Chapter 251: Chapter 183: Instantly Killing Three Demon Saints (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Back at Chen Bell Platform.

Li Qian began to study the Taishan Secret Formation he had acquired.

After a long while, he opened his eyes, his face showing a trace of anticipation.

This Taishan Secret Formation was indeed advanced, involving some array elements he had not touched before, which were of great use to him.

It was worthwhile for this trip to Jade Capital.

He knew that this Taishan Secret Formation was worth far more than two hundred Primordial Stones, but since he obtained it through legitimate channels, it didn’t count as taking advantage for nothing.

"There’s a force within the Martial Union known as Dao Sect, the source of array techniques for the Human Clan, I wonder how powerful the Array Masters inside are?"

Li Qian thought to himself.

The Taishan Formation was just one branch within the Dao Sect; although widely known due to its prevalence, the truly formidable Array Veins were not limited to the Taishan branch.

It is said that the boundary of the Human World was once constructed by the Dao Sect.

Thus, in the following period, he devoted more time and effort to study array techniques.

Months passed by.

One day, while Li Qian was studying array techniques, his fourth disciple, Xu Long, returned.

"Master."

Xu Long approached Li Qian and bowed.

Li Qian looked up and his face showed surprise, "You’ve mastered the Pure Holy Body to Great Success?"

"Yes, Master."

Xu Long nodded.

"It seems you indeed have a talent for cultivating this technique," Li Qian said with a smile.

Among his five disciples, even Yang Fan, who had the highest talent, made very slow progress in cultivating the Pure Holy Body and had not even reached Minor Success.

It wasn’t that they weren’t working hard enough, but simply that it wasn’t quite suitable for them.

On the contrary, Xu Long was more suited for cultivating the Pure Holy Body, and his progress was much faster than theirs including Yang Fan.

Of course, it was incomparable to his own speed.

However, according to Li Qian’s judgment, Xu Long might eventually cultivate the Qi Blood Holy Realm.

"Xu Long, your fellow disciple Yang has already taken in two disciples. Hurry up, isn’t our sect set to recruit new members soon? Pick one then," Li Qian suddenly remembered and mentioned.

"Okay, Master."

Xu Long quickly responded.

He too felt that it was time to take on a disciple himself.

.....

A few days later, Li Qian left the Divine Sword Sect.

He planned to make a long journey to see the outside world.

The Divine Sword Sect had an Incarnated Fox Puppet which had reached the level of a high-ranked Heavenly Demon, so unless faced with a Martial Saint, it wouldn’t be too troublesome.

Chi Country was located to the north of Chang Country, with Qi Country in between.

And between Qi Country and Chang Country was a vast plateau mountain range, making traffic between Chang and Qi Countries complicated, only accessible by sea or by taking a detour through Sichuan.

For Li Qian, who could fly, this was no longer considered an insurmountable gulf.

Flying through the plateau mountain range, peaks and ridges were commonplace, with few signs of human life.

Once across the plateau, entering Qi Country, the nation was true to its name with mountains everywhere, even more complex geographically than Chang Country.

It was truly a country amid mountains.

Crossing Qi Country and entering Chi Country presented a different scenery.

Chi Country was situated in a vast plain with fertile land and densely populated towns.

Compared to the complex terrain of Chang Country and the many mountain forests of Qi Country, most of Chi Country was located on the plains, with abundant water sources and a dense population.

No wonder the geographical records he had seen mentioned the abundance of Chi Country quite frequently.

After crossing a wide river, the landscape changed again, the world seemingly becoming barren in an instant, many towns turning into eerily deserted ghost towns.

Li Qian knew that half of Chi Country had fallen into the hands of the Demon Race more than a decade ago.

Dao Sect had to rely on a second line of defense to resist the invasion of the Demon Race.

The populations of these abandoned towns must have been relocated earlier, no wonder the area south of the river was very prosperous, yet north of the river, it was so desolate, giving a sense of decay extending over a thousand miles.

He came here also to see firsthand just how bleak the frontline situation was.

Now, Li Qian became very cautious.

The frontline battlefield was ahead, and powerful demons might be encountered at any moment.

Although he was now a Great Saint with the Qi Blood Holy Realm and capable of self-defense, if he was unlucky and met a Demon Clan Great Saint, it would be dangerous.

At night.

Li Qian concealed his aura, walking on the ground.

Flying in the sky could expose him more easily.

He now disguised his aura as that of an ordinary Heavenly Person.

This way, he wouldn’t attract too much attention from powerful demons or Dao Sect experts, ensuring safety.

Even though he was a Great Saint and had the Qi Blood Holy Realm and could invoke the power of the Chen Bell Domain from a distance, he felt it necessary to remain low-key and cautious.

There are higher realms beyond one’s own.

Even if he later achieved the Supreme Saint... there was still the higher realm of the Longevity Secret Realm.

Martial Arts Cultivation often stresses bravery and progress, but Li Qian thought it more necessary to tread cautiously as if on thin ice.

At midnight, Li Qian suddenly sensed unusual movements in the sky.

Boom!

A muffled sound, followed by a bright burst of light, and then a screech... intense air turbulence that caused the trees on the ground to rustle loudly.

Roar!

Suddenly, a howl sounded, and a gigantic pure white demon creature with wings on its back and resembling a tiger tore through the clouds, revealing its figure.

The size of this demon creature was probably a hundred yards tall, its body emitting a cold white glow.

"Is this the Devil God Battle Body?"

Li Qian was utterly astonished.

This aura was definitely that of a Demon Clan Great Saint.

He did not expect to encounter a Demon Clan Great Saint so soon.

Next, he saw a terrifying Primordial Spirit Dharma Form, with three heads and six arms, surrounded by dragons of fire, its momentum not much less than that of the Devil God Battle Body.

These two Great Saint Level powerhouses fought fiercely along the way with grand magnitude.

Fortunately, they were fighting high in the sky, so the impact on the ground was not particularly severe.

Li Qian secretly followed them on the ground.

After fighting fiercely for half an hour, it seemed that neither of the two Great Saints could gain the upper hand. Finally, the Tiger Demon Great Saint turned around and flew away in another direction.

The Primordial Spirit Dharma Form did not pursue and quickly shrank before turning into a tunneling light and disappearing into the night.

Thus ended the combat between the Great Saint Level beings.

"How powerful."

Li Qian was deeply moved.

The aura of those two Great Saints was definitely not just of an intermediate level, at least they were Intermediate Great Saints or above.

In the following period, Li Qian kept roaming the battlefield where the Dao Sect and the Demon Race clashed, witnessing various kinds of battles.

There were battles involving Great Saints, Martial Saints, and even more so, battles at the Heavenly Phenomenon Level.

Involving fights above the Martial Saint Realm, it was generally difficult to organize the Martial Arts Army, and more often, they resorted to fighting alone or in small teams.

The more powerful the beings, the more so it was.

For a Martial Saint Level being against a Heavenly Phenomenon Level, it was like a dimensional strike, with no amount of Heavenly Phenomenon Level warriors standing a chance against a single Martial Saint.

Because under the cover of the Martial Saint’s Holy Domain, it could suppress the Heavenly Phenomenon Martial Intent and cut off communication with the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi.

Hence, Heavenly Phenomenon Level Celestials could only rely on their own cultivation to fight.

And since Martial Saints themselves had much higher cultivation and could also borrow the power of Heaven and Earth, the gap was immensely vast.

Heavenly Phenomenon against Heavenly Person also had a definitive advantage.

It was precisely because of this that the battlefield between the Demon Race and Dao Sect was extremely vast, as only such a large scale could accommodate such high-level fights.

It was indeed a fierce confrontation between Dao Sect and the Demon Race.

He witnessed quite a few casualties.

That night,

Li Qian was roaming an area frequently visited by demonic creatures when suddenly there came intense sounds of combat, with resounding booms and piercing shrieks.

He quickly flew towards the source, and just as he was about to approach, a pitiful roar suddenly bellowed, "So hateful, I can’t kill any more demons..."

Immediately after, everything returned to calm.

With a sweep of his Spiritual Sense, Li Qian saw three powerful beasts tearing apart a human corpse and then feeding on it...

"That was a Dao Sect Martial Saint, and those three beasts are Demon Saints..."

Seeing this scene, Li Qian’s eyes flickered coldly.

Clearly, that Martial Saint must have been isolated, hence he was besieged and killed by three Demon Saints.

"What a pity, I was a step too late."

Li Qian sighed inwardly, lamenting that he couldn’t save the Dao Sect Martial Saint.

Watching the three Demon Saints devouring their own kind, how could Li Qian restrain himself?

His figure shifted, and like a ghost, he charged forward, releasing his Qi Blood Holy Realm without hesitation.

Boom!

Rolling golden flames enveloped the three powerful Demon Saints.

In an instant, the three Demon Saints only felt their bodies invaded by a terrifying force, unable to maintain their demon forms.

"Not good, it’s the Qi Blood Holy Realm..."

The three Demon Saints panicked, instantly realizing what it was and tried to scatter and escape, leaving the range of the Qi Blood Holy Realm.

Unfortunately, they were facing a Great Saint Level’s Qi Blood Holy Realm.

Qi Blood Suppression and Qi Blood Stripping instantly activated.

In the next moment, the bodies of the three demonic creatures were directly disintegrated, followed by their bodies uncontrollably caught in a terrifying torrent of Sword Qi, enveloping the three beasts.

In a blink, the bodies of the three powerful Demon Saints were shredded into countless pieces.

Utterly powerless to resist.

As for their Primordial Spirits, they were even weaker.

They only lasted for a moment before being shredded.

Finally, only three Demon Cores and three Storage Devices flew towards Li Qian, which he collected.

Looking at the ruined corpse of the Dao Sect Martial Saint, Li Qian sighed, then turned and left.

With a Martial Saint fallen, the Dao Sect would soon react, so there was no need for him to bury the remains of the Martial Saint.

About half an hour after Li Qian left, four figures descended from the sky, all Martial Saints from the Dao Sect, with the leader being a top-level Martial Saint.

Their expressions were extremely grim as they saw the mangled body of the Martial Saint.

Demonic creatures had a habit of devouring.

Thus, high-order warriors killed by the Demon Race, especially those at the Heavenly Phenomenon Level and even Martial Saints, often hardly left a complete corpse.

They began cleaning up the scene, but made a new discovery.

"There’s a strong scent of three Demon Saints at the scene..."

The top-level Martial Saint looked puzzled, "If they had left, wouldn’t the scent be this strong?"

Suddenly, a Martial Saint picked up a broken fang not far away, which was highly saturated with demon energy.

"It’s from a Demon Saint..."

Then, the other Martial Saints also gathered numerous sizable fragments from around.

As the large number of fragments piled up, several Martial Saints showed shocked expressions.

"Somebody killed the three Demon Saints..."

Those words came from the mouth of the top-level Martial Saint.

That fallen Martial Saint was at least of intermediate level, and the three Demon Saints that killed him must not have been weak.

To eradicate three Demon Saints in one go, not even giving them a chance to flee and directly shredding their bodies into pieces, the perpetrator must be at least a top-level Martial Saint.

Even possibly... a Great Saint.

Usually, if it were a strong individual from the Dao Sect, they would definitely leave some information at the scene, but there was nothing.

Not even the remains of the fallen Martial Saint were dealt with.

This means it wasn’t a strong individual from the Dao Sect.

Who could it be?
