Chapter 600: Fight, Breakthrough…
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Hao Ren had intentionally lost the Sky-Turning Stamp to Hongyuan Master and now had successfully retrieved it. Everything was done according to plan.
Through this, Hao Ren had successfully alienated the two sides.
To Fifth Heaven cultivators who lacked resources, especially Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, such a good dharma treasure was very much desired. That was why Hongyuan Master felt discontent when he had to give it back.
“Create a formation!” Mo Lianshan saw that Hao Ren took back the Sky-Turning Stamp; he was angry but also scared that the Grand Uncle-Master of Sky Mountain Sect would blame him for losing the dharma treasure. Therefore, he ordered the other Sky Mountain Sect cultivators to surround Hao Ren immediately.
The Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect mainly focused on practicing defensive array formations, but the Core Formation Realm cultivators were adept at offensive array formations.
There were many strong cultivators on Sixth Heaven. Therefore, the Core Formation Realm cultivators would need to work together to kill the enemy.
These four cultivators who dashed forward with Mo Lianshan were all disciples of the First Elder of Sky Mountain Sect and were like close brothers with Mo Lianshan. They had practiced this Chained Five Stars Array Formation countless times and had even successfully killed tens of top-tier Core Formation Realm cultivators with it.
Regardless of how many people Hao Ren called out, they would have relevant array formations to attack!
The Sky Mountain Sect’s largest array formation was made of 250 Core Formation Realm cultivators and was called Nine Sky Star-Breaking Array Formation. This array formation could even kill any cultivator below mid-tier Nascent Soul Realm!
All five cultivators were using swords right now!
Hao Ren put back the Sky-Turning Stamp. In front of such an array formation, he would instead use his familiar Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll.
The 320 Sword energies spun around him counter-clockwise, and they looked like crowds of fishes that were swimming in the sea.
“Attack!” Mo Lianshan commanded.
Hao Ren had already seriously injured two Sky Mountain Sect cultivators. They could already use this as a reason to kill Hao Ren.
Five sharp swords pierced toward five different spots on Hao Ren’s body.
These swords were not controlled by hands but rather nature essence! Sword-Controlling Technique!
“Release!” Hao Ren’s sword energies split into five groups, and each group aimed for one of the five swords.
Out of the five Core Formation Realm cultivators, Mo Lianshan and one other were at top-tier Core Formation Realm while the other three were mid-tier Core Formation Realm cultivators. Three of them were wood-elemental-attribute while the other two were fire-elemental-attribute.
Hao Ren fought against the five on his own. The sword energies that he shot out were targeting their elemental attributes.
Hao Ren could counter them effectively.
Buzz… The tips of the swords clashed and let out an ear-piercing noise. Suddenly, the ten swords were in a deadlocked situation in the middle of the air.
The Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators all watched in shock.
Mo Lianshan was also like an uncle-master to them, but the alliance of five couldn’t even defeat one young Core Formation Realm cultivator.
Bang!
Hao Ren sent out waves of nature essences and forced the five swords back simultaneously!
Hongyuan Master who was floating nearby was also shocked by this sight.
“The Herb King Master’s direct disciple is already this strong,” he thought as he calculated whether he should go against Ethereal Summit.
According to rumors, this direct disciple destroyed Kongtong Sect easily. Hongyuan Master didn’t believe it before, but now that he saw Hao Ren fighting against five disciples of Sky Mountain Sect, he thought that the rumor was real now.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!”
The sword energies randomly flashed!
Mo Lianshan and the other four Core Formation Realm cultivators stood in their respective spots, controlling the swords.
Hao Ren controlled five swords but was equal to them in power; he was able to split his spiritual senses amongst five objects!
Those Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators and even those Core Formation Realm cultivators all watched in shock.
If a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator ran into a situation where Core Formation Realm cultivators surrounded him, he would use his full power to kill the Core Formation Realm cultivators one by one. It was difficult for a low-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivator to fight against five Core Formation Realm cultivators at the same time.
Hao Ren focused on maximizing the power of his Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll, and Little White who was carrying Hao Ren was quite busy!
It had to face five snow lions together!
Those level 3 and 4 snow lions were able to spit out fireballs. Hao Ren had no problem facing five cultivators at the time, but Little White was quite tired facing five!
It had to shift its body continuously to dodge the fireballs, and the fireballs that were close had to be put out by its claws.
Those Sky Mountain Sect cultivators were once again shocked.
A level 3 snow lion could face five snow lions which were on the same level or higher level than it!
This cultivator was indeed very incredible, and even his spirit beast was very unbelievable!
In reality, Little White had golden fur covering its legs, and it also had a set of dharma treasures in its claws that could help it fly faster and defense it during emergencies.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
A series of loud, crisp noises sounded in Hao Ren’s body.
He had already unlocked 186 openings through cultivation but unlocked three more right now.
“Attack!” Mo Lianshan opened his eyes wide and shouted.
The five cultivators’ attacks intensified; they had completely given up on defending and were now focused on attacking Hao Ren!
The five snow lions had stopped attacking Little White and were all shooting fireballs at Hao Ren!
The cultivators and their mounts split, changing their formation into five humans and five beasts and attacking Hao Ren from ten directions!
Hua! Hao Ren’s sword energies all split.
One turned into two!
The 320 sword energies turned into 640 sword energies!
Inside Hao Ren’s dragon core, two more openings were unlocked! If the openings were forcefully unlocked before, then this time, Hao Ren had patiently cultivated and created small holes; he just had to wait for the right timing to unlock them in full!
With each new opening, his nature essence accumulation would increase by a bit!
The surrounding nature essence all rushed toward Hao Ren. When Hongyuan Master saw this, the look on his face changed.
“The nature essences are suddenly gathering around him… It couldn’t be… that this kid is charging at the Nascent Soul Realm?” he thought.
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
There were four more new openings.
He had reached 195 openings!
Top-tier Gen-level!
From Zhen-level to Gen-level and from Gen-level to Dui-level, one’s body would change drastically. However, if it were just increases of tier within a level, then there would be no tribulation.
Within 50 kilometers of Ethereal Summit, clouds gathered, and the wind blew heavily.
Hongyuan Master watched his surroundings closely so that he could leave at any time. From the look of the situation, the Herb King Master might be coming back!
“Break!”
The 640 sword energies doubled to 1280 sword energies all of a sudden!
Thousands of sword energies appeared; this wasn’t a number that those Foundation Establishment or Core Formation Realm cultivators had imagined before!
What was the feeling of seeing thousands of dense sword energies suddenly appearing in the sky?
If they were to fall, not a single Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator would be able to escape!
Hongyuan Master who was about to stop Hao Ren didn’t say a word. He felt that each of those sword energies had the power of a low-tier Core Formation Realm cultivator!
Even though he was a low-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, he was no match for 1000 Core Formation Realm cultivators!
Bang! Mo Lianshan and the other four cultivators were closely surrounding Hao Ren, and they had no time to react. Therefore, they were all knocked back, creating big holes in the cliffs!
The 1280 sword energies then suddenly merged and became 640 sword energies. Then, they merged again and became 320 sword energies.
With Hao Ren’s strength at Gen-level, he could only maintain 640 sword energies for only a few seconds. He was only able to let out those 1280 sword energies since he had reached a breakthrough, and his nature essence accumulation peaked. Therefore, he was able to get a taste of what mid-tier Dui-level felt like.
Hongyuan Master’s legs softened due to fright. He had been through a lot to get to the Nascent Soul Realm and didn’t want to die here.
If those thousands of sword energies had been aimed at him, he would be cut into pieces!
“He had just reached a breakthrough and is currently weak. Hurry up and capture him!”
High up in the sky, the voice of the Grand Uncle-Master of Sky Mountain Sect sounded once again.
Through his voice, one could hear anger. His voice instantly woke up the 73 Core Formation Realm cultivators.
The remaining 73 Core Formation Realm cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect threw all types of shining dharma treasures at Hao Ren.
They wanted to capture Hao Ren, but no one dared to get near him! After all, they witnessed what happened to their peers who got near Hao Ren!
Even the First Elder’s most beloved disciple, Mo Lianshan, was knocked into the cliff, and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive! Mo Lianshan was the disciple who had the most potential to charge at the Nascent Soul Realm in the next few years!
Hao Ren shot out the 320 sword energies, knocking away all those dharma treasures.
Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi were in the valley looking up in the sky to watch Hao Ren. They were at first worried but now excited!
Duan Yao had quietly sneaked to the cave entrance to escape. She saw through the energy sphere of the valley and witnessed Hao Ren fighting with tens of cultivators at a time. She was so shocked that her mouth opened wide.
The three small sects around Ethereal Summit which were within the outer energy sphere were even more shocked.
They looked up and saw that Hao Ren fought against tens of Core Formation Realm cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect. They were all deeply amazed.
Especially Wu Yan of Qin Yin Sect who had recently reached the Core Formation Realm. Her eyes were shaking, and she realized that she knew nothing about this world!
With this kind of strength, he could even wipe out the entire Fifth Heaven!
The Herb King Master’s direct disciple was so powerful. What realm was that jolly Herb King Master who came visit them at Qin Yin Sect last time!
“No wonder we couldn’t sense a single bit of nature essence! It was because she had reached such a level that she merged into one with nature!” she thought.
“Hongyuan Master, if you can help me capture him, I’ll give you a rejuvenation pill!”
The loud, thunderous voice sounded again.
Hongyuan Master heard it and was moved.
A rejuvenation pill was a level 4 elixir pill. It had the power of prolonging life for at least 100 years. A Nascent Soul Realm cultivator would be able to live for close to 1000 years; that was why to Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, they were basically immortals.
However, Hongyuan Master had remained at low-tier Nascent Soul Realm for 200 years. Adding on the cultivation years he had in the past, he only had 200 to 300 years left…
“Kiddo, you got unlucky!”
Hongyuan Master thought for only a second, and a golden bell suddenly appeared in his hand.
As long as he would kill Hao Ren, he would also wipe out all the cultivators in the valley and the three small sects.
He had to kill everyone because he had to destroy evidence. Even if the Herb King Master came back, it might not be able to be traced back to him!
A rejuvenation pill that could increase his lifespan by 100 years was worth it for him to fight for!
