The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 858
Chapter 858 Demonic Might Initial Appearance (1)
Of course, the wound in Xue Shenzi’s hand was caused by Li Qing using his Heavenly Saber. The purple light was the unique killing power of the Heavenly Saber, capable of extinguishing all life force.
However, this unstoppable killing power seemed to have lost its effect on Xue Shenzi. It could not completely cripple his arm, let alone take his life.
The experts of the Six Tribulations of the Dao Realm had undergone the baptism of numerous heavenly tribulations, and their bodies and souls had constantly transformed. They had already reached an extremely powerful level. How could they die so easily?
Of course, it wasn’t that easy to deal with the power of extermination. Xue Shenzi’s palms were purple, and he immediately used his own strength to expel the purple light. However, the result was like a maggot attached to a bone, unable to expel it in a short period of time.
“What a terrifying power! Suppress this purple power temporarily. We can think of a way after we return.” Xue Shenzi frowned.
Looking around, other than the experts of the Blood Sea Devil Sect, there was no one else watching, and his heart calmed down a little.
After all, being escaped by a junior face to face, or even being counterattacked by Li Qing, would definitely be a huge loss of face and would be laughed at by the world.
Back then, when Xue Shenzi heard that Emperor Hong Wu had failed to kill Li Qing, he had mocked him. However, it didn’t take long for him to encounter such a situation. He immediately felt a little angry and wanted to kill Li Qing.
“This brat has too many tricks. There are countless of them. He might have great potential in the future. He might accidentally surpass me. We can’t allow him to survive!”
“What method did Li Qing use to block my attack? At that time, he felt as if he had struck a palace. His defense was astonishing and he was unable to shake it at all. That was why Li Qing took the opportunity to counterattack and slash me!”
“No matter what method he used to do it, when we see him again in the future, seal the void in advance so that he can’t move away. I’ll see how he can escape!”
…
Li Qing brought the Third Hall Master back to the Ascension Heavenly Palace.
The Third Hall Master looked at this magnificent palace and felt as if he had arrived at the Immortal Dimension in the sky. His eyes were filled with shock.
A Dao Realm expert had never seen anything before. Originally, he shouldn’t be so surprised, but at this moment, he had to be shocked by the scene in front of him. It could be seen how magnificent the Ascension Heavenly Palace was.
In fact, the name of the Ascension Heavenly Palace had been passed down from ancient times until now, but few people had ever seen the appearance of the Ascension Heavenly Palace before. The first time anyone saw this grand palace, their expressions were basically the same, and Dao Realm experts were no exception.
‘”I didn’t expect the Sect Master to actually control the legendary Ascension Heavenly Palace. This luck… Tsk tsk…” Third Hall Master repeatedly marveled.
With his eyesight, he could easily guess that this magnificent palace was no other than the legendary Ascension Heavenly Palace.
“It didn’t take me long to obtain the Ascension Heavenly Palace. I experienced a life of near-death, and it was hard to describe.” Li Qing said indifferently.
“I have to thank Sect Master for saving me this time. Only then will I be able to save my life!” Third Hall Master sighed. “Originally, when I saw Xue Shenzi, I thought that he would perish completely this time, but I didn’t expect that the path would change. The methods of the Sect Master could be described as endless.”
“The Third Hall Master is the only Dao Realm expert in our Myriad Devil Sect. Of course, he can’t afford to lose. He should do everything he can to rescue him.” Li Qing smiled and said, “Presumably, Great Elder and the others are also in a hurry. Let’s go back now.”
Third Hall Master reluctantly looked at the Ascension Heavenly Palace for the last time and said, “Being able to see the Ascension Heavenly Palace is not a waste of my life.”
“Don’t worry, this palace is already under my control. You still have a chance to come back in the future.” Li Qing said.
“The Heaven and Earth Twin Palaces have all fallen into the hands of the Sect Master. I have a premonition that your future will definitely emit a resplendent light that will shake the Eight Desolates and Six Harmonies and fulfill the wishes of our Myriad Devil Sect for 100,000 years.” The Third Hall Master said.
“These things are too far away. It’s hard to say what will happen in the future. Let’s go, let’s go back first.” Li Qing waved his hand and moved the void. After a while, he returned to the Myriad Devil Palace.
The Great Elder and the others were anxiously waiting for them. Seeing the two of them return, they were immediately overjoyed, “It is the blessing of our Third Hall Master Sect that the Sect Master was able to successfully save Myriad Devil!”
“A slight ripple is not worth mentioning.” Li Qing said with a dignified expression.
Everyone also expressed their admiration for Li Qing’s methods. Under the circumstances at that time, anyone would have to abandon the Third Hall Master.
Because they had no way to save people from Xue Shenzi and could only flee in the Myriad Devil Palace.
However, Li Qing did it. Not only did he save the Myriad Devil Palace, he also rescued people from Xue Shenzi’s hands. It was simply a miracle.
Unfortunately, they did not see what Li Qing was doing to save her. They could only secretly guess in their hearts that they were already convinced by the random thoughts and gazes that they were looking at Li Qing.
Remembering that Li Qing possessed the means to kill Dao Realm experts, it was as if he possessed boundless magic. He was always able to do things beyond his abilities, and felt that he was even more unfathomable.
“We were careless when Xue Shenzi ambushed us this time. The Myriad Devil Sect does not have the strength to contend against them at the moment, so we need to endure it for the time being. It will not be too late for us to settle the score with them when we recover in the future!”
After everyone left, Li Qing said to the Third Hall Master, “Since you have already passed the third stage of the Heavenly Tribulation and received a considerable amount of injuries, this life essence has a great healing effect on your injuries. Take it and use it.”
After receiving the so-called life essence, Third Hall Master revealed a surprised expression and said, “Thank you, Hall Master, for your generous gift!”
Although he had never heard of this life essence, he still trusted Li Qing very much. As long as it was something Li Qing took out, none of it would be disappointing. He believed that this life essence should also be effective.
It was very difficult to recover from the Heavenly Tribulation. Once a Dao Realm expert was injured, it would take a long time for him to slowly recover. With this life essence, it might greatly reduce the recovery time.
The life essence Li Qing took out was naturally something that Lord Chang Sheng had researched.
Every time Lord Chang Sheng did any research, he always liked to put the test subject in a green liquid. No matter how many injuries he suffered, he could quickly recover. The effect was extremely powerful.
It could be said that after soaking in the life essence, the recovery speed of his injuries was about the same as the Myriad Devil True Body cultivated by Li Qing.
According to Lord Chang Sheng’s memories, this life essence was extracted from the tree sap of the Divine Tree of Life, plus many precious medicinal ingredients. During this long period of time, the amount of life essence produced by Lord Chang Sheng was sufficient to last for a long time.
The current Divine Life Tree had always been under the control of the Divine Life Religion, but that was also the situation that had developed in modern times. In the Middle Ages and even in the Primordial Era, the Divine Tree of Life had many generations of owners.
Lord Chang Sheng had once occupied the Divine Tree of Life for a period of time, so he was able to obtain so much sap to use to prepare the original liquid of life.
Only Lord Chang Sheng dared to do such a thing. After the other factions obtained the Divine Tree of Life, which one of them didn’t properly support it and worship it like a god?
Moreover, the Divine Tree of Life itself possessed extremely powerful power. Ordinary people were truly unable to shake it.
Unfortunately, Lord Chang Sheng, who didn’t play by common sense, not only didn’t he not support the Divine Tree of Life like others, he even used it for research, and then developed such a special thing as the Original Liquid of Life.
After Third Hall Master obtained the life essence, he believed that he would be able to recover very soon. At that time, there would be a powerful Dao Realm expert from the Three Tribulations in Myriad Devil Palace, and he wouldn’t be powerless to resist.
The Blood Sea Devil Sect would definitely continue to persecute the Myriad Devil Sect. Although they could not find any traces of the Myriad Devil Palace, the Myriad Devil Sect’s outer forces on the ground would probably suffer a heavy blow.
Shortly after, Yin Qianyu returned to Myriad Devil Palace smoothly and brought back a woman.
“Little girl Yan Tong greets Devil Master Lord!” This woman directly bowed to the ground with a very respectful attitude.
This woman’s cultivation was at the fourth level of the Void Realm, not too high. However, as an intelligence officer, their cultivation was not a requirement. They only needed to know how to spy on information and disguise themselves.
One could see that this woman’s appearance was extremely gentle and seductive, as if she was born with a seductive intent, causing people to be unconsciously affected and their hearts to sway.
It was only such a charming woman that attracted the attention of King Jin and made many unconscious actions.
Looking at the woman beneath the hall and feeling her charm, Li Qing suddenly remembered that he seemed to have felt this charm somewhere and had very similar characteristics.
Of course, he did not rashly ask, and said indifferently, “Are you the confidant of the previous Demon Lord, the leader of a mysterious force?”
“Yes. Actually, Yan Tong didn’t follow Lord Yin Tianhong for long. It was only a few decades. This organization wasn’t created by me, but inherited from the previous leader.” Liu Ruyi said.
“Has this organization been established for a long time? What is its background?”
“As far as I know, the original source of this organization should be the last Dao companion of Demon Lord Yin Tianhong, Evil Empress Yan Ruyi, who founded it five hundred years ago!”
Li Qing couldn’t help but cast his gaze at Yin Qianyu. “The last Dao-companion …”
“What are you looking at me for? I’m not that Yan Ruyi’s descendant! At that time, Lord Yin Tianhong was already a Dao Realm expert, so it was very difficult for him to have any descendants, so Yan Ruyi did not leave any bloodline behind.” Yin Qianyu rolled her eyes.
“That’s right.” Li Qing nodded. Yin Qianyu should have been born to Yin Tianhong when he was young. As his strength increased, he could still find a Dao companion, but it would not be so easy to have offspring.
“At that time, Yan Tong Yan Ruyi created this organization with the intention of helping Evil Empress to spy on intelligence. After all, it is not possible to provide much help in terms of force, so this is the only way to do it,” said Devil Master Lord.
“Later on, Yan Ruyi was unable to break through to the Dao Realm. Her lifespan was cut off and she died. As a result, this organization was passed down from generation to generation into my hands.”
Li Qing said, “Originally, you only obeyed the orders of the previous Demon Lord and didn’t have much to do with me. Why are you willing to enter the Myriad Devil Palace and submit to me now?”
Yan Tong said, “The previous Demon Lord told us to prepare for the worst. Whether I die accidentally or Devil Master Lord dies, there will be a follow-up plan.”
“The people in our organization are loyal to the previous Demon Lord and will never betray him! Therefore, his orders will be obeyed. Since he has made us submit to the new Sect Master, we will not disobey him!”
Li Qing said, “What are the origins of the inner members of your organization?”
Yan Tong said, “All of them are orphans, fatherless and motherless, and all of them are women. They have been personally nurtured by Demon Lord Yin Tianhong for a period of time, and then sent to the hands of the various major powers. They will either serve as disciples or give them to great figures as playthings. They will use this opportunity to spy on information by any means possible!”
“Sure enough, it’s a method that conforms to the Devil Dao.” Li Qing thought to himself.
This Yan Tong was obviously given to Prince Jin as a plaything from the beginning. Later on, Prince Jin was fascinated by her and actually directly promoted this Yan Tong to Princess. It was obvious how brilliant her methods were!
“Are you sure that you will be loyal to me in the future?” Li Qing asked.
“That’s right, everyone in our organization will only be loyal to you, Devil Master Lord. You will go through fire and water without hesitation!” Yan Tong bowed.
“How many people are there in your organization? What exactly are their identities? Please organize the list for me to see.” Li Qing said.
Yan Tong seemed to have already prepared it. He took out a pamphlet from his chest and handed it to Li Qing. He respectfully said, “Devil Master Lord, please take a look!”
Li Qing flipped through the pamphlet and looked at it page by page. The identities of the characters inside were basically planted in various factions. They were inextricably linked and penetrated deeply. It was unknown how many methods had been used to achieve this.
Among them, Li Qing saw a few familiar names and couldn’t help but secretly say in his heart, “As expected, it’s not out of my expectations!”
One of them was one of Indigo Water Mansion’s eight great beauties, Liu Yuemei!
This could be considered to be the solution to Li Qing’s doubts. Why did Liu Yuemei behave so strangely at that time? It turned out that she was actually a spy personally planted by the Demon Lord.
The other one was Yao Mengxi of Sea God Island … This little girl looked righteous, but she was also a spy of the Devil Dao, which surprised Li Qing.
The other person surprised Li Qing. It was actually Cheng Qingqing from the Divine Life Sect!
