The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 636
Chapter 636 Martial Arts Congress (27)
Ten miles away, in a hidden cave, a group of people were hiding here, watching closely the scene in the towering mirror.
“Sigh, I failed. What a pity!” The disciples of the Towering Heaven Sect sighed with regret.
The best opportunity was just missed. The other party was wary, and if he wanted to sneak attack again in the future, it would probably not be that easy.
Never would he have thought that Li Qing’s vitality would be so strong. Even if he was attacked like this, he wouldn’t die. He would still be able to recover from a bloody hole in his body.
The attack just now had gathered the strength of a dozen or so disciples of the Towering Heaven Sect to stimulate the power within the replica of the Towering Heaven Mirror, producing a beam of mirror light.
Although the replica of the Towering Mirror was not as powerful as the real Towering Mirror, it was still a top-grade spirit artifact-level treasure. With full power, the power of the Mirror Light could be comparable to that of a mid Void Realm cultivator!
If any of them were struck by this mirror light, they would probably be instantly annihilated. Even the strongest Tungus and Songzan were no exception.
As a result, there was a bloody hole in Li Qing’s chest, as if he was a fine person, and he could fly everywhere, scaring them to the point their faces turned ashen.
Is this still human? Could it be some kind of demon?
“To be enemies with such a person, your scalp will go numb at the thought of it. Isn’t this bet certain to lose? Tungus shouldn’t be his opponent either, right?” Someone’s expression was worried.
“There’s still a chance. Just kill him during the World King Diagram. We’re in the dark and he’s in the open. I don’t believe there’s no chance of a sneak attack!”
At this moment, the scene in the Towering Mirror changed again. After standing in the void for a long time, Li Qing actually flew towards this direction.
“Not good, he’s coming here. Could it be that he found traces of us?” Song Zan cried out.
“How is that possible? We are ten miles away. Even if a Void Realm expert possesses divine sense, it is impossible for them to discover us so quickly. It should be just a coincidence, right?”
“Never underestimate the enemy. If he really finds out, it will be a catastrophe that will never be recovered. Let’s quickly leave this place!” Song Zan said solemnly.
“Do you need to be so careful? I don’t believe he can really discover us.”
“Li Qing, this enemy is too terrifying. I have to guard against him. No matter how cautious you are, you can’t be wrong! Just listen to me and leave!” Song Zan said sternly.
Seeing Song Zan’s resolute attitude, the crowd naturally did not object. They immediately left this place and fled into the distance.
A moment later, a palm that covered the sky descended from the sky and bombarded the cave, instantly flattening it.
Li Qing’s figure appeared in the sky and swept his gaze around. A cold light flashed in his eyes, “How fast did you escape! Next time, you won’t be so lucky!”
He circled around the area a few times, but he didn’t find any enemies. He quickly left.
Returning to his original place, Li Qing descended to the ground. At this moment, he had returned to normal. The purple light in his eyes disappeared, and his face no longer had that ferocious expression.
Liu Ke’er immediately ran over and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Li Qing’s injuries on his chest had recovered by seventy-seven to eighty-eight percent.
“You really scared me to death.” She hugged Li Qing tightly and couldn’t help but cry.
“It’s fine. It’s just a few mice. They can’t hurt me.” Li Qing smiled and gently stroked her hair.
“The people of the Towering Sect are too excessive. They rely on a sneak attack to kill Li Qing all the time!” Xiao Bai said angrily.
“They won’t give up. They will definitely find an opportunity to sneak attack in the future. At that time, I won’t let them escape.” Li Qing said calmly.
If it weren’t for the Myriad Devil True Body, they would probably have killed him this time! The two sides were already enemies of life and death, unable to resolve them.
Originally, Li Qing rarely took the initiative to kill people in this World King Diagram. He usually crushed the other party’s token and moved it out of the World King Diagram.
The disciple of the Towering Heaven Sect that he had captured earlier had also let him off.
However, this time, the Towering Sect’s actions had completely angered Li Qing. We absolutely cannot let them off so easily!
“We have to find an opportunity to get rid of them. Otherwise, it would be really dangerous to sneak attacks like this all the time.” Wen Xiao said first.
“Let’s talk according to the situation. Sooner or later, they will reveal their flaws.” Li Qing said in a deep voice.
…
After this incident, Li Qing became more and more cautious. He always had some strength left in the process of battle to avoid being ambushed by the Towering Sect.
On the surface, however, he pretended to be miserable, revealing great flaws in order to seduce the people of the Towering Heaven Sect and determine their location.
However, the people from Towering Heaven Sect were also very cautious and did not fall for it easily. In this period of time, they had never attacked Li Qing again, as if they had disappeared out of thin air.
“Perhaps it’s because they’re scared. They don’t dare to sneak attack us anymore.” Wen Xiao said first.
“Nobody has been peeping around for a while now. Could it be that the people from the Towering Sect have really given up?”
“Alright, stop guessing. As long as we remain vigilant at all times, no matter how cunning the enemy is, they won’t be able to hurt us.” Li Qing said.
As time passed, their cooperation became more and more proficient, and the number of Tier 4 Void Beasts they killed also increased.
In the battle, Li Qing was the main force in charge of resisting the Tier 4 Void Beast.
On the other hand, Dongfang Xueqing launched an attack in the sky, harassing the Void Beast. Every time Li Qing couldn’t hold on, she would be the one to take over.
Ye Lin was hiding nearby, waiting for the right time. Whenever an opportunity arose, a fatal blow would be launched.
As for Xiao Bai, it was mainly to help Li Qing conceal his aura, approach the Tier 4 Void Beast, and take the initiative.
Liu Ke’er was not idle either. The effect of releasing the Nine Heavens Spirit Wind and the Seamless Dipper Fiend from the side could not be underestimated.
As for Wen Xiaoxian, Wind Lightning Swordsman, and Chang Wudi, they didn’t have any special skills. They could only stand aside and stare at them with envy as they watched these people fight against Void Realm existences.
Just like that, their team continued to hunt down Tier 4 Void Beasts, and their scores were getting higher and higher.
As for the other martial artists, their efficiency was much slower. They were no match for Tier 4 Void Beasts. They could only fight for them from humans, which was a lot worse.
Time passed quickly. More than half a year had passed, and World King Tu’s trip was coming to an end.
During this time, the members of their team formed a deep friendship. Although Dongfang Xueqing still couldn’t let go of Li Qing and still had a cold face, her attitude towards the others was much better.
Their points were basically more than 7,000 to 8,000 points. It could be said that this promotion was a matter of certainty, so there was no need to worry.
Not only did he advance, he could even be said to be ranked at the top. Perhaps very few people in the World King Diagram would be able to achieve such a score.
There were only so many Void Beasts, and they would not be able to kill all of them. They could only find someone even more powerful to kill.
However, there were very few people who could hunt Tier 3 and Tier 4 Void Beasts, so it was very difficult for them to obtain high marks.
As for robbing the inner core in the hands of humans, it was up to luck. Perhaps after working for a long time, other people would disappear without a trace after crushing the token, so they could only stare at him.
No one had been able to kill a Tier 5 Void Beast. It was comparable to an existence at the peak of the Void Realm. The difficulty was simply too great. It was simply impossible to complete it.
Thousands of years had passed since the founding of the Martial Arts Convention, and no one had been able to kill a Tier 5 Void Beast.
The difference in strength was too great, and it was simply not something Xiantian experts could deal with.
Even a large group of people could not form a team. No matter how many ants there were, it was impossible for them to bite a dragon to death.
Li Qing had once encountered a Tier 5 Void Beast. It was a divine bird that flew across the sky. The terrifying aura made his scalp go numb when he looked at it from afar.
If there was a Heavenly Saber, Li Qing might consider killing a Tier 5 Void Beast. With Xiao Bai’s innate divine ability, he might really succeed.
After all, the Void Beast didn’t have any intelligence. It only relied on its instincts to do things. Whether it could dodge the sneak attack of the Heavenly Saber wasn’t certain.
However, there were countless people watching the situation outside. He did not dare to take out his Heavenly Saber, so he could only give up on this choice.
Killing a Tier 5 Void Beast and accomplishing a feat that no one had accomplished in thousands of years was an exciting thing to think about.
But this must also be done without any danger. Since the risk was too great, then the gains were not worth the losses, so he could only give up.
Speaking of which, Li Qing was surprised that the people from the Towering Heaven Sect could endure not attacking until now. During this period of time, he had played the role of being seriously injured countless times. This was already a huge flaw, but none of them were able to attract their attention.
Could it be that he had completely given up?
“If you still want to make a move, then you can only leave the World King Diagram at the last moment.” Li Qing secretly guessed.
“At the last moment, when we are about to leave the World King Diagram, we will launch a fatal attack. Even if I discover their tracks, the time has come. Everyone must move out. It will no longer be possible to launch a chase after them.”
“In the Great Zhou Imperial City, you are not allowed to kill anyone. They are safe.”
“What a group of sinister fellows. I wonder what kind of killing move they will prepare!” Li Qing frowned.
“Forget it. As long as they remain vigilant, they won’t be able to succeed.”
As time passed, the battle within the World King Diagram became even more intense. In order to advance to the top thousand, many martial artists fought with all their might.
Fortunately, Li Qing’s team was not weak. Even if they encountered the alliance of several other major powers, they did not have to worry about being robbed.
Naturally, they didn’t dare to provoke Li Qing and Dongfang Xueqing, the two top and second ranked great divine figures.
At this moment, everyone suddenly heard a rumbling sound coming from afar. It was as if an earthquake mountain was shaking. Smoke and dust engulfed most of the sky.
Not long after, a cyan divine bull charged towards him. Its body was several hundred feet tall, like a moving mountain, crushing everything wherever it passed.
The small hills collapsed and shattered into pieces after being struck by such a fierce collision.
Judging from its might, this green bull was clearly a Tier 5 Void Beast!
It was comparable to an existence at the peak of the Void Realm, and there was almost nothing that could stop it.
However, what puzzled everyone was why did this green bull suddenly go crazy and charge in this direction?
At this moment, a bright mirror suddenly appeared above the divine bull and shot a beam of mirror light towards the head of the divine bull.
This was an imitation of the towering mirror!
Although the power of this towering mirror was not bad, it was unable to deal any damage to this Tier 5 Void Beast. It would only anger it and immediately smash the mirror into pieces.
“Not good, the people of the Towering Sect have lured this Tier 5 Void Beast over here!” Li Qing’s expression changed drastically.
“They want to lure this green bull to kill us!” Dongfang Xueqing said coldly.
“Borrowing a knife to kill! What sinister intentions!”
It had to be said that this move was very effective. Using the towering mirror to lure the green bull was not only safe, but also a Tier 5 Void Beast would definitely fall for it.
Those people’s bodies were located ten kilometers away. With Qing Niu’s stupid intelligence, it was impossible for him to search for them. Instead, he would continue to move in the direction of the towering mirror.
It was precisely in this way that they were able to lure this green bull over here.
“What should we do? This Tier 5 Void Beast is not far from us. If it locks onto our target, I’m afraid it will chase us to the ends of the earth.” Wen Xiao said in a deep voice.
“As long as it doesn’t lock onto the target, Xiao Bai!” Li Qing gestured.
Xiao Bai immediately understood and waved his hand, causing a white mist to rise up around them, disappearing their bodies.
Very quickly, Qing Niu rushed to this place. As a result, the people from Towering Heaven Sect knew that Li Qing and the others were nearby, so they controlled the mirror to appear around them continuously, seducing Qing Niu into a rampage.
Under such constant teasing, the green bull began to wantonly destroy this place, smashing mountains and rivers into pieces, causing heaven and earth to collapse.
“What should we do? They’ve been leading the Green Bull to this place to cause damage. They might accidentally hit us!” Ye Lin said angrily.
Xiao Bai whispered, “Big Brother Li Qing, why didn’t you kill Qing Niu?”
“I can’t kill him!” Li Qing helplessly said, “I don’t dare to use the Heavenly Saber. How can I kill a Tier 5 Void Beast?”
“I’m covering for someone! Have you forgotten my illusion divine ability?”
Li Qing’s eyes lit up, “Yi, that’s right, why didn’t I think of this?”
“Hurry up, take advantage of the fact that the Azure Bull is attracted to the Towering Mirror. If you sneak attack, you will definitely be able to make a contribution!”
Li Qing pondered for a moment and gritted his teeth. In the end, he nodded and decided to kill the green bull.
Right now, a white mist filled the sky, and smoke and dust billowed. It was impossible to clearly see what was happening inside. As long as Li Qing rushed in at that time, before outsiders could react, Qing Niu might die by the knife.
What made Li Qing hesitate the most was, would Emperor Zhou Majesty know about this? After all, this Realm King Diagram was the treasure of the Zhou Emperor, and he had control over everything. Perhaps he could see everything clearly through the clouds.
However, Li Qing remembered Xiao Bai’s innate ability. He was able to illuminate everything. Even a Dao Realm expert might not be able to see through the World King Diagram, right?
Back then, in the world of white clouds in the Spirit Sea, the sea of flowers that Xiao Bai had created had all been created from Spiritual Qi. It was so lifelike that it was impossible to tell whether it was real or fake.
Even if he used his divine sense to scan it, it was still difficult to tell.
In the end, he still crushed the petals with his hands and turned them into spiritual energy. Only then did he see the clue.
“Alright, I’ll immediately take out my Heavenly Saber. Help me transform it!” Li Qing whispered.
The clouds became deeper and deeper, covering everything here. The outside world could not see what was happening here clearly.
With a flash of purple light, the Heavenly Saber appeared in Li Qing’s hand. Xiao Bai immediately stretched out his hand and the Heavenly Saber immediately turned into an ordinary wooden stick.
“Let’s go!” Li Qing’s figure gradually vanished and disappeared into the air, slowly approaching the green bull.
At this moment, the green bull was irritable and had been unable to destroy the annoying mirror. As a result, it had been destroying the environment here and everything around it had been shattered.
Taking advantage of its attention being attracted by the mirror, Li Qing instantly appeared on Azure Bull’s neck and slashed down fiercely with the Heavenly Saber in his hand.
In the outside world, everyone’s attention was attracted by this scene.
“A Tier 5 Void Beast is equivalent to an existence at the peak of the Void Realm. Even without any intelligence, it is not something Xiantian experts can contend against. This time, Li Qing and Dongfang Xueqing are in trouble!” Someone said.
“It has to be said that the group of people from the Towering Sect are truly too sinister. They actually used this method to borrow a knife to kill people! As for themselves, they are hiding in the distance to watch a good show!”
“That area is already enveloped by white mist. We can’t see the figures of those people for the time being, but I think they must be thinking of some way to escape from this place, right?”
“If we don’t flee, if we continue like this, we’ll be affected by the violent attacks of the Green Bull sooner or later. Once we’re targeted by the Green Bull, it won’t be that easy to escape.”
At this moment, everyone saw the scene in the World King Diagram change again, and the white mist gradually dissipated.
Moreover, the azure bull inside had actually lost its movement and its breath.
The scene instantly quieted down.
“What’s going on? Where’s the green bull? Why did the white mist disappear?” Everyone was puzzled.
When the white mist gradually dissipated, the scene inside finally appeared in front of everyone.
A huge green bull corpse was lying on the ground. Li Qing stood horizontally in the void, holding the head of the green bull in his hand. It was like the Bloody Demon God, filled with terrifying deterrence.
As time passed, the green bull’s corpse was slowly disintegrating into nothingness. Soon, it completely dissipated, leaving behind only a Tier 5 inner core.
However, this scene shocked everyone, deeply imprinted in their minds!
“How is this possible! A Tier 5 Void Beast actually died just like that? It was killed by Li Qing!” Everyone cried out.
“How did he do it? Absolutely impossible! A Tier 5 Void Beast can compare to a peak Void Realm cultivator. How could it be killed by Li Qing?”
“A feat that no one has accomplished for thousands of years has been accomplished by Li Qing. He is destined to go down in history!”
Everyone was in an uproar. Some were excited, some were excited, some were incredulous, and some were shouting loudly.
