Chapter 1013: The Whereabouts of Father
Watching Wind-Edge Demon King kill Zhong Xue and the other disciples of the Blood Demon Sect, Chuang Hei and Ying Pan were quite frightened.
Wind-Edge Demon King had restored his power, turning back into a master in the late-stage of the Earthly Spirit Realm. He was too powerful for them to resist.
Unless the master of the Black Blade Sect or Stone Sect came, no one could be compared to him.
“Qingfeng, how should we deal with all of them?” Wind-Edge Demon King smiled slightly and asked Qingfeng Li.
After briefly thinking, Qingfeng Li said firmly, “Kill them all.”
Qingfeng Li had no good impressions of these people, especially Chuang Hei and Ying Pan, for they had tried to prevent him from saving his master. Killing them now could avoid any potential future troubles.
Wind-Edge Demon King agreed and created a giant wind blade out of his right palm, which rolled forward with a furious power and killed all of them with one attack. Their flesh turned into a bloody mist as their bodies vanished in the air.
Only Wind-Edge Demon King, Qingfeng Li, Xiangzhi Qin, Flower Fairy, and some others were left standing on the top of this mountain.
“Master, do you know the whereabouts of my father?” Qingfeng Li frowned and asked.
Wind-Edge Demon King nodded and said, “Yes, your father is at the core of the forbidden district of the Kunlun Mountains.”
The Core?
Qingfeng Li was stunned. The forbidden district of the Kunlun Mountains contained four parts: the exterior, the interior, the center, and the core.
The exterior section of the district was populated by demonic beasts in the True Spirit Realm; in the interior, the beasts were comparable to the Earthly Spirit realm; in the center were the Heavenly Spirit Realm beasts; and in the core, the demonic beasts were Spirit King Realm monsters.
Qingfeng Li never thought that his father was trapped in the core. That was a place even more dangerous than hell.
Demonic Beasts in the Spirit King realm were unbeatable, roughly equivalent to self-cultivators in the golden core realm. They could destroy a city with one fist or flatten a mountain with one step.
No wonder Qingfeng’s master couldn’t save his father. His master was only in the Earthly Spirit Realm, while his father was trapped in a place with beasts in the Spirit King Realm, which could easily kill his master in one hit.
Qingfeng Li felt a little depressed. He asked, “Master, how can I save father?”
Wind-Edge Demon King thought for a while and said, “We are far from being powerful enough. To save your father, we need a king level spiritual device.”
Qingfeng Li smiled reluctantly. After dismantling the second seal, his Red Fiery Sword was only an earthly spiritual device. And it could only become a heavenly tier device after unlocking one more seal. It was far from being king level.
King level spiritual devices were only possessed by beasts in the Spirit King Realm or self-cultivators in the Golden Core Realm. Qingfeng Li had never seen one before, let alone owning one.
Understanding Qingfeng Li’s problem, Wind-Edge Demon King said, “I know where we can find a king tier spiritual device, but it will be extremely dangerous.”
Qingfeng Li got a bit excited. He asked urgently, “Where? Master, where can I find one?”
“There is one in the Spirit King Graveyard in the center of the Kunlun Mountains, where a grave of a self-cultivator in the Golden Core Realm lies,” Wind-Edge Demon King recalled and described the area.
Qingfeng Li became a bit worried. The Spirit King Graveyard was a deadly place with extreme dangers, and one could easily die there.
Though it was very risky, but for the sake of his father, Qingfeng Li said, “Master, tell me where the graveyard is. I’ll go and find the spiritual device.”
Wind-Edge Demon King shook his head and said, “I only know it’s within fifty kilometers north of the center. I’m not sure where exactly it is.”
“Haha, your Granddaddy Dog knows where it is. If you want to know the location, give me a Blood Demon Fruit,” Black Puppy laughed and said with great arrogance.
The black puppy had been annoyed by Qingfeng Li for a long time, but could never find a chance to humiliate him. Now with a chance to make Qingfeng Li beg, he would obviously begin bragging and showing off.
Pa!
Qingfeng Li walked to the black puppy and slapped it right on the back of its head while cursing, “You want to die? Tell me the location of Spirit King Graveyard or I’ll pull off all your dog hair and grill you.”
“Qingfeng Li, don’t be so arrogant. Without my help, you will never find the graveyard, or get the device and save your father,” Black Puppy threatened loudly.
Qingfeng Li said no more and directly started to pull off his dog hair, making Black Puppy howl painfully.
“Ah, it’s so painful. Stop pulling!” Black Puppy started to beg. His dog hair was very important to him.
Qingfeng Li said coldly, “Tell me the location of the graveyard or all of your hair will be gone.”
“It’s forty-nine and a half kilometers to the north of the center,” Black Puppy told the location to Qingfeng Li with a depressed look, deciding that his dog hair was more precious than his pride.
“Master, let’s leave and go to Spirit King Graveyard,” Qingfeng Li smiled slightly and said to Wind-Edge Demon King.
Wind-Edge Demon King said, “Tianjian Zhao and the Blood Demon Elder are still fighting outside. You will be killed by them if you go out now.”
Qingfeng Li knew he was right. Tianjian Zhao and the Blood Demon Elder were both masters in the late-stage of the Earthly Spirit realm. He could never beat them.
Wind-Edge Demon King then said, “Qingfeng, I can help you. Give me a Blood Demon Fruit. I can lure them away with this fruit and you can lead the others out of this cave. We shall meet at the Spirit King Graveyard.”
Qingfeng Li nodded and agreed. He took out a Blood Demon Fruit and handed it over to Wind-Edge Demon King.
Wind-Edge Demon King held the fruit and like a whirlwind, he left the cave to act as a distraction.
Tianjian Zhao and the Blood Demon Elder were still fighting. Seeing Wind-Edge Demon King running out with a Blood Demon Fruit, they were both incredibly surprised.
They would never expect that Wind-Edge Demon King would escape while they were fighting, holding a Blood Demon Fruit no less.
“Wind-Edge Demon King, hand over the fruit,” Blood Demon Elder yelled with a darkened face.
He had waited fifteen years in this Blood Demon Cave for those fruits. Now that Wind-Edge Demon King had gotten them, the elder, of course, would get extremely angry.
“Hand over the fruit, or I’ll kill you!” Tianjian Zhao also said with a chilling tone.
Tianjian Zhao came all the way here to Blood Demon Cave for these fruits. He was also quite pissed off by Wind-Edge Demon King now.
Chapter 1014: The Shameless Black Puppy
“The Blood Demon Fruits are in my hands. Take them if you can,” Wind-Edge Demon King laughed and said arrogantly.
His arrogance was deliberately exaggerated to irritate Tianjian Zhao and the Blood Demon Elder, making them assume he took all the fruits.
After saying these words, Wind-Edge Demon King turned into a whirlwind and ran to the north like a black flash of lightning.
Seeing Wind-Edge Demon King running away, Tianjian Zhao and the Blood Demon Elder were shocked. They hurriedly activated their movement techniques and chased after him for the Blood Demon Fruits.
After a while, all three of them vanished into the distance, and it returned to silence outside the cave. But the cracked rocks and woods showed the aftermath of the intense fight here just now.
After the three masters left, Qingfeng Li and the rest came out, walking towards the Spirit King Graveyard by the center under the lead of Black Puppy.
Qingfeng Li was at the exterior of Kunlun Mountain; to reach the center, they must go through the interior zone, which meant a distance of at least a thousand kilometers.
Though one thousand kilometers wasn’t that far when traveling by plane, as it would only take an hour or so, it was different in the forbidden district of the Kunlun Mountain. There were terrifying evil beasts and powerful self-cultivators all over, making it impossible to move fast.
Only after a journey over 50 kilometers, Qingfeng Li met a strong evil beast. It was a Leopard, a Leopard King. It was ten meters long, with thick and hard fur like steel needles 20 centimeters in length that exuded a powerful energy from its whole body.
This Leopard King was a demonic beast in the half-step Earthly Spirit Realm.
“Human, you are asking for death by stepping into my territory?” The Leopard King sneered, showing its white fangs and saying.
For the kings of evil beasts, their territories were inviolable. A step over the border was a taunt, a declaration of war, leading to a fight to the death.
The Black Puppy then said, “How dare you, a little kitty, be so bossy in front of your Granddaddy Dog? Come and kneel before me!”
It had to be said, the puppy was extremely cocky, calling himself ‘Granddaddy’ in front of everything he meets, like he was a supreme power in the world.
Of course, he wouldn’t dare to do this before Qingfeng Li now because of the torture he had endured.
“Bastard, how dare you?! You are looking for death,” Leopard King gazed at Black Puppy and said coldly.
The Leopard King was one of the most powerful evil beasts in the exterior area of the forbidden district, the strongest one within 150 kilometers.
Usually, all the beasts were very respectful to him. He would never expect that a puppy would dare to curse at him, which made him extremely angry.
“I’m going to kill you,” the Leopard King waved his right paw, creating a strong wind blade. The wind cut through tree trunks and instantly reached Black Puppy’s head.
A touch of contempt shined through Black Puppy’s eyes as he spat out a Demonic Pill. He hadn’t refined it but could still use its power. It was a special power of Black Puppy, to transfer the power of other objects as his own.
Shoo!
A red light shot from the Demonic Pill and crashed against the Leopard King’s paw, creating a huge noise. The power of their attacks vanished in the air, leaving no one harmed.
“Bastard puppy, you killed the Blood Python King and got its Demonic Pill?” the Leopard King gazed at Black Puppy and said with surprise.
As the Leopard King in the exterior zone, he certainly knew Blood Python King, the king of the reptilian demonic beasts. He didn’t expect that it would die.
Black Puppy raised his head and said coldly with arrogance, “Yes, I killed Blood Python King.”
The Black Puppy was truly shameless. Blood Python King was actually killed by Qingfeng Li, not by him at all.
But now, he took credit for another’s labors. Though it was an obvious lie, Qingfeng Li didn’t uncover it, because Leopard King was their common enemy.
Qingfeng Li and Black Puppy did have some internal conflicts, but it was not a big deal when they had to destroy a mutual enemy, a demonic beast.
Leopard King waved his right paw again, preparing to attack Black Puppy. Qingfeng Li then took a move. He was anxious to save his father and didn’t want to waste any time here, so he attacked with his long sword directly.
Bang!
Qingfeng Li drew out the Red Fiery Sword, slashing out a beam of sword energy 40 meters long, even a bit longer than before, piercing through the air and cutting right at the Leopard King’s claws. It directly cut its claws off, with blood spraying everywhere.
Hoh!
Leopard King howled painfully. He was a demonic beast a half-step into the Earthly Spirit Realm and had claws harder than steel. His claws could easily split rocks but they were cut off by Qingfeng Li with only one strike. He was shocked by Qingfeng’s frightening level of power.
He thought Qingfeng was defenseless, and would never have expected him to be so formidable.
Leopard King opened his mouth and spat out a blue Demonic Pill. This Demonic Pill contained a strong power as it shot out a blue ray of light right at Qingfeng Li.
He had vowed to kill this young man, to avenge the loss of his paws.
Qingfeng Li performed the Dragon Steps, turning himself into a flying dragon as he moved as fast as lightning, dodging the attack from the Demonic Pill.
He could easily dodge the attacks from most demonic beasts ever since he learned the Dragon Steps movement technique.
Qingfeng Li jumped off the ground and flew up right over Leopard King’s head. He created a blast of invincible energy with his right fist directed at the Leopard King’s skull. The leopard’s head was directly smashed to a pulp, and his body fell to the ground.
With one hit, the Leopard King was killed.
Seeing how powerful Qingfeng Li was, the demonic beasts that were lurking around fled away with fear. The Leopard King was easily beaten and they would also die if they stayed here.
Shoo!
Black Puppy moved like a black flash and jumped above, swallowing the Demonic Pill at once.
This Black Puppy was so shameless. He took the Demonic Pill of the Blood Python King last time, and now the pill of the Leopard King. Qingfeng Li really wanted to beat him up.
A touch of murderous intent appeared in Qingfeng Li’s eyes as he reached out his right hand and was ready to teach Black Puppy a lesson.
This shameless puppy had taken Qingfeng’s advantage so many times already, annoying him greatly.
Black Puppy noticed Qingfeng Li’s killing intent and said, “The Spirit King Graveyard is extremely dangerous. I can only take you there by improving my power with this Demonic Pill. Otherwise, you will not reach there if I die half-way.”
Though Qingfeng Li would really have liked to beat Black Puppy, what he said was true. This little idiot really did need to improve his power, so he let Black Puppy off as they made their way to the Spirit King Graveyard.
Chapter 1015: Horrifying Man-Eating Flower
Black Puppy had swallowed the Blood Python King’s and the Leopard King’s Demonic Pills, and his strength had significantly increased. His body became a bit larger, and the fur on his body became shinier and darker, like black pine needles.
Black Puppy was familiar with the forbidden district of the Kunlun Mountains and under his guidance, Qingfeng Li and the others traveled through the exterior section smoothly and entered the interior mountains.
Although they encountered some Demonic Beasts, those unfortunate monsters were either beheaded by Qingfeng’s sword, or scared away by Black Puppy’s aura.
Although Black Puppy was shameless, he had a strong repressive aura that affected lower leveled demonic beasts.
Moments later, everyone had arrived at the interior section of the Kunlun Mountains.
Just as they enter the interior, Qingfeng was shocked as he felt a lot of powerful auras here. Each one was stronger than the one before, and there were even several Earthly Spirit Realm demonic beasts.
The interior section of the district was more threatening than the mountain range outside. The ancient trees appeared like heavenly totems, being more than fifty meters tall and twice as large as normal trees.
The vines and plants on the ground were also longer. Everything was stronger, whether it was the human beings, Demonic Beasts, or the plants. They were all very large, and gave Qingfeng a constant sense of danger.
He was now in the True Spirit Realm peak stage, but he still felt that his strength was too low. He needed to quickly break into the Earthly Spirit Realm, as that was the only way to solve the crisis here.
Soon, Qingfeng Li and the others came to a patch of very tall flowers. Each flower was at least four meters high, twice the height of even very tall humans.
There were only five petals on each flower, and each petal was as big as a basin, with a bright red surface. It looked very beautiful, emitting a demonic aura.
Flower Fairy loved flowers, yet she had never seen flowers grow so big and so beautiful. Her beautiful face was full of joy.
She smiled as she stretched out her pink hand, wanting to touch these flowers.
There was a weird aroma emitting off of them, which apparently attracted women, immersing them in the scent and trapping them.
Ka!
The originally delicate and calm flower suddenly opened their petals, which were covered with white barbs like sharp white crocodile teeth. Each tooth was as long as a chopstick, and the flower fiercely bit towards Flower Fairy.
Flower Fairy’s face turned pale and she became dumbfounded there, as she just wanted to touch the flowers, never imagining that the flowers would open their mouths to take a bite out of her.
Black Puppy’s face became pale and hurriedly said, “This is a Man-Eating Flower, a flower that will devour humans. Let’s quickly kill it.”
Man-Eating Flower?
Qingfeng Li face changed greatly. Though he had not seen Man-Eating Flowers, he had heard the legend of cannibal flowers.
The Man-Eating Flower was a demon flower and their main food source was humans, making them very evil, and sinister organisms.
Qingfeng Li was like a leopard, leaping to Flower Fairy’s side as the Red Fiery Sword in his hands unleashed a powerful sword energy. It split the Man-Eating Flower in half instantly.
“Run, run!” Black Puppy saw Qingfeng Li kill the Man-Eating Flower and his face changed dramatically as he quickly called everyone to run away.
Qingfeng Li puzzled, “Black Puppy, what are we running for? I already killed the Man-Eating Flower.”
Black Puppy’s anxious and said, “There are hundreds of Man-Eating Flowers here, you only killed one. If we don’t run then our asses are going to be buried here.”
Qingfeng Li’s face suddenly changed. He forgot they were in a field of flowers. All around them were Man-Eating Flowers, and he made a big mistake when he only killed one.
Kakaka….
Qingfeng Li and the others wanted to run away, but it was already too late. Hundreds of Man-Eating Flowers all opened their mouths, exposing their fangs and exuding a terrifying presence, completely trapping them..
“Get ready to fight,” Qingfeng’s face changed dramatically as he said to the people around him.
It was too late to run, so they were left no choice but to fight.
Everyone picked up a spiritual device, attacking the Man-Eating Flowers around them.
“Volcanic Condensation.” Qingfeng Li directly used the first skill of the Volcanic Sword Technique. This first sword technique was not the most powerful, but it covered the most area.
There appeared a huge volcano illusion in the air, and they were even able to see the lava river inside. It was emitting a hot atmosphere and directly shrouded a dozen of Man-Eating Flowers around him.
Bam bam bam……
It directly killed a dozen Man-Eating Flowers, turning them into piles of ash.
Needless to say, this Volcanic Sword Technique was extremely powerful. The first move sword was a large area attack, directly killing a large amount of Man-Eating Flowers.
Flower Fairy and Xianzhi Qin were both dazzled since they could only kill one Man-Eating Flower at a time, but Qingfeng Li was able to kill a dozen at once. His attack was too strong.
As for the Black Puppy, this little guy was also ruthless. He released a very stinky fart out of his black ass crack, and the smell was able to kill a lot of Man-Eating Flowers quickly.
The Man-Eating Flowers loved cleanliness and purity so the smell of Black Puppy’s fart was too deadly for them.
Puchi, Puchi, Puchi, Puchi …
Qingfeng Li’s Red Fiery Sword was swinging nonstop. With each swing, dozens of Man-Eating Flower were cut off their stalks and fell to the ground, dying shortly afterwards.
Although Qingfeng Li was killing dozens of Man-Eating Flowers, there was a sea of them; There were too many Man-Eating Flowers around them, hundreds of them.
“Mankind, how dare you kill my sons and daughters. I will kill you,” at this moment, a cold and arrogant voice uttered from the depths.
The one speaking was a huge Man-Eating Flower, five meters high, higher than all the other Man-Eating Flowers; it was the Man-Eating Flower King.
“Earth Spirit Light Veil,” the Man-Eating Flower King spat in a deep voice. It released the Earth Spirit Light Veil that directly shrouded Qingfeng Li because he was currently the most threatening one.
What? This Man-Eating Flower King turned out to be an Earthly Spirit realm early-stage demon flower?
Feeling the Earthly Spirit Realm aura of the Man-Eating Flower King, Qingfeng’s face changed, dread appearing in his eyes.
He had not yet reached the Earthly Spirit Realm so if it was only a half-step Earthly Spirit realm, he would not be afraid. He was most afraid of meeting a real Earthly Spirit Realm fighter and clearly did not think that the Man-Eating Flower King in front of him would turn out to be an Earthly Spirit realm early-stage demon flower. F*CK!
“Human, I am going to kill you now.” Man-Eating Flower King opened his bloody mouth and lunged toward Qingfeng Li.
Xianzhi Qin’s face changed and, with vital essence condensing into her finger, she shorted in a deep voice, “Fiery Emperor’s Finger”.
There was a yellow light flash and, the next moment, Xianzhi Qin was stunned. Her Fiery Emperor’s Finger did not leave a trace at all on the Man-Eating Flower King. This guy was too powerful.
Chapter 1016: Breaking Through Earthly Spirit Realm
Although the Man-Eating Flower King was not hurt, he was angered. How dare a human challenge him, they must be looking for their death.
The Man-Eating Flower King was supposed to be attacking Qingfeng Li, but now it turned its attention to attack Xianzhi Qin.
It opened its mouth, exposing its razor-sharp teeth before instantly lunging for Xianzhi Qin’s head. It looked like she will definitely get swallowed up by the monstrous plant. It was a very dangerous situation!
“Taste my invincible dog fart.” Black Puppy, who was just beside Xianzhi Qin, said as it shook his tail and released a gigantic fart at the Man-Eating Flower King.
Although this fart did not have much attack power, it was really smelly. The Man-Eating Flower King was half incapacitated just by the fart, as it loved cleanliness and this fart was just too unbearable.
“Stupid flowers. Chase me if you dare,” Black puppy shook his tail toward the Man-Eating Flower King with an arrogant smile. He turned around and ran to the side.
The Man-Eating Flower King was mad and concluded that this Black Puppy was really looking for his death. It gave up on attacking Qingfeng Li and Xianzhi Qin, turning its attention onto Black Puppy.
The Black Puppy’s speed was very fast. Within a blink of an eye, he was 500 feet out. Man-Eating Flower King chased after him and slithered away from the rest of the fighting.
An Earthly Spirit Realm’s early-stage demonic beasts’ light energy veil can only cover a range of 500 meters. When the Man-Eating Flower King moved away, the energy veil trapping Qingfeng Li and his party dissipated.
“You guys go first, I am going for a sneak attack on the Man-Eating Flower King’s nest.” Qingfeng Li said as he dashed away.
Flower Fairy and Daoist nodded and, knowing that there was nothing they could do to help, they ran quickly to the side.
After seeing the others leaving, he quickly ran toward where the Man-Eating Flower King first appeared. The nest there contained the Flower King’s seeds.
The Flower King’s seeds were similar to a demonic beast’s “demonic nucleus”, it had some powerful magical powers. The only difference was that a demonic beast’s nucleus was within their body, and the Man-Eating Flower King’s seeds were under the soil.
Qingfeng Li moved like lightning and quickly arrived at the soil beside the Man-Eating Flower King’s nest.
The surrounding Man-Eating Flowers were opening their mouth to bite him, but Qingfeng swung his sword and used a powerful sword energy beam to kill all the Man-Eating Flower around him.
Qingfeng Li reached out his right hand and digged directly into the soil. In a short moment, he had excavated a large hole and discovered a red seed in it. The seed was the size of an egg and it exuded a powerful aura. Just feeling it would make you shudder.
There was joy in Qingfeng Li’s eyes, as he discovered this seed was actually an Earthly Spirit Realm seed. He knew that if he consumed this seed, he could break through to the Earthly Spirit Realm. Killing the Man-Eating Flower King would be a piece of cake by then.
Qingfeng Li opened his mouth and swallowed the Flower King seed, which had a sweet peachy flavor. He crushed it in his mouth and swallowed it quickly.
The Flower King seed unleashed a huge torrent of energy as Qingfeng digested it, and the abundant energy rushed through his muscles, meridians, bones, and finally converged to his dantian.
Qingfeng Li’s dantian worked really fast, like an engine, and quickly absorbed all the energy from the Flower King seeds. The pale green spirit nucleus started to change, slowly turning from pale green to red. At first, a small part turned red, before the whole nucleus turned crimson.
A pale green spirit nucleus was the sign of a True Spirit Realm fighter whilst a red spirit nucleus represented advancement to the Earthly Spirit Realm.
Bang!
A powerful momentum was emanating from Qingfeng Li. He punched a full 15,000 pounds of force, causing 15 black vortexes to appear in the air.
“I finally broke into the Earthly Spirit realm.” Qingfeng Li felt so excited that his heart almost stopped.
Strictly speaking, Qingfeng Li should be thanking the Man-Eating Flower King. It was with the help of the Flower King seed’s that he was able to break through to the Earthly Spirit Realm.
While Qingfeng Li was happy, the Man-Eating Flower King was not, due to loss of the Flower King’s seed, as the seed was the crystallization of all of its energy.
“Qingfeng Li, you dare to eat my seed?! I will eat you!” the Man-Eating Flower King said with strong murderous intent. The Man-Eating Flower King was feeling a strong hatred.
Qingfeng Li just sneered. He did not care, and his eyes were full of contempt. He had now reached the Earthly Spirit realm and he no longer needed to fear Man-Eating Flower King.
The Man-Eating Flower King saw that Qingfeng Li’s eyes was full of disdain. This made it even angrier as how could the glorious Flower King be looked down by human beings.
Boom!
The Man-Eating Flower King exuded a powerful aura, deeply uttering, “Earth Spirit Light Veil.”
A 40-meter-long red energy veil that looked like a sea of red flame quickly shrouded Qingfeng.
“Flaming Earthly Spirit Light Veil,” Qingfeng Li shouted in a deep voice, releasing his light veil which turned directly into the 40-foot-long flame. This was his newly developed technique, which quickly collided into the Man-Eating Flower King’s red energy veil. There was a huge bang.
Strong energy dissipated towards all sides and overwhelming energy bolts flew into the surroundings, instantly ripping apart the surrounding foliage and fauna, turning the area into a dusty crater.
Some nearby Man-Eating Flower died by the explosion of this massive energy shock. They were not resistant to Earthly Spirit Realm attacks at all.
Thanks to their early departure. Flower Fairy and Xianzhi Qin were not hit by this energy.
“You pesky human, you actually broke into the Earthly Spirit Realm,” the Man-Eating Flower King said coldly.
The Man-Eating Flower King remembered clearly. Just now, this human was at the True Spirit Realm pinnacle tier, but in a blink of an eye, he broke into the Earthly Spirit Realm early-stage. It knew that he had eaten the Flower King seed, and the image of his flower seed being devoured made it so angry, it felt like it was on fire.
The Man-Eating Flower King opened its huge mouth, exposing its razor sharp teeth. With a bloodthirsty stare, it tried to bite Qingfeng Li. It was going to kill this human.
“Strangle Hell Fist, Mountain-Crushing Fist!” Qingfeng Li used the second punching technique from the Strangle Hell Fist. His vital essence condensed into a huge mountain river projection.
Previously the mountain river projection was only 25 meters, but now it had become 50 meters. Now that his strength broke into Earthly Spirit Realm, his attack power was also tripled.
Huge mountain river projection hit Man-Eating Flower King’s teeth heavily. Its sharp teeth were all crushed, shattering into countless pieces.
It was too strong! This Strangle Hell Fist attack is really too strong. The Man-Eating Flower King’s teeth were all destroyed as it let out a painful scream.
Qingfeng Li pulled out his Red Fiery Sword, which released a 40-meter-long fierce sword energy. Facing the Man-Eating Flower King, Qingfeng beheaded the plant, allowing the disembodied flower head to roll onto the ground.
The Man-Eating Flower King had died, being beheaded by Qingfeng Li’s sword.
After seeing the Man-Eating Flower King’s death, all the other Man-Eating Flower started to run away. They didn’t dare to stay even for a moment. Deep down, they were really scared, as they began regarding this youth in front of them as a demon, even more terrifying than the Man-Eating Flower King.
Chapter 1017: Sword Aura Valley
“Boss, you are so amazing! You just one shot the Man-Eating Flower King,” Daoist came in front of Qingfeng Li and said with adoring eyes.
Not only Daoist, but also Flower Fairy and Xianzhi Qin had arrived beside Qingfeng L, and were shooting adoring gazes at him. It’s like their eyes were filled with shiny stars. If they tried to deal with the Man-Eating Flower King, they would’ve been killed with just one move but, Qingfeng had just killed the Man-Eating Flower King with great ease.
As for that Black Puppy, it obtained two Demonic Pills. He originally wanted to show off, but when he saw how powerful Qingfeng Li was, he got scared and just buried his head without saying anything.
Qingfeng Li nodded, waved his hand and said, “Let’s go! Move on.”
Qingfeng Li was now a fighter in the Earthly Spirit Realm. When he encountered average general beasts at the early-stage of Earthly Spirit Realm, he could kill them easily. Those average demonic beasts were not his match.
Qingfeng Li and his party headed forward. On the way, they met many people, all of whom were disciples from various sects.
The Heavenly Sword Sect, Black Blade Sect, Stone Sect, and the other sects had sent people into the Kunlun Mountains this time. There were more than 100 elite disciples came from each sect with a total of one thousand people. Qingfeng Li had just killed a dozen people, and there were still many people that he did not even meet yet.
“Do you know? The Sword Aura Valley is up ahead.”
“I have heard about it too. Many disciples of different sects are gathering there. I was told that a fighter in the Spirit King Realm split open the mountain in half, creating this Sword Aura Valley”.
“There’s a lot of sword energy in the Sword Aura Valley. With these sword energies, your sword techniques can escalate to a higher level.” Some passing disciples were gossiping, talking about the Sword Aura Valley in front of them.
Hearing these people’s discussion, Qingfeng Li heart leapt. He thought this was an opportunity to progress his sword technique comprehension so he decided that he must go to Sword Aura Valley.
The Dark Night Emperor was sleeping in the Red Fiery Sword, and he could only be awakened by absorbing a large amount of sword energy into it. Qingfeng Li must save the Dark Night Emperor because it could be said that he was his mentor, who taught Qingfeng Li a lot.
The Sword Aura Valley was fifty miles south of the center of the Kunlun Mountains. It was a huge valley that was between two mountains, each over a 1000 meters high. There were steep mountains and rugged rocks, each of which was extremely sharp and was emitting a fantastic sword energy.
The valley was between these two mountains, with gusts of wind forming wind blades everywhere. The more sword energy there was, the fiercer it became, just like a bunch of white rays slicing through the air.
In the middle of the Sword Aura Valley, there was a lot of white grass. These stalks of grass were only the size of a palm, but their leaves were very sharp, emitting sharp sword energy. This was sword energy grass, a common grass which had absorbed sword energy its entire life, which had allowed them to develop into elixirs.
At this point, the Sword Aura Valley gathered a lot of people, including the Heavenly Sword Sect’s Erjian Zhao, who was Sanjian Zhao’s Senior Brother and a powerful person at the early-stage of the Earthly Spirit Realm. He stood at the north side, occupying the most favorable position.
A dark and strong youth stood at the south side, called Zhuang Hei. He was Chuang Hei’s Junior Brother yet was stronger than Chuang Hei, as he was already in the early-stage of the Earthly Spirit Realm.
A skinny and tall young man stood at the east side, with a strong and muscled body. His name was Gang Pan, a genius disciple from the Stone Sect.
Lastly, a youth wearing a bloody shirt stood on the west side. His name was Xue Ta and he was ranked within the top five most powerful disciples of the Blood Demon Sect.
These self-cultivation sect disciples were looking at the sword energy grass in the Sword Aura Valley greedily, wanting to rush in and grab as much as they could.
They occupied all four places in the south, east, north, and west. The disciples of smaller forces could only observe from far away.
Only those who were strong could seize the opportunity. Truly, the law of the jungle dominated the self-cultivation world, and weaklings are only left with nothing.
“Zhuang Hei, you cultivate blade techniques so the sword energy grass has little effect on you. You should give it to me,” Erjian Zhao faintly smiled and said.
Zhuang Hei curled lips and replied, “This precious sword energy grass contains sword energy and I can auction it off in exchange for Spirit Stones. I can’t hand it over to you.”
Gang Pan from the Stone Sect did not talk, but his intention was clear. He could not give up the sword grass as well.
When Qingfeng Li arrived, he overheard the few competing for the elixirs and knew that the situation would quickly devolve into a fight for sure.
Qingfeng Li walked toward the front from the back. He just took a few steps but was stopped by a short-haired disciple. This disciple coldly said, “You are the last to come, so you have to line up from behind.”
After Qingfeng Li heard that, he was put in a bad mood and coldly said, “F*ck off.”
“Little guy, I am a man of the Seven Star Sect. You dare to tell me to f*ck off?!” The short-haired disciple faintly smiled and coldly said.
Seven Star Sect?
Qingfeng Li faintly frowned, searching memories but not being able to remember this martial art sect.
Flower Fairy spoke at this time. She slightly pouted and said, “The Seven Star Sect is a spirit level self-cultivation sect. It’s at the same level as the Hundred-fFower Palace.”
After listening to the explanation of Flower Fairy, Qingfeng Li understood the situation. He did not care about the strength of the Hundred-flower Palace, let alone the Seven Star Sect.
“Once again, scram or I will kill you .” Qingfeng Li sneered and said.
Qingfeng Li needed the sword energy grass to save the Dark Night Emperor and would kill anyone who got in his way.
The Seven Star Sect disciple’s face changed as a cold flash appeared in his eyes. He thought that if he revealed his martial art sect, Qingfeng Li would be scared sh*tless by him. But instead, Qingfeng had just looked down on him.
The Seven Star Sect disciple pulled out his sword and lunged forward, piercing the air with a fierce sword energy as he slashed at Qingfeng Li.
Keng!
Qingfeng Li twirled his wrist and took out his Red Fiery Sword, drawing an arc in the air. The sword energy of the Red Fiery Sword directly clashed with the sword of the Seven Star Sect disciple, immediately hacking off half of it.
After hacking off the Seven Star disciple’s sword, Qingfeng Li pierced his throat directly and left a bloody hole as blood spattered everywhere. The Seven Star disciple fell to the ground.
The Seven Star disciples next to the fallen disciple wanted to avenge his Senior Brother after seeing him killed and they raised their swords toward Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li ‘s sword swung across the sky, forming an arc in the air. He hacked off all the swords of the Seven Star disciple and left a red bloodstain on their necks as well.
Puchi, Puchi, Puchi …
All the Seven Star disciples were lying on the ground, blood splashing out of their throats, as they slowly drew their last breaths.
Qingfeng Li killed all the Seven Star disciples and the faces of all the surrounding disciples from other sects turned pale. This Qingfeng Li was too strong. He didn’t even blink when he was killing someone and would kill you from just a slight disagreement.
Qingfeng Li walked toward the front, and the surrounding disciples from the other small sects gave way. No one dared to stop him.
After a while, Qingfeng Li came to the front side of the Sword Aura Valley. All the small martial art sect disciples didn’t dare to stop him but, it did not mean that those disciples from larger, more reputable forces dared not stop him.
“Little boy, how dare you kill someone in front of me! You are too arrogant,” Erjian Zhao, from the Heavenly Sword Sect, sneered with a cold flash in his eyes as he said to Qingfeng.
Chapter 1018: A Fierce Battle with Erjian Zhao
Qingfeng Li stared at the Sword Aura Valley before him without sparing a glance at Erjian Zhao.
Erjian Zhao’s expression changed, furious at the young man’s arrogance and obvious disregard toward him.
His right foot kicked abruptly a piece of rock toward Qingfeng Li. It ripped through the air with a whistling sound and was upon him in a blink of an eye.
Frowning slightly, Qingfeng Li shot out two fingers and, as quick as lightning, caught the rock between them.
His eyes glinted. This detestable Erjian Zhao was asking for death by sneak attacking him with a rock.
Swoosh!
Qingfeng Li shot the rock back toward Erjian Zhao with a greater speed than the previous attack.
The original assaultant leaned his head to one side trying to dodge it but the rock was so fast that some of his hair was cut off and fell to the ground.
Self-cultivators valued every part of their body since it was a gift from their parents and were containers for their vital essence. Erjian Zhao decided to kill Qingfeng Li, as he was incredibly angered that his hair was cut off.
“Bastard, you dared to cut off my hair. I will kill you for it,” Erjian Zhao said gloomily, his murderous thoughts clearly written in his eyes.
Klang!
He drew out his sword and pointed it at Qingfeng Li. Emitting a sharp sword aura, it was a snow-white sword with a width of about ten centimeters and a length of one meter.
“Silver Snow Sword! It is the Silver Snow Sword,” The surrounding people yelled when they recognized the white sword with astonishment.
Quite renowned among the younger generation of self-cultivators, the Silver Snow Sword was one of the ten most powerful earth-grade spiritual devices.
With this sword, Erjian Zhao had conquered countless rivals in the self-cultivation world and had become one of the three strongest disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Yijian Zhao, Erjian Zhao, and Sanjian Zhao were the three geniuses of sword techniques within the Heavenly Sword Sect but a third of them had already been killed by Qingfeng Li.
“Silver Snow Crossing Sky,” Erjian Zhao yelled in a cold voice and launched the first Silver Snow Sword Technique, which transformed the sword energy into a giant illusionary snowflake that spun through the air toward Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li drew out the Red Fiery Sword and said coldly, “Volcanic Condensation.”
A giant shadow of a volcano took shape in the sky and its burning presence turned the surrounding air into scorching gusts of wind.
Boom!
The Silver Snow Sword Technique and Volcanic Sword Technique crashed into each other violently with a huge explosion sound.
It was a collision of two totally opposite forces when the giant snowflake and the huge volcano crashed into each other, sending the mud and rocks around them flying in all directions.
Deng, deng!
Faces grim, Qingfeng Li and Erjian Zhao both retreated, neither gaining the upper hand.
Qingfeng Li’s eyes sharpened. It was the first time that he had met a rival who could be his match since he had mastered the Volcanic Sword Techniques.
The Sanjian art geniuses of the Heavenly Sword Sect showed that they definitely deserved their reputations.
“Silver Snow Mountain Condensation.” Erjian Zhao launched the second Silver Snow Sword Technique, which summoned a huge iceberg.
With an area as big as forty square meters, the iceberg crashed toward Qingfeng Li with a chilling air.
“Volcanic Tumble.” Qingfeng Li launched the second Volcanic Sword Technique which transformed into a huge volcano shadow with burning magma surging from its opening.
Rumble!
The huge iceberg and the magma collided into each other with a tremendous sound, creating a huge black hole between the sky and the earth.
After the collision, both the iceberg and the magma vanished in the air and this round of attacks ended in a draw again.
Qingfeng Li’s face turned grim, astonished at the power of the sword arts of the Heavenly Sword Sect, which were well-deserving of their reputation as a sword arts self-cultivation sect.
But Erjian Zhao was even more astonished. As one of the absolute geniuses of the Heavenly Sword Sect, it would be a disgrace for him if he could not defeat Qingfeng Li.
“Silver Snowfall Condensation.” He launched the third Silver Snow Sword Technique which condensed his water-natured vital essence into a huge frozen waterfall full of horribly sharp ice knifes that crashed towards Qingfeng.
“Volcanic Explosion,” Faced with the terrifying force of the waterfall, Qingfeng Li launched the third Volcanic Sword Technique which tossed out a gigantic volcano shadow.
Boom!
The gigantic volcano shadow crashed into the frozen waterfall creating a deafening huge sound.
Deng, deng!!
They both retreated on step. Neither of them could gain the upper hand using only sword techniques.
At that moment, a huge noise sounded from the inside of the Sword Aura Valley. Shaken by their powerful attacks, the violent sword energy in the valley was activated and began running wildly in there, darkening the sky with its tremendous force.
“Let’s go get the Sword Energy Grass.” With a roar, Zhuang Hei from the Black Blade Sect rushed into the valley.
Only when the sword energy ran wild could people grab the Sword Energy Grass in there.
Erjian Zhao also gave up the fight with Qingfeng Li and dashed toward the valley, intending to grab the Sword Energy Grass before killing Qingfeng Li.
Swoosh!
Qingfeng Li shot forward like an arrow, dashing into the valley. While everyone else was fighting for the Sword Energy Grass, he took out the Red Fiery Sword and collected the sword energy in the valley.
Hiss!
Large amounts of sword energy in the valley went into Red Fiery Sword, which were quickly assimilated into his own.
After absorbing large amounts of sword energy, the Red Fiery Sword began to release a red aura, a sign of its evolution.
Then it stopped absorbing the sword energy when it was full of it.
“Senior, are you awake?” Qingfeng Li asked the Dark Night Emperor resting inside the sword.
“The grade of the sword energy is too low. To completely wake me up, you must take the Sword Energy Grass which contains the essence of sword energy,” the Dark Night Emperor said in a weak voice.
Chapter 1019: The Awakening of Dark Night Emperor
“Senior, don’t worry. I will get the Sword Energy Grass for you,” Qingfeng Li turned and rushed towards the masses competing for the Sword Energy Grass.
He wanted to wake up the Dark Night Emperor because the latter was his guide and teacher in the self-cultivation world and Qingfeng Li would be more confident with the Dark Night Emperor at his side.
There were only three stalks of Sword Energy Grass in the valley and everyone was fighting to get them.
The moment Qingfeng Li ran near the grass, Erjian Zhao stopped him with a stab of his Silver Snow Sword.
Besides Erjian Zhao, Zhuang Hei from the Black Blade Sect, Gang Pan from the Stone Sect and Ta Xue from the Demon Blood Sect were also fighting for the Sword Energy Grass.
“Qingfeng Li, the Sword Energy Grass is mine. Get your ass out of here,” Erjian Zhao sneered.
“The Sword Energy Grass is the result of sword energy condensation in the valley. How can you say it’s yours?” Qingfeng Li asked disdainfully.
Erjian Zhao was as shameless as his junior brother Sanjian Zhao, declaring everything they wanted as theirs.
Erjian Zhao stabbed his sword at Qingfeng Li with a tremendous force while Qingfeng retaliated by slashing out a giant flame bolt from his sword that violently crashed into his opponent’s sword.
On the other side, Zhuang Hei and Gang Pan began their fight, while Ta Xue was battling someone else. Their all wanted the Sword Energy Grass.
Klang, klang, klang…
Red Fiery Sword and Silver Snow Sword collided for dozens of times and the violent sword energy emitting from them spread outward and blasted the surrounding rocks into small pieces.
Deng, deng!!
Qingfeng Li and Erjian Zhao both took one step back. With their sword techniques refinement on the same level, they were in a draw.
Qingfeng Li frowned and put away the Red Fiery Sword. Knowing he couldn’t defeat Erjian Zhao with only sword techniques, he decided to switch to another attacking method.
“Mountain-Crushing Fist!” He whipped out his right fist abruptly and the Strangle Hell Fist turned his vital essence into a huge nature shadow which crashed onto Erjian Zhao’s sword with a loud sound, forcing him to retreat a step.
With Strangle Hell Body refinement, Qingfeng Li’s physique was unrivalled in his realm and could even block his rival’s long sword.
“Such strong physique,” Erjian Zhao’s eyes turned grim.
He was no match for Qingfeng Li in physical strength since Qingfeng Li had forced him back with only one fist strike against his Silver Snow Sword.
Qingfeng Li continued his attacks with fist techniques and forced the pale-faced Erjian Zhao to retreat step by step
The Strangle Hell Fist was so powerful that each time Qingfeng Li smashed his fist on Erjian Zhao’s Silver Snow Sword with a loud bang.
Erjian Zhao retreated continuously under Qingfeng Li’s fist strikes.
Boom!
With Dragon Steps, Qingfeng Li moved behind Erjian Zhao and punched him on the back. The latter was sent flying and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Then Qingfeng Li extended his right hand and plucked up one piece of Sword Energy Grass.
.
He pointed the Red Fiery Sword at the Sword Energy Grass and transferred all the sword energy from the grass to the Dark Night Emperor, eventually awakening him from his deep sleep.
The sword energy in the grass was of such a high-grade that one piece of it was already enough to wake up the Dark Night Emperor.
“Little one, you must take the other two pieces of Sword Energy Grass. The sword intent of fire contained within will help you gain insight,” the Dark Night Emperor transmitted a message to Qingfeng Li.
Sword intent of fire?
Qingfeng Li was excited because sword intent would help him in mastering his sword techniques. As with the spirit realm energy shield, it could form a sword intent light veil to engulf his rival with attacks.
And the attacks of sword intent were similar but stronger than spiritual attacks.
Quickly executing his Dragon Steps, Qingfeng Li rushed toward the other two stalks of Sword Energy Grass. He was so fast that he was upon the elixirs in a flash.
No one could catch up with the speed of his Dragon Steps.
Swoosh, swoosh!!
Qingfeng Li reached out his right hand and snatched up both stalks of Sword Energy Grass.
“Hand over the grass and I will spare your life,” Zhuang Hei said in a cold voice.
Gang Pan and Ta Xue were silent but their eyes were glued to the Sword Energy Grass in Qingfeng Li’s hand. They all wanted the treasure.
With a light smile, Qingfeng Li turned and ran, knowing that he couldn’t deal with them all at once with his present strength.
His plan was simple: he would gain insight of the sword intent in the grass and then turn around to kill these people.
“Sky-Strengthening Blade.” With a roar, Zhuang Hei hacked his long saber toward Qingfeng’s back.
“King Kong Fist,” Gang Pan roared and turned his right fist into a shadow of giant gorilla, smashing it towards Qingfeng Li.
“Towering Palm.” Ta Xue pushed out his right palm which transformed into a giant illusion of a bloody tower that emitted a sinister bloody presence that crashed toward Qingfeng Li’s heart.
The three strikes were all very cunning and were all aimed at vital parts of Qingfeng’s body.
Smiling indifferently, Qingfeng Li smashed his Strangle Hell Fist at them and forced Zhuang Hei back one step, and Gang Pan back two steps. His physical strength totally subdued them.
At the same time, Qingfeng Li dodged Ta Xue’s palm strike with Dragon Steps.
Quick as lightning, he broke out from their siege and, with his Dragon Steps technique, he turned to run and instantly vanished in a flicker of a dragon-esque shadow.
With Qingfeng Li gone, Erjian Zhao, Zhuang Hei, and the others surrounded Flower Fairy, Xianzhi Qin, Daoist, and others.
“Erjian Zhao, what are you doing?”Flower Fairy asked coldly.
“You came with Qingfeng Li. We will hold you in hostage and force him to hand over the Sword Energy Grass,” Erjian Zhao said with a cold smile.
Zhuang Hei, Gang Pan, and Ta Xue all looked at them chillingly with the same intention.
“You want to catch us? No way,” Flower Fairy said with a cold smile.
She had stayed with Qingfeng Li for quite a while and had been influenced by his arrogant manners, regarding her opponents with contempt.
