Chapter 717 - 715: Slaying Divinity Transformation

Chapter 717: Chapter 715: Slaying Divinity Transformation

Mountain ridges collapsed one after another, the ground sank, rivers and mountains cracked. The two Great Cultivators battled fiercely, turning the heavens and earth dim. Countless spirit lights flickered like falling stars, leaving the disciples of Treasure Bottle Sect and Demon Cloud Sect stunned and unwilling to approach even a fraction closer!

After dozens of probing moves.

Ning Daoran raised his hand and slapped his Storage Bag, swiftly setting up the Ten Directions Forbidden Array and the Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Formation. The purpose of deploying these two arrays was none other than to completely kill Law Breaker the Star Monarch. Having harbored animosity for years, Ning Daoran would never allow the opponent’s Nascent Soul to escape.

"A wretch like you dares to think of killing me?"

Law Breaker the Star Monarch roared furiously, no longer holding back. Several spiritual treasures were summoned, his entire body surged with Divinity Transformation Power, and the Dharma Image behind him unfolded directly, standing tall between heaven and earth!

Ning Daoran flicked his sleeves, and immediately the Nine Dragon Treasure Mirror shot forth, transforming into a streak of golden light in the wind, raining down and instantly enveloping the opponent within. Simultaneously, the Fire God Sword, Thunder Sword, and Blood-drinking Sword launched their assault from three directions, forming a triangular formation to attack Law Breaker the Star Monarch!

"You’re courting death!"

Law Breaker the Star Monarch growled deeply, pushing out with his palms, as streaks of azure threads coiled from his hands and burst forth. The threads carried Divinity Transformation Power and struck the three swords with crackling sounds. Explosions erupted mid-air, causing the three swords to sway uncontrollably and miss their targets.

After all, the opponent was a genuine Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator. It was almost impossible to overpower and crush him outright.

Yet Law Breaker the Star Monarch’s situation was equally precarious. When he attempted to contend with Ning Daoran using his Nascent Soul Late Stage combat power, he fell into disadvantage almost instantaneously and was forced to summon Divinity Transformation Power to resist.

But by doing so, overusing his Divinity Transformation Power would inevitably deplete his Immortal Origin Power and Primordial Qi within, ultimately resulting in defeat!

And yet, the most horrifying aspect was that Ning Daoran could withstand Divinity Transformation Power entirely and seemed utterly fearless!

"Buzz~~~"

The Big Green Dragon rose, transforming into a colossal beast hundreds of meters long, sweeping through the air viciously toward Law Breaker the Star Monarch!

"Rise!"

That spear strike was infused with overwhelming power, emanating from a Late-stage Chaos Martial Arts Grandmaster’s blow. Law Breaker the Star Monarch dared not show the least bit of negligence, hurrying to spit out his lifeblood artifact — a deep azure Jade Plate. The Jade Plate expanded rapidly with treasure light swirling, forming a shield that protected his physical body!

"Boom~~~"

A thunderous explosion reverberated, causing nearby cultivators to clutch their ears, fearful of the shockwave damaging their eardrums.

Ning Daoran’s momentum-filled strike landed on the Jade Plate, sending a powerful recoil back to his hand. His right hand tingled slightly from the impact, yet the spear failed to break through the opponent’s defense.

When Law Breaker the Star Monarch imbued the Jade Plate with Divinity Transformation Power, its defensive capabilities reached an extremely terrifying level!

"Go!"

Ning Daoran didn’t hesitate, raising his hand to flick his sleeve. Immediately, a trickle of gentle wind was released.

The moment this trickle of wind rushed from the void, it transformed instantly into a storm. With a loud "boom," it blew heavily onto the Jade Plate, and soon the surface of its spirit light began eroding, leaving pitted and uneven marks!

"What!?"

Law Breaker the Star Monarch’s expression shifted dramatically. He hastily summoned another defensive ancient treasure, a gourd-shaped Treasure Bottle adorned with intricate patterns and brimming with thick Treasure Essence Qi!

Top-grade Spiritual Treasure!

Ning Daoran furrowed his brows, raising the Big Green Dragon once again and drawing upon the Golden Silk Sword, Fire God Sword, and others. He activated the Dual Yin Sword Intent, launching attacks from all directions and leaving Law Breaker the Star Monarch stretched thin and barely able to defend!

Indeed, when a Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator fully focused on defense, Kunwu’s Wind’s corrosive power, though terrifying, could not directly kill them. Nonetheless, the Spirit Wind remained an extremely powerful technique, capable of immobilizing the Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator and forcing him into full defensive mode. This afforded Ning Daoran room to deploy other attacks, making Law Breaker the Star Monarch’s predicament even worse.

"Fall!"

After another round of dozens of moves, under the pincer attack of Kunwu’s Wind and the Golden Silk Sword, Law Breaker the Star Monarch grew increasingly flustered. At this moment, Ning Daoran’s spear descended once more, forcing the opponent to raise both hands to block with spiritual treasure. At that exact moment, Ning Daoran instantaneously teleported, his body surging with lightning, and delivered a fist imbued with immense strength straight to the Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator’s face!

"Boom~~~"

Law Breaker the Star Monarch’s face twisted as he was turned into a meteor, crashing violently into the earth below!

"Rise!"

Ning Daoran didn’t pause for an instant. He descended swiftly and struck the ground with his spear, inflicting a tectonic shockwave that launched Law Breaker the Star Monarch’s body into the sky once more!

"Ning Daoran!"

Law Breaker the Star Monarch roared in anger, bellowing, "You’re truly crossing the line!"

Ning Daoran soared into the air, with streaks of Golden Silk Sword transforming into radiant golden light behind him. With a slight gesture of his finger, streaks of sword light flew forth, fiercely attacking the opponent. Simultaneously, Ning Daoran sneered lightly, saying, "You’ve repeatedly relied on your Divinity Transformation cultivation to bully my Treasure Bottle Sect for lacking a Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator. You wretched scoundrel are the one who crossed the line. Today, I, Ning Daoran, will rid the Eastern Wasteland Cultivation World of this scourge by annihilating your degenerate Divinity Transformation self!"

At once, the disciples within the array of Treasure Bottle Sect stared in astonishment. Many inwardly exclaimed that their Sect Master was truly extraordinary!

Meanwhile, Demon Cloud Sect’s ten thousand members displayed mixed emotions.

Those loyal to Law Breaker the Star Monarch gritted their teeth, unable to believe their venerable Ancestor was completely incapable of retorting under Ning Daoran’s relentless assault, appearing less like a Divinity Transformation Cultivator. Those forced into submission, however, began secretly rejoicing, wishing fervently that Ning Daoran would slay Law Breaker the Star Monarch to restore their sect’s freedom!

...

With deafening roars resonating, the battle between the two Great Cultivators tore through heaven and earth, shattering the northern rivers and mountains of Treasure Bottle Sect into ruins.

Ning Daoran remained patient, treating Law Breaker the Star Monarch as a Trial Sword Stone. Rather than unleashing every technique to kill him, Ning Daoran meticulously excavated Law Breaker the Star Monarch’s potential, analyzing every method of a Divinity Transformation Stage cultivator.

Thus, their battle extended beyond three hundred moves.

At this moment, Ning Daoran still donned his signature azure robe. While he had sustained several counterattacks, his demeanor remained refined and composed.

Conversely, Law Breaker the Star Monarch appeared utterly miserable. One arm hung limp, its bones shattered by the Big Green Dragon. His right leg was severed at the ankle by the Blood-drinking Sword, with strands of Blood Qi continually siphoned away by the sword. The gruesome state foretold his inevitable demise.

Even more horrifying was Kunwu’s Wind’s corrosion.

At this stage, Law Breaker the Star Monarch’s Immortal Origin Power was nearly exhausted, rendering him incapable of utilizing Divinity Transformation Power. His Divinity Transformation cultivation was crumbling, teetering toward Nascent Soul Stage. As Kunwu’s Wind ravaged him, his spiritual treasures turned to tatters, while his physical body rapidly disintegrated as flesh dissolved into dust, separating from his bones.

"Ancestor!"

A young boy suddenly cried, his face streaked with tears.

This youth was of Golden Core Middle Stage and possessed a First-grade Heavenly Spirit Root, a dazzling prodigy whose ascension to Nascent Soul or even Divinity Transformation seemed inevitable given enough time.

Regrettably, he had pledged allegiance to Law Breaker the Star Monarch.

"Ancestor, I will save you!"

The youth stepped forth boldly, gripping a longsword, his Golden Core aura surging. He roared furiously, "Jianjia True Monarch, you’re evil beyond redemption! You won’t kill my Ancestor!"

Perhaps, to him, Law Breaker the Star Monarch represented a benefactor who nurtured and elevated him, demanding reciprocity at all costs.

In mid-air, Ning Daoran’s gaze bore down with disdain.

"Retreat, or die!"

"Dream on!"

The youth unleashed a streak of sword light.

Ning Daoran no longer hesitated. His right hand raised the Big Green Dragon, slashing toward Law Breaker the Star Monarch, while his body twisted, his left hand spreading its fingers. Dragon Demon aura erupted as an overwhelming palm descended from the heavens!

"Boom~~~"

Palm force poured like a fiery cascade!

Unsurprisingly, the youth instantly transformed into a blood rain mid-air, leaving behind only the sword which drifted down weakly.

Glancing at the youth’s remains, Ning Daoran’s expression remained indifferent.

"What do you think?"

He looked toward Law Breaker the Star Monarch and sneered faintly, "Such an Immortal Seed – does Fellow Daoist feel heartache?"

"Heartache?"

Law Breaker the Star Monarch scoffed dismally, "A mere tool, an insignificant ant; why mourn such triviality?"

Ning Daoran chuckled lightly, tacitly agreeing.

For supreme Great Cultivators, the so-called geniuses occasionally amounted to less than nothing.

In the next instant, lightning streaked across the sky as Ning Daoran utilized the Nine Heavens Escape Thunder Technique alongside the Dragon Demon Heart Scripture, delivering consecutive blows that caused Law Breaker the Star Monarch to spit blood repeatedly. Meanwhile, Kunwu’s Wind continued its assault. By now, half of Law Breaker the Star Monarch’s body was in shreds.

"To think that I, a Divinity Transformation, would die at the hands of a Nascent Soul..."

Standing amidst the wind, Law Breaker the Star Monarch laughed bitterly, "Unwilling... so unwilling..."

"What is there to be unwilling about?"

Ning Daoran replied, "As a Divinity Transformation, had you remained peaceful in Jade Bottle Continent, I would’ve paid you the utmost respect. But you were self-serving and repeatedly attacked my Treasure Bottle Sect. Thus, Fellow Daoist’s death is deserved; you should rest in peace."

"Enough."

Law Breaker the Star Monarch appeared indifferent before his end, saying, "Fellow Daoist Ning, may I be granted the chance to destroy my own Nascent Soul?"

"Fellow Daoist dreams too much."

Ning Daoran’s spear roared forth and obliterated Law Breaker the Star Monarch’s physical body!

"Swish~~~"

A Nascent Soul streaked upwards, attempting to flee, only to be rebounded by the Ten Directions Forbidden Array, left with no escape.

Ning Daoran summoned the Golden Silk Sword and pierced the Nascent Soul with a "shlick," then fed it into the Spirit Garden Cave Heaven. Little Qing opened its mouth and gobbled it down, chewing with evident satisfaction.

...

In mid-air, fragments and remains of Law Breaker the Star Monarch scattered like rain, while Ning Daoran raised his hand to seize two Storage Rings and several Storage Bags, unwilling to miss the rich accouterments of a Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator.

At this moment, tranquility enveloped the heavens and earth, interrupted only by gentle breezes.

Immortal Boats hovered in the skies surrounding Treasure Bottle Sect. All battles ceased, with Demon Cloud Sect members staring in stunned silence at their sect master’s remains. None had imagined that a revered Divinity Transformation Stage could truly fall to a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, slain publicly no less!

Holding his Azure Dragon Spear, Ning Daoran surveyed the crowd imperiously, "Does anyone still wish to stand up for Law Breaker the Star Monarch?"
