Slaying-Force Cauldron: Enemy-Slaying Spirit Jade

The strongest warriors here, the Purple-Robed Marquis and Yuan Yuan, were simply no match for Chen Lingxi in a direct confrontation.

Yuan Yuan stood atop the clouds, having just exchanged a blow with Chen Lingxi, and the sword wound on his right palm still throbbed faintly.

He could naturally see that the sudden surge of power emanating from Chen Lingxi was not something he had cultivated himself, but rather something that had been imbued with great power by some unfathomable being using Secret Method.

Regardless of where this power came from, Chen Lingxi at this moment was far beyond what he could match alone.

As he was pondering, Chen Lingxi arrived on a cloud.

Thunderlight Sword in his hand, the three-colored sword energy on the blade flickering erratically, each strike carrying terrifying, world-destroying power.

Yuan Yuan retreated repeatedly, unleashing a series of profound Qi and Blood arts techniques with his palms flying across the room.

However, those martial arts techniques were no longer powerful in the face of Chen Lingxi's sword light, and were shattered one after another!

The Purple-Robed Marquis arrived, spear in hand, his Qi and Blood greatly diminished.

At that moment, Chen Lingxi clenched his left hand in the Void, Heaven-Seizing Seal with all his might, and a giant handprint ten feet in diameter slapped towards Yuan Yuan from the side.

Yuan Yuan swung his palm to meet the attack; the palm strike collided with the hand seal, creating a thunderous roar.

Lightning flashed across Chen Lingxi's longsword as it pierced towards Yuan Yuan's brow.

Yuan Yuan's pupils suddenly contracted.

That sword light was too fast!

He clearly sensed the immense power of that incomparably sharp sword intent!

Meanwhile, heavenly drums resounded all around, locking him in place on all four sides.

There's no way to avoid it!

Yuan Yuan was helpless.

"The reason he came here is to guard against Xi Yu. There is a mysterious energy flowing within the bright jade that Xi Yu Bright Jade, and there may be something extraordinary about it."

Unexpectedly, Chen Lingxi, who had always been under their control, suddenly became so powerful due to some unknown fortuitous opportunity!

"If that sword light were to pierce my brow, I fear..."

Yuan Yuan was deeply shaken.

Right at this moment...

He seemed to sense something, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

But then I saw...

Suddenly, a long rainbow appeared in the far distance, stretching across the sky!

The rainbow was incredibly fast, crossing thousands of mountains and rivers, and landed between Yuan Yuan and Chen Lingxi!

As the rainbow light swirled, a figure emerged from it, its face obscured, its body hunched, and its appearance aged.

This person stepped forward and, with a flick of his sleeve, blocked the sword light!

Then, as the rainbow light flowed, it enveloped Yuan Yuan and the Purple-Robed Marquis together.

Chen Lingxi's sword struck the rainbow light, it was as if it had pierced into an extremely viscous swamp.

The lightning on the sword's edge was gradually worn away, and by the time it pierced through the rainbow light, the sword's momentum had weakened considerably.

Taking advantage of the moment, the old man swept up Yuan Yuan and the Purple-Robed Marquis marquis, transforming them into a long rainbow and flying away into the distance!

"Could it be Emperor Daye?"

Chen Lingxi felt a great sense of regret.

"The Purple-Robed Marquis and Yuan Yuan! Each of them possesses the combat power of the Qi Circulation, Eleventh Floor. If we can kill these two, we can greatly weaken the power of Emperor Daye."

But then he thought about it again and frowned.

"Emperor Daye seems to have some limitations in his actions. He came in person, but he didn't attack me; he only took these two away."

He shook his head slightly, no longer wanting to think about it; he had more important things to do at the moment.

Chen Lingxi slowly turned around, Qi Observation, and looked into the distance.

Then he saw a green Willow Leaf silently flying into the distance at the edge of the battlefield, which was shrouded by eight Great Banner.

The Willow Leaf flew extremely fast, carrying a slender figure on its back—it was Xi Yu.

"Trying to leave?"

Chen Lingxi snorted coldly.

The clouds swirled beneath his feet, accompanied by thunder, propelling him through the Void towards the Willow Leaf!

Xi Yu naturally sensed Chen Lingxi approaching, and the green mark between her eyebrows suddenly lit up.

The speed of the Willow Leaf increased several times in the instant the mark lit up, as fast as a bolt of lightning.

However, Chen Lingxi's Cloud-Riding Technique has also undergone a transformation.

Under the Mystic Realm, his Cloud-Riding Technique completely merged with his own spiritual energy and the Thunder Treasure Qi. He transformed into a human-shaped bolt of lightning, slicing through the sky at a speed even faster than a Willow Leaf.

The two streaks of light chased each other in the Void for only a few dozen breaths before Chen Lingxi caught up to a hundred feet behind Xi Yu!

He reached for his waist with his right hand, Thunderlight Sword was drawn with a clang.

The lightning on the sword shone brightest at that moment. He slashed out with his sword, Twelve Heavenly Drum Peals crashed down on Xi Yu like a deluge.

Xi Yu's expression was serious.

She clasped her hands together in front of her, and dozens of mysterious runes shot out from her fingertips as her fingers flew.

At the same time, another talisman, shimmering with spiritual light, flew out from her Hongdong Bag.

The talisman seemed extremely precious, its spiritual energy so dense it was terrifying.

This must be Xi Yu's life-saving treasure.

Numerous runes landed on the talisman and then spread out layer upon layer, transforming into a blue barrier woven from runes behind her.

The Twelve Heavenly Drum Peals struck the azure barrier, exploding into a series of dazzling lights.

The barrier trembled violently after being struck, but it barely managed to withstand the attack.

Xi Yu actually used a talisman technique to forcefully block Chen Lingxi's seemingly inevitable sword strike.

Chen Lingxi raised an eyebrow slightly!

"This Xi Yu is indeed extraordinary."

"Precisely because they are extraordinary, we should kill them as soon as possible."

He was about to deliver another blow.

At that moment, the jade pendant at Xi Yu's waist suddenly shone brightly.

The light intensified instantly!

Immediately afterwards, Chen Lingxi's pupils contracted slightly.

He saw a beam of light burst forth from the jade pendant.

The radiance coalesced, transforming into a human figure!

He was a handsome young man dressed in white.

He looked to be about twenty-three or twenty-four years old. His robes were spotless, his face ethereal and otherworldly, his eyebrows as light as wisps of smoke, and his eyes clear and bright, as if untouched by worldly dust. He was unlike any ordinary person. The moment this young man appeared, his face revealed an undisguised arrogance.

He stood with his hands behind his Xi Yu, tilting his head slightly, his gaze falling on Chen Lingxi, a very faint smile appearing on his lips.

The smile carried a condescending indifference, as if looking at an overconfident ant.

"You dare to kill someone in front of me?" he said softly.

Before he finished speaking, he blew out a beam of Mystic Light!

The Mystic Light was pure white and seemed light and powerless, but when it drifted toward Chen Lingxi, the Void was as if it had been cleaved in two by an invisible blade, leaving a bottomless rift.

The power contained within caused Chen Lingxi's pupils to shrink slightly.

"Indeed, it has a solid foundation."

This Mystic Light is of an extremely high level.

"This is the Qi-Less Grotto-Heaven! If this white-robed figure had Dao Foundation Realm, Xi Yu wouldn't have come to seize this Slaying-Force Cauldron!"

But Chen Lingxi showed no fear whatsoever.

He snorted coldly, and a sword light flashed, carrying earth-shattering power, slashing fiercely at the elegant young man. It collided with the Mystic Light first, and the Mystic Light dissipated, but the Sword Qi and lightning did not dissipate, and went straight for the elegant young man.

The elegant young man's expression finally changed.

He frowned slightly, and a beam of Mystic Light shot out from between his brows!

The Mystic Light was more condensed than the previous one, with countless fine runes floating and flowing within it.

But Chen Lingxi was truly mysterious; upon colliding with the Mystic Light, it vanished.

The elegant young man frowned even more deeply.

He snorted coldly, and his figure suddenly transformed into a tornado.

The tornado, carrying Xi Yu and the Willow Leaf, flew away into the distance like a turquoise whirlwind, moving at an extremely fast speed.

"By borrowing the power of others... I will spare you for now, but wait until I transform myself... and come to find you in person!"

Within the tornado, the handsome young man's face appeared and disappeared intermittently.

His face was filled with rage, radiating murderous intent intent, and a genuine killing intent appeared in his ethereal eyes.

He probably felt it was a great humiliation to be forced to retreat by someone of unknown origin.

However, he also knew that this avatar lacked spiritual energy, and if he were to fight against this person, even if he could injure her, he probably wouldn't be able to completely defeat her.

If they don't leave, and they lose the fight against this person, Xi Yu will surely die at his hands.

Rather than taking the risk, it's better to use the escape technique to take Xi Yu away.

As for Chen Lingxi, his power will eventually dissipate.

He has always been this domineering...

"Whether it's the Cauldron Vessel in my hand or the incarnation of that Essence Blood, I can kill him either way. Why rush things?"

But would Chen Lingxi let him have his way?

A cloud of mist suddenly rose beneath his feet, and he chased after the tornado like lightning.

The Twelve Heavenly Drum Peals resounded once more, unleashing twelve beams of sword light that swept down upon the tornado, covering the sky and the earth.

The tornado was fast, but it couldn't outrun Chen Lingxi's sword.

Three or four of the twelve sword lights pierced into the tornado, severing a section of the rapidly spinning tornado.

The tornado suddenly paused, Xi Yu's figure appeared and disappeared within it!

She groaned softly, and a trickle of blood escaped from the corner of her mouth.

The residual force of those sword beams penetrated the tornado's barrier and struck her. Though not fatal, they still inflicted considerable injury.

Within the tornado, the elegant young man's face grew increasingly furious, but he ultimately refrained from making another move.

The tornado suddenly throbbed, soaring into the sky like a blue dragon breaking free of its shackles, and vanished into the horizon in an instant.

Chen Lingxi snorted coldly and sheathed her sword.

He could have pursued it further, but although the image of that elegant young man had faded, it still retained some power.

However, the spiritual power he possesses is not inexhaustible, so it would be unwise to rashly pursue him at this moment.

after all...

"That Slaying-Force Cauldron... will find its owner!"

He stood atop the clouds, his gaze sweeping across the battlefield shrouded by eight Great Banner, and Heaven-Seizing Great Hand Seal struck a distant mountain like a golden thunderbolt!

On that mountain peak, Emperor Bow Earl was fleeing.

But Heaven-Seizing Great Hand Seal had already arrived.

The handprint shattered her protective Qi and Blood, smashed the great bow in her hand, and then seized an arrow that the Emperor Bow Earl Master had hastily launched a counterattack from, before throwing it with a backhand motion!

The arrow, like a dark golden lightning bolt, pierced straight into Emperor Bow Earl's brow.

Emperor Bow Earl is also dead!

In a short time, those who came to surround and kill Chen Lingxi either died or fled.

Without the Purple-Robed Marquis's command, the eight dark red banners also lost the leadership of several Nine Revolutions generals from the Eight-Division Army. The remaining troops and the scattered individuals vying for the throne were fleeing in a frenzy.

The entire battlefield was quickly reduced to pieces.

Chen Lingxi stood alone in the Void, sensing the surging power around her that was slowly fading away.

At this moment, he could clearly sense that the power from the mysterious middle-aged man was being drawn away from his body bit by bit.

Chen Lingxi remained silent for a moment, her curiosity about this mysterious middle-aged man growing stronger.

"This mysterious power is like a gift from that mysterious person to me."

"But I only need to kill three thousand martial artists to obtain a true great divine Divine Ability."

"The Divine Ability to kill someone on the Eleventh Floor floor from the Ninth Floor floor..."

Chen Lingxi's eyes were burning.

Although there are only two floors between the ninth and Eleventh Floor of the Ninth Floor of Qi Circulation, the difference between these two floors is like an insurmountable chasm.

For an ordinary Ninth Floor cultivator, let alone fighting against Eleventh Floor cultivator, even directly confronting Tenth Floor would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

The reason he was able to kill Shi Hong from the Ninth Floor was because he had the Delayed Light Flying Dagger and the Purple True Treasure Bottle.

If he relied solely on his own cultivation level, he might be able to contend with ordinary Tenth Floor cultivators, but he wouldn't be able to win so easily.

"But if I could truly obtain that powerful killing technique, then even when facing those unfathomable figures in the imperial court within this Cave Heaven, I would have a greater chance of self-preservation."

After a moment's thought, Chen Lingxi reached out and a golden toad appeared in his hand.

The toad was about the size of a palm, and its entire body was carved from some kind of unknown gold and jade, making it incredibly lifelike.

It crouched in Chen Lingxi's palm, its mouth slightly open, with a faint, almost imperceptible spiritual light swirling within.

It was Wu Mohe's Cauldron Vessel.

Gold-Devouring Toad.

Chen Lingxi held the Gold-Devouring Toad in his palm, infused it with spiritual energy, and sank his consciousness into his Divine Chamber.

[Progress of Total Perception Essence Replenishment: 82%]

"There is hope."

Chen Lingxi's eyes lit up.

He Gold-Devouring Toad into his Hongdong Bag and then turned his gaze to the Void not far away.

There hangs a small stone tablet there, which is the fragment of that Slaying-Force Cauldron.

The ancient aura emanating from the stone tablet still lingered, but the Void Turbulence that had enveloped its surface had completely dissipated.

Within a radius of a hundred miles, all the cultivators who intended to seize the Cauldron Vessel were either killed by him or retreated more than a hundred miles away.

Chen Lingxi was about to take flight and approach the Slaying-Force Cauldron.

But this Slaying-Force Cauldron seemed to possess a spirit, and in an instant it transformed into a stream of light, traversing great distances and hovering in front of Chen Lingxi.

Chen Lingxi up, and she raised her hand to grasp the stone tablet.

In the blink of an eye, within the Divine Chamber, Total Perception's progress in Essence Replenishment energy increased wildly, reaching perfection.

At the same time, more messages entered his mind.

It contains the true name of this fragment of the Slaying-Force Cauldron, as well as the profound power it contains!

Chen Lingxi her face.

whispering...

"Enemy-Slaying Spirit Jade"

As Chen Lingxi silently recited these four words, she felt a chilling aura of killing intent emanating from the stone tablet.

Two messages were still echoing in his mind.

[The Great Heavenly General of Immortal Capital, gathering the ferocious energy of a Daoist corpse, forged the Cauldron Vessel — the Enemy-Slaying Spirit Jade!]

[To commend the Hanging-Sword Daoist!]

Chen Lingxi a deep breath.

So Slaying-Force Cauldron is now in our hands?

The mysterious person within the large Black Banner was unexpected, yet it brought him many gains.

If it weren't for that mysterious person, this Slaying-Force Cauldron probably wouldn't have ended up in his hands.

Within the Black Banner, a smile appeared on the face of the mysterious man with an air of otherworldly grace.

He sat upright amidst the mysterious Black Banner Mystery Mechanism, the filthy Mystery Mechanism Black Banner unable to taint his body.

"Chen Lingxi! You have fought with me for thirty thousand years, yet I will traverse the Long River of time to lay down a calamity for you from thirty thousand years ago! Let's see how you... achieve enlightenment!"
