The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
Thinking about everything Zhong Wushiyao had done for him over the past few days, he answered firmly, “Yes!” The moment he finished speaking, Tan Yun continued flying forward on his flying sword without stopping. “Now that I have stepped into the Nascent Soul Realm, I have taken another step closer to the Great Heavenly Dao!” Standing on the flying sword, Tan Yun looked up at the sky with cold eyes. “It has already been 35 days since I parted with Mu Mengyi.” “She must have already broken throug...
Tan Yun paused for a moment.
Thinking about everything Zhong Wushiyao had done for him over the past few days,
he answered firmly,
“Yes!”
The moment he finished speaking,
Tan Yun continued flying forward on his flying sword without stopping.
Below the mountains and forests covered in beautiful mist,
Zhong Wushiyao’s clear and cheerful laughter rang out like the tinkling of silver bells.
“Wonderful… hehe… that’s wonderful!”
The hem of her dress fluttered.
Her graceful figure spun lightly like a colorful butterfly dancing among the mountains.
High in the sky,
Tan Yun was someone who was very clear about his own feelings.
As a man—if he liked someone, he liked them. If he didn’t, then he didn’t.
There was no need to hide it.
He was not the type who would fall in love with every beautiful woman he met.
The reason he had feelings for Zhong Wushiyao was not simply because she was one of the 4 great beauties.
More importantly,
it was because of her gentle heart and kind nature.
“Now that I have stepped into the Nascent Soul Realm, I have taken another step closer to the Great Heavenly Dao!”
Standing on the flying sword, Tan Yun looked up at the sky with cold eyes.
“Just wait!”
“One day… I will make your blood spill across the heavens and pile your corpses like mountains!”
After his killing intent slowly faded,
Tan Yun activated the Primordial Divine Step.
He wanted to test how much his speed had increased
now that his cultivation level had risen and his body had become stronger.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Tan Yun’s figure disappeared from the flying sword in an instant.
The next moment,
he appeared 50 zhang away within the sea of clouds.
Then his figure flashed 10 times consecutively across the clouds.
A distance of 500 zhang was crossed in the blink of an eye.
“Haha! So fast!”
“Excellent!”
Tan Yun hovered motionless within the clouds.
With a light wave of his hand,
the flying sword behind him shot forward like a beam of light
and returned beneath his feet once again.
“It has already been 35 days since I parted with Mu Mengyi.”
“She must have already broken through into the Nascent Soul Realm by now.”
Thinking of Mu Mengyi,
Tan Yun immediately increased the speed of his flying sword.
He headed toward the Sunset Forest, which was more than 110,000 li away.
At a speed of 30,000 li per day.
The sun rose and set.
Time flowed like water.
4 days later — noon.
Tan Yun stood on his flying sword.
When he was about 150 li away from the entrance of Sunset Forest,
his body suddenly trembled and his face filled with worry.
He vaguely saw
flashes of sword light and blade shadows appearing near the edge of the forest.
Many towering ancient trees had collapsed across a large area.
“Damn it!”
Tan Yun grew extremely anxious.
Spiritual energy instantly surged through his entire body.
He pushed the speed of the flying sword to its absolute limit!
After flying another 100 li,
his black hair fluttered wildly.
At the same time,
he released his spiritual sense.
In a single instant,
it covered the entire outer area of Sunset Forest!
Through his spiritual perception,
Tan Yun discovered
20 male disciples, all at Level 1 of the Nascent Soul Realm,
frantically fleeing on flying swords.
As they fled, they shouted loudly:
“Everyone run!”
“We are not a match for Mu Mengyi!”
“Hurry and report to Senior Brother Linghu!”
“Run!”
Seeing this scene,
Tan Yun finally let out a sigh of relief.
Still spreading his spiritual sense across the forest’s outer region,
his eyes filled with killing intent
as he rushed toward Sunset Forest, which was now 50 li away!
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
At 30 li from the forest exit,
the 20 disciples continued fleeing desperately on their flying swords.
They shouted in panic:
“She’s too strong!”
“Mu Mengyi is incredibly powerful!”
“We had 108 cultivators at Level 1 of the Nascent Soul Realm!”
“But in the end… only 20 of us survived!”
“Exactly!”
“Even though her cultivation level is the same as ours!”
“Her combat strength… can’t even be described as merely strong anymore!”
“Yes… it’s terrifying… far too terrifying!”
“……”
After flying 30 li away from the forest,
the 20 disciples finally escaped from Sunset Forest.
When they looked back in fear,
they saw that Mu Mengyi had not chased after them.
They immediately let out a huge sigh of relief,
like fish that had nearly died but were suddenly returned to the sea.
“Thank the heavens! We finally escaped!”
Just as the leading male disciple finished speaking—
suddenly,
a cold voice filled with killing intent echoed through the air!
The force of the voice caused the ancient trees to tremble,
and leaves fell like rain.
“You may have escaped from Sunset Forest…”
“but you cannot escape from my grasp!”
“Who’s there?!”
The 20 disciples were shocked to the extreme.
They hurriedly turned toward the direction of the voice.
At that moment they saw—
a blue shadow leap from a flying sword 300 zhang away
and charge toward them through the air!
The opponent’s speed was so fast
that the 20 disciples could not even see the person’s appearance!
And that person…
who exactly was it?!
None of them even thought of Tan Yun.
Because before the trial began…
Tan Yun was still only at Level 9 of the Spirit Embryo Realm.
Meanwhile, the trial had only progressed for 87 days.
In their minds, no matter how heaven-defying Tan Yun’s talent might be,
it was impossible for him to break through to Level 1 of the Nascent Soul Realm!
“Senior Brother, please don’t attack!”
Zhang Zisheng, the leader of the 20 people, quickly clasped his fists in salute and shouted loudly.
“We are people of Senior Brother Linghu!”
“Yes! We are people of Senior Brother Linghu!”
The other 19 people immediately shouted in agreement.
In their minds,
the name Linghu Changkong was like a life-protecting talisman!
As long as his name was mentioned,
no matter who the opponent was, they would have to show them respect!
“Heh…”
A mocking laugh sounded.
“I am the one who killed that bastard Linghu!”
Along with the mocking voice,
a green shadow flashed through the air
and appeared in front of Zhang Zisheng like lightning!
“Crack! Crack!”
The sound of bones breaking rang out rapidly!
Before Zhang Zisheng could even scream,
his entire body was torn into pieces with bare hands!
Blood sprayed through the air
as fragments of his corpse fell down!
The next moment,
Tan Yun, dressed in a green robe, appeared in midair.
All 10 fingers of his hands were stained with blood.
“Whoosh!”
The flying sword behind him shot forward
and stabilized firmly beneath his feet!
“Tan… Tan Yun!”
“It’s… it’s really Tan Yun!”
“How is that possible!”
“The trial hasn’t even lasted 3 months, how could you break through into the Nascent Soul Realm?!”
One disciple who recovered from the shock roared hoarsely.
“Quick… quick—”
But before the word “run!” could leave his mouth,
his voice suddenly stopped!
His face became blank!
Not only him—
the other 18 people were the same!
Because at that moment,
Tan Yun had activated the Primordial Divine Eyes!
His eyes emitted a strange crimson light,
as if possessing a magical power
that drew the gazes of all 19 people, trapping them in a trance!
They could not break free!
“Tan Yun… it really is you!”
Suddenly,
a woman’s voice rang out.
A girl in red clothing, her entire body stained with blood,
rushed out from Sunset Forest.
She raised her head and looked at Tan Yun floating in the air.
In her beautiful eyes appeared emotions that were
70% joy — 30% love.
Who else could this woman be
other than Mu Mengyi?
“Yes, it’s me.”
“I’m back.”
Tan Yun looked down at Mu Mengyi,
a faint smile appearing on his face.
Then he jumped down from the flying sword!
“ROAR!”
“ROAR!”
“ROAR!”
Suddenly,
3 roars filled with longing echoed from Sunset Forest!
The ground trembled
as the Blood-Winged Lion rushed out,
charging madly toward Tan Yun!
“Whoosh!”
The moment Tan Yun landed on the lush green grass,
he spoke only 1 word.
“Kill.”
He controlled the sword with his spiritual sense!
In an instant,
the flying sword hovering in the air shot forward
and spun past the necks of the 19 disciples who stood frozen on their flying swords!
In just 1 single circle,
the sword returned
and entered the Qiankun Ring on Tan Yun’s finger!
Tan Yun didn’t even turn back to look.
He simply walked forward
step by step
toward Mu Mengyi.
The next moment,
thin lines suddenly appeared around the necks of the 19 disciples floating behind him in the air.
Fresh blood slowly seeped out.
Then suddenly—
19 heads slid off their necks!
The 19 headless bodies, spurting blood,
crashed violently onto the ground behind Tan Yun!
