Cultivation: But Not a Game-Chapter 304 - 214: Yin Yang Demon Sect’s Sacred Treasure, the Yin Yang Divine Mirror
Then, both sides contacted the owner of the competition arena. A disciple of the Celestial Immortal City Lord from this Zhongyuan City acted as a notary for their life-and-death contract.
The life-and-death contract was recognized by both parties, notarized by the Earth Immortal elder, and witnessed by many spectators, thus it took effect.
A shadow of an Earth Immortal appeared, loudly declaring:
"According to the agreement of both parties, this battle will determine superiority as well as life and death. Except for props, pills, and spirit pets, any other means can be used. If killed, one will be resurrected within the arena until one side is completely annihilated."
Immediately, the Earth Immortal waved his sleeve, and the arena was completely sealed. Resurrection could only occur within the Grotto Heaven, and teleportation items could not be used to leave.
As the Grotto Heaven was sealed, neither side tested anymore. Su Yu directly tossed the Nine Ring Immortal Banner he was holding with his left hand, turning into a white light shooting into the sky.
A full thirty thousand mana burnt as the Nine Ring Immortal Banner exploded at an altitude of ten thousand meters, transforming into an Immortal Banner three thousand meters tall, crashing down like a mountain.
Lü Sheng, without hesitation, activated the Yin-Yang Demon to form the Yin-Yang Millstone Array, summoning a demon god nearly a thousand meters tall, holding up the descending Immortal Banner like Pangu holding the sky.
"Boom!"
The demon god shook violently, shattered, and the Immortal Banner sunk into the turbulent wave, but the next second, forty demon arms stretched out from the turbulent wave, as twenty-four Yin-Yang Demons forcefully lifted the Immortal Banner.
The twenty-four Yin-Yang Demons, each possessing mana equivalent to Lü Sheng, had powerful bodies, their collective strength was astonishing.
Su Yu landed on the peak of the Nine Ring Immortal Banner, wielding the Nine Heavens Purple Thunder Hammer, sending a purple thunderbolt into the surging demonic qi, and slapped the Immortal Banner. The engravings on the banner lit up, and a hundred-level Vajra and Flame Demons flew out from the reliefs, forming an array in the sky, and countless Binghuo Divine Thunders rained down.
Lü Sheng, without hesitation, took out a black seal entwined with five demons, spat a mouthful of vital energy into the great seal, then tossed it into the air.
The great seal rapidly expanded, and the demons entwined on it came to life, stretching their bodies, transforming into ferocious demon gods, spewing torrents of demonic fire, showering the Immortal Banner with Demon Fire Yin Thunder like machine guns.
Su Yu immediately slapped the banner, summoning over two hundred Vajra Warriors and Flame Warriors that soared into the sky, clashing head-on with the five demon seal.
Next, he summoned the Wind God’s Order, and twenty-five strands of Divine Wind Power appeared above Lü Sheng and the twenty-four Yin-Yang Demons, but some invisible force held them in place, preventing the Divine Wind from descending.
"Not bad."
Su Yu resolutely abandoned these ordinary spells and artifacts. With a flick of his finger, strands of Sword Qi flew out and disappeared into the void, simultaneously urging the Cyan Gang and Purple Thunder Dual Swords to ascend, splitting into hundreds of Sword Qi, attacking the five demon seal.
"Even knows swordsmanship, flashy."
Lü Sheng was not one to be outdone, immediately revealing his ultimate treasure, a treasure mirror that divided Yin and Yang, flipping it towards him:
"Behold my Divine Mirror!"
The moment he summoned the Divine Mirror, Su Yu’s powerful sixth sense felt a chill down his spine, for the first time feeling an overwhelming threat.
"Cloud Protection!"
He resolutely activated the Cyan Cloud Cover with its ultimate move attached.
In an instant, the intense threat made him feel the urge to transform, but there was no time to do so.
As expected, the mirror light flashed and hit Su Yu, an irresistible force immobilizing him.
"Damn!"
Su Yu guessed that the treasure would be powerful but did not anticipate its extremeness, as his always invincible Immune to All Skill failed to activate, freezing both himself and his treasure, leading to a silent loss.
Unlike confinement, the Divine Mirror directly immobilized him and the nearby Cyan Cloud Cover, rendering the Immune to All Skill ineffective.
Moreover, the power of the Divine Mirror was so exaggerated that it could immobilize even his thoughts, making it difficult to move his mind at all.
After immobilizing him with a single blow, Lü Sheng flipped the Divine Mirror again, firing a black light that struck the immobilized Su Yu.
The black light swept across Su Yu’s body, directly sending his soul out of his body, but there were strands of colorful light on his body linking his soul, the soul unable to escape a meter before being forcibly dragged back by the colorful light.
The Celestial Might Star Bone can be immune to Celestial Immortal level Enchanting God Skills, mind attacks, soul possession, and other spiritual attacks.
This Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror can expel the soul from the body, making it a soul-targeting attack, yet it was exempted by the Immortal Bone.
The Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror was indeed formidable; if it were any other artifact, it might not have reacted at all.
Lü Sheng was momentarily surprised, decisively ordering twenty-four Yin-Yang Demons to change formation, twelve transforming into Pure Yang Demons to lift the Nine Ring Immortal Banner collectively, while the other twelve Yin-Yang Demons separated and formed a grand array, entrapping the motionless Su Yu along with the banner into the Yin-Yang Millstone Array amidst the boiling demonic qi, Demon Fire Yin Thunders simmering.
"Taiyin Godslaying Skill!"
The outer twelve Yin-Yang Demons quickly transformed into Pure Yin Demons, each wielding a large flag. Within the Yin-Yang Millstone Array, the Yin-Yang Demonic Qi swiftly transformed into the purest yin power, transforming into the power of Taiyin under Lü Sheng’s command and converting into over two thousand Taiyin Demon Soldiers the size of swords, spears, and halberds that attacked relentlessly.
Fortunately, Su Yu reacted quickly to activate the Cloud Protection ahead of time, possessing over a million defense and extremely high damage reduction, withstanding the onslaught of two thousand Taiyin Demon Soldiers without budging, the protective light barely fluctuating.
Seeing this, Lü Sheng once again rotated the Divine Mirror, the Yin-Yang energies blending into a gray light, bombarding sharply.
The Cyan Cloud Cover, which hadn’t flinched from the assault of two thousand Taiyin Demon Soldiers, wobbled violently, its defense plummeting drastically.
After a consecutive barrage of Yin-Yang energy pillars and the assault of two thousand Taiyin Demon Soldiers, Lü Sheng rotated the Divine Mirror a third time within fifteen seconds, immobilizing the almost freed Su Yu again, the Yin-Yang energy pillars continued their assault along with the two thousand Taiyin Demon Soldiers, breaking through the Cyan Cloud Cover within an instant after enduring for over ten seconds.
Immediately, the Golden Feather Robe’s protective Divine Wind triggered automatically upon being attacked, forming a protective Divine Wind with a defense of thirty hundred thousand and a strength of one thousand.
Yet, it crumbled in less than three seconds, and two thousand Taiyin Demon Soldiers instantly engulfed Su Yu.
A series of clanging metallic sounds erupted, as Su Yu’s physique of 14200 made it difficult for the Taiyin Demon Soldiers to break his defense.
At this moment, the magical artifacts showed their spirit. Many Vajra Generals and Flame God Generals returned to support, blocking the Taiyin Demon Soldiers and taking a breath. However, the Demon Soldiers continuously relied on Taiyin Demonic Qi for support. The divine Yin-Yang Qi Pillars of the Upper God Mirror were immensely powerful, targeting and instantly vanquishing whoever they pointed at. The generals were forced to retreat step by step, each one being smashed and returning their True Spirits to the Immortal Banner.
"Is that it?"
The audience was stunned, with some showing disdain:
"I thought having the courage to sign a life-and-death contract meant he was formidable, but it seems he doesn’t even have the power to fight back?"
"That’s not entirely true. It’s not that he’s not capable, but rather that this Lu Sheng is too powerful."
Someone knowledgeable explained:
"If I’m not mistaken, the treasure mirror in Lu Sheng’s hand should be the Yin-Yang Divine Mirror, the treasured artifact of the Yin Yang Demon Sect. It’s supposed to be a tenth-grade treasure, but to allow him to use it early, part of its power was sealed, reducing it to ninth-grade."
"To be bestowed the sect’s treasured artifact early on, Lu Sheng must be highly regarded by the Yin Yang Demon Sect, a designated true disciple candidate."
"Not just a true disciple candidate, only the holy sons of the Demon Sect receive such treatment!"
"That can’t be possible, right?"
Even many of the elite participants from various sects were a bit overwhelmed:
"Isn’t being a holy son only possible if you’ve established a super-grade Immortal Foundation..."
The crowd suddenly fell silent.
"Being able to cultivate twelve pairs of innate Yin-Yang Demon Heads during the Foundation Establishment stage has a significant probability of creating an Immortal Foundation."
"Even if an Immortal Foundation cannot be formed, it is still a first-grade Dao Foundation, and combined with the power of twelve pairs of Yin-Yang Demon Heads, the strength far exceeds others. At the very least, securing true transmission is assured, and granting treasures early is not an issue."
"Wow, that’s strong."
"Then isn’t Su Yu..."
"Just unfortunate for him, his strength is indeed quite good, but bad luck brought him against this opponent."
The discussion was almost unanimously in favor of Lu Sheng being superior, but some disagreed, saying:
"You really underestimate him. He just lost the initiative; he’s been held for so long but is still not defeated."
"So what? Lu Sheng’s Divine Mirror can keep him frozen continuously. How can he fight back without the power to resist?"
"It’s too overpowered."
Within the Grotto Heaven, Lu Sheng has used the Yin-Yang Divine Mirror twice to hold Su Yu, then activated the mirror to shoot out the Yin-Yang Qi Pillars, instantly killing each of the generals.
Lu Sheng’s Yin-Yang Divine Mirror is too formidable; it can hold Su Yu for fifteen seconds at a time, with a quick cooldown, allowing continuous seamless immobilization.
In over a hundred seconds, the Yin-Yang Qi Pillars killed all the generals protecting Su Yu one by one, and he showed no sign of awakening.
Without the generals in front, over a thousand Taiyin Demon Soldiers overwhelmed him again, accompanied by a series of crisp clanging sounds.
"Even the physique is this high!"
At this moment, Lu Sheng acknowledged the man before him as a formidable rival. If it wasn’t for the mystical power of the Yin-Yang Divine Mirror enabling seamless control, he might have found it hard to defeat him.
The more he recognized this, the more ruthless his attacks became. He directly activated the Yin-Yang Divine Mirror, unleashing a Yin-Yang Qi Pillar onto Su Yu’s chest. The surface of his magical robe and skin immediately turned gray, his health halved in an instant, clearly another hit would certainly kill.
Lu Sheng acted on this, raising the Divine Mirror to unleash a gray light. But just as he’d held Su Yu for over dozens of rounds, Su Yu suddenly opened his eyes.
Lu Sheng’s expression changed:
"Not good, why is his resistance so high?"
He was clearly caught off guard and immediately flipped the Yin-Yang Divine Mirror to reactivate it, but the awakened Su Yu’s mind shifted, and a protective shield rose around him. The Yin-Yang Qi Pillar pierced through the shield, knocking down over three hundred thousand Qi and Blood, leaving only forty thousand, which could only endure two more hits.
Su Yu didn’t even glance at his dire situation, extending his hand to summon the Cyan Gang Sword. He lifted his gaze towards Lu Sheng, who was adjusting the treasure mirror. Visible to the naked eye, runes on the treasure mirror lit up as a white light flashed and rushed forth.
"Time Sword, overdraft the future!"
Su Yu decisively unleashed his ultimate move, channeling future power into the Cyan Gang Sword.
"Slash!"
The sword light of the Cyan Gang Sword surged, flashing to kill forward, the blade slicing into the white light.
"Bang!"
A crisp sound rang out, and the white light was cleaved into two.
"True Sword Intent?"
Jiushao Sword Disciple Chi Jianxin, observing, was taken aback, quickly turning to look at Wanyu and asked:
"Since when did your Xuanzhen Immortal Sect get so extravagant, having a swordsman prodigy who comprehends True Sword Intent during the Foundation Establishment stage without joining the sword lineage?"
The true disciple of Xuanzhen Immortal Sect, Wanyu, was equally surprised, spreading his hands:
"I don’t know! I’ve been out for the past few years and haven’t heard anything about this."
