Seeking the Flying Sword Path

Yi Xiao could not help but feel her heart tighten when she heard Qin Yun inquire about their daughter. “Our daughter has been born but my Dharmic powers were completely sealed. I could not protect her. He Qian snatched our daughter from my arms before sending her through a world rift to a fiendcelestial world.”

“She was sent to a fiendcelestial world?” Qin Yun’s heart stopped.

“They imprisoned me here to use me against you,” said Yi Xiao immediately. “They planned on sending me to another world but, due to my bloodline awakening, I had already reached the True Dragon realm. Therefore, they could only imprison me. As for our daughter, she was only a mortal baby. They easily sent her to the fiendcelestial world. Perhaps, they will use our daughter against you in the future.”

“A fiendcelestial world. Which world is it?” asked Qin Yun.

“I do not know. I only saw a world that appeared extremely evil through the world rift,” said Yi Xiao. “My guess is that it’s a fiendcelestial world! As for which world it is, I do not know.”

Yi Xiao’s eyes turned red as she spoke. “I really wanted to protect our daughter but I was useless…”

“It’s alright.” Qin Yun hugged his wife and immediately consoled her. “This is not your fault! I was able to save you only because I gained the help of an Ancestral Dragon realm existence, Puqu Dragonlord.”

“Ancestral Dragon realm?” asked Yi Xiao. “What’s the Ancestral Dragon realm?”

“A realm above the Skydragon realm!” said Qin Yun. “They are on the same level as Golden Immortals and Buddhas. They are peerless figures of the Three Realms, extremely mighty with boundless Dharmic powers.”

Yi Xiao’s eyes lit up.

“Once this matter is resolved, I will seek Puqu Dragonlord’s help again,” said Qin Yun. “You gave birth to our daughter after you had a dragon bloodline awakening. Our daughter should transform into a dragon at a young age. On account of her dragon ancestry and me having a superior-grade Numinous treasure, the Minor Empyrean Seal, I believe the Dragonlord will agree to help us save our daughter.”

Yi Xiao was filled with questions. Superior-grade Numinous treasures? Even Numinous treasures had grades?

Minor Empyrean Seal?

“You can save our daughter?” Yi Xiao was delighted.

“Yes.” Qin Yun nodded.

Qin Yun would spare no expense, even if he had to pay the price of the Minor Empyrean Seal.

Due to him being a mortal sword immortal, his Dharmic powers only allowed him to control an inferior-grade Numinous treasure at best even though he had condensed a purplish-gold Golden Core! Although medial-grade or superior-grade Numinous treasures could recognize him as master… controlling them was just too exhausting. He was unable to truly use them to their full potential.

For instance, an ordinary Connate Golden Core could barely control transcendent-grade Dharma treasures.

Therefore, a treasure at the level of the Minor Empyrean Seal could only really be wielded by one with Skyimmortal Dharmic powers. Only some Essence Souls with more robust foundations like Arhat Tenside or Ape Fiend Junior could control a superior-grade Numinous treasure with third Firmament Essence Soul Dharmic powers.

“Everything is worth it to save our daughter.” Qin Yun looked forward to meeting her one day.

“Xiaoxiao,” Qin Yun said. “This time, Divine Firmament Chapter’s Ancestral Master Zhang, Human Emperor, Bodhisattva Mahākāśyapa, East Sea Skydragon, Skydemoness and I will be joining forces. We hope to eradicate the Boor Ancestral Sect of the Nine Lineage Fiendish Demons. We will rid the Great Chang world of a scourge.”

“Eradicate the Boor Ancestral Sect?” Yi Xiao could not help but comment. “The Boor Ancestral Sect has been in existence for hundreds of thousands of years and it has very deep roots. How do you plan to destroy it?”

“The entrance to this Grotto-heaven is right inside the Boor Ancestral Sect’s lair,” said Qin Yun. “They abducted my wife and took my daughter away. How can I spare them?”

A cold glint flashed in Qin Yun’s eyes.

Yi Xiao nodded as well. Her eyes were filled with hate. How could she not feel any hate after watching her daughter be forcefully taken away just moments after she was born?

“Let me remove the seals on you first.” Qin Yun immediately transmitted his Dharmic powers into Yi Xiao’s body. The sharp wisps of Dharmic powers resembled swords. With Qin Yun’s superb realm, he skillfully and easily removed the seals in his wife’s body.

“Whoosh~”

The potent Dharmic powers surged through Yi Xiao’s body like a raging river. She regained the color in her face as her True Dragon realm aura began to burst out of her.

“Stay by my side. Do not go far,” said Qin Yun.

“Okay.” Yi Xiao nodded. Although she had reached the second Firmament True Dragon realm, she could not do a thing in a battle as intense as the destruction of the Boor Ancestral Sect.

“Retrieve.”

Qin Yun threw out the Two World Picture. It flew up and stopped in midair. A large amount of treasure beneath was sucked into its array.

This was a Grotto-heaven that had been operated by the Boor Ancestral Sect for years. It was extremely important to them, which was also why they hid their treasures there!

After putting away all the treasures, the Two World Picture flew back into Qin Yun’s hands.

“Break!”

Qin Yun waved his hand.

A wisp of misty rain flew out from his fingertip, streaking across the sky in a beautiful trajectory that spanned tens of kilometers before it struck the membrane wall of the Grotto-heaven.

Ka Ka Ka…

Many fine cracks appeared in the Grotto-heaven’s walls, then the entire Grotto-heaven crumbled. During this shattering process, one could see the connecting node between the Grotto-heaven and the Great Chang world.

“Let’s go.” Qin Yun held his wife’s hand as he transformed into a sword-like beam of light. He then followed the node to depart the crumbling Grotto-heaven.

The Grotto-heaven completely shattered after Qin Yun left.

In the ensuing void storms, everything in the Grotto-heaven was ground into nothingness.

…

Boor Ancestral Sect’s lair.

There was lush vegetation in the continuous stretch of mountains. Many of the Boor Ancestral Sect’s fiendcelestials and core disciples were gathered in the sect’s grand hall. There were also tens of thousands of disciples gathered in a square outside the hall.

Sitting atop a throne was a stocky single-horned ox fiend. He was Sect Master Boor Ancestral!

And beside him were Patriarch Monkey and Aged Fiend Goat Horn.

These three… were famous fiends in the Great Chang world. They were all at the peak third Firmament realm.

Sect Master Boor Ancestral had extremely dominating strength. His strength was a hair’s breadth away from that of a Skygod or Skyfiend. Patriarch Monkey was an ancient existence that was the best at divination among the Nine Lineage Fiendish Demons. Aged Fiend Goat Demon was the best at array formations.

“The transmission marks all dissipated at once.” Aged Fiend Goat Horn narrowed his eyes as he said coldly, “All the disciples inside the Grotto-heaven, as well as Fiendcelestial Huangchong! All of their transmission marks have dissipated. It looks like all of them are dead.”

“What danger did they encounter for Huangchong to be so alarmed that he crushed the token?” The ox fiend frowned. “Furthermore, all of them died in a blink of an eye. Not a single one came out alive. Unfortunately, the Grotto-heaven is isolated from the outside world. There’s no way to send any transmissions to it. It’s also unknown who the enemy is.”

Patriarch Monkey had a wrinkled face and a declining air about him. He said in a deep voice, “I already mentioned that it’s a great calamity. A huge calamity for our Boor Ancestral Sect. If we do not survive this, our Boor Ancestral Sect might really be completely obliterated.”

The trio discussed in an isolated space. They prevented their subordinates from hearing any of their conversation.

They held the highest positions in the Boor Ancestral Sect.

“Sect Master Boor Ancestral.” A voice suddenly sounded in the trio’s ears. “From the looks of it, your Boor Ancestral Sect has encountered trouble. It’s trivial if a bunch of your Boor Ancestral Sect disciples die, but remember, do not spoil the Empyrean Lord’s plans.”

“I understand,” the ox fiend replied with an immediate voice transmission “Don’t worry. We will settle the issue quickly.”

“Okay,” the voice replied indifferently.

In a hidden compound in the Boor Ancestral Sect’s lair, a thin man in luxurious clothes sat cross-legged. he had a pair of long, foxy eyes. His eyes were open as he looked into the distant outside world. He grumbled softly, “Huangchong really is incompetent. He was a fiendcelestial that reached the third Firmament, but he died so quickly? From the looks of it, some unforeseen danger has presented itself. It’s best if the Boor Ancestral Sect sect can resolve the matter themselves. If I were to take action, it would only draw suspicion from people like Daoist Divine Firmament.”

At that moment—

Swoosh.

A man and woman flew out of the void like an otherworldly couple.

The man’s hair was disheveled but his eyes were staring right at the Boor Ancestral Sect’s grand hall. It was filled with killing intent!

“Qin Yun?” The thin man could not help but be alarmed when he saw the scene from a distance.

The three mighty fiends in the grand hall turned their heads and saw the couple exit the void. They could not help but be alarmed. “Qin Yun? How did he appear here?”

They naturally recognized him.

After all, Qin Yun was extremely famous in the Great Chang world.

“Boor Ancestral Sect, die!”

Qin Yun’s angry bellow sounded like thunder that roared in every Boor Ancestral Sect disciple’s ears.

“Boor Ancestral Sect, die!”

“Boor Ancestral Sect, die!”

“Boor Ancestral Sect, die!”

…

The disciples’ minds were abuzz the instant they heard the angry bellow.

The tens of thousands of disciples in the square outside the grand hall were fiendish demons meticulously chosen for their potential but now, their bodies noiselessly dissipated under Qin Yun’s shout.

The scene of tens of thousands of fiendish demons being reduced to nothingness made the three mighty fiends sitting high above stare with widened eyes.

A terrifying blast enveloped the square and hall.

Many disciples in the hall were reduced to nothing as well.

Hum!

Behind the throne where the ox fiend sat was a gigantic fiendcelestial statue. It was emitting a forcefield that spread out for a thousand feet to protect the area!

The Boor Ancestral Sect’s fiendcelestials and twenty plus core disciples were within that one thousand feet.

All the disciples that were standing even slightly to the periphery of the grand hall were obliterated.

“Qin Yun has reached the Skyimmortal realm!” The ox fiend stood up, his expression twisted into pure shock, as he stared intently at the distant Qin Yun.

“A Skyimmortal realm’s Dao domain!”

Multiple blood vessels appeared in Patriarch Monkey and Aged Fiend Goat Horn’s eyes as though they were cracking.

Yes.

Qin Yun had cast out his Dao domain the moment he appeared to vanquish all the Boor Ancestral Sect disciples. It was just too difficult to defend against a Skyimmortal realm’s Dao domain. Even the array formations set up in the Ancient Skydragon Palace at the bottom of the West Sea could previously suppress Qin Yun’s Dao domain but now, with him having reached the Skyimmortal realm, even the ancient Skydragon himself might only equal Qin Yun’s Dao domain while alive. Those array formations could no longer suppress Qin Yun’s Dao domain.

It was the same with the Boor Ancestral Sect’s array. Only a very tiny area could be barely protected.

All the disciples outside of the array were obliterated.

Of course, Qin Yun did not implicate the mortals that appeared innocent.

“He killed so many of our Boor Ancestral Sect’s disciples?” The ox fiend fumed in anger, his eyes red.

…

Qin Yun held his wife’s hand as he looked at the distant Boor Ancestral Sect hall. He did not show any mercy. Destroying one of the Nine Lineage Fiendish Demons was part of the plan to begin with. It was something generations of cultivators yearned to do.

“I will not only kill your disciples, I will kill all of you too! Die!” Qin Yun roared as he waved his hand.

Hua!

The Misty Rain Sword expanded abruptly, becoming a glaring sword beam that was at least a thousand feet wide as it streaked across the sky, shooting straight for the Boor Ancestral Sect’s grand hall.
