Covering the Sky: The Years I Was the Empress's Strictest Master

boom!

Hua Cang Sheng Ling's enormous body exploded like shattered porcelain!

Crimson fragments of divine metal mixed with the burning source of azure flames scattered everywhere!

A powerful fire-elemental stone spirit was actually shattered by a single palm strike?!

"what?!"

Everything happened in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this scene, Lei Huang, Cui Linglong, Qing Teng, and several other holy spirits not far away were all horrified.

The three sons of the underworld were also greatly shocked, and their offensive involuntarily slowed down.

However, Li Qingjue's actions did not stop there.

Her figure moved again, like an unknown being walking between nothingness and reality, and in an instant she appeared beside the Holy Spirit Lei Huang.

She pointed her fingers like a sword and touched his brow.

Swish!

"How dare you?!"

The Holy Spirit of Thunder roared, the dragon's head howled, and endless lightning gathered between its brows, transforming into a divine shield of thunder.

At the same time, his dragon claw tore through the void and struck Li Qingjue.

In response, Li Qingjue's finger remained unchanged, still pointing directly at the Thunder Shield.

Click!

With a single finger, the Thunder God Shield, which should theoretically be able to defend against any enemy below the Quasi-Emperor level, shattered like paper.

wow...

Li Qingjue's slender fingers continued their relentless attack, striking Lei Huang Shengming's forehead.

Clang...

Immediately, the massive body of the Thunderous Holy Spirit stiffened abruptly.

The light in his eyes quickly dimmed, and a small, translucent hole suddenly appeared between his brows.

The violent vitality and thunderous essence contained within were instantly devoured by the strange aura unleashed by Li Qingjue, aura amplified by the endless dark demonic energy.

Boom!

Its massive body crashed to the ground, turning into a pile of lifeless, unyielding stones.

In the blink of an eye, two powerful Holy Spirits were killed!

"Don't underestimate this person. Her cultivation method is too bizarre. She can devour the source of life at will and constantly strengthen herself..."

Cui Linglong, the Holy Spirit, paled and cried out in a shrill voice.

As they were speaking,

She and the Green Vine Holy Spirit retreated rapidly, each unleashing their strongest defensive abilities.

Her pure white, holy wings enveloped her tightly, and the three holy spirits of the Green Vine merged into one, transforming into a towering ancient vine, with countless tendrils layered upon each other to protect her.

the other side,

The three sons of the underworld also felt a strange threat.

The black-robed woman's strength far exceeded their expectations. Although her strange Devouring Demon Art was not their nemesis, it still left them feeling somewhat helpless and extremely troublesome.

"Form the array! Condense the illusory image of the Underworld Lord!"

Suddenly, the Prince of the Underworld shouted.

Upon hearing this, Yanluozi and Zhenyuzi exchanged a glance, then quickly moved closer together.

boom……

In an instant, the three of them merged, their deathly auras surging and forming a single mass.

In an instant, a blurry, terrifying phantom appeared behind them, wearing a flat-topped crown and ancient imperial robes.

Rumble...

Without any further ado, the moment the illusory figure materialized from their combined efforts, they abruptly raised their hand.

A gigantic, pitch-black hand, entwined with countless wronged souls and bearing terrifying death runes, pressed down upon Li Qingjue!

This is a secret technique developed by some beings from the three lineages of the underworld during their leisure time throughout the ages. It is a combined attack technique that can be performed using the powerful artifacts of each lineage and is incredibly powerful.

Seeing this situation,

Perhaps feeling that it was time for Cui Linglong and the Three Holy Spirits of Qing Teng to retaliate, they no longer held back while protecting themselves.

Emerald Jade burns with the primordial energy of the Holy Spirit.

Her pure white wings were stained with blood, and her jade-like body seemed to have grown real flesh and blood.

The holy light emanating from her body transformed into a blood-red divine sword, which was actually a powerful weapon bestowed upon her by the ancestral court of the Northern Dipper Holy Spirit, tearing through the void and slashing towards Li Qingjue.

rustling sounds!

Beside him, the three sacred spirits of the Green Vine, all originating from the same source, now merged into one, transforming into a vibrant green spear that pierced through heaven and earth, aiming for Li Qingjue's heart.

Surrounded by this deadly trap, Li Qingjue felt a slight surge of black mist around him.

She seemed to let out a barely audible snort, and then her other hand, which had been hidden in her sleeve, finally emerged.

That hand was still eerily white, as if it lacked any color in it.

However, as the crowd of heroes looked over from afar, they were surprised to see that he was holding something in his fair palm.

It was a broken bronze wheel, no bigger than the palm of your hand.

The roulette wheel has serrated edges, a blurred center, and is covered in verdigris. It looks unremarkable and even somewhat dilapidated.

But at the very moment this bronze wheel appeared...

The principles governing this underground palace and tomb seemed to resonate with it for a moment!

"A forbidden artifact of the demon race?!"

Among the crowd, a wise and knowledgeable elder of the Great Sage was shocked and speechless.

Whoosh!

At this moment, Li Qingjue didn't even glance at the crimson divine sword and green vine spear attacking from behind.

She simply pushed the broken bronze wheel in her hand gently towards the giant, illusory hand of the Underworld Lord that was pressing down on her.

hum...

A slight tremor sounded.

Then,

The broken bronze wheel flew out silently, swelled in the wind, and instantly grew to a size of about ten feet.

The roulette wheel spun slowly, without emitting any dazzling divine light or terrifying pressure.

Only an ancient and desolate aura, a terrifying meaning that seemed capable of obliterating all principles and suppressing the vastness of time and space, permeated the air.

Boom!!

The enormous, black hand that the phantom of the Underworld Lord slammed down touched the spinning bronze wheel phantom.

Like ice and snow melting away, disintegrating inch by inch, even the illusory image of the Underworld Lord behind it let out a silent roar, quickly becoming illusory and transparent, and finally vanishing with a roar.

"puff!!"

"puff……"

On the spot, the three sons of the underworld were struck as if by a heavy blow, spitting out mouthfuls of black blood at the same time. Their auras instantly weakened, and their eyes were filled with horror.

Even though it was a combined attack technique that used all their strength, they were naturally connected to the illusory image of the Underworld Lord. When the illusory image was broken, they also suffered a backlash and were severely injured.

And then,

The crimson divine sword and the green vine spear that were attacking from both sides behind Li Qingjue were already upon him.

But Li Qingjue didn't even turn around; instead, the endless black light and mist surrounding him, along with the bronze disc, suddenly expanded outwards.

boom!!

The bronze wheel unleashed its divine power, and the strands of dark light seemed to transform into vibrant, living beings, writhing wildly.

They dragged the crimson divine sword into it, devouring it frantically, causing its light to dim and dissipate rapidly.

Even the Azure Vine Spear was no exception; enveloped in endless dark light, its emerald vines withered at a visible speed, losing all their spirituality.

"Ho..."

Cui Linglong and Qing Teng Sheng Ling both let out a muffled groan.

They activated their powerful weapons, but their supernatural abilities were also broken, resulting in a backlash against themselves. They were also in a bad mood at this moment.

Da...da...

Li Qingjue's jade-like feet, encased in a pair of simple white embroidered shoes, lightly touched the ground before she slowly turned around.

Her lonely, cold gaze pierced through the black mist, landing on the horrified Cui Linglong and Qing Teng Sheng Ling, as well as the three sons of the Underworld who were weak and furious not far away.

She seemed to sense that both sides were about to engage in a fight to the death, so she refrained from making another move.

This is because the underworld and the Holy Spirit lineage are indeed profoundly powerful. If they were to recklessly activate and revitalize this powerful weapon, even she would suffer some hardship.

Furthermore, numerous powerful figures are lurking in the distance, so it's essential to conserve some strength to deal with unforeseen circumstances.

Therefore, she chose to stop there, since her gains for the day were already substantial enough, and almost all the good fortune available here had fallen into her lap.

Thoughts drifted,

She slowly raised the hand that had just pushed the bronze wheel, and with a sweeping motion, slashed it through the air towards the protective light barrier of the altar in front of her.

Sizzle...

next interest.

The restrictions placed here resonated invisibly with the roulette wheel in her hand.

Even after countless ages, the altar's protective barrier, which still stands strong enough to withstand a single blow from a quasi-emperor, was opened with a single, gentle stroke, creating a massive opening!

Hey!

Li Qingjue took a step forward and entered the restricted area.

Ignoring the remaining power of the restriction that emanated a slightly terrifying aura, she walked straight to the coffin containing the elixir of immortality.

rustling... rustling...

She reached out, her pale fingers gently tracing the surface of the coffin, which shimmered with a hazy, ethereal light. Her movements, when devoid of blood, were so elegant.

despair!

Her fingertips suddenly paused for a few breaths.

Then, as everyone saw the barrier open, under the watchful yet subtly restless gazes of those who were wary,

wow...

With a flick of her sleeve, she tucked away the coffin, along with the jade platform beneath it—a piece of material just the right size to support it.

"..."

At this moment, the entire tomb chamber was eerily quiet.

The three sons of the underworld looked extremely grim, yet dared not make another move.

The opponent's strength was truly terrifying, and they even possessed a terrifying forbidden weapon. The previous attack had already injured them, and if they attacked again, they would likely be in real danger of perishing.

If one could survive, who would risk everything and fight to the death?

It can only be said that the other party grasped their thoughts and ideas very skillfully.

shuh...

Their gaze shifted, looking towards the Holy Spirit's side, who had been locked in fierce combat with them not far away.

There, two of the six Holy Spirits had already departed, and the remaining three Holy Spirits, Cui Linglong and Qing Teng, were also terrified.
