The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 336
Chapter 336 Ancient God’s Tower (22)
“Why did the Demon Sovereign let that kid escape?” Yin Qianyu asked in confusion.
Under the cover of the Nether Demonic Qi, it was pitch black. She did not see the specific situation. She only felt a terrifying fluctuation erupt inside, and then Li Qing disappeared.
“Hmph, that brat has a trump card. He accidentally escaped. I’ll catch him when I get out.” The Nether Devil Sovereign’s displeased voice rang out. Letting a Xiantian brat escape made him feel a little embarrassed.
“That’s the only way.” Of course, Yin Qianyu did not dare to object.
Without Li Qing’s troubles, breaking the formation would be even smoother. As time passed, Yin Qianyu knocked on the Xuantian Formation Breaking Drum, and the seal gradually opened. A huge ghost face made of demonic energy slowly appeared.
This was the Nether Devil Sovereign! To be exact, this was just a wisp of his remnant soul. Every peerless great demon or great devil sealed within the Ancient God Tower was not in a complete state. For example, the Demon Ancestor Tree on the second floor only had one trunk left.
The Nether Demon Sovereign in front of him was no exception. Only a wisp of his soul was left. It was extremely miserable.
“More than 50,000 years have passed, and I have finally welcomed the day of my birth! Hahahaha–” The giant ghost face opened its mouth and laughed loudly. The terrifying laughter was extremely sharp, and it spread throughout the entire world of the sixth level of the Ancient God Tower.
After laughing wildly for a long time, the Nether Devil Sovereign regained his calm. He lowered his head and looked at Yin Qianyu, asking, “Are you from the Myriad Devil Sect?”
“That’s right!” Yin Qianyu said respectfully, her heart filled with apprehension.
“Don’t be nervous. At least you saved me. I won’t kill you.” The Nether Devil Sovereign chuckled.
Hearing the words of the Devil Sovereign, Yin Qianyu felt her entire body tremble. The characters in Diabolism were all sinister and cunning people. They would not be grateful for saving their opponent’s life. This kind of peerless fierce person was capricious and had been sealed for so long. His mentality was already extremely distorted. He could be more careful now.
“After so many generations, the Myriad Demon Sect is no longer the Myriad Demon Sect of the Middle Ages. Logically speaking, although I am a senior of your Diabolism, I have nothing to do with the Myriad Demon Sect now. Why did you put so much effort into rescuing me?” Said the Nether Demon Sovereign.
The Myriad Demon Sect was Diabolism’s “orthodox” sect. Although its name still existed, the people inside had changed for countless generations. It was similar to the change of dynasties in the secular world, becoming the master of the Myriad Demon Sect was equivalent to inheriting the orthodoxy.
“I’m not sure about this matter. It was all ordered by the higher-ups of the sect. This junior is only following the orders.” Yin Qianyu lowered her head and said.
The Nether Demon Sovereign said indifferently, “If you don’t tell me, I know what you’re thinking. Isn’t it just for the treasure of the Profound Heavens?”
Although this sentence was plain and indifferent, it was like a thunderbolt from the blue, causing Yin Qianyu’s scalp to go numb. He stammered, “Profound Heavenly Treasure? Could it be that the Profound Heavenly Treasure is in Senior’s hands?”
“Looks like you really don’t know about this.” The Nether Demon Sovereign said indifferently, “It’s fine to tell you. The Profound Heaven Treasure is indeed in my hands. Back then, I broke through the Profound Heaven Mountain, seized the Profound Heaven Treasure, and hid it in the Nether Flame Sea.” Without my guidance, no one would be able to find the treasures of the Profound Heavens from the Nether Flame Sea. Otherwise, why do you think the Ancient God Pagoda expended so much effort to suppress such a remnant soul like me? Isn’t it just to get the whereabouts of the Profound Heaven treasure from my heart? ”
“The treasure of the Profound Heavens was also taken away by Senior. It’s truly amazing.” Yin Qianyu flattered.
The second treasure of eternity was a supreme treasure condensed from heaven and earth. Originally, it should be the number one treasure under the heavens, but in the end, the Primordial Chaos Limitless Diagram snatched away the number one throne. However, this did not damage its prestige.
…
Li Qing successfully escaped from the sealed area. He looked at the endless devil energy erupting from afar, like the source of the devil. Black smoke billowed into the sky, covering the sky and covering the sun, turning the day into night.
A terrifying aura descended upon the earth, signaling the imminent appearance of a peerless fierce demon.
“This time, I was shamed by that woman again! It’s really too sinister.” Li Qing’s expression was a little ugly, and there was a sense of resentment in his heart.
This confrontation with Yin Qianyu was a complete defeat in terms of scheming.
Actually, he had already done a good job. The Thirty-Six Absolute Forbidden Immortal Lock and Heart Devouring Flame had used dual methods to restrict her. Furthermore, they had also confiscated her spatial ring, but she still managed to escape.
This woman had grasped her weakness and grasped more information. She knew that the Nether Devil Sovereign was not dead, so she could use this method to escape.
During this period of time, Yin Qianyu could be said to be at a great disadvantage. Life and death were only between Li Qing’s thoughts, and there were very few things that could be used. But even in such a great disadvantage, Li Qing was still turned upside down by her. It had to be said that this woman was extremely powerful.
“She taught me how to be a person this time! Losing to the treacherous and cunning Diabolism genius is not embarrassing. In the future, you must not waste your breath on her. You can just cut her to death with one knife.” Li Qing thought hatefully.
“The Netherworld Demon Sovereign has appeared. He must chase after me. What should we do this time?” Li Qing felt distressed in his heart.
Although he was extremely angry in his heart, he understood that the main problem now was not how to find the place, but how to escape the pursuit of the Nether Demon Sovereign in the Ancient God Pagoda?
The Ancient God Pagoda was opened for a year. He had to stay here long enough before he could be teleported out. Now, less than a month had passed. After the Nether Devil Sovereign escaped from his trap, he would be chased after by this peerless fierce man for nearly a year! Thinking of this, Li Qing’s heart trembled.
“Sigh, I was really careless. The Nether Demon Sovereign is actually not a human! Furthermore, he has lived until now. What should I do now?” Li Qing smiled bitterly.
He naturally thought that the Nether Devil Sovereign had died a long time ago, but he never thought that the Nether Devil Sovereign would actually be able to survive. His lifespan was so long. This was the fundamental reason why he was turned upside down by Yin Qianyu.
“Let’s go see what’s going on in the Ancient God Palace on the sixth floor and see if there’s a chance to ascend to the seventh floor!” Li Qing thought to himself. There was nothing he could do now. If he stayed on the sixth floor, he would be endlessly pursued by the Nether Demon Sovereign. He had to think of a way to reach the seventh floor!
He quickly arrived at the Ancient God Hall on the sixth floor. A huge golden light barrier enveloped the entire hall. Other than being an expert from Ancient Gods Clan, no one else could enter.
Li Qing threw a stone over from afar and smashed into the light barrier. In the end, it was bounced out and landed at Li Qing’s feet.
“This light shield actually only has a defensive function. It has no effect on rebounding attacks?” Li Qing was ecstatic. What he was most afraid of was that this defensive light shield would kill all creatures that approached, so that there would be no chance at all.
However, if he only had the ability to defend himself, there was a possibility that he would be able to enter! All he had to do was use his Heavenly Saber to split open the defensive shield!
“Try a few more times!” Li Qing thought to himself. He turned around and left. He casually hunted down a demonic beast and threw it into the light shield. However, the light shield did not react at all. It merely blocked the demonic beast.
He had tried several times in a row, and even used his live prey to throw it there, allowing the demonic beasts to attack the light shield. In the end, there was no problem at all.
Looks like this light shield should only have the ability to defend. He felt that there shouldn’t be any danger, so he decided to personally enter the battle.
“Break it!” Li Qing held the Heavenly Saber in his hand and chopped towards the light shield.
“Crack!” With a crisp sound, the Heavenly Saber broke through the light shield. In the end, something shocking happened to Li Qing!
The Heavenly Saber had indeed cut through the light shield, but it had actually only made a small cut. It was very difficult for it to continue to cut down, and it encountered an enormous resistance, as if it had sunk into a quagmire.
“How is this possible!” Li Qing was shocked. Ever since he obtained the Heavenly Saber, there was nothing that could withstand the Heavenly Saber’s slash.
This saber was simply invincible, capable of cutting through everything, but today, it had actually suffered a setback! It was hard for him to believe.
The light shield flowed like water for a while, and the small hole slowly healed.
“Sure enough, it will heal automatically. I expected it. Fortunately, the healing speed isn’t too fast!” Li Qing heaved a sigh of relief.
What he feared the most was that the light barrier healed too quickly, just like the light barrier of the Cleansing Spirit Green Lotus. Although the Heavenly Saber could cut through it, it healed in an instant, making it impossible for him to do anything about it.
“The bigger the light shield, the more energy it consumes. Therefore, the healing speed will be slower. This gives me some chances.”
The reason why Heavenly Saber was able to slash so reluctantly was clearly because this light shield was too powerful. After all, this was the territory of Ancient Gods Clan’s subduing clan, so it was not surprising that it possessed such powerful strength.
Although the Heavenly Saber was unparalleled in sharpness, it still had its limits. Of course, Li Qing didn’t know where the limit of the Heavenly Saber was. Perhaps it was because his own strength was too weak to display the power of the Heavenly Saber.
After all, the Heavenly Saber was a peerless Dao Weapon. A Xiantian expert like Li Qing was unable to display the power of a Dao Weapon. Not to mention a Dao Artifact, even if it was a spirit artifact, Xiantian experts would not be able to unleash its full power. At most, they would only be able to use a small portion of its power.
When his strength grew stronger, the power of the Heavenly Saber would definitely become even greater.
There wasn’t much time left, so even if he couldn’t cut it, he had to forcefully chop it off. Li Qing did not hesitate. He held the Heavenly Saber in his hand and slashed it fiercely. The light shield was constantly sliced open with small cuts.
After chopping for a long time, Li Qing finally chopped out a small hole, and it was still healing. He could not stop, otherwise, his previous efforts would be in vain.
After Li Qing chopped down for two hours, a heaven-shaking devil energy suddenly erupted from the distant sky. A huge ghost face made of devil energy appeared, occupying half of the sky.
The Nether Demon Sovereign was completely born!
