Supreme Yin Chain-Form!
"I'm not convinced!"
Faced with Qi Yun's superior attitude, Song Kun was filled with rage and raised his hand to curse, but before he could finish speaking, a buzzing sound came from his mouth!
The entire [Supreme Yin Chain-Form Grand Formation] suddenly closed, an invisible barrier separating the inside from the outside, turning this space into an independent, isolated domain.
"Aren't you a specialist in the Way of Stars and the Moon?"
Qi Yun's voice came through the Formation Art, clear and cold.
"Fine, then I'll kill you using this method."
The Method Formula was activated, and the great formation roared into operation.
Supreme Yin is the essence of extreme Yin, which governs killing and administers punishments.
Its appearance is cool and aloof, its nature is fierce and intense.
This formation seizes the chilling aura of heaven and earth, turning the vitality of Creation into deathly stillness.
Drawing the moon's rays as a blade, gathering starlight as a prison.
The place where the formation is completed becomes the Supreme Yin Prison.
Above the dome shrouded by the Formation Art, a huge, pale, lifeless "false moon" appeared out of thin air, surrounded by cold, deathly starlight trails, slowly rotating and emanating a chill that corrodes everything.
There was no wind within the formation, yet a chilling cold, penetrating to the bone and freezing the soul, arose out of nowhere and spread silently.
"Trying to use the Way of the Stars and Moon to suppress me?"
Wishful thinking!"
Song Kun snorted coldly, forcibly suppressing his injuries, and poured his remaining Law Power into his [Star Sea Azure Moon Domain] without reservation.
The sea of stars above his head surged with fury, and the clear light of the pale moon shone brightly. He attempted to use his understanding of the Way of the Stars and Moon to seize control of the power of the stars and moon that had been distorted by the Formation Art, and to use the brilliance of the stars to fight against the lifeless false moon.
For a moment, the scene within the formation became bizarre. On one side were the stars and the bright moon, shining with the light of life, which Song Kun had been desperately trying to support;
On the other side were the cold, pale, and all-consuming pseudo-moon and dark star, evolved from the grand formation.
Two forces, though originating from the same source, are diametrically opposed and collide and erode each other violently.
Sizzle sizzle sizzle--!
The starlight and the radiance of the false moon made a sound like cold water dripping into hot oil.
The stars in Song Kun's Domain Heaven dimmed rapidly, as if all their vitality had been absorbed by the pale, false moon, which even cast a gray shadow over the moon itself.
The omnipresent "Supreme Yin Power" ignored the obstruction of his protective divine light and seeped in bit by bit. Wherever it passed, the flow of Law Power in his body became sluggish, his meridians were as if frozen, and even his thoughts seemed to be frozen.
"Impossible!" Song Kun's eyes widened in shock as he sensed his Dao Foundation and Domain Heaven being suppressed by a power of the same origin.
He quickly activated his sword technique, unleashing streaks of starlight and moonlight sword energy that slashed at the surrounding void, attempting to tear apart the array's walls. However, these attacks were like throwing mud into the sea, only provoking a more ferocious counterattack from the Formation Art.
The pale, false moon suddenly shone brightly, and countless strands of condensed Supreme Yin, like cold, scathing swords, wove together to form a net and ruthlessly slashed down!
At the same time, the surrounding cold starlight suddenly contracted, turning into invisible shackles that tightly bound his Star Sea Azure Moon Domain.
Click----
A clear cracking sound rang out, and under the absolute silence and killing intent eroding the illusory image of the Star Domain Heaven above Song Kun's head, several stars within that Star Sea suddenly shattered.
Song Kun's face turned pale instantly.
The Foundation Establishment Realm Heaven is the foundation of True Person; if one is damaged, all are damaged.
"Wait—wait—!"
Seeing the cracks spreading in the Dao Foundation of his painstakingly cultivated [Star Sea Azure Moon Domain], and its brilliance rapidly dimming, Song Kun knew that continuing the fight would inevitably damage his very core. His face twitched.
Finally suppressing all his pride and resentment, he hissed and opened his mouth, ready to beg for mercy.
Even ants cherish life; he didn't want to perish like this!
However, Qi Yun clearly had no intention of giving him that opportunity.
The moment Song Kun spoke, the vast and boundless Great Luo Law Power within Qi Yun, imbued with Supreme Dao essence, surged even more fiercely into the [Human Emperor Banner] suspended in mid-air, like a flood bursting its banks!
Buzz-!!!
The entire [Supreme Yin Chain-Form Grand Formation] suddenly surged in power, its oppressive force multiplying!
The cold, pale, and lifeless "yin moon" in the center of the formation suddenly trembled, emitting a terrifying gravitational force that could devour everything and end all things!
The void twisted under this gravity, and the Spiritual Qi, light, and even dust within the Formation Art's range began to uncontrollably disintegrate and disperse towards the waning moon, turning into pale, desolate streams of light that were mercilessly devoured by it.
Qi Yun's gaze remained indifferent, piercing through layers of Formation Art light screens to land on Song Kun, whose face was deathly pale, without uttering a word.
But the aura emanating from him grew increasingly intense and domineering.
"You----you----" Song Kun felt the devouring power of the yin moon suddenly intensify, and the protective divine light around his body flickered like a candle in the wind. The Law Power and even his Divine Soul within his body began to become unstable, as if they were about to be forcibly extracted.
He finally panicked, his voice trembling with uncontrollable horror. "You, you really want to—refine me?!"
He couldn't believe that Qi Yun would dare to commit such a heinous act against a fellow True Person within the sect!
This is absolutely outrageous!
Faced with Song Kun's question, filled with fear and disbelief, Qi Yun finally spoke, his tone flat and emotionless, as if stating a simple fact. "Otherwise what?"
Three words, falling lightly.
But like three death knells, they tolled loudly in Song Kun's mind!
A cold glint flashed in Qi Yun's eyes. He slightly raised his right index finger, about to trigger the final change in the great formation, to completely refine Song Kun and eliminate any future trouble.
Just as he was about to unleash his Law Power at his fingertips, a barely perceptible ripple spread through the space around him.
A figure appeared silently beside him, as if it had always been there.
"Junior Brother Qi, please show mercy."
The newcomer, holding a jade-green bamboo staff, was none other than the True Person Southern Dipper.
With his usual gentle smile, he glanced at Song Kun, who was disheveled and exhausted in the midst of the battle, chuckled, and said, "Song Kun acted rashly and provoked you without cause, which is indeed a crime, but it does not warrant death."
Moreover, this is still within the sect; it wouldn't sound good if word got out that fellow disciples are killing each other."
He paused slightly, looked at Qi Yun, and said in a conciliatory tone, "Could you give me some face today and spare him this time?"
The chilling aura that Qi Yun had gathered at his fingertips quietly dissipated.
He knew in his heart that it was unrealistic to directly kill a veteran Foundation Establishment True Person within the Holy Sect, in front of everyone.
The rules of the sect must not be trampled upon.
Moreover, True Person Southern Dipper personally appeared to plead for him, mentioning the phrase "within the sect" in his words, a reminder and a bottom line that he already understood.
In a flash, the suffocating killing intent surrounding Qi Yun receded like a tide. He bowed slightly to True Person Southern Dipper, his tone returning to calm. "Since my master has personally spoken, Qi Yun —will obey without question."
"Hehehe, that's good, that's good."
Seeing that Qi Yun was so sensible, True Person Southern Dipper stroked his beard and smiled, nodding in satisfaction. Then, he turned his gaze to Song Kun, who was still in shock in the formation, and his smile faded, replaced by a hint of solemnity. "Song Kun, you provoked Junior Nephew Qi without cause, causing internal strife in the sect and disturbing the surrounding area. You should be punished."
"You are hereby punished—confined to the Flower Moon Hall to reflect on your mistakes for sixty years."
"I----!"
Upon hearing this, Song Kun's vision went black, and he almost spat out another mouthful of blood.
He had just ended a sixty-year confinement, and less than a day after his release, he was sentenced to another sixty years!
One could feel the majesty beneath True Person Southern Dipper's calm gaze, and the still indifferent stare of Qi Yun beside him.
All his resentment and anger were forced back down his throat.
He clenched his teeth, the thick taste of blood filling his mouth, and finally could only lower his head in despair, squeezing out four words through his teeth. "Song Kun —I obey."
Upon hearing this punishment, Qi Yun's eyes flickered slightly.
A stay-at-home order? It's less of a punishment and more of a form of protection.
True Person Southern Dipper was certain that Song Kun still harbored murderous intent and feared that he might find an excuse to kill him outside.
It has been processed.
Sure enough, True Person Southern Dipper seemed to sense Qi Yun's gaze and slowly added, "In addition, you are required to stay at home for sixty years and cannot be distracted by anything else."
The [Remnant Realm] you were responsible for suppressing, let's hand it over to Junior Nephew Qi for safekeeping. That way you can repent in peace."
"What?!!"
Song Kun suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief!
"----No."
Song Kun gritted his teeth, swallowing back the blood that rose to his throat. His clenched fists trembled slightly from the force of his grip, but he could only helplessly loosen them and shake his head in despair.
"Very well, let's settle this matter here."
True Person Southern Dipper stopped looking at him and instead nodded slightly to Qi Yun. Then, with a wave of his sleeve, an invisible force swept across the heavens and earth. The sound was not loud, but it clearly resounded in every corner of the Great Void Mirror Heaven, carrying the majesty of Foundation Establishment Late Stage Great True Person: "What are you all looking at? Get back to your old man and cultivate properly!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the Divine Sense that had been lurking and peeking from all directions instantly disappeared, like startled birds.
The commotion subsided, and the onlookers' Divine Sense receded like a tide.
"Qi Yun, come with me."
True Person Southern Dipper didn't say much. He gave a greeting and led Qi Yun back to the somewhat desolate Daoist temple located in a secluded green mountain.
True Person Southern Dipper stepped into the courtyard, his gaze sweeping over the familiar scene before turning to Qi Yun. His expression returned to its usual calm as he spoke, "Junior Brother Deng has been reincarnated, and his lineage—has no other disciples to carry on the tradition."
According to the sect's rules, the many items he left behind should have been collected by the sect, put into the treasury, and then given to someone else with a special destiny.
He paused, his gaze falling on Qi Yun's face, carrying a subtle, profound meaning. "However, before he Liberation by Violence and entered reincarnation, he specifically left a divine thought instructing me, stating that there was something he must personally give to you."
Having said that, True Person Southern Dipper gestured towards the old tree in the corner of the courtyard, whose branches had long since withered.
Whoosh!
A condensed crimson light suddenly shot out from inside the seemingly lifeless trunk of the withered tree.
The crimson light gradually receded, revealing what it contained.
Qi Yun up and saw that it was a lotus platform about a foot square.
The lotus platform is not made of jade or metal, but rather has a dark, blood-red color. Its material is neither wood nor stone, and it exudes an ancient aura.
The lotus platform was covered with countless ancient characters, as densely as ant script or insect script, which were extremely fine, twisted and strange.
These words are not static, but flowing slowly, radiating a powerful and awe-inspiring message that touches the soul and a mysterious and profound meaning that points directly to the origin of life.
"This is—" Qi Yun frowned slightly, a hint of uncertainty in his voice, and slowly uttered three words: "The Blood God Scripture?"
True Person Southern Dipper nodded slightly, confirming his guess. Looking at the floating blood-red lotus platform, he slowly said, "That's right, it is the original outline of the Blood God Scripture."
This item was obtained by Junior Brother Deng after surviving numerous close calls in his early years. It is mysterious and unpredictable, yet also extremely dangerous.
He devoted hundreds of years of his life to this task, yet he still could not fully comprehend it.
On the contrary, they were deeply influenced by it.
His words carried a hint of regret and admonition.
He entrusted me to give this item to you. Whether it is a blessing or a curse, fortuitous opportunity or a calamity, is up to you to decide.
However, I must remind you of something,"
True Person Southern Dipper's tone became serious.
"This scripture is no small matter; it involves immense karmic consequences. Whether or not one cultivates it, one must be extremely cautious."
