Chapter 519 A Sword Strike Splits Spirit Mountain

A Great Luo True Monarch unleashed his full power, driving the Refining Demon Immortal Sword in a sweeping slash—what magnificent and overwhelming heavenly might this was.

The might of this sword strike from Eldrin was overwhelming, like the Milky Way pouring down from the highest heavens. Its radiance could pierce through all defenses, and its sword aura was utterly unstoppable.

Facing such a sword, not only the 2 True Monarchs of the Qin Clan, but all living beings within a radius of 1,000,000 li witnessed the resplendent sword radiance illuminating the 9 heavens, their faces uniformly contorting with awe and terror.

In the Yuan Nation Market of the Qin Clan, a Golden Core Elder trembled as he uttered, "A single swordstroke arrives from the east, like the Milky Way descending from the highest heavens—vast, majestic, and utterly unstoppable."

"How could the Qin Immortal Clan have provoked such a formidable foe?"

Some Golden Core Elders wore expressions of sheer terror, feeling as if an apocalyptic calamity had descended. They swiftly transformed into streaks of light and fled, clearly unwilling to be drawn into such a cataclysmic battle.

Clang—

Millions of miles away, within the Celestial Abode Sect, a grand bell spirit treasure seemed to sense something and erupted with a thunderous chime.

Within the training grounds of Tianlu Sect, 4 True Lords soared into the sky 1 after another, their faces shifting between alarm and bewilderment as they gazed toward the direction of the Yuan Kingdom.

A True Lord’s expression shifted in astonishment, his pupils contracting slightly as he remarked, “The power of this strike seems to approach the late Nascent Soul stage. Could it be that Magnus the Virtuous Lord has made a move?”

"Certainly not Magnus the Virtuous Lord."

The Sect Master of Tianlu shook his head, his gaze grave as he said, "Magnus the Virtuous Lord is not a sword cultivator. Moreover, this sword intent aligns with that of the Sword Immortal of Jizhou, who has risen to prominence in recent years."

Speaking of Eldrin (Person Name), the Sect Master of Heavenly Abode’s gaze grew slightly solemn. After a moment, he remarked, “So long as Eldrin (Person Name) does not fall prematurely, he will most likely become a powerful True Monarch at the late Nascent Soul stage in the future. It is unwise to offend such a person.”

"This matter has nothing to do with us. Presumably, he will give us an explanation afterward."

Even the onlookers believed this strike was peerless in its lethality.

At this moment, the pressure confronting the 2 True Monarchs of the Qin Clan upon their ancestral training grounds far surpassed anything they could have imagined as they faced this sword strike.

In the heat of the moment, the Qin Clan Patriarch immediately took action, activating the Mountain Protection Array.

Boom—

But with a deafening roar, a pale golden treasure seal soared into the sky from atop the Qin Clan's spirit mountain.

That treasure seal was named the Gilded Heaven Seal, a numinous treasure capable of both offense and defense, and also served as the mountain-guarding array artifact of the Qin Immortal Clan.

As the treasure seal descended to suppress the heavens and earth, propping up a golden barrier of protective energy to shield the spirit mountain, the members of the Qin Clan finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Then, before their very eyes, the unstoppable sword radiance descended, crashing thunderously onto the Spirit Mountain Grand Array. In the next instant, it tore through the formation with a single, decisive strike.

"Damn it."

The Qin Clan Patriarch’s expression shifted abruptly, never expecting Eldrin to shatter the mountain-protecting formation with but a single strike of his sword.

But then, after that sword radiance tore through the formation, it split into 2 streaks of light that scattered apart, flying deep into the void.

From the depths of the void, Eldrin withdrew the Celestial Li Swords with a flick of his sleeve, advancing through the emptiness like a white-robed immortal descending from the heavens.

“Eldrin (Person Name)…”

As the snow-robed figure approached, Qin Duzun’s expression shifted slightly, a trace of fear flickering across his face.

The Qin Clan's Mountain Protection Array was exceptionally powerful, with a lower-grade spirit treasure serving as its core and a fifth-tier, lower-grade spirit vein providing its foundation.

To breach such a formation, 1 would require at least 1 superior-grade spirit treasure adept in offensive tactics. A superior-grade spirit treasure is sufficient to serve as a clan-guarding supreme treasure for a Nascent Soul-level sect.

Even the Sky Abode Sect, though in possession of a superior-grade Eldrin (Spiritual Treasure), did not wield a weapon of ultimate slaughter.

It was precisely because of this spiritual mountain’s presence that the 2 True Monarchs of the Qin Clan believed that, even if they were no match for Eldrin, they could still retreat to the family’s dojo.

At this moment, Eldrin was channeling his power to merge the twin swords into 1, unleashing a strike nearly comparable to that of a superior demon-slaying immortal sword. With a single blow, he shattered the Qin Clan's mountain-protecting grand formation, completely catching them off guard.

At that thought, Qin Duzun turned to the Qin Clan Leader and said, "Elder Brother, we cannot defeat this man by force. We should retreat quickly."

"So be it, then."

The Patriarch of the Qin Clan let out a sigh and was about to flee into the depths of the void.

But since Eldrin had made his move, how could he possibly let them escape?

Lyra had long been prepared. Without hesitation, she activated the Ji Earth Kunyuan Plate, causing arrays of runes to envelop the void and seal off the entire area.

Immediately thereafter, the Yin-Yang Void Mirror tore through the void, suppressing the heavens and earth across thousands of miles.

"Damn it!"

The Qin Clan Leader’s expression shifted abruptly. Seeing the void sealed off, Qin Duzun swiftly summoned a cyan immortal sword.

This sword was named the Solitary Sovereign Blade, the life-bound spiritual treasure of Qin Duzun, and its rank had already reached the level of a lower-grade spiritual treasure.

However, the moment this sword was drawn, it was seized by the forces of Yin-Yang Magnetic Polarity and sent flying toward the Mirror of Returning Abyss (Magic Treasure).

That Qin Duzun had broken through to the Nascent Soul stage 4 100 years ago, yet had only just advanced to the second level of Nascent Soul. Moreover, he had merely formed a Mortal Dao Nascent Soul, so his spiritual power was far inferior to Eldrin's.

Now that his spiritual treasure was also being suppressed, he could only watch helplessly as Eldrin seized the flying sword.

"My Immortal Sword!"

Qin Duzun cried out in pain, desperate to reclaim his immortal sword.

On the other side, Patriarch Qin swiftly suppressed the urge to activate his spiritual treasures. Both treasures in his possession were of the metal attribute, severely countered by the Yin-Yang Void Mirror.

With no other choice, he could only grit his teeth and instantly unleashed his Nascent Soul Qi (Spiritual Root).

The Qin Clan Patriarch had now reached the Nascent Soul, 3rd Tier (Cultivation Realm). By unleashing his Nascent Soul Qi (Spiritual Root), his spiritual power had already brushed against the threshold of the Nascent Soul, Mid Stage (Cultivation Realm).

Relying on his formidable magic power, the Qin Clan Patriarch unleashed his innate divine ability, manifesting a black treasure vase that shot toward the Yin-Yang Void Mirror.

This black treasure bottle was known as the 'Abyssal Annihilation Vase Seal' (Supreme Mystic Art), a grand divine ability of immense power. It could absorb all things between heaven and earth—even a Nascent Soul True Monarch, once drawn inside, would be annihilated into calamity ashes.

The Clan Lord of the Qin Clan was a Human Path Nascent Soul, and it could be said that this divine ability was already his ultimate life-bound great power.

As soon as this divine power manifested, a black whirlwind arose, attempting to draw the Mirror of Yin, Yang, and Void (Magic Treasure) into its grasp.

Lyra frowned. Once the Mirror of Yin, Yang, and Void was retrieved, there was truly no chance these 2 mere tourists could escape with their lives.

With this thought, she raised her hand and swept it forward. The Heaven-Void Immortal-Slaying Sword descended with overwhelming might, poised to shatter the Black Abyss Annihilation Treasure Vase Seal.

"Do not let him succeed."

The Qin Clan Patriarch shouted a command. Upon hearing this, Qin Dukong acted decisively, channeling his defensive divine ability to dart forward and block Lyra (Person Name)'s strike.

It was in that brief moment of delay that the Black Abyss Annihilation Treasure Vase Seal began to absorb so fiercely that the Yin-Yang Void Mirror started to tremble violently.

"Hmph—"

Fortunately, Eldrin arrived just in time. With a cold sneer, he flicked his sleeves and unleashed 2 bolts of lightning—the legendary Water-Fire Divine Thunder.

The crimson and azure lightning descended with the speed of chasing stars and overtaking moons, instantly shattering the Black Abyss Annihilation Treasure Vase Seal into fragments.

"It's over."

The Qin Clan Leader’s heart skipped a beat. Without a second thought for the restraint imposed by the Yin-Yang Void Realm, he summoned 2 spiritual treasures to block the attack.

Qin Dukong possessed 2 innate spiritual treasures. 1 was named the Stellaris Chalice, while the other was known as the Primal Void Shield.

That Star-Moon Vessel (Magic Treasure) was a unique offensive spirit artifact, capable of drawing power from the starry river to unleash a grand stellar-lunar divine ability, its might truly extraordinary.
