The Supreme Sword
High in the sky, six Body Integration Realm experts clashed, Divine Abilities. The cultivators below were dazzled by the spectacle, and even Lu Yang and his four companions watched intently. Battles between the Body Integration Realm were extremely rare sights.
Only one person was not interested in observing the battle Body Integration Realm; instead, he was gritting his teeth and staring intently at the ancient cultivator couple.
"Damn ancient cultivators, you're everywhere!" At the barbecue restaurant, Vice Sect Leader Shi wished he could join the fight and beat up the ancient cultivator couple, or even kill them and turn them into corpse puppets to vent his anger.
Regardless of the outcome of this battle, the government will thoroughly investigate the area, and for safety reasons, the Qingzhou Grand Gathering will certainly be hastily concluded.
The Qingzhou Grand Event was supposed to last eight days, but it has ended after only two days.
He came to Qingzhou to conduct on-site research, to see if there was a market for barbecue restaurants here, what kinds of barbecue skewers Qingzhou people liked to eat the most, and to prepare accordingly.
It turns out that barbecue restaurants are very popular with the people of Qingzhou and have a promising future.
He also plans to take advantage of the Qingzhou event to build the reputation of his barbecue restaurant and open up the Qingzhou market.
Now it's all just empty talk.
"Ancient cultivators, huh? Don't let me run into you!"
In terms of cultivation and combat strength, he is far superior to the three sect vice-leaders, and his entry into the battle would absolutely result in a one-sided victory.
Unfortunately, due to his special status, he was not allowed to participate in the war.
If his true identity is discovered, he's doomed.
"Stealing the sky and changing the sun!" The male cultivator formed a hand seal, and dark clouds appeared, blocking out the sunlight. The sky instantly turned pitch black, so dark that one could not see their own hand in front of their face. From the darkness came a chilling sound of grinding teeth, as if a huge creature was chewing on bones.
"A hundred ghosts parade at night!" another voice shouted. It was a female cultivator who emitted endless black energy, one wisp after another, which floated in the air and gradually condensed into the shapes of various ghosts.
Ghosts of the cunning, ghosts of beauty, ghosts of knives, headless ghosts, ghosts that possess corpses...
The ghosts were silent, deathly still, like an army of the dead overthrowing the world.
Without any rules to restrain it, the deathly aura of the hundred ghosts could turn this entire mountain into a barren wasteland, with no one surviving.
Even knowing that the area below would be unaffected, the timid were still terrified by the sight and wanted to flee.
"Let me tell you, don't be afraid. With the governor here, these are just petty tricks that can't be brought to the table," the Body Integration Realm was maintaining the rules told Lu Yang and the other four.
After exchanging words, we learned that the other person's name was Xia Qun, Integrated Body Early Stage.
"Moreover, the governor has the nation's fortune, and he's more than capable of dealing with these ancient Nascent Body Integration Realm who've never seen anything like it. I wonder when I'll be able to become the governor."
"You don't need to stand on ceremony with me. Actually, I have a connection with your Five Great Immortal Sects; I can be considered your half-senior brother."
"Lord Xia, you've joined a sect of immortals?" Lan Ting asked curiously.
"No, not really. But I did take your sect's entrance exam. The questions were incredibly difficult, weren't they? I was eliminated in the first round. I almost became your senior brother. It's not an exaggeration to call me half a senior brother, is it?"
Lanting: "..."
"I originally wanted to the Ask Dao Sect Seeking Sect, but on the way there, I took the Ask Dao Sect examination. And guess what? I passed! That's how I got my official career." Xia Qun was quite talkative, which put an end to the tense atmosphere among Lu Yang and the other four.
"As expected, he is Outer Dao!" The governor held up the great seal, and a continuous stream of power poured into his body, causing his aura to rise higher and higher. The ancient cultivator couple's eyelids twitched, as the other party was already infinitely close to the Tribulation Transcendence stage.
The governor emitted a faint light, like the dawn breaking through the darkness. Suddenly, the light surged, dispelling the night and the deathly aura from the hundred ghosts. But the ghosts remained, wielding weapons and swaggering about.
Behind the male cultivator was a strangely shaped monster, as large as a mountain, wielding a bone club that could pluck the sun, moon, and stars.
"Attack!" The female cultivator gave the order, and the vast army of ghosts set off, rushing towards the governor's side.
"Leave these people to me, Twelve-Story Tower!" Master Zhang stood at the forefront, making a strange sound from his nose.
A golden pavilion appeared above the demons, radiating boundless energy. The demon army wailed in agony, and half of them perished there.
"As expected of Chonglou Temple, which frequently deals with ghostly afflictions, the twelve-story tower is still so effective against ghosts." Dean Hong joked, opening the <Saint's Words>, and each word came to life from the book, rushing towards the remaining army of a hundred ghosts.
"Confucian methods, using words as weapons, it's a pity that a rough man like me can't learn them." Sect Master Mi looked enviously at Dean Hong, who could fight with just a flick of his fingers.
"If you can't learn it, then you can't learn it!" Sect Master Mi roared, going mad and losing his mind. He leaped at the female cultivator like a monkey.
The female cultivator raised her hand and threw a punch, exchanging blows with Sect Master Mi. To her surprise, she discovered that Sect Master Mi, who Integrated Body Middle Stage of the Integration Realm, was almost as powerful as she, who Integrated Body Peak Stage.
"It seems that the power was gained at the cost of temporarily losing one's sanity." The female cultivator was no simpleton either; she discerned the method used by Sect Master Mi in their brief exchange.
"Nothing to fear!" Battles are not just about strength.
"Then what about the two of us?" Master Zhang and Dean Hong arrived after dealing with the hundred ghosts and surrounded the female cultivator.
On the other side of the battlefield, the governor summoned a Mountain-Moving Saint, who hurled a mountain at the male cultivator's ghost. The ghost met it with a bone club. The mountain was formed from the nation's destiny, and it exploded upon contact with the bone club, sending shockwaves soaring into the sky and dispersing the dark clouds overhead.
The governor summoned another saint wielding an axe. The saint swung his axe at the male cultivator, whose expression changed. He pulled the ghost over to block the attack, and black blood immediately flowed from the ghost's chest.
"Heh, to cultivate the Dharma Body and Heaven into this grotesque state, you must have some skill," the Immortal Fairy mocked, scoffing at the male cultivator's methods.
"Or is it that appearance reflects the heart, and he actually likes looking this way?"
"Who will win?" Lu Yang asked quietly.
"Naturally, it's the Great Xia side. The Great Xia's overall combat strength is a notch above the enemy's, and they also have the help of national fortune. National fortune can both defend and attack. How can ancient cultivators win?"
"Really?" Lu Yang pondered, feeling that something was amiss.
"You forced me to do this!" The male cultivator roared in fury, pulling out a golden pair of scissors from his robes. The scissors transformed into two golden dragons, soaring through the sky and emitting bursts of dragon roars, disrupting the Spiritual Qi fluctuations on the battlefield.
The appearance of the golden dragon was like throwing a pebble into a calm lake, causing ripples to spread across the entire lake.
The Spiritual Qi throughout the entire Qingzhou region fluctuated.
"Law Treasure crafted during the Tribulation Transcendence stage!" The governor had seen this type of Law Treasure in the imperial city; those at the Body Integration Realm would need to pay a high price to activate Law Treasure.
"Fortunately, my husband and I sacrificed the entire city before falling into slumber, otherwise activating the Golden Dragon Scissors would have been truly difficult."
"Go!" The male cultivator ordered two golden dragons to wrap around the ghost's arm and charged towards the governor.
The governor mobilized the power of the nation's destiny, which transformed into a long sword as long as a river, with the image of the people carved on one side and the image of mountains and rivers carved on the other.
"The Supreme Sword projection! The Governor is going to risk everything!" Xia Qun exclaimed. "After using the Supreme Sword projection once, the Governor will be unable to have sex for three months."
"Let me tell you, using the Supreme Sword phantom comes at a heavy price, but the effect is absolutely unbeatable. Unless someone reaches the Tribulation Transcendence stage, the Governor could use the Supreme Sword phantom to kill both of these ancient cultivators."
The Supreme Sword projection collided with the golden dragon demon, the dazzling light blinding everyone present.
"Who won?" No one could tell who was stronger or weaker.
As the smoke dissipated, the projection of the Supreme Sword shattered, the golden dragon vanished, the golden dragon shears broke, the ghost was cut in half at the waist, black blood flowed incessantly, the male cultivator suffered severe damage to his vital energy, and coughed up blood.
In contrast, the governor appeared radiant, as if nothing had happened.
"The governor has won!" The cultivators below cheered, and Sect Master Mi and the others also breathed a sigh of relief. If the governor had lost, it would have been difficult to stop these two ancient cultivators.
Snap--Snap--Snap--
Rhythmic clapping began, the sound thin yet drowning out all other noises. When the clapping struck three times, the entire hall fell into a chilling silence.
A figure in red appeared in the center of the battlefield, stepping into the void. When you probed him with your Divine Sense, you found that he had no spiritual power in his body, just like an ordinary person.
How could a mere mortal possibly appear here?
The figure in red smiled and slowly said, "I've long heard that the Great Xia Kingdom has extraordinary fortune. Seeing it today, it truly is remarkable. It can protect all people, enhance one's cultivation level and combat power, and even transform into a phantom of a sharp sword."
"Although I can't tell what kind of sword this is, it can sever Tribulation Transcendence level Law Treasure with a mere phantom image, so its true form must be above the Tribulation Transcendence stage."
"It seems my painstakingly planned battle wasn't in vain; it was quite fruitful."
The governor's expression was grave, as if facing a formidable enemy. "You arranged this?"
He wondered where these two ancient cultivators came from, since the secret realm had been checked and was safe, with no sleeping ancient cultivators.
Now I understand, there was someone behind those two ancient cultivators.
Below, Meng Jingzhou somewhat flusteredly, "The governor's expression is very grim; the other party is at the Tribulation Transcendence stage!"
If a cultivator at the Tribulation Transcendence stage were to unleash a massacre here, who could stop them?
"What should we do?" Meng Jingzhou asked Lu Yang telepathically.
"It's alright, they can't cause any trouble." Lu Yang said calmly.
Where does your confidence come from?
Meng Jingzhou turned his head in surprise.
But then he saw a stunningly beautiful woman with an icy expression standing next to Lu Yang.
Xia Qun stood to the side, not daring to utter a sound.
"Senior Sister?!"
Lu Yang had long suspected that someone was plotting something behind this, so to be on the safe side, he called his senior sister over in advance.
The game's arrival in reality + original dungeon infinite loop, similar to a small world with endless fun.
