Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 1781 – Heavenly Punishment

At this moment, like a big drum, the huge frog’s stomach and chest continued to roll.

But what was really terrifying was the seawater that continued to surge in the huge frog’s stomach.

It was like countless knives that continuously stabbed Qin Yu back and forth, threatening to directly grind him into ashes.

And this was why Cave Master was confident that he could defeat Qin Yu!

Swallowing Sea was an innate Divine Way that he possessed. As he increased his cultivation level and realm, the power of this Divine Way would continuously increase as well.

It was not an exaggeration to say that ‘water rules over the entire world and dissolves all things’.

Even if one was in the True King realm, as long as one was being swallowed into that huge frog’s stomach, one would be killed bit by bit.

“Hahahaha!”

“Qin Yu, you were the one who sought death today. Die!”

The huge frog roared and the rolling of its stomach became even more intense. The waves surged and crashed, shocking the heavens and earth.

However, in actual fact, Qin Yu’s current situation was much better than Cave Master thought.

His Swallowing Sea Divine Way was truly powerful, but Qin Yu’s Mountains and Rivers Sword had used its sword aura to create a small world, preventing the waves from getting to him.

Qin Yu was silent the whole time and did not attack because he was waiting for an opportunity.

Just one slash to decide the victor, and to kill Cave Master.

Boom, boom –

In the darkness, the waves continued to surge violently, besieging Qin Yu. The redness in his eyes and the violent aura around him became more and more intense.

It was almost as if he was a monstrous demon that had walked out of the gates of hell!

Suddenly, Qin Yu abruptly raised his head and a hint of ferociousness flashed through his bloodshot eyes.

The time was now!

Boom –

The Mountains and Rivers Sword was raised, and then slashed downwards.

The ferocious waves were instantly split by the sword, and then, they were calm.

It was as if a pause button had been pressed.

Then, in the next moment, a miserable wail rang out.

A large gash appeared on the huge frog’s stomach and endless seawater gushed out of it. Together with the seawater, there was also its blood mixed together and its life energy was slowly trickling out along with it.

“Impossible! Impossible!”

The huge frog cried out in shock, looking extremely afraid.

We are .com, find us on google.

It tried to cover its wound desperately, but it was all useless.

Whoosh –

A glow of a sword flashed past him and the huge frog immediately went silent. Its enormous body became limp and collapsed backwards.

However, of course a True King was not going to let himself be killed so easily.

Croak –

There was a shrill cry, and a huge golden frog illusion rose from its corpse.

Its venomous eyes glared at Qin Yu. This illusion was the manifestation of Cave Master’s Great Dao.

As long as his Great Dao was not ruined, after endless years of hibernation, it could once again condense into a physical form and he would be resurrected.

“Qin Yu!” Cave Master roared, “I will come back, I will definitely come back for you!”

“White Feifei!” Qin Yu growled.

Boom –

An invisible energy suddenly descended, as if a majestic mountain fell on Cave Master’s Great Dao manifestation, pressing on him such that he was unable to move.

It forcefully ripped apart the connection between the manifestation and the world.

“No! Impossible! How can my Great Dao be suppressed?” Cave Master’s eyes widened as he asked urgently, “Qin Yu, what have you done?”

No one could have imagined that a person in the King realm would be able to order a Longevity Species around.

Qin Yu stepped forward, and the Mountains and Rivers Sword in his hands started to glow with a terrifying and evil glow.

Pitch black and blood red light intertwined with each other!

Then, he pierced his sword outwards, through Cave Master’s Great Dao manifestation. The golden frog’s eyes widened and they were filled with fear and hopelessness.

Boom –

Its body exploded and shattered!

A cold smile formed on Qin Yu’s lips. He pointed a finger on his forehead and shouted, “Open!”

An illusion of a vortex immediately appeared.

When he looked down, he could vaguely see a sun and moon revolving inside the vortex.

Rumble –

A low, throbbing sound could be heard from the vortex, as an incomparably strong plundering power was being released.

On the surface of every shattered golden fragment, Cave Master’s illusion could be seen.

His face was full of fear as he looked at Qin Yu and begged loudly, “Qin Yu! Let me go, please, let me go!”

But his efforts were all going to waste.

All of these shattered gold fragments were swallowed cleanly by the vortex in the blink of an eye.

Whoosh –

White Feifei’s illusion appeared in front of him. She looked at Qin Yu with a heavy expression.

“My Lord, let’s begin. I will cast a protection spell for you.”

Qin Yu sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.

In the next moment, he entered his soul space. The light produced by Purple Moon and Blue Sun intensified and they started to rise and set rapidly.

This created a Sunmoon Vortex, and flowing within this vortex, there were the countless golden Great Dao Fragments.

As the vortex began to spin, the shattered fragments started to knock into each other, creating clinking noises. Then, tiny little gold beads started to be produced from all the vibrations and they floated out of the vortex.

Just one look was enough for Qin Yu to know that these tiny golden beads were pure Great Dao energy that was refined from Cave Master’s Great Dao manifestation.

Qin Yu closed his eyes.

Boom –

A strong swallowing power erupted from his body.

The Bright Moon and Star Skill was operating at its full capacity!

Toad Skill…

Could it be that Rourou had expected such a day to come when she casually talked about the Toad Skill in the past? It was quite hard to believe that this was just a coincidence.

As soon as the thought came, it was suppressed.

This was because the amount of time left for Qin Yu was quickly diminishing.

If he wanted to quickly get rid of the dangers of Demonic Possession, he had to rapidly break through to the True King realm. The moment his consciousness fell, Qin Yu might not have a chance to be lucid ever again.

The Sunmoon Vortex could indeed refine a Great Dao and steal its power for him to use.

However, the speed of this process was too slow.

It wasn’t that it was actually slow, but Qin Yu no longer had time to spare.

He raised his hand and grabbed.

Whoosh –

The Mountains and Rivers Sword appeared in the soul space, right in Qin Yu’s hand.

“Go!” Qin Yu muttered, and the Mountains and Rivers Sword rushed towards the Sunmoon Vortex.

Boom –

Majestic sword aura erupted, slashing towards those Great Dao Fragments. 

The sounds coming from the vortex immediately intensified, producing rumblings that sounded like a great ocean was overturning.

More golden beads started to fly out of the vortex.

This move was effective!

In the outside world, White Feifei looked at Qin Yu and subconsciously exhaled slowly.

He actually used his sword to pierce through the vortex, how courageous of him. If the Mountains and Rivers Sword was damaged, Qin Yu would be the first to suffer from this.

If he encountered a backlash, then with his current situation, it would be difficult to prevent the Demonic Possession from happening.

But he still dared to do it!

Thankfully, Qin Yu’s attempts were successful. With the addition of his Mountains and Rivers Sword, the speed of refining Cave Master’s Great Dao increased by a large amount.

However, he had not escaped danger just yet.

On the contrary, with Qin Yu’s current state, it was not difficult to kill Cave Master at all. From White Feifei’s point of view, now was the most dangerous and perilous time.

This was because Qin Yu, who was originally supposed to suffer from heavenly punishment, was undergoing Demonic Possession right now.

Would the heavens allow him to escape from Demonic Possession? Or, would they take their chances to directly kill him now?

White Feifei raised her head, her eyes piercing through the Black Sea and focusing on the sky.

There was a blood red color pouring out, accumulating.

It was spreading out and becoming more intense, making people feel anxious and fearful.

That was the aura of heavenly punishment!

White Feifei’s heart sank. It seemed like the heavens had made their decision.

It was the worst outcome that she could have hoped for!

However, since the situation had already come to this, she had no other choice.

She could only have a future if Qin Yu continued to live. Otherwise, she would be severed and suppressed once again.

White Feifei gritted her teeth and her face was now full of determination.

Only a tragic outcome awaited a Longevity Species who went through heavenly punishment.

However, Qin Yu was the only strand of hope that she had encountered after countless years of waiting.

White Feifei was not going to let go of that so easily!

So what if it is a heavenly punishment? Back then, I personally went through it myself.

Let’s just go through it again, what’s the big deal?

I have to buy time for Qin Yu. Once he is successful, we will finally get out of this dangerous situation!

Of course, there was another important reason why White Feifei decided to help Qin Yu go through heavenly punishment.

Blazing Sun Fragment!

Even though Qin Yu had chosen to conceal the Blazing Sun Fragment that was in his possession to hide his identity, when he was in such great danger and death was right before his eyes, how was he going to hide it? And if he used this Blazing Sun Fragment, so what if he was going through heavenly punishment?! 

Even if it was just one fragment that was being used, and even if this fragment was incomplete, it was still a Blazing Sun Fragment, which was powerful enough to trump the entire world!

In conclusion, this was not the most desperate situation yet.

However, White Feifei still hoped that Qin Yu could do his best now and not use the Blazing Sun Fragment yet. The fragment was his very last trump card.

Otherwise, if he was tracked by that person traversing across worlds, even if he could survive today, he would be hunted down very soon.

If that happened, then in the end, it would be very difficult for him to escape death!

Qin Yu, you must give it your all!

……

Seizing Heavens Sect!

Qin Yû’s face turned ashen and he gritted his teeth, “Again! Again?”

He was furious. He wanted to shout at the sky so badly.

Qin Yu, who are you exactly?

True Kings were already existences that stood at the peak of this world, but for Qin Yu, they were just something to ‘fill his stomach’.

He had already crossed the line by breaking someone’s Great Dao and using it to empower himself, but what was more infuriating was how he broke someone else’s Great Dao after such a short period of time. 

True Kings had become just a dish on the table for him. What kind of logic was that?

At this moment, Qin Yû only felt hopelessness in his heart. He had come to the conclusion that he would never have the opportunity to surpass Qin Yu in this lifetime.

However, whether he was full of anger, scorn, or hatred, there were some things that he had no choice but to do. Otherwise, with just a thought, Qin Yu could completely remove his freedom to eat or roam around freely!

Therefore, in the Seizing Heavens Sect, Qin Yû announced that he would be going into closed door cultivation once again, under all the eyes that looked at him in both delight and disbelief.

“The heavens are looking after my Seizing Heavens Sect!”

“Our Seizing Heavens Sect can only rejoice now that we have such a talented individual blessed by the heavens!”

“If our sect’s ancestors knew about this, they would be smiling in their graves right now!”

On this day, everyone in the Seizing Heavens Sect cheered with delight.

……

Thirteenth Floor.

Li Ruhua could immediately feel the changes in her body that were out of her control.

Her power was increasing!

Instantly, she could feel an aura belonging to Qin Yu.

Indeed, it was him!

Biting on her lip, there was a complicated expression in Li Ruhua’s eyes as she got up and said, “Grandmaster, I don’t feel very well, I will leave slightly earlier today.”

“Okay, you may leave.”

Li Ruhua turned around and left, hurrying back to her quarters. She activated a restrictive spell, isolating her aura and preventing the outside world from sensing it.

At this moment, she failed to notice a glint of light flashing across the eyes of someone who was focused on her.

“Today’s lesson will conclude here. All of you, go and cultivate on your own.”

“Yes, Grandmaster.”

All of the disciples respectfully greeted him before they left.

Ninth Floor Master stood up and took one step forward. A moment later, he directly appeared at the Thirteenth Floor.

“Master Nine, what is it?”

Opposite him, a voice sounded out from a cluster of light.

Ninth Floor Master cupped his hands and said, “Floor Master, there were some changes in Li Ruhua’s aura.”

The light fluctuated for a bit, and after a few moments, it returned to calm.

“I got it.”

Ninth Floor Master nodded his head and turned to leave.

A low voice rang out from the light, “So this is what it is, Opening Heavens Sect’s Qin Yu…where exactly did you come from?”

“Huh?”

Whoosh –

A person walked out from the light.

However, the space around him vibrated quickly enough that it was distorted, and as this space wrapped around him, it was hard to see exactly what he looked like.

Undeniably, this was the true master of the Thirteenth Floor, the one with the highest authority!

Floor Master waved his sleeve and a light curtain appeared in front of him. The projected image showed a place filled with boundless black seawater, and above it, the sky was scarlet red, giving off a suffocating and scary aura.

“Heavenly punishment…”
