103: My Godly Father (Thirty-Four)
The spiritual energy in his body was nearly drained, and the agonizing pain from the backlash of the secret technique threatened to tear his Meridians apart.
Quan Yun's figure stumbled out of the Void Realm in a wretched state, crashing heavily onto a floating meteorite and spitting out another mouthful of blood.
The wound on his shoulder was still bleeding, with golden spiritual energy clinging to it, preventing the wound from healing and bringing waves of searing pain.
He did not dare to linger for even a moment.
This place was only a few thousand miles from the battlefield just now; for a Heavenly Spirit Realm expert, such a distance was practically nothing.
He forced his body forward, diving into the shadows of the dense meteorite belt before him, doing his best to restrain his aura.
A death trap.
This was a death trap tailored for him from the very beginning.
The Jiang Family, this immortal ancient clan, had gone to the lengths of setting up such a massive Formation, even sending out more than one Divine Body Prodigy of the Heavenly Spirit Realm, all for the sake of the Sword Scripture's General Outline on his person.
Quan Yun leaned against the back of a cold meteorite, panting heavily, his eyes filled with a cold killing intent.
He quickly treated his wounds and then skillfully navigated through this complex terrain.
His movements became even more eerie and unpredictable.
Over the next few days, Quan Yun moved through the shadows with stealthy movements.
Relying on the rich experience accumulated over seven lifetimes of Reincarnation, he could always find excellent hiding spots, narrowly avoiding detection several times as the Jiang Family Divine Body's Divine Sense swept past.
During this period, he was not without gains.
Inside an inconspicuous meteorite, he discovered a small piece of 'Void Crystal,' an exquisite material for refining spatial Magic Treasures, worth a fortune.
A Prodigy from a Blessed Land who had also discovered the item didn't even have time to cry out before Quan Yun's sword sealed his throat.
He cleanly tossed the corpse into the endless Void Realm below, leaving no trace behind.
In such an environment, any mercy was cruelty toward oneself.
On this day, he was sitting cross-legged on a meteorite to recover.
Boom!
Deep within the Secret Realm, an incomparably brilliant sword light suddenly erupted.
That sword light pierced through the Void Realm of the Meteorite Plain, shooting straight into the clouds.
A powerful ripple of Sword Intent instantly swept across the entire Secret Realm.
Every Prodigy fighting and searching for treasures in this space stopped their actions at that moment, looking toward the source of the sword light in horror.
Quan Yun snapped his eyes open.
He felt it.
That familiar, vast aura of the Sword Scripture that reigned supreme over everything.
"Over there!"
"It's the Sword Scripture! The Sword Scripture has definitely appeared!"
"Quick!"
The Meteorite Plain, which had been silent for a moment, instantly boiled over.
Countless streaks of light rose from every corner, densely packed, frantically converging toward the source of the sword light eruption.
The number of Prodigies was beyond imagination.
Celestial Bodies, which were rarely seen on ordinary days, were now moving in groups.
Divine Bodies, hailed as invincible among their generation, were also not few in number, emitting various divine lights and powerful auras.
There were even descendants from ancient clans carrying rare treasures; with every blink of their eyes, Divine Might flowed.
In just a few moments, over a hundred top Prodigies had gathered on the outskirts of the core area where the sword light had erupted.
Belonging to different factions, they were wary of one another, forming a strange standoff around the Sword Scripture.
The atmosphere was extremely tense, with a great battle ready to break out at any moment.
Quan Yun also quietly arrived at the edge of the battlefield.
He hid in the crevice of a massive meteorite, calmly observing the movements of all parties, searching for the perfect moment to intervene.
At the center of the battlefield, an ancient golden page floated quietly in the Void Realm, emitting an immortal Sword Intent.
"This item has a predestined affinity with my Buddhist Sect!"
A Divine Body Prodigy with Buddhist light behind his head was the first to act, a massive golden Buddhist hand reaching out toward the Sword Scripture page.
"Baldy, get lost!"
On the other side, a Prodigy with surging Demonic Qi shouted coldly, a massive demonic claw tearing through the Void Realm to strike the Buddhist hand.
Boom!
The scramble began.
In an instant, Divine Abilities and Spells flew across the sky, while Sword Qi and blade glints crisscrossed.
The entire battlefield turned into an ocean of energy; massive meteorites continuously shattered under the aftershocks of the powerful attacks, turning into cosmic dust.
Quan Yun's figure was elusive, weaving through the chaotic battlefield.
He was in no hurry to rush to the center, instead using his exquisite swordsmanship and movement techniques to travel through the explosions and streaks of light.
A blind Celestial Body blocked his path and was pierced through the heart by a backhand 'Thrust' from him.
Several aftershocks of attacks shook toward him, all of which he avoided or shattered with minimal cost.
He navigated flexibly through the violent attacks, his movements lethal.
The battle grew increasingly fierce.
During a violent collision between several Divine Body Prodigies, the page of the Sword Scripture was knocked away by the turbulent energy, flying toward Quan Yun's direction.
An opportunity!
An unprecedented light erupted in Quan Yun's eyes; without further hesitation, he transformed into a streak of sword light and charged toward the Sword Scripture page.
His speed was at its limit; before anyone could react, he had already crossed the chaotic circle of battle.
The page of scripture emitting supreme Sword Intent was within reach.
His fingertips could almost touch the edge of the page.
However, at that very moment, a powerful force of restriction suddenly descended from all directions.
Quan Yun's body suddenly stiffened, and his speed abruptly plummeted.
"Buzz!"
Four figures emerged from the Void Realm around him.
They were impressively more Divine Body Prodigies of the Jiang Family!
Including the two who had been hunting him before, a total of six Divine Bodies surrounded him in a Six-Harmonies Formation.
Each held an ancient Formation Plate in their hands; the plates glowed and connected with each other, setting up an inescapable killing Formation that enveloped Quan Yun and the Sword Scripture page together.
"Quan Yun, your path ends here."
The leading Jiang Family Divine Body spoke indifferently, his voice cold.
This was the true death trap of the Jiang Family.
Using a page of the Sword Scripture as bait and the Prodigies of the entire Eastern Region as pawns, the ultimate goal was to lure him into this absolute killing Formation.
Quan Yun was trapped in a desperate situation.
Within the killing Formation, his speed was greatly restricted, and even the flow of his sword momentum became sluggish.
"Kill!"
The six Divine Body Prodigies launched their attacks simultaneously.
Fist energy, arrows, blade light... six distinct but equally terrifying forces blasted toward him from six directions.
Quan Yun roared, swinging his sword with all his might to resist.
Pfft!
He blocked a blast of fist energy but was pierced through the calf by an arrow.
He shattered a blade glint, but his back was hit by another force, sending him lunging forward, drenched in blood.
The threat of death loomed over him.
He resisted with all his strength, sword light dancing, but under the siege of this killing Formation specially prepared for him and six peerless Divine Bodies, he was at the end of his rope.
Just as he was about to be completely submerged by a brilliant divine light and his consciousness began to fade.
Triggered by an unknown attack, the page of the Sword Scripture floating in the center of the Formation suddenly erupted with unparalleled Sword Intent.
At the same time, deep within Quan Yun's Sea of Consciousness, that Ancient Small Tower that had been silent all along suddenly trembled violently.
It was as if a giant beast that had slept for ages was awakening.
An ancient, vast, and incomparably immense aura boomed out from the small tower.
The next moment.
An invisible and powerful suction surged from the small tower, acting directly and abruptly on that brilliant Sword Scripture page in mid-air.
Whoosh!
Under the horrified gazes of the crowd, the supreme Sword Scripture page that had caused countless Prodigies to fight frantically turned into a streak of light, instantly sinking into the space between Quan Yun's eyebrows and being swallowed by the small tower in one gulp.
In an instant, the entire battlefield fell silent.
Everyone's eyes—whether it was the Jiang Family Divine Bodies surrounding him or the countless Prodigies outside the Formation—all focused on Quan Yun.
Those gazes were full of greed, madness, and infinite killing intent.
Quan Yun had become the target of all.
