God's Pure Land
In the Great Yu Capital, a group of people looked up, the white moonlight shining into their hearts.
Once the betting began, everyone placing bets wore expressions of anticipation.
In the streets and alleys, in restaurants and teahouses, almost every topic of conversation was related to the competition on the moon; even those who weren't gamblers were discussing it enthusiastically.
The full moon hangs high in the night fog.
People would occasionally look up, their Divine Capital drawn in.
Outside the South Heaven Gate, the ground Crimson Gold Stone, and the area was very spacious, large enough for two armies to fight.
A young man of high status from another race appeared, and his appearance drew close attention from many on the Immortal Path, as he had shown extraordinary talent during their last sparring session, and many still vividly remembered his moment of glory.
The group of young Sun Elf Race stood up and watched him walk towards the open arena, showing considerable respect for his status and position.
Qin Ming recognized him; he had seen him before at the Shuyu River.
Little Wu was even more eager to try, and was extremely dissatisfied with this Sun Elf.
The other party had sown discord among them at the divine palace, saying that the three of them, as inferior beings, dared to disrespect the River God's sacred site, and that if they were among the Sun Elf Race, they would surely be burned to ashes and returned to the light.
"Ming Ge, let me do it!" Little Wu stood up.
Many people looked at him strangely; this bald man was not to be trifled with, both fierce and belligerent.
On the opposite side, among the Sun Elf Race, the girl who had been severely injured by Wu Yaozu had awakened and was now filled with shame and indignation.
The two bald men stared at each other from a distance, their eyes filled with mutual loathing.
The girl quickly realized what was happening and hurriedly put on her hat.
In the end, Qin Ming himself had to take the plunge; he needed the Sunfire to practice the <Li Fire Scripture>.
"Guang Yu, show us your true skills, or you'll be caught off guard. I'll be waiting to spar with you in the Third Realm!" said a high-ranking seed-level powerhouse among the Sun Elf.
These words caused many disciples of the Immortal Path to frown.
Do those foreigners really think they can win this battle so easily? And to use the phrase "capsized in a ditch" is really going too far.
Little Wu touched his bald head, Xiang Yiwu rubbed his large, fan-like hands together, both wishing they could personally take to the field again.
"Guang Yu, unleash your overwhelming power! You must crush him!" shouted the Elven voice from the foreign tribes.
Someone who understood the language translated it, which immediately caused a stir.
The foreign tribes had high expectations for the Sun Elf and were full of confidence.
Guang Yu and deliberate gait, and was extremely handsome.
He had fair skin, deep purple eyes, a high nose bridge, and long golden hair that fluttered in the wind, making him seem to glow.
His outstanding appearance, coupled with his Foreign Domain charm, captivated many noble ladies from the Great Yu Dynasty who were watching from the sidelines.
Guang Yu was calm, radiating confidence from his very core. Bathed in light, every step he took seemed precisely measured, and his gentle rhythm seemed to carry an unfathomable power.
Sure enough, when he broke free from this peace, everything changed. It was as if a calm sea suddenly erupted, creating massive waves that swept across the sky.
He radiated a dazzling Golden Haze, his long hair flowing freely, and in his hand appeared a massive golden hammer, as large as a stone millstone, wrapped with intricate golden symbols.
Just moments ago he was ethereal and otherworldly, his profile alone enough to captivate many women; now, in the blink of an eye, this stunningly beautiful Sun Elf is about to wield a giant hammer—a stark contrast.
With his well-proportioned figure, Guang Yu unleashed a power unimaginable to ordinary people. With one step, the hard Crimson Gold Stone ground beneath his feet instantly shattered.
He wielded a massive hammer, appearing out of nowhere, his entire body radiating golden light as he blasted towards his nearby opponent.
The fact that these nature-loving spirits are so brave is beyond many people's expectations.
The golden hammer created a white shockwave and a terrifying explosion as it slammed into the air.
Whether they were high-ranking nobles or renowned figures from all walks of life, they all asked themselves: if they could return to their youth, could they withstand this attack? The answer was extremely pessimistic!
Qin Ming remained fearless, as if strolling in a leisurely garden. Even in such a tense moment, he still possessed an otherworldly demeanor, no less impressive than the Foreign Domain Elf Race before him.
He did not shy away from its sharp edge, but instead went to meet it head-on, clenching his right hand tightly as if trying to grasp some primordial power between heaven and earth.
Five-colored light and mist appeared around him, accompanied by a wondrous scene, making him appear as if he were standing in a five-colored Immortal Mist, transcending the mundane world.
That was the Five-Elements Spirit Light, ever-renewing, which quickly transformed into a five-colored galaxy, revolving around him at high speed.
Qin Ming used his right fist and left palm to forcefully clash with the Sun Elf.
Outside the arena, many young cultivators on the Immortal Path were greatly shocked, and some young noblemen and women found it outrageous that he could withstand such a heavy weapon with his bare hands?
Qin Ming used pure Heavenly Light Force to meet his opponent. Of course, he did not underestimate it in the slightest. He combined the five Extraordinary Art into one. Although he had never been to the Top Great Sects, the Five Elements Palace, he had now evolved the purest Five Elements Force!
In an instant, he was enveloped by the Five-Colored Divine Ring, and between his fists and palms, five-colored rays of light Lingering, with an unfathomable Daoist charm enhancing the extreme splendor.
Qin Ming refused to believe it. He had cultivated power surpassing even the Four Royals Force. In close combat, could he really not stop this Sun Elf who was on the Immortal Path?
In an instant, his left palm blocked the hammer, while his right fist slammed out fiercely, causing the void to seem to rumble and a burst of Multicolored Divine Radiance to erupt.
Suddenly, a silver hammer appeared in the Sun Elf's left hand, though it was slightly smaller, and it slammed towards Qin Ming's right fist.
Clearly, Guang Yu possesses a rare storage treasure.
The two clashed, and after a brief collision, they sped off again at such a high speed that many people could no longer see them.
They were all unleashing extremely powerful forces, their bodies accompanied by Astral Wind that whipped up the Crimson Gold Stone paving the ground, causing them to float in mid-air before shattering and exploding.
The two sides clashed many times, engaging in close combat. Qin Ming's Fist Print and palm strikes were crystal clear, carrying five-colored runes, fully demonstrating the foundation of the legendary Heavenly Light Force.
Finally, in the midst of a dazzling clash, a cracking sound rang out as the silver hammer in the Sun Elf's left hand shattered into pieces and fell to the ground.
In his right hand, the golden hammer, the size of a stone millstone, was also full of gaps, crisscrossing like a spider web.
He swung the hammer with all his might, smashing it down towards the ethereal young man in front of him.
This time, Qin Ming stood still, only extending his right arm and pointing a finger at the massive golden hammer.
Time seemed to stand still, the scene appeared frozen.
Qin Ming stood within the Five-Colored Light Wheel, blocking the terrifying hammer blow with a single finger. The two remained locked in a stalemate, neither moving.
Snap! Splash!
In the end, the golden hammer in the Sun Elf's hand disintegrated into a pile of metal fragments, which crashed in all directions.
Guang Yu gripped half of the hammer handle in his hand, retreating rapidly. His long golden hair flew wildly, and his handsome face remained calm, showing no sign of panic.
Behind him, Qin Ming rode the five elements, as if stepping on auspicious five-colored clouds, rising off the ground, his right arm outstretched, still maintaining the posture of pointing out with one finger.
This finger strike produced a terrifying sound and shot out awe-inspiring Five-Colored Divine Radiance.
Guang Yu has a strong combat awareness and is quite experienced.
From his hand, a palm-sized golden shield flew out, blocking the pursuit of the powerful enemy, and a spirit blade forged from Lightning Strike Wood, imbued with Thunderfire and fire, slashed out at lightning speed.
Boom!
Qin Ming actually shattered the golden shield with a single finger, a scene that shocked all his peers.
Then, he joined his fingers together to form a palm and slashed diagonally at the spirit blade that flew towards him with the power of Thunderfire and fire. With a crack, he actually broke a fine weapon of the Immortal Path in half with his bare hands, and then shattered it.
However, after being blocked like this, Qin Ming's movements slowed down slightly.
The Sun Elf distanced himself from him and stood on the open ground outside the South Heaven Gate.
At this moment, a chilling aura emanated from Guang Yu, followed by what seemed like Sword-Ray Chongxiao, about to tear open the night sky above the moon.
He seemed to transform into a Immortal Sword, as if about to shatter the void, his entire being releasing an extremely terrifying, invisible sword intent.
"Mind Sword!" Many young disciples on the Immortal Path were astonished. Even those with Immortal Seed at the Second Realm might not be able to unleash the Mind Sword, let alone a sword intent of this intensity.
Everyone realized that he was truly capable, and that his abilities were not solely due to the Sunfire.
The Mind Sword is invisible, yet omnipresent, making it extremely terrifying.
The Sun Elf pointed its finger, and it was as if a transparent Immortal Sword was drawn from its sheath and slashed at its opponent.
Qin Ming did not dodge, but calmly stepped forward. As he moved forward, ripples rose from beneath his feet, layer upon layer, protecting him within them.
Near the South Heaven Gate, both Chu Yuan and Jiang Yunfan felt like they were about to burst into tears. This guy had finally remembered the various Immortal Path techniques they had taught him after fighting for so long.
The two believed that Qin Ming's actions were not due to a "change of heart," but rather a spur-of-the-moment decision to test the law.
Because everyone can see that his Five Elements Heavenly Light Force still has unpredictable power that can be released.
Qin Ming appeared to be using Consciousness Sword Wave his enemy, with golden ripples expanding outwards. In reality, he was mainly evolving with the Heavenly Light Force, with ripples layer upon layer enveloping him outside his body.
Guang Yu's Mind Sword was incredibly powerful, formless and shapeless. When it struck, it produced a terrifying clanging sound on the ripples around Qin Ming's body, with light splashing everywhere and Divine Rosy Radiance surging.
Who would have thought that the Sun Elf, who was just swinging a giant hammer, would now display an unpredictable Mind Sword, completely changing his style.
Many people were horrified; if it were anyone else, they would have been killed by this invisible Mind Sword if caught off guard.
Everyone guessed that Guang Yu was wielding the hammer to conceal his true area of expertise, and now he was unleashing his Mind Sword Light in succession, which was extremely dangerous.
Outside Qin Ming's body, Heavenly Light Sword Wave rippled, blocking the Mind Sword and then expanding outwards.
Some areas could be seen to be constantly sinking, with the ripples severely distorted. However, the force with which he pushed the Heavenly Light Sword Wave outward grew stronger and stronger, eventually sweeping forward.
The two forces clashed with Sword Qi, and a terrifying killing intent filled the air. Although there were no swords involved, they emitted a piercing sword cry. Even the incredibly hard Crimson Gold Stone on the ground nearby were lifted off the ground as if swept away by an autumn wind, and then shattered and exploded.
Puff!
The Sun Elf spat out a mouthful of blood, which was accompanied by flames. He was seriously injured, and his Mind Sword was no match for the Heavenly Light Sword Wave!
"Guang Yu!"
Among the foreigners, many people suddenly stood up, all showing expressions of worry.
Standing before the South Heaven Gate, Xiang Yiwu muttered to himself, "You still dare to say you won't capsize in a ditch? I think it's the vast ocean that will capsize your little paper boat!"
Guang Yu did not retreat, but stubbornly moved forward, continuously slashing out with his invisible Mind Sword. In an instant, Sword Qi crisscrossed between the two, and the clanging sound was endless.
Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, but his body straightened even more, and he lunged forward a few more steps, getting very close to his opponent!
The Sun Elf continued to unleash his Mind Sword, showing signs of fatigue. Just when many thought he was about to succumb to the Heavenly Light Sword Wave, the scene around him suddenly changed completely.
With a deafening roar, a thunderclap exploded, tearing through the battlefield, and blazing clouds surged, as if a small golden world was opening up.
Guang Yu's aura changed; his golden hair flew wildly, his eyes were sharp, and his whole body was crackling with electricity, creating a blindingly bright area within a ten-foot radius, becoming a domain of lightning.
"Guang Yu has finally released his Inner Landscape!" Many people from the foreign tribes were very excited, as if they had expected this to happen.
Many Sun Elf breathed a sigh of relief, completely at ease, because now it was a sure thing, and Guang Yu was bound to win!
Many people on the Immortal Path changed their expressions drastically, immediately realizing that this Sun Elf had learned the ancient immortal techniques, not the pure Immortal Path of today.
The Ancient Immortal Method naturally include two paths: the divine path and the immortal path. In the early stages, the difference is not significant, but they diverge in the Third Realm, with Guang Yu leaning towards the God Path.
Because he had actually seen through the secrets of the inner Inner Landscape ahead of time, which is a manifestation of the Third Realm of the Esoteric Sect.
Whether in ancient times or in this era, only a small number of people on the God Path can comprehend the methods of the Third Realm ahead of time.
Guang Yu is such a gifted being!
The Third Realm of the God Path — the Inner Landscape —is the foundation for future godhood.
This is the God Path that one contemplates and resolves to take after mental visualization. Once the construction and refinement are complete, the Inner Landscape vision will appear, and it will eventually harmonize with the unique terrain and celestial landscape.
The Path to Godhood in the Esoteric Sect has several branches, one of which is the suppression of special realms. In conjunction with these realms, there are also rumored terrifying creatures that can subdue strange celestial phenomena.
The third realm is a manifestation of the nascent Pure Land before becoming a god, with the goal of becoming a mountain god, and thus the manifestation is naturally of mountains and other natural phenomena.
Guang Yu wanted to become the Thunder Duke of ancient mythology. The Inner Landscape he revealed was exactly what it looked like now. Within a radius of one zhang, golden thunder power permeated the air, and lightning intertwined, as if a tangible Pure Land of Thunder Path been created.
Clearly, he was still in the Second Realm. Even with his exceptional talent, it was incredibly difficult for him to use the Inner Landscape techniques that could only be displayed in the Third Realm. It took him a long time to prepare before they finally surfaced at the last moment.
"I am invincible within a ten-foot radius!" the Sun Elf said coldly, his mouth flashing with lightning.
He was completely bathed in electric light, which had not been revealed at all before; he was a natural-born user of lightning.
"The God's Pure Land, where the Inner Landscape of thunder reigns supreme!" In the distance, many youths from the foreign tribes shouted this out.
Without a doubt, the path to godhood that Guang Yu chose is terrifying; it is the legendary path to becoming a top-tier deity.
Off the field, even the leading figures of this generation of Immortal Path, such as Jiang Ran, Pei Shuyan, Cui Chonghe, and Li Qingyue, were watching closely, their eyes Divine Radiance.
Suddenly, Guang Yu paused, "Huh?"
He painstakingly unleashed the techniques of the Third Realm, borrowing some of the power of his Inner Landscape, and indeed quickly broke through the layers of protective ripples of his opponent's body.
However, in the final stage, he failed to overpower the boy in front of him. After the boy's body swayed violently, he regained his balance and stood there calmly.
Moreover, Guang Yu felt that the External Manifestation Inner Landscape of his God's Pure Land was becoming unstable and began to tremble violently.
"I'll give you another chance to rephrase your words!" Qin Ming said, and a shower of light fell. He appeared ethereal and clear, and various sacred scenes emerged from the place where he stood, gradually becoming clear. He was like a god who had come from ancient times, breaking through the fog of history and arriving in the present world.
