    Chapter 0745: The Power of the Immortal-Demon Physique

    Yue You's eyes blazed with fury as she said coldly, "Qin Yun, I can crush you anytime! With your level of strength, you're nothing but an insect in front of me!"

    Qin Yun barked a laugh. "It's normal for someone who's lived for tens of thousands of years to have your level of strength! But what's the use? You still can't get your hands on the Dark Moon, can you?"

    Yue You wanted to slap him but bit back her anger.

    "Qin Yun, take the test first. If you really are at the late-stage Lingwu Realm, then I’ll have a civil conversation with you!" Yue You said. "You’re just a mercenary bastard, aren’t you? Don’t you want treasures? I have plenty to offer here!"

    Qin Yun had just seen how desperately Si Yue and the others wanted the Dark Moon's Mystic Pill. Though he didn’t know its exact effects, it must be incredibly valuable.

    Yue You just wanted to salve her wounded pride by having her disciples win.

    And now that Qin Yun had cultivated the Immortal-Demon Physique, fighting against those at the Xuanwu Realm wasn’t particularly difficult.

    After some thought, Qin Yun placed his hand on the orb.

    The orb immediately lit up, pulsing with light.

    A moment later, Yue You looked disbelieving. "This damn brat is actually only at the late-stage Lingwu Realm! He hasn’t even condensed a Xuanling Dao-Crystal yet!"

    Qin Yun sneered. "Now you realize how worthless the guys you raised are!"

    "You—!" Er Yue seethed, itching to fight Qin Yun immediately.

    But as someone at the Xuanwu Realm, even if he defeated Qin Yun, it wouldn’t be anything impressive—just a way to vent his anger.

    Yue You looked at Qin Yun and smirked. "Tell me what you want! As long as you can defeat Er Yue!"

    "I want resources that can help me quickly condense a Xuanling Dao-Crystal. Do you have any?" Qin Yun didn’t hold back.

    "Of course! I’ll give you a hundred jin each of Dao Crystal Jade and Xuan Heart Crystals—enough for you to condense a Xuanling Dao-Crystal!" Yue You’s words sent murmurs through the crowd.

    Even a single jin of Dao Crystal Jade or Xuan Heart Crystals was worth their weight in gold!

    "I want a thousand jin of each!" Qin Yun grinned.

    Given his unique constitution, a hundred jin wouldn’t be nearly enough.

    "Not a chance!" Er Yue immediately shouted.

    "Why so defensive? Do you think you’re going to lose?" Qin Yun laughed.

    "Qin Yun! Twenty to thirty jin of Dao Crystal Jade and Xuan Heart Crystals are enough for an ordinary person to condense a Xuanling Dao-Crystal! The amount I’m giving you is three to four times that amount!" Yue You said coldly.

    But three or four times the normal amount was still far from enough for Qin Yun.

    Qin Yun chuckled. "Since you’re so confident that Er Yue will win, even if you promise me a thousand jin, I might not get it. If I lose, you won’t have to give me a single tael!"

    "Very well, you'll get it!" Yue You's eyes slitted as she smirked. "But if you get seriously injured during the fight, don’t blame us!"

    "My only worry now is that you won’t keep your word!" Qin Yun said.

    Yue You took out two small pouches and handed them to Yang Shiyue. "I’ll leave these with her. If you win, she’ll give them to you. Now you can stop worrying, right?"

    Yang Shiyue nodded at Qin Yun.

    Qin Yun was secretly stunned—Yue You was filthy rich. Now he was thinking about how to milk her for all she's worth.

    Qin Yun stepped onto the dueling platform, still pondering how to push further and make Yue You offer up even more treasures.

    "Xiao Yun, this Darkmoon Wasteland is truly a treasure trove, hiding many treasures!" Ling Yuner said. "But after so many years, surely many have already been claimed by Yue You or Xie Ying!"

    Qin Yun agreed, which was why he was strategizing to make Yue You surrender more treasures.

    "Begin!" Yue You suddenly shouted, jolting Qin Yun from his thoughts.

    Qin Yun hadn’t expected the duel to start so soon—he had been too engrossed in his thoughts to notice.

    At the very start, due to his distraction, Er Yue gained the upper hand.

    The moment Qin Yun regained focus, he felt Er Yue streaking toward him like lightning, delivering two devastating blows—one to his abdomen and another to his head.

    KABOOM!

    Two explosive impacts reverberated, shaking the entire ancient fortress.

    Qin Yun was hurled backward by the impact, crashing into the barrier.

    Er Yue laughed triumphantly, throwing punches from a distance. Waves of violent fist energy, taking the form of black-and-gold dragon-headed shockwaves, all converged and struck Qin Yun.

    Plastered against the barrier, Qin Yun was pummeled by unyielding energy, unable to break free.

    "This guy has a *Black Dragon Martial Soul*! And it seems to be a Thunder Dragon!" Ling Yuner remarked, showing no concern for Qin Yun.

    Qin Yun’s *Immortal-Demon Physique* inherently possessed formidable defense. Even against such a barrage, he could endure.

    After all, during his cultivation of the *Immortal-Demon Physique*, his body had been shattered and reborn over and over, forging not just unbreakable toughness but also astonishing regenerative abilities.

    Qin Yun had simply been caught flat-footed at the start, leading to this barrage of hits.

    "Er Yue, excellent work! Now use your *Divine Arts* to finish him off!" Yue You cheered excitedly.

    Er Yue swiftly activated his *Divine Arts*. A torrent of black energy burst forth from his chest, transforming into a dragon that shot toward Qin Yun like a black comet, wreathed in draconic fury.

    The dragon’s charge was blindingly fast, and Qin Yun appeared too battered to counter!

    Xiao Xuanqin and Yang Shiyue held their breath.

    Bao Changshou and Jian Shitian, though aware of Qin Yun’s strength, had only seen him fight against Spirit Martial Realm opponents.

    Now, facing a Martial Lord of the Profound Martial Realm—one who possessed a *Black Martial Soul*, Immortal Blood, and an Immortal Body—the disparity was glaring.

    As the dragon surged toward him, Qin Yun’s body trembled, his bones emitting a cascade of bone-deep cracks.

    Gathering every ounce of his strength, he unleashed the Dragon Vanquish Five Palms!

    Five palm strikes were executed in an instant, their force merging into one, erupting with the furious roar of a dragon.

    The power of Qin Yun’s Ultimate Dragon Palm carried a storm of black thunderflames, perfectly fused together—thunderflames surging amidst tremors, tremors erupting with thunderflames!

    The *Divine Arts* unleashed by Er Yue had manifested an unstoppable, overwhelming dragon.

    Yet Qin Yun’s explosive palm strike seemed to carry infinite, earth-shattering power!

    A roar...

    Qin Yun's Five Palms of Dragon Vanquishing struck the dragon formed by Divine Arts, shattering it into black mist!

    This palm strike from Qin Yun visibly shaken the Half-Immortals and Emperor Wu present!

    Even Yue You's body shuddered slightly at the sight!

    The power behind Qin Yun's strike was definitely not something achievable by someone at the Late-stage Lingwu Realm!

    Even those at the Early Xuanwu Realm couldn't unleash such terrifying force.

    Er Yue was at the Early Xuanwu Realm, possessing an Immortal Body and cultivated Immortal Blood within himself.

    With his twin black Martial Souls, the Divine Arts he unleashed were formidable enough to slay Martial Lords at the mid to late stages of the Xuanwu Realm.

    Yet, Qin Yun's single palm technique dispersed Er Yue's Divine Arts power!

    Most astonishingly, Qin Yun, who had been savagely pummeled at the start, now appeared completely unscathed.

    Er Yue, who had been brimming with arrogance, now felt pure terror!

    Only he could truly comprehend Qin Yun's horror, as he knew his own Divine Arts power intimately; even Martial Lords at the mid to late stages of the Xuanwu Realm could only dodge, unable to directly withstand it.

    But Qin Yun not only withstood it, he obliterated the dual Divine Arts power Er Yue had condensed!

    The arena surged with black energy, the dispersed Divine Arts power frantically swirling.

    Suddenly, Qin Yun vanished.

    In an instant, he appeared behind Er Yue.

    Er Yue, valued highly by Yue You, was no slouch—his reflexes were razor-sharp!

    With a vicious twist, he struck at Qin Yun with a palm!

    Qin Yun countered with lightning speed, blocking Er Yue's strike!

    Ling Yuner, who had been preparing all along, suddenly unleashed her crushing gravitational force!

    The sudden, intense gravitational pressure enveloped Er Yue.

    Even as a Xuanwu Realm expert, Er Yue was caught off guard, slammed face-first into the ground by the overwhelming force.

    It felt as if a titanic mountain had silently descended upon him, pressing down with immense weight.

    Blood gushed from his mouth, and he howled, pinned helplessly.

    "I surrender!"

    Seeing Qin Yun's palm crackling with thunderous flames, Er Yue hastily cried out.

    Qin Yun's Dragon Vanquish Five Palms never even needed to connect—victory was already his!

    The most stunned were Bao Changshou, Jian Shitian, and the other Half-Immortals! Qin Yun's rapid advancement to the Late-stage Lingwu Realm had already amazed them.

    Now, he had effortlessly crushed a formidable opponent like Er Yue!

    Such progress was defying all belief.

    Bao Changshou pondered for a moment and realized that Qin Yun had spent that period of time with Bingxing, the Immortal. It was clear that Qin Yun's rapid progress was due to Bingxing's support behind the scenes.

    Yue You withdrew the barrier, appearing less furious than before, as Qin Yun's strength had left her stunned!

    Yang Shiyue approached and handed Qin Yun two storage bags, murmured to him, "Xiao Yun, the Star Monarch Rune Soul is also inside the storage bags. Take care of it!"

    "Thank you, Sister Yang!" Qin Yun laughed.

    "You *really* pissed off Yue You this time—but that’s just as well!" Yang Shiyue continued their private exchange, ensuring Yue You remained unaware.

    Qin Yun looked at Yue You and grinned, "You still have your 'Zhengyue.' Want to have him fight me too?"

    Yue You replied coldly, "He is no match for you!"

    Qin Yun sighed and shook his head, "So you admit they’re all trash now?"

    "No! They only lost to *you*! Apart from you, only a handful of opponents at their level could defeat them!" Yue You no longer spoke with the same certainty.

    Qin Yun chuckled, "Well then, thanks for the gifts, Your Majesty!"

    With no clever way left to trick Yue You out of more treasures, he left the stage with a hint of regret.

    "Don’t leave—I challenge you!" Yue You hissed.

    "You? But you’re a mighty Immortal!" Qin Yun laughed with a smirk.

    "I’ll seal my cultivation, limiting myself to the late-stage Lingwu Realm!" Yue You snapped. "I will defeat you!"

    "If you lose, how about being my little wife?" Qin Yun teased with a grin, which sent all of Yue You’s subordinates into a rage.
