Chapter 1274: There Goes Linger Yao
Qingfeng Li just realized that it wasn’t an easy thing to comprehend the Fire Emperor Sutra because it required a high cultivation base as well as a large amount of spirit energy.
Besides controlling the flame as well as enduring the high temperature, their manipulation of the spirit energy had to be perfect as well.
Qingfeng Li had extremely strong spirit energy because the Spiritual Millstone deep in his head had been functioning the whole time to temper his spirit energy.
He kept the Golden Flame under control with his spirit energy and separated it in half with his middle finger and index finger.
The flames danced on and on. They started small but were always unequally sized.
Qingfeng Li had failed at this many times, but, after practicing, he got much better at controlling the flames with his spirit energy. He was able to divide the flames into two equal halves.
His index finger and middle finger suddenly reached out, shooting two streams of golden flames onto the ground ahead of him.
Boom! Boom!
A giant hole appeared on the ground at the noise and black smoke poured out from the hole.
The ground was made of very hard diamond rock along with meteorite, but it was melted immediately by the Golden Flame.
Qingfeng Li could only use the Golden Flame twice a day before since he wasn’t able to control it. It consumed too much spirit energy, but now, he separated the Gloden Flames into two very small parts with immense power.
Boom!
Qingfeng Li raised his right palm again, commanding two tiny flames to dance in the air. However, his target was the two stone pillars far away instead of the ground this time. The flames directly penetrated two black holes into the pillars.
He needed to control the direction of the flames as well, when utilizing them. He could make use of it just like swords now by attacking in different directions, with different angles at different places.
After casting the two flames, Qingfeng Li took the Fire Emperor Sutra out again to study the method of channeling the flames.
This time, he took out three fingers-one more than just now.
With the experience from before and the method from the sutra, he shot out three rays of flames with his three fingers. However, the color and size of the flames were a bit different from each other.
Qingfeng Li wasn’t discouraged by that and kept practicing. He made sure that his spirit energy was precisely taking full control of the flames and finally got the three flames to the same size.
He felt a bit fatigued and sensed a headache coming on when he was going to try separating out the fourth flame. He knew it was due to the large amount of spirit energy that he had already consumed.
It was extremely difficult to control the Golden Flame with spirit energy because it had an unusually high temperature of 5500 degrees.
Qingfeng Li had reached his limit when he shot out the three flames. In order to work with more flames, he needed to improve his spirit energy and make it stronger.
Qingfeng Li took some elixirs out of his interspatial ring, placing them into his mouth and starting to cultivate. He had gotten these from the self-cultivators he had killed before.
His spirit energy had fully recovered in a little while. He stood up, glimpsed at the Fire Emperor Sutra and then put it back inside the interspatial ring.
There were nine levels of the Fire Emperor Sutra and Qingfeng Li had only comprehended a small part of the first level. There was a lot more to learn in the future.
In the later levels of the Fire Emperor Sutra, flames can be formed into shapes of demonic beasts or weapons for attacks. However, it would take much more high-quality spirit energy, so it was out of the question for now.
Qingfeng Li turned to the other treasure he had in his hand – a red flame-like sword. It was about two fingers wide and three inches long, glowing with a faint red light.
There was a mars pattern engraved on the surface of the sword, enshrouding it in an ancient, dry aura.
Qingfeng Li knew that it was an emperor level spiritual device which was even stronger than his Red Fiery Sword. It was even as strong as the Golden Light Sword, which was the sword that once belonged to Demonic Peacock Empress.
“Fire Emperor Sword. This is the Fire Emperor Sword.” Dark Night Emperor’s voice echoed in Qingfeng Li’s head.
Dark Night Emperor’s soul had been stored inthe Red Fiery Sword, and it flew out of it all of a sudden.
The Red Fiery Sword had been damaged so it couldn’t store his soul for muchlonger. There wasn’t any powerful vital essence for him to absorb in it as well.
Dark Night Emperor had tried to get into the Golden Light Sword, but, due to the Demonic Peacock Empress’s seal, he could not enter.
Now that Qingfeng Li had obtained the Fire Emperor Sword, Dark Night Emperor certainly wanted to get in there. The enormous vital essence inside of the Fire Emperor Sword could accommodate what was left of his soul and offer it some good rest.
“Senior, your soul may enter now,” Qingfeng Li told Dark Night Emperor.
He nodded and then glimpsed at Qingfeng Li with praise. He was aware of everything that was going on even though he was inside the Red Fiery Sword.
Qingfeng Li found the treasure in the Spirit Emperor Palace and got the Spirit Emperor’s legacy. Dark Night Emperor was satisfied with it.
Dark Night Emperor was both Qingfeng Li’s mentor and good friend. He was the one who guided Qingfeng Li into the world of self-cultivation and had witnessed him improving little by little and becoming an undefeatable genius.
Shoo!
Dark Night Emperor’s body disappeared into a ray of black light and entered the Fire Emperor Sword.
Qingfeng Li took a look at Fire Emperor Sword and did not refine it. His vital essence was not enough to do that right now.
He could only make use of it as an emperor level spiritual device and refine it when his vital essence improves.
Qingfeng Li took a last look at the red coffin. He left after three bows at the coffin.
At this moment. Linger Yao had opened up the black coffin in the cave and walked out. She was wearing a white dress.
Black Puppy, Flower Fairy, and Xianzhi Qin all appeared to be glad to see Linger Yao coming out.
They had just seen her being sucked into the black coffin by its defensive array formation and only knew that she had disappeared with Qingfeng Li.
“Where is Qingfeng Li, Linger Yao? Is he ok?” Flower Fairy’s charming face looked worried and she asked.
Chapter 1275: Heading to Hell under the Kunlun Mountains
Linger Yao ignored Flower Fairy’s question and looked ahead. She pointed at the ground with her tiptoe, turned herself into a gust of wind, and disappeared from the entrance of the cave.
“Why didn’t Linger Yao answer my question?” Flower Fairy frowned with confusion, seeing her leaving.
It was not only Flower Fairy, Black Puppy and Xianzhi Qin were also confused by Linger Yao’s behavior. They all sensed something off about her.
Linger Yao had gotten really close with them not long ago, and she also helped Qingfeng defeat the Black Wind Duo Demons.
However, she did not even bother to look at them after getting out of the coffin, acting as if they didn’t exist. This really upset them.
Flower Fairy asked Black Puppy, “Puppy, Qingfeng should be all right since Linger Yao is okay, right?”
Black Puppy had no idea. “How would I know?”
Flower Fairy pouted as she stepped beside the black coffin. She fiddled with the tombstone engraving to see if she could open it up.
But it was all in vain and the coffin stayed completely still.
It was strange that only Qingfeng Li and Linger Yao were able to open up the black coffin. No one else was capable of doing that.
In fact, if Black Puppy had awakened its memory, it would have been able to open the coffin as well.
But it had only awakened a part of his memory from its previous life, with a large portion still unawakened, so it did not know the method of opening up the black coffin.
When they were mulling over what to do next, the black coffin suddenly raised straight into the air.
A ray of white right shot out from the hole under the coffin and Qingfeng’s body flew out from the ray.
“You are back, Big Brother Li!” Flower Fairy said happily with excitement.
She was just anxious that something bad had happened to Qingfeng, so she was excited to see him flying out.
Qingfeng Li smiled lightly. “I’m all right. Did you see Linger Yao?”
Flower Fairy twitched her mouth in dissatisfaction, “That woman is so arrogant! She didn’t even pay any attention to me when I asked her about you. She just flew out and left.”
Qingfeng Li laughed in embarrassment since he sure knew the reason why Linger Yao ignored these people.
It was all because of what he had just done. It was actually nice of her to have not killed him.
Black Puppy waggled his tail and walked to Qingfeng Li’s side. He rubbed against Qingfeng’s pants and asked, “You have gotten the Spirit Emperor’s legacy?”
Qingfeng Li nodded, “Yes, I got it. Let’s get out of here.”
He then led the way without wasting any time, knowing his next destination was Hell.
Only the Hell under the Kunlun Mountains had Saint-Perishing Fruits and only those fruits could wake up his baby.
Black Puppy’s eyes shone with excitement. It knew that the Spirit Emperor’s legacy signified immense combat power.
Getting the Spirit Emperor’s legacy meant that Qingfeng Li’s combat power was already no weaker than the masters of the Spirit Emperor Realm, giving them enough power to protect themselves in the Kunlun Mountains.
Qingfeng Li ran into someone outside the cave. It was none other but the Old Monster of the North Sea.
“What did you get from there, Qingfeng Li? Can I take a look?” he blocked Qingfeng Li’s way and asked. The Old Monster ofthe North Sea knew that Qingfeng Li was a master of array formations, so he must have gotten something in the cave.
Qingfeng Li ignored him and kept walking. The Old Monster of the North Sea placed his body in front of Qingfeng Li to stop him from leaving.
Qingfeng Li did not want to waste his Golden Flame on Old Monster of North Sea so he did not take any action.
“You are on, puppy,” Qingfeng Li smiled lightly and said to Black Puppy.
The Old Monster of the North Sea’s eyes shone with a cold ray. He did not believe that Qingfeng Li was arrogant enough to actually order a dog toi get rid of him. This was absolutely unacceptable.
Black Puppy looked up into the sky with a 360 degree motion and reached out its palm all of a sudden, turning it into a giant claw capable of covering the sky.
The giant claw slapped the Old Monster of the North Sea far away with its immense power. He spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Too weak, it’s not even challenging.” Black puppy shook its head with disdain.
Black Puppy had the combat power of a half-step Spirit Emperor, so no one under the level of a Spirit Emperor Realm Master would be able to defeat him.
Qingfeng Li left with everyone without even paying any attention to the injured Old Monster of the North Sea.
The Old Monster of the North Sea looked gloomy when he saw Qingfeng Li leaving. He did not follow them because he knew that would only bring him more embarrassment. He was no match for them.
Qingfeng Li covered a couple of miles in a short time with a very fast speed. Their next destination was Hell.
He saw about a few thousand self-cultivators on the way, and they were all heading towards Hell.
Qingfeng Li frowned with a trace of confusion in his eyes.
As a matter of fact, the Hell under the Kunlun Mountains was extremely dangerous, and no one had successfully survived there. Why were those self-cultivators all rushing towards there?
Qingfeng Li held up his hand and stopped a long-haired self-cultivator, “Pretty girl, why are you going to Hell? Shouldn’t you be looking for other treasures?”
The pretty girl with long hair frowned because she did not plan to talk to Qingfeng Li originally. But she was surprised when she saw his face and recognized him as he was the one and only Qingfeng Li of the Huaxia’s younger generation of self-cultivators.
“Let me tell you. There is an immortal sutra that appeared near Kunlun Mountain Hell. Everyone is going that way because they all want it,” the long-haired beautiful girl smiled lightly and told Qingfeng Li.
He looked at the girl and found her a little familiar, “Which sect are you from?”
She continued smiling. “I am from the Bamboo King Sect, same as my senior sister Xianxian Mu. But we got separated.”
Qingfeng Li suddenly realized the reason why the pretty girl was telling him all this; it was because she was a member of Bamboo King Sect.
Qingfeng Li thanked the long-haired girl and quickly walked towardsHell with everyone. That was his ultimate destination.
Chapter 1276: The Massacre
Qingfeng Li looked up and noticed the shadows that were still fighting in the sky above the Kunlun Mountains.
It was an ancient battle with ancient armor and weapons. The shadow of the demons kept fighting in the sky, throwing time and space into chaos.
Qingfeng Li’s subconscious told him that the demonic plantoms were not truly dead. They might have only been suppressed underneath the Kunlun Mountains in Hell, because he was able to sense a trembling of the souls locked up underground.
Qingfeng Li sensed an unusualness with the appearance of the immortal sutra here at this time.
Speaking of immortal sutras, they are cultivation techniques for immortals. Any ordinary being wouldn’t even have the luck of seeing one, not to mention cultivating it. Could it be a demon trying to use it as a bait since it was near the entrance of Hell?
Qingfeng Li proceeded closer and closer to Hell and arrived at it after some time.
Suddenly, Qingfeng Li frowned as he saw a group of people chasing after a woman in front of them.
The woman had disheveled hair and her clothes were ripped and covered in blood. She looked completely miserable.
The woman had her back facing Qingfeng Li so he couldn’t see what her face looked like.
But he found the figure of the woman’s back a little familiar. She must be someone he was acquainted with.
Qingfeng Li was suddenly stunned when he realized that this woman was none other but Alice.
Someone was trying to kill Alice! They are seeking their deaths! Qingfeng Li’s face became gloomy as he felt the urge to kill.
Shoo!
His body turned into a black flash and sprung ahead.
At this moment, Alice was running with an elixir in her arms. There were many people chasing after her.
They were all in black clothes, emitting a devious scent. Upon further inspection, Qingfeng realized that they were from the Wicked-Imperial Sect.
The Wicked-Imperial Sect was a famous emperor level sect in the world of self-cultivation. It was a very strong force, as one of the top unorthodox sects of Huaxia. Every time this sect stomped their feet, the entire world of cultivation would experience a giant earthquake, with a large number of people being killed.
“Hand over the elixir, pretty girl. Or I will kill you,” one of the leading young men in the back shouted jokingly.
The young man along with 20 other disciples had been chasing after Alice for a long time already.
Those people could have caught up with her and killed her, but they also wanted to tease her, so they only injured her and kept chasing after her like a pack of starving wolves after a helpless rabbit. They weren’t in a rush to kill her because they were enjoying the chase.
Alice said coldly with the elixir in her hands, “I picked it up. How contemptible of you Wicked-Imperial Sect to covet my property.”
The young man in black laughed coldly, “So what if it is your treasure? I will not only take the elixir today, but I will also take you!”
“Everyone, I want her alive!” he waved as he said to the disciples.
“Yes, Young Lord Yang Xie,” said the strong unorthodox self-cultivators loudly.
They surrounded Alice, trying to catch her.
Shoo!
The short-haired disciple, who was the closest to Alice, reached out his right hand to grab her.
Alice was badly injured just now so she wasn’t able to defend against their attack. She could only see the disciple’s palm coming towards her.
Splash!
The next second, the short-haired disciple’s palm was cut through by a rock with a loud noise. A hole appeared in his palm and blood leaked out.
The pale disciple screamed as he turned back and shouted, “Who sneak attacked me?”
“Don’t overestimate yourself and get out of here. Or I will finish you.” Qingfeng Li’s voice traveled from afar. He flew immediately to where Alice was as if he was a black flash.
“What are you doing here, Boss?” Alice was surprised to see Qingfeng Li.
He smiled. “Of course I am here to save you. Otherwise, those bastards are going to take you away.”
“Who are you calling bastards, son? Do you still want to live?” the short-haired disciple looked at Qingfeng Li and said coldly.
Qingfeng Li swung out his Golden Light Sword and chopped the disciple’s head off with one brandish. His head fell onto the ground as blood splashing out.
“Bastard, do you not want to live any longer? How dare you kill a member of our Wicked-Imperial Sect?” Yang Xie looked at Qingfeng Li, his eyes shining with a cold light.
Qingfeng Li smiled lightly and said in a cold voice, “Yup, so what if I did? Who are you anyways?”
“I am the young lord of the Wicked-Imperial Sect, Yang Xie. Kneel down and beg for my forgiveness or I shall kill you.” He looked at Qingfeng Li arrogantly, as if he was regarding an ant.
In Yang Xie’s opinion, the Wicked-Imperial Sect was the top sect in the world of self-cultivation and ordinary people dared not to go against them. This weak-looking young man who just appeared will definitely fall to his knees in terror after realizing who they were.
“What the hell is Wicked-Imperial Sect? And who the hell are you?” Qingfeng Li sneered and cursed.
The surrounding self-cultivators were all astonished by Qingfeng Li’s words, thinking he was surely out of his mind to be so rude to the young lord of Wicked-Imperial Sect.
“Son, you are digging your own grave! You guys go ahead and kill him,” Yang Xie pointed at Qingfeng Li and commanded his followers.
“Yes!” The self-cultivators began striking out with their palms, fists, and claws at Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li couldn’t care less. He channeled his vital essence and drew a circle with his Golden Light Sword.
The enormous circle was twirling in a 360 degree as it ripped through the air and space. It took the shape of a mountain and, with immense sword energy, cut open all the disciples’ necks.
Splash, splash, splash…
About 20 disciples fell to the ground covering their necks in great horror. Blood splashed everywhere.
Truth was, those were all very powerful genius disciples of the Wicked-Imperial Sect. Each of them had top-class talent and super strong combat abilities.
Some of them were masters of the heavenly realm and others were masters of the Spirit King Realm. But none of them was Qingfeng Li’s match. His one move sent them all to death.
The surrounding people were all stunned to dropping their jaws. Qingfeng Li’s power was unexpectedly strong.
The shocking massacre of the Wicked-Imperial Sect disciples by Qingfeng Li, resulted in Yang Xie being the only one left alive.
Chapter 1277: Killing Yang Xie
Yang Xie’s face was gloomy when he saw all his disciples were killed. His eyes shone with a cold light and a flame of anger was set off in his heart.
“I am going to kill you.” Yang Xie looked at Qingfeng Li with murderous intentions.
He was furious that Qingfeng had massacred his people.
“Son, how dare you kill the members of my Wicked-Imperial Sect? Are you seeking death?” Yang Xier looked at Qingfeng Li gloomily, as if he was looking at someone who was already dead.
“I think it’s you who is seeking death. You have two options: to kneel and beg for forgiveness or to die,” Qingfeng Li said in a cold voice.
Yang Xie surely wouldn’t comply with Qingfeng’s first demand, because he was the young lord of the Wicked-Imperial Sect, and his actions represented his sect.
He had a high position in the unorthodox world; he had always been the one who bullied and dominated others, not the other way around.
Yang Xie whipped out his sword and drew an arc in the air. It flew towards Qingfeng Li with sharp sword energy.
Qingfeng Li was reluctant to show any weakness. He kept calm, not paying much attention to Yang Xie’s attack.
“Sword Energy Mountains and Rivers.” Qingfeng Li yelled and whipped out his Golden Light Sword.
Golden sword energy formed a giant shadow of mountains and river. It collided onto the young lord’s sword and broke it into halves, causing Yang Xie to take a few steps back.
Although Yang Xie was a level nine Spirit King Realm Master, a level higher than Qingfeng Li, he was no match for Qingfeng at all. Qingfeng’s one move had completely defeated him.
Yang Xie stretched out his right hand and took out a talisman from his chest pocket, which contained very strong power.
He lit the talisman up and it transformed into a red flame with an extremely high temperature, charging straight at Qingfeng Li.
Seeing him calling out a talisman, Qingfeng Li laughed arrogantly.
“This dumb*ss needs to look in the mirror before attacking me with a flame talisman.”
Yang Xie had no idea how strong Qingfeng Li’s body was. It could endure flames of devastatingly high temperatures. Even a few thousands of degrees will cause no harm to his body, not to mention this pitiful flame talisman.
Qingfeng Li grasped the flame with his right hand to everyone’s astonishment. He pinched it and it immediately broke into small pieces and disappeared.
“How is this possible? How can you touch the thousands-degree talisman with your bare hand?” being shocked, Yang Xie asked surprisingly.
He was already startled by the fact that Qingfeng Li was capable of defeating him with one chop of a sword. The grabbing of the flame with his bare hand put Yang Xie into more shock.
The surrounding people were also shocked with their mouths open. They had never seen any human catching an extremely high-temperature flame with their bare hand. He must be a demon.
Qingfeng Li pointed the ground with his toe and launched himself into the air, instantly landing beside Yang Xie.
He whipped his Golden Light Sword at Yang Xie’s throat with sharp sword energy, immediately cutting through his throat
Splash!
A hole appeared on Yang Xie’s throat with a splash of warm blood.
“My dad will never let you live…” he glimpsed at Qingfeng Li with resentment. Then his eyes faded as his breath weakened. Yang Xie fell hard onto the ground and died.
Seeing Yang Xie dead, the surrounding people started chatting.
“Who is this reckless fellow? He killed Yang Xie!”
“I recognize him. He is the super-powerful Qingfeng Li we’ve been hearing about lately.”
“So what? Qingfeng Li is powerful? Yang Xie is the young lord of the Wicked-Imperial Sect and the son of a half-step Spirit Emperor Realm master. He is in deep trouble and will definitely be killed.”
They were so astonished, as if they had just seen the most unbelievable thing.
Qingfeng Li did not pay any attention to their chatting nor their stares.
Yang Xie had already become Qingfeng Li’s enemy the second he started chasing after Alice. That was his death sentence.
So he killed Yang Xie, what could they do about it? If the lord of the Wicked-Imperial Sect were to come to him, he wouldn’t mind finishing him up with the Golden Flame.
He went over to Yang Xie and searched through his pockets. He soon found the Wicked-Imperial Technique and a bottle of an elixir.
It was a level nine King tier elixir and there were also several king level vitality stones. They were all very rare treasures.
What a fat lamb! Qingfeng Li laughed in cheerfulness.
Strictly speaking, Qingfeng Li was a cultivator not belonging to any specific sect, which meant he had no resources.
Although his techniques were strong and were all on immortal levels, he had neither vitality stones nor elixirs. Only self-cultivators from important sects or powers would have access to vaults of these things.
Qingfeng Li stored all the treasures in his interspatial ring and left.
He walked over to Alice and stretched out his palm to transfer some of his vital essence into her body to help heal her wounds.
“Where is the Wolf Fang Team, Alice?” Qingfeng Li asked.
Alice told him, “We were being chased by the people from Wicked-Imperial Sect and so we split up, deciding to meet at the entrance to Hell.”
Qingfeng Li frowned, “Hell is extremely dangerous. Why would you make that your rendezvous spot?”
Alice smiled lightly and explained, “We know that you would be heading there so we made it the meet-up spot to see you.”
Qingfeng Li nodded in understanding. All his friends knew that his destination was the Hell under the Kunlun Mountains.
At this moment, Black Puppy, Flower Fairy, and Xianzhi Qin walked over as well.
“Qingfeng Li, if we hurry towards Hell right now, we might be able to see Sky-Devouring Snake,” Black Puppy wiggled his tail and said.
Although they constantly fought, Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake were actually very close.
“Yes, let’s go.” Qingfeng Li waved his hand and led everyone towards Hell.
The surrounding people backed up to clear a path for Qingfeng Li.
They were looking at Qingfeng Li in great terror. He seemed like a devil to them since he had just killed the young lord and a dozen disciples of the Wicked-Imperial Sect. Qingfeng Li seemed more wicked to them than the Wicked-Imperial Sect itself.
Their way to Hell was unobstructed, and they got closer and closer to the destination.
Qingfeng Li looked up into the sky above Hell. He could clearly feel the phantoms still fighting up there, ripping apart time and space.
Chapter 1278: Battling Wicked-Imperial Sect
Qingfeng arrived at the gate to Hell and found all the self-cultivators standing afar. They wanted to get the immortal sutra but did not want to lose their lives.
He noticed his steps becoming heavier and heavier as if he was carrying a 1000-kilogram stone on his back.
Hell was definitely incredibly horrific. Every single step Qingfeng Li took was becoming more and more difficult. The same went for the people with him. They were walking with difficulty like they were carrying humongous stones as well, and the ground sank as their feet stepped on it.
Everyone was becoming pale due to the intensive consumption of their vital essence.
“Let’s stop and take a break.” Qingfeng Li waved his hand.
Flower Fairy was out of breath, “This is so tiring. Why is the pressure so strong here?”
Black Puppy said in front, “We are fairly close to the entrance, and there are phantoms of demons and immortals. They are exerting an oppressive aura on the area.”
Qingfeng Li looked up and saw the fighting phantoms in the sky. He knew, however, that those fights were not actually happening right now, but were projections from the ancient era.
Everything they were seeing had already happened thousands of years ago. They were only reflected through the entrance of the Hell under the Kunlun Mountains.
Qingfeng Li was surprised at how strong those phantoms were. As the destined person, he could sense their power way better than other people.
Suddenly, Qingfeng Li narrowed his eyes and saw Daoist and Sky-Devouring Snake being chased not far away.
They were being chased by people from the Wicked-Imperial Sect, led by a grey-haired old man in a grey robe. That was the senior elder of the Wicked-Imperial Sect.
“How dare you bastards oppose our Wicked-Imperial Sect. Today is the day you die.” His gloomy eyes were filled with killing intent as he looked at them.
Sky-Devouring Snake cursed in disdain, “Wicked-Imperial Sect, who the hell are you to dare to chase after us?!”
“You are playing with fire!” the old man in grey shouted as he reached out his right palm. It turned into a giant black palm as wide as 300 meters and slapped towards Sky-Devouring Snake.
Sky-Devouring Snake did not show any weakness. It wiggled its tail as it turned into a Heavenly Giant Snake and swung it.
The snake tail smacked into the palm, blasting out a loud noise.
Their bodies both backed up since neither of them could defeat the other. They were both half-step Spirit Emperor Realm masters.
At this time, two other old men walked out to the side of the grey-robed old man. They were the Junior Elder and the Third Elder of the Wicked-Imperial Sect, and they also charged at Sky-Devouring Snake at the same time.
Ziyue Jiang took out her sword with a gloomy face, and she slashed it at the Junior Elder. However, she wasn’t as strong as him and was sent flying by a slap, coughing up a mouthful of blood.
Ziyue Jiang was the princess of a high-tier planet. Although she was strong, she was only a master of the eighth level of the Spirit King Realm.
She was considered a powerful master in the younger generation, but she was no match for the older generation masters.
The other members of the Wolf Fang Team weren’t as strong as the two elders either. They were all sent flying by attacks and fell back onto the ground.
Sky-Devouring Snake wanted to rescue them, but the Junior Elder was in its way.
Qingfeng Li noticed that they were in danger from afar and decided to kill them all. “Damn you Wicked-Imperial Sect! You tried to kill Alice, and now you are after my other people!”
His eyes shone with murderous intention as his body flew into the air and went towards them.
Qingfeng Li came to Ziyue Jiang like a tornado, despite the phantoms’ suppression.
“You are here, Master.” Ziyue Jiang bowed to salute Qingfeng Li. She seemed delighted to see him.
Qingfeng Li smiled lightly and reached out his right hand to transfer his vital essence to her.
Qingfeng Li used to be a very skilled doctor and had recently become an alchemist as well. Hence, he cured Ziyue Jiang in just a little while.
He then went over and cured the other members the Wolf Fang Team.
“Little brat, who are you to get in our way!?” the Third Elder asked coldly with a gloomy face.
Qingfeng Li glimpsed at him, “You old baldy. Why are you still trying to pick up girls now that your hair is almost gone.”
Qingfeng Li’s rudeness surprised everyone, as no one would have imagined that he was arrogant enough to curse the third elder of the Wicked-Imperial Sect.
Their location was not far from the entrance of Hell, where thousands of self-cultivators had gathered.
Each of them was masters or elite disciples of powerful sects, and they all turned to look at Qingfeng Li.
Some of them recognized him. They were stunned, knowing his status in the world of self-cultivation.
Others who haven’t recognized him were wondering who he was.
“Son, I am going to cut off your four limbs to let you understand what it costs to offend our Wicked-Imperial Sect.” The Third Elder whipped out a long blade.
It was a weird looking black blade that shone with a devilish black light. Powerful blade energy was leaking out from this level eight King Tier spiritual device.
The third Elder flipped his right wrist and slashed the long blade forward. Then he chopped it towards Qingfeng Li with enormous power like a sharp sword.
Qingfeng Li whipped out his long sword with his right hand.
It was his most powerful sword, the Golden Light Sword. He used his Dragon’s Thousand Steps to turn the sword into a ray of fierce sword energy. It flew from the sky onto the long blade with an incredibly powerful force.
Boom!
Third Elder’s long blade was cut in halves by the Golden Light Sword with the crack sound, and it fell to the floor in two pieces.
“What? My blade is broken?” The Third Elder was reluctant to believe what had just happened.
In fact, his blade was an extremely high leveled precious weapon. No ordinary person would have been a well-matched adversary for him.
“How did that happen?” The Third Elder could see that the level of Qingfeng Li’s sword was not as high as his blade.
Qingfeng Li definitely wouldn’t answer his question, as he was about to take his life.
Qingfeng Li suddenly thrust the Golden Light Sword toward the Third Elder. The sword was fast like a golden flash aiming at his heart, piercing through instantly.
Splash!
The Third Elder’s body fell hard to the ground, and he died with his eyes open.
He would have never believed that he would die by Qingfeng Li’s hand.
Chapter 1279: Wicked-Imperial Sect Master
“Who is this guy that killed the Third Elder of the Wicked-Imperial Sect. It’s outrageous!” a long-haired self-cultivator exclaimed.
Next to him, there was someone who knew Qingfeng, and he replied, “He is Qingfeng Li, the strongest person of the younger generation in Huaxia’s World of self-cultivation.”
The surrounding people who did not know Qingfeng Li before were immersed into a discussion. They were now aware of Qingfeng Li was, and how powerful he was. For a moment, their eyes were full of shock.
“Qingfeng Li is too strong. He actually killed the Third Elder of the Wicked-Imperial Sect.”
“Hmph. Qingfeng Li is too arrogant. He is strong, but the Wicked-Imperial Sect is not weak either. Both the Senior Elder and Sect Master are half-step Spirit Emperors.”
“That’s right. Qingfeng Li will die for sure this time.”
The surrounding people were all in a discussion. As they looked at Qingfeng Li, their eyes were filled with disdain.
As a young man, Qingfeng Li had become the strongest person in the younger generation of the world of self-cultivators and was even able to kill those from the older generation of self-cultivators. Leaving a bad taste in the heart of those around him, some were envy and jealous of him.
These people were jealous of Qingfeng Li formidable strength, fantasizing how great it would be if they were just as strong.
Qingfeng Li’s hearing was good. Naturally, he heard what the surrounding people said, but he did not care.
To Qingfeng Li, he did not care about the surrounding people and what they were saying. Even if the sect master of the Wicked-Imperial Sect came, he would not care.
However, once the sect master was mentioned, he arrived. From a distance, a middle-aged devilish-looking man in a black robe was flying towards him.
This middle-aged person was in his forties, had a tall build, sinister face, and thin eyebrows. His whole body, clothed entirely in black, exuded a sinister aura.
His name was Li Xie, the sect master of the Wicked-Imperial Sect.
Li Xie recently got the news of his son’s death, so he went to investigate the cause. He learned that his son was Qingfeng Li killed from what the surrounding self-cultivators were saying.
It was perfect that Qingfeng Li was coming to Hell, the same place that he was going to. Li Xie had flown, rushing toward where Qingfeng Li was.
Li Xie recognized Qingfeng Li because he had gotten information about Qingfeng Li from the self-cultivators, and he was able to recognize Qingfeng Li with just one glance.
With one glance, Li Xie saw the dead Third Elder. His eyes glimmered with a cold light.
“Qingfeng Li, you killed my son,” Li Xie looked at Qingfeng Li and said.
Qingfeng Li nodded and said, “He tried to kill Alice. He deserved to die, so, naturally, I killed him.”
Qingfeng Li was very honorable. If it was something that he did, he would always admit to it.
Even in the face of the half-step Spirit Emperor, Li Xie, Qingfeng Li was not afraid.
“Very good, since you admitted to killing my son and that you killed the Third Elder just now, I will kill you today.” After Li Xie finished speaking, he waved his right hand. It turned into a giant palm, striking toward Qingfeng Li.
This palm was very large, so large that it covered the sun and then the entire sky.
Feeling the power of Li Xie, Qingfeng Li did not dare to be careless. He activated the Strangle Hell Body technique and prepared his Strangle Hell Fist. He channeled vital essence and condensed it into his right fist.
“Fifth Fist – Moving Heavens and Earth,” Qingfeng Li said in a deep voice, directly using the Strangle Hell Fist’s fifth technique, which contained invincible power.
Qingfeng Li released his punch, directly blowing up the air. The fist turned into a huge fist projection, the size of a small mountain. It crashed together with Li Xie’s palm, shaking the entire dimension.
Fortunately, this was Hell’s entrance on the Kunlun Mountains, so it had strong dimensional pressure. It was not far from the Immortal and Demon Phantoms’ battle, so it did not break the dimensional barrier.
If it was anywhere else, the dimension would certainly have cracked, causing black vortices to appear.
Deng Deng!
Qingfeng Li was knocked back two steps, and his body slightly shook.
Qingfeng Li just released the Strangle Hell Fist’s fifth punching technique, the most powerful attack, but do not forget his opponent was the sect master of the Wicked-Imperial Sect, someone who was at the half-step Spirit Emperor Realm.
Qingfeng Li’s was only knocked back two steps. This already showed how strong Qingfeng Li was.
“Little guy, you are not bad. You actually blocked my attack.” Li Xie’s eyes contained a touch of surprise.
As a half-step Spirit Emperor Realm strong, Li Xie was naturally aware of how powerful his attack was. The average Spirit King level cultivator would have been slapped to death. Even ninth stage Spirit Kings cannot stop his palm attack.
But right now, Qingfeng Li actually blocked Li Xie’s attack when he was only at the seventh stage of the Spirit King Realm.
The surrounding self-cultivators who saw this scene momentarily stopped breathing out of shock. Qingfeng Li’s power was out of their expectations.
Not too long ago, these people were still mocking Qingfeng Li. They thought that the moment Li Xie arrived, he would be able to kill Qingfeng Li, but, now, it seemed difficult.
“Li Xie, is this all you have?” Qingfeng Li smiled, with a look of disdain.
As for the sect master of the Wicked-Imperial sect, Qingfeng Li did not care about him at all. To put it bluntly, he even despised him.
“Little Guy, just now I used only eighty percent of my power. If you want to die, then I will help you,” Li Xie said in a cold voice.
“Wicked Imperial Fist,” Li Xie shouted in anger. His right fist suddenly firing a heavenly giant fist, with invincible strength, mercilessly aimed at Qingfeng Li.
Wicked Imperial Fist was an emperor level cultivation technique and was very powerful; one punch carried 100,000 kilograms of force. Even if there was the suppression from the phantoms’ aura, a crack was still smashed into the dimensional barrier. As one could see, it was very powerful.
Qingfeng Li eyes focused, and he did not dare to be careless. He fiercely gathered his vital essence, once again releasing his Strangle Hell Fist. It turned into a giant fist and collided with Li Xie’s attack.
Deng Deng Deng Deng! !!!
This time, Qingfeng Li was knocked back four steps. His body was faintly trembling, and his right fist was feeling slightly numb. There was even a wound on his skin. His blood splashed out, as his body was injured.
“Damn, Li Xie’s attack is too strong, and my vital essence is limited. In a competition of pure strength, I was not his opponent.” Qingfeng Li’s face became gloomy, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Qingfeng Li’s pupils kept moving, trying to think of countermeasures.
In fact, Qingfeng Li still had a trump card, the Golden Flames. If he wanted to kill Li Xie, it would not be difficult. But unless it was absolutely necessary, he did not want to use it.
That was because he was about to enter Hell, and there would be a lot of ferocious and dangerous enemies. There were ghosts that Qingfeng Li needed to deal with, and the Golden Flame could be the best weapon he had.
Li Xie saw that his Wicked Imperial Fist had knocked Qingfeng Li back. His eyes flashed with a touch of happiness. He once again swung his giant fist, and fiercely punched it against Qingfeng Li, continuously knocking Qingfeng Li back.
This time Black Puppy came over, its eyes flashing with coldness.
Whoosh!
Black Puppy was also very powerful. Its body suddenly flew up, and it lashed out with its right paw, striking forward like a lightning bolt. It swung it directly onto Li Xie’s fist and knocked him back one step.
Chapter 1280: Zhentian Mo
Li Xie’s face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He never thought that he would get pushed back by a dog. Dammit!
The surrounding people were in awe after witnessing this scene. A dog had actually pushed back a half step Spirit Emperor!
Black Puppy reached out its right dog paw, pointed it at Li Xie with a look of arrogance, and said, “Bastard, your time is up. Let Grand Daddy Dog kill you with one slap.”
It must be mentioned that Black Puppy was very arrogant and domineering. Other than Qingfeng Li, it called himself Grand Daddy Dog or, if it was feeling humble, just Master Dog in front of everyone.
“Puppy. You are looking for death,” Li Xie scolded and pulled out a long black blade from his interspatial ring.
The width of this long sword was more than a meter long and pitch black in color. It was emitting a crispy black light; the light rushed into the clouds and pierced the sky.
“Li Xie pulled out the Wicked Emperor Blade. This is a powerful weapon!”
“Not bad. Li Xie hadn’t used the Wicked Emperor Blade for three years now. If he uses this long sword, he must be using it to kill.”
“The Wicked Emperor Blade appeared, so blood must be shed. Qingfeng Li will definitely die.”
After seeing Li Xie taking out the Wicked Emperor Blade, the surrounding people were shocked, and they were all began commenting on it.
In the World of Self-cultivators, the Wicked King Blade was very famous. Many Self-Cultivators were killed by this blade. Many people had seen this blade, and their bodies grew soft because they were threatened by the power of the blade energy.
Although the surface of Wicked Emperor Blade was black, if one looked closely, the tip and the blade were dark red. The color came from excessive killing, where too much blood had gone into the blade and dyed the tip and edge of the blade.
Black Puppy’s face became serious. It felt a sense of danger from the Wicked Emperor Blade. This was no ordinary sword, as it was an emperor level spiritual treasure.
Although Black Puppy did not have any spiritual treasures, it had superpowers.
“Bastard dog, go to hell.” Li Xie shouted and swung the long black blade vigorously. It cut through the air, and a huge crack appeared. With magnificent power, it struck toward Black Puppy fiercely.
“If Master Dog doesn’t show you some power, you’ll think I’m just a weak Hello Kitty?” Black Puppy shouted as it opened its mouth and shot out a black light.
This black light was super strong, piercing a huge hole in the sky and colliding with the long sword. A deafening sound as loud as thunder was created.
The surrounding space cracked and disappeared, and a huge energy force was dispersed in all directions, causing rocks and sand to fly everywhere. It was chaotic, and the surrounding people retreated backwards.
“Shoot, this Black Puppy is strong.”
The surrounding people were full of shock and surprise. They thought Li Xie’s Wicked Emperor Blade would kill Black Puppy for sure.
But the situation ended in reversed, Black Puppy actually defended Li Xie’s attack.
“Bastard dog, let’s see how many times you can defend from my blade.” Li Xie smiled coldly and waved the black blade in his hand once again. It pierced the air and turned into a black blade shadow, carrying forward a huge energy force and striking towards Black Puppy again.
Black Puppy opened its mouth and shot out a black whirlpool. This was the superpower it had just comprehended, and it had the ability to devour attacks.
The Black Whirlpool contained a strong attractive force, and it directly sucked in the blade energy from the long black blade. It even wanted to suck away the long black blade, but the blade was extremely powerful and actually freed itself from the whirlpool.
“What, it even absorbed my blade energy?!” Li Xie’s eyes were full of surprise when he saw his blade energy get sucked in by Black Puppy’s superpower.
Li Xie knew that his long black sword was an emperor level spiritual treasure and was very powerful. What is this whirlpool from that puppy? How did it defend against an emperor level spiritual treasure?
Li Xie waved his longsword again and pierced the air, aiming toward Black Puppy once more.
Black Puppy was not showing any signs of weakness. It spat out a Black Whirlpool and used its dog claw against Li Xie at the same time. It was a terrifying fight between the two.
Qingfeng Li did not assist the puppy, because he knew that it had a huge amount of pride and that it did not like help when it was in a fight.
Qingfeng Li walked to the side and wanted to challenge the Grand Elder of the Sect. At this time, the Grand Elder was fighting with Sky-Devouring Snake. They were both half-step Spirit Emperors, and it was difficult to distinguish who had the upper hand.
But danger arose from Qingfeng Li’s left side. He turned his head over to look and saw a man with a huge figure. It was a middle-aged man wearing a red robe staring at him heartlessly, full of killing intentions.
Qingfeng Li recognized this middle-aged red robe man. He was the Devil-Imperial Sect’s sect master, Zhentian Mo.
The Devil-Imperial Sect was a strong emperor level sect. Their sect master, Zhentian Mo, was a half-step emperor level master and was very strong.
“Qingfeng Li, you killed many of us from the Unorthodox side. Today, I need to kill you to avenge those you killed,” Zhentian Mo looked at Qingfeng Li and said heartlessly.
In the world of cultivation, Qingfeng Li’s fame came from killing many self-cultivators of the Unorthodox Dao. Both the Crimson Blood Sect and the Demonic Blood Sect were eliminated by Qingfeng Li completely.
Qingfeng Li was not only the unorthodox’s enemy but also the enemy of the Devilish Dao.
Zhentian Mo was very powerful. He took a right step, and a huge crack appeared right in front of him, which was more than a few ten meters long and extended to Qingfeng Li’s feet.
Suddenly thorns shot out from the ground, lashing out at Qingfeng with spikes.
Qingfeng Li kicked his right fist at the thorns suddenly, cracking the thorn and turning it back into soil.
Earth elemental vital essence!
Qingfeng Li’s face changed slightly. He did not think Zhentian Mo practiced Earth Elemental Vital Essence. It had the ability to freely transform soil and rocks in its attack.
Fortunately, Qingfeng Li comprehended the Gravity realm. The Gravity realm used the force of attraction, so it made Qingfeng Li extraordinary sensitive and responsive to his surroundings; he could defend against all that was coming his way.
“Not bad, little brat. You actually defended my earth thorn attack but let me see how many times you can defend it.” Zhentian Mo looked at Qingfeng Li with disdain.
It was just a teaser since Zhentian Mo had not used many of his attacks yet.
Zhentian Mo stomped his right foot harder this time. Four thorns appeared around Qingfeng Li’s body. Each of the four thorns spread towards the four different directions, front, back, left and right, all towards Qingfeng Li.
These thorns were earthy yellow and very sturdy, yet they were incredibly sharp.
Qingfeng Li did not want to be careless and pulled out his Fire Emperor Sword. He originally wanted to use the Golden Light Sword, but he figured Zhentian Mo was a half-step Spirit Emperor. Since his earth thorn attack was already extremely powerful, Qingfeng directly took out the Fire Emperor Sword.
The Fire Emperor Sword exuded a red flaming temperature of a thousand degrees. It was refined into a legendary sword by magmatic stone and meteorites.
Qingfeng Li swung the Fire Emperor Sword and sliced towards the front. He chopped the earth thorn in half, letting it fall to the ground. Next, he drew an arc with the sword and cut the four thorns around him into half as well.
Chapter 1281: Linger Yao’s Help
Qingfeng Li swung the Fire Emperor Sword in his hands and destroyed the four earth thorns that were surrounding him, turning them into pieces.
The surrounding people were all shocked to see this.
It was known that this was not just anybody’s attack, it was Zhentian Mo’s, but Qingfeng Li blocked it.
Zhentian Mo’s face turned gloomy, and there was a cold flash in his eyes. He did not think that his own earth thorns attack would be defeated by Qingfeng Li that easily. The red longsword in Qingfeng Li’s hand was indeed very powerful.
“Emperor level spiritual treasure? I can’t believe a Spirit King Realm master like you would have an emperor level spiritual treasure. It is such a waste to be in your hand. Hand it over,” Zhentian Mo said to Qingfeng Li.
Zhentian Mo got a little greedy as he wanted to take the long sword from Qingfeng Li’s hand for his own use.
“Give it to you? Who do you think you are for me to give it to you?” Qingfeng Li was stunned and said with a look of disdain.
Qingfeng Li had gotten the Fire Emperor Sword from the Fire Emperor Palace. Obviously, he would not give it up unless he was stupid.
“Hmph. If that’s the case, I’ll kill you and take the spiritual treasure away from you,” Zhentian Mo said coldly. His body levitated in midair, like a sharp sword, the long black blade striking downwards at Qingfeng.
Qingfeng Li gathered the vital essence in his body and struck out fiercely with the Fire Emperor Sword in his hand. The fiery red flame collided with the long black blade.
The sword energy and the blade energy collided fiercely, shattering the void and sending tremors through the dimension.
Bang!
The area issued a loud noise like an earthquake, causing Qingfeng Li’s body to retreat a whole four steps before he could regain his footing.
Qingfeng Li was at the Spirit King Realm’s seventh level. There was still a big gap between him and someone at the half-step Spirit Emperor Realm. Even though he was holding the Fire Emperor Sword, his body still receded a few steps back.
Zhentian Mo was a bit shocked. He could not believe Qingfeng Li was still not dead from a full force attack. It only pushed him back a couple steps.
“Blood Demon Rope.” Zhentian Mo whispered. He took out a red rope from his body and threw it at Qingfeng Li.
This red rope was only a meter long, but it elongated to two meters long as it flew at Qingfeng. It was red in color, and crimson rays ran along the rope, flashing red beams. It was emitting a strong aura.
This rope had a very fast speed, it was even faster than lightning. It arrived in front of Qingfeng Li in a blink of an eye and tied him up.
Qingfeng Li’s face changed, and he waved the long sword in his hand. He wanted to chop off the rope, but then he realized the rope was very tough. It was refined by emperor level materials and simply couldn’t be cut.
While Qingfeng Li was tied up by the rope, another red thunder beam flew from the side. The thunder beam struck on the red rope and split it open.
“Who? Who dares to stop me from killing Qingfeng Li?” Zhentian Mo’s face changed, and he retrieved the split rope in his hand. He looked around, and his eyes flashed with a cold glint.
Zhentian Mo looked over and realized the thunderbolt beam that interrupted his attack earlier was the Demonic-Imperial Sect’s sect master, Linger Yao.
Zhentian Mo’s face changed and said coldly, “Linger Yao, what is the meaning of this? How dare you split my rope and stand in my way of killing Qingfeng Li.”
Linger Yao smiled coldly and said, “I don’t like your face.”
Fu*k!
The surrounding people heard Linger Yao and were stunned by her arrogance. She split Zhentian Mo’s rope because she simply hated seeing him.
Qingfeng Li stood in the distance, his feelings were mixed, and he was confused. He understood why Linger Yao had said what she said, and it was obviously aimed at him.
Zhentian Mo was furious when he heard Linger Yao. What did it mean by hate seeing him? He was the Devil-Imperial Sect sect’s master and a half-step Spirit Emperor, the same level as Linger Yao.
Both were supporting pillars in their respective dao on the side of the unorthodox, and both were domineering emperor-level figures. No one would have thought that Qingfeng Li would be the reason Linger Yao troubled herself.
“Linger Yao. Don’t forget you are on the side of the unorthodox. You are not part of the orthodox. Don’t protect the orthodox and become my enemy,” Zhentian Mo said to Linger Yao, looking displeased.
“Who I want to protect is none of your business. I hated your face from a long time ago. If you dare, we can have a fight.” Linger Yao flourished the Purple Storm Sword in her hand.
The purple thunderbolt beam came out of the long sword, blasting through the air toward Zhentian Mo.
Zhentian Mo’s changed. He was from the Devil-Imperial Sect and practiced demonic techniques. Thus, he was most afraid of thunderbolts and flame.
Zhentian Mo dodged to the side but the thunderbolt’s speed was too fast. It struck in front of him in a blink of an eye. He put out his right palm and conjured a Heavenly palm to block the purple thunderbolt attack.
The thunderbolt obtained power from the thunder and struck towards Zhentian Mo’s refined heavenly palm. The thunderbolt turned Zhentian Mo’s palm into pitch black charcoal. His face turned pale and his body receded backward.
“Spirit Emperor Realm. You have reached the Spirit Emperor Realm?!” Zhentian Mo’s face turned gloomy and was shocked.
Back in the days, Zhentian Mo had the same strength level as Linger Yao. Even when Linger Yao had the Purple Thunder Sword, it did not do that big of damage to him. But now, his right hand was fried.
What did this mean? This meant that Linger Yao had reached her breakthrough and stepped into the Spirit Emperor Realm.
Linger Yao smiled and said. “You are not my opponent.”
During this time, Linger Yao was refining the Fire Emperor Pearl, she discovered the Fire Emperor Palace with Qingfeng Li.
The pearl in the red coffin, as well as a red treasure armor, were taken away by Linger Yao.
It was because Linger Yao had refined the Fire Emperor Pearl that she reached the new realm.
Zhentian Mo’s face changed and he was dissatisfied. Although he wanted to kill Qingfeng Li, he knew he couldn’t because Linger Yao was in his way.
“Qingfeng Li, today is your lucky day. If you step into Hell, I will kill you for sure,” Zhentian Mo said to Qingfeng Li with a cold smile and turned away.
Seeing this scene, surrounding people had a strange face on them. They would not have thought the person saving Qingfeng Li was an unorthodox ‘s sect master, Linger Yao.
Qingfeng Li wanted to thank Linger Yao but Linger Yao flew away without looking back at him. She flew towards the entrance of hell because there was an immortal sutra currently lying at the entrance of hell, covered in golden light.
The surrounding self-cultivators saw Linger Yao headed towards the entrance of hell, and did not want to fall behind. They rushed towards the entrance of hell to obtain the immortal sutra as well.
The golden immortal sutra seemed to have a mind of its own. When it saw crowds of self-cultivators heading towards the entrance of hell, it immediately turned into a gold beam and entered beneath the entrance of hell, ultimately disappearing and leaving everyone dumbfounded.
Chapter 1282: The Terror of Hell
The immortal sutra entered Hell. At the same time, the phantoms above the entrance of Hell also disappeared. They didn’t fight anymore, vanishing into the river of time.
The entrance of Hell was a giant black hole hundreds of meters wide, dark and terrifying like a huge mouth of a monster which could swallow humans whole.
The masters of the Sword Emperor Sect, the Blade Emperor Sect, and the Beast Emperor Sect all followed Linger Yao and rushed into the Hell under the Kunlun Mountains.
Besides these super masters of orthodox, the master of the Wicked-Imperial Sect also stopped the fight with Black Puppy and ran into Hell. Along with him was the master of Devil-Imperial Sect, who was a good friend of him.
Other powerful self-cultivators such as the Old Monster of the North Sea, the South Pole Spirit King, White-Browed Daoist, the Bamboo King Sect, the Flying Beast Sect, and the Piano King Sect also rushed in with their disciples.
There were over ten thousand self-cultivators that ran into Hell in total for the Immortal Sutra.
Everyone knew the horrors of Hell.
They understood the dangers there. In the deepest parts of Hell, there were peerless ferocious beasts, ghosts, devils, and other horrible creatures beyond their imagination.
But all of them still entered to get the Immortal Sutra.
That was the meaning of being a self-cultivator, which was fighting with the heavens, with the earth, with other humans, for opportunities, techniques, and treasures. They would be fighting for everything.
“Boss, let’s go in.” Daoist walked by Qingfeng Li’s side and said.
Qingfeng Li nodded and waved his hand, “Let’s enter together. Everyone stays close and don’t leave the team. It is very dangerous inside.”
Everybody nodded and then followed Qingfeng Li, walking toward the entrance of Hell.
The entrance looked like it was a few hundred square meters large, but when they entered, they found it had a vast amount of space inside. Hell was actually a huge mystic realm!
A mystic realm?
Qingfeng Li felt a chill down his spine the moment he entered the Hell. He felt freezing coldness inside his body like he was trapped in an icehouse and couldn’t stop shivering.
Even Qingfeng Li became this cold, let alone the people beside him. Wolf Fang Sect, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, Flower Fairy, Xianzhi Qin, and Ziyue Jiang were all shivering with pale looks.
Hell, was indeed not a place for humans.
Qingfeng Li and the rest felt the freezing aura entering their guts and damaging their bodies the very moment they entered.
Qingfeng Li raised his head and looked above. It was completely dark over this mystic realm, without the sun or moon. It was all darkness around, but self-cultivators had good eyesight and could see through a long way.
The dimension Qingfeng Li stayed was the first level of Hell, which was 100 thousand square kilometers large. There were many plants, trees, hills, and rivers here, but all these things were pitch black.
One of the plants had a flower, but the flower was also black with complete darkness and no other colors.
“Boss, everything here is black. It’s quite horrible,” Daoist looked around and said.
They could see many colorful plants, flowers, and animals outside, but here in Hell, everything was black.
Qingfeng Li frowned and said, “We are 3000 meters underground. It’s only the first level of Hell. We have to find the entrance to the second level.”
Qingfeng Li walked forward after saying this, and the others followed him closely.
Qingfeng Li let Black Puppy lead the way because he had come here before during the ancient era. Although he had only reached the first three levels, he was quite familiar with this place.
Black Puppy explained the situation of Hell to Qingfeng Li and the rest when leading the way. It was terrifying here. The water was undrinkable, and the fruits were inedible because they all contained the aura of death.
Ahhhh…
Suddenly, a few screams came from the front. It seemed that someone had met some horrible things.
“Something happened in the front. Let’s go and check.” Qingfeng Li waved his hand and led the rest forward.
They managed to cover 300 meters after a while.
There were over ten self-cultivators dead on the ground. It seemed they had confronted with some horrible things before dying, with their eyes wide open, which looked terrifying.
Qingfeng Li checked these dead people but found no wounds on them.
In other words, they were not killed by external injuries.
“Boss, how can they die without any wound?” Daoist looked at these people, frowning with shock in his eyes.
Qingfeng Li released his spiritual power and realized the deceased’s souls was nowhere to be found. It seemed that their spirits were eaten by some creature.
“Careful, these people were not injured, but their spiritual power was eaten up. They might have encountered some powerful spiritual attacks,” Qingfeng Li said to others with a worried look.
Spiritual attacks were the most powerful and most weird among all attacks. They were very difficult to defend against and could kill humans at any moment.
“Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, and Ziyue Jiang, you three and I will stand in the four directions, preventing attacks from the wicked and evil entities,” Qingfeng Li said.
Qingfeng Li knew the Wolf Fang Team, Flower Fairy and the rest didn’t have strong spiritual power. So, he decided to surround them inside to protect them.
“Let’s keep moving.” Qingfeng Li waved his hands and led the rest forward.
A few hundred meters later, Qingfeng Li found tens of other self-cultivators.
They were dead just like the ones before. They had frightened looks on their faces, and their bodies did not contain a drop of spiritual power.
“Boss, luckily, we entered Hell last. If we entered at the very beginning, we would have faced these attacks.”
Qingfeng Li reached out his index finger and shushed, “Stop talking, something is getting close.”
Sssss…
A low noise came from the black grass beside them; something was approaching.
Qingfeng Li, Black Puppy, and Sky-Devouring Snake all heard this noise and turned silent.
Chapter 1283: Black Demonic Rats
The others also became anxious when they saw Qingfeng Li’s facial expression. They hid behind Qingfeng Li, not daring to make a move.
Shoo!
A black shadow shot out of the grass toward Qingfeng’s head.
This black shadow was too fast for them to react, moving like a black lightning bolt.
When the black shadow reached the front of Qingfeng Li’s head, it opened its mouth and let out a creepy smirk, showing its sharp fangs and preparing to bite Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li sneered and opened his mouth, running his spirit energy and performed the ‘Sky Shaking Roar,’ the first move of Lion Roar.
A powerful spiritual lion showed up above Qingfeng Li’s head.
The lion was conjured from spirit energy rushed toward the black shadow, making it tremble with fear. The shadow fell on the ground and died.
Qingfeng Li looked over and found that the shadow killed by Lion Roar was a rat.
Yeah, right, a rat.
“A black demonic rat? It’s a black demonic rat!” Seeing the rat on the ground, Black Puppy was shocked.
Seeing Black Puppy’s look, Qingfeng Li asked, “Puppy, are black demonic rats that terrifying?”
Black Puppy nodded and said, “They are very powerful demonic beasts on the first level of Hell. They are good at spiritual attacks and like consuming the spirit energy of self-cultivators.”
Alice pouted on the side and said, “Puppy, are they that powerful? I saw Qingfeng Li kill it pretty easily.”
Black Puppy turned stern and said in a low voice, “One black demonic rat is not terrifying, but they usually come in groups. Once one is killed, ten, a hundred, a thousand, even ten thousand more will show up. Then how do we deal with them?”
Hearing Black Puppy’s words, Qingfeng Li was stunned. He knew they were facing a crisis. He could kill one black demonic rat but had no solution for thousands of them.
Moreover, many of the rest didn’t have strong spiritual energy. They were definitely no match for the black demonic rats.
“Let’s get out of here,” Qingfeng Li waved his hand and said to the others.
But at the next moment, the Spiritual Millstone in Qingfeng Li’s mind suddenly generated a desire to swallow the black demonic rat.
Qingfeng Li stepped back after two paces and directly walked toward the black demonic rat.
Shoo!
The Spiritual Millstone showed up from the depth of Qingfeng Li’s mind, floating over the head of the black demonic rat, shaped like a white and black whirlpool. It was half white and half black, resembling the Tai Chi symbol.
The whirlpool turned into an ‘S’ shape, shining a weird light and shrouding the black demonic rat.
At the next moment, the remaining spirit energy in the dead black demonic rat was absorbed by the white-black whirlpool and returned into Qingfeng Li’s mind.
Qingfeng Li felt his spirit energy increasing rapidly, to the peak of the heavenly level.
The cultivation of spirit energy was just like that of vital essence, with different levels including the spirit level, earthly level, heavenly level, king level, emperor level…
Qingfeng Li’s spirit energy was only at the heavenly level, but after swallowing only one black demonic rat, it increased to the peak of the heavenly level, which made him very delighted.
The cultivation of spirit energy was much harder than vital essence.
Though Qingfeng Li had the Spiritual Millstone in his mind, he didn’t have any spiritual elixirs. He was also not a self-cultivator in unorthodox, who could consume the spirit energy of others, so, he improved very slowly.
But today, Qingfeng Li’s spirit energy increased after the Spiritual Millstone swallowed the power of the black demonic rat.
Of course, most of the spirit energy of black demonic rat was stored in the Black-white Millstone, and Qingfeng Li only absorbed a small amount of it.
Qingfeng Li stood right there with a touch of delight in his eyes. He felt like these black demonic rats were just giving spirit energy to him.
“Boss, why don’t you move?” Daoist asked Qingfeng Li in confusion.
Daoist understood the horror of these black demonic rats from listening to Black Puppy just now.
But unexpectedly, Qingfeng Li remained immobile. What if the black demonic rats showed up in groups?
Qingfeng Li understood Daoist’s worries. He shook his hands and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll destroy them if black demonic rats showed up.”
Daoist and even Black Puppy felt pretty speechless after seeing Qingfeng Li this confident.
Black Puppy mumbled to himself, “Your Master Dog is arrogant enough. But even I dare not to face groups of black demonic rats. You are just a master in the Spirit King Realm several levels lower than me. How dare you to look down on black demonic rats?”
Sssss…
At that moment, some noises came over.
Hearing this noise, Black Puppy turned anxious and said, “Damn, the black demonic rats are approaching. Let’s run.”
But Qingfeng Li shook his head and said, “No rush. Let’s wait and see.”
“Qingfeng Li, don’t you know that the black demonic rats are extremely powerful and good at spiritual attacks? Even I am no opponent to them,” Black Puppy said anxiously.
Though Black Puppy was powerful, with some memories and powers of his past life reawakened, he hadn’t yet awakened the spiritual power of his past life, so, he was very afraid of these black demonic rats.
The others around were also shocked. They didn’t understand why Qingfeng Li was still staying here carelessly when the black demonic rats were approaching.
Women feared rats the most. Flower Fairy looked awfully pale. She said, “Brother Li, these black demonic rats are horrible; why don’t we run away?”
Seeing the others afraid of black demonic rats, Qingfeng Li smiled slightly and said, “If you guys trust me, just stand behind me. I’ll handle this.”
Qingfeng Li was quite determined and confident, which gave the rest some courage.
These people had followed Qingfeng Li for a long time. They knew he wouldn’t lie and joke when it concerned their lives. He must have a method if he was this confident.
The Wolf Fang Team stepped up first and stood behind Qingfeng Li. They had known Qingfeng Li longest and believed their boss could deal with these black demonic rats.
Then Flower Fairy, Xianzhi Qin, Ziyue Jiang, and the others also walked behind of Qingfeng Li.
Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake didn’t step back. They were both ancestors of demonic beasts and were now in the half-step Spirit Emperor Realm. Just for their dignity, they couldn’t retreat.
Chapter 1284: Surging Spirit Energy
After a while, a dozen black demonic rats showed up in front of Qingfeng Li and the rest.
These black demonic rats saw the dead rat beside Qingfeng Li’s feet, and a ferocious black light appeared in their eyes, looking quite frightening.
Some passing self-cultivators were frightened with pale looks and hid far away, looking at Qingfeng Li with fear.
“Who is this guy, daring to face these black demonic rats and not run.”
“Yep, those black demonic rats are the most horrible demonic beasts on the first level of Hell. They feed on human spirit energy. He is doomed!”
“You fools don’t know him? He is Qingfeng Li, he’s really powerful.”
“Ahh, right, he is Qingfeng Li, who can fight with those half step Spirit Emperors. But he will still die confronting a few dozens of black demonic rats.”
These self-cultivators stood far away, pointing at Qingfeng Li and discussing.
Over ten thousand self-cultivators had entered the first level of Hell. Though tens of them had died, there were still lots of them.
Many of these self-cultivators knew Qingfeng Li; some were his familiar acquaintances.
Such as those from the Bamboo King Sect, the Flying Beast Sect, Eastern and Southern Sea Dragon Palaces. These acquaintances and friends of Qingfeng Li were also watching not far from him.
Xianxian Mu wanted her master to help Qingfeng Li.
But the master of Bamboo King Sect shook his head and said, “Xianxian, it’s not I don’t want to help. But the black demonic rats are too powerful with their spiritual attacks. Even I will die if I go in to help.”
Xianxian Mu sighed anxiously. She wanted to help but was stopped by her master.
Xianxian Mu had a distinguished status in Bamboo King Sect and was treated as the next sect master.
Her master would never let her take the risk. It would be a huge loss to Bamboo King Sect if she died.
“Big brother, let’s go help Qingfeng Li,” The third Princess of the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace frowned and said to Eastern Sea Prince.
Although the Princess disliked Qingfeng Li, she was once saved by him. She didn’t want him killed by black demonic rats.
The Eastern Sea Prince shook his head and said, “Sister, it’s not I don’t want to. But there are too many black demonic rats here. I can’t do anything to help.”
The Eastern Sea Prince didn’t like Qingfeng Li but didn’t hate him either. He was just a little annoyed by him and truly couldn’t help.
All the self-cultivators around were watching from a distance. They knew Qingfeng Li would be killed by black demonic rats with his spirit energy consumed in a short time.
Black demonic rats were wellknown in the first level of Hell and even in the entire self-cultivation world.
They had gone extinct in the mountains and forests of Huaxia and only existed in Hell.
Qingfeng Li stood calmly in front of the dozens of black demonic rats with no fear as if they were nothing to him.
“Kid, how dare you kill one of us. You’re doomed.” The leading black demonic rat was twice the size of the normal ones.
Black demonic rats were demonic beasts that lived in groups, with strict division of work. Usually, fifteen black demonic rats formed a squad.
Eventually, fourteen black demonic rats showed up, which were exactly the size of a squad if they included the dead one from earlier. They looked at Qingfeng Li with chilling murderous spirits in their eyes.
Qingfeng Li was excited as if he was looking at a delicious meal, and so was the Black-white Spiritual Millstone in his mind.
This Spiritual Millstone was very eager to swallow the spiritual power of these black demonic rats.
“You filthy black demonic rats have killed so many people. I’ll send you back to Hell today,” Qingfeng Li looked coldly at black demonic rats and said.
The leading black demonic rat turned sullen. It pointed its claw forward and yelled, “You four, go and swallow his spirit energy.”
Shoo-Shoo!
Four black demonic rats rushed out like four strikes of black lightning, flying at Qingfeng Li’s head and biting at him instantly.
These four rats opened their mouths and screamed when they bit at Qingfeng Li. It was actually a sound wave attack!
But their attack was swallowed by the Spiritual Millstone after entering Qingfeng Li’s mind.
“Sky Shaking Roar,” Qingfeng Li howled, with his spirit energy dashing out and forming a spiritual lion. The spiritual lion swallowed these four black demonic rats, causing them to shiver once before dropping on the ground, dead.
Qingfeng Li’s spirit energy increased rapidly again. At the same time, the second technique of the Lion Roar, called the ‘Earth Shattering Roar,’ also showed up in his mind.
Just as its name, the Earth Shattering Roar could crack the earth.
Qingfeng Li had great learning ability, and he learned this technique quickly.
Qingfeng Li was delighted. Lion Roar had ninth roars in total, each of which was very powerful. It was said that one could shatter a mountain with a single roar once they mastered the last technique.
“Bastard, you know spiritual attacks too? No wonder you are this conceited.” The leading black demonic rat’s face turned dark with embarrassment.
It wanted to get those four rats to eat Qingfeng Li’s spirit energy, but they were killed by Qingfeng Li instead.
“All of you, go and eat this guy’s spirit energy. I’ll make him as dead as a doornail,” the leading black demonic rat said coldly with anger.
Hearing these words, the self-cultivators around were all trembling with fear from deep within their bones.
Shoo Shoo…
Over ten black demonic rats rushed toward Qingfeng Li. This time they came from all directions instead of one.
Qingfeng Li didn’t care a little. He opened his mouth and performed the technique he just learned, the Earth Shattering Roar.
With a roar coming from Qingfeng Li’s mouth, two spiritual lions were shaped, which were more powerful than before.
With one Sky Shaking Roar and one Earth Shattering Roar, the spiritual lions generated cracks in the sky and earth.
Those black demonic rats dashing toward Qingfeng Li were shattered into pieces by the two powerful spiritual lions. Their spirit energy was also swallowed completely.
Seeing this scene, the people around were totally shocked. This Qingfeng Li was too powerful with this invincible spiritual attack. It was unbelievable that he had killed all these black demonic rats with one attack.
