Chapter 363 : Sealed Void and Divine Flames

Seeing the void sealed, Malachai Qin felt his heart sink.

He still possessed two highly valuable Void-Escape Treasure Talisman in his grasp. Those Treasure Talisman [enchanted talismans of great power] could tear through the void, offering even Nascent Soul Cultivators [cultivators whose souls have taken nascent form] a measure of utility.

With these Treasure Talisman at hand, he had been confident that he stood a great chance of escaping even when facing Nascent Soul Cultivators. Yet, he never imagined they would be so thoroughly countered by the 'Violet Cosmos Void-Traversing Mirror' [a mystical mirror that governs the traversal of void-space].

"Esteemed one, we bear no grudge nor enmity. Why must you press for a fatal strike?"

"*Screeee—*"

The response was a brilliant, resonant hum of a sword. Lyra Jiang brought her Heaven's Ruin Immortal-Slaying Sword [a divine blade famed for slaying immortals] down in a vertical cleave, carrying the might to split the heavens and sunder the earth.

Malachai Qin hastily channeled his energy into a Black-Gold Ancient Alms Bowl [an ancient magical bowl forged from black-gold] to block. This treasure could manifest a protective dome of black-gold energy, capable of withstanding attacks from Immortal Sword [a sword of immortal grade] Magical Treasure [enchanted artifacts used by cultivators].

But the moment he blocked the Heaven's Ruin Immortal-Slaying Sword, Yvonne the Violet Consort raised her hand and unleashed a torrent of violet divine flame towards him.

"Disaster! It's the Violet Abyss Divine Flame!"

Watching the roaring inferno blaze towards him, Malachai Qin's pupils contracted slightly. The Violet Abyss Divine Flame [a supreme divine flame technique] was the guardian Divine Ability [a supreme mystical technique] of the Violet Abyss Sect [a major cultivation sect].

This Divine Ability was passed down from Ziqing the Twin-Toned Lord. If one simultaneously mastered the 'Green Sun Divine Flame', one could comprehend the Great Divine Ability known as 'Violet-Cyan Divine Flame'.

Although the Green Sun Divine Flame had been lost for many years since the fall of the Twin-Toned Sect, this Violet Abyss Divine Flame alone already possessed power that half-stepped into the realm of a Great Divine Ability.

Recognizing the origin of this Violet Abyss Divine Flame, Malachai Qin felt a flicker of alarm in his heart. He swiftly summoned his second Life-Bound Magical Treasure, the 'Violet-Infused Mist Veil Canopy', which actually managed to withstand the incineration of the Violet Abyss Divine Flame.

"This cur!"

Eldrin Chen inwardly noted with a hint of surprise. Both of Malachai Qin's Life-Bound Magical Treasure were actually Defensive Magical Treasure. Just how afraid of death was this man?

Pushing the thought aside, he waved his hand and summoned the Thousand-Demon Slaying Sword. This supreme Immortal Sword danced and cleaved through the air, relentlessly assailing his opponent's Defensive Magical Treasure in an attempt to breach its defenses and claim his life.

Though besieged by three opponents, Malachai Qin, despite his formidable background, found himself hard-pressed. However, after deploying his two Life-Bound Magical Treasure for protection, he summoned two more Magical Treasure to engage his foes, momentarily steadying his precarious position.

His gaze swept the battlefield, taking in the formidable strength of each of his three adversaries. A cold weight settled in his heart.

"Both Lyra Jiang and Yvonne the Violet Consort possess power greater than my own. With my current strength, escaping without paying a heavy price is nothing but a fool's dream."

"If this drags on, once my Mana [the spiritual energy used to fuel spells and techniques] is exhausted, defeat and death will be inevitable."

Within Malachai Qin's heart, thoughts flickered like lightning. He retrieved a single gilded Treasure Talisman [a powerful, single-use magical seal].

This talisman was named the Talisman of the Celestial Green Jade Blade. His father had expended immense resources to forge it, using his own Life-Bound Magical Treasure [a cultivator's personally bonded artifact] as its core. Its unleashed power rivaled a full strike from a Nascent Soul cultivator [a master who has formed their infant soul, a major realm of power].

Such a precious Treasure Talisman could easily slay a Golden Core Late Stage cultivator. Even a cultivator at Golden Core Great Perfection or the dreaded False Nascent Soul [one who has attempted the Nascent Soul breakthrough but failed, gaining partial power] would not dare face it head-on.

"Upon whom shall I unleash this blow?"

Malachai Qin's mind raced through calculations in a mere instant. The value of this Treasure Talisman was immense. His father had broken through to Nascent Soul barely over one hundred years ago; he possessed only two or three Fifth Rank Treasure [artifacts of the fifth rank, corresponding to the Nascent Soul realm] in total.

That his father had been willing to bestow this single talisman was solely because Malachai Qin had devoured a Dao Body [a rare, innate physique aligned with the Dao, granting great potential] and thus held the possibility of his own Nascent Soul breakthrough.

With only this single Demon-Subduing Treasure Talisman in hand, if it failed to shatter the deadlock with one decisive strike, he would likely perish here today.

"Eldrin Chen!"

In the span of a single breath, his decision was made.

The three opponents before him covered each other's weaknesses. Though the Treasure Talisman was mighty, the notion that it could slay Lyra Jiang or Yvonne the Violet Consort was nothing but a fool's delusion.

Instead, it was aimed at Eldrin Chen, whose cultivation was the weakest, likely intended to achieve a one-strike kill.

Acting on his thought, Malachai Qin instantly fixed his gaze on Eldrin Chen. With a flick of his hand, he activated and unleashed the Treasure Talisman.

"Not good!"

Watching as Malachai Qin activated the Treasure Talisman, a brilliant saber ray forged of celestial green jade soared into the heavens in an instant, heading straight for Eldrin Chen.

The expressions of everyone present shifted slightly. Lyra Jiang reacted instinctively, summoning forth the Divine Light of the Five Void Tribulations.

A Great Divine Ability [a supreme technique that allows one to challenge opponents of a higher cultivation realm] is a treasure for transcending realms in battle. Powered by Lyra Jiang's spiritual force, which rivaled that of a Golden Core Great Perfection cultivator, its might surpassed the full-force strike of a False Nascent Soul Cultivator by a margin, faintly reaching fifty to sixty percent of the power of a genuine Nascent Soul Cultivators's attack.

That single strike alone consumed thirty percent of the Verdant Jade Heaven-Saber's formidable energy.

Seeing the Talisman of the Celestial Green Jade Blade's power significantly diminished, Yvonne the Violet Consort on the other side suppressed the impulse to deploy her own Demon-Subduing Treasure Talisman. Instead, she brought out her trump card—the Great Divine Ability 'Violet Cosmos Heaven-Severing Sword'.

Yvonne the Violet Consort had chosen the 'Violet Cosmos Void-Traversing Mirror' as her Life-Bound Magical Treasure [a magical artifact bound to a cultivator's life force, growing in power with them] precisely because of this Great Divine Ability, the Violet Cosmos Heaven-Severing Sword.

The Violet Cosmos Heaven-Severing Sword ranks among the most supreme of Great Divine Ability. Once mastered, it grants dominance even among Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Once she breaks through to the Nascent Soul Realm [the stage where a cultivator's soul merges with their nascent life force], she can designate this Great Divine Ability [a supreme, world-altering supernatural power] as her Lifebound Divine Ability [a signature, soul-bound supernatural technique], and combine it with the Violet Cosmos Void-Traversing Mirror. Then, she would be formidable in both offense and defense, moving with absolute freedom.

At that point, even if besieged by enemies several times her strength, she would have no fear, truly able to go anywhere under heaven.

Furthermore, the Violet Cosmos Void-Traversing Mirror and the Violet Cosmos Heaven-Severing Sword [a sword technique that severs the very fabric of heaven] are of extraordinary origin. They are the treasures for her path to enlightenment, given to her by her father, Lyra Jiang. They originate from a Nascent Soul Realm cultivation art and are the legacy Magical Treasure [an enchanted artifact used by cultivators] of Violet Cosmos Dao Lord.

It can be said that this Violet Cosmos Heaven-Severing Sword is not one whit inferior to the Divine Light of the Five Void Tribulations [a cultivation art manifesting divine light to withstand tribulations]. Now, transforming into a dazzling violet sword radiance, it cleaved downwards, its very first strike consuming over thirty percent of the Verdant Jade Heaven-Saber's remaining power.

By this stage, the might of the Verdant Jade Heaven-Saber [a saber of peerless jade capable of cleaving the heavens] was largely spent, yet it still posed a mortal threat to Eldrin Chen.

Locked onto by the saber's energy, Eldrin Chen found evasion impossible. With no other choice, he could only summon the Dual Polarity Divine Thunder [a divine thunder art balancing opposing forces] once more to parry the blow.

He also activated the Earth-Fortress Sovereign Bell and the Crimson-Gold Glazed Armor, channeling the Solar True Aegis [a divine protective shield of solar essence] to guard his body, determined to block this strike with everything he had.

Seeing the danger from the other side, Lyra Jiang deemed it unwise to rely on chance. Without hesitation, she hurled forth the Green Sun Demon-Suppressing Pagoda.

The verdant jade blade-light proved its terrifying prowess. Even after having sixty to seventy percent of its power whittled away, it still sheared through the Dual Polarity Divine Thunder and, with a single slash, split the Green Sun Demon-Suppressing Pagoda clean in two.

Yet, faced with the trio's mutual support and layered defenses, the Verdant Jade Heaven-Saber's fury was finally spent. In the end, its remaining force was halted by the Solar True Aegis.

The crucial reason for this outcome was that everyone understood Malachai Qin's extraordinary status and had long been wary of him, maintaining a certain distance.

Otherwise, had he launched a sudden ambush, caught off guard, the power of this Treasure Talisman [a powerful, single-use enchanted scroll] could very likely have slain even a Golden Core Great Perfection [the pinnacle stage of the Golden Core cultivation realm] expert in a single strike.

Just as the group blocked this attack, Malachai Qin seized the moment. He consecutively unleashed several Fourth Rank High Grade Treasure Talisman [powerful, single-use enchanted scrolls], forcibly blasting open the encirclement before fleeing with frantic desperation.

"Think you can flee?"

Lyra Jiang's gaze turned icy in an instant. She immediately executed Body and Sword Unification [a movement technique where the cultivator's body and sword become one, allowing for extreme speed] and gave chase.

Seeing the Immortal Sword [a legendary, sentient sword of immense power] closing in with terrifying speed, Malachai Qin immediately activated another Divine Ability [a supreme supernatural power mastered by high-level cultivators], splitting into nine phantom figures that scattered in different directions.

"It's the Phantom Shadow Travel Escape [a supreme escape technique that creates multiple illusory duplicates],"

Yvonne the Violet Consort murmured, her expression tightening. She truly had no means to counter this particular Escape Divine Ability. Once he escaped the blockade range of the Violet Cosmos Void-Traversing Mirror [a magical treasure that seals space], he could activate a Void-Cleaving Treasure Talisman [a treasure talisman that tears through space to escape] and vanish once more.
