The Immortal Slaying Sword Formation Was the Primordial Wilderness's Greatest Killing Formation-Confronting a Quasi-Saint! Is There Anything Wrong with Being the First Generation?

Boom!

Blood-red light crisscrossed the sky.

The four Laws of Swordsmanship—Death, Sharpness, Severance, and Entrapment—transformed into boundless slaughter and surged forth, completely suppressing and killing this Grand Unity Golden Immortal within the formation!!

At the moment before his death.

Three-Sturgeon Bird's expression was exceptionally complicated.

Resentment.

Confusion.

Astonishment.

Disbelief...

But when he saw that handsome face at the formation's exit, he finally understood everything.

So it was the Minor Golden Immortal he had exploited not long ago?

So there was Karma between them. Then his death was not unjustified.

But...

How could a mere Golden Immortal kill him?

What right did he have to kill him?

"I refuse to accept this..."

Three-Sturgeon Bird could not even finish his final cry before he was utterly reduced to ashes!!

Whoosh!

The great formation dispersed.

Four streaks of spiritual light returned to where Qingyuan stood, entering his body and vanishing.

Those four streaks of spiritual light were the Innate Two Principles Qiankun Sword, the Universe Myriad Flood Sword, and swords transformed from the Universe Wish Jade Weapon. Only by using mountains, rivers, and Earth Veins as the formation diagram, alongside other Innate Spiritual Treasures as Formation Eyes, could he kill Three-Sturgeon Bird, an Early Taiyi Golden Immortal!

Even so.

It had completely drained his mana.

He had to consume several bottles of Pills just to sustain himself.

"You offended me to this extent and still thought I would let you leave? What a joke..."

Qingyuan retrieved the Formation Flags and spiritual treasures he had placed within the Earth Veins, mountains, rivers, and Spiritual Veins. His pale face was rapidly regaining its color.

To be honest.

Although Three-Sturgeon Bird was merely an Early Taiyi Golden Immortal.

And not an Innate God-Demon.

He was still an extraordinary Primordial Exotic Species, as well as a commander capable of leading troops in Di Jun's Heavenly Court.

Setting everything else aside.

The fact that he had escaped alive from the hands of the Great Witch Xiang Liu proved that he possessed considerable skill.

Had Great Peng Bird not drawn him into the formation's ambush by going all out, Qingyuan might have been able to defeat and severely injure Three-Sturgeon Bird today, but he might not have been able to kill him!

"Master, what formation was that? It could even kill a Taiyi Golden Immortal?"

Great Peng Bird, who had been watching from afar, transformed into a streak of golden light and flew over.

His face was filled with shock.

He had kept calling Three-Sturgeon Bird a bastard.

But that bastard truly was powerful. His mana was vast and his body formidable; he was by no means an ordinary Early Taiyi Golden Immortal. Even if ten more Great Peng Birds came, they might not be able to defeat him.

Yet his master had killed Three-Sturgeon Bird alone in merely a few hundred breaths.

This ability was truly incredible!!

"This formation is called the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation. Have you heard of it?"

Qingyuan circulated the Mystic Art and the Primordial Art.

Then he sat cross-legged in the void and breathed in an unfathomably profound manner.

A moment later, he had fully recovered.

"The Immortal Slaying Sword Formation? What an arrogant name, but I've never heard of it."

Great Peng Bird shook his head. Qingyuan also shook his head. "It seems the Phoenix Clan truly taught you nothing. You have suffered over these years. Stay by my side from now on and cultivate properly. Whatever you wish to learn, as long as I know it, I will teach you!"

"In the Future, do not suffer anymore. Follow your master and enjoy life properly."

Upon hearing those words.

Great Peng Bird's nose inexplicably stung, and he felt the urge to cry.

Being scolded, beaten, and lectured by his elder brother Kong Xuan, being looked down upon by the Phoenix Clan, and even being beaten by his master had never made him yield.

Yet only.

When he heard this kind of concern from his master.

Did he inexplicably feel pain in his heart. The grievances accumulated over countless years seemed to have found an outlet, and he strangely wanted to burst into tears.

"What's wrong with you?"

Seeing Great Peng Bird lower his head, Qingyuan curiously looked over. But Great Peng Bird was afraid Qingyuan would see, so he turned away and secretly wiped his tears.

When he turned back, he had resumed his carefree appearance and said with a grin, "Nothing. I'm just curious what this Immortal Slaying Sword Formation is."

"Do not underestimate the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation!"

Qingyuan collected the storage artifact and spiritual treasures left behind by Three-Sturgeon Bird, then said solemnly, "This formation is the Heavenly Dao's foremost killing formation, the most ferocious and boundlessly savage formation since Hongmeng was opened! It is a slaughtering sword formation that governs the Heavenly Dao's killings! It is also the specialty formation of my master—your Grand Master Uncle, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, Sect Master Tongtian!"

"This formation is formed from the Four Immortal Slaying Swords and the Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram. It is also the Supreme Treasure that suppresses the Fortune Aura of the Interception Sect!"

"Once the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation emerges, the Slaying Immortal Sword brings sharpness, the Slaughter Sword brings death, the Entrapping Immortal Sword produces red light in all directions, and the Severing Immortal Sword possesses endless transformations. With a flash of sword light, Innate Sword Qi surges forth. When the four swords become one, they can even generate Chaos Sword Qi!"

"Boundless Destruction Qi shrouds Chaos, while endless colors of Slaughter cover Hongmeng. None but Heavenly Dao Saints can withstand it."

"Even..."

Gazing at Great Peng Bird's utterly stunned face.

Qingyuan smiled. "Without four Saints, it cannot be broken!!!"

Boom!

Great Peng Bird was incomparably shocked.

He knelt toward the Kunlun Mountains and kowtowed. "Grand Master Uncle, please forgive me! This disciple-grandson did not know the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation was so heaven-defying and terrifying. I spoke too rashly just now. Please spare my life, Grand Master Uncle!!"

"Get up. My master is not a petty person."

Qingyuan bowed toward the Kunlun Mountains.

Then he helped Great Peng Bird to his feet.

"Master, was that the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation you used just now?"

"No. At best, this was merely a Pseudo-Houtian Immortal Slaying Four Swords Formation. I used four sword-type Innate Spiritual Treasures, along with several Innate Spiritual Treasures and Formation Flags, borrowing the power of heaven and earth to kill Three-Sturgeon Bird. Otherwise, relying on my strength alone, I might have severely injured him, but I could not necessarily have killed him."

Qingyuan shook his head.

He sighed inwardly.

As expected of an era where Taiyi Golden Immortals were as common as dogs and Golden Immortals wandered everywhere.

The two brothers of the Sun Star had recruited countless Innate Demon Gods, Primordial Exotic Species, and major clans to establish the Heavenly Court.

They also used the Ten Thousand Demons Banner to control Kunpeng and countless other Primordial Wilderness experts.

That was what created such a flourishing and resplendent age.

It was also the era of the Demon Race and Witch Clan.

In this era filled with experts, there were still many great figures within the Primordial Wilderness.

Three-Sturgeon Bird, whose name Qingyuan had never even heard before, was already a Taiyi Golden Immortal with such methods. One could imagine just how terrifying those Demon Gods and demon commanders were.

Fortunately, he had become a Saint's disciple.

As long as he did not actively enter the Tribulation of Calamity, he generally would not perish within it.

"Let's go. The Primordial Wilderness is not peaceful. Let's return to the Kunlun Mountains."

"Master, what about that Little Azure Dragon?" Great Peng Bird asked curiously.

"There is no Karma between her and us. Let's go."

Qingyuan shook his head and sat atop the Great Roc.

But at that moment, a terrifying and majestic aura descended in rolling waves!!

In an instant, heaven and earth fell completely dark.

Boundless demon clouds filled the heavens.

Terrifying Killing Aura transformed into a Corpse Mountain Blood Sea that manifested across countless miles of mountains and rivers. Lightning flashed and thunder roared above that bloody, blackened sky. Nine enormous heads, each as vast as a Giant Peak, slowly rose at once. Their sun-and-moon-like eyes fixed coldly upon Qingyuan and Great Peng Bird as a merciless voice said, "You killed my offspring and think you can simply leave?"

"Damn, what a terrifying aura! Master, this must be a Quasi-Saint!!"

Great Peng Bird cried out in terror.

He had seen Phoenix Quasi-Saints at the Immortality Volcano. Coupled with his exceptional talent, he could roughly distinguish cultivation realms.

"That's right. A Quasi-Saint of the Demon Race... Nine Infants. But it is merely a strand of his will."

Qingyuan's expression turned grave.

Yet enormous waves surged through his heart.

A Quasi-Saint was actually this powerful? A single strand of will made both his body and Primordial Spirit tremble in fear. How terrifying would Nine Infants be if his true body descended?

The suppression from their difference in realms made Qingyuan feel extremely uncomfortable.

Yet he did not lower his head.

He struggled to raise it and stare at the Nine-Headed Monster, sneering, "What? The young one got beaten, so the old one came out? Your people can kill me, but I cannot fight back? Di Jun's Heavenly Court is truly imposing, to be tyrannical to such an extent!!"

"What a sharp-tongued brat. It seems I cannot spare you today!"

The Nine-Headed Demon Shadow looked vicious and malevolent, while the boundless Corpse Mountain Blood Sea rose and fell with his voice.

His might was especially terrifying!

"Cannot spare me?"

Not only was Qingyuan unafraid, he instead threw back his head and laughed wildly. "If I lower my head, admit defeat, and show fear today, then you need not kill me—I will take my own life!!"

"No one in this world can bend the spine of an Interception Sect disciple, and no one can crush an Interception Sect disciple's will!! Not to mention a mere strand of will from Nine Infants. Even if your true body came, even if Demon Emperor Di Jun, Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, and every expert and mighty figure of your Heavenly Court stood before me, I would still have no fear!"

"My head is right here. If you have the nerve, come take it!!"

His arrogant and unrestrained voice echoed between heaven and earth, shaking the Corpse Mountain Blood Sea.

Qingyuan's black hair was blown behind him by the wild wind, like three thousand demonic serpents dancing madly. His sword-like eyes and handsome face were filled with pride and wild arrogance!!!

At such a sight.

Even Great Peng Bird at his side was utterly convinced.

He had always believed his master to be an extremely proper cultivator, but he had never expected that when Qingyuan went wild, even he could not help but admire him!!

Wild!

Truly wild!!

Good heavens.

A mere Golden Immortal dared to provoke a Quasi-Saint.

Such a scene was likely rare even throughout the entire Primordial Wilderness!!

This was the kind of figure the Golden-winged Great Peng should follow as an example. What was Kong Xuan compared to him?!

Great Peng Bird was infected by the atmosphere and began shouting as well, "I am the Son of Primordial Phoenix—"

"Scram!"

The Nine-Headed Demon Shadow waved a stream of mana.

Great Peng Bird was sent flying to who knew where.

His eighteen blood-red eyes remained fixed on Qingyuan. Only after a long while did he reluctantly say, "What a First Disciple of Intercepting Sect. You have courage. I will certainly seek your instruction regarding today's matter another day."

"No need to wait for another day. If you have the nerve, kill me today!"

Qingyuan roared at Nine Infants, "You will neither fight nor kill, neither advance nor retreat. Why are you acting so coyly??"

"Could it be that everyone in your Heavenly Court is like this? You—"

Nine Infants was enraged beyond measure.

But there was nothing he could do.

He transformed into a streak of black light and vanished into the sky. In an instant, the vision of the Corpse Mountain Blood Sea disappeared.

"Hoo..."

Qingyuan inwardly let out a breath of relief.

Knowing the Demon Race Quasi-Saint did not dare kill him was one thing, but facing that terrifying aura in person was another.

Nine Infants was merely a strand of will.

Yet Qingyuan felt as though he had fought someone for three hundred rounds, his mana and physical strength completely exhausted.

After replenishing his mana.

Qingyuan went to find the Golden-winged Great Peng who had been sent flying away.

Great Peng Bird had not suffered any serious injuries.

He was merely somewhat dejected.

When he saw Qingyuan arrive, he asked dispiritedly, "Master, whenever I invoked the names of the Son of Primordial Phoenix and the Phoenix Clan before, everyone gave me some respect. Why is there no one willing to give me any respect now?"

"A blacksmith must be strong himself. If you were a Quasi-Saint, a mighty expert who dominated the Primordial Wilderness, who would dare look down on you?"

Qingyuan patted his shoulder encouragingly. "You are the first Golden-winged Great Peng between heaven and earth. You possess Innate Yin-Yang Two Energies and are born with invincible potential. Why must you borrow the names of others? Why not cultivate seriously and become someone others fear?"

"What is so good about being the second generation?"

"Couldn't you become the first generation instead???"
