Soul-Severing Spirit-Scattering Bell!

"Unorthodox and unorthodox methods".

"Kill them first, then talk about it."

A thought fell.

Luo Gu's body surged with Law Power, and his hands formed mysterious hand seals, causing strange fluctuations to spread in all directions.

"Not good!"

Ferdinand felt a chill run through his body in an instant. As Undead Creature, he was constantly in the midst of death. Yet at this moment, he felt an incredibly intense death enveloping his head and his entire body.

Or rather...

It wasn't death, it was destruction.

"Yu!"

Ferdinand was filled with great fear, and his power surged. He waved his scepter continuously, and endless power of heaven and earth descended, forming layers of barriers around him.

Click.

Using immense power, Ferdinand's attempt to refine the seemingly Law Artifact Jade Unmelting Bone withstand the strain and instantly turned to ashes.

This time.

The ghostly flames in Ferdinand's eyes dimmed by a third.

"In vain!"

Upon seeing this, Luo Gu burst into loud laughter.

The next moment.

A faint light shot out from between Luo Gu's hands, heading straight for Ferdinand. Upon impact, it instantly reduced Ferdinand to ashes.

But at this moment.

In the distance, a divine light also appeared, sweeping across the void and colliding with the ghostly light in an instant.

Boom!

Boom boom boom!

The two divine lights collided, producing a deafening sound that shook the heavens and earth. Hills in all directions exploded, and the earth collapsed. Amidst the spray of divine light, a distant mountain, hundreds of feet high, was snapped in two.

Rumble!

The collapse of the mountain was even more spectacular.

A Daoist priest dressed in a Yin-Yang robe appeared amidst the roaring sounds, the darkness, and the smoke and dust.

His expression remained unchanged, as if he were an immortal.

Ferdinand was overjoyed and immediately stepped forward, bowing deeply and saying, "Ferdinand greets the Master, thank you for saving my life!"

Despite being a skeleton, his gratitude for surviving such a Yu Sheng was palpable.

Just now, in the Life and Death situation, if Lu Qingfeng hadn't intervened, he would have been seriously injured, if not killed.

"Step back to the side."

Lu Qingfeng waved his hand, signaling Ferdinand to step back.

"Master, be careful! This person's ghostly light can cause souls to be lost," Ferdinand warned, then retreated. Being completely restrained, staying there now would be useless and would only hinder Lu Qingfeng.

"Lost in spirits?"

Lu Qingfeng looked at the Daoist priest dressed in a moon-white robe.

Luo Gu, with his hands behind his back, was also looking at Lu Qingfeng, his eyes flashing with a thoughtful light. He couldn't help but ask, "This must be Fellow Guangyuan of Abyss-Suppressing Mountain. May I ask if what you just used was the innate Divine Ability of the Black-Veined Golden-Spot Butterfly Tribe — the Great Sun Nirvana Divine Light?"

The Black-Veined Golden-Spot Butterfly is, after all, a divine beast, and it has quite a reputation in the Primordial World.

Lu Qingfeng had used this technique in the Evergreen Realm and was recognized by Reincarnated True Immortal. This Luo Gu was clearly exceptionally knowledgeable; Lu Qingfeng had just used the 'Great Sun Nirvana Divine Light' to save Ferdinand and was immediately recognized by Luo Gu.

However, the 'Great Sun Nirvana Divine Light' was merely an ordinary Divine Ability in the hands of the Black-Veined Golden-Spot Butterfly Tribe, while Lu Qingfeng had enhanced it to the level of Great Divine Ability. Its power was much stronger, and it was quite different from the original, so Luo Gu was not sure.

"No."

Lu Qingfeng shook his head.

"No?"

Luo Gu was taken aback, suppressing his doubts, and said, "Then I wonder what this Divine Ability is all about. In the Primordial World, apart from the Black-Veined Golden-Spot Butterfly Tribe, I really don't know of any other lineage that possesses this Divine Ability. The Purple Billow Water Palace lineage seems to be even more famous for its water magic."

This person wields such Divine Ability, and their skill is even comparable to his. If he were True Immortal from the Purple Billow Water Palace, he shouldn't be unknown.

"Let's postpone this for now."

Lu Qingfeng was unwilling to talk to Luo Gu any further and said loudly, "Fellow Daoist, you have come uninvited, intending to kill my Guangyuan Immortal Sect's Protector Venerable and seize the Abyssal Authority. Please give us an explanation for this matter."

The Lord of the Abyss wields Abyssal Authority, making him a top-tier powerhouse across all thirty-six layers of the Material World, virtually invincible among mortals. This is because he is empowered by the will of the Abyss and enjoys boundless fortune.

Lu Qingfeng preached in the Heaven's Punishment Abyss and had long regarded the Lord of the Abyss as his friend.

This Daoist priest is True Immortal reincarnated; how could he not know this?

Instead of bypassing Abyss-Suppressing Mountain, he went straight to the Dark Deadlands, intending to seize the Abyssal Authority by surprise. He was truly not a human being.

Luo Gu listened without showing any emotion, only shaking his head, "It seems we still have to fight."

Lu Qingfeng looked over.

Luo Gu then formed hand Hand Seals, and a dark light, far more powerful than before, rose up and smashed straight towards Lu Qingfeng's face without any preparation.

They actually made the first move.

"That's fine too."

Lu Qingfeng took half a step back, and the moonlight fell from the sky, the countless fluorescent lights returning to him, instantly enveloping his entire body in a robe. The eerie light fell upon it, causing only a ripple before vanishing without a trace.

"The Taiyin Calamity-Crossing Robe!"

"Fellow Daoist, you have deceived me!"

Luo Gu's face was filled with anger. He reached into the void and a long sword appeared in his hand. His Law Power was vast, and his anger was surging. He swung the sword at Lu Qingfeng.

"Great Possession Ring."

Lu Qingfeng, unhurried, took a ring resembling a moon halo from his right wrist and tossed it gently.

The Great Possession Ring immediately began to spin incessantly, growing larger and larger until it grew hundreds of feet in the blink of an eye.

It hurtled towards Luo Gu.

Clang!

Luo Gu, wielding his sword, casually slashed, sending Great Possession Ring flying to the side.

Boom boom boom!

The mountain peak, now only half-formed in the distance, was immediately struck by the Great Possession Ring, shattering into dust with a deafening roar and leveling the ground.

Luo Gu kept going.

Holding a long sword, he approached and was already in front of Lu Qingfeng.

"I'd like to see what kind of background you have, this evasive fellow!" Luo Gu shouted, his longsword radiating countless rays of light. Light and agile yet powerful and heavy, it was truly strange, enveloping Lu Qingfeng.

"Quite the boast."

"Let's see if you have the ability."

Lu Qingfeng snorted coldly, reached out and made a gesture, and the Great Possession Ring that had shattered the mountain rapidly shrank and landed in his hand.

They immediately engaged in battle with Luo Gu.

Clang clang clang!

Boom boom boom!

The sounds of fierce fighting echoed for thousands of miles!

"This--"

"What incredible strength!"

The moment they clashed, Luo Gu inwardly cried out in despair, secretly cursing his fate.

He was born into the Year-Watch Sovereign, God of Tai Sui, and was Registered Disciple Yin Jiao. He was not only Technique Method, but also skilled in close combat. Whether in terms of strength, physical strength, or fighting techniques, he was among the best even among True Immortal.

He could fight Lu Qingfeng.

But he felt an indescribable force strike him, making his hands go numb and almost causing him to lose his grip on the longsword.

This was no small matter.

He cultivated the Jade Yuqing Immortal Method. Although he had not received the True Disciple, it was still superior to many Orthodox Grade methods. He had advanced to the Golden Core stage and possessed abundant magical Law Power. However, when facing Lu Qingfeng, he felt that his physical body and Law Power were completely crushed. He could only barely hold on by relying on his incredibly rich combat skills.

But it was only a support, and it was completely at a disadvantage.

It kept retreating, its true form seemingly about to fall apart.

"Is this the true strength of the sect leader?"

On the side.

As Ferdinand tended to his injuries, he watched in as Lu Qingfeng completely overwhelmed Luo Gu, leaving him utterly helpless, and he couldn't help but feel alarmed. Although he had long known that Lu Qingfeng was extremely strong, his strength to this extent was still beyond his expectations.

The two engaged in a fierce battle.

Luo Gu, brimming with confidence, launched the first attack, only to be relentlessly pushed back by Lu Qingfeng wielding his Great Possession Ring circular weapon. One was skilled in martial arts, the other chaotic and disorganized.

On the contrary, the former was struggling to cope, and their moves gradually became chaotic.

"Happy!"

"Happy!"

Lu Qingfeng hadn't fought so freely in a long time. This kind of close combat was completely different from magical duels. The direct collision of Law Power, strength, and techniques could result in countless changes in an instant.

Especially when fighting Reincarnated True Immortal like Luo Gu, Lu Qingfeng, despite having the upper hand, still had to be extremely vigilant. Otherwise, if he wasn't careful, Luo Gu's rich combat experience would give him an opportunity to turn the tide.

Such a great battle.

Lu Qingfeng enjoyed the battle immensely, constantly exchanging blows and benefiting greatly from the experience.

Luo Gu, however, was the exact opposite.

With his power suppressed, he was unable to use any of his skills, which was extremely frustrating.

"This cannot continue."

Seeing Ferdinand rapidly recovering from his injuries, Luo Gu was startled awake.

He immediately held his longsword Great Possession Ring in front of him to withstand the attack from Da Youquan, using the momentum to retreat rapidly. Holding the sword in one hand and Hand Seals with the other, his Law Power surged in the air, and a small bell, as large as a copper bell, condensed.

Luo Gu reached out and grabbed the small bell in his hand.

Then, with a gentle shake.

Clang!

The bell tolled, and silence descended upon all directions. Within a radius of three thousand miles centered on Luo Gu, the entire area was reduced to deathly stillness in an instant.

It wasn't death, it was destruction.

Within a three-thousand-mile radius, all Undead Creature —skeletons, liches, bone dragons—were annihilated. Their souls scattered, leaving only emptiness and death.

"Snort!"

Ferdinand grunted, but fortunately, he reacted quickly and set up a defense around himself. With the help of the power of heaven and earth, and because it was only a minor ripple, he could barely hold on.

"Sect Leader."

He strained to look up at Lu Qingfeng.

The mere impact turned three thousand miles of land into barren wasteland, forcing him to defend with all his might. It's unimaginable what kind of impact Lu Qingfeng, who was directly in the blast, was enduring.

"The Taiyin Calamity-Crossing Robe!"

Luo Gu's Law Power surged as he held a sword in one hand and shook a copper bell in the other. Waves of mysterious light spread out and landed on Lu Qingfeng. He was shrouded in a Taiyin Calamity-Crossing Robe, which completely blocked out the mysterious light.

The power of his Great Divine Ability was fully displayed.

"Hmph!"

"Let's see how long you can hold out!"

Despite the continuous depletion of Luo Gu's Law Power, he remained completely calm on the surface.

In the mortal realm, how can Core Formation Cultivator withstand the power of Immortal Artifact? Even a heavily sealed Immortal Artifact is beyond the capabilities of a mere mortal cultivator.

As expected.

The Taiyin Calamity-Crossing Robe fluctuated more and more, gradually swaying as if it were about to break.

"This treasure—"

Lu Qingfeng's gaze fell on the bronze bell in Luo Gu's hand, his eyes suddenly brightening. This treasure, capable of destroying the heavens and the earth with a single strike, also faintly revealed a trace of Pure Yang energy within it.

It is clearly not an ordinary Earthly Baleful Artifact.

"Immortal Artifact!"

Upon thinking of this, Lu Qingfeng's heart burned with passion.

"Demon God, emerge!"

In an instant, six demon gods emerged from his body, arranging themselves in six directions to envelop Luo Gu.

"The Dutian Demon God?!"

Upon seeing this, Luo Gu's pupils contracted immediately. "Indeed, it is the Heavenly Dao Lineage!"

Six demon gods were arranged in front—

Zhurong!

Jumang!

Gonggong!

Qiangliang!

Rushou!

Houtu!

Having cultivated to the Spell Gathering Realm, Lu Qingfeng's true body is powerful, and his Law Power is concentrated. Given enough time, he could even condense twelve demon gods in one go. Unfortunately, his cultivation period is short, and he has not yet condensed six demon gods.

Even so.

The moment the six demon gods appeared, the momentum changed dramatically.

Flames, emerald green, waves, thunder, Sword Qi, and weight!

They all rushed towards Luo Gu.

"How dare you, you little demon god, act so arrogantly?!"

"Take this strike of my Soul-Severing Spirit-Scattering Bell!"

Feeling immense pressure, Luo Gu suddenly roared, his Law Power surging—

Ding ding ding!

The copper bell in his hand shook continuously, making a tinkling sound, with Xuanyin resonating and a faint light spreading.

I recommend a book by my good friend, "The City's Young Immortal Venerable," a city-themed cultivation novel. You can read it Qidian or Chuangshi; it's a long and satisfying read. If you're interested, check it out.

It's said there will be a massive update the Postnatal, starting at 50,000 words. I can't mess with that...
