Take the second step!
This time, Yu Qingzi and the others died in front of Xuan Lingzi. He shattered the illusion with a single sword strike and returned to the canyon.
Take the third step!
Xuan Lingzi returned to the battlefield between the two clans a hundred years ago. At that time, he had not yet broken through the Spiritual Transformation Stage. The Heavenly Demon Lord led a million-strong demon army to attack, while Xuan Lingzi had less than ten thousand cultivators behind him. He alone and with a single sword, he killed tens of thousands of demon beasts.
Next, it’s step four, step five, step six…
Finally, Xuan Lingzi finally reached the pill. Without hesitation, he raised his hand to grab the pill, but a terrifying black wind blew past. Xuan Lingzi immediately withdrew his hand and stepped back, looking up at the dark shadow.
The black hurricane spun into a vortex, blocking the pill.
Xuan Lingzi cautiously held the Xuanling Sword across his body. He watched as the black wind swirled, the vortex growing larger and larger. Waves of powerful pressure surged through the canyon, shaking the mountain. The black wind seemed to engulf the heavens and earth, but when it touched the white light, it suddenly stopped.
Xuan Lingzi looked at the black wind vigilantly, and heard a dry voice.
"The human race...it's actually the human race!"
Xuan Lingzi looked at the black wind silently without saying a word.
"Why is it the human race, why not the demon race? You are a human, yes, you are a human. Human, do you want to get this elixir? Yes, you definitely want to get it. Then why should I give it to you? Yes, I absolutely don't want to give it to you. You humans are the most treacherous and untrustworthy."
Xuan Lingzi had already infused his spiritual power into the sword and was just waiting to attack.
The black-haired man was still muttering to himself, "You must be just like that human, only able to lie. Yes, you can lie too. We agreed to break the shackles together, to become immortals together, but he became immortal alone, leaving only us...only us... No! He killed us! He killed us! Human race! Human race!!!"
A sharp and piercing sound fell, and a black whirlwind rushed towards Xuan Lingzi madly!
This whirlwind contained earth-shaking demonic power. The black gas was the most terrifying venom, and the wind power became the sharpest attack. With these two methods working together, a deep bloody mark was left on Xuan Lingzi's arm, revealing the snow-white bones.
The venom seeped into his wound, preventing it from healing. Xuan Lingzi slapped it with his palm, and the wind from his palm completely cut away the flesh. The flesh fell to the ground, hissing twice before turning into a pool of black water.
Xuan Lingzi seemed oblivious to the pain. He narrowed his eyes slightly as he watched the scene unfold, raising his sword and charging forward. Golden sword light filled the Xuan Ling Sword, its vast righteous energy like a mountain, yet also like a sharp blade. As the sword thrust forward, it carried a tremendous force capable of piercing through anything, yet it only dispersed a tenth of the black vortex.
Heifeng roared angrily: "Human Race!!!"
Xuan Lingzi stomped his foot on the ground and rushed out.
The nine-petal golden lotus and the black vortex collided in this small canyon. Every collision could shake the heaven and earth, and every attack was enough to crush any cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage into powder.
This black vortex was truly the most formidable opponent Xuan Lingzi had ever encountered. Just one vortex possessed the power of a late-stage Spiritual Transformation Great Perfection! If it weren't for the opponent's brutal charging, Xuan Lingzi would have been defeated long ago.
Strangely enough, this earth-shattering battle between the two forces didn't damage a single blade of grass or tree in the canyon. Not even a single crack formed on the mountain wall, as if they were fighting in an alien world, unable to affect anything outside.
In this battle, the two sides were almost evenly matched.
As time passed, the black vortex grew more furious. This time, it furiously absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, crashing into Xuan Lingzi once again. However, Xuan Lingzi sighed softly, his finger slowly wiping across the sword. A faint golden light formed a talisman, which manifested on the sword.
Complex characters flickered faintly on the sword's blade, and the myriad rays of light converged, ultimately forming a delicate golden lotus. It was a small, seemingly frail and ordinary flower, but when it collided with the black vortex, it caused the latter to howl in pain.
The black vortex shouted incoherently, "You are Jiulian's disciple! I will kill you, the traitor! I will kill you, Jiulian!"
When Xuan Lingzi heard this, he paused slightly, but he still took the opportunity to take the pill.
The moment he grasped the pill, the black vortex suddenly dissipated, leaving only echoes of hatred and despair in the canyon. These voices were mingled with hatred and murderous intent, especially when he shouted the words "Nine Lotuses," which carried a hatred that seemed to want to cut the opponent into pieces.
This hatred goes deep into my bones, and my resentment soars to the sky!
Xuan Lingzi gazed with a heavy expression at the spot where the black vortex had vanished. Finally, he lowered his head to look at the pill, only to see a pair of hands suddenly covering the back of his hand. The fingers were slender and thin, white as jade, and the familiar warmth of their warmth made Xuan Lingzi suddenly startled, and he raised his head stiffly.
In this narrow canyon, a handsome monk with moist eyes stared at him intently. Xuan Lingzi had seen these eyes countless times. He rarely slept, but when he did, they would appear in his dreams.
In his early years, in dreams, the owner of these eyes would scold him for being "shameless and harboring dirty feelings for his own disciple." Sometimes, he would look at him with disgust, treating him like dust on the ground. Only very rarely would the owner of these eyes accept him and gently tell him, "Master, I am also attracted to you."
