When Li Weiyi saw Qi Jin Zhuang Yue's face, a chill appeared in his eyes.

When he saw the sword in Qi Jin's hand, the chill instantly transformed into killing intent.

That's Jiang Ning's Startled Feather Sword!

Tang Wanqiu whispered a warning, "Be careful, she is the top expert under Phoenix-born Unicorn-young, and her combat strength is not much less than Hua Yuzi's."

"Whoosh!"

Li Weiyi used footwork to propel himself forward like a wisp of green smoke, with a four-zhang-tall divine image of his Battle Intent rising behind him.

Tang Wanqiu narrowed her eyes. "You've broken through again!"

"But he's only just reached the Sixth Sea, and there's a fundamental difference between fourth-order Qi and Qi Jin's sixth-order Qi." A martial artist from the Xue Jian Tang Ting still had doubts about Li Weiyi's strength.

"Yin Suwen is seriously injured. As long as he can hold Qi Jin back, we will have a chance to escape."

Wanyan Xiaose commanded the insect swarm to attack the remaining Yin Mountain Demon Race warriors guarding the city gate.

The other five martial artists from Xue Jian Tang Ting followed closely behind.

Tang Wanqiu, unlike the other six, focused her gaze on the heavily wounded Yin Suwen and charged forward with her sword. She had no face to face the elders and relatives of the martial artists who had died in battle if she didn't kill this traitor.

"Boom!"

"Swish!"

The book-shaped, fourth-grade Hundred Character Scripture Magic Tool pressed down on Li Weiyi, overturning all the stone slabs on the long street and threatening the Defensive Formation of the buildings on both sides of the street.

Patrolling Immortal Envoy dressed in a white Daoist robe stood on the city wall and with two strokes of his brush, fixed the protective array.

Li Weiyi moved with lightning speed, dodging and weaving away. No matter how powerful the fourth-grade Hundred Character Scripture Magic Tool was, it would be useless if it couldn't lock onto him.

Qi Jin kept a close eye on Li Weiyi's footwork, watching him get closer and closer.

"Whoosh!"

He leaped above Qi Jin's head, a sword rang out, and the Yellow Dragon Sword was drawn.

With a single sword strike, the Sword Qi flowed like a long river hanging upside down, cleaving through the Departed Spirit Army with overwhelming force, Sword Qi directly in front of Qi Jin.

The Sword Qi of the Yellow Dragon Sword seemed capable of dissolving everything; any spirit that touched it would instantly vanish into nothingness.

Qi Jin's aura overflowed, dispersing the incoming Sword Qi.

"Divine Moon Eternal Illumination Mirror!"

Behind her, a unique Battle Intent arose, forming a crimson divine moon, five zhang in diameter, illuminating a city area spanning dozens of miles, vying with the Bright Moon in the sky.

This light drew the attention of the older generation of powerful figures on Peach Plum Mountain, who were anxiously watching the situation in the South City, and immediately elicited exclamations of surprise.

Residents in the town below could hear Old Man shouting from the mountain, "Look to the southeast!"

"Boom!"

Li Weiyi, like a straight arrow, collided with Qi Jin.

The two swords clashed, and the magical energy transformed into powerful waves that spread outwards.

Sparks exploded like a rain of fire.

Qi Jin had overestimated Li Weiyi to the maximum extent possible, but only when they actually fought did he realize what a terrifying opponent Yin Suwen had just faced.

It wasn't that he was too useless, but rather that the enemy had become incomprehensibly strong.

How can someone with fourth-tier Qi and Battle Intent four zhang tall, whose Dao Body hasn't even been successfully cultivated, be so strong?

Qi Jin was blasted back more than ten feet by Li Weiyi's sword. The three martial artists behind him who were at the Five Seas Realm were sent flying like scarecrows, their bones broken and blood flowing from their seven orifices.

Cracks appeared on the skin of the arm on which she held the sword.

Before she could regain her footing, Li Weiyi's second, third, and fourth sword strikes came one after another, each one faster than the last.

The sword's cry sounded like Dragon Roar, and sword shadows filled the area within a ten-foot radius, leaving Qi Jin utterly defenseless, with dense cracks appearing on his human skin.

The mere touch of Sword Qi caused her extreme discomfort.

"Divine Moon Mirror!"

Qi Jin let out a sharp, cold shout, and a round ancient mirror flew out from the magical mist behind her, releasing a dazzling light to block Li Weiyi's sword aimed at her brow.

Li Weiyi unleashed a palm strike with his left hand from a distance, forming a golden Coiled Dragon -shaped seal that struck her heavily.

"Boom!"

Qi Jin's human skin exploded and he flew backward, leaving only his mangled face and long hair, revealing his true form Ember Spirit.

Like a person molded from charcoal ash, with blinding Mars and Yao Qi inside.

Li Weiyi drew his sword and gave chase, wanting to finish the battle quickly. Blood mist and densely packed crimson scriptures flew out from the Blood Handprint Demonic Armor. Then, he thrust out with his sword, and a hundred swords flew out at once.

The Divine Moon Eternal Illumination Mirror Battle Intent blocked Qi Jin's path.

She frantically mobilized her internal energy, converging it towards her hands and continuously pouring it into the Divine Moon Mirror.

"Whoosh!"

The Divine Moon Mirror rotated, combining with the Battle Intent that spanned five zhang in diameter, replicating Li Weiyi's sword moves on the mirror's surface, and then counterattacking.

A hundred swords came at once.

The hundred swords returned in unison.

"Swish!"

Li Weiyi felt a chill run down his spine. He recalled the blood-red scriptures and branded them onto his skin, transforming them into a scripture-inscribed demonic armor to block the countless Sword Qi that flew back.

When Qi Jin was defeated by Jiang Ning using the Ghost Flag at Soldier Ancestor Marsh, he said that he lost because of his weapon and that the Divine Moon Mirror was not on him.

Clearly, she believed that by wielding the Divine Moon Mirror, she possessed combat power comparable to that of Dao Seed Realm Martial Cultivator.

Li Weiyi sheathed his sword and, relying on the Blood Handprint Demonic Armor covering his entire body, met the attack head-on. His fists and palms lashed out, displaying overwhelming demonic power and boundless strength.

"Boom!"

After piercing through Qi Jin's Divine Moon Eternal Illumination Mirror Battle Intent with a single palm strike, six divine shadows of Battle Intent appeared behind Li Weiyi, unleashing 150% of their battle power. Their heads slammed down, and their bodies directly collided with her.

"Bang!"

Qi Jin was sent flying backward, Mars flying everywhere, his body smashing through a wall and crashing into the ruins.

Li Weiyi suddenly landed, straddling her, and unleashed a barrage of palm strikes like a violent storm.

She only managed to block the first three blows before being struck so hard that she screamed and roared incessantly. Finally, Li Weiyi punched her, breaking her neck, and the flames on her body went out.

Li Weiyi grabbed the head of the Ember Spirit, flipped to the side to dodge the book-like fourth-grade, Hundred Character Scripture Magic Tool flying from behind.

The attacks launched by the other martial artists from the Far West Ash Region were completely unable to break through the Blood Handprint Demonic Armor's defense. Only this weapon could injure him.

"Boom!"

The book smashed Qi Jin's Decapitated Corpse into ashes, leaving behind a huge crater.

Li Weiyi used his magical energy to pick up the Divine Moon Mirror, the Startled Feather Sword, and the four invitations that had fallen from Qi Jin's clothes. He then flashed and leaped across rooftops, killing several more people before finally returning to the city gate.

He looked at Xue Jian Tang Ting, who were still fighting their way out of the encirclement.

He raised his head and shouted, "Qi Jin has been killed by me. Why don't you leave your invitations and flee for your lives?"

Upon hearing this, the martial artists from the Far West Ash Region, who were still unaware of the situation, changed their expressions drastically and looked over with surprise and uncertainty.

Tang Wanqiu and Yin Suwen, who were locked in fierce combat, stopped, both with expressions of disbelief in their eyes. Only they knew just how terrifying this feat was.

"Brother Weiyi, are you a demon god descended to earth, or a celestial being cultivating in the mortal realm? She is Qi Jin!" Wanyan Xiaose's voice was sweet, beyond words, expressing the admiration in his heart at this moment.

There's no way around it; even Tang Wanqiu in her prime might not have been able to kill Qi Jin.

Tang Wanqiu is the Seventh Sea perfection.

However, Li Weiyi, despite being in the Five Seas Realm, still has a great deal of room for improvement.

The sounds of insects chirping and flapping their wings came densely from the pitch-black city wall, attracting the attention of everyone on the street below.

Shi Shishi, Bai Shu, and the seven torrents of ferocious insects summoned by the Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors finally arrived and converged here.

Shi Shishi shouted, "Brother Weiyi, shall we continue?"

"They might have invitations on them; if you get them, they're yours. You only have fifteen minutes!"

Li Weiyi landed with a leap, killed Yin Suwen, and took her invitation and three Hundred Character Scripture Magic Tool. Then he chatted with Tang Wanqiu: "What exactly happened? Yin Mountain is located in the northern border. How could it suddenly rebel? Can that demon king of Yin Mountain withstand the wrath of the entire northern border? Or can it move the eight thousand miles of Yin Mountain range?"

Shi Shishi cried out in excitement, and together with Bai Shu and Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors, led the swarm of insects to charge towards the martial arts practitioners who were fleeing in all directions in the Far West Ash Region.

The Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors were naturally there to collect money bags and boundary bags.

That represents a precious medicine and Thousand-Year Elixir.

Looking at the scene before him, and gazing at the seven endless rivers of insects, Tang Wanqiu was completely convinced. Supporting himself with his sword, he exclaimed, "Weiyi, the world is about to undergo a tremendous change! I suddenly understand that the Du'e Temple might actually be supporting the forces behind Phoenix-born Unicorn-young, provided they defeat the Qianlong Lantern Festival."

"Dragon Gate has already surrendered, and the various Demon Race have certainly surrendered as well!"

"Both Zuoqiu Hong and I made misjudgments; our perspectives weren't fully extended beyond the Hidden Qianlong Lantern Festival, and we failed to grasp the overall situation. I believe those old fellows on Peach Plum Mountain were also slow to realize the situation."

"The Heartless Golden Ape of Tianya Ridge's submission to Zuoqiu Hong is most likely a scheme by Phoenix-born Unicorn-young, coupled with pawns like Ember Spirit and Death Ember already planted among the martial artists in the Southern Territory. The Zuoqiu Courtyard and the Imperial Court will surely follow in the footsteps of Xue Jian Tang Ting."

Tang Wanqiu suddenly grabbed Li Weiyi's shoulders, her eyes filled with fervor and hope. "Weiyi, stop him! If there's anyone in Qiuzhou who can stop Phoenix-born Unicorn-young, it's probably only you! Do you understand what I just said? If Phoenix-born Unicorn-young wins, many people will die... many, many more..."

I tried my best!

Li Weiyi flew up to the city wall, whistled, and summoned Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors.

Time waits for no one; we must get to the place we need to go right away.

Shi Shishi and Bai Shu followed the insect swarm back together.

"So urgent? I haven't found a single ticket!" Shi Shishi looked at the fleeing martial artists of the Five Seas Realm and felt a growing anxiety.

"The situation is worse than I imagined! I need to get to the Bright Moon Seven Stars Pavilion first. You all lead the swarm and catch up as quickly as possible."

After saying this, Li Weiyi flew away, his gaze fixed on the towering Peach Plum Mountain in the city center. He clearly heard an Old Man shout urgently, "Hurry!"

The single word "fast" contains countless unspoken words.

Dragging their wounded bodies and looking disheveled, Tang Wanqiu and her six companions walked out of the outer city gate and were greeted by a jade carriage pulled by five Snow Dragon Flood Dragons, its magnificent presence awe-inspiring.

That was once the carriage of an Ancient Son of Heaven!

In the small world where Yu Luo resided, wind and snow raged, standing alone beyond the Bright Moon sky.

Tang Wanqiu knelt on one knee, gritting her teeth, and said, "Sister, I've lost! I've utterly defeated the Five Seas Realm martial artists of Xue Jian Tang Ting."

Inside the carriage, a young woman's voice rang out. "Xue Jian Tang Ting was only defeated at the Five Seas Realm. In that dangerous moment, you dared to swing your sword at Yin Suwen, that's passing. Get in the carriage, come back to the city with me!"

Tang Wanqiu was stunned. "Going back to the city now is very dangerous."

"Now that you've left the city, you're out of the game. If you ride with me, who would dare kill you?"

The imperial carriage slowly made its way through the city gate.

Tang Wanzhou's voice rang out calmly inside the car. "I came here to see just how much this so-called Young Son of Heaven really is."

At the beginning of the month, I'd like to ask for your monthly votes!
