Li Qing’s face revealed a terrified expression. Obviously, he was also frightened by the attack of the Sword God. If he hadn’t flashed so quickly just now, it wouldn’t have been as simple as having his arm cut off. Instead, he would have directly split everyone in half.

Although Li Qing’s body was said to be immortal, if he was split into two during the battle with the Sword God, he wouldn’t be far from death.

“This is the strength of a supreme expert? Even if I were ten times stronger, I might not be able to defeat him!” Through these few battles, Li Qing knew that he was far from being a match for the Sword God.

Autarch experts are indeed worthy of being the most powerful people in history. They are truly incomparable to the Eight Tribulations of the Dao Realm. Even though Li Qing had the defensive power of a Heavenly Devil Ape, he was basically unable to block a single move.

He immediately retrieved the broken arm and placed it on the wound. As his flesh wriggled, he quickly recovered.

The Sword God walked over step by step, his aura growing stronger and stronger. He was no longer the ordinary old man from before.

“The next move was created by me using all my life’s energy to gather all the swordsmanship in the world. It took thousands of years of secluded cultivation to create it. This is the first time I’ve executed it in front of the world. Watch carefully.”

The Sword God stared at Li Qing and said word by word, “This sword is called the Supreme Sword!”

Swoosh!

He handed out the iron sword in his hand, and immediately felt as if he had absorbed all the light in the world. He could only feel that the entire world had darkened, and the sun in the sky had lost its brilliance, concentrating its light and heat on the iron sword!

This iron sword had become the only thing in the world that emitted light. It had become the center of heaven and earth, as if it could override the Grand Dao and become a supreme existence!

Time seemed to have frozen at this moment, making people almost forget to breathe. Li Qing clearly felt that the speed of this iron sword was not fast, but for some reason, he was unable to dodge it. He could only watch helplessly as it pierced into his heart, and then a flood of sword qi erupted from it, destroying his body.

His defense was as strong as his, and he didn’t have any ability to resist. Sword Qi pierced through his entire body, instantly destroying his internal organs, flesh meridians, and so on, turning him into the smallest specks of dust.

There was no explosion, nor did the blood mist explode. Li Qing’s body was cut into powder by the Supreme Sword and drifted away with the wind.

“Are you dead? Li Qing is dead?” Emperor Hong Wu stared at the pile of powder.

The so-called Undying Undying had its limits. Once the attack power exceeded the limits, it would be impossible to revive and completely die.

Even if you leave behind any drop of blood or any human tissue, it is useless, because only when you are alive can you be reborn with a drop of blood.

If you are already dead, even if your body is still intact, there is no way to use it.

The so-called Undying or Blood Drop Rebirth all had a prerequisite, and that was that you were still alive!

Right now, he wanted to see if the Sword God’s attack had exceeded the limit that Li Qing could withstand. If it had exceeded the limit, it would mean that Li Qing had completely died.

However, to their disappointment, the pile of powder floated in the void for a while before quickly gathering back together and turning into a human form.

Li Qing’s face was pale. He knew that he was far from being the opponent of the Sword God, so he didn’t dare to stay any longer. He immediately turned around and fled.

The Sword God was somewhat puzzled and whispered to himself, “No, according to logic, Myriad Devil’s true body shouldn’t be able to withstand my sword! Could it be the function of the Xuanhuang Immortal Body? The fusion of the two has produced some unfathomable changes?”

What he didn’t know was that Li Qing’s current body refining technique was no longer Myriad Devil’s true body, but the Fiendgod Immortal Body. It was even more advanced than Myriad Devil’s true body, so much so that even the ultimate move of the Sword God couldn’t kill him.

“Forget it, one sword can’t kill you. Just two more swords, three swords … I really don’t believe it. Your recovery ability is that strong!”

The Sword God unleashed another sword strike, but it wasn’t the Supreme Sword strike from before. Instead, he unleashed the Void Sword Realm and surrounded the surrounding several hundred kilometers.

“Li Qing, you can’t escape. In this Void Sword Realm, you can’t move the void unless you have the strength to break through the barriers of the Void Sword Realm!” The Sword God chuckled coldly.

“The strength of the Sword God is indeed formidable. I am no match for you. Fortunately, I wanted to challenge you in the beginning, but I didn’t expect that I would still be defeated by my arrogance!” Li Qing sighed.

The Sword God said, “It has to be said that your defensive power and recovery ability are truly abnormal. Not even a Supreme Sword was able to kill you! Originally, I wanted to save my strength to cross the Heavenly Tribulation, but now, it seems like it’s not as satisfying as I thought.”

The Sword God was too old. Any bit of strength was extremely precious. Once used, it would be very difficult to replenish it.

Since the power of this Supreme Sword was so strong, it would definitely take a lot of effort. A few more swords would probably exhaust the strength he had given him.

However, in order to kill Li Qing, the Sword God no longer cared that much. He once again struck out with the Supreme Sword and landed on Li Qing’s body, chopping him to ashes.

Li Qing quickly recovered, but his face was getting paler and paler. It was difficult for him to recover in a short period of time with the Sky Profound Technique.

“I can see that you’re about to lose your strength. At most, two swords, you’re going to die!” The Sword God said.

“Is that so? Will I really die here today?” Li Qing muttered to himself in a low voice. He looked back on everything in the past and thought of Liu Ke’er in the Ascension Heavenly Palace.

“No, I still don’t want to die! I won’t die so easily either!” Li Qing roared angrily.

“Then what other trump cards do you have? Hurry up and use them, otherwise it will be too late.” The Sword God said.

“My trump card? No, I no longer have any trump cards against the Sovereign Sword God. However, there is another method, and that is … Crossing! Heaven! Tribulation!”

Li Qing almost roared out the last three words. The aura in his body erupted, rising to its limit, triggering the descent of the heavenly tribulation.

“Crossing the Heavenly Tribulation?” The Sword God narrowed his eyes and saw that tribulation clouds were already gathering on Li Qing’s head. In order to prevent the Void Sword Realm from burning, he had no choice but to take back the Void Sword Realm.

“This brat is quite shrewd. Do you want to escape from my pursuit at this time of the Heavenly Tribulation?” The Sword God sneered.

“Regardless of whether or not you can survive the eighth stage of the heavenly tribulation, even if you do, you will inevitably be killed by me.”

While Li Qing was crossing the tribulation, the Sword God arrived at Tian Yuan City and landed. Everyone bowed respectfully, “Greetings, Senior Sword God.”

“Yes, there’s no need to be too polite.” The Sword God said casually.

“The Sword God is indeed formidable. He defeated Li Qing in three or two strikes, forcing him to have nowhere to go. In the end, he could only choose the path of forcibly crossing the tribulation.”

“Of course, this is a supreme expert. How can Li Qing compare to the most powerful person in the world?” Everyone flattered him.

“Do you think Li Qing can survive this heavenly tribulation?” The Sword God asked.

“Very difficult! Li Qing’s Heavenly Tribulation is bigger than an ordinary person’s. Ordinary Dao Realm Eight Tribulations are impossible to overcome. He must have the strength to approach the Nine Tribulations of the Dao Realm!”

The Sword God was stunned. “What did you say? Li Qing’s heavenly tribulation is so much greater than the average person’s? Doesn’t that mean that after he successfully crosses the tribulation, his combat strength will increase by a terrifying amount?”

“That’s right. When he was in the Six Tribulations of the Dao Realm, he was able to contend against the experts of the Seven Tribulations of the Dao Realm. And now, the Seven Tribulations of the Dao Realm even defeated Emperor Hong Wu of the Eight Tribulations of the Dao Realm.”

“So once he has overcome the Eight Tribulations of the Dao Realm, wouldn’t he be a supreme expert capable of resisting the Nine Tribulations of the Dao Realm?” Someone said quietly.

“What a joke. I don’t believe it. The difference between the nine tribulations of the Dao Realm and the eight tribulations is as big as the gap between heaven and earth. It’s impossible for us to fight beyond the realm!” Someone scoffed.

The Sword God’s expression was slightly solemn. “But the problem is that even if Li Qing can’t defeat me after crossing the eighth Heavenly Tribulation, he may already have the ability to escape. If he escapes this time, I don’t know when he will have such a chance next time.”

“More importantly, I don’t have much lifespan. I’m about to undergo the ninth level of heavenly tribulation. I can’t continue to protect Righteous path’s forces. After I die, no one will be able to stop Li Qing. Sooner or later, Diabolism will return!”

When everyone heard this, their hearts became somewhat solemn. Li Qing had already blocked several swords of the Sword God just now. If he really managed to overcome the eighth stage of the Heavenly Tribulation, his strength had increased by a large margin and his defense had increased significantly. It was unknown if the Sword God would be able to kill Li Qing as easily as he did now.

“Then what should we do? It’s impossible for us to watch as Li Qing crosses the Heavenly Tribulation, right?”

“I can’t be disturbed during the Heavenly Tribulation. Once I disturb you, you will set yourself on fire and sacrifice your life in vain.”

“There is no way to stop it. I can only pray that Li Qing will not be able to overcome the eighth level of heavenly tribulation!”

“That’s right, Li Qing will definitely not be able to overcome the eighth stage of the Heavenly Tribulation! This Heavenly Tribulation is so powerful, how long has Li Qing only cultivated? How can he possibly cross it? I don’t believe it!”

…

While they were talking, Li Qing had already crossed thirty bolts of heavenly lightning in a row. Because he had just obtained the defensive power of the Heavenly Devil Ape, it was easier for him to face the Heavenly Tribulation’s bombardment than before.

The power of the eighth Heavenly Tribulation seemed to be ten times stronger than that of the seventh Heavenly Tribulation. However, Li Qing had also improved a lot during this period of time, and he was quite confident in himself.

At least from the dozens of thunder bolts in front of him, they hadn’t caused him too much trouble. With the Tongtian Demonic Ape’s defense, even broken hands and legs rarely occurred, and the injuries recovered in a short period of time.

When everyone saw this scene, a bad premonition arose in their hearts, “Isn’t this too easy? It’s much easier than crossing the sixth stage of the heavenly tribulation! Is the defense of the Heavenly Devil Ape that abnormal?”

“The Heavenly Thunder in front is just an appetizer. The one behind is the real test. Li Qing’s strength is quite strong. It shouldn’t be a problem to pass the first half, but it will become more and more strenuous in the future.”

On the side of the Myriad Devil Sect, when everyone saw Li Qing easily overcome the first half of the Heavenly Tribulation, they were instantly overjoyed. Under such circumstances, it was very likely that they would smoothly overcome the eighth Heavenly Tribulation.

Rumble!

The heavenly lightning continued to descend. Every ray of lightning seemed to be capable of destroying the world and hitting Li Qing’s body. As time passed, the damage it could cause became greater and greater.

Fifty… Sixty…

Until the sixty-seven bolts of lightning, Li Qing was finally unable to hold on. His body was shattered by the lightning and turned into minced meat on the ground.

Many ordinary martial artists had never seen such a situation before. They were immediately shocked by the scene in front of them and cried out in alarm, “Shattered! Shattered! Li Qing is going to die!”

However, in the next moment, Li Qing’s body had already reassembled. He used the Heavenly Profound Technique to recover his strength, welcoming the next bolt of heavenly lightning in a perfect state.
