Chapter 44 Alliance
,!
Even the evil master was punished by the sky and fled in embarrassment, and the remaining demon cultivators were naturally even more guilty.
They knew in their hearts that if it were them, a divine punishment would wipe them out!
No one would play with their own lives.
Therefore, the demonic cultivators were approaching with great force, and when they retreated, they were even more violent. Almost in the blink of an eye, they were about to disappear into the sky.
Dao Yuanzi's figure was mixed in with the retreating demon cultivators, a little confused.
He hasn't come to his senses yet!
The impact that Lu Qingshan had just shown on his power was undoubtedly much greater than that of other demonic cultivators.
He never imagined that Lu Qingshan, whom he had actively provoked and looked down on not long ago, whom he had thought was certain to die, and who was determined to take advantage of the situation to humiliate him and kill him with his own hands, would actually be able to defeat him, leaving the Evil Lord in a state of embarrassment. He escaped and became the savior of Lingye Island.
Dao Yuanzi found it difficult to accept this polar reversal, and his mind couldn't help but wander.
But at this moment, an extremely bright light suddenly shone, coming to the world with a soul-trembling pressure, making him suddenly wake up.
After waking up, Dao Yuanzi's eyes shrank suddenly, and the hair on his body stood up. An indescribable fear arose from his heart, permeating his whole body, making him feel like he had fallen into an ice cave.
Because, that light is... heavenly punishment!
No...it's extremely difficult for the evil master to deal with the thunder. If you use it to kill me, you think too highly of me, right?
This thought flashed subconsciously in Dao Yuanzi's mind.
The speed of the divine punishment was too fast for Dao Yuanzi to avoid.
Even the Evil Lord couldn't dodge the attack. Why should he, who was weak in the ninth realm, dodge?
Under the thunder light, the entire world seemed to turn dark instantly.
Dao Yuanzi's scalp was about to explode, and he let out a desperate roar. He made fists with his hands and resisted with all his strength.
Whether it was a killer weapon, a magical power, or a protective weapon, they all exploded at this moment, making his whole body filled with all kinds of auras.
But before the power of heavenly punishment, Dao Yuanzi's methods are undoubtedly a drop in the bucket and not enough.
His demise was instantaneous.
And it was truly wiped out.
As if being wiped away, Dao Yuanzi's body was completely shattered and turned into fly ash, with no residue left.
The power of heaven's punishment goes far beyond that. After annihilating Dao Yuanzi, the thunder continued to rage forward, like a wolf entering a flock of sheep, swallowing dozens of ninth-level demon cultivators before finally dissipating.
This encounter really shattered the remaining courage of the demon cultivators.
They did not dare to hesitate any longer, and immediately used what they had learned throughout their lives, using all their escape skills to escape, for fear of falling behind and being targeted by Lu Qingshan again.
Although he has disappeared, his spiritual thoughts are still paying attention to the evil master here. At this moment, the last doubt in his heart has finally been dispelled.
If not rich, who would beat a dog with a meat bun?
In the same way, if he didn't still have many Heavenly Punishments in his hands and had nothing to fear, how could Lu Qingshan take action even when they had clearly chosen to retreat?
And it’s such an extravagant act to kill a chicken with a knife!
This is a unique trick to keep the bottom of the box. If there wasn't a lot of surplus, how could it be used to crack some ordinary ninth-grade items?
Thinking like this, the Evil Lord let out a long sigh, withdrew his spiritual thoughts and other thoughts, took a deep look at Lingye Island, and finally walked away suddenly without looking back.
Heaven's Punishment cannot be released indefinitely, there must be an upper limit... Everyone knows this very well, including the Evil Lord.
But unfortunately, no one can judge how many more heavenly punishments Lu Qingshan can cast.
Lu Qingshan showed too much confidence.
How can that kind of confidence and that kind of comfortable demeanor be faked?
It must be because he knows it well.
Anyway, Xie Zun didn’t think Lu Qingshan was trying to scare him.
Even though he was unwilling to accept it in his heart, Xie Zun still had to admit... He was scared.
He didn't dare to try his best to test Lu Qingshan's bottom line.
Of course, there are also reasons why the Evil Lord feels it is not worth it after weighing the pros and cons.
With his current status, he will definitely not be a timid person. The point is, what can he gain by working so hard?
The rare treasure of Lingye Island really touches people's hearts, but for Evil Lord, it is just the icing on the cake, not indispensable.
If he could use the power of crushing to seize the enemy, he would be more than willing to do so. Even if it meant sacrificing the lives of some of his men, he would be fine with it.
But now he is asked to risk his life for something that is the icing on the cake...
The Evil Lord naturally refused no matter what.
Therefore, the decision to retreat was logical.
.......
"Is this "The Actor's Self-cultivation"?" Qin Yitian, who had just learned his details from Lu Qingshan, muttered absentmindedly.
With his young master's attitude just now, Qin Yitian would believe him even if he said that he could issue twenty more heavenly punishments.
As a result, Lu Qingshan just told her that there was only one left...
As expected of a young master!
Even the Sword Spirit Girl who knew Lu Qingshan best was frightened by Lu Qingshan, so the Evil Lord's panicked escape became more and more reasonable.
Lu Qingshan smiled slightly.
In fact, from the moment he appeared, everything he did was to pave the way for the evil master to be driven away.
At the beginning, he did not immediately use the divine punishment power, but relied on his own strength to face the evil master head-on.
This move is not only to verify its own combat power, but more importantly, it is to set the tone.
Set a tone that nothing that happens to him is surprising.
Since he can do such an exaggerated and outrageous thing as using his cultivation in the Five Tribulations Realm to defeat the Evil Lord, is it not impossible to be able to unleash many heavenly punishments?
Lu Qingshan created this impression for Evil Lord from the beginning.
Then he gradually increased the number of divine punishments.
From eliciting one Heavenly Punishment once, to eliciting two Heavenly Punishments once, to finally eliciting Five Heavenly Punishments for the last time, these are all actions to tell Xie Zun that he has enough confidence and there are many Heavenly Punishments.
If he told Xie Zun directly, Xie Zun would definitely not believe it.
But Lu Qingshan not only did not scare the evil master with words, he even obeyed his guess with words, and then attacked him with actions.
This made the Evil Lord even more unpredictable and Lu Qingshan began to feel guilty.
The final finishing touch was the Heavenly Punishment that Lu Qingshan cast again after Evil Lord chose to withdraw his troops.
...
The monks of Jingjian City who survived the disaster were filled with pain and anger, and were extremely depressed.
Zangxiu and Mingyu, who were both surviving the disaster, also felt uncomfortable, but compared to others, their emotions were more complicated.
"Jie Jian...does he approve of you?" Zang Xiu's voice was dry, and he immediately looked at Lie Que who was held in Lu Qingshan's hand.
"Yes," Lu Qingshan nodded, then thought about it and said, "Actually, it's not called the Tribulation Sword."
"Liuqiu."
"That's its real name."
"Ahem..." Hearing Lu Qingshan say this, Zangxiu seemed to be injured and coughed violently.
Mingyu rolled his eyes at his husband, and then explained: "Husband, the situation was urgent before. Qingshan wanted to try to control the robbery... Lieque to fight against the evil master. That was the only way at the moment, so I I agreed.”
She naturally knew that Zangxiu's emotions were complicated at this time - it was like the daughter she had raised for many years suddenly followed someone else. How could she not be a little emotional?
...Since Ming Yu personally agreed, Zang Xiu couldn't say anything else.
In fact, he had no intention of saying anything.
Lu Qingshan single-handedly saved Lingye Island and their collectors. With such great kindness in front of him, what does a missing piece mean?
He is not an ungrateful person.
"Liequ... so terrifying, so terrifying!" Zangxiu looked at Lieque, recalling the continuous divine power of divine punishment just now, and sighed at the power of this sword.
——He, like Xie Zun, believed that there was still a lot of power of heavenly punishment in Liqi at this time.
Lu Qingshan did not explain.
Of course, the fewer people know about the bottom line, the better.
"I wonder if there is any record of the missing items in the collector's books?" he couldn't help but ask.
Lieque is too powerful and magical to be a sword forged in the future.
Not to mention that the power of the ancient calamity is beyond the control of living beings, and Lieque's [Heavenly Punishment] magical power is even more powerful.
Its power is comparable to forty times that of a ninth-level combat monk's full-strength strike, and its use actually has no cultivation restrictions and no consumption.
Translated in professional game terms, Lieque is a weapon with no level restrictions.
What is this concept?
In his world, an extremely ancient online game based on Journey to the West, "no level restrictions" was synonymous with getting rich overnight.
The existence of this attribute is against the balance of the game.
And balance is precisely the most important aspect of a game.
Even compared to other Dao weapons, Lieque is undoubtedly a super model weapon and should not exist.
Therefore, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but become curious about the origin of Lieque.
The information given by the dark blue panel is very limited, and there is only one sentence that lists the weapons that should be used to deal with the disaster.
This message is too general and cannot answer Lu Qingshan's doubts.
Zangxiu thought for a while and said in a low voice: "Lieque is older than our collectors. When our ancestors discovered it, it had already existed for who knows how many years."
"This way..." Lu Qingshan was a little disappointed.
“In the ancient times, when the heaven and earth were first opened, catastrophes raged and all things were destroyed.
After the heaven and earth were stabilized, there was a spiritual creature that was smelted by the heavenly tribulation but remained immortal. It even absorbed the power of the heavenly tribulation, possessed supernatural powers, and manifested into Lieque. "
At this moment, a wave of old thoughts suddenly sounded in Lu Qingshan's heart, making him subconsciously startled.
Immediately, he reacted...
This is Lieque Sword Spirit communicating with him!
Famous swords have spirituality, but even Taoist weapons, not all have spirituality that can communicate with others.
From the time the contract was formed until now, Lieque has never taken the initiative to convey any thoughts to him.
Therefore, Lu Qingshan subconsciously regarded Lieque as a Taoist sword whose spirituality could not support communication.
Unexpectedly, Lie Que suddenly made a sound at this moment, startling the sword master himself.
Being able to communicate but never communicating... is quite aloof.
Lu Qingshan complained subconsciously.
Lieque was silent.
Although he didn't speak, as the sword master of Lieque, Lu Qingshan understood its meaning - it's not that I'm cold, it's that you didn't talk to me.
Yes, he is still a passive sword spirit.
…
In fact, I really can't blame it for being aloof.
Lieque, as a weapon that existed at the beginning of the birth of heaven and earth, has gone through a long time, but has never communicated with others.
Communication is something it has never experienced before.
An educated human being will forget to pick up a pen and forget to write after not writing for a long time.
It is not surprising that a sword spirit who has never communicated with living beings has no ability to communicate for the time being, although it is spiritual.
Since it formed a contract with Lu Qingshan and became Lu Qingshan's sixth natal sword, it has been learning to speak.
The object of study is naturally Lu Qingshan, the sword master.
Then, as the only being who knew the true identity of Lu Qingshan, it witnessed the entire process of Lu Qingshan frightening away the Evil Lord.
So......Are all human beings so confident?......
Lieque said that although he could not understand it, he was greatly shocked.
.......
In the ancient times... Lu Qingshan was also shocked.
That was the most ancient era, even before the underworld had even taken shape.
Lieque is actually older and more ancient than Wangchuan, which is the artifact of the underworld.
As the saying goes, having an elder in the family is like having a treasure.
But this is more than just an old man, he is simply an ancestor.
Lu Qingshan took a long breath and sighed in his heart.
A certain ancient emperor also secretly smacked his tongue and couldn't help but interject, "Then should I call you grandpa?"
Before he finished speaking, Gu Yiyi suddenly thought of something and shouted loudly: "Wait, although you are older than me, you still have to abide by the rules. First come, first served, you are the sixth!"
Liequ, who didn't care about this ranking and didn't want to fight for it: "..."
.......
boom!
A ray of cyan light shot out from a distance and landed next to the three of them.
Hidden small sword.
The excitement and joy in her heart at this moment was beyond words.
"Lu Qingshan, I knew you could do it!" Zang Xiaojian immediately said excitedly to Lu Qingshan.
The injury was serious, Zangxiu was supported by Ming Yu: "..."
Girl, can’t you see such a big father standing there...
"Dad, are you okay? Is the injury serious?" Zang Xiaojian realized the next moment and quickly stepped forward to support Zang Xiu's other arm and asked eagerly.
Zangxiu shook his head feebly, "It didn't damage the roots. He should be fully recovered after resting for more than ten years."
"That's good." Zang Xiaojian suddenly felt relieved.
Her parents are safe, which is the greatest good news for her.
only......
She looked around, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Jingjian City had been completely reduced to ruins as Dayue was split into two.
The entire Lingye Island was in a mess due to the massacre of thousands of ninth-grade demon cultivators, and all life was in ruins.
The Jingjian City monks who suffered heavy casualties were surrounding them, all of them with red eyes full of bloodshot eyes.
Lu Qingshan took all this into consideration, pondered for a moment, and then slowly spoke to Zang Xiu:
"Senior Zang, Lieque has been adopted as my natal sword by me, and you no longer need to protect him."
"In addition, after this incident, Lingye Island and the demons have formed a blood feud, and they have a common enemy with our human race. And although the evil master is temporarily forced to retreat by Lie Que, he is very likely to come back someday... ....”
Zangxiu responded with silence.
He understood what Lu Qingshan meant by what he said.
But this is an ironclad fact.
With the demon's character, Zangxiu didn't think that the Evil Lord would expose them to Lingye Island.
This time God Lieque threatened the Evil Lord, but what about next time?
Not to mention that it is impossible for Lu Qingshan to guard Lingye Island all the time, and the punishment from heaven is obviously not endless.
"On behalf of the human race, I invite the seniors to move the island to the sky, fight against the demons with our human race, and one day finally avenge today's bloody sea!"
Lu Qingshan clasped his fists and said loudly.
