Chapter 742: Chapter 316: The Might of Ji Yuan!

“Buzz buzz buzz—”

Accompanied by the Spirit-Devouring Bees swarming out, the buzzing resonated throughout the entire sky.

Since the battle has already begun, Ji Yuan found no reason to run away!

Not to mention the move he initially thought was a surefire hit not only failed to kill the Hundred Insects Old Immortal but also revealed his identity as a Body Cultivator.

This made it even more impossible to flee.

If he doesn’t kill him to silence him, should the matter of being a Body Cultivator spread…

Not only the Cangluo Continent but probably even the Jiyuan Continent would hunt him relentlessly!

The path of Body Cultivation, once a dead end, had not only been navigated by him but had also reached a level that could rival a Golden Core Cultivator in the Bone Forging Realm.

And capable of Law and Body Dual Cultivation.

Which cultivator wouldn’t be tempted?

Back to the present… strange insects versus strange insects.

Standing at the summit of the mountain, Ji Yuan leaped up, landing on the Flying Boat, instantly bursting forth from the Array. With a concentration of mind, he activated the Soul Suppressing Bell in his sea of consciousness to safeguard his Divine Soul, while summoning the Fire Willow, a Top-grade Spiritual Artifact level Flying Saber.

A fiery streak rose from the ground like an arrow toward the Hundred Insects Old Immortal in the air.

“Heh heh, merely a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.”

“How can a tiny ant shake a mighty tree?”

With these words, the Hundred Insects Old Immortal lifted his right hand, pointing forward.

In an instant, Protective Golden Light appeared before him, and the flowing brilliance effortlessly blocked the Fire Willow Flying Saber.

’What?!’

Upon witnessing this scene, Ji Yuan couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

So, this is the true power of a Core Formation Cultivator?!

A casual move with Protective Golden Light could actually block his Top-grade Spiritual Artifact Flying Saber.

In hindsight, perhaps he truly was simply lucky to have killed Fire Python Zhenren earlier.

“Small path indeed.”

With a smile, the Hundred Insects Old Immortal stroked his beard, presenting a look of utter assurance against Ji Yuan.

“Then let me show you my small path as well!”

Ji Yuan said as he flipped his right hand, throwing out four black stones, positioned steadily at four corners around the Hundred Insects Old Immortal.

“Boom—”

All four Celestial Thunder Seeds exploded simultaneously.

Equivalent to a full-force strike from a Peak Foundation Establishment Cultivator, though still unable to break the Hundred Insects Old Immortal’s Protective Golden Light, it left him covered in dust and forced him to retreat dozens of feet, avoiding the fierce edge.

“You…”

Before he could speak, Ji Yuan swiftly followed with another four Celestial Thunder Seeds, erupting around him.

For a moment, the entire sky was filled with the rolling deafening sound of thunder.

“Arrogant!”

The Hundred Insects Old Immortal seemed angered, while he waved his sleeve, forming a golden shield wall before him.

Ji Yuan, upon seeing this, did not waste any more Celestial Thunder Seeds.

Instead, he raised his hand to throw the Fire Willow Flying Saber again.

“Ding—”

The saber collided fiercely with the golden shield wall, erupting countless sparks.

Accompanying this was a massive ripple of Spiritual Qi spreading.

Ji Yuan formed seals with his hands, and two Flying Sword embryos flew out from his Dantian, one left and one right, bypassing the golden shield wall and advancing toward the Hundred Insects Old Immortal from both sides.

Left Dragon Fortune, right Cloud Canyon.

“Shi—”

Having reached the Peak of Foundation Establishment, Ji Yuan fully unleashed the Flying Sword embryos, their power far surpassing previous moments.

The flying sword pierced the air, striking swiftly.

Its sharp edge revealed!

To the extent that visible cracks began to develop in Hundred Insects Old Immortal’s Protective Golden Light.

He had no choice but to divide his focus for defense, his expression growing more serious.

“What made you so fearless, turns out you do have some skill!”

The Hundred Insects Old Immortal sneered.

“In return for your courtesy, let me show you this Old Immortal’s ability too!”

After speaking, he gently stroked the black and white butterfly on his shoulder.

“Go, Butterfly.”

The Dream Butterfly flew forth.

At the same time, Ji Yuan gathered his mind, urgently activating the Sect Leader’s Seal worn on his left thumb.

Since the Hundred Insects Old Immortal chose to strike, he wouldn’t just use a single strange insect!

Indeed.

As the Dream Butterfly flapped its wings, Ji Yuan saw this old man’s Lifebound Magical Treasure.

It was a… mirror!

Its front was incredibly smooth, while the back glowed with a golden light, seemingly carved from pure gold. However, Ji Yuan couldn’t discern what was carved specifically.

He only knew that once this old demon took out the mirror, its front aimed at him, a dazzling golden light suddenly shot out.

Dual attacks descended.

Ji Yuan quickly gathered the Flying Boat while urgently crossing his arms before him, plummeting rapidly toward the ground.

Yet the Hundred Insects Old Immortal’s treasure mirror tightly followed.

Thus, in the endless night, a huge golden pillar of light pierced like Earth’s boundary.

From the sky cleaving down.

Even a distant mountain bore a terrifying crack dozens of feet deep.

“Here it comes!”

Dream Butterfly’s wind surged in, yet fortunately, Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense was incredibly strong, aided by the Soul Suppressing Bell’s protection. He merely got slightly bewildered before quickly regaining focus.

But simultaneously, the golden light hit him.

The water-blue True Dragon struck by the attack immediately swung its tail, breathing dragon breath upon the golden light.

After a brief moment of resistance between them, the golden light was extinguished by the True Dragon’s breath…

Indeed!

The highest protection the Sect Leader’s Seal could offer against a mid-stage Core Formation attack, while this Hundred Insects Old Immortal?

Merely early-stage Core Formation!

Naturally unable to break the True Dragon conjured by the Sect Leader’s Seal!

Since it couldn’t be broken, the True Dragon phantom could resist for a while longer.

Ji Yuan then leaped up, summoning the Flying Boat once again, heading towards the sky.
