Chapter 2001: Essence Spirit Sword Condensation

Translator: Legge 

For Su Zimo, activating his bloodline and releasing his Bloodline phenomenon to fight Yun Ting head-on was naturally the simplest and most direct solution.

Furthermore, he believed that with the augmentation of the Six Tusk Divine Elephant divine power, the Creation Green Lotus phenomenon could definitely defeat Yun Ting’s Blood Sword phenomenon!

However, that would merely be a defeat.

Su Zimo did not have the confidence to kill a prince.

That was because he did not know how many trump cards and treasures Yun Ting had.

If he could not kill Yun Ting, the Creation Green Lotus would be exposed.

Su Zimo had not known Yun Ting for long. Although this person was proud and conceited, he was honest right from the beginning and did not have any sinister thoughts.

However, Su Zimo did not dare to take the gamble!

Nobody knew better than him what sort of killing intent the Creation Green Lotus would attract if it was exposed.

The scene of his ascension often flashed through his mind and he still had lingering fear.

King Yun You was not the only one attracted by the Creation Green Lotus—there were other Immortal King experts as well!

Given Su Zimo’s current cultivation, he could not withstand a second similar attack.

Of course, even without releasing his Bloodline phenomenon, he had other methods!

Those methods were even more intense and berserk!

Su Zimo’s gaze was deep and his glabella shone, releasing an extremely terrifying spirit consciousness fluctuation.

“Essence Spirit attack?”

Sensing something amiss, Yun Ting guessed Su Zimo’s thoughts instantly.

However, he did not take it to heart and merely shook his head gently. “It’s not a bad idea to use an Essence Spirit secret skill. However, you’re still way too naive.”

“I sensed long ago that your Essence Spirit realm has already reached the Earth Immortal realm. However, you might not know that my Essence Spirit realm has long broken through to the Earth Immortal realm as well!”

The moment he said that, Yun Ting no longer hid and released a tremendous spirit consciousness pressure as well.

Level 2 Earth Essence realm!

Essence Spirits were the most difficult to cultivate.

In the upper world, it was almost impossible for Essence Spirit cultivation to surpass personal cultivation.

Anyone who could surpass a minor personal cultivation realm was already a peerless monster incarnate.

There were not many people in the entire Divine Firmament Immortal Domain who could surpass two minor realms like Yun Ting!

The main reason why Su Zimo could do that was because his Essence Spirit was formed by the power of the Green Lotus and Dragon Phoenix Essence Spirits combined with the power of the Prajna Nirvana Sutra.

Right now, he was a Grade 9 Black Immortal and his Essence Spirit cultivation was also at the Level 2 Earth Essence realm.

However, with the augmentation of the Six Tusk Divine Elephant, the power of his Essence Spirit, body and bloodline increased by four times.

Although his Essence Spirit cultivation did not change much, the power of his Essence Spirit was already equivalent to the Level 3 Earth Essence realm!

Naturally, Yun Ting could sense the difference.

However, he was in no hurry.

Yun Ting smiled faintly. “Indeed, the power of your Essence Spirit is superior to mine. However, you’ll still lose if you fight with your Essence Spirit.”

“That’s because no one can defend against my Essence Spirit Sword!”

Yun Ting’s tone revealed immense confidence.

“Is that so?”

Su Zimo’s expression was calm and unmoved.

A palm-sized scarlet dragon scale slowly floated out from his glabella. It was in the shape of a crescent and was filled with a terrifying aura.

Essence Spirit secret skill—Reverse Scale!

The moment the Reverse Scale appeared, the entire hall seemed to have frozen. Only the dragon scale floated slowly towards Yun Ting, emitting a shuddering energy fluctuation!

It was as though any power that made contact with the dragon scale would suffer a destructive impact!

Even the middle-aged Daoist priest and the other two who were attacking Tang Ziyi revealed wary expressions and retracted their spirit consciousnesses, afraid that they would attract the killing power of the dragon scale!

“Good, good, good!”

Yun Ting had a fearless expression as he nodded repeatedly and shouted, “Since you want to fight with your Essence Spirit, I’ll let you undertake a complete loss today!”

His glabella opened up and a sword hovered in his consciousness where his Essence Spirit was!

Essence Spirit Sword!

Su Zimo focused his gaze.

The Essence Spirits of any living being were born from their bodies and were not much different from their true forms.

Yun Ting was a human but his Essence Spirit was a sword. Su Zimo had only seen such a situation in one person.

That was his eldest disciple, Beiming Xue.

Beiming Xue’s Essence Spirit, her Martial Spirit, was a sword!

His eldest disciple’s talent in the Dao of the sword was unparalleled.

But now, Su Zimo saw a second person with an Essence Spirit Sword!

“Slay!”

Yun Ting pointed forward and hollered softly.

Swoosh!

In his consciousness, Yun Ting’s Essence Spirit Sword released a blood-colored sword beam that was extremely sharp as it slashed towards the Reverse Scale!

The two Essence Spirit secret skills collided instantly without any commotion or sound.

However, the moment they collided, Su Zimo and Yun Ting felt their hearts skip a beat!

The blood-colored blade penetrated the Reverse Scale and descended in Su Zimo’s consciousness instantly, slashing towards the Green Lotus Essence Spirit!

Poof! Poof! Poof!

Sensing danger, rays of light spewed out from the 81 lotus holes.

The 81 green lotus seeds seemed to have condensed into long swords that struck the blood-colored blade repeatedly. Finally, they dissipated and the Green Lotus Essence Spirit was not injured at all.

On the other side, Yun Ting’s Essence Spirit Sword felt a strange power augmenting his body and he could not dodge at all!

Bang!

The Essence Spirit Sword trembled violently before shattering, revealing a tiny Essence Spirit that shone with silver light. It resembled Yun Ting and retreated a few steps in a flustered manner.

When he saw that, Su Zimo was enlightened.

Yun Ting’s Essence Spirit Sword had not been cultivated to its limits and his Essence Spirit had not transformed into a sword completely.

Now that it was exposed to the power of the Reverse Scale, its true form was revealed.

At the same time, Su Zimo was secretly alarmed.

Anyone who touched the Reverse Scale of a dragon would die!

Up till this point of his cultivation, the only person of the same cultivation realm who could defend against the Reverse Scale was Yun Ting!

While defending against the Reverse Scale, the sharpness of Yun Ting’s Essence Spirit Sword descended in his consciousness and threatened his Essence Spirit!

If not for the Creation Lotus Platform, it would have been difficult for his Essence Spirit to escape unscathed against that sharpness.

Actually, Su Zimo knew very well that in terms of the power of Essence Spirit secret skills, Yun Ting’s blood-colored blade was superior to the Reverse Scale.

However, the power of his Essence Spirit was a realm above Yun Ting.

Furthermore, Yun Ting’s attempt to dispel the formation at the entrance of the main hall had taken a huge toll on his Essence Spirit.

Under such circumstances, the two of them merely fought to a draw!

Su Zimo was merely surprised. However, Yun Ting was shocked and his heart surged!

How was that possible?

His Essence Spirit Sword, the blood-colored blade, had failed?

What treasure was in Su Zimo’s consciousness that could neutralize his blood-colored blade?

A fight between Essence Spirits was way too dangerous!

Notwithstanding the fact that his Essence Spirit Sword returned fruitless, even his Essence Spirit was shaken out of its true form by the dragon scale!

Yun Ting was truly shocked by this Essence Spirit fight.

He had not realized that the true terror was yet to come!
