Mu Qingxiao was confused by the Nether River Patriarch's words, even though the Queen Mother of the West had said the same thing before.
Back then, he had named it the Black Lotus of Destruction on a whim. Who would have thought that this would happen?
Moreover, the Black Lotus was not formed from the lotus seed of the Green Lotus. It was a defensive Dharma treasure formed from the fusion of various Deviant Flames during his metamorphosis.
It was not the Black Lotus of Destruction of Rahu.
Hiss!
Mu Qingxiao held the Soul Sword in her hand. The divine pattern between her brows was faintly discernible. Her supreme sword intent descended, and the entire sky trembled.
The Nether River Patriarch snapped out of his daze when he sensed that incomparably sharp aura. His eyes were filled with murderous intent. "What a powerful sword intent. You have hidden treasures. It is not impossible for you to prove your Dao with the sword in the future. But today, I will not allow you to live!"
At the same time, the two Immortal Swords in his hands, Yuantu and Avici, shone with blood-red light as they prepared for a stronger attack.
Seeing this, Mu Qingxiao raised her right arm slightly. Her Soul Sword hummed faintly as she slashed down.
Just as the Nether River Patriarch was about to slash, he felt an extremely sharp aura surging from behind him. He blocked with the Yuantu Immortal Sword!
Whoosh!
However, he was still a beat too slow. There was only a flash of cold light.
As scarlet blood spilled from the void, one of the Nether River Patriarch's arms fell from his body and fell into the Blood Sea below.
"What a pity."
Standing in the void, Mu Qingxiao held the Soul Sword in her hand and shook her head in disappointment. Her starry eyes looked at the void. The tip of the Soul Sword was embedded in the void.
At first, she wanted to control the Space Door and use the Soul Sword to cut off the Nether River Patriarch's head.
But she did not expect the latter to react so quickly. It was a pity that she only managed to cut off an arm.
She did not succeed this time. The latter would definitely be on guard next time. Her chances of success were not high.
Right now, the Nether River Patriarch's face was full of ferocity. His eyes gradually turned crimson. He glanced at the creeping crack on his back, unable to suppress the anger in his heart.
This sword had passed through the void and slashed out from behind.
The latter was only an Earth Immortal, but he had such terrifying control over space. It was unbelievable!
"Although I don't know what secrets you have, no matter what method I use, I will make you stay!"
The Nether River Patriarch's voice was low and murderous. His eyes turned even colder when he sensed Mu Qingxiao's sword intent.
He was born in the Blood Sea and was an innate god. In terms of seniority, he was comparable to Primordial Shi, Nuwa, and the others.
Back then, he had seen Nuwa create humans from clay and become a saint through virtue. After that, he had imitated Nuwa and used the Blood Sea as the foundation to create the Shura Clan. However, he had never been able to become a saint.
This matter was like a thorn in his throat.
Later, he witnessed Human Sovereigns becoming Sage-to-be one after another, which made him very uncomfortable. Now, the human youth had cut off one of his arms and was growing at a frightening speed, which could threaten his life. Therefore, the Nether River Patriarch's desire to kill was several times stronger.
He was deeply fearful of Mu Qingxiao's rapid growth.
He couldn't become a saint, but if the latter was given enough time to grow to the same height as the other Human Sovereigns, he dared not imagine …
Most importantly, if he killed the youth in front of him, the latter's secrets would belong to him, and he might even become a saint.
Clang! Clang!
Two scarlet immortal swords hummed faintly as the Nether River Patriarch wielded Yuan Killer in one hand and Avici in the other. Blood radiance filled the sky, reflecting the Blood Sea that drowned Kunlun as cold killing intent swept out.
"Die!"
The Nether River Patriarch's voice was like thunder, shaking the heavens. Blood lotuses bloomed beneath his feet as he swung his two immortal swords.
Screech!
Right at this moment, a phoenix cry that resounded through the nine heavens suddenly resounded.
Black flames filled the sky as a colossal body that was hundreds of meters long darted out of the black flames. Cold light flashed as it streaked across the horizon at a speed that the Nether River Patriarch could not react to!
"Feng … Bang!"
The Nether River Patriarch's voice was filled with disbelief, but before he could finish his words, his body instantly exploded into a cloud of blood mist.
Divine fire incinerated the blood mist and the void before it even touched the ground.
When the Nether River Patriarch died, a pair of black wings flapped above the void. A black phoenix covered the sky and soared in the sky, its body wreathed in black flames that reduced everything in its path to nothingness.
As the Blood Sea receded and the black flames receded, a white-robed figure appeared.
Mu Qingxiao narrowed her starry eyes as she watched the vanishing Blood Sea beneath her feet. With a wave of her sleeve, two immortal swords that glowed with scarlet light and emanated a baleful aura appeared in her hands.
"Yuan Killer, Avici, as expected of connate godfiends. Aside from the Red Lotus of Karmic Fire, they also have two immortal swords. What a waste that they are so unlucky."
The two immortal swords were second-tier immortal grade and were not their true forms, but the Slaughter Sword Will within them was not bad. It would be a pity to abandon them.
Mu Qingxiao took a deep breath after putting Yuan Killer and Avici into her small world.
Although the Nether River Patriarch was only a replica, he was still a Sky Immortal. If she hadn't exposed her black phoenix form, it would've been difficult to deal with him.
The latter wasn't like the Queen Mother of the West. Mu Qingxiao's immortal qi could interfere with the latter's emotions and greatly reduce her fighting strength, but the Nether River Patriarch was different. That was why her immortal qi didn't work.
If it did …
The corner of Mu Qingxiao's eyes twitched at the thought. That scene was unimaginable.
Tossing her complicated emotions to the back of her mind, she scanned her surroundings. The entire Kunlun Mountains had been devastated by the previous battle. She couldn't even sense any signs of life.
Enveloped in white light, Mu Qingxiao appeared in the hazy small world in the blink of an eye.
Space twisted as she returned to the small world, and she appeared in the lake around the hundred-million-year-old divine tree. This was where she'd placed the Water Spirit Pearl.
Standing in the air above the lake, Mu Qingxiao waved his sleeve and the lake water churned. Soon after, an extremely long silver body flew out from the lake and floated in the air.
The silver python's body stiffened as it hovered in the air. Its lantern-sized eyes stared at Mu Qingxiao in horror.
It had gained sentience and naturally knew that it was the young man in front of it who'd saved it and brought it to this wondrous place.
It liked the aura here very much. Its vitality was abundant, and it quickly recovered from its injuries. Moreover, it could cultivate with half the effort. The only thing that worried it was how the young man in front of it would deal with it.
Looking at the silver python's dark eyes, Mu Qingxiao said, "I'll allow you to cultivate here, but you'll be guarding this divine tree from now on."
