Seeking the Flying Sword Path

Chapter 413: Hundred Swords

Translator: CKtalon Editor: CKtalon

When the thousand-foot-wide sword beam streaked across the sky, carving a fierce path to its target, the Connate Golden Core demons, as well as the ordinary fiendcelestials, quaked in fear. Qin Yun’s Dao domain was just too terrifying. It had killed all the Boor Ancestral Sect disciples in one swift blow and the sword beam’s might was truly terrifying. It had reached the power of a Skyimmortal.

"How is this Qin Yun that strong?"

"So many junior brothers and sister have died. Does our Boor Ancestral Sect have a chance of fending him off?" The disciples were struck with unease.

The single-horned ox fiend, Patriarch Monkey, and Aged Fiend Goat Horn were only infuriated!

"A Dao domain is formless and invisible. An array formation cannot even stop it." Aged Fiend Goat Horn’s voice was sharp. "But he can forget about cracking our Boor Ancestral Sect’s array formation with that flying sword."

Hum!

Layers of black light condensed above the sect’s hall along with the appearance of countless runic patterns that enveloped the entire hall.

"Every generation, my Boor Ancestral Sect continues to fortify and perfect this array formation. It has done so for over hundreds of thousands of years. How can he crack it?" The ox fiend scoffed. He was also controlling the array formation personally. As his Boor Ancestral Sect had existed for a very long period of time, it had naturally produced some very powerful fiendcelestials. There were some who even matched Skyfiends but failed to become one because the world’s Heaven Earth Essence Qi was repugnant to fiendcelestials.

If they tried to survive the Heavenly Tribulation, the potency of the tribulation would be extremely terrifying. It was nearly impossible to succeed.

Therefore, no true Skyfiend had ever been born from the Nine Lineage Fiendish Demons in all of recorded history!

One had to know that the humans of the Great Chang world had been in dire situations before. The Daoists, Buddhists, Godfiends, magi, and dragons had produced Skyimmortals, Bodhisattvas, Grand Magi, and Skydragons many times throughout history. Many of them eventually died in battle! Some were unwilling to fight for the Great Chang world. They abandoned their homeworld and embarked on a path of cultivation that only served their own pleasure.

Even so, the Great Chang world now had several Skyimmortals and Skygods like Ancestral Master Zhang.

Yet, the Nine Lineage Fiendish Demons did not have a single Skyfiend in all of history because the entire world was united against the Fiendcelestial lineage! The Fiendcelestial lineage had never managed to conquer the world as a result.

The Boor Ancestral Sect had certainly produced fiendcelestials that matched the Skyfiend realm before. But they could only leave the Great Chang world and head for fiendcelestial worlds. Only in those worlds where they were not ostracized would they have a chance of surviving the Heavenly Tribulations.

But with all of those combined insight, the array formations left behind by every generation naturally evolved into something extremely powerful! There were also those that became Skyfiends and sent treasures back to their sect through world rifts.

"Go." The ox fiend commanded his array formation.

"Finish Qin Yun as soon as possible to prevent any unforeseen catastrophes from happening." Patriarch Monkey was also controlling the array formation.

...

In midair, countless arrows gathered, each arrow combining to form a dense horde that surged and surrounded the Misty Rain Sword!

"Swoosh!" The Misty Rain Sword was extremely sharp, allowing it to tear through the countless arrows cleanly. However, there were just too many arrows, causing the momentum of the Misty Rain Sword to constantly weaken as it broke through the arrows’ impediment. When the finally sword struck the black barrier of light that protected the sect’s grand hall, the barrier trembled and even cracked. However, the barrier managed to hold.

"I haven’t even taken action. Just the array formation alone is enough to fend off his sword." The ox fiend flipped his hand and grabbed a huge ax that appeared. He smiled sinisterly at the Misty Rain Sword that had struck the black barrier of light.

"Brother Monkey, will you not act yet?" urged Aged Fiend Goat Horn.

"Controlling the Eight Gates Fiend Saber Array is a most complicated endeavor," commented Patriarch Monkey. "Besides, this sword immortal’s Intrinsic Flying Sword is most powerful. I’ll wait till his flying sword attacks again and then I’ll attack his body directly. His flying sword will not be able to return to protect him in time and there will be a chance of me destroying him in one fell swoop."

The single-horned ox fiend nodded in approval.

The Boor Ancestral Sect’s array formation that had been improved on for hundreds of thousands of years was not something Ancestral Master Zhang and company could crack without implicating a large number of innocent mortals! After all, the Boor Ancestral Sect had amassed a large number of humans to live in the mountains amid their lair.

"Brother Yun, their Boor Ancestral Sect’s array formation is really powerful." Yi Xiao could not help but comment when she witnessed the might of the array formation.

"I have to probe it first before finding an opportunity to crack it," said Qin Yun.

Not a single lineage of the Nine Lineage Fiendish Demons was that easily obliterated, much less the Boor Ancestral Sect that had existed since ancient times.

It was only because of the Major Transference Dao talisman and him being a unique mortal that possessed the strength of a Skyimmortal that made the possibility of vanquishing the Boor Ancestral Sect possible.

"Go." Qin Yun directed with his mind.

The wisp of misty rain continued flying up and smashing against the barrier despite being surrounded by large numbers of arrows.

Now the Misty Rain Sword was extremely powerful when it cleaved down in midair, as though it was a huge ax that could render the world asunder.

It was using the strongest and most oppressive fifth move of his Dreamlike Sword, Traveling in Solitude! After reuniting with Yi Xiao, Qin Yun figured out the final, seventh strike of his Dreamlike Sword, Stars Like Rain. His Sword Dao realm was naturally enhanced also. The earlier sword moves... were naturally perfected as a result. However, all of this required time! After all, he had only just figured out Stars Like Rain before he began the battle.

"I shall perfect this move in this battle," thought Qin Yun.

"Boom—"

Traveling in Solitude!

The flying sword had indomitable might as it carved through the void, producing a black void rift. After destroying many of the arrows that were surrounding it, it attacked the layers black light again. Five layers of black light shattered, leaving only the final layer intact!

"Now’s the time!" Patriarch Monkey immediately triggered the prepared array formation when Qin Yundirected the Misty Rain Sword to cleave the air above the sect’s grand hall. "Eight Gates Fiend Saber Array!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The mountains amid the Boor Ancestral Sect rumbled as a massive array chart in each mountain activated.

Eight array charts were stirring up the massive Heaven and Earth powers.

"Oh?" Qin Yun noticed it immediately.

Eight gigantic sabers that suffused fiendish auras appeared from underground. They took up eight spots around him.

"Kill!" Patriarch Monkey’s eyes were filled with anticipation.

The Eight Gates Fiend Saber Array was ranked second among the Boor Ancestral Sect’s decimation arrays! But in terms of trapping enemies, it was the best. Once the Eight Gates were sealed, an enemy had nowhere to hide! They could only defend. Patriarch Monkey also hoped to use this opportunity to slay Qin Yun, so he had brought out the Eight Gates Fiend Saber Array.

The eight sabers appeared as one, powered by the array formation’s gathering of strength. The blades had runic patterns that swirled about as the void beside the blades constantly cracked.

"What impressive might." Qin Yun did not panic. He flipped his hand and took out a gigantic black sword.

"Split."

Qin Yun directed with his mind.

The black sword began producing grinding sounds internally as it split apart just like the Seven Kills Sword that Qin Yun had once obtained! But instead of breaking into seven pieces, this sword could split into a hundred swords! It was one of the two inferior-grade Numinous treasures that Qin Yun had obtained in the Ancient Augury World’s pagoda. He was very delighted to receive this Numinous treasure named the Heavy Water Sword. It could attack many targets at once while also defending him like a wave of water.

But in Qin Yun’s hands, the hundred swords could be used as one. They easily formed a Cyclic Sword Flash.

"The Cyclic Sword Flash is indeed better when there are more flying swords. It’s best if there are 360 swords as that matches the number of Heavenly Cycles. That would be perfect," thought Qin Yun.

"Whoosh~"

The hundred swords naturally combined their powers to form a Cyclic Sword Flash world that protected him from the incoming assault. The Heavenly Cycles sword flashes resembled water waves.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Amid an incessant hum, the Eight Gates Fiend Saber Array unleashed its barrage of attacks simultaneously. The Cyclic Sword Flash was surrounded.

The Cyclic Sword Flash produced waves of water that were perfect and flawless, completely withstanding the Eight Gates Fiend Saber Array’s attack.

Yi Xiao couldn’t help but look nervous since it was a clash between the Boor Ancestral Sect, with its hundreds of thousands of years of heritage, and Qin Yun on his own.

Qin Yun sensed the anxiety from his wife’s grip and smiled at her. "Don’t worry. This is a rare chance to obliterate the Boor Ancestral Sect. Ancestral Master Zhang and company have already made the preparations. They have also given me several treasures. This time, we will see if the Boor Ancestral Sect’s heritage is truly that deep, or the means available to us are more powerful."

...

And at that moment.

Daoist Divine Firmament, Human Emperor, Bodhisattva Mahākāśyapa, Skydemon Palatial Lord, East Sea Skydragon, and Patriarch Bai were streaking across the sky amid a purple bolt of lightning. They were only a few hundred kilometers away from the Boor Ancestral Sect.

"Oh?" Ancestral Master Zhang’s Eye of Lightning was already open in between his brows.

Bodhisattva Mahākāśyapa was also casting his Heavenly Eye divine power.

All of them were using their own means to see what was happening inside the Boor Ancestral Sect.

"What happened?" Patriarch Bai asked immediately. He was incapable of seeing past the Boor Ancestral Sect’s array formations to spy on the situation inside.

"Qin Yun is fighting them but the outcome is still up in the air," said Ancestral Master Zhang.
