Chapter 852: Chapter 852

The number of red fire spears was too many, shattering the yellow sound waves and rushing straight toward Shen Long.

Shen Long’s body emitted intense blue light, as a huge water wave tornado rose to the sky, obstructing the path in front of Shen Long.

The red fire spears, approaching within a hundred zhang of the water wave tornado, were pulled into it by a powerful suction force, disappearing without a trace.

Ba Yu raised his right hand, and a scythe with ceaseless red light flew out, turning into a crimson rainbow that charged directly toward Shen Long.

Shen Long brought out the Golden Chime Rod, swinging it to meet the crimson rainbow.

The collision of the crimson rainbow and the Golden Chime Rod created the sound of metal clashing; the crimson rainbow was sent flying backwards.

Void Fluctuation erupted, and a gargantuan red Sky-Supporting Giant Hand appeared above Shen Long’s head, slapping down towards him.

The Sky-Supporting Giant Hand hit Shen Long with precision, and he transformed into countless droplets of blue seawater.

Ba Yu slightly startled, his Divine Sense spread to its full extent, but he could not find Shen Long’s figure.

The sea beneath him burst apart, and a tremendous water wave tornado soared to the sky, rushing straight for Ba Yu.

Ba Yu frowned and his right hand shone brightly with red light, slapping forward a huge red palm that materialized in a flash and collided with the water wave tornado.

With a thunderous roar, the red giant palm shattered the water wave tornado, and mist pervaded the air.

A deafening dragon’s roar sounded, and from within the water wave tornado, a giant blue water dragon emerged.

The blue water dragon howled towards the heavens, unleashing a blue sonic wave straight at Ba Yu.

Caught by surprise, Ba Yu had no time to dodge; he quickly opened his mouth and expelled a beam of golden light to meet it.

The blue sonic wave and the golden light clashed and immediately dispersed.

Above Ba Yu, a ripple spread through the void, and a massive blue dragon claw appeared, striking towards Ba Yu.

True Dragon Capturing Immortal Claw!

The blue dragon claw hadn’t yet landed when the void twisted and warped, sealing off the area as if it were locked.

Ba Yu’s chest radiated intense red light; countless red Runes emerged, forming a thick red light barrier around his entire body. His right hand shone brightly as he slapped forward.

With the sound of the air tearing, a red giant palm materialized in a flash to meet the attack.

The red giant palm and the blue dragon claw collided, immediately shattering; the blue dragon claw, unstoppable in its momentum, struck the red light barrier.

With a "bang," the red light barrier caved in, its radiance dimming, and not long after, it shattered.

The blue dragon claw pierced through Ba Yu’s head, and his body lit up with a red light, revealing a spirit lotus flickering with light, which had only a single petal.

With a "snap," the lotus shattered.

A thousand miles away in the void, a red light shone, and Ba Yu appeared, his eyes filled with terror. Had it not been for the Tribulation-Substituting Treasure, he would have been dead.

"All Monsters Scripture!"

Ba Yu exclaimed in shock.

The blue giant dragon transformed into countless motes of blue mist and vanished, and as Ba Yu was about to cast a spell, a gust of wind blew past him, and a giant white tiger appeared in the void in front of him.

The white tiger opened its gaping maw and expelled a blast of green wind, shooting straight towards Ba Yu.

Ba Yu retreated, and his left arm, struck by the green wind, instantly turned into a blood rain, the blood flowing ceaselessly.

"Taoist Friend Shen, be cautious."

The urgent voice of Lin Luyao resounded.

No sooner had her words fallen, than a piercing sound ripped through the air, as a crimson rainbow shot forth, tearing open the void in its path, intimidating in its power.

The white tiger turned into a gust of wind and vanished, avoiding the crimson rainbow.

A wild wind passed through the void near Lin Luyao, and the white tiger reappeared, a flash of green light, and it transformed into the figure of Shen Long.

"All Monsters Scripture! That’s the Cultivation Technique you have cultivated."

Xiao Yan’s face was full of murderous intent.

The technique was widely circulated and indeed difficult to master, but it possessed very strong Divine Skills.

At this time, Teng Xiang and the man in the red robe also stopped fighting; they were utterly shocked.

At first, they did not believe that Shen Long could kill three Unity Cultivators, but now they had no more doubts.

"Taoist Friend Xiao, since we were merely sparring, wasn’t it inappropriate for you to intervene? Is this the integrity of your Bloodvine Clan?"

Shen Long said with a cold laugh.

He had intended to annihilate Ba Yu to avenge the grudge from the events in the Thousand Poison Cave, but he did not care about revealing the Cultivation Technique he was practicing.

The Myriad Beasts True Scripture wasn’t a forbidden technique; it was just widely known due to its association with the Ten Thousand Spirits Monarch and was infamous.

People cast shadows and trees show their bark; great strength could avoid many troubles and also secure certain conveniences.

Shen Long had ascended to the Unity Realm. Unity Cultivators in the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot were considered high rank battle forces. Shen Long saw no need to hide and be discreet anymore.

"Saying it’s a spar, yet Taoist Friend Shen used lethal force, is that appropriate?"

Xiao Yan’s tone was cold.

"He didn’t die, did he! How does not dying equate to using lethal force?"

"I don’t wish to argue with you. Let’s stop the spar here. If you want a fight to the death, I’m willing to oblige."

Xiao Yan said gravely.

"Taoist Friend Shen, we’re still unclear about the situation inside. There’s no need to engage in a life-or-death battle with him over this."

Lin Luyao sent a message to Shen Long.

"I have no objections. Let’s send someone in to inform the treasure hunters inside about the outside situation."

Lin Luyao nodded and sent out a messaging charm.

After a while, a red Escape Light appeared in the distant sky, flashed briefly, and then stopped, revealing a Red Flying Boat with hundreds of Void Refinement Cultivators standing on it.

"Go in and search for treasures! Inform the others about the situation outside."

Lin Luyao instructed.

"Yes, Master Aunt Lin."

The disciples replied and flew into the light gate.

A group of Heterodox Cultivators from a Different Clan flew in from a distance and entered the light gate one after another.

Now wasn’t the time for a great racial war; with no significant interest at stake, none of the Unity Cultivators present wanted a fight to the death. It wasn’t worth it.

Ba Yu greeted the others and left the place to heal his injuries.

Experts from both the Human Clan and the Different Clan swiftly converged towards the area, tense and ready for conflict. News of this battle also quickly spread.

Shennong Marketplace was a large marketplace controlled by the Human Clan, backed by Shennong Pavilion, and also the venue for the upcoming Shennong Grand Assembly.

Several more years were left before the formal start of the Shennong Grand Assembly. Many high rank Cultivators had already rushed over ahead of time.

In Shennong Garden, a rosy-cheeked elder in a green robe sat with Master Profound Mystery in a Green Stone Pavilion, sipping tea and chatting leisurely.

"After many years, I didn’t expect Taoist Friend Yu to have ascended to the late stage of Unity, congratulations!"

Master Profound Mystery said with envy on his face.

"I’ve been stuck at a bottleneck for tens of thousands of years. If it weren’t for consuming the Water Apricot Primordial Fruit, I might still be unable to resolve the bottleneck."

The elder in the green robe sighed.

Qinghua True Monarch, Deputy Master of Shennong Pavilion.

"Water Apricot Primordial Fruit!"

Master Profound Mystery suddenly realized.

"I heard Taoist Friend Ye went to attend the Unity celebration of Taoist Friend Shen from Qianling Sect. Taoist Friend Ye has a wide acquaintance! You never mentioned Taoist Friend Shen."

Qinghua True Monarch said meaningfully.

"I have some matters to discuss with Taoist Friend Shen. Right..."

Master Profound Mystery hadn’t finished speaking when a piercing shriek came from Qinghua True Monarch, causing him to frown.

Qinghua True Monarch took out a Law Disk shimmering with green light, entered a spell, and a look of surprise crossed his eyes.

"What happened, Taoist Friend Yu?"

Master Profound Mystery asked curiously.

"The Zouhua Cave of the Five-Colored Fairy has appeared, and Unity Cultivators from both the Four Seas Sect and the Bloodvine Clan have taken action to contest for the cave. Taoist Friend Shen from Qianling Sect has alone slain three Unity Realm Heterodox Cultivators and severely wounded Ba Yu of the Haixi Clan."

Qinghua True Monarch said slowly.

Shennong Marketplace had a large Messaging Array used to communicate with branch pavilions in the Qinglian Archipelago.

"What? Taoist Friend Shen alone slew three Unity Realm Heterodox Cultivators? And severely wounded Ba Yu?"

Master Profound Mystery’s face showed shock. He had not expected Shen Long to be so powerful.

"Absolutely true. This is the news passed on by the disciples of the Four Seas Sect."

Qinghua True Monarch said in a serious tone.
