Patriarch Qingyuan had sufficient reason to believe that the three Dao Artifacts would definitely win against this mysterious monster.

Although this colossus seemed to have a very powerful aura, it was probably just a scare. It was only superficial.

No matter how strong you are, can you still be stronger than an aisle?

Dao artifacts represented invincibility, let alone three Dao artifacts working together!

Very quickly, the Azure Wood Divine Cauldron, the Golden Emperor Sword, and the Mysterious Water Sword collided with the purple broadsword, emitting intense energy fluctuations that pierced through the nine heavens and illuminated the mountains and rivers.

Endless light and heat were emitted like stars colliding, space shattering, and a rain of fire descending from the sky.

Heaven and earth collapsed, and the scene was extremely terrifying.

The two sides stalled in the sky for a while. As the large purple saber slowly stretched out from the violet clouds, it completely revealed itself in the world. Its power had reached an astonishing level.

“Zhen! Mountain! River!”

Within the heavy purple clouds, a domineering voice resounded through the clouds. The purple broadsword instantly erupted with a resplendent light, pushing the three Dao Artifacts back.

“Impossible!” Patriarch Qingyuan found it hard to believe. He watched helplessly as the three Dao Artifacts were forced back into the sky.

He actually failed!

The three Void Realm experts roared towards the sky, trying their best to activate the power of the Dao Artifact, but they were still unable to change the outcome and were slowly suppressed.

In the end, they were unable to hold on, and all their strength was drained away. They were defeated like mountains, and were directly smashed into the ground by this incomparably tyrannical force, creating an incomparably large pit.

With their Dao Artifacts protecting them, they wouldn’t die so easily, but they were also seriously injured and didn’t have much strength to fight anymore.

“Run!”

They had already been frightened to death by this saber strike, and their souls had risen. How could they dare to stay here any longer? They immediately fled into the distance, panicking like a stray dog.

In the sky, the violet clouds quickly changed, turning into a ghost face that covered the sky and the sun. A cold gaze stared fixedly at the three enemies who had escaped.

“Go!”

The large purple saber appeared again and quickly extended out from the vortex. It was not as powerful as the previous saber, but it was still not to be underestimated. It fiercely slashed towards the ground.

Rumble!

The boundless earth was directly split open by an incomparably large crack that was bottomless and stretched endlessly.

A miserable scream rang out from the depths of the ground. Patriarch Youshui was the weakest. He was unable to withstand this attack and was directly annihilated by this slash.

The other two relied on the might of the Dao Artifact to barely withstand this attack. They lifted Patriarch Youshui’s primordial spirit and relics and disappeared into the endless underground, disappearing without a trace.

The ghost face in the sky changed again and gradually shrunk. It turned into a figure that stood across the sky and looked down. It was Li Qing.

His entire body was shrouded in a black robe, and he wore a grimace mask on his face. Almost no one could recognize him.

Just now, it was him who sent out two Zhenshan River, defeating the three Void Realm experts of the Eight Desolate Sect.

After sending out these two slashes, although he easily defeated the other party, Li Qing was not without losses. His True Essence had almost been exhausted.

Zhenshan River’s move consumed a lot of True Essence. While it was powerful, it had to pay an adequate price.

The more True Essence you input, the more powerful Zhenshan River will be. There is almost no upper limit. In order to defeat the three of them in one move, Li Qing poured all of his True Essence into them. Sure enough, he scared the three of them to death.

Otherwise, it would not be easy to defeat three Void Realm experts with Dao Artifacts in their hands.

The Void Realm with a Dao Artifact was completely different from the Void Realm without a Dao Artifact.

I believe this battle is enough to frighten Patriarch Qingyuan and Patriarch Jinxuan. They no longer dare to fight Li Qing. They can only hide in the Eight Desolate Mountains and rely on the grand formation to defend themselves.

That Patriarch Youshui was beaten to ashes by Li Qing’s move, but he shouldn’t have died completely. His primordial spirit was rescued by Patriarch Qingyuan, and the Profound Water Divine Sword was also taken away.

The Void Realm experts of the Eight Desolate Sect had all been defeated, so the troops on the ground below naturally weren’t worried and didn’t have much suspense.

Without Li Qing personally taking action, the City Lord of Cloud Continent flew out to preside over the overall situation and soon annihilated everyone’s enemies.

Li Qing ignored these things and flew straight into Yunzhou City. He came to the Liu Clan’s big house and saw Liu Ke’er and Wen Xiaoxian.

“Li Qing, you’re finally back!” Liu Ke’er rushed over and immediately threw herself into his embrace. Although Li Qing was still wearing a mask, she could recognize him at a glance.

“Ke’er, it’s been a long time!” Li Qing gently stroked her face, a gentle expression appearing in her originally cold eyes.

“Why are you wearing this mask? This dress is so strange.” Wen Xiao asked first.

Li Qing took off his mask and revealed his true colors. He sighed softly, “I am already a member of the Myriad Devil Sect. My identity is special, so of course I have to wear this mask.”

Both the mask and the black robe had the function of concealing the aura, and they could conceal the divine sense of Void Realm experts. If Li Qing had these pieces of equipment during the Battle of Ying Tian City that day, along with the concealment effect of the Demon Shadow Steps, he should be able to escape the pursuit of the enemy more easily.

“I see. Join the Devil Sect. You are still my junior brother. Anyway, I am not a righteous person.” Wen Xiao smiled first.

He also knew that Li Qing was the Demon Ancestor’s inheritor, so he naturally wouldn’t be too surprised about this matter. He had already prepared himself and didn’t reveal any unusual expressions.

The few of them sat down and talked about their experiences during this period of time.

“So you’re relying on Yin-yang Chaos Bottle to determine my life and death. That’s a good move. Thank you, Eldest Senior Brother.” Li Qing smiled.

“At that time, I only came up with this idea after a flash of light. I didn’t expect it to be really useful.”

“Right, during this period, I met Dongfang Bingyun.” Liu Ke’er told Li Qing about what happened to Dongfang Xue Qing.

“No wonder he was able to make such tremendous progress. He actually had such unbearable memories and underwent unbearable tempering.” Li Qing was thoughtful.

“She must be very surprised to know that you’re still alive. As for her hatred for you, she should have long since let it go. After all, she said it herself, so she can’t go back on her word.” Liu Ke’er smiled.

At this moment, the City Lord of Cloud Province flew over.

“Thank you so much for saving me. I’m very grateful … Eh, it’s you!” The Yunzhou City Lord used his divine sense to clearly see Li Qing’s face and couldn’t help but cry out.

Li Qing turned around and smiled, “Senior Brother Zhou, long time no see!”

“How is that possible? Your cultivation level … your strength! There has actually been such a huge change!” The Yunzhou City Lord said in disbelief.

“The world is unpredictable. Who would have thought that we would meet under such circumstances?”

The Yunzhou City Lord looked at Li Qing’s attire and recalled the large purple saber he saw. He quickly remembered the rumors in the world and asked in shock, “Could you be the legendary Demon Ancestor Inheritor?”

“That’s right, it’s me, Li Qing!”

“Heavens, this …” The Yunzhou City Lord didn’t even know what to say.

Li Qing said, “If Senior Brother Zhou feels that it is inconvenient, we can leave immediately. Furthermore, we will not involve you in this matter.”

“Where did you think you were? How could I chase you away?” The Yunzhou City Lord immediately said with a serious expression, “Even if you are a figure of the Devil Dao, you are still a disciple of Liu shi, my junior brother. Besides, you just saved our Yunzhou City once again, how can I do that ungrateful thing?”

“Moreover, how can I not know your character? You are definitely not a bad person, and how can you be compared to an ordinary Devil Dao character!”

Li Qing nodded slightly, “Senior Brother Zhou is still as upright as ever. I didn’t misjudge you. Thank you so much for taking care of the Liu Family during this period of time. Otherwise, with their current situation, they will definitely slowly fall into a state of despair.”

“They are all our own people. Why are you saying so many polite words? Now that the enemy has retreated, what should we do next? We must destroy the Eight Desolate Sect as soon as possible!”

“What happens next has nothing to do with me. It’s up to you guys to decide how you want to act. I won’t get involved in it anymore.”

“Why? Don’t you want to take revenge on the Eight Desolate Sect?” The Yunzhou City Lord couldn’t help but be stunned.

Li Qing shook his head and said, “I will definitely take revenge, but I will solve it by myself. I don’t need to join hands with you. Besides, since the ancient times, the Righteous and the Devil didn’t stand together. Do they really dare to cooperate with me because they know my ident. I.ty?”

“This … Alright, it seems like I can’t reveal your identity. Otherwise, I might cause trouble for you.” The Yunzhou City Lord couldn’t help but frown.

If anyone knew that the Demon Ancestor Inheritor Li Qing was here, they would definitely go to the Eastern Region Heavenly Alliance or the Central Region Great Zhou to report. Perhaps they would receive a good reward.

“It’s useless. The big purple saber I used just now is the Eternal Demon Saber. Someone should already be able to guess my identity.” Li Qing slowly shook his head.

“Then what should we do?” City Lord Yun Zhou said anxiously.

“It’s not a big deal. If someone really runs to contact those major powers, it will at least take a long time. There shouldn’t be any danger in the short term.”

“Moreover, even if there are experts who come to surround me, I may not be afraid of them. If there aren’t many people here, I can easily deal with them by myself. If there were many people here, our Myriad Devil Sect’s intelligence would have been thoroughly investigated long ago. It would have been enough to know in advance, and perhaps we could have fought a counter-attack.”

“Even if the worst comes to worst, I can still use all sorts of methods to escape. Senior Brother Zhou, you don’t need to worry about this.”

Yun Zhou City Lord nodded, “Alright, now your strength is much stronger than mine. You can only rely on yourself. Anyway, I can’t help you.” As for this war, on the surface, many forces in our Cloud Province will counterattack the Eight Desolates Sect, while you are hiding in the dark and acting alone. “This way, they won’t know your specific situation, and they won’t be sure if you are the Demon Ancestor’s successor. Ordinary people won’t tell on you.”

Li Qing nodded his head, “The most important thing is not to let outsiders know about my relationship with you, let alone let them know that Li Qing is the Li Qing from before. Otherwise, it might cause trouble for you.”

“Alright then. In the future, we will pretend to not know each other on the surface. I will pretend that I have never seen you before. Also, the relationship between you and the Liu Clan should be kept as confidential as possible.” Yun Zhou City Lord also agreed.

After the discussion was settled, the City Lord of Cloud Province would not stay here for long, so as to avoid being seen by others.

After Yun Zhou City Lord left, Liu Ke’er said, “I’ll release my parents and let them meet you first.”
