Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 779 - 327: Saint Ancestor Wind God Painting (Part 2)
Previously on Cultivating with Top Enlightenment...
From a distance of twenty miles, the cultivators from the three armies watched the battle, their jaws dropping in awe at the massive tornado that soared into the skies.
Battles at the domain master level are invariably so intense that no one can possibly get involved.
Should they try to step in, they'd probably get pulled into that whirlwind long before approaching it!
Dark green hues blended within the tornado, incorporating the verdant essence of the Wind Rule alongside the ebony shards of the void.
Observed from far off, it looked made up of countless streaks, every one powerful enough to tear apart the void.
Overall, it took the form of a fearsome serpent coiling upward, towering as if to touch the celestial heights!
In the tornado's path, Ning Qi seemed incredibly small, hovering in place much like an unyielding stone amid ocean surges, refusing to yield.
His pristine white garments billowed fiercely, strands of hair whipping back in frenzy, giving the impression he might get engulfed by the raging storm.
"Wind God Dragon Devour!"
A bellow from Khong Shan Qing thundered out from the tornado's core, echoing like the roar of a mighty serpent.
In the instant that followed, the shadowy green vortex surged toward the tiny figure of Ning Qi.
But Ning Qi made no attempt to evade, causing the witnesses to believe he was being ripped apart by the tornado, vanishing without a trace.
The onlookers felt a jolt of shock, almost crying out in surprise.
Then, a voice filled with incredulity rang out from Khong Shan Qing amid the whirling tempest.
"Ning Qi, you also know the Wind Rule?"
In reality, Ning Qi hadn't been destroyed; instead, he had deliberately unleashed the Wind Rule and merged seamlessly with it.
Thanks to his unparalleled comprehension, as Khong Shan Qing unleashed his strike, Ning Qi had already devised innumerable responses in his thoughts, grasping every technique the opponent possessed.
However, Khong Shan Qing never expected Ning Qi to wield the Wind Rule too, with prowess in the Wind Path that could match even a specialist like himself.
As a result, those watching saw the colossal tornado, one that could devastate entire worlds, abruptly face a chaotic disturbance from within.
It had been rotating in a counterclockwise direction at first, yet suddenly a powerful energy emerged, causing it to spin in the opposite way.
The arrogant Khong Shan Qing let out a cry, "How is this possible?"
As Ning Qi's energy infiltrated, Khong Shan Qing came to see that Ning Qi's command over the Wind Path didn't just match his own—it greatly exceeded it.
This discovery stunned Khong Shan Qing completely!
The tornado came to an abrupt standstill, halting in an astonishingly quick manner, and a battered form was hurled out from the emptiness—it was Khong Shan Qing.
Thrown spread-eagled, he barely managed to summon a bit of inner energy to halt his momentum.
Khong Shan Qing panted heavily, his looks utterly changed, robes shredded, locks disheveled in uneven lengths, and he gazed blankly at Ning Qi, pointing a finger toward him, managing just one word after what felt like ages.
"You..."
After those words, a gush of blood erupted from him, splattering his chest crimson.
Ning Qi's power had gone beyond anything Khong Shan Qing imagined!
A wry grin crossed his face as he thought back to his earlier plan to dominate Ning Qi—how ridiculous that seemed now?
Having been born with immense pride, the prouder someone is, the more crushing it feels to be totally beaten in their greatest strength!
How could it be that, though both were domain masters, Ning Qi's might proved so much greater?
Those viewing from afar shared the same astonishment.
The troops from Langya Domain had previously only witnessed Ning Qi slaying Qi Baishou, who was just an Integration Realm Extreme Venerable, dispatched with a mere look; they hadn't perceived Ning Qi's horrifying potential.
In this clash with a domain master, Ning Qi revealed his prowess, allowing them to truly comprehend his capabilities.
This person inspired terror on a profound level; Zhu Yanchuan and his allies even questioned whether their sect's Unity Realm experts could hold their own against Ning Qi if they joined the fray.
Qi Keqing and his group felt the impact most deeply.
All of them had been overpowered single-handedly by Khong Shan Qing, who barely seemed to try, as they battled frantically yet couldn't muster the tiniest bit of opposition.
Having felt a domain master's might up close, they finally grasped the dread instilled by such beings, and now they viewed Ning Qi with godlike admiration.
The man standing there, who so easily subdued Khong Shan Qing just as Khong Shan Qing had subdued them, wasn't he like a god?
Those in the Profound Truth Realm had already beheld the wonders wrought by alliance leaders, and now their eyes brimmed with awe as they looked upon Ning Qi's silhouette.
Within their minds, Ning Qi stood equal to a deity.
With cool detachment, Ning Qi addressed Khong Shan Qing, "Don’t you have other methods? I arrested Qianying and learned about your origins, heard that you have met the ancestor of Vast Realm’s strongest sect, Vast Immortal Sect, and were taken as a named disciple?"
This knowledge was why Ning Qi refrained from slaying Khong Shan Qing right away.
Given that he had been accepted as a named disciple by the mightiest in Vast Realm, perhaps Khong Shan Qing possessed some protective treasure for survival?
Though Ning Qi could now confront Unity Realm experts, his curiosity persisted.
Apart from the wills of the Mountain and Sea Realm and Vast Realm, scant few beings piqued Ning Qi's fascination.
The Mountain and Sea Realm housed the fabled Mountain Ancestor and Sea Ancestor, while in Vast Realm, from the details gleaned from Qianying, he learned of entities comparable to them, revered by cultivators there as the Saint Ancestor!
Ning Qi assessed his own power, which even flawless Unity Realm masters couldn't shake.
Still, concerning the paramount existences in these realms, Ning Qi felt intrigue mixed with wariness.
He pondered if his abilities measured up to those of the realms' supreme powers?
