First Immortal of the Sword

Chapter 2084 – The Secrets of the Hidden Realm

Su Yi shifted through the air, shooting toward the massive star in the distance.

Bo Yun instantly realized what Su Yi was trying to do. He bellowed, “Hurry up and stop him!”

“Hah!” Buddhist Master Yun Zhen didn’t need the reminder. He blocked Su Yi’s path and attacked with all his might.

Boom!

His hands formed seals, and the golden lotus platform beneath his feet transformed into a boundless world bursting with intense radiance. The golden light enveloped him, making him seem invincible and indestructible.

The Western Paradise Spirit Mountains’ secret legacy——A Buddhist World in a Lotus Platform!

Su Yi didn’t even look at it, nor did he pause. He was like the unstoppable blade of a sword, piercing straight ahead.

Bang!!

A hole ripped open in that boundless world. It then split and scattered in a rain of golden light.

Buddhist Master Yun Zhen’s eyes widened. His hands froze mid-seal. Then, his body broke into countless chunks and scattered into ash.

Su Yi’s attack was far too tyrannical. It broke the Buddhist World in a Lotus Platform in a single strike and obliterated the seemingly invincible Mid-Rank God Buddhist Master Yun Zhen, too!

The nearby gods looked on in horror. Many of them panicked. They could only watch helplessly as Su Yi shot toward the hidden realm. But then——

An eye-piercing purple sun descended through the void.

Bang!!

Su Yi was forced backward, blood gushing from his lips.

Upon closer inspection, that “purple sun” was actually an old-fashioned and mysterious Daoist seal.

Ren Beiyou had attacked! This Greater God of the Three Purities Daoist Court had yet to even reach them when he attacked from afar, intercepting and injuring Su Yi.

“Stop right there!”

Before Su Yi could respond, Ren Beiyou attacked once more. That purple Daoist seal erupted with misty purple light, manifesting a churning, electric power of the natural order that descended ruthlessly upon Su Yi. That destructive power split the nearby void!

Meanwhile, the other Greater Gods rushed over and seized the opportunity to attack Su Yi. Each was quicker than the one before.

It would have been obvious to anyone that things didn’t bode well for Su Yi now that he’d been trapped.

Naturally, Su Yi was aware of his predicament, too. He didn’t hesitate to draw on the Sword of the Nine Hells.

Boom!!!

A streak of sword qi swept forward, blanketing the void and manifesting a world of reincarnation. Countless unbelievable and strange phenomena manifested within it. That terrifying sword force crushed the purple lightning filling the surrounding void.

Su Yi then leaped through the pelting rain of light like a fish leaping out of the fisherman’s basket before shooting straight toward that massive star covered in fire. In the blink of an eye, he’d vanished completely. More than ten greater gods had surrounded him, but now, their attacks hit nothing but air!

When the dust and smoke settled, the incomparably unsightly faces of the Greater Gods came into view.

“Dammit!!” someone roared, his voice booming like thunder. He couldn’t have been any more frustrated. They’d come so close, only for their prey to slip away.

Boom!

Bo Yun was unwilling to accept this. He attacked with all his might, waving his fly whisk at the distant star. But his attack was as ineffectual as a clay ox melting into the ocean. The fire covering the star neutralized it, and soon, no trace of it remained.

“Don’t waste your strength. The hidden realms of the Deification Star Sea are covered in the Laws of the Path of the Ancient Gods. Not even Master Gods can break them,” sighed Wei Xiao of the Nine Profundities Yao Court. He looked deeply unwilling to accept his.

“We sealed the area off completely. How did Su Yi manage to get here, anyway?” someone asked with a frown.

“Why discuss that now? It’s too late. I’m just worried about the divine children’s safety!” said Ren Beiyou. He was fraught with worry, and his expression was deeply unsightly.

The others’ hearts thudded in their chests. All of them looked stricken.

Every camp here had only just sent its divine child into the hidden realm. Now, Su Yi had gone in too. How could he possibly spare the divine children’s lives? The mere thought of the consequences of that made the Greater Gods gasp. They realized that this didn’t bode well.

Every last divine child was the greatest, most unparalleled figure of their faction’s younger generation, and their sects and clans had spent an enormous amount of effort and resources training them. Every faction had high hopes for its divine child.

Some of the divine children had backgrounds and statuses far beyond ordinary gods!

If anything happened to them, it would be an absolutely devastating loss, to the point that the Greater Gods wouldn’t be able to return and report back to their sects! ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

“You people are worthless! We told you to watch over this place and maintain a close eye on the periphery, only for Su Yi to sneak right in! If anything happens to the divine children, I’ll hold you accountable!” Wen Xiao roared, his voice seething with murderous intent.

Bo Yun said with displeasure, “Wen Xiao, as we all saw earlier, it was members of your Nine Profundities Yao Court who brought Su Yi here in the first place!”

Wen Xiao froze, completely gobsmacked.

Before long, he understood that Su Yi had taken on Niu Huang’s appearance and followed Ol’ Gui here. He was instantly so furious that steam billowed from the seven apertures of his face, and he barely resisted the urge to slap Ol’ Gui to death!

“Anger won’t solve the problem. All we can do now is deal the place off, get ready, and wait.” Ren Beiyou took a deep breath, his eyes glinting with cold light. “When Su Yi comes out, we’ll attack immediately!”

His voice boomed throughout the area. The gods’ expressions shifted erratically, but they knew that this was the only option left to them.

“What if Buddhist Son Lian Sheng went into the hidden realm after Su Yi? Do you think he could handle him?” someone asked suddenly.

Lian Sheng!

A natural-born Buddhist son, one of just a handful of Heaven’s Chosen in the God Domain. Although he’d yet to achieve divinity, he had the heaven-defying power to strike fear into the hearts of even Lesser Gods.

“Lian Sheng? Hmph! Can he fight Mid-Rank Gods?” Bo Yun laughed coldly. “And could he have blocked the full-force attack of a Greater God like me?”

The crowd instantly fell silent. Lian Sheng was indeed a legend among Buddhist cultivators and a peerless genius of the God Domain, but compared to Su Yi, he ultimately still fell short.

This was an unquestionable fact!

“Quit harboring such unrealistic notions. From this moment forth, we old-timers must stand guard here ourselves. We cannot permit even the slightest negligence!” Ren Beiyou said icily. “No matter what, we can’t let that heretic escape again!!”

……

Within the hidden realm.

Hah~! Su Yi let out a long breath.

Breaking out of that encirclement might have looked dangerous, but to Su Yi, it was nothing at all. However, this battle made him increasingly aware that even though he’d reached the Hidden Summit Realm, he had little hope of victory in a direct confrontation with a Greater God. Even the Sword of the Nine Hells could at most help him escape. Actually killing a Greater God was practically impossible.

But Su Yi didn’t lose heart. After all, prior to stepping into the Hidden Summit Realm, he couldn’t have defended himself against a Greater God at all! His combat strength had improved considerably already!

Moreover, the Hidden Summit Realm still had numerous secrets left to explore. He was still just in the early stages, and he had an enormous amount of room to improve!

First, I’ve got to find a place to treat my wounds. While I’m at it, I’ll see if this hidden realm hides the good fortune I’m after.

As Su Yi pondered, he continued ahead.

Heaven and earth were boundlessly vast and spacious. Fragmented stars hung beneath the sky, and blood-red clouds floated in the air. Dense death qi permeated the atmosphere. As enormous as this place was, there wasn’t even the barest hint of life. Everything was bleak and oppressive.

Su Yi walked with his hands behind his back, spreading his divine sense and taking in the hidden realm’s energy fluctuations. Before long, he realized something.

The Laws that manifested this world are a wondrous power of the Grand Dao comparable to a first-level Epoch Fragment. This place isn’t well suited for cultivation, but it hides an opportunity to achieve divinity just waiting for someone to find and seize it! As for this hidden realm’s dangers, they originate from the death qi in the air. This place is likely inhabited by the undead!

……Su Yi recalled several rumors regarding the Deification Star Sea. This vast stretch of stars was home to numerous similar hidden realms both great and small. Each of these hidden realms was, in truth, the manifestation of a dead god’s body and soul!

The dead god’s body transformed into a hidden realm’s heaven and earth, manifesting its mountains, rivers, lakes, oceans, and everything else in it. The dead god’s soul transformed into the strange and contorted undead that populated the hidden realm. And the dead god’s power of the Grand Dao became the hidden realm’s Laws of the Natural Order!

In other words, entering such a hidden realm was like exploring a god’s corpse. The mere thought of it was unbelievable. But it was all true. And the opportunities to achieve divinity within these hidden realms were due to the Godheads the gods had left behind!

When gods died in the outside world, barring extreme circumstances, their bodies and souls were simply destroyed. Only their Godheads remained. But here in the Deification Star Sea, fallen gods’ bodies, souls, powers of the Grand Dao, and Godheads manifested a hidden realm, like a radiant star floating amidst the void.

When outsiders explored such hidden realms, they did so in search of the fallen gods’ Godheads.

The Laws of this hidden realm are comparable to those of a first-level Epoch Fragment. That means that a long time ago, a god in possession of a first-level Epoch Law perished here, thought Su Yi. I wonder how strong that god was in life…

Kaboom!

Death qi churned in the distance, and over a dozen illusory, strange figures shot toward him. They were completely identical; all of them were white-haired men in gray robes, and all of them had an otherworldly air about them. But their bodies were swathed in dense death qi, and it was obvious at a glance that they weren’t living men. These were undead!

These manifestations of the dead god’s soul wandered the Hidden Realm. They were extremely strange and dangerous.

“Die!” The undead charged explosively at Su Yi.

But Su Yi didn’t even look at them. He just waved his sleeves through the air. Sword qi swept forth, creating overlapping visions of reincarnation. In the blink of an eye, the undead popped like soap bubbles, destroyed completely.

These undead are, ultimately, just fragments of a long-dead god’s soul. They’re strong, but they can at best threaten Great Profound Stage cultivators, and they’re completely helpless against the power of reincarnation, thought Su Yi. The power of reincarnation was the perfect counter to the undead, as they weren’t supposed to exist in this world in the first place.

A moment later, Su Yi noticed that resplendent crystals had fallen where the undead had been destroyed. He walked over and picked them up, but when he examined them, his expression instantly grew strange.
