As he left, someone behind Daoist Feng Xu said, “Can this guy do it?”
Daoist Feng Xu shook his head and sighed. “We won’t know until we try. After cultivating for hundreds of years, we don’t want to really die.”
The others had complicated expressions.
“Fengxu, are you really going to hand Lu Qingping over to him?”
An old man in a purple Daoist robe gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, “It was this guy who gathered all the cultivators and messed up our plan.”
Daoist Feng Xu didn’t say anything. His body moved and turned into a breeze that dissipated.
When Huang Six returned to the wasteland, Gao Xiaoxuan, Manager He, and the others surrounded him.
Huang Six took out the letter and told Feng Xu what he had said.
Shopkeeper He frowned and said, “Sixth Brother, I’m afraid these people’s words can’t be trusted.”
This matter concerned the lives of countless people. How could this letter settle the scores?
Huang Six nodded and took out a small cloth bag.
“Everyone, protect me. These are the medicinal pills refined by Brother Han.”
He reached into the cloth bag and took out small jade bottles.
“I don’t have the pills you want, but these pills are extraordinary. Consider it a token of my appreciation.”
After handing the jade bottle to Shopkeeper He, Huang Six cupped his hands and said, “I’m going to Cloud Nest Mountain to see Tang Chi. You don’t have to come again.”
Tang Chi was the leader of the reinforcements from the Nine Mystic Sword Sect. Huang Six was the Sword Caretaker of the Nine Mystic Sword Sect.
Huang Six went to see Tang Chi. As outsiders, they really did not need to follow him.
Manager He and the others looked at each other and nodded.
He had thought that it would not be a difficult mission, but he did not expect it to involve such a situation.
This place was not far from the battle at Fengshou Mountain, and they did not want to go any further.
Huang Six led Gao Xiaoxuan forward step by step. Manager He and the others stood where they were.
“Sigh, this Huang Six’s temperament is really not bad. Unfortunately, this cultivation world can’t accommodate such a person…” Boss He looked at Huang Six’s back and sighed softly.
Another old man shook his head and said softly, “The cultivation world has always sought to cut off relationships. How can there be a result if he insists on looking for that ethereal love?”
If Huang Six had given up on saving Lu Qingping today, he would not have been involved at all.
In fact, gathering an army would be a great contribution.
“Everyone has their own desires. Perhaps we’re shallow.” A black-robed middle-aged man shook his head and clenched the jade bottle in his palm.
“This supreme-grade Void Meridian Pill is worth hundreds of thousands of spiritual rocks.
“There’s such a person standing behind Huang Six on the Nine Mystic Mountain.”
Han Muye.
With this alchemy technique, it was easy to stir up trouble in the Western Frontier.
If not for Han Muye’s support behind Huang Six, Shopkeeper He and the other Earth Realm experts would not have come.
“Let’s go. I hope Huang Six gets what he wants.” As Shopkeeper He spoke, he cupped his hands at everyone and turned to leave.
Their alliance was disbanded.
They cupped their hands and left.
…
Fengshou Mountain, where the various sects of the Western Frontier were stationed.
The spiritual light and blood qi turned into clouds that soared into the sky, blocking the sky.
Countless cultivators charged forward. Sword lights tore through the fog and spells shattered the dust.
There were too many experts in the Southern Wasteland.
Those demons were strong and had profound cultivation.
Every impact took the lives of many Western Frontier cultivators.
These young disciples of the various sects had lost their lives on this mountain.
“Boom—”
Dozens of demon experts joined forces and collapsed half of the cliff.
The disciples stationed on the cliff were either dead or injured.
Those who were lucky enough to survive looked at the demons who were running over with fear.
Sometimes, facing the demons, it was better to die than to live.
“Haha, there are live ones.”
“Don’t snatch it. Let’s see if it still works.”
“I haven’t enjoyed food for two days.”
The demons roared and rushed up the cliff.
“Clang—”
The sword hummed. Green light flashed.
The expressions of the few demons charging forward changed, and the thick blood qi on their bodies turned into a barrier.
“It’s the girl with the sword!”
“Be careful. That girl is already crazy about killing people.”
Not only these tiger demons, but the other demons also watched cautiously as a sword light that was 100 feet long flew over.
“Slash—”
The sword light pierced through the blood-colored light curtain and swept past the armpit of a nine-foot-tall tiger demon, bringing out a spray of blood before turning around.
Li Xixi, who was holding a green wine gourd in one hand and a black sheathed sword in the other, stood on the cliff in front of her.
The Killing God of the Nine Mystic Sword Sect’s younger generation, Li Xixi.
During the battle on Fengshou Mountain, they rarely fought.
Every time an Earth Realm Core Formation cultivator fought, the mountains would collapse and the ground would crack. The others would keep their distance.
Below the Core Formation realm, they fought the most.
Among the experts below the Core Formation realm of the human race, Luo Xiaoyu was sealed in ice, Sun Jinshi was invincible, and Chen Er was invincible. Every one of them was famous on Fengshou Mountain.
However, what terrified the demons the most was the Nine Mystic Sword Sect’s sword, Li Xixi.
This female sword cultivator was simply a natural killer. With a black sword in her hand, she would kill people and demons without fear.
Those with higher cultivation levels than her were not as good at swordsmanship as her.
Those who were stronger than her were not as good at swordsmanship.
Those who were faster than her were not as good at swordsmanship.
…
On Fengshou Mountain, the cultivators of the various sects in the Western Border and the demons in the Southern Wasteland finally saw what a sword genius was.
There could only be one battle with Li Xixi.
He would win the second round if he didn’t die.
Even if he could suppress Li Xixi in the previous round, she would display a completely different level of swordsmanship in the second round and avoid all the mistakes in the previous round.
“Panic—”
He poured wine into his mouth with one hand and raised his sword with the other.
Li Xixi did not even look at him.
No one below the Earth Realm could block her sword.
The sword light turned into a stream of light that wrapped around the demons and kept killing them.
At this moment, the remaining human cultivators around the cliff gathered and rebuilt the defense line.
“Boom—”
When the sword light exploded, blood and qi scattered, and demonic qi filled the air.
Those demon experts below the Earth Realm were killed by Li Xixi.
“Dare you—” A roar came from afar.
Li Xixi turned around and left without looking back.
In the sky, several streams of light collided.
This was the attack of the Nine Mystic Sword Sect’s Grand Elder, Lu Hao, who was half a step into the Heaven Realm. He blocked the demon expert’s attack on Li Xixi.
If not for the protection of the experts, the junior disciples of the various sects would not dare to attack with their full strength.
After returning to the mountain peak at the back, Lu Ten and the other young experts of the Nine Mystic Sword Sect were all there. Some were sitting diagonally, some were lying down, and some were meditating.
Everyone took advantage of this rare time to recover their spiritual energy and stamina.
Even elites like them could not withstand the continuous battle.
“Third Sister.”
The person who spoke was wearing a green robe and had a refined face.
He was Song Seven.
Beside him was a young man who looked extremely similar to him.
Song Seven and Song Nine, twin brothers.
“All of you, be careful. The attacks in the Southern Wasteland are getting more and more intense.” Li Xixi nodded and sat down. She closed her eyes and regulated her breathing.
“I wonder what Tang Second is doing. He said that he would deal with those rebellious sects in three days.” Lu Ten’s expression was grave, and there was a hint of fatigue in his pale face.
“In the past three days, the demons on Fengshou Mountain have been attacking crazily. How can we defend?”
He complained, and the others looked unhappy.
In order to save those who rebelled, the demons of the Southern Wasteland attacked with all their might.
The balance on the Fengshou Mountain’s side was already very fragile. With the full strength of the Southern Wasteland, the Western Frontier’s battle line was in danger.
This crisis was caused by the rebel sects under the Nine Mystic Sword Sect. The various sects in the Fengshou Shanxi region already had a lot of complaints about the Nine Mystic Sword Sect.
The Supreme Elder of the Nine Mystic Sword Sect, Lu Hao, resisted the pressure and bought time for Tang Chi.
Tang Chi also made a military pledge, saying that she would settle those rebellious sects in three days.
Three days passed, and another three days were almost up.
Tang Chi blocked those rebel sects and did not advance or retreat.
In fact, it would be best if Tang Chi had the ability to directly take down these rebellious sects.
If they could not take them down, there was no harm in letting them leave the Western Frontier.
But dragging it out like this was the hardest.
“I’m afraid Tang Chi’s thoughts won’t be as we think,” Song Nine, who was sitting cross-legged beside Song Seven, said in a low voice.
This made Lu Shi clench his fists and punch the limestone in front of him.
“His reputation is even more valuable than the names of countless disciples on Fengshou Mountain?”
Everyone was silent.
“Boom—”
In the sky, the sword light collided with the black demonic beast claw, causing the entire Fengshou Mountain to tremble.
The sword light exploded, and sword qi scattered, tearing open the surrounding clouds.
Behind the beast claw that collided with the sword light, there was a roar and pain.
“The number one sword cultivator in the Western Frontier, Master Tu Sunshi. Senior Tu’s sword technique is really powerful…” Li San’s eyes lit up.
Li San opened her eyes and looked at the lingering sword light. She nodded gently.
If not for this number one sword cultivator of the Western Frontier supporting the battle, Fengshou Mountain would have long been breached by the Southern Wasteland.
The sky was still shaking. Lu Ten and the others no longer paid attention to it and focused on cultivating.
“Hum—”
Above Lu Shi’s head, a green pill turned into clouds.
The medicinal power of this supreme-grade pill was finally exhausted and completely turned into nothingness.
“If I had known earlier, I would have borrowed a few more top-grade pills from Nineteen,” Lu Eleven muttered as he tried her best to absorb the last bit of medicinal power in the pills.
“By the way, Third Sister, if I die here, remember to help me pay back the debt to nineteen.”
Lu Ten raised his hand and threw a small bag in front of Li Three.
Li Three looked at him and put the small bag in her arms.
Lu Ten stood up and stretched. He laughed and said, “Let’s go. Let’s fight again.”
Song Nine and the others also stood up.
On the distant mountain peak, demonic qi was already spreading. A defense line had been broken.
…
When Huang Six led Gao Xiaoxuan to Cloud Nest Ridge, the sun was already setting.
The sycamore leaves on the mountain looked golden and dazzling under the setting sun.
Standing on a parasol tree, Tang Chi was covered in golden light as if an immortal god had descended.
“Huang Six, Sixth Brother.”
Tang Chi looked down at Huang Six, who had walked to the tree. He had a superior smile on his face.
“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”
He raised his hand and a golden step landed in front of Huang Six.
“You’re a mortal now. I’ll give you a ladder. Climb up.”
A flight of steps led up to the heavens.
Huang Six stood in front of the golden steps, his expression changing.
