At first, it was his carelessness that left his brand on the Nether River.
Still, after he left this plane, the latter naturally lost its sense of the brand, so it was normal that it couldn't find him.
And the moment he returned to the Immortal Sword Plane, the latter might have sensed his presence.
If he was a step slower, the latter might have brushed past him.
Seeing Mu Qingxiao's fearlessness and carefree contemplation, the black-robed figure paused for a moment and waved his robes.
"Die, ant!"
"Boom!"
In an instant, a blood-red beam of light pierced through the sky and blasted towards Mu Qingxiao at the speed of lightning.
Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom!
The Blood Sea surged, destroying countless crimson peaks before being corroded into blood and completely fusing into the Blood Sea.
Streaks of blood-red light pillars shot down from the sky. Each of them contained a vast amount of energy. They pierced through the clouds and headed straight for Mu Qingxiao's body.
However, space distorted, and Mu Qingxiao's figure had retreated thousands of meters away at some point. The crimson beams all missed and crashed into Kunlun.
One crimson mountain after another was razed to the ground at an unstoppable speed, forming many bottomless black holes with white smoke rising from them.
"Eh?!"
A surprised exclamation came from the black-robed figure when he saw Mu Qingxiao easily evade the crimson beams.
"Immortal qi. You're already an Earth Immortal!"
A pair of sharp and cold eyes sized up the young man from three hundred meters away, his voice full of disbelief.
At that moment, the Nether River Patriarch's brow was twitching wildly as he seriously sensed the young man's aura. Although it was restrained, he could still faintly sense a vast and boundless immortal qi!
But it had only been ten years. He remembered that the latter was merely a Mahayana ant when he first met him on the Nether River.
And yet, he was still an Earth Immortal after ten years. How could he not be shocked?
Since ancient times, no one had grown at such a frightening speed apart from those who were born as geniuses, let alone in a place where immortal qi was thin.
This kid must be hiding a shocking secret!
At that thought, the Nether River Patriarch's sharp eyes shone with indescribable greed. He could not wait to skin the young man before him and dig out all his secrets!
"Brat, give me your secrets, and I will spare your life. How about it?"
"Ssss — —"
Even so, just as the latter finished speaking, a dazzling radiance streaked across the horizon. It was as quick as a flash of light, arriving in front of the Nether River Patriarch in an instant and darting toward his neck.
"Rip!"
Accompanied by the sound of the black robe tearing, the figure shrouded in it appeared. Then, a furious voice came from his mouth, "Ant, how dare you!"
The black robe was torn apart and instantly turned into a pool of blood. Mu Qingxiao's starry eyes narrowed as disappointment flashed across them.
Originally, he wanted to take the latter's head with his sword, but he didn't expect that the black robe was actually a defensive magic treasure derived from the sea of blood.
At that moment, standing in the void was a skinny old man in a blood-red robe with a sinister look.
The old man carried two Immortal Swords on his back. His clothes flapped loudly, and his black hair danced in the wind. His eyes were sharp and indifferent, as if all the living beings in the world could not be reflected in his eyes.
The Nether River Patriarch looked at the Immortal Swords that surrounded Mu Qingxiao. His face was extremely gloomy, but his heart was filled with shock.
If he had not been vigilant and had not had a defensive magic treasure, he might have been tricked by this brat's Immortal Swords!
"Ssss!"
Suddenly, the sound of a longsword being unsheathed could be heard in the sky. Suddenly, a blood-red light shrouded the void. Amidst the dazzling light, there was a chilling murderous aura that caused the entire world to tremble!
At that moment, the contempt in the Nether River Patriarch's eyes had disappeared. It was replaced by a solemn and even regretful look.
Why did he let this brat go back at the Nether River? It was really a case of nurturing a tiger and inviting calamity!
At that thought, the Nether River Patriarch was in the mood to grind Mu Qingxiao's bones into dust. If it were not for the fact that this was just a clone, he would not have allowed this ant to act so arrogantly in front of him!
Following the sound of a sword being unsheathed, a ferocious Immortal Sword that was suffused with blood-red light appeared in his sight.
The Immortal Sword exuded a vast and sinister aura. It was solemn and sharp, and the body of the sword was covered in runes. In the middle of the sword, there were two divine patterns that were faintly discernible. It had an ancient aura, and there was no telling how many living beings had perished under this Immortal Sword.
Mu Qingxiao narrowed her starry eyes. She could clearly see two faintly discernible words on the blood-red Immortal Sword — Yuantu!
According to legend, the Nether River Patriarch had the Yuantu and Avici Immortal Swords. He had founded the Immortal Sword Sect — Kill Heaven, Kill Earth, and Kill All Life.
Meanwhile, the Nether River Patriarch's Yuantu and Avici Immortal Swords would not be tainted by karma. In other words, there would not be any problems with karma. This was his Dao of Slaughter.
As Yuantu was unsheathed, the Nether River Patriarch stepped into the void and raised his right hand. He swung the Immortal Sword down, and a brilliant beam of blood-red light slashed toward Mu Qingxiao.
Seeing the sharp and terrifying aura sweeping toward him, Mu Qingxiao and Jun Yi's cheeks were as calm as an ancient well. With a thought, the black jade pendant at his waist emitted a dazzling light. It floated in the air and formed a boundary that enveloped him.
The Torch Dragon Scale!
Mu Qingxiao had obtained this immortal grade defensive treasure from Prince Chang Qin in the Ancient Sword Strange Tan Realm. He had only used it twice in the past few decades.
The first time was in the Ancient Vine Forest. But he did not know if it could withstand the Nether River Patriarch's attack.
Mu Qingxiao did not care about the Torch Dragon Scale. If it was shattered here, it would not be of much use even in the future.
Moreover, the Black Lotus of Destruction hovered above his sea of consciousness. Its defensive power was shocking. Even the Queen Mother of the West's Green Lotus Flag and Kunlun Mirror could only crack it.
Moreover, as he grew, the defensive power of the Black Lotus of Destruction became more and more shocking!
The Torch Dragon Scale had no growth potential. Compared to it, it was more than a grade lower.
"Roar!"
Sensing the terrifying attack, the Torch Dragon Scale let out a dragon roar that resounded through the nine heavens!
Immediately, an illusory black dragon swept out from the scale and rushed toward the blood-red sword light at lightning speed.
"Bang!"
The black dragon and the sword light collided. With it as the center, the blue sky instantly turned into nothingness.
The two forces clashed and confronted each other …
However, it did not take long for the black dragon to gradually become illusory. Its power also receded, and it finally shattered like an illusion.
The blood-red sword light was immortal and instantly slashed the Torch Dragon Scale.
Crack! Crack … "
Mu Qingxiao did not dodge. The moment the blood-red sword light shrouded him, the Torch Dragon Scale played its final role and blocked the sword. However, the jade pendant was covered with dense cracks.
"A first immortal grade defensive treasure is still a little weak after all."
