The Spear light blossomed as Li Luoshui shouted, “Impudent!”
Raising her hand, she sent out a Seventh Order Open Heaven force from her jade palm, which rapidly expanded in front of Yang Kai’s eyes, filling his entire field of vision and causing the world to disappear.
Yang Kai’s body tensed up as his flesh squirmed, instinctively feeling a sense of crisis.
This was the first time he had confronted a High Rank Open Heaven head-on. Although he had witnessed several battles between High Rank Open Heaven in the past, he had not personally participated in any of them. Whether it was the Hundred Force Alliance besieging the Void Land, or the battle between Zhu Jiu Yin and the four High Rank Open Heaven outside Shadowless Cave Heaven’s entrance, he had only watched from afar.
At that time, although he could feel the power of a High Rank Open Heaven, it was not real.
It was only at this moment that he truly understood the huge gap between Mid Rank and High Rank.
Under this palm strike, Yang Kai felt like he had become an ant, unable to avoid it at all. With a loud shout, he brandished his spear, releasing the Great Unrestrained Spear Technique.
Boom! Boom! Boom! A violent sound rang out as a terrifying energy fluctuation swept out in all directions.
Yang Kai’s figure flew backwards and his face paled slightly. On the other hand, Li Luoshui stood still, her body swaying slightly.
Lowering her head to look at her palm, she saw a dark red dot spreading out from it. Although it quickly healed, in that instant of confrontation, the other party had actually managed to injure her.
This made Li Luoshui feel somewhat incredulous.
She had also broken through to the Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage, so she naturally knew how powerful a Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage could be. Originally, she had thought that killing it would be as easy as crushing ten fingers, but now things were different.
Just as Yang Kai had said before, she had only just broken through to the Seventh Order, so the strength she could display was limited. The other party’s lineup was too powerful, with seven Sixth Order, fifteen Fifth Order, and a powerful lineup. If they really joined forces, she might not be able to protect Gold Rainbow Province. She had originally planned to kill a Sixth Order opponent as an example to intimidate others, but now, not only had the other party escaped from her hands, they even had the strength to fight back!
This kind of ability was somewhat beyond her understanding. For a time, her expression became solemn.
On the other side, Yang Kai was traveling at top speed, a trace of golden blood leaking from the corner of his mouth, but he didn’t even bother to wipe it away. Instead, he simply stared at Li Luoshui and sneered, “Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage, nothing more than this!”
When the Hundred Force Alliance invaded the Void Land, other than using the power of the Nine Layers Heaven Formation to kill Kong Feng, he could only watch from the sidelines. Outside Shadowless Cave Heaven, Zhu Jiu Yin was fighting one against four, but he could only watch from the sidelines. Today, he finally had the qualifications to fight against a High Rank Open Heaven master. Although he only had this qualification, he had grown greatly and was no longer as powerless as before.
At this moment, he was extremely glad that he had not stubbornly insisted on achieving that unreachable High Rank Open Heaven directly. Sure enough, the power in his hands was the true power, and the unreachable hope was just an illusion!
Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Yang Kai pointed his spear towards Li Luoshui and coldly shouted, “Kill!”
By the time he activated his Space Law, he had already traversed several dozen kilometers, instantly appearing in front of Li Luoshui and thrusting his spear forward.
At the same time, Mao Zhe, Geng Qing, Zhou Ya, Hua Yong, his wife, and the Proprietress also attacked, sending out a series of Divine Abilities and Secret Technique towards Li Luoshui.
Seven Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage surrounded Li Luoshui like butterflies surrounding a flower, completely surrounding her.
In an instant, the Gold Rainbow Province shook and the world changed color as a terrifying shockwave spread out, causing the earth to crack and Spirit Peak to collapse.
Chang Qishui and the others had long since fled, unable to intervene in a battle of this level. Looking back, they saw figures flying around their Martial Ancestor's body, the many Divine Abilities and Secret Techniques radiating dazzling light. Under the terrifying power fluctuations, even Chang Qishui, who was a Fifth Order, felt his body tremble.
He secretly prayed in his heart that his Martial Ancestor would be able to kill all his enemies, otherwise, Gold Rainbow Province would not be safe today.
At this moment, a loud shout exploded beside Chang Qishui’s ear, “Eat this!”
Turning his head, he saw a fat man wearing an apron with a large ‘Slaughter’ character on his chest, as if he was a chef holding up a kitchen knife and slashing towards him.
Next to this fat man was a man with slanted eyes, holding an abacus in his hand. As he flew through the air, the abacus made crackling sounds and beads flew out one after another, each containing a terrifying power.
Chang Qishui’s face went pale with fright as he hurriedly went to the two Protectors.
However, the disparity in strength between the two sides was simply too great. Gold Rainbow Province only had three Fifth Order enemies, but there were a total of fifteen of them. These Fifth Order enemies didn’t dare take the risk to participate in the siege of Li Luoshui, so naturally they could only pick on the weak.
Ma Tian Yuan, Chef, and the Accountant faced off against the three Fifth Order Gold Rainbow Province masters and fought fiercely. The remaining people rushed into the depths of Gold Rainbow Prefecture and cut down anyone they saw. In an instant, Gold Rainbow Province was filled with corpses and blood, causing Chang Qishui’s eyes to fill with hatred, but he was unable to save them.
Terrifying energy erupted as Spirit Peaks collapsed one after another. Seven Sixth Order joined forces to attack a Seventh Order cultivator. The scene was extremely explosive, each and every Divine Ability released causing the void to tremble and the world to lose its light.
From time to time, someone would let out a muffled groan and fly backwards, blood spraying from his body.
Even if the seven Sixth Order cultivators joined forces, even if Li Luoshui had just broken through to the Seventh Order and her realm was unstable, the two sides could only fight evenly, and Yang Kai alone had to bear nearly half of the pressure.
This caused him to sigh with emotion. High Rank Open Heaven was indeed a High Rank existence, on a completely different level from a Mid Rank Open Heaven. Li Luoshui had only just broken through, yet she already possessed such strength. If she could completely stabilize her realm and accumulate her foundation, how much strength would she be able to display?
Back then, outside the Shadowless Cave Heaven, Zhu Jiu Yin had fought against four High Rank Open Heaven masters by herself. How strong was she?
One had to know that the four High Rank masters weren’t like Li Luoshui. No matter who it was, they had all broken through to the Seventh Order for many years, so their strength was far greater than Li Luoshui’s.
If even the Seventh Order was like this, what about the Eighth Order and Ninth Order?
Seeing that the Gold Rainbow Province disciples had suffered heavy casualties and the Sect’s foundation had been ruined, Li Luoshui’s delicate face gradually became fierce and the strength he exerted became stronger, as if he was slowly adapting to the Seventh Order.
However, even though she was already a Seventh Order, it was still extremely difficult to kill one of her opponents. The young man leading them was actually proficient in the Space Laws, and his strength was far beyond that of the other Sixth Order masters. Most of her attacks had been blocked by him, and if it weren’t for this little brat’s interference, Li Luoshui was confident she could kill all of them.
After fighting for less than an hour, almost everyone in Yang Kai’s group was injured, and Li Luoshui wasn’t any better off. Her originally sweet appearance had disappeared, her hair was disheveled, and she was drenched in sweat.
Suddenly, a cry rang out. It was Chang Qishui and the others who were not a match for the Chef, Accountant, Ma Tian Yuan, and the others. Being forced into a desperate situation, they couldn’t help shouting, “Martial Ancestor, save me!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chef’s cleaver slashed down. As the blade flashed, Chang Qishui’s head flew high into the air, his neck spurting hot blood.
The Left and Right Protectors saw that the situation was bad and wanted to flee, but how could they escape? The abacus in the Accountant’s hand weaved a large net and flew over from all directions, riddling these two with holes. Ma Tian Yuan took action at the right time and easily took their heads.
Three of the Gold Rainbow Province’s remaining Fifth Order masters had died on the spot, and the remaining Open Heaven Stage masters had almost all been wiped out. Below the Open Heaven Stage, there were countless casualties.
The entire Gold Rainbow Province was in a state of chaos, and the Spirit Province had been destroyed.
Li Luoshui gritted her teeth and shouted, “All of you must die!”
Suddenly, her delicate body shook as an invisible force spread out. Yang Kai and the others who had been flying around her were caught off guard and were all pushed away.
When he looked over again, Yang Kai’s eyes narrowed and he couldn’t help feeling a little frightened.
Because as Li Luoshui’s black hair and clothes fluttered in the wind, an invisible force seemed to surge towards Li Luoshui from all directions and pour into her petite body, causing Li Luoshui’s aura to rapidly rise!
Yang Kai was shocked. What was happening?
This woman was difficult to deal with to begin with, and even seven Sixth Order cultivators might not be able to defeat her. But now, her strength had actually increased?
The Proprietress, however, exclaimed, “Azure Void Filling the Body Great Law!”
“What the hell is that?” Yang Kai asked in surprise. From the tone of the Proprietress, he could tell that she had seen through Li Luoshui’s trick.
Before she could explain any further, the Proprietress sent out a message with her Divine Sense, which Yang Kai quickly accepted.
In the blink of an eye, Yang Kai understood what this Azure Void Filling the Body Great Law was. It was a kind of technique, strictly speaking, a forbidden technique.
Many years ago, an Eighth Order Open Heaven Stage known as Azure Void Divine Monarch had comprehended it. Using one’s body as a furnace, it was a forbidden technique that allowed one to forcefully increase one’s strength. [Hoogsway]
Every force’s headquarters contained a massive amount of resources and reserves that had been accumulated for countless years. This massive reserve was a legacy left behind by generations of Open Heaven Stage masters after they died, allowing the power of the Sect’s headquarter to become stronger and allow the younger generation to benefit.
These foundations could also be absorbed and refined.
Raising one’s strength at the Open Heaven Stage was a long and arduous process. One had to either refine the Open Heaven Pill, refine all kinds of cultivation resources, or refine the World Force of the Universe World.
Regardless of which method it was, in the end, it was all about strengthening one’s own Small Universe's World Force, allowing them to display greater strength.
The foundations of the various great Sects’ headquarters could also be absorbed and refined.
However, normally, no one would do such a thing. Firstly, doing so would weaken their family’s foundation, and secondly, it would not necessarily be compatible with their own Small Universe's strength. If there was a conflict, it might lead to some future troubles.
