Chapter 57

"Once the Heavenly Lotus appears, it can destroy the nine heavens!" These words are not false!

Amu also frowned, not expecting Yang Yun to be so deeply hidden. The ice lotuses that filled the sky seemed to scatter like snow, but they were as swift as flying swords, each petal a death warrant from the King of Hell, instantly reaching Amu.

The cold pierced his bones, the wind cut like a knife, and even Amu's immortal bones felt a slight pain.

With a thought, the Black Vine Heaven transformed into a jet of dark light and appeared in Amu's hand.

"One weapon breaks all laws!" Amu still had a trump card. The things left by his master Wang Jue were deeply feared by even Han Qianli, and Amu believed they could break the Heavenly Ice Lotus Platform.

But just then, before Amu could make a move, a bright light suddenly shone from his left arm, and a purple light soared up. Dragon roars and phoenix cries filled the air as an ancient jade bracelet floated above Amu's head, emitting an ancient aura. The purple light spread out from Amu like ripples in water.

It actually stirred the void, hissing and unstoppable!

"Crack—Crack—Crack—"

The sound of countless crystals shattering, white jade-like lotus petals scattered in the sky, like rootless snowflakes or summer fluff, drifting away with the wind.

"The Universe如意Bracelet!" At this moment, an unknown Spirit Realm expert recognized the bracelet.

The Universe如意Bracelet is one of the soul treasures of the Northern Cold Sect. No one expected that besides the Heart-Stabilizing Jade, the Universe如意Bracelet was also in Amu's possession. The Universe如意Bracelet is a soul-level treasure known for its combined offensive and defensive capabilities, and it was now automatically protecting its master.

Although the Heavenly Ice Lotus Platform is a mid-level spirit treasure with great power, its lotus petals could not withstand the might of the Universe如意Bracelet, shattering and retreating like a tide.

The purple light spread like water waves, instantly controlling a hundred-zhang platform, then surged like waves, protecting Amu and firmly pinning Yang Yun to a corner of the platform.

The Northern Cold disciples were stunned, and the Spirit Realm cultivators were deeply shaken. Was this still a battle between a novice and a ninth-stage beginner?

With the soul treasure emerging and overpowering a mid-level soul treasure, this was almost a Spirit Realm battle.

Amu didn't expect the long-dormant Universe如意Bracelet to automatically protect him. It truly lived up to being a soul-level treasure.

"Let it end!" Amu's Black Vine had already been unleashed, and he couldn't retract it. Black qi surged in his eyes, and a killing aura enveloped him.

"Your blood will prove my path!"

Amu fiercely activated the Heavenly Mystic Flying Disc, which transformed into a stream of light, carrying the Universe如意Bracelet straight toward Yang Yun.

At this moment, Yang Yun was terrified, pouring all his cultivation power into the Heavenly Ice Lotus Platform.

The Heavenly Ice Lotus Platform was no ordinary treasure, its light shining brightly like a Buddhist lotus, solemn and majestic, barely holding back the Universe如意Bracelet, preventing the purple light from advancing. After all, the Universe如意Bracelet was not being controlled by someone but was automatically protecting its master.

However, the Heavenly Ice Lotus Platform could not withstand the Black Vine in Amu's hand. The Black Vine automatically drew all the demonic cultivation power from Amu's dantian, emitting a black glow like a black dragon awakening.

The sound of countless battles echoed through the heavens and earth, deafening. At the foot of the Falling Cloud Cliff in broad daylight, it was as if a black lightning bolt had struck the sky, cutting through the sunlight.

"What is that treasure?"

"The power of this treasure is too great!"

"Is that a black dragon?"

At this moment, even the Spirit Realm cultivators felt a soul-shaking tremor, their faces changing except for Han Qianli.

Such a powerful treasure was likely not from the Northern Cold Sect. If the Northern Cold Sect had such a treasure, they would have long dominated the Heavenly Wasteland Sect and the Snowfall Pavilion.

The black glow, like a dragon, cut through the void, and the Heavenly Ice Lotus Platform offered no resistance.

With a loud "Crack," the jade-like lotus petals shattered, and the Heavenly Ice Lotus Platform was split into pieces by the black glow.

"Hmm!" Almost everyone who knew this was a treasure of the Northern Cold Sect twitched their faces, hearts aching.

A mid-level spirit treasure was enough to be the treasure of a second or third-rate sect. The Heavenly Ice Lotus Platform was a treasure among treasures, ranking among the top ten spirit treasures of the Northern Cold Sect. Yet, it was shattered by the black glow from Amu's hand, even Han Qianli grimaced.

This was like burning a lute to cook a crane! This was a waste of a heavenly treasure!

But Amu didn't care. At this level, if a treasure broke, it broke.

"Die!" The black glow in Amu's hand pressed down like a mountain, unstoppable.

"I am not willing—-" Even in his last moment, Yang Yun was unwilling. He was a first-stage great completion cultivator, how could he lose to Amu? But he would never have the chance to discuss this.

Under the Black Vine, there was no soul left, even the soul was sealed, unable to reincarnate.

Amu simultaneously activated the Ten Thousand Demons Transforming Immortal Technique, converting all of Yang Yun's cultivation power into demonic qi and transferring it to his dantian to replenish his losses.

As for Yang Yun's corpse, it turned into black mist and dissipated, even his storage bag was shattered by the Black Vine, and the two mid-level spirit treasures, the flying swords, were nowhere to be found.

The mist and clouds dissipated, the hundred-zhang platform, the Falling Cloud Cliff, and the Northern Cold Sect seemed to be frozen in time.

On the hundred-zhang platform, only Amu stood in his white robe, his black hair flying, his face still filled with killing aura, like a god of death.

In the middle of the hundred-zhang platform, there was a huge crack several zhang deep and dozens of zhang long. The stone platform, brought by Han Qianli with great power, was almost split in two.

After a moment, a wave of sound erupted, and thousands of Northern Cold Sect disciples almost shouted in unison.

A waste of a cultivator, who couldn't cultivate immortal roots, had defeated the first person below the Northern Cold Sect's fixed cultivator, no, accurately, a first-stage great completion fixed cultivator!

A mid-level spirit treasure was shattered into pieces, Yang Yun's everything turned into mist and dissipated, and the mountain-like stone platform was almost split in half!

Was this a novice? Although most still believed Amu's main reliance was the treasure, the discerning eyes could see that Amu was no ordinary novice.

Who would dare call such a novice a waste?

No one expected that this battle, almost between the mundane and the immortal, would end with Yang Yun being reduced to ashes, leaving no corpse.

Amu was truly ruthless!

"Who will fight next?" The Black Vine transformed into a black stream of light and returned to Amu's body, and the Universe如意Bracelet was also retrieved by Amu, but the killing aura around Amu only increased.

"Who will fight next!" The words echoed through the Falling Cloud Cliff, but no one responded.

"Ah—" At this moment, Amu suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, his face pale. The sudden burst of the Black Vine had drained all the demonic power from Amu's dantian, causing him significant injury.

Elder Li and Yang Feng's fellow disciples were stunned for a moment, almost unable to believe it, then their eyes turned red!

"Master, I want to challenge him!" A purple-robed mid-stage fixed cultivator said to Elder Li, about to rush up.

Elder Li immediately pulled him back, shouting, "One Yang Feng went mad, one Yang Yun died, do you want my disciples to die too?"

At this moment, Han Qianli's expression remained as calm as before, without sorrow or joy.

Elder Li naturally understood. Everything Han Qianli did today was to establish Amu's authority, and Yang Yun became the sacrificial offering for Amu.

With the Universe如意Bracelet in Amu's possession and the black glow treasure being heaven-defying, although Amu's true combat strength was unclear and he seemed injured, Elder Li dared not let his disciples challenge him again.

With Han Qianli's clear stance, what more needed to be done? With such a great cultivator who could move mountains and seas, who would dare touch Amu?

At this moment, Bai Yifeng stepped onto the platform, gently touching Amu, then a formidable pressure spread, and he loudly declared, "On the life-and-death platform, Amu wins!"

Bai Yifeng's intention was clear. Anyone who dared challenge Amu would be ruthlessly suppressed by Bai Yifeng.

"Amu wins on the life-and-death platform!" Han Qianli's voice, though faint, echoed in the ears of every Northern Cold Sect disciple, buzzing.

"Amu—" At this moment, Ziyu, Lishui, and Liruo flew to the platform together.

The three were filled with joy and surprise, almost despairing just moments ago.

"Amu, are you okay?" Seeing Amu spit blood, Lishui asked anxiously.

"Overexerted, just a minor injury!" Amu smiled.

Bai Yifeng felt Amu's pulse, confirming that he had indeed suffered some internal injuries, but they were not severe. However, he could not sense any cultivation power in Amu's body, which puzzled him.

Without immortal roots and cultivation power, where did Amu's combat strength come from?

"Thank you, Head Elder Bai!" Amu said sincerely, for Bai Yifeng's intervention during the match and his timely appearance afterward.

Bai Yifeng smiled, "By the order of the Sect Master, I acted fairly. What is there to thank?"

Amu nodded and added, "Without the Heavenly Mystic Flying Disc, I would be helpless. I will never forget the Head Elder's kindness!"

"Ha ha!" Bai Yifeng laughed, looking at Amu with deep meaning but saying nothing more.

At this moment, Han Qianli did not come over but scanned the Northern Cold Sect members again.

"From today, I officially take Amu as a named disciple!" This statement caused another change in the expressions of the Northern Cold Sect members.

Although Amu had defeated Yang Yun, most believed it was due to the power of the treasure. After all, Amu had no immortal roots.

But Han Qianli had taken Amu as a named disciple. In the vast Northern Cold Sect, Han Qianli had only two named disciples.

One was Tieyun, the other was Han Bingyi. But Amu was different. He had once been designated by Han Qianli as a direct disciple, and now taking a step forward, the direct disciple status was not far off.

But Amu had no immortal roots and could not cultivate, which seemed absurd! However, no one dared to object today. Anyone with a brain could sense that the atmosphere was off.

"Congratulations to the Sect Master!" At this moment, the head of the Southern Peak, Mei Wangnan, loudly said. Leading the way, thousands of Northern Cold Sect disciples shouted in unison.

"Congratulations to the Sect Master!" The voices rolled, echoing through the Northern Cold Sect.

"Thank you, Sect Master!" Amu bowed, understanding that Han Qianli was protecting him. The Southern Peak Elder Li's lineage would not let this go, and being a named disciple of the Sect Master was a protective charm.

At this moment, Han Qianli finally showed a slight smile.

"No one else will fight on the life-and-death platform! Everyone, return to your caves and cultivate!" Han Qianli said finally.

Everyone knew the event was over and began to leave.

But just then, a voice suddenly came from the Falling Cloud Cliff.

"I want to fight him—"
