Yuan's Ascension

Chapter 193: Kill! The Terrifying Wu Yuan (1)

Wu Yuan immediately turned to the light screens monitoring Bu Yu and Jin Qing. On both screens, a tree demon could be seen in the background. This meant that the two were not too far from each other. Two other Grandmasters from the Great Jin Empire followed behind Jin Qing. If Bu Yu chanced upon the group, her life would surely be in peril.

"Mm? Not good!” Wu Yuan's face drained of color and he instantly turned to the black-armored giant, "Realm Master, could you help me relocate this senior to a different position?"

On the light screen, both Bu Yu and Jin Qing suddenly increased their paces and were now sprinting at full speed. Evidently, they had detected each other's presence and Jin Qing was now chasing down Bu Yu!

"I cannot involve myself in the affairs of these martial artists. It makes no difference to me whether they live or die," the black-armored giant stated with indifference.

Wu Yuan ground his teeth. Indeed, the black-armored giant had no reason to concern himself with Bu Yu's fate.

"However," the black-armored giant continued with a subtle grin, "Following protocol, when I send you out of the Eldritch Chamber, I can teleport you to any random location within the realm."

Wu Yuan's eyes brightened.

...

The sky of the Fourth Eldritch Realm was perpetually obscured by foreboding, heavy clouds. And yet, not a single drop of rain poured down.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! At this moment, multiple figures streaked across the reddish earth. A pale green figure surged ahead at a speed surpassing the sound barrier. A formidable gust of wind followed in his trail, kicking up stones and dirt in the air.

Boom! A figure clad in black scale armor and brandishing a divine sword hurtled towards the pale green figure, its fierce momentum skimming the ground. Two figures behind him struggled to keep pace, their speed lagging far behind. Despite their desperate efforts, they continued to fall further into the distance.

Damn it! How can I be so unlucky? Just when I barely managed to obtain a Purplewood Spirit Fruit, Jin Qing showed up! Bu Yu clenched her teeth, her slightly aged features etched with subtle despair.

She was pushing herself to her limits, fleeing for her life. Yet, the armored figure behind her was quickly gaining ground, the gap between them rapidly shrinking from ten li to a mere five or six in an instant.

In terms of speed, Bu Yu could reach a speed of roughly 500 meters per second after employing her secret technique and holding nothing back. However, Jin Qing's burst speed could reach nearly 600 meters per second! After employing his secret technique, it soared to a staggering 700 meters per second. Physically, Jin Qing held a significant advantage.

Once he catches up, I can only do my best to stall for time, praying that luck favors me and I stumble upon Wu Yuan or Song Guang. Bu Yu's face flushed red from the strain of maintaining her secret techniques.

She knew that only Song Guang and Wu Yuan were strong enough to rescue her.

Or perhaps, the tree demon. Bu Yu fixed her gaze on a colossal tree that stood rooted in the earth several dozen li away, reaching a height of 100 meters. Trespassing into the tree demon’s territory offered a faint glimmer of hope for survival, but it also carried a high likelihood of a swift demise.

"Bu Yu! Prepare to meet your end." Jin Qing pushed his speed to the limit. Through his spirit battle armor, a pair of eyes brimming with excitement were revealed. This is indeed my lucky day.

Though the spoils from the Eldritch Chamber were average, Jin Qing found the past two days to be quite fruitful. Not only had he acquired numerous spirit fruits, but he had also succeeded in slaying Chang Dong. And now, he had encountered Bu Yu.

Chu Ping is dead, as is Chang Dong. Once I eliminate Bu Yu, there will be nothing left to obstruct Great Jin's conquest of the entire Jiang Continent. Jin Qing was completely confident in himself.

As a former north king of Great Jin, he was well-versed in the empire's plans. This time, he had deliberately brought his spirit armor into the Chu-Jiang Immortal Realm with one main objective — to eliminate as many Grandmasters of the Jiang Continent as possible.

It would have been somewhat troublesome to kill a Great Grandmaster like Bu Yu without the spirit battle armor. But with it? It will require no more than twenty moves! Jin Qing's eyes turned icy cold.

His physical constitution had improved, but not significantly. The reason why he could act so arrogantly, despite facing restrictions on his power in the Fourth Eldritch Realm, was because of his spirit battle armor. The spirit armor crafted by qi refiners was basically a cheat item for martial artists.

Jin Qing pursued Bu Yu relentlessly over the wide desert and yawning canyons. In just a few moments, the distance between them shrank to 1 li. One could say that Jin Qing would catch up to Bu Yu in just one more breath.

Hmm, so you’re planning to seek refuge behind a tree demon. Jin Qing's gaze turned frigid as he saw through Bu Yu's plan. Hmph! I’ll just slay both of you.

While other Grandmaster experts were fearful of the tree demons, Jin Qing remained undaunted.

I have fled this far, but I’ve yet to see Wu Yuan or Song Guang for the last two days. Despair began to creep into Bu Yu's heart. Is this where I meet my end?

She was unwilling to resign herself to such a fate. Wu Yuan and The Sword Hierarch had achieved breakthroughs consecutively. She even managed to acquire the Purplewood Spirit Fruit, and the Heavenly Rankings were now within sight. She finally saw hope for the future. How could it all end here?

Suddenly, amidst her despair, Bu Yu felt a fluctuation in the air. Her gaze darted to the side, where an earthy-yellow figure was hurtling towards her at an astonishing speed, kicking up a cloud of faint red dust.

Even from a distance, Bu Yu could see his face clearly. Wu Yuan? Her heart surged with joy.

She had nearly lost all hope, resigning herself to a desperate last resistance. However, Wu Yuan had finally arrived. With her sharp vision, she could see that Wu Yuan was clad in earthy-yellow battle armor, revealing only his eyes. It immediately reminded her of Jin Qing and Song Guang's spirit battle armor.

Spirit battle armor? Did Wu Yuan acquire spirit battle armor from that Eldritch Chamber? Bu Yu's heart swelled with elation, and her worries instantly vanished.

"Shadow Blade!!"Jin Qing, who had been doggedly chasing after Bu Yu, glared at the incoming Wu Yuan intensely. He too had noticed the spirit battle armor, but didn't back down. After exchanging blows with Wu Yuan previously, he knew that Wu Yuan had a higher martial skill level than him, but he had a stronger physical constitution.

And if my guess is right, Shadow Blade collected numerous treasures from the Eldritch Chamber other than the spirit battle armor. If I kill Wu Yuan, they will all be mine. Greed arose in Jin Qing's heart.

He was fully aware that it would be challenging to defeat Wu Yuan, who was now equipped with the spirit battle armor. However, how could he leave without at least trying?

It's Shadow Blade!

He's here? When did he acquire spirit battle armor? Zhong Jun and Dong Jiu who were hurrying over were startled.

"Hmm? Grand Elder is about to confront him, but the Shadow Blade isn’t slowing down at all."

"Are they going to fight to the death?" The two Land Rankers slowed down. They weren't too concerned. In their view, although Shadow Blade could potentially rival Jin Qing now that he also wore spirit battle armor, defeating him was absolutely impossible. A single punch from Jin Qing contained a force of 290,000 catties!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Though Wu Yuan and Bu Yu were rapidly approaching each other, Bu Yu dared not slow down with Jin Qing only a few hundred meters behind her. Wu Yuan also maintained his speed.

Bu Yu opened her mouth to caution him, but before she could speak, Wu Yuan's voice resounded directly in her mind. "Hierarch, leave Jin Qing to me. You focus on Zhong Jun and Dong Jiu."

One ability of Soul Force was telepathic communication. Wu Yuan had to hide his power previously, but with his growing strength, there was no longer a need to conceal some abilities.

Soul Force telepathy? Bu Yu's eyes widened with astonishment. She understood the implications of this ability, but there was no time to think further.

The earth shook as Wu Yuan brushed past Bu Yu, his head enveloped in a protective layer of earthy-yellow scales. He seemed to transform into an earth spirit, his presence commanding and vast. A fiery red saber materialized in his hand.

“Die!” Without hesitation, Jin Qing swung his divine sword ferociously, his gaze locked on the approaching Wu Yuan. One wielded a saber, the embodiment of an indomitable earth spirit. The other wielded a sword, evoking the image of a black-armored war deity. The saber's blade rays blazed like a stream of fire, while the sword lights danced with elusive precision, capable of cutting through any obstacle.

With a thunderous impact, their weapons collided, unleashing a shockwave that rippled in all directions. Dust and debris filled the air as the ground quivered beneath their feet. Amidst the settling dust and smoke, a figure was propelled backward like a projectile. It was Jin Qing.

Swift as lightning, the earthy yellow figure closed the distance, catching up to Jin Qing in an instant. The saber cleaved down with unyielding brutality.
