Purple Lightning Wandering Dragon

Faced with Shentu Nantian's relentless advance, Yi Yun was on high alert. He had only emerged from his secluded chamber prematurely after discovering that the rules were malfunctioning and that Lin Xiaodie, Lin Fengyue, and the others were in imminent danger. In reality, now was not the best time for Yi Yun and Lin Xin Tong to emerge from seclusion. Their strength still had much room for improvement, and once they came out, the situation they would face would be extremely complex.

Besides Shentu Nantian, their mortal enemy, they also had to deal with other trial participants, more than 90% of whom were enemies to them.

After Yi Yun and Lin Xin Tong appeared, many people speculated that they possessed extraordinary treasures, and who knows what might happen if things continued like this.

The only thing we can rely on now is the deterrent effect of our strength.

Yi Yun gripped the Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow tightly, took a slight step back, and Chasing Wind Arrows in his hand.

Seeing this scene, Shentu Nantian sneered, clearly mocking Yi Yun for overestimating himself. However, at that moment, he suddenly hummed in agreement.

His cultivation level was higher than Yi Yun's, so he could see Yi Yun's cultivation level clearly. He was shocked to discover that Yi Yun had already condensed a Dao Seed!

"The Dao Seed Realm! Just over half a year ago he was only at the peak of the mid-stage Yuanji Realm, and now he has already condensed a Dao Seed!?"

In just ten months, he went from the peak of the mid-stage of the Yuanji realm to the Dao Seed realm. This was an incredible leap that no one present could have accomplished.

For a moment, everyone looked at Yi Yun with utter shock.

A rapid leap in strength usually has only one possible explanation: consuming some kind of miraculous drug.

As for obtaining an extraordinary martial arts technique that would lead to a leap in strength, none of the participants considered that, because it defied common sense.

Even the most extraordinary cultivation techniques may not have such heaven-defying effects, and the more heaven-defying the technique, the more difficult it is to master.

With such a short time available, and most importantly, with Yi Yun's cultivation level still so low, even if he possessed such an astonishing technique, it's impossible for an Origin Foundation Realm martial artist to master it in just over half a year.

This further convinced people that Yi Yun had probably consumed some rare and precious Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures in the God Descending Tower that allowed his cultivation to leap forward. However, such a leap has both advantages and disadvantages. If one's cultivation rises too quickly and other aspects cannot keep up, resulting in an unstable foundation, then there will be endless troubles in the future.

Such martial artists will not only encounter bottlenecks in their future cultivation, but their strength will also be far inferior to that of martial artists of the same level.

The most effective way to utilize Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures is to suppress one's Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, not to rush to improve, but to continuously comprehend the laws, practice day and night in combat, allowing the body to slowly absorb this power, and finally improve one's strength naturally.

What a waste!

People were both envious and regretful that such a rare and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures had been wasted by that idiot Yi Yun; it was a complete waste of talent.

"You're utterly useless, like mud that can't be plastered on a wall." Shentu Nantian's gaze was gloomy. "The Empress Secret Realm actually gave a fool like you an opportunity. I don't know what the Ancient Empress was thinking! Although you consumed the divine medicine, if I use your blood to refine pills, I can still extract the Medicinal Power. As for you... Lin Xin Tong..."

Shentu Nantian turned to Lin Xin Tong, his eyes gleaming with lewd light. He then used his spiritual energy to transmit his next words directly to Yi Yun and Lin Xin Tong's ears. "I will make you regret betraying me. I will cripple your martial arts and make you my sex slave, draining your vital essence bit by bit!"

Shentu Nantian's words made Yi Yun's face turn completely grim, "Using blood to refine pills...?"

How could Yi Yun forget that when he first met Shentu Nantian realized that Jiang Xiaorou was a member of the Desolate Clan and his first thought was to use Jiang Xiaorou's blood to refine the Desolate Tribe Blood Pill?

Now, he wants to destroy himself and also covets Lin Xin Tong. He and Shentu Nantian are already mortal enemies.

"Prepare to die!" Shentu Nantian suddenly leaped up, his muscles bulging, and his powerful energy surged into his meridians, causing his body to emit a muffled thunderous sound!

The mere circulation of his vital energy could produce thunderous sounds that vibrated the eardrums, allowing people to once again deeply understand Shentu Nantian's power.

Putting aside his comprehension of the laws, the sheer amount of his terrifying spiritual energy alone is several times stronger than that of an average peak Dao Seed martial artist. How could anyone possibly withstand that?

"That kid's finished. What a waste of all their treasures and that pretty girl; they'll all end up with Shentu Nantian!" People were all envious of Shentu Nantian's good fortune.

No matter how high one's talent, it cannot make up for an absolute gap in cultivation level. No matter how talented one is, it is useless if there is no time to grow!

In the blink of an eye, Shentu Nantian its prey. He suddenly slashed down at Yi Yun with his palm!

His attack was powerful and heavy. Normally, such a strong force wouldn't be needed to deal with Yi Yun, but Shentu Nantian was wary of someone trying to snatch food from his jaws. So he planned to suppress Yi Yun with lightning speed, and then imprison Lin Xin Tong and slowly torture her to avoid any unforeseen changes.

Crackle!

Purple lightning flashed, completely enveloping Shentu Nantian's right hand, transforming it into a shimmering lightning blade that slashed towards Yi Yun!

Shentu Nantian specializes in the Law of Thunder!

Wind, rain, thunder, and lightning are all part of the laws of creation. Thunder is similar to pure yang, which is why Shentu Nantian went to Dual Cultivation to obtain Lin Xin Tong and Lin Xin Tong with her.

Once his lightning is nourished by Lin Xin Tong's pure Yin bloodline, his strength will suddenly increase by a whole level!

In an instant, a sea of lightning had formed around Yi Yun, the intertwined bolts engulfing Yi Yun and Lin Xin Tong, leaving them with no way to escape!

Just as Shentu Nantian's right hand, enveloped in the Thunder Blade, was about to strike Yi Yun's crown, Yi Yun made his move!

He did not draw his sword or his blade, but instead held the Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow, using the bow as his weapon to slash at Shentu Nantian!

The bow tip of the Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow has sharp blades at both ends. The Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow was originally a divine Divine Weapon treasured by Lord Qingyang. The quality of the blades at the bow tip is far superior to any weapon possessed by any of the trial participants present!

Seeing Yi Yun use a bow as a weapon, Shentu Nantian burst into laughter. A bow is for shooting arrows, not for using it like a stick to hit people—isn't that just suicide?

"Die!" Shentu Nantian roared, and terrifying lightning bolts rained down from the sky, colliding with the Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow!

At that moment, the pure Yang law within Yi Yun's body erupted, and the vast Pure Yang Power circulated according to the first level of the <Empress Heart Sutra>. The vital energy was poured into the Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow, and the Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow seemed to suddenly come alive. It rolled in the purple sea of lightning, like a divine dragon galloping across the lightning domain!

Hold head high--

It was as if a high-pitched Dragon Roar's roar suddenly erupted, and all the purple lightning in the sky was swept away by the Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow! It was as if an invisible energy vortex had attracted all the lightning. This was the suppression of the laws cultivated by Shentu Nantian by Yi Yun, who was at a higher level of pure Yang law!

"You're the one who'll die!"

Yi Yun roared, his sharp aura unstoppable, as if he himself had transformed into a divine sword, his momentum soaring to the heavens!

Wielding the Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow, he unleashed boundless purple lightning and Pure Yang Power, slashing towards Shentu Nantian!

What!?

Shentu Nantian felt his energy stagnate, and then he saw a purple ocean sweeping towards him. The power that originally belonged to him was actually driven by the Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow and rushed towards him.

Shentu Nantian's pupils contracted. He had never encountered such a situation before, and he couldn't believe that such a situation would occur in Yi Yun's hands!

He didn't have time to think it through; he gripped the hilt of the sword, and the Longsword shot out with a whoosh!

Sword Qi roared, and lightning flashed!

In the sky, the purple sword and the golden bow clashed without any fancy moves, unleashing a burst of energy!

"Boom!"

The terrifying energy surged outwards, and those who were not strong enough were thrown away by the force, their blood and qi churning!

Even Shentu Nantian himself felt his arm go numb in the turbulent current, and his Longsword almost slipped from his hand.

The rampant Pure Yang Power surged into Shentu Nantian's body, causing him excruciating pain in all his meridians. His body was sent flying backward by the powerful impact!

"Boom!"

Shentu Nantian crashed heavily onto the crystal pillar. He felt a sudden pain in his back, but thanks to the protection of his vital energy, he was not seriously injured.

At this moment, he didn't have time to check his injuries. He looked at Yi Yun in disbelief and saw that although Yi Yun had taken a few steps back, he had supported his body with the Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow and did not seem to have much blood and energy depletion.

That's impossible!

Shentu Nantian inwardly. The scene before him made him almost think that he had fallen into the Heart Demon Secret Realm again and encountered Yi Yun in a nightmare state.

How could Yi Yun, who was only sixteen years old, possibly defeat someone far stronger than him in a single blow?

Although Shentu Nantian did not use his full strength just now, this result should definitely not have happened.

He simply couldn't believe it was true.

Not only Shentu Nantian, but all the other trial participants present watched this scene in utter shock. Their expressions were frozen, their mouths slightly open, like zombies frozen in place by talismans, completely motionless.

The entire Blackstone Plaza was as silent as a graveyard, except for the purple lightning that still flickered in the sky. A few trial participants who had been thrown back by the explosion because they were standing too close were screaming as they got up, their eyes filled with utter horror.

"Is it really... really Yi Yun?"

Lin Xiaodie, who had been extremely anxious, muttered to herself. She had entered the Empress Secret Realm with Yi Yun and come all this way together. Standing next to Lin Xiaodie, Lin Fengyue didn't know whether to nod or shake his head. He was also so surprised that he couldn't speak.

At sixteen, he suppressed Shentu Nantian, whose cultivation level was vastly different. Moreover, Shen Shentu Nantian, who was being suppressed, was originally a renowned genius in the Tianyuan Realm, whose combat ability at the same level was unmatched. Yet, this scene still happened, which was hard to believe.
