CHAPTER 817: CHAPTER 412: ZHOU KUANGTIAN, DIE!

The wildly violent water vein Spiritual Qi continuously compressed the surrounding space.

Zhou Kuangtian stood atop the myriad waters, with every breath he drew, the Spiritual Light on his body grew denser.

When the Spiritual Qi reached its limit, Zhou Kuangtian waved his hand slowly, and ripples appeared within the water light.

With every circle Zhou Kuangtian drew, his skin wrinkled a bit more.

After drawing only ten circles, Zhou Kuangtian’s body had reverted to that of a shriveled man in his eighties or nineties.

However, Zhou Kuangtian’s expression showed no change, but rather a hint of pride.

"Lin Beichen, you killed my disciple and hindered my cultivation. If you do not die today, I will find no peace in eating or sleeping."

The hatred for harming his disciple and impeding his path of cultivation.

These two great hatreds intertwined in his heart, making him wish to skin Lin Beichen alive.

The Sealing Nine Dragons Technique that the master taught him relied on the mountain and river terrain to enhance oneself.

Using this method, even if the opponent’s strength surpassed him tenfold, they could not withstand the power of the earth veins.

He was already exhausted but still forced his body, using the last bit of his strength, aimed the last bit of energy at Lin Beichen, and drew a talisman in mid-air.

The talisman seemed to have tracking abilities; as soon as it appeared, it immediately locked onto Lin Beichen.

The myriad waters instantly surged toward Lin Beichen.

Ten halos, each containing extreme power.

This energy was compressed to the limit; one halo had the power of a mountain.

To rely on human power, it was impossible to resist this force.

Yet as he was thinking this, he witnessed the most shocking scene of his life.

A green Spiritual Light shot straight into the sky, tearing through the thick clouds like a peerless Divine Sword in an instant.

Sunlight poured from the sky.

A myriad of rays fell on Jiulong Mountain’s water vein Spiritual Qi.

Amidst the dense clouds and fog appeared a silhouette.

This silhouette resembled an elf, filled with clear and radiant Spiritual Qi.

Although the other person made no movement, the Spiritual Qi on their body was incomparably pure, compared to Zhou Kuangtian’s filthy mortal energy; the other was a true deity.

In just a moment, Zhou Kuangtian felt a sense of inferiority.

This body was simply too perfect, as if crafted from the essence of the sun and moon, with nothing earthly able to leave even the slightest trace upon it.

"Break!"

Atop Jiulong Mountain, it was as if a terrifying power akin to a nuclear explosion had erupted.

Immense terrifying white cloud waves directly dispelled all the dark clouds in the sky, forming a funnel-shaped clear area.

Countless water lights, before even touching the ground, were completely evaporated, rising back into the cloud layer.

Centrally from Jiulong Mountain peak, spreading outward for a dozen kilometers, all the large trees swayed violently like waves.

The roots were pulled from the ground, vegetation snapped instantly, stones flew, and dust and fog filled the air, yet in an instant were pressed back down immovably by an immense force.

The peak of Jiulong Mountain should have, with the roar, produced an earth-shaking boom, yet within an instant, it became extremely quiet.

Everyone stared blankly at the mountain top area, eyes filled with confusion.

The sight before them told them that an explosion had definitely occurred on the mountain, but no sound reached their ears.

"Strange, why is there no explosion sound on the mountain?"

"Is Jiulong Mountain still under development? Why is there still large-scale construction, moreover using explosives for the mountain, the environmental damage must be immense?"

"You security guards, someone is secretly using explosives to blast the mountain, why aren’t you checking it out?"

The citizens stood at the foot of the mountain, accusingly, their expressions exceptionally angry.

Today’s Jiulong Mountain was simply bizarre.

First, the sky was filled with dark clouds, then an explosion followed, and now the ground nearly shook.

In the old times, people would have thought an anomaly was occurring here.

Most people just muttered a few complaints and then gave up.

To them, whatever happened on Jiulong Mountain had nothing to do with them.

The few places regular people could visit were only Dragon-Slaying Platform and Jiulong Pool, and the path up Jiulong Mountain had long been sealed.

For years, regular citizens could only tour the mountain’s foot, as the mountain areas were contracted out to major families.

Due to years of brainwashing, capital did whatever it wanted in this place, and the citizens had long embraced the privileges of capital.

But for today, ordinary people were just there for the spectacle, and the major families were no exception; the true insiders were only the cultivators.

Yet these people were unlucky.

Ordinary people kept a very safe distance from the mountain top, unaffected by the explosion, but the cultivators, confident in their abilities, deliberately stayed too close.

When the explosion happened, they couldn’t retreat in time, battered by the explosion’s shockwave and terrifying Spiritual Qi, the weaker ones coughing blood and fainting, the stronger ones not spared from being wounded.

Who is truly more powerful at the mountain top?

The reportedly number one from the mainland, said to be of Mystic Sect cultivation, not only slew Qin Wenwu but also stirred up chaos in the underworld.

Yet Zhou Kuangtian was not weak either, not only was he the top expert of Xiang Island’s southern cultivation school, but also held many Daoist family Divine Techniques, reportedly with no less than ten Daoist Sect members promoting him as the Daoist Sect Master of the world.

What was most crucial is that Zhou Kuangtian had already utilized the water veins of Jiulong Pool.

With the power of water veins, combined with Zhou Kuangtian’s terrifying cultivation, theoretically, defeat was impossible.
