Lord Xue Ying

Flying Snow City was a vast city. It had many mountains and valleys. For instance, Old Mother Ying Shan occupied a range of mountains, even constructing a cavern-dwelling there.

In one of the valleys, Xue Ying, Insect Ancestor Ba Tuo Chen, and Swordmaster were currently sparring.

“Peng peng peng.”

Insect Ancestor Ba Tuo Chen’s figure was constantly moving and transforming. Under the flutter of his wings, his speed was incredibly fast.

And Xue Ying wielded the Azure River Spear in his hand. Even though he did not augment himself with the arrays of Flying Snow City, he was able to force Insect Ancestor Ba Tuo Chen into a difficult situation. Many parts of this valley had already turned into fine powder. Naturally, there were arrays isolating this place from the outside, allowing the three of them to fight without worrying that it might affect others.

“Stop stop stop!” Insect Ancestor Ba Tuo Chen hurrieldy shouted, “It is indeed a Chaotic Origin Weapon. It is truly amazing. It seems that the news Undying Underworld Emperor let out is somewhat authentic!”

“Authentic? What nonsense!”

Xue Ying stopped. He had a relatively good temper, yet he still could not help but scold, “He told everyone that no matter what Dao one cultivates, he would become much stronger when he gets his hands on the Chaotic Origin Weapon! What nonsense is that! This Chaotic Origin Weapon is personally refined by me. That is why I could use it. Other than me, no Cosmos Gods could do so! Furthermore, this is a weapon compatible only for the supreme secret impartation that I have. Cultivators of other Daos could not use it even if they refined the weapon!”

“Haha, Big Brother Flying Snow, who asked you to amaze the entire Realm Heart Great Land and become great enemies with Undying Underworld Emperor! It is normal for him to scheme against you.” Insect Ancestor Ba Tuo Chen laughed.

“There is no need to worry about that. Undying Underworld Emperor can’t deal against Xue Ying in the Flying Snow City, much less other unparalleled existences.” Swordmaster added.

Even Emperor Summer was weaker by a level.

Xue Ying shook his head: “It has given me a lot more trouble.”

Greed.

Why did so many unparalleled existences like Devouring Realm Great Emperor fall? And some even died when venturing into the Broken Teeth Mountain Range! Or those who suffered from an ambush from multiple unparalleled existences in Realm Heart Great Land. In the end, it was all because of ‘greed’. Phrasing it nicely, it was done so that everyone could walk further in the path of cultivation.

“Xue Ying, we should have a spar too.” Swordmaster smiled.

“Good.”

Xue Ying’s eyes brightened, “You should be careful!”

Saying that, the Azure River Spear in his hand has struck out!

This spear drew in the void, causing the entire void to become dark. Within the darkness, endless Chaotic Origin Energy surged in like waves of maelstrom along the Azure River Spear before piercing out against Swordmaster.

There was no need for the spearhead to touch the enemy. The force of this jab alone caused easily transmitted through the void to where Swordmaster stood.

“Weng.” Rays of sword began charging into the sky from the surface of Swordmaster as defense. It withstood against the incoming force. Even though this protective technique which he grasped from the supreme secret impartation was formidable, he still felt part of the bizarre penetrative force reaching into his body. Nonetheless, his body was just like the condensation of a multitude of sword lights that broke down the incoming force. In the end, he was still forced to take a step back.

“The Dao of Void is interesting.” Swordmaster laughed, “You should receive a sword of mine too.”

“Hua.”

With a flash of the sword, a blood light reached Xue Ying.

It came silently and soundlessly, making Xue Ying feel apprehensive. He immediately spun his spear, causing spatial layers to form as defenses against this blood light. Nonetheless, the blood light was strange. It easily penetrated through the layers of space–those spatial layers remained perfectly untouched. In the end, the force of the blood light was weakened by about 30% to 40% before piercing into the body of Xue Ying.

After going through more force dissipation with techniques like void-ification, a wound still appeared on the chest of Xue Ying. One could see his wound healing rapidly with the naked eyes.

“Your fleshy body is quite amazing.” Swordmaster could not help but praise.

“Your sword is hard to deal with.” Xue Ying flicked the spear in his hand before causing the world to turn chaotic…

…

Both parties continued battling.

One side utilized the Dao of Destruction. Every action of his made use of the profound mysteries from the supreme secret impartation. On the other end, Xue Ying relied on the Chaotic Origin Weapon, executing techniques underlying the Dao of Void on comparable level.

But it was clear that Xue Ying was still on the disadvantaged end!

“Xue Ying, don’t you have many avatars? Use all your known techniques!” Swordmaster urged.

“Hahaha, you are the one asking for it!”

Xue Ying laughed.

Beside him, a huge Void Void Fire Lotus Flower appeared. On top of the dazzling Void Fire Lotus Flower stood nine Xue Yings. They all began executing techniques.

If one mentioned that Xue Ying with his Azure River Spear was about 30% the strength of Eternal Night Primogenitor.

Then when nine great avatars worked together with the Void Fire Lotus Flower, they were also comparable to approximately 30% of Eternal Night Primogenitor’s strength! Because all nine avatars had about 70% of the peak soul strength. This was also due to the absorption of ‘Myriad Tentacles Dragon Mother’s core blood, allowing 70% of soul strength each avatar had to be comparable to that of ordinary final realm cultivators. Hence, it was sufficient for each avatar to execute powerful techniques.

With nine final realm avatars working hand in hand coupled with the buff from the World Energy of Void Fire Lotus Flower! More importantly, there was an inherent ‘final realm Dao of Void’ within the Void Fire Lotus Flower. By relying on this Dao to set up a combined attack, the nine great avatars were able to coordinate extremely well together. That was why Xue Ying could be a few times stronger than without the Void Fire Lotus Flower.

And now, using the Chaotic Origin Weapon was slightly awkward for him.

Because he only had a single Chaotic Origin Weapon, ‘Azure River Spear’! That avatar could easily wield strength far surpassing that of other avatars (the other nine avatars had to work together with the Void Fire Lotus Flower before they could be comparable). The gap was too big, so there was not any purpose in using combined attacks.

But it was different within the ‘Flying Snow City’.

There were many arrays constructed within the Flying Snow City. Every part was considered one section. For instance, even the monarch residence contained arrays, and Xue Ying always brought along the core and most crucial part with him.

With a thought, he could easily activate many arrays before executing his ultra-strong killing techniques.

These arrays were crafted according to the <Chaotic Origin Seven Strikes>. They were optimal for drawing in Chaotic Origin Energy! And they were compatible with the Chaotic Origin Weapon!

But the World Energy from the ‘Void Fire Lotus Flower’ had a much weaker efficiency when used with the Azure River Spear.

“Hong hong hong~”

The nine great avatars began executing the combined technique with the Void Fire Lotus Flower!

And the other avatar relied on the Azure River Spear. When they worked together, they were still forced into a dire situation by Swordmaster since Swordmaster alone could exert approximately 80% the strength of Eternal Night Primogenitor.

“It is still more suitable to use the domain technique with my Azure River Spear.” Xue Ying altered his technique after experimenting multiple times.

“Weng~”

The nine great avatars began executing the strongest domain technique together.

Furthermore, since the Void Fire Lotus Flower was itself a world-aspect treasure, it was good at supplementing domains.

“Hong long long~” A powerful domain came like an undercurrent. That domain easily sandwiched Swordmaster within. For a moment, Swordmaster suffered from the domain suppression constantly. Furthermore, due to the constant changes in the power of the domain, Swordmaster suffered from a great decline in his executable strength.

Along with it, Xue Ying could finally fight against Swordmaster with the Azure River Spear.

Even though he did not get the upper hand, it was clear that Xue Ying had a much easier time.

“Hahaha…” Xue Ying finally laughed.

“This domain of yours truly gives others a headache.” Swordmaster felt tremendously uneasy. Even though he grasped a supreme secret impartation and had a domain too, it was far weaker than what could be executed by the nine great avatars working together coupled with the world-aspect treasure ‘Void Fire Lotus Flower’.

Both parties stopped. They landed onto the ground.

“You should be able to have an easy time fighting with Eternal Night Primogenitor even in the outer world.” Swordmaster laughed.

“It’s a pity that Undying Underworld Emperor would definitely kill his way over the moment I create a huge disturbance outside.” Xue Ying shook his head, “Even though my domain is formidable, it is still inadequate before unparalleled existences that specialize in domains. For instance, ‘Undying Underworld Emperor’ could easily suppress my domain with his ‘Death World’. Hence, my domain can’t help me at all. Even if I fought with him with my Chaotic Origin Weapon, if I were slow, I would be killed by him. It is fine if an avatar is killed. But if my Chaotic Origin Weapon is taken, that is something I can’t accept.”

Swordmaster nodded.

It was admittedly pleasurable to suppress the enemy with one’s domain.

But if the domain of the enemy was stronger than one’s domain would easily be suppressed by the other party’s!

“Are you not planning to bring along your Chaotic Origin Weapon with you when you go out?” Swordmaster asked.

“No.”

Xue Ying shook his head, “I’ll wait until the day I reached the final realm. That would be the day my Chaotic Origin Weapon leaves the Flying Snow City with me!”

“Right. That Undying Underworld Emperor loves inciting trouble. Ever since he spread news about Big Brother Flying Snow, I believe that there are many cultivators filled with greed for Big Brother Flying Snow’s weapon! They dare not seek death in the Flying Snow City, but once Big Brother Flying Snow leaves the city… it’ll be trouble.” Insect Ancestor Ba Tuo Chen agreed.

“Mn mn, Xue Ying, you have accumulated sufficient experience in your cultivation. All you need is a catalyst for you to have another breakthrough to the final realm.” Swordmaster added.

“Another breakthrough? I know all I need is another breakthrough but that final step is incredibly difficult.” Xue Ying shook his head.

“Honored Guest Flying Snow.”

A set of voice suddenly sounded in the surrounding.

Xue Ying, Swordmaster, and Insect Ancestor Ba Tuo Chen all turned over. They saw figures condensing from the surrounding World Energy into Emperor Summer, Ancestor Fan, and Emperor Cang. But as they were formed by World Energy, they had merely sent their incarnations! It was clear Emperor Summer and the others held no malicious intent for coming over.

Otherwise, Xue Ying might become vigilant!

“Emperor Summer, Ancestor Fan, Emperor Cang.” Xue Ying greeted with a smile, “It is the honor of my Flying Snow City to have you three gentlemen visiting my place.”

“Haha… who doesn’t know of the huge name of Great Paragon Flying Snow currently? Even Underworld Emperor has to retreat before Flying Snow City.” Emperor Summer laughed.

Xue Ying welcomed them with a smile.

But in his heart, he faintly understood that the other party should most likely be here for something related to the Chaotic Origin Weapon.
