Chapter 522: Da Yanluo Dharma Body vs Heavenly Ghost Dharma Body

Ten times.

Continuously expanding upward.

It kept growing until it was over twenty times larger, the Yin Gui Zhenren, as giant as a colossus, displayed his Yin Gui Dharma Body, the Da Yanluo Body.

A single fang, a blue face, and two horns sprouted on his forehead—those are the newly born horns of the Ghost King.

All around him swirled a layer of ghost qi, the condensed ghost qi, like dark clouds, drifting about his body.

Layer upon layer, Yin Gui Zhenren exhaled, the ghost qi was chilling, like ten thousand Yin Gui howling in fury.

He looked up, those blood‑red eyes fixed on the Heavenly Ghost True Person.

"Yin Gui Blade — Break Mountain."

One slash, mountain shattered.

This is one of the Blade Art divine skills, the Yin Gui Blade's sword technique, which Yin Gui Zhenren has comprehended.

Combined with the Da Yanluo Body, its power increased by hundreds of times.

Blade qi, like a mountain range, covered the whole sky; the ghost clouds hovering over the Yin Gui Sect vanished in an instant.

The Heavenly Ghost True Person's body showed cracks, as if about to shatter.

His arm split in two; the Heavenly Ghost True Person took a deep breath, ghost qi surged into his body, and in an instant the wound healed and the fissure vanished.

The arm returned, rejoining his limb.

"Da Yanluo Dharma Body, I didn't expect you to have mastered this divine skill, Yin Gui Zhenren; you truly keep astonishing this seat."

"Within the Yin Gui Sect, that impossible-to-cultivate Dharma Body divine skill, touted as the strongest Dharma Body skill in the sect, condenses Da Yanluo, transforms into Da Yanluo—this is your confidence, and also the killing move prepared for me, right?"

The Da Yanluo Body is a Dharma Body skill not favored within the Yin Gui Sect; no Yin Gui Sect disciple practices it.

Because they cannot cultivate it.

This divine skill has flaws.

A serious flaw: once cultivated, one becomes a madman, gradually replaced by Da Yanluo, becoming Da Yanluo's avatar.

"Hmph, to kill you I scoured the entire Yin Gui Sect and finally found this Dharma Body skill."

"Your Heaven's Will Blade cannot cut the Da Yanluo Dharma Body."

"Yet I can slay you."

The Yin Gui Blade expanded, covering layer upon layer of ghost qi.

He stared at the Heavenly Ghost True Person; his massive body stirred wind and clouds.

The Heavenly Ghost True Person dodged swiftly; he snorted coldly, "The Dharma Body divine skill is not yours alone."

"Yin Gui Sect divine skill, Heavenly Ghost Body."

His body swelled along with it.

In less than a few breaths, it had expanded twentyfold.

Nearly as massive as Yin Gui Zhenren, though his appearance differed.

A single‑horned Heavenly Ghost, black face with fangs, the snarling fangs covering half his face.

A head of red hair, drifting like a ghost.

Behind him, bone spines protruded, upon which countless wronged souls clung.

Heavenly Ghost Dharma Body, the Heavenly Ghost True Person's Dharma Body divine skill.

"Heavenly Ghost Great Palm."

Right hand grasps the blade, left hand extends a palm.

The divine skill comes to seize.

Heaven and earth stilled.

That hand came before his eyes; Yin Gui Zhenren clenched his fist.

"Yin Gui Destruction Fist."

"Bang."

The Dharma Body battle raised waves that flung everything away.

The Yin Gui Sect's Formation trembled, about to collapse.

Those below knelt one after another.

Some fell flat on the ground.

Three Elders stood close together, staring at the two figures in the sky.

"Da Yanluo Dharma Body, Heavenly Ghost Dharma Body, both are top‑tier Dharma Bodies within the Yin Gui Sect."

"Sect leader?"

The four Elders were somewhat worried; the sect leader's condition was not as good as the Heavenly Ghost True Person's.

This divine skill is incomplete.

Its side effects are severe.

Continued confrontation may cause the sect leader to be defeated.

"Elder Four, we must go assist; we cannot let the sect leader fight alone."

"Elder Six worries: 'The Heavenly Ghost True Person is powerful; after years of accumulation, his true qi cannot be matched by the sect leader.'"

The old monster Heavenly Ghost True Person has many controlling methods, and he also knows the weakness of the Da Yanluo Body.

Sure enough, he targeted the Da Yanluo Body's weak point.

Left hand projected a palm, right hand produced a blade.

The Heaven's Will Blade swung, another divine skill was unleashed.

"Slash Immortal."

The second divine ability of the Heavenly Intent Blade Technique is Slay Immortal.

Slaying ghosts and immortals is the blade of killing intent.

«Part the sea. »

Yin Gui Zhenren is no weaker; a backhand strike is just a single blade.

Divine abilities clash, the two dharma bodies collide.

A sonic boom rang out around them, the earth shattered.

The sky twisted.

Ghostly qi threw the surroundings into chaos; the heavenly and earthly spiritual qi fell into utter disorder.

This is what a true strong one's battle looks like; this scene left every spectator terrified.

Xinran Zhanglao saw this, right hand gripping the sword hilt, ready to strike at any moment.

His body was filled with sword qi, building up.

Waiting for an opportunity.

«Yin Gui Zhenren is no ordinary cultivator; even the Great Yama Body can be successfully cultivated, though it seems there is a problem. »

«His condition is somewhat off; forcing its activation. »

«If he continues, he will surely lose. »

In contrast, Tian Gui Zhenren has no weakness.

Although the Tian Gui Body falls short of the Great Yama Body, this Tian Gui Body divine ability is a complete dharma body, free of side effects.

Tian Gui Zhenren has cultivated for many years, having long mastered this divine ability.

Prolonged combat is disadvantageous to Yin Gui Zhenren; he cannot think of a way to break the situation, and will likely die here.

The Yin Gui Sect's internal strife cannot end with the defeat of Yin Gui Zhenren.

«However, Tian Gui Zhenren seems not to have fully recovered; his movements are hesitant. »

«His injuries have worsened. »

«It seems the injuries from years ago have not healed. »

Back then, Tian Gui Zhenren attacked the Heavenly Heart Sect, triggering a battle in which he was wounded.

He has been hiding in the Yin Gui Sect to heal his wounds, and consequently the Yin Gui Sect withdrew from the territory of the Great Qi Dynasty.

That battle was earth-shattering, far more desperate than today's fight.

«Yin Gui Zhenren is not without opportunity. »

Jing Yuheng stared at Yin Gui Zhenren, his expression grave.

«The Yin Gui Sect is not as weak as we thought. »

«Indeed, these sects cannot be underestimated. »

The White Wolf Vice Hall Master chimed in: «Indeed, the Yin Gui Sect, Heavenly Heart Sect, and Spirit Sword Sect—none can be underestimated. »

«These sects all know how to conceal themselves; they won't appear until a critical moment. »

«Tian Gui Zhenren's strength is the pinnacle of this world; only a handful can harm him. »

Even the strongest among the Black Dragon Guard may not be able to break his defenses.

Don't even speak of killing him.

Their Black Dragon Guard's strength is ultimately too weak.

Longshe Shan.

Chen Chuyang gazed smilingly at Tianlian Zhenren; she also sensed that ghostly qi.

The terrifying energy fluctuations affected even this place.

The vibrations were obvious; the heavenly and earthly spiritual qi were thrown into disorder.

Tianlian Zhenren said: «Tian Gui Zhenren is not easy to deal with; his strength, his might, cannot be overcome by Yin Gui Zhenren. »

«The Yin Gui Sect is ultimately Tian Gui Zhenren's Yin Gui Sect; no one can change that. »

«Chen Chuyang, fellow cultivator, you wouldn't actually want to intervene, would you? »

Chen Chuyang tilted his head, staring at Tianlian Zhenren.

«How can you tell I will intervene? »

Tianlian Zhenren speculated: «I know Yin Gui Zhenren came to visit you; I suppose you reached some agreement. »

«Chen Chuyang, fellow cultivator, please do not act, do not interfere in the Yin Gui Sect's battle. »
