Chapter 781: Closing the Distance

onless, and he coldly said, "Your guts are getting bigger and bigger!"With a thud, Xuan Yuan Xing knelt directly before Gu Bulao and said, "Disciple knows his mistake.""Hmph, what use is knowing you'r...At this point, Hou Muran didn't say anything more. He directly handed a piece of formation stone to Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun grasped the formation stone and said to Hou, "Brother Hou, although your method is good, for safety's sake, regardless of success or failure, when I go out, you should still find a chance to leave. If I am lucky enough to succeed, then we will meet again at the Nine-Layered Blood Tower!"

This method was extremely risky, with a high probability of failure. Even if successful, Gingercloud worried that Hou Muran's illusionary array wouldn't be able to hold Yueqing for three days. Therefore, they decided to separate, avoiding any burden on Hou Muran.

Hou Muran understood Jiang Yun's meaning and nodded, saying, "Good!"

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar that echoed across the world, the area within ten thousand miles centered on this formation cracked and crumbled. The ground itself was shattered like it had been trampled by some monstrous beast.

On the thousands of loose stones that made up the formation, countless cracks appeared, trembling madly.

The formation is about to be broken!

A resolute expression appeared in Jiangyun's eyes. He held a formation stone in one hand, while his other hand swiftly formed several hand seals and heavily struck them into the sky.

Suddenly, a surging, ocean-like power descended from the sky, enveloping Jiang Yun's body in an instant. His clothes and hair fluttered wildly as if in a gale.

Especially his hair, which turned red at a visible rate, while the vitality in his body was rapidly draining away.

The fading of vitality was exchanged for a frenzied surge in the aura emanating from him.

Three in One, Seven Emotions' Wrath, Four Sacrifices to Heaven!

To withstand Yue Qing's attack and trap him in an illusion, Jiang Yun pushed his strength to its absolute limit!

Since Jiang Yun cultivated to the fifth level of Dao Ling and nurtured a Ghost Qi Dao Ling, breaking the shackles of his soul and feeling the existence of his soul, his life fire and vitality became even stronger. This allowed him to use vitality as a sacrifice to complete four sacrifices to heaven.

Feeling the change in Ginger Cloud's breath, a look of astonishment appeared in Hou Muran's eyes.

Although Jiang Yun's displayed cultivation realm was only at the Dao Spirit Fifth Stage, Hou Muran knew that Jiang Yun's true strength was definitely far more than that.

And now it has proven his guess. At this moment, the aura on Jiang Yun's body is so strong, and his cultivation level is almost equal to what he had before being suppressed, reaching the early stage of the Tianyou Realm!

Ginger Cloud's face was devoid of any expression. Only the influence of seven emotions, anger in particular, caused his blood-red eyes to burn like raging flames.

Turning his head, Jiang Yun clasped his fist towards Hou Muran and said, "Hou brother, farewell!"

As soon as his words fell, Jiang Yun's figure flashed and he charged directly out of the formation. He still needed to hold back Yue Qing first, giving Hou Muran a chance to escape.

"Boom!"

Just as Jiang Yun stepped out of the formation, all the loose stones within the formation finally collapsed completely, turning into dust.

"You're finally out!"

Before Yue Qing's eyes, a frost covered his face, and his eyes glinted with cold light as he stared coldly at Jiang Yun.

Although Yue Qing's expression seemed calm, his heart was actually quite shaken. This was naturally because of the strength Jiang Yun displayed at this moment, which was comparable to that of a cultivator in the early stage of the Heavenly Blessing Realm.

Even though he knew that Jiang Yun had used a secret technique, he could still clearly discern that Jiang Yun's strength had increased tremendously compared to four years ago.

Four years ago, when he met Jiang Yun, Jiang Yun had just entered the Dao Ling Realm.

If he knew that in four years, Jiang Yun had actually risen to four levels on the foundation of the Dao Ling Realm, he would probably be shocked.

Any extraordinary being, upon reaching the Dao Spirit Realm and stepping through the gate of seeking truth, will find that their cultivation advancement requires time for precipitation and accumulation.

It's rare for anyone to be promoted four times in a row, even over forty years.

"Yue Qing!"

Jiang Yun, looking at Yue Qing who was three zhang away from him, coldly shouted his name as he moved, and rushed towards the other party.

Just as with Yue Qing, Jiang Yun harbors an immense hatred for him. This hatred stems from the fall of Hai Changsheng.

Now he was even more certain that instead of waiting for Yue Qing to attack him, he should take the initiative and attack first, closing the distance between them.

Just as Jiang Yun rushed out, Hou Muran's figure also appeared behind him. He gritted his teeth and dashed in another direction.

Although he really wanted to stay and help Gingercloud, he knew that staying would only make him a burden.

Yue Qing's shock gradually subsided, though Jiang Yun's strength improvement surprised him greatly, it was still impossible to be his opponent.

As for that runaway Hou Muran, he was completely disregarded, and not even bothered to be pursued.

A cold snort escaped Yue Qing's lips as he raised his hand, a casual flick of his wrist sending the distance between him and Jiang Yun, which had previously been a mere three zhang, soaring in an instant.

It was like an invisible hand stretching the space, making it longer and longer. Even though Jiang Yun moved at incredible speed, he could never close the distance.

As Jiang Yun had guessed, Yue Qing was well-prepared for the several major trump cards on Jiang Yun's body.

...especially the eerie nature of the Soul-Binding Incense, which kept him from letting Jiang Yun near him.

As the distance between them widened, Yue Qing raised his hand again and punched at the void.

Click, click, click!

A series of cracking sounds erupted as the already stretched space, under Yue Qing's punch, abruptly tore apart, revealing countless black fissures of varying sizes, winding like slender snakes.

What's even more bizarre is that within these black fissures, there are glistening white ice crystals. This causes the fissures to freeze and be unable to heal, continuously spreading towards Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun's body, which was charging forward, felt an immense resistance the moment these cracks appeared.

If he didn't possess the strength comparable to the early stage of the Heaven's Blessing Realm right now, this resistance alone would have prevented him from moving.

Even so, his speed had to be reduced.

Gazing at the growing distance between himself and Yue Qing, Jiang Yun gritted his teeth and reached out with a finger, slashing it down.

Taoism, love parting and suffering!

With a single finger, he re-established the distance between Gingercloud and Snowpeak to three zhang.

Immediately following, the five Dao spirits within Jiang Yun's body and his nine great heavenly cavities all whirred into frantic operation. Every ounce of power within his body was unleashed without reservation as he surged forward with all his might.

With this dash, Ginger Cloud unexpectedly surged forward a full ten feet, leaving only a distance of two zhang between him and Yue Qing.

According to Hou Muran, as long as the distance between the two reaches one zhang, he can crush the formation stone!

Looking at Ginger Cloud who was getting closer to him, Yue Qing's face remained cold as he pointed out with a single finger.

"Bang!"

Yue Qing's finger landed on Jiang Yun's body, causing Jiang Yun's body to violently tremble and spew a mouthful of blood.

But his body did not retreat, instead advancing further, taking another step forward.

"Bang!"

With another step, a dull thud echoed as he stomped the earth, leaving several cracks in its surface. The distance between him and Yue Qing was now reduced to just half a zhang.

At this moment, Jiang Yun felt as if he had returned to the bridge of Inverted Demons. Back then, he too had faced immense pressure and had to cross the bridge of Inverted Demons.

"It seems you really want to be close to me!"

For Yue Qing, it was impossible not to see through Jiang Yun's intentions with his actions of approaching her even while injured.

A mocking smile appeared on Yue Qing's face. "Jiang Yun, do you still want to use your incense to bind my soul Do you still want to use your whip to scatter my spiritual energy"

"Do you think I'll give you another chance!"

First released on Traditional Chinese Novel Networkment, within this jade slip, he actually saw several familiar names, and saw medicinal herbs that he thought had already disappeared and become extinct!Sixteen years of memories allowed Jiang Yun to b...
