The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 703
Chapter 703 Solve Future Problems
Li Qing could have taken care of the life of the Diamond Battle Saint with a single saber strike, but he didn’t do so just to avoid causing trouble for the Liu Clan.
If he killed the Diamond Battle Saint in front of everyone, then the War King Sect would definitely treat the Liu Clan as their mortal enemy in the future and take revenge endlessly.
Li Qing’s identity was restricted, so it was naturally impossible for him to easily annihilate the War King Sect. Otherwise, if others saw the flaws, then all of his efforts would be in vain.
That was why he was temporarily released.
But letting Diamond Battle Saint go now was just an expedient measure, and it didn’t mean that he would be let go in the future.
Li Qing had already secretly made up his mind to find an opportunity to kill this Diamond Battle Saint!
He would not leave such a great calamity in this world. Void realm enemies were too dangerous, and those that could be eliminated should be eliminated as soon as possible.
When the Diamond Battle Saint died in the future, no one would suspect that this matter had anything to do with Li Qing. In the world’s perception, Li Qing did not possess the ability to contend against the Void Realm outside. He could do this only by relying on the power of the formation.
“Something unexpected happened. Everyone is amused.” Li Qing smiled at the crowd.
“It doesn’t matter. After this incident, we’ve finally regained our understanding of the Liu Clan’s strength. It’s truly unfathomable.” Everyone complimented him, and their attitudes changed from respect to reverence.
The difference between a master level character with strength and a master level character without strength was enormous.
With this array, at least no one dared to have any ill intentions towards the Liu Clan.
Everyone greeted each other for a while before bidding farewell and leaving. When they left, they were all laughing and laughing. The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves and were filled with a harmonious atmosphere.
The Divine Wind Sect stayed behind to discuss with Li Qing about refining spirit artifacts.
Soon, news of what had happened in Liu Mansion spread throughout the entire Cloud Continent.
Regarding Li Qing’s use of formations to suppress the Diamond Battle Saint, it was also spread to the Cloud Continent for a while and was praised by the people of the world.
To be able to defeat an Illusionary Realm expert, even if they relied on external objects, it could still be considered an extremely impressive achievement.
Many people even viewed the Liu Clan as a power that was close to first-rate.
At the very least, the clans that had Li Qing, Liu Ke’er, Wen Xiao and the others as their guardians did not seem to be much weaker.
Of course, if the Liu Clan wanted to be truly convincing, they still needed the Liu Clan’s own disciples to grow up.
Li Qing had already helped them to this point, and it could be said that he had done his utmost to be benevolent. In the next few days, they would have to rely on themselves.
As for War King Sect, he was reduced to a laughingstock. He was a dignified and first-rate power, so it was fine if he oppressed Li Qing. However, even the Void Realm warriors had mobilized their combat strength, and they were unable to complete the task in the end.
Half a month later, Li Qing successfully refined a spirit artifact and delivered it to the Divine Wind Sect.
This time, it was a spirit artifact tailored to the requirements of the Divine Wind Sect.
Li Qing also studied it for a long time and thought about it for a long time. Only when it was safe did he dare to truly refine it.
Although there was always the possibility of failure in artifact forging and he would not blame the artificer, it was best not to leave behind any failures in this first display of his abilities. That was why he was exceptionally cautious.
The Divine Wind Sect couldn’t help but feel incomparably pleasantly surprised when they received this spirit artifact. The spirit artifact they were asking for was a wind-attributed fan that matched the cultivation technique they were cultivating.
“It’s actually a mid-grade spirit artifact. It’s truly beyond our expectations! I originally thought that it would be good to be able to successfully refine a low-grade spirit artifact in one go.” The Divine Wind Sect Master was extremely excited.
“I still need you to personally test the power of this Spirit Fan. It’s not too late to accept it after making sure it’s correct.” Li Qing said.
“How can we not trust Master Li Qing’s skill? We can rest assured that the spirit artifact you forged will not be any weaker!” The Divine Wind Sect Master patted his chest and said.
Even so, they couldn’t wait to try it out for a while.
With a forceful fan, a powerful wind blew up, sweeping across the earth, instantly destroying everything within a radius of several hundred feet. The power of the wind was so powerful that they couldn’t help but be speechless.
“It’s truly too powerful. As expected of a mid-grade spirit artifact! Master Li Qing, your level is truly superb. Compared to those old seniors who have been famous for a long time, you are not inferior!” The people from the Divine Wind Sect praised him repeatedly.
Soon after, news of Li Qing refining a mid-grade spirit artifact spread throughout the entire Cloud Continent. It was rumored that the Divine Wind Sect was very satisfied with this. Its power had far exceeded their expectations, and it even bluntly said that Li Qing’s equipment refining skill was the best in the Cloud Continent.
Since then, Li Qing had thoroughly proven his abilities, becoming a triathlon master of artifact refining, pill refining, and talisman making.
This was much more powerful than a single aspect!
Moreover, the previous facts had proved that Li Qing not only possessed superb skills, but also possessed powerful strength to support him. The Four Symbols Sealing Formation could even suppress Void Realm experts, who would dare to provoke him?
After the wedding, Yun Zhou gradually regained its calm. Li Qing and Liu Ke’er enjoyed a rare period of leisure together. Every day, apart from cultivating, they would walk together by the lake to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
If they had time, they would also go out for a walk, visit the great mountains and rivers between heaven and earth, broaden their horizons, and observe the customs and customs of the people.
During this period, Li Qing found some time to start cultivating the newly acquired Heavenly Roc Transformation and White Tiger Transformation.
Entering the Yin-yang Chaos Bottle, the Golden-winged Roc was asleep. Li Qing approached its side and waved his hand. Then, he took out a drop of blood essence from its body.
Cultivating Heavenly Roc Transformation required a drop of Heavenly Roc Blood Essence!
Xiao Jin consumed the flesh and blood of the White Tiger every day, and his blood energy was abundant. Losing a drop of blood essence wouldn’t have much of an impact.
As for the White Tiger Transformation, what was needed was naturally the White Tiger’s blood essence. This was even simpler. He could directly take it out from the corpse of the White Tiger Holy Beast.
Li Qing took out two drops of blood essence and left Yin-yang Chaos Bottle to cultivate in seclusion.
The outside world gradually fell silent, and the Cloud Continent was completely restored to its calm state. Occasionally, someone would ask Li Qing to forge weapons, pills, or talismans.
If Li Qing had time, he would also find time to meet him. If the conditions are satisfactory enough, they will comply with their requests.
This was also a way to increase their influence. If Li Qing helped them, it would be equivalent to having a friendship.
Time passed in a hurry, and a few months passed. On this day, Li Qing suddenly walked out of seclusion and rushed into the sky, turning into a large golden bird that was several hundred feet tall.
He had already practiced the Heavenly Roc Transformation, so he wanted to try it out today.
After soaring in the sky for a while, Li Qing discovered that the Tianpeng Transformation was indeed worthy of its reputation. It was incredibly fast, more than doubling its original speed.
One had to know that his original speed was already fast enough. The True Dragon Transformation coupled with the Yin Yang Qi Harnessing Technique could not catch up to him at the Void Illusion Realm.
Now that he had transformed into a Heavenly Roc, his speed had doubled. He was almost at the limit of the Void Realm.
Of course, he didn’t know if it was a hidden restriction or some other reason, but Li Qing hadn’t reached the legendary speed of the Heavenly Roc.
If he really reached Heavenly Roc Extreme Speed, then he would be much faster than this. In the end, Li Qing had only used his unique technique to change. In the end, he was different from the real Heavenly Roc. There was still a gap between him and the real Heavenly Roc.
However, Li Qing was already satisfied with this improvement. From now on, there shouldn’t be many Void Realm experts in the world that could catch up with him.
His ability to survive was greatly improved.
After soaring in the sky for a while, Li Qing landed in the forest. He shook his body and turned into a white tiger that was more than a dozen lengths long.
It was the newly trained White Tiger Transformation.
A terrifying murderous aura filled the surroundings. The sharp aura caused the trees nearby to tear apart, causing numerous fine cracks to appear.
A furious roar rang out, shaking the surroundings, causing all beasts to stab and tremble.
This was the might of the sacred beast, the White Tiger. It possessed supreme killing power. The king of all beasts could subdue all demons and ghosts.
Li Qing opened his mouth and spat out a streak of white light. It shot towards him, destroying everything in an instant, tearing the ground several miles ahead in half. Its power was terrifying!
This kind of transformation ability was most suitable for battling in that complicated and changeable terrain, as if it was going to enter an uninhabited land.
After Li Qing had mastered these two transformations, he was satisfied and returned to the Liu Clan’s mansion.
He called Liu Ke’er, Wen Xiaoxian, and Princess Spirit Pearl over and handed them three items.
Wen Xiao first took a yellow stone-like object and sized it up for a long time before shouting, “This is … a Flaming Sun Stone!”
What Liu Ke’er got was a mirror. After hearing what Wen Xiao said, she quickly understood that this was one of the eight Dao Artifacts of the Eight Desolate Sect, the Serene Moon Mirror!
Princess Spirit Pearl was holding a green pearl in her hand. Although she did not know the origin of this pearl, she could still feel the overbearing might contained within it.
Li Qing smiled and said, “These Dao Artifacts are intelligent. At the beginning, I refused to yield. It took me a long time to use the Heavenly Saber to coerce and lure them into submission. You should communicate with the Dao Artifacts carefully and get their recognition very quickly.”
The Dao Artifact was spiritual, so it had to acknowledge its owner before it could display its power. Otherwise, it would be useless to obtain it.
Originally, these six Dao Artifacts were extremely tough, and they strongly resisted Li Qing. However, after Li Qing took out his Heavenly Saber, he would be able to completely destroy them. No matter how tough these six Dao Artifacts were, they still succumbed to such a threat in the end.
When Princess Ling Zhu heard this, she couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air, “Could this pearl be a Dao Artifact! An item from the Eight Desolate Sect? Are you really going to give it to me?”
“That’s right. This object is called the Jade Light Pearl. It combines attack and defense. It can emit a green light domain. The enemy is in the domain. Not only will their strength be suppressed, they will also be corroded by the green light at all times.” Li Qing explained.
“Although I am Xiaoxian’s wife, I don’t really have much friendship with Li Qing. Do you really want to give me such a precious thing?” Princess Lingzhu asked.
“I believe that the relationship between you and Eldest Senior Brother will not disappoint me. Of course, if you do anything bad in the future, I will personally take back the Jade Light Pearl.”
“I will definitely not let you down!” Princess Lingzhu took a deep breath and said solemnly.
“Then I won’t stand on ceremony and accept this Flame Sun Stone!” Wen Xiao said excitedly.
The Flame Sun Stone had a great effect on his cultivation. Moreover, his defensive power was extremely tyrannical. He could emit nine great halos of sunlight. Back then, Li Qing had also used his Heavenly Saber to cut through it for a long time.
Liu Ke’er did not have to say anything and accepted the Secluded Moon Mirror without hesitation. As Li Qing’s wife, there was no need for them to be so polite.
“If you want to use a Dao Artifact, you will need to consume a large amount of True Essence. You must take it easy. Don’t exhaust your True Essence at that time. Instead, the gains will outweigh the losses.” Li Qing warned.
He himself had a deep foundation, and his true essence was like a sea. Of course, he didn’t need to worry too much about these problems. However, none of the three people in front of him were as heaven-defying as him, so he had to pay attention at all times.
A few days later, Yin Qianyu quietly appeared beside Li Qing.
“What, have there been any changes?” Li Qing asked without turning his head.
“Not long ago, the Diamond Battle Saint left the War King Sect. I wonder where he went.”
“In what direction did he fly?”
“Southeast.”
“Isn’t that where Taihao Sword Sect is?” Li Qing thought for a moment and waved his hand, “I see. You can go down now.”
A moment later, a golden light rushed into the sky and disappeared at an unbelievable speed in the southeast direction.
Taihao Sword Sect, Diamond Battle Saint finally managed to meet the Soaring Sword Saint.
As one of the Tai Hao Twin Saints, the Soaring Sword Saint had been famous for a long time, and his strength had already reached the fifth level of the Void Realm. He was one of the best existences in the entire Cloud Continent.
“I wonder why War Saint is here?” The Soaring Sword Saint said slowly.
“Naturally, it’s for Li Qing’s sake.”
“Oh? Didn’t you already make the Heavenly Dao Oath? Do you still dare to cause trouble for him?” The Soaring Sword Saint couldn’t help but be stunned.
He must have heard of this matter before.
‘”Hehe, I don’t want to trouble him, but I can ask someone else to help me. It’s impossible for me to break my oath, right? Furthermore, I don’t really want to kill Li Qing. All I have to do is take my things back.” Diamond Battle Saint smiled.
He was robbed of his spatial ring by Li Qing, and even his equipment was stripped naked. Almost all of his wealth was lost in Li Qing’s hands, so he naturally tried his best to get it back.
“It’s very difficult for me to help you with this matter.” The Soaring Sword Saint shook his head.
“Why? Could it be that you’re afraid of Li Qing?” Diamond Battle Saint said.
‘”You don’t need to use this kind of provocation. Li Qing is a triathlon master of artifact refining, pill refining and talisman making. His future prospects are limitless. Perhaps in the future, he might even be asked to do so. How could he offend him so easily?”
“Moreover, even if I am willing to help, I’m afraid I won’t be able to break through his Four Symbols Sealing Formation. If I fall into it like you, wouldn’t that be a huge loss?”
“You don’t have to offend Li Qing. You can use words to convince him first. You can coerce and lure him. If you do both, he might agree.” The Diamond Battle Saint hurriedly said.
“I can’t. I have enough to eat and hold on to do such a thankless thing?” The Soaring Sword Saint waved his hand vigorously.
“How about this, if you can accomplish this for me, I will be willing to pay enough remuneration after the matter is completed, how about it?” The Diamond Battle Saint said unwillingly.
“No matter how high the price is, I’m too uncertain. Unless you can find another Void Realm expert to help, the two of you can put pressure on Li Qing together. Perhaps it will be effective.”
“Two people? Isn’t your senior brother enough?”
“No, my senior brother is currently cultivating in seclusion, trying to cross the sixth level of the Primordial Tribulation Fire. I don’t dare to disturb him casually.”
“If I can survive the sixth level of the Primordial Tribulation Fire, wouldn’t I be a terrifying existence at the seventh level of the Void Realm?” The Diamond Battle Saint sucked in a breath of cold air.
“That’s right. For this matter, my senior brother has been preparing for many years. I hope that he can succeed in one go, right?”
“Alright then, I can only go somewhere else to find help.” The Diamond Battle Saint stood up and left this place.
Soon after, he flew into the sky and rushed into the distance. Not long after, he flew out of the Cloud Continent’s border and entered the Cangzhou Earth Realm.
Void realm experts could fly, so their range of activities was very wide. Crossing the continent was just a normal thing.
Diamond Battle Saint had some friends from the Void Realm in several nearby states, so he wanted to ask them for help.
Not long after he entered the Cangzhou Earth Realm, he suddenly felt that the sky had instantly darkened. He immediately raised his head and couldn’t help but be shocked. He saw that the sky above his head was already covered with numerous purple clouds at some unknown time.
Seeing the purple clouds, the Diamond Battle Saint’s face turned pale as he cried out, “Li Qing, the Demon Ancestor’s inheritor!”
“That’s right, it’s me!” The purple clouds turned into an incomparably huge ghost face.
“We don’t seem to have much enmity, do we? Why are you stopping me here?” Diamond Battle Saint said calmly.
“Didn’t you all want to snatch my Dao Tool from me during the Eight Desolate Sect’s previous battle? I have always harbored a grudge against you! Today, I finally have the chance to catch you!”
“So it’s because of this trivial matter. I’m willing to apologize to you and let me live. How about it?”
“It’s impossible to let you go. Die!” A large purple saber extended from the purple clouds and slashed towards the Diamond Battle Saint!
There was no suspense in the end. Although the Diamond Battle Saint fought back with all his might, he was still unable to resist the might of Li Qingtian’s saber. His body was directly split into two.
“I am unwilling! I am a saintly expert, and I just died here!” The Diamond Battle Saint roared towards the sky. His vitality was extremely tenacious, and he wouldn’t die so easily.
“In order to let you die and understand, I’ll let you see the true face of the person who killed you.” Li Qing walked out of the cloud and took off his mask, revealing his true face.
“It’s you!” The Diamond Battle Saint shouted loudly and widened his eyes. Before he could say anything, he was smashed into pieces by Li Qing’s palm and was completely annihilated.
