Chapter 34: Intercepting The Seven Killings Stele
Translator: 549690339
The True Dragon passed the Heavenly Tribulation, affecting numerous individuals in its wide reach. The Golden Crow was launched sky-high by a sweep of the dragon’s tail, individuals affected by the Dharma Manifestation in the World were rammed by the dragon’s horn, members of the Sun Chaser Clan were burnt to a crisp by the Tribulation, and the Kun Peng in the sea were numbed from the lightning strike…
Those affected were enraged. Everyone here was in the later stage of Foundation Establishment, no one showing significant weakness compared to the others. They couldn’t stand the two having all the fun and acting like the big shots!
The individual affected by the Dharma Manifestation in the World and the Kun Peng made instantaneous eye contact, forming a temporary alliance.
The individual from the Dharma Manifestation in the World tore off a piece of the Kun fish’s tail, spinning it around twice in place before launching it directly at the True Dragon, breaking off one of the dragon’s horns.
Some people lifted mountains and tossed them towards the person manipulating the Heavenly Tribulation, only to have the mountains shattered by the sky lightning.
“You think these little hills can hurt me…pfft!”
A Golden Crow, hidden among the mountains, surged skyward like a brilliant sunrise, burning the shoulder of the person controlling the Heavenly Tribulation!
Watching the group’s fancy fighting, Jiang Li began to reflect.
He pondered if his own fighting style was too dull—just simply punching through. Should he bring in some flair? Perhaps wielding something like the Xuan Yuan sword to enhance his appearance?
The Seven Killings Daoist’s Intercepting The Seven Killings Stele was crazily spinning with his intention, seven paths filled with killing intent breaking through the space. He shouted, “Every creature under the heavens is born of man, but no man is born of the heavens, kill kill kill kill kill kill kill!”
‘l’ne seven Killings Da01St loved Intercepting ‘L’ne seven Killings Stele and otten gathered related legends. Therefore, the Seven Killings Stele he imagined had a formidable power like a real Immortal Artifact.
This was an imagined power based on his own cognition. He had heard of the imposing might of a Tribulation Crossing Cultivator, but he didn’t know how to break through the Transcendence Tribulation Stage. He could only imagine himself as a cultivator newly entered into the Body Integration Realm. His level was about the same as Daoist Xuan Ai, which was somewhat exaggerated. Thus, he couldn’t unleash the full potential of Intercepting The Seven Killings Stele. Nevertheless, with a cultivator in the Body Integration Realm controlling an Immortal Artifact, he was indeed terrifying.
“Li Fugui, stop pretending and playing big shot. Do you actually think you’ve become the Seven Killings Daoist?” Qin Luan sneered from the side. He did not imagine aimlessly. Instead, he continuously imagined his circumstances after Core Formation—what kind of Golden Core would best suit him.
In just this respect, he could surpass everyone present.
On hearing Qin Luan addressing him by his secular name, the Seven Killings
Daoist was instantly infuriated. But seeing Qin Luan merely at the Golden Core Stage, he quickly cooled down. After all, what was a cultivator from the Body Integration Realm winging about with a Golden Core Stage newbie?
He casually threw out a streak of killing intent. He wanted to chop off Qin Luan’s sharp tongue!
“Seven Killings Daoist, how dare you!” Song Ying rushed to their defense, releasing an illusionary cyan lotus to block the intentional killing blow.
Jiang Li wore a strange expression. Currently, Song Ying was dressed in the robe of Red Dust Pure Land, her weapon a cyan lotus, looking a lot like Pure Heart Saintess.
Indeed, Song Ying worshipped the Pure Heart Saintess, so she had adopted her appearance in this dream. But as she had never seen the face of the Pure Heart Saintess, she was forced to cover her own face with a veil, adding to the mystery.
“Hehe, what don’t I dare?” Facing Song Ying from the Body Integration Realm, the Seven Killings Daoist took it seriously. He was determined to chop off Qin Luan’s tongue today. Even if the Human Emperor showed up, he wouldn’t be able to stop him. Watch him do it!
The Intercepting The Seven Killings Stele’s glow intensified, sword intent crisscrossing through thousands of miles. The True Dragon, entangling opponents on the side, was so badly scratched it lost several scales. Hundreds of thousands of mountains were sliced in half, the top separated from the base.
If the sidelines were already so intense, it was easy to imagine the power of the sword intent faced by Song Ying and Qin Luan.
Song Ying shielded the two of them with multiple layers of cyan lotuses.
However, because the cyan lotuses weren’t truly summoned by the Pure Heart Saintess, the defense was limited and ultimately soared off, blown away by the Seven Killings sword intent.
However, it was a blessing that they were protected by the cyan lotuses; otherwise, the endless sword intent would have chopped Qin Luan into pieces.
Jiang Li dissolved the impact on Qin Luan and Song Ying using his Spiritual Energy, helping them land steadily.
On recognizing their savior as Jiang Li, Qin Luan and Song Ying, aware that Jiang Li was the Human Emperor, quickly bowed in gratitude, expressing their appreciation for his life-saving grace.
Jiang Li dismissed their thanks with a wave, “It’s not life-saving. No one can die in a dream.”
After a moment’s thought, he said, “However, there are great opportunities in the face of great dread. Maybe it would be good for you to experience it once?”
Song Ying rejected immediately while Qin Luan was all eager to try, seemingly eager to experience death.
“Haha, just kidding. It’s not advisable to toy with death.”
“Quite the hot temper, aren’t you?” Jiang Li, turning around, said jokingly to the Seven Killings Daoist.
“Human Emperor Jiang.” The Seven Killings Daoist slightly bowed, showing respect but not too much of it. “I only wanted to test my potential.”
The Seven Killings Daoist recognized Qin Luan, Li Litong and Song Ying, waking up as the fifth person. It was not hard to recognize that Jiang Li had transformed himself into the Human Emperor.
Jiang Li sighed, returning to his original form. “I shouldn’t have told the truth to Dream Elder. How about it, do you want to compete with me?” Jiang Li could tell that the Seven Killings Daoist was itching to try.
“Please teach me,”
The Seven Killings Daoist took a stance.
He was presently in the Body Integration Realm, and with the Intercepting The Seven Killings Stele in his hand, he had just defeated Song Ying and Qin Luan easily. He suddenly felt that no one was his match and was inspired to challenge Jiang Li.
Jiang Li didn’t mind. Young people would not know the extent of their reach, which was normal. When he was in the Foundation Establishment Stage, if something like this happened, he would have dared to challenge the previous Human Emperor, too.
Moreover, compared to everyone else’s reverence towards him, he preferred being challenged.
The Intercepting The Seven Killings Stele trembled slightly, the released sword intent shattered the surrounding airspace into a vacuum around the Seven Killings Daoist.
Fortunately, the Seven Killings Daoist was currently in the Body Integration
Realm, capable of completing autointoxication, so he didn’t need to exchange oxygen with the outside world. Otherwise, he would have suffocated to death.
The Intercepting The Seven Killings Stele transformed into seven Immortal Swords, levitating vertically around him. The Seven Killings Daoist grabbed one of the swords, shouting one word: “Kill!”
The sword thrust out without any fancy maneuvers, but nonetheless Qin Luan saw Jiang Li, who didn’t move forward, getting closer and closer to the Seven Killings Daoist!
He immediately realized what had happened and exclaimed, “This sword is severing the space between the Seven Killings Daoist and Jiang Li, making the distance between the two of them shorter!”
How sharp this sword could be! Qin Luan knew little about Intercepting The Seven Killings Stele, nor did he know that it could transform into seven Immortal Swords and clip a corner of the Immortal Realm!
Jiang Li, facing this sword, neither dodged nor evaded. Instead, he extended his thumb and index finger, gently holding the Seven Killings Immortal Sword as if he was holding a feather.
The Seven Killings Daoist opened his eyes wide, unable to believe his eyes.
According to his thoughts, even if he couldn’t injure the Human Emperor, he should at least be able to put some pressure on him. How was Jiang Li able to catch the Immortal Sword so effortlessly?
This was an Immortal Sword transformed from Intercepting The Seven Killings Stele!
“Well, it’s quite something. A regular cultivator at the Body Integration Realm can’t block this sword. However, it’s rather difficult to even hurt a cultivator at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage with it, let alone harm me,” Jiang Li evaluated. With a slight exertion of his fingers, he lightly tossed the Immortal Sword, along with the stunned Seven Killings Daoist, behind him..
