Broken Bull's Ears?
Let's not talk about whether it was true. Even if it was true, so what?
His ability to control tens of thousands of swords was definitely the work of a Sword Immortal. It could not be faked at all.
One had to know that each of the long swords hanging above Beicang City was of extraordinary quality. Each of them was a superior Dharma Artifact.
Ordinary cultivators could only control around three magic tools at the same time. Once the number of magic tools exceeded ten, it was inevitable that they would be unable to do anything at the same time.
Beyond that, it was rare to be able to control twenty Dharma Artifacts at the same time, let alone a hundred. One had to have an extremely powerful Primordial Spirit and a profound cultivation to be able to do so.
But what was Li Qiubai doing now?
It was not a hundred swords.
It was not a thousand swords.
It was tens of thousands of swords.
On the ship, Lu Qingshan looked up at the scene and could not help but sigh, "There is only one Sword Will in the world. Li Qiubai's talent is unparalleled. He alone has eight Dippers."
Li Qiubai was not controlling the swords with his Primordial Spirit.
Even a Celestial Being could not control tens of thousands of swords with his Primordial Spirit.
He was controlling the swords with his Sword Will.
He was controlling tens of thousands of swords with his dense Sword Will, creating the scene of tens of thousands of swords returning to their master.
Mystic Enlightening, Divine Enlightening, Heavenly Enlightening.
Lu Qingshan was in a daze.
This was a true Sword Immortal.
It was said that Li Qiubai was the most arrogant of the three Sword Immortals.
With such a superb Sword Immortal skill, so what if he was childless?
…
"Why is everyone better than the other!" In the River of Forgetfulness, Gu Yiyi's eyes were red. She groaned helplessly.
She had thought that she had learned a lot, but now it seemed that she still had a lot of room for improvement.
The studious Gu Yiyi secretly memorized Li Qiubai's lines in a small notebook in her heart.
The problem was that it was not difficult to memorize lines. The difficult part was to say them out loud.
What was required was to have the ability to dominate the crowd.
Unfortunately, she did not have that ability.
Damn it!
Gu Yiyi sighed with envy.
She really admired these Sword Immortals!
…
Under Li Qiubai's pressure of swords, Li Qiubai forced them to separate.
The next moment.
A beam of rainbow light rose from the inner city of Beicang City like a comet. It stopped a few hundred feet in front of Li Qiubai.
The beam of rainbow light.
A tall and sturdy middle-aged man appeared. He had white hair and a white beard, and he was dressed in a black robe. His appearance was not eye-catching, but his posture was proud, and his aura was as deep as the abyss.
.....
His expression was tranquil, and his expression was the same as usual. In fact, the agitation in his heart did not belong to anyone else.
The higher one's cultivation base was, the more one could understand the heroic spirit of Li Qiubai's immortal work.
...
......
............................................
Xu Su sensed with her heart, only to discover that Li Qiubai's aura was fluctuating erratically, as if he was in an extremely special state. It was impossible to tell whether he was at level eight or level nine.
.......................
The rain of swords in the city was the Sword Tomb's swords.
"Swords chime in the tomb. Today, I'm just shouting." Li Qiubai, who was standing a few hundred feet away from Xu Su, smiled.
Xu Su's face stiffened. He suppressed his anger and said, "Li Qiubai, the Sword Tomb is not to be trifled with.
Ten thousand years ago, I was defeated by your sword, and I'm convinced.
But I've changed since then. You might not be able to defeat me today. How dare you be so arrogant? "
"If that's the case, let's fight." Li Qiubai was unhurried.
'If you're not convinced, I'll fight you.'
How simple was that?
How simple was that?
"Do you really think I'm afraid of you?" Xu Su shouted angrily.
Xu Su's body shone with golden light. He looked like a sun as he blasted into the sky.
"Li Qiubai, let's fight in the sky!" Xu Su's voice came from the sky.
Sword Immortals and Martial Emperors were both at the ninth and a half level. They were the strongest in the world.
For a battle of this level, if they didn't find a spacious place far away from the world, even the slightest ripple could cause corpses to litter the land.
Above Beicang City, Nascent Soul, Void Refinement, Soul Formation, and Body Integration cultivators were all looking at the battle.
"Swords, rise!" Li Qiubai shouted.
The myriad of swords that hung high above Beicang City turned around successively and emitted their own brilliance as they lined up in a row. They were like a tide, like a dragon that was vast and boundless, and the veil of swords was endless.
Li Qiubai took the lead and jumped to the front of the swords. As if he was riding on the head of a dragon, he rode his sword into the sky.
A battle between legends!
Both of them were as fast as the wind and rain. Soon, they broke through the sky and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Just as the crowd was subconsciously looking up at the sky to see the battle between the two pinnacle existences, there was another matter that shook the world on this day.
On the latest Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow Rankings released by the Heavenly Secrets Temple, Lu Qingshan, who was the fourth most powerful cultivator, was ranked as the fifth most powerful cultivator in just a year.
He was a peerless genius!
.....
In the battle of Green Plateau Mountain, Lu Qingshan killed the River Wyrm King in front of everyone.
However, the Human Domain was too big and Green Plateau Mountain was too small. Hence, even with such a remarkable battle record, Lu Qingshan's name spread very slowly.
However, that wasn't a problem.
Others might not have noticed this news, but the Heavenly Secrets Temple wouldn't miss it.
They captured this key piece of information. After confirming it, they quickly revised the Xuan Rankings and spread the news to the seven human domains through the Xuan Rankings, which was the most widely spread channel.
When they found out that the Xuan Rankings were updated, many people were surprised.
"Today isn't the day that the four rankings are updated?"
"The four rankings are usually updated according to a fixed time limit. There's only one situation where the rankings will be updated in advance."
"It's just that this situation hasn't happened for a long time, so everyone has forgotten about it …"
When someone pointed it out, everyone reacted. They swallowed and said, "The Xuan Rankings have changed!"
The Heavenly Secrets Temple would only announce the rankings in advance when there was a drastic change in the rankings.
'Did something big happen?'
This thought popped up in everyone's mind.
Behind the changes in the rankings, it must mean that something big had happened.
'It's time!'
They couldn't hold back their excitement and quickly looked at the reflecting wall that projected the rankings.
They searched along the way.
Their expressions gradually turned to shock.
"It doesn't seem to have changed much? It's just that everyone's rankings have moved back by one place … "someone murmured.
Then, he suddenly came to a realization.
If it wasn't an exception, then it meant that …
Finally, everyone's burning gaze focused on the Xuan Rankings.
.....
Name: Lu Qingshan
Ranking: First on the Xuan Rankings
Cultivation Base: Complete Void Refinement. Cultivates both inner and outer swords. His swordsmanship is shocking and unparalleled.
Battle Record: Has the title of Strongest Four Realms. A year ago, he reached the Void Refinement realm. A month ago, he defeated a peak rank-six great demon king with three swords at Green Plateau Mountain. His true combat strength is immeasurable.
Title: Strongest Four Realms, Strongest Five Realms
…
Everyone present turned pale with fright!
Since the birth of the Heavenly Secrets Four Rankings, no one had climbed to the top of the rankings.
This was the first time this had ever happened.
This wasn't because the Heavenly Secrets Observatory didn't have good information.
The truth was that the situation was too strange.
A cultivator who had just reached the Void Refinement realm not long ago had disappeared for almost a year. When he reappeared, he already possessed such combat strength.
What kind of concept was this?
This was something that no one could find a reasonable explanation for even if they racked their brains.
Everyone felt that this world was incomprehensible.
The cultivators who heard the news couldn't help but be dazed for a moment.
They vaguely remembered that the first time they heard the name Lu Qingshan was four years ago.
At that time, this person had won the title of champion of the first Seven Regions Dao Symposium with his late-stage Golden Elixir cultivation base. Since then, his name had spread throughout the seven regions.
Back then, some people had high hopes for the title of champion of the Seven Regions Dao Symposium, while others had disdained it.
However, no matter who it was, they would never have thought that this name would become like this four years later.
Even in the long history of the human race, the probability of a Void Refinement realm cultivator defeating a Divine Transformation realm cultivator was extremely low.
As for someone like Lu Qingshan who killed a peak Sixth Rank Great Demon King with three strikes, it was even more unheard of.
"It really was three strikes. Did a Void Refinement realm cultivator really kill a Sixth Rank Great Demon King?"
The news spread like wildfire like a virus.
The various regions, great families, great sects, and even the foreign battlefields quickly received the news. They were all shocked by this news.
"A peak Sixth Rank Flood Dragon King couldn't even block three strikes from Lu Qingshan?"
"Is he really a Void Refinement realm cultivator?"
"Shouldn't the question be, was he really just a Nascent Soul cultivator a year ago?"
"The Sword Sect's Lu Qingshan?"
"He went from the strongest Fourth Rank to the strongest Fifth Rank in a year. This person must have a great secret and a great opportunity. If I can obtain it …" Some dark and obscure gazes secretly aimed at Lu Qingshan.
…
Heavenly Mountain's Jade Gate Pass.
Xia Daoyun also received the news immediately.
She had always paid close attention to her first disciple's growth.
"Qingshan …" Her red lips parted slightly as she spoke slowly.
Xia Daoyun wasn't too surprised that Lu Qingshan had reached the strongest Fifth Rank.
When she asked Lu Qingshan about Lu Qingshan, she already knew about his background.
However, when she saw her disciple's achievements, she couldn't help but feel a bit proud. A faint smile appeared on her face.
"Daoyun." A resounding voice suddenly sounded by Xia Daoyun's ear.
"Old Sect Master," Xia Daoyun replied. Her voice was clear and cold, like the tinkling of a mountain spring.
"The next time Lu Qingshan comes to Jade Gate Pass, bring him to see me," the resounding voice said.
Even Sword Immortal Qingyun paid close attention to Lu Qingshan's meteoric rise from the strongest Fourth Rank to the strongest Fifth Rank in a single year.
From this, one could see just how terrifying and sensational this was.
"Understood," Xia Daoyun said softly.
.....
Green Cloud Palace.
Sword Immortal Qingyun sat cross-legged, retracting his gaze.
"To think that they're able to do something like this …" Although Xie Qingyun was the master of the Sword Sect, most of his attention was placed on Jade Gate Pass. The survival of his race was tied to him, and he would at most occasionally pay attention to the situation of the younger generation of sword cultivators in the sect.
That was why even though Lu Qingshan had already made a name for himself before this, he didn't pay much attention to him. Only now did he truly begin to pay attention to him.
The Heavenly Dao was fair. No matter how many resources a cultivator was given, even if they could raise their cultivation in a short period of time, it would be extremely difficult for them to keep up with their cultivation in terms of battle prowess.
Not only did he go from the early stage of the Void Tempering Realm to the peak of the Void Tempering Realm in a single year, he even reached first place on the Profound Ranking, seizing the title of the strongest Fifth Rank.
"Interesting," Sword Immortal Qingyun muttered. Then, he closed his eyes, no longer thinking about Lu Qingshan's matters.
Recently, the Demons had been making a lot of movements. They seemed to be making a big move.
Also, the news that Xia Daoyun brought back made him start investigating the Spirit Huan Sect. However, he discovered that he had come into contact with a bottomless pool. There were countless poisonous snakes and reefs in the pool. It was full of danger.
These were all more important matters …
.....
Da Xia Kingdom.
Xia Daojing held a jade scroll in her hand.
The jade scroll contained the latest information on the Profound Ranking.
On her round face, her eyes were affectionate and charming, sparkling and translucent.
"Interesting." She tapped the table lightly as she muttered to herself.
A moment later, a sweet smile appeared on her charming and affectionate face. "My good little sister, you've really taken in a good disciple. I'm quite moved by him."
Before, she had only noticed Lu Qingshan because of Xia Daoyun. Now, she was completely paying attention to him because of Lu Qingshan himself.
.....
In a hidden abyss.
"What's going on!? Why isn't that Lu Qingshan dead yet? "
A voice that was laced with anger sounded.
"I don't know either. Logically speaking, he should have died a long time ago …"
"Let's not talk about why he's not dead first. Since he's still alive, does that mean that our situation might have been exposed?" Another voice sounded.
"That's very likely."
"Then what should we do?"
“.....”
.....
In short, pulling one hair would affect the whole situation. Lu Qingshan reappeared in front of everyone as the strongest of the Five Realms. The impact it brought was not as simple as just shocking the Human Realm.
There were many threads that were affected, both in the open and in the dark.
.....
Beicang City.
No one saw the battle at Green Styx.
However, everyone still raised their heads and watched.
Two hours later.
Two streaks of light descended from the sky and appeared before everyone's eyes again.
Li Qiubai and Xu Su.
There were no injuries on their bodies. Their clothes were neat and tidy. They did not look like they had fought at Green Styx. Instead, they looked like they had gone for a stroll.
"Did they fight? Who won and who lost? "Everyone was paying attention to the result.
"Hmph!" Xu Su and Li Qiubai faced each other from a distance. She snorted coldly. "Li Qiubai, you've gone against the Heavenly Dao. Even if you've gained something now, you're still on the wrong path. You'll meet with a dead end, and you'll never attain the Great Dao!"
"What about the Heavenly Dao? I've never cared. "Li Qiubai's voice was rich. He did not care about Xu Su's words at all.
Sword cultivators only needed to wield their swords. They did not care about the Heavenly Dao.
The Heavenly Dao was never the Sword Cultivator's Dao.
"You've already made a mistake once, and you're still going to make a mistake again. Stubborn!" Xu Su said in a deep voice.
"Made a mistake once?" Li Qiubai spread his hands and smiled. "That's just what you think."
Xu Su shuddered when she heard that. Her eyes widened, and she froze in midair.
Sword Immortal Chang 'an, who had just fought a Martial Emperor on Green Styx, no longer spoke to Xu Su. He descended slowly and landed on the big ship, leaving the Beicang City cultivators with a lonely but not lonely figure.
Seeing that Li Qiubai was about to turn around and leave, the crowd on Beicang City's city wall sighed.
There was no other reason. The pressure from the flying swords hovering above the city was too great.
Their only regret was that they did not get to witness the battle between the Martial Emperor and the Sword Immortal.
The battle between the peak body cultivator of the Xu Family who specialized in Divine Abilities and martial skills and the Sword Immortal Chang 'an whose sword path was unparalleled under the heavens would undoubtedly be the most magnificent and exciting battle.
'What a pity.'
They thought.
"Looks like the Sword Immortal Chang 'an has won …" Many people had figured out something from the brief conversation between Xu Su and Li Qiubai.
However, just when everyone was feeling relieved, Xu Su, who was hovering in midair, showed a panicked expression for the first time. She suddenly said angrily to Li Qiubai on the big ship, "Li Qiubai, what are you going to do?"
Li Qiubai laughed loudly and said, "If you take it without asking, you'll be regarded as a thief. I'll return my sword to Beicang! “
The moment he set foot on the deck of the big ship …
Two energy swords shot out and propelled the big ship into the distance.
Behind him, countless shadows tore through the clouds and descended from the sky under the horrified gazes of the Northern Blue cultivators.
It was the descent of tens of thousands of swords.
A few flying swords.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The flying swords were as fast as lightning and caught everyone off guard.
A black sword pierced three feet into the ground of Beicang.
A red sword pierced three inches in front of a Beicang body cultivator. It almost brushed past him, causing him to break out in cold sweat. In truth, it did not hurt him at all.
A long sword that shone with a cold light shot to the top of the city wall and stabbed into it.
The tens of thousands of swords each had their own destination.
They fell like stars.
In the end, a famous Beicang sword named Great Frost fell from the sky like a shooting star. It pierced through the sky like a rainbow and stabbed into the Sword Tomb at the center of the inner city.
Ferocious energy swords crisscrossed on Great Frost like lightning. Qi surged on the blade.
Boom!
The Sword Tomb that had stood in Beicang City for many years and was regarded as the symbol of Beicang began to shatter inch by inch under the descent of Great Frost.
Finally.
Amidst the dust and smoke, the Sword Tomb sizzled and crumbled into rubble and dust.
Li Qiubai's return of Beicang's sword did not harm a single person. However, the deterrence it brought was rarely seen in the world.
The sword toppled the five mountains, and the sword toppled the stars.
From now on, Beicang would only have the Xu Family. There would no longer be a Sword Tomb.
