The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 709
Chapter 709 See You Again, White Snake
As the Sword Sect experts retreated, they were desperately suppressing the purple energy. However, they still felt that their vitality was slowly fading away, and a sense of despair arose in their hearts.
“It’s useless. There’s no need to resist.” Li Qing’s voice was cold as he slashed out again.
The opponent basically had no ability to resist. He wanted to escape but was powerless. His body was split into two.
A primordial spirit floated out of the corpse with a frightened expression. It quickly fled into the distance at an incredible speed.
Li Qing quietly watched as his primordial spirit left. He did not use the Slaying Ghost God to kill the other party, because once he did so, he might not be able to obtain the information he wanted.
Very quickly, this primordial spirit successfully flew into the sky and disappeared.
After an unknown amount of time, this primordial spirit’s energy was exhausted. It had already flown a thousand miles away, so it had no choice but to rest for a moment.
The speed at which his primordial spirit escaped was extremely fast. As long as he didn’t kill him on the spot, it was basically impossible for him to catch up.
“Li Qing! That’s outrageous! After I return this time, I will definitely take revenge! I will take revenge!” This primordial spirit roared angrily.
“Really? You want to avenge me?” Li Qing’s figure walked out of the void.
“How is that possible? Why are you so fast?” That person widened his eyes and said in disbelief.
Li Qing smiled faintly. In the past, he might not be able to catch up, but after cultivating the Heavenly Roc Transformation, his speed was much faster.
If his primordial spirit continued to fly, Li Qing naturally wouldn’t be able to catch up. The problem was that the power of the primordial spirit was not infinite. After exhausting it, it could only stop. It was not surprising for Li Qing to catch up with him.
“Don’t act recklessly. I am an elder of the Sword Sect. If you dare to kill me, the Sword Sect will definitely not stop with you!” That person said with a fierce expression.
“Don’t tell me that if I don’t kill you now, the Sword Sect won’t be my enemy?” Li Qing approached step by step with a cold expression. He extended his hand and controlled this primordial spirit.
“Spare my life. I will definitely not be your enemy in the future. I can even help you search for information within the Sword Sect.” This primordial spirit also had no backbone, so he immediately begged for mercy.
“I heard that the Sword Sect’s experts are as sharp as swords, moving forward without hesitation. Why are they begging me for mercy today?” Li Qing sneered.
“Who cares about the sword dao? A Void Realm expert has five hundred years to live. I don’t want to die so early.”
“Tell me, how did Taiyin Sword Master die back then?” Li Qing asked.
“If I tell you, can you let me live?”
“Impossible. Letting you go is equivalent to letting a tiger return to the mountains. I will not leave behind the life of such an enemy.” Li Qing said very frankly.
“Since that’s the case, then don’t even think about getting any secrets from me!” The man said in despair.
“Forget it, I’ll search my soul directly.” Li Qing activated the Soul Searching Technique.
‘”Ah–” The other let out a miserable scream.
“A Void Realm expert’s primordial spirit is incomparably stable. It won’t be that easy to search my soul!” This person struggled to resist, making Li Qing’s Soul Searching Technique somewhat unbearable.
“Looks like you’re quite energetic, but do you think I can’t do anything to you?”
In the following period of time, Li Qing slowly tortured this primordial spirit. Only after it was extremely fragile and on the verge of death did he activate the Soul Searching Technique again.
This time, the other party no longer had the will to resist, and the soul search was very smooth.
For example, those core secrets, such as the Sword Sect’s cultivation techniques, would definitely not be found.
However, the death of Taiyin Sword Master that year was not a big secret, and there were no restrictions placed on it. Li Qing quickly found some information from it.
“Daomerge? Sneak attack?” Li Qing’s eyes narrowed.
“So that’s how it is! They took advantage of Taiyin Sword Master’s Daomerge to launch a sneak attack, causing her to fail in her Daomerge and thus perish from the Daomerge.”
At the peak of the Void Realm, when one reached the Pure Yang Primordial Spirit realm, if one wanted to break through to the next realm, one had to begin to comprehend the Grand Dao of Heaven and Earth.
If he successfully comprehended the Grand Dao of Heaven and Earth and combined it with the Grand Dao, he would be able to reach the Dao Realm.
However, this trial was incomparably dangerous, because once the Daomerge failed, he would undoubtedly die. Therefore, he absolutely could not be disturbed in the Daomerge.
“No wonder Taiyin Sword Master’s body didn’t have any wounds. His body was so complete, and he still had time to escape to Lianyun Mountain Range, leaving behind the lunar inheritance. So it was caused by the failure of the Daomerge!”
After failing in the Daomerge, he would not immediately perish. There was a certain amount of time before he died, so he could calmly arrange the aftermath.
Because of this, Sword Sect could not find Taiyin Sword Master’s corpse.
“However, everyone’s Daomerge will be kept strictly confidential and will not be leaked out easily. How can the Sword Sect find her Daomerge time so accurately?”
“Could it be that there was a spy inside the Lunar Sword Palace? Could it be that person betrayed Taiyin Sword Master?”
Li Qing recalled that one of the four Void Realm experts from the Lunar Sword Palace had returned to the Sword Sect afterwards to take charge of the Lunar Sword Meridian.
From this, one could confirm that this mole was definitely the Void Realm expert who had returned to the Sword Sect.
It was probably because she leaked the news of Taiyin Sword Master’s Daomerge that Sword Sect’s experts accurately found the right time to launch a sneak attack, causing Taiyin Sword Master’s Daomerge to fail.
According to the memories of this primordial spirit, Taiyin Sword Master was the one who ambushed Sword Master Wushuang in the past!
“This Sword Master Wushuang was outside Ying Tian City that day. From the looks of it, he doesn’t look like a good person. He is indeed a sinister and cunning person!” Li Qing snorted coldly.
“The dignified Sect Master Sword Sect, who holds the ears of the bull of Righteous path, actually ended up like this. He’s probably no better than us Diabolism characters, right?”
Li Qing cleaved this Primordial Spirit Saber and returned to Hundred Flowers Valley after finishing this matter.
Looking at everything here, he knew that this place had already been exposed. More and more martial artists would come here, and it would be very difficult for them to remain quiet.
“Since that’s the case, then let it disappear forever, lest the world tarnish the peaceful land outside this world.” Li Qing struck out with his palm, flattening the Hundred Flowers Valley.
Afterwards, he arrived at a mountain not far away. It was at this place that Li Qing and Liu Ke’er were chased by a white snake and jumped off the cliff. They almost fell to their deaths.
Now that he was powerful, he naturally had to return to take revenge.
In the battle between Elder Liu and White Snake, White Snake was defeated and fled deep underground, leaving behind a huge hole.
Li Qing followed this hole and flew deeper underground, tracking the location of the white snake.
Some places had collapsed, and the passageways were intermittent. Li Qing had spent a lot of effort, and he didn’t know where to go. Finally, he saw the light in front of him and came out from underground again.
The place where he came out was another valley, clearly still within the Lianyun Mountain Range.
With a sweep of his divine sense, the corner of Li Qing’s mouth curved into an arc, “I’ve finally found you. After so many years, it seems that there hasn’t been much change in strength.”
The white snake was hiding in a large mountain and was sleeping soundly. Suddenly, he felt a huge force coming from outside. Then, he lost control of his body and directly broke through the mountain wall. He was sucked out.
Li Qing stretched out his Heaven Concealing Hand and controlled the White Snake in his hand.
The white snake was suddenly attacked like this and woke up from its sleep. For a moment, it was still a little dumbfounded, unable to figure out the situation.
Only when he saw that he was being grabbed by someone did he reveal a trace of panic and pleaded a few times.
Its voice was clear and crisp, like the cry of a baby.
“Little White Snake, do you still remember who I am?” Li Qing asked.
The white snake’s eyes revealed a trace of doubt. Looking at Li Qing’s face, it was obvious that he no longer remembered his identity.
A demonic beast didn’t expect it to have a strong memory.
Li Qing waved his hand and recreated the scene from back then. This was the scene of the Lunar New Year Profound Snake chasing after Li Qing and Liu Ke’er in the past.
When White Snake saw this scene, its eyes immediately widened. It looked at Li Qing in disbelief and began to cry again, making a crisp sound.
Li Qing didn’t understand what it said, but he could guess what it meant. He was probably shocked that Li Qing was the young man it had played with back then. Wasn’t the difference in strength too great?
It didn’t matter if he didn’t understand what the demonic beast said. Li Qing stretched out his divine sense and came into contact with the White Snake’s thoughts. He would soon be able to communicate with it.
“Why did you tease the two of us back then? You didn’t kill us directly, but forced us to jump into the cliff instead?” Li Qing asked.
“I have no ill intentions towards you. The reason I forced you to jump off the cliff back then was mainly because I wanted you to enter the valley and accept Master’s inheritance.” White Snake said.
“Master’s inheritance? In that case, the Lunar Sword Master is your master. Are you her pet?”
“That’s right. After the death of my master, I was left alone. I could only guard the valley and hope that the fated people would enter to receive the inheritance. At that time, I knew that there was a pond below the valley. It was absolutely impossible for you to fall to your deaths, because I came out of that pond.”
Li Qing thought about it carefully. At that time, the pond that jumped off the cliff was a distance away from the Hundred Flowers Valley. In the middle was a circular passage. It must have been drilled by this white snake.
In this way, once he thought back to the identity of this Lunar Profound Snake, he was basically certain that what it said should be the truth.
“This High Immortal, I didn’t have any ill intentions at that time. Do you think you can spare my life? I’m still very young now. I’ve only lived for a few hundred years, and I’m still in a young age. I don’t want to die so quickly.” As he spoke, he actually began to cry.
Only a few hundred years ago was he still in his infancy. These primordial mutants were indeed blessed by heaven. Li Qing was speechless.
“Alright, I didn’t say I was going to kill you. However, death is avoidable. There is no escape from death. Follow me and serve for me in the future.” Li Qing said.
“Are you saying that I should recognize you as my master?” White Snake asked.
“No, I don’t need you to recognize me. However, since that girl from back then obtained the lunar inheritance, you should recognize her as your master.”
“I see. That’s good. Since that girl has obtained the Lunar New Year inheritance, it’s only right that I recognize her as my master.” White Snake agreed without hesitation.
“It can be considered tactful.” Li Qing nodded in satisfaction and put the white snake into the Yin Yang Chaos Bottle.
