Little Ann gazed at Gou Dai calmly with eyes filled with flames. She turned her head slightly. She found it extremely strange that this fellow did not move even though he had clearly been discovered.
Gou Dai heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed like the other party really could not see him. Otherwise, she would have attacked immediately. Looking closely at the skeleton before him, he saw that it was holding a small blood-colored banner in its left hand. Gou Dai found the item in its right hand rather familiar.
"Isn't that … the Bamboo-Jade Lot of the Cloud Bookcase! Could Little Ann have been killed as well? No, isn't she still in seclusion and has yet to appear? Or … "
He stared at the little skeleton in disbelief. Then, he heard a 'pfft' and felt an intense pain in his chest. He slowly lowered his head. A bony hand had already pierced deep into his heart.
Gou Dai's expression immediately became extremely vicious. As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, his life force was powerful. He was actually not dead yet, and wanted to counterattack before he died. A deep chill had already spread throughout his body, freezing his soul.
The Samādhi Flames of White Bone devoured him mercilessly. Little Ann received the Glazed Mirror of Invisibility and looked at it before stowing it away. Then, she picked up the Bamboo-Jade Lot of the Cloud Bookcase and began divining.
She checked and filled in the gaps, searching for the possible dangers that might appear and eliminating them one by one.
… …
The Clear River's waters were vast, and it had already become a surging river. The surface of the river was vast and vast.
Li Qingshan leapt out of the water and gazed at Moon Court Lake in the distance. He was filled with lofty sentiments. He had refined half of the Clear River's water here, and he could even borrow the water of Moon Court Lake.
He raised his arm high, the Water God Seal in his palm.
Waves surged on Moon Court Lake. The lake water surged, surging into the Clear River wave after wave. The flow of the river suddenly sped up, and the speed of refinement became even faster.
A red scale vaguely appeared in the surging waves. Little Red shook its head and wagged its tail as it darted over. It raised its head and lifted Li Qingshan up.
Li Qingshan seemed to be riding a galloping horse, flowing with the flow. He chanted loudly, "The cries of the apes on both shores never cease. The boat has already passed ten thousand mountains."
In the sky, Liu Changqing, Hwa Seung-zan, and the rest of the Bai Clan's people were gathered. Standing on the Soaring Dragon Warship, everyone was speechless as they looked at the handsome Fiendish Demon flying in the air. No one dared to stop him.
At the end of the river was a large lake.
In the west, the sky was filled with red clouds. On the horizon that was dyed red, a wave suddenly rose. The wave was carrying a big fish, and on top of it stood a man. It was as if it had descended from the sky.
As the destination approached, Li Qingshan smiled too. His eyes swiveled, and he saw a few streaks of light shoot through the sky, flying over. The person in the lead was the Marquis of Ruyi in luxurious robes and a jade belt.
The Marquis of Ruyi was enveloped in scarlet light, making him seem like a meteor. This was the great power that had gathered the power of belief from millions of lives in the Ruyi commandery for several millennia over the Ruyi commandery.
The moment he saw the Moon Devil, two beams of cold light shot out from his eyes, and his speed increased. He leapt out of the crowd.
Li Qingshan completely ignored his mental exhaustion. He pursed his lips firmly, brought his hands together, and spread them outwards. The figure of the spirit turtle appeared, constantly accelerating and accelerating in the waves, charging towards the final destination.
"Wretched daemon!"
The Marquis of Ruyi raised his hand, and a scarlet jade seal flew out. The famous mountains and rivers of the Ruyi commandery were engraved on the seal, giving it an unending charm. At the very top was a crouching serpent.
The seal was called the Seal of Mountains and Rivers. It had been forged by the founding emperor when he established the nine provinces. Not only was it a competition of status, but it also possessed great power.
The Seal of Mountains and Rivers flew into the air and swelled in the wind. In the blink of an eye, it had become as lofty as a mountain.
A great shadow loomed over him. Li Qingshan suddenly raised his head, and the Seal of Mountains and Rivers descended from above, crushing down viciously. Just the sight of it made him feel suffocated. Although he possessed startling speed, he could not help but feel like he could not dodge it.
He was like a monarch. A medallion and a single edict could take the life of a general from an army of thousands. If a monarch wanted his subject to die, then the subject had to die.
The Seal of Mountains and Rivers was not a simple spiritual artifact or arcane artifact. Instead, it was similar to the Peachwood Sword of Prayer of the Gods that Li Qingshan had seen in the Soaring Dragon sect in the past. It possessed the powerful power of belief.
The Peachwood Sword of Prayer of the Gods had only been worshipped by the disciples of the Soaring Dragon sect for several centuries, while the Seal of Mountains and Rivers had gathered the power of belief from millions of lives across the entire Ruyi commandery. After several millennia, its power had increased by more than ten thousand fold. Even Golden Core cultivators would be scared witless if they were crushed beneath it. Only death would await them.
When the Marquis of Ruyi fought, he did not need to use any other techniques at all. As long as he unleashed the Seal of Mountains and Rivers, he could basically sweep through the Golden Core realm. He was invincible.
Boom!
With a violent rumble, the Seal of Mountains and Rivers crushed down on Li Qingshan viciously, imprinting itself on the ground.
The ground shook, and the rivers stopped flowing.
The Marquis of Ruyi smiled indifferently. He was just a Daemon General. Even if he was capable, how could he be his opponent? He had been taking him too seriously the entire time.
"Hmm?"
The Marquis of Ruyi was mildly surprised. He saw the Seal of Mountains and Rivers that stood over three hundred meters tall like a mountain actually rise up bit by bit.
Li Qingshan's figure changed, going from a handsome man to a vicious daemon. He stood over sixty meters tall, with a black face and sharp fangs. He had a head of bronze and a forehead of steel, standing tall. He propped up the Seal of Mountains and Rivers with both hands, and his iron hooves dug deep into the ground.
The pressure coming from the top of his head was astonishing, but it aroused his stubbornness. He let out a roar that sounded like a cow's mooing. It was like a tremor that came from the depths of the earth. It was long and deep, but it contained a power even stronger than thunder. His muscles bulged, and his arms in particular swelled up like two huge pillars that could hold up the sky.
"That's impossible!" That was the first thought that crossed the Marquis of Ruyi's mind. There was actually someone who could block the suppression of the Seal of Mountains and Rivers with brute force.
"I'd like to see just how long you can last!" The Marquis of Ruyi sneered. He leapt up and landed on the Seal of Mountains and Rivers, which had also become extremely huge.
The pressure from the Seal of Mountains and Rivers suddenly increased drastically. Li Qingshan knelt on one knee, using his entire body to carry the Seal of Mountains and Rivers on his back. His blood vessels burst open, and his tough tiger bones produced an ear-piercing sound of twisting metal.
The Strength of the Earth surged into his body endlessly. He gritted his teeth and held on firmly against the Seal of Mountains and Rivers. Victory was right in front of him, but he was unable to take another step forward.
"Moon Devil, today is the day you die!" The Marquis of Ruyi laughed heartily.
At this moment, the three grandmasters rushed over as well. They gazed at the figure beneath the Seal of Mountains and Rivers, and they no longer possessed any elegance at all. There was only naked hatred and killing intent.
Once they struck, they would definitely unleash a startling killing move without holding back at all. The immobilised Li Qingshan was the best target, and as long as he relaxed even slightly, the Seal of Mountains and Rivers would crush him to a pulp.
"That's not necessarily true!"
Li Qingshan swallowed Wen Zhengming's golden core in a single gulp. He had never tried ingesting a Golden Core cultivator's golden core. He had no idea what the effects would be, but at a time like this, he could no longer care about that.
"Golden core, explode!"
The golden core exploded loudly, turning into extremely pure spiritual qi. It completely surpassed any pill Li Qingshan had ingested in the past. Who knew how many pills Wen Zhengming had ingested and who knew how many years in order to achieve this.
He unleashed the Ox Demon Transformation madly, converting all of the spiritual qi into the most primitive power in a single stroke.
Under the Marquis of Ruyi's stunned gaze, he stood up inch by inch and let out a deafening roar. He pushed his arms upwards violently, pushing the Seal of Mountains and Rivers and the Marquis of Ruyi into the air.
Using this opportunity, Li Qingshan flapped his wings and lunged forward without any regard. He made all of the daemon qi scattered through the surging water of the Clear river and lunged towards the end of the river, the destination of his journey.
"Stop him!" The Marquis of Ruyi bellowed out in surprise and fury.
Three streaks of light criss-crossed like three streaks of light, slashing over like three streaks of light.
Li Qingshan did not even look at them. He did not even dare to waste a single strand of daemon qi to unleash the Spirit Turtle's Profound Shell.
Blood splattered everywhere. The streaks of light tore through his skin and ripped apart his flesh.
Clang, clang, clang. There were three metallic screeches. That was the sound of the streaks of light striking his bones.
However, none of this could stop Li Qingshan's lunge. He was like a vicious tiger descending the mountains or a serpent diving into the sea, advancing forward with indomitable will.
With a great boom, Li Qingshan's colossal body collapsed in the swamp, kicking up a huge splash. He did not stop charging forward, moving several hundred meters away without moving at all. It was as if he had already used up all of his vigor.
The shadow enveloped Li Qingshan once again. The Marquis of Ruyi pressed his body against the Seal of Mountains and Rivers, using the ground as paper and pressing it down heavily.
Li Qingshan turned around and gazed at the whistling Seal of Mountains and Rivers that filled his vision. He widened his mouth, revealing his ghastly white teeth as he laughed aloud.
"Hahahahaha!"
The surging waters of the Clear river flowed from its source several thousand kilometers away to its destination. Daemon qi merged together, surging over the surface of the Clear river.
The Water God Seal flickered with unprecedented resplendent light. It swelled up, doubling in size. A long, slender streak of water coiled around it like a dragon or snake. It was the water of the Clear river.
"I'll make you laugh!" The Marquis of Ruyi ground his teeth. He shone with dazzling, scarlet light, merging with the Seal of Mountains and Rivers.
Bang! Water flowed in all directions, and droplets of water flew everywhere.
The Marquis of Ruyi did not feel like he was pressing down on something solid. He felt like he was pressing down on a ball of cotton, where a soft yet tough power came from below.
Li Qingshan was not fighting alone. Behind him were the surging waters of the Clear river, the surging Moon Court lake, and countless other water bodies of various sizes. It transformed into waves of water, and rays of spiritual light surged, supporting the Seal of Mountains and Rivers!
With the assistance of this power, Li Qingshan raised the Seal of Mountains and Rivers with ease. You're the marquis of a commandery, but I'm also the god of a river!
The three grandmasters had arrived together. Looking at them again, they all held a violet talisman in their hands. Clearly, they had taken out all their trump cards. They were determined to kill the Moon Devil no matter what.
The river surged over, turning into a huge fountain that rushed into the sky and deflected the Seal of Mountains and Rivers.
Before the three grandmasters could even form an encirclement, there was a flash before their eyes, and the Moon Devil vanished. All they saw was a scarlet streak of light shooting off into the distance.
Li Qingshan no longer had any misgivings. He flapped his wings of wind and fire and shook off the four Marquis of Ruyi and the others in the blink of an eye. He let out a great laugh. "What bullshit Marquis of Ruyi are you? That's all you amount to!"
Suddenly, he remembered that Yang Pinghu had once been known as the "Lord of the Clear Court", so he smiled.
"From today onwards, I am the Lord of the Clear River!"
