Chapter 67: What Did He Mean?
Atlas Studios Atlas Studios
To the west of Jing Prefecture was Liang Prefecture.
Meanwhile, ten thousand meters above the Liang Prefecture, an enormous condor with a human-like face was flying westward.
It was a condor-type demon with cultivation. At the moment, the condor was holding a spirit herb that emitted a golden glow in its claws.
Once I refine this Fiery Sun Grass, my cultivation shall break through. Hahaha, one day, I will be like that divine bird, soaring into the highest sky and beyond the nine heavens to become a peerless condor immortal! I’ve already thought of my new name. I’ll be called the True Condor Immortal!
However, it did not notice that a figure had suddenly appeared beneath its enormous body.
With the head facing down, the figure stepped on its abdomen.
Bang!
The condor only felt the world spin and the wind howl.
When the surroundings fell silent again, it was shocked to discover that it had really arrived outside the nine heavens.
The eagle’s face was filled with question marks, as it did not know what was going on.
It was flying properly and minding its own business. Why was it sent beyond the nine heavens by a powerful force?
Did the Heavenly Dao eavesdrop on my thoughts?
What the f…
How could there be no air outside the nine heavens!
It flapped its wings in horror, only to discover that it could not control its body at all.
He floated in the void and was guided by a strange power to glide above the land below.
The condor would never have thought of this scenario.
If it rushed out of the nine heavens, it might not necessarily become a condor immortal as it might become… a satellite.
…
The sky above the Nine-tailed Mountain. The intense sound of magic power colliding was like a thunderclap that shook the heavens and the earth.
Energy ripples were like raging waves that wreaked havoc in the sky, sweeping away the clouds.
The loud noise could be heard within a radius of five kilometers, and countless birds and beasts were terrified to the point of crawling on the ground and not daring to move.
The surrounding townspeople were also pale with fear.
Bang!
The giant hand seal condensed by magic power dissipated. Li Qingyun’s figure hurriedly retreated, and his face turned a little paler.
“Hmph, your cultivation hasn’t fully recovered as expected. You’re no longer my match. It’s the same even if Wu Chang fuses with you!” Law King Zi Long sneered.
Li Qingyun had the powerful power of the Dragon Slaying Sword and Wu Chang’s profound fire, so he could barely withstand a few of his moves.
However, his strength was not even 70% or 80% of what it was in the past. A far cry from his glorious old self.
“You should be rejoicing. Otherwise, you would have gone to the netherworld with your junior brother already!” Li Qingyun taunted with a smile.
He lamented in his heart that his abilities were really not as good as back then, and he could not defeat the Crimson Dragon King. He could not help but sigh.
However, he was not afraid. At most, he would become a cripple again by using a forbidden move to force this enemy to retreat.
If he could be more ruthless and sacrifice Wu Chang, he should be able to defeat the Crimson Dragon King in one move.
“Hmph, I really don’t know how you destroyed the Netherworld Demon Sect with this mediocre strength of yours!” Law King Zi Long sneered coldly and formed hand seals.
The giant runes condensed by magic power slashed through the air like a giant sword.
Li Qingyun frowned. The power of heaven and earth gathered around him, and his sword intent condensed into a golden sword shadow that clashed alongside the Dragon Slaying Sword.
Almost at the exact same time, a flying sword surrounded by three-colored profound light shot over. It grew in the wind and instantly transformed into a sword light that was dozens of meters long.
Both slashed onto the giant rune.
Bang! Bang!
Under the combined power of the two divine weapons, the gigantic symbol collapsed, and the two flying swords were sent flying back.
Crimson Dragon King had a sullen expression as he turned to look at the two figures flying over from the side.
They were Perfected Yu Hua and Perfected Taiwu of the Jade Pure Dao Sect.
“You must be the famous Crimson Dragon King!” Perfected Yu Hua arrived before him.
“Who are you? Mind your own business if you don’t want to die!” Law King Zi Long warned coldly.
“I’m the Sect Master of the Jade Pure Dao Sect, Perfected Yu Hua!” Perfected Yu Hua flew closer and cupped his hands.
At that moment, he was not as calm as he presented himself.
He had never expected that the Qingyun Sect’s sect master was the famous Divine Firmament Holy Land’s Holy Son, Li Qingyun.
He had witnessed some of Li Qingyun’s glorious days, so he recognized him.
However, the moment he saw Li Qingyun, many questions in Perfected Yu Hua’s mind were instantly answered.
Li Qingyun did have the ability to destroy the Netherworld Demon Sect, even though it was rumored that his cultivation had been ruined all those years ago, and he had even become a cripple.
As long as a true peerless genius was not killed, anything was possible.
“Hmph, scram as far as you can. If you interfere. I’ll destroy your Jade Pure Dao Sect too!” Crimson Dragon King bellowed angrily.
Other than the few Holy Lands, he did not care about the rest of the sects.
“Insolent! Do you really think you’re invincible? The Great Xia Dynasty is not a place where you can behave atrociously!” Perfected Taiwu snapped with no hesitation.
Although Perfected Taiwu’s cultivation was far inferior to the Crimson Dragon King, he had no fear since he valued his dignity over his life.
He would rather die than have his dignity trampled on.
If one was not afraid of death, he had nothing to fear.
“Crimson Dragon King, if you insist on attacking, we will make sure you never return even if we have to lose our lives!” Perfected Yu Hua unleashed his aura.
Although his Soul Formation Intermediate Stage cultivation was inferior to this Crimson Dragon King, his aura did not seem to lose out at all.
His sharp gaze and firm will could not be shaken.
Although he had heard of Li Qingyun’s incident in the past, that was the vendetta between him and the Clear Void Holy Land.
Li Qingyun was now a member of the orthodox sects of the Great Xia Dynasty, not to mention that Qingyun Sect had accomplished so much for the Great Xia Dynasty.
Therefore, if the Crimson Dragon King wanted to attack the Qingyun Sect, the Jade Pure Dao Sect could not stand by and do nothing.
“Hehe…” Listening to Perfected Yu Hua and Perfected Taiwu, the Crimson Dragon King chuckled.
After all, he was a top expert at the Profound Void Martial Stage. There was a significant difference in their level.
Therefore, to him, it was like a grown adult seeing a child become angry at him. Naturally, he would not be afraid and would find it funny.
“In that case, the two of you shall be buried with Li Qingyun!” A cold glint flashed in the Crimson Dragon King’s eyes.
The terrifying pressure of the Profound Void Martial Stage instantly poured out. Like an invisible hand, it stirred the entire sky and kept pressing on Li Qingyun, Perfected Yu Hua, and Perfected Taiwu.
Immediately, he struck out with his palm.
The gigantic palm condensed from magic power contained the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise projections as they roared and rolled down.
Li Qingyun, Perfected Yu Hua and Perfected Taiwu had cold expressions as magic power poured out. At the same time, they used their strongest spells to withstand the attack.
Bang bang bang bang…
The powers collided, and space shook. Li Qingyun, Perfected Yu Hua and Perfected Taiwu were sent flying. Their faces were pale, and a trace of blood flowed out of the corner of Perfected Taiwu’s mouth.
The strike of an old monster at the Profound Void Martial Stage was indeed terrifying in full force…
Right at this moment, a figure fell from the sky like a meteor. It was so quick that the robes were covered in flames.
After that, the figure smashed onto the Nine-tailed Mountain with a bang.
Airwaves surged as dust rose in all directions.
When the dust dispersed, a figure was seen slapping the flames on his body.
It was none other than Li Yu.
“Looks like I’ve returned in time!” Li Yu glanced at Li Qingyun, who was in midair, and he couldn’t help but feel relieved when he saw that his father was still alive.
“Phew, it’s a good thing you came back in time. Otherwise, I would have to re-cultivate again!” Li Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.
His words surprised Perfected Yu Hua and Perfected Taiwu, who looked at Li Yu and Li Qingyun with their mouths agape.
What did Li Qingyun mean?
