Chapter 445: Sweeping Away

:

The world fell into a deathly stillness. Whether it was the faction of Great Xia or that of Great Yu, everyone was utterly awed by this single finger of the Immortal Fairy.

Anyone could see that when Wu Youdao unleashed his Universe in the Palm just now, he had staked his very life, employing a bottom-of-the-chest technique, a devastating ultimate move.

Yet this move had actually been neutralized by the other party with such nonchalant ease, and even the rules binding Hanshui City had been punctured.

To what terrifying degree had the opponent’s mastery over power, spells, and rules reached?!

When lower-realm cultivators acquired higher-realm power, they were often limited by factors such as their thinking and vision, and thus frequently failed to exert the power a higher realm ought to possess; moreover, the power of national destiny was a celestial method, so even Tribulation Transcendence cultivators found it difficult to comprehend its utilization, which was precisely the reason why Governor Lu had remained in a passive state throughout the battle.

The Immortal Fairy, by contrast, had fought against peers of the same realm multiple times back during her own Tribulation Transcendence stage, and was so familiar with the power that stage ought to have that she could not be more acquainted with it; after she attained immortality, her vision rose by yet another level, allowing her to guide even the battles of Tribulation Transcendence cultivators.

There was no one under heaven who could better bring out the advantages of the power of national destiny than she.

"Are you alright?" Venerable Shaman stepped forward to treat Wu Youdao’s wounds, handing him an extremely precious half-immortal grade grand elixir—a medicine that not only demanded a high cultivation level from its refiner but also required materials that were incredibly difficult to find, such that once one pill was successfully refined, there was no telling when the next might be.

With a powerful enemy before them, they could no longer care about so much.

Wu Youdao was the key to Great Yu’s restoration; in the Grand Preceptor's plan, Wu Youdao was to ascend the throne after Great Yu was restored, so he absolutely could not perish here.

The half-immortal grade grand elixir was highly effective; after consuming one pill, the impact caused by the backlash of the rules was no longer a major issue, and the pierced palm was also slowly healing, though the speed of recovery was far lower than anticipated, a sign that the Immortal Fairy’s technique was still taking effect. xsiqu.a

"Attack together!" Wu Youdao had to admit that the opponent was not an adversary he could defeat alone.

"No one hold back anymore! The commotion here is too great; we must decide this quickly before the other powerhouses of Great Xia arrive!"

The power of national destiny was right before his eyes; Wu Youdao would seize it no matter what!

To return empty-handed would make the losses of this venture far too severe.

Reasonably speaking, a battle between Tribulation Transcendence cultivators was a contest of their degree of mastery over rules, but the three of them had already realized that the opponent was very likely a true immortal.

To play with rules in front of an immortal was to court death without even knowing how one died!

It was better to fight with spells!

Venerable Blue Thunder and Venerable Shaman both realized a powerful enemy stood before them, so they bypassed the stage of minor skirmishes and testing probes entirely, bringing out their trump cards right from the start.

"Magnificent heavenly thunder, heed my command!"

Venerable Blue Thunder held 'Thunder' as his honorific title; what he excelled in was precisely the law of thunder!

In an instant, the vault of heaven seemed to collapse as silver serpents danced wildly, looking like countless flood dragons undergoing transformation into true dragons, galloping through the air.

The colossal sound shook Hanshui City; had it not been for the protection of the formation, everyone's eardrums would have been shattered!

The rules had just been broken, and those outside the city, ignorant of what had occurred, merely saw a shroud of dark light above Hanshui City with lightning pouring down like rain, causing their legs to tremble so hard they could not even stand, slumping helplessly onto the ground.

The might of the thunder was not a single bit inferior to the tribulation lightning from moments ago, and was perhaps even stronger!

After all, a tribulation lightning offered a slim chance of survival, whereas Venerable Blue Thunder’s technique left not the slightest room for maneuvering—it was a path of absolute death!

The lightning intertwined, transforming into layers of cages that trapped the Immortal Fairy within.

The cages constricted the space; one could well imagine what kind of lightning strike the person inside would suffer when the cage shrank to its absolute limit!

Faced with all this, the Immortal Fairy remained unmoved, speaking softly in a voice that only the three from Great Yu could hear.

"The world's tribulations originated from the Heavenly-Accord Immortal's Tribulation Fruit, and most tribulations are thunder tribulations; even the Heavenly-Accord Immortal does not dare attack this immortal with thunder laws, so how could your clumsy imitation possibly succeed?"

Venerable Blue Thunder's pupils constricted slightly as a look of sheer astonishment filled his face; the Immortal Fairy's words revealed many ancient secrets!

A proud smile appeared at the corner of the Immortal Fairy's mouth, but unfortunately, shrouded under the power of national destiny, no one could see her features clearly, let alone her expression.

She extended her slender, scallion-white index finger, pointed it toward the sky, and her lips moved slightly as she uttered a few words; the terrifying thunder cage vanished cleanly in an instant, and the sky turned clear as though nothing had ever happened.

Only Venerable Blue Thunder, being the closest, heard clearly what she said, and he could not help but tremble.

What she said was: Decree, disperse.

A decree was an order from a superior to an inferior; to make his proudest attack—an imitation of a thunder tribulation—dissipate by relying solely on these simple words could only prove one thing—

Her status was above the thunder tribulation, and the thunder tribulation dared not attack her!

How could this be possible!

Venerable Blue Thunder had never heard of such a thing, yet now, this was the only explanation!

Fear arose from the bottom of his heart; the opponent was his natural enemy!

"Sacrifice My Fist!" Venerable Shaman strode forward, his steps creating ripples in the air as he executed his fist technique.

This was his strongest move, and the source of his honorific title.

Venerable Shaman’s fist technique was incomparably overbearing; golden light pierced out and divine radiance blinded the eyes, while a grayish mist appeared behind him—this was the corpse qi he had accumulated, all of which became nourishment for the Sacrifice My Fist.

"Fairy Fist Technique."

The Immortal Fairy swung her tender pink fist, which looked soft and gentle but in truth contained the ultimate principles of the Great Dao, boundless in its mystery.

The Fairy Fist Technique was a masterpiece forged from the melting together of tens of thousands of fist styles such as the Luo Han Guo Fist, the Forsythia Fist, and the Tianshan Sun Fist; among these tens of thousands of styles, there was no shortage of fists that dispelled corpse qi, such as the heat-clearing and detoxifying Luo Han Guo Fist and Forsythia Fist.

In front of the Fairy Fist Technique, the corpse qi dissipated automatically, leaving the Sacrifice My Fist without nourishment like floating duckweed without roots, its power reduced almost to nothing.

Venerable Shaman was dumbfounded; ever since he learned this fist technique, he had never encountered such a situation, and before he could react, the Fairy Fist Technique came crashing right toward his face.

The pink fist struck Venerable Shaman’s face with a pattering barrage, beating him black and blue.

"Great Luo Triple Strength!"

"Blue Thunder Body Tempering!"

"Sacrifice Earth Fist!"

The three from Great Yu joined forces to attack, their spells shocking the heavens with a grand momentum like the end of the world; the Immortal Fairy transformed into a celestial being of martial arts, fighting three at once, capturing dragons and seizing tigers, ignoring thunder laws, her fist technique invincible as she swept through everything with heaven-defying combat power, beating the three into steady retreat and complete collapse.

For the absolute top geniuses, the world's highest praise was merely that they possessed the potential to become an immortal.

But the Immortal Fairy was a true immortal, so even this highest praise was a degradation to her.

The Immortal Fairy fought with effortless ease, capable of neutralizing any attack.

The uninherited spells mastered by Wu Youdao and his companions were things the Immortal Fairy had already seen back in the ancient era, making them incredibly easy for her to deal with.

Whatever moves the enemies knew, she knew as well and was even stronger at them; whatever moves the enemies did not know, she knew those too.

The Immortal Fairy shook her head; if these three were placed in the ancient era, they wouldn't even have the qualifications to contend for immortality—they were simply too weak.

Without the qualifications to contend for immortality, they naturally lacked the qualifications to be her opponents.

Boom—

The three were blasted away by a single punch from the Immortal Fairy, flying across half of Hanshui City and embedding themselves into the Corpse Mountain Range of the Corpse Driving Sect.

"None of them are any good; they are far worse than the Heavenly-Accord Immortal and the others."

A hilarious magic academy style, just like this book it is also a light comedy; the protagonist has an eccentric mind and clear logic, using all kinds of bizarre methods to solve problems, packed with dense memes and punchlines.
