In a dense forest far away from the back mountain.
Xu Qi'an was sitting under a tree with half a bronze mirror in his hand.
The mirror reflected the intense battle that was taking place at the scene.
"Wasn't Jingyuan's eyes blinded by my poison? How did he recover? He doesn't have the ability to regenerate his flesh and blood, he should have used some pills or some special method … …
"There are no enemies hiding in the War Hounds Mountain and the military town was not attacked. Did Xu Pingfeng really only send Ji Xuan and the others to attack the Wulin League?
"… … Xiao Yuenu and Liu Hongmian seem to have a grudge? How could such a beautiful woman be taken advantage of by the tiger spirit. That's right, could Li Lingsu's lover be Xiao Yuenu?
"Tsk tsk, if it's true, then among the holy son's lovers, there is finally one that can compare to the little fishes in my fish pond.
"I wonder how Li Lingsu is doing."
… …
Tearing apart the connection between them … … Alliance Master plans to use human wave tactics?
The fourth grade martial artists present were all experienced and immediately understood Cao Qingyang's meaning.
Facing an enemy with explosive power comparable to a third grade martial artist, using human wave tactics meant that any one of them would die.
Cao Qingyang said in a deep voice:
"Dai Zong, you go take the lead!"
Shen Xing Sect Master's scalp went numb as he responded. His movement technique was agile and elegant, like a leaf dancing in the wind, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right.
"Amitabha, repent and you will be saved!"
At this time, Jing Xin put his palms together and chanted.
Along with the sound of compassion, there was also the power of the commandment.
Shen Xing Sect Master's graceful movement technique suddenly stopped. In front of the enemy, he found it hard to resist and turned around, giving his back to the enemy.
In the same realm, the control of the commandment was very short. The moment Shen Xing Sect Master turned around, he had already escaped.
But at this time, Dongfang Wanqing was as light as a kite as she floated above Shen Xing Sect Master's head and gently pressed her palm down.
Immortal Caress!
At this critical moment, Han Xie of the Thousand Machines Sect threw out a whip and wrapped it around Shen Xing Sect Master's waist. With a shake of his hand, he pulled him back.
Bang!
The palm hit the ground and with a rumble, a ten feet wide hole appeared.
Dai Zong, who had barely escaped danger, did not even have time to heave a sigh of relief when he suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing.
The one-armed white tiger was like a ghost in the wind, appearing in front of Shen Xing Sect Master who had just regained his balance and punched.
Thump, thump, thump … Fu Jingmen dashed out and collided head-on with White Tiger's fist.
Peng! Bang! Fu Jingmen rushed out and punched the white tiger.
The two of them retreated half a step at the same time. Fu Jingmen gritted his teeth and stomped his right foot, forcefully diverting the force. His fist intent erupted, and in an instant, he punched White Tiger's chest dozens of times.
The one-armed white tiger found it hard to parry the opponent's punches and was forced to retreat.
Suddenly, Fu Jingmen sensed an intense killing intent coming from the side. A martial artist's instinct for danger was to warn him.
He decisively took a step back and gave up on chasing after the white tiger. Instead, he threw a punch to the side.
At the same time, he saw the enemy who attacked him. It was a leopard lurking in the grass.
"Yi?"
Fu Jingmen was stunned. If it was a leopard, he did not need to care.
But the blood-thirsty killing intent and White tiger's reaction to danger made him think that the opponent was an expert of the same realm.
A mere leopard had the guts to attack him?
It was illogical.
The white tiger took the chance to retreat, breathing in and out to calm the pain in his chest.
"Heart Gu Master?"
White Crane Monastery's monastery head examined the Joy Begging Pill Fragrance.
The Joy Begging Pill Fragrance screeched and a formless sound wave spread across the mountain.
A few seconds later, everyone present heard a noisy and chaotic sound. There was the rustling of countless bushes, the flapping of the wings of a large flock of birds, the cries of apes, and the roars of large insects …
In the sky, dozens of wild birds formed a flock, circling and singing. Occasionally, they would dive down towards the Wulin League, pretending to attack before flying high again.
Every time the flock of birds pretended to attack, the Wulin League would receive Martial Intuition's feedback to danger.
Venomous snakes and insects emerged from the bushes one after another. Apes, leopards, wild boars, large insects, and other wild beasts emerged from the forest, glaring at the members of Martial Union like tigers watching their prey.
They surrounded but did not attack, only venting their hostility.
Hence, the martial artists of Martial Union received wave after wave of hostility. The early warning of danger that they had honed through the Refined Spirit Realm had instead become a burden.
The Joy Begging Pill Fragrance said:
"To me, it is too easy to deal with a martial artist's warning to danger.
"Without the instinct to predict danger, how can you fight with an expert of the same realm?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Hongmian's skirt fluttered in the wind, and her bell-like laughter echoed in the air.
"Senior sister, back then you colluded with men outside, spreading rumors and tarnishing my reputation.
"Junior Sister will never forget your great kindness. How about I repay you today?"
She pulled out the soft sword from her waist and stabbed at Xiao Yuenu across the distance of dozens of feet.
Xiao Yuenu did not panic. She took out the small exquisite sword from her sleeve. "Dang dang …" Sparks flew everywhere as the two beauties fought fiercely.
"Master Xiao, let me help you!"
Tie Yi Hall's You Shi ran with big steps, causing a slight earthquake. He jumped high and threw himself at Liu Hongmian like a stone.
From the side, a golden light shot out and hit You Shi.
It was the Martial Monk Jing Yuan.
The two martial artists, who were good at physical defense, rolled and knocked down trees one after another.
The master of Shenxing Sect approached the Joyful Elixir Fragrance silently. He thrust the dagger in his hand forward, and his killing intent exploded.
The colorful robe suddenly rose and turned into a five-colored wall.
This was just a camouflage. The dagger easily pierced through the robe, but the Joyful Elixir Fragrance had already taken the opportunity to escape. The light shot out from the dagger rushed out dozens of feet, splashing soil and gravel on the ground.
On the other side, the seven constellations of the Blue Dragon did not delay and slowly approached the stone door.
"Roar!"
The War Hounds opened its bloody mouth and roared at the seven constellations of the Blue Dragon, spitting like rain.
Its face showed a human-like fear. Facing the seven constellations of the Blue Dragon, it cowered and retreated, trying to scare them away with its roar.
"War Hounds, back off."
Cao Qingyang chased the mutated beast out of the battlefield before it went berserk.
The strength brought by the huge size of the strange beast was a natural advantage, but at this moment, it was a fatal weakness.
A big size meant that it was hard to dodge. When facing a Transcendent Realm enemy, it was likely to be beheaded in two or three strikes.
In this aspect, Warrior, who was good at movement skills, had an advantage.
"Alliance Master, there are too many beasts and they are full of hostility. It will affect our judgment."
The Pavilion Master of the Black Pavilion, Yang Cuixue, held his iron sword and couldn't hide the anxiety on his face.
Cao Qingyang said in a deep voice, "You are in charge of clearing the flock of birds and beasts. Leave him to me …"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Cuixue shouted, "Be careful!"
Without needing his reminder, Cao Qingyang jumped to the side and dodged the Blue Dragon's saber light.
The saber light missed and hit the mountain. Rumble! The cliff cracked open and rocks rolled down.
Deng deng deng … After Cao Qingyang dodged the saber, he charged at the seven constellations of the Blue Dragon.
"Swoosh!"
What greeted him was a blazing saber light.
Cao Qingyang didn't dodge and even took the initiative to meet it because the saber was aimed at the stone door behind him.
His qi condensed on his fists and his fist intent exploded. Cao Qingyang's fists combined to 'clamp' the saber light.
He clamped the saber light and the saber light pushed him back.
Peng!
Cao Qingyang's back slammed into the stone door, causing rocks to roll down.
"Alliance Master."
Xiao Yuenu and the others were filled with anxiety. They unconsciously distanced themselves from their opponent and looked at the situation.
"Cough, cough …"
Cao Qingyang coughed violently. His fists and chest were drenched in blood.
The members of the Wulin League were shocked. Cao Qingyang, who was half a step away from rank three, was beaten to such a sorry state with just one slash.
"Not bad. You are only half a step away from rank three. Your vitality and tenacity have gradually surpassed rank four."
The Blue Dragon scrutinized Cao Qingyang and said in a hoarse voice mixed with jealousy, "You will advance to rank three in a few more years. Cao Qingyang, your death is not in vain. "
The cloak suddenly rose and he raised the saber in his hand.
His seven companions behind him did the same. The air was distorted and connected the eight of them together, gathering all of their energy to the Blue Dragon.
The saber in the Blue Dragon's hand became boiling hot. It seemed to be unable to withstand the majestic energy and was on the verge of melting.
The Blue Dragon no longer hesitated and slashed out the saber energy that he had been accumulating for a long time.
After this slash, the Blue Dragon focused his attention on his surroundings. With Cao Qingyang's strength, he would definitely not be able to withstand it. Behind him was the place where the old man from the Wulin League was cultivating in seclusion.
Therefore, Xu Qi'an or Sun Xuanji would definitely show up.
However, what happened next was beyond the Blue Dragon's expectation. Xu Qi'an and Sun Xuanji did not show up. Instead, Cao Qingyang recklessly crossed his arms in front of his chest. Was he trying to block the extraordinary saber with his body?
"Leader, dodge!"
"Cao Qingyang, don't be rash …"
Cries of alarm rose and fell as Xiao Yuenu swung her sword at Liu Hongmian, forcing her to retreat. Then, she flew toward the stone door.
Dai Zong ran with a ferocious look on his face. It seemed like he wanted to compete with the saber energy in terms of speed.
Yang Cuixue, Fu Jingmen, Qiao Weng, and the other rank four experts all rushed toward the stone door to help.
Boom!
The saber energy exploded on Cao Qingyang's body, and the shockwave almost tore everyone's eardrums.
Bang, bang, bang … The cliff wall kept cracking. The shockwave sent Xiao Yuenu flying, Fu Jingmen back, and a group of Wulin League experts back.
"Boorish man!"
The Blue Dragon stood proudly, his robe fluttering in the wind set off by the shockwave.
Without reaching rank three, the result of taking this saber attack was almost foreseeable.
Qihuan Danxiang, White Tiger, Liu Hongmian, and the others restrained their joy and stared at the stone door.
…
On the Wind Boat.
Ji Xuan, who was watching the battle attentively, moved his ears and looked behind him.
Dongfang Wanrong and Xu Yuanhuai made synchronized movements, while Xu Yuanshuang looked down at the battle without any abnormality. She only turned around when she heard the whistling sound.
She saw a young man wearing a black robe embroidered with gold and silver threads flying toward the Wind Boat on a flying sword.
His appearance was peerlessly handsome, his skin was fair, and he was as graceful as a noble young master.
Any young girl in love would be tempted to see such a handsome man.
Li Lingsu? Xu Yuanshuang was impressed by this outstanding Tenzō Holy Son, but she didn't have time to appreciate his appearance. She looked around vigilantly.
The same was true for Ji Xuan and Xu Yuanhuai.
Li Lingsu was here. Would Xu Qi'an be far away?
At this time, Dongfang Wanrong said lightly: "It doesn't matter, the one surnamed Xu didn't come."
The three of them heaved a sigh of relief. Ji Xuan laughed bitterly. He thought to himself that they were afraid of being beaten by Xu Qi 'an.
Dongfang Wanrong ignored the three of them and went straight to Li Lingsu, looking at him coldly:
"What are you doing here?"
Li Lingsu jumped off the flying sword, stared at her charming peach blossom face, and said emotionally:
"I came to see the girl I've been yearning for day and night."
He then sighed:
"I know I'm not qualified to say this. Because I always leave without saying goodbye and always leave your Sister Qing behind. "
Dongfang Wanrong's pretty face was covered with frost:
"Li Lingsu, you don't have to say these flowery words anymore.
"I like you, so I'm willing to listen to your words. But since you chose to go with Xu Qi'an and abandoned me and Sister Qing, we sisters have nothing to do with you anymore.
"Gratitude and grudges, love and hatred, cut off. You don't have to come to me again."
Li Lingsu was slightly moved. The look on his face was complicated, sad, lost, and gloomy, like a pitiful person who was frustrated in love.
"Sister Rong, I'm sorry …"
Dongfang Wanrong sneered disdainfully.
"Your words are truly heart-wrenching. In that instant, I knew that I had lost something important, something more important than my life."
He said.
Dongfang Wanrong glanced at him and said with a cold face:
"Leave quickly, don't get in the way here. Otherwise, don't blame me for not remembering the old friendship. "
As she spoke, she pulled out the dagger hanging at her waist.
Li Lingsu shook his head slightly:
"In the past six months, I did feel that the love between you and Sister Qing was too heavy, which made me not feel happy at all, and even a little pain in my waist.
"These shouldn't be the reasons for me to leave you. I'm not here to beg for your forgiveness, nor to make excuses for myself.
"I'm concerned about you."
Seeing Dongfang Wanrong's indifferent face, he suddenly felt bitter and resentful. He pointed at Ji Xuan and others and said angrily:
"Do you know how terrible Xu Qi'an is? Do you know that Xu Qi'an beat this group of people outside Yongzhou City and almost lost their lives?
"Why do you and Sister Qing have to get involved? With your cultivation, you won't even be able to hurt a hair on Xu Qi 'an's head. "
Dongfang Wanrong sneered: "What does it have to do with you?"
Li Lingsu said loudly:
"It has nothing to do with me, but if you insist on staying here, I will take you away even if I die. I don't want you and Sister Qing to die in vain. "
Dongfang Wanrong threw the dagger in front of him, and her tone was as cold as the cold wind at this moment:
"You can kill yourself."
Ah, this … Li Lingsu was silent for a moment, then said with a forced smile:
"Sister Rong, you really don't love me anymore …"
He left with tears in his eyes.
Looking at the back of Li Lingsu leaving on his sword, Dongfang Wanrong was silent for a long time.
"Why didn't you kill him?"
Nalan Tianlu's voice sounded in her mind.
Dongfang Wanrong shook her head slightly: "He is the holy son of Tenzō. Killing him will attract Tenzō's revenge. I don't want to make enemies for Teacher."
Nalan Tianlu smiled:
"You still love him. If I didn't force you to kill him just now, you wouldn't have driven him away.
"Wanrong, deep love doesn't last long. We are not Tenzō's people, but we should also learn to forget love. If we are too emotional, we will be easily controlled by love. "
Dongfang Wanrong pursed her lips.
… …
On the other side, after Li Lingsu left on his sword, he did not return to War Hounds Mountain. Instead, he aimlessly circled outside.
This way, he could avoid being followed and spied on.
He took out the fragment of the Earth Book and poured out a small wild bird.
The wild bird fluttered its wings and landed on his shoulder, speaking in human language: "How is it?"
Li Lingsu's face was serious as he said:
"There are two Vajras on the Wind Boat, Sister Rong, as well as Ji Xuan and that pair of siblings.
"Then, I noticed an abnormal fluctuation in Sister Rong's spirit. Nalan Tianlu's spirit is really parasitic on Sister Rong.
"Apart from these people, there is no one else on the Wind Boat."
After the wild bird heard this, it pondered for a moment before pecking its head:
"You did well."
Li Lingsu hurriedly said: "Remember what you promised me, you will be lenient to Sister Rong and Sister Qing, don't kill them."
He was adding a layer of insurance for the Dongfang sisters.
The wild bird pecked its head:
"I can only do my best. You should know that Nalan Tianlu is residing in her Sea of Consciousness. It will be very difficult for me to deal with Nalan Tianlu without hurting her.
"Moreover, in a life and death situation, I might not be able to care about this."
Li Lingsu did not insist and said:
"I understand."
He was only going to the Wind Boat, the risk was not high and the difficulty of the task was not high. There was no reason to ask Xu Qi'an to protect the Dongfang sisters when he was fighting.
Xu Qi'an would not agree.
… …
In the depths of the jungle.
On the Wind Boat, other than a few old friends, there was no one else … … Xu Qi'an was focused on watching the battle while thinking.
"If there were only two Vajras, I would not be afraid by relying on the sharpness of the Nation Suppressing Sword, but the Nation Suppressing Sword would not have a strong effect on Nalan Tianlu.
"Li Lingsu did not see anyone else, but it does not mean that there is no ambush on the boat. With Xu Pingfeng's means, if he wanted to hide his killer move, Li Lingsu would definitely not be able to discover it.
"However, the Supervisor is watching Cloud State. Xu Pingfeng cannot leave in his original body. Let's not talk about whether he can hide from the Supervisor. If he dares to leave Cloud State, the Supervisor might directly steal the crystal.
"Ji Xuan, this son of a b * tch, has the same idea as me. He is testing my trump card step by step … …"
Xu Qi'an placed the Spherical Sky Divine Mirror at his feet and took out the fragments of the Book of the Earth.
He poured out the fragments of the Book of the Earth and summoned the Taiping Saber and the Nation Suppressing Sword.
The aura of the two Divine Weapons was restrained and there were no fluctuations.
"Long time no see, old friend."
Xu Qi'an touched the body of the brass sword.
The Nation Suppressing Sword transmitted a heavy and gentle thought, like an honest and steady senior master.
The Taiping Saber was much more cheerful, constantly conveying to Xu Qi'an the idea that "I am no longer who I used to be".
It was like a half-grown child telling his father that he was an adult.
"Very good. After half a month of nourishment, you have become sharper, Taiping!"
Xu Qi'an touched the dark golden blade, "Today, I will use the blood of Vajra as a sacrifice to you."
He put the Nation Suppressing Sword and the Taiping Saber on his left and right sides, picked up the Spherical Sky Divine Mirror again, looked at the half-kneeling figure at the stone door, and muttered,
"Cao Qingyang is such an idiot. He is not willing to use the essence blood I gave him. He wants to use it to digest and comprehend it to advance to the third rank.
"Does he really think that he can defeat the Seven Constellations of the Blue Dragon with his own cultivation and the cooperation of Yang Cuixue and the others?
"He has no choice but to use it now."
… …
"I'm too arrogant."
Cao Qingyang sighed, "Even if you rely on the Dharma Artifact and not the real third rank, I still can't deal with you. It's useless to rely on numbers."
Seeing that Cao Qingyang was safe and sound, Fu Jingmen, Yang Cuixue, and the others felt that things had changed. They couldn't believe it and were overjoyed at the same time.
Xiao Yuenu took a closer look, and her body trembled slightly.
"Leader, you, you have reached the third rank?!"
At this moment, Cao Qingyang's aura was completely different. It was faintly emitting an aura that made them tremble.
What was even more bizarre was that Cao Qingyang's skin had turned light golden.
"Third rank …" Yang Cuixue and Dai Zong stared at him in silence. They couldn't show any facial expressions for a moment, but everyone's heart suddenly beat faster and faster.
"Vajra Divine Art?!"
Suddenly, Jing Yuan, the warrior monk in the distance, blurted out with a slightly changed expression.
The members of the Wulin League who were immersed in great joy came to their senses at this moment.
"Leader, when did you learn the Vajra Divine Art?"
You Shi of Tie Yi Hall looked at his companions, trying to get an answer from them. But he saw the same confusion in their eyes.
What happened?
