A Scroll of Infinite Glory

Chapter 284 Vacuum Transformation into a Dragon, the True Form of the Tiger King

Splash! Splash! Splash!

A large amount of lake water was blasted away by the aftershocks of the battle between six-star experts, and the soil, rocks and aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake were exposed near the shore.

However, water has no fixed shape; it is the softest yet most resilient thing in the world.

After the giant wave was pushed far away, the battle in the mountains and fields subsided, and the water flowed back, so another series of huge waves rushed towards the empty space on the shore.

The sound of the waves was deafening. The broken waves and layers of foam and bubbles washed ashore, carrying away large amounts of soil back into the lake.

The waves became murky, and the entire surface of the lake undulated.

Wang Haichan's breakthrough was interrupted, and his foundation was severely damaged, unlike a simple loss of internal energy that is easy to recover from.

Guan Luoyang took the demon pearl, leaving behind a wisp of vital energy, and sent it to Qin Zhiyue.

Qin Zhiyue possessed a magical artifact capable of containing living people. As soon as Wang Haichan arrived, a jade halo appeared in the air, engulfing him, Edward, and Blue Scorpion, and they disappeared.

Blue Scorpion's medicine was still not fully effective, so it shouldn't be wasted. However, her Forget-Love Heart Sword only reached the six-star level in terms of lethality; in other aspects, it was inferior.

Qin Zhiyue stored her in a magic treasure, leaving her a water mirror that could observe and sense the outside world, and also allow her to launch a sword directly from the storage treasure when necessary.

It compensates for her weaknesses while preserving her lethality, making it arguably the most suitable fighting style for her at present.

Fu Wan carried his large black banner. Suddenly, a white fox image flashed across one corner of the banner, causing him to frown slightly, as if he had sensed something.

The flag fluttered in the wind as he chuckled, "Lord Qin, among the human sects of Juku Continent, the most powerful force right now is none other than your Giant Spirit Cave. You possess countless magical treasures, yet you still conceal this sharp sword before daring to continue fighting against an old, useless wretch like me?"

Qin Zhiyue grinned, revealing her teeth: "A tiger that has become a demon is a treasure trove. Even if it's old and dead, it can never be considered useless, unless... its bones are crushed to ashes and its spirit and form are completely destroyed."

"Oh!"

The old monster looked at Qin Zhiyue, then at Guan Luoyang and the others several miles away, and shook his head, saying, "In fact, when Earth Immortals fight, even if their magical power differs, it is difficult to determine whether one will live or die. They often live together or die together."

"During the war between the two races, many Earth Immortals clashed. Even if one's magical power was superior to the other's, if pushed to the extreme, one would inevitably suffer a counterattack, shattering one's soul and other orifices, and inevitably heading towards death. Of the twenty-seven Earth Immortals from both races, only a handful survived, which serves as a warning from the past."

Qin Zhiyue laughed and said, "The Demon King is spouting nonsense here, seemingly not caring at all that your subordinates are being slaughtered in droves by my human race's array techniques and magical artifacts?"

Fu Wanshen shook his head: "I only regret that if we really fought to the death here, wouldn't we spend our entire lives, yearning for it for a hundred years, without ever seeing the true face of the Heavenly Book?"

Qin Zhiyue's expression was strange. She said, "You don't mean to suggest that we join forces to retrieve the Heavenly Book first, and then determine who is superior, do you?"

"There's no need to join forces."

Fu Wanshen said, "After a hundred years, the interior of the Heavenly Book Abyss has become smaller and smaller. Although the void is disordered, it is still a major problem, but I have my own means to break through the perilous situation in the abyss."

"You should know that both volumes of the Heavenly Book are celestial treasures. Even if we find them, we cannot use them easily. Lord Qin, Lord Yuan, and this fellow Daoist, you can accompany us. Once we see the Heavenly Book from afar, we can then fight to see who is better. Even if we die, we will have no regrets."

Several miles away, Feng Jun suddenly smiled.

He had just been beaten so badly that he spat out Wang Haichan, but now he had restrained his anger and said to Guan Luoyang, "Judging from your methods, you probably have the same background as me and Blue Scorpion."

"For people like us, we never know what dangers we'll encounter tomorrow. We always feel we're not strong enough, and we have too few magical treasures. Now that we have such powerful treasures at our side, wouldn't it be foolish to risk injury or even death just to fight them off before even seeing them?"

As Feng Jun finished speaking, he moved his lips, but no sound came out. Only Guan Luoyang, who was directly in front of him, could see his lip movements.

"If you lose strength and are severely injured, these local figures will probably just offer a few words of thanks and some flattery, and that'll be the end of it. Even if they do offer some gifts, how could they possibly allow you to touch the Heavenly Book?"

Fu Wanshen laughed again, "Lord Qin, if the Heavenly Book truly appears in the world, even if not a single one of us Earth Immortals survives, your sect and my juniors can still continue to vie for it. Given the chaotic situation of the great war, whoever wields the Heavenly Book will naturally have a chance to fulfill their wish of unifying the hundred sects and ruling over all factions. The Giant Spirit Cave's centuries-old vision—do you dare to gamble on it?"

Qin Zhiyue hesitated for a moment, then looked at Guan Luoyang.

She was instinctively reluctant to accept the demon's proposal, but she couldn't be sure what Guan Luoyang, this outsider, was really thinking.

All three parties' attention turned to this.

Guan Luoyang tilted his head, and two beams of golden-red fire shot out from his eyes, burning the demonic pearl that had been swallowed before. It was now free of poison and dust, and landed in his hand.

"Lord Qin."

He held the bead in his hand and said, "I don't believe in many principles in my life, but there is one that I think you should understand."

"Since we are enemies, we should thwart any of their schemes."

Feng Jun said, "This matter is mutually beneficial if we cooperate..."

"But you're unhappy, while I'm very happy."

Guan Luoyang suddenly moved, transforming into a thick bolt of blue lightning that ripped through the sky and struck Feng Jun.

Feng Jun's figure vanished like sand in the wind.

"I was caught off guard just now, and your bead caused trouble in my stomach, which is why I suffered some harm. Now that the bead is gone, you can't even touch me."

Feng Jun's voice rang out from all directions at the same time, and ice-blue hands rose from the ground. The fluid blue arms extended endlessly, pushing the giant palms to strike Guan Luoyang in a staggered manner.

The giant hand clearly had the color and texture of ice crystals, yet it seemed incredibly soft, grabbing at everything in its path.

This enormous commotion should have caused violent air currents and distorted air and light, yet wherever these giant hands passed, all the dust and debris around them slowed down.

The debris in the air, which was originally scattering wildly, slowed down as if frozen when those giant hands approached, and was caught up and crushed by the giant hands.

The already tiny dust particles became even more fragmented, and the icy blue toxic power of the evil god penetrated to the molecular level.

If you magnify this scene millions of times, you can see that the mere collision of the icy blue giant hand caused the surface of the molecules that make up this dust particle to turn a moldy, eerie blue color.

Deep-sea divine power, ice form, time slowing, the grip of the god of corruption!

Even the lightning swirling around Guan Luoyang slowed down and became sluggish as these giant hands approached.

The lightning, which should have been second only to light in speed, now slowed down to a point where each leap and each inch of its spread was visible to the naked eye.

Feng Jun was right. If he hadn't accidentally swallowed one of Guan Luoyang's magic pearls, with his evil god power and magical skills, he shouldn't have been so easily defeated by a martial artist's fists and feet.

Now that there was no more interference in his body, he focused all his attention on unleashing the essence and ultimate moves he had learned in his life, determined to avenge his previous humiliation!

But just as these giant, icy blue hands began to press down, layer upon layer...

Guan Luoyang raised one hand towards the sky.

All the surrounding scenery, which was slowing down, including the distant mountains and forests, blurred for a moment.

The power from the vacuum is permeating the natural landscape on the surface of the world.

Countless trembling, blurred scenes resembled a tsunami playing together.

Guan Luoyang's overwhelming power supported all the icy blue giant palms, and the abundant vacuum divine power even made it difficult for those evil gods' poisons to get close for the time being.

Nine more demonic beads burst forth from his body, and even the one between his drooping left fingers trembled.

The ten magic orbs form a circle, each scattering outwards in a chosen direction.

Within the area encompassed by the circle formed by these ten beads, all wills not belonging to Guan Luoyang are violently repelled.

Feng Jun, who had concealed his true form by distorting the space around him, felt an immense, boundless force sweep over him.

This immense power continued to rise, and in the blink of an eye, it exceeded the limit that the space he controlled could withstand.

The void twisted for a moment, revealing his true form.

"What...?"

BOOM!!!

Guan Luoyang pressed his palm against Feng Jun's face.

Feng Jun's body was violently forced backward, and the air behind him, at this speed, was like an impenetrable wall, constantly colliding with his body.

Sonic boom clouds exploded in concentric rings.

His eyes bulged outwards, and through the gaps between Guan Luoyang's fingers, he saw that the giant icy blue palms that had attacked Guan Luoyang earlier were broken in mid-air, scattered and shattered.

"You don't have the magic orb in your stomach anymore, but you also don't have my friend, so... I don't need to worry about accidentally hurting anyone!!!"

Guan Luoyang had only recently reached the six-star level, but his Demon Dragon Emperor Fist had refined Zhao Kuangyin's cultivation, transforming it into a golden-red dragon energy demon pearl.

Later, when he studied the notes on alchemy and weapon crafting from Longhu Mountain and reforged the twenty-eight divine weapons, he was also moved. In the days of waiting for his ascension, he carefully roasted the ten magic beads again.

The original ten magic beads were clearly distinct from each other. However, due to the perilous war at the time, they were forged in a hurry without much thought. When they were scattered, they did not affect their use, but when they were gathered in the same place, their coordination was inevitably flawed.

After meticulous melting and reforging, Guan Luoyang used the imperial dragon energy as a brush to deeply imprint his insights into cultivation techniques after reaching the sixth star into the ten demon beads, transforming them into the main vein that runs through the ten demon beads, allowing them to resonate with each other and become one.

Once cast, these beads can be separated by hundreds of miles, allowing Guan Luoyang's thoughts to travel to the other side, and they can also resonate and stir up waves of the divine power of the vacuum.

At this moment, the ten demonic beads have expanded to a diameter of about three miles. This entire spherical area is filled with Guan Luoyang's will and the power of the vacuum.

Dragons are divine creatures, capable of being large or small. When large, they can swallow the four seas and soar into the universe; when small, they can hide their form and become so subtle that they cannot be measured.

The transformation of a hundred dragons into feathers doesn't actually require them to be in the form of dragons.

The formless and shapeless divine power of the vacuum can also be seen as a dragon.

Where Guan Luoyang is located, the Demon Pearl forms the boundary, and formless dragons roam and spread, which is the manifestation of the Daoist temple.

When Fu Wan raised his eyes, what he saw was a huge, colorless sphere that looked like a falling star, crushing everything in its path, pushing aside the wind, and hurtling towards him.

With his next glance, he saw the things inside the dojo, and saw Guan Luoyang pushing Feng Jun, causing the entire dojo, which was three or four miles in diameter, to crash into him.

Qin Zhiyue was initially worried that Guan Luoyang might be swayed by the monster and lose his fighting spirit, but when she saw this scene, that doubt was long gone. She took a big step back in shock to avoid being affected by the force of the collision.

Fu Wan was locked in by the opponent's aura and had no way to avoid it. He had no choice but to hold the Xuan Yin Gui Yuan Banner diagonally, grab its tail with his left hand and grasp its middle with his right hand, and push it forward to withstand Guan Luoyang's collision.

The boundary of the invisible dojo collided with the great flag first, with a loud bang!

Immediately afterwards, Guan Luoyang pushed Feng Jun's head and slammed it hard into the Xuan Yin Gui Yuan Flag, into the section of the flagpole between Fu Wanshen's palms.

Feng Jun let out a furious roar, and finally, taking advantage of the moment when the two collided, he gained a little freedom from Guan Luoyang's suppression.

But then, his head swelled up, as if it had vaporized, and was evaporated and disappeared in the collision of the two forces.

The headless body exploded into countless eerie blue ice blocks and water droplets.

Guan Luoyang's palm truly landed on the Xuan Yin Gui Yuan Banner.

This human and this demon are opposites, representing the north and south.

After this clash, a long east-west trough split open in the ground, lying between the two of them.

This great crack extends eastward between the mountain peaks and westward into the lake. It is exceptionally narrow, only a little over two feet wide, but it is dark and bottomless.

Even Qin Zhiyue was unaware of how deep the earth was, as the impact of their collision caused it to crack open.

However, upon noticing that eerie blue light attempting to seep into the crack, she immediately used the Giant Spirit Cave's stealth technique, transforming several of her magical treasures into earth and stone, and went to the crack to collect all the eerie blue light spots formed from Feng Jun's remains.

Although Feng Jun was severely injured, he still had some strength left, and released a potent poison.

In the blink of an eye, several of Qin Zhiyue's precious magical treasures were corroded, and even her Earth Immortal magic power showed signs of being contaminated by the poison.

She let out a low shout, gathering more magical power. At that moment, a heart sword shot out from the jade pendant at her waist.

The two combined finally contained Feng Jun's remains within a celestial copper sphere, returning it to Qin Zhiyue's side and suppressing it completely.

Wow!!!

The violent power was still surging and overflowing in that deep ravine, gradually sinking.

The Xuan Yin Gui Yuan Banner was stretched straight to the south, and an endless devouring power faintly emanated from it, dissolving the force rushing towards it from the opposite side.

Fu Wanshen's body trembled slightly.

"you……"

The old monster stared at Guan Luoyang, his pupils contracting, his face trembling, and he managed to say, "You're actually not even thirty years old, yet you already possess such magical power?!"

"This seems to be the second time I've ruined things by underestimating you."

"I haven't used my full strength since I ascended to immortality."

Guan Luoyang struck out with his left palm, then pressed down with both palms overlapping, saying, "I have no idea how strong I am now!!!"

The old monster was struck by such force that a wave rolled across his body, starting from his loose-skinned face and spreading throughout his entire body.

Beneath the clothes, the tiger's fur peeked out from the skin, and a "king" character on its forehead was faintly visible.

They were about to be exposed in their true form.

"Hoo, I, I..."

The demon gasped for breath, struggling, its head tilting slightly, its neck twitching, as if in addition to the external pressure, some immense pain from within was tormenting it.

"Me too... I haven't used my full strength in a hundred years!"

scoff-

The tiger's skin was torn apart starting from its head, splattering blood, and its nine snow-white fox tails fluttered wildly.
