Unreliable Sword Immortal.

Chapter 198 A Reliable Sect Leader

Yan Shangjing gazed at Hongchen Seven Realms Mountain and said, "This is the second time I've come to this mountain, and I don't want there to be a third!"

Dao Zangkong's eyes gleamed with an unusual light as he said, "This mountain didn't exist two hundred years ago. Sinking it into the sea wouldn't be difficult! Fellow Daoist, shall we directly storm the mountain?"

Yan Shangjing waved her sleeve and said, "That's exactly what I was thinking!"

Daozang Kong then asked, "Would you like to try forming a team?"

"Team up?"

Yan Shangjing fell silent upon hearing this.

The system endows AI players with independent personalities, while also giving them the complexities of human nature.

Yesterday, Dao Zangkong successfully refined the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir. Under the influence of the elixir, their injuries were greatly healed, and their strength increased significantly. Although they were still far from their peak, they believed that this was enough to make them stand out in the world.

Both of them had their own agendas in bringing them here together.

Compared to Lu Chaoding, they actually had more reservations about each other.

Yan Shangjing was a notorious demoness with a ruthless reputation for fifty years, known as the Demon Shadow Who Defies Heaven. When she was at her peak, even the nine sons of Qilin Cliff could only slightly suppress her when they joined forces. She considered herself invincible in one-on-one combat.

Dao Zang Kong rose to fame two hundred years ago as the Supreme Elder of the Great Sword Sect. In his era, he was a peerless genius on par with Ye Longxing. If Ye Longxing was a giant of the demonic path, then Dao Zang Kong was the leader of the righteous path.

These two are now traveling together, constantly testing each other's strength in secret. They are not afraid that the other is weaker than themselves, but rather that the other is stronger.

As AI players, they now understand many of the system settings.

For example, forming a team!

After forming a team, you can activate the team panel, where you can view the opponent's basic attribute information, such as level, health, and attack power.

While this data may not represent the full extent of the other party's strength, it is certainly an important reference.

Daozang Kong proposed forming a team because he wanted to see Yan Shangjing's level.

"If this demoness agrees to join the team, we can see her level information. If she doesn't agree, it at least proves that she lacks confidence... This demoness is somewhat arrogant, and her methods are peculiar. I guess she currently possesses peak extraordinary strength, but her level is probably not high, probably no higher than level 80!"

Daozang Kong pondered silently, a gentle smile on his face.

He is currently level 85!

Yan Shangjing suddenly laughed and then sent a team invitation to Daozang Kong, saying, "Teaming up is a good idea. We're both injured, so teaming up will help us look after each other!"

Daozang Kong waved his hand and laughed, "I was just joking. Why would a third-rate sect need to form a team? You have a grudge against that reliable sect leader Lu Chao. Go ahead and fight your way up the mountain. It's more satisfying to settle things with your own hands. I'll be there to support you from behind. Actually, I'm good at escape techniques, and I haven't studied combat methods much."

"Yeah?"

Yan Shangjing narrowed her eyes but said nothing more. With her hands behind her back and her feet stepping on the void, she marched toward Hongchen Seven Realms Mountain with unparalleled domineering presence.

Soon, the demoness was discovered by two nine-foot-tall golden lions. The two nine-foot-tall golden lions emitted a golden glow and immediately roared to warn the demons. The roar shook the clouds in the sky, and three auspicious seven-colored clouds flew quickly to the top of the mountain gate as if summoned.

Below the gate of Seven Realms Mountain, a dock has been built, and next to the dock is a shipyard overseen by Elder Xiao Wudi and Elder Xiao Shishui.

A large number of players from the Da Bao Construction Corps were busy in the shipyard. The two NPCs, Xiao Wudi and Xiao Shishui, were also in the shipyard at this time. They heard the roar of the Nine-Foot Golden Lion as a warning, looked at each other, and immediately showed their anger.

"The golden lion roars as a warning; an enemy is approaching!"

"Even Yan Shangjing was driven away by the sect leader. This elder wants to see who is so fierce and arrogant that they dare to invade my sect!"

The two immediately flew out of the shipyard and flew in unison towards the nine-foot-tall golden lion. After landing on the lion's head, they immediately took over control as elders.

Then, they saw Yan Shangjing.

"Oh no, that vixen is back!"

"Quickly, inform the sect leader!"

The two shipbuilding elders' expressions changed drastically.

They are now also AI players, but they are different from Yan Shangjing and Daozang Kong. They are more like real NPCs, but they do not have the self-awareness or clear understanding of their own player identity.

Meanwhile, at the mountain gate square, Elder Ding Quanzhen, the weapon-refining elder, and a large number of reliable sword sect players were also attracted by the roar of the nine-foot golden lion and all looked towards the sea.

In just that short moment, the once clear daytime sky was now half-filled with countless "Yan Shang Jing" (a type of bird).

Yan Shangjing unleashed her clone technique, filling the sky with her clones.

She embodies the spirit of single-handedly wiping out entire families and slaughtering entire mountains.

Daozang Kong followed her at a distance, watching with considerable curiosity.

Suddenly, a large sword flew out from the direction of the top of Hongchen Seven Realms Mountain.

Although it was called a greatsword, in Daozang Kong and Yan Shangjing's eyes, it looked more like a sword-shaped flying boat.

Lu Chaoding was standing on the bow of the Great Xuan Sword at this moment. He looked at the countless phantom images of Yan Shangjing, his eyes almost shining.

"Very well, very well, you've come at the perfect time! You've chosen the path to hell instead of heaven, saving me the trouble of searching for you!"

A smile appeared on Lu Chaoding's face. With a thought, he took the seven Nine-Scaled Calamity Mirrors from his equipment slot and replaced them with the Super Commoner Sword.

He was afraid that the seven Nine-Scaled Calamity Mirrors would scare Yan Shangjing away, so he planned to take them out and use them suddenly during the battle to settle the score.

After all, he possesses the characteristics of the Limitless Sword Immortal, allowing him to change outfits at any time.

"Brother Ding is here! Is Brother Ding going to personally deal with the big boss, the witch?"

"Quick, quick, start a live stream! This amazing storyline absolutely has to be spread..."

Countless reliable sword players were excited and thrilled to see Lu Chaoding appear, while a group of players led by Zhang Defa started a live stream.

Ignoring the players below, Lu Chao walked straight and forcefully to the outside of the mountain gate, where he stood proudly. At this moment, Yan Shangjing's clones had entered his range, so he took the lead and used the [Gaze Sword Technique] to kill with his gaze.

As Lu Chaoding's gaze swept over Yan Shangjing's many clones, damage numbers, namely "-4", quickly appeared above their heads.

Such damage was naturally inconspicuous, and no other players noticed it. However, Yan Shangjing was aware of it. Her illusory figure in the sky stopped, and everyone looked at Lu Chaoding, shouting in unison, "Reliable Sword Sect Leader Lu Chaoding, player Lu Chaoding, hahahaha, is this your skill? It's laughable! Today, I, Yan Shangjing, have returned to Seven Realms Mountain. You and all the players in the mountain will be wiped out and never exist again!"

"Arrogant!" Lu Chao remained unfazed, his hands clasped behind his back, exuding an air of authority. He declared, "We players are immortal and can resurrect infinitely. How dare you, this witch, try to wipe us all out of this world?"

"You'll find out soon enough!"

The countless illusory clones all spoke in unison, their power terrifying.

"I'm afraid you'll regret it!"

Lu Chaoding snorted lightly, grabbed at the air, and roared, "Sword, come!"

The next moment, a sliver of sword light pierced through the air and appeared on Lu Chao's right hand.

That would of course be [Blade & Soul: Super Scoundrel].

Of course, this super scoundrel was in the form of a longsword at this moment. He appeared on Lu Chaoding's right hand, emitting a clanging sound of swords, and blood light flashed on the blade, dazzling to the eye.

After returning from the ancient sword cultivator's cave, Lu Chaoding gave Super Ruffian a lot of blood materials, such as [Golden Crow Blood] and [Pure Dark Blood], which were top-tier materials. He also gave him many fourth and fifth-tier longswords to devour. After that, he let Super Ruffian run his own errands, letting him farm dungeons, monsters, and pirates at will.

With the longsword in hand, Lu Chao was quite pleased, because this "Super Commoner" had already boosted his attack power to 300,000, and the "Super Invincible" and "Commoner's Ultimate Kill" attack effects had been mastered!

"Not a six-star sword, but better than a six-star sword; one sword is worth a thousand swords!"

Lu Chao laughed heartily, tossed the Super Pessimist Sword with a flick of his wrist, and the [Greatly Outrageous Dividing Light Sword Technique] was activated, turning one Super Pessimist Sword into a pile of Super Pessimist Swords.

Lu Chaoding's ordinary super commoner sword also split into sword shadows, totaling eight swords and 2048 sword shadows.

"kill!"

Lu Chaoding no longer hesitated. Taking advantage of his long range, he launched an attack first, killing Yan Shangjing's clones with each sword strike, each strike instantly.

Soon, Lu Chaoding deployed the Black Cloud Formation again. Large swaths of black clouds descended from the sky, gathering into a ball. Within it, sword shadows flickered and lightning surged. A large number of Yan Shangjing's phantoms poured into it, but before they could launch an attack, they were obliterated, like moths drawn to a flame.

Seeing this scene from behind, Daozang Kong frowned slightly.

"This looks just like Ye Longxing's Black Cloud Formation. This Sect Leader Lu actually learned it?"

His expression became more serious. Suddenly, he raised his hand and pointed forward, causing the void to distort. Above Lu Chao's head, a hole suddenly appeared, with spatial cracks within it.

At this moment, the Super Commoner Sword and the sword shadows suddenly flew uncontrollably toward the void. Even the cloud formation of the Black Cloud Formation also flew rapidly toward the void, as if the void had a great suction force, specifically sucking in Lu Chao's weapon and the Black Cloud Formation.

"The universe is boundless, the Dao is contained within the void. In the name of the Sword God of the Universe, I strip you of your weapon and send you into the void. This is the Great Universe Void-Breaking Divine Sword!"

Dao Zangkong spoke calmly, but his voice boomed like thunder, shaking the sky and causing Lu Chao to stiffen and take a step back.

Only then did he notice Daozang Kong. As his gaze swept over, blood began to ooze from Daozang Kong's head, and his maximum health decreased by one point per second.

"Who is he...?"

Lu Chao didn't recognize Dao Zangkong at all, and couldn't see his attribute information at the moment, but he immediately felt wary of him.

Because of his casual move, he severed his connection with the seven super swords and broke his Black Cloud Formation.

Those seven Super Rogue Swords were all fully refined five-star weapons, and now they've disappeared from the equipment slots as if they were lost. This loss is considerable.

Only the Blade Spirit Super Rogue was unaffected by the strange suction force and remained equipped in Lu Chao's weapon slot.

Lu Chaoding immediately regarded Daozang Kong as a major enemy.

He acted decisively, and flew towards Daozang Kong with his sword.

Daozang Kong laughed heartily, and his figure suddenly vanished into thin air, disappearing without a trace.

"You scoundrel!"

Lu Chaoding felt he had suffered a great loss and was depressed. Suddenly, he saw Yan Shangjing constantly creating clones.

Without a doubt, that is the real body!

"kill!"

Lu Chao released the Black Blade Tiger, transforming it into a tank. He then drove the tank and wielded the greatsword. With a wave of his hand, a dense barrage of mechanical missiles enveloped Yan Shangjing's main body.

Thus, the real battle finally began. Lu Chaoding and Yan Shangjing's true forms simultaneously transformed into light and dissipated. They entered the battle space, where a huge battle banner appeared in mid-air.

"Top Bro has entered the battle space!"

"Does Ding Ge have a chance of winning?"

"Everyone must trust Brother Ding, trust the sect leader!"

"Brother Ding, you're brave and determined, well done! Even if you lost, it's not shameful!"

"Why are those clones still here? Oh dear, they're flying this way!"

"Prepare for battle! Form ranks!"

"Speed ​​120 points, click to join a team, let's start a large raid!"

"Prepare for battle..."

As Yan Shangjing's many clones approached, the Nine-Foot Golden Lion was activated, the Seven-Colored Auspicious Clouds launched an attack, and a large number of reliable sword sect players also formed teams to prepare for the battle.

As for Lu Chaoding, after entering the battle space, he didn't waste any words and immediately equipped himself with the Nine-Sided Nine-Scaled Calamity Mirror.

"Um?"

Yan Shangjing continued to create clones, but she was also taken aback when she saw the Nine-Scaled Calamity Mirror appearing above Lu Chao's head.

"That's the Nine-Scaled Calamity Mirror, a treasure of Qilin Cliff! Impossible! Wasn't the mirror broken? How could you possibly have it, and seven of them at that!"

Yan Shangjing took a step back, showing some panic.

Lu Chao retorted, "Don't be afraid, these are all counterfeit goods!"

He was too lazy to say much now. There was a powerful old man outside who could take away his bound weapons. If he dragged things out with Yan Shangjing here, his old nest might be destroyed by him.

The one-minute preparation time quickly came to an end. Once the battle began, Lu Chaoding's speed far surpassed Yan Shangjing's. He took the initiative and used seven [Nine-Scale Divine Light] beams to blast Yan Shangjing back seven steps, dealing significant damage.

In the second round, Lu Chao again took the lead, coldly saying, "You vixen Yan Shangqing, in the name of the reliable sword sect leader, I unleash the Sevenfold Qilin Tribulation upon you. Your past sins will be settled today; you have only yourself to blame!"

After saying this, Lu Chao consumed 30 points of battle spirit, and the seven Nine-Scaled Tribulation Mirrors above his head flew out at the same time, quickly transforming into balls of light, each ball of light splitting into nine-headed Qilin divine beasts.

In the blink of an eye, the nine-headed Qilin divine beast pounced on Yan Shangjing. They were majestic and fierce, tearing Yan Shangjing to pieces in the blink of an eye, and then quickly attacking her clones.

Compared to those mythical Qilin beasts, Yan Shangjing and her clone were as thin as paper.

In less than two minutes, all of Yan Shangjing's clones in the battle space were killed, and the battle in the battle space ended. However, the battle of the Qilin Divine Beasts did not stop. They disappeared into the void and quickly reappeared in Hongchen Seven Realms Mountain to attack those Yan Shangjing who had broken into the mountain gate.

Even more remarkably, a mythical Qilin beast entered other players' battle spaces and attacked Yan Shangjing's clones within those spaces.
