With the longsword in hand, Lu Qing's aura changed completely.
His previous nonchalant demeanor suddenly turned into one of chilling murderous intent.
He was like a drawn sword, possessing the power to cut through everything.
The longsword in his hand radiated an unparalleled sharpness, causing everyone to tremble in their hearts.
"A superior-grade spirit sword!"
Those present were all true disciples from major sects, and their knowledge was naturally extraordinary.
Sensing the terrifying sharpness of the longsword in Lu Qing's hand, they immediately realized that it was a spirit sword that had reached the level of a high-grade spiritual weapon!
What surprised them even more was that the sword intent emanating from Lu Qing was remarkably similar to that of Yu Jian.
That was clearly the core inheritance of the Breaking Heaven Sword Sect – the Breaking Heaven Sword Qi!
Could it be that this strange young man at the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage is a hidden hand planted by the Breaking Heaven Sword Sect?
Peach Fairy and Black Nether looked at Yu Jian with some surprise and uncertainty.
Even Qingxi couldn't help but turn her gaze to Yu Jian.
Then they saw that Yu Jian's face also showed surprise, but amidst the surprise, there was also a hint of realization, as if he had understood something.
"So the Azure Sword has fallen into A Qing's hands."
Inside the celestial palace, the old Azure Dragon and the others saw the long sword in Lu Qing's hand and suddenly realized what was going on.
"A high-grade spirit sword?"
When Mo Tu Shan saw the Azure Sword that Lu Qing had taken out, he was slightly surprised. He did not expect that the other party also had a high-grade spiritual weapon.
But soon, greed reappeared in his eyes.
As long as we can kill Lu Qing and seize the superior-grade spirit sword from him.
Then his trip to the Guixu Secret Realm this time can be considered extremely fruitful.
Even if one fails to pass through the physical passage and enter the celestial palace in the end, the trip will still be worthwhile.
"So that's how it is. No wonder you're so arrogant. It turns out you're relying on a top-grade spirit sword. Young man, thank you for bringing me my precious sword. I'll accept this generous gift!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Demon Slaughter Mountain transformed into a streak of black light, and under the shadow of the Demon Tower, he instantly arrived in front of Lu Qing and threw a punch.
With the blessing of a superior-grade demonic artifact, the omnipresent suppressive force of the Guixu Secret Realm seemed to be neutralized, allowing the speed of Demon Slaughter Mountain to soar to its limit.
It was even faster than the extreme speed that Lu Qing had displayed outside that day.
The power it exuded had already surpassed the limit of the eighth tribulation and reached a level comparable to the ninth tribulation primordial spirit!
The terrifying speed left Lu Qing unable to dodge in time, and he could only watch helplessly as Mo Tu Shan's fist slammed into his head.
Before the fist even landed on Lu Qing's face, a sinister smile appeared on Mo Tushan's face.
He could almost see Lu Qing's head being smashed by his punch.
However, the next moment, Mo Tu Shan sensed that something was wrong.
His fist struck Lu Qing's face, but found nothing, completely failing to register the impact.
The opponent's figure vanished like a bubble with that punch.
"What?!"
Mo Tushan was startled. In his spiritual perception, he had not noticed beforehand that there was a phantom in front of him.
"You're too slow."
Just then, Lu Qing's voice rang out from the side.
boom!
Before Mo Tushan could turn his head, a sword aura had already struck him.
This time, the phantom of the Demon Tower surrounding Demon Slaughter Mountain was bombarded by Lu Qing's sword energy.
First it shook violently, then it exploded with a bang.
"impossible!"
Mo Tushan's eyes widened, even though Lu Qing's sword energy shattered after breaking through the phantom of the Demon Tower.
But he still found it hard to accept the outcome.
The Nine Abyss Demon Tower is his strongest reliance now. Even a fully formed eighth-stage primordial spirit would find it difficult to shake its manifested phantom.
Now, he can't even withstand a single sword strike from Lu Qing!
With the blessing of a superior-grade spiritual sword, Lu Qing's sword energy has also surpassed the limit of the eighth tribulation and reached the realm of the ninth tribulation!
Swish!
Before Mo Tushan could react, Lu Qing swung his Azure Sword again.
A storm of sword energy swept towards Demon Slaughter Mountain.
Each sword aura was no less powerful than the previous sword strike.
In an instant, Demon Slaughter Mountain was surrounded by a terrifying storm of sword energy.
The powerful sword energy storm even forced the others to retreat repeatedly, until they reached a corner of the space, where they watched the scene with horror in their eyes.
How could it be so strong?
Hei Ming and Peach Fairy were shocked, unable to believe that Lu Qing's strength was so terrifying.
Even someone as powerful as Demon Mountain was completely outmatched.
It should be noted that even they felt a great threat from the Demon Slaughter Mountain after it activated that black magic tower.
Unexpectedly, he was directly suppressed by Lu Qing. The terrifying sword energy made both of them almost doubt whether Demon Slaughter Mountain had perished.
"Is that Demon Slaughter Mountain dead?" Qingxi couldn't help but ask.
"It's not that easy."
Although Yu Jian was also surprised by the strength Lu Qing displayed, he shook his head upon hearing this.
"The direct descendants of the Black and White Sect are not so easy to kill. The evil arts they cultivate place great emphasis on physical training, making them incredibly resilient. If you can't kill them completely in an instant, they will recover quickly, even if they only have a moment to catch their breath. They are very troublesome."
"roar!"
As if to confirm Yu Jian's words, a roar rang out, and a demonic tower suddenly shot into the sky, rapidly expanding and shattering all the sword energy that Lu Qing had unleashed.
Immediately afterwards, a figure as large as a small mountain emerged from the swirling sword energy; it was none other than Demon Slaughter Mountain.
At this moment, Demon Slaughter Mountain transformed into a giant over ten zhang tall.
Although it had some terrible wounds on its body, they healed rapidly thanks to its powerful vitality.
He held a huge black magic tower in his right hand, and thick black energy swirled around him like black dragons, making him look extremely powerful.
The humanoid skeletons that the demonic energy occasionally conjured added a touch of evil to its already formidable power.
"Boy, you've really angered me, forcing me to resort to this tactic. I won't be satisfied until I devour you alive!"
Mo Tu Shan stared at Lu Qing with venomous resentment.
His dark demonic body cannot be used at will, because each use requires a large amount of the blood essence of the wronged souls that he has painstakingly collected.
He originally intended to use the large amount of vengeful spirits' blood and essence he collected to break through to the ninth tribulation of the primordial spirit.
Now that Lu Qing has forced him to use it ahead of schedule, his breakthrough time will be greatly delayed, which makes Mo Tushan hate him.
As soon as he finished speaking, he took the initiative this time, grabbing the huge black nine-story demon tower in his hand and pressing it down on Lu Qing from top to bottom.
This attack was incredibly powerful, even causing subtle fluctuations in the space of the ninth level, almost reaching the peak of the ninth tribulation of the primordial spirit.
The terrifying spatial suppression force descended upon Lu Qing, as if to completely seal him in place.
"Oh no! Defend immediately!"
Sensing the power of Demon Slaughter Mountain's attack, Yu Jian and the others all changed their expressions drastically.
Even those in the corners of the space used their respective protective techniques and magical treasures to protect themselves.
Otherwise, once the Demon Slaughter Mountain's attack lands completely, they will likely be significantly affected.
"Can that fellow Daoist stop them?"
While using their protective magic items, the group kept their eyes fixed on what lay ahead.
The move that Mo Tu Shan used had extremely strong sealing power and was very effective at suppressing Lu Qing's speed.
In addition, the area is extremely wide, so there is probably no way to avoid it; the only option is to take it head-on.
But even they had no confidence in surviving such a terrifying attack.
As a sword cultivator, Lu Qing's swordsmanship is undoubtedly powerful, making him unparalleled in offense, but his defense is not so certain.
Therefore, no one can guarantee whether he will survive this attack.
"Prepare to rescue them!"
Even the old Azure Dragons in the Celestial Palace were on tenterhooks.
A surge of powerful laws coursed through his body, ready to rescue Lu Qing at any moment.
It sounds complicated, but in reality, everything happens in the blink of an eye.
Enraged by the demon's rampage, he transformed into a giant, wielding a black demon tower to suppress Lu Qing.
Then, everyone casts protective spells, or the old Azure Dragon and the others prepare to rescue people.
Everything happens in the blink of an eye.
Under the watchful eyes of all, the enormous black magic tower pressed down on Lu Qing with the force of a falling star.
Then they witnessed a scene they would never forget.
Facing the black magic tower that seemed to collapse like a mountain of demons, Lu Qing remained calm, simply extending one palm and gently lifting it upwards.
In the next instant, the shadow of the black magic tower had completely enveloped him.
boom!
Its immense power, enough to shatter even ordinary Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, swept across the entire seventh level space.
It even caused ripples in the surrounding space, which shows how terrifying this attack was.
If Yu Jian and the others hadn't been both Eight Tribulation Nascent Soul experts and hadn't used protective techniques beforehand...
They're likely to be seriously injured by this attack.
"The power of Demon Slaughter Mountain when it unleashes its full strength is truly terrifying!"
Yu Jian and the others were all horrified.
Honestly, if they were to face Demon Slaughter Mountain in his current state, they would probably have no choice but to temporarily avoid his sharp edge, as they would find it difficult to confront him.
This means that the trial passage was set up by the Dao Transformation Immortal; otherwise, it would have collapsed completely long ago under such powerful forces.
"Is that kid dead?"
After the power storm subsided, this was the second thought that came to everyone's mind.
Then, when they looked straight ahead, they couldn't help but widen their eyes in surprise.
Ahead, Demon Slaughter Mountain held the black magic tower, still maintaining its downward suppressive posture.
However, Lu Qing was not completely suppressed beneath that demonic tower.
Instead, he remained standing in the same spot.
The reason it wasn't crushed was because the hand he raised was steadily supporting the edge of the black magic tower, preventing it from falling completely.
"How is this possible?"
Everyone stared in disbelief at the scene.
No one expected that Lu Qing would hold up the terrifying black magic tower, which was the size of a small mountain, with just one palm.
The scene was so awe-inspiring, it was as if an ant had overturned a dragon.
"That's impossible!"
The most unacceptable one was naturally Demon Slaughter Mountain.
His face showed disbelief, he couldn't believe that his strongest attack had been caught by Lu Qing with one hand.
No matter how much he activated the power of the magic tower, he could not suppress it even slightly.
The opponent's arm was like a pillar supporting the sky, completely unshakable!
"As expected, a magic weapon that is not fully refined is still somewhat lacking."
A supernatural power was surging within Lu Qing's body, empowering him with boundless strength.
He sheathed the Azure Sword in his hand.
Over the years, he has never been able to find the time to fully refine and completely control this superior-grade spirit sword.
The power it unleashed was indeed insufficient to kill the powerful demonic Demon Mountain.
Since that's the case...
Lu Qing raised his hand and moved the black magic tower above his head a little to meet Mo Tu Shan's gaze.
"I almost forgot, you're taking the physical test. It seems your demonic body is your greatest asset."
"You arrogant scoundrel!"
Looking at Lu Qing's indifferent gaze, Mo Tushan felt a chill creep up from the bottom of his heart.
But he quickly dismissed the chill and flew into a rage again.
How could someone as accomplished as the Eight Tribulations of the Primordial Spirit, and the most outstanding disciple of the Black and White Sect in this generation, possibly show fear to a mere rat?
Immediately, he raised the Demon Tower again and slammed it down on Lu Qing.
He simply couldn't believe that this kid could withstand his bombardment indefinitely!
However, this time, the Demon Tower of Demon Slaughter Mountain only fell halfway before it suddenly froze and could no longer move.
The reason is simple: the black magic tower was being held in place by two fingers.
These two fingers alone are already thicker than the arm of Demon Slaughter Mountain.
Mo Tushan's body stiffened, his eyes widened as he stared ahead, his eyes trembling, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.
Suddenly, a figure much larger than himself appeared and stood before him.
He gently pinched the magic tower in his hand with two fingers, as if he were squeezing a toy.
"I can see you're very confident in your demonic body." Lu Qingtian's voice, as thunderous as a thunderclap, seemed to descend from the heavens. "Then I'll use your most proficient power to send you on your way."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Tu Shan felt an unparalleled power come from him, snatching the demon tower from his hands.
Immediately afterwards, he felt a dark shadow envelop him.
Looking up, he saw a hand dozens of times the size of his body, pressing down on him from above.
"No!"
An overwhelming sense of impending death enveloped Mo Tu Shan's heart.
A look of terror crossed his face. Under the powerful threat of death, the demonic energy around his body surged desperately as he tried to retreat.
However, as the giant hand descended, it also suppressed the space around him.
This rendered him completely immobile, just as he had done to Lu Qing before.
Mo Tushan could only watch in despair as Lu Qing's palm pressed down on his head.
boom!
With a single palm strike, the Demon Slaughter Mountain's massive body, as large as a small mountain, was struck, a powerful demonic entity that even ordinary spiritual weapons could hardly shake.
Under Lu Qing's palm strike, it was as fragile as an egg.
It was flattened by an immense force!
Boom!
An even more terrifying power erupted, sweeping across all directions.
This caused the protective techniques used by Yu Jian and the others to become shaky and on the verge of collapse, as if they were about to be destroyed at any moment.
A devastating force, akin to the apocalypse, swept through the entire seventh level. (End of Chapter)
