The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 801
Chapter 801 Shadow Battle Star (5)
Returning to the Primordial Warship, Li Qing couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. It didn’t matter if he killed Daoist Dark Star or not, he could still be considered safe now.
After being shot by the Immortal Slaughter Arrow, Daoist Dark Star had been standing there dumbfounded, not knowing if he was alive or dead. Logically speaking, this Daoist Dark Star did not possess a perverted physical body like Li Qing, nor did he possess an undying primordial spirit. He should be unable to resist the might of the Immortal Slaughter Arrow.
Back then, Yan Zu was able to lead the Immortal Slaughter Arrow in killing Dao Realm experts, so Li Qing should be able to succeed this time.
However, this Daoist Dark Star was at least a Dao Realm expert, and he didn’t know what kind of methods he possessed. Perhaps, he could block this Immortal Slaughter Arrow. If Li Qing rashly stepped forward, he might have fallen into the trap of the other party.
These Dao Realm experts had lived for countless years. If Li Qing thought that he could do whatever he wanted with a single Immortal Slaughter Crossbow, then he would definitely fall on it.
Daoist Dark Star’s eyes were staring at Li Qing. His eyeballs popped out and widened. There was unwillingness, anger, and confusion in them. In short, all sorts of emotions were contained within, making Li Qing feel horrified.
After staring at him for a moment, Daoist Dark Star fell straight down and floated in the endless darkness of the universe.
“Is he dead?” Li Qing didn’t dare to relax in the slightest at all. His eyes were fixed on that spot. Even when he saw Daoist Dark Star fall, he still didn’t relax his vigilance.
“If this Daoist Dark Star is faking his death to lure me out, wouldn’t that be a trap? But how do you know if this Daoist Dark Star is alive or dead?” Li Qing was a little embarrassed.
He wasn’t in a hurry to confirm Daoist Dark Star’s life and death. Instead, he returned to the Primordial Warship’s core control room to discuss with Ancient Desolate Lord.
“Brat, how did you do it?” When Ancient Desolate Lord saw Li Qing return, he immediately said impatiently.
“Didn’t I say that before? This brat possesses a very special item that can pose a huge threat to Dao Realm experts. However, he has never tested it before. I wonder how powerful it is.” Li Qing said.
“A mere crossbow arrow can kill a Dao Realm expert? Don’t lie to me!” Ancient Desolate Lord said doubtfully.
With his eyesight, he could clearly see that the Immortal Slaughter Crossbow was not a dao artifact at all, not even a spirit artifact. There was practically no special aura on it, and he could not find any traces of it.
However, it was such an ordinary item that actually killed a Dao Realm expert! Of course, Daoist Dark Star’s life and death were unknown, and he was still unable to confirm this point. At the very least, he could know that this thing posed a huge threat to Dao Realm experts.
Such a situation had simply overturned Ancient Desolate Lord’s perception.
Li Qing smiled and said, “Senior, don’t look at this Immortal Slaughter Crossbow. However, there is a Demon God level inner core on it! After that attack, this Demon God inner core has already turned into powder. This also means that the cost of a single strike is the cost of a Demon God inner core. How can it be considered ordinary?”
“You’re such a freak! You actually possess the Demon God Inner Pill! Why do you feel like you have all sorts of treasures? Forget about all sorts of magical things. There’s also the Eternal Demon Saber and the Demon God Inner Pill. I really don’t know what other secrets you’re hiding.”
Li Qing said, “Alright, Senior. I’m just here to ask you if you can tell if Daoist Dark Star is alive or dead. Don’t let him swindle me to death. That would be a trap for me.”
“So you’re worried about that. With my eyesight, Daoist Dark Star is indeed dead, but I’m not even sure if he faked his death.” Said Ancient Desolate Lord.
“Then what should we do?”
‘”I have two ways to determine Ancient Desolate Lord’s life and death,” said Daoist Dark Star. “The first is to wait for a while, and if Daoist Dark Star really isn’t dead, he will naturally wake up. The second way is to attack Daoist Dark Star. If he really isn’t dead, he will definitely not be attacked in vain!”
Li Qing said, “Alright, I’ll use both methods together. I’ll wait for a few days before launching an attack on Daoist Dark Star. I believe that in this way, I’ll definitely be able to determine his life and death!”
A few days later, Daoist Dark Star’s corpse was still floating in the void, motionless. Li Qing could basically confirm in his heart that this Dark Star Daoist was indeed dead, but he still felt that it was unsafe, so he let the Primordial Era’s Warship collide with Daoist Dark Star.
Daoist Dark Star didn’t react to the impact of the Primordial Warship at all. He was directly sent flying. His body was like a ragged cloth bag, and fresh blood spilled out of the void.
“Really dead!” Li Qing was delighted and immediately flew out to the side of Daoist Dark Star’s corpse.
He stretched out his hand and took out Daoist Dark Star’s interspatial ring. He examined the contents of the ring. There was no need to mention the wealth within. Of course, it was like mountains and seas. The spirit stones that Li Qing had spent on the Ancient Desolate Warship had been earned back from Daoist Dark Star.
Unfortunately, Daoist Dark Star did not have a Dao Artifact in his hand. It seemed that a Dao Realm expert might not be able to refine a Dao Artifact. This also depended on one’s luck.
At such a young age, Li Qing was already covered in Dao Artifacts, so it was an exception in the end.
Not to mention that the Dark Star Sect had always been alone in the starry sky and didn’t have much communication with the outside world. Security is much safer, but it also leads to information blocking and technology backwardness.
Compared to the Great Thousand Worlds, the Dark Star Sect was in a relatively backward state in all aspects. It relied solely on a Dark Shadow Battle Star to travel through the starry sea with imposing might.
Most of their resources were self-sufficient. Either they searched for other stars and obtained them from them.
Therefore, the Dark Star Sect’s overall strength was not that strong, not even a single Dao Suppressing Artifact. Almost all of their resources had been used to refine the Dark Shadow Battle Star.
This Daoist Dark Star was the only Dao Realm expert of the Dark Movie Star Sect. Therefore, he naturally possessed most of the wealth of the Dark Movie Star Sect. Basically, it was his responsibility to keep it. Even if he didn’t have any Dao Artifacts in hand, Li Qing’s harvest was still far beyond his expectations.
One of the top-grade spirit artifacts was called the Star Diagram. It was cast after the ancient Star Diagram. Its power was not bad. As long as it was used, it could gather a large amount of star power and form a great circle of stars, trapping people inside.
“Eh? There are also most of the Dark Movie Star Sect’s cultivation technique manuals inside. All of them are in Daoist Dark Star’s hands!” Li Qing’s eyes lit up and he immediately searched for it.
Most of them were secret manuals from the Dark Movie Star Sect, which did not attract Li Qing much.
However, a few of the books made him ecstatic.
‘”Seven Stars Big Dipper Technique” and “Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Atlas”! I have no place to find after stepping through my iron shoes, so I have no time to waste. These two Dao Sect techniques are exactly what I have been looking for! ”
Back then, Emperor Violet Myrtle had integrated the Seven Stars Big Dipper Technique and the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Atlas to create the Zhou Tian Xing Chen Technique, which allowed him to become one of the Five Ancient Emperors in one fell swoop!
The Dark Shadow Star Sect was originally inherited from the Ancient Star Sect, but it was a branch of the sect. It was not surprising that they possessed these two great dao sects.
Following that, Li Qing carefully searched for it and found the [Zhou Tian Xing Chen Technique] in these secret manuals.
He picked up this strange book and carefully read it. Not only did it contain methods to cultivate star power, it could also calculate the heavens and deduce the heavens’ secrets!
In this [Zhou Tian Xing Chen Technique], there was an extremely formidable peerless technique called [Violet Myrtle Counts].
The Heavenly Secrets Sect of the Great Thousand Worlds had obtained the [Violet Myrtle Count] of the Star Sect, which was why they had such a powerful ability to deduce the Heavenly Secrets.
Li Qing had previously been calculated by the Heavenly Secrets Sect, and was even hunted down by the people of the entire Eastern Region. Even if there was a Heavenly Secrets that obscured the Heavenly Secrets, they could still calculate a rough location, and the result was extremely formidable!
However, if Li Qing could learn how to count the Violet Myrtle now, then the people from the Heavenly Secrets Sect would no longer be able to calculate his position in the future. Because he himself had the means to deceive the Heavenly Secrets, he could naturally break these causal links.
‘”However, it doesn’t seem to be that easy to learn the [Violet Myrtle Count]. I heard that the selection of disciples for the Heavenly Secrets Sect is very strict and the number of disciples is very small. Even after studying for more than ten years, there are still many people who are unable to deduce the Heavenly Secrets.”
Li Qing put away the books and searched for a while before finding something else.
“This is the method of refining the Battle Star!” Li Qing couldn’t help but be shocked.
This book was extremely thick and huge. He hurriedly opened it and read it. The result was that the beginning of the book was precisely the process of refining the Dark Shadow Battle Star.
This process was extremely long. It had lasted for tens of thousands of years, consuming countless precious materials, manpower, and material resources. It had finally realized the dreams of the seniors!
After the Shadow Battle Star was successfully refined, it did not disappoint them. Its power was so powerful that it simply surpassed the entire starry sky.
In the depths of the starry sky, the Dark Shadow Battle Star was the most powerful weapon of war. Even many Dao weapons were not its match!
Across the starry sea, there was no one who could defeat him, and his might was all-encompassing!
Facing some ordinary stars, the Dark Shadow Battle Star would be able to pierce through them without much effort!
After that, the Dark Movie Star Sect’s behavior became even more arrogant, constantly searching for living stars, not letting go of anything they encountered, plundering the resources and population within, and strengthening their own forces.
There were even some branches of the Star Sect that continued in a certain corner of the starry sky. They actually didn’t let go of them and pushed them horizontally. Their methods were extremely cruel.
“No wonder they launched an attack without saying a word after seeing the Primordial Warship! It turns out that their style of handling things over the years has already caused them to become extremely arrogant. Whenever they encounter anything good, they will plunder it first.”
“But they didn’t think about it. Even if they weren’t at the Dao Realm, they would still be very powerful. They didn’t even say a word and rushed forward. It was obvious how domineering they were.”
“It’s a pity that they are too proud. They think that the Dark Shadow Battle Star is invincible under the heavens, and even the Ancient Desolate Battle Ship is not in their eyes. Now, they have fallen into my hands!”
Li Qing continued to flip through the contents. Not long after, he saw some other crazy ideas from them.
“Floating Island Plan?” Li Qing’s heart was filled with interest.
