Chapter 442 -441: The Reversal of the Situation_1

“Fairy, are you saying that this person has risen from the early stages of Unification to the Half Step to Transcendance Tribulation Stage?” Lu Yang asked in surprise, not quite understanding the situation.

The Half Step to Transcendance Tribulation Stage is not a realm, but a symbol of combat power. Cultivators whose power exceeds that of the ordinary Unification Stage but have not yet reached the Transcendance Tribulation Stage are referred to as the Half Step to Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

“Haven’t I told you? This is a method of cultivation that tempers the Divine Soul. It entails transforming into millions of different forms, experiencing life, comprehending the mundane world, ultimately unifying all experiences, returning to their peak state, or even achieving something even higher.”

“This person’s method of cultivation is quite similar to that of Mr. Shi.”

After considering for a moment, Lu Yang realized that Fairy Eternity was referring to Vice Headmaster Shi from the Jiuyou Teaching.

“Is he from the Jiuyou Teaching?”

“More than that, judging by the rule that the higher one’s Cultivation Level the higher one’s position, he’s likely someone like a Master.”

Lu Yang was incredulous and mostly confused.

“Is the Jiuyou Teaching so poor that its Master has to take up menial jobs himself?”

…

The man in the white paper hat sighed: “Now that all of my Clones have returned, all of these identities can no longer be used. How many Spirit Stones will this loss cost me?”

“It can’t be helped. Who asked you ancient cultivators to hold a grudge against us?”

He worked hard to make money because he feared that the followers of the Teaching would find out about their immense debt, a debt which had been used for the construction of the Jiuyou Teaching and the distribution of allowance.

Even if he reached the Transcendence Tribulation Stage in the future, there would still be a chance he wouldn’t survive should these things be exposed.

While he is still alive, he needs to work hard to fill the gap.

The more he earns, the greater the chance he will survive.

Vice Headmaster Shi considered the kebab shop a lifesaver and so did the man in the white paper hat.

“Who are you!” Wu Youdao shouted.

In front of the Righteous Path, of course, the man in the white paper hat couldn’t openly admit he was from the Jiuyou Teaching.

All he could do was give a cold laugh.

To everyone else, this was a symbol of mystery, even if his identity as the Master of Jiuyou Teaching was indeed mysterious enough.

“There’s no point in talking more. Monk of Great Yu, let’s settle old and new grudges together!”

The man in the white paper hat knew well the principle that the more one talks, the more mistakes one might make. Without saying another word, he rushed toward Wu Youdao.

“You dare to take action against me!”

“Mortar Hell – Great Millstone!”

A vast iceberg formed above Wu Youdao’s head, half the size of Hanshui City. It was like an eternal sheet of black ice, getting colder till it seemed to reach the extreme limit.

A massive inferno blazed beneath Wu Youdao, boundless like a prairie fire but more intense!

The ice mountain and the blazing fire seemed like a millstone, trapping Wu Youdao in the middle, unable to move.

“You dare to use such a trifling method against me?”

“Here I come too!” Qiu Jin’an made a move, rapidly casting a Five Elements spell with both hands.

The coldness of the eternal black ice intensified, even space and time seemed to condense. The massive inferno took on a black hue – these were the Dark Ghost Fire, specifically used for burning souls.

Wu Youdao’s complexion changed – the combined attack from the two was strong enough to threaten his life!

Crackle – Crackle –

The sounds of bones being crushed echoed and blood of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage flowed out, unable to be frozen or burnt, seeping from the edge of the millstone.

“Universe in Palm!”

Wu Youdao roared in rage, unleashing a furious blow. The explosive blow shattered the Mortar Hell’s Great Millstone!

“Form the Three Powers Formation!”

Qiu Jin’an commanded, the appearance of the man in the white paper hat gave him confidence.

“I control the power of the Five Elements, I take the position of Heaven!”

“You’ve casted the Mortar Hell, you take the position of Earth!”

“Governor Lv, as the official parents of the people, you take the position of Man!”

The Three Powers Formation is widely recognized. It was born in the ancient times but rarely had the chance to be successfully set up due to its incredibly high requirements on fate and Cultivation Level, the conditions are too harsh.

The three didn’t say much, and according to their own fate, they stood at their respective positions in the Three Powers Formation.

Once the Three Powers Formation was set up, the three of them instantly felt as if they had become part of a whole, their strength increased further, and their Divine Souls became even more consolidated!

“Daluo Triple Strength!”

Wu Youdao swung his fist, the imprint of which gleamed brightly. The space cracked wherever the radiating light from his fist passed, sealing off all possible escape routes.

His fist neared from a distance, and hit the stomach of the man in the white hat. The triple force passed between the three men. The weakest force was taken by him, the second by Qiu Jin’an, and the strongest third force was borne by Governor Lv, reducing the power of the punch to its maximum degree!

Under the reinforcement of the Three Powers Formation, the transmission of State Destiny was even quicker. The three men recovered instantly, as if they had never been hit by the punch!

𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

“Kill!”

The three men invoked the Three Powers Formation, launching their strongest attack, and renewed their fight with Wu Youdao.

Their bodies were repeatedly blown up, and again and again healed. What were fatal wounds for low-rank Cultivators were merely scratches to them, consuming some of their spiritual essence.

“Huff—huff—”

Wu Youdao was gasping fiercely. In the last exchange of blows, he had been blown up more times than the opposing side, and his consumption of spiritual essence was massive- even the elixirs couldn’t help replenish it.

He tried to flee from the battleground, but he was surrounded by the three men, unable to break through their blockade.

“Damn it!”

“Five-Colored Divine Light!”

“Mortar Hell!”

“Mountain Guard!”

The three men launched their major attacks. The Five-color dragon and Tiger Qi dissipated, unable to take shape. Wu Youdao took the three successive strikes head-on, his body was horribly damaged, and recovery proved slow.

Seeing this, the people of Hanshui city cheered in unison. The dark cloud that had formed in their hearts when Wu Youdao first appeared gradually dissipated.

“Enough watching, come out and help!” Wu Youdao roared angrily.

A decrepit yet gloomy voice sounded, and the stumbling old man leaning on his staff suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

“Your Majesty, this doesn’t seem like your style, needing to ask for help?”

“Cang Lei, this isn’t a call for help, it is I’s command!” Wu Youdao glared angrily at the old man.

“It’s almost the same.” The one called Cang Lei laughed heartily, revealing a mouth with barely any teeth left.

“Cang Lei… could it be the Honourable Cang Lei!” Governor Lv muttered, looked startled at Qiu Jin’an and the man in the white hat for confirmation. He saw the same astonishment in their eyes.

The three men, all of whom had heard of the venerable Cang Lei, felt their hearts thump. This was a Great Power at the beginning of the Transcendance Tribulation stage who was skilled in thunder techniques.

Another Transcendance Tribulation stage.

It was so taxing to fight one, how worse would it be to fight two?!

“Hehe, best surrender now. Our only aim is to obtain the State Destiny.” The Honourable Cang Lei laughed hoarsely, the thunder patterns on his staff flickering. It seemed as if a bolt of lightning would fall should Governor Lv dare to disagree.

None of the three men responded, plunging the scene into an eerie silence.

Crack—

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning sounded, breaking the silence.

The Honourable Cang Lei was taken aback; he hadn’t launched an attack yet.

Governor Lv’s eyes lit up, looking in the direction of the thunder. “It’s Master Ru, he is on the verge of breaking through to the Transcendance Tribulation stage!”

…

Corpse Chasing Sect.

Elder Gai spat on the hydra-headed bodies of the Witch Corpse Sect.

“Piss off, what a joke, challenging us with this level of ability, aren’t you keeping up with the times?”

“You, that’s not corpse-chasing techniques…” the last living man of the Witch Corpse Sect was stuttering, pointing at Elder Gai with a dim flame of life.

He couldn’t believe what he had just seen. Even though he was clearly alive, his body had been refined by Elder Gai, turning him into an actual living corpse, with no control over himself.

Besides that, there were all sorts of strange magic skills.

In the face of Elder Gai and the other three, the ancient corpse-chasing technique that the Witch Corpse sect took pride in had no advantage.

“What do you mean not corpse-chasing technique? This is the improved technique given by Seek Dao Sect!” Elder Gai puffed out his chest, clearly proud.

“Everyone rest and recover, and then we’ll head to the city to help.” Elder Gai called out to the others. Their previous battle had consumed quite a bit of energy.

Crack—

The sound of thunder roared, right above them, startling the four Elders as they looked up.

Elder Gai was the first to react finding the news delightful.

“The Sect Leader is about to break through!”
