Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 869A – The Best Method

“Hahahaha! Scream! Scream more! The more you scream with despair, the happier I am!” East Capital had stripped away his black robes to reveal his scar-covered body. Because of the blood surging through his veins in his excitement, his scars had turned bright red. He looked like a pottery figure that had been shattered and glued back together. It was an ugly and ferocious sight.

On the ground, a weak figure covered in bruises was curled up into a ball. Although the boy had long since fallen unconscious his face was still flooded with horror, despair, and pain, as he continuously twitched.

Zhou Hu’s eyes were wide open and blood dripped down from their corners. His lips had almost been bitten off and his body violently twisted and distorted. But, he was imprisoned and couldn’t free himself.

He could only watch as his little sister was cruelly tortured and beaten, to the point where she was nearly dead. He had already reached the edge of collapse and only a single thought remained in his mind – Kill him! Kill this man!

“Humph!” East Capital coldly snorted. Such a weak girl couldn’t withstand his conquest at all. If things continued like this and she died, it would be far too boring.

He lifted a finger. Strength appeared in the air and was directly injected into Zhou Hui’s body, awakening her from her coma.

“Little girl, now it’s your turn to be the audience. My tastes run deep and I don’t care if it’s a man or a woman. Keep your eyes wide open and appreciate the view…remember, don’t close your eyes. Every time you close your eyes, I will break one of his bones. I always speak the truth, so don’t blame me for not reminding you.” East Capital eerily laughed before walking over to Zhou Hu.

“Brother…brother…” The severely weakened Zhou Hui desperately cried out, without any time to think about her own pain and despair.

But in truth, she knew that today the two of them were doomed to die here.

No one would save them!

But why? They were all humans? Under the cruel rule of the obams, shouldn’t they unite together to face their enemies? From birth until now, this was what her parents had taught her.

But today, the siblings were going to learn an incomparably cruel lesson in how brutal and uncaring reality was.

The price of this lesson would not just be their dignities and bodies, but most likely their lives!

Tears streamed down her cheeks. Zhou Hui watched as her big brother was grabbed and his clothes were torn off. The man let out bestial roars of excitement.

“No…”

She screamed in misery!

Bang –

A sound erupted without warning. The cave filled with violent fluctuations of power as if a great wave had suddenly struck. Zhou Hui was sent shaken away. Before her consciousness fell into darkness, she faintly saw a vague figure as well as hearing East Capital’s angry and pained roars.

…

When Qin Yu arrived outside the cave, East Capital had already completed his violent acts. He looked at the black robes that were flung to the floor and immediately confirmed his status.

Fallen human!

His thoughts raced. The moment East Capital pounced on Zhou Hu, Qin Yu didn’t hesitate to make his move. Not only was this to save the boy, but more importantly it was an excellent opportunity.

Killing a fallen human would not only weaken their strength, but if he could lead them into angrily chasing him down, that would hinder them from breaking through the great array formation.

“You are courting death…” After being surprise attacked, East Capital was enraged and his eyes were blood red. But just as he roared out loud, he was interrupted midway.

Qin Yu said, “Bound in ice!”

Hum –

Between the world, invisible fluctuations of rules erupted and instantly changed.

Enforcement of the Word…with a word, it was enforced by the heavens and earth!

A layer of translucent ice rapidly appeared on East Capital’s naked body. It was dark blue in color, imprisoning him.

But soon after, with loud snapping sounds, cracks appeared in the layer of ice as it loudly shattered.

With Qin Yu’s current cultivation, his Enforcement of the Word had an extremely limited power; he could only imprison someone for a short period of time.

But this was more than enough for Qin Yu. He never thought of using Enforcement of the Word to cause heavy losses to his opponent.

A first punched out, with white flames blazing on its surface. It was solemn and sacred, and within the flames one could see the phantom of a towering mountain.

This was Paradise Mountain, the condensation of the Dao Monarch’s Great Dao that was placed between reality and illusion. It represented a strike of the Great Dao.

This could be called Qin Yu’s own edition of the Great Dao Prospers Forever!

Bang –

The fist crashed into East Capital’s chest. Flesh and blood was burned away by the holy light, revealing the white bones below. Then, these bones started to melt at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“Ahh!”

East Capital screeched in pain. Because at this time it wasn’t just his mortal body that was being injured, his soul was also being incinerated.

East Capital raised a hand and his fingers burst apart. Long claws grew out, flashing with metallic light as they grasped at Qin Yu.

Space was split apart, creating several cracks. It could be seen how terrifying the power of these claws was.

Qin Yu shouted out, “Five Element Samsara!”

Bang –

White, black, blue, red, yellow, five colors instantly erupted, weaving together into a vortex that shielded Qin Yu.

Puff –

The sharp claws submerged into the vortex, directly splitting it apart. But the five colors suddenly erupted with divine light, releasing a formidable imprisoning strength that forcefully suppressed it.

Qin Yu stepped forward. His body passed through the vortex and he raised a finger, pointing it between East Capital’s eyebrows.

“Blue Finger!”

Boundless Blue, Blue Sea, Blue Spirit, Blue Heaven – only by successfully perceiving the four Blue Fingers could one reach their true powers.

This had become Qin Yu’s current finger!

Taking advantage of the jade pendant embryo egg’s strength, he was able to condense the Five Element Samsara as well as combine the four Blue Fingers into one.

It could be said that in today’s sudden attack where he tried to kill the fallen human East Capital, Qin Yu had erupted with his greatest strength!

And this finger was the strongest killing technique that Qin Yu could release right now.

Puff –

With a dull thumping sound, East Capital stiffened. A circular hole appeared between his eyebrows, passing straight through his skull.

White and red goo splattered outwards. East Capital’s wide eyes were filled with disbelief.

But at this moment, a strange sight occurred. The corpse of the slain East Capital broke apart like a shadow and vanished from sight.

Then, hundreds of feet away, space distorted. Flesh and blood wildly gushed out and rapidly grew.

Qin Yu’s pupils shrank. Without time to think about what happened, he raised his hands and thrust his palms forward.

Bang –

There was a heaven-shaking explosion. But the monstrous force of the palm was directly swallowed up by the spatial distortion with no impact on its interior.

At this time, the crazily growing flesh and blood had turned into a new East Capital. His aura was incomparably weak as he glared at Qin Yu with hatred in his eyes. He roared out, “Lost Boundary!”

Before Qin Yu could react, the space around him opened up, turning into a great black mouth that swallowed him whole.

A terrifying tearing strength tore through him. Even with the current intensity of his mortal body he still found this difficult to resist. He could hear the pained groans of his body in his ears.

Qin Yu shouted out loud and two hearts rapidly beat within his chest. Blood energy raced through him and his skin turned red to resist the tearing strength.

He opened his eyes. All he saw was a vast tumbling nothingness all around him. It was like he had been thrown into an underground river, wrapping up in the raging waters as he was pushed forward.

Tapping his foot, Qin Yu shot into the skies. A moment later his complexion changed.

With his speed, let alone being wrapped up by a river, even if he was deep in a sea he would have broken through the surface by now. But even now he was still struck by the turbulent flow all around, its strength not weakening at all.

Qin Yu clenched his teeth and shot in another direction.

An hour later, he came to a stop. His face was dark and gloomy.

He had already tried to flee in different directions but he wasn’t able to escape.

While he could resist the tearing strength all around for a time, if this continued for too long a time, even if he were powerful the only fate left for him was being torn to shreds.

Don’t panic!

Qin Yu took a deep breath, his eyes flashing. He suddenly thought about the words that East Capital roared before he was sucked into this space.

Lost Boundary…

Could it be that this place didn’t truly exist but was something similar to a virtual world?

If it was the past, then with Qin Yu’s level he simply wouldn’t be able to come into contact with this type of information that was controlled by peak powerhouses of the world. But the existence of the jade pendant embryo egg allowed him to gain information that far surpassed his limits, including information related to virtual worlds.

If it really was like this…

A dark golden light surged in the depths of Qin Yu’s eyes. He suddenly gained an aura of mystery and dignity.

He glanced around. Several breaths later, he revealed a happy smile. “As I thought, this is a virtual world!”

In this state, Qin Yu’s eyes pierced through the surface layer of the Lost Boundary, revealing its essence as a ring.

And Qin Yu was currently within this ring. If he couldn’t break through the ring then he would be stranded here forever. After exhausting all his strength, he would be torn to shreds.

As far as what Qin Yu could perceive, the quality of this ring was incomparably high, as if some terrifying strength was supporting it. With his current strength, even if he knew about the existence of the ring he still couldn’t destroy it.

But fortunately, it seemed that in ancient times this ring had undergone a terrifying collision of force, causing its interior to burst and a giant crack to appear.

This was his chance to survive!

Shua –

Qin Yu howled forward. It seemed that he had no goal but he rapidly approached the crack. During this process he constantly adjusted his trajectory, because as time passed the ring itself continually rotated.

It could be said with certainty that if Qin Yu wasn’t able to lock onto the position of the crack at all times and instead tried to rely on his luck alone, then the probability of finding this crack would be near zero.

He arrived, it was here!

Qin Yu came to a stop. Without hesitation, he raised a hand and punched out.

Pa –

There was a ringing sound in the nothingness in front of him. It felt like a great drum had been struck.

In front of Qin Yu, the crack suddenly widened a bit. He could faintly sense the atmosphere coming from the outside world.

As he thought, this crack was connected to the outside!

Bang –

Bang –

Qin Yu punched time and time again. Each fist struck the same place, an area of the ring which had shattered and partly healed over the years.

If it had enough time, then perhaps 100,000 years or a million years later, the ring would be able to restore itself.

But now, beneath Qin Yu’s bombardment, the regenerated surface layer began to break apart and fall off. The aura coming from the outside became increasingly clear and Qin Yu’s speed grew faster and faster.

Finally, as the last fist fell, Qin Yu’s eyes shined bright. He stepped forward and vanished from sight.
