I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy

Chapter 2172: Chapter 969: Tao Spirit Resolves the Crisis, Initial Exploration of the Five Domains

Not far from the Tao Spirit, in a No Origin Space, two figures are confronting each other, while a third figure has retreated some distance.

The figures in confrontation are Han Yi and the Ancestral God, and the observer is the Tao God.

In Han Yi’s hand is the Divine Sword of Di Xi, while in the Ancestral God’s hand is a large, pitch-black heavy halberd.

This heavy halberd is the very one Han Yi saw in the Ancestor God Star Core back then.

The Ancestral God is now manifesting a Tao Body here, and his weapon is this heavy halberd, while his true form in the Ancestor God Mansion wields an Eternal Divine Soldier, a giant hammer.

Back then, when Han Yi accompanied the true form of the Ancestral God to encircle and annihilate Burial Calamity in the Daoist Mysterious Chaos Realm, the weapon the Ancestral God used was his true form’s Eternal Divine Soldier.

Right now.

The Ancestral God let out a light shout, and the heavy halberd swung out, smashing straight toward Han Yi.

Since Han Yi has already advanced to Sealed Emperor, a level above him, he did not hold back and went all out right from the start.

Han Yi, however, was not careless. Although he had ascended to the Emperor Level, he still needed to be cautious when facing the Ancestral God, who was extremely experienced in battle and stood at the peak of the Sealed King level.

Gripping Di Xi, Han Yi swung a sword, and the sword intention on the white Divine Sword of Di Xi suddenly surged, transforming into a white sword river that collided with the descending heavy halberd.

The heavy halberd was repelled by this sword, and even the Ancestral God’s body staggered back several dozen steps.

The ripples from the clash between the two spread out, creating invisible undulations.

Han Yi tightened his grip on Di Xi, his expression serious.

Although he had just repelled the Ancestral God with one sword, he indirectly gauged the Ancestral God’s power, which, in terms of pure strength, was indeed not far from the Emperor Level.

With a thought, the Divine Sword in his hand suddenly surged with fighting spirit, and the sword intention trembled forth.

He unleashed the Heavenly River Fighting Saint Technique in the form of sword skills.

By integrating battle techniques into sword skills, he enhanced the might of this sword several times.

With a sword swing, Sword Light blazed and a myriad of changes ensued, directly aiming at the Ancestral God.

The Ancestral God took a deep breath, the heavy halberd moving, impenetrable, shattering the Sword Light, but more and more of it enveloped him, like a fiercely heated berserker, surrounding him alone.

The Ancestral God, seeing this, did not give up. Instead, he took a deep breath, the form of the heavy halberd in his hand changed, becoming as light as a feather, and his figure was no longer majestic but rather ethereal and elusive.

This transformation was something Han Yi witnessed for the first time on the Ancestral God, knowing it to be a combat form of the Ancestral God.

“Good.”

Han Yi lightly shouted, the speed of his sword swings increasing.

In fact, for the moves before, he had only used thirty percent of his strength; seeing the Ancestral God being extremely serious, with fighting spirit further rising, he began to gradually unleash his fighting spirit as well, intending to test the limits of the Ancestral God.

As his invested strength increased, the Sword Light grew stronger and more abundant, and the pressure on the Ancestral God gradually increased.

When Han Yi raised his strength to seventy percent, the Ancestral God finally succumbed, having exhausted all means but unable to escape or fend off Han Yi’s attacks.

Han Yi sheathed his sword and stood calmly.

The Ancestral God, on the other hand, holding the heavy halberd, stood in place, panting heavily, the difference between the two sides obvious.

As an onlooker, the Tao God’s observation was also quite clear; he could tell that Han Yi was holding back the entire time.

“What a thrill, a pure thrill.”

The Ancestral God’s eyes were bright, overflowing with Divine Light, blazing intensely.

Although he had become the Seventh City Lord of Cangyun South City, in reality, the first City Lord at the Sealing Emperor Level only dealt with him in a businesslike manner and naturally wouldn’t give him pointers.

But Han Yi was different; throughout the entire battle just now, Han Yi was giving him pointers.

Thus, when he approaches a breakthrough, finding Han Yi would be more beneficial.

At the time of Tao Spirit’s downfall, neither the Tao God nor the Ancestral God had been born yet, and when they gradually achieved Tao, the strongest Eternal Cultivators of the Tiaoist Spirit Chaos World were also just at the Sealed King level and were continuously sealed outside, or like the Ruins Master Realm Venerable, unwilling to return.

Therefore, these years, the Tiaoist Spirit Chaos World had been carried forward together by the Tao God and Ancestral God, and now with the more powerful Han Yi appearing, they finally breathed a sigh of relief in that instant.

Additionally.

In their view, the attempts over these Chaos Epochs have not been fruitless, as Han Yi appeared indirectly because of their attempts.

Moments later.

The three returned to the Tao Spirit, stopping near the Great Wilderness Dao Palace.

“I will leave a Tao Body here; if Emperor Li Tian truly comes, it can hold off until my true form arrives.”

“You need not worry; my true form is in the Tianhe Chaos Realm, not far away.”

Han Yi spoke.

The Tao God and Ancestral God nodded upon hearing this.

“Thus, we rely on you, Daoist.” The Tao God clasped his hands in a gesture of respect.

This gesture was exceptionally formal, representing not just the Tao God but the entire Tiaoist Spirit Chaos World, in gratitude for Han Yi’s protection.

“That Emperor Li Tian has returned to the Demon Star Sea; already over ten Chaos Epochs have passed, and during this time there’s been no further news from them. Perhaps we need not worry excessively.” The Ancestral God said solemnly.

His information came from Cangyun South City, more accurate than that of the Tao Spirit and Han Yi.

In recent years, while Han Yi’s Ten Thousand Nether Tower’s intelligence-gathering range had expanded, the level of information involved had not improved; instead, due to Han Yi’s focused seclusion, it did not go beyond the Eternal level.

However, he has another channel, that of the Cangyun Divine Envoy, whose avatar still resides in the Cangyun Divine Sea.
