The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 058

Chapter 058 Medicine King’s Ceremony
A figure shot out from the nearby bushes and jumped high like a rising sun. It broke through the eternal darkness and jumped out of the horizon.

“The sun rises in the east!”

Li Qing used the first move of the Flaming Sun Saber Technique to kill the enemy. Holding the Heavenly Saber in his hand, he carried boundless might and jumped into the crowd, cutting off the enemy’s formation.

The tyrannical Heavenly Saber was invincible, carrying the flames of hell. With just a single slash, it split the three Golden Scaled Guards in the middle into two.

Behind him, Liu Ke’er followed suit, as if she had transformed into a Serene Moon, sprinkling endless moonblades.

“Chi! Chi! Chi!”

The Lunar Divine Sword was unparalleled sharpness, easily cutting through the Profound Gold Heavy Armor, and then accurately pierced into the enemy’s heart.

“Enemy attack!” They reacted and shouted mournfully. The cavalry were suddenly attacked and caught off guard, unable to make an effective response. Six or seven people were killed in one go, and they couldn’t help but be shocked!

Many people were blown away by the powerful aftermath of the battle, and their horses were thrown upside down, and their formations were scattered for a time.

Li Qing and Liu Ke’er chased after each other without mercy, like a god of death. With a saber and a sword, they cooperated with each other and continuously attacked, harvesting the enemy’s life!

The Golden Scaled Guard’s proud armor was like paper in front of these two weapons, unable to withstand a single blow.

In just a few breaths, they had killed more than a dozen Golden Scaled Guards, making it look very easy.

Of course, this was the result of a sneak attack. The enemy’s formation was chaotic, and they were unable to organize an effective resistance. Only then could they kill so many people in a short period of time.

However, this group of cavalry were people who had experienced hundreds of battles. They were well-disciplined and well-behaved. After a period of panic, they quickly stabilized and organized themselves to resist.

However, when they calmed down, they discovered that they had already lost nearly half of their manpower.

‘”No–” Wang Jinghao shouted loudly, his heart bleeding. After losing so many Golden Scaled Guards, how would he explain himself when he returned?

“Kill them! Shred them into pieces!” He shouted crazily, as if he had lost his mind.

“Eldest Young Master, it’s dangerous here. Please retreat for now!” The captain of the Golden Scaled Guard said. In doing so, on the one hand, this place was indeed extremely dangerous, and on the other hand, he did not wish for Wang Jinghao to command them blindly.

“Alright, I’ll leave this place to you.” Wang Jinghao gradually regained his calm. He gritted his teeth and said, “Their weapons are strange. They can easily break through the Profound Gold Heavy Armor. You must be careful!”

“Yes!” The captain answered confidently. Afterwards, Wang Jinghao and Master Hong retreated far away and watched the battle from the side.

The captain turned around and gave the order, “Everyone gather here and set up the Golden Dragon Battle Formation!” As a result, the remaining dozen Golden Scaled Guards gathered together and stood in a mysterious position. They were extremely skilled and quickly set up a battle formation.

Even if half of their men were killed, they were still able to organize an effective counterattack. Sure enough, they were well-disciplined and well-trained. They were worthy of being the trump cards of Dongchang City.

The Golden Dragon Battle Formation was instantly formed, and true energy gathered together.

Amongst the remaining people, there were all warriors at the seventh level of the Houtian realm and above. Among them, there were some experts at the eighth and ninth levels of the Houtian realm. The true energy of these people gathered together, and their total amount was extremely large and incomparably rich.

Soon, a giant golden dragon phantom appeared and gradually solidified. It was dozens of feet long and incomparably enormous. It stood in the air, as if it could fly.

Li Qing looked at the golden dragon that emitted a terrifying aura. His expression was somewhat solemn, and a trace of fear flashed through his eyes. This Golden Dragon Battle Formation was more than ten times stronger than the Black Tiger Battle Formation he had seen before. With so many experts gathering their true energy, the power they could erupt was clearly much stronger than his.

However, he already had combat experience in this area. He knew the weaknesses and strengths of the battle formation, so he didn’t need to be too afraid. No matter how strong his strength was, what was the use of acting stupidly?

“Ke’er, back off first. I’ll fight them first!” Li Qing said. Hearing this, Liu Ke’er obediently retreated to the side.

The golden dragon floated in the air and launched an attack from above. The dragon head rushed over like lightning and bit down.

The giant mouth was dense, and the sharp teeth within could be seen clearly. It emitted a cold light. Even with Li Qing’s strength, he did not dare to forcefully receive it.

His reaction was extremely fast, and he immediately used the Eight Desolate Horizontal Movement Technique. He took a step forward and disappeared in front of the golden dragon. He arrived at the side of the golden dragon and slashed out with his saber.

If it was just an ordinary martial artist, they probably wouldn’t be able to break through its defense against this terrifying golden dragon. After all, it was formed from such a deep accumulation of true energy. The scales on their bodies were clearly visible, and they were incomparably dense. Their defenses were extremely terrifying.

However, Li Qing could not easily break through the golden dragon’s defense with the Heavenly Saber in his hand.

This golden dragon’s strength was large enough, but it was still not sensitive enough to deal with ordinary martial artists. However, in front of Li Qing, it was just a moving target. There was no doubt that its weakness was revealed and it was unable to dodge this saber attack.

Sure enough, the Heavenly Saber struck the golden dragon’s waist, as if it was cutting tofu. It didn’t take much effort to cut it directly into the golden dragon’s waist. However, the golden dragon’s body was too large. This saber strike did not completely cut it apart, only leaving a gap.

Even so, it still caused tremendous damage to the golden dragon. The faces of the martial artists in the formation turned pale, and Cha Zhan was unable to maintain the battle formation, causing intense fluctuations.

Their strength was no small matter. Soon, they stabilized the battle formation, replenished their True Qi, and condensed the damaged parts again.

“The divine dragon waved its tail!” The golden dragon quickly launched a counterattack. With a twist of its body, the dragon tail behind it swept over. Its speed was extremely fast, as if it had transformed into an illusion.

Li Qing was shocked. He didn’t expect the seemingly stupid golden dragon to be able to launch such a sharp attack. He was careless for a moment and couldn’t avoid it.

He slashed out with his saber, shattering the dragon tail. However, he was also struck by the impact and was sent flying like a cannonball into the mountain wall.

“Boom!” Half of the mountain wall had collapsed, and dust was flying.

“Li Qing! How are you?” Liu Ke’er was very worried and shouted loudly.

“Haha, you must be dead now!” When Wang Jinghao saw this scene from afar, he let out a happy laugh and his heart finally fell.

“It’s fine!” Li Qing’s voice came from the mountain wall and easily shattered the huge rock blocking the way. Then, he walked out, full of vigor and vitality.

Wang Jinghao’s laughter abruptly stopped, and he said in disbelief, “How is that possible? It’s actually alright to receive such a blow?” He was very clear about the power of this divine dragon tail swing. A Houtian realm martial artist was simply unable to resist it. Could it be that this fellow was a Xiantian expert?

There was a trace of blood on the corner of Li Qing’s mouth. Obviously, he had suffered some injuries, but it didn’t seem to be seriously injured. His strength was so strong, and his physical fitness was extremely terrifying. He was simply like a human-shaped demonic beast. Naturally, his defense wasn’t low. How could he be so easily injured?

“I underestimated my opponent. This Golden Dragon Battle Formation is not bad. It can actually use such a mysterious move!” Li Qing wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shouted, “Again!” He stomped down and rushed forward again.

The martial artists in the battle array became even paler. Although the divine dragon had successfully struck the opponent with its tail, its tail had also been shattered. If this continues, I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold on for long.

“How could that be? Why is his weapon so powerful?” The Golden Scaled Guard Captain cursed inwardly and could only clench his teeth and persevere.

They hurriedly activated their zhenqi and condensed a new dragon tail. Then, they forcefully twitched it and swept it towards Li Qing.

“Another divine dragon swinging its tail, but this move is useless against me now!” Li Qing was prepared, so of course he wouldn’t be hit again. With a flash of his body, he dodged.

“Boom!” The dragon tail landed on the hillside, directly creating a huge crack. Its power was terrifying.

“Swoosh!” Li Qing flashed to the top of the golden dragon’s head and slashed out with a saber that was as fast as lightning. The dragon head shrank abruptly and was extremely fast, but it was still unable to hide completely, leaving a crack.

“You want to run?” Li Qing did not stop. After landing on the ground, he kicked hard and rushed forward again, not giving the other party any time to react.

Next, he continuously attacked, slashing towards the golden dragon’s body, causing damage. The golden dragon struggled with all its might, reluctantly counterattacking, but that was only a cannon striking at mosquitoes, and it had no effect.

Just like that, when Li Qing struck the seventh strike of the Golden Dragon, the battle formation finally couldn’t hold on anymore. It completely collapsed, exploding, and energy shot everywhere.

More than a dozen Golden Scaled Guards spat out blood and fell to the ground. They no longer had the strength to fight. Seeing Li Qing walk over with the Heavenly Saber in his hand, they couldn’t help but reveal expressions of despair.

“If you hadn’t killed half of them, you wouldn’t have won us!” The Golden Scaled Guard Captain roared unwillingly.

“But I won, didn’t I?” Li Qing chuckled and slashed down with a knife to kill him.

The rest of them were unable to escape the fate of death, and all of them died under the Heavenly Saber. At this point, the three Golden Scaled Guards, with a total of 30 men, were completely annihilated.

When Wang Jinghao and Master Hong saw that things were not going well, they hurriedly rode their horses to escape. Li Qing took out two spears from his interspatial ring, stretched his body, and threw them out abruptly.

“Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The spear pierced through the air like lightning, accurately hitting the Dragon Blood BMW beneath their seats, and immediately fell to the ground.

Li Qing lifted his Heavenly Saber and strode forward.

“You can’t kill me! I’m the eldest young master of the Wang Clan, the future successor. If you kill me, you’ll get into big trouble!” Wang Jinghao shouted in fear. He kept retreating, feeling extremely miserable, completely losing his previous demeanor.

“If I don’t kill you, I’m afraid it’ll be more troublesome!” Li Qing said coldly. Then, he slashed down with his saber and killed him.

After killing Wang Jinghao, Li Qing looked at Master Hong again.

Master Hong’s entire body trembled as he revealed an ugly smile. He said, “You and I originally had no grudges or enmity, so why should we fight to the death? I’m a high-level alchemist. How about this, I’m willing to refine pills for you for free, and you leave me alive, okay?”

“I’ve seen many high-level alchemists. They’re not rare.” Li Qing said disdainfully.

Just as he finished speaking, Master Hong opened his mouth and spat out a green gas. At the same time, he waved his hand and sprayed countless poisonous needles at Li Qing!

“Go to hell!” His expression was ferocious.

“I’ve always been on guard against you!” Li Qing did not panic. He shut his breath and circulated his True Qi to defend his entire body. At the same time, he swept his Heavenly Saber and bounced back all the poisonous needles. In the end, he shot them all at Master Hong!

‘”Ah–” he cried out, struggling with all his might. After a while, his entire body decayed and he died.

“So vicious!” Liu Ke’er couldn’t help but shiver.

“It doesn’t matter. It’s just a trash trick. It can’t be used on the stage. It won’t be of much use to martial artists.” As Li Qing spoke, he walked forward and picked up a ring from Master Hong’s finger.

“Space Ring!” Liu Ke’er blurted out.

Li Qing injected a trace of True Qi and investigated the situation inside. He saw that there were a lot of medicinal ingredients in the ring. There were also a large pile of spirit stones, as well as some precious treasures, weapons, and other items, as well as some miscellaneous items.

The wealth in this ring was no less than that of Xiantian experts. Apothecary, you are indeed wealthy, your reputation is well-deserved.

However, within this pile of wealth, there was a thick book that attracted Li Qing’s attention.

He took out the book and saw four simple words written on the cover: Medicine King’s Ceremony!
