Chapter 220: Upper Realm Grand Sage's Attack! The Heaven-Opening Seal's Perfection!
Chapter 220: Upper Realm Grand Sage's Attack! The Heaven-Opening Seal's Perfection!
Great Jin, Xuanzhou.
A crimson aura of blood permeated the heavens and earth.
Swish!!
A silver light flickered, and faintly, a dragon's roar could be heard.
Then, a long spear appeared, piercing through the air like a dragon, unstoppable, and piercing through the crowd of demons.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In an instant, demons exploded one after another.
Boom!
Finally, a large demon, as big as a small hill, crashed to the ground.
"Lord Li!"
As the demons were annihilated, a deputy general immediately stepped forward and spoke respectfully.
There stood a young man wearing black lacquered armor with a flowing mountain pattern, holding a silver-white spear as tall as himself.
Crimson bloodstains slid down his armor, but he didn't look disheveled; instead, he exuded a more commanding presence.
"Hmm."
The young man nodded, then sheathed his spear and walked towards the area outside the Demon Mountain.
"How many demons are left in Xuanzhou?"
At the same time, he calmly asked.
The deputy general followed closely behind the young man and immediately replied, "Reporting to Lord Li, "The demons in Xuanzhou have basically been eliminated."
Upon hearing this, the young man's figure paused slightly.
After a few moments of silence, the young man spoke again, "Then let's head back."
"Okay."
The deputy general nodded and waved towards the surrounding area.
In an instant, the demon slayers around them sheathed their weapons and quickly departed.
The young man also stepped out of the Demon Mountain and mounted a dragon horse. He tightened the reins, squeezed his legs, and instantly charged forward.
Martial Saint! Martial Saint!
In the young man's eyes, there was a mix of unwillingness and urgency.
As the most promising Martial Saint genius of the Li family's current generation.
His life up until now had been smooth and successful, beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Born into a Martial Saint family, he had the protection of a Martial Saint ancestor.
He himself was also gifted in martial arts, and at an early age, he had become an unparalleled Grand Master with perfect essence, qi, and spirit.
Moreover, the National Guardian Martial Saint from the capital had prophesied that he possessed the potential to become a Martial Saint!
He could have taken a steady and gradual approach, making slow progress until he finally grasped that hint of mystery and successfully advanced to the Martial Saint realm.
But all of this changed due to the demon disaster in Yanzhou.
The Martial Saint ancestor fought valiantly but perished, and the Li family completely lost the protection of the National Guardian Martial Saint.
Without a Martial Saint, the Martial Saint family became like a piece of fresh meat, attracting the covetous gazes of countless evil wolves.
Even though the Li family had already weighed the situation and made concessions, they couldn't avoid the greed of human nature.
Therefore, he needed to advance to the Martial Saint realm as soon as possible!
Only by becoming a Martial Saint could he protect the Li family once again, preventing it from being divided by the wolves and preserving the dignity of the Martial Saint family!
Half a day later, the dragon horse arrived at a majestic city.
His figure appeared in the National Guardian Martial Saint's mansion.
Following the path, he made his way deep into the mansion and reached a quiet courtyard.
In his gaze, an elderly man with silver hair sat casually on a stone bench, brewing and slowly sipping tea.
"You're back?"
The silver-haired man turned to him and smiled, speaking softly.
"Li Qinglang pays his respects to Su Zhen Guo!"
The young man clasped his hands together in a respectful greeting.
In order to break through to the Martial Saint realm quickly, he had tried various methods, but none had shown any results.
So he recalled something he had read in an ancient book—within the crisis of life and death lies great peril and great opportunity.
Therefore, he had come directly to Xuanzhou, obtained the approval of the Su family ancestor, and attempted to clear the demons in the entire province, hoping to gain enlightenment and find the opportunity to advance during this life-and-death crisis.
Unfortunately, even after clearing all the demons in the province, there was still no sign of advancement.
The Su family ancestor nodded and then gestured for the young man to sit in front of him.
As a descendant of an old friend and with exceptional talent, he deserved some attention.
He picked up the teapot, poured a full cup of tea, and pushed it towards the young man.
Then he sighed softly, "The path to becoming a Martial Saint cannot be forced."
Upon hearing these words, Li Qinglang's expression darkened.
However, he quickly regained his composure, and he continued, deep kiss. "The one in the Martial Saint realm's embrace.
"I, Li Qinglang, may not be as talented as him, but I firmly believe that the path to becoming a Martial Saint is not truly unattainable!"
"I have the spirit root, and I don't lack spirit energy pills. I just need the opportunity!"
Li Qinglang's voice was slightly excited.
As one of the three most promising candidates to advance to the Martial Saint realm in this generation and a member of a Martial Saint family, he naturally knew some things.
The Su family ancestor didn't refute but smiled and nodded, "Having this determination is excellent!"
However, he immediately added, "But the one in Qingzhou is a true Martial Immortal reincarnation; ordinary people cannot be compared to him."
Recalling the scene he had witnessed at the Great Martial Academy in the capital, the Su family ancestor's eyes still held a sense of awe.
Three Intermediate Martial Saints, killing as if slaughtering pigs!
Such power!
Various thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.
Then he raised his head and looked at the young man before him, pondering for a moment before speaking, "I will go and have a word with the Li family. You don't need to be so anxious."
Becoming a Martial Saint wasn't something that could be achieved overnight, nor was it something that could be forced through impatience.
He had already seen that the young man, a descendant of an old friend, had become stubborn, and if he continued like this, he might fall into a state of madness.
Upon hearing this, Li Qinglang lowered his head, and a look of struggle flashed in his eyes.
After a few breaths, he lifted his head and looked at the Su Clan Ancestor across from him. "I want to leave the Great Jin Dynasty and go to the Demon Den. I want to emulate the one from Qingzhou and achieve enlightenment through slaying demons!"
Hearing his words, the Su Clan Ancestor let out a soft sigh.
The one from Qingzhou could be said to be the most talented in martial arts since the establishment of the Great Jin Dynasty!
Who could compare to that? He was about to open his mouth to dissuade him.
But just at that moment, a clear and cold female voice suddenly rang out, "Achieve enlightenment through slaying demons?"
The Su Clan Ancestor's eyes immediately focused, and his aura burst forth, soaring into the sky!
Boom!!
The thick aura instantly swept through the surroundings.
A seven-foot-long sword was gripped in his palm.
At the same time, he took a step forward and instantly slashed at a streak of radiant light that rushed towards him.
Bang!
The radiant light exploded, revealing a crimson golden feather.
The Su Clan Ancestor's figure, however, suddenly turned into a black shadow and flew backward!
All of this happened in an instant, within a fleeting moment.
Li Qinglang finally reacted and turned to look in the direction of the cold female voice.
In the distance, a man and a woman stood tall, their figures imposing and their clothing luxurious, exuding an extraordinary aura.
In the woman's hand, her long and slender white fingers held several crimson golden feathers.
"Achieve enlightenment through slaying demons?"
"I'll kill you first, you arrogant and ignorant brat!"
The woman's face was cold, and the crimson golden feathers in her hand suddenly transformed into a streak of radiant light, shooting towards Li Qinglang in an instant.
Swish!
A sword light approached, shattering the feathers.
"Run! Go to Qingzhou for help!!"
At the same time, a voice of urgency echoed in his mind.
Li Qinglang reacted and immediately used his light body technique to escape quickly.
Demonic Great Saint!!
A Demonic Great Saint has entered the borders!!
His heart trembled even more, and his actions became faster.
At the original spot, the Su Clan Ancestor's figure holding the long sword appeared again.
But at this moment, blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and his aura weakened; he had suffered a severe injury in just one strike!
Only an Upper Realm Grand Saint could do this!
The Su Clan Ancestor forcibly suppressed the chaos in his mind and tried to remain calm.
"You two, coming to the Great Jin Dynasty without reason, are you not afraid you won't be able to leave?"
His gaze fixed on the man and woman across from him, and he spoke in a cold, low voice.
"Hmph!"
The woman snorted, and her eyes turned cold. "Today, I'll kill ten saints and destroy ten provinces!"
"The Great Jin Dynasty... can't stop me!"
Then...
Boom!
Violent demon aura instantly soared into the sky!
The ground began to shake violently! Boom!
The raging demon aura and sword aura crisscrossed in the air.
Feeling the commotion behind him, Li Qinglang's mind was filled with only one thought at this moment.
Run!
Run fast!
That man and woman, with just a casual move, could send the Su Clan Ancestor, a Middle Realm Martial Saint, flying backward!
Upper Realm Grand Saint!
That man and woman were definitely Upper Realm Martial Saints! Driven by a strong survival instinct, he pushed his light body technique to the extreme.
The Su Clan Ancestor was no match for two Upper Realm Grand Demons. He must seek help as soon as possible!
Otherwise, the Great Jin Dynasty would be in danger!
Go to the Capital City!
No, that's not right!
The Su Clan Ancestor just said to go to Qingzhou?!
Is there an existence there that can suppress an Upper Realm Grand Saint?
As these thoughts raced through his mind, he suddenly realized that the commotion behind him had subsided!
So fast!!
The Su Clan Ancestor lost so quickly?!
Before he could think further,
Swish!
A streak of radiant light suddenly appeared in the distance and then, with unstoppable force, pierced through his body.
Boom!
The radiant light pierced through and then fiercely embedded itself into the ground not far away, creating a deep pit.
Li Qinglang saw that it was a fragment of a long sword.
It seemed to be the Su Clan Ancestor's sword! Blood flowed from the wound as if it were worthless.
Feeling his life force rapidly fading within his body,
At this moment, he desperately wished he were a National Guardian Saint.
Then, he wouldn't have to flee in such a sorry state.
Martial Saint! Martial Saint!
His vision gradually darkened, and his entire body swayed.
But he still staggered forward, constantly running, muttering, "Martial Saint! Martial Saint..."
After a few breaths, he could no longer control his body and fell to the ground.
Just before his consciousness completely faded, he felt the ground shake beneath him, as if someone had landed in front of him.
Immediately after, a mocking voice filled his ears, "Achieve enlightenment through slaying demons? You don't know how to stay alive!"
Bang!
His consciousness plunged into complete darkness.
Boom!!
The massive demon body fell to the ground, causing the earth to shake.
Qin Zheng withdrew his hand and then reached out to collect the demon core.
A strand of his consciousness entered his mind, focusing on the numbers accumulated on the merit scroll.
"Enhance Martial Arts - Chaos Origin Heaven Opening Seal."
He silently recited this in his mind.
Buzz!
The merit scroll trembled slightly.
An invisible force appeared out of thin air, flowing into his primordial spirit like a stream.
Then...
One by one, the energy points lit up like stars, radiating a dazzling light.
After a while...
Buzz!
The last star-like energy point lit up.
A thick aura of creating heaven and earth instantly emanated from his primordial spirit.
The Chaos Origin Heaven Opening Seal was perfected, composed of one hundred and eight energy points.
