Chapter 1714: Is This All You Got?

“Blasphemer! You will never know how great and mighty the heavenly god is!”

Black Mountain roared, “Great Black Water Heavenly God, Lord of Disaster, I beseech you to bestow me with your infinite divine power!”

Black Mountain roared, and a black pond appeared behind his back.

The pond looked neither big nor deep, but the power it contained was anything but. It was deep, vast, and unfathomable.

Streams of water flowed out of the black pond and into Black Mountain’s body. The next second, the shattered half of his torso immediately regenerated to normal.

Not only that, Black Mountain’s aura was growing stronger and scarier as more black water entered his body.

Glug! Glug!

That wasn’t all. The black pond bubbled, and a silhouette slowly rose out of it. It was none other than Flying Dragon, whom Ye Qing had killed just moments ago.

“Keke... you didn’t think I would still be alive, did you?”

Flying Dragon shook off the water droplets clinging to his body and cackled sinisterly.

Flying Dragon didn’t just look to be in pristine condition, his aura was clearly stronger and deadlier than before.

“I did not.”

Ye Qing hadn’t expected this for sure. His tone was perfectly calm though.

“Aren’t you afraid?”

Flying Dragon found his lack of fear puzzling.

Ye Qing raised his eyebrows in response. “Why would I be? I can just kill you again. It’s not like it’s going to cost me much energy at all.”

“The audacity! The arrogance! Let’s see if you can remain stubborn after we’ve captured you and sacrificed you to the Black Water Heavenly God!”

Black Mountain and Flying Dragon flew into a rage. Who could stand being treated like an ant? No one!

This time, Black Mountain and Flying Dragon charged Ye Qing together.

Black Mountain grabbed his axe with both hands and swung downward.

The scarlet flame turned dark red in color and poured down the court of heavens like a world-ending flame.

The axe itself had transformed into a fire tiger that opened its mouth and exhaled an endless gust of wind that fueled the strength and speed of the fire.

Flying Dragon turned illusory as his power weaved the shape of a dragon in the air. It roared until the sky turned dark, and the earth fell silent. It looked like a dragon that would consume it all.

Ye Qing extended his hands forward with one palm facing upward, and another facing downward. Under, his left palm turned clockwise. Above, his right palm turned anti-clockwise. The rotation naturally created yin and yang, and yin and yang came together into a millstone that ground all things into nothing.

“Great Yin Yang Hand”

As the millstone turned, the fire was annihilated, and the black tiger was crushed. The flying dragon too was ground into nothing.

Shocked and angry, Black Mountain and Flying Dragon tried to escape the range of the yin yang millstone with all their might. It was futile though. The millstone kept turning and applying its endless and great power on them, pinning them in place. Not only that, they were slowly but surely being dragged toward the center of the yin yang millstone.

“Argh! Ahhh!!!”

Black Mountain and Flying Dragon would not stop yelling. It was both because of anger and pain. Eventually, the power of yin and yang cracked their bodies open like grain and ground them bit by bit into nothingness.

In just the blink of an eye, both Black Mountain and Flying Dragon were no more.

After confirming the duo had perished in body and mind, Ye Qing lowered his palms. The yin yang millstone in the air also disappeared gradually.

“That’s that!”

Ye Qing turned around and got ready to leave. It was at this moment he sensed something and looked back.

Glug! Glug!

Once more, the black pond had appeared, and once more, its mysterious and vast power spread through the air.

Ye Qing rubbed his nose in annoyance.

They’re not going to revive again, right? Right?

Alas, reality was a cruel mistress. Once more, Black Mountain and Flying Dragon surfaced from the pond.

“What a pain.”

Now that he knew what to expect, Ye Qing wasn’t going to let them revive unhindered, of course. He raised his fist and unleashed an Annihilation Hammer.

Buzz...

Space shook as the fist intent of Annihilation Hammer annihilated everything in its range.

But to Ye Qing’s surprise, the fist intent only caused ripples to the black pond. It did not seem to hurt it one bit. As Black Mountain and Flying Dragon were still in the pond, they were completely unharmed as well.

“Hmph! Let’s see if you’re truly immune!”

With a thought, Ye Qing summoned rays of dark yellow light, formless demonic qi,and black and white Yin Yang Qi. Together, they formed a mysterious world.

“Martial Domain: Profound Yellow Heaven of Freedom”

Inside the Profound Yellow Heaven of Freedom, Ye Qing reached out and pushed. As soon as Black Mountain and Flying Dragon left the black pond, they were met with Ye Qing’s descending palm.

Rumble!

It was like his palm was a mountain. They forcefully suppressed the two Sages.

“Rahhhhh!”

Black Mountain and Flying Dragon roared as they attempted to flip the mountain over. However, every time the mountain descended an inch, it would grow bigger, thicker, and heavier.

By the time the five-fingered mountain actually landed on them, it had become so heavy that their resistance was utterly futile.

Not only that, their power was sealed after they were suppressed. Now, they couldn’t commit suicide even if they tried.

“Go on! Revive them again if you can!”

Ye Qing looked at the black pond in the sky scornfully.

Instead of killing Black Mountain and Flying Dragon, he suppressed instead. He wanted to see if the black pond could still revive them despite this.

It looked like the black pond had a mind of its own because it rippled slightly before tendrils of black water emerged. Incredibly, they ignored the restrictions and walls put up by the Profound Yellow Heaven of Freedom and entered Black Mountain and Flying Dragon’s body.

Over time, Black Mountain and Flying Dragon swelled rapidly both in size and power. They were beginning to fight back against the Profound Yellow Heaven of Freedom once more.

“I guess even you can’t create something out of nothing!”

High above the nine heavens, Ye Qing remained calm and unperturbed. Every time Black Mountain and Flying Dragon grew bigger, the five-fingered mountain would grow three hundred meters taller. Every time Black Mountain and Flying Dragon gained a bit of strength, the five-fingered mountain would become five hundred kilograms heavier.

No matter how strong the demons became, Ye Qing’s Dao would grow a hundred times stronger in response. They would never escape his five-fingered mountain.

That was why the two Sages were unable to break free from the mountain even though they were growing stronger by the second. On the contrary, they were feeling more suffocated and helpless than ever.

Time passed, and the water in the black pond had decreased by several meters. By now, the five-fingered mountain had grown large enough to occupy the entire Profound Yellow Heaven of Freedom.

Ye Qing’s expression had gone from calm to serious as well. There were hints of blood at the edges of his eyes.

At this point, Ye Qing wasn’t contending against Black Mountain or Flying Dragon anymore. He was contending against the Black Water Heavenly God.

Undoubtedly, the black pond was intricately connected to the Black Water Heavenly God. The black water must be the Black Water Heavenly God’s own power.

Another teatime passed, and the black pond seemed to be scraping the bottom. Ye Qing could literally see the black mud at the bottom of the pond’s surface.

“What’s wrong? Ran out of strength already?”

Ye Qing chuckled when he saw this. “Is this all the Black Water Heavenly God has? Tsk tsk, how disappointing.”
