A Nascent Soul powerhouse's magic power is very strong. When they fight, their auras are majestic and the scene is grand. But for both sides, it was just a warm-up.
True Lord Luo Gu and True Lord Xuanji were entangled in battle, with True Lord Luo Gu relying on the 18 Undying Blood Demons to attack. Perfected Lord Xuanji's Sun-Penetrating Rainbow Sword formed an impenetrable sword formation.
As both sides continued to strengthen their magic power, the battlefield had already enveloped a radius of a hundred miles. Streaks of bloody shadows flashed, and the white sword light cut through the clouds and the wind.
The boundless sea of clouds had long since been twisted by the transcendence energy, and a huge hole had appeared in it. The surging transcendence energy kept spreading outwards, setting off layers upon layers of cloud waves.
After fighting for more than an hour, True Monarch Luo Gu was almost done testing the waters. Two hundred years ago, he had fought with Xuan Ji. At that time, Xuan Ji's cultivation was slightly higher than his.
Two hundred years had passed, and Xuan Ji's cultivation had also improved greatly. He seemed to be at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Realm. During the battle, the Nascent Souls of both sides controlled their magic power, and their auras interacted. It was very difficult to hide their true cultivation from the other party.
True Lord Luo Gu was at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, two levels higher than his opponent. However, the Heavenly Sword Sect was a Profound Sword Sect. Their cultivation was pure, and their magic power was long lasting.
The sword formation formed by the Sword of the Sun-Penetrating Rainbow didn't consume a lot of energy, but it was tightly guarded and didn't have any flaws.
Although the Eighteen Blood Demons had the ability to change, they were not good at attacking. If this dragged on, there was no chance of victory. Of course, True Monarch Luo Gu had other Spirit Weapons, but they weren't much of a threat.
Thinking of this, True Immortal Luo Gu decided to take out the Blood Killing Saber and launch a thunderous attack. Even if he couldn't kill Perfected Lord Xuanji, he could severely injure him. With one huge obstacle removed, the journey to Thousand Mountains would be much smoother.
The Blood Dissipating Divine Saber was neither made of gold nor jade. It was refined from the blood essence of an ancient Fey God. When it operated, there was only a faint blood-red light, but it could break all kinds of magic tools and spells. If the other party was injured, even a Nascent Soul would not be able to withstand the poison on the divine saber.
If it was not handled properly, the Nascent Soul would turn into a ball of blood essence and be absorbed by the Blood Dissipating Divine Saber. The more people this saber kills, the more powerful it becomes. However, absorbing external force to transform Blood Essence was difficult to sustain for a long period of time.
Over time, the Blood Dissipating Divine Saber would dissipate after absorbing external force. If the blood essence absorbed by the Blood Transformation Divine Saber could be accumulated, it would have long been upgraded to a top-notch divine weapon. The Blood Saber Sect wouldn't be suppressed by the Heavenly Sword Sect.
In order to plot against Perfected Lord Xuanji, Perfected Lord Luo Gu did not dare to borrow the strength of others. He could only use his own magic power to control the Blood Transformation Divine Saber. In order to conceal the Blood Dissipating Divine Saber, he even activated the Blood Flame Arrow.
This kind of consumable spirit artifact was extremely powerful. With a wave of his hand, he released hundreds of Blood Flame Arrows. The blood-colored arrow shot towards Perfected Lord Xuanji like a rain of blood.
The Sword of the Sun-Penetrating Rainbow transformed into layers of sword arrays, which were penetrated by the blood-colored flames, instantly became riddled with holes and shattered.
Perfected Lord Xuanji did not panic even though the sword formation was broken. With a wave of his hand, he took out an Eight Trigrams bronze plate. The bronze medallion quickly expanded in the air, then split into a huge Eight Trigrams formation.
The Eight Trigrams Formation transformed into rays of divine light that split and combined, spinning continuously. The blood-red fire arrows were either deflected or crushed by the Eight Trigrams Array.
After the 100 blood flame arrows were blocked by the Eight Trigrams formation, only a few blood flame arrows reached Perfected Lord Xuanji. With a flick of his finger, the Sword of the Sun-Penetrating Rainbow hummed and the blood flame arrows were shattered into specks of flame by the sword qi.
Perfected Lord Luo Gu was not disappointed. He released the blood flame arrows to cover the Blood Dissipating Divine Saber. When Perfected Lord Xuanji activated the Eight Trigrams bronze plate, a Blood Demon controlled the Blood Dissipating Divine Saber and disguised itself as a blood flame arrow to penetrate the Eight Trigrams formation.
Just as the specks of flame that were shattered by the sword qi were about to dissipate, a streak of blood light emerged from the void and slashed towards Perfected Lord Xuanji silently.
Perfected Lord Xuanji sensed that something was wrong and hurriedly used his sword to block. A streak of blood light turned in the air and while avoiding the Sword of the Sun-Penetrating Rainbow, it slashed Perfected Lord Xuanji.
The saber light flashed and Perfected Lord Xuanji was split into two.
However, Perfected Lord Luo Gu felt that something was wrong. Perfected Lord Xuanji was a Nascent Soul expert and had two protective spirit artifacts. How could he be killed so easily? Furthermore, Xuanji's broken body was empty and did not seem to be made of flesh and blood.
More importantly, the Blood Dissipating Divine Saber did not absorb any essence blood.
"This is a substitute!" Perfected Lord Luo Gu immediately realized that he had been tricked.
However, such an exquisite substitute actually had Dharmic powers that were not inferior to the main body. Clearly, it was a very powerful spirit artifact. Perfected Lord Xuanji had invested so much. What was he trying to do?
At the thought of this, Perfected Lord Luo Gu hurriedly used his escape technique to retreat. At this moment, a heavy ancient sword appeared above him.
"Sky Billow Sword!" Perfected Lord Luo Gu recognized this sword at a glance. It was the ultimate treasure of the Heavenly Sword Sect. He did not expect the Heavenly Sword Sect to actually invest so much to bring the Sky Billow Sword.
Before the Sky Billow Sword landed, the ice-cold sword qi of the divine sword had already locked onto Perfected Lord Luo Gu.
Divine Lord Luo Gu's entire body was ice-cold and his Nascent Soul seemed to be frozen by the ice-cold sword qi. He knew that he would die if he could not withstand this sword. He did not dare to hesitate and burned his flesh and blood essence at the same time, converting the majestic Dharmic powers into his Nascent Soul.
This Sacrifice Art was a secret technique of the Blood Shadow Sutra. Perfected Lord Luo Gu had cultivated his body for hundreds of years and had abundant essence qi. The sudden release of all of it also greatly increased the power of the nascent soul.
The blood-red Nascent Soul expanded and summoned the Blood Dissipating Divine Saber back. True Lord Luo Gu's cultivation level increased greatly in a short period of time by burning his Dharmic powers.
The Blood Transformation Divine Saber, which looked like a streak of blood light, also turned into a five feet long saber under the stimulation of his magic power. True Lord Luo Gu held the Blood Transformation Saber in his hand and slashed at the huge ancient sword falling from the sky.
When the sword and saber clashed, an earth-shattering sound rang out.
The Sky Billow Sword, which had been accumulating power to slash down, was also sent flying by the raging magic power. True Monarch Luogu's Nascent Soul was also unable to withstand the power and rapidly fell down with the Blood Transformation Divine Saber.
Inside the Cloud-slaying Flying Ship, Perfected Lord Xuanji who was controlling his sword to attack suffered a backlash from the sword qi. His Nascent Soul in his sea of consciousness shook and he staggered backwards. Countless fine lines appeared on the surface of his skin.
If it wasn't for the protection of the array, his body would have been smashed into pieces. In this head-on clash, both Divine Weapons erupted with terrifying power. This was beyond the control of Perfected Lord Xuanji and Perfected Lord Luo Gu.
In comparison, True Monarch Luo Gu was in an even more miserable state. Not only was his physical body turned into magic power, but his nascent soul was also severely injured. He would need at least a few decades to fully recover. He couldn't get his body back no matter how hard he tried. He only had fifty to sixty percent of his cultivation left.
Perfected Lord Xuanji had also prepared a backup plan, which was the Purple Lightning Flame Cannon on the Cloud-slaying Flying Ship. He had originally planned to use it to plot against True Monarch Luo Gu, but he hadn't expected that True Monarch Luo Gu would decisively use the Sacrificing Secret Technique and summon the Blood Dissipating Saber to fight head-on with him.
Perfected Lord Xuanji no longer had the strength to lock onto Perfected Lord Luo Gu after his Nascent Soul suffered a huge blow. He could only let him escape.
The cultivators of the Heavenly Sword Sect who were responsible for controlling the Purple Lightning Flame Cannons naturally couldn't lock onto True Monarch Luo Gu. At this moment, Gao Zhengyang gave everyone some guidance.
"Fire the cannons!" What sounded like True Lord Xuanji's voice rang out in the ears of several cultivators at the same time.
The cultivators' hearts tightened, but for some reason, they were able to sense True Monarch Luo Gu's location with their spirit sense. Without hesitation, the cultivators activated the spell formation and fired the cannons.
The twelve Purple Lightning Flame Cannons shot out a large amount of purple lightning fire and accurately hit True Monarch Luo Gu.
The fleeing True Monarch Luo Gu originally had a chance to dodge, but his heart suddenly shook and he was dazed for a moment. It was too late for him to dodge.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom …"
The scorching purple lightning fire exploded at the same time. True Monarch Luo Gu was severely injured and didn't have a physical body, so his resistance against lightning arts was at its lowest.
True Monarch Luo Gu's Nascent Soul was instantly shattered in the large amount of purple lightning fire. Only a wisp of his Divine Soul managed to enter the Blood Dissipating Saber and instinctively flew away on the saber.
Even Perfected Lord Xuanji was greatly surprised by the sudden change. However, he didn't think too much about it. He only thought that his disciples were lucky and hit True Monarch Luo Gu.
True Monarch Luo Gu was no longer a threat even if he barely survived. As for the Blood Dissipating Saber, it had a secret spell left behind by the Blood Saber Sect. It would be very difficult to take it by force.
Perfected Lord Xuanji also gave up on the idea of chasing after the Blood Dissipating Saber. He said to Perfected Lord Zi Que next to him, "Junior Brother, let's seize the opportunity to attack the Cloud-Soaring Flying Ship and completely defeat them."
Perfected Lord Zi Que nodded in agreement. "That's right. They only have one Purple Blood left. That old man is cowardly. It's a good opportunity to beat them back. "
After a brief discussion, the two immediately gave the order to fight.
The Purple Lightning Flame Cannons on the Cloud-Slaying Flying Ship aimed at the Cloud-Soaring Flying Ship and fired together.
Of course, Perfected Lord Purple Blood didn't dare to fight and fled with the Cloud-Soaring Flying Ship. After chasing for tens of thousands of kilometers, the Cloud-Soaring Flying Ship fled in a sorry state.
The Heavenly Sword Sect had won a complete victory. Everyone on the Cloud-Slaying Flying Ship was proud of themselves. After resting for a while, they continued to fly toward Thousand Mountains.
Not long after the Cloud-Slaying Flying Ship left, ripples appeared in the air, and Gao Zhengyang walked out of the air ripples.
He looked at the Cloud-Slaying Flying Ship in the distance and didn't continue to chase after it.
It took him a lot of effort to catch up to the Blood Dissipating Saber and subdue it. By the time he arrived, it was already a little too late.
However, it was no big deal.
