Refining the Mountains and Rivers

The uneasiness in his heart was gone now but Qin Yu did not feel relaxed. His intuition told him that something happened during that split second just now.

Sighing deeply, Qin Yu said in a deep tone, “We have to quicken our pace. After I break through to the King realm, we have to leave the Bounded Void Space immediately!”

White Feifei nodded, “Alright.”

She was rather nervous.

White Feifei was with Qin Yu now and it was hard to separate their fates. If something bad happened to Qin Yu, she would be implicated too.

Shoosh –

Qin Yu continued deeper into the Bounded Void Space. As said earlier, the further he was from the Central Desolate, the lower the pressure from Great Qin. The identity as the heaven and earth spirit of fate was activated once again.

All of a sudden, White Feifei lifted her head and she looked in the darkness. There was a bright smile on her face.

“My Lord, your luck is finally back!”

She lifted a finger and pointed, “There are people battling ahead. It is two True Kings.”

Qin Yu grinned, “Alright!”

In the vast Bounded Void Space, meeting one True King was hard, not to mention two True Kings in the Sea of Confusion.

After killing three True Kings and stealing their Great Dao, he would be able to break through.

Luo Guan was the first.

If he killed the two others, he would accomplish his goal.

“Let’s go!”

Qin Yu made a low roar and headed in the direction that White Feifei pointed.

Boom –

A deafening explosion erupted from the darkness and a violent force swept out in all directions. Two lightning fast figures were battling each other fiercely.

They were silent and they did not speak during the entire process. However, deep in their eyes was a sinister flash.

They unleashed their maximum power and disregarded the harm they did to themselves. The only thing they desired was to inflict harm on their opponents.

This was a battle that decided life and death.

All of a sudden, one of the True Kings roared. This was the first time he spoke. The aura around him surged and his skinny body suddenly started to fatten up. He turned into a handsome young man.

He lifted a finger!

When he pressed his finger down, energy shot through the darkness instantly and struck the other True King’s chest. The hollow sounds of bones breaking and crumbling apart came and there was now a massive hole in that person’s chest.

The True King who had been heavily injured was wide-eyed and he spurted out blood.

Ptui –

Dark black blood shot forward from his sword. It targeted the other True King and forced him backward. Blood dripped from him and his physical body started to rot, revealing his bones.

In an instant, one died and the other was injured.

The surviving True King’s hands were purely bones and the flesh on his face was rotted. There were gross holes in his face and he looked extremely pathetic.

However, his pain could not be seen through his eyes and there was only excitement there.

Shoosh –

The surviving True King wanted to turn and leave.

Boom –

A terrifying boom of sword force exploded into a massive sword shadow that slashed down menacingly with his sword! The man was aghast and he stomped down, trying to retreat as best as he could.

Bam –

There was a hollow sound as he was forced back.

In the next moment, a sword peak pierced through his forehead directly, killing him.

Qin Yu stored his sword and sat down cross-legged. The Sunmoon Vortex appeared again and it devoured the corpses of the two True Kings.

Steal their Great Dao to become a True King!

White Feifei grinned from ear to ear but her expression slowly turned serious and she scanned her surroundings. Breaking through to the True King realm meant that Qin Yu would have to refine his Great Dao completely to align with the heavens and earth.

But it was not so easy to break through.

Not to mention how hard it was to break through, when he broke through, he would have to pass a test. Most often, there would be accidents during this test.

Furthermore, Qin Yu’s method of breaking through was a forceful and violent way of killing other True Kings to assist himself.

Such a method was no different from a devil!

Under normal circumstances, if the heavens and earth detected this, heavenly punishment would descend.

Luckily Qin Yu was in the Bounded Void Space, which was not considered a world. Therefore the possibility of a heavenly punishment striking was very small.

Yet, White Feifei did not know if other problems would arise from breaking through in the Bounded Void Space…sometimes, the unknown was most fearful!

Kaboom!

A low rumble erupted in the Bounded Void Space. White Feifei looked at Qin Yu with a heavy expression. He was beginning his breakthrough to the True King realm!

The roaring darkness shook uncontrollably and it seemed like there were countless pairs of eyes hiding and observing him.

They were staring at Qin Yu and White Feifei. This made her feel uneasy and her body stiffened.

She had never heard of any cultivator who broke through to become a True King in the Bounded Void Space. Therefore, White Feifei was not prepared for any of this.

It was truly terrifying!

Those eyes that were spying on her in the darkness were like icy cold tongues that were silently tasting the air. It made her shudder.

Was it because it was the Bounded Void Space? Or was there another secret on Qin Yu? White Feifei could not figure this out.

Nonetheless, there was trouble…and it was big!

Qin Yu’s only choice was to break through in the Bounded Void Space. When he returned to the Desolate Area, Emperor Qin would descend immediately.

Therefore, they could only bite the bullet and continue.

White Feifei sighed deeply. Her skin grew brighter and purer, hiding her ice cold expression. She was already prepared for a great battle.

However, the beings spying on them in the darkness did not take action.

A few moments later, the hostile eyes in the darkness that were fidgeting around had disappeared.

Phew –

White Feifei sighed out loud while she wore a strange expression. Was that it? The thunder was loud but the rain was loud…hm, it did not rain at all. Had she been mistaken?

No, no way!

Were those hostile beings in the darkness playing with them?

Deep in the darkness, a woman stood in a calm manner. She stared deep into the darkness.

“All of you can’t touch him.

“Whoever dares to will die!”

Darkness rolled silently but anger could be felt drifting from it.

The woman calmly said, “I don’t speak logically but I tell the truth. Whoever feels like you are stronger than me can attack him now.

“Otherwise…”

She pointed forward, “Get lost now!”

The woman snapped.

Darkness quietened down and slowly, peace returned. In the end, they did not dare to offend the woman and they could only retreat helplessly.

The woman turned and looked in the direction of Qin Yu.

If Qin Yu was here, he would recognize at first glance that she was Soft Peach. After she broke through her seal, she was ‘missing’.

She had been in the Bounded Void Space!

Right now, she was helping Qin Yu through a great calamity.

There was a complicated expression in her eyes but she dismissed it eventually with a light sight. Then, she turned and headed into the depths of the Bounded Void Space.

She had her own mission and she could not seek out Qin Yu now.

This time, she observed him from afar and felt his presence. This would probably be the last interaction between the two of them.

Soft Peach gradually distanced herself and she disappeared into the depths of the Bounded Void Space.

The Sunmoon Vortex faded away and Qin Yu opened his eyes. Streaks of dao quintessence drifted from his body.

Boom –

A massive projection of his Great Dao appeared!

It stretched out like a divine dragon flying to the heavens, its waves of energy intermingling endlessly.

A powerful aura spread out from his body!

Buzz –

The Mountains and Rivers Sword appeared and circled around Qin Yu. There was an excited hum from it and it whizzed around him enthusiastically.

Qin Yu reached forward and grabbed it.

Shoosh –

The Mountains and Rivers Sword landed in his hand.

White Feifei unconsciously took a step backwards, wearing a look of awe.

“King realm swordsman!”

Swordsmen could fight above their realms. After breaking through to the King realm, he was powerful. At this moment, White Feifei felt threatened by Qin Yu as he held the long sword in his hands.

A True King who could make a Longevity Species feel threatened…Qin Yu, this True King, was different!

“Congraluations for breaking through My Lord!”

White Feifei bowed and her tone was respectfully.

Qin Yu nodded. He turned and gazed in a direction. For some reason, he felt a familiar aura just now.

However, it was gone.

After some thought, he said, “Did anything happen just now while I was breaking through?”

White Feifei answered, “Yes.”

She explained everything that happened in great detail.

Qin Yu frowned, “Are you sure that there were others spying on us?”

White Feifei laughed bitterly, “I did not sense any particular aura and I did not see them physically, but I would not mistake that feeling.”

A Longevity Species’ words could be trusted.

Qin Yu’s expression immediately hardened. Since the other parties were that close, why did they back away without any reason?

He thought about that strange, familiar aura he felt just now.

There must be another reason for this.

Could they be related?

White Feifei asked, “My Lord, did you sense something?”

Qin Yu thought for a while and then shook his head, “No.”

He sighed deeply and then looked deeper into the Bounded Void Space.

This was the direction that the two True Kings wanted to go in before they were killed by Qin Yu.

Could there be something there?

White Feifei said, “My Lord, you have already broken through. We should leave now. This area is too deep in the Bounded Void Space. The Sea of Confusion is incredibly dangerous even though it looks calm now. If something goes wrong, we will be lost here.”

Qin Yu fell silent for a while before he said, “After breaking through to the King realm, my connection to the divine nation became stronger. There should not be anything wrong with heading deeper.”

White Feifei smiled wryly but could only say, “Alright, My Lord, please be careful!’

Qin Yu acknowledged her and then stepped forward.

The threat that the Sea of Confusion posed was truly as terrifying as White Feifei claimed.

Without question, this was the deepest area in the Bounded Void Space.

Qin Yu could hear the sound of water. His perception of the physical world grew blurrier while his connection with the divine nation grew weaker.

White Feifei withheld it in for a long time. Finally, she gritted her teeth, “My Lord, let’s stop. We should leave here.”

Qin Yu’s feet shuffled to a step. He raised his head, “We are here!”

White Feifei followed his line of sight and her expression took a drastic change.

In the pitch black, ice cold Bounded Void Space, a colossal object was floating in mid-air. Its physical body size was comparable to a city of the human race.

Life force continuously poured from the colossal body’s skin where many wounds ran across its surface. Something had pierced through its body and its white bones could be seen.

This was a beast of unknown origins and someone had killed it in the Bounded Void Space. As time passed by, the corpse had not decomposed.

Furthermore, most terrifyingly, there was still a gloomy aura around the corpse. It was like a massive mountain that people could not help but feel respect for.

“Longevity Species!”

White Feifei muttered under her breath. She looked at the beast in a daze.

Longevity Species could not be killed. This was something that the heavens and earth had gifted them. She was the best example of this. Despite facing heavenly punishment, her physical body was only split apart and suppressed and she still survived till this day.

However, the massive beast was dead!

Its physical body was present but its soul was gone. It meant that it had been killed a long time ago.

This was truly death.

How could this be?

White Feifei was at a loss as she stared at Qin Yu.

Qin Yu’s next words made her heart shudder.

“The person who killed it is Emperor Qin!”

White Feifei did not believe it when the Vast Brightness World’s will said that Emperor Qin had killed a Longevity Species before. She was a Longevity Species and she knew that it was not possible!

However, Qin Yu had found the massive beast’s corpse. His words were very believable now.

“How…how can this be…”

White Feifei was in disbelief.

Qin Yu said, “Let’s head over.”

He stepped forward and teleported to the massive beast’s corpse. From afar, he could already feel a huge pressure.

And now that he was nearer, he could feel the true terror a Longevity Species imposed.

Thankfully, Qin Yu was already a True King and he was an unrivalled King realm swordsman. Otherwise, it would be hard for him to even catch his breath in front of the corpse.

White Feifei’s expression hardened although she appeared calm. She was faster than Qin Yu and she had already flown around the corpse, trying to investigate its cause of death.

Like Qin Yu said, it had been killed by a person.

Its murderer was really…Emperor Qin!

The mass of scars on its skin carried aura from Emperor Qin. White Feifei could not deny this.

Qin Yu stood before the massive beast and looked at the injury that had shot through its head.

This was the death blow!

He suddenly thought of the scene where this beast died. In the endless darkness, the beast roared angrily towards the sky.

Opposite him was Emperor Qin who stood with a cold but handsome face. The imperial aura around him spread through the world!

All of a sudden, Emperor Qin clenched his hands and a brilliant gold light exploded. It shot forward like an arrow and pierced through the head of the beast.

It killed the beast on the spot!

At this moment, Emperor Qin’s eyes were flashing gold.

Shoosh –

Qin Yu snapped back to reality. His face was rigid.

Golden eyes…Qin Yu felt that those eyes were familiar, as though he had seen them somewhere before.

As he was deep in thought, White Feifei returned to his side. She confirmed, “My Lord, you are right. It was Emperor Qin who killed it!”

Her puzzlement and surrpise could be heard in her voice.

Qin Yu said, “It seems like the Vast Brightness Will is right…Emperor Qin is truly unrivalled in this world…his background is unordinary!”

White Feifei nodded, “My Lord, you have to be extra careful. Even though you broke through to the King realm, you cannot take Emperor Qin head on.”

A King realm swordsman was strong and she felt threatened by Qin Yu.

However, Emperor Qin had personally killed a Longevity Species many years ago…how scary was this!

Qin Yu said, “Don’t worry. After becoming a True King, I still might not be a match for Emperor Qin, but I think I would be able to protect myself.”

His eyes were bright as he stared at the massive beast corpse, “White Feifei, is this corpse considered an Eternal?”

White Feifei nodded, “Of course. Furthermore, it is a top grade Eternal because it is a corpse of a Longevity Species…it is a complete corpse.”

She looked at Qin Yu, “If you can refine this beast’s corpse, your powers will surge and you can become an Eternal. You may gain special abilities that are closely tied to a Longevity Species. You will become an Eternal who will live forever!”

Qin Yu was silent for a while. Eventually, he shook his head, “I am not going to refine this beast’s corpse…perhaps, there are better uses for it.”
