Chapter 192 Herculean Vs Deluge Realm! 1
Chapter 192 Herculean Vs Deluge Realm! 1
A deep, powerful explosion erupted from Yan Zaizen’s body. Every physical cell, every atomized particle in his body, was galvanized to its limits. The vital energy refined by heavenly law liquid emanated intense ripples that caused space itself to bend and fluctuate oddly. With every breath, it was as if the air from his lungs commanded the heavens to submit!
Yu Shi, however, only narrowed his eyes. Yan Zaizen’s vital energy intensity may be powerful, but they barely matched up with a first-floor Heavenly Genesis expert. He didn’t even consider Yan Zaizen a threat. Instead, he motioned towards the others with his right hand.
The twelve Heavenly Genesis experts gathered. They entered an odd formation, their bodies emanated deep and powerful true-essence. Their heavenly shrines radiated iridescent light.
Shriing!
In perfect synchronization, they established a unified manifestation-based qi-art. A gigantic, aquamarine drop of water that could rival a mountain in size was formed. Yu Shi looked at Yan Zaizen with a cold smile. "You overestimate yourself."
He raised his left hand, the frozen rain of the entire realm gathered towards at speeds that rivaled light. In a split second, a condensed drop of water the size of an inch was formulated in his left palm. It fluctuated with such power that the surrounding space trembled.
All the rain left so suddenly that Yan Zaizen was shocked. Looking at that single drop of rain, his instincts trembled with a sensation of a deadly crisis. It exceeded the Heavenly Genesis experts formation by ten times.
"Be careful! There’s a reason why they have the title of Realmlord!" Pinaka warned with haste, "do not hold back!"
Initially, Yan Zaizen felt that after his cultivation session, his strength was enough to rival a Realmlord. After seeing Yu Shi galvanize the realm’s rain, he knew that doing so with just his own cultivation base was unlikely.
However, he had complete confidence in himself. His earlier frustration was only because it was the first time he felt so stifled since the Asura Phantom Realm. His cultivation base still wasn’t sufficient to prevent others from affecting his laws
"Fine." Yan Zaizen calmed himself down, the smile in his eyes faded, replaced by the intense tyranny of an emperor. His Mortal Dao fully erupted. His physical body and vital energy were enhanced to its maximum.

All of his vital energy disappeared. They were directly consumed by his heart. A white flame surrounded by a sky-blue glow shrouded his body. Profound inscriptions formulated on his body. Lifeforce and Soulforce erupted violently from his body.
Yu Shi saw this and coldly snorted. Waving his right hand, a blue light connected with the giant raindrop manifested by the Heavenly Genesis experts. Next, an aquamarine beam of light so thin that it could barely be seen erupted from the six planets and attached to Yu Shi’s back.
His aura erupted. The entire realm shrieked as if crying. The intensity of his true-essence became greater and greater with each second. The power of six planetary formations enhanced Yu Shi’s cultivation base to the extreme.
Yan Zaizen wasn’t going to allow this to continue. With a single step, the surrounding space collapsed. Outer space of the Deluge Realm turned dark and dim, unable to process light or all things. The sheer force of this step caused the realm itself to experience this!
With neared the speed light itself, Yan Zaizen appeared before Yu Shi with his fist shrouded in a flame of pale white. He threw this fist forward with indomitable might.
The Heavenly Genesis experts looked at this with absolute disbelief! This level of power could easily rival a fourth-floor Heavenly Genesis expert!
Yu Shi coldly sneered. Without even moving, the small raindrop in his hand vibrated. It, with its small body, shot towards Yan Zaizen so suddenly that even Yan Zaizen’s eyes widened in disbelief.
"Watch out!" Pinaka screamed.
Boom!
The raindrop, like teleportation, appeared before his chest. It smashed so heavily that the realm and a million li distance shook.
His body was sent flying faster than he originally arrived. Blood mist lingered where he previously was that formulated his previous shape.
A second later, a raindrop appeared in Yu Shi’s left palm.
Yan Zaizen was sent into the border barrier of the Deluge Realm. Yu Shi, to prevent Yan Zaizen’s escape, had already activated the realm’s defensive formation. The aquamarine sun was glowing greatly, obviously feeding this very formation.
Yan Zaizen’s body was covered in deep crimson blood. The raindrop had crushed his bones, mangled his flesh, and caused his skin to explode. A giant dent was formulated at the point of impact.
"I..." Yan Zaizen’s left eye had popped out and turned into mist after the collision. His lower face seemed to have been hit by an explosion and seemed twisted. The disbelief in his remaining right eye was intense.
"..." Pinaka stayed silent. At the moment, anything she could say was irrelevant.
"I see..." Yan Zaizen finally understood a truth: The world’s experts have many, many methods at their disposal. Yu Shi used the realm in its entirety and his forces in unison with his own profound cultivation base.
However, before he could think about this, Yu Shi’s sent the raindrop once more towards Yan Zaizen. His intention was to kill Yan Zaizen, not give him a moment of rest. Ruthlessly, the raindrop appeared before Yan Zaizen.
Doing what he could to defend, Yan Zaizen shifted his left arm to shield.
Boom!
He was sent smashing into the realm shield. His blood could fill a large pool. His left side of his body collapsed. His left arm was nothing but mangled flesh and blood at this point. The only things that remained completely intact were his meridians and organs refined by the heavenly liquid.
The raindrop appeared in Yu Shi’s hand once more.
"I see!" Yan Zaizen’s remaining eye lit up. Taking a deep breath, Yan Zaizen’s body erupted in bright white flame. His previously damaged flesh and missing pieces started to heal and regrow with each blinking moment. In one second time, he recovered completely, but his lifeforce energy was reduced by seventy percent from this.
This was the healing factor of a herculean! If cultivated to a high enough level, returning from a drop of blood was enough! Yu Shi’s eyes widened witnessing this. In truth, he felt the life laws in Yan Zaizen’s aura, but such a fast recovery was nearly impossible with his current vital energy intensity.
Yan Zaizen eyed that raindrop, his mind calculating the time. While doing so, he clenched his fists.
"I’m not strong enough," Yan Zaizen stated calmly. "Physically." Yan Zaizen’s eyes flickered with silver-blue light that seemed to outshine the sun itself. Suddenly, it flashed blood-red. Two stars manifested above his head the size of a small moon, one silver-blue and one blood-red with a hellish aura.
"What?!" Yu Shi questioned his eyes. Two astral stars? However, he didn’t let this affect his mental state no matter how impossible it seemed. The raindrop slightly vibrated.
"Now!" With a vicious stomp of his foot, Yan Zaizen collapsed space but didn’t move. Instead, silver-blue soul energy formulated a barrier around the raindrop that seemed to teleport.
Yan Zaizen realized that the raindrop was indeed teleporting! It penetrated space in a small way as a Heavenly Genesis expert. The formation seemed to be able to hide its presence in a similar way that it hid Yu Shi when he was spying. With this, it prevented spatial movement while enhancing spatial movement of friendlies.
This type of formation was the standard for combat formations - weaken your enemy, create an advantage yourself.
Not only that, the raindrop had a weakness. The raindrop smashed heavily into the soul energy barrier. It halted for one ten-thousandth of a second. This small gap in time was sufficient.
Yan Zaizen stepped forward, his Mortal Dao erupted and focused fully on amplifying his physical body. With his maximum speed, he dashed towards Yu Shi.
Yu Shi’s eyes flashed. As if expecting this, he immediately retreated with his profound movement art. With this, even Yan Zaizen couldn’t catch him in a brief period. However, Yan Zaizen wanted him to retreat.
The raindrop seemed to have a cooldown upon being used, at least a full second before it could return to Yu Shi’s hand. Instead, Yan Zaizen dashed towards the manifested raindrop interconnected to Yu Shi. With one eye silver-blue and one eye blood-red, he looked towards the raindrop.
The group of heavenly experts recognized Yan Zaizen’s attempt and sneered. The drop radiated blue light that seemed intent on outshining the world.
Yan Zaizen was shocked. "It’s a defensive formation and amplifying formation?" He could tell that the light seemed intent on repelling all forms of energy, including soul energy. However, Yan Zaizen’s never wanted to use his soul energy to kill a Heavenly Genesis expert, especially a group working in unison.
His Initial Astral Soul Realm cultivation rivaled first-floor Heavenly Genesis experts. Even if he included his secondary star, Mortal Dao amplification, it still wouldn’t be enough to kill a Heavenly Genesis expert fully focused on defense. At best, he could wound their souls.
No, from start to finish, he was relying on his most powerful cultivation base - his physical cultivation! A Herculean!
He arrived next to the blue light, his eyes flickering with intense light. Suddenly, his white flame started to recede and his lifeforce energy started to recede at an astonishing rate.
"What is he doing?" One of the first-floor Heavenly Genesis experts questioned. However, no one knew.
ROAR!!
Yan Zaizen didn’t physically roar, but a sound thunderously roared causing the heavens to shake in innate fear. This roar was once heard before. It originated from the Asura Phantom Realm. An inky, black shadow that seemed to twist and wreathed around his body.
Before long, the entire raindrop was shrouded by a deep, deep aura of death.
