Chapter 608 - 389: Bottleneck Gold Seal, Taking the Initiative!
Chapter 608: Chapter 389: Bottleneck Gold Seal, Taking the Initiative!
But Gu Yuan did not pay attention to her latter words; he just raised his head and earnestly asked, "If I kill the Seal Master, what of the oath once made?"
Upon hearing this, Qinn Yun was momentarily stunned before smiling and saying, "You’re jesting, Fellow Daoist. Such a small kindness hardly warrants killing..."
"Swoosh!"
But before she could finish her sentence, an unimaginably swift sword light broke through the void and suddenly slashed towards her brow.
Forty years of arduous cultivation had made Gu Yuan’s cultivation significantly advance, elevating various True Scripture Seals to yet another level.
Especially after mastering the "Celestial Rainbow Scripture" and "Celestial Traveling Seal," his Escape Light became unspeakably swift, increasing his speed; the seal driving his Sword Pill transformed his body into rainbow light, elevating his sword technique to an incredible power.
This was the method of Human Sword Unity, also an Ultimate Killing Technique.
When facing this woman, Gu Yuan did not hesitate in the slightest and directly used such an Ultimate Killing Technique.
Qinn Yun’s face suddenly changed.
She never expected Gu Yuan to be so decisive, for just a mere half-month extension of her lifespan, he drew his sword against her. Most crucially, this sword genuinely harbored endless killing intent, employing a Supreme Swordsmanship capable of causing her demise.
"Clang!"
The Seven Profound Tower Shadow hanging over Gu Yuan’s head trembled slightly, as an unbounded verdant space suddenly appeared, enveloping both him and Qinn Yun.
The Seven Profound Tower Realm, a method by the Demon Palace to prevent fighting multiple opponents.
Once this realm appeared, only the two remained within; only one could win or acknowledge defeat before the realm would dissipate.
What’s more, as the realm unfolded, the nearby Divine Dream Fruit was also seized by a mighty force, suddenly falling into the realm, becoming the "prize" for their magical combat.
The profundity of the Seven Profound Tower Realm far outstripped the Golden Core Realm’s imagination; as Gu Yuan struck out with a sword, the realm instantly unfolded without hindering his sword technique in the slightest.
The sword light was as a rainbow, instantaneously slashing towards Qinn Yun’s brow.
"Clang!"
Atop Qinn Yun’s head, a Dharma Seal, resembling a "bright mirror," immediately unfolded, shooting forth an incomparably chilling divine light.
The void froze, and everything turned cold.
The Secret Seal of Guanghan Palace, the Guanghan Divine Mirror Seal.
This seal could condense the ultimate Power of the Great Yin, transforming into a Guanghan Mirror; anything illuminated by this mirror would be enveloped in endless frost, unable to move.
It was a Dharma Seal equipped for both offense and defense.
"Bang!"
However, the divine light emitted by the mirror exploded just at a glance.
The sword light was rapid to the extreme, like a beam of light, shattering everything.
Qinn Yun’s expression drastically changed; the sword attack was sudden and at its pinnacle of speed, she was already unable to dodge. All she could do was stimulate her Mana, patting her waist.
"Swoosh!"
A plain-colored handkerchief instantly emerged, expanding against the wind, blocking out the sun, and standing in front of her.
This handkerchief was soft, containing what seemed like endless space within. The rapid sword light soared towards it, but the handkerchief extended under the strain, like a meteor stretching the sky’s vault, forming a huge "protrusion."
"Creak!"
Yet the sword light was unimaginably fierce, containing seemingly endless Mana within, like a meteor that would never burn out; in the blink of an eye, the handkerchief extended to its limit, emitting a groan of unbearable pressure.
"A Tier Four Sword Pill?!"
Qinn Yun’s face drastically changed again.
This handkerchief was a Tier Four Spiritual Treasure bestowed by her master, named the "Heaven-covering Silver Cloth," designed to overcome all with softness. Any Techniques or Artifacts falling into it would be enveloped, unable to break free until the opponent’s Spiritual Light and Mana exhausted.
In truth, it bore some resemblance to the "Golden Alms Bowl" of Gu Yuan’s past life’s Yellow Eyebrow King.
However, the two were worlds apart; the might of Gu Yuan’s sword light, in just an instant, showed signs of the handkerchief unable to bear the strain.
As her mind rapidly turned, Qinn Yun immediately spoke, "I lack a Mind Nourishing Pill to repay this kindness!"
As soon as she said this, the Engraving of Repayment immediately flowed from her head, a strange Spiritual Light flickering, shooting towards Gu Yuan.
With the emergence of this seal, the sword light came to a halt, and within the golden rainbow, Gu Yuan’s form appeared.
Seeing this, Qinn Yun immediately put away the silver handkerchief, breathing a sigh of relief upon seeing it undamaged.
"Take it!"
Gu Yuan casually threw out a Tier Three Nourishing Spirit Pill, handing it to Qinn Yun.
Qinn Yun hurriedly took it, and then the Engraving of Repayment shuddered, a Spiritual Light shot out of nowhere, returning to Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan felt no changes within, yet inexplicably felt a sense of relief, as if some shackle was lifted.
"Fellow Daoist is indeed ruthless and indifferent, resorting to killing at the slightest disagreement, how domineering..."
Qinn Yun bit her lip lightly, looking at Gu Yuan with a hint of grievance in her eyes.
She wasn’t without other means, but Gu Yuan’s sudden sword strike reached the pinnacle of speed, overflowing with killing intent. Should she truly confront it, it would likely end in endless enmity.
After much deliberation, she let it go.
"I am not a bloodthirsty person, but I am never lenient with those harboring ill intentions."
Gu Yuan’s expression remained unchanged, he merely uttered a single sentence indifferently.
He did not truly wish to kill the woman at this moment; doing so would be more detrimental than beneficial.
This stance was merely to force the other party into submission.
However, if the other party truly refused to compromise, then he would genuinely doubt her intentions, leaving no choice but to fight.
The sword strike had already been retracted by Gu Yuan, but the Tower Realm of the Seven Profound Tower had not dissipated, still emanating a layer of misty azure light, shrouding both Gu Yuan and Qinn Yun.
Above the Tower Realm, the Divine Dream Fruit shimmered with a fantastical seven-colored hue.
The sudden pause in the battle between the two did not genuinely determine victory or defeat; only upon one acknowledging defeat would the Tower Realm be lifted.
