Chapter 890: Qin Shenwu's Breakthrough to Mahayana, Overpowering Daolord Southbright
Without a moment’s hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan took out his Plundering Array Disc and gave it a light toss.
Instantaneously, the natural restriction array that was previously within the natural herb garden was released by Jiang Chengxuan outside of Shenwu Peak.
In an instant, all external disturbances, including the energies brought forth by Daolord Southbright and others upon their arrival, vanished without a trace.
At least for Qin Shenwu atop Shenwu Peak, the external world no longer posed the slightest influence on him.
Unless someone could break through the Haoran Sect’s mountain-protecting grand array and begin attacking the natural restriction, Qin Shenwu would no longer be affected by external forces.
However, breaking through the Haoran Sect’s mountain-protecting grand array was an impossibility.
Even with Daolord Southbright, a Mahayana Daolord present, it remained an unattainable feat.
This development caused Daolord Southbright and others outside to drastically change their expressions.
They had never anticipated that the Haoran Sect had such a move up its sleeve.
“What should we do now, Senior Southbright?” Bai Ziliang couldn’t help but look towards Daolord Southbright.
He was well aware that under the current circumstances, influencing Qin Shenwu had become nearly impossible.
Daolord Southbright was also clear about this, but to give up so easily was something he was truly unwilling to accept.
Boom!
Just then, atop Shenwu Peak, where Qin Shenwu was located, an immensely majestic aura suddenly rose.
The colors of the heavens and earth seemed to be influenced by this aura, alternating between red, yellow, and blue, and the divine chains of the rules became even clearer.
Nearly every cultivator nearby could clearly see and feel this.
Especially those whose cultivation was on the verge of breakthrough, merely in this brief moment, those who had been stuck at their bottlenecks for ages managed to break through successfully.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At the same time.
The heavens and earth began to rumble one after another.
Then, golden lotuses sprung from the ground, and endless radiance started to spread rapidly in all directions from Mount Shenwu as the center.
“Oh no!”
The expressions of Daolord Southbright, Bai Ziliang, and the others finally underwent a complete change.
They could see that Qin Shenwu’s breakthrough had reached its final phase and was about to succeed.
At this point, whatever they wished to do or stop, it was clearly too late.
Indeed.
Just as Daolord Southbright and Bai Ziliang were harboring those thoughts, an aura that only a Mahayana Daolord could emit suddenly burst forth from Shenwu Peak, where Qin Shenwu resided.
Then, above the sky, a figure bathed in radiant light slowly emerged.
Who else could it be if not Qin Shenwu?
“Congratulations to Shifu for the successful breakthrough!”
Jiang Chengxuan and the others immediately voiced their congratulations.
This included Xue Ping, Yun Yizhen, and everyone else without exception.
“Hahaha!”
Laughter thundered from the sky, Qin Shenwu’s gaze sweeping over Jiang Chengxuan and the others.
Finally, he spoke,
“Everyone, please wait here for a moment. I’ll go and settle the accounts with Southbright and the others.”
With those words, Qin Shenwu’s entire being suddenly transformed into a streak of light.
Daolord Southbright, who was just outside the Haoran Sect’s mountain gate, suddenly seemed as if hit by a laser, instantly sent flying backwards.
Boom!
Several continuous mountain ranges in the distance were instantly reduced to dust.
“Cough cough cough…”
Daolord Southbright, amidst the dust clouds, couldn’t stop coughing.
He looked up in shock at Qin Shenwu flying towards him, unable to believe that Qin Shenwu, who had just broken through to the Mahayana Daolord realm, could possess such strength.
Whoosh—
Suddenly, in the sky, a five-colored palm appeared, descending swiftly towards Daolord Southbright’s head.
“Southbright, since you obstructed my path before, do not blame me now for showing no courtesy.”
Boom!
The five-colored radiant palm directly smashed Daolord Southbright into the ground.
This scene immediately shocked everyone present.
Daolord Southbright was, after all, a veteran Mahayana Daolord, yet he appeared so helpless in front of the newly advanced Qin Shenwu.
“Qin Shenwu, do not go too far!”
Suddenly.
Daolord Southbright’s figure reappeared, this time his face full of rage.
However, Qin Shenwu paid no heed to his anger.
With a raise of his hand, there was a rumble.
The five-colored radiant palm once again descended towards Daolord Southbright.
Whoosh—
Suddenly, a large umbrella appeared above Daolord Southbright’s head, its body yellow in color and spreading out clouds of auspiciousness, seemingly to withstand Qin Shenwu’s strike.
However, the moment Daolord Southbright’s large umbrella came into contact with Qin Shenwu’s five-colored radiant palm, the light from the umbrella rapidly dimmed.
There was a thud.
The large umbrella was sent flying, and once again, Daolord Southbright was smashed into the ground by the giant palm transformed by Qin Shenwu.
BOOM!
In that instant, Daolord Southbright burst forth from the ground, his eyes blazing with anger.
Yet, upon seeing Qin Shenwu, who was eager to strike again, his gaze shrank.
The next moment, without any hesitation, his entire being turned into a series of afterimages, and in the blink of an eye, he had disappeared from in front of Qin Shenwu.
Seeing this, Qin Shenwu did not pursue.
After all, they were both Mahayana Daolords.
With Qin Shenwu’s current strength, overpowering and defeating the opponent was easy.
But to kill the opponent was still unlikely.
However, for Bai Ziliang from the Five Elements Heavenly Sect, Qin Shenwu saw a bit more of an opportunity.
Without wasting any words,
He raised his hand and grabbed.
There was a buzz.
The space around Bai Ziliang suddenly turned as solid as a slab of iron.
The onlookers saw the space, now iron-like, beginning to compress inward, as if intending to crush Bai Ziliang into powder.
At this moment, Bai Ziliang clearly sensed the danger.
He could no longer care about anything else, and a five-colored lantern appeared in his hands.
The lantern immediately burst forth with brilliant five-colored rays.
In an instant, it momentarily withstood the crushing pressure of the surrounding space.
