Chapter 211: The power of the Radiant Sun
The sun was blazing high up in the sky.
In a clearing in the woods, Yi Yun stood upright in his linen clothes. His left hand was hanging down, while his right hand held the Thousand Army Saber in a stretched out manner. The blade was parallel to the ground. The saber, that was seven feet two inches long, did not tremble at all. If a bowl full of water was placed on the blade tip, no water would spill out.
Yi Yun maintained this posture for 15 minutes. Standing motionless, he was like a statue.
While Yi Yun stayed motionless, Yi Yun’s body was circulating a tremendous amount of energy, the Radiant Sun Qi was surging like a tsunami.
It was noon and this was the time when the Radiant Sun Qi was most intense.
At this moment, the Sun in the sky moved in a tiny angle, this made the shadows move slightly. The blade of the Thousand Army Saber exited from the shade and it reflected the glare of the Sun, sending off a blinding white flash.
In that split moment, Yi Yun moved!
“Boom!”
The Radiant Sun Qi erupted from Yi Yun’s body, like lava erupting from a volcano. Yi Yun’s body drew out a series of shadows and he charged at a towering cliff in front of him!
Yi Yun’s entire body seemed to be imbued within the blazing Sun and the Thousand Army Saber was sent out with a slash, like a burning flame.
“Swish!”
A bright white flash fell from the sky. It was like a snow white stream of water gushing through the sky!
A thundering sound accompanied the blinding flash. A huge half-moon blade beam was sent out at an incredible speed and it hit the cliff heavily.
“Boom!”
With an intense explosion, the blade beam had totally cut through the cliff! It was a deafening sound!
Ten seconds later, the flash faded away. The cliff in front of Yi Yun was over ten meters tall, but there was now a huge crack, that went from the bottom to the top!
This crack was a foot-wide, and the two sides of the crack had been melted by the high temperature. It had melted into some magma-like substance.
The seven feet two inch long Thousand Army Saber had sliced through a cliff, which was over ten meters tall, with a six feet blade!
This was all due to the Radiant Sun Qi!
With Radiant Sun Qi powering the Thousand Army Saber, its power was incomparable to before.
If this saber were to slice a person, the result was obvious. Those not strong enough would not only be split into two, they might even be reduced to ashes.
Yi Yun suddenly thought of a phrase commonly seen in the legendary novels from his past life, “My saber is not easily drawn, but once it unsheathes, it sees blood.”
This phrase was usually used by main characters to sound cool, but it was perfectly describing Yi Yun now.
As the saber’s power was too great, it was impossible to simply stop at touching. Hence, the moment it was unsheathed, it would see blood. There might not even be blood, since the blood would be burned dry by the Radiant Sun Qi!
“I wonder what level my strength has reached now…”
Having arrived in the Tai Ah Divine City over a month ago, Yi Yun’s strength had increased enormously because of him absorbing the primordial species and primordial herb’s energies and also recently, by learning the ‘Tai Ah Sacred Technique’!
His cultivation level was getting close to the late stages of Purple Blood. This cultivation level speed was going at a tremendous pace.
Yi Yun wanted to test himself against all the top elites from all over the Divine Kingdom.
“I’m really looking forward to the rookie rankings…” Yi Yun said to himself as his fighting spirit burned.
…
At dusk, Yi Yun returned to the Tai Ah Divine City.
In the office, Yi Yun handed over his day’s harvest. They had a total worth of 509 dragon scale runes.
This amount greatly surprised Wang.
“How… did you pick so much?” Yi Yun’s original speed of herb-picking was about 200 dragon scale runes a day. He had not come for the past ten or so days, yet his speed had doubled!
Yi Yun shrugged and said, “I managed to form the Heaven’s eyeball in the past few days, so my perception has become sharper…”
It was really shocking to pick 500 dragon scale runes worth of herbs in a day, but Yi Yun had the perfect explanation now.
But this explanation made Wang even more surprised.
Formed the Heaven’s eyeball?
How old was he!?
Thinking back, when Wang formed the Heaven’s eyeball, she was in the mid-stages of the Yuan foundation realm. It was even further along her cultivation before she was able to completely open Heaven’s Eye.
Wang’s natural talent was not bad, but compared to Yi Yun, the gap was huge.
He was a freak!
Yi Yun could only be described as being a freak. He was not a genius because he was not outstanding; in fact, he was mediocre in some aspects.
But in certain aspects, he had amazing talent!
If this carried on, Wang did not know how far Yi Yun could go. She was l
