Chapter 1329: Killing the Third Elder
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Qingfeng Li's Fire Mountain collided with the third elder's green mountain sword energy, blowing the air open. A black hole began to form and from it, emerged the devils of the third layer of Hell.
As soon as the devils appeared, however, they were met with the fury of Qingfeng Li's Fire Mountain. The phantoms screamed out from pain as they burnt, transforming into a gust of green smoke and disappearing almost instantly.
Deng Deng!!
This time, it was the third elder who took two steps back. His face was pale, and his sword-wielding hand had an unnoticeable shake.
On the other hand, Qingfeng Li was completely stable, as if nothing had happened to him.
Qingfeng Li was delighted. The Fire Emperor Sword Technique was truly powerful. He was able to force back the third elder only through the use of the first sword skill. If he had used the stronger techniques, killing the third elder would've been a breeze.
At the thought of this, Qingfeng Li looked excited. He said arrogantly, "Didn't you say you were tough? It seems like that isn't true. Watch as I smash your crappy sword technique into the ground."
The third elder's expression darkened, his eyes flashing cold. As soon as he was forced back, he realized that Qingfeng Li had gotten stronger.
"Bastard, how did he learn a whole set of sword techniques within ten seconds?! He really is a monster." The third elder was kicking himself for losing those ten valuable seconds he gave Qingfeng Li.
"fire river!" With a loud roar, Qingfeng Li flipped his wrist and struck forward his sword, unleashing the Fire Emperor Sword's second technique.
Suddenly, red flames in the sky formed into a gigantic river of a couple thousand meters long.
Of course, the river wasn't made of water and didn't contain any fish. It was entirely made from fire, as if it were a river of lava. Its fiery blaze exuded terrifying heat, intense scorching waves rushing towards the third elder.
The third elder panicked. He could sense an incredible danger from the river of fire.
He immediately pulled out his longsword to form a sword energy green mountain, hoping to defend against the fire river.
However, the sword energy green mountain was weak against the fire river, shattering instantly. The remaining broken pieces turned into ashes of vital essence, disappearing into nothingness.
The fire river carried a terrifying heat wave, smashing onto the third elder viciously, torching his clothes, charring his body black, and scorching his hairs.
He spewed out a mouth full of blood, coloring his charred body red, the pain evident in his eyes.
Qingfeng Li's Fire Emperor Sword Technique was indeed powerful. It was a sword technique of the high-tier planets and contained unrivaled attack power. It was more than enough to defeat the third elder.
At the sight of the heavily injured third elder, Qingfeng Li was merciless. He jumped into the air and arrived before the third elder as if he was a black lightning bolt. He struck forward with the Fire Emperor Sword, directly cutting off the third elder's head and spraying blood everywhere.
The Sword Emperor Sect's Third Elder was Dead.
Moments before death, the third elder had his eyes wide-open. He was in utter disbelief. He couldn't believe that Qingfeng Li had killed him.
"I told you that you were a Sword Emperor Sect garbage. Do you believe me now?" At the sight of the dead third elder, Qingfeng Li shook his head in disappointment.
"Qingfeng Li is too powerful! He killed the third elder of the Sword Emperor Sect!"
"Yeah! The third elder is a Spirit Emperor Realm master and still died to Qingfeng Li. Just how strong is he?"
"If I'm right, there cannot be more than five people within the second layer of Hell who can defeat Qingfeng Li."
The surrounding self-cultivators all spoke in awe, their eyes full of shock, gazing at Qingfeng Li as if he were a monster.
Qingfeng Li ignored the comments and the gazes. Instead, he continued to walk forward. He needed to grab the Saint Perishing Fruits.
Shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo...
The surrounding self-cultivators all backed away, making way for Qingfeng Li, too scared to cross him.
Qingfeng Li made his way to the Saint Perishing Fruit. Just as he was about to reach out and grab the fruit, a deafening sound came from behind.
Qingfeng Li immediately turned around, just to see a senior carrying a blade and another holding an iron staff, both charging towards him.
Qingfeng Li immediately swung out his Fire Emperor Sword, striking out a ray of fire sword energy, clashing it towards the seniors.
Deng Deng Deng!!!
All three men took a step back. No one had come out on top from the exchange.
Qingfeng Li's expression darkened, his eyes flashing cold, glaring at the two seniors as if his gaze alone could kill them.
"Who are you people? Why did you ambush me?" Qingfeng Li asked.
The senior in black on the left said, " I am the third elder of the Blade-Emperor sect. The Saint Perising Fruit is mine."
The senior in blue on the right said, " I am the Left Guardian of the Beast-Emperor Sect. I want the Saint Perishing Fruit. You should leave immediately."
Qingfeng Li furrowed his brows, his eyes flashing cold. He never thought he would have to fight two other strong men right after he killed the third elder of the Sword-Emperor Sect. Not to mention, the two men were both incredibly powerful masters.
Within the world of self-cultivation, the Blade-Emperor sect and the Beast-Emperor Sect shared the same status as the Sword-Emperor Sect. All three sects were supreme powerhouses, and all three were emperor level sects, the highest level of self-cultivation sects within all of Huaxia. They stood at the very top of the self-cultivation foodchain, looking down on countless self-cultivators.
Qingfeng Li looked at the two seniors and said, "I have to have the Saint Perishing Fruit today. If you continue to attack me, I will make you my enemy."
The Left Guardian of the Beast-Emperor Sect laughed while riding a black demonic tiger. He said with disdain, "Us Beast-Emperor Sect elites have never been scared of others. You want to threaten me? Did you take your medication today?"
At the sound of his voice, the surrounding self-cultivators all glanced at him in disbelief.
After all, they had just witnessed the death of the third elder. Even though he was powerful, he was still no match for Qingfeng Li.
It was clear that the two seniors didn't see the death of the Sword-Emperor Sect's third elder.
If the two seniors had witnessed Qingfeng Li murdering the third elder, they wouldn't have challenged him. They were too weak to fight Qingfeng.
Qingfeng Li stuck out his finger and pointed towards the third elder's corpse. He said, " Do you see that? That was the Sword-Emperor Sect's third elder. He dared to challenge me, so I sent him to hell."
The two men gazed toward the direction Qingfeng Li pointed to and their gazes dimmed. Sure enough, there was a headless corpse in the far distance.
There was a head not too far from the corpse, and they could tell that it was definitely the head of the Sword-Emperor Sect's third elder. Both men had seen him before, so they were able to recognize his face.
The Left Guardian of the Beast-Emperor sect furrowed his brows as he turned to the senior in black of the Blade-Emperor sect. He asked, "Do you think Qingfeng Li killed the Sword-Emperor Sect's third elder?"
The senior in black shook his head and replied, "No way, the Sword-Emperor Sect's third elder is a Spirit Emperor Realm master. I can't even kill him, how could Qingfeng Li?
