Ten miles outside Heishan Pass.
A figure flashed continuously, moving at an extremely fast speed through the mountains and forests.
This world is vast, but the speed of martial artists also advances rapidly with their cultivation level.
If one cultivates a movement technique of grade four or above, it is basically like a cultivator flying on a sword, with extremely high speed.
And that figure was none other than Li Ming.
His "Fleeting Glimpses" chapter on spiritual refinement is nearly complete, and with his stamina, his speed is naturally not slow.
The travel time was even shorter than he had expected.
Looking at the desolate forest ahead, Li Ming suddenly felt a sense of crisis, though not insignificant.
actually.
As he left Cangyang County, he could feel many eyes watching him.
He knew very well that these people might not be hostile, but they certainly had ill intentions.
The Six Doors can intimidate many people, but not everyone.
Among his enemies were quite a few ruthless and unscrupulous individuals.
Unexpectedly, before even leaving Cangzhou, they seemed to have encountered trouble.
"Come out, stop hiding!"
Li Ming stared intently, then stopped and stood outside the desolate forest.
He wasn't naive enough to realize that the other person was resting inside.
This place is the shortest road to Heishan Pass, and it is also a region rife with bandits.
Upon seeing Li Ming's face, Xing Qingqing, who was inside the desolate forest, was immediately filled with coldness and rushed out.
"Li Ming, give me back my son's life!"
A slender figure emerged from the desolate forest and roared at Li Ming.
Upon hearing this, Li Ming looked over and saw a beautiful woman dressed in a blue robe with a white jade hairpin in her hair. Judging from her appearance alone, she seemed to be only about thirty years old, a time when she possessed a unique charm.
However, the extremely ferocious expression on her face ruined her beauty.
"Your son is dead? What does that have to do with me?"
Li Ming said calmly.
For a moment, he really couldn't figure out who the other person was.
However, upon seeing the other party's interface, he seemed to have realized something.
"Stop playing dumb with me. Didn't you kill my son, Xing Wuming?"
Xing Qingqing's face was contorted with rage as she questioned him.
Upon hearing this, Li Ming confirmed the other party's identity; it turned out to be Xing Wuming's mother, an elder of the Qingyun Sword Sect.
I didn't expect the other party to have already broken through to the Divine Power Realm?
However, since the other party had come looking for trouble, Li Ming naturally wouldn't admit it.
Li Ming remained unmoved, staring directly at the other party, and said in a deep voice:
"Then you may have mistaken me for someone else. I don't know any Xing Wuming... Your Qingyun Sword Sect should think this through. Can you bear the responsibility for attacking an official of the imperial court without cause?"
All I know is that you're blocking my way... Are you looking for death?
Li Ming's tone was cold, and his expression showed no fear whatsoever, as if he didn't take the other party seriously at all.
That sharp retort seemed to freeze time.
Only a gust of cold wind swept through the air, making Li Ming's hair disheveled.
Although the other party came prepared, he remained calm.
He could clearly sense the presence of the dozen or so people lying in ambush in the woods, but none of them seemed to possess any particularly strong aura.
However, Li Ming always had a vague sense of crisis in his heart, which made him very vigilant.
But his expression remained as steady as a rock, showing no sign of anything amiss.
"If it wasn't you... then who else could it be!"
I'll make you pay with your life!
Xing Qingqing shouted out the last four words one by one, her eyes filled with murderous intent.
This handsome young man in front of her killed her only son.
She nurtured Xing Wuming with many resources, hoping that her son would grow up and take revenge on Xie Xuan. Unexpectedly, she died young while away from home.
Subsequently, a group of Qingyun Sword Sect warriors emerged from the forest. The weakest among them was close to the Refining Spirit Realm, and sword cultivators possessed extremely strong offensive capabilities. When they set up a sword formation, it could also play a significant role.
"Arrogant and conceited! Li Ming, I know you are highly skilled and have a record of killing martial artists with supernatural powers, but so what?"
"Do you really think the Qingyun Sword Sect is someone to be trifled with?"
Ye Xiu stared intently at Li Ming, his demeanor imposing and his voice stern.
The Qingyun Sword Sect warriors behind him were quick to act, forming a battle formation and glaring angrily at Li Ming, seemingly about to make their move.
"If you surrender, we'll send you to Qingyun..."
Before Ye Xiu could finish speaking, Li Ming interrupted him directly:
"Enough with the nonsense. Are you all planning to die with this crazy woman?"
"I'll grant your wish!"
Li Ming's tone was extremely impatient. To be honest, the strength of the people in front of him was really not up to par. Even the pressure that Chu Tongshen put on him far exceeded that of these people.
Do these people really think that having more people means they're more useful?
You're overthinking it.
Quantitative change may lead to qualitative change, but it is by no means something that can be caused by just a few people.
He was just a little worried that the other party might be hiding some strength.
However, it seems that these are the only people left.
Upon hearing Li Ming's words, Ye Xiu was immediately taken aback, his expression changed, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
They originally intended to use their numerical advantage to intimidate Li Ming.
It seems that
Li Ming clearly doesn't take them seriously at all.
He admitted that Li Ming was quite skilled, strong enough to even kill a Grandmaster of Supernatural Powers!
But they are not useless either. This time, with two grandmasters of supernatural powers in charge, plus sixteen experts forming two nine-person sword formations, their combat power can be greatly enhanced!
"Form ranks!"
Ye Xiu let out a low shout, and the two longswords he was carrying were instantly drawn from their sheaths.
One floated behind me, while the other was held in my hand.
"good!"
The others immediately responded, drawing their longswords and sending sword energy scattering across the sky.
This sword formation is a simplified version of the Qingyun Sword Sect's signature sword formation.
The prototype requires ninety-nine grandmasters, with nine supernatural martial artists as the core, capable of slaying a martial saint!
With one expert at the Divine Power Realm as the core and the other eight Grandmasters as the foundation, they can unleash power far exceeding that of ordinary experts at the Divine Power Realm.
As the sword formation was established, streaks of sword energy enveloped the void, instantly surrounding Li Ming.
Feeling the immense power he could command, Ye Xiu was filled with confidence and shouted:
"Li Ming, do you recognize this formation?"
Li Ming stood with his hands behind his back, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes. He had to admit, this thing seemed to have something special about it.
He hadn't taken the opponent's aura seriously before, but now it had become even stronger than Chu Tongshen's before.
Of course, that was Chu Tongshen without using his supernatural powers.
"Not bad... but that's about it."
Li Ming smiled.
This kind of formation, which is not set up with any special artifacts, is just a simple combined attack formation and is not perfect.
In the most ideal situation, it would naturally be necessary to use some array artifacts to perform the operation.
It would be truly extraordinary if it were performed by martial artists who were all at the Divine Power Realm, and they had mastered a combined attack technique.
However, the combined attack formation of these nine people can be considered a secret technique. It not only greatly increases the power of the attacks, but also reduces the damage received by the person at the core of the formation.
It sounds incredibly powerful.
However, in actual combat, it is impossible to be invincible.
After all, it wasn't just one person taking the brunt of his attack; it was nine people sharing the burden!
Can someone who is weak really withstand a single blow from him?
"Since you're courting death!"
boom!
In an instant, the earth trembled and air surged.
Only a long roar echoed through the heavens and earth. Li Ming exerted his strength with his feet, and the powerful force at its peak instantly erupted, seemingly about to shatter the earth!
"Then I... will grant your wish!"
