Night Without End-Chapter 817 - 414: Unexpected

Night fog, weeds, the desolate main street, that tall figure stepping on the broken bluestone pavement, walking step by step, carrying a sense of oppression.

"Second brother, you have become distant, a stranger. It’s been years since we parted. I have missed you greatly," Cui Chongxiao spoke peacefully from within the mist, as if reminiscing about old times.

The main street seemed shrouded in his shadow; he was like an abyss, ready to devour everything nearby, even the insects stopped chirping.

Qin Ming once again took out the Divine Measuring Ruler refined from the Nine Lives Tree, driving the Hunyuan Force, putting in all his strength from the start, golden radiance surging, an endless Sword Qi Storm forming!

The mist outside Cui Chongxiao’s body appeared like molten metal, starting to distort and rise, becoming terrifying and unpredictable. He suddenly opened a vertical eye.

A dazzling beam of light flew out from his forehead, slicing through the night sky, clearing the vast Sword Qi Storm, almost scattering it entirely.

His Taoist skills were profound, destroying the boundless sword light with absolute power.

At the same time, the beam of light from his forehead transformed into a massive fist at the front, crystal-clear, wrapped in sacred patterns, pounding towards Qin Ming.

Qin Ming sidestepped, using the Divine Measuring Ruler to deflect the half-human-sized fist. He was absorbing the force, yet his body still shook violently, the Heavenly Light on the ruler almost extinguished.

A Primordial Immortal Lotus emerged, blooming here, its petals scattering, slicing away nine layers of light from the massive fist, shrinking it.

This was a double cultivation killer move—Heavenly Light Planting Immortal Lotus, activated by Qin Ming with the Hunyuan Force.

The lotus petals were like heavenly blades, clashing loudly, drawing radiant light as they flew towards Cui Chongxiao, and suddenly, countless blade lights seemed to rain down.

Outside Cui Chongxiao’s body, divine power boiled like crimson lava, he resembled a god-like creature. In the light mist, he reached out, bursting all the lotus petals amid booming sounds, the blade lights scattering.

Qin Ming’s heart sank; the opponent’s strength was unfathomable, stronger than any young opponent he had ever faced.

Cui Chongxiao opened two fingers on his right hand, reaching through the boiling light mist, crystal clear, the simple yet domineering motion aimed at Qin Ming as if to shear.

As his two fingers came together, it was as if the dragon and tiger merged, accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder, dragon roars, and tiger growls resounded, lightning and thunder split the ruins beneath them trembling.

In Qin Ming’s hand, the Divine Measuring Ruler seemed like nine Golden Crows rising, cutting out dazzling blade lights, precisely the Golden Crow Night Illuminating Saber!

With every move, he used killer moves from various scriptures, propelled by the Primordial Element Heavenly Light, fighting with all his might.

However, the nine Golden Crows were dimming, even exploding. The Sword Intent was collapsing.

"Hmm?" Cui Chongxiao softly murmured; his two fingers were obstructed. Behind the nine Golden Crows, a transformed golden saber appeared, like a resplendent Fierce Sun.

This was the Nine Crows Lifting Blade Technique, an ultimate skill from the Night Illumination Scripture, tremendously difficult to master, which Qin Ming had only recently gained complete comprehension.

Cui Chongxiao’s two fingers glowed, Divine Wisdom boiling, as if cutting out two Order Divine Chains, the night sky seemed to twist and collapse.

The nine crows lifting the blade seemed intent on cutting open the night sky, terrifyingly so.

Simultaneously, behind the golden saber, as radiant as the sun, emerged a formidable Sword Intent, like a line cutting across the vast night sky.

This was the Sword Intent from the "Heaven Cutting Strategy"!

In a blur, as if a torrential rain poured down, an Outer Heaven Light descended, severing the heavens and earth with a single stroke.

Amidst dull sounds, the sword light, finger glow, and others exploded, night fog scattered, nearby broken walls and ruins flew up and then turned to ashes.

Qin Ming’s heart weighed heavily; even after using ultimate skills, he only managed to break one of the opponent’s finger techniques, unable to discern the opponent’s foundation.

During this, Cui Chongxiao actually kept moving forward without a pause, his footsteps rhythm remained consistent, neither rushed nor slow.

"Second brother, you are strong. Among those lower in realm than me, you are the first to escape from the Heavenly God Finger, stronger than I anticipated."

"You’re such a pretender!" Qin Ming retorted, holding the Divine Measuring Ruler. He wondered if the opponent had reached the mid-Fourth Realm; if so, his odds of survival were slim.

So far, he hadn’t faced a Divine Seed of this caliber before. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Cui Chongxiao raised his hand, and with a boom, boundless black cold energy emerged, denser than the night’s darkness, like a substance steaming up from Hell.

Qin Ming continuously changed positions, evading its sharpness.

Cui Chongxiao’s large hand seemed to tear a corner of the Netherworld, spilling out pitch-black fog, entirely engulfing the area.

Qin Ming was frozen, appearing within the massive black ice block.

He emitted a Spirit Field, tearing the Profound Ice, twisting and almost breaking this night sky apart.

However, there, Cui Chongxiao’s black cold fog surged like a waterfall, instantly repairing the ice block; this substance could freeze a person’s soul completely.

Qin Ming’s various spirit fields resonated, and the Nanming Lihuo surged with the Six Ding Divine Fire protecting his consciousness, finally causing the black ice block to explode, shattering in all directions with a roar.

With a hum, the Void seemed to rumble with thunder, the dull roar deafening, around Qin Ming dozens of Divine Rings emerged, All Laws Return to One, the whole world seemed to shake violently.

This method consumed much, and he would not use it lightly.

But now, facing this unfathomable opponent, Cui Chongxiao, he had to fight with everything, or he couldn’t harm the opponent.

"Impressive, is this the strongest Chaos Force you’ve mastered alone? Let me take a closer look," Cui Chongxiao remained calm, the surroundings brightened, as if a Divine Country was unfolding.
