Five thousand miles outside the Tianluo Mountains.
The sword light controlled by Lu Qingshan suddenly stopped.
Vaguely, a hazy light flashed without warning between the high clouds.
A moment later.
A group of dark shadows appeared in Lu Qingshan's sight.
The leader was a cultivator with a stern look on his face, and the aura of the perfect state of transformation was surging from his body.
Behind him there are more than thirty Jindan cultivators, each of whom is at least in the late Jindan stage.
An extremely terrifying murderous intent burst out from the eyes of the leading monk. The moment he appeared, he pounced towards Lu Qingshan without hesitation at an extremely fast speed.
At the same time, a sinister and rampant demonic energy suddenly burst out from his body.
The next moment, his skin turned blue-black, snake wings grew on his back, and horns like branches grew on his head. His aura surged and expanded several times again.
This is the special ability possessed by the demon cultivator who has been reborn with the blood of the demon clan - demonization.
There was no face-to-face nonsense.
He suddenly appeared and attacked fiercely.
Because the night is long and dreams are many, there is no point in talking nonsense.
But that’s not all.
The space in the other direction was also filled with emptiness.
Nearly forty more Divine Transformation cultivators appeared.
at this time.
"Those are people from the Southern Region." The Blood Wing Marquis, who was hiding in the dark and monitoring Lu Qingshan's whereabouts, frowned, "People from the Northern and Southern Regions are here. We can't wait any longer, or they will get away with it."
Although Lu Qingshan was already five thousand miles away from Tianji Temple, he was suspicious by nature and was still not at ease.
Marquis Xueyi originally planned to wait until Lu Qingshan was farther away before letting the monks from the Soul-Seeking Division take action.
But the current situation has forced him into a desperate situation.
He wanted to wait a little longer, but others didn't have the patience.
Once Lu Qingshan dies at the hands of other domains and the Taoist artifact is taken away, it will be harder than ascending to heaven for them in the Western Region to snatch it back, and they will inevitably be blamed by the Lord of the Domain.
The Blood Wing Marquis thought about it and stopped waiting. He immediately notified his own men who were hiding in the dark, "Take action immediately."
After receiving the order, the monks from the Western Region Soul-Seeking Division hurriedly headed towards Lu Qingshan.
boom!
boom!
This way.
Lu Qingshan narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the demon cultivator who was bursting with demonic energy and pouncing towards him like a demon beast, and snorted coldly.
"Ten Thousand Swords Technique."
Thousands of sword energy threads suddenly spread out from his body and shot towards the demon cultivator who was approaching like a god like swordfish.
"Poisonous Demon Thorn!" Mingshi, the leader of this group of Northern Territory Underworld monks, whispered in his heart.
A virtual black mist flashed out from his mind and formed into a drill-like object, which instantly passed through the void and drilled into Lu Qingshan's mind.
"Spiritual attack?" Lu Qingshan felt the virtual black mist entering his body and was extremely calm.
What he fears least is the attack from the soul.
Lu Qingshan's will was extremely firm. The mini version of Lu Qingshan sitting cross-legged in his sea of ​​consciousness suddenly emitted golden light from his eyes, and a beam of golden flame shot out from them.
Soul fire, also known as the flame of the spirit.
The unique method of the soul realm spirit.
Buzz!
The black mist that was coming with such force that it was about to invade Lu Qingshan's soul shook slightly and turned into nothingness under Lu Qingshan's soul flame.
Ming E, who was getting closer and closer to Lu Qingshan, found that Lu Qingshan's eyes were clear, with a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
This was the magical power he gained after being reborn with the blood of the demon clan. It was extremely powerful. Even when dealing with cultivators of the same realm, he was often invincible. But it had no effect on Lu Qingshan at all?
This surprised him greatly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At this time, the sword energy emitted by Lu Qingshan had already shot towards Mingshi.
His demonized body, which was surrounded by demonic energy, shook violently as if it was burning.
Threads of sword energy fell rapidly, in such huge numbers that they were like streams of light arrows, completely locking down the space around him.
Puff puff puff!
After penetrating the black fog around him, the sword energy instantly pierced into Mingshi's body, like thousands of arrows piercing his body, and fine beads of blood oozed out.
This time, Ming Shi felt so much pain that his eyes widened.
He could feel that the fluctuations on these sword energy threads were not strong, and were only generated by the weak spiritual power, so he did not take it too seriously.
But who could have imagined that these sword energy threads actually contained an extremely sharp penetrating power.
Moreover, it is clearly just spiritual power, but it is so powerful and pure that it can be compared to Yuanli.
It was because of this momentary carelessness that he suffered .
However, although he was surprised, he was not too panicked.
If he didn't have one or two tricks up his sleeve, how could he be called the strongest in the five realms? Would they have sent out such a large number of Divine Transformation cultivators?
A flash of blood appeared on Mingshi's body, and the tiny wounds healed instantly.
"Come on, attack together and take it down in one blow!" Mingshi shouted in a low voice, his eyes full of anger.
At his command, the cultivators from the Northern Territory's Underworld took action one after another.
Balls of black sand appeared in their hands.
Immediately, they threw out the black sand quickly.
"Black Sand River!"
The sound of Eclipse rumbled.
This is a magic weapon they specially prepared to deal with Lu Qingshan. It is made of Xuanming sand and gravel. Each grain weighs a thousand pounds and is indestructible.
Correspondingly, the magic power required to activate these black sands is also extremely huge, so many work together to unleash the full power of this magic weapon.
As soon as the black sand was thrown out, it instantly expanded, dispersed, and merged into a huge river. Every grain of black sand was shining brightly, and the power was so great that it rolled towards Lu Qingshan.
The power within it is so terrifying that it is hard to imagine.
This is a terrifying magical weapon that requires more than thirty Jindan monks to activate together.
"Lu Qingshan, die and hand over your Taoist weapon!"
It only took a moment from the time when Mingshi's attack failed and he was slightly injured to the time when he decisively launched the "Black Sand River" magic weapon.
On the other side, the cultivator from the Southern Region Underworld, who appeared almost at the same time as them, saw this scene, and his expression began to change drastically before Lu Qingshan's.
"Damn it, the Northern Underworld wants to seize the Taoist weapon in one fell swoop." Ma Zhuo, the leading monk from the Southern Underworld, looked at the upside-down Black Sand River from afar, his eyes filled with anger.
He would not be willing to hand over the Taoist weapon to the Northern Territory Underworld.
At this time, in the Black Sand River, there were huge gravel whirlpools one after another, like millstones, ready to grind away everything and crush Lu Qingshan.
Thunder roared in the air, boiling like waves crashing against the shore, and the impact was extremely fierce.
Lu Qingshan's eyes narrowed, not daring to be careless.
boom!
A blazing red sword light flew out of the body.
Dragon Bird!
The Dragon Sparrow Sword emitted a buzzing sound, a red light became diffused, and a luxurious golden dragon-shaped pattern emerged.
A moment later, divine light reflected on the dragon bird, and the shadow of a blue dragon roared out.
The sword breathes the dragon's breath.
Like a red sun exploding.
Endless flames rushed towards the sweeping Black Sand River.
boom!
The two collided violently, and brilliant rain of light suddenly flew everywhere.
The sky was filled with sparks and black sand.
This is a top-notch confrontation of magical powers.
Mingshi let out a loud cry, and the mighty river evolved from the black sand was instantly shattered by Lu Qingshan's attack.
He was greatly shocked and shouted, "Concentrate again!"
Under his orders, the cultivators in the Northern Territory's Underworld mobilized their energy with great force, their bodies glowed, and they tried their best to control the scattered black sand, thus condensing into a black sand river again.
Ming Shi, who was thought to be within easy reach, now had a solemn look on his face.
This Lu Qingshan is even more powerful than the rumors say! Beyond his imagination!
The Southern Region monks standing by were looking at the dragon bird floating in the air with burning eyes, full of greed.
“Is this the power of a Dao weapon?”
The magic weapon activated by more than thirty Jindan monks ended in a draw in the confrontation with Lu Qingshan, who had only the cultivation level of Lianxu.
They didn't think Lu Qingshan could be that strong.
There was no doubt that it was all because of the sword.
That is the Taoist weapon.
Too powerful, a Taoist weapon!
They all marveled in their hearts.
"Take action!" The cultivators from the Southern Region's Underworld reacted quickly. Seeing that Mingshi had not yet achieved his goal, they hurriedly followed.
At this moment, more than sixty Jindan cultivators attacked together in an instant.
The lineup is unprecedentedly large.
Lu Qingshan's expression gradually became solemn.
If more than sixty Jindan monks came one by one, he could handle them.
But if they attack together, it will indeed bring him great trouble.
The principle that two fists are no match for four hands is generally true.
But Lu Qingshan was fearless, and his fighting spirit spread in all directions.
He stretched out his hand, grasped the Dragon Bird tightly, and slashed at the void.
"Sword Qi Creature."
In his sea of ​​consciousness, the green snake was immediately attracted.
The next moment.
A green sword energy exploded from the fiery red dragon bird. The red and green colors formed a sharp contrast, which was extremely bright.
The sword energy rolled over and over like bursts of spring thunder, overlapping each other. After an instant, a green gas as thick as a dragon drawing water appeared out of thin air.
It was hard to tell whether it was sword energy or sword force, but the overwhelming green energy had a might that could shake three thousand miles of land. It transformed into a mysterious green snake, which coiled around Lu Qingshan's body, a hundred feet long and lifelike.
Not to mention the destructive power, just the charm that is comparable to that of a living creature is enough to make those underworld cultivators who have reached the realm of transformation be astonished.
They had seen many sword cultivators, but this was the first time in their lives that they had seen a sword cultivator who could display such power with a wisp of sword energy.
They were horrified and could hardly believe it.
This is not just sword energy, it is the evolution of vitality!
Although Lu Qingshan was still a cultivator at the refining stage, his understanding and use of sword energy had already surpassed the proper level, leaving everyone confused and fearful.
Here, Mingshi gritted his teeth, restrained himself from thinking about anything else, and led the Black Sand River to surge out again.
No matter how strong you are, you will die today!
He said viciously in his heart.
The green snake shook ferociously, rolled over and rushed forward, blocking the Black Sand River.
The Black Sand River was surging and powerful, and the green snake was fighting with the huge black river, preventing it from getting close to Lu Qingshan.
Lu Qingshan's body seemed to be in a precarious situation amidst the wind and rain. His black hair was dancing wildly and his robes were fluttering.
On the other side, the attack from the monks in the Southern Underworld was about to come.
Compared to the well-prepared Northern Underworld, the Southern Underworld seemed much more crude, but even so, it was still very powerful.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Peach Blossom and Wangchuan shot out quickly, hovering in front of Lu Qingshan, blocking many attacks.
For a moment, sword energy rushed into the sky and spiritual light shone brightly.
The spiritual energy in Lu Qingshan's body is rapidly dissipating.
Fighting alone against many enemies would consume too much energy.
Although he can still cope with it now, it is obvious that he cannot hold on for too long.
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
At this moment, nearly a hundred figures suddenly appeared in the air, one after another.
At this time, monks from the underworld in the four realms finally arrived.
"This Lu Qingshan is really amazing. Facing such a siege, he was able to hold on until we arrived."
Hei Wu, the leader of the cultivators in the Western Region's Underworld, looked at Lu Qingshan who was controlling the green snake to fight against the "Black Sand River", and said secretly.
Lu Qingshan looked coldly as he took in the situation here.
"Lu Qingshan will die today. As for which family his Taoist weapon will eventually belong to, it depends on their abilities." Hei Wuyao glanced at the East Region Underworld not far away and said coldly.
"Okay, it all depends on your ability!" The cultivators from other regions of the underworld were not willing to be outdone.
"Are they all here?" Faced with such a dilemma, Lu Qingshan chuckled and whispered, "They are all here, that's good."
The next moment.
A powerful pressure suddenly descended.
At the same time, an extremely majestic and solemn female voice sounded.
"You guys really dare."
I saw a flash of water waves in the void, and a figure suddenly appeared in the water waves.
She was wearing a Taoist robe, a jade crown on her head, and had a slim figure and a pretty face.
The visitors were none other than the deputy abbot of Tianji Temple and the abbot of Shuiyue Temple!
"You actually dared to assassinate Qingshan so blatantly, and did it not far from my Tianji Temple. You cultivators from the underworld are really courageous." The master of Shuiyue Temple looked around with cold eyes.
The cultivators from various regions of the underworld, who had been shouting and shouting with evil and murderous intent, suddenly changed their expressions and fell silent.
The whole atmosphere suddenly became dead silent.
How could they not understand what was going on?
But, this is the master of Tianji Temple and Shuiyue Temple!
This is a great monk in the eighth realm!
How could that be?
When did the relationship between Jianzong and Tianjiguan become so close?
A dignified cultivator of the eighth realm of Tianji Temple would actually come out in person to support a cultivator of the refining realm of the Jian Sect?
Even among the spiritual practitioners of Tianji Temple, there are not many who can be personally protected by the master of Shuiyue Temple, right?
He is a cultivator from an alien sect, so why should he do that?
Could it be that he is the illegitimate son of the Shuiyue Temple Master, or...
Hei Wu looked at Lu Qingshan, who was standing next to the master of Shuiyue Temple, with a tall and handsome figure, and even had some obscene thoughts.
But soon, he put away these scattered thoughts and wanted to slap himself twice.
At this time, are you still thinking about these things?
The eyes of the Shuiyue Temple Master were extremely cold. She had no idea what these people were thinking, and she didn't care at all. She just looked around at the underworld monks around her, and finally stretched out her right hand and whispered, "Bind!"
Buzz!
What you say must be followed by what you do.
With her as the center, a layer of green light suddenly lit up within five hundred feet, covering all the cultivators in the underworld.
The green lights turned into vines and instantly entangled all the monks in the underworld.
Legal domain.
This is the Dharma domain of the abbot of Shuiyue Temple.
All the cultivators in the underworld, no matter their level of cultivation, were equal at this time and could not move.
Not only the body, but also the internal energy and the soul are also imprisoned.
More than a hundred Jindan monks were captured without any power to resist.
This is the power of the law domain.
The monks from the underworld present were filled with despair.
Once you are trapped in a legal domain and do not have your own legal domain to counteract it, you will be at the mercy of others.
This is the tyranny of the legal domain.
They are in trouble and even the gods can't save them.
Compared with the despair in the hearts of the cultivators in the underworld, Lu Qingshan's heart was extremely calm.
"You think you are surrounded by enemies from all sides?" He shook his head and said softly, "In fact, you are trapped in a situation where you are surrounded by enemies from all sides."
The master of Shuiyue Temple naturally did not appear by chance, but had been watching secretly for a long time.
This was the plan he and the master of Shuiyue Temple had made.
Everything is designed.
Although the master of Shuiyue Temple cannot take care of him for his entire life, it is not a big problem for him to cooperate with him in a "fishing" trip and help him solve some problems.
According to Lu Qingshan's expectations, the first person to attack him would most likely be a cultivator from the underworld.
Because the cultivators in the underworld have no bottom line and will not have too many concerns - too many lice will not itch. They are already enemies of the human race, so how can they worry about the revenge of the Sword Sect afterwards?
In addition, the monks in the underworld happen to be extremely powerful and well-informed.
From this point of view, the probability that the monks from the underworld will take the first step is very high. After all, they certainly don't want to be one step slower.
There may be “only” one Taoist weapon.
How could Lu Qingshan and the Master of Shuiyue Temple not think of such an obvious truth?
Therefore, Lu Qingshan left Tianji Temple calmly without any disguise, just to see if the cultivators in the underworld could hold back.
Unexpectedly, these monks from the underworld really couldn't control their temper and attacked to kill him shortly after he left Tianji Temple.
He also thought that the cultivators from the underworld would not be able to take action until they were at least far away from the Tianji Temple.
After all, he still had a certain degree of recognition for the insidiousness and caution of the monks in the underworld.
As a result, this time, the monks in the underworld became mentally deranged contrary to their usual practice.
It seems unreasonable, but if you think about it carefully, the reasons are very sufficient.
I was completely forced.
Because all the cultivators in the underworld knew that there were cultivators in the underworld from other realms who were secretly making moves and were eyeing Lu Qingshan covetously.
Every family didn't want to fall behind, and wanted to take action as soon as possible to kill Lu Qingshan first and snatch the Taoist weapon.
With this in mind, the monk from the underworld in the Southern Region was the first one who couldn't help but take action.
Even though the underworld cultivators from other realms knew that now was not the best time to take action, they had no choice but to follow suit in order not to fall behind.
In Lu Qingshan’s previous life, there was a very appropriate word to describe this - "involution".
In the dark.
Marquis Blood Wing had already opened his eyes.
The moment the master of Shuiyue Temple appeared, he withdrew all his methods and dared not look any further.
He knew clearly that those monks in the underworld were beyond salvation.
…
Lotus Peak.
"Thanks to the Master of Shuiyue Temple for taking action personally this time." Lu Qingshan said seriously.
"It's just a piece of cake. Besides, this time we use you as bait, and the harvest will be great." The master of Shuiyue Temple said with a smile.
A cultivator from the underworld at the God Transformation Realm may not be a big deal, but this time, she took down more than a hundred cultivators from the underworld at the God Transformation Realm in one go.
Even if only some subtle information can be detected from each cultivator in the underworld, the amount of information added together from so many people is definitely not small.
"Are you really not going to return to the Sword Sect? Although I have taken down so many underworld cultivators in one fell swoop this time, which has a great deterrent effect, it is absolutely impossible to stop the greed of all cultivators. As long as you don't return to the Sword Sect, you may encounter danger and be attacked at any time."
"Even if you guard against thieves for a thousand days, one of them will eventually make mistakes." The master of Shuiyue Temple said bluntly.
Lu Qingshan shook his head calmly, "Although it is safe to retreat to the Sword Sect, it will also hinder the progress of my cultivation."
“Alas,” the head of Shuiyue Temple looked at Lu Qingshan’s resolute face and sighed, “As long as you don’t die, you will achieve extraordinary success in the future. If it were any other time, I would definitely advise you to slow down your cultivation and ensure your safety, but now…”
"Faced with the threat of 'Huang', the Soldier Demon Clan of the Burning Moon Realm is actively pushing the Demon Clan to launch the final battle against the human race. In this situation, all I can do is seize the time and improve my cultivation as quickly as possible." Lu Qingshan said slowly.
The head of Shuiyue Temple looked at Lu Qingshan solemnly, feeling deeply moved, and made no secret of his optimism and satisfaction with Lu Qingshan. "You have only just reached the stage of refining emptiness, but you have already done so much. You have dived into the abyss and brought back so much important information, and even caused the underworld to lose its mind and gave away a lot of information for nothing. I believe that in the future, when the day of the decisive battle between the two races comes, you will definitely be an indispensable force for the human race."
"Thank you for your compliment, Master." Lu Qingshan was not impetuous.
"Well, I won't stop you." The head of Shuiyue Temple pondered for a moment and said, "Later, I will convey a message to the cultivators of the seven regions of the human race in the name of Tianji Temple, telling them that I, Tianji Temple, swear to protect you, Lu Qingshan. Anyone who tries to assassinate you will be hunted down by me, Tianji Temple."
"In terms of intelligence and investigation, my Tianji Temple is the best in the world. I think the deterrent effect it brings to those villains may be a little greater than that of your Sword Sect."
That's true.
There may be no definite answer as to which is stronger, the Jian Sect or the Tianji Temple.
But when it comes to tracking down, the two Sword Sects cannot catch up with the Tianji Temple.
Although some cultivators were afraid of the Sword Sect, they always had a lucky mentality in their hearts - they could secretly attack and kill Lu Qingshan, take away the Taoist weapon and make a fortune in silence. Would the Sword Sect be able to find out that it was them who did it?
However, if Tianji Temple were to step in, most of the monks who hold this mentality would probably have to give up.
Tianji Temple is investigating the secrets of heaven, and we are not kidding you.
"Is this appropriate?" Lu Qingshan hesitated.
He was a cultivator from an outer sect, and Tianji Temple treated him so well. He was afraid that this would cause dissatisfaction among some cultivators in Tianji Temple towards the master of Shuiyue Temple.
"Don't worry. Since I said so, it is the result of careful consideration." said the master of Shuiyue Temple.
"Thank you very much, Master Shuiyue Temple." Lu Qingshan was no longer polite and saluted with his fists.
The master of Shuiyue Temple has helped him many times, from the secret of Tianxuan to helping him dive into the abyss, and now to taking the initiative to stand up for him. It can be said that he treats him like his own son.
He was very grateful.
"There is one more thing I would like to ask the Master of Shuiyue Temple for a favor." He thought for a moment and then said.
The head of Shuiyue Temple was very gentle and chuckled, "Just tell me what you want to say. You don't need to be too polite to me."
In her heart, already regarded Lu Qingshan as her junior.
"Please ask the master to send someone to send my two disciples back to the Eastern Sword Sect. In my current condition, it is not suitable for me to take them with me when traveling." Lu Qingshan explained.
Lin Chuyi and Lin Shiwu followed him to Tianji Temple, and later the incident with the Taoist weapon happened.
In his current situation where he might be attacked by monks at any time, it was obviously not appropriate to take two girls who had no cultivation skills with him.
"This is a small matter." The head of Shuiyue Temple nodded, "No problem, don't worry, I will definitely send someone to send your two little disciples back to the Sword Sect safely."
…
After talking with the master of Shuiyue Temple, Lu Qingshan went to visit the two famous disciples who were temporarily placed in Tianji Temple by him.
Lu Qingshan pushed the door open and walked into an exquisite courtyard.
"Master, you're back!" When the two sisters saw Lu Qingshan coming in, they quickly stood up and called out obediently.
Lu Qingshan nodded to the two sisters and said, "To make a long story short, I have something to do next, so it's not convenient for me to take you with me, but I will have someone send you back to the Sword Sect."
He thought for a moment, then took out a jade slip from the mustard seed. "When we return to the Sword Sect, you will give this jade slip to Senior Uncle Xi Xiang of the Sword Sect, and explain to him that you are my registered disciples. He will then arrange for you to go to my Qingfeng and give you a practice method. After you get the practice method, you can start practicing."
Lu Qingshan did not have the Qi Refining Technique of the Jie Tian Sword Sutra, and the Long Xiang Xuan Gong was a Taoist scripture of the Long Xiang Temple and was not suitable for passing on to outsiders, so he had never taught Lin Chuyi and Lin Shiwu to practice it.
"We understand, Master!" Lin Chuyi responded coquettishly.
Lu Qingshan nodded slightly.
Although the two disciples were young, they were naturally smart and well-behaved, so he didn't have to worry too much about them.
"Wait," Lu Qingshan remembered something and reminded the two sisters, "There is a little mouse demon on Qingfeng Mountain. If you see it, don't be afraid. It won't hurt you."
"Rat demon?" Sister Lin Shiwu called out subconsciously.
To her, the demon itself is a very scary thing.
"Yes, it's a rat demon. Just like there are good and bad people, demons are the same, and this rat demon..." Lu Qingshan hesitated for a moment, then continued, "It's a good demon, don't worry."
"Okay, we are not afraid." Lin Shiwu nodded his head vigorously and said loudly.
She was actually still a little scared in her heart, but her trust in Lu Qingshan easily overwhelmed this fear.
