Chapter 575 - 574: Killing Xuan Wuji

Chapter 575: Chapter 574: Killing Xuan Wuji

Vast starlight transformed into pure, frost-like Moonlight that scattered across the graveyard, blanketing it in a sacred glow.

Yue Ji lifted her head, staring at the scene in a daze.

Qin Feng had learned the Taiyin Reincarnation Great Divine Power from her, so how could she not recognize it?

It was just that in Qin Feng’s hands, the might of this Divine Ability far exceeded her imagination.

Merely by sensing it, she couldn’t help but become immersed in the Reincarnation Mystical Meaning emanating from the Taiyin Reincarnation.

’Reincarnation Mystical Meaning?’ Wang Dao Yi sensed something. He glanced at Qin Feng, his Divine Thought scanning and probing, and he seemed to have gained some insight.

CRASH!

The massive block of ice crashed to the ground, and the impact felt as if it had landed squarely in the hearts of the assembled Martial Arts Strongmen.

The faces of many Martial Artists twitched.

Without a doubt, the battle had ended in Qin Feng’s complete and utter victory.

Xuan Wuji, the Crown Prince of the Qiankun Sect, had fallen!

He had single-handedly defeated Ao Li of the Sea Realm Pride Ranking.

And killed Xuan Wuji, a genius ranked in the top thirty on the Martial Arts Pride Ranking!

The outcome was simply staggering.

The faces of Ye Ding, Qian Kai, and Yan Ge were as black as soot. The strength Qin Feng had displayed was both shocking and infuriatingly envy-inducing.

Ye Ding gritted his teeth. Even at his peak, he wouldn’t have dared claim he could kill Xuan Wuji, yet Qin Feng had just done it.

Qian Kai, on the other hand, was filled with rage. He had endured countless hardships to achieve his current level of Cultivation, yet he was still suppressed by Qin Feng. The injustice of it all set his heart ablaze!

For Yan Ge, a shadow was growing in his heart, a mix of fear and jealousy. The last time they’d met, Qin Feng had beaten him into a "human stick," completely shattering his will. He had only just managed to crawl out of that darkness.

But now, he felt himself sinking back into despair.

Qin Feng, the Sealed Marquis Genius of the Star Sect. Many of the powerful experts present firmly committed this name to memory.

But not everyone was intimidated. A number of experts were still sizing Qin Feng up.

As the saying goes, when two tigers fight, one is bound to be injured.

Neither Xuan Wuji nor Ao Li was an ordinary opponent. No matter how you looked at it, killing Xuan Wuji couldn’t have been easy for Qin Feng.

And when the snipe and clam grapple, it is the fisherman who profits.

At this moment, Qin Feng’s entire body ached. Eight tyrannical streams of Qi Force rampaged through him, destroying his flesh and meridians while devouring his Vitality.

Shattering Xuan Wuji’s Power of Eight Desolates with a single sword strike had not come without a price.

It was the price for the weak to overcome the strong.

Earth, water, wind, fire, ice, thunder, wood, and light. If not for the superior quality of his Star River True Power, his body would have been torn to shreds by these eight forces long ago—let alone giving him the chance to ambush and kill Xuan Wuji.

Even so, Qin Feng’s body was now riddled with holes like a sieve, a complete mass of mangled flesh. Had it been any other Martial Arts Giant, they would have lost all ability to fight long ago!

Within his depleted meridians, wisps of Star River True Power were continuously being generated, refining and dissolving the eight streams of utterly pure Alien True Power.

A faint silver light shone from his meridians, making him seem like a Star Monarch dwelling amidst a sea of stars.

Deep within his soul lay a vast and hidden majesty.

A cold smile touched the corner of his lips. ’Even though I’m heavily injured, with the might of my Star River True Power and the terrifying physique of the Eight Desolates Undying Body, I don’t fear an attack from any of these so-called prodigies!’

In the shadows, the gazes of two extremely powerful experts flickered.

The auras they exuded were no weaker than Ao Li’s had been. In fact, one of them felt even more profound.

The two wore strange and distinctive attire, suggesting they were disciples from a Major Sect.

One of the experts suddenly spoke. "Is he just bluffing?"

The other shook his head. "He is indeed heavily injured, of that I’m certain. However, he cultivates some special Body Refining Technique. His physique is nearly at the Undying Realm. As long as his foundation is intact, we can’t do a thing to him!"

"Is that so?" The handsome youth who had spoken sounded unwilling to accept it.

This was a golden opportunity.

Most of the Star Sect’s experts were injured right now. Once they recovered, the chance would be gone.

Moreover, if they succeeded this time and killed the Star Sect’s Sealed Marquis Genius, they might even gain the favor of some of the Great Powers within their sect.

Qin Xie glanced at the youth who had spoken and gave a sinister smile. "Cheng Wuxue! You can give it a try. Who knows, you might just kill Qin Feng, seize his Qi Fortune, and ascend to the peak in a single stroke!"

Cheng Wuxue’s handsome face remained impassive. "Qin Xie, don’t try to provoke me. I can judge the situation for myself. You people from the Evil Extreme Dao just want to sow chaos. I heard you recently ruined things for Xiao Jingchan, the Sword Son of the Cangmang Sword Sect, by stealing his Heaven and Earth Sword Embryo. You’d better be careful. He won’t let you off the hook!"

As he spoke, Cheng Wuxue couldn’t hide his envy. A Heaven and Earth Sword Embryo was a blade born and nurtured by the world itself. It seized the essence of heaven and earth, absorbed the profound mysteries of the sun and moon, was forged by thunder and fire, used the earth as its furnace, and was quenched in the Nine Netherworld.

A Sword Embryo like that was an Innate True Artifact. If carefully nurtured, it could grow in power alongside its master’s Cultivation.

At the mention of Xiao Jingchan, Qin Xie’s expression turned ugly.

Xiao Jingchan was one of the six most famous Sword Sons of his generation in the Cangmang Sword Sect, and he was ranked in the top thirty on the Martial Arts Pride Ranking.

The Cangmang Sword Sect was also one of the Top Ten Sects, and as a sword-focused sect, they were the most terrifying of all.

Because his Heaven and Earth Sword Embryo had been stolen, that Cangmang Sword Son hated Qin Xie to the bone. He had chased him across entire domains, vowing to hunt him to the death!

Qin Xie’s expression soured as he recalled how terrifying that man was.

But he wouldn’t let it show on his face. He snorted lightly and said, "Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects belong to those with the fate to claim them. As for Xiao Jingchan, he may be immensely talented, but I, Qin Xie, am not afraid of him!"

"Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects belong to those with the fate to claim them. Well said. In that case, I’d say you seem quite fated with that Sea God Relic, don’t you think?" A wide grin spread across Cheng Wuxue’s handsome face.

Qin Xie shot Cheng Wuxue a sidelong glance.

"Cheng Wuxue, don’t try to needle me. As I recall, the mission the Celestial River Sword Sect gave you is also to seize the Sea God Relic. If you fail to complete your task, when you return to your sect..."

Cheng Wuxue’s expression darkened, and he said no more.

Seeing that no one dared to pluck the tiger’s whiskers, Qin Feng began circulating his Star River True Power to mend his injuries.

This time, by using Taiyin Reincarnation to kill Xuan Wuji, Qin Feng had gained quite a few benefits.

For one, he had used the battle to temper his Realm, which had become somewhat unstable due to his recent surge in Cultivation. For another, he had managed to pry into many of Xuan Wuji’s secrets within the Taiyin Reincarnation.

These included several True Inheritances of the Qiankun Sect: the True Martial Technique of Qiankun, the Qiankun Eight Desolates Atlas, the Purple Qi Nine Techniques, the Qiankun Ring Secret Record, and the Eight Extremes Heart Method. Unfortunately, as he was prying into these True Inheritances, he triggered certain oaths and Prohibitions within Xuan Wuji’s mind, causing his soul to collapse and limiting Qin Feng’s gains.

Aside from the Qiankun Ring Secret Record, which was mostly complete, he only managed to obtain one or two levels of the other Secret Techniques, including the core True Martial Technique of Qiankun and the Qiankun Eight Desolates Secret Record.

However, the Secret Techniques involving the circulation of yin and yang were of great benefit to Qin Feng.

By grasping these mysteries of Qiankun, the evolution of his Innate Yin Yang Divine Map progressed even further, and its power would become even more formidable.

’What a pity. If I could have obtained the complete True Martial Technique of Qiankun, I might have been able to bring my Innate Yin Yang Divine Map to the stage of Minor Achievement!’

Feeling a pang of regret, Qin Feng raised his head and swept the area with his Divine Thought. On another side of the battlefield, having witnessed Xuan Wuji’s death and Ao Li’s escape, the minds of Wang Lu and Mo Ao were gradually falling into chaos.

Suppressed by Wang Dao Yi’s Wheel Black and White Reincarnation Realm, they were being forced back step by step!

Just as the situation seemed to be decided, a sudden change occurred. Within his vast Divine Thought, Qin Feng sensed a silent, traceless gleam of light suddenly approach Qi Xia’er. Taking advantage of the fact that everyone’s attention was drawn to Qin Feng and Wang Dao Yi, the light flashed, snatched the Sea God Relic from her embrace, and vanished in an instant...
