More and more people gathered around to watch the battle between the two peerless experts. Seeing that the aftermath of their battle was enough to sweep away mountains, they couldn’t help but be shocked.

“What terrifying strength! Indeed, I’m not afraid of being ranked first on the Earth Rankings!” Someone sighed.

“Who is the other person? Why is he so familiar? I’ve never seen him before. I wonder where he came from.”

“Although this person was beaten by Gongsun Qi and escaped all the way, being able to remain undefeated under the God Killing Sword is enough to show that this person’s strength. I’m afraid he can only be ranked in the top ten on the spot, right?”

“Look, they seem to be going into the Everglades!” Someone cried out in alarm.

The Everglades of the Eastern Region was one of the most terrifying places in the Eastern Region. Would these two experts enter the Everglades?

Of course, Li Qing and Gongsun Qi weren’t that stupid. They had long heard of the name of the Everglades, and even Void Realm experts weren’t willing to enter. In the center of the Everglades, there was a terrifying and unparalleled vicious place-the Graveyard of the Corpse God!

They fought at the edge of the Everglades for a while, then took another turn, circled out of the Everglades, and headed in another direction.

The two of them fought and stopped along the way, and the bloody battle lasted for thousands of kilometers before they suddenly left. It had to be said that Gongsun Qi was truly determined and persistent. He chased after Li Qing all the way, but he was unwilling to let him off.

In fact, after fighting for so long, both of them were extremely exhausted, both mentally and physically reaching their limits. This was a true limit, and it would be very difficult for them to recover with ten thousand years of spirit milk and other treasures.

In the end, the two of them stood on the top of a mountain, facing each other from afar. Both of them were in a sorry state, and their bodies were stained with blood.

“After fighting for so long, I still haven’t been able to kill you. Looks like I really can’t kill you.” Gongsun Qi said.

“Didn’t you say that one person and one sword can kill me? Why did you give up so easily?” Li Qing smiled. He could tell that Gongsun Qi was already planning to retreat. Now that the two of them were almost at their limits, Li Qing felt that they were about to exhaust each other to death. Of course, he did not wish for Gongsun Qi to retreat just like that.

“You don’t need to use this kind of provocation. I won’t be fooled. When I want to retreat, I will retreat without any hesitation.” Gongsun Qi said coldly.

“Alas, it seems that not a single person who has cultivated to your level is an idiot. I originally thought that I would have a chance to consume you to death.” Li Qing sighed.

“Your ambition is not small. You actually want to kill the number one person on the Earth Rankings. I have to say, if you continue to fight, you will indeed have this chance.” Gongsun Qi was very calm.

“Unfortunately, I still can’t kill you.”

“What kind of unique technique did you cultivate? Every time you get injured, you can always recover quickly. This is too heaven-defying.” Gongsun Qi finally asked the question in his heart. Originally, he did not believe in evil, and felt that there should be a limit to this kind of supreme technique of healing injuries. As a result, after fighting for so long, he was still unable to kill the other party, and he had no choice but to admit defeat in his heart.

“Do you think I’ll tell you?”

“With this unique technique, I’m afraid no one in the Xiantian realm can kill you. I’ll retreat and seek the help of the sect elders. I’ll come back and settle the score with you later.” Gongsun Qi tossed out these harsh words and turned around to leave, disappearing from sight.

“It’s finally over.” Li Qing whispered to himself. A trace of exhaustion flashed through his eyes. In this protracted battle, he was even more exhausted than the other party. After all, his strength was relatively weak. Being suppressed and beaten was something that he could do nothing about.

Above his head, a large golden bird flew down and landed on Li Qing’s shoulder. It was Xiao Jin. It had been circling in the air above the two of them, not daring to descend. This terrifying power frightened it, so Li Qing ordered it to leave temporarily to avoid accidental injury.

Only now did it fly down and arch Li Qing’s neck affectionately.

“Let’s go find a place to rest.” Li Qing gently touched Xiao Jin’s bird head.

He left the place and found a suitable place to sit, recovering his tired spirit and nearly exhausted physical strength.

“Fighting Gongsun Qi is the most difficult battle I’ve ever fought, right?” Li Qing whispered to himself, “This battle has greatly benefited me!”

He sat there dumbfounded, feeling weak all over. In this protracted battle, his spirits had been tense. Now that he relaxed, it was the moment when his spirits relaxed the most.

Suddenly, he felt a burst of cold hair stand upright. He secretly shouted in his heart, “Not good, there is danger!”

A long sword that was close to nothingness stabbed towards him. Its speed was also extremely fast, and it stabbed towards the back of his head like a ghost.

Fortunately, Li Qing possessed divine sense and was able to discover it in advance. Otherwise, ordinary people would definitely not be able to dodge it.

Boom!

A large Yin Yang millstone appeared behind him, blocking off this strange sword that was bound to kill.

Li Qing turned around and looked closely. Wasn’t it Gongsun Qi?

Seeing this scene, Li Qing couldn’t help but curse, “Didn’t you leave? Why did you suddenly come back to assassinate me? Aren’t you too sinister?”

Seeing that his sword had been blocked, Gongsun Qi couldn’t help but reveal a disappointed expression, “Unfortunately, I couldn’t kill you. For some reason, my assassination technique seems to have lost its effectiveness on you.”

“Aren’t you too sinister? The number one on the grand list is actually so unscrupulous, using such an unscrupulous method.” Li Qing said.

“Do I still need to care about such a false reputation when I kill a successor of the Divine Dao? As long as I can kill you, I will be fine.” The corner of Gongsun Qi’s mouth revealed a trace of mockery as he turned around and hid in the jungle.

Judging from what he meant, it was obvious that he was prepared to stare at Li Qing for the rest of the time, ready to assassinate him at any time. Even if Li Qing had his divine sense and was able to detect danger ahead of time, the tiger would always nap. If he accidentally exposed a flaw, he would be fatally attacked by the other party.

“This fellow is really difficult to deal with! If an ordinary person encounters a rogue like him, they will definitely not be able to escape. Unfortunately, this move is useless against me.”

Li Qing took a deep breath and said, “True Dragon Transformation!”

Boom!

Infinite Spiritual Qi surged over. Li Qing transformed into a true dragon that was tens of feet tall and flew into the sky, disappearing into the boundless Azure Underworld.

Gongsun Qi walked out of the darkness and looked at Li Qing turning into a true dragon with a shocked expression, “Is this the Nine Transformations of True Spirit?” This fellow actually hid his trump card at such a time. How outrageous! If he wanted to escape, he could escape at any time! Could it be that you’ve been playing with me during this period of time? I thought that I would be able to kill him like this. I really underestimated the heroes of the world. ”

He couldn’t help but smile bitterly, feeling a little frustrated in his heart. Since his debut, he had never encountered such a difficult enemy. Not only did he possess two Dao Artifacts, he had also cultivated supreme techniques, and his methods were endless. In front of him, other than having an advantage in cultivation, he was far inferior in other aspects.

In the past, he had always defeated the strong with the weak, but now, he could not defeat the weak with the strong.

…

After transforming into a true dragon, Li Qing flew into the sky and flew towards the nearby city.

The largest city nearby was Swamp City. This city was built on the edge of the Everglades. Normally, if a martial artist wanted to enter the Everglades, they would usually pass through this city and trade here.

Walking along the bustling streets of Swamp City, Li Qing discovered that there were many shops here, filled with all kinds of materials, most of which were rare and precious in the outside world.

“There are so many precious materials here. They are all unique to the Everglades. Can I find some useful materials here?” Li Qing thought to himself.

He strolled around the city for a long time, and almost every shop would ask him about it, wanting to try his luck and see if he could find the materials he wanted.

Finally, in a small shop, Li Qing actually gained something.

“Feng Zhongye? We just happened to have this in our shop!” The shopkeeper’s eyes lit up.

“Oh? Can you take it out for a look?” Li Qing was delighted.

“Please wait a moment!” The shopkeeper walked towards the back hall. After a while, he took out a jade box and opened it. Inside, a palm-sized, light green leaf appeared in front of Li Qing.

This leaf faintly contained wind attribute power and was filled with spirituality. It was precisely the Wind Heavy Leaf that Li Qing was looking for. This was the core material used to cultivate the eighth level of the Nine Revolutions of the Divine Elephant!

“May I know how much this item is priced?” Li Qing asked.

“This item was consigned here by another customer. It does not belong to this shop. He did not set a price, but wanted to exchange it for something!” The shopkeeper said.

“What does he want in exchange?”

“He wants an ice attribute inner core, and it must be a precious exotic beast. Ordinary demonic beasts can’t do that. Its grade is at least at the seventh rank of the Monster King!” The shopkeeper said.

This requirement was not low. Ordinary ice attribute inner cores were easy to obtain, but precious exotic beasts were not easy to find.

Li Qing thought for a moment, and then his eyes suddenly lit up. In his interspatial ring, there was just such an inner core! Completely in line with the requirements!

He took out the inner core and said, “What do you think of this inner core?”

The shopkeeper took it over and looked at it. After recognizing it for a while, he was immediately shocked, “This … this is the inner core of the Ice Horned Dragon!” “This is the inner core of the Ice Horned Dragon!”

This inner core was obtained by Li Qing after killing the ice dragon in the Ancient God Pagoda. The Ice Horned Dragon is a branch of the Dragon Race. The Dragon Race is the most noble creature in the world, so it definitely meets the requirements.

“May I know if it meets the requirements?”

“Yes! Of course!” The shopkeeper smiled repeatedly and handed the jade box containing the Wind Heavy Leaf to Li Qing. The transaction was concluded from then on.

Li Qing got Feng Zhongye and was in a good mood. He left the shop and walked on the streets of the city, continuing to inquire about the materials he needed. It was a pity that his luck wasn’t very good after that. He had been busy all day and didn’t get any harvest.

In the evening, Li Qing found a restaurant and casually sat down to inquire about the news.

“Just now, Gongsun Qi fought against a mysterious man. That scene was truly wonderful. I wonder what kind of person it was!” Someone said.

“This person is somewhat familiar, but I don’t recognize him. He must be an unborn old monster. He relies on his tyrannical strength to block the sword.”

“Alright, stop guessing. When the Divine Slaughter Sword and the mysterious man are done fighting, they will tell us about this matter.”

“Speaking of which, where exactly is Li Qing hiding? After searching for an entire year, there is not a single trace of him!” Someone said.

“I heard that someone couldn’t find Li Qing. They were already impatient and prepared to fight with Jiangyuan City! They used this method to force Li Qing to appear!”

“Jiangyuan City? What kind of place is that…”

Li Qing sat on the table beside him and heard this sentence clearly. He was greatly shocked, “What? Someone wants to attack Jiangyuan City? How unreasonable!”
