Chapter 1829: The Fight for Spiritual Root
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Qingfeng killed the three-eyed poisonous spider with one pinch, as all the other self-cultivators looked on in shock and stepped back.
They all felt that Qingfeng was very powerful and that they weren’t worthy opponents for him, so it would be best not to bother Qingfeng.
Qingfeng didn’t look at the other self-cultivators’ expressions, but instead, he continued to say, “Come, let’s move forward. Be careful everyone.”
Qingfeng and others didn’t move very fast, which was their plan, because Qingfeng knew that there were three middle-tier dynasty forces that entered the tunnel. Aside from Meng Lin, there were the Emperor of Sky Array Dynasty, and Emperor of Spirit Talisman Dynasty. They all had incredible power, and no less weak than Qingfeng, as they were all at third level spirit monarch realm.
If Qingfeng fought them alone, then there might be a chance of winning, but if it was one against three, then he had no chance to win.
So, Qingfeng wanted them to walk in the very front, so that once they found the spiritual stone, they would fight amongst themselves while Qingfeng watched. It was his plan all along.
The mine tunnel was very big and grew deeper as one walked more inside. Rushes of cold wind came from the underground, as people shook in response.
Qingfeng activated his internal fire vital essence to fight off the cold energy. At the same time, a few poisonous demonic beasts, which included poisonous snakes, centipedes and other bugs crawled from the depth of the underground.
However, without any exception, Qingfeng killed them all, and now that he has reached first level spirit monarch realm and acquired the Emperor’s Law, his Golden Flame could reach nine thousand degrees, and was invincible.
Mengyao Xu, Yun Ya and others followed behind Qingfeng, as it was incredibly safe. They followed behind Qingfeng so that he would protect them from danger.
Shortly after, Qingfeng led the group towards a massive empty hall.
Qingfeng’s face changed, because the hall seemed to have been built for humans, which shocked him, because the spiritual veins were underground, and there shouldn’t have been men who passed by.
This hall was ten thousand square meters big, as a massive spiritual vein stood in the middle. The spiritual vein crossed through the middle of the hall into the depth of the underground. There were at least ten thousand spiritual stones on the spiritual vein above the surface and they were all monarch grade spiritual stones.
Now, all around these spiritual stones, Meng Lin, Sky Array Emperor, and Spirit Talisman Emperor all stood with their own forces in three different directions and looked at each other with caution.
They all wanted to take the stones but were afraid of others’ attacks, because the spiritual stones were too alluring.
The Sky Array Emperor had lived for several hundred years and has extensive experience, so he thought of a good idea.
The Sky Array Emperor laughed as he said loudly, “Meng Lin, and Spirit Talisman Emperor, all three of us are third level spirit monarch realm powers. If we fight each other, then we would all be wounded. There are at least ten thousand monarch grade spiritual stones, why don’t we share it equally amongst ourselves?”
After Meng and Spirit Talisman Emperor heard the Sky Array Emperor, their eyes glistened, “Right, why should we fight amongst ourselves? Others might take advantage of our fighting, even if we share it equally amongst ourselves, it would be more than enough.”
Qingfeng’s face grew grim; who knew the Sky Array Emperor would think of such an idea? How could Meng and Spirit Talisman Emperor also agree with his idea?
Qingfeng had to get the three to fight amongst themselves, which was his only hope.
Mengyao came to Qingfeng’s side, and asked, “Brother Li, what should we do now? Should we go and steal those spiritual stones?”
Qingfeng waved his hands and said, “Let’s wait first and see if anything happens. I don’t think stealing these spiritual stones would be that easy. Once the spiritual stones reached monarch grade, they gain their own spirituality, and must have their own intelligence, so that average self-cultivators couldn’t get to it.”
Without a doubt, everything was what Qingfeng expected. In the next moment, the ten thousand spiritual stones all went deep into the underground, into the depth of the tunnel.
From the other direction, Meng, Sky Array Emperor, and Spirit Talisman Emperor all froze. They initially failed to realize that the spiritual stones were escaping, and now that the stones all escaped, they felt depressed.
Suddenly, Meng Lin remembered something as he shouted loudly, “I know, these spiritual stones must have given birth to spiritual roots. Spiritual roots are only born at least four level monarch grades, so as long as we find the spiritual roots in these spiritual stones, we could reach fourth level spirit monarch realm, or even higher. Everyone, go and chase after it!”
All the self-cultivators’ faces filled with excitement. They have heard of spiritual roots, as it formed when all spiritual stones’ spirituality gathered together. It was the essence of spiritual stones, heavenly divinity, and earthy soils, as it was the purest of all.
Meng, Sky Array Emperor, and Spirit Talisman Emperor looked at each other, as they hurried towards the depth of the tunnel. They wanted to acquire the spiritual root, as it was far more crucial to them than those spiritual stones.
Qingfeng has heard of spiritual roots before, so his eyes also filled with excitement, as he waved his hands and said, “Let’s hurry forward as well.”
Qingfeng has given his all, even if he had to fight Meng, Sky Array Emperor and Spirit Talisman Emperor all together, then he still wouldn’t back down. Unlike the spiritual stones, there was only one spiritual root, and he had to get it.
The depth of the tunnel was pitch black, but the self-cultivators all had incredible power, and incredibly powerful Penetration Vision. As long as they could release their spirit energy was released, they could clearly see the danger in the air, rocks, and ground.
Hints of hissing sound came from the depth of the tunnel, which was made by the underground poisonous demonic beasts. They launched attacks to protect the spiritual root.
However, for super powers like Meng, Sky Array Emperor, Spirit Talisman Emperor, and Qingfeng, they weren’t afraid of these poisonous demonic beasts at all. With a one of their punches, they could easily kill these demonic beasts.
Finally, Meng Lin, Sky Array Emperor, Spirit Talisman Emperor, and Qingfeng, along with many self-cultivators behind them all drove the spiritual root towards the end of the tunnel. There was a firm rock in front of them that blocked their way, with no escape.
This spiritual root has just sucked in all the ten thousand spiritual stones inside its body, as it turned into a ginseng-like form of one meter tall. However, unlike ginseng, it was like a round pillar, which glowed with white glisten and Emperor seal scripts that gleamed. It looked like a human face, as it could turn into human form, like a ginseng.
Meng, Sky Array Emperor, and Spirit Talisman Emperor all rushed forward with their hands towards the spiritual root.
The spiritual root was like a sad baby that stood there, as if it was about to cry, and looked at the three people sadly.
Chapter 1830: Headless Demonic Corpse
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Qingfeng stood from afar, and clearly saw the mockery in the spiritual root’s eyes, it clearly did so on purpose.
It must be able to use the tunnel to run away, but it stayed on purpose to attract Meng Lin, Sky Array Emperor, and Spirit Talisman Emperor, so that they would fight amongst themselves.
The three third level spirit royal realm powers Meng Lin, Sky Array Emperor, and Spirit Talisman Emperor all charged out with their Emperor’s Law fists and legs, as Heavenly Dao order seal script glowed.
The horrific energy spread out as sand and rocks flew up. Even if the tunnel rocks were extremely strong, it was all exploded into a massive hole, as the three of them fought for the spiritual root until their death.
The three of them were just laughing, and even established a bound, because there were one thousand spiritual stones. Now the spiritual root absorbed all the spiritual stones, and there was only one spiritual root, and all of them wanted it.
Not only Meng Lin, but also Sky Array Emperor, and Spirit Talisman Emperor all fought together, as even the self-cultivators behind them took out their dharma weapons and started attacking.
All of a sudden, the entire tunnel filled with aggressive fighting. It was you die, or I die, as arms, legs and even head were shattered, as blood poured out and filled the entire tunnel, as the tunnel reeked of blood.
Qingfeng led Sky Wolf Emperor, Mengyao, Yun Ya and the others towards the very back. They stayed out of this battle, even though the spiritual root had massive allure, but Qingfeng knew that he was a weakling amongst all this.
Qingfeng also noticed the spiritual root laughing naughtily in the corner and was shocked.
The spiritual root had spirituality, and human intelligence. The Grand Thousand World lived up to its fame.
All things in the universe have their own evolutionary road. A strand of grass could become a saint, or a flower could be immortalized, just as a spiritual root could have spirituality, it was nothing to be feared.
There were one thousand or so self-cultivators inside the tunnel, each with incredible power, as they all now fought with their full-force and used their vital essence dharma treasures. They fought each other to the death, nonstop.
As more people died, the blood-stench in the air grew stronger.
Suddenly Qingfeng frowned as he felt a huge rush of powerful danger, which terrified even him.
Qingfeng hadn’t even felt danger when he faced Meng Lin, Sky Array Emperor, and Spirit Talisman Emperor.
It only meant that this sudden danger had massive force. It wasn’t from those self-cultivators, but instead it came from the back of the mine tunnel.
Qingfeng’s face changed as he said, “Mengyao, Yun Ya, let’s back up and not stay here, it’s dangerous.”
After Qingfeng spoke, he was the first to step back, as Mengyao, Yun Ya both stepped back without hesitation, because they had absolute faith in Qingfeng and followed closely.
天狼大帝,黑色小狗,吞天蛇也是毫不犹豫的向着后方退去,虽然灵根对他们有很大的吸引力,但是他们更相信李清风的直觉.
Sky Wolf Emperor, Black Puppy, and Sky-Devouring Snake also stepped back without hesitation. Even though the spiritual root had great attraction, but they all trusted Qingfeng’s instincts.
Qingfeng’s instincts were never wrong, once he said there was danger, there must be grave danger.
In the next moment, a loud explosive sound came from the depth of the ground, as a massive black devil palm reached out from beneath.
The black devil palm was incredibly powerful as devilish energy boiled about. As the palm launched, it clashed onto Meng Lin’s body and drove his body into the air, as he spat out blood, with numerous broken bones.
Then, the black devil palm launched again, and drove Sky Array and Spirit Talisman Emperor’s bodies into the air. They flew out by several hundred meters, as their bones shattered with loud sounds, and their faces pale, as if their skeleton collapsed.
Those self-cultivators close by couldn’t withstand the powerful black devilish energy from the palm at all, as the exploded without remaining corpses or bones.
The spiritual root’s face filled with horror when it saw the black devilish palm, its head dove into the soil, shook in fear as it ran rapidly, and disappeared in an instant.
The massive devilish palm continued to climb forward, as a headless devilish corpse crawled from beneath the ground.
This headless devilish corpse had no head, as only neck and below remained, while rest of its body was covered with dense black hair. Each hair strand was tough like iron needle and a meter long, like a caveman.
The headless devilish corpse waved its palm again, and it clapped forward as it immediately killed a hundred or so self-cultivators in the tunnel. The bodies turned into a blood fog that quickly gathered towards his body and was absorbed by him.
Meng Lin, Sky Array Emperor, and Spirit Talisman Emperor have all been wounded by the devilish palm, as they struggled to stand up, and looked at each other with terror.
Meng Lin shouted loudly, “Run! We’re no match against this powerful headless devilish corpse.”
The Sky Array and Spirit Talisman Emperors all nodded, as the three of them all hurried outside the tunnel cave.
Behind them, several self-cultivators hurried out as well, as some even screamed out in terror like as if they wished their parents had given them two more legs.
The headless devilish corpse laughed creepily, as it sounded throughout the tunnel cave. It was unbelievable, as if an ancient monster had been revived.
The headless devilish corpse then charged out incessantly with his two devilish claws and turned all the several hundred self-cultivators into blood fog, without any survivors.
Only the three third level spirit royal powers Meng Lin, Sky Array Emperor, and Spirit Talisman Emperor, and ten or so self-cultivators escaped out.
.
Qingfeng and others also ran incessantly in the tunnel. Qingfeng turned around when he heard the horrific screams, he immediately saw the headless devilish corpse, and it was the most horrific thing he has ever seen as even he trembled in fear.
Qingfeng pulled onto Mengyao and Yun Ya and ran like stupid.
Qingfeng and the others used all their energy to finally escape out. They panted heavily when they reached the surface outside.
Meng Lin, Sky Array Emperor, and Spirit Talisman Emperor also escaped out with ten or so self-cultivators, but all with terror on their faces.
One thousand or so self-cultivators have entered, but only ten or so survived, while everyone else died inside.
Chapter 1831: Besieging Qingfeng
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Qingfeng looked regretfully at Meng Lin, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor, who had escaped, along with the ten or so self-cultivators behind them.
He thought the headless devilish corpse killed them inside the tunnel, but who knew that they would have survived.
However, Qingfeng knew it was impossible, as the three of them were all third level spirit monarch realm powers, with great speed, power, and reflexes. They must have noticed the headless devilish corpse’s strength and ran immediately.
Sadly, the other few thousand self-cultivators died inside the cave. Undeniably, the Mysterious Sun Realm was incredibly powerful, and a devil had hid itself inside the spiritual veins, which shocked them.
Mengyao and Ya Yun’s attractive face grew pale, as they trembled in terror.
Mengyao patted her chest as she said with fear, “Brother Li, if it wasn’t for you responding so quickly, then we might not have escaped the headless devilish corpse.”
Qingfeng lightly smiled, without a word; instead he looked at Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor before him, because he noticed that they were looking at him ferociously with coldness in their eyes.
Meng Lin said to the Sky Array Emperor beside him, “That youth over there is called Qingfeng. He has two super powerful spiritual treasures, one is the Golden Flames, and the other is the Sky Breaking Halberd. The Golden Flame is a saint level flame, and if we get it, we can burn the headless devilish corpse inside the tunnel.
After the Sky Array Emperor heard Meng Lin, his eyes lit with joy. He had heard of this Golden Flame and knew that it was an immortal’s flame of the ancient universe era.
The Golden Flame could be ranked in the top hundred of all the flames in the universe and was incredibly famous for its power.
The headless devilish corpse was most afraid of two things, flames and lightning. They already had greedy thoughts, as they planned to steal Qingfeng’s flames.
The Sky Array Emperor and the Spirit Talisman Emperor followed Meng Li, surrounding Qingfeng and the others.
Even the ten or so self-cultivators who survived surrounded Qingfeng as well.
Although they had escaped the tunnel cave, fighting still continued all of a sudden, all because Qingfeng had spiritual treasures on him. However only the Chief Commander refused to join.
The Chief Commander didn’t want to bully the weak, plus he respected Qingfeng and refused to attack him.
Mengyao’s attractive face slightly changed as she stepped forward and said coldly, “What are you trying to do?”
Meng Lin roared in laughter and said, “Beauty, what do you think we’re doing? We’re going to kill Qingfeng and steal his Golden Flames. If he hands over the Golden Flames, then we might leave him a complete corpse, or else we’ll chop him up and toss him inside the tunnel to feed the headless demon.”
Mengyao was furious when she heard Meng Lin’s brutal and despicable words. She never thought that the person before her would be so shameless. He claimed to not only want to steal Qingfeng’s treasure, but also to kill him.
Qingfeng lightly smiled as he grabbed Mengyao’s arm and pulled her behind him, and said, “Don’t worry, they are all despicable. I’ll kill them today.”
Meng Lin roared with laughter as he said, “Qingfeng you’re wild. We’re all on the third level of the spirit monarch realm, while you’ve only reached the first level. Do you really think you can beat us?”
Qingfeng didn’t care at all as he replied, “You three have all been wounded by the headless devilish corpse. Do you really think you’re powerful? If you don’t bother me, then I’ll let you live, but since you’ve already offended me, I’ll take all of you to hell. Don’t think you can escape.”
Meng Lin, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor all shook their heads as they smugly looked at Qingfeng.
Meng Lin said even louder, “Qingfeng, we are wounded, but do you really think we don’t have recovery elixirs on us? Let me tell you, we’ve all brought elixirs with us, and our wounds are now all recovered.”
After he spoke, Meng Lin, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor all released lively full-blooded force that tore through the clouds as they stood firm on the ground with talisman scripts on their bodies glowing like suns that lit up the whole place, without any signs of wounds anywhere.
Qingfeng’s face changed, he thought they were just bluffing about recovering from their wounds, but who knew that all three of them were actually fine.
Undeniably all three of them were intermediate-tier kingdom Emperors with abundant treasures on them, and even had elixirs that immediately treated their wounds.
Mengyao, Ya Yun and the others’ faces all changed. If the three of them were wounded, then they would still have faith in Qingfeng, but now, the three had recovered, which shocked them.
Qingfeng felt hints of regret. If he knew of this, then he wouldn’t have shown off, because if he couldn’t beat them, then he could always escape.
However now it was impossible, because if he ran, then he would bring great danger upon Mengyao, Ya Yun, the Lingyun Emperor, Black Puppy, and Sky-Devouring Snake.
He had no choice but to fight.
Qingfeng grew cold as he stepped out with fierce energy and said, “Since you want to steal my treasures, then come. I want to see how powerful you three middle-tier dynasty emperors truly are.”
He would go all out now; since they wanted to kill him, then naturally he shouldn’t sit around. Instead he decided to use his most powerful techniques to attack first, not giving them a chance to retaliate.
“Wind Elemental Wings.”
Qingfeng shouted as he released his wind wings, forming two rays of green wind that charged forcefully forward with great speed. Suddenly he appeared beside Meng Lin.
Qingfeng hated Meng Lin the most, so his first target must be him.
Qingfeng moved his mind and released the Sky Breaking Halberd, as it glistened with golden light in his right hand. He transferred his vital essence into it, as the surface glowed with order talisman script energy.
He charged towards Meng Lin with his Sky Breaking Halberd, as it exploded with four million kilos of force. It tore through the space, shattered the air, and sent rocks and soil flying everywhere.
Meng Lin’s face changed as he felt a rush of massive force that seemed invincible to him.
Without hesitation, Meng Lin activated his physical technique to transform into a ray of green smoke to quickly dodge to the side. He chose to hide and not confront Qingfeng.
Chapter 1832: Battling Alone Against Three Spirit Monarch Realm Masters
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Qingfeng’s face grew cold as he didn’t think Meng Lin would be this smart. He saw the strength of the Sky Breaking Halberd and dodged it.
As Qingfeng waved his Sky Breaking Halberd and continued to attack Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor and Spirit Talisman Emperor both swung their spiritual treasures as they charged towards Qingfeng, blocking his way.
The three people were now fighting Qingfeng together, entrapping him.
Although the Sky Breaking Halberd in Qingfeng’s hands was invincible, he was only a first level spirit monarch realm, while the others were three middle-tier dynasty emperors, each with their impressive strength no less than Qingfeng.
Qingfeng had no other choice, he had to stop attacking Meng Lin as he florished his Sky Breaking Halberd and clashed with the spiritual treasures of the Sky Array Emperor and the Spirit Talisman Emperor. The impact shook the sky with massive soundwaves.
The two third level spirit monarch realm powers, the Sky Array Emperor and the Spirit Talisman Emperor both released a massive force that pushed Qingfeng’s body back by a step.
The Sky Array Emperor and the Spirit Talisman Emperor’s eyes filled with shock when they saw that Qingfeng only stepped back.
With their two forces combined, they should have killed him even if he was an average third level spirit monarch realm self-cultivator, but who knew Qingfeng would only be forced to step back.
Qingfeng’s spiritual treasure was too powerful, and the two of them grew more determined as they tried to steal it.
Kill, kill, kill!!!
Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor all shouted with murderous energy, as they waved the spiritual treasure in their hands and charged at Qingfeng again. The three allied masters almost shattered space, as dimensional fragments floated around.
Mengyao, Ya Yun, the Sky Wolf Emperor, and the others all hid away. It was best for them not to intervene with this high-calibre fighting.
Qingfeng fought three third level spirit monarch realm powers alone, even though he was on the losing side and was forced back, he wasn’t wounded, which meant that he was able to fend off these three masters alone.
The ten or so survivors all looked on with shock.
“Qingfeng is too powerful, I thought he would be killed by Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor in a second, but who knew that he would remain unharmed.”
“Qingfeng’s fighting abilities are several times higher than his actual capacity. Don’t you see that even Meng Lin doesn’t dare to challenge the Sky Breaking Halberd?”
“I have a suspicion. Even if Meng Lin, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor united together, they might not even be able to kill Qingfeng.”
All ten or so surviving self-cultivators looked at Qingfeng with shock and admiration.
Even though the large majority of them were the servants of Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor, but they naturally respected powerful characters.
Plus, when they encountered the headless devilish corpse in the tunnel, Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor all turned to run and ignored them, which made them lose trust in them.
Meng Lin heard the self-cultivators’ discussion, and his face grew dark as he turned to say, “What are you talking about? I’ll rip your skin off.”
The ten or so self-cultivators were terrified and stopped talking. Then Meng Lin shouted, “All of you, go and take care of those women and demonic beasts behind Qingfeng.”
Even though the vice-lord of the city, and the ten or so self-cultivators felt reluctant, they still took out their spiritual treasures and unleashed their vital essence as they charged towards Mengyao, Ya Yun, and the others.
In another direction, Qingfeng coldly looked at Meng Li, thought that he was the main provoker, and figured that he had to kill him first.
Qingfeng activated his wind wings, incessantly appearing by Meng Li’s side as he swung his Sky Breaking Halberd with sky shattering strength. He charged towards Meng Lin nonstop, without a care for the Sky Array Emperor and Spirit Talisman Emperor on the side.
Meng Lin was furious. Who knew that Qingfeng would only chase after him? Plus, Qingfeng’s Sky Breaking Halberd was far too strong. Every time it clashed downwards, it was enough to shatter a mountain, which shocked Meng Li.
Several times, Qingfeng’s Sky Breaking Halberd passed by Meng Li’s body, tearing apart his shirt and even scraping his skin several times, causing blood to pour out.
Meng Lin cried out in anger, “Sky Array Emperor, Spirit Talisman Emperor don’t hold back. Use your full force to kill Qingfeng.”
The Sky Arrayi Emperor nodded, as he waved his white cane to form an array formation that trapped Qingfeng.
The Spirit Talisman Emperor then waved his hand to form a spiritual talisman script, which contained wild Emperor’s talisman script force that clashed towards Qingfeng.
Qingfeng’s face grew cold, as murderous intent appeared in his eyes. Without any reservation, he activated his Golden Flame to form a ray of golden light that shot towards Meng Li.
At the same time, Qingfeng swung his Sky Breaking Halberd towards the Sky Array Emperor and Strangle Hell Fist towards the Spirit Talisman Emperor.
Qingfeng used his strongest attack, the Golden Flames, which suddenly appeared before Meng Li and shot onto his palm, causing him to scream out in pain.
The Sky Array Emperor’s face changed on the side, as he hurriedly said, “Meng Lin, hurry and chop your hand off, or you’ll die for sure.”
Shortly after, the Golden Flame burned a massive hole onto Meng Li’s hand, as it spread up his arm. Meng Lin was terrified, as he hurriedly pulled out his sword and slashed his hand off.
However, Meng Lin was a third level spirit monarch realm master, with many elixirs that recovered missing arms. He immediately ate one, as his body recoiled to absorb the elixir.
Then Meng Li’s hand grew back, but the intense pain still made his face pale, as he screamed out.
All the self-cultivators around saw that Qingfeng broke the powerful Meng Lin, Sky Array Emperor, and Spirit Talisman Emperor’s defense, and that Meng Lin was heavily wounded.
With one look, Qingfeng found the flaws in the Sky Array Emperor’s array formation, and with a heavy clash of his Sky Breaking Halberd onto the flaw, he shattered the array formation.
The Sky Array Emperor was shocked and felt that Qingfeng was too demonic. Not only did he have superior combat abilities, he was also very knowledgeable of array formations.
Chapter 1833: Spiritual Root Escapes
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Qingfeng released a golden Strangle Hell fist that clashed onto the Spirit Talisman Emperor’s talisman script and shattered it. Both of their bodies stepped back, as they coldly looked at each other.
Qingfeng stood up against three third level spirit monarch realm masters without a sign of defeat.
Meng Lin, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor all looked at each other in shock.
They were all intermediate-tier kingdom Emperors, with their own fames, and were listed amongst the top hundred and five super powers, as countless Crimson Fire Mainlanders respected them.
Before, they could kill any self-cultivator easily, even if they were a first level spirit monarch realm master, or even a second level spirit monarch realm master.
Qingfeng was only at the first level of the spirit monarch realm, two realms lower than them, yet they still couldn’t defeat him even if the three of them fought together, which meant that Qingfeng was far too powerful.
For example, his Golden Flames could penetrate through anything, such that not even Meng Lin could withstand it. His Sky Breaking Halberd was mysterious as well, being an unknown kind of spiritual treasure.
The Sky Breaking Halberd weighed four million kilos; such that no self-cultivator dared to block it unless they were above the seventh level of the spirit monarch realm.
Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor looked at each other as they channeled their vital essence again and crazily charged towards Qingfeng.
They knew that a grudge was built with Qingfeng, one side had to die, and they had to kill Qingfeng, or else he would seek revenge once his power increased. By then, they would never defeat Qingfeng.
Qingfeng naturally saw through the three’s plans, but he wasn’t worried, because he trained in the Heavenly Immortal Chant, which could supply him with endless vital essence.
His internal sun spirit nucleus matched the sun vital essence in the Mysterious Sun Realm, such that he could absorb it at a great speed and thus didn’t need to worry about his vital essence running low.
However, on the other side, Mengyao, Ya Yun, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, and the others were fighting with the ten or so self-cultivators.
Clearly, Sky Wolf Emperor, Black Puppy, and Sky-Devouring Snake were more powerful, and each time Mengyao florished her Fairy Sword, all the self-cultivators were forced back with new sword wounds on their bodies.
The Sky Wolf Emperor was ferocious, as he released his Monarch Law every time to form a Sky Wolf with horrific force and charging towards the self-cultivators to break their bones, as they cried out in pain.
Qingfeng looked at Mengyao and the others and felt relieved when he saw that they were safe.
Qingfeng then continued to release his spiritual treasure attacks at Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor. The four were entrenched in an incredibly fierce battle, as they used up all their energy with their strongest attacks.
The space around shattered, as they punctured a deep hole into the ground, a few thousand meters deep.
The wild force killed all the demonic poisonous snakes, centipedes, and spiders in the ground, as their bodies shattered into ashes.
A five thousand or so tall mountain not far from them was also shattered into ashes, as plants, animals, and demonic beasts all died, like it was the end of the world. This was the force of the third level of the spirit monarch realm; it was absolutely invincible.
Qingfeng, Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor’s forces all clashed together, creating a powerful force that rushed several thousand meters deep underground.
The headless demonic corpse was just training, as he had just killed several thousand self-cultivators and absorbed all of their blood essence.
However, the wild force disrupted the headless demonic corpse’s training, as he roared out in anger.
The headless demonic corpse prepared to rush above ground, but just as he was about to leave, he found the spiritual root, filling him with joy.
The headless demonic corpse knew of the spiritual root powers, as he had been searching for it for a while, but had found no trace of it. Who knew that he would bump into it just as he was about to leave.
The spiritual root grew scared when he saw the headless demonic corpse. It had spirituality, and originally planned to watch Qingfeng fight the other self-cultivators, hoping that they would kill each other. It had no idea that it would be found by the headless demonic corpse!
The spiritual root’s eyes filled with shock. It knew that the headless corpse was a huge devil, and if he managed to catch it, then he would definitely eat it.
The spiritual root grew scared, and immediately ran into the depths of the ground.
In its eyes, the headless demonic corpse was much more powerful than Qingfeng and the others, so it was not afraid of being found by Qingfeng and the others.
Qingfeng was just fighting fiercely with Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor, but they suddenly saw the spiritual root come out from the underground, and their faces changed as they stopped fighting.
They all looked at the spiritual root with desire, because it was what they all came to the depths of the tunnel for.
They only wanted to kill Qingfeng to steal his Golden Flames to fight the headless corpse underground, so that they could then get the spiritual root. Everything was done for the spiritual root, but now that they’ve seen it, they naturally ceased fighting.
Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor looked at each other, as they shouted at each other, “Catch the spiritual root!”
The three of them all stopped fighting Qingfeng, as they ran towards the spiritual root like a pack of bees.
The spiritual root was shocked. As soon as it escaped the tiger, it found itself before wolves; this infuriated it.
The spiritual root screamed like a baby in anger, “You bad guys are all picking on me, I’ll run away.”
The spiritual root’s two feet ran forward like crazily, and looked ridiculous. Even Qingfeng was dumbfounded, who knew the spiritual root would have human intelligence, talk like a human, and even run like a human?
Roar roar!!
Suddenly a massive roar erupted from the ground, as the headless demonic corpse caught up. He suddenly waved his devilish palm towards the spiritual root, but it was far too fast, as it disappeared instantly.
The headless demonic corpse failed to catch the spiritual root and decided to vent off his anger onto the self-cultivators around.
The headless demonic corpse slapped out, and clashed onto Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor, as the three of them flew out, as more of their bones shattered, and blood poured out as their eyes filled with horror.
At this time, Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor had no time to bother with Qingfeng and the spiritual root, as they ran all in three different directions.
All the other self-cultivators ran off without even turning back their heads.
The headless demonic corpse turned to look at Qingfeng, as he released devilish energy and murderous intent.
Chapter 1834: Fending Off Headless Demonic Corpse
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
The headless demonic corpse looked at Qingfeng and frightened him, causing Qingfeng’s eyes to fill with fear. Qingfeng was clearly afraid of the headless demonic corpse.
Even though Qingfeng was very powerful, with many dharma treasures each with their invincible power, but Qingfeng’s ability was still fairly weak. He was only first level spirit monarch realm, and far less powerful than the headless corpse.
Qingfeng could clearly feel that the headless demonic corpse released invincible devilish energy.
The headless demonic corpse looked at Qingfeng as it let out a terrifying laugh and said, “You’re doomed today. Your physical strength is very nice… I like your body, so let me eat you.”
Qingfeng’s eyes grew grim and cold when he heard the headless corpse. He knew he had to punish this headless corpse today, or else the corpse wouldn’t let him go.
Qingfeng could run away, but he had Mengyao and Yun Ya beside him, so he couldn’t do so.
Qingfeng looked at the headless demonic corpse with coldness in his eyes as he said angrily, “You want to kill me? Then I’ll have to beat you up to show you how powerful I am. Do you really think I’m only as powerful as those three dumbass Emperors?”
The headless demonic corpse released invincible devilish energy that covered the sky, as the entire space filled with black devilish energy. The sky and ground cracked, as the sky turned dark, the headless corpse was so powerful that it covered the light of the two suns in the sky.
All around, countless ghosts and dead souls cried out.
The headless demonic corpse waved his massive devilish palm, nearly several thousand feet in size, as it charged towards Qingfeng.
Qingfeng’s eyes turned cold. He didn’t take out the Sky Breaking Halberd, because he knew that although it was an incredibly invincible spiritual treasure, it wouldn’t have too much damage on this headless corpse before him.
It was a powerful devil, but it still feared flames and lightning the most. Qingfeng just happened to have both of those treasures, so he decided to give him a surprise.
Qingfeng released his Golden Flames from his right hand finger, like a golden fairy that danced around as it was tossed forward, to form a ray of golden light.
The golden light tore through the sky, burned up the void, as it suddenly rushed onto the massive devilish palm, and burned the devilish palm with crackling sounds. The black devilish energy then burned into nothingness and disappeared.
The headless devilish energy might have been a great devil, but it had lived here for the past few thousand years and still hadn’t died. Its devilish palm was incredibly powerful, such that not even a third level spirit monarch realm master like Meng Lin could block it, but Qingfeng’s Golden Flame defeated it.
The headless demonic corpse roared in anger and said, “How did you acquire the saint level Golden Flames? But it doesn’t matter. You can only use it a few times, so let’s see how many times you can fight off me.”
The headless demonic corpse was incredibly furious towards Qingfeng, because he had lost a lot of devilish energy with the previous attack, which was a huge drain on him.
The headless demonic corpse waved his devilish palm again to form powerful devilish energy and charged towards Qingfeng.
Qingfeng’s eyes grew cold, as he released Golden Flames again and burned up all the devilish energy again.
Qingfeng has already used his Golden Flames twice, and now three times, which caused him to reach his limit and couldn’t release it anymore, or else it would cause irreparable damage to his spirit nucleus.
He sighed, because he thought that he could completely kill the headless demonic corpse with his Golden Flames, but it seemed like he underestimated the headless corpse’s power.
This headless demonic corpse was far too strong. He could block the Golden Flame just with his devilish palm, as countless devilish souls cried from inside his palm and demonic energy boiled inside and filled the sky.
Qingfeng’s face grew pale, because he has used the Golden Flames far too many times, but of course, the headless demonic corpse had lost more than a third of its devilish energy, as his whole body appeared to pale.
Even though the headless demonic corpse had lost a lot of devilish energy, it still laughed with wild arrogance as it said angrily, “Human, your Golden Flames are now used up. Just watch how I kill you.”
This time, without any holding back, the headless demonic corpse stomped heavily onto the ground, soaring into the sky and charging towards Qingfeng in an attempt to kill him.
Qingfeng’s eyes became frenzied as he said coldly, “You forced me to do this, so don’t blame me for it. Today I’ll let you taste my lightning power.”
Qingfeng pulled out the Thunder Pearl from his interspatial ring and crazily transferred vital essence into it, causing the Thunder Pearl to sound out loudly.
Qingfeng activated his internal Thunder Chant, as his finger pinched a spell chant, and released all of the thousand bolts of lightning.
A thousand bolts of red lightning appeared from the void. These lightning bolts were incredibly abundant and tightly packed together, like flies in the sky, as it heavily clashed onto the headless demonic corpse, and shattered its devilish energy as it screamed in pain.
Even though the headless corpse had no head, he still had his soul, and so his body could feel the change in his environment, as his whole body trembled uncontrollably, and spat out white foam from his mouth.
The headless demonic corpse looked at Qingfeng with terror and said loudly, “How could you control lightning? You damn human, today I give up.” The headless demonic corpse was truly terrified now.
The headless demonic corpse shouted angrily, as he immediately turned to escape into the under ground.
He was terrified of the lightning; if he feared the Golden Flames, then he was definitely terrified of the lightning as well.
He was once killed by a lightning saint, so he was naturally terrified of lightning, more so than flames.
When Qingfeng saw that the headless demonic corpse had ran under ground, he collapsed onto the ground with a pale complexion, feeling that his whole body had been spent.
Under normal circumstances, once Qingfeng activated the Thunder Chant, he could only release one hundred bolts of lightning, but this time, because he wanted to defeat the headless corpse with one punch, he released one thousand bolts of lightning.
This already surpassed what his body could withstand, as even his veins were spent, as his skin had cracked and blood was seeping out.
Chapter 1835: Spiritual Root Acquired

Mengyao Xu and the others all hurried over and surrounded Qingfeng with worry on their faces.
Mengyao blinked with her delicate lashes, as she placed her hands on Qingfeng’s wrist, and transferred her vital essence over to him to help him recover.
With Mengyao’s help, Qingfeng shortly recovered his vital essence.
Qingfeng stood up and wiped the cold sweat off his head as he said, “That was terrifying, luckily the lightning of the Thunder Pearl scared away the headless demonic corpse, or else I wouldn’t know what to do.”
Everyone else around nodded with empathy. When the headless demonic corpse attacked, everyone thought they were doomed; even the Sky Wolf Emperor thought he would die.
Even with his ability, he was defenseless before the headless demonic corpse. The devilish energy filled the sky, as if it was the end of the world, and this imagery was still stuck with him.
They even had a feeling that this headless demonic corpse must have been one of the Sun Monarch’s major generals several thousand years ago. He had incredibly powers, so he had to have a great background.
However after over a few thousands of years have passed, he lost his head and his sanity. He started to train in devilish techniques and sucked human self-cultivator blood to elongate his own life.
Qingfeng said, “Let’s leave now, or else the headless demonic corpse will attack again if he recovers his vital essence. By then, we won’t be able to beat him.”
Qingfeng led the way, as Mengyao, Ya Yun, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, and the Sky Wolf Emperor all followed behind.
Their powers and combat abilities weren’t as powerful as Qingfeng’s, so naturally Qingfeng led. Plus, they knew that they could only survive under Qingfeng’s protection.
Even the top dog in the realm, Black Puppy, started to admire Qingfeng, because Qingfeng held many rare treasures, and each was invincible.
After Qingfeng and the others walked a thousand meters or so, he said to Black Puppy, “Use your nose to smell out the spiritual root. We have to catch it.”
Black Puppy nodded, as it raised its nose to smell around.
Shortly after, joy filled its eyes, as Black Puppy pointed its right dog paws to the south and said, “There is a small river, and the spiritual root is hiding underneath it.”
Qingfeng’s eyes filled with joy, as he looked at Black Puppy with praise. He knew that he had made a good choice to bring Black Puppy along with him.
This dog nose was incredibly sensitive; as long as it smelled something once, it could find it anywhere within a massive radius.
Qingfeng and others all ran like crazy a hundred miles south. Shortly after, they arrived at a small river.
This small river wasn’t very big, being roughly ten feet wide, but of incredible length, as it dropped down from a high peak and continued without an end.
Qingfeng looked over and saw no end. There were different kinds of rocks inside the river, as some even piled on the side of the river.
There were various kinds of different demonic beasts, and they were all water demonic beasts. After they saw Qingfeng, they released ferocious light, as they wanted to drag him into the river.
Qingfeng’s eyes filled with coldness as he took out his Sky Breaking Halberd, charged forward, and killed a demonic crocodile. All the demonic beasts ran away when they saw how brutal Qingfeng was.
Black Puppy raised its dog paws as it said to Qingfeng, “Right underneath that rock is where the spiritual root is hiding, don’t let it get away.”
As soon as Black Puppy spoke, the spiritual root jumped out from the rock underneath the river.
The spiritual root stared at Black Puppy fiercely, as it turned to run. It activated its intelligence, and spirituality, and heard Black Puppy.
It knew this was no normal dog, with no average background. The dog had some ancient super power, or else it wouldn’t have been able to find it.
The spiritual root was incredibly hidden, such that not even the three third level spirit monarch realm masters, Meng Li, the Sky Array Emperor, and the Spirit Talisman Emperor, could find it.
Qingfeng’s eyes filled with anger, as he said, “Do you think you could get away?”
[Gravity Realm, two thousand times gravity technique]
Qingfeng directly released his Gravity Realm, as everything within several thousand feet was forced down with two thousand times the strength of gravity. The spiritual root was pinned onto the rock and was kept from moving.
Fear and shock filled the spiritual root’s eyes, as it looked at Qingfeng with disbelieve. How could this human be so powerful? He even learned the powerful imperial grade Gravity Technique.
Qingfeng heavily stomped onto the ground and soared into the air. He immediately appeared before the spiritual root, and held the root in his right hand. Then he channeled his vital essence to trap the spiritual root and kept it from running.
The spiritual root said human words, “Don’t kill me, don’t absorb me. I don’t want to die.”
Qingfeng was shocked when he heard its voice; it sounded like a human, but it was only a spiritual root that was born from ten thousand imperial grade spiritual stones, as it gained intelligence.
Qingfeng shook his head and said, “Sorry, I must absorb you to increase my power.”
Just then, Dark Night Emperor’s voice rang inside Qingfeng’s mind, and said, “Little brat, you don’t have to absorb this spiritual root. It has already gained spirituality, so you only have to absorb parts of its, and leave the rest. It could regrow those parts again once it has absorbed enough energy from nature.”
Qingfeng’s eyes filled with joy when he heard the Dark Night Emperor. This meant that, the spiritual root before him was a priceless gem and could be harvested over and over.
He only needed to leave the spiritual root with a seed, so that it could absorb the spirit from the heaven and earth, and not long after, it would be able to grow new spiritual stones or roots.
That way, Qingfeng would have a continuous spiritual stones and roots source by his side, and his training would be able to increase and reach new level like crazy.
Qingfeng said to the Emperor, “Thank you, Senior, I’ll share a third of the spiritual root with you.”
Dark Night Emperor looked at Qingfeng with satisfaction, as he turned silent without another word.
Chapter 1836: Meng Lin Came

Qingfeng rolled his eyes as he threatened the spiritual root before him, “If you don’t want to die, then obey me, or else I’ll completely absorb you, and leave not a trace of your body or soul.”
The spiritual root was terrified as it hurriedly nodded and said, “I’ll do whatever you tell me to, as long as you don’t kill me.”
Qingfeng looked at the spiritual root before him with a hint of a smile. He knew that the spiritual root was terrified of being killed completely because it didn’t want to die.
Aside from humans, demonic beasts, and a spiritual root with intelligence with over thousands of years of training won’t willingly want to become human food.
Qingfeng said, “Don’t worry, I won’t absorb all of you. However you must offer at least 90% of your spiritual root to me, and I’ll leave you with 10%.
The spiritual root shook its head nonstop when it heard Qingfeng, as it said loudly, “You can’t do this to me. If I only have 10% left, then it would be extremely slow for me to absorb the energy from nature. It will take me at least a thousand years to grow back, you’ll never wait until then.”
Qingfeng thought the spiritual root was right. If he left it with too little, then his training speed would be slowed down.
He thought for a moment and then said quietly, “How about this. I want at least 60% of your spiritual root, and I’ll leave you with 40%. Then you can absorb the energy of nature, and give me a bit of your spiritual stones every year or half to increase my abilities.”
The spiritual root seemed unwilling and upset, but it had no other choice because its fate was completely in the hands of this human.
Qingfeng looked at the spiritual root with disdain, as he said, “To prevent you from running away, I will plant a spiritual mark on you. If you try to run away, then it will destroy your soul and not allow you to reincarnate.”
After he spoke, he activated the spirit energy in the depth of his mind, and with a light point of his right-hand finger, he drew an ancient talisman script.
This ancient talisman script contained boiling energy, but it wasn’t vital essence strength. Instead it was the mysterious spirit energy that formed the void talisman script. The Spiritual Mark contained hints of Qingfeng’s spiritual energy, as it imprinted into the depth of the spiritual root’s mind.
The spiritual root felt its body tremble without reason, but when Qingfeng released his spirit energy, it was as if it had seen an ancient god.
Even though the spiritual root had acquired intelligence, it knew this youth before it was no average master, because he had invincible powers.
The spiritual root had no other choice but to give 60% of its body to Qingfeng.
Qingfeng’s eyes filled with joy, as he took a third for himself and then gave three thousand monarch grade spiritual stones to Dark Night Emperor for him to absorb.
Qingfeng still had three thousand left, with great excitement he remembered to share the monarch grade spirituality stones with Sky Wolf Emperor, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, and the others.
Qingfeng knew that even so, he still had at least two thousand monarch grade spiritual stones left, and if he absorbed those, then his power could increase by at least several realms.
However contrary to his plans, Qingfeng forgot about the Dragon Bone in his right index finger.
The Dragon Bone wanted the spiritual stones as well, as it released golden Dragon Bone energy and directly sucked in half of the spiritual stones, only leaving Qingfeng with a thousand or so.
Whenever Qingfeng got spiritual elixirs in the past, the Chaos Millstone and Fire Dragon’s soul would always come out and fight for it.
Now that he acquired spiritual stones, he thought it would be safe from Chaos Millstone, but who knew Qingfeng’s Dragon Bone would absorb the spiritual stones?
However, the Dragon Bone was polite enough to only absorb half, and save half for Qingfeng.
Qingfeng felt speechless, as he held the leftover spiritual stones and said, “Let’s find a place to train, and absorb all of these spiritual stones.”
Qingfeng and others searched around, found a cliff with a cave, and entered it.
Certainly, there was a demonic beast inside the cave but it was killed by Qingfeng with one slap, and the cave became Qingfeng’s cave.
Qingfeng then placed a defensive array formation at the cave opening. He had monarch grade spiritual stones and could create monarch grade array formations such that even if Meng Lin arrived, it would take him ages to break in.
After he set the array formation, he walked towards the depth of the cave, sat down with crossed legs, and placed his spiritual stones before him, as he began to activate the Heavenly Immortal Chant.
A green light beam formed on Qingfeng, as his chest rose and settled, and all of his pores opened, like a straw that absorbed all the spirituality on the spiritual stones into his body.
Qingfeng’s body used to be full of vital essence, even in his spirit nucleus, but now that it absorbed in spiritual energy, it took some time to adjust.
However, the spiritual energy was clearly more powerful than vital essence, as it was more pure and full of energy, squeezing out all the vital essence and even cleansing it.
Qingfeng’s body was covered with black sweat, which was not normal sweat but actually the pulp and dirt inside his body.
His body released stinky energy, as his spirit nucleus changed; the purple spirit nucleus decreased from the size of an egg, smaller and smaller, until it became the size of a bean.
Although the spirit nucleus now grew small, Qingfeng felt an increase in his spiritual power, because he sucked in spiritual energy, which turned into spiritual power.
Plus Qingfeng’s skin, muscles, and tendons now became stronger than ever, as if his whole body was radiating strength like an ancient tiger.
Outside the cave, Meng Lin led the vice city lord, chief commander, and several other self-cultivators and approached.
Meng Lin took out a tracking spiritual device, as he said quietly, “I’ve felt the spiritual root inside, because when it escaped, I poured some powder on it while no one else noticed. Not even the Sky Array Emperor and the Spirit Talisman Emperor.”
The vice city lord stepped beside Meng Lin and said, “Your Royal Highness, if you say the spiritual root is inside the cave, then I’ll look inside.”
As soon as the vice city lord stepped forward to enter the cave, a strong force bounced his body right back.
