The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 846
Chapter 846 Great War of the Righteous Demons (7)
The sky and the earth were all gray, smoke rising everywhere, and everything that entered his eyes was a scene of utter ruin.
Standing in the ruins, Li Qing’s eyes couldn’t help but flash with a trace of exhaustion.
Just now, there was another fierce battle. There were corpses all around, including the remains of Void Realm experts. Righteous path and Diabolism were mixed together, and weapons and armor were casually thrown away.
“Your Highness the Holy Son has already killed all the enemies!” An expert from Diabolism walked over and reported respectfully. There was no lack of high respect in his gaze towards Li Qing.
“Pack up the battlefield and return to the base camp to rest.” Li Qing said indifferently.
He put away the Heavenly Saber, his body covered in blood, but they were all from the enemy, while he was completely unharmed.
With such tyrannical defense, and Myriad Devil’s true body’s recovery ability was extremely fast, it was difficult to get injured.
Even so, his mental state was already extremely exhausted. This war had been going on for three whole years. Every day, they would be able to survive in the flames of war, and even those who were made of iron would not be able to withstand it.
The Righteous path faction controlled most of the territory between heaven and earth. The potential for war was enormous, and they continuously sent experts to consume it. The Diabolism faction had worked very hard to support them.
However, the good news was that the Mortal Demon Prison Plan had been gradually implemented. The thirteen continents of the Immortal Capital had completely transformed into a demonic land. The humans inside were also contaminated with demonic energy, and they basically had a firm foothold.
“There are simply too many Void Realm experts in the Righteous path!” Li Qing whispered to himself.
Looking into the distance, there were many flags and formations that were overlapping and watertight. That was a line of defense laid down by the experts of Righteous path.
In fact, during these three years, the Righteous path forces had set up a total of three defenses to ensure that nothing went wrong. Even if one of the defensive lines was lost, there was still a defensive line that could support them.
Only a sufficient number of humans from the Righteous path forces could set up such a dense and numerous defensive line. Each stronghold was guarded by hundreds or thousands of Xiantian experts, as well as several Void Realm experts.
With Diabolism’s current strength, he could barely defend himself, but it was impossible for him to break through this line of defense.
It could only be said that Righteous path had a strong foundation, and no matter how much manpower was lost, it could be quickly replenished. But not Diabolism. This was their Achilles’ heel!
Therefore, Righteous path isn’t in a hurry right now. He’s just fighting with you guys to consume it. After a while, it’s almost exhausted. Diabolism is basically going to be annihilated.
Li Qing looked at the dense defensive line in the distance, a trace of worry flashing through his eyes. If this continued, within ten years, Diabolism would undoubtedly lose!
Even with a monstrous figure like Devil Master Yin Tianhong, it would be difficult to turn the tide.
Li Qing had studied many great battles between the Righteous and the Demons in history. A large portion of these battles lasted for a long time. Dozens of years was the norm. It was during this long confrontation that Diabolism had exhausted all of its strength, resulting in failure.
“Demon Lord Yin Tianhong must still have a way to go. It’s impossible for him to rely on Diabolism to defeat Righteous path’s forces.” Li Qing thought to himself.
“Right now, the Demonic Land Project is considered to be half successful. However, the area of the thirteen continents in the immortal capital is a bit small. The war potential is far from enough. It is very difficult to sustain its development and personnel cannot be replenished.”
“Unless we include the Daluo Dynasty and implement the Mortal Demon Prison Plan to turn the lands of the four continents of the Central Region into demonic lands, it might be feasible.”
The four continents of the Central Region were equivalent to forty continents of the Southern Region, and their area was quite vast.
More importantly, the Central Region was densely populated, prosperous, and powerful. There were a large number of experts, much better than the territory of the Southern Region!
If he could pollute the four continents of the Central Region into magical soil, perhaps he could turn the world around and destroy Righteous path’s foundation!
However, the problem now was that the Daluo Dynasty was nominally orthodox. Once it was polluted into the Demon Prison, it would cause the morale of the army to waver. It was hard to say whether the soldiers below would go back on their word.
The top experts of the army of the Great Luo Dynasty came from the Myriad Devil Sect, but ordinary Xiantian and Houtian martial artists were recruited from the local area and were loyal to the Great Luo Dynasty.
If he forcefully executed the Mortal Demon Prison Plan, it was hard to say whether there would be any variables that would prevent him from attacking the Great Zhou Dynasty.
“If we can completely attack the Great Zhou Dynasty, perhaps things will change. I only hope that the two old dynasties, Da Qin and Da Qian, will not interfere in this matter!”
Li Qing brought his subordinates back to the base camp.
“Haha, His Highness the Saint Son has defeated the enemy again this time, killing two Void Realm experts. The credit added a heavy smile. Congratulations!” Someone greeted him.
“To be able to kill two Void Realm cultivators this time is just an unexpected encounter. I can only blame their bad luck.” Li Qing smiled faintly.
In these three years, Myriad Devil Li Qing’s name had already spread throughout both the Righteous and the Devil Dao, causing people’s expressions to change.
Even the peak Void Realm’s deterrent power couldn’t compare to Li Qing’s fierce reputation.
Perhaps Li Qing’s strength was slightly inferior to that of a peak Void Realm cultivator, but Li Qing’s killing methods were truly too terrifying. Once the Heavenly Saber was unleashed, it would be completely cut off!
As long as they were defeated by Li Qing’s subordinates, they would basically lose their lives and would not be able to escape.
In a battle between Void Realm experts, even if they were unable to defeat the enemy, there was basically no problem escaping, and their lives were basically safe.
Li Qing, on the other hand, was able to break this common sense. As long as there were people who could not defeat him, very few would be able to escape.
The main reason was that the power of the Heavenly Saber in Li Qing’s hand was too terrifying. On the other hand, it was also because he had too many treasures that he could cope with all sorts of situations.
Even if there was a Great Shift Divine Talisman, it was useless. Once the Xia Emperor Cauldron appeared, it controlled a part of the world. The void was completely sealed, and there was no escape.
You fly fast? Li Qing directly transformed into a Heavenly Roc, how many people could compare to him? Not to mention that he has the Heaven Breaking Style, he can directly cross a distance of ten kilometers and cut down on top of your head, unable to defend against it.
In the eyes of many Righteous path experts, Li Qing’s endless killing methods were simply more terrifying than most peak Void Realm experts.
Therefore, Li Qing had become a thorn in their side, a thorn in their flesh. He wanted to kill quickly and was the number one person on the Must Kill List.
“After His Highness the Saint Son killed these two Void Realm experts, the Righteous path experts hate you even more to the bones. I’m afraid there are dozens of Void Realm experts who have died in your hands, right?” Those people laughed.
“It is incumbent upon us to contribute to the Myriad Devil Sect, even if Righteous path sees it as a thorn in our side and threatens our lives!” Li Qing said with a righteous expression.
“Your Highness, First Hall Master, please go to the main hall to discuss this matter!” Someone said.
Li Qing immediately followed this person to the main hall. He discovered that there were already many experts standing here. All of them were famous Great Devils. Their strengths were at least at the Void Realm and above.
“Are you almost here?” The Yellow Springs Demon Emperor looked around.
“The important figures of the various forces are basically all here. We can start the meeting now.” Grand Elder Myriad Devil Sect said.
Emperor Yellow Springs said, “There’s nothing much to ask you to do today. I just wanted to tell you that there will be a large-scale battle against the Righteous path tonight.”
“Oh? May I ask why? Why did you suddenly launch a large-scale battle?” Someone asked.
“When the time comes, you will know that this battle is definitely not a meaningless surprise attack. Rather, there are other reasons.” Emperor Yellow Springs said.
“May I know the direction of the main attack?”
“Straight in from the center of the first line of defense. Strike straight into the yellow dragon.”
“Will Demon Lord Yin Tianhong participate in this battle? Without Devil Master Lord here, I’m afraid it would be a bit unsafe.” Someone’s expression was worried.
“There’s no need to ask more about the specifics. I won’t let you die anyway. All of you are Diabolism’s elites. Death to any of you would be a great loss.” Netherworld Demon Emperor comforted.
Although everyone had doubts in their hearts, they did not ask any more questions and dispersed one after another.
The Great Elder found Li Qing and said, “Your Highness, you must be extra careful in your actions this time. Righteous experts regard you as a thorn in their side and must not fall into a dangerous situation.”
At this moment, the Great Elder’s tone was much more polite. After all, Li Qing was no longer the same as before. He had made great contributions by killing so many Void Realm experts, and his reputation in Diabolism was getting higher and higher.
When most elders saw Li Qing, they would basically say “His Highness the Saint Son” respectfully instead of calling him by his first name like before.
“Grand Elder, there’s no need to worry. This junior has the means to protect himself. Unless a Dao Realm expert personally takes action, it won’t pose a life-threatening threat to me.” Li Qing said.
“I’m afraid that there really is a Dao Realm expert who doesn’t have the shame to look for an opportunity to deal with you!” The Great Elder sighed.
Li Qing’s current might was too great, and his potential was limitless, making people feel scared when they saw him. If he were to cultivate to the peak of the Void Realm in another hundred years, wouldn’t he be chasing after a Dao Realm expert?
An ordinary peak Void Realm expert might be worth paying attention to, but Li Qing’s identity was not ordinary. He was the Demon Ancestor’s inheritor, and it was of great significance. Once he reached the peak Void Realm, there would only be one final obstacle left.
If he broke through that barrier, the consequences would be unimaginable.
After reaching the Dao Realm, you won’t be able to cultivate step by step like the Void Realm. You will be able to cross the Heavenly Tribulation directly, as long as you have the strength to do so.
Back then, after the Demon Ancestor broke through to the Dao Realm, he passed through the fifth level of Heavenly Tribulation without any pause.
If Li Qing really reached the Dao Realm, it was hard to say whether he would duplicate the miracle of the Ancient Devil Ancestor and undergo another five tribulations in a row.
Therefore, Great Elder’s worries were not unreasonable. There was a real possibility that a Dao Realm expert would personally take action against Li Qing and kill him.
Li Qing pondered for a moment and said, “I do have the means to move the void. However, if the other party seals the void, none of these means will be used.”
“Move the void?” The Great Elder pondered for a moment and said, “There is a solution. You can go find Yin Qianyu and tell her about it.”
“Oh? Yin Qianyu?” Li Qing was stunned for a moment. He thought about it carefully and said, “I seem to understand. There is indeed something in her hand that seems to be able to break through the void seal. However, this thing is a treasure that concerns her life. Will she really lend it to me?”
“Let me tell her.” The Great Elder immediately sent someone to invite Yin Qianyu over.
“May I know why First Elder came to find me?” Yin Qianyu said respectfully.
“Li Qing is in urgent need of a method to break through the void seal. I’ve thought about it and heard that the Profound Heaven Formation Breaking Drum has this function. May I ask if it’s true?” The Great Elder asked.
Yin Qianyu nodded, “That’s right, the Profound Heaven Breaking Formation Drum can not only break all formations in the world, but also break the seals in the void. However, the Profound Heaven Breaking Formation Drum has long been damaged, and there are still several percent of its effects that remain to be determined.”
The Great Elder said, “That’s good. His Highness the Saint Son is one of the most important figures of our Myriad Devil Sect. He is likely to be targeted by the enemy’s Dao Realm experts. Therefore, if you want to use this Profound Heaven Breaking Formation Drum to save your life, are you willing to lend him this item?”
Originally, she thought that she would be somewhat reluctant, but when she heard this, she actually agreed without hesitation, “Of course I am willing, this matter is incumbent upon me!”
After saying that, he took out the Profound Heaven Formation Breaking Drum and handed it to Li Qing.
Li Qing held the small, lightweight drum in his hand. There were some cracks on the drum. He said, “I can think of a way to repair it. It can also be considered as a reward for you.”
Yin Qianyu’s face was filled with joy, “Thank you, Your Highness the Holy Son. I am extremely grateful!”
After the matter was settled, Li Qing communicated with the power of the Ascension Heavenly Palace and returned to the Heavenly Palace to repair the damage caused by the Profound Heaven Formation Breaking Drum.
There were a lot of materials in the Ascension Heavenly Palace, and Li Qing also had the memories of the Longevity Emperor. This fellow liked to do all kinds of research, so he was quite knowledgeable in repairing Dao Artifacts.
Very quickly, Li Qing finished preparing all kinds of materials. Among them, there was a colorful glass immortal liquid. It was unknown how Emperor Longevity obtained it.
This Five-Colored Veluriyam Immortal Liquid had a tremendous effect on repairing the damage to the Dao Artifact. Back then, Li Qing had relied on this item to repair the Yin Yang Cylinder with the help of the Soul Transformation Pool.
Right now, the damage to the Profound Heaven Shattering Formation Drum was obviously even greater. Therefore, Li Qing had not only prepared the Five-Colored Veluriyam Immortal Liquid, but also other rare materials.
Under the influence of these materials, the results were naturally gratifying. A moment later, a brand new Profound Heaven Shattering Formation Drum appeared in his hand. It had surprisingly returned to its peak and was in an intact state.
“With this Profound Heaven Formation Breaking Drum, there is no need to worry about the Void Sealing in the future! With the power of the Ascension Heavenly Palace, as long as you move away before a Dao Realm expert intervenes, you can rest easy.” Li Qing’s face revealed a trace of joy.
