Seeking the Flying Sword Path-Chapter 667 - Taking Action

It was Qin Yun’s first time entering a spatial tide. He found it quite interesting at the beginning of their journey, gazing upon the gorgeous sights in the spatial tide. It broadened his horizons, but gradually it turned lonely and monotonous. Qin Yun, Rushou, and Goumang all had extraordinary characters. As they flew, they diverted their attention towards cultivation. With that, 68 years passed without them realizing it.

“We’ve finally arrived!” Qin Yun, Rushou, Goumang and company looked ahead in excitement. In the boundless spatial tide was a floating mountain. They could vaguely make out buildings on the mountain which was their destination.

“The powerful being from a different universe is on that mountain.” Rushou smiled as he shot Qin Yun a glance. “Sword Immortal Qin, you have never flown for 68 years straight on a journey, right?”

“I was recruited by the Green Touring Palace early on and was able to reach anywhere in the Three Realms easily. It’s indeed my first time having flown for more than six decades.” Qin Yun smiled in reply while observing the mountain carefully. The mountain was black and void of vegetation. All he saw was some black light scattering which suppressed the surroundings.

The architectural styles of the buildings were different from that of the Three Realms. It was cruder and simpler.

Goumang stared at the mountain. “The means available to powerful beings of other universes are hard to predict. Both of you have your true bodies here, so you have to be careful.”

“Don’t worry,” Rushou said. “Let’s head over.”

“Let’s go.” Qin Yun was very solemn as well as he went on maximum alert.

Three beams of light approached the mountain.

“Hahaha… My Mt. Blackwater hasn’t had guests in a long while. Welcome.” A rich baritone voice sounded from the mountain. Simultaneously, golden light bloomed from deep within the mountain, transforming into a golden pathway that extended in front of Qin Yun and company.

A group of coquettish women flew over as they waited politely by the two sides of the golden pathway.

The trio was slightly taken aback.

These coquettish women were in human form as well. However, their heads had two blood-colored curved horns. On their backs were a pair of blood-colored wings and their eyes had a sanguine glow. They effused a stunning charm.

“Welcoming us?” Qin Yun, Goumang, and Rushou exchanged looks. All of them were alarmed and puzzled. Although they had never heard the language used by the mountain’s owner, they could instantly communicate through the intention conveyed by the language at their levels.

“He extended us an invitation to enter despite recognizing us as visitors from a different universe?” Qin Yun said with a voice transmission.

“Since he dares invite us, we will definitely dare enter,” said Rushou.

“Let’s go.”

Qin Yun and Goumang nodded.

The trio followed the golden path and flew in.

While flying, they observed the coquettish women beside them.

“These women have both form and spirit, but they are illusory condensations and not real beings.” Goumang observed as he said with a voice transmission.

“If there are that many powerful beings that survive in the spatial tides, it’s impossible for them to stay here alone,” said Rushou.

Qin Yun instead stared far away.

He saw it!

There was a majestic palace inside the mountain. In it was a black rock throne and sitting on that throne was a giant. The giant was muscular and dressed in a gorgeous robes, and he looked far into the distance at the approaching trio.

“What a powerful vital aura.” Qin Yun was secretly alarmed. “His vital aura is stronger than Rushou’s and mine. It’s comparable to Goumang’s. Goumang is a Wood God and his true form is that of a huge tree. His vital aura is considered one of the best among the perfected Great Dao in the Three Realms.”

The only being whose vital aura could compare with Goumang’s in the Three Realms was the dragons’ Ancestral Dragon.

For their target to be of the same level, it left Qin Yun, Rushou, and Goumang even warier.

“Guests, please have a seat,” said the giant with a smile “It’s rare for me to have guests. Now that three are here… I’m truly delighted.”

Meanwhile, many coquettish women served wine and delicacies.

“These are some of the finest wine and food from my hometown. Please, have some.” the giant smiled.

“We wouldn’t dare eat what you offer.” Rushou carefully observed his surroundings. “I have already checked our surroundings. There are no array formations or traps around us. You sure are confident.”

“Why should I lay a trap? Is there a prey?” The giant smiled. “I don’t see any prey, just three guests. It’s so rare to encounter guests from another universe in this spatial tide. Why should we engage in slaughter? Sit and enjoy the wine. Let’s have a good chat, shall we?”

“There’s no need for the food and drink,” Rushou said. “But a chat is possible.”

Qin Yun and Goumang listened by the side and did not interject. The operation was led by Rushou since he was the one who invited the two of them.

“Not eating?”

The giant looked at the fine wine and food and invited them sincerely, “Are you really not eating such delicious food? These were brought from my homeworld. Every bit eaten means one bit less.”

“There’s no need.” Goumang said as well.

The giant looked at the trio and knew that any further invitations for them to eat would be in vain. He immediately shook his head. “If it’s not eaten, it will be wasted. Do you know what I hate the most? It’s the wastage of food. All who waste food deserve death!”

With that said, his eyes turned sharp.

Whoosh!

The large numbers of coquettish female servants dissipated. Black water pattered down from an island.

“If you aren’t eating my fine wine and food, have a taste of my Mt. Blackwater’s black water!” said the giant coldly. He appeared courteous on the surface and the island did not appear to have any traps, but the food and drink had been tampered with! As long as a visitor from a different universe believed in their strength and consumed the food and drink, he was 99% certain he could control the visitor.

Since they were neither eating or drinking, he could only do it the hard way!

“Black water?”

Qin Yun looked at the black water that came splashing down. There was even black water droplets fluttering over from within the palace.

With a thought, Qin Yun’s Misty Rain domain fended off the black water droplets. There were sizzling sounds as the black water droplets began a conflict with the Misty Rain domain. The Misty Rain domain which Qin Yun had cast with an Intrinsic Connate Cardinal treasure was ranked within the top few among the perfected Great Dao in the Three Realms. Now, although the black water droplets were lethal and heavy, they were still fended off, with no way to intrude further.

Furthermore, the Misty Rain domain not only repelled the black water, it even enveloped the giant.

“Kill! Kill! Kill!”

The black water droplets turned into tiny black winged figures. Thousands of them held long spears and they were each the size of a finger. The dense horde of tiny black figures swarmed towards the palace and attacked Qin Yun.

Qin Yun directed with his mind.

Each raindrop in the drizzle within the Misty Rain domain also transformed into a flying sword. Countless flying swords met the tiny black figures and engaged in battle. With Qin Yun’s attainments in sword arts, every flying sword killed a tiny black figure. However, the lethal poison from the tiny black figures still corroded the drizzle flying swords. After three bouts of corrosion, a rain flying sword would collapse.

Thankfully, maintaining the domain was a very easy task.

“For the domain’s flying sword to collapse after three bouts of corrosion, this black water’s poison sure is terrifying,” said Rushou.

“If it taints one’s flesh, probably you and Sword Immortal Qin won’t be able to take it,” Goumang said via voice transmission.

Elsewhere.

The giant was very astonished.

“Your domain can actually suppress my black water.” The giant looked at Qin Yun. “In terms of domains, you are ranked in the top five among all the opponents I’ve met. As for the two of you—

Before he finished his sentence, Rushou had already waved his right hand. A golden beam shot out and appeared right in front of the giant.

The giant also slowed down when suppressed by the Misty Rain domain. He failed to use his weapon in time, so all he could do was extend his left hand to block his face.

“Pfft!”

The golden beam tore through his palm and pierced his face.

Golden light appeared once again. It was a sharp and golden pole arm. It penetrated the giant palm and stabbed into a part of the giant’s face.

“Oh?” Rushou frowned. With a beckon, the golden pole arm dissipated as a blob of golden light flew back into his sleeves.

“You actually hurt me? You hurt me? Hahaha… Interesting. Interesting.” The giant laughed out loud. Simultaneously, his body expanded rapidly. His massive body instantly smashed through the palace, turning it to dust. In a blink of an eye, he had become a hundred times bigger. His single foot was about the same size as the palace from before. He reached out his hand and a gigantic hammer appeared in his hand. Swirling around the hammer was black water.

The towering giant held the hammer in hand as he roared. His roar shook the entire mountain.

“Come on!”

“Show me what you got.”

“Don’t you die in an instant!”

The giant stamped his foot and charged over. At the same time, he swung his hammer down. Smashing down with the size and force of a mountain, it was attempting to crush Qin Yun and company into pulp.
