Zhu Xian: The way of heaven collapses, and I only have one sword!

Chapter 38 The youngest person in Shangqing realm!

"If you don't let me live, then... I will kill you!"

A look of determination flashed across Chen Qiye's eyes. His spiritual energy raced frantically, his meridians aching under the overload, as if they would snap at any moment. However, he paid no heed to any of this. At this moment, only one thought lingered in his mind: Defeat this tribulation!

The Liuhe Mirror hovered overhead, its light radiating brilliantly as it battled the Super Thunder Dragon. However, the Thunder Dragon was far too powerful, and the Liuhe Mirror's light gradually dimmed.

"Qi Ye! You must hold on!" Lu Xueqi was extremely anxious in the audience, tears welling up in her eyes. She clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging deep into her palms, but she didn't feel any pain at all.

"The spiritual energy drawn here is barely enough to perform this move. The sword's Dharma image, the Dharma image of heaven and earth!"

Chen Qiye let out a low cry, raised his left hand, extended two fingers, and pointed at the small sword between his eyebrows. At the same time, the golden figure in his sea of ​​consciousness suddenly opened his eyes, and an extremely sharp sword intent erupted from his body.

In an instant, the sky and the earth changed color. The sky, which was originally illuminated by the thunder and was a pale white, was now dyed a cold silver-white by the sword intent.

As Chen Qiye's finger landed, a startling golden figure instantly rose from his sea of ​​consciousness. This form stood a hundred feet tall, towering above the heavens, radiating a dazzling golden light. Its features were rigid, its muscles taut, each one of them seemingly imbued with the power to annihilate the heavens and earth.

His face was cold and majestic, his eyes flashed with sharp light like cold stars, his long hair flew wantonly, every strand seemed to contain endless sword intent, making a "buzzing" sound in the wind.

In the Dharmakāya's hand, he held a giant sword that was also condensed from golden light. On the giant sword, the sword intent surged like a surging tide, constantly impacting the surrounding space, causing ripples in the space, as if it would break at any time.

As the Dharmadhatu appeared, the surrounding air seemed to be squeezed by an invisible force, emitting a crackling sound. The wind howled, sand and rocks flew, and the entire world trembled under this powerful aura. The cold, silver-white sword intent spread like a substance, suppressing the light of the tribulation thunder wherever it passed.

Witnessing the hundred-foot-tall golden image, carrying boundless sword intent and proudly appearing, the entire Qingyun Mountain instantly fell into a deathly silence. Everyone was stunned by this shocking scene, as if time had frozen in that moment. At this moment, Chen Qiye's figure slowly flew into the air, his gaze fixed on the Super Thunder Dragon.

"Neither copper, nor iron, nor steel, it was once hidden beneath Mount Xumi. Without the reversal of yin and yang to refine it, how could it not be tempered by water and fire? Immortal Slayer's power is devastating, immortals are slain, and immortal traps emit red light everywhere. The transformations of the Exterminator are infinite and wondrous. The blood of the Great Luo Immortal stains his clothes. The Immortal Slayer Sword Formation... rises!"

Following Chen Qiye's roar, four rays of light from the Zhuxian Sword Formation shot up into the sky, shooting towards the east, south, west, and north. In an instant, the sky between heaven and earth changed color. The sky, originally shone palely by the thunder, was now filled with four completely different yet equally fierce sword energies.

"The Immortal Zhu Sword Formation! No, this is not the Immortal Zhu Sword Formation of Qingyun Sect, this is..." The head of the Six Clans looked at Daoxuan, his eyes full of complexity.

"This is the sword intent of the ancient Zhuxian Sword that I intercepted and taught to Chen Qiye. This Zhuxian Sword Formation was created by him based on that sword intent and integrated with his own understanding." Taoist Master Daoxuan looked at the already formed Zhuxian Sword Formation with a serious look, his expression was both relieved and a little worried.

"Chen Qiye possesses exceptional talent. Ever since he joined my Qingyun Sect, I've noticed his unique understanding of the Way of the Sword. That day in the Huanyue Cave, I stumbled upon the inexplicable resonance between the Zhuxian Ancient Sword and his. That's when I decided to pass on that ray of swordsmanship to him, hoping he could achieve a breakthrough in the Way of the Sword.

Who could have imagined that he could use this glimmer of sword intent, combined with his own cultivation techniques and insights, to create such a unique Zhu Xian Sword Formation? Each sword energy within the formation, though derived from the ancient Zhu Xian sword, was infused with his own style and will. Its power was in no way inferior to that of our Qingyun Sect's orthodox Zhu Xian Sword Formation, and in some respects, even surpassed it.

However, this sword formation is too powerful. Once deployed, any mistake will backfire. "Chen Qiye, this kid, is willing to take a risk to defeat this tribulation thunder. I hope he can survive it safely." Taoist Master Daoxuan sighed slightly, his eyes filled with concern and expectation.

"He created his own Taoist sword moves, and now he created his own sword formation. How many more surprises does Chen Qiye have for us?" After the six leaders looked at each other, without exception, they were all surprised at Chen Qiye's talent.

Within the arena, the Zhu Xian Sword Formation had already taken shape. Four sword energies crisscrossed, dividing the entire sky into four distinct regions. Each sword energy contained boundless destructive power, as if to reduce all things in the world to dust.

"Kill, slay, trap, and destroy. The four swords come out at the same time, and all the methods are destroyed! Kill!" Chen Qiye roared to the sky, his voice full of determination, and the magic formulas in his hands changed rapidly.

Under Chen Qiye's full force, the Immortal Execution Sword Formation erupted with unprecedented might. The four sword energies, like four enraged dragons, lunged at the calamity cloud with bared fangs and claws. The golden Dharmakāya swung the greatsword in its hand, each swing causing the surrounding space to distort and warp, emitting bursts of dull roars.

The Super Thunder Dragon felt an unprecedented threat. It twisted its body frantically and spewed out even more violent lightning. For a moment, lightning flashed between heaven and earth, and sword energy was everywhere. The two powerful forces collided violently, erupting with countless dazzling lights and deafening noises.

"I want you dead!" "When the heavens collapse, I, Chen Qiye, possess only one sword that can move mountains, sever rivers, overturn seas, subdue demons, subdue monsters, command gods, pluck stars, destroy cities, and split the sky..."

"Here comes the sword!"

As Chen Qiye finished speaking, the Qiu Shui Wuhen sword in his hand disappeared, and was replaced by an iron sword about three feet long, made of ordinary steel, and even had some rust on it.

At the same time, in his sea of ​​consciousness, a tall figure was hovering in mid-air, with snow-white sleeves fluttering in the wind. She was a graceful and elegant woman, and her every move showed elegance and nobility. The sword energy lingering around her was intimidating.

"Xiao Qiye is in trouble and needs my help. I will lend you my sword."

At the moment when Sword Mother's voice fell, the rusty iron sword suddenly burst into a dazzling light. This light was brighter than the scorching sun, and it even forced back the raging thunder.

Ancient runes flickered on the iron sword, each one seeming to speak of the vicissitudes of time. As the runes flickered, a powerful aura emanated from the sword, sending a tremor deep within the soul to everyone present.

As Chen Qiye held the old sword, his entire temperament changed dramatically. His eyes were no longer just determined, but more confident and calm.

"Today, I will use this sword to break this heavenly calamity!" Chen Qiye's voice was like a huge bell, resounding throughout Qingyun Mountain.

The golden Dharma image wielded its giant sword, echoing the four sword energies of the Zhuxian Sword Formation as they attacked the Super Thunder Dragon together. With the old sword in hand, Chen Qiye moved like lightning, weaving between the sword energy and the lightning.

"Break it... for me!" Chen Qiye shouted, concentrating all his strength on the old sword, and then slashed fiercely at the head of the thunder dragon.

A dazzling sword light flashed, and the head of the super thunder dragon was cut off by Chen Qiye's sword. The thunder dragon, which lost its head, struggled in the air for a few times before it dissipated with a bang.

As the thunder dragon dissipated, the calamity clouds in the sky also began to dissipate gradually, and the sun shone on Qingyun Mountain again. Chen Qiye, holding the old sword, was suspended in the air.

Just when everyone thought that all this was over, the Dharma image behind Chen Qiye, the Zhuxian Sword Formation, and the rusty sword in his hand disappeared. He then sat cross-legged in mid-air and circulated the Tai Chi true energy in his body.

"Qi Ye is breaking through? This is incredible! He's already in the Shangqing realm at the age of eighteen!"

As Chen Qiye entered the Upper Purity Realm, the entire Qingyun Mountain erupted in excitement. The disciples all looked up at the figure suspended in mid-air, their eyes filled with awe. A new aura slowly spread around Chen Qiye like ripples.

"All Qingyun disciples, sit cross-legged on the spot and gain insights!" Taoist Master Daoxuan immediately ordered.

Upon hearing Daoxuan Zhenren's instructions, everyone sat cross-legged on the ground, closed their eyes, and immersed themselves in the mysterious aura brought by Chen Qiye's breakthrough. For a moment, Qingyun Mountain was completely silent, with only a gentle breeze blowing, ruffling everyone's clothes.

The first level of the Upper Purity Realm is called the Purple Palace. By circulating one's true essence and using the three flowers of essence, energy, and spirit to forge the upper dantian, one can create the Purple Palace. The power of the three flowers can be continuously generated. But Chen Qiye was different. His three flowers were all at the peak of their thirty-sixth level, and they merged into one, forming an unprecedented supreme flower of the Dao.

The radiance of Chen Qiye's Supreme Dao Flower enveloped him completely. The light was pure and dazzling, imbued with endless Dao essence. Under the illumination of this flower, strange changes began to occur in his upper Dantian.

The previously empty upper dantian gradually solidified under the influx of the power of the Supreme Dao Flower. The outline of the Purple Palace slowly emerged, emitting a mysterious aura. Within the Purple Palace, each movement of the Supreme Dao Flower drove the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth to surge wildly.

The people on Qingyun Mountain were immersed in this mysterious aura, sensing the opportunity presented by Chen Qiye's breakthrough. Some disciples with advanced comprehension skills, such as Lu Xueqi, Qi Hao, Lin Jingyu, Zeng Shushu, and Zhang Xiaofan, had already begun to sense traces of the Dao. Their spiritual energy, like that of Lu Xueqi, Qi Hao, Lin Jingyu, Zeng Shushu, and Zhang Xiaofan, began to fluctuate slightly, as if responding to Chen Qiye's supreme Dao flower.

After the Purple Palace in his upper Dantian was forged, as the power of the Supreme Dao Flower continued to flow, Chen Qiye's aura grew increasingly majestic. His consciousness immersed itself in the depths of the Purple Palace, comprehending the wondrous changes brought about by this new realm. Within the Purple Palace, every movement of the Dao Flower seemed to draw upon the purest power between heaven and earth.
