First Immortal of the Sword-Chapter 1289 - Nothing Has Ever Been More Satisfying

Wisps of dreamlike, ethereal immortal light appeared around Yan Daolin. His aura silently transformed.

He was like the incarnation of an immortal from on high, standing proudly beyond the nine heavens!

Shockingly, even his numerous wounds were rapidly knitting back together.

Wei Shan, Meng Changyun, and the others couldn’t help but react to this development. Is this the majesty of someone who’s taken half a step onto the Path of Transcendence?

Su Yi’s gaze narrowed. This really is the aura of a half-step Transcendent. His cultivation shows signs of imminent sublimation, and his power carries a hint of the charm of the Path of Transcendence.

This was where the Temple Master got stuck back then.

“I’ve indeed acquired the full legacy of the founder of Sky Crow Mountain. It doesn’t just contain a cultivation technique for the path of Transcendence; it has numerous secret arts suitable for a Transcendent as well,” Yan Daolin said casually. “Since you want to test them, I naturally won’t be stingy.”

With that, he clenched his fist and threw a punch, with all the sound and momentum of an immortal mountain in motion.

Lightning quick and tyrannical.

His imposing aura was far more powerful than before!

Any ordinary cultivator who saw him would likely mistake him for an immortal out of a legend!

That power completely surpassed the bounds of the World King Realm! freewebn ovel.com

Boom!

Heaven and earth overturned, and all of creation crumbled. With just one punch, Yan Daolin split the landscape and suppressed the world.

Su Yi didn’t retreat.

His hands condensed into a sword seal, and he clashed with Yan Daolin’s fist with all his might.

But a deafening blast rang out just moments later, and Su Yi was sent flying back, his body in tatters and his skin split in countless places.

Wei Shang and Meng Changyun were more nervous than ever before. They felt chills in their hands and feet.

How is he supposed to fight that?

“Temple Master, might I ask what you thought of that punch?” Yan Daolin asked leisurely from beneath the dome of heaven.

His skin glowed radiantly, with nigh imperceptible hints of immortal light. As he walked through the sky, he was like an immortal out wandering. Every movement drew upon the force of the surrounding skies.

“You’re still inferior to me at my former peak,” said Su Yi, wiping the blood from his lips.

His injuries were far too severe, but his gaze was as calm as ever. It didn’t ripple in the slightest.

“Then do you think you have any hope of victory?” asked Yan Daolin.

As he spoke, he raised his right arm like a whip and swung it through the air.

Radiant fist force burst forth, swathed in an immortal glow. It bore through the skies and cleaved at Su Yi.

It was simply too fast. Like an axe through rotten wood—nothing could stand in its way!

Su Yi didn’t retreat, nor did he dodge. His sleeves billowed around him, and a multi-layered sword curtain appeared.

Each layer was condensed of a supreme Law: Reincarnation, Restricting the Profound, Flying Light, and Profound Ruin. Added together, they were like a wall standing in front of the attack.

But a moment later——

Bang!!!

An explosion rang out, almost shattering their eardrums.

One of the sword curtains exploded as that unstoppable fist force bore a hole right through it.

Immediately afterward, the remaining sword curtains exploded too.

A rain of light scattered as fist force tore a startling rift open in the skies. At the end of the rift, Su Yi was sent flying ruthlessly back.

A single punch could actually be so tyrannical!

“Young Master!” Wei Shan’s face filled with concern.

“How is this...” murmured Meng Changyun, his entire body drenched in cold sweat.

The Netherworld King’s heart clenched. Heaven and earth could crumble around him, and that guy wouldn’t even bat an eye. Don’t tell me he’s really going to lose here today?

Lu Yun’s spirits soared, and his blood heated up. The Supreme Leader has been planning this for a long, long time. Today, his plans have finally come to fruition. When the populace learns that the Temple Master’s reincarnation has met his end at our leader’s hands... what kind of waves will sweep across the stars?

“In a competition of the Grand Dao, your reincarnation is ultimately inferior to my clone,” whispered Yan Daolin, looking utterly calm and composed.

Su Yi’s body was badly battered, his blood flowing in streams. His handsome face was so pale that it was almost transparent.

It seemed he could topple at a moment’s notice.

But he couldn’t help but laugh in response to Yan Daolin’s declaration. “Victory and defeat are not yet determined, but here you are, raising your tail into the air. Are you happy with yourself?”

Yan Daolin laughed and admitted it. “I’ve endured for far too long. Now, the day that I defeat my long-standing foe has finally arrived. It’s truly difficult to hide my delight. How can I not be happy with myself? I’d even go so far as to say that I've never felt more satisfied in all my long years of life.”

As he spoke, his attacks never stopped. He took a step forward and attacked once more.

How could he possibly give Su Yi any opportunity to catch his breath?

But he wasn’t in a rush. He was on guard against Su Yi’s death throes.

However, it was then that Su Yi gazed up at the dome of heaven and whispered, “Haven’t I been waiting for this day to come too?”

Yan Daolin seemed to sense something. He suddenly looked up.

He wasn’t sure when they’d gotten there, but tribulation clouds were silently gathering beneath the firmament.

The clouds were dense, heavy, and silent, like an enormous, pitch-black funnel hanging upside-down beneath the heavens. Just gazing upon it from afar was enough to send chills through one’s heart.

“You’re undergoing tribulation?” Yan Daolin’s brow furrowed. “At a time like this, how is that any different from throwing your life away? Have I really pushed you so far into a corner that you can only resort to something like this?”

He really was surprised, and he found it difficult to believe.

Meanwhile, Wei Shan and Meng Changyun were both bewildered, and their hearts were heavy. Is he... hoping to face death head-on and overcome it?

But even the slightest misstep could lead to irreversible disaster!

Only the Netherworld King seemed confident. Her eyes lit up, and she spoke with staunch assurance. “Father, His Excellency the Temple Master is sure to win!”

She and Su Yi had once explored the Burial Ground of the Dao together. She’d witnessed how Su Yi underwent tribulation atop the Platform of Rebirth firsthand!

Wei Shang and Meng Changyun were stunned, but before they could react, Yan Daolin attacked Su Yi with all his might.

Boom!

Immortal light flowed, filling the heavens. Fist force soared through the skies, blotting out the sun and descending upon Su Yi.

Alas, it was one step too late.

Su Yi had already soared into the sky and into the depths of the tribulation clouds.

That fist soared into the dome of heaven, but when it collided with the tribulation clouds, a streak of calamitous power instantly shattered it.

Even more terrifyingly, tribulation light followed the path of the fist force and slammed straight into Yan Daolin.

Boom!

The entire stretch of sky collapsed.

Although Yan Daolin narrowly escaped in time, the shock sent chills coursing down his spine. This is far more terrifying than a tribulation of Cosmic Enlightenment. Its calamitous power is beyond imagination!

Yan Daolin suddenly raised his head and watched as Su Yi soared into the tribulation clouds. He couldn’t help but frown. “You’re nothing but a moth to the flame. Temple Master, you bastard... would you rather die beneath your tribulation than at my hands?”

All eyes gazed into the depths of the churning tribulation clouds. Their light surged, and an indescribably calamitous aura spread outward.

The vastness of heaven and earth was enshrouded in apocalyptic hues.

Even someone as mighty as Yan Daolin couldn’t help but gasp, his hair standing on end. He couldn’t fathom that this was a Tribulation of Oneness.

The others present felt stifled. Chills coursed through their entire bodies, and they were visibly astonished.

This was the true might of the heavens. It was like a taboo. Before it, everyone felt terrified and as paltry and insignificant as ants.

It was then that, beneath the crowd’s disbelieving gazes, Su Yi soared all the way into the heart of the tribulation.

But just when the crowd thought Su Yi was about to perish beneath its lightning...

Boom!!!

The tribulation clouds full of calamitous power burst and split.

The dazzling tribulation light scattered into a resplendent rain of light, enveloping Su Yi therein.

The crowd was flabbergasted and completely tongue-tied.

Even if you’d hit them over the head, they would never have guessed that Su Yi would undergo tribulation in such a tyrannical, unique way. He’d charged right into the clouds, shattering them and breaking their endless tribulation light!

“Was that divine tribulation made of paper!?” Lu Yun’s mind buzzed. He was so shocked that his jaw practically fell off.

“In all my long years of cultivation, this was my first time seeing such a terrifying, calamitous tribulation. But it was also my first time seeing someone destroy their tribulation in a single attack before it even descended...” Meng Changyun couldn’t help but blurt. His eyes widened.

Wei Shan clucked his tongue. “The young master I knew wasn’t this ferocious.”

“Father, to His Excellency the Temple Master, overcoming a tribulation is no more difficult than eating or drinking. With time, you’ll get used to it...” said the Netherworld King with an air of having experienced it all before.

She’d once witnessed an even more terrifying tribulation on the Platform of Rebirth. That tribulation shattered the Temple Master’s physical body and soul.

Yet in the end, he miraculously reforged himself!

The way he’d undergone this particular tribulation was still unreasonable, but it was much less startling by comparison.

The tribulation clouds dispersed, and the rain of light bathed Su Yi’s body, coursing through him like electricity and triggering a complete metamorphosis.

His fleshly body, soul, and cultivation... were all entirely reforged as his essence, qi, and spirit soared past the threshold of the Oneness Realm!

Like a phoenix undergoing rebirth in Nirvanic flames.

“I miscalculated,” whispered Yan Daolin. An overcast look appeared on his face.

He finally understood the source of the Temple Master’s confidence. He was obviously planning to use this ‘life-or-death trial’ to prove his Dao and achieve Oneness all along!

He was so strong even before breaking through. If I let him overcome his tribulation and achieve Oneness, how terrifyingly strong will he become?

Yan Daolin could no longer hold himself back. He soared into the sky and attacked.

Boom!

His clothes billowed around him as punches fell like rain. In the blink of an eye, he’d punched over a hundred times. Dazzling immortal light burst forth, illuminating the entire landscape.

The crowd’s hearts clenched.

All of them could tell that Su Yi had reached a critical juncture of his breakthrough. His cultivation boundary had yet to stabilize, and he was extremely weak. If Yan Daolin stopped him here, everything he’d achieved thus far would likely end in ruin!

But against all expectations, Su Yi just stood there, entirely unmoving. The rain of light still lingering around him dissipated the incoming fist force of each and every one of Yan Daolin’s punches.

Yan Daolin’s heart shook, his expression instantly grimmer.

“Yan Daolin, are you still feeling smug and satisfied?”

Su Yi’s calm voice emanated from beneath the distant dome of heaven.

Yan Daolin sank into silence, then suddenly burst into laughter. “If I seek mutual destruction, I’ll just lose my clone, while you... will face certain doom.”

Yan Daolin’s eyes flashed, blazing like fire. “In that case, this battle will ultimately still end in my victory, now won’t it?”

As he spoke, his robes billowed, and his qi rumbled and boomed. Wisps of immortal light caught ablaze.

Then, he shot straight toward Su Yi!
