First Immortal of the Sword

Chapter 1780 - The Great Profound Stage

The woman in the black dress really was strong.

She forced her way through the turbulent spacetcurrents, cleaving a path to life through the natural order!

But she paid a grievous price.

Her supreme, life-saving treasures had been shattered, and most of her body lay in ruin. Her injuries were severe.

Moreover, the moment she descended from the heavens, countless streaks of sword qi whooshed toward her.

Every strike was forceful and tyrannical, and they struck at an opportune moment. The woman in the black dress didn’t even get the chance to catch her breath.

Naturally, this was Su Yi’s work.

Kaboom!

Firelight ran rampant, and divine radiance rose into the air.

The woman’s battered frerupted with appalling black flames, and her right arm, the one holding her sheathed sword, swung through the air!

Su Yi’s countless streaks of sword qi ripped apart and broke.

Su Yi’s pupils constricted. This woman is an expert of the Great Unity Stage!

Within the spacetportal, the purple-robed man said calmly, “Bai Liu, don’t be polite. Kill him.”

“Understood!” The woman in the black dress nodded.

The woman’s battered body was quietly knitting back together, but her face was still pale and translucent.

There was no doubt about it. Her injuries were so severe that there was no way of recovering quickly.

“Do all of the Immortal Realm’s ants overestimate themselves in this way?” The woman’s eyes flashed like cold lightning as she locked onto Su Yi.

She drew her blade, walked through the air, and charged at Su Yi.

Boom!

Heaven and earth shook as a tidal wave of murderous intent swept outward. The unrivaled power of the Great Unity Stage bore down on the surrounding skies, making them collapse.

Someone watching from a distance could never have imagined that this was someone who’d only just been injured!

That’s just how terrifying the Great Unity Stage was.

The Great Unity Stage was beyond the Great Martial Stage. Experts of this level started to condense their power of the Laws into a Great Realm Fire Source.

The Fire Source never went out. It was like an eternal flame, as lasting as the Grand Dao itself!

“So strong! I’m sure that’s one of the divine son’s attendants. She must be an extraordinary existence!”

The surviving Immortal Kings of Floating Mountain were stunned, and their hearts filled with eagerness.

The divine son’s attendant had descended into the Immortal Realm. How could the reincarnation of the Eternal Night Immortal Sovereign possibly escape alive now?

Kcch!

The woman in black attacked without the slightest politeness. Before her voice had even finished echoing through the air, she swung her sword and attacked.

Her sword was four feet long, with an edge as fine as a cicada’s wing. As it swung, inky black dark lightning burst from its edge.

Seemingly cataclysmic lightning burst forth with unimaginable destructive power.

Too terrifying! The impending lethal threat made Su Yi’s skin go taut.

Without the slightest hesitation, he attacked in full force, and the Sword of the Human Realm’s hums resounded throughout the firmament.

His essence, qi, and spirit seemed to catch ablaze, and without the slightest hesitation, he drew upon the power of the Sword of the Nine Hells within his sea of consciousness.

Boom!

Two streaks of sword qi clashed in midair.

The entire stretch of sky split, and explosive destructive power swept out like a windstorm.

Su Yi was forced back, his face alternating white and green. Throughout his body, his vital energy churned.

It still wasn’t enough!

It seemed that it’d be difficult to shake a Great Unity powerhouse even with the aura of the Sword of the Nine Hells!

Ultimately, the gap between their cultivation bases was just too enormous.

“Hah? I wouldn’t have guessed that an ant like you could block one of my attacks,” the woman in black said with surprise.

She really was severely injured, but she was a peak expert of the Great Unity Stage. Otherwise, there was no way that Divine Venerate Qing Di would have chosen her to accompany the divine son.

She would never have guessed that a young man who’d obviously yet even to becan Immortal King could block her attack and live!

This was far too unusual! Even in the boundlessly vast God Domain she’d been born and raised in, such monsters were practically impossible to find.

“An ant?” Su Yi took a moment to steady his qi, then looked up at the woman in the black dress. “If you leave this place alive, I’ll just go ahead and offer you my head.”

The woman in black couldn’t help but grin. However, her smile was extraordinarily cold. “You want to get rid of your head? I’ll help you!”

As she spoke, her enchanting figure flashed through the air and swung her sword.

Boom!

The terrifying power of a Great Unity Realm expert blanketed heaven and earth, sealing Su Yi’s escape routes on all sides.

Moreover, the woman’s next attack was considerably stronger than her last.

Su Yi didn’t retreat. He raised his hand and took out a black talisman.

Boom!

The talisman exploded, and a black sun took to the sky.

The entire Kunwu Hidden Realm shook violently. Countless rifts appeared in midair, as if unable to bear the black sun’s power. Everything seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

A terrifying, taboo power erupted from the black sun.

“Hm? That’s the Exquisite Divine Venerate’s Epoch Law, the Dark Sun!” When the man in purple saw this from beyond the spacetportal, his expression darkened. Don’t tellthat guy is an emissary of the Exquisite Divine Venerate?

Kaboom!

The black sun took to the sky, shattering the woman’s incoming attack.

A terrifying, taboo power slammed into her. With an agonized shriek, her body was torn to shreds, and her soul was badly damaged.

In the end, although she survived, all that remained of her was a badly battered remnant soul.

Even Su Yi couldn’t help but find this surprising. He’d acquired the black talisman from the gray-robed elder when he attacked the Church of the Exquisite Goddess. It was full of the goddess’s power.

Even Su Yi wouldn’t have guessed that this treasure would be so terrifyingly strong.

But then he quickly understood.

He possessed the power of reincarnation, which countered and neutralized the Epoch Laws of the gods. But other people had no such power. The Great Unity Stage woman in the black dress was a vivid example; one strike from the black sun, and she almost lost her life!

Even as Su Yi pondered, his movements never slowed. He shifted on his feet, arrived beside the woman’s remnant soul, and grabbed it!

“Stop!” Within the spacetportal, the purple-robed man bellowed, “Spare her life, and this lofty one shall spare yours!”

Bang!

But Su Yi didn’t even hesitate. He grabbed the woman’s soul and shattered it into powder.

“You...” The man beyond the spacetportal roared in fury, and his eyes shone with terrifying murderous intent.

He’d yet to even enter the Immortal Realm, but the attendant accompanying him was already dead. How could he possibly accept this?

Meanwhile, the two Immortal Kings of the Floating Mountain were dumbstruck.

They would never have guessed that an expert of the Great Unity Realm would perish in the blink of an eye!!

Meanwhile, Su Yi didn’t hesitate to leap into the sky and attack the spacetportal.

He used the black talisman earlier to save time. He wanted to defeat the woman in black quickly, destroy the spacetportal, and ruin the Floating Mountain’s plans!

Boom!

He attacked rapidly, his sword qi sweeping outward like tidal waves slamming into the shoreline.

The spacetportal shook once more.

The purple-robed man’s expression was unsightly, and he struggled to understand why an emissary of the Exquisite Divine Goddess would impede his descent into the Immortal Realm like this.

It seemed... wildly unreasonable!

“Little wretch, do you really think this lofty one is incapable of forcing his way through?” The man in purple suddenly snorted coldly, then poured his strength into the golden jade cauldron and charged through the portal.

Boom!

Golden Laws shot forth, and the spacetportal shook violently.

The man in purple leaped through it in a single bound!

But the turbulent spacetcurrents slammed into him moments later, shaking the tripod cauldron. The man in purple suffered a backlash and coughed up blood.

Before he could even steady himself, the power of the Laws of the Immortal Dao descended, attaking him like mad.

Su Yi could tell at a glance that this backlash was far more serious, and far more terrifying, than the woman’s had been!

So, that guy is a Great Profound Stage expert... Su Yi’s heart shook, but he quickly understood.

All Great Realm experts stood at the pinnacle of the Immortal Dao, but within the Great Realm, experts of the Great Profound Stage were the cream of the crop.

Back then, Wang Ye had been in the Great Profound Stage too!

There was no doubt about it. The higher the cultivation of the people arriving from the God Domain, the greater the backlash from the natural order of the Immortal Dao when they crossed tand space.

Su Yi also finally understood something else, too.

The gods really were sending the divine children to the Immortal Realm so that they could vie for a chance to prove their Daos and becgods when the opportunity arose!

After all, without Great Profound Stage cultivation, how could one possibly attempt to achieve divinity?

The purple-robed man’s long hair fluttered around him as he threw back his head and roared, “Open!”

His momentum was extraordinarily terrifying, but the most unbelievable part was his golden jade tripod cauldron. It was obviously an extraordinary, suprtreasure. It actually blocked the turbulent onslaught of the power of tand space!

But the man in purple was injured nevertheless!

The power of the natural order of the Immortal Dao covered the sky, as if the Immortal Realm itself was trying to heartlessly punish its uninvited guest.

Even with the golden jade tripod cauldron to defend him, the man in purple was badly injured. The impact left him covered in blood. Just looking at him was startling.

Su Yi didn’t attack. His gaze was completely fixated on the golden jade tripod cauldron. He had a strange look on his face.

Within his sea of consciousness, the Sword of the Nine Hells seemed to have sensed the golden tripod cauldron’s aura, and it was starting to get agitated!

The fifth of the divine chains wrapped around the sword had even started clattering. It showed signs of awakening from its deep dormancy!!

This development caught Su Yi off guard. Could it be that my fifth incarnation, Li Fuyou, has a grudge against the owner of that golden tripod?

Meanwhile, beneath the distant dof heaven.

The man in purple let out a muffled grunt as he suppressed his cultivation base. His strength instantly fell from the Great Profound Stage all the way to the Great Martial Stage. Only then did he just barely manage to stabilize it.

The power of the natural order of the Immortal Dao seemed to sense that the man in purple no longer presented a threat. It quickly receded and vanished back into the void.

The man in purple let out a long sigh in obvious relief.

But when he sensed the severity of his injuries, his face was instantly ashen.

The power of the natural order of the Immortal Dao was like a punishment from nature itself. It didn’t just damage his physical body. It even ate away at his foundations in the Grand Dao!

No! Something wasn’t right!

This wasn’t just the power of the natural order. It contained a strange tribulation of the Divine Dao!

The purple-robed man’s heart shook as he recalled that long ago, the gods joined forces to hide misfortune targeting Great Realm cultivators within the Immortal Realm’s Laws.

This was what the cultivators of the Floating Mountain called “divine misfortune!”

There was no doubt about it. When he faced a backlash from the natural order of the Immortal Dao, he also met with divine misfortune because of his Great Profound Stage cultivation!

“Fuck, what is going on? I barely get here and with a bad start to boot, and now the power of the gods is screwingover!”

The man in purple was so dejected that he almost launched into a series of expletives.
