half an hour later
Li Xijun walked out of the general's mansion with an air of composure, as if it were just an ordinary visit from a junior to an elder.
He did not immediately head to the north gate, which led directly to the vast desert to the north.
Instead, they strolled around the nearby market as if they were just casually browsing, occasionally picking up small items from the vendors to examine them, just like any other tourist.
However, in reality,
His mind, however, was highly focused on practicing visualization techniques.
The golden bodies of the three deities and Buddhas within the sea of consciousness were thus partially depleted.
His spiritual realm, including his precognitive sincerity, had also reached its peak, allowing him to silently sense every subtle change in the energy of the world around him.
With his seemingly unintentional steps, the distance to the North Gate was gradually decreasing.
The unease in my heart did indeed gradually increase.
A chill ran through Li Xijun's heart. When he left Zhuoyu Garden earlier...
The reason he talked so much with the Eighth Prince was that visiting the old general was a reasonable excuse for leaving, followed by three days of cultivation and a banquet.
The idea was to simply grab the sword and run straight to the northern desert, aiming for a surprise attack.
However, despite cultivating the three supreme visualization techniques and possessing a pure and sincere heart, he discovered this during his first preparation for purification.
Whenever I make a move to advance to the North Gate, I have a premonition that I am restless!
It is said that there is an outsider watching them, but the other party is wary of Zhao Longcheng, a Grandmaster of the Earth Ranking, and is looking for the best time to make a move.
After all, once you take action at the outer realm level, the outer world will naturally be activated, which will directly attract the attention of Zhao Longcheng, a Grandmaster ranked within the city.
At that time, Li Xijun estimated that once he reached a suitable position, the other party would likely kill him directly, and then he could use the location near the city outskirts to escape.
Therefore, Li Xijun changed his course of action and went to the General's Mansion to test whether Zhao Longcheng, a Grandmaster of the Earth Ranking, was truly usable.
If that doesn't work, he'll have to find a secluded place and run away across the world.
Fortunately, the old general remained loyal.
Thoughts flashed through Li Xijun's mind, but he didn't stop walking. Unconsciously, he passed through a relatively quiet alley.
They were less than a hundred paces from the majestic northern gate, and could even clearly see the vast, windswept northern desert beyond.
And it was at this very moment!
"Buzz—!"
An intense, overwhelming feeling of palpitation pierced his heart like an ice pick!
coming!
Almost at the same instant the warning was issued,
The air in front of him rippled like water.
A figure, as white as snow and as cold as the moon, appeared without warning.
The newcomer had a graceful figure and an otherworldly beauty.
Her eyes and brows carried an ethereal and pure quality, as if she were untouched by worldly affairs, and her aura was clean and clear, like a celestial maiden who had mistakenly descended to the mortal world.
It was an elder of the Hehuan Xuannv Sect, ranked thirty-sixth on the Earth Ranking.
But the Moonlit Fairy, a powerful cultivator at the fourth level of the Outer Realm who has initially condensed her Dharma Image!
The moment she appeared,
The light within a radius of a hundred feet seemed to dim.
She was surrounded by a hazy moonlight, breathtakingly beautiful, yet also carrying a deadly danger.
She didn't say anything, but just glanced deeply at Li Xijun, then gently raised her slender hand and reached out to grab him from afar.
in an instant,
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth converged wildly, and a giant hand, woven from the clear moonlight and hazy radiance, appeared out of thin air.
The palm lines are clear and beautiful, yet they contain a terrifying power that can imprison space and seize the mind.
Countless enchanting illusions seemed to arise and vanish within the palm of one's hand, drawing one into their reverie.
The moment it appeared, it enveloped all of Li Xijun's space to dodge, its seemingly gentle yet irresistibly grasping her down.
Where the palm strike passed, the void solidified, and the air emitted a mournful cry of unbearable pressure!
Upon seeing the Fairy Muyue, Li Xijun's calm expression was shattered.
His pupils contracted sharply, revealing a hint of surprise.
The Hehuan Mysterious Lady Sect?
How could they have attacked me?!
According to Li Xijun's early predictions, the most likely candidate should be the Life and Death Sword Sect, followed by a powerful outsider from a rebellious cult, and at the very least, an outsider from an ambitious aristocratic family or royal family.
What do you mean by attacking me, a member of the Hehuan Xuan Nu Sect?
Li Xijun was filled with confusion, but fortunately, regardless of the other party's identity, he had already made arrangements.
At this critical moment—
"Outrageous! How dare you act so violently in the city!"
A cold snort, aged yet brimming with explosive rage, resounded across the sky like a thunderclap!
A thick, dragon-like crimson fist intent, carrying a terrifying will to burn the eight wastelands, arrived first from the direction of the General's Mansion, tearing through the sky and fiercely striking the moonlit hand!
"BOOM—!!!"
Two completely different yet equally terrifying exterior-level forces collided in a horrific clash!
The deafening roar seemed to threaten to overturn the entire north gate.
The crimson flames and the clear moonlight annihilated and exploded against each other.
The visible shockwave spread wildly in all directions like a tsunami.
The roof tiles of the houses on both sides of the street were lifted off in large pieces like fallen leaves, the solid bluestone ground cracked inch by inch like a spider web, and dust rose into the sky!
Zhao Longcheng appeared in front of Li Xijun as if by teleportation, blocking him from Mu Yue Fairy.
At this moment, the old general was no longer as calm as before. His beard and hair stood on end, his robe billowed, and his body was engulfed in raging flames that were almost tangible. The intense heat distorted the air, making him look like a raging fire god!
His illusory image faintly appeared behind him; it was a giant, roaring, coiled fire dragon!
"Fairy Muyue! How dare you set foot in Beiyan and attack His Highness? Do you think my blade is ineffective?!"
Zhao Longcheng's voice boomed like thunder, his gaze sharp as lightning, fixed intently on Fairy Muyue, his killing intent soaring to the heavens.
The intense collision with the opponent's aura of cold, ethereal yet omnipresent Dharma form caused the wind and clouds to change color, and lightning to flash and thunder to roar!
The two grandmasters' domains collided repeatedly in the air, producing a sizzling sound that made one's teeth ache.
"Zhao Longcheng, your lifespan is nearing its end. Why make an enemy of our sect for the sake of an illegitimate prince? Hand over this child, and our sect can extend your life by ten years." Fairy Muyue's voice was ethereal, still devoid of any hint of worldly malice.
at the same time,
The moonlight around her grew even brighter, and behind her, a faint image of a cold and aloof goddess appeared, its clear light scattering down, attempting to erode and freeze Zhao Longcheng's fiery domain.
"Nonsense! Even in death, I will remain the General Who Guards the North of the Great Xia Dynasty. How could I possibly compromise with you demons and monsters!"
Zhao Longcheng roared and threw a punch. The fiery dragon roared, and the fire energy that could burn the sky and boil the sea collided fiercely with the moonlight, causing an even more terrifying explosion!
The two grandmasters instantly clashed, their flames and moonlight colliding wildly, their laws intertwining, their spiritual power raging, dyeing half the sky red and white.
But it was clear that the crimson flames were far superior.
As evening fell, it was as if a sun had appeared in the sky, illuminating the entire area as if heavenly fire had descended.
However, Zhao Longcheng was clearly much stronger than his opponent.
Seeing this, Li Xijun did not hesitate.
His spiritual power erupted, and his figure transformed into a black shadow. Seizing this fleeting opportunity, he rushed towards the nearby North Gate at top speed.
Once you break through the city gates and step into that vast, boundless desert, the world opens up before you.
however,
Just as his foot was about to step out of the shadow of the city gate and into the sunlight outside the city—
Mutation and regeneration!
In the shadows beside the city gate,
An eerie sword intent, a mixture of extreme "deathly stillness" and "vitality," erupted without warning!
A gaunt, ghostly figure seemed to crawl out of hell.
The Life and Death Sword Sect's outer realm expert, Jing Wuming, thrust out his pure white sword, representing the meaning of "life," first!
The sword light suddenly exploded, transforming into countless emerald green, thick vine-like phantoms!
These vines are not physical entities, but are formed from the life-giving sword intent of the "Heavenly Cycle of Life and Death Sword Chapter".
Each vine looked emerald green and glistening, its leaves swaying and exuding a powerful sense of life.
In reality, the sword energy flowing over each of these illusory vines transforms into countless magnificent flowers that wither and bloom in an instant, embodying the life of all things while emitting a powerful suction force, as if trying to devour the essence and spirit of others and transform it into nutrients for its own growth!
Ahead lies a dead end, a web of despair; behind, the aftershocks of a fierce battle between two grandmasters.
For the first time, Li Xijun found himself in an unprecedented and deadly predicament!
But his golden eyes remained cold and calm.
The state of harmony between heaven and man, and the ultimate application of the "Emperor's Qi Observation Technique"
In an instant, he realized that although this net of life force was vast and boundless, the flow of spiritual energy within it meant that the sword's vitality was not flawless.
Amidst that boundless burst of vitality, there lies a subtle "dead stillness" born from the extreme transformation of power!
"Your sword intent of life is nothing special!"
Li Xijun sneered at the sight of the sword.
Faced with the overwhelming net of swords, he not only did not retreat, but instead suddenly took a step forward!
The primordial mother, whom I had been visualizing in my sea of consciousness, suddenly opened her eyes, revealing a compassionate and serene appearance. This immortal raised the golden emperor's sword in her hand, drawing the killing intent of the white tiger.
Li Xijun drew his longsword from his waist.
A pure and perfect killing intent was born.
In an instant,
The wind in the entire world seemed to have stopped.
"roar!"
A terrifying tiger's roar that shook the surrounding area erupted from Li Xijun's body.
A murderous sword intent, so powerful it shook even the withered old man, Jing Wuming, flew out.
A sword light, devoid of any fancy moves and brimming with absolute killing intent, pierced into the core of that vital sword net.
White Tiger Seven Killings Style!
The sword of slaughter tore through the sky, and wherever it passed, the boundless sword intent of life withered, broke, and dissipated as if it had encountered its nemesis!
This sword strike, like the dreaded killing intent of the West, precisely struck the weakness in the opponent's move.
"Snap—!"
"Sizzle!"
A teeth-grinding cracking sound rang out!
That seemingly indestructible network of life-giving sword energy was completely shattered and annihilated by this sword strike, which was pure in its killing intent!
"To break life with death!" For the first time, a clear look of astonishment appeared on Jing Wuming's withered face.
He never expected that Li Xijun would possess a fully realized killing sword intent, and that the purity and terror of this sword intent were even greater than his own!
But his shock lasted only a moment before it was replaced by an even colder killing intent.
The death sword in the old man's hand, a pure black blade symbolizing death, shot out silently like a venomous dragon emerging from its lair.
This sword strike leaves no chance of survival, only the purest annihilation, end, and nothingness!
The sword light was as black as ink, seemingly capable of swallowing all light.
Where the sword's edge passed, space seemed to collapse and wither, vegetation instantly turned to ashes, and even sound was completely swallowed up, carrying a terrifying implication that would drag all living beings into an abyss of eternal silence!
"Young man, your swordsmanship is so pure that I am ashamed to admit my inferiority, but it still falls short of true death and annihilation!"
His words were filled with admiration, but the sword in his hand moved even faster.
This sword strike was faster than thought, and more ruthless than any other, aimed directly at Li Xijun's sea of consciousness, intending to completely extinguish all his life force!
The shadow of death instantly enveloped Li Xijun completely!
The Death Sword unleashed by a second-level Outer Realm expert, drawing upon the spiritual energy of the outer world, is far superior to the sword from before!
Faced with such a sword strike...
Having just broken through his opponent's sword, Li Xijun's aura surged even more fiercely.
The moment he received the certificate, his understanding of the "Azure Dragon Wood Longevity Technique" and his control over the vitality of heaven and earth when he broke through to the level of a celestial being instantly surfaced in his mind.
Instead of retreating, he advanced, even more fiercely thrusting his sword at the powerful outsider before him.
Outdoor Killer Move: Azure Emperor's Heavenly Evolution!
"roar!"
A dragon's roar that resounded throughout the city erupted.
A beam of azure sword light, imbued with boundless creative and transformative power, flew from the sword in his hand.
Between heaven and earth, countless phantom images of sprouting grass and trees and the growth of all things seemed to block the sword of annihilation!
The deathly aura relentlessly eroded and annihilated life; wherever it passed, the illusory plants and trees within the light shield withered and died.
Meanwhile, a vast expanse of vibrant green life surged forth, continuously dispelling the deathly chill, and new, tenacious buds sprouted anew from the withered places.
At this moment, the forces of life and death formed the most obvious cycle and collision!
"boom!"
The two sword lights finally exploded in the continuous collision, scattering like countless rays of light, like fireworks in full bloom, a beautiful sight. The north gate of the city swayed and finally could not support itself, collapsing with a crash, raising countless clouds of dust.
"puff!"
Li Xijun was blasted backward by the remaining force of the enemy.
He trembled violently, almost in mid-air, as if crushed by a mountain; his face instantly turned ashen white.
He couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of scalding blood, and staggered backward.
Each step left deep footprints on the ground, clearly indicating that the body had been injured.
But in the end, he used this Azure Emperor Evolution to block the Annihilation Death Sword, a move that was meant to kill a powerful second-level Outer Realm cultivator with all his might!
quiet!
At this moment, even on this battlefield of outdoor confrontation, there was a brief silence!
Zhao Longcheng and Fairy Muyue, who were currently fighting, and even Jing Wuming, who had just made his move,
Their eyes simultaneously shone with disbelief!
He first used extreme slaughter to break through the net of life, and then used the Azure Emperor's Heavenly Derivation to withstand the Annihilation Death Sword...
These two completely opposite sword intents, both reaching extremely high levels, actually appeared simultaneously on a four-aperture boy.
"He...he really isn't the Holy Son secretly being cultivated by the Life and Death Sword Sect?!"
An absurd yet incredibly impactful thought uncontrollably arose simultaneously in the minds of the three powerful beings at the outer realm!
"Such talent and virtue...is a rare find throughout history!"
"Alas... alas, they are not of use to our sect! What a pity! What a lament!"
The withered old man let out a hoarse roar, his voice filled with pain and determination. His emaciated body suddenly trembled violently, and the life and death energies that had been flowing in balance around him instantly became extremely violent, surging wildly into the black and white swords in his hands.
The two swords clashed, producing a sword cry that pierced through the soul and space!
A terrifying sword wheel, half black and half white, constantly rotating, seemingly capable of obliterating everything and ending all existence, appeared out of thin air!
—The Heavenly Cycle of Life and Death!
The moment this sword was unleashed, the world lost its color, and the wind and clouds swirled!
Even the strange phenomena caused by the battle between Zhao Longcheng and Fairy Muyue were temporarily suppressed.
Even Fairy Muyue, who was several minor realms higher than Jing Wuming, couldn't help but dodge in time.
Zhao Longcheng's expression changed drastically, but in order to avoid destroying the city, the two of them had already taken to the air and moved far away from the city gate during their battle with Fairy Muyue. He couldn't catch up in time.
At this moment, Li Xijun experienced for the first time the instinctive warning of his soul and body when facing death.
Li Xijun felt an unprecedented, truly deadly crisis!
He almost instinctively knew that he absolutely could not withstand that sword strike!
Any skill or artistic conception pales in comparison to this supreme sword technique unleashed by a powerful cultivator who drew upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth!
"Li Xijun, to die under the Boundless Cycle of Life and Death Sword Chapter, you are truly fortunate."
In the eyes of the withered old man, Li Xijun was already a dead man.
This sword strike, which does not penetrate the external world, will eventually turn even the most talented and unparalleled genius into a withered skeleton in a tomb.
Li Xijun, who truly experienced the power of an Outer Realm expert in a life-or-death battle, had a look of madness and excitement in his eyes.
"The Power of the White Dragon, open!"
