The three Blood Spirit Crystals melted in his mouth.
The transparent crystal shell melted away, and the exposed blood-red crystal threads immediately burst forth with a vast power.
This power instantly poured into Lu Qingshan's body, merged into his blood, and began to attack the barrier hidden in the depths of his blood.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
His blood was like waves, surging violently, constantly erupting, wave after wave slamming against the dam.
What followed was a sharp pain that made one's soul tremble.
Lu Qingshan clenched his teeth, enduring the unavoidable pain that came from the inside of his body.
After the previous experience, this time his heart was incomparably cold and clear, and he even had the spare energy to observe the changes in his body.
He saw the mysterious energy seeping into his blood, and suddenly every molecule that made up his blood began to produce some subtle changes, as if some shackles were being unlocked.
Although painful, the feeling of the shackles being unlocked was also very wonderful.
Pain and happiness.
"It's fine once I get used to it. The pain of absorbing the Blood Spirit Crystals no longer affects me," Lu Qingshan said to himself.
"… Instead, the feeling of a breakthrough brings me incomparable joy — Oh!"
Before he finished rejoicing, he could not help but let out a low roar, like a beast growling.
Pain!
Sharp pain!
A pain that was far more intense than before suddenly erupted without warning.
A crackling sound rang from his body, from his blood.
"I was careless …"
Lu Qingshan was in so much pain that he sucked in cold air. He knew that he had spoken too early.
Hiss — Hiss — Hiss — Hiss —
Lu Qingshan, who was in so much pain that his consciousness was blurred, vaguely heard a series of rapid gasps.
Huh?
This sound clearly did not come from him …
There was someone else in the room?!
After a breath.
"Gu Yiyi, you're just a bystander, what are you acting for?" Lu Qingshan gnashed his teeth.
"It hurts!" Gu Yiyi was not straightforward, but her voice was strong.
Even in this state, Lu Qingshan could not help but laugh in anger.
Boom!
At this moment, another explosion sounded in his body.
Following a peng sound, something shattered and disintegrated, making him feel relaxed all over.
Soon after, the pain slowly dissipated, and the surging blood also gradually calmed down.
He had finally absorbed all the power of the Blood Spiritual Crystal.
Hu — —
Lu Qingshan let out a long sigh, as if relieved of a heavy burden.
It was finally over. He had made it through.
"I should have broken through," he thought.
The pain at the last moment was so intense that he couldn't calm down to observe his condition.
However, he could clearly hear the sound of something shattering.
Lu Qingshan hurriedly activated Introspective Convalescence to observe the changes in his body.
"This …"
After using the body-changing divine bloodline, he was no different from Qing Ge. Not to mention his blood, even his aura was the same.
But now, he was able to see a faint golden light within the particles that made up the blood's outer appearance.
His consciousness could clearly feel that the bottleneck of his power, which had reached its limit, had loosened at this moment.
"The barrier is still there. The power of four Blood Spiritual Crystals still can't help me break through the limit of the Nine Flower Realm. However, my bloodline has indeed undergone a transformation."
Lu Qingshan murmured, "If I'm not wrong, although the Ten Flower Realm is difficult to cultivate, I should be able to continue to improve my power now."
"However, there are only Nine Flower Techniques in the world … So, how should I continue to improve and break through?" A new problem appeared. Lu Qingshan could not help but frown.
Thinking of this, he subconsciously opened the panel.
"Level: Void Refinement Complete (Nine Flower Realm)"
"Technique: Da Xia Kingdom Sutra (Void Refinement Chapter) Complete — Nine Flowers."
In the next moment, Lu Qingshan's eyes widened.
Everything seemed to be the same as before.
However, the Technique column of Da Xia Kingdom Sutra had turned gray after he cultivated to the Nine Flower Realm.
But now, it had lit up again!
"Could it be that the Sutra of Da Xia Kingdom could have been cultivated continuously? Previously, it was only because of the limitations of my bloodline that I couldn't cultivate it anymore?"
Many thoughts flashed through his mind.
"Perhaps, this is the most magical part of the Daofather Technique?"
Lu Qingshan gradually became excited.
Without thinking too much, he immediately poured his experience points into the Technique.
He could not wait to take a peek at the scenery of the Ten Flower Realm.
After a while, the Nascent Soul in his Dantian began to glow.
Spiritual power surged and was extremely blazing.
In the Nascent Soul, the nine Golden Lotuses began to sway.
They constantly flickered with luster, spewing out bursts of colorful clouds, and releasing wisps of Essence Qi.
His Dantian was illuminated with incomparable brilliance.
Beside the Nine Golden Lotuses, a new lotus silhouette appeared at this moment.
Its shape was vague and hazy, and it could not be seen clearly.
This was the embryonic form of the tenth flower.
His originally incomparably vigorous spiritual power began to increase after the appearance of the tenth flower.
Lu Qingshan advanced triumphantly all the way, and his power, which had reached the peak of the Void Refinement realm, began to increase again at this time.
Unparalleled power.
The increase in power this time far exceeded the increase in combat power that could be achieved by any of the previous small realms.
After a short while.
Only then did he once again sense the bottleneck that limited his power increase.
Lu Qingshan understood that this was his current limit.
After reaching the limit, the boiling spiritual power in his Dantian began to stabilize, and the divine light gradually dissipated. The hazy tenth flower also disappeared into the void like a bubble, as if it had never existed.
However, he knew that the tenth flower was only temporarily hidden because it could not fully form.
The increase in his power was real and would not disappear.
Lu Qingshan opened his eyes, and a lightning-like light flashed in his eyes. It was so bright that it was shocking.
"You have consumed 15,000,000 experience points. You have a new understanding of the Scripture of Da Xia Kingdom (Void Refinement) …"
"The Scripture of Da Xia Kingdom (Void Refinement) has a new improvement. The upper limit of your spiritual power value has increased by 600,000!"
…
…
New power was born from nothingness. Lu Qingshan felt that he was extremely enriched, and his spiritual power had expanded a lot like a tide.
This was a terrifying increase.
The Void Refinement realm had nine flowers. Each flower only increased the upper limit of one's spiritual power value by 250,000.
This time, his upper limit of spiritual power value directly increased by 600,000!
He also finally understood why he had never heard of anyone who had bloomed the tenth flower of the Void Refinement realm.
After all, although the bloodline restriction existed, there were bound to be talented people who were born without this restriction after so many years in the human race.
The reason why no one had ever reached this realm was entirely because this Ten Flower Realm was too difficult.
The tenth flower was completely different from the previous nine flowers. It was as if they were two different realms.
One had to know that from the early stage of the Void Refinement realm to the Nine Flower Realm, he had only spent a total of 46,300,000 experience points.
Now, he had only cultivated the embryonic form of the tenth flower of the Void Refinement realm, but he had already spent a total of 15,000,000 experience points.
One could only imagine how much experience points one would need in order to truly bloom ten flowers.
It was fine if he had the experience points, but for others, even without this restriction, how much effort and time would it take to cultivate the tenth flower?
…
However, it was all worth it.
The power of the tenth flower of the Void Refinement realm was far greater than the previous nine flowers, which made Lu Qingshan extremely satisfied.
He believed that on the day when all ten flowers bloomed, he would look down on the Void Refinement realm and dominate the world. He would even be able to easily kill a Soul Formation realm cultivator!
However, this was destined to be an extremely difficult path.
"Blood Spirit Crystals, I want Blood Spirit Crystals. I need more Blood Spirit Crystals!" Lu Qingshan's eyes were burning as he clenched his fists.
After seeing the tip of the iceberg of the Ten Flower Realm's power, his desire for Blood Spirit Crystals had reached a new peak.
He needed more Blood Spirit Crystals to completely break the limits of his bloodline.
Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan frowned. "But where else can I get Blood Spirit Crystals?"
Blood Spirit Crystals were too precious.
It was already a pleasant surprise to be able to "borrow" three from Ying Mingyue.
If it weren't for the fact that her father, Shi Wu Devil, was dying soon, Ying Mingyue wouldn't have so many Blood Spirit Crystals.
As the most important strategic resource of the Demons, the Demons' control of Blood Spirit Crystals was unimaginably strict.
It was too difficult to obtain more Blood Spirit Crystals!
.....
On the other side, Lu Qingshan had just made a new breakthrough. The storm of his "arrogance" had already fermented to an uncontrollable point.
Demons were warlike, and the internal competition for resources was extremely fierce. They couldn't tolerate other people's arrogance the most.
Not to mention that such an arrogant person was a son-in-law from a king's realm!
How dare a country bumpkin marry into our king's bloodline be so arrogant?
This made the people in the royal city extremely uncomfortable.
Finally, someone couldn't sit still and started to move.
There was an old Demon Lord in the royal city. He sent a subordinate with the battle strength of a novice Demon General to "Qing Ge"'s residence to challenge him.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on him.
"Finally, someone wants to teach this son-in-law a lesson!"
As they wished, Lu Qingshan accepted the challenge.
However, the final result of this battle was far beyond everyone's imagination.
The 'Azure Spear' that they looked down on, in less than ten moves, was actually directly beheaded by that initial-rank Devil General.
"That's it?" Lu Qingshan uttered new arrogant words to everyone who was paying attention to this battle.
"I heard that the strength of the people in Jianluo Royal City far surpasses that of our king's realm.
Now that I see it, it's true that hearing about them can't compare to meeting them in person! "
This time, the people in the royal city were even more furious.
Because Lu Qingshan's words were a group attack, directly targeting everyone in the royal city.
It was like saying that some men had no bottom line, but if you directly said that all men had no bottom line, which man would be happy to hear that?
For the same reason, even the people in the royal city who didn't care about this matter at first couldn't help but scold. "He only won one battle, and he dares to be so arrogant?"
"Arrogance is the precursor to destruction!"
"Anyone else can come and extinguish his arrogance!" Someone shouted, "I can't stand his face anymore."
In the residence.
Lu Qingshan returned victorious.
When he was still in the Four Flower Realm, he could force Qing Ge to use all his means.
Now that his cultivation had reached the Nine Flower Realm and had improved further, he could easily crush a novice Demon General, even if he couldn't use many of his Sword Cultivator techniques.
After all, many techniques in the Sword Dao were common.
He opened the panel.
On the panel, small fiery words flickered.
"You've killed a novice Demon General!"
"You've gained experience: 4 million!"
Others didn't dare to kill him because of his identity, but Lu Qingshan didn't have such scruples.
Unless the person who challenged him was also a Venerable One's son, he would have to show mercy.
Otherwise, he would carry out his words of "kill one if one comes, kill a pair if two come".
Offend people?
He wasn't afraid.
Besides, he didn't even have to do anything, and the "monsters" would come to him for him to farm. Who could resist such temptation?
It just so happened that he also needed to save up a wave of experience points to prepare for the Ten Flower Realm — after squandering, he only had 15 million experience points left of his original 80 million experience points.
This kind of wonderful thing that could make his reputation, make it convenient for him to do things, and earn experience points, why not?
Therefore, he became more and more arrogant.
… …..
A piece of news quickly spread throughout the city.
"Demon General Yuquan has made his move. He's currently outside the residence of the son-in-law, waiting for the son-in-law to accept the challenge!"
Outside Lu Qingshan's residence.
A middle-aged Demon Cultivator with a strange appearance stood and said loudly, "I heard that His Highness Qing Ge claims to be invincible in the same realm.
Although I, Yuquan, am much older than His Highness, I'm helpless. Now, I'm the same as His Highness, a novice Demon General. Therefore, I challenge His Highness here. Does His Highness dare to accept the challenge? "
"If you don't, please take back what you said earlier and apologize to the people of the capital!" Demon General Yuquan said in a deep voice.
"Good, well said!" The people who were paying attention to the situation couldn't help but praise.
"This is the strength and confidence of the people of the capital!"
"Demon General Yuquan was once a high-level Demon General, but he was injured later and his realm regressed, returning to a novice Demon General.
However, he has the eyesight and rich experience of a high-level Demon General. He's one of the best among the novice Demon Generals.
I heard that because he was worried that his injuries would relapse, he hasn't fought for a long time. I didn't expect this son-in-law to alarm him! "
"If he wasn't so arrogant, how could he fall into such a situation?"
Someone gloated. "He angered Demon General Yuquan to the point that he would rather his injuries relapse to destroy his prestige!"
"Actually, Demon General Yuquan fought because he's the subordinate of the Origin Tiger Demon Lord."
"So what if he's the subordinate of the Origin Tiger Demon Lord? Could it be that this son-in-law offended the Origin Tiger Demon Lord?" Someone didn't understand.
"Have you forgotten? The Origin Tiger Demon Lord once proposed marriage to Shi Wu Demon Lord. He wanted his eldest son to marry Ying Mingyue, but was rejected by the Demon Lord … "
"I understand. He's settling old and new grudges together. There's going to be a good show!"
While everyone was discussing, a cold voice came from Qing Ge's mansion.
"Okay!"
Qing Ge accepted the challenge!
Lu Qingshan quickly walked out of the mansion.
Flying was not allowed in Jianluo Capital City, and similarly, private fights were not allowed.
However, in such a huge capital, disputes were unavoidable. Therefore, if one wanted to fight, one had to go to a special military arena.
…
"Today, I'll let you know the strength of the people in the capital!" On the military arena, Demon General Yuquan looked at Lu Qingshan and said in a low voice.
His hands, which were formed by blades, shone with a cold light.
With a solemn face, he rushed toward Lu Qingshan as soon as he finished speaking.
He was so fast that one could only see two rays of cold light from his blades!
Lu Qingshan was calm and composed, unhurried.
With the black blood in his hand, the dark golden sword threads on the sword shone slightly.
In the next moment, he exhaled a mouthful of turbid air and rushed forward. His speed was also shockingly fast.
Even though Demon General Yuquan was mentally prepared, he was still shocked when he saw Lu Qingshan's terrifying speed.
To be able to kill a Demon Cultivator of the same level within ten moves, this son-in-law of his was indeed something.
"But this is what makes it interesting. If you're nothing, you won't be worth my time." Demon General Yuquan licked his lips, and his eyes were burning with fighting spirit.
Since he was injured, he hadn't fought for a long time. His hands were itching for a fight.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them were almost overlapping.
Demon General Yuquan waved his hands, and two rays of resplendent blade light shone. It was dazzling and intoxicating.
The highest level of weapon control was to use it as one's own arms.
As for Demon General Yuquan, his arms were his weapons. That was his advantage.
"Qing Ge, your sword skills are high. But no matter how good you are at using the sword, can you be better than me using my arms?" Demon General Yuquan was proud of himself.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Lu Qingshan's figure became blurry at this moment. It was as though he had teleported, and he flashed past one of the rays of blade light.
With a clang, his sword blocked the other ray of blade light, which was in front of Demon General Yuquan's right arm.
The ferocious sword was terrifyingly powerful. It actually pushed back Demon General Yuquan's right arm.
Then, the aura on the black blood became stronger. It accelerated in the air and regenerated its strength. It slashed toward Demon General Yuquan's neck.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The sword shadow was like lightning, and it was mighty.
Demon General Yuquan's expression changed.
Lu Qingshan's move was, in fact, the quadruple acceleration of the Seven Deadly Swordsmanship.
However, other people only used quadruple acceleration to increase the power and speed of their sword moves.
Lu Qingshan, on the other hand, played around with these four layers of acceleration and dismantled them. After blocking the Jade Spring Demonic General's attack, he used the last two layers of acceleration to create a strange effect where a new force was born right after the old force was exhausted.
Demon General Yuquan didn't have such a move. He couldn't retract his strength and couldn't defend in time.
The Jade Spring Demon General's heart trembled. In the blink of an eye, the color of his neck changed drastically. It looked exactly the same as his blade-like arms.
This was the foundation of his Godfiend Body. It could turn part of his skin into an indestructible metal.
Boom!
Lu Qingshan's sword finally arrived.
Even though Demon General Yuquan reacted in time, he was still forced to retreat.
However, he managed to block the attack.
Demon General Yuquan was glad!
However, the sword in Lu Qingshan's hand became even brighter!
Whoosh!
There was another sound of wind tearing through space.
It was another acceleration!
Lu Qingshan's figure followed closely. The Black Blood Sword in his hand carried a powerful aura. It sped up again, and its power increased to a terrifying level.
His heart was filled with killing intent. The sword shadows formed a golden light and pierced toward Demon General Yuquan's forehead.
Puff!
The sound of a longsword entering a body was heard.
Immediately after, the dark golden sword threads on the black blood took the opportunity to explode. They drilled into Demon General Yuquan's mind and blasted his head apart!
A cloud of blood mist exploded in the air.
Demon General Yuquan's headless corpse fell to the ground.
Lu Qingshan slowly retracted his sword. He stood with his sword in hand, his eyes cold.
His Seven Deadly Swordsmanship had made another breakthrough and reached the quadruple acceleration realm. He was only two steps away from the Seven Deadly Swordsmanship.
In the previous move, he had used an extremely powerful burst of power.
Then, through his skillful use of sword techniques and the force execution techniques of Wind Slayer and Heaven Suppressing Secret Sword, he was able to break down the five acceleration stages of Seven Ultimate Techniques into three continuous attacks that were much more powerful than before. Thus, he achieved the so-called instant kill!
…
Everyone was stunned!
In their eyes, Demon General Yuquan, who was one of the few powerhouses among the low-level Demon Generals, had died faster than the previous challenger!
In just one move, his head had fallen to the ground.
No, it was more appropriate to say that his head had disappeared!
"One move was enough to determine the winner, so the difference in combat power is not too obvious.
However, the difference in skill between the two is like the difference between a three-year-old child and an adult. "
Shi Wu Demon Venerable, who was secretly watching the battle, saw this scene and could not help but murmur, "He is no longer purely practicing the Seven Deadly Swordsmanship. He has even turned this swordsmanship into his own. He has an extraordinary understanding of it, which is completely different from other people's Seven Deadly Swordsmanship. He is also much stronger.
I can't be sure about other things, but in terms of swordsmanship, he can really be said to be invincible among his peers. "
With his eyesight, he could naturally see that in this one-sided battle, "Qing Ge" did not show his extraordinary cultivation. He had completely crushed Demon General Yuquan with his skills.
This was the Demon Venerable's evaluation!
Unfortunately, no one could hear it for now.
.....
Lu Qingshan, who had received another four million experience points, stood proudly on the military platform. He did not leave like before. Instead, he said loudly, "Too weak, too weak. I'm not satisfied yet!"
"Is there anyone else in the Royal City? To be honest, I'm a little tired of walking back and forth. If there's anyone who is not convinced, you can come now. I'll accept all of your challenges! "
Although his voice was loud, his expression was very calm.
However, it was such a calm attitude that made him seem even more arrogant.
Everyone's faces were ashen. They were shocked and furious.
He had done it again!
Damn it! Damn it!
However, no matter how unwilling they were, they had to admit that this "adopted son-in-law" did have some real skills. He was not someone who could be easily defeated by ordinary people.
They needed a real powerhouse to appear and defeat "Qing Ge"!
