From a martial arts disciple to a god through countless trials and tribulations

Chapter 163: Zhenwu Sword Yan Emperor Daozang
The powerful Taoist Liu flew across the sky, ignoring the Chu State Demon Suppression Bureau as nothing, and passed over their heads at will.

In an instant, a black dragon that was a thousand meters long and wearing a set of peerless armor crashed down from the sky.

"rumble……"

The black dragon Chen Xuan pulled his head out of the ground, shook his prominent dragon head, and countless mud and dust slid down like a waterfall.

"cough."

In the pit, Taoist Liu's hair was disheveled, a trace of blood was dripping from the corner of his mouth, and he was lying in the boiling lava, looking up at the huge dragon-shaped figure above his head.

"This old man has been a little careless..."

Taoist Liu sighed with emotion. The previous moment, he was about to fly over the heads of this group of Chu monks, but the next moment, he was knocked down from the sky by the legendary Holy Son of the Southern Wilderness in the most direct and brutal way.

"The black dragon body, combined with a peerless treasured armor, is not inferior to the real cauldron divine body."

A black dragon loomed before him like a mountain range. Its torso, claws, tail, and other parts were covered in crimson armor, resembling congealed blood, a dazzling sight that contrasted sharply with the black dragon scales. Mysterious and complex runes were engraved on each tightly stitched piece of armor, emitting a crimson glow that seemed to contain the power to incinerate the heavens and melt the earth.

"The Holy Son of the Southern Wilderness who killed Taoist Zizhu has taken action!" In the distance, a group of monsters from the Zhi Kingdom stopped and stared blankly at the scene that suddenly happened in front of them.

Among them were many monsters, who had witnessed the death of Taoist Zizhu in Luoyue City some time ago.

"He has the Emperor's Banner..."

"Master Liu and the other three great men have been making special preparations these days. He has no chance to use the Human Emperor Banner. He will die at the hands of Master Liu!" A Zhiguo monster at the Daozang level sneered.

There are no fools in the world. Since Taoist Liu and other powerful people from the Zhi State dared to go to war with the Chu State, they naturally took Chen Xuan, who appeared when Taoist Zizhu died, into consideration and were confident of victory.

"hold head high!"

The black dragon Chen Xuan roared, hot mist rolled out of his mouth, his head was like a hill, his dragon whiskers flowed, and his vertical pupils were large and round, like two golden-red lanterns.

"boom!"

He opened his bloody mouth, which was full of sharp fangs, each of which was as tall as a person. They flashed with cold light like a sharp blade and bit towards Taoist Liu fiercely, as if they could bite everything in the world to pieces.

"Buzz!"

Taoist Liu launched a counterattack instantly. A willow tree with rippling green light emerged from the big pit, swaying with fairy light and rising rapidly. Every willow branch was surrounded by green lightning runes, and it rose to a height of thousands of meters in an instant.

Taoist Liu's precious green willow body was instantly revealed!
"How can the borrowed power of a fake cauldron compare to the real body of a cauldron!" Taoist Liu's huge trunk was shaped like a human. The eyes on the trunk were full of contempt, and a disdainful sound came out of the torn black hole mouth.

He knew that Chen Xuan's black dragon body was slightly inferior to that of Taoist Zizhu.

And his Green Willow Body is three times stronger than Taoist Zizhu's. Chen Xuan can never be his opponent!

"Crack!"

The black dragon Chen Xuan spat out a mouthful of bloody willow sawdust, his dragon fangs were almost broken, and his eyes were gloomy.

Immediately, a vast amount of immortal energy surged into the Morning Dew Armor. Countless feathers and armor plates stood up high, flowing with pure fire power. The body seemed to evolve into the phantom of a unicorn with eyes wide open, emitting brilliant fire patterns.

"Crack!"

Chen Xuan's body was like a black and red mountain range, winding around the green willow trees. The sharp black dragon scales and the armor plates like flaming swords plowed deep scars like gullies on the green willow trees.

"what!"

Taoist Liu suddenly screamed in pain, countless wood chips flew all over his body, and a large amount of blood oozed out. He was seriously injured.

"Relying on the armor is all external!" Taoist Liu roared, and thousands of willow branches chopped down the armor of morning dew on Chen Xuan's body like a magic sword that could cut through anything, sparks flying everywhere.

But this black dragon got a matching set of peerless armor from somewhere, and now it is no worse than the Qingliu treasure body that he has activated with all his strength, and it is even much stronger!
"Ang!" The black dragon Chen Xuan roared towards the sky, and his huge dragon body wrapped around the thick willow tree. His dragon bones contracted and burst out with tremendous force, trying to break the entire willow tree, which was like a pillar of the sky, in half.

"Stop!" Taoist Liu's face was twisted with pain and he wailed in agony. The tree trunk that was entangled by the dragon's body kept making cracking sounds. In the blink of an eye, it shrank a circle and was about to break.

"Ang!" At the same time, the black dragon Chen Xuan suddenly lowered his dragon head, and his razor-like fangs tore off the willow branches one after another, and blood splattered along with wood chips and willow leaves.

"I have specially selected this fighting armor for him!" In the distance, Jiang Qinghuang's beautiful eyes sparkled and she clenched her fists happily.

Half a month ago, she saw that Chen Xuan was slightly inferior to the real Dinglu treasure body, and immediately thought of the close combat armor in the Jiang family treasure house, which was just suitable for Chen Xuan.

"Master Liu was suppressed head-on." Farther away, the monsters from Zhi Country widened their eyes in disbelief. The powerful Dinglu was actually defeated by a Taoist monk in a head-on battle!
They were in a panic, not knowing whether to continue moving forward and attack the monks from the Demon Suppression Division, or to help the frustrated Taoist Liu.

"It's a pity that Liu Qi is not here. He has the strength to fight against the powerful Dinglu." Someone from the Liu clan sighed. Liu Qi was the most outstanding top-level Taoist monk in their clan. He was capable of fighting against the powerful Dinglu, but his whereabouts have been unknown recently. No one knows what happened to him.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, Taoist Liu, whose body was almost broken, suddenly retracted his precious body, quickly shrank his body, turned into a bloody green light ball, escaped from the dragon body, and fled into the distance at a high speed.

"If something bad were to happen, Chen Xuan would be able to hold me here!"

Taoist Liu felt something was wrong and had no intention of fighting any longer, so he decided to leave the battlefield immediately.

His body was not at an advantage and he was at a disadvantage. He realized that Chen Xuan was very difficult to deal with.

"Get out of his way!" Taoist Liu believed that even if he used other means to kill Chen Xuan, he would have to go through a big battle, which would take too long and consume too much energy. By then, the other cauldron battlefields would have decided the outcome, and it would be too late to regret!

"go back!"

Suddenly, a voice was heard while Taoist Liu was fleeing.

"rumble!"

A thousand-meter-tall fiery red figure rose from the ground, with eyes of red gold, a face of danyuan pupils and fire, and black birds flowing in his waterfall-like red hair. The Yan Emperor's robe was embroidered with flame cloud patterns, and he was as majestic as a celestial monarch.

Yan Emperor Taoist Canon!

Sixth Heaven.

Xiao Hu's expression was solemn. At this moment, he did not hide anything. He stood on the shoulder of Yan Emperor Daozang, who was in control of the world. With Qinglian Earth Fire in his left hand and Bone Spirit Cold Fire in his right hand, he instantly attacked Taoist Liu!
At the same time, two divine fires of different colors appeared on the hands of Yan Emperor Daozang, like two suns rising into the sky, crashing towards Taoist Liu, and the sea of fire was surging and endless.

"call!"

Taoist Liu's expression changed drastically, and his figure suddenly became like a flash of lightning, turning in mid-air and breaking out in another direction.

"boom!"

Suddenly, on the air road ahead, a white finger hundreds of feet long pierced the sky and crushed towards him.

"This road is blocked, go back!"

Jiang Qinghuang had already locked onto him from afar, once again blocking Taoist Liu's escape route. With Chen Xuan, even more powerful than before, directly suppressing Taoist Liu, they had ample time and a safe environment to concentrate on practicing their ancient secret techniques!

Farther away, several monks from the Demon Suppression Division turned their giant dragon-slaying crossbows towards Taoist Liu, drawing their arrows but not firing, creating a very oppressive feeling.

"Boom!"

Taoist Liu was struck by Jiang Qinghuang's ancient secret technique and somersaulted over a dozen times in the air. He hovered in the air, wiped the blood from his shoulder, and suddenly laughed loudly towards the sky:
"Alright, alright! I won't go to support you. I'll stay and kill you little guys, then return directly to Zhiguo!"

Taoist Zizhu was defeated and died accidentally by the Human Emperor Banner.

But he was even more powerful, and had special defenses against the Human Emperor Banner. With several methods at his disposal, why should he fear these little guys? The worst that could happen was just the destruction of the other two battlefields! "You are courting death!" Taoist Liu's long hair danced wildly, and an immense green light erupted from his body, like a bright lantern in the night, illuminating the world.

"Buzz!" He mobilized the power of heaven and earth and began to activate an ancient secret technique.

The sky cracked, and a green willow branch over ten thousand feet long fell from the crack, accompanied by one hundred and eight green-gold divine rings, like a green city wall, spanning the sky and the earth.

"Zheng!"

On the other side, suddenly, the clear sound of swords gradually rang out.

Taoist Liu was stunned when he heard the voice, and subconsciously turned his head to look. A sharp edge was locked on him. It was Chen Xuan, who was earlier than him in practicing the ancient secret technique!

"Jingzhe!"

The upper body of the black dragon Chen Xuan stood between heaven and earth, with one black dragon claw holding a giant sword with a purple sheath, slowly moving sideways. With every inch of movement, the Jingzhe Immortal Sword would break away from the sheath a little, and a touch of snow-white sword light, like a bright moon, floated into the sky.

The terrifying sword energy in Chen Xuan's body, as well as the five kinds of Taoist scriptures of destiny, totaling a huge amount of immortal energy after thirteen breakthroughs, have now all been transformed into golden white energy, gathering in the Jingzhe Sword like a tidal wave.

Zhenwu Seven-Section Sword.

The second form.

"hold head high!"

The Jingzhe sword was drawn, and the scabbard fell. The white dragon quickly reached out and wrapped around it, holding it tightly with its claws. A bright sword light like a snow-white crescent moon flashed from above her head, making her look terrified, and the white dragon scales all over her body couldn't help but tremble.

Chen Xuan used the body of the Black Dragon Cauldron to activate the peerless immortal sword, and with the golden virtue and white qi, he cut out the ancient sword secrets of the Shangyang Immortal.

Under one sword.

The sky was divided into two parts, upper and lower.

"Zheng!"

On the surface of a thousand-foot-long green willow branch, one hundred and eight green-gold divine rings silently cracked. Then, half of the willow branch fell from the sky, and the cut was as smooth as a mirror.

A line of blood appeared on Taoist Liu's neck.

Behind him, more than ten miles away, a towering mountain was cut in half, slowly moving away and collapsing, with smoke and dust billowing.

"This……"

Deep doubts appeared in Taoist Liu's eyes. He subconsciously raised his hand and touched his neck. Blood gushed out, and with a puff, a head slid down from the sky.

Twelve Qi of Mountains and Seas.

Since ancient times, the sword officer with the golden virtue and white qi has the greatest killing power!
"thump!"

Immediately afterwards, Taoist Liu's headless body fell powerlessly from the sky, landing on the ground, splashing a handful of dust.

In all directions of heaven and earth, the monks of Chu State and the monsters of Zhi State stared at this scene in stunned silence.

Taoist Liu, has fallen?
To have a Taoist monk chop the sky down with a single sword strike? Absurd emotions and uneasiness spread throughout everyone's hearts.

"The secret techniques performed with a sword are called sword moves."

Inside the Xuan Ring, the old man sighed and uttered a sigh of emotion: "Purple Sky Dragon Transformation Technique, peerless immortal sword, an ancient sword style of extremely high status, when used together, Xiao Hou, the power of Chen Xuan's move is even greater than your ultimate move of melting divine fire..."

Moreover, the fusion of the two divine fires unleashes a powerful explosion, creating an overwhelming and large-scale attack.

But all the divine power of Chen Xuan's sword was contained in a line of sword light, which could cut through anything and was so sharp that it could not be broken.

"The difficulty of stacking secret techniques is no less than that of fusing secret techniques. His talent is no less than mine, even though I have the blessing of Emperor Yan Ming."

Xiao Huo looked melancholy. His talent could only be used in the field of fire magic, but Chen Xuan had forced the ancient secret techniques of two different paths to be superimposed and integrated together.

"This..." Jiang Qinghuang opened her red lips in surprise. After a long pause, she sighed and commented, "Master Liu shouldn't have escaped, let alone wasted time using his secret technique. He should have continued to fight Chen Xuan in order to survive."

Her heart was in turmoil. The original intention of this mission was just to intercept Taoist Liu, but after Chen Xuan obtained two matching peerless treasures, his combat power increased several times. With a shocking move, he killed Taoist Liu on the spot!
Taoist Liu tried to escape, but was stopped several times. Then he used the secret technique, and Chen Xuan had the time and opportunity to use the secret technique.

At the beginning, Chen Xuan, who had no sword, could forcibly resist the ancient secret sword energy released by Taoist Zizhu with his magic sword by relying solely on the sword techniques performed by his fingers, and caused serious damage to Taoist Zizhu.

At this moment, Chen Xuan, who had the sword, successfully practiced the ancient sword technique, and his power increased several times, and his killing power was sky-high!
"Master Liu seems to be dead, let's... run away!" In the distance, a group of monsters from Zhi Country who were halfway along the way felt a suffocating chill in their hearts, and immediately became confused and turned around to flee frantically.

How long had it been? In just a few dozen breaths, a great cauldron master fell, and they didn't even have time to fight the monks of the Demon Suppression Division!
"Kill!" Upon seeing this, several young demon-suppressing generals from the Demon Suppression Division immediately led their men to chase after them.

"call!"

Chen Xuan exhaled and slowly landed on the ground. The immortal energy in his body was almost exhausted, and he was unable to continue to maintain the Zixiao Dragon Transformation Technique.

Immediately, he took out a Qi-gathering pill produced by Taoist Zizhu, swallowed it into his stomach, and restored his immortal Qi.

What is the purpose of Taoist Liu guarding against the Human Emperor Banner and the soul body?
Chen Xuan has the peerless immortal sword in his hand. As long as he has people like Xiao Huo, Jiang Qinghuang and others to support him and buy time to practice the ancient secret technique, he can kill the low-level cauldron without using the Human Emperor Banner.

He had come this far, overcoming numerous hardships and difficulties, and had cultivated many kinds of immortal energy, many kinds of true scriptures, and many kinds of secret techniques... If he had used all this time and resources on one true scripture, he would have become a true Dinglu master by now!
"Wow!"

Chen Xuan walked to the front of the torn body of Taoist Liu, staring at the cyan-gold eyes and the rapidly rotating head of Taoist Liu.
"You, you..." Taoist Liu made unclear sounds, and the remaining Zhenwu sword intent between his neck was rapidly strangling his remaining life force.

Chen Xuan stared for a long while.

"Zheng!"

The Jingzhe Sword trembled, like a white rainbow piercing the ground, piercing through Taoist Liu's forehead, nailing Taoist Liu's head firmly to the ground, and there was no movement anymore.

Subsequently.

Chen Xuan raised his head and looked at Xiao Hu who was not far away. He opened his mouth and asked with a smile:
"General Xiao, it's been half a month. Can we talk?"

Xiao Huo's face was solemn and he said nothing.

"..."

Chen Xuan laughed.

Immediately.

The Human Emperor, Huangliang, Changsheng, Liuyu, and Tianyan, a total of five Tianming Daozang of different sizes, emerged.

Five figures shrouded in divine light, like gods on earth, stood in a row behind Chen Xuan. Five pairs of eyes, shone with golden light, were cold and malicious, staring intently at the thousand-foot-tall Yan Emperor Daozang in the distance.

The Human Emperor Banner in the hands of Human Emperor Daozang fluttered like black fire.

"..."

The Yan Emperor Daozang was completely locked in the deep gazes of the five Tianming Daozangs. Its eyes were dim and unclear, and it slowly lowered its head.

After the big win, the atmosphere was heated.

Suddenly, it dropped to freezing point.
