashing Array, and naturally did not want Li Yuan to use a scroll of that power on him again.

However, as he gradually moved away from Shuiyun Peak, the protective power he received from the Baiyun Pillar declined sharply.

His cultivation had fallen to the middle stage of Huawen Realm, and an unprecedented sense of crisis arose spontaneously.

If Li Yuan were allowed to escape some distance further and he recovered to his normal level, he would definitely not be a match for Li Yuan.

The situation was urgent. A look of determination flashed in Shui Qing's eyes. He took a deep breath, and the energy in his body boiled, as if he wanted to bring the entire world under his control.

He formed seals with his hands, and the energy in his body surged, tearing a larger crack in the void. His figure flashed and passed through the void, appearing not far in front of Li Yuan.

"Li Yuan, today is the end of you!"

When Shui Qing appeared, he shouted so loudly that the surrounding space trembled.

The energy in his body condensed into substance and transformed into sharp blades that surrounded him, ready to launch a fatal attack.

“I don’t believe you still have the elemental pattern scroll for attacks of that level.

"Even if there are, with the soul power you consumed along the way to activate the Yuanwen scrolls, I don't know if the soul power you have left now, combined with your cultivation of the half-step Huawen realm, can activate that number of Yuanwen scrolls."

"Great Elder, are you willing to give it a try?" Li Yuan's figure suddenly froze in the air, a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said with a hint of provocation.

Shui Qing frowned slightly when he heard this, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, showing fear as well as the pride and unwillingness of a strong man.

In an instant, the fierceness in his eyes became even more intense, and he made a decision: “Okay!

"I will accompany you to try it."

Li Yuan smiled meaningfully and said, "This place is far away from Shuiyun Peak. With your current cultivation level, I think you don't need to use that precious Yuanwen scroll."

"What do you mean?" Shui Qing had an ominous premonition in his heart, and he tried to catch a clue from Li Yuan's expression with his eyes sharp as torches.

"Do you think you are the only one who can use external forces to improve your cultivation?" Li Yuan said calmly, "Xiao Yaoyao, it's time to show your ability."

Then, a warm and powerful force slowly rose from deep within his body, like the first rays of dawn, gentle and full of vitality, instantly dispelling the chillness around him.

His aura began to undergo earth-shaking changes. At this moment, his cultivation seemed to be injected with infinite power, rising wildly to the peak of the Half-Step Transformation Realm.

The next moment, he broke through the shackles of that realm and entered the Huawen realm.

A powerful wave of energy surged out from his body.

At the same time, a circle of mysterious, complex, and substantial elemental patterns slowly emerged behind him, containing the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, and seemed like the most exquisite totem in the universe.

As the Yuan Pattern solidified, Li Yuan's cultivation level actually rose again, reaching the middle stage of the Half-Step Hua Pattern Realm.

The terrifying aura swept across like a storm, causing the surrounding space to tremble and create ripples.

"You... can actually enter the Transformation Realm?"

Shui Qing's eyes widened with disbelief, and his voice trembled, revealing deep shock and fear.

"Now that you and I have equal cultivation levels, let's see who will have the last laugh." Li Yuan's lips curled up into a faint smile.

Before he finished speaking, the space around Li Yuan was torn apart by an invisible force, and space fragments scattered everywhere.

His figure disappeared in an instant, leaving only a faint afterimage that slowly dissipated in the air.

In an instant, Shui Qing felt a suffocating feeling of oppression suddenly coming over him.

Then, Li Yuan's figure appeared not far from him, with a long sword surrounded by lightning flames in his hand.

Li Yuan swung his sword and slashed out a thunder flame moon blade wrapped in Yuan patterns, which cut through the sky and headed straight for Shui Qing.

Faced with the sudden and powerful attack, Shui Qing's face changed instantly and he hurriedly raised the white sword in his hand.

This sword is the condensed power of the White Cloud Pillar at the top of Shuiyun Peak. Although it is not a physical ingot, it also contains extraordinary power.

"Bam—"

The Thunder Flame Moon Blade and the white sword collided violently in the air, causing a deafening roar.

The next moment, the white sword suddenly broke like a fragile porcelain, the fragments flew everywhere, and turned into points of light that dissipated in the air.

Shui Qing was horrified. He never expected that Li Yuan's power was so strong.

Even the greatsword formed by the power of the White Cloud Pillar, which he was so proud of, could not withstand it.

But he forgot that the white sword needed the continuous blessing of the White Cloud Pillar.

At this moment, far away from the top of Shuiyun Peak, the power of the white sword fell at the same time as his cultivation level.

With the help of the powerful impact force generated by the collision between the two, he retreated violently and flew backwards more than a thousand feet, leaving a trail of afterimages along the way, revealing his embarrassment and fear at the moment.

"Great Elder Shui Qing, you are truly skilled and quick-witted. You are truly admirable." Li Yuan was suspended in the sky, looking at Shui Qing who was steadying himself in the distance, and smiled with a bit of amusement and provocation.

"Li Yuan, don't be so arrogant.

“When I left Shuiyun Peak, I sent a message to the deputy sect leader.

"She will be here in person, and there is no way you can leave."

Shui Qing looked at Li Yuan warily, with a fierce look in his eyes. He deliberately mentioned the deputy sect leader in his words, trying to intimidate the other party in the name of authority.

"Shui Hanyan..." Li Yuan couldn't help but feel a little moved when he heard this.

He had never expected that this battle would alarm the legendary strong man and realize the seriousness of the situation.

"It seems that you have done in-depth research on the guardian jade slip." Shui Qing caught the instant change in Li Yuan's expression and was somewhat surprised that Li Yuan could say Shui Hanyan's name so quickly.

Li Yuan did have a very clear understanding of the Tianyun Sect from the jade slip information given by Mu Li.

The four deputy leaders of Tianyun Sect are all top talents that the sect has devoted all its efforts to cultivate.

The cultivation level of half a step into the life spirit realm is enough to daunt any challenger.

Among these four, only Shui Hanyan, who ascended to the throne of deputy sect leader six hundred years ago, has a close connection with Shuiyun Peak.

The others are old monsters over two thousand years old, and they have not come to Shuiyun Peak for thousands of years.

"Quick battle, quick decision!" Li Yuan's face gradually became solemn, and a fighting spirit that should not be underestimated permeated his body.

He held the Broken Bone Knife tightly in his right hand, and lightning flashed on the blade, as if it contained the power to destroy the world.

He lightly touched his forehead with his left hand, and a dazzling nine-colored divine flame burst out from it.

It instantly condensed into a crystal cauldron several inches in size, with nine-colored divine flames swirling around it, dazzling and eye-catching.

He swung it violently, and the cauldron shot out like an arrow, with a long trail of nine-colored divine flames, and shot towards Shui Qing hundreds of feet away.

Wherever it passed, the space was burned by the nine-colored divine flames, leaving behind twisted traces, demonstrating its unparalleled power.

The Qiankun Ding was like a comet that broke free from the dark sky, its volume expanding rapidly, like a towering mountain descending from the void, causing the space to tremble.

Shui Qing looked up at the Qiankun Ding, which was carrying the power to destroy the world. His face turned ashen in an instant, and fear spread in his heart like ice.

He could clearly feel that the power contained in the divine cauldron was enough to completely kill him and turn him into nothingness.

At the critical moment, Shui Qing waved his hands quickly, and the surrounding space seemed to respond to his call, with ripples appearing.

Pure and flawless white energy surged out from the void, interweaving and merging.

Finally, it condensed into an extremely huge white shield above his head.

The shield was covered with dense Yuan patterns, emitting a faint light, as if it were real.

It reveals an indestructible texture, as if it can withstand all attacks in the world.
