Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 807 - 340: Palm Annihilates Brahma Heaven (Part 2)
Previously on Cultivating with Top Enlightenment...
Fei Bing along with the cultivators from the Vast Realm required no further discussion, whereas Brahma Heaven and Mu Zhutian experienced a twinge of embarrassment.
Brahma Heaven clenched his teeth, shot a look at Mu Zhutian standing nearby, and uttered, "You finally showed up, you’ve really made us suffer!"
His voice carried a much gentler edge than previously, evidently daunted by Ning Qi’s formidable strength, abandoning any attempt at an imperious demeanor.
"Commander Brahma, Commander Mu, why are you addressing me with such courtesy all of a sudden? Weren’t you intending just moments ago to rally them against me and my Three Domains forces?"
Ning Qi gestured toward Fei Bing and his companions, his words delivered in a cool, detached manner.
At those words, Brahma Heaven and Mu Zhutian lifted their hands to point at Ning Qi, stammering, "Y-you... what are you talking about!"
"Trying to deny it?"
Ning Qi lifted his right hand and launched a powerful palm strike.
In the heavens, a colossal five-colored hand materialized, morphing into a grinding millstone that pulverized the pair into nothingness!
They had no chance to respond before Ning Qi eradicated them in a flash.
Right up to their demise, it never crossed their minds that Ning Qi would boldly execute them in plain sight, given their status as heirs to the two Domain Masters!
"Leaning on your fathers won’t protect you!"
The Vast Realm forces down below gazed up at Ning Qi with terror in their eyes.
Has this fellow lost his mind?
To slay key personalities from the Mountain and Sea Realm directly under the watchful eye of the realm’s will?
Though unaware of the precise regulations the Mountain and Sea Realm imposed on warriors in the Spirit Realm conflict, they figured it mirrored the Vast Realm’s own.
Allies within the same alliance are forbidden from slaying one another!
Nevertheless, after he effortlessly dispatched two individuals, the Mountain and Sea Realm’s will—clearly manifesting—showed no inclination to penalize Ning Qi.
Ning Qi cast a brief look at the Vast Realm cultivators beneath him and, without hesitation, his form dissolved into mist like vanishing clouds.
Fei Bing and his group let out relieved breaths, a mix of astonishment and gratitude washing over them.
It appeared Ning Qi held no designs on them, at least sparing them from instant destruction.
The assembly swiftly turned their attention toward where Blood Slaughter Enemy and the other twenty Unity Realm elders were, assuming that was Ning Qi’s destination.
…
A thousand miles distant.
Blood Slaughter Enemy and the remaining twenty self-slain Unity Realm experts confronted the overwhelming surge of Mountain and Sea Realm Power.
Each of them resembled a solitary vessel adrift in stormy seas, vulnerable to the crashing waves; the tiniest error could spell their doom!
Yet, armed with the insight of Unity Realm wisdom, they swiftly conferred on the optimal escape strategy.
One could observe their figures radiating brilliant glows, signifying that their personal might had been elevated to its utmost limits!
Beyond that, they assembled into a vast formation that, viewed from a distance, looked like a pointed arrow.
By merging their collective energies, they sought to burst through before the Mountain and Sea Realm’s will could fully encircle them.
Escape to an area free from the Mountain and Sea Realm’s will was essential if they hoped to clash with Ning Qi.
Failing that, battling Ning Qi within his domain was akin to hauling a shark ashore to duel humans.
No matter a shark’s ferocity as ruler of the deep, on dry ground it poses no threat to people, who can dispatch it with ease.
Ning Qi’s arrival was naturally detected by the entire group.
Among those twenty self-slain Unity Realm warriors, one named Sun Lei bellowed in fury, "Ning Qi, if you dare, confront us fairly. Relying on the Mountain and Sea Realm’s will, is that your idea of courage? Even should you defeat us, I’ll never yield!"
"You lot have severed your own Unity paths, yet you have the audacity to demand I, a mere Integration Realm cultivator, face you squarely?"
Clad in pristine white, Ning Qi scoffed and unleashed a palm strike straight at them!
While his primary form’s prowess dominated the Unity Realm, his reborn incarnation had yet to ascend to that stage.
These self-slain Unity Realm adversaries offered an ideal chance to gauge his reborn self’s capabilities without tapping his original body’s reserves, serving as prime training foes.
Facing Ning Qi’s enormous five-colored divine light palm, the twenty self-slain Unity Realm fighters refrained from a unified assault.
They dreaded the Mountain and Sea Realm’s will far more than Ning Qi himself!
Thus, merely three, Sun Lei included, advanced to counter.
They stayed within the array’s bounds, as the other seventeen persisted in sustaining it, racing to flee alongside them.
Sun Lei’s frame burst forth with golden radiance, and he thrust a fist at Ning Qi’s approaching five-colored giant palm.
A gigantic golden fist silhouette emerged before the throng, akin to a Demon-Subduing Pestle, brimming with tremendous force and enveloped in a sacred aura that promised to cleanse all impurities.
The golden brilliance flared intensely, lighting up the emptiness, and smashed violently into the five-colored divine light palm.
"Boom!"
A thunderous blast erupted, fracturing the void at the point of impact, though the glows from either side held firm without fading.
Ning Qi keenly sensed and dissected the makeup of Sun Lei’s golden fist radiance.
That golden fist radiance blended three powers: the Rule of Gold, the Rule of Light, and a force specialized in subduing malevolence.
True to a Unity Realm foe, these three elements synergized seamlessly, transcending mere addition.
This Sun Lei outshone by far the Cyan Profound Immortal Sect’s Sikong Xuan, whom Ning Qi had faced before!
Still, Ning Qi simply amplified his effort slightly; the five-colored divine light palm, with its swirling hues, promptly demolished the rival’s golden fist radiance and pressed onward toward the assembly.
The onlookers couldn’t suppress their awe at this development.
They knew Sun Lei’s might well, so Ning Qi’s effortless shattering of his blow explained why the Vast Realm dispatched twenty in unison.
Earlier, they had deemed the Vast Realm’s will overly dramatic, but now they saw they had misjudged Ning Qi’s prowess.
In the blink of thought, Sun Lei’s two allies promptly unleashed their own strikes.
One brandished a sweeping blade, its qi weaving in intricate patterns, infused with the Rule of Blade and the volatile essence of the Fire Rule, hacking savagely at the five-colored divine light palm.
The other deployed a sword art, launching a Spirit Sword from behind him that splintered into myriad shadows gliding like fish in the void, syncing flawlessly with the prior assault to assail Ning Qi jointly.
"Sword cultivators through and through? Nothing fresh about it."
Ning Qi dismissed their onslaughts, remarking offhandedly.
"You insolent youth, your tongue runs bold—endure our strikes before boasting!"
Ning Qi refrained from powering up the five-colored divine light palm further; instead, a soft white luminescence seemed to radiate from his vicinity.
This white light was pristine, infiltrating every hue of the incoming assaults.
Instantly, dismay etched the features of the two assailants.
Their blade qi and sword gleams abruptly veered off course, turning inward to strike their own ranks as though Ning Qi had utterly commandeered them!
"How is this possible?"
This spectacle left the observers dumbfounded; these were Unity Realm experts, and despite self-severing their cultivation, their grasp of rules vastly outstripped Integration Realm norms.
Earlier, Sun Lei’s golden fist radiance yielding made sense under the Mountain and Sea Realm’s will, where Ning Qi reigned as Domain Master, presumably drawing on the realm’s power.
But now, these two potent barrages redirecting against them couldn’t be chalked up to the Mountain and Sea Realm Power.
It was plain that, despite his Integration Realm standing, Ning Qi’s command of rules eclipsed theirs!
This discovery shook them to the core.
With Ning Qi wielding such rule mastery, advancing to Unity Realm seemed inevitable soon enough.
The blazing blade qi and innumerable sword shadows whirled back with sharp whistles; fortunately, one among them, adept at defense, conjured a massive, sturdy stone barrier ahead to intercept the rebounding forces.
This stone barrier, plain and radiating a dull gray luster, was embedded with various crystals across its face.
Certain crystals formed sleek layers like diamond, while others embedded rare, ultra-durable ores deep within.
The blade qi and sword lights hammered into it, sparking a barrage of clanging echoes and flying embers, but it stood firm without a scratch.
The team exhaled in relief, only for Ning Qi’s voice to echo once more in their ears.
"This defensive approach holds some intrigue, yet it lacks polish, failing to fuse every mineral into a unified whole."
With those words, the five-colored divine light palm surged forward, slamming into the gray stone barrier, unleashing a devastating impact that instantly crumbled it!
Even the escape formation the group relied on buckled under the pressure.
Their eyes bulged as they watched the stone barrier disintegrate under Ning Qi’s palm, the once-solid defense splintering into multiple shards in a heartbeat.
The five-colored divine light palm, functioning like a relentless millstone, reduced certain shards to powder, while others laden with minerals ballooned outward under Ning Qi’s manipulation, hurtling like meteors toward the cluster!
