When a person is in a high-ranking position, their words carry the law.

Chapter 267 Five-Colored Divine Light, Yun Shu's Death

Cinnabar and wood essence combine with metal; where metal and water meet, wood and fire become companions.

The four elements are in a state of chaos, classified as Dragon and Tiger. Dragon is Yang and its number is odd, while Tiger is Yin and its number is even. The liver is green and represents the father, the lungs are white and represent the mother, the kidneys are black and represent the son, the fire element is red and represents the daughter, and the spleen is yellow and represents the ancestor. The twelve earthly branches (子午) are the beginning. These three elements belong to the same family and all belong to the Earth element (戊己).

Taking oneself as earth, and combining it with metal, wood, water, and fire to form a unified whole, this is the "Chapter of the Chaos of the Four Elements".

This chapter, though only in its initial stages, already demonstrates the convergence of the five elements, and its overall grandeur is beyond question.

Bai Ze had actually already reached this point, but he just hadn't broken through.

Just as he said before, he had been cultivating the "Four Chaos Chapters" in seclusion these past few days, so how could he possibly have sneaked into the Yingzhou Secret Realm?

Do you think Bai Ze can learn it after reading it only once after obtaining the "Four Chaos Chapters"?
That would be far too fantastical.

To prove his innocence, Bai Ze took several precautions.

Now that the plan has been completed, Bai Ze no longer needs to stay in the four-star area.

He broke through directly, and the Qi of his five internal organs transformed into the five elements, all flowing towards the Yellow Court, flowing upward to his throat to absorb primordial Qi, and downward to his feet to sense the earth.

Although I was suspended in mid-air, my feet were still connected to the ground, and a mysterious feeling welled up in my heart.

This is gravity; Bai Ze can sense the binding force of gravity on his body.

Based on this, one develops a sense of space, so that even when in mid-air, one feels as if walking on flat ground and can adjust one's balance in time.

Thus, the Five-Star Realm was achieved.

In that short period of time, Bai Ze broke through to the fifth star in front of Yun Shu.

His aura also began to rise, and the five-colored light around his body rippled with wondrous fluctuations.

Yun Shu witnessed Bai Ze's breakthrough firsthand, and a deep ferocity immediately appeared in his crimson eyes.

He did not take the opportunity to escape, because after Bai Ze's breakthrough, his speed would be greatly improved, and such a short time was not enough for Yun Shu to enter the Yingzhou Secret Realm.

Rather—

Seize the opportunity to strike.

A clear light swept across the sky, and a blade of energy, like a rainbow, streaked across the heavens, bringing swift and deadly strikes.

After absorbing the blood of the Great Freedom Demon, Yun Shu's strength has clearly made a new breakthrough. The energy blades condensed by the "Azure Netherworld Severing Technique" are no longer limited to the palm of his hand; they can be released from his hand and even controlled like a sword.

The energy blade flashed like a streak of light, slicing through everything with extreme purity, and in an instant it landed on Bai Ze.

"Ha~"

In that instant, Bai Ze, suspended in mid-air, chuckled softly, his body radiating brilliant light, the five elements and five colors blending into one.

The light rippled like water, changing in five colors: white, blue, black, red, and yellow. When the energy blade struck the light, it was dissolved as if it had been thrown into the sea.

The light flashed and overlapped with the illusory image of the Dharma image behind Bai Ze. The Dharma image then split into five beams of light that resembled long rainbows.

The purpose of the "Chapter on the Chaos of the Four Elements" is not to transform Yin and Yang into the Five Elements, but to unify the Five Elements and make them a harmonious whole.

In the past, Bai Ze could also generate the five elements, and after cultivating the "Chapter on the Functions of Yao Transformation", he became even more adept at it.

The move "Return to One" combines the energies of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements to create various kinds of energy, which are then contained within a single palm.

But that kind of integration is a parallel process where various energies coexist without conflict. Now, Bai Ze is able to fuse the energies of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements into one.

"Five-colored divine light".

With a clear shout, Bai Ze sent a rainbow-like pillar of light streaking across the sky behind him, transforming into a celestial waterfall that fell upon Yun Shu, who was about to take flight.

Yun Shu was right. Such a short time was not enough for him to escape. The air and light that stretched across the sky were enough to leave him with nowhere to run.

The divine light was overwhelming and dazzling, but Yun Shu sensed a terrifying crisis within it.

His mind raced like lightning, and in an instant, he made a decision, abandoning the speedboat and darting away.

Five-colored divine light swept down, covering the speedboat. Under the divine light, the brand-new speedboat melted and decayed at an extremely fast speed, and wisps of turbid mist rose up.

In the blink of an eye, it has become unrecognizable.

"This is—Return to Nothingness!" Upon seeing this scene, Yun Shu was shocked and also discovered the true nature of the five-colored divine light.

This scene of turning into mist is precisely the characteristic of "returning to nothingness".

The only difference is that the previous "Return to Nothingness" required Bai Ze to be close and use his hands or Dharma form to perform it, but the current "Return to Nothingness" is no longer limited to the palm.

That five-colored divine light was an extension of Bai Ze's limbs.

When the five-colored divine light swept down, the five elements changed, evolving into true energy properties that countered the target, turning the close-range defensive move "Return to Nothingness" into a terrifying killing move.

The "Four Elements Chaos Chapter" unites the five elements, and the five-colored divine light can be said to be the embodiment of Bai Ze's true energy. Even when separated from the body, it can freely change the nature of the five elements.

Of course, the power of words to become law also plays a crucial role in this.

If it weren't for the fact that words become law, Bai Ze wouldn't have been able to make the Five-Colored Divine Light transform in time to produce a property that counters the opponent's.

“That’s right, this is ‘Return to Nothingness’.”

Bai Ze stood in the sky and said calmly, "The Five-Colored Divine Light can be said to be my current masterpiece of martial arts. If you can break the Five-Colored Divine Light, you will live."

"If you can't break it, you die."

As soon as he finished speaking, divine light, like swords and rain, pierced through the sky and fell down.

The white radiance represents the metal element, possessing unparalleled sharpness. However, after being evaded by Yun Shu and pierced into the sea, it transformed into the earth element, which then overcomes the water element of the sea.

The crimson fire elemental light, carrying a torrent of heat, met the air blade and instantly transformed into black water elemental energy, eroding the pure energy within the air blade.

Bai Ze himself stood in mid-air, enveloped in five-colored light, while the divine light was freely unleashed, forcing Yun Shu to constantly move and flicker on the sea surface.

Of course, such a magnificent move consumes a great deal of internal energy.

However, Bai Ze's own power has already surpassed that of Yun Shu, a six-star cultivator, not to mention that he can continuously draw upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to replenish himself.

It would be almost impossible for Yun Shu alone to deplete Bai Ze's true energy.

On the other hand, even if Yun Shu has now undergone the baptism of demonic blood, if he continues to hide, he will eventually exhaust his power.

But what can we do if we don't avoid it?
The way Bai Ze is using it doesn't even look like martial arts. Everyone else is practicing martial arts, but he's cultivating immortality.

Seeing that his dodging range was getting narrower and narrower, and the light formed by the five elements was gathering, Yun Shu suddenly lowered his body, abandoned the use of lightness skill, and dived into the sea.

Five-colored divine light swept across the sea surface, and large swaths of water mist surged up under the radiance.

"Hmph, want to run away?"

Bai Ze's eyes remained fixed on Yun Shu's aura. He darted through the air and landed in front of Yun Shu, blocking the rift in the Yingzhou Secret Realm.

"rise."

The five-colored divine light transformed into a rainbow, soaring upwards before suddenly bending and falling into the sea, heading straight for Yun Shu in the water.

The water surged and a powerful aura suddenly erupted beneath the surface.

Yun Shu unleashed a vast and pure aura from his palm, which gathered underwater to form the shapes of a dragon and a tiger, causing the wind and clouds to shift and collide with the five-colored divine light.

He then used his qi blade to unleash the "Azure Cloud Calamity Sword," the sword qi swirling a thousand times, shattering the clouds in a single breath.

However, under the five-colored divine light, no matter how Yun Shu's moves changed, they were all neutralized by the changing radiance.

A martial artist's battle is not just a contest of strength, but also involves many factors such as techniques, willpower, and adaptability. However, for Bai Ze, a martial artist's battle is almost equivalent to a battle of true qi.

To date, no one has been able to surpass Bai Ze, whose words can become law, in terms of the variety of techniques he employs.

laugh--

The seawater evaporated, and large plumes of water vapor rose up, the heat surging and turning the sea surface a bright red.

Such a display of power was almost like burning rivers and boiling seas.

In the rising water temperature, amidst the rising steam, a burst of clear light and flashes of blood-red shadows.

Although Yun Shu also possesses the ability to breathe internally and can move underwater for extended periods, being forced by Bai Ze will only lead to a slow death.

Once the powerful figures on the other side make their move, no matter how far Yun Shu flees, he will not be able to escape. His only way out is the Yingzhou Secret Realm.

"White Pond!"

A roar like a trapped beast broke through the waves, and a blood-red figure darted through the surging mist.

The five-colored divine light followed Bai Ze's will and suddenly turned back, sweeping down towards the blood shadow, but this time Yun Shu did not escape.

His body was as red as flames, his blood and qi burning. He used the life-or-death technique "Azure Blood and Loyal Heart" that he had used in the Jade Capital, and he extremely strengthened his true qi. His palms were like knives and axes, slashing at the divine light.

"boom--"

A long trench was blasted out of the sea, waves rose, and two huge waves burst forth like a water curtain, the turbulent waves causing the other speedboats nearby to scramble away.

"White Pond!"

Yun Shu clashed with the five-colored divine light like a madman, relying on his bursting true energy to forcefully resist the changes in the divine light with immense power.

The true energy exploded, and the mist billowed up, with the vital energy and matter being rapidly dissolved.

The five-colored divine light flowed and changed, mainly composed of the turbidity of earth, and suddenly pressed down.

boom!
The pure energy cultivated by the "Qingwei Heavenly Palace Manual" was dissolved by the turbid energy, and billowing mist surged out.

But beneath the mist, Yun Shu's figure had already vanished.

At the same time, a sense of threat arose in Bai Ze's heart, and his five senses, developed to their fullest extent, perceived the approaching dark energy.

hum-

The air expands and contracts, and the blood-red light draws near.

It's Yun Shu!
His body was covered in blood-red patterns, transforming into a blood-red shadow as he approached Bai Ze.

"So it was the Boundless Blood Body."

Bai Ze had barely finished speaking when Xue Ying arrived in front of him.

Boundless Blood Body is one of the more mainstream demonic blood supernatural powers. It possesses powerful and abundant blood energy and has extremely strong control over the physical body.

This is also one of the demonic blood supernatural powers that enables one to cultivate the tangible and intangible Great Freedom Dharma Body.

The demonic blood bestowed by the Great Freedom will evolve into corresponding demonic blood supernatural powers according to the desires in its master's heart.

For Yun Shu at that time, defeating Bai Ze was his greatest desire.

Therefore, this Demon Blood Divine Power is based primarily on blood and physical strength.

Using blood and qi to unleash "Loyal Heart and Unyielding Spirit" greatly increases the endurance and power of forbidden techniques.

And physical strength—

'That's the possibility of defeating you!'

Yun Shu formed a blade with her fingers, and the energy flowed through the meridians of her arm, transforming her entire arm into a sharp blade.

Bai Ze is renowned for his true qi, and although he hasn't been cultivating for long, even if his skill level improves rapidly, his physical body is still far inferior to that of some five-star martial artists of the same realm.

After all, unlike internal energy, physical training always takes the most time.

And this was the opportunity for victory that Yun Shu believed in.

With the blade in his palm, his five fingers seemed to transform into strange sword blades, tearing apart the emerging five-colored light.

The "Return to Nothingness" technique is not as extreme in its effect on the dissolution of matter as it is in its effect on true qi, and Yun Shu's boundless blood body also greatly enhances the strength of the physical body.

His attack, in the blink of an eye, finally broke through the divine light and went straight for Bai Ze's true form.

Then--

A faint murmur of praise arose, and the five-colored light emanating from Bai Ze's acupoints solidified.

"The feeling of ascending to a high place".

He flipped his palm and struck the side of the "arm blade".

"The Chu sky stretches for a thousand miles."

The surging true energy transformed into shockwaves, causing flesh and blood to fly everywhere.

The physical body is not Bai Ze's weakness.

Even his physical physique was unexpectedly powerful.

However, Bai Ze never actively displayed his physique, and even intentionally or unintentionally concealed it.

"what!"

Yun Shu let out a painful howl, but the attack was not over yet. With a tragic aura, the energy blades burst forth from the torn flesh and bones of his fingers.

"die!"

The sharp edge of the attack erupted further, and a large amount of blood energy was burning.

"You're the one who's damned."

Bai Ze's eyes were as cold as ice, and the five-colored divine light condensed in his palm, which also transformed into a blade of energy.

This is the "Azure Netherworld Severing Technique," which Yun Shu certainly recognizes, but it is more than just the "Azure Netherworld Severing Technique."

The five elements of Qi circulate within the Qi Blade, adding extreme variations and dangers to this Qi-based weaponry technique.

The energy blades clashed, the five-colored energy weapons and the arm bone energy blades passing each other, their crystalline brilliance reflecting a pair of extremely unwilling eyes.

Everything was just like the martial arts competition in Yujing back then. Bai Ze used his qi blade to sever Yun Shu's arm bone.

"You've served your purpose as a stepping stone; it would be ugly to continue struggling."

In the indifferent voice, Yun Shu's pupils saw a palm slowly approaching, covering her entire field of vision.

Then he understood.

I have now played the last role of a stepping stone.

Bai Ze proved his strength by defeating Yun Shu, and he will now replace Yun Shu as the leader of Yujing Martial Arts University to explore the Yingzhou Secret Realm.

What they thought was an opportunity was never an opportunity; in the end, Bai Ze led the expedition to the Yingzhou Secret Realm.

Yun Shu, as a stepping stone, perfectly realized his value.

This was the end for Yun Shu.

"Bai Ze!!!"

With a short, unwilling roar, Bai Ze pressed down on Yun Shu's head with his palm, and five-colored divine light swirled and poured out from under his palm.

"Return to nothingness".

A mist of vapor rose up, and his palm suddenly found itself empty.

Yun Shu's head vanished into nothingness.

At this time, Mu Yaoguang and the others were still trapped on the destroyer, and less than fifteen minutes had passed.

But it's over.

With a weary sigh, the illusory Qingguang Palace slowly crumbled and faded away.

Representatives from all sides rushed out of the conference room and onto the deck, where they saw Yun Shu's headless corpse slowly fall to the ground.

The five-colored divine light continued to entwine his body, causing it to disintegrate.

When the body hit the sea, it turned to dust with a bang.

Moonlight filtered through the thinning mist and fell upon Bai Ze, casting a shimmering, holy glow upon him.

At that moment, everyone understood that Yujing Martial Arts University might be entering a completely new era.
