Invincible from the martial arts

Chapter 169 The Demon Gate
The capital of the Shang Dynasty.

Li Chunjun prepared for Nirvana as soon as possible.

Jiang Yuqiu, the Yuanying Zhenren, and Jiang Yuxue and others were personally guarding outside.

At the control center of the city defense formation, Huan Ming quickly gave orders, asking Youlong to summon monks who were proficient in the art of curses to search for relevant clues.

At the same time, let Lei Yuan follow the people from Wuji Sect and Chiyang Sword Sect to ensure that they would not destroy any traces left behind when they left the country.

In addition, the true disciples of the other eight states received the order almost at the same time, and were ready for battle at any time, making preparations for a full-scale conflict with the Wuji Sect, Chiyang Sword Sect, Xiantian Sect and other six sects.

As for Huan Ming himself...

He contacted the people of the Taixu Sword Sect and reported directly to them, requesting a comprehensive combat order against the Chiyang Sword Sect.

The entire Taixu Sword Sect was in an unprecedentedly severe atmosphere.

Time flies.

It’s been almost half a month.

……

The training room used by Zhou Wujiu, a true disciple of King Du of the Great Shang Dynasty.

Li Chunjun finished his practice.

After taking a look at the cold light flowing on the Chixiao Sword, and feeling his own deeper understanding of the "Sword Intent of Destruction", he slowly exhaled.

The process of rebirth from the ashes...

It wasn't pretty for him.

No matter how quickly you recover from the ashes, you will still be in a weak state for several days.

If a crisis occurs during this period, you will be powerless to fight back.

He is essentially putting his life and death entirely in the hands of others.

Therefore, compared to rebirth from the ashes, he still prefers the complete recovery brought about by the increase in life level.

but……

His exploration of the power of the Flame Phoenix was only at the second level. After being reborn from the ashes twice, the power of the Flame Phoenix in his bloodline was almost exhausted. He would not be able to be reborn from the ashes again.

For a moment, Li Chunjun couldn't help but turn his gaze to the "Human Emperor Flag" in the spiritual world.

……

"Kill a level 23 creature, experience +1748!"

……

[Life Level: 27 (12446/70000)]

……

生命等级提升至27级，炼杀寻常真丹修士所得经验数值不过400到500区间，纵然23级的金丹修士也仅1500上下。

That is, if you want to raise your life level again, you have to kill about 150 Zhendan or 50 Jindan.

Even though he now has tens of thousands of progress points, the number of True Pills and Golden Pills he needs to kill still needs to be calculated in three digits.

"Nascent Soul..."

Li Chunjun thought of the advantages he had in the duel against Yuanying.

The natal flying sword of top-level magical weapon level!

Great success level sword intent!
These two are not just one level stronger than ordinary Nascent Souls, but two levels stronger.

However, his spells and secret techniques were still two levels lower than that of Nascent Soul.

In addition, although his spiritual awareness barely reached the Nascent Soul standard, it was not outstanding.

As well as his own experience, accumulated magic power, and diversity of means, they are still not as good as those of Nascent Soul.

The final comprehensive judgment...

His combat power should be that of an ordinary Nascent Soul level.

It is stronger than the so-called Nascent Soul, and can even defeat those new Nascent Souls with insufficient foundation, but it is obviously beyond its ability to kill a Nascent Soul.

After all, there is still a level of difference.

As the realm continues to rise, the gap between the two sides is getting bigger and bigger.

This is true for the Nascent Soul and the Nascent Soul as well.

To that level, practitioners must go through nine levels of spiritual tribulation, which can be described as a world of its own.

The strongest soul can often defeat a hundred of the weakest souls.

You know, this is within the same realm.

The gap between the two sides is like that between Li Chunjun and ordinary Yuandan.

"I am only at the True Dan stage now. If I take one more step and enter the Golden Dan stage, my combat power will be further enhanced. By then, let alone defeating those newly promoted Yuanyings who lack sufficient foundation, even killing them will not be a luxury."

Li Chunjun pondered.

"In addition, as my life level continues to rise, my foundation will become more solid. By then, no matter whether I practice forbidden techniques, secret techniques, or magical powers, my speed will be faster than that of a Nascent Soul at the same level. In the future, I may also be able to master magical powers."

Even if he cannot master supernatural powers between levels 27 and 30, the state of enlightenment when he reaches level 30 will definitely make his strength skyrocket.

By then, let alone supernatural powers, high-level supernatural powers, and top supernatural powers, even the great supernatural powers required by Yuanshen Zhenjun can be comprehended in one step.

The next key lies in whether Taixu Sword Sect is willing to cooperate with him and help him quickly upgrade his life level.

At that moment, he cleaned himself up and walked out of the training room.

Outside the training room, Jiang Yuqiu had not left yet.

Using his Nascent Soul body to protect him, it can be seen that the head of Yanhuang Peak values ​​him. Seeing him walk out of the training room, the Nascent Soul True Person stood up immediately and asked, "How is it?"

"Everything has been restored."

After Li Chunjun finished speaking, he didn't exchange pleasantries and went straight to the point: "Half a month has passed. Has the sect made any progress in its investigation into the curse?"

Jiang Yuqiu's expression darkened when he heard this.

After a while, she said, "We found a blood sacrifice formation not far from the capital, and found some residual traces. Based on these residual traces, we infer that the one who used the blood curse to kill you was a member of the Sun Worship Cult."

After she finished speaking, she snorted, "But this matter must have been pushed by the Chiyang Sword Sect and the Wuji Sect, otherwise it would not have happened by such a coincidence."

These words don't make a lot of sense.

"The results of it."

Li Chunjun asked: "What does the Taixu Sword Sect say?"

"The sect master asked the upper sect for permission to use this incident as an excuse to retaliate against the Chiyang Sword Sect, but..."

Jiang Yuqiu paused and said, "The Supreme Sect refused on the grounds that there was no evidence."

"evidence?"

Li Chunjun looked at Jiang Yuqiu: "Everyone knows that it is the Chiyang Sword Sect and the Wuji Sect who want to kill me, the Flame Phoenix Sword Master. This is already a fact on the surface. Just because they can't find any evidence, the Taixu Sword Sect is going to do nothing?"

"The upper sect...does not agree to go to war with the Red Sun Sword Sect at this time."

Jiang Yuqiu smiled bitterly and said, "The followers of the Sun Worship Cult have not yet given up the Blue Star World. Most likely, it's because they have been wandering outside, and the star gate built by the nine major immortal sects will be completed soon. At that time, the Sun Worship Cult will definitely launch a large-scale offensive against the upcoming star gate. If the Taixu Sword Sect and the Chiyang Sword Sect go to war at this time... wouldn't that make the relatives sad and the enemies happy..."

She glanced at Li Chunjun and sighed, "I know this is a little unfair to you, but the higher-ups are more concerned about the stability of Blue Star and don't want to see chaos when the Star Gate is about to be opened. So... if we really want to take full revenge on the Red Sun Sword Sect, we have to wait until the Star Gate is completed and the situation stabilizes."

"Stablize……"

Li Chunjun asked calmly: "When?"

"The Stargate should be completed soon, and the situation is stable..."

Jiang Yuqiu weighed it up briefly and said, "Looking at the intensity of the Sun Worship movement, if it's fast, it will take about ten years, and if it's slow, it won't take more than sixty years."

After she finished speaking, she forced a laugh and said, "That's perfect. By that time, you will have already cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage, and you may even be the best among the Nascent Souls. Then you can directly participate in the battle with the Red Sun Sword Sect and make them pay for what they did this time."

After hearing this, Li Chunjun did not say anything.

After hearing this, Jiang Yuqiu understood that Li Chunjun must have been wronged by this way of handling the matter.

At that moment, she said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, although the upper sect has not allowed our Taixu Sword Sect and Chiyang Sword Sect to go to war, but you are Yanhuang Sword Son. From now on, if the Yuandan of Chiyang Sword Sect dares to leave the mountain gate, you can kill them as much as you want. Kill one if there are two, kill a pair! Kill them until the Chiyang Sword Sect's status on Blue Star is in name only!"

"What if the Red Sun Sword Sect stays indoors?"

Li Chunjun said.

Jiang Yuqiu paused and said, "The Yuandan of Taixu Sword Sect will also cooperate with you, but... the mountain gate of Chiyang Sword Sect and the numerous formations on the other two plots of land, even if you want to attack, you can only use the Yuandan to break through."

Yuanying, cannot take action.

And Yuanying didn't make a move, and attacked the fourth-level or even fifth-level formation...

It is also difficult for Li Chunjun to do so.

The formation of the Great Shang capital was broken because Zhou Wujiu deliberately released the formation to lure Li Chunjun in, who then released a Heavenly Sword Slashing Sky Talisman from the inside to influence the operation of the formation.

Under normal circumstances, even if Li Chunjun brought hundreds of Yuandan cultivators, he would not be able to forcibly break the chain formation that was composed of several fourth-order formations inlaid together and could exert the power of a fifth-order formation.

"Master Jiang Feng, if I were not the Flame Phoenix Sword Master and did not possess the power to be reborn from the ashes, even if I did not die on the spot under that curse, my foundation would be completely destroyed, wouldn't it?"

Li Chunjun said.

There was guilt in Jiang Yuqiu's eyes.

After a while, she sighed and said, "The Taixu Sword Sect...is not the same as the Chiyang Sword Sect, Wuji Sect, Piaomiao Sect, etc."

After a pause, she continued, "The Taixu Sword Sect has not been a member of the Immortal Alliance for a long time. To the Wuji Sect, Chiyang Sword Sect and other forces, we are newcomers."

Li Chunjun didn't say anything.

Jiang Yuqiu organized his words a little: "Before joining the Immortal Alliance, the real name of the Taixu Sword Sect was... the Taixu Demon Sect."

"Demon Sect?"

Li Chunjun was a little surprised.

"It's not a real demon sect."

Jiang Yuqiu explained, "It's just that our Taixu Sword Sect likes to act directly, and...some of the things we do are a bit blatant, which has offended many forces. That's why we were labeled as a demon sect. If we were really a demon sect that practices magic, the Immortal Alliance would not allow us to join."

"Oh."

Li Chunjun responded without comment.

"The previous Taixu Sword Sect... didn't have a good reputation, so after joining the Immortal Alliance, in order to better integrate into this big family, the leaders implemented a strategy of recuperation and benevolence..."

Jiang Yuqiu said, somewhat helplessly: "Our Taixu Sword Sect is strong enough and willing to show goodwill, so the other sects of the Immortal Alliance will naturally give us enough respect... But the people below... are not used to it."

After hearing this, Li Chunjun understood.

The style of doing things has changed.

I didn’t have a choice before, but now I want to be a good person.

But the people below have not yet completely corrected themselves.

The current situation is that the overbearing style of behavior at the lower levels has created many enemies, but the higher-ups are unwilling to help and support them, and repeatedly ask the lower levels to act according to the rules.

Who wouldn't feel uncomfortable in this situation?

At this time, Li Chunjun also understood something: "So, the previous Yanhuang Sword Master didn't have to leave because he cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage, but was transferred away by the higher-ups?"
