Chapter 563 - 562: The Might of Qiankun

Chapter 563: Chapter 562: The Might of Qiankun

"So you have a way to cheat death. In that case, face my sword again!"

"Qiankun Six Paths Sword Technique—Slow Torture and Skin Cutting!"

Qi Xia’er’s indifferent voice reached Mu Qiuwu’s ears.

Mu Qiuwu’s face turned pale.

SWISH SWISH SWISH!!

The shriek of the sword pierced metal and shattered stone, shaking the sky and making the eardrums of many ache.

A world-shocking killing intent erupted. Streaks of sword light shot into the heavens like countless erupting volcanoes, surging into the clouds!

Beneath the Firmament, a forest of Divine Swords materialized in the air. Each blade was dozens of feet long with a chillingly sharp edge. They stood vertically, pointing skyward, their brilliant light and murderous aura surging.

They descended upon Mu Qiuwu.

BOOM!

Mu Qiuwu’s face was ashen. His Primordial Qi was severely depleted, and he had no confidence he could withstand this terrifying sword light.

RUMBLE!

In a flash of lightning, Qin Feng narrowed his eyes. Within his Divine Thought, a thunderous shadow, invisible to the naked eye, zipped past Mu Qiuwu, grabbed him, and retreated thousands of feet in an instant.

A rain of swords descended like a forest, the countless beams of light bombarding the ground like a meteor shower.

RUMBLE!

The earth shook violently.

When the dust settled, the scene made everyone gasp.

Within a radius of several hundred yards, the ground had been shaved down by several feet!

Qin Feng’s expression shifted slightly. ’What a powerful Sword Technique!’

The Qiankun Six Paths Sword Technique had six forms: Partitioning Land and Enfeoffing Borders, Borrowing a Corpse to Revive a Soul, Raking the Courtyard and Sweeping the Lair, Slow Torture and Skin Cutting, The Revolution of Qian and Kun, and Annihilation by Heaven and Earth.

It was incredibly difficult to master even a single form of such a terrifying Sword Technique.

It seemed Qi Xia’er had mastered at least five of them.

’If she has mastered the sixth form, Annihilation by Heaven and Earth, I’m afraid even I would have to be extremely cautious when facing her!’ he mused.

Qin Feng’s gaze landed on the tall girl who had rescued Mu Qiuwu. She wore a short skirt made of Battle Armor, and her figure was wickedly curvaceous.

’Someone from the Demon God Temple!’

Her terrifying speed was unforgettable.

’She must have cultivated the Speed Mystical Meaning. Among all the world’s Martial Skills, only speed is absolute! However, the aura coming from her body is related to thunder. It seems this Leopard Race woman has sublimated her Thunder Origin into a Speed Origin!’

The Thunder Origin was one of the High-level Origins.

However, the Speed Origin was a cut above.

Time is supreme, and Space is king. Below them are the High-level Origins. In truth, between the High-level Origins and King-level Origins, there is also the Sub-King Level Origin.

Origins like Speed and Temperature were considered Sub-King Level Origins.

Qi Xia’er’s beautiful eyes landed on the Leopard Maiden thousands of feet away. "So, you’re from the Thunder Spirit Leopard Race. It seems all the ghouls and goblins from the Demon God Temple have arrived. Show yourselves!"

Mu Qiuwu’s face flushed with anger. Qi Xia’er’s words were clearly looking down on him.

How could someone as young and proud as him stand being looked down on by a woman—let alone being defeated by an unparalleled beauty like Qi Xia’er?

He was about to charge out immediately.

The Leopard Maiden held him back. "Don’t be rash. Qi Xia’er is indeed very powerful, especially since she and the others spent the last few months cultivating in the Star Sect’s Star Monarch Divine Tower. You and I both know what that place is. It’s no great shame that you aren’t her match!"

The Leopard Maiden did not bother to hide her voice.

Her words reached Qin Feng, and he was inwardly shaken.

’The Star Monarch Divine Tower... that’s one of the Star Sect’s foundational treasures.’

The Star Monarch Divine Tower was a set that could be separated or combined. When combined, it became an ultimate Secret Treasure that could defend the entire sect.

Setting aside its power, its ability to aid Star Sect disciples in their Cultivation was famous among all the sects.

A trace of envy flashed through Qin Feng’s eyes.

Even he greatly coveted the Tower’s cultivation-assisting properties.

’Unfortunately, not just anyone can enter the Star Monarch Divine Tower. Not even the most core True Disciples!’

Qi Xia’er twirled her longsword. "You even know that we entered the Star Monarch Divine Tower. It seems the Demon God Temple truly has vast Divine Abilities!"

Qin Feng’s eyes shifted. ’From what Qi Xia’er is saying, it seems she wasn’t the only one who entered the Star Monarch Divine Tower to cultivate.’

A flash of frustration appeared in Qin Feng’s eyes.

’I’m a member of the Star Sect’s Inner Sect, and a Sealed Marquis Genius at that, yet I didn’t get a spot to enter the Star Monarch Divine Tower this time.’

The Leopard Maiden sneered. "Qi Xia’er, enough with the nonsense. Hand over the Sea God Relic. You alone can’t protect this Treasure!"

"Fine. Then let me see what skills the Demon God Temple’s famous Thunder Saintess possesses!"

Meanwhile, on another side of the battlefield, several experts from the Star Sect were also watching the proceedings.

Five figures stood there.

If Qin Feng were here, he would have recognized them all as acquaintances.

Qian Kai, Yue Ji, Wang Dao Yi, Ling Shuanghua, and Tan Mingfeng.

The difference now, however, was that the auras they exuded were more than ten times stronger than they had been a few months ago.

Every one of them was at the Sea of Reincarnation Realm Peak. Tan Mingfeng’s strength, in particular, was unfathomable, having already surpassed the peak of the Sea of Reincarnation Realm!

Wang Dao Yi said, "Should we go down and help Senior Sister Qi? That Leopard Maiden’s strength is extraordinary!"

Wang Dao Yi cultivated a special Divine Ability, and his Spiritual Sense was exceptionally sharp.

Yue Ji shook her head. "Not yet. There are still many orioles hiding in the shadows. Of the seven Sea God Relics, the East Sea Dragon Palace, West Sea Dragon Palace, North Sea Dragon Palace, South Sea Dragon Palace, and Endless Sea Dragon Palace each obtained one. That’s five. One is said to have fallen into the hands of a mysterious woman. This is the last Sea God Relic, and we of the Star Sect must obtain it!"

"Let Senior Sister Qi deal with the Leopard Maiden. We just need to guard against ambushes from those hiding in the dark!"

Tan Mingfeng nodded. "Opening the Sea God Hall is the primary mission of our trip. This final Sea God Relic is especially important, as it determines how much say we will have inside the Sea God Hall!"

Qian Kai’s jade-green eyes opened and closed, but he remained silent.

However, the other four did not dare to underestimate him.

Ever since the Star Martial Arts Assembly, Qian Kai’s rise could only be described as meteoric.

The talent he displayed, along with his attainments in the Poison Element, was staggering.

A few months ago, he even ventured into the Demon Battlefield alone and single-handedly killed several Martial Arts Giant Level Demon Kings.

His world-shocking display was astounding.

Especially after entering the Star Monarch Divine Tower this time.

He had already reached the forefront of the geniuses of his generation.

They even suspected that if *that* Sealed Marquis Genius were here now, he might not be Qian Kai’s match!

Seeing everyone’s gazes turn to him, Qian Kai spoke. "The people from the Demon God Hall are formidable, but they’re out in the open, so they are not the main concern. The real worries are the peerless geniuses from the Martial Arts Pride Ranking hiding in the shadows, as well as some of the experts from the Sea Realm Pride Ranking!"

The expressions of Tan Mingfeng, Yue Ji, and the others grew solemn.

Although their strength had advanced by leaps and bounds these past few months, the pressure of facing those peerless geniuses on the Pride Rankings was immense.

At that moment, on another side, Qin Feng suddenly noticed three familiar figures approaching.

Xuan Wuji, Ye Ding, and Bai Yan’Er!

The trio approached stealthily. After glancing at the situation, their eyes flickered. Without a sound, they found an ancient tree and hid themselves as well, preparing to play the oriole in the shadows.

Coincidentally, the ancient tree they hid behind was only a hundred feet or so from Qin Feng!
