True Martial World - Chapter 1399: Second Dragon Emperor Relic

"I still needed to gather a few more herbs to refine the Dragon Emperor Relic but now that I have this mysterious fruit, I no longer need to." Yi Yun's eyes shimmered as he revealed a look of great satisfaction.

There was no fixed Dragon Emperor Relic recipe to begin with. As long as one had the appropriate amount of treasured herbs, it could be refined.

Yi Yun's principal herb had been the Abyssal Red Lotus. As for the other rare herbs he had been seeking out, they were only meant to be auxiliary ones. However, with the mysterious herb's fruit added into the mix, the Dragon Emperor Relic that Yi Yun refined would probably have a very different level of effectiveness.

He planned on using the mysterious herb's fruit as the principal herb and the Abyssal Red Lotus as the auxiliary herb. With those two combined, he could refine a supreme-grade Dragon Emperor Relic.

Yi Yun had experience refining a Dragon Emperor Relic. He was even used as a catalyst herb for one; therefore, it was a simply a familiar job he could handle easily.

The world he was in was very silent. Yi Yun was not worried about any external disturbances as he stilled his mind in preparation to refine the second Dragon Emperor Relic.

Yi Yun first took out the Abyssal Red Lotus and some other herbs.

He had already processed the Abyssal Red Lotus through the Herb Nurturing Technique, making it go from a lotus seed to a fire-like lotus flower. Every petal was formed from a roaring abyssal flame.

Although it looked like a beautiful flower, one would be burned to a crisp by the abyssal flame if they tried to touch it without the necessary precautions.

Yi Yun extended his hand and guided the Abyssal Red Lotus until it was floating in front of him. He produced many hand seals, making golden lines appear around the Abyssal Red Lotus. He completely locked the Abyssal Red Lotus's medicinal essence onto the golden lines.

Following that, Yi Yun kept flinging other herbs out, either extracting their juices, removing their root tubers, or extracting their essence.

Finally, Yi Yun took out the mysterious herb's fruit.

The fruit had dark golden patterns on its surface. Upon closer inspection, he could see that these were infinite Dao patterns engraved by nature.

Yi Yun held the fruit and sensed the medicinal powers coming from within.

Following that, Yi Yun began forming seals with the utmost precision.

As wisps of Yuan Qi appeared in Yi Yun's hands like a thread that wrapped around the fruit, the dark golden Dao patterns on the fruit lit up. Drops of golden liquid slowly seeped out of the fruit.

Each golden liquid drop contained tremendous amount of lifeblood. In terms of medicinal strength, it was a lot more potent than the leaves.

Finally, the fruit produced dozens of golden liquid drops. They floated in mid-air before coalescing together, forming a sphere the size of a pigeon's egg. It was a coruscant gold that looked mesmerizing.

The sphere contained the essence of the mysterious herb.

Yi Yun had the sudden urge to immediately devour the golden sphere.

However, he repressed that thought. Refining it into a Dragon Emperor Relic would bring out its medicinal effects even more.

"Ascending Dragon Cauldron, arise!"

Yi Yun cried out softly as the Ascending Dragon Cauldron flew up. It spun in mid-air before the lid automatically opened.

Yi Yun guided with his fingers, sending the prepared herbs along with the golden sphere into the Ascending Dragon Cauldron one by one.

Following that, Yi Yun produced a flame in his palm with a whoosh.

Heretical God Fire Seed!

The Heretical God Fire flew to the bottom of the Ascending Dragon Cauldron, as though it possessed intelligence, and began burning vigorously.

The lid closed and all the herbs were sealed inside the Ascending Dragon Cauldron, burning in the envelopment of the Heretical God Fire. The herbs' medicinal essences began to be extracted one by one before they clashed together and fused.

As for Yi Yun, he watched intently. He constantly monitored the situation in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron with his perception as he controlled the strength of the Heretical God Fire.

Gradually, the quiet valley produced sounds that resembled an airbox. It was as though the entire valley had turned into a furnace as it burned and crackled.

This lasted an entire month.

With a clear hum, the Ascending Dragon Cauldron's lid began to tremble as an indescribable medicinal fragrance emanated from the Ascending Dragon Cauldron.

The tiny waterfall immediately bloomed with flowers as a pleasant echo seemed to be heard from the void.

A glint appeared in Yi Yun's eyes as a look of unconcealed excitement flashed across his exhausted face.

After a month of constant supervision and refinement, the second Dragon Emperor Relic was finally finished!

When Yi Yun opened the lid, a glow burst out from within.

Yi Yun acted with his extended hand, sealing the space around the glow. And then he grabbed it in his outstretched hand.

Amid the glow, he could see an indistinct dragon phantom that struggled within. Following that, the glow revealed its true self. It was a crystalline pill with a surface that resembled jade. But most astonishing of all, the pill was still constantly palpitating like a tiny heart. It seemed to possess true life.

When pills were refined to the most supreme-grade, they could generate a form of intelligence. If the pill escaped, it could even cultivate itself into a spiritual object, no different from the treasured herbs that had gained sentience.

In fact, pills were the fusion of treasured herbs. They were truly the essence of heaven and earth.

The Dragon Emperor Relic had already produced some intelligence, the mark of a true supreme-grade divine pill.

"I just finished refining this pill and am not in the correct condition to consume the Dragon Emperor Relic," thought Yi Yun.

During the consumption of treasured items, some warriors would even first take a bath and burn incense, ensuring that they were completely calm before they consumed any treasured item.

Although Yi Yun did not want to go through that hassle, he still needed to regulate himself for a period of time.

With the pill refined, Yi Yun's taut mind could finally rest. He slowly sat on the ground meditating, enjoying a rare peace for a few days.

Only when Yi Yun felt that he was fully prepared did he slowly open his eyes.

The cultivation of the Dragon Emperor Technique meant that Yi Yun had to expend large amounts of treasured herbs. And this second Dragon Emperor Relic was only enough for Yi Yun to cultivate to the second level of the Dragon Emperor Technique.

But there was a decisiveness in Yi Yun's eyes. Regardless of how hard it would be in the future, he believed he could refine a third, fourth, and even more after refining the second Dragon Emperor Relic.

Without any delay, Yi Yun took out the second Dragon Emperor Relic and swallowed it.

Yi Yun immediately felt like he had swallowed lightning hell.

The wanton and violent strength went from Yi Yun's throat to his stomach. Then, it exploded in his dantian, instantly sending energy to surge through Yi Yun's entire body. It was as though it wanted to completely shatter his body.

Yi Yun's skin instantly turned blood red and, in his nearly translucent skin, he could actually see that his meridians were coursing with blood that resembled burning lava.

Simultaneously, the immense amount of medicinal essence blasted through all of Yi Yun's meridians as they surged. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

And yet, despite being drenched in sweat, Yi Yun felt extremely comfortable.

He could feel that his strength, body, meridians, and dantian were being inundated by the medicinal essence and were rapidly transforming.

True Martial World - Chapter 1398: Celestial Silkworm Forms Cocoon

Only after he cleaved off Myriad God Patriarch's head and confirmed that he could not be anymore dead did Yi Yun slump down. He felt completely enervated.

His act of turning the tables and finally killing Myriad God Patriarch was the ultimate challenge for Yi Yun. It put his mental abilities, decisiveness, and strength to the test.

If he had failed in any aspect, the outcome would have been completely reversed. More than any other thing, absolute strength was what truly gave him control over his fate. He could not just hope that his enemy would always be in a severely injured state or that he would be in an advantageous environment.

It could be said that his final victory over Myriad God Patriarch was all thanks to the array the Godly Monarch Still Destruction set up. If not for that, Yi Yun might have only been able to inflict a grievous injury on Myriad God Patriarch in his final desperate strike. It was the Still Destruction black beams that put Myriad God Patriarch in a position to be killed!

Despite Yi Yun having insights into the Major Destruction laws that matched the Godly Monarch Still Destruction's Still Destruction, he was still heavily injured. This resulted in a black beam brushing past his shoulder at the final moment. A large piece of flesh and blood instantly vanished from his body.

Yi Yun sat down right where he was and took out a few recuperative pills to consume before meditating. He had burned too much of his blood essence and been severely injured by Myriad God Patriarch. If he did not quickly tend to his wounds, it might affect his martial foundations.

At that moment, the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm flew over and coiled on Yi Yun's shoulder.

"You did a great job." Yi Yun smiled as he stroked the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm's tiny head. Then, he fed it a pill.

In fact, even without the pill, the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm would slowly recover from its injuries on its own. It had absorbed a large amount of Yuan Qi from Myriad God Patriarch's dantian. That was enough to nourish it and allow it to rapidly grow.

However, the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm delightfully sniffed taking in the medicinal fragrance of the pill. Then, it swallowed the pill whole.

Thus, the human and snake began recuperating silently.

After his injuries took a turn for the better, Yi Yun walked in front of Myriad God Patriarch's headless corpse. With a grab into thin air, an interspatial ring flew into Yi Yun's hand.

After he injected his perception deep into the interspatial ring, he revealed a look of disappointment. There was not much of value in Myriad God Patriarch's interspatial ring.

In fact, most of Myriad God Patriarch's wealth had been put into the Dragon Emperor Relic and the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. In the end, the Dragon Emperor Relic was consumed by Yi Yun and the Ascending Dragon Cauldron became his as well. Some of his remaining wealth had been discarded during Old Snake's final attack in order to trick Old Snake into thinking that he was dead. Naturally, it was taken by Old Snake.

Of the little that was left, half was used to treat the wounds Old Snake had inflicted on him. Therefore, the remaining bits did not satisfy Yi Yun at all.

If Myriad God Patriarch could read Yi Yun's mind, he might have been so mad that he could come back to life.

But alas, it was still better than nothing. Yi Yun stored away the pills and the two Godly Monarch Immortal Annuli within. Following that, he flicked a piece of the Heretical God Fire from his fingertip onto Myriad God Patriarch's corpse.

As the flames roared, Myriad God Patriarch was finally decimated. Yi Yun made sure to watch as his corpse was reduced to ash.

Following that, Yi Yun walked to the edge of the killing array.

He looked at the black monuments and gave a deep, solemn bow.

"Senior Godly Monarch Still Destruction, although we have never met, the killing array you left behind helped me in slaying my enemy."

Even without the gratitude, Yi Yun was planning on taking the herb. The bow was necessary.

The herb might have been forgotten after the Godly Monarch Still Destruction planted it. However, with the long passage of time, the herb had grown into a supreme-grade divine herb. Yi Yun was in desperate need of large amounts of rare treasured herbs in order to cultivate the Dragon Emperor Technique.

Yi Yun was in no hurry to reap the herb. He was entirely inadequate in his present condition.

He sat quietly outside the array and consumed the recuperative medicine he had been storing away, as he circulated the Dragon Emperor Technique and meditated.

The River of Forgetfulness's water continued showing its effects but they were no longer as pronounced.

Yi Yun spent several months recuperating. The injuries Myriad God Patriarch had inflicted were just too severe. If an average warrior were to sustain such injuries, they would probably not recover even after years, notwithstanding the need to consume large amounts of treasured herbs.

Yi Yun had the Dragon Emperor Technique that tempered his lifeblood and flesh but even so, he could only barely recover. Although his injuries had turned for the better, he remained weakened.

However, Yi Yun could not wait any longer. Over the past few months, Yi Yun studied the Still Destruction array when there was time during his recuperation. He was already confident that he could crack the array.

Yi Yun sighed deeply outside the killing array for a moment before he strode in. He walked straight into the Still Destruction killing array.

From his first step, he immediately triggered the killing array. Black beams started shooting out, but instantly a black mist emerged from Yi Yun's body. Just as the black beams were about to hit Yi Yun, they would suddenly change directions.

As Yi Yun took one step after another, the number of black beams increased. However, Yi Yun did not stop at all. He was like a petrel in the midst of a tempest. From the outside it would look like a harrowing experience but he easily passed through the storm, dodging the black beams at unbelievable angles.

Back when Yi Yun fought Myriad God Patriarch, the black beams would still manage to graze Yi Yun. But now, even before he had fully recovered, he could already walk freely amid the black beams. This was because his understanding of the Still Destruction array had elevated since that battle.

It didn't take too long for him to arrive in front of the divine herb. When he came to a hundred feet away from the divine herb, the black beams suddenly vanished and the Still Destruction array fell silent once again.

Once the danger was gone, the mysterious herb gently swayed in front of Yi Yun, effusing its vast lifeblood powers. Even though he was still standing somewhat of a distance from the herb, Yi Yun could sense that his lifeblood was resonating with it. His blood seemed to be in a state of commotion as his heart raced. It felt like it was about to tear out from his body.

And at that moment, Yi Yun sensed something and turned his head. On his shoulder was the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm. Its eyes were lit up as it stared intently at the mysterious herb. It kept swallowing its saliva.

Yi Yun could sense the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm's desire. As a worldly spirit beast, it probably had better judgment than him when it came to rare herbs.

After some thought, Yi Yun formed a blade with two fingers and gently swiped. He cut up the soil beneath the herb and extracted it whole.

When the herb landed in Yi Yun's hands, the few leaves it had automatically fell off, revealing a red fruit within.

"Eh?"

Yi Yun was slightly alarmed. The fruit was indeed something he had never seen before. Nor did it match his recollections of the divine alchemist's notes.

As for the leaves that had been shed, they were absolute treasures! Yi Yun handed the leaves directly to the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm.

Its eyes were following every action Yi Yun took. He could not help but find it amusing when he saw what it had done.

The moment he placed the few leaves in front of the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm, it immediately pounced to eat them. The leaves were about the same size as the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm and when it bit at the leaves, it wriggled and squirmed with all its might before swallowing the leaves down bit by bit.

Yi Yun carefully observed the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm's condition during this entire process. Although the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm was a worldly spirit beast, it required natural treasures to grow. It was likely able to determine what could and could not be eaten, as well as the food's effects. And since this was a nameless herb, Yi Yun had to be very careful.

The Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm revealed a satisfied expression after it devoured all the leaves. It's chubby body rolled down and Yi Yun caught it in his palm. It even rolled around in pleasure.

"Uh…" Yi Yun raised the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm and shook it gently. He couldn't help but chuckle when he discovered that it looked intoxicated. Its body was wavering and soon, it let out a rhythmic sound of breathing. It had fallen asleep.

But slowly, the breathing sounds turned louder, almost like thunderclaps. Yi Yun could even hear a vague dragon's cry in them.

It was truly fascinating that such a loud sound could be produced by a tiny body like the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm.

Furthermore, Yi Yun sensed that the lifeblood in the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm was constantly rising. Its body swelled up until it looked like it was about to explode.

Yi Yun turned somewhat anxious. However, since the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm had determined that the leaves were edible, it was unlikely they were dangerous.

At that moment, Yuan Qi began to gather from every corner of the pocket world. Gradually, a Yuan Qi cloud formed above the valley.

Following that, the Yuan Qi cloud produced a thread that wrapped around the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm.

The cloud kept producing threads, and eventually the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm was wrapped up in a cocoon. Its breathing also vanished. However, Yi Yun could sense through his perception that the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm was within the cocoon and undergoing a metamorphosis.

The Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm was evolving?

Yi Yun was surprised and thrilled. From the looks of it, the absorption of the Myriad God Patriarch's blood essence and the consumption of the mysterious herb's leaves were enough to push the amount of energy within the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm to a particular level, allowing it to evolve.

The metamorphosis might take a very long time or it could also end very quickly.

Yi Yun felt somewhat speechless seeing the calm cocoon. Although it was called a Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm, it looked more like a snake. Seeing it actually form a cocoon was a strange thing.

After carefully storing away the cocoon formed by the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm, Yi Yun looked back at the mysterious herb. Since the herb was able to facilitate the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm's evolution, its medicinal essence was definitely extraordinary.

He carefully stored the fruit away and left the hill basin.

After flying in the air for a period of time, he landed in a remote valley.

There was a waterfall here and no beasts. There were some birds and critters, and it was a very idyllic scene.

Yi Yun sat on a boulder beside the waterfall and meditated for seven days.

Only when Yi Yun sensed that his mental strength had been restored to its optimum state did he take out the mysterious herb.

Holding it in hand, Yi Yun could sense the surging medicinal essence that the mysterious herb contained. Just the minute amount of medicinal essence he absorbed from making skin contact was enough to give him a sense of comfort.

True Martial World - Chapter 1397: Desperate Struggle

Myriad God Patriarch revealed a maniacal smile when he sealed the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. "Punk, since you triggered the array, we should endure its attacks together. Let's see who will survive!"

Once the black beams were triggered, they would shoot without discrimination. If not for the Ascending Dragon Cauldron's help, Yi Yun would have long been full of holes.

Now, Myriad God Patriarch had set up a spatial array around the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. Yi Yun could forget about going back in.

"Cha! Cha! Cha!"

The black beams shot out from all the statues in unison. Despite the lethal black beams that rained down on them like a tempestuous storm, Myriad God Patriarch still revealed a sinister grin. He believed that the heavily injured Yi Yun would not be able to withstand the barrage of attacks. "I want to see how you die!" Myriad God Patriarch roared.

He was nearly on his last legs. He expended his remaining vitality to dodge the black beams in a fluster.

Black beams tore through his arms and thighs! However, Myriad God Patriarch summoned the last of his strength to protect the critical parts of his body.

Despite being on the borders of death, Myriad God Patriarch diverted a little of his perception to check on Yi Yun. But when he did so, he was flabbergasted.

He saw Yi Yun enveloped in a blurry black mist. The black mist effused an aura of Destruction. Inside the mist was Yi Yun moving around like a fish in water. He flashed around amid the black light. The black beams constantly brushed past his body and the black mist was constantly being abraded, even to the point of causing him injuries; however, none of the black beams managed to penetrate his body.

"How could this be?"

Myriad God Patriarch was alarmed. This was an array set up by a Godly Monarch. How was a punk at the Supremacy realm able to hold his own against it?

And at that moment, Yi Yun looked at Myriad God Patriarch. An intense killing intent flashed in his eyes suddenly. With an angry bellow, his aura rose once again suddenly. His wounds were rapidly healing as well.

The Dragon Emperor Technique was pushed to its limit as Yi Yun burned his blood essence in large quantities!

Even the Dragon Emperor Technique was unable to sustain Yi Yun's crazy enervation of his lifeblood. But at that moment, Yi Yun had no other options!

"You have tried to kill me time and time again but you have always failed. You no longer have any chance. This day a year from now will be your death anniversary! I'll be taking that head of yours!" Yi Yun bellowed, and instantly a gigantic black vortex appeared behind him. The sinister demonic aura seemed to be focused on Yi Yun, making the blood-soaked warrior look like a demonic god.

Yi Yun held the cold-as-ice Mirage Snow sword as he charged towards Myriad God Patriarch amid the overwhelming black beams.

"Yi Yun! Have you gone mad!?"

Myriad God Patriarch was alarmed. Delivering an attack under such circumstances was practically suicide!

"Kill!"

Yi Yun raised his sword above his head as he slashed down ruthlessly!

"You want me dead? I'll use you as a shield!"

Myriad God Patriarch turned crazy as well. He bellowed angrily as a sanguine aura emitted from his body. The sanguine aura seemed to burn along the surface of his body. Even his cloak had been reduced to ashes.

He drew his Bone Corrosion Sword once again. The originally white bone sword was now tainted with a layer of blood-red aura. It let out sharp, ghastly wails. It could attack a person's soul directly and make them lose their mind.

As Myriad God Patriarch pointed his sword at Yi Yun and slashed with it, what seemed like countless specters appeared. They extended their rotting arms to grab Yi Yun. They were of all ages and sexes, but they had gruesome looks and stared at Yi Yun with emptied eyes. It was as though they wanted to drag Yi Yun down and make him one of them.

However, Yi Yun's sword did not waver despite facing all of this. He still slashed down without any regard!

Boom!

Wherever the sword flash passed, obstructions were annihilated regardless if they were an illusion or not!

Under Yi Yun's Major Dao of Destruction, the Bone Corrosion Sword's soul attack was parried. The ghosts wailed as they reduced to nothingness. And when all the phantoms dissipated, Yi Yun's sword tip was already aimed at Myriad God Patriarch.

Not only had Yi Yun burned his blood essence for this strike, he had also infused it with all the nomological insights he had. This was, at present, Yi Yun's strongest attack!

"Boom!"

Yi Yun's strike met Myriad God Patriarch's Bone Corrosion Sword. A dragon's roar was accompanied by the appearance of a True Dragon phantom!

Instantly, Myriad God Patriarch felt as though he had been sealed in a spatial dimension. And in front of him, a True Dragon was flying out of the endless void. It massive body was heading straight for him!

"Scram!"

Myriad God Patriarch struck out with a claw, hitting the True Dragon's head directly!

The powerful reverberation caused the bones in Myriad God Patriarch's arm to nearly fracture. But the True Dragon had dissipated under Myriad God Patriarch's strike. Yi Yun also suffered heavy injuries. His sternum depressed as all his ribs broke, stabbing into his lungs.

He spewed out large mouthfuls of blood as his eyes began to dim.

But this was a moment of life and death. Yi Yun knew that if he were to lose consciousness, all that would remain for him would be a tragic death. At that final instant, he bit the tip of his tongue and used the pain to force himself awake.

The thin black fog enveloped Yi Yun once again. The creation of the Dao of Chaos and the Major Dao of Destruction fused together. The two highest laws in the Universe protected Yi Yun's body, causing all the lethal black beams to fly past Yi Yun's body.

However, Myriad God Patriarch lacked such an ability. The powerful explosive blast made him lose his balance completely!

"Phuah! Phuah!"

Two black beams of light tore through Myriad God Patriarch's body. One of them even brushed across his heart!

Although such an attack was not necessarily fatal, there was the Dao of Destruction contained in the black beam. Myriad God Patriarch's heart began to disintegrate. Large amounts of blow spewed out.

As for the other black beam, it penetrated Myriad God Patriarch's waist and tore through his spine!

Even someone as strong as Myriad God Patriarch would lose mobility in his lower body once his spine broke.

Myriad God Patriarch was nearly at the end of his life after suffering such grievous injuries. And, at that moment, Yi Yun used all that he had in him to strike out with the Mirage Snow sword!

"Puah!"

The Mirage Snow penetrated Myriad God Patriarch's throat as he opened his mouth and eyes wide. His eyes began to glaze over as his tongue hung out.

Myriad God Patriarch stood in his spot with the sword still stabbed through his throat. Large amounts of blood were gushing out the hole from his throat like a leak. His body wavered as he attempted to extend his hand and pull out the Mirage Snow sword. However, he had already lost all his strength. All he could do was stare hatefully and indignantly with his fading eyes at Yi Yun.

But gradually, his vision blurred. The Yi Yun he saw seemed to become distant as he could vaguely make out Yi Yun walking towards him. As for Yi Yun's voice, it seemed to come from another world.

"I said that I would take your head today!"

He felt an excruciating pain as Yi Yun pulled out the Mirage Snow sword. Following that, Myriad God Patriarch saw everything spinning around him and finally, he saw his own body.

Up to the moment of his death, he still refused to believe that there would come a day when he would be pushed to such a wretched state before being beheaded by a Supremacy-realm junior. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

True Martial World - Chapter 1396: Internecine Outcome

However, what caught Myriad God Patriarch by surprise was that Yi Yun appeared to be oblivious to the blood claw above his head. He continued to slash at him in an indomitable fashion.

Not only that, but suddenly, Yi Yun's aura surged once again as he burned even more blood essence!

Roar!

A dragon's roar suddenly emitted from Yi Yun's body. And at that moment, like a True Dragon, he slashed at Myriad God Patriarch with unstoppable might.

Even Myriad God Patriarch's expression could not help but change when he saw the oncoming strike!

Yi Yun had still not shown all his potential!

Boom! With a tumultuous explosion, Myriad God Patriarch's claws and Yi Yun's sword collided. Immediately, like an avalanche, the ground cracked into countless fissures as space itself quaked. Massive spatial turbulences appeared.

If the valley was not protected by an array formation, it would have long been flattened by the terrifying Yuan Qi collisions.

Even so, the valley seemed to be cleansed by the storms. Boulders shattered and all vegetation was wiped out. Only the divine herb remained unharmed due to the killing array's protection.

At that moment, Yi Yun had already flown backward, slamming heavily into the cliff. His mouth and body were covered in blood and there were about eight wounds ripped through his chest. He was bleeding profusely.

This was only possible because Yi Yun had cultivated in the Dragon Emperor Technique and had a powerful body. If he were any ordinary warrior, his sternum would have collapsed, destroying all his innards.

Yi Yun coughed vigorously twice as he stood up by using the Mirage Snow snow as support.

This strike had severely injured Yi Yun!

But Myriad God Patriarch was not in any better shape!

The worst problem he faced was his original injuries. Now with the accumulation of new and old wounds, he had no idea how much total injury he suffered from. After clashing with Yi Yun, the injuries his body suffered from seemed to put him on the brink of a relapse.

Never did he imagine that he would be sent retreating several steps by a Supremacy-realm junior like Yi Yun. Furthermore, the laws contained within the unbridled sword Qi were not something he could deal with.

Yi Yun's sword had left behind a long gaping wound in Myriad God Patriarch's chest. Furthermore, it carried a destructive power that had encroached into his wounds. It was tearing his apart body from within.

Myriad God Patriarch grimaced but when he saw Yi Yun, he suffused a sneer.

"Yi Yun, I admit that I have underestimated you. If you were to continue maturing for centuries or a millennia, you might be my equal. But it is not so now. You clashed with me at the risk of suffering heavy injuries. Do you think the few injuries you left on me are of any significance? The person who will die today is still you!"

Myriad God Patriarch looked at Yi Yun's pale complexion as he said this with a sneer. Yi Yun's injuries from the clash were worse than his.

"The Ascending Dragon Cauldron is mine after all. And I will use you as an herb catalyst as I originally planned. I'll throw you into the Ascending Dragon Cauldron and refine you into the Dragon Emperor Relic so as to aid my reaching a new apex!" said Myriad God Patriarch happily. The way he looked at Yi Yun was like he was looking at a supreme-grade spirit pill.

However, Myriad God Patriarch frowned when he saw Yi Yun's reaction. For Yi Yun's expression remained calm. There was even a tinge of mockery in his eyes.

This gave Myriad God Patriarch's heart a jolt. He immediately felt a sense of foreboding. Was Yi Yun up to one of his tricks once again!?

However, Myriad God Patriarch quickly swept his surroundings. He did so extremely meticulously but there were no strange phenomena around him. Nor was there any other hidden array formation that Yi Yun could make use of.

But immediately following that, Myriad God Patriarch's expression changed. He could clearly sense that there was something in his body!

Myriad God Patriarch immediately circulated his Yuan Qi but when he drew on it, he felt an excruciating pain coming from his dantian!

The pain left Myriad God Patriarch trembling. He could not help but let out a painful growl from his throat.

He even felt like his dantian was being bitten by countless worms. The lifeblood in him was rapidly draining.

"Little bastard, you…" Myriad God Patriarch suddenly looked up at Yi Yun. He immediately knew that Yi Yun had done something to him. There was a snake inside his dantian!

Back when Yi Yun released his sword flash, a tiny snake had been hidden within. The true purpose of the strike was to deliver and protect the snake well! The snake was of extraordinary grade and it possessed the bloodline of a divine beast. As for Myriad God Patriarch who was covered in wounds, the snake had taken the opportunity to bore into his body under the sword flash's guise.

The Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm loved consuming natural treasures. And a Divine Lord's body just happened to be tempered for long periods of time and had consumed countless herbal treasures. Their lifeblood and the Yuan Qi in their dantians were extremely beneficial to the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm.

At that moment, the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm was like a ravenous Tao Tie. It opened its mouth wide and began consuming Myriad God Patriarch's lifeblood essence ravenously.

Not only that, it also gathered its strength in a bid to charge out of Myriad God Patriarch's dantian.

Myriad God Patriarch let out a demented bellow as his Yuan Qi circulated to the limit. He endured the cracking pain of his dantian as he injected immense amounts of energy into it.

"Get lost!"

The thick meridians around Myriad God Patriarch's dantian exploded. A tremendous force gathered into Myriad God Patriarch's dantian, causing energy to well up like a volcano. Then it suddenly erupted, spewing the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm out.

This blast left the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm heavily injured as well. Its blood-covered body was sent flying out. However, the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm appeared delighted despite its heavy injuries. The large amount of Yuan Qi it had consumed were more than sufficient for it to recuperate its wounds.

Upon seeing the seven-colored snake come out, Myriad God Patriarch's eyes seemed to crack. He was just about to pursue when a black flame, one that blotted out the sky, blanketed him!

It was the Heretical God Fire!

Yi Yun had suffered heavy injuries and all his energy was infused into the Heretical God Fire, causing the terrifying flames to roar into the sky. Even though Ling Xie'er wasn't around, the Heretical God Fire's power had not declined much!

If this were any other time, such a flame would be insufficient to injure Myriad God Patriarch. But under repeated assaults, he ended up being burned into a wretched state.

"Yi Yun!" Myriad God Patriarch's body convulsed as his lips trembled incessantly. A great deal of his aura had diminished. His new wounds and old wounds were completely taking their toll on him.

The flames did not retreat and there were a series of consecutive explosions. When he heard that sound, Myriad God Patriarch felt his scalp tingle. He knew very well that Yi Yun had thrown out the Thunderclap Explosive Firebeads again. The twelve blood-colored stone monuments immediately activated, sending out their black beams!

Such terrifying black beams left Myriad God Patriarch shuddering. However, he knew if he just focused on dodging again, he would end up being killed by Yi Yun!

He ignored the black beams and suddenly held his palms together. Instantly, the spatial array around the Ascending Dragon Cauldron tightened, sealing the Ascending Dragon Cauldron completely!

How could he allow Yi Yun to hide in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron once again? Similarly, he would not suffer this trick a second time.

True Martial World - Chapter 1395: Spatial Cage

In fact, Myriad God Patriarch really had no need to trap the cauldron. Yi Yun was actually quite slow when controlling the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. However, after receiving a sneak attack by Yi Yun, Myriad God Patriarch did everything to the extreme.

"Little bastard, you have harmed me time and time again. I'd rather give up this Ascending Dragon Cauldron than let you live a second longer!" Myriad God Patriarch's eyes suffused deep hatred.

As he spoke, Myriad God Patriarch began forming seals in all seriousness. The space around the Ascending Dragon Cauldron began to slowly distort until gradually, a black hole appeared behind the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. And the black hole was filled with chaotic spatial and temporal fragments. The turbulent air surges emitted a cadaveric aura.

The effort was very demanding on Myriad God Patriarch. His face twisted into a grimace and he had no choice but to consume another pill.

However, Myriad God Patriarch had a delighted smile after that. "I want you experience an insufferable existence to the point of you pleading for death!"

Yi Yun also sensed that something was amiss as he hid inside the Ascending Dragon Cauldron.

When he discovered the black hole behind the Ascending Dragon Cauldron, his scalp tingled.

This was… a chaotic alternate space-time dimension!

In the 12 Empyrean Heavens, throughout the endless cosmos, there existed numerous alternate space-time dimensions. And a number of them were extremely chaotic, having no concept of time and space. It was very difficult to exit once one found themselves inside.

Back when he left the Tian Yuan world to head for the Ten Thousand Fey Empyrean Heaven, Yi Yun and Lin Xintong were separated due to a nearby chaotic space-time passageway. Yi Yun understood personally the terror such chaotic space-time dimensions posed.

If a mighty figure was well-versed in spatial dimension laws, they could use such an alternate space-time dimension for themselves after discovering one. It could even be used to construct a spacial cage!

Clearly, Myriad God Patriarch was planning on throwing Yi Yun as well as the cauldron into the chaotic alternate dimension. Once he was trapped inside, he would float in there for eternity. There would be nothing left for him other than to die a withering death.

"This Myriad God Patriarch has really gone crazy." Yi Yun originally believed that Myriad God Patriarch cherished the Ascending Dragon Cauldron too greatly to endanger it. He never expected that Myriad God Patriarch would get to the point where he would give up the Ascending Dragon Cauldron in order to kill him.

From the looks of it, his constant meddling against Myriad God Patriarch had dealt enough suffering on him. It caused the Myriad God Patriarch to resort to such a desperate measure.

"I'll be a sitting duck if I continue to remain in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron," thought Yi Yun.

He had consumed the River of Forgetfulness's water and absorbed the silkworm's blood. His lifeblood had strengthened and his body had become more powerful. Therefore, he had decisively attacked when he discovered that Myriad God Patriarch was recuperating.

The sneak attacked had probably worsened Myriad God Patriarch's injuries. At that moment, Myriad God Patriarch appeared to be the weakest he had ever been and he was at his strongest!

"Myriad God Patriarch, it's time to end this vendetta between us."

Yi Yun's eyes immediately suffused a firm conviction.

Meanwhile, Myriad God Patriarch was in the final stages of forming his seals.

He looked at the Ascending Dragon Cauldron with bloodshot eyes. He had once placed hopes on it as something that would allow him to reach a higher state in the martial path, but his hopes had been destroyed by Yi Yun. Now, he wanted to personally ruin the Ascending Dragon Cauldron, along with Yi Yun within.

The feelings he experienced were truly mixed.

However, no matter what regrets he felt, they did not deter him in any way. On the contrary, he was even more focused. He wanted to finish his final seal and throw the Ascending Dragon Cauldron into the space-time passage.

But at that moment, the Ascending Dragon Cauldron suddenly trembled violently. With a bang, the Ascending Dragon Cauldron's lid suddenly opened as a loud dragon's roar was heard. A figure flew out from the cauldron.

The figure was none other than Yi Yun!

Myriad God Patriarch was immediately delighted the moment he saw Yi Yun appear.

If Yi Yun had insisted on hiding in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron, he would have no choice but to throw the Ascending Dragon Cauldron as well as Yi Yun into the black hole. Now that Yi Yun had appeared, he had basically given Myriad God Patriarch an opportunity to take the cauldron for himself.

"Good, very good. Yi Yun, it helps me out quite a lot if you are willing to throw yourself at death!" said Myriad God Patriarch coldly.

Without the killing array or the Ascending Dragon Cauldron, what gave Yi Yun the confidence to fight him?

"Little bastard, you are only capable of launching sneak attacks. I will make you understand the huge, unbridgeable gap between us!" said Myriad God Patriarch.

And at that moment, Yi Yun already sensed that the space surrounding the Ascending Dragon Cauldron had undergone changes. It appeared as though the cauldron now existed in a separate spatial dimension.

Myriad God Patriarch had used spatial-dimension laws to seal the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. He would not allow Yi Yun to escape into it anymore.

"Little bastard, go to hell!"

Although Yi Yun's cultivation was nothing in the eyes of Myriad God Patriarch, he still took the initiative to strike!

His hands formed claws as they swooped down at Yi Yun like an owl. Before he had even arrived, a ghastly wail was heard. Instantly, the surroundings were dyed in a blood-red color.

Simultaneously, the space around Yi Yun seemed sealed. The gravitational force within that space seemed to increase by more than ten times. His every action was slowed and impeded. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

Just like a mighty eagle used all its strength when capturing a rabbit, Myriad God Patriarch was bent on taking Yi Yun's life the moment he struck!

Yi Yun immediately experienced an intense threat when facing Myriad God Patriarch's attack!

However, he was already mentally prepared to fight him when he came out.

Yi Yun's gaze was solemn. The 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence appeared behind him once again. At the same time, the Mirage Snow sword in his hand seemed to turn heavy. Both Yin and Yang laws were augmented on the sword as an unimaginably terrifying aura surged from Yi Yun.

Yi Yun did not hesitate to burn his blood essence when facing Myriad God Patriarch's killer blow!

Instantly, there was a whistling sound coming from Yi Yun's surrounding space. It was as though the space itself could not withstand the powers and laws that Yi Yun's body exuded. As for the spatial dimension laws that Myriad God Patriarch had inflicted on him, they were rapidly being shattered.

Yi Yun sensed the gravitational force vanish. He escaped that hindering force as the entire region around him turned black. The color was not pure black but had countless Dao patterns circulating within. It was extremely profound.

At the next moment, Yi Yun had already charged at Myriad God Patriarch and slashed with his sword!

The strike, including the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence within, gathered all Yi Yun's strength and laws at the sword's tip. It formed a point, and this point lit up within the black space. It turned increasingly glaring as it expanded!

Finally, it smashed down at Myriad God Patriarch like a radiant sun!

Upon seeing this strike, Myriad God Patriarch experienced a jolt in his heart.

He never expected Yi Yun's strength to have reached such a state!

However, no matter how talented Yi Yun was, there was a substantial gap between him and Myriad God Patriarch. Today, death was the only outcome for Yi Yun!

Myriad God Patriarch's eyes flashed as a gigantic blood claw immediately appeared above Yi Yun's head as it came swiping downwards.

He believed that Yi Yun could only turn around and defend. But at the moment of his defense, a second claw would arrive in front of Yi Yun. That way, Yi Yun would be heavily injured even if he survived!

True Martial World - Chapter 1394: Injuries Worsen

The Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm was a spirit being that could transform into a dragon, so it had a natural resonance with the Dragon Emperor blood in Yi Yun. Back when Yi Yun broke through the Supremacy realm, he had been augmented by it's blood.

All of Yi Yun's lifeblood surged into his meridians as he felt like there was a roaring river churning ceaselessly in his body. It produced rumbling sounds as his strength began to soar!

Moments later, Yi Yun felt as though his visceral organs and all his meridians were burning.

With things reaching this fever pitch, Yi Yun began circulating the Dragon Emperor Technique.

With the cultivation technique's circulation, the Dragon Emperor bloodline in Yi Yun burned even more intensely. As for Yi Yun's body, it turned red like molten metal. It was being tempered many times over.

And to bolster this effect, Yi Yun drank the River of Forgetfulness's water.

…

Boom!

Myriad God Patriarch's sword beam struck the last black beam. He spewed a mouthful of fresh blood as he retreated a few steps back and stumbled to get his footing.

At that moment, Myriad God Patriarch was covered in flowing blood. His face was sallow and his breathing was spasmodic. His entire body felt like it could collapse at any time.

Myriad God Patriarch heaved vigorously as he took out a herbal bottle and poured a pill into his mouth. Following that, his face flushed with an abnormal ruddiness. His breathing also gradually stabilized.

Immediately following that, he circulated his Yuan Qi and began purging the Dao of Destruction sealed in his body. After the Dao of Destruction entered his body, it prevented him from healing his injuries and caused him to bleed incessantly. Furthermore, it was eating away at his meridians.

That was the domineering aspect of the Dao of Destruction.

Myriad God Patriarch had already realized by this point that the killing array and the herbal garden were definitely not left behind by an ordinary ancient expert. It was very likely the work of a Godly Monarch!

Yi Yun had actually used such a killing array to try and assassinate him. This infuriated Myriad God Patriarch so much that he nearly cracked his teeth from clenching them so tight.

However, the most important thing to Myriad God Patriarch at the moment was recuperating from his injuries. If he continued allowing the Dao of Destruction to wreak wanton destruction in his body, he would soon fail to even repress his old injuries from relapsing.

Myriad God Patriarch could only forcibly calm his mind and consume another pill. Such potent recovery pills left considerable side effects on a warrior but he had no other choice. Upon thinking of this, his hatred for Yi Yun deepened again.

At that moment, Myriad God Patriarch suddenly sensed a sliver of danger.

He suddenly opened his eyes as a sword flash seemed to transmit out of an ancient space. It contained an aura of extreme coldness and the burning flames of a blazing sun simultaneously. And it was cleaving down at him!

"Yi Yun!"

Myriad God Patriarch instantly saw Yi Yun standing in midair with a frost sword.

The little bastard had actually come out of the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. He was trying to sneak attack him while he was recuperating!

Yi Yun's eyes were filled with killing intent. At that moment, a black vortex appeared out of thin air behind him. The demonic flames soared into the sky as they emitted a destructive aura.

With the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence's augmentation, the sword that represented time tore through the shackles of time and space as Yi Yun slashed it down at Myriad God Patriarch!

At that moment, the space between Yi Yun and Myriad God Patriarch distorted because of that strike. The surrounding vegetation instantly lived to the end of its lifespan and was then promptly returned to the earth.

As for the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence, it seemed like it could devour the entire world. The gigantic vortex that had formed behind Yi Yun blotted out the sky.

"Go to hell!" Yi Yun let out an angry bellow.

Strike when a person was down! How could Yi Yun miss such an opportunity when he noticed that Myriad God Patriarch was recuperating?

Myriad God Patriarch's eyes widened. He realized that he had underestimated Yi Yun, as he sensed that this strike allowed Yi Yun to match ordinary Divine Lords!

Back when Yi Yun had been captured by him, he did not have such a powerful aura. However, when he came out of the Ascending Dragon Cauldron, his aura had clearly increased. It formed a stark contrast.

Against Yi Yun's sword flash, Myriad God Patriarch had no choice but to prematurely end his recuperation. All his Yuan Qi stirred as he struck out with his palm to meet Yi Yun's sword.

Boom!

Instantly, Yuan Qi collided as the two forces stirred in the valley like a storm. The terrifying commotion instantly spread throughout the entire herbal garden.

Myriad God Patriarch barely blocked the strike but after doing so, the color in his face drained. His body could not help but convulse slightly.

As he had terminated his recuperation midway, the Dao of Destruction that he had repressed instantly reared its head again. Combined with him drawing out his power to deliver the strike, it caused his injuries to worsen again!

It was all because of that darn Yi Yun!

And at that moment, Yi Yun had been sent flying backward due to the Yuan Qi collision. His lifeblood was in tumultuous chaos but after cultivating in the Dragon Emperor Technique, his body was extremely strong. He almost instantly calmed his lifeblood.

And when he saw Myriad God Patriarch in such a state, Yi Yun was delighted. He did not hesitate to strike out again.

Another slash!

Myriad God Patriarch's eyes seemed to crack as he forcefully gathered Yuan Qi and endured the excruciating pain to strike out with his palm again.

Bam!

The sword flash tore through Myriad God Patriarch's protective Yuan Qi as an unimaginable pain bore into his body. His eyes nearly bled as he let out a furious bellow. His lifeblood was in chaos and he had to forcefully gather his aura again.

In order to kill Yi Yun, Myriad God Patriarch could only push through his injuries. As a patriarch of a sect, it was an insult for him to be reduced to such a state. First, he had been severely injured by Old Snake, then injured by the Still Destruction array, and finally damaged by Yi Yun. Now, he was willing to be left with a permanent injury just to kill Yi Yun!

A gigantic blood-colored palm materialized in front of Myriad God Patriarch. It seemed like it could render the world asunder.

However, just as the palm struck towards Yi Yun with indomitable momentum, a scene that left Myriad God Patriarch roaring with anger happened again. He saw Yi Yun being sucked into the Ascending Dragon Cauldron without turning his head after his strike!

Yi Yun had retreated back into the Ascending Dragon Cauldron after his sneak attack!

"Boom!"

Myriad God Patriarch's palm struck the Ascending Dragon Cauldron but only managed to make it tremble and sink into the ground. The resonating hum from the cauldron echoed throughout the pocket world.

But other than that, he had failed to leave a single injury on Yi Yun.

"What a coward! Coward!" Myriad God Patriarch's killing intent raged as his lips trembled. He had led a life of being cunning and orchestrating great plots. But against Yi Yun, he felt like he was losing his mind to anger. Yi Yun was just too deplorable!

"Do you think I can't do a thing to you while you are hiding in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron? How naive!"

Myriad God Patriarch cast his hateful gaze at the Ascending Dragon Cauldron.

Indeed, the Ascending Dragon Cauldron was extremely sturdy. It was very difficult to destroy. At the very least, Myriad God Patriarch did not possess that ability.

At that moment, Myriad God Patriarch extended his hand and grabbed empty space. Immediately, dozens of formless metallic chains appeared around the Ascending Dragon Cauldron, sealing it in its spot.

True Martial World - Chapter 1393: Turning the Situation Around

"I must recognize that you are also a genius, a genius that enjoys an immense light from providence, but in the end you are destined to be a set of bones under my feet."

As Myriad God Patriarch spoke, he continued tightening the spatial array formation.

This junior was once his mental demon. To him, Yi Yun was someone he had to take very seriously. Even though Yi Yun was firmly in his grasp, he did not go easy at all.

He had heard of many geniuses like Yi Yun who were favored by providence. Enemies of such geniuses would usually be faced with various obstacles. For example, the founder of a mighty empire would encounter countless assassinations and plots against them. But anyone that thought to harm them only ended up dead.

Myriad God Patriarch believed he too was favored by providence. If he killed Yi Yun, he could take the light that shone on Yi Yun for himself. It was even possible for him to become a Godly Monarch in the future.

With a humming sound, a bone sword appeared in Myriad God Patriarch's hand.

The bone sword was entirely white in color and its design was strange. The sharp edge was like a claw and the blade had a curvature. It suffused a rich deathly aura.

"If you were to be killed by this Bone Corrosion Sword, not only would all your flesh rot away, even your lifeblood would be fully absorbed. Your soul would be corroded by the cadaveric aura and you would finally become my slave." Myriad God Patriarch injected his Yuan Qi into the Bone Corrosion Sword as his blade trembled in response. It let out an indescribably sinister sound that was like something from hell itself.

Following that, Myriad God Patriarch walked towards Yi Yun. The Bone Corrosion Sword emitted a cold white light as he held it high up, aiming straight at Yi Yun's head before cleaving down.

At that moment, Yi Yun sensed an extremely strong sense of danger. It was similar or even more intense than the pressing danger he experienced back when he was being pursued by the Black-armored Demon God in the Tian Yuan World.

Back then, Yi Yun still had a chance of escaping, but now all his energy was sealed. He could not use his Yuan Qi and his body was confined spatially, preventing him from even moving. All he could do was watch helplessly as the sword came down at him.

However, Myriad God Patriarch did not see despair or horror on Yi Yun's face. Instead, it was a look of still serenity.

Before he could even wonder why, Myriad God Patriarch suddenly sensed an extremely strong threat coming from behind him!

Myriad God Patriarch turned around suddenly and cleaved with his sword.

The sword's might was terrifying, something that Myriad God Patriarch believed was enough to tear Yi Yun apart. Regardless of what the threat behind him was, his sword was completely capable of withstanding it.

However, Myriad God Patriarch never expected that when his sword beam struck the black light, it would be instantly engulfed upon contact. The black light continued coming at him.

Myriad God Patriarch's protective Yuan Qi was as strong as paper against the black light. It was instantly shattered, but Myriad God Patriarch was able to prevent his vital spots from being struck. Only his shoulder had been penetrated.

A terrifying aura immediately surged wantonly through Myriad God Patriarch's meridians. His wound bled profusely as a black mist lingered around it. It was like a mini black hole.

And at that moment, more black beams were being shot out.

It was the array formation! The valley's killing array had been triggered!

As Myriad God Patriarch dodged the array beams, he saw a seven-colored snake blazing around the valley's array formation like a seven-colored meteor.

"What is that!?"

Myriad God Patriarch immediately knew that it was the seven-colored snake that had triggered the array formation. And the snake was definitely related to Yi Yun.

Yi Yun had hidden himself in order to lure him into the killing array. However, he had detected Yi Yun's location ahead of time.

He had then sealed Yi Yun, severing any routes of escape for Yi Yun. Yi Yun was given no chance to pull any tricks. Little did he know that Yi Yun had left a tiny snake outside as a contingency.

To make matters worse, Myriad God Patriarch also sensed that his spatial array had been destroyed by the black beams, freeing Yi Yun.

Each one of the black beams that filled the sky possessed the ability to cause terrifying damage.

Yi Yun had instructed the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm to trigger the array formation so as to have the stone monuments open their eyes and fire their beams, but he never expected the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm to trigger so many at once.

"Come back now! Dude, I was almost made into a sieve!"

The black beams attacked without any discrimination. Under such an intense barrage of attacks, Yi Yun was also forced into an awkward predicament. Thankfully, he was skilled in the Destruction laws and was able to handle them a little better than Myriad God Patriarch. He immediately beckoned for the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm's return and summoned the Ascending Dragon Cauldron.

Yi Yun had no chance of victory against Myriad God Patriarch. All he could do was hide in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron.

Myriad God Patriarch's eyes suffused redness. He never expected that despite being cautious and thorough, he would still fall for Yi Yun's schemes!

He charged towards Yi Yun but the black beams did not cease. He was forced to turn around to parry them.

Myriad God Patriarch watched helplessly as Yi Yun entered the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. As for the Ascending Dragon Cauldron, it remained unharmed despite being bombarded by the black beams!

"Little bastard!"

Myriad God Patriarch's hate raged inside him like a tidal wave. Yi Yun was clearly a weakling who could only run from him, but still he suffered repeatedly at Yi Yun's hands.

At that moment, Yi Yun's voice sounded from the Ascending Dragon Cauldron.

"Old Fellow, it's best you take care of yourself first."

As that was said, beads were suddenly thrown out from the Ascending Dragon Cauldron by Yi Yun. Myriad God Patriarch focused his eyes on them and noticed that they were Thunderclap Explosive Firebeads!

A Thunderclap Explosive Firebead was an array bead used to kill enemies. Its offensive strength was nothing to speak of. It was not even enough to deal with Dao Palace realm warriors. Yi Yun had obtained them from the interspatial ring of a warrior he killed. The beads were completely useless to him and he had nearly thrown them away. But now, they were being put to full use.

Dozens of Thunderclap Explosive Firebead exploded simultaneously!

Crackle!

The entire space was deluged by a sea of flames. Yi Yun did not hold any hopes that the beads would do a thing to Myriad God Patriarch. He had thrown the Thunderclap Explosive Firebeads straight at the Still Destruction Killing Array. The Thunderclap Explosive Firebead's flames and lightning inundated the blood-colored stone monuments, activating the killing array once again!

Cha! Cha! Cha!

The twelve stone monuments began shooting out black Still Destruction beams of light crazily! The number of beams shot out was more than ten times the number caused by the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm!

As for Myriad God Patriarch, he was not at his best. He was already injured and under the assault of the black beams, he almost had a mental breakdown.

There was just too many! He could not deal with them at all!

As for Yi Yun, he was hiding in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. He could hear the clamorous clangs of the beams striking the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. Even the Ascending Dragon Cauldron shook forcefully under the black beam storm.

Of course, these were already extremely satisfying to Yi Yun. He used a wisp of his perception to study the situation outside the Ascending Dragon Cauldron.

He saw Myriad God Patriarch dodging amid the black beams, looking pathetic.

Realizing how nasty Yi Yun was, Myriad God Patriarch felt a surge of blood flow backwards to his head.

His hair had been burnt off by a black beam. His remaining hair scattered down. He looked terrible.

What were these black beams!?

Myriad God Patriarch was appalled by the black beams. He did not know where he was, nor did he know who the person who had set up the array formation was.

The black beams were not something he could fully defend against even at his peak. Even the average Divine Lord would perish under the black beams' assault!

How did a mere array formation possess such terrifying power?

But Myriad God Patriarch did not have the luxury of time to think it through. The overwhelming black beams brought with them grave killing intent. Myriad God Patriarch had no time to tend to his injuries. He didn't even have time to take a breath.

"Yi Yun!" Myriad God Patriarch let out an angry bellow. His outer calf had been penetrated by a black beam. Flesh the size of a palm had vanished instantly, replaced by nothingness!

Feeling the excruciating pain in his calf, Myriad God Patriarch felt a chill down his back. The black beams contained terrifying Still Destruction laws which could destroy everything they touched!

And at that moment, Yi Yun was sitting inside the cauldron while the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm lay in front of him.

He could sense that although Myriad God Patriarch was finding it difficult to defend against the black beams, it was unlikely that he would really die.

The black beams could not continue ceaselessly. Soon, they would stop.

"This darn bastard managed to chase me here. Tomorrow, he might be able to keep chasing me to another area. I can't feel at ease as long as he is alive. Now that he is at his weakest, I have to take this chance to kill him once and for all!"

Yi Yun's eyes blazed with killing intent. He was bent on killing Myriad God Patriarch after being threatened twice by the old bastard!

If he were to allow Myriad God Patriarch to leave safely, Myriad God Patriarch would quickly recover from his injuries. He would only come back stronger than he was now. When that happened, he would only prove more dangerous for Yi Yun.

The best method to deal with an enemy was to ensure that he was dead!

"Little Nine, lend me some of your blood!" Yi Yun looked at the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm and asked.

Upon hearing that its blood was needed, the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm immediately shrinked its head back. However, it was also reasonable. It knew that the enemy outside was very dangerous and that Yi Yun was no match for him.

After a moment of hesitation, the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm steeled its mind and made its decision. It nodded its tiny head as though it was looking at death calmly in the face.

Upon seeing this, Yi Yun was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. "Are you serious? I'm just borrowing a bit of your blood and you look as though I'm taking your life. Didn't I take some of your blood in the past? When did I not repay it?"

Previously, Yi Yun had fed the fire seed he had obtained from the Nine Li Magus Empire to the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm. Yi Yun was definitely not stingy towards such a natural treasure.

Although extracting the blood of the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm harmed the little fellow's lifeblood, it would only have its lifeblood restored and strengthened after eating more treasures. To the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm, there were many benefits in following Yi Yun. It would definitely experience growth faster than if it were to go it alone. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

Yi Yun gently squeezed the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm's body and extracted its blood. It was hard to do, as the little fellow looked like it was suffering a huge grievance as it clenched its teeth and did not make a sound.

Only when Yi Yun promised it that he would feed him with even more treasured herbs did the little fellow beam.

After extracting a few drops of the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm's blood, Yi Yun infused it straight into his body.

Instantly, the Dragon Emperor bloodline in him boiled.
