From martial arts sects to immortality sects

Chapter 258 Li Qingqiu Battles the Great Demon Luo

Poof——

The Rainbow Sword pierced the throat of the Ghost Wolf, and dark black ghost blood splattered between Li Qingqiu and the Ghost Wolf.

The ghostly creature transformed into streaks of blood, shooting in different directions and moving away from Li Qingqiu.

These blood arrows expanded rapidly after landing, eventually coalescing into the body of a ghostly creature. It instantly split into thirty-six clones, all of which stared menacingly at Li Qingqiu.

"Such a fast sword! You must be Li Qingqiu, the sect leader of Qingxiao Sect, right?"

One of the ghostly creatures spoke up, his tone filled with apprehension.

He couldn't dodge that sword strike just now; no wonder the Great Demon Lord had such a high opinion of Li Qingqiu.

Li Qingqiu glanced around but did not answer Gui Bei's question.

The sixteen evil spirits attempted to establish a ghost dynasty, putting them at odds with the Qingxiao Sect. There was no room for reconciliation. Rather than engaging in dialogue, Li Qingqiu wanted to end the life of these evil spirits as soon as possible.

Seeing that Li Qingqiu did not answer, Guibei was very angry. His other clone roared and all thirty-six clones rushed towards Li Qingqiu.

"That's it!"

Unable to determine the true identity with the naked eye, Li Qingqiu decided to end his life in a brutal manner.

The thought flashed through Li Qingqiu's mind, and he immediately raised his sword. The sword light rose from below, illuminating the night sky and even cutting a gap in the flying snow.

Gui Bei felt his vision flash by the sword light and blinked subconsciously. When he opened his eyes again, he saw sword-wielding figures in front of him, all of them Li Qingqiu.

Almost instantly, all thirty-six of Gui Bei's clones were killed by Li Qingqiu's sword energy clones.

Li Qingqiu's spiritual sense finally detected the soul aura of the Ghost Wolf. He appeared out of thin air behind a Ghost Wolf clone that had been cut in half at the waist. He took out the Soul Refining Flag with his left hand, poured his vital energy into it, and quickly waved it, intending to take away its soul.

A domineering force suddenly pulled the ghost's soul into a large hall in front of them, causing Li Qingqiu's Soul Refining Flag to miss its target.

Li Qingqiu stopped and turned to look at the main hall.

Shen Yue and the four-armed old man, who were fighting each other, were both shocked by Li Qingqiu's strength.

"Is that Jiang Zhaoxia's supernatural power? He mastered it so quickly, and his sword has become even faster..."

Shen Yue was secretly alarmed. He had been cultivating with all his might, but he found that the gap between him and Li Qingqiu was widening.

If it weren't for the testimony of Jiang Zhaoxia and others, he would have seriously suspected that Li Qingqiu was an old monster who had lived for hundreds of years in disguise.

The four-armed old man was filled with fear. He knew the strength of the ghost wolf very well. The ranking of these sixteen evil ghosts was based entirely on actual combat, and the top three were all unshakeable beings.

That person almost killed the ghost with just two moves!

The four-armed elder realized that this Qingxiao Sect Master was no ordinary person; no wonder he dared to establish a cultivation sect in the Nine Provinces.

Shen Yue seized the opportunity, stepped forward with his right foot, and unleashed the Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin technique. Countless sword shadows gathered around the four-armed old man, all piercing his body and rendering him unable to move.

Li Qingqiu turned to look at Shen Yue and asked, "Don't be reckless. Do you need me to help?"

With his back to Li Qingqiu, Shen Yue said, "Your opponent is inside. Don't try to take it from me. My fate might be terrible, but I believe I can destroy him."

Li Qingqiu gave Shen Yue a deep look, then walked towards the enormous palace.

Inside the palace.

The ghost wolf collapsed to its knees at the bottom of the steps, panting heavily, its face filled with terror, as was the half of its wolf face.

Although he was saved by the Great Demon Luo, Li Qingqiu's supernatural powers caused him great harm.

The Great Demon King, who was sitting cross-legged above, slowly opened his eyes. His gaze was fixed on the main hall entrance, his eyes deep and unfathomable.

"Weren't you so arrogant before? Stand up now, you're making a fool of yourself!"

The Great Demon Luo spoke, his tone displeased.

Upon hearing this, Gui Bei was jolted awake from his dream and hurriedly got up, trembling.

Footsteps came from the gate. Gui Bei turned around and looked, his expression still tense.

Li Qingqiu appeared at the gate, walking towards it with his sword in hand.

"May I ask, fellow Daoist, which school of Daoist teachings do you follow?"

The Great Demon Luo asked, his voice hoarse.

Li Qingqiu, shrouded in darkness, countered with, "Then who do you think I learned my skills from?"

"If it didn't come from the Azure Dragon Sect, it must have received the inheritance of the Taijue Sect."

The Great Demon's tone was devoid of any emotion; there was no anger, no unease, and no fear.

Taijue Sect?
Li Qingqiu thought of the [Tai Jue Sword Control Technique] that Yang Jueding had obtained. It seemed that the Tai Jue Sect was once a cultivation sect in the Nine Provinces, and the only overlord. Otherwise, why would the Great Demon Luo mention it?
"If you want to establish a Ghost Dynasty, why must it be on this land?" Li Qingqiu asked, his spiritual sense spreading out at the same time.

The Great Demon King stared at Li Qingqiu and said, "You know about the Ghost Dynasty, so it seems that my brothers were killed by you. However, the fact that you asked this question shows that you don't understand this world at all."

He slowly stood up, and billowing ghostly energy spread from his feet, covering the steps and surging towards Li Qingqiu.

"Then let me tell you, the northern border is a dangerous place, where true terror is hidden. To the west is the Azure Dragon Domain, where there are many cultivation sects. Your Qingxiao Sect would not even be considered a third-rate sect in the Azure Dragon Domain. As for going east to the sea, the sea is far more dangerous than the land. I can only go south."

"Li Qingqiu, considering the difficulty you faced in establishing your sect, I will give you a chance. You and your disciples should retreat immediately, and I will allow your Qingxiao Sect to continue to stand in the land of Kyushu and share the resources of heaven and earth with the Ghost Dynasty. If you remain obstinate, then your Qingxiao Sect will join the Ghost Dynasty as soldiers."

The Great Demon Lord's aura surged with each word, reaching its peak when he finished speaking, causing the palace to tremble. A vast wave of ghostly energy swept towards Li Qingqiu.

This is an incredibly terrifying ghostly aura!

At this moment, all the Qingxiao Sect disciples in the city could feel the fear and trepidation, and they all turned to look.

The monsters, however, went berserk and launched an even more ferocious attack.

Rumbling--

Thunder roared in the night sky, and a dark and ferocious dragon emerged from the rolling dark clouds.

Feeling the terrifying aura of the Great Demon King, the unease in Gui Bei's heart dissipated. He was pleasantly surprised, not expecting that the Great Demon King's cultivation had recovered to such a level.

He looked at Li Qingqiu again, his wolf-like face contorted in a ferocious grin, his human face mocking.

Li Qingqiu looked shocked, which made Gui Bei even more smug.

"It's impossible for someone at the Spiritual Consciousness Realm to shake this power. Hurry up and kneel down to beg for mercy!" Ghostly Wolf laughed wildly.

The Great Demon stood on the steps, his back straight, his aged body slowly growing taller, his white hair fluttering, like a demon god standing proudly in his own ghost realm.

Li Qingqiu's shocked expression vanished quickly, replaced by a chilling killing intent.

His change of expression abruptly silenced the arrogant laughter of the ghostly figure.

"Such terrifying power, leaving you in this world, I truly cannot sleep or eat in peace." Li Qingqiu's voice rang out, and as soon as he finished speaking, the Tianhong Sword in his hand overflowed with wisps of sword energy, which quickly became dense, like a raging flame, the fire rising higher than the top of his head.

Chu Jing's soul materialized and appeared, also wielding a sword shadow similar to the Rainbow Sword.

He stood behind Li Qingqiu, towering two zhang tall, his aura exploding and scattering the surrounding ghostly energy.

"This is the master's vital energy..."

Chu Jing, in his sword spirit state, did not reveal his true appearance. He was utterly shocked as he felt the vast and boundless primordial energy within his body.

He had never seen such terrifying primordial energy, and he suddenly felt that all his scheming in his previous life was utterly ridiculous.

Faced with such overwhelming power, all schemes and tricks are futile.

Seeing Li Qingqiu summon his sword spirit, the Great Demon Luo frowned. In an instant, four figures emerged from the ghostly aura in front of him. They were all black, like ghost generals wearing armor, and they wielded various weapons to slash at Li Qingqiu.

Li Qingqiu raised his sword and pointed it at the Great Demon Luo.

Chu Jing felt an unstoppable force compelling him to swing his sword.

With a single sword strike, terrifying sword energy pierced through the palace walls, obliterating everything in front of it, including the four ghost generals.

boom--

The Great Demon Lord raised his hand, using his own ghostly energy to block Li Qingqiu's sword energy. His brows furrowed, and anger blazed in his eyes.

"Do you really think I wouldn't dare kill you?"

For the first time, the Great Demon King's voice contained rage, like the might of heaven, and the sound reverberated through the shattered palace.

As soon as the words were spoken, the entire palace exploded, sending billowing dust into the air, which then rushed into the swirling snow.

Shen Yue, who was fighting the four-armed old man, was thrown away by the powerful force and flew out of the governor's mansion. He finally landed on a roof. His left hand gripped the roof beam tightly. He gritted his teeth and looked at the governor's mansion.

"What kind of power is this..."

Shen Yue's blood and qi were shaken by the pressure, and his sword intent was almost shattered.

Even Jiang Zhaoxia was taken aback. He was more than ten miles away from the governor's mansion, but he could still feel the oppressive aura of the Great Demon King.

Just by sensing this ghostly aura, he knew that he could not defeat the Great Demon.

The disciples of Qingxiao Sect turned their heads in fear, not to mention the soldiers.

Zhao Zhen, Ji Ya, Li Yang, Yan Daozong, Yun Cai, the three Xiao brothers, Jian Du, Xue Jin, and others all showed expressions of fear and disbelief.

Immediately afterwards, all the Qingxiao Sect disciples saw two figures rush out of the governor's mansion and fly into the night sky, like two shooting stars colliding rapidly, constantly creating powerful shockwaves.

Li Qingqiu wielded his sword swiftly, his swordplay fierce and his sword energy overflowing.

The Great Demon Luo wielded a sword formed from condensed ghostly energy. His swordsmanship was in no way inferior to Li Qingqiu's. At this moment, his body was covered by ghostly energy, and his aged face was melting away. As sparks flew, his white bones were being revealed.

boom--

A human and a ghost descended from the sky, crashing through buildings in the city and stirring up billowing snow and dust.

Li Qingqiu raised his left hand and used his supernatural power to move mountains and suppress gods. The stone slabs and courtyard walls of the entire street rose up and crashed down on the Great Demon Luo like a tidal wave.

The Great Demon Luo stared at Li Qingqiu, his ghost sword trembled, and burst forth with thousands of blood-red lightning bolts, piercing through the mountain-moving and sea-overturning attack.

He transformed into a bolt of lightning and charged towards Li Qingqiu at a speed far exceeding his previous speed.

Li Qingqiu directly used his Extreme Movement Technique to dodge the ghost sword. As he swung his sword, a black sword aura swept across the long street, covering half a mile. Many corpses hiding in the shadows were shredded by his sword aura, and some of Liu Jing's soldiers were also caught in the crossfire.

The sheer power of Da Molu's casual sword strike caused Shen Yue and Jiang Zhaoxia's pupils to dilate.
