Chapter 187 Refining the Dao Domain to Battle the Waters of Lai Miao



"Are you really playing such a fancy game?"

Yu Qingtan was at a loss for words. She was only clad in a dress, beneath which was the dragon scale soft armor and her underwear.

Though referred to as armor, the dragon scale soft armor was extremely thin and flexible, nearly indistinguishable from a base layer once worn.

Little did she know that an entity of All-Under-Heaven Peak considered her attempt to comprehend three paths while merely at the Foundation Establishment stage to be overestimating her own ability, thus this predicament.

Somewhere on the chessboard, a black piece appeared, and in another spot, Yu Qingtan deployed her spiritual power to manifest a white piece.

The two sides began their game.

Before long, Yu Qingtan realized her opponent wasn't very skilled. She didn't dare to be careless, playing steadily and soon secured the victory.

The chessboard disappeared, and Yu Qingtan continued upwards.

This time, she climbed a hundred steps before the chessboard appeared again.

After a few rounds, Yu Qingtan felt that the opponent resembled a low-level artificial intelligence. After each game, she carefully reviewed it in her mind, analyzing the other side's moves.

Even so, by the thirtieth game, Yu Qingtan was still feeling a great deal of pressure.

Her pace slowed down, but fortunately, the opponent did not urge her. Yu Qingtan even took out her Roaming Zither to play the Soul Cleansing melody for herself, using the Soul Cleansing Technique to keep her mind clear.

With this, Yu Qingtan barely managed to win, and simultaneously, illusions of battling armies appeared around her. However, this time, the illusions were controlled by her, the beginnings of her Chess Domain.

Opening her eyes, Yu Qingtan stepped onto a platform.

On the platform was a table with three cups of tea set out.

"Enlightenment Tea!"

True Lord Changwan and others had thoroughly briefed Yu Qingtan about the basics of All-Under-Heaven Peak, so she knew this was the reward for the first segment.

Yu Qingtan drank the first cup of Enlightenment Tea, and immediately her mind was filled with various insights into the Path of Water. She promptly sat cross-legged, took out her Canglan Umbrella, and closed her eyes to deeply comprehend.

A complete water domain formed, with water blades crisscrossing with water curtains within the domain and Yu Qingtan's figure moving about in the water domain using Water Escape Technique, almost as if teleporting.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

In the end, Yu Qingtan's water domain began to alternately expand and contract and showed a tendency to change shape.

Under the effect of the Enlightenment Tea and her excellent Water Spirit Root, signs appeared that Yu Qingtan's Water Dao Domain might reach the second stage.

Unfortunately, when the effects of the Enlightenment Tea wore off, Yu Qingtan's comprehension efficiency significantly decreased, making it difficult to further improve in a short time.

Yu Qingtan opened her eyes and drank the second cup of Enlightenment Tea, which enhanced her understanding of the Path of Wood.

The third cup improved her insight into the Path of Chess.

After consuming all three cups of Enlightenment Tea, Yu Qingtan was still longing for more.

However, her earth, metal, fire, zither, books, painting, and dance had not yet reached the threshold required by All-Under-Heaven Peak for refinement.

Yu Qingtan was not an insatiable person; she stood up and walked to the base of a cliff.

Next, Yu Qingtan was to climb this cliff. Since there were many protrusions on the cliff, it would be easy for her to climb, being a Body Cultivation Golden Core Stage cultivator. Too lazy to change her outfit, she simply started climbing in her dress.

The difficulty here was that from time to time on the cliff, the Gang Wind of the Nine Heavens would blow, which even Yu Qingtan's Golden Core Stage cultivated body could only withstand for a short while.

The Dao Domain was the key to resisting the Gang Wind of the Nine Heavens, which in turn could temper the Dao Domain, allowing the cultivator to find its deficiencies and make improvements.

Sure enough, just climbing for a dozen or so breaths, a fierce blast of Gang Wind swept up, blowing Yu Qingtan's dress.

Even though she was wearing safety shorts, Yu Qingtan immediately gathered her nascent Water Domain, the embryonic Wood Domain, and the embryonic Chess Domain.

With her Water Dao Domain approaching the second level, it wouldn't be difficult for her to traverse this cliff, but she wanted to utilize the Gang Wind from the upper reaches of the firmament to temper her Dao Domain.

To stay within the outer realm's Gang Wind layer for an extended period of time required at least the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Stage.

Thus, only after Yu Qingtan tempered her three Dao Domains to the limits of her comprehension did she manage to climb to the peak of the cliff, which was also a large platform.

The reward for the second segment was the Dao Domain tempering effect gained during the climb.

In front of the platform, there was a two hundred zhang high waterfall with turbulent waters rushing down, splashing waves several zhang high at the bottom, where one could vaguely make out a cultivator swimming upwards against the current.

On the platform, there were also three cultivators.

One was True Lord Jiang Yousi from Star Moon Sect, another was the rogue cultivator Shuise Miao from Sakura Island, and the third was True Lady You Anxiang from Jinjiang Sect.

The three of them were originally meditating with closed eyes, but upon sensing someone ascending, they all opened their eyes.

"You've finally made it up here, so slow, prepare to die!"

Seeing that it was Yu Qingtan, Shuise Miao, a tall woman with a frosty expression, spoke before directly taking action.

Yu Qingtan spent a long time tempering her three Paths during the first segment and was at ease in the second, but still took a considerable amount of time to refine her Dao Domains, which made Shuise Miao grow impatient from waiting.

Her water domain expanded as her hands swiftly formed seals, summoning a blue spear accompanied by a serpent-shaped water column to attack Yu Qingtan.

Shuise Miao turned out to be a Late-Stage Golden Core cultivator who had also solidified a true Water Dao Domain. The spear was her lifebound magical treasure, a mid-grade Third-Stage artifact, and the spell she cast was the Third-Stage Water Serpent Technique, indeed unleashing a deadly move right from the start.

Yu Qingtan raised her cultivation to the Early Stage of Golden Core, forming her water domain swiftly around her, holding the Canglan Sword in hand, Water Curtain Technique forming a shield of water armor, and Water Blade Technique forming a water blade attached to the Canglan Sword as she used the Water Escape Technique to quickly advance forward.

Jiang Yousi and You Anxiang watched the two engage without intervening, seeming to have no inclination to take part in the fray.

Yu Qingtan, not having the advantage in terms of cultivation level and being suppressed in divine sense, decided that contesting in physical prowess was her best choice, immediately closing the distance as her first course of action.

She also held the advantage in terms of the Dao Domain. She contracted her Water Dao Domain to a radius of one zhang around her, easily breaking into Shuise Miao's domain that spanned over a hundred zhang.

"Ding~"

The Canglan Sword parried away Shuise Miao's blue spear and split the incoming water serpent in two, before lifting the sword to thrust at Shuise Miao.

In a single breath, she struck out over a hundred times, the tip of the sword creating a dense swarm of fine sword radiance, carrying the immense strength from her Body Refinement at the Golden Core Stage, enveloping all the space around Shuise Miao.

The second form of Xiangfei Sword Technique, Xiang Jun's Scattered Tears.

Shuise Miao hadn't expected Yu Qingtan's Dao Domain to be manipulable in size, its intensity surpassing her own by more than a notch. Now that Yu Qingtan easily blocked her attack and countered, she chose to use the Water Escape Technique to increase the distance and manipulated her lifebound magical spear to provide aid.

"A Golden Core cultivator with Dual Cultivation of Law and Body!"

She felt the immense strength wrapped within Yu Qingtan's sword techniques; even her Minor-Achievement Third-Stage Water Escape Technique couldn't create enough distance, so she caused the spear to spin rapidly in flight.

"Ding ding ding ding~"

The Canglan Sword stabbed against the shaft of the spear, failing to break through.

Yu Qingtan, now taking the lead, changed her sword strokes, interweaving sword energy and light, resembling misty rain attacking Shuise Miao from all angles like drizzle.

The first form of Xiangfei Sword Technique, Xiao Xiang Misty Rain.

Gaining the initiative, she aimed to overwhelm her opponent with relentless, continuous attacks like a sudden fierce storm, not having to worry about depleting her resources.

In terms of spiritual power, she had plenty, and in physical strength, cultivators of Body Cultivation were known for their endurance.

Facing Yu Qingtan's fierce onslaught, Shuise Miao used a blue gauze shawl, a high-grade defensive magical treasure, and her lifebound magical spear to defend herself.
