The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 328
Chapter 328 Ancient God’s Tower (14)
On the fourth floor, demonic beasts of the Monster King level were everywhere. Along the way, they encountered attacks from several monsters, all of which were dealt with by Li Qing.
Even if he couldn’t find any treasures, he could still earn a lot of spirit stones by killing so many demonic beasts, obtaining precious materials, and selling them.
After all, in the outside world, the number of demonic beasts was relatively small, and it was difficult to discover them hidden deep in the mountains and forests. How could it be like this Ancient God Pagoda, where demonic beasts were everywhere? It could be said to be a supreme treasure vault.
After three days of searching, Li Qing finally found a rank eight Monster King in a mountain range. This was a scorpion called the Scarlet Sun Scorpion. It got its name because there was a pattern on its back that resembled the red sun. It was extremely poisonous and was even harder to deal with than ordinary demonic beasts.
However, Li Qing had once consumed the Immortal Spirit Flower and was invulnerable to all poisons. He was just able to restrain such poisons, so he wasn’t afraid.
He took out the Ancient God Golden Saber and gently stroked it. He sighed and said, “Come and test the power of this saber today!”
“Kill!”
Li Qing rushed forward and started fighting with the Scarlet Sun Scorpion. Not long after, the Scarlet Sun Scorpion spat out a mouthful of poisonous mist and wrapped around Li Qing’s surroundings.
It originally thought that this poisonous mist could poison this human to death, but it didn’t expect Li Qing to be unaffected and still be alive.
It was furious. The scorpion tail swept across Li Qing like lightning and stabbed him. The poison was injected into him, but it was still useless. Its poison seemed to have failed on this human.
Without this most powerful weapon, the Scarlet Sun Scorpion could only rely on the strength of the demon race’s flesh to fight Li Qing head-on.
“Ancient God Saber Technique!” Li Qing used the newly acquired saber technique to test his skills.
In the past few days, Li Qing had learned the Ancient God Saber Technique. Although he wasn’t very proficient in it, he was still barely able to execute it.
After all, his realm had already reached perfection, and most of his saber techniques could be learned easily with a single glance.
The Ancient God Saber Technique was a unique technique that matched the Ancient God Golden Saber. When used together, the two techniques were extremely powerful, shining with golden light that illuminated the surroundings. The saber type opened and closed in all directions.
Speaking of which, apart from the Nine Demon Emperor Slashes, Li Qing didn’t have any saber techniques that he could use. He naturally remembered the Flame Sun Saber Technique from before, but the Flame Sun Saber Technique required the Eight Desolate Demon Subduing Divine Technique to be powerful enough. Otherwise, it would be ordinary.
Li Qing’s Eight Desolate Demon Subduing Technique had long since been crippled. All of the saber techniques he had learned in Flaming Sun Peak could not be used. Only the Eight Desolate Horizontal Movement Technique could still be used, but its power was similarly much lower.
Right now, this Ancient God Saber Technique could just make up for his shortcomings.
The battle between Li Qing and the Scarlet Sun Scorpion was so intense that sparks splashed everywhere. This poison’s physical body wasn’t too tyrannical, and it was useless against Li Qing. Therefore, it couldn’t do anything to Li Qing and was suppressed by him.
Li Qing’s combat strength was extremely abundant. With such a great advantage, he could have killed him in one blow long ago, but he had always kept his life. He wanted to use it to temper his saber techniques.
After fighting for a whole day, Li Qing became more and more courageous, and his saber technique became more and more proficient. The Scarlet Sun Scorpion had long since lost its temper and wanted to escape, but was stalled by Li Qing, unable to escape.
In the end, Li Qing saw that the Scarlet Sun Scorpion did not have the desire to fight and that the training had no effect. Only then did it end its life.
“Let’s go find the next demonic beast!” Li Qing’s intentions were not over yet.
Through this day of training, Li Qing was already proficient in using the Ancient God Saber Technique, and he had a deeper understanding of this saber technique.
This was the effect of training. If one were to train hard at home, it would probably take more than ten days to reach this level.
A few more days later, Li Qing heard a fierce battle on a hill.
“Eh? Someone’s over there. Let’s go take a look.” Li Qing said.
He walked over and saw that a few people were attacking a demonic beast. This demonic beast was a demonic wolf. Its entire body was copper-colored. Li Qing recognized it as an “Ancient Copper Wolf”.
The rest of them were Li Qing’s old acquaintances. They were all existences in the top ten of the Dragon-Phoenix Rankings. They were clearly Wind Lightning Swordsmen, Yan Bei Lou, He Tiancheng, and the person named Yan Zheng who was ranked sixth.
At this moment, these people were surrounding the Ancient Copper Wolf. With the four great geniuses working together, they were also geniuses of the highest level. Their power was boundless.
The cooperation between the two of them was actually very tacit.
The Wind Lightning Swordsman had the strongest attack power, crazily exporting from the surroundings. The Wind Lightning Twin Swords were powerful, and the Nine Wind Lightning Swords destroyed everything. Sword after sword, they continuously left bloodstains on the Ancient Copper Wolf’s body.
On the other hand, Yan Beilou used the Heavenly Hole Technique to trap the Ancient Copper Wolf with a black hole above his head.
He Tiancheng acted as a meat shield, his body growing like a mountain, and his blood-colored dragon scales covered his body layer upon layer, firmly resisting the Ancient Copper Wolf.
In the end, he hid in the back and fired a cold arrow, aiming at the weakness of the Ancient Copper Wolf and continuously shooting out cold and crafty poisonous arrows.
The Ancient Copper Wolf, who was as strong as an Eighth Grade Monster King, was also suppressed by the combined might of the four of them. Moreover, there was a deep bone wound on the Ancient Copper Wolf’s body, which almost cut off its waist, causing blood to continuously flow out.
This should be the result of someone ambushing him with a powerful spirit artifact.
“How can this demonic beast’s defense be so hard? I can’t stand it anymore!” After fighting for a long time, He Tiancheng shouted loudly. He stood at the front and used his flesh shield. At this moment, the Ancient Copper Wolf had beaten him to the point that his dragon scales were almost gone.
“My judgment is wrong. This Ancient Copper Wolf’s defense is beyond imagination. I shouldn’t have chosen it as my target back then!” The Wind Lightning Swordsman said coldly.
When they reached the fourth floor, they quickly chose to join forces. The first demonic beast they encountered was the Ancient Copper Wolf in front of them.
These four people were all geniuses and arrogant people. With the four of them working together, how could they look down on such an idiot as the Ancient Copper Wolf? So he took action.
Unexpectedly, he had encountered such a difficult situation. Although he had successfully trapped the Ancient Copper Wolf, he was unable to kill it, and it was almost impossible for him to endure.
“Roar!”
After being suppressed for so long, the Ancient Copper Wolf was already furious to the point of exploding. The bronze light on its body exploded, forming a layer of liquid copper that blocked all attacks from the surroundings.
At the same time, its body suddenly grew larger, and its strength increased greatly. It instantly tore open the black hole, sending He Tiancheng flying with a slap and jumping out.
“Not good, it’s going all out. It’s dangerous!” The faces of the four changed drastically.
As the Ancient Copper Wolf escaped from its trap, it immediately killed all four of them. A pair of iron claws swept out, killing the four of them until they were forced to retreat.
This demonic wolf’s fighting style was originally extremely agile, and the power of a pair of bronze claws and teeth was even more terrifying, so none of the four people present could contend against it.
Seeing that the situation was not good and there were about to be casualties, the four of them couldn’t help but be overjoyed when they saw Li Qing’s arrival.
“Li Qing, hurry and save us!” Yan Beilou shouted.
Li Qing couldn’t help but laugh, “They’re really courting death. What kind of demonic beasts are these people not looking for? They’re looking for demonic beasts like the Ancient Copper Wolf that have strong defense and are extremely agile!”
“Li Qing, for the sake of our acquaintance, save our lives!” He Tiancheng also shouted.
Seeing Li Qing standing there unmoved, as if he was watching a good show, Yan Bei Lou became anxious and loudly said, “Li Qing, there are rank eight Monster Kings here. If we can kill them, we are willing to give this inner core to you! You also have to complete the mission.”
Li Qing nodded, “That’s more like it. Since that’s the case, I’ll accept this inner core!”
With that, he took out the Ancient God Golden Saber and rushed forward.
“Ancient God Saber Technique!”
Li Qing used this saber technique. Its power was unparalleled. It opened and closed in all directions like a saber god descending into the world, golden radiance shining brightly.
With Li Qing joining in, the situation immediately turned around and trapped the Ancient Copper Wolf again. Li Qing stood in front of them, fighting against the demonic wolf without losing ground, blocking all of its attacks.
The Wind Lightning Swordsman couldn’t help but sigh, “How powerful! He can actually fight against a rank eight Monster King! Ai …”
Originally, with Li Qing’s strength alone, he could suppress the Ancient Copper Wolf. Moreover, with so many people working together, even the Ancient Copper Wolf with strong defenses could no longer withstand it. Soon, it was killed by them.
“Motherf*cker, I’ve finally killed this Ancient Copper Wolf. Its defense is too strong.” He Tiancheng wiped a handful of blood.
“I haven’t seen you in a few days. I didn’t expect your strength to become stronger again! Is this saber a spirit artifact?” The Wind Lightning Swordsman said to Li Qing.
“That’s right, I got it on the fourth floor.” Li Qing admitted calmly.
“Your luck is really good!” Yan Beilou and He Tiancheng also approached and looked at the golden saber in Li Qing’s hand with envy.
Just as they were conversing, Yan Zheng sneakily came to the side of the Ancient Copper Wolf and quickly put the corpse into the spatial ring. Then, he immediately turned into a streak of light and fled into the distance.
“You dare!” Yan Bei Lou shouted loudly, waking everyone up. Only then did they turn around and discover that the Ancient Copper Wolf had been stolen.
“Serious, shameless person!” He Tiancheng was furious.
Li Qing narrowed his eyes. His solemn speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he had already escaped very far. It was precisely this delay that made it extremely difficult to catch up.
‘”There’s wind beneath my feet. It looks like I have a spirit artifact shoe and a talisman attached to my body. It should be a high-grade divine talisman. For this Ancient Copper Wolf, I’ve really invested a lot of money. I don’t even need to face it anymore.”
Originally, an archer who was skilled in agility had cultivated a brilliant movement technique. Now, with the blessing of these two treasures, his speed was unparalleled, and he disappeared in front of everyone in a flash.
