Chapter 37: Surrender, or Die?

~8 min read 1,461 words

Wang Jianqiang's voice was infused with Spiritual Power, raging outward.

After shaking back the woman's Flying Sword, it did not dissipate, but instead seemed endless, continuing to sweep outward.

The woman's expression changed, and she retreated more than ten zhang in succession.

"This guy..."

At this moment, the ease and playfulness on her face were gone, replaced by deep gravity.

Before entering the Secret Realm, under Elder Song's reminder, she had already memorized the top ten Outer Sect disciples of the other Three Great Factions.

This person was clearly not among them, so why was his strength so formidable!

Hum~

While the woman was stunned.

Wang Jianqiang's attack descended once more.

A verdant light enveloped the woman, and a sword array formed instantly, trapping her within.

The woman's expression changed, and she controlled her Flying Sword to attack the sword array.

Boom!

The sword array merely trembled slightly, then immediately calmed down.

"So sturdy!"

The woman's expression changed, and she attacked again.

The array remained completely undamaged.

At this moment, a look of horror finally appeared on her face.

After trapping the woman with the Wood Sword Array, Wang Jianqiang stopped paying attention to her.

His figure flickered, and he caught Wang Yu Yao, who was about to fall to the ground.

"Senior Brother..."

Seeing Wang Jianqiang, Wang Yu Yao squeezed out a smile on her bloodless face.

But she was injured far too heavily.

Just those two words leaving her lips agitated her injuries.

A large mouthful of blood sprayed out, and then her consciousness went black, and she fell into a coma.

Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted, and he tapped his fingers on several acupuncture points on her body.

The remaining, unconsumed medicinal power of the Blood Explosion Pill in Wang Yu Yao's body immediately dissipated, and her hair color returned to black.

He checked Wang Yu Yao's injuries again, and his heart sank.

Wang Yu Yao was already severely injured.

Having taken the Blood Explosion Pill, it was an injury upon an injury.

Her body had reached the verge of collapse.

He hurriedly took out a Perfect Earth Yellow Pill and fed it to her.

He tapped his finger on her chest, and Spiritual Power entered her body to help her refine the medicinal power.

For injuries of this degree, an ordinary Earth Yellow Pill would naturally be powerless, but a Perfect Earth Yellow Pill could still have some effect.

As the medicinal power dissolved, her injuries were finally suppressed.

Wang Jianqiang breathed a sigh of relief, fed her another Perfect Earth Yellow Pill, let the medicinal effect take its course, and turned his gaze toward the woman in the Wood Sword Array.

He recognized this woman.

A disciple of Xuanqing Palace, fourth in the Outer Sect, Ye Qingxue.

Just then, he suddenly heard the sound of something piercing through the air from afar.

He turned his head to look.

At the edge of his vision, five figures were approaching rapidly.

In a short moment, they appeared on the battlefield.

When the five saw the woman trapped in the Wood Sword Array, they were all startled.

"Senior Sister Qing Xue is trapped, quickly help her escape!"

Before the words had even faded, they immediately attacked the Wood Sword Array.

Seeing reinforcements arrive, the woman in the Wood Sword Array felt her spirits lift.

She coordinated with the reinforcements outside the array to attack the Wood Sword Array together.

Boom!

The Wood Sword Array trembled, and then several cracks appeared on it.

"The array is cracking, let's break it in one go!"

All six were delighted.

Just as they were preparing to continue their attack, a green light flashed on the Wood Sword Array, and all the cracks vanished.

The six froze.

"This array has extremely strong recovery capabilities; forcing our way through is somewhat unrealistic," Ye Qingxue said gravely.

Hearing this, the five seemed to think of something, and their gazes shifted to Wang Jianqiang.

"This array was cast by him; kill him, and the array will break on its own."

One person said sinisterly.

"Good idea!"

The eyes of the other four lit up.

The next moment, the five charged out simultaneously, filled with murderous intent.

Seeing the five people charge toward Wang Jianqiang, Ye Qingxue's expression flickered, but she did not stop them.

Among the five, two were ranked in the top ten of the Xuanqing Palace Outer Sect, and while the other three were not in the top ten, they were still ranked within the top twenty.

With the five of them joining forces, their strength was not necessarily weaker than hers.

Although this old fellow was strong, he still had to divide his attention to maintain the Array; she did not believe he could contend with all of them at once.

Seeing the five figures attacking, Wang Jianqiang's expression remained calm.

"The tenth and eighth of the Xuanqing Palace Outer Sect, plus three small fries who didn't even make it into the top ten~."

"Today, you have brought the path of death upon yourselves."

Wang Jianqiang clenched his palm.

Golden sword Qi emerged, but it did not merge into the void.

Instead, it condensed upon his fist.

At this moment, his fist was a Gold Sword Array!

Boom!

The void exploded with a sound.

As the golden sword Qi raged, the five figures spat blood wildly and flew backward at an even faster speed.

"Impossible!"

Seeing this scene, Ye Qingxue's face was filled with disbelief.

Immediately after, she seemed to think of something, and a flash of horror crossed her face, "Run quickly, this person cannot be fought; he has already reached the Spirit Power Three-Turn Realm!"

Spirit Power Three-Turn Realm!

Hearing Ye Qingxue's words, the five were shocked and terrified.

Without hesitation, they turned and fled.

On the other side, Wang Jianqiang was stunned.

He had never heard of the Third Turn Realm and was somewhat confused about what this realm actually was.

However, seeing the five about to escape, he could only temporarily suppress his confusion.

He threw a punch.

Countless golden sword Qi shot toward the five like a torrential downpour, and in an instant, they were completely submerged.

The five tried their best to resist.

But alas, there was simply too much sword Qi, and in the end, they could not block it.

One by one, their bodies were pierced through by the sword Qi.

A moment later.

When the golden sword Qi dissipated, all five were dead.

Wang Jianqiang opened his palm, and the sword array on his fist dissipated.

His gaze shifted and returned to the Wood Sword Array.

He pointed at the Wood Sword Array.

The Earth Sword Array and the Wood Sword Array merged.

In an instant, the gravity within the formation surged violently.

Ye Qingxue let out a cry of alarm and was pressed directly onto the ground, unable to move.

Wang Jianqiang took a step and walked into the sword array.

Looking at Ye Qingxue, who was pinned to the ground, he said indifferently, "Tell me, what is the Spirit Power Three-Turn?"

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Ye Qingxue was stunned.

He didn't know about the Spirit Power Three-Turn Realm?

Could it be that he wasn't in the Third Turn Realm?

But if he wasn't, why was he so strong?

"Speak!"

Seeing that Ye Qingxue did not respond, a trace of impatience flashed across Wang Jianqiang's face.

Feeling the coldness emanating from Wang Jianqiang, Ye Qingxue trembled and hurriedly began to explain.

Not long after.

A look of sudden realization appeared on Wang Jianqiang's face.

The Spirit Power Three-Turn Realm was not actually a realm, but a stage leading toward Foundation Establishment.

So-called Foundation Establishment, simply put, was the conversion of gaseous Spiritual Power into liquid Spiritual Power.

After a Cultivator reached the Qi Refining Consummation, if they wanted to reach Foundation Establishment, they had to compress their Spiritual Power.

Each compression counted as one turn.

Once they underwent four compressions, the Spiritual Power could be completely liquefied, which also represented the Cultivator leaping like a fish into a dragon, completely transforming into a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Therefore, the Third Turn Realm was the limit below Foundation Establishment.

Those who could reach this realm were, without exception, figures standing at the very pinnacle of the Qi Refining Stage.

He had previously been confused as to why Ye Lingyun, Bai Xiruo, and Mu Lingxi were so much stronger than ordinary Cultivators, despite all being at Qi Refining Consummation.

Now, he finally understood.

They must have all embarked on the path of compressing their Spiritual Power.

After resolving the confusion in his heart, Wang Jianqiang looked at Ye Qingxue.

A flash of killing intent crossed his eyes.

"Now I will only give you two paths."

"Submit, or... die!"
