Chapter 1247: Asking About Peacock Demon Empress
Qingfeng Li faintly smiled, as he faced the seductive woman and asked, “What is your name?”
The delicate woman frowned and said, “Qingfeng Li, how can you ask for our sect master’s name?”
Regarding Qingfeng, that delicate woman always looked at him with unpleasant eyes, and she tried to seize any chance to criticize Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li frowned upon hearing the scolding from the delicate woman, causing him to have somewhat of a bad mood.
Qingfeng Li had just asked a simple question as to what the name of that pretty woman was, so why was this delicate woman so fierce in her response towards him? Did he owe her a billion dollars?
Qingfeng Li did not know that this seductive woman was an expert at the half-step Spirit Emperor Realm, and that she was also the strongest in the Demonic World.
Normally, when people met the seductive woman, all of them were reverent and respectful. How dare someone simply ask for her name?
“Xiaoqing, stop talking.” The seductive woman glared at the delicate woman, indicating for her to stop talking.
“My name is Linger Yao,” the seductive woman faintly smiled, answering with her name.
When the seductive woman was smiling, she was very gorgeous. The inside of the carriage was emitting a kind of light, which impressed people with a bright and intimate feeling.
Qingfeng Li’s eyes revealed a stunned look. He had met quite a few women before, but the woman in front of him had impressed him with a unique beauty, so he could not take his eyes off of her.
But at next second, Qingfeng Li’s face clouded.
“Linger Yao? The seductive woman said she was Linger Yao.”
Upon hearing that name, Qingfeng Li’s heart was engulfed in a stormy sea.
Qingfeng Li remembered very clearly that Fengwu Cao introduced him to Linger Yao when they had arrived outside the forbidden district of the Kunlun Mountains.
The Demonic-Emperor Sect’s sect master was called Linger Yao, she was an expert at the half-step Spirit Emperor Realm, and was known as the number one in the Demonic World. Her strength was as high as the heavens and she was at the top of the top in Huaxia’s world of self-cultivators.
Qingfeng Li was at the back at that moment, so he did not get to see Linger Yao’s appearance.
He had just once heard the name of Linger Yao, while he never saw her appearance personally. Now that he had met her, his heart was full of shock.
From Qingfeng Li’s reasoning, if Linger Yao was able to cultivate to the half-step of the Spirit Emperor Realm, she should be a middle-aged woman, or an old man.
But now, on the contrary, the seductive woman in front of Qingfeng Li was Linger Yao, who turned out to be just a woman around twenty years old, about the same age as himself.
At this moment, Qingfeng Li felt that Huaxia truly had many hidden dragons and crouching tigers; there were truly tons of geniuses lurking everywhere.
Qingfeng Li used to think that he was a genius himself, since he was able to cultivate to the Spirit King Realm when he was very young. But it seemed like Linger Yao was not worse than Qingfeng Li’s talent.
“Qingfeng Li, I felt a burst of demonic aura from you. I wonder if you’re refining a Demonic Dao Cultivation technique or if you had been in contact with some seniors of the Demonic Dao,” Linger Yao’s slender eyelashes slightly winked as she looked at Qingfeng Li and asked.
Qingfeng Li’s heart dropped. That Linger Yao in front of him was extremely sensitive and had a sharp perception. How could she even be aware of his demonic aura?
In fact, Qingfeng Li did not often contact with the demonic world. There was only one person he had really contacted, which was the Demonic Peacock Empress.
The Demonic Peacock Empress was known as the number one master in the demonic world. Being first doesn’t only mean only on Earth, but the entire younger generation of the whole universe.
The Demonic Peacock Empress had once suppressed the world and swept through the younger generation of geniuses in the universe. In the universe that was filled with billions of stars, there were hundreds of millions of youths who attacked Earth, but those young people were all killed by the Demonic Peacock Empress.
With her achievements, the Demonic Peacock Empress built up an impressive reputation.
Qingfeng Li once saw the Demonic Peacock Empress, an existence that was able to compete with the Heavenly Dao itself.
Although the Demonic Peacock Empress was now suppressed by the Heavenly Dao at Dragon-Tiger Mountain, Qingfeng Li believed that one day, she would reappear.
Qingfeng Li was silent for a moment, then opened his mouth to say, “I once had met Demonic Peacock Empress before.”
“Demonic Peacock Empress?”
Linger Yao’s face changed dramatically, her eyes showing a touch of astonishment.
As the first empress of the demonic world, people were crystal clear that she had a peerless talent for thousands of years. She was ranked first in the demonic world from the ancient era to modern times, and her reputation was able to transcend through generations and sweep through the whole universe.
Not only was Linger Yao shocked, but the delicate woman next to Linger Yao was shocked as well.
The delicate woman had a bone to pick with Qingfeng’s words earlier, but now, the disgust in her eyes dissipated a lot.
Because the delicate woman knew that people who could see the Demonic Peacock Empress were not ordinary people. Even their sect master, Linger Yao, had not seen the Demonic Peacock Empress before.
“Qingfeng Li, can you tell me where the Demonic Peacock Empress is?” Linger Yao immediately asked in excitement.
Being able to get an expert in the half-step Spirit Emperor Realm excited, it could see how strong the Demonic Peacock Empress was.
Qingfeng Li shook his head and said, “Sorry, I promised Senior Demonic Peacock Empress that I would not tell anyone of her whereabout.”
Hearing Qingfeng Li’s words, there was disappointment in Linger Yao’s eyes. To be honest, Linger Yao had a dream of seeing the Demonic Peacock Empress and to maybe have a chance of obtaining her legacy.
Not only did Linger Yao have this dream, all the self-cultivators that trained in the Demonic Dao had this dream as well. This was because the Demonic Peacock Empress was number one in the demonic world since the ancient times.
Although Qingfeng Li did not tell Linger Yao where the Demonic Peacock Empress was, Linger Yao did not give up. She believed she could find Demonic Peacock Empress one day as long as she followed Qingfeng Li.
But the next moment, Linger Yao’s face changed because Qingfeng had actually gotten up and was about to leave.
Qingfeng Li looked at Linger Yao and said, “My body has recovered pretty well now. Thank you for healing me, I’m going to leave now.”
When Qingfeng Li turned away and wanted to leave, the delicate woman blocked his way, stopping him from leaving.
“What kind of person are you! Our sect master just saved you with a half-step spirit emperor level pill, but now you want to leave without telling us the whereabouts of Demonic Peacock Empress? You totally don’t know how to spell ‘grateful’ at all!” the delicate woman accused Qingqing Li again.
Facing the accusation of the delicate woman, Qingfeng Li felt a touch of dissatisfaction in his heart.
Linger Yao had saved Qingfeng Li’s life, and Qingfeng was naturally grateful. But making him spill the whereabouts of the Demonic Peacock Empress was absolutely impossible.
If it was an ordinary person who dared to block his path and also criticize him, Qingfeng Li definitely would have slapped her.
However, this delicate woman was Linger Yao’s maid, so Qingfeng Li did not do so.
Qingfeng Li did not slap her due to his respect for Linger Yao.
Qingfeng Li knew that she did not want him to leave. Otherwise, the delicate woman would not have dared to stop him.
“Linger Yao, although you saved me, I will have to fight back if you want to keep me here,” Qingfeng Li said as he pulled out his Golden Light Sword.
Qingfeng Li had to go to the Hell underneath the Kunlun Mountains to look for the Perishing-Saint Fruit to save his baby daughter. Naturally, he would not delay any time here.
“Golden Light Sword. Wow you actually have the Golden Light Sword from the Demonic Peacock Empress!!” Linger Yao’s face changed as soon as she saw the sword in Qingfeng Li’s hand. A touch of shock appeared in her eyes.
Chapter 1248: The Arrival of Black Wind Duo Demons
Linger Yao had seen books from the demonic world before. During the ancient era, the Demonic Peacock Empress had once used the Golden Light Sword
Linger Yao knew that, in order to use the Golden Light Sword, one must first seek permission and approval from the Demonic Peacock Empress. In other words, Qingfeng Li had already been approved by the Demonic Peacock Empress.
“Qingfeng Li, I will release you out of respect for the Demonic Peacock Empress. You may leave now.” Linger Yao sighed in her heart, her gaze glimmering. She decided to let Qingfeng Li leave.
Linger Yao knew that if she kept Qingfeng here any longer, she would be going against the Demonic Peacock Empress. His possession of the Golden Light Sword was proof of this.
“Thank you,” Qingfeng Li said as he turned towards Linger Yao. “Regardless of what had happened between us, you saved my life. I owe you one,”
Qingfeng Li was one to clearly distinguish kindness from hate. He had been injured and had almost died. It was Linger Yao who came to his rescue, feeding him a recovery pill and carrying him away from the scene on her carriage. He will never forget her kindness.
As soon as they finished their conversation, Qingfeng Li turned and got off the carriage, ready to leave.
“Sect Master, are you just going to let Qingfeng Li leave?” asked the young woman, furrowing her brows at the sight of Qingfeng Li leaving. “If he leaves, we will never get any information regarding the Demonic Peacock Empress.”
Linger Yao smiled lightly and said, “I don’t want him to leave either, but I have no other choice. He has the Golden Light Sword with him, which was previously owned by the Demonic Peacock Empress. That means that not only has he met with the Empress but that he has also impressed her greatly. We cannot offend him.”
Qingfeng Li couldn’t hear the conversation between the two women. He didn’t know what was being said about him, and, truthfully, he wouldn’t have cared.
Qingfeng Li was too busy with two important thoughts. One, he needed to quickly find the Wolf Fang Team and Black Puppy. Two, he needed Black Puppy to guide him towards the entrance of Hell.
Not long after Qingfeng departed from Linger Yao’s group, his expression changed dramatically.
He was greeted by the sight of two people, and they were none other than the Black Wind Duo Demons.
“Little bastard, let’s see where you’ll run to this time.” Black Wind glared at Qingfeng Li with murderous intent.
Qingfeng Li’s face darkened, surprised by the Black Wind Duo Demons’ speed. They were indeed masters at the half-step Spirit Emperor Realm. Their speed was just too incredible.
With one swift movement, Qingfeng Li turned his body to run away.
Unfortunately for him, Black Wind was even faster, blocking the path behind him instantly. Qingfeng Li was now sandwiched between Black Wind and Black Evil with nowhere to escape.
Many passing self-cultivators were shocked by this sight.
“Look! The Black Wind Duo Demons are going to kill someone.”
“Of course I’m looking. This time, Qingfeng Li is dead for sure. He killed the Black Wind Duo Demons’ disciple so they are going to slice him to pieces.”
“No one can survive the Black Wind Duo Demons.”
All the passing self-cultivators stopped and gazed from afar, looking at Qingfeng as if he was already dead.
Qingfeng Li’s face appeared grave, as he knew that he was in a bad situation. With the slightest wrong move, he would surely die.
He was only a level 5 Spirit King Realm master. He cannot even defeat one half-step Spirit Emperor Realm master, not to mention two.
He didn’t even get the chance to escape this time as he was surrounded by the Black Wind Duo Demons. They were within ten meters of where he stood, capable of attacking him at any moment.
Danger was soon to be upon him.
“Hahahaha, Black Wind Duo Demons. You two are both half step Spirit Emperor Realm masters, highly regarded throughout the self-cultivation world. Are you not embarrassed at picking on a young self-cultivator?” Suddenly, a sound of laughter came from afar.
The laughter sounded crisp and tender, pleasing to the ears, but it was also filled with contempt, mocking the Black Wind Duo Demons.
The surrounding self-cultivators were all stunned by the mocking laughter.
” Who is this arrogant, this audacious to blatantly mock the Black Wind Duo Demons?”
“Old woman, it looks like we haven’t killed someone for too long… there are actually some people that dare to laugh at us now,” Black Wind said towards Black Evil.
“A self-cultivator actually dares to mock us.”
Black Evil nodded and said, “Yes, we must find the one who dared to mock us and tear them into pieces.”
“Black Wind Duo Demons, do you want to kill me?” Suddenly, a chilling voice sounded in the air, its tone cold as could be.
As the voice faded, a seductive woman in a carriage appeared in front of everyone.
At the sight of the carriage, everyone was stunned.
“Who is this person? How is she traveling through the forbidden district in a carriage?” everyone whispered.
At the sight of the magic carriage, both Black Wind and Black Evil’s faces changed. Others may not have recognized the magic carriage, but they did. They had battled its owner before.
A woman lifted the curtains of the carriage and walked out. She was very beautiful, her face seductive and alluring, her figure graceful and slender like the leaves from a willow tree, gently flowing in the wind.
The beauty descended from the carriage, watching the Black Wind Duo Demons with chilling eyes.
“Linger Yao, you are the sect master of the Demonic-Emperor Sect. Why are you stopping me from killing Qingfeng Li?” Black Evil asked, furrowing her brows.
Black Evil was extremely irritated by the sight of Linger Yao because while both were women, Linger Zhao was beautiful and Black Evil was not.
Black Evil always had a natural hate towards beautiful women.
There was once a beautiful female cultivator who tried to seduce Black Wind. After Black Evil caught wind of the news, she immediately disfigured the female cultivator, even going as far as to dismember and kill the woman.
Basically, Black Wind and Black Evil were both evil, and they had both committed a lot of bad deeds.
“Ugly woman, who I save is my business. Release Qingfeng Li and get out of here,” Linger Yao sneered.
Black Evil’s face turned livid. As a half step Spirit Emperor Realm master, she wasn’t about to forgive being cursed at.
“Linger Yao, you think I’m afraid of you just because you’re the sect master of the Demonic-Emperor sect? I am definitely killing Qingfeng Li today. What are you going to do about it?” Black Evil sneered coldly, glaring at Linger Yao with icy eyes.
Bang!
Black Evil waved her hand in the air, turning it into a gigantic claw, clawing down upon Qingfeng Li’s head, wanting to pierce five black holes in his brain.
Linger Yao’s eyes flashed cold from anger. This stupid Black Evil… she dares to not listen to me?! She needs to die.
Linger Yao suddenly swung out her right hand, summoning a large white palm that covered the sky. Striking down ferociously, her palm directly shattered Black Evil’s claw, with the latter disappearing into thin air.
Qingfeng Li didn’t move nor run away.
Sandwiched by Black Wind and Black Evil, he knew that it was impossible for him to run.
He didn’t dare to move either because both the Black Wind Duo Demons and Linger Yao were masters at the half step spiritual emperor realm. All three of them were incredibly powerful.
If he moved his body, the attacks would probably hit him. Even if he didn’t die, he would surely be heavily injured.
Chapter 1249: The Purple Thunder Sword
Qingfeng Li stood still without running away or even moving. He watched quietly as Linger Yao and Black Evil battled it out.
As the number one master of the Demonic Dao, Linger Yao was stronger than Black Evil.
Black Evil’s every attack was shattered by Linger Yao’s powerful palms. Her attacks couldn’t even reach Qingfeng Li.
“Demonic Emperor Hand.” With a low roar, Linger Yao lashed out with her right hand, turning it into a giant white palm that struck down upon Black Evil’s body.
Black Evil’s face tensed up from fear as she felt a great sense of danger from the gigantic palm.
She also swung her claws into the air, unleashing the Nine Hellish Claw in an attempt to defend against the attack from Linger Yao.
Unfortunately for her, Linger Yao had used 70 percent of her strength in this attack.
With unrivaled power, Linger Yao struck down on Black Evil’s claw, forcing the latter to retreat backwards. A trace of an injury appeared on Black Evil’s claw; her skin was broken.
“Black Evil, you’re no match for me,” Linger Yao said coldly, her voice full of contempt.
Black Evil was livid. She turned to Black Wind and said, “Let’s attack together and finish off this demonic witch.”
Black Wind nodded and immediately sprung into action, swinging his claw in the air and joining Black Evil in her attack towards Linger Yao.
Linger Yao laughed coldly, completely unbothered. She was about to face two half step Spirit Emperor Realm masters, but she was completely unfazed.
Linger Yao pulled out a purple long sword. It exuded a purple light and a purple lightning bolt flickered on top of it. This sword was called the Purple Thunder Sword.
The Purple Thunder Sword emitted a sharp radiance, its sword energy radiating in all directions, piercing the skies. An unending ray of lightning circled the long sword in continuous loops.
Boom!
Linger Yao flourished her Purple Thunder Sword through the air, turning it into a flash of lightning and striking down onto the Black Wind Duo Demons, destroying their sharp claws.
Immediately afterwards, Linger Yao flipped her wrist and once again struck the Purple Thunder Sword forward. The sword shot out two purple lightning bolts, hitting the bodies of the Black Wind Duo Demons and forcing them to retreat. Their faces became pale.
Although both Black Wind and Black Evil were extremely powerful, they cultivated in black vital essence and belonged to the Demonic Dao. This meant that they were most afraid of lightning and fire.
Linger Yao was wielding the powers of storms; her Purple Thunder Sword was capable of producing lightning bolts, allowing her to easily defeat both Black Wind and Black Evil.
“Old woman, Linger Yao is stronger than before. Plus, she has the Purple Thunder Sword. We’re no match for her,” Black Wind said with a dark face.
Black Evil’s face changed, and she knew that her husband was right. They weren’t strong enough to fight Linger Yao before, and now that Linger Yao possessed the Purple Strom Sword, they had an even smaller chance of defeating her.
At the same time, Black Evil didn’t want to accept defeat, as she was too embarrassed to do so. After all, she was a master at the half step Spirit Emperor Realm.
“Sky-Roaming Purple Thunder!” Linger Zhao yelled out. With her right hand, she struck out with the Purple Thunder Sword, creating a purple lightning bolt in the sky. The lightning bolt contained an unrivaled power, striking down upon the bodies of both Black Wind and Black Evil, sparks flying everywhere.
Both their clothes were charred by the lightning, and even their hair and their brows were burnt. Luckily for them, they were both in the half step Spirit Emperor Realm and possessed enough body strength to defend against the electrical attack.
Even though the Black Wind Duo Demons survived, their bodies had suffered minor injuries.
“Old woman, we should leave and seek revenge later on.” With a deep roar, Black Wind took Black Evil and turned to run, disappearing in an instant.
Linger Yao didn’t chase after the two. Rather, she was looking in the direction behind Qingfeng Li. There was a man standing there, his name was the Void Monk.
As the saying goes, good and evil cannot tolerate each other.
Linger Yao had battled the Void Monk before and was well aware of his incredible powers. He was a master of the half step Spirit Emperor Realm and a formidable opponent. He was also in possession of a powerful Dharma treasure, the Demon-Imprisoning Bowl.
Qingfeng Li had also noticed the Void Monk standing behind him, but he didn’t speak to him.
Qingfeng Li walked towards Linger Yao and said, “Thank you for saving me. I owe you my life.”
Qingfeng Li knew that if it hadn’t been for Linger Yao, he would have been in grave danger.
No matter what, Linger Yao had saved Qingfeng Li and deserved his gratitude.
Linger Yao nodded without speaking. She had set her gaze on the Void Monk who was standing nearby.
“Amitabha. Good master Qingfeng Li, you are a man of orthodox, how could you pay respect to someone from the Demonic Dao?” Void Monk said to Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li furrowed his brows at these words, feeling slightly irritated.
He didn’t agree with the Void Monk.
“What is the Demonic Dao and what is the Orthodox Dao anyways?”
When he was being chased by the Black Wind Duo Demons, no orthodox forces came to his rescue. It was Linger Yao, a person of the Demonic Dao who saved him.
“Master Void, I respect that you are a senior within the orthodox disciplines, but your beliefs are not always right. Who I thank is my business and I choose to thank Linger Yao,” Qingfeng Li responded with a slight smile.
“Good master Qingfeng Li, you will tarnish your good name if you associate yourself with cultivators of the Demonic Dao,” the Void Monk replied with a slight smile.
Qingfeng Li pouted, completely unbothered. He didn’t care about a person’s demonic or orthodox disciplines. As far as he was concerned, those who helped him were good and those who opposed him were bad.
“Linger Yao, you had hurt my junior brother in the past, so I’m here today to defeat you,” the Void Monk sneered, his eyes icy as could be.
A year ago, when the Void Monk and his Junior Brother went out to train, they had met Linger Yao. They wanted to subdue her but ended up being heavily wounded by her instead.
Linger Yao sneered and said, “Old bald man, don’t pretend to be so noble. You want nothing more than to steal away my Purple Thunder Sword. Why don’t you just come out and say it?”
Her words made the Void Monk frown. She was clearly onto his true intentions.
“Linger Yao, let me tell you, the Purple Thunder Sword was previously owned by the Purple Thunder Saint, the Master of the Storm Temple. It does not belong to you, so hand it over quickly,” the Void Monk huffed coldly.
Although the Void Monk was just a monk, he was very logical and morally convincing.
Above all was his argument that the Purple Thunder Sword belonged to the Storm Temple by reason of it belonging to the Purple Thunder Saint.
Linger Yao laughed coldly and mocked, “The Purple Thunder Saint died during the ancient era. He had gotten the sword off of someone else anyways, so why should I hand it over to you?”
Qingfeng Li stood in his spot, looking left and right, motionless.
It was all very clear to Qingfeng Li now that the Void Monk and Linger Yao were fighting for possession of the Purple Thunder Sword.
Qingfeng Li watched with curiosity and found that the Purple Thunder Sword was indeed a special weapon. It was a half step Spirit Emperor Realm spiritual device.
Chapter 1250: Lifting the Fifth Seal
Shoo!
The Void Monk threw out the white bowl in his hands, sending it flying through the air as it grew to twice its size. It shot out a ray of white light, which contained the radiant aura of Buddha infused with the sound of a faint chant, that smashed towards Linger Yao.
“You’re dead!” Linger Yao roared, her beautiful eyes now painted with rage.
She lashed out with the Purple Thunder Sword, turning it into a purple lightning bolt that blasted across the skies, striking towards the light from the white bowl.
Bam!
With a loud bang, the purple lightning bolt shattered and eradicated the white light.
“Demonic woman, you’ve actually learned the Purple Thunder Sword techniques?!” The Void Monk was taken aback.
The Purple Thunder Sword had once belonged to the Purple Thunder Saint, so it was a weapon of the orthodox disciplines by origin. The fact that it obeyed Linger Yao, a person from a demonic discipline, was completely baffling to the Void Monk.
Linger Yao smiled and said mockingly, “Old fool, I’ve told you before: the Purple Thunder Sword doesn’t belong to the Purple Thunder Saint, nor does it belong to your Storm Temple. How else would I be able to use it?”
Qingfeng Li nodded in agreement with Linger Yao.
In his heart, Qingfeng Li was siding with Linger Yao. After all, she had saved his life, and she had defeated the Black Wind Duo Demons with the Purple Thunder Sword.
“Master Void, why are you here?” Suddenly, a voice sounded from afar.
The voice came from a large muscular man. He was very big and tall, like a metal tower, and he had dark skin and was carrying a giant axe on his back. The head of the axe was a meter long, made completely from meteorite, weighing at least 100,000 kilograms.
“Ta Tie, the Ax Sect is here!”
“I’ve heard that he is great friends with Master Void. He’s definitely here to help the Void Monk.”
“Yes, you’re right. Look, Ta Tie is already walking towards Master Void.”
The surrounding people all spoke in awe, completely shocked by Ta Tie’s arrival.
“Ta Tie, you’re just in time,” the Void Monk said towards Ta Tie, “We need to control this demonic woman.”
Nodding his head, Ta Tie took out his axe and walked towards Linger Yao.
Qingfeng Li furrowed his brows in disgust. “How is this orthodox?”
The Void Monk had started off trying to steal away Linger Yao’s Purple Thunder Sword, and now Ta Tie had shown up, immediately becoming his accomplice.
Qingfeng Li stepped forward, blocking Ta Tie’s path. He said coldly, “It’s a problem between the Void Monk and Linger Yao. Don’t you think it’s inappropriate of you to interrupt?”
“Kid, who the hell are you to tell your Grandpa Ta Tie what to do? Get the hell out of my sight or I will slice you in half,” Ta Tie said as he looked at Qingfeng Li in disdain.
Qingfeng Li laughed coldly and said arrogantly, “You want to split me in half? I’m afraid you’re too stupid to do that.”
“You dare to call me stupid? Do you want to die?” Ta Tie was livid.
Shoo!
Ta Tie smashed out with his giant axe, slicing open the air and striking ruthlessly towards Qingfeng Li.
The ax was very powerful, splintering rocks and blowing up sand in its wake, tearing apart the air and splitting the ground.
Ta Tie was immensely powerful, possessing an arm strength of at least 150,000 kilograms.
Qingfeng Li laughed coldly as he pulled out the Golden Light Sword, striking it forward instantly. He used his most powerful sword technique, and the sword energy he released condensed into an enormous mountainous shadow.
The sword energy mountain mirage collided with the Meteor Stone Axe, emitting an earth-shattering blow.
The space at the point of collision had formed a black vortex, sucking in all the surrounding air.
Deng Deng!
Both Qingfeng Li and Ta Tie retreated backward, and both of them had surprise written on their faces.
Eighth level of the Spirit King realm?
Qingfeng Li furrowed his brows in amazement. From their exchange, he could sense that Ta Tie was a master at the eighth level of the Spirit King Realm.
Although Ta Tie was stronger than Qingfeng Li by three minor realms, Qingfeng Li wasn’t fazed at all.
This was because not long ago, Qingfeng Li had managed to kill the Poison Demon King, who was also a master at the eighth level of the Spirit King Realm.
Qingfeng Li had the ability to battle across realms. Within three levels, once Qingfeng Li used his Green Tower, everyone would be lowered to the same realm as him, and then he would be invincible.
However, Qingfeng Li wasn’t planning on using the Green Tower. Instead, he wanted to improve his fighting power, and this was the perfect opportunity for him to do so.
“Kid, not bad. You were able to defend against my axe. Let’s try it again,” Ta Tie laughed coldly. With the black axe in his hand, he attacked Qingfeng Li once again.
Qingfeng Li looked completely calm, completely unbothered. He also lashed out the Golden Light Sword, clashing it towards the black axe.
Although Qingfeng Li was weaker than Ta Tie, his combat ability was considerable. He wasn’t overpowered in the fight against Ta Tie.
The Void Monk frowned at this sight, clearly irritated. He had hoped for Ta Tie’s assistance in taking down Linger Yao, but now, Qingfeng Li had gotten in the way.
“Old bald donkey, come, let me show you how I’m going to break your Demon-suppressing Bowl,” Linger Yao laughed coldly, her eyes icy.
Linger Yao waved out the Purple Thunder Sword and fought with the Void Monk. Their battle broke apart the air and shattered apart space.
Qingfeng Li glanced at Linger Yao and found that she had gained the upper hand. Although the Void Monk’s Demon-Imprisoning Bowl was powerful, it was useless when fighting Linger Yao.
Qingfeng Li flourished his Golden Light Sword in the air, battling against Ta Tie relentlessly.
As time passed, Qingfeng Li became more and more adept at his sword techniques. He was in tune with every strike of his sword, allowing him to emit an incredible amount of sword energy.
Slowly, the fourth technique of the Golden Light Sword, Sword Energy Mountains and Rivers, could no longer satisfy Qingfeng Li.
He craved for something more powerful. Qingfeng Li had already reached the fifth level of the Spirit King Realm. He wanted a more powerful sword technique, and the only way to do this was to take off the Golden Light Sword’s fifth seal.
Qingfeng Li searched his mind for the correct method and began to mumble the chant.
The chant turned into a golden rune that originated from the ancient era and was unintelligible to present day people. It entered into the Golden Light Sword, directly lifting off its fifth seal
Following the lifting of the seal, the Golden Light Sword’s fifth technique had also entered Qingfeng’s brain.
Qingfeng Li was now in possession of one more sword technique, Sky-Splitting Golden Light. It was the fifth sword technique of the Golden Light Sword, incredibly powerful, and one strike of this technique could split the heavens.
Qingfeng Li rehearsed the fifth technique of the Golden Light Sword in his head as he battled Ta Tie.
Sky-splitting Golden Light required the combination of his sword technique and sword intent. With an immensely powerful sword energy, the technique could split the skies. And with the use of both sword energy and spatial powers, it was capable of defeating his opponents in an instant.
Qingfeng Li raised his brows in disbelief. He wasn’t aware that the Golden Light Sword’s fifth technique had extended to interspatial knowledge. It was completely different from the previous four techniques.
Chapter 1251: Fifth Fist – Moving heavens and Earth
Although Sky-Splitting Golden Light was different from the previous four techniques, Qingfeng Li wasn’t worried, as he was already adept in spatial techniques. Regarding the practice of the fifth sword technique, he felt confident.
Qingfeng Li was occupied by his learning of the fifth sword technique and was continuously pushed back by Ta Tie.
At the sight of him retreating, everyone thought that Qingfeng Li was about to lose.
He wasn’t fazed by their comments, rather he was confident that he would defeat Ta Tie.
Qingfeng Li still had many tricks up his sleeve. Attacks like the Golden Flames, the Green Tower, and the Golden Calabash were all his to use.
Qingfeng Li decided not to use these cards because he wanted to master the fifth technique of the Golden Light Sword.
He was mentally going through the stances of the fifth sword over and over again, mastering the technique completely.
He was indeed very talented, mastering the fifth sword technique after only a short moment.
“Sky-Splitting Golden Light!” Qingfeng Li roared as he struck out the Golden Light Sword, unleashing the freshly learned fifth sword.
Suddenly a ray of sword light flew from the skies, slicing through the atmosphere and creating a huge gash.
Ka-cha!
With a loud booming sound, Ta Tie’s Meteor Stone Axe was split in half, falling to the ground.
“What?! Your sword light broke my ax?” Ta Tie was completely shocked, his face turning pale.
Ta Tie’s axe was no ordinary weapon. It was made from a combination of Meteorite and Black Crystal Steel.
These two materials were both extremely rare and precious. Ever since he crafted the meteor ax, Ta Tie had been invincible, defeating countless opponents.
But now, the ax was broken apart.
Qingfeng Li looked delighted. He was also surprised by his attack power.
The fifth sword was too powerful. Not only did it split open heaven and earth, it even broke apart the famous Meterorite Axe.
Taking advantage of Ta Tie’s hesitation, Qingfeng Li launched himself off the ground and arrived in front of Ta Tie instantly.
Qingfeng Li struck forward with his Golden Light Sword, directly stabbing into Ta Tie’s heart.
Klang!
With a huge sound, an image of a pangolin erupted from Ta Tie’s body, blocking off Qingfeng Li’s attack.
“Hahahaha, kid, I have on me a pangolin. It’s a treasure armor. There is no way for you to break my defense!” Ta Tie laughed arrogantly, his eyes full of contempt.
Pangolin?
Qingfeng Li was caught off guard by the name. He was familiar with this demonic beast. It was an advanced level demonic beast of the Spirit King Realm, famous for its defensive abilities.
The skin of a pangolin was extremely thick, tough, and hard.
An armor created from a pangolin possessed an incredibly high defensive power and was impenetrable by normal knives and swords.
“Kill!” With a loud roar, Qingfeng Li attacked Ta Tie once more, but to no avail. The attack was once again blocked by the pangolin
Qingfeng Li frowned in irritation. The pangolin’s defensive power was too strong. With his current attack power, Qingfeng Li just couldn’t break through its defense.
Unless of course, he lifted off all the seals on the Golden Light Sword, but that was impossible since he wasn’t strong enough yet.
“Ta Tie, you think that I can’t defeat you simply because you put on a pangolin armor?” Qingfeng Li laughed coldly, his eyes cold.
Qingfeng Li put away the Golden Light Sword. Since it was currently useless, he decided to try other attacks.
Pangolins were known for its defensive abilities, so Qingfeng Li wanted to break through to test how strong he was.
“Strangle Hell Fist.” Qingfeng Li swung out his right hand, conjuring out a giant mass of vital essence. The attack tore through the air, shaking the skies, hitting Ta Tie ruthlessly, and creating a loud bang.
Deng Deng Deng Deng!!!!
Ta Tie took a few steps back. His face was pale, but he didn’t fall.
“Your attack is not bad, but it will never penetrate my pangolin,” Ta Tie said arrogantly, sneering.
“Oh yeah? Let’s try again. Fourth Fist Breaks Firmament!” Qingfeng Li directly unleashed the fourth fist of the Strangle Hell Fist.
Qingfeng Li condensed his vital essence into a gigantic hundred-meter sized fist, and smashed down on Ta Tie’s body with an unrivaled force.
Ta Tie was forced back even farther this time, stepping back more than a dozen steps.
The pangolin was dented this time, but it still managed to defend against Qingfeng Li’s attack.
Qingfeng Li furrowed his brows in surprise.
The fourth punch was an extremely powerful attack. Normally, he would have already beaten his opponent to a pulp with just this one punch.
But now, this powerful attack was stopped by the pangolin skin.
The defensive power of the pangolin was indeed impressive. No wonder it was known as the demonic beast with the number one innate defense.
Qingfeng Li furrowed his brows and swung out his fists once more, punching Ta Tie relentlessly. His attacks were only strong enough to dent the pangolin but were too weak to kill Ta Tie.
Suddenly, a lightbulb went off in his head. He had already reached the fifth level of the Spirit King Realm. Why not practice an even more powerful technique?
The Strangle Hell Fist had many techniques and Qingfeng Li had only mastered four. He could now learn the fifth fist.
At this thought, Qingfeng Li felt a sense of joy. He began to search for Strangle Hell Fist’s fifth fist, condensing his vital essence.
The vital essence in his body became massive, containing unrivaled power. The Heavenly Immortal Chant had brought him an unending steady stream of strength.
Qingfeng Li focused his vital essence and began to condense the fifth fist.
The name of the fifth fist was Moving Heavens and Earth. One strike and it would turn the earth upside down. It also had the ability to stop time, but only for a second.
Qingfeng Li had just begun to focus his vital essence, but it disappeared before he could condense a fist.
The fifth fist was too difficult. Qingfeng Li had just learned it and had already failed.
But he wasn’t discouraged, as he began to condense a fist once again. However, the fist didn’t form; Qingfeng Li failed again.
“Kid, did you use up all your vital essence? Why are you so weak?” Ta Tie laughed coldly as watched Qingfeng Li with mocking eyes.
Qingfeng Li wasn’t bothered by Ta Tie. He continued to attempt to condense a fist.
The fifth fist of the Strangle Hell Fist required a deep understanding of spatial theories, so it was naturally very difficult to master.
Qingfeng Li had failed twice, but learning from his mistakes, he began to combine his fist techniques with the spatial knowledge that he had previously understood.
Space was one of the most mysterious concepts of all time. There was one-dimensional space, two-dimensional space, three-dimensional space, and so on and so forth. Normally, people only existed in the three-dimensional space, which was up and down, left and right.
Chapter 1252: Black Puppy’s Tracks
All of Qingfeng Li’s spatial knowledge was taught to him by Dark Night Emperor. He had already learned about it before, so it wasn’t too difficult for him to combine his spatial knowledge with his fist technique.
As he battled Ta Tie, he continued to try to form the fist, trying his hardest to master the fifth fist of the Strangle Hell Fist.
With the help of his spatial knowledge, Qingfeng Li was learning very quickly, mastering the fifth fist after only a short while.
“Fifth Fist – Moving Heavens and Earth.” With a loud roar, Qingfeng Li unleashed the fifth fist.
There was a moment of silence in space. Ta Tie stood there, motionless.
Qingfeng Li’s fist came at him as if it had appeared out of nowhere, smashing onto his body instantly.
Ka-cha!
The pangolin armor on Ta Tie was split in half, disappearing into nothingness.
The fifth fist of the Strangle Hell Fist was indeed powerful. One punch and the pangolin was broken.
Puh!
Ta Tie’s pangolin armor shattered. He coughed up a gush of blood and was heavily wounded.
“What is this fist technique? How did it stop me for a whole entire second?!” Ta Tie was stunned, his eyes full of shock. He never imagined that his pangolin would break.
“I’ve already told you early on. You only have a turtle shell protecting your body. I can shatter it whenever I want to,” Qingfeng Li said arrogantly, laughing coldly.
The power of the Strangle Hell Fist increased along with Qingfeng Li’s abilities, becoming more and more powerful. Even with the defensive abilities of the pangolin, Ta Tie was no match for it. The Strangle Hell Fist could even be improved to the Immortal realm.
Bang!
With another swing of his fist, Qingfeng Li unleashed the fifth attack again, striking Ta Tie ruthlessly, and punching a hole through his heart.
Pu-tong!
With a loud drop, Ta Tie’s massive body fell towards the ground, lifeless.
Ta Tie, a master at the eighth level of the Spirit King Realm, the sect master of the Axe Sect was dead.
The crowd was shocked by this scene. They couldn’t fathom that the mighty Ta Tie had actually died. His corpse looked miserable, with a gaping hole in his heart.
Qingfeng Li ignored Ta Tie’s dead body, turning his own towards Void Monk.
Void Monk was currently retreating from Linger Yao’s attacks. Even with the Demon-suppressing Bowl in his hand, he wasn’t strong enough to fight her.
Void Monk glanced towards Qingfeng Li and said, “By killing Ta Tie, you are now siding with the demonic woman.”
Qingfeng Li pursed his lips and said, “It’s none of your business who I side with.”
Qingfeng Li was quick with his words, shutting the Void Monk down instantly, leaving him speechless.
“Watch me teach you a lesson today,” Linger Yao laughed coldly and said.
She unleashed a powerful energy, smashing out her palm, striking Void Monk, leaving him coughing up blood.
“Demonic woman, you’ve won today. Just you wait, I will find helpers and finish you then.” Void Monk left Linger Yao with threatening words as he torpedoed himself into the air and ran away.
At the sight of Void Monk escaping, the surrounding people were all dumbfounded. Just a moment ago the man had acted all arrogant, talking about how he would defeat Linger Yao. But he had run away in the next second.
Seeing the Void Monk escape, the self-cultivators nearby all ran for their lives as well. As far as they’re concerned, Linger Yao was the number one master in all of Demonic Dao, extremely evil. They didn’t want to die by her hands.
Qingfeng Li knew that not all people of the Demonic Dao were bad, just like not all people of the Orthodox Dao were good. Some cultivators from the Orthodox Dao could kill without blinking.
“You’re not bad,” Linger Yao praised Qingfeng Li.
Linger Yao was very familiar with Ta Tie’s capabilities, as he was a master of the eight level Spirit King Realm and was equipped with a pangolin armor. Even a master of the ninth level of the Spirit King Realm wouldn’t be able to defeat him.
However, Qingfeng Li had achieved the impossible. He had killed Ta Tie. His attack power and combat skills were much stronger than what he had shown, and it was just unjustifiable by logic.
Qingfeng Li smiled politely, remaining silent. He knew that he had practiced many immortal level techniques. His attack power was therefore very strong, capable of killing across realms. Ta Tie’s death was inevitable, to say the least.
“Linger Yao, thank you again for saving my life. I’m going to leave now. Goodbye.” Qingfeng Li waved towards Linger Yao and turned to leave.
As he walked out, Qingfeng Li looked up at the sun and began to head north.
The north was where the Kunlun Mountain Hell was located. The area was covered by a monstrous devilish energy that spanned across heavens and earth, piercing the atmosphere, surrounding the whole entire world in a black devilish gas, as if it was the birthplace of doomsday.
After a short while, Qingfeng Li was greeted by a crowd of self-cultivators. They were all huddled in a discussion.
Qingfeng Li decided to ignore them. He needed to quickly find Black Puppy and the rest of the Wolf Fang Team.
But the words of one self-cultivator caught Qingfeng Li’s attention.
The short-haired man said, “I just saw a Black Puppy. It was so f*cking fast and had a bone in its mouth.”
“A black puppy?”
Qingfeng Li was delighted. He immediately flew towards the short-haired self-cultivator, arriving before him instantly.
“Tell me, where did you see the black puppy?” Qingfeng Li asked anxiously.
The short-haired self-cultivator glanced towards Qingfeng Li and said, “Who are you? Why should I tell you?”
Qingfeng Li didn’t bother to explain. He pulled out the Golden Light Sword and placed it on the man’s neck. He said coldly, “Hurry up and tell me the whereabouts of Black Puppy, or else I will kill you.”
Sensing Qingfeng Li’s murderous intent, the short-haired self-cultivator tensed up in fear.
“Don’t kill me. I’ll tell you. That black puppy was 10 kilometers north from here. Moments ago, it had just ran out from a cave,” the short-haired self-cultivator hurriedly explained.
Qingfeng Li nodded at the information. He launched himself into the air and dashed towards the location.
Although there were more than 10,000 self-cultivators active in the forbidden district, Qingfeng Li knew that he was the only one who had brought a black puppy.
At this point, in a distance of 10 kilometers to the north, Black Puppy was besieged by a group of self-cultivators. They were all gazing intensely at the bone in the puppy’s mouth, their eyes flashing cold.
“Little bastard, hand over the bone, or else I’m going to beat you up,” Feitian Yang of the Flying Beast Sect sneered.
Next to him stood Yunshi Zhang from the Meteorite Saber Sect, Suqin Liu from the Piano King Sect, the Princess of the Southern Sea Dragon Palace, the Prince of the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace and some others.
Black Puppy scrunched up its nose and cursed, “This bone belongs to this master dog, why should I hand it over to you? Get the hell out of here.”
“Everyone, attack together! Kill that black puppy and get that bone!” Feitian Yang yelled as he walked forward.
