The Qing Ming River surged from the north to the south and suddenly made a big turn here, pouring down to the southeast and into the sea.
A few hundred miles away from this turn was Magic Cloud City, which was connected to the Qing Ming River by a canal.
Lu Ping, Liu Tianyuan, and Liu Tianyuan took a detour and finally didn't encounter any more disciples from the five sacred grounds. Puzzled, Liu Tianyuan asked, "Junior Martial Brother, are you sure what will happen next will happen here?"
Lu Ping said with certainty, "Even if it doesn't happen here, it will definitely pass by here. Let's just wait and see!"
Three days later, the Northern Alliance's ship finally pierced through the morning mist. The huge ship was like a giant beast from ancient times, cutting through the surging Qing Ming River and appearing in the sight of Lu Ping and the others.
In fact, Lu Ping saw the ship before the other two because not only did Lu Ping's eyes have the Three Pure Eyes, but after his Dharma Form went through the first lightning tribulation and formed the Eagle Eyes, Lu Ping's vision was even further.
The three of them were on a low hill ten miles away from the turn of the Qing Ming River. Originally, Tian Tian and Tian Yuan thought that this place was a little too far from the Qing Ming River, but Lu Ping said that it was better to be close than far.
The huge ship was still mighty and majestic, but the many marks on the ship showed that the Northern Alliance's journey was not smooth sailing. When the ship got closer, the scene on the ship became even clearer. There were obvious cracks on the ship's hull, and dense runes could be seen. Obviously, the ship's protective array had been damaged a lot.
The three of them hid themselves on the hill, but they did not hide their auras. As the treasured ship got closer, the three of them could clearly sense that more and more cultivators who followed the treasured ship had arrived. They hid themselves as well. Many of them also took notice of the hill that the three of them were on. However, when they sensed the auras of the three of them, they avoided them.
At this moment, Lu Ping sighed softly and said in a low voice, "Iron Lock River Crossing Technique, they even used this kind of unorthodox magical power!"
Tian Tian had obviously heard of this magical power and said in surprise, "Iron Lock River Crossing Technique? Who used it? Can it stop the ship? "
As soon as Tian Tian finished speaking, the treasured ship that was moving against the current suddenly slowed down. The huge ship continued to move forward with great inertia, but it was blocked by a force hidden in the water. A clear wave that crossed the surface of the Qing Ming River stretched forward with the treasured ship as the center, forming a huge triangle.
Creak creak creak!
A teeth-aching sound came from the body of the treasure ship, followed by a series of crisp cracking sounds. Dozens of talismans engraved on the body of the ship cracked one after another.
"Hmph, with such a trick, you think you can stop the ship?!"
A gloomy and cold shout came from the treasured ship. Immediately after, the entire treasured ship suddenly lit up, and dense spirit energy emerged from the surroundings of the treasured ship, enveloping the entire ship in a thin layer of mist.
"Not good, retreat quickly!"
Someone sensed that something was wrong and immediately shouted, but it was too late.
A huge gust of wind suddenly surged outside the ship, blowing the sails that were hundreds of feet high like a bowstring. The ship, which had already stopped, tried to move forward again.
Crackle!
In the struggle, the protective runes on the ship cracked again, and the whole ship looked like it was full of cracks, almost taking up a quarter of the ship's body.
Bang!
The wave that had been blocking the boat was now like a broken bowstring. It was forcefully broken by the boat, and the 20 or so Dharma adepts who had been hiding on both sides of the Qing Ming River and had worked together to set up this "Iron Locks Across the River" spell were now exposed.
More than ten of them were sent flying into the air because their level of practice was not high enough. The remaining eight or nine mid Dharma adepts were not sent flying, but they also spat out blood and looked dispirited. Only the great adepts who were in charge of the spell on each side looked pale for a moment, but they quickly recovered and looked fine.
The ship, which had broken the Iron Lock River spell, suddenly moved forward. Because of the previous accumulation of power, it had increased its speed.
"Not good, it's going to run. Stop it!"
Shouts came from all around, and many of the adepts who were hidden in the air appeared, but for a moment, no one dared to go forward and attack the ship.
The blocking spell that the 20 Dharma adepts had set up under the command of the two Grand Adepts had been easily broken by the ship. These people who dared to attack the ship were all smart as ghosts. Although they were shouting, they did not take a step forward, only hoping that someone else would be the first bird to take the lead.
The east was getting brighter, and a fireball jumped out from the ground. In an instant, it shone brightly, breaking through the heavy fog on the surface of the river. The blinding light made many people feel uncomfortable for a moment.
"Something's wrong, retreat!"
Liu Tianyuan and Tian Tian had never thought that they would hear Lu Ping's panicked voice one day. Although they did not know what Lu Ping had discovered, they did not dare to be slow. The three of them rose into the air and flew behind the hill.
A strange whistling sound came faintly from the sky!
Hmm, why was there a whistling sound?
In the process of flying back, Liu Tianyuan and Tian Tian looked at the surface of the river again. This time, they finally saw the reason clearly, and they gasped. Originally, they were slightly hesitant to fly back, but now they were determined and even faster.
It was a ray of sword light!
At the moment of sunrise, it stood out from the light of heaven and earth that shone on all things. In an instant, it even overshadowed the Golden Crow in this area. The heavens and the earth lost color, and the world was silent. In the universe, only the power of this sword could cover the heavens and the earth, and the weather changed!
The faint whistling sound in the sky was the sound of this shocking sword breaking the sound barrier and rushing over to meet up with it. But then, it was completely drowned out by the earth-shaking scene here.
A sword came from the east. It was majestic and large, and it slashed directly toward the treasured boat. The blazing light caused the eyes of all the cultivators on both sides of the Azure Netherworld River to be completely bright. Among them, only the cold voice that came from the treasured boat resounded, and it was a furious roar filled with terror!
Lu Ping, who was flying back, suddenly turned green and red, and two green and red rays shot out two feet long. For a moment, even the shocking sword light that changed the color of heaven and earth couldn't cover Lu Ping's sight.
The Qing Ming River, which was dozens of miles long, suddenly sank, forming a huge ditch that was 30 feet wide and more than 100 feet deep. The treasure ship suddenly sank for 100 feet, and it seemed that it would be swallowed by the river water on both sides at any time.
However, the reason why the treasure ship was called a treasure ship was that it was the foundation of several generations of cultivators, and it could be said to be one of the treasures with the highest achievements in the cultivation world. How could it be destroyed by a single blow? Even this shocking sword light couldn't do it!
With the loud shout just now, a huge shield suddenly lit up on the treasure ship, and then it condensed into a huge palm above the shield, grabbing at the sword light that came from the sky.
Puchi!
The palm was immediately cut off, and the sword light continued to slash down.
Boom!
The array formation of the treasure ship suddenly dimmed, and the talismans on the body of the ship exploded. Two-thirds of the talismans on the body of the ship suddenly exploded, and the entire body of the treasure ship sank more than three feet into the river again.
But in the end, the treasured ship was still able to withstand this heaven-shaking attack!
However, although the sword light that covered the sky was blocked, it immediately shattered, and the sharp force still invaded the body of the ship.
Whoosh!
The full sail of the treasure ship immediately fell down, and the treasure ship that was originally speeding slowly slowed down on the surface of the river until it completely lost the power to move forward.
In the blink of an eye, the blazing light that covered the sky suddenly dissipated, and the river water that was more than ten feet deep that was cut by the sword light surged back. The treasure ship that was originally in the ditch suddenly jumped up, and the huge body of the ship was now like a toy on the surface of the river.
There was a dead silence on both sides of the river, as if they had been stunned by the shocking attack just now. Then, a few corpses suddenly appeared in the river, obviously the cultivators who had been hiding in the Qing Ming River before. Then, from the forest on both sides of the river, like a swarm of frightened birds, dozens of figures flew out into the distance.
Most of these cultivators were in the Dharma Plane, but at this moment, they were all in a mess. Obviously, although the sword light that covered the sky did not hurt them, it made them suffer a lot.
Lu Ping and the other two retreated all the way, but in the end, they were not affected by this shocking sword light. However, Tian Tian and Liu Tianyuan still looked shocked. Liu Tianyuan's eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "What a powerful sword light! What kind of person could perform such a shocking sword light!"
Lu Ping raised his head and looked toward the gradually rising sun in the east, and suddenly said, "It's coming!"
The two followed Lu Ping's gaze, and in their eyes, there was still a glaring sunlight, but they could not see anything clearly.
At this moment, the sky full of sunlight suddenly condensed, and another sword light that covered the sky was formed, slashing toward the treasure ship on the Qing Ming River from afar.
Just as the sword light was formed and the sky full of sunlight was retracted, Liu Tianyuan and Tian Tian finally faintly saw a figure walking toward them in the sunlight.
"It really is him!"
"Who?"
"Sky Splitting Sword Saint Xiao Baiyu!"
"Hiss, it's him! No wonder! "
Two-thirds of the Northern ship's protective barrier had been destroyed by the talismans on its hull. The barrier's power had been reduced to less than a tenth of its original state. There was no way it would be able to withstand the sword that had dimmed the light of the world.
The cold sound of the sword whistling sounded again, and an equally brilliant sword light came from the north bank of the Qing Ming River. Halfway through, it collided with the light in front of it, and the brilliant sword light immediately shattered. However, although the light in front of it had dimmed a lot, it still continued forward.
"Xiao Baiyu, that's enough!"
An angry roar came from the south bank, and the rolling sound waves condensed in mid-air, actually condensing into a crystal shield in mid-air.
The shield shattered when the sword light came down, but at the same time, the shattered space also destroyed the sky full of Sword Qi.
