Chapter Fourteen: The Starry Domain

  Shen Bao and Qin Yu transformed into two black shadows, exchanging blows at incredible speed.

  "Pong!" "Pong!" "Pong!" "Pong!"...

  Each time they clashed, a deafening sound shook the sky. The two figures sometimes soared into the air and sometimes fought on the ground. As their afterimages faded away, the giant trees in the forest fell one by one with a loud crash.

  "Cheers!"

  Qin Yu threw a straight punch, piercing the air and striking directly at Shen Bao's chest. Shen Bao's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and his entire body easily dodged to the side, momentarily creating several residual shadows. Qin Yu's fist heavily struck the giant tree behind Shen Bao.

  The giant tree trembled slightly, but there was no major damage.

  Suddenly——

  Pong!

  It was as if a bomb had exploded, and the giant tree, which was tens of meters high, suddenly disintegrated into countless pieces of wood, as if it had been completely pulverized. Each piece of wood was no larger than the palm of one's hand, and the entire tree was transformed into countless fragments that flew in all directions.

  Shen Bao's body flashed twice, then retreated a hundred meters, and afterwards stood in mid-air staring at Qin Yu.

  Qin Yu was also staring at Shen Bao without moving.

  "This guy hasn't even transformed into the true form of Black Wind Leopard yet, and his speed is already on par with mine. Once he transforms, his speed will increase again. Then I'll really be no match for him." Qin Yu's breath was completely locked onto Shen Bao in front of him, but in his heart, he was thinking of ways to deal with this Black Wind Leopard.

  In terms of speed, Qin Yu is at a disadvantage and is even at a disadvantage.

  Qin Yu's eyes suddenly lit up, and a hint of a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Right, Hei Feng Bao excels in speed, and although his strength is not bad, it's still far from being able to compare with his speed. And my own strength, combined with the power of the stars, is actually even more powerful than his!"

  Shen Bao took a glance at the completely shattered wood and sneered, "Indeed, you have some strength, no wonder you were able to kill my third brother. However... with just this level of strength, you're not my match." Although Shen Bao said so with his mouth, in reality he was also shocked by Qin Yu's powerful punch from earlier.

  If Qin Yu's punch had landed on Shen Biao just now, Shen Biao would have been seriously injured or even killed.

  "Don't talk big, true heroes show their strength through actions." Qin Yu had already guessed what the other person was thinking, and it seemed that Shen Bao also discovered Qin Yu's incredible power.

  Since it is so, we should certainly emphasize our strong points and avoid our weak ones.

  Qin Yu shot towards Shen Bao again like a swift arrow, at first glance Qin Yu seemed to be following a straight trajectory, but upon closer inspection it could be seen that as he flew his body was lightly and naturally swaying.

  Flying without a sound!

  In almost an instant, Qin Yu appeared before Shen Bao.

  "Wind? You think you can control the wind and compare to our Black Wind Leopard?" Shen Bao said with a smile, his body easily dodging Qin Yu's attack with a slight swaying motion... without making any sound of the wind!

  "What?!"

  Qin Yu's expression changed, and Shen Bao was actually able to move with the wind just like himself, unaffected by even a hint of resistance.

  A sharp and shrill eagle's cry pierced through the sky.

  "What's wrong with Xiao Hei?" Qin Yu's figure quickly retreated, and his spiritual awareness range was extremely large, completely seeing the scene of Xiao Hei and Shen Yu's battle clearly. At this moment, Shen Bao also stopped fighting, he too noticed his second brother's condition.

  "Ahhh~~~~"

  Shen Yu transformed into a black wind leopard, with the blue stripes on his back emitting a faint glow. At this moment, Shen Yu's entire body hair stood upright, and his leopard eyes stared at Xiao Hei, growling continuously without attacking.

  "Hoo-hoo~~~"

  Little Black unfolded his massive wings, and the black feathers shone with a cold light like icy steel. At the same time, flashes of lightning flickered across his entire plumage, and flames rose from all over Little Black's body, stunning everyone with its powerful aura.

  The black leopard kept growling, its fur standing on end and quivering.

  "Wow~~"

  A piercingly loud voice came out of Xiao Hei's mouth, directly stimulating everyone's ears, including Qin Yu who felt his heart tremble. Seeing this scene, he knew that Xiao Hei had completely gone mad. Xiao Hei's wings shook and it actually charged straight into the sky.

  Suddenly——

  Bolts of lightning shot out from Xiao Hei's body, and for a moment, he transformed into a god of thunder. Countless bolts of lightning were emitted from his body, directly striking the Black Wind Leopard below.

  That black leopard was moving at an incredible speed, but the lightning was too fast and there were too many of them. Bolt after bolt struck the black leopard, which let out a pained yelp before suddenly leaping up into the air.

  Little Black's mouth opened wide——

  A massive ball of lightning burst out at high speed, and in the center of the ball of lightning was a flash of electricity. The amount of electricity contained in this flash of electricity was strong enough to be terrifying. On the periphery of this flash of electricity were flames burning fiercely. What's most strange is that this flash of electricity and these flames seemed to be one entity.

  "Heavens, just how powerful is this energy?! If I were to be hit by it, even I would be severely injured and done for." Qin Yu's mind was shocked, and at the same time, he felt that this little black thing was becoming increasingly unfathomable, "This little black thing is also too formidable, isn't it?"

  That ball of lightning shot down towards Hei Feng Bao.

  Hei Feng Bao suddenly transformed into a phantom form and easily dodged the incoming thunderfire, then bit towards Xiao Hei.

  Pong!

  That ball of lightning that had been dodged suddenly turned around and struck the Black Wind Leopard, producing a strong shockwave and a mournful howl. Qin Yu smelled the scent of burnt fur.

  "Second brother!"

  Shen Bao saw Shen Yu severely injured, and suddenly became anxious. His body shape directly rushed towards Xiao Hei, and in the process of flying, he actually transformed into a black wind leopard. And in Qin Yu's mind, Xiao Hei's voice suddenly sounded.

  "Big brother, hurry up and stop him, I've already used up half of my energy."

  "Not good!"

  Qin Yu only now realized that Xiao Hei's release of that shocking bolt of energy wasn't without cost. At this moment, Qin Yu couldn't care about anything else!

  The illusory pale silver star power instantly spread around Qin Yu, forming a nebula-like shape, and rapidly rotating. In an instant, Qin Yu seemed to be completely connected with the heavens and earth, and his speed suddenly increased.

  "Looking for death!"

  A fierce glint flashed in Qin Yu's eyes.

  "Ahhh~~~" The black wind leopard, transformed from Shen Bao, let out a loud roar and charged at Xiao Hei. However, before Shen Bao even attacked, Xiao Hei's wings had already flapped once, charging towards Qin Yu's direction. The black wind leopard seemed to have made an empty attack, continuing to charge at Xiao Hei.

  "Big brother, it's up to you now!"

  Xiao Hei's voice echoed in Qin Yu's mind, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

  "Master, he was able to kill a Nascent Soul stage expert and several Loose Immortals, as well as dozens of Tribulation and Void Spirit stage experts when he had just reached the Tribulation period. As his disciple, if I can't even kill a Golden Core stage demon beast, I might as well die!"

  The power of the stars spreads around Qin Yu, and the scattered area is where Qin Yu's attack is strongest. Within this range, Qin Yu's speed becomes even faster.

  "Ahhh~~"

  The black leopard bared its teeth and pounced on Qin Yu, while its claws also swiped at him. Qin Yu's hands, clad in the Blazing Fist gauntlets, were also shaped like claws and clashed hard with the black leopard's claws.

  "Idiot!"

  Qin Yu's right hand suddenly grasped the leopard's claw, and the power of the stars as well as his powerful physical strength burst forth. All that could be heard was a "crack" as the sound of bones shattering, and one of the leopard's paws was directly crippled by Qin Yu.

  The leopard is in a hurry!

  "Ahhh~~" It let out a loud, crazy howl, and suddenly the sharp bone spurs on its four claws shot out like arrows, Qin Yu had not expected that the black wind leopard's claw bone spurs could launch a detached attack.

  "Not good!"

  Qin Yu's face changed greatly, one hand grasping the black wind leopard's sharp claws, at this moment it can be said that he and the black wind leopard were in close proximity, this man and beast were really too close, Qin Yu even if discovered, fundamentally came not to dodge.

  "Pffft!" "Pffft!"

  Qin Yu's body burst forth with the power of the stars, and he shot off to the side like an arrow. Even though he dodged quickly, two bone spurs still pierced his body, one entering his left arm and another piercing between his ribs.

  "Pffft!"

  Qin Yu spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, although his physical body was strong enough to rival that of a spiritual artifact, but the final attack from the Black Wind Leopard's bone spur was simply too powerful! The Black Wind Leopard's bone spur was naturally produced by its body, and once it broke off during an attack, it would take tens or even hundreds of years for it to regrow.

  That black leopard suddenly transformed from a leopard's appearance into a human appearance.

  Shen Bao glared fiercely at Qin Yu: "Cut off one of my claws, forcing me to shoot out four bone spurs. If I don't kill you and swallow your Golden Elixir, how can I dispel the hatred in my heart?" Shen Bao was also helpless, with one claw cut off, he couldn't maintain his original speed even if he kept his Black Wind Leopard form.

  Qin Yu suddenly pulled out the bone spurs embedded in his chest and left arm. Fortunately, his body was strong enough, and the bone spurs did not penetrate too deeply; if they had pierced a few more inches into his chest, they would have damaged his internal organs.

  Qin Yu immediately sealed the acupoints and cut off the flow of blood in his veins.

  "Big brother." Little Hei's voice rang out.

  Qin Yu stretched out his hand to stop him, saying: "Don't bother me, mom's, if I don't kill this beast, my cultivation will be in vain. Let's go all out!!!" Qin Yu's eyes showed a faint red color, and his whole body had a fierce and ferocious aura, like a wounded lone wolf that became even more frenzied after being injured.

  Feeling the meteor's tears flowing and turning at the wound, Qin Yu's mouth corner couldn't help but have a hint of cold smile.

  "What's wrong, Shen Bao?" Qin Yu's eyes were fixed on Shen Bao, and at this moment, the wound on his left arm was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Generally, as long as it wasn't a fatal injury, flesh wounds would heal extremely quickly.

  "Let you feel the power of the starry domain!" The pale silver star power on Qin Yu's body rotated rapidly, and the star cloud in his dantian also rotated rapidly. Each silver particle emitted a brilliant light.

  The power of the stars reached its peak in an instant, filling every part of Qin Yu's body.

  "What?!"

  Shen Bao didn't understand what Qin Yu meant, but Qin Yu had already rushed over at high speed. Shen Bao coldly smiled as he looked at Qin Yu, for earlier he had seen the bone spike pierce into Qin Yu's chest, clearly severely injuring him.

  "Die!"

  Qin Yu suddenly let out a loud roar, and in an instant, Qin Yu's entire person transformed into six or seven phantoms.

  Within the range of the nebula vortex formed by the power of the pale silver star, six or seven Qin Yu appeared around Shen Biao, sometimes with a single hand transformed into an iron fist, sometimes with a single hand transformed into a palm knife, sometimes with a probing hand transformed into a steel claw, and sometimes with fingers joined together to form a finger sword.

  "Bang!" The fist seemed to have traversed time, directly striking Shen Bao's chest, and a loud explosion sounded as a hole appeared.

  "Pffft!" The sword pierced through Shen Bao's right palm.

  "Crack!" The steel claw snapped Shēn Biāo's spine.

  ……

  United in spirit.

  Qin Yu seemed to have never moved, staring at Shen Bao. Shen Bao, however, stared back at Qin Yu with wide eyes: "This... what kind of speed is this?" The speed that Shen Bao had been so proud of was completely powerless against Qin Yu's attack just now.

  "Dying under the starry sky, you can be proud of yourself too."

  Qin Yu didn't even look at Shen Biao, only hearing a series of crackling sounds. Shen Biao's entire body was shattered, and he immediately fell to the ground paralyzed, then began convulsing continuously, bleeding from all seven orifices in his head, still muttering softly: "Stellar... Domain..."

  Then there was no sound, and as for Shen Yu, he had already been killed by Xiao Hei.

  Qin Yu's face suddenly turned bright red, and his body seemed to be rebelling. A mouthful of fresh blood surged up from inside him and into his throat, and Qin Yu was completely unable to control it, spitting it out directly from his mouth. Afterwards, he sat down cross-legged on the ground.

  "Big brother!"

  Xiao Hei's wings fluttered and he rushed to Qin Yu's side.

  "It's fine, I can only be considered as the pre-stage of Star Cloud now. The deployment of the Star Domain is still not enough, and it will be almost done after I rest for half a time." Qin Yu's spiritual sense transmission was finished, and he quietly adjusted the chaotic energy inside his body.

  Stellar Domain, a advanced cultivation method that belongs to the "Tongtian Three Diagrams" after reaching its peak. When the three-colored armor of the Tongtian Three Diagrams enveloped Qin Yu, his speed also increased several times; this Stellar Domain is based on the same principle.

  It's just more powerful and faster.

  Half an hour later.

  "Big brother, two golden pellets." Xiao Hei placed the two golden pellets in front of Qin Yu, who opened his eyes and directly took one of the golden pellets. Then he said, "Xiao Hei, the energy of a late-stage Golden Pellet is eight or nine times that of an early-stage Golden Pellet. I'll take one, you take one."

  Xiao Hei looked at the remaining one and immediately transmitted his voice urgently: "Big brother, I've already eaten that Shen Yi's Golden Elixir, I said the rest are all yours."

  "I'll only refine one, the difference between the early and late stages of the Golden Elixir can be ignored. If you don't want it, just throw it away." Qin Yu said, then directly started refining the Golden Elixir, completely ignoring Xiao Hei.

  Xiao Hei's eagle eyes stared at Qin Yu for a long time before he finally put away that golden elixir.
