  Xiao Jin bent her legs and sprung out —Krong!— leaving two deep footsteps behind as she landed on the street floors, forming web-like fissures with herself as the epicenter!

  “Human, you’re very proud of your mortal body, aren’t you? But do you even realize, that we, the celestials, possess the strongest mortal bodies?!”

  Her three heads growled deeply and her voices mingled together into a strange and eerie choir. Then, black scales emerged from beneath her skin, reflecting a dark-gold luster. They covered her whole body as she marched over towards Zhong Yue who was still embedded in the wall surface!

  “In front of me, your mortal body, is just a clown’s joke!”

  Zhong Yue again raised his arms to defend as she slammed her palm down —Krong!— another loud boom, and a human-shaped hole was created on the temple wall. She slammed Zhong Yue through the wall into the celestial temple!

  “What an incredibly powerful mortal body!”

  Outside of the secret realm, Lei Teng and the other three Awakening Qi Practitioners’ faces changed drastically; Xiao Jin’er mortal body was too strong, especially after she was augmented with the almighty power of the Wan Xiang Realm. Her mortal body had now ventured into a whole new level!

  Zhong Yue was definitely a Qi Practitioner that was proficient in the arts of the mortal body, and yet, he was as powerless as a sheep in front of her!

  “Yin Yang Wheel!”

  Xiao Jin yelled out, her voices rumbled like thunder. The Yin Yang Wheel behind her Yuan Shen revolved rapidly —Wong!— marks appeared on the palm and the back of her hands.

  “Do you even know what Yin Yang is?”

  Xiao Jin sneered coldly, she strode through the human-shaped hole into the celestial temple. The marks on her hands were oddly patterned, the ones in her palms were patterned like scorching suns, while the ones on the back were bright moons, “On one side of my hands, I control life; while on the other, I command death. Both life and death are within my grasp. This is the abstrusity of the Yin Yang Wheel – the【Yin Yang Mark】!”

  Krong! — Krong krong krong! ——

  A loud boom came from inside of the celestial temple, then followed by a series of loud noises. One after another, the walls crumbled as Zhong Yue was blasted away, finally coming to a stop after a crashing through a few walls.

  Outside of the secret realm, the sounds of hissing could be heard as they inhaled a deep breath of cold air. Zuo Xiangsheng, Tian Yanzhong and the others turned solemn, even Qiu Jin’er’s beautiful face also changed color.

  His old and wrinkled face was cloudy and uncertain as Feng Shouzhu thought to himself, Reverse opening the Dao Yi Realm and also the next four realms, and he is still no match for the celestial Awakening expert?

  “Would you like to behold the power of the Dao Yi Realm?”

  Xiao Jin guffawed, she leaped into the air while all five wheels on her Yuan Shen’s back spun rapidly, giving out sounds like clanking metal – crisp and clear. Xiao Jin was in mid-air when she raised her hands and slammed down a palm mark right at Zhong Yue!

  In the center of her palm, there were five light wheels emerging out that assembled themselves into concentric circles — with the power of Dao Yi Realm, she had amalgamated the powers of all five realms into one!

  Before the palm mark even reached to the ground, the celestial temples beneath it were already starting to melt down. After all, they were not the real celestial temples, but merely simulations formed by the Wan Xiang Realm of the godly spirit, they were never meant to be as strong as the real Shan Shen celestial temples.

  But even so, Xiao Jin’er’s palm mark was immensely strong, far beyond the level of her peers. Even the Awakening Qi Practitioners that had opened all five realms like Lei Teng had their faces undergo a drastic change as they grew unsettled at the vast disparity.

  Krong——

  As her palm landed down, the celestial temples were devastated, the ground sunk down and a pithole of over hundred feet in radius, tens of feet in depth was formed.

  However, this was only the first strike, the second strike came and another loud sound reverberated the whole secret realm. The pithole was made another ten feet deeper, and became a 180 feet in radius!

  Krong krong ——

  Five loud booms followed one after another, the pithole was struck larger and deeper, and eventually, a mini abyss of 2600 feet in radius and 400 feet in depth was formed — one could tell how terrifyingly strong her palm mark, that was backed by the synergized power of the five realms, was!

  There were no crushed rocks that splattered into the air nor was there any dust carried away by the winds. They were all packed and pressurized closely into the ground from the impact force, not even able to leave an inch off from the soils.

  “Little bugs like you humans dare to even think of contending with the noble and high celestials. What an excessive amount confidence you have there, overestimating yourself.”

  Xiao Jin sneered coldly, she stood up slowly and walked towards the bottom of the pithole, she said indifferently, “This battle, is clearly over. And now, it’s time to feast. Your mortal body isn’t too bad, you are still able to survive even after taking down all this punishment I’ve bestowed upon you. I can tell, that you’ll be very, very succulent when I devour you.”

  She reached out her hands and clenched onto Zhong Yue’s neck, it was right at this moment, a strong and staunch hand grasped onto her wrist. Xiao Jin was shocked, and in a split second, she felt a surge of strength in his hand as she was hurled into the air!

  Peng——

  She crashed into a pillar in a palace, and the impact force crushed the gigantic pillar that could only be enclosed by a few people clasping hands together.

  Then, a figure bolted into the palace like a flash of lightning, slamming his hand onto her chest and caving it inwards as he pushed her away. He went crashing through the building using her body as a shield. Peng peng peng—— one after another, she slammed and crashed through countless pillars, crushing the foundation of the palace, causing it to wobble and quake violently before crumbling down into rubble.

  Zhong Yue’s right hand pressed onto Xiao Jin’s chest, he strode forward and broke through the speed of sound, crashing into palace after palace. Meanwhile, his other arm reached out and battered violently onto Xiao Jin’s heads!

  “Senior Martial Sister Xiao Jin, I’ve just advanced into the level of Awakening, it’s true that I don’t really know how to utilize the powers of the realms. And right here, I’d like to thank you for showing me the way. Wu Xing Wheel, open! Wan Xiang Wheel, open! Shen Cai Wheel, open! Yin Yang Wheel, open! Dao Yi Wheel, open!”

  The fingers on his left hand quivered, the Wu Xing Wheel emerged in front of his palm, following by the Wan Xiang Wheel, Shen Cai Wheel, Yin Yang Wheel and lastly, the Dao Yi Wheel. He mimicked Xiao Jins previous actions and amalgamated the powers of all five realms together. He slammed his palm onto Xiao Jin’s head and crushed her head into her chest, causing her chest to bulged out abnormally.

  Krong——

  Xiao Jin was launched flying, crushing through two palaces; dust and crushed rock filled the air while she was buried beneath a crushed wall.

  The development of the battle was incredibly rapid and intense, dazzling and stunning each and every pairs of eyes. In the last second, Zhong Yue was badly beaten up by Xiao Jin and the next, Xiao Jin became the one getting beaten up!

  Who could have ever foreseen such a drastic change in the battle situation?

  “Something’s not right.”

  The high priest of Shan Shen celestial race turned and told the priest beside him, “Logically, the Zhong Shan Clan member has just opened the Yuan Shen five realms, his prowess can’t be this strong, surely weaker than Xiao Jin. And yet, Xiao Jin was just now suppressed by him, what happened here suggests that his five realms aren’t any weaker than Xiao Jin. Something’s very wrong here.”

  All of the other priests around him nodded, in
comparison to Xiao Jin, Zhong Yue’s five Yuan Shen realms were incredibly small, nearly negligible. And yet, the powers in his realms were about the same as Xiao Jin.

  They were sharp-witted experts, the other Qi Practitioners could only tell that Zhong Yue was turning the tide, winning the battle; but they could perceive more than that.

  “I see, it’s the reverse opening of the five wheels!”

  The high priest of Gui Shen Celestial Race suddenly said, “Tens of thousands of years ago, a human had opened the five wheels in reverse and eventually became a god. He brought a batch of human slaves and rebelled from the East Barren, killing the demon god, Tian Myriad Mother, who had inhabited the Great Wilderness. It was after that, when he created the Swords Gate. This man ... was the first headmaster of Swords Gate, a human that was once enslaved by the East Barren! This Zhong Shan Clan member, he is the same as the first headmaster, one who has opened the five realms in reverse to acquire otherworldly power and potential. That’s why he was able to suppress Xiao JIn!”

  The other high priests stiffened their hearts, the Gui Shen Celestial Race was old and ancient, their temples stored numerous records regarding the matters and events that had happened in the land, ocean and even overseas. Ages ago, the incident of the Swords Gate headmaster rebelling out of East Barren was an earth-shaking event.

  One of the priest mumbled to himself, “Reverse opening the five realms, is there really a Qi Practitioners that was able to do it? Is he really a human?

  This brat of the human race, he must not live… all of the high priests thought to themselves in unison.

  Chapter 179: Let Me Tell You A Secret |

  “If the【 Sword Seven Style】 could not deal any damage to you, then what if I add another two Sword Qi? 【 Sword Nine Style】!”

  In the secret realm, Zhong Yue moved at ghostly speed and as he ran, he pointed out his fingers and one after another, sword silk slithered like snakes in the air and flew into the dust storm. Those were the nine Sword Qi that formed the【Sword Nine Style】in the 【Sixty Four Style Sword Cocoon】and they enshrouded Xiao Qin who was trapped in the dust storm. The two extra Sword Qi added by Zhong Yue was his Yin & Yang Qi that he cultivated into Sword Qi.

  Previously, he was suppressed by Xiao Qin as he did not know the technique of using the power of the five great secret realm, which prevented him from retaliating. But after he managed to learn the technique by interpreting on the movements of Xiao Qin, he immediately gained the technique and thus, ultimately suppressed Xiao Qin.

  Other than that, he also had the precious knowledge possessed by a paragon of the monster race on the various secret realms of the Awakening level Qi Practitioners – which was the insights of the current generation Saint City Lord, Shi Buyi!

  And it was the knowledge and insights of Shi Buyi that allowed him to unleash great power with a lower cultivation base, thus, allowing him to turn the tables and suppress Xiao Qin!

  As soon as the【Sword Nine Style】was formed, the rocks, walls and bricks crumbled before they were cut into pieces by the Sword Qi and blood could be seen flowing out from the debris faintly.

  The Xiao Qin’s two heads roared and the ground trembled as the lady burrowed underground to evade the【Sword Nine Style】.

  The nine Sword Qi followed behind her and they maintained the formation of 【Sword Nine Style】sword array. However, Xiao Qin managed to shake off the pursuing Sword Qi as the sword array was unable to operate efficiently underground.

  Zhong Yue on the other hand, dashed forward and he launched a golden Sword Qi rain onto the ground in front of him with the golden wings that appeared behind his back, just like two giant golden turbines operating at maximum speed. The golden Sword Qi then cut the ground open before flying straight towards Xiao Qin!

  The ground that was ripped apart by the Sword Qi was burnt by the heat contained in the Golden Crow Wings, even beginning to show signs of melting!

  Zhong Yue then continued to pursue the escaping Xiao Qin and as he continued to swing his wings, he demolished the celestial temples and celestial palaces in his path. Wherever he went, the buildings collapsed and shattered!

  With Zhong Yue high frequency barrage, Xiao Qin’s path of retreat was completely cut off by the【Sword Nine Style】’s sword array and the sword feather launched by Zhong Yue’s Golden Crow Wings, leaving her no choice but to continue advancing.

  Finally, she flew out from the ground and she took on the golden sword feathers directly as soon as she flew out. As she tried to withstand the attacks with her fleshly body, she suffered countless sword wounds, causing her blood to gush out from the open wounds. Following right after the sword feathers was the sword array formed by the 【Sword Nine Style】!

  The golden sword feathers and the【Sword Nine Style】ripped her flesh apart and left heavy injuries on her body but fortunately for her, she was strong enough and with her five great secret realms, she managed to regenerate herself quickly, preventing the Sword Qi from threatening her life.

  “【Celestial Moon Howling Art】’s 【Moon Howling】!”

  Behind her back, the three Pan Ao head of her Yuan Shen roared and three moons flew out from the huge mouths of these Pan Ao before the three moons shot towards Zhong Yue.

  One of the heads howled towards the moon and a moon clashed with the sword feathers, the second head howled to the moon and disrupted the channeling of【Sword Nine Style】.

  Zhong Yue was shocked and he raised up his hands as the third Pan Ao head howled at the moon and released tremendous sound waves that pushed Zhong Yue backwards and caused his breath to become haggard. As the sound waves pushed Zhong Yue backwards, they destroyed everything they came in contact with, sending bricks flying everywhere and creating a huge pothole!

  After the three howls, Zhong Yue had been pushed back a few hundred miles and the sound waves blew away the roof of the palaces while tearing those palace apart!

  Whereas for Zhong Yue, his hands were hit so badly that his skin became flayed to expose the naked flesh beneath!

  “The Combat Yuan Shen of the Xiao Mang celestial race lives up to their fame!” praised the countless Qi Practitioners observing the battle outside of the secret realm.

  Xiao Qin stood in the air and she reached her hands to her chest and pulled out her head before twisting the bloodied head and fixing the dislocated neck bone.

  Zhong Yue regained his balance as well and they stared at each other from afar, each of them no longer taking the other lightly.

  A decent opponent.

  That was the same thought that appeared in their minds as they stared at each other.

  However, as compared to Zhong Yue, Xiao Qin suffered heavier injuries as Zhong Yue checked the toughness of the walls of the celestial temples and palaces and the ground as well. Therefore, he had taken the toughness of the surrounding into account as he took on the attacks of Xiao Qin bravely, preventing himself from suffering heavy damage.

  Xiao Qin, on the other side, never bothered to check her surroundings at all due to her hubris. A few moments ago when she burrowed underneath the ground, she invariably placed herself at a disadvantage and she was almost nailed to death in the underground when Zhong Yue launched his golden sword qi attacks.

  When there was a decent challenge, those who were more observant, careful and calm would definitely suffer less injuries and gain the upper hand.

  Too bad I couldn't use the 【Monster God Ming King’s Art】 or the Fang Blade lest I expose my identity as Long Yue. I cannot summon my moon spirit as well or the Xiao Mang Celestial Race would immediately know that I killed Xiao Chuqing.

  Zhong Yue squinted his eyes as these thoughts ran through his mind. Unlike the other skills and spirits, he could freely use the Great Sun Golden Crow Yuan Shen as he wished. Someone in the Swords Gate had already long suspected that he possessed the Innate Sun Spirit Body and had obtained the spirit of the Golden Crow, something that would have been difficult to hide from the eyes and ears the ce
lestial races.

  It is slightly difficult to kill this woman with her incredibly strong body physique with these handicaps, especially with not being able to use the【Monster God Ming King’s Art】, the Fang Blade, and the moon spirit. But … at least this way there is at least some challenge!

  Zhong Yue shouted and the wings of the Yuan Shen expanded while the Great Sun Golden Crow Yuan Shen stimulated the five great Yuan Shen secret realm, unleashing the full potential of his Combat Yuan Shen!

  “Senior Martial Sister Xiao Qin, Xiao Chuqing and Xiao Chuwen’s names all had the word “Chu” in it while you and Xiao Shan do not. I wonder if this could be a symbol between the differences of your positions in your race?” said a laughing Zhong Yue.

  Xiao Qin stared at the Great Sun Golden Crow behind the back of Zhong Yue as the five wheels spun, something that only occurs only when the five great secret realms were operated to maximum power.

  She too, needed some time to regain her bearings and so she replied, “Those who bear the name of ‘Chu’ were born in the noble families, except that their bloodlines were slightly impure. Other than that, there are also those with the name of ‘Xian’ in between their names. These would be the pure-blood descendants of the high priest.”

  “With that said, Xiao Chuqing must have come from a noble family?”

  Zhong Yue smiled and said, “Which makes me even more curious is which figure of your race she is the daughter of. Care to enlighten me?”

  “Are you trying to bait me into tell you something?”

  Xiao Qin’s heart thumped and the Great Sun Golden Crow behind Zhong Yue’s back flapped its wings and flew towards Xiao Qin in a blazing fire. At the same time, Zhong Yue dashed forward at high speed that was nowhere slower than the Great Sun Golden Crow!

  As soon as her mind was shaken by Zhong Yue, she had invariably started to expose some openings. She was a celestial race with a tenacious will akin to an unshakeable mountain, but as she almost exposed the secrets related to Xiao Chuqing, along with Zhong Yue’s unstoppable aura that felt like it could topple mountains and trample anything in his paths, Xiao Qin’s will was greatly shaken, giving Zhong Yue the chance he needed!
