He knew Li Changsheng's prowess well, and if he didn't go all out today, he probably wouldn't be able to gain any advantage.
So he channeled all his power and wielded the demonic sword with impenetrable force, each strike carrying earth-shattering power.
However, Li Changsheng moved through the sword light as if strolling in a garden, finding the perfect opening each time and easily deflecting Yu Shengmo's attacks.
Sometimes he would use his fingers as swords to strike Yu Shengmo's vital points; other times he would flash behind Yu Shengmo and deliver a fatal blow.
However, he always stopped at the crucial moment, clearly indicating that he did not intend to truly harm Yu Shengmo.
The people of Tianqi City below looked up at this astonishing duel, all marveling at the extraordinary strength of the two masters.
They either stared intently, or whispered amongst themselves, adding to the lively atmosphere of this rare martial arts competition.
Just then, Li Changsheng suddenly stopped, a look of seriousness flashing in his eyes.
He sensed that the demonic energy within Yusheng's body was rapidly expanding, clearly having reached its limit.
If we don't intervene soon, Yu Shengmo might go mad and die.
"Rain-born Demon, that's enough!"
Li Changsheng let out a low shout, his figure suddenly leaping up as he struck out with a palm.
This palm strike contained all his life's power, carrying a righteous aura, and aimed directly at Yu Shengmo's chest.
Upon seeing this, Yu Shengmo was startled and tried to dodge, but it was too late.
He had no choice but to bite the bullet and swing his sword to meet the attack. With a loud clang, the two forces collided violently in mid-air, bursting forth with dazzling light.
After the light faded, Yu Shengmo's face was pale, and a trace of blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
The demonic sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, clearly indicating that he was no longer able to fight.
Li Changsheng stood still, his breathing steady, as if the palm strike had no effect on him whatsoever.
"you lose."
Li Changsheng said calmly, without a trace of smugness in his tone.
He stepped forward and helped Yu Shengmo up. "Your inner demons are too strong. You need to cultivate your mind and character properly. Otherwise, no matter how strong your martial arts are, you will eventually be defeated."
Upon hearing this, Yu Shengmo's eyes flashed with a complex emotion.
He looked at Li Changsheng, and after a long while, he slowly said, "I... lost again."
“Go back and remove your demonic powers, then find a sword technique to practice properly. In five years, come and challenge me again. Perhaps you will have a chance to win,” Li Changsheng said calmly, a look of mutual respect in his eyes.
Although Yu Shengmo has always regarded him as a target of challenge over the years, Li Changsheng has come to regard Yu Shengmo as his friend.
Yu Shengmo practiced demonic arts in order to overcome himself, which almost led to him going mad from the cultivation.
This is also something Li Changsheng doesn't want to see.
But then Yu Shengmo laughed: "No, I'm not fighting anymore. I can't fight anymore... cough cough..."
"Can't fight anymore?" Li Changsheng was taken aback, sensing that Yu Shengmo's words had a hidden meaning. He instantly appeared beside Yu Shengmo and took Yu Shengmo's pulse.
Li Chengtian and Mingyue Xin also flew over at this moment and landed beside them.
“Li Changsheng, there’s no need to take my pulse. I’m going to die soon,” said Yu Sheng, the Demonic Path. “Over the years, I’ve been cultivating demonic arts, and my heart meridian has long since suffered a backlash from them.”
I only have less than three months left, otherwise I wouldn't have rashly come to Apocalypse City to challenge it again.
Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng's expression changed drastically. He knew the dangers of cultivating demonic arts, especially for martial artists like Yu Shengmo who pursued power at all costs. Their bodies had already been riddled with holes by demonic energy.
He frowned and tried to use his inner strength to suppress the demonic energy within Yu Shengmo's body, but found that the demonic energy was like a maggot clinging to a bone, difficult to eradicate.
"Mr. Li, you don't need to trouble yourself."
Yu Shengmo weakly waved his hand, but his eyes gleamed with an unusual light. "Throughout my life, I have pursued the ultimate in martial arts, but I have also paid a heavy price for it. Today, I am honored to receive guidance from Mr. Li, even in defeat."
Li Chengtian observed quietly from the side, having already made up his mind.
He knew that if martial artists like Yu Shengmo were not properly settled, they would likely become a major hidden danger in the martial arts world.
However, if properly guided, it could become a helpful force.
“Rain-born Demon, since you know your days are numbered, why not pass on this power instead of letting it disappear with your passing?” Li Chengtian spoke slowly, his voice steady and powerful.
Upon hearing this, Yu Shengmo turned his gaze to Li Chengtian, a hint of surprise and curiosity flashing in his eyes. "Oh? What's your insight?"
Li Chengtian smiled slightly, walked up to Yu Shengmo, and gently placed his right hand on his shoulder.
"Not only can I save you, but I can also bestow upon you a superior martial art, allowing you to pass on all your life's learning for the rest of your life."
Yu Shengmo was stunned. He had never thought he would have a chance to live, let alone obtain more profound martial arts.
He looked at Li Chengtian, his eyes filled with a mixture of disbelief and anticipation.
"You, you must be joking, right?" Yu Shengmo's voice trembled slightly; he couldn't believe that what he was seeing was real.
Li Chengtian shook his head, his expression serious. "I never joke. But I have conditions: you must submit to me and become a member of my Daqing. What do you say?"
Yu Shengmo remained silent for a moment, knowing full well that his time was running out, and the conditions proposed by Li Chengtian were undoubtedly a huge temptation for him. He looked at Li Changsheng, who nodded slightly, his eyes full of encouragement and trust.
"Alright! I promise you!" Yu Shengmo finally made up his mind, knowing that this was his last chance.
Li Chengtian nodded in satisfaction, then closed his eyes and concentrated. A powerful internal force surged from his body and surrounded Yu Shengmo.
Under Li Chengtian's guidance, the rampant demonic energy gradually subsided, and Yu Shengmo's face gradually regained some color.
"This...this is..." Yu Shengmo was so shocked that he couldn't speak as he felt the warm and pure power within his body.
"This is a unique healing method from Daqing."
Li Chengtian explained calmly, "It can temporarily suppress the demonic energy within you, buying you more time."
Yu Shengmo looked at Li Chengtian with gratitude, knowing that this kindness would be something he would remember for the rest of his life.
"Thank you for saving my life, Your Excellency!" Yu Shengmo bowed deeply, his tone full of sincerity.
Li Chengtian smiled slightly and took out an ancient sword manual from his bosom, handing it to Yu Shengmo.
"This is a unique martial art of my Daqing – the 'Flowing Cloud Sword Technique.' Its swordplay is light, graceful, and endlessly varied. Given your talent for martial arts, you are sure to be able to carry it forward and make it great."
Chapter 122 Lü Suzhen arrives in Tianqi City, and Emperor Tai'an can no longer sit still! (Please subscribe!)
With trembling hands, Yu Shengmo accepted the sword manual, his heart pounding with excitement.
He knew that this was not just a sword technique, but also Li Chengtian's trust and expectations of him.
"Rest assured, Your Majesty, Yusheng Mo will certainly live up to your expectations!" he solemnly promised, his eyes shining with unwavering determination.
Li Chengtian nodded slightly and waved his right hand towards the sky.
Suddenly, a golden light descended from the sky.
Then, Bai Xiaosheng reappeared beside Li Chengtian.
Upon seeing Li Chengtian, Bai Xiaosheng bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Excellency! Ye Dingzhi, Lei Wujie, Sikong Changfeng, and Wen Hujiu have been brought to the Daqing World as Your Excellency has arranged."
Ye Dingzhi has already become a disciple of Gongzi Yu, and the other three have also been assigned similar positions.
"Well done, get up!" Li Chengtian nodded in satisfaction, then said to Bai Xiaosheng, who had just stood up, "Take Yusheng back now and arrange a good place for him to cultivate."
And he asked Gongzi Yu to help remove his demonic powers, so that he could return to the right path and begin cultivation anew.
"Yes." After saying that, Bai Xiaosheng immediately left with Yushengmo.
Li Changsheng was so surprised by this scene that his jaw almost dropped. He walked over to Li Chengtian and asked, "Your Excellency, could it be that Yusheng Demon went to the Daqing World you mentioned?"
“That’s right.” Li Chengtian shrugged, looked at Li Changsheng with a smile, and asked, “Mr. Li, would you also like to visit Daqing World?”
"Me too?" Li Changsheng's eyes lit up, his face full of longing. "If fate allows, I would also like to go and have a good look at the Daqing World you mentioned."
"After all, this world is just too boring!"
Having been the number one in the world for so many years, Li Changsheng always felt that every day was like a passing river.
He finally lost, the number one in the world, and felt much relieved.
But if he were to continue living in this world, he would only find it extremely boring.
Being able to go to another new world would be the best thing for him.
"Once I've finished dealing with my business, I'll naturally bring Mr. Li to my world." Li Chengtian smiled faintly, calculating the time; three months was not far off.
He needs to speed things up and bring all the world's top experts under his command.
In this way, when the Daqing army suddenly appeared, it was able to conquer all and unify the world in one fell swoop.
……
Outside Tianqi City.
The Venerable Envoy Wuxiang and Yueqing from the Outer Heavens have already rushed over.
Looking at the city gates of Tianqi City, the fierce scene of the battle many years ago flashed through the mind of the Venerable Wuxiang.
If it weren't for that defeat by General Ye Yu of Beili, which forced him to flee north...
Why should he hide in that extremely cold place in the outer heavens?
Now, standing outside Tianqi City again, a murderous intent welled up within him.
He wished he could rush into the Beili Imperial Palace right now and kill that damned Emperor Tai'an of Beili.
But he didn't.
