Chapter 653: Ashes and Smoke, Demon Lord's Breath



As the star condensed again, it flashed and emitted sword light together with the other six huge stars.

Cang Jue's originally rampant smile completely froze.

He looked at the seven stars emitting sword light in disbelief, feeling the terrifying sword intent contained within, and suddenly a huge fear arose in his heart.

"Impossible! That move just now should be your strongest power. You can't possibly use a stronger move!"

Cang Jue stared at the seven bright stars and shouted madly.

"I've told you not to use your limited perspective to judge this world, you little devil. Feel for yourself what true despair is."

Lu Qingxu stood in the sky, like a god high above, looking down indifferently at Cang Jue who was almost kneeling down under the pressure.

Even though the mask blocked his expression, Cangjue could sense deep contempt in Lu Qing's eyes.

He was very familiar with that look.

Normally, this was the look in his eyes when he looked at the human slaves he kept in captivity.

But he never expected that one day, he, the son of the Demon Lord, would be looked at in such a way by a lowly human.

Incomparable humiliation filled Cang Jue's heart.

However, compared to the humiliation, the terrifying aura coming from the seven bright stars made him tremble even more.

Previously, the sword light transformed from a star alone had severely injured him. If it weren't for the Black Sky Demon Claw, he would probably have died on the spot.

Now seven stars fell at the same time, even though he was extremely confident in the Black Sky Demon Claw, his heart was still filled with fear.

Because he knew that what Lu Qing said was right. With his current strength, the power of the Black Sky Demon Claws he could exert was actually very limited.

When he refined this top-grade magic weapon, it was only with the help of his father that he was able to do it.

In order for him to be able to successfully master the Black Sky Demon Claw, his father even sealed the demon spirit within him, leaving only a trace of spiritual power to operate.

Otherwise, most demon spirits are unruly and will only accept masters who are stronger than themselves. He is only at the Demon Pill Realm, so how can he refine this top-grade magic weapon?

But there are also disadvantages to banning the evil spirit.

Without the help of the demon spirit, he could only rely on his own cultivation to activate the Black Sky Demon Claw, and its true power could not be fully exerted.

The bigger disadvantage is that in the current situation, even if he wants to let this top-grade magic weapon fight the enemy independently, he can't do it and can only fight it himself.

This is also the reason why Cang Jue was afraid, because he didn't know if he could withstand the power of Lu Qing's seven swords.

These changes happened in a flash.

Facing the fear revealed on Cangjue's face, Lu Qing's eyes did not fluctuate at all.

He pressed down lightly with his palm, and the next moment, the seven stars suddenly turned into seven sword lights, their auras connected to each other, forming a sword formation, which fell towards Cang Jue.

Seven star-like sword lights fell and formed a sword formation. The power increased by more than ten times compared to the previous single sword light.

Feeling this power that was like a real falling star, Cangjue's face changed instantly.

Boundless fear appeared on his face. Enveloped by the aura of death, he couldn't help but open his mouth and shout, "Mercy..."

However, before he could finish his words, there was a bang and a sword light that reached the sky lit up.

Everyone's vision was suddenly filled with sword light, and even the figures in the mysterious space could not see the situation inside for a while.

Cang Jue was completely submerged by the sword light that fell from the sky.

In just a moment, his body began to vaporize and disappear.

The black scales on his body were completely useless.

"ah!!"

The boundless pain made Cang Jue scream in pain.

But his screams only lasted for a few breaths before they subsided.

Finally, after more than ten breaths, the dazzling sword light slowly disappeared, revealing the situation within the area.

All the people and demons immediately looked towards where Cang Jue was.

Even the dozen or so figures in the mysterious space were no exception.

Then, when they saw the situation clearly, everyone's mouths opened wide.

I saw that Cang Jue was no longer where he had been originally.

There was only a black bone claw emitting a faint demonic aura floating there.

However, under Lu Qing's terrifying attack, it was completely destroyed and disappeared.

Even the trial jade talisman on his body was completely destroyed by Lu Qing's sword light.

"What a pity. I should have held back a little earlier."

Lu Qing felt a little sorry when he saw that nothing was left under his Seven Star Sword Formation except the top-grade magic weapon.

Cang Jue had quite a few trial jade talismans on him, and now they were destroyed, making all his efforts in vain.

However, Lu Qing only felt sorry for a moment and didn't care anymore.

If the trial jade talisman is destroyed, then it is destroyed. At worst, he can just go find other strong people to snatch it away later.

Shaking his head, Lu Qing's gaze fell on the top-grade magic weapon.

However, he did not immediately go forward to try to collect it, but first activated his supernatural powers and investigated it.

Just as Lu Qing was looking for information about the black bone claw, all the creatures watching this scene finally understood what was happening and immediately started an uproar.

"How, how is it possible that Lord Cang, Cang Jue was defeated by a human?"

"They didn't even leave behind a corpse, how could this human race be so powerful!"

"We're all done for now. Lord Cangjue was the most beloved son of the Devil Lord Jiemie. If he dies here, the Devil Lord Jiemie will be furious. We'll all be dead!"

"Run away!"

First, the group of demons, after realizing what had happened, all looked terrified and used their skills to try to escape.

But as soon as they moved, sword energy flashed by, like a fleeting light or shadow.

Dozens of demons seemed to be suppressed and froze in place.

The next moment, blood of various colors splattered all over the sky, and the bodies of dozens of demons broke into pieces and fell to the ground below.

Life has long been completely extinguished and the person is completely dead.

Lu Qing, who killed dozens of Jindan realm demons with one sword, didn't even raise his eyelids, his eyes still fixed on the black bone claw.

Seeing this scene, the man with the elephant trunk, who also wanted to escape, froze all over. After hesitating for a moment, he finally stayed where he was and did not move.

At this moment, he no longer had any intention of competing with Lu Qing.

He even began to doubt whether the mysterious man in front of him wearing a ghost mask was really in the Golden Core Realm?

Could it be some old monster with a primordial spirit who sneaked in by hiding his cultivation level?

Otherwise, he really couldn't imagine how someone with only the Jindan realm cultivation could perform such terrifying sword moves.

On the ground, Daoxu Guandaozi's expression was completely dazed.

The extremely powerful demon who possessed a top-grade magic weapon was actually killed by this mysterious man.

This was originally a great thing for him, and he should be grateful, after all, he managed to escape.

But at this moment, Daoxu Guandaozi felt only confusion in his heart.

Because the strength displayed by Lu Qing has completely exceeded his imagination. He never knew that the Golden Core Realm could be so strong.

Suddenly, another figure emerged in his mind.

That was Chen Qing, the man who had killed many souls in a battle at Tianshu Mountain more than ten years ago. His body was so powerful that he was like a demon.

And that person, back then, was also in the Golden Core Realm, and he was able to kill the soul. His incredible strength was even greater than that of the mysterious man today.

"Perhaps only that person could possibly be a match for the mysterious man in front of us."

An idea suddenly came to Daoxu Guandaozi's mind.

As for whether the mysterious man in front of him was Chen Qing, he had never even thought about it.

Back then, Chen Qing used the boundless strength of his physical body, which was strong enough to shake the space, to kill the primordial spirit.

The mysterious man in front of him was obviously an extremely powerful swordsman.

Moreover, the spiritual aura between the two is not similar at all, so it is impossible that they are the same person.

On the contrary, the appearance of two such monstrous Jindan realm masters in succession made the Taoist of Daoxu Temple wonder if there was something wrong with his own practice.

Otherwise, why is he so much weaker than others when they are both at the ninth level of the Golden Core?

"Cang Jue is actually dead?"

In the mysterious space, the more than ten figures were also extremely shocked when they saw the picture on the light screen.

None of them had expected that Cang Jue, who was protected by a top-grade magic weapon, would actually die under the attack of the boy with the ghost face mask.

"Even his body has been reduced to ashes. He is dead beyond death."

"Even a top-grade magic weapon couldn't protect him. How could that kid with the ghost mask be so strong?"

"Sword Dao Realm, what kind of Dao is this? Is there such a sword Dao inheritance in the Tianyuan World?"

"No, I have never heard that there is such a powerful sword tradition in the Tianyuan World!"

Immediately, a group of mysterious figures began to discuss what kind of Taoist magic Lu Qing had just performed.

Because they all felt that the power of the last sword move Lu Qing had just performed had completely exceeded the limit of the Jindan Realm and reached the level of the Yuanshen Realm.

Being able to allow the Golden Core Realm to unleash power comparable to that of the Primordial Spirit, this kind of Taoist magic is considered the most precious secret art even in their Netherworld Palace.

The mission points required for redemption are an enormous number.

At least none of them here have the accumulation to exchange.

So everyone was very shocked that Lu Qing could perform such Taoist magic.

"The last sword move this kid just performed seemed to have some resemblance to the core inheritance of Tianshu City, the [Seven Star Sword Formation]."

At this time, the formation master spoke again in a deep voice.

"It's just that the sword formation is similar, but the framework within it is the sword intent of the Sky-Breaking Sword Sect. Yet, the two are integrated so skillfully and perfectly that it's truly puzzling."

"The Seven Star Sword Formation and the Sky-Breaking Sword Sect's sword intent merged together. How could a mere Jindan-level cultivator like him accomplish such a feat?"

The other mysterious figures were a little bit unbelieving when they heard this.

Whether it is the Seven Star Sword Formation or the Heaven-Breaking Sword Intent, they are all inheritances left by top-level souls.

This kid with a ghost-face mask is just a small Jindan realm cultivator. How could he be able to perfectly integrate these two inheritances?

"Based on his realm and cultivation, it is naturally impossible for him to do such a thing. Even if he is an ordinary Yuan Shen realm, it is impossible.

So I suspect that this so-called sword art field should be the supreme Taoist art created by an equally powerful and supreme spiritual master who integrated the strengths of several schools.

In other words, this kid with the ghost mask is not as we previously suspected, a self-made man, and there is likely someone behind him."

The formation master analyzed in a deep voice.

After hearing his analysis, the other figures couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Yes, there must be someone behind this kid with a ghost mask.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain how he cultivated such strength that surpassed the limits of the Golden Core Realm.

"It seems that the reason this guy with the ghost mask came to participate in this trial was because of the instructions of the person behind him. I just don't know what that person's purpose is."

A mysterious figure said with some concern.

The person behind the ghost-faced masked kid, who was able to combine the Seven Star Sword Formation with the sword intent of the Sky-Breaking Sword Sect, must be an existence they could hardly imagine.

Such an existence is actually interested in the trial of their Nether Palace. The inside story is really intriguing.

"No matter what his purpose is, the calculations of such beings are naturally the concerns of the elders above. We just need to ensure that this trial can be successfully concluded. Other matters have nothing to do with us."

"That's right. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. All we have to do is do our job well."

The other figures spoke at this time.

They had no way of guessing what the supreme spirits were thinking, let alone daring to guess.

So the only thing we can do now is to do the job at hand well.

Therefore, they all turned their attention back to the light screen in front of them.

Seeing that Lu Qing was still staring at the black bone claw in the light curtain, everyone felt a strange feeling in their hearts.

"Could it be that this kid with the ghost mask wants to take this top-grade magic weapon? He's a human, what does he need a magic weapon for? He can't refine it!"

"It's hard to say. After all, this is a top-grade magic weapon, and its grade is equivalent to a top-grade spiritual weapon. Anyone would be tempted by it."

"The Devil Lord Jiemie must have placed a restriction on this magic weapon again. He won't be able to refine it."

"Speaking of which, if the Jiemie Demon Lord finds out that Cang Jue is dead, he'll probably go crazy."

"So what if he's crazy? Does he dare to rush to our Netherworld Palace to ask for punishment?"

"It's hard to say. That Devil Lord Jiemie is a madman himself. Have you forgotten what he did two thousand years ago?"

"No matter how crazy he is, his strength still counts. In front of our Nether Palace, even if he has the Seven Tribulations Soul, he wouldn't dare to act wild!"

"Look, what is that ghost-face masked kid doing?"

"He wants to destroy the Black Bone Claw? How is that possible!"

"Oh no, that black bone claw has mutated!"

"It's the aura of the Devil Lord of Extinction!"
