Chapter 1428 – The Power of Manifesting Mortality, the Might of Reincarnation
“Die! Die! Die!”
The gathered immortals all fought like mad, their murderous intent piercing the firmament as they surrounded Su Yi.
All manner of immortal treasures whooshed through the air with enough destructive power to easily destroy any other Transcendent.
No one dared hold back!
Su Yi’s gaze was steady, without the slightest shift in his expression.
Within his body, the Nascent Divinity shaped like the Sword of the Nine Hells clanged, then practically boiled over with the overflowing power of his cultivation base.
He was now circulating the full extent of his Manifesting Mortality Realm circulation!
Clang——!
The Sword of the Human Realm hummed, like the sound of the Dao echoing throughout creation. Its simple blade buzzed with excitement.
“Allow me to show you the power of Manifesting Mortality and… the might of reincarnation!”
As Su Yi whispered, he shook his sleeves.
Boom!
The Sword of the Human Realm shot through the air, bringing with it far-encompassing sword intent.
A mysterious reincarnation pool arose within the sword intent, bearing a strange power of reincarnation.
At that moment, everyone felt their soul palpitate, as if they’d been sucked uncontrollably into an endless abyss.
The gathered experts were all revenants, and no matter their cultivation base, all of them trembled upon witnessing this.
The Impermanence of Rebirth!
The attack was different from last time. It was as the true reincarnation pool had manifested within the Human Realm, woven out of the mysterious light of reincarnation. It was terrifying enough to make one’s heart palpitate with terror.
A heaven-shaking impact rang out, and the revenants’ encirclement broke. Several of them were even sent flying!
Su Yi now seemed like a sovereign of the Netherworld. He displayed the cycle of reincarnation through his Dao of the Sword, and a waterfall of chaotic power flowed around him. It was as if both heaven and earth had been plunged into the darkness of the Netherworld.
“Deliverance of the Far Shore!”
Su Yi turned the edge of his sword, and countless streaks of sword intent surged forth, manifesting bright red flowers that blanketed heaven and earth, like a path paved of flames illuminating the darkness.
The Path of Fire!
It guided the souls of the dead to the next world!
Several immortal revenants couldn’t escape in time, instead falling into the Path of the Far Shore. The fiery Flowers of the Far Shore enveloped them, reducing them to ash.
“The Inescapable Sea of Bitterness!”
Su Yi’s sleeves billowed around him as he slashed the air.
Heaven and earth seemed to split, and a boundless Sea of Bitterness surged forth. There was no end to it, and its waters churned with the power of Oblivion. It was enough to envelop even the gods.
“No——!”
An immortal revenant was swept into the Sea of Bitterness. He suddenly seemed as fragile as floating duckweed; the turbid waters suppressed and obliterated him completely.
His terrified shriek still echoed throughout heaven and earth.
It wasn’t cold, yet the crowd trembled.
Too terrifying!
Su Yi now displayed sword intent like the Six Paths of Reincarnation. It was strange, taboo, and terrifying beyond imagination.
Dozens of immortal revenants were working together, but they still couldn’t suppress him. Instead, his sword intent blocked and neutralized their immortal treasures and killer weapons one by one!
As he fought, Su Yi displayed the power of the six paths, becoming the revenants’ worst nightmare and bringing about endless death and darkness.
“Adjudication of the Six Paths!”
Su Yi leaped into the air, his sword suppressing the sky.
Boom!
A vision of the Infernal Palace appeared between heaven and earth, manifesting the Bureaus of Adjudication and numerous other ancient buildings, including the Bureaus of Devas, Beasts, Hungry Ghosts, and Asuras.
The Path of the Yellow Springs and the Naihe Bridge connected the various manifested scenes.
Those who saw this felt as if they’d arrived in the Netherworld, and that they were departed souls about to face judgment. Terror and dread arose from deep within their hearts.
“This is bad!” Many of the revenants looked stricken, and they moved further away.
Revenants feared nothing more than the power of reincarnation!
When this strike descended, several more immortal revenants met with disaster, dying incomparably brutal deaths. They were like evil spirits sentenced to death, annihilated within the Infernal Palace.
Although these were just visions manifested of reincarnation sword intent, they were so vivid and lifelike that they seemed real!
All of this was connected to Su Yi’s breakthrough into the Manifesting Mortality Realm. He’d stepped onto an unprecedented path forbidden by the Contract of the Gods!
Stepping onto it had triggered an earth-shaking transformation to Su Yi’s cultivation base, like nirvanic rebirth and an ascent to a higher level of being!
Following this breakthrough and the accompanying transformation, Su Yi’s power of reincarnation was starkly more powerful than before. And that was even before considering that reincarnation was a natural counter to revenants!
“Withering and Flourishing, the Cycle of Life and Death!” Su Yi swung his sword into the air, and a vision of the Sacred Tree of Samsara rose from the ground. Its branches stretched into the blue dome of heaven, while its roots reached the Netherworld.
Three revenants’ bodies split, going from overflowing vitality to withering and decay, a transition from life to death! Withering and flourishing, the cycle of life and death!
Seeing this left the distant onlookers gobsmacked. Their minds went blank.
It was as if a curtain of perpetual night had enshrouded their entire field of view, or as if the Cycle of the Six Paths of Reincarnation were playing out before them.
The Reincarnation Pool, Path of the Far Shore, Sea of Bitterness, and Infernal Palace, places they’d thought had only existed in legend, all appeared beneath the edge of Su Yi’s sword.
Creating and manifesting the power of reincarnation!
This was the natural bane of revenants. As its power swept outward, the combatants rose and fell, struggling for survival within it.
“Reincarnation… isn’t this power a bit too terrifying…!?” someone said with grief, giving into despair.
“How is this possible? A whole group of immortals joined forces, and we still can’t take him down?” said another, their eyes bulging. They couldn’t accept this.
The power of reincarnation could End even lofty and superior immortal revenants., withering their life force and terminating their lives!
“This… is the true source of that punk’s confidence…” the yellow dog said with a deep sigh.
Su Yi had proven his Dao and stepped into Transcendence. Now, when he displayed the power of reincarnation through the Dao of the Sword, it served as an ultimate killer weapon against revenants, filling their hearts with terror.
At first, almost no one had thought highly of Su Yi’s chances. Most of them assumed that now that immortals had rallied against him, there was no way Su Yi was leaving here alive.
But reality was far too cruel.
There was no need for Su Yi to borrow external power or rely on another’s aid. Su Yi fought with nothing but his own strength, yet immortal revenants nonetheless fell like rain!
“I heard that Fellow Daoist Su once said, ‘Even if gods and immortals really exist, they too must avert their gazes before me! Otherwise, I’ll cut down immortals here in the Human Realm.’ It seems that was no empty boast!” Mo Xinglin muttered.
Su Yi wasn’t just making immortals “avert their gazes.” No, he was making them part with their heads altogether. He was sweeping right through them!
Admittedly, these immortals were still just revenants, and they were far from comparable to true, living immortals.
But don’t forget: Su Yi had only just recently stepped onto the Path of Transcendence!
Blood fell like rain, and shouts shook the heavens.
When the battle began, Su Yi’s enemies consisted of a terrifying lineup of thirty-six enraged immortals. Now, only about ten remained.
More than half had perished already!
“Fellow Daoist, please, show mercy! I’m willing to submit!!” a gray-robed elder suddenly shrieked.
He was an old-timer from the Southern Flame Pure Lands. In life, he was a ruthless expert of the Demonist path, yet now, he was scared out of his wits!
Splurt!
Sword qi swept past, and the gray-robed elder’s head flew through the air.
A moment later, his body exploded.
Mercy? What mercy? Su Yi had made his position perfectly clear before the battle began. They could submit, or they could die.
And not one of the immortal revenants had chosen submission. Given that that was the case, it was only right that he ended their lives.
It was too late for regrets!
“Fellow Daoist Su, our Red City Daoist Sect once established positive karma with you, and we’re here today because circumstances forced our hand. We had no choice but to ally ourselves with the Entombed Spirit Immortal Sect!” a middle-aged man said in a quavering voice. “I humbly request your magnanimity. Please, give me an opportunity to make amends!”
Su Yi disregarded this completely, not hesitating to swing his sword.
Circumstances forced your hand? Feh! How could you talk of positive karma after aiding evildoers?
The only way to make amends now was through death!
Someone gnashed his teeth, swung his sleeves, and fled into the distance. But before he’d gotten far, an unassuming yellow dog blocked his path and swung its paw. “Get back there!”
Bang!
The fleeing revenant soared back into the battlefield like a rubber ball.
Before he’d even steadied himself on his feat, Su Yi cut him down on the spot.
“I said it earlier, didn’t I?” shouted the dog. “If you can’t kill that Su kid, none of you are permitted to leave. Try it, and I’ll be the first to object!”
Seeing this left the remaining immortal revenants on the verge of breaking down.
Before long, only five of them remained, including Feng JInghai and Lu Dongqiu.
Su Yi’s blue robes were stained red, and blood dripped from the edge of his sword.
None of the blood was his.
The sight of his blood-stained robes and dripping sword only made him all the more imposing.
He showed no mercy, and his gaze remained as calm as ever as he swung his sword and attacked.
Immortal revenants were, ultimately, neither human nor ghost. They’d lost their bodies, and a curse entrapped their souls. They could display at most twenty percent of the power they’d had at their former peaks.
To Su Yi, who controlled the power of reincarnation and who’d stepped into the Manifesting Mortality Realm, such opponents were no longer much of a threat. At most, killing them took a bit of extra work.
And even with his lazy personality, today, he was willing to put in that extra work. He was going to fight until the factions hostile to him collapsed and dissolved!
Crunch!
A spear snapped, and yet another immortal revenant died a grievous death. A slash took his head clean off!
“Quick, circulate the formation and call the ancestor—!”
At the center of Lake Bluemist, the higher-ups of the Entombed Spirit Immortal Sect were now fully aware of their predicament, and they immediately activated an immortal formation. Terrifying energy fluctuations swept toward Su Yi.
Meanwhile, Feng Jinghai and the others were just about to retreat into Lake Bluemist when…
Boom!!
Su Yi suddenly slashed with the Sword of the Human Realm. The power of the formation filling the sky exploded, and the waters of the enormous Lake Bluemist churned as a massive, startling chasm formed.
At the far end of the chasm, the islands at the heart of the lake, the base of the Entombed Spirit Immortal Sect, shook violently.
“This is bad!” Chills coursed through Feng Jinghai and the others. Their hearts sank.
By now, their hair was disheveled, and their eyes bulged in their sockets. They were like trapped beasts given into despair!
Clang!
Su Yi stretched out his fingers and flicked the flat of his sword, then stepped forward. From beginning to end, he did not say a word. He was planning to kill them all anyway, so why waste his breath?
But it was then that bellows resounded from beneath the distant dome of heaven. “Stop!”
“My young friend, please, show mercy!” f𝗿eweb𝗻o𝐯𝐞l.𝚌om
…Before these voices had even finished echoing through the air, several figures with terrifying auras shot over from the distant skies.
There were three of them in total: a red-robed man, a middle-aged man with a curly beard, and a stick-thin Daoist.
Every last one of them seemed like a sovereign capable of presiding over mountains and rivers and holding the sun and moon aloft. Their terrifying auras swept across the battlefield, making heaven and earth tremble.
The pressure was suffocating!
The dog’s eyes narrowed, and it immediately shifted, appearing silently at Su Yi’s side.
Meanwhile, Feng Jinghai and the others were briefly stunned. Then, they recognized these new arrivals, and all of them lit up with delight.
We’re saved!
