Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
With the help of Dark Night Emperor, Qingfeng Li had located the weakness of the Hell talisman scripts on the Sword of Execution.
Qingfeng Li activated his Mortal Purgatory Body and emitted shining golden light to block the attack of the hellish sword aura. At the same time, his fist swept across the sky and slammed onto the point of the Sword of Execution.
As predicted, Qingfeng Li felt the sword point tremble slightly under the attack of his fist. Although the tremble was not obvious, Qingfeng Li had sensed it with ease.
“The weakness is indeed here and my attack is having an effect on it.” Qingfeng Li was exhilarated. After battling with the woman in black for so long, he was tired of it and wanted to end it as soon as possible.
Qingfeng Li circulated the vital essence in his body while his fist slammed out repeatedly, which transformed into giant fist shadows.
He launched dozens of fist strikes onto the point of the Sword of Execution.
Crack!
At the 50th fist strike, the Hell talisman scripts on the point of the Sword of Execution shattered with a cracking sound and transformed into beams of black light before vanishing in the air.
The Sword of Execution without the Hell talisman scripts was like a tiger without its claws and teeth. Devoid of the presence of the Hell talisman scripts, it was only an ordinary spiritual treasure sword.
However, the Sword of Execution was made of precious supreme-grade black crystal iron.
Qingfeng Li’s Fire Emperor Sword was only an emperor-grade spiritual treasure and was naturally no match for the supreme-grade spiritual treasure.
But Qingfeng Li wasn’t worried about it because the Sword of Execution without the Hell talisman scripts couldn’t block the Golden Flames.
Qingfeng Li released the Golden Flames, letting it dance between his fingers.
Then he threw it forward with great force. With crackling sounds, the fire burned up the black iron from Hell and turned it into a puddle of molten black iron on the ground. Then the molten black iron evaporated and vanished.
“Qingfeng Li, you are a jerk! You shouldn’t have melted my Sword of Execution! You’re my sworn enemy,” The woman in black screamed at Qingfeng Li with bitter hatred.
As the Chief Executioner of the Pope’s Pagoda, the woman in black’s greatest power lied in the Sword of Execution, which had been a gift to her from the Goddess of Hell.
The Goddess of Hell and the God of Light were a married couple, so when the God of Light created the Pope’s Pagoda, the Goddess of Hell had sent gifts.
“The only fate for my enemies is death.” Qingfeng Li smiled coldly, intense killing intent flashing in his eyes.
His body shifted forward and he arrived before the woman in black in a blink of an eye.
Then he shot a beam of blue light into the heart of the woman in black with vicious force.
Crack!
With a huge sound, the woman in black’s heart was broken into two halves and blood gushed out from the wound. Bleeding from every orifice, she dropped onto the ground and died.
Without sparing a glance at the dead body, Qingfeng Li stepped over it and walked to face Saladin.
“Qingfeng Li, do you know that you have offended the Hell of the Western Self-cultivation World by killing the human representative of the Goddess of Hell?” Saladin asked Qingfeng Li coldly.
With a slight smile, Qingfeng li said indifferently, “Saladin, I am not afraid of the Goddess of Hell since I don’t even give a damn about the God of Light. If she dares to show up, I will kill her.”
Qingfeng Li had killed the avatar of a western god at the Hell underneath the Kunlun Mountains, so he was not at all afraid even if the Goddess of Hell showed up.
Saladin looked at Qingfeng Li coldly, chilling light flashing in his eyes.
It was hard to tell the exact age of the old man. He must be at least several hundred years old, which was suggest by his ancient wrinkles, withered face, and sparse white hair.
Saladin stood there quietly without any weapons in his hands, but his whole being seemed to be merged with the Pope’s Pagoda. He emitted a godlike presence which awed anyone who looked at him
Black Puppy’s expression changed, and he warned in a low voice, “Qingfeng Li, you must be careful. The Pope is trying to suppress you with the Power of Faith here. You must defeat him as soon as possible.”
Qingfeng Li nodded because he sensed the Power of Faith was becoming greater each moment and he had begun to feel more pain from the suppression.
When he walked forward, he felt a force of a few millions of pounds was suppressing his body. Every step was a struggle.
His clothes were shattered, and his skin and muscles cracked with blood oozing out.
But Qingfeng Li continued to walk toward Saladin indifferently. He knew that Saladin was gathering the Power of Faith here and Qingfeng Li would be in great danger if he condensed all of the faith from all eighteen floors. Qingfeng Li must defeat or kill him as soon as possible.
“Qingfeng Li, although you realized that I’m gathering the power of faith, it’s too late for you now. Today I will show you my power.” With a cold smile, Saladin slowly extended his right hand, forming a black ball full of flashing talisman scripts of faith.
The talisman scripts represented the Power of Faith from all the believers in the Western Continents. The Power of Faith began condensing into a powerful spirit attack.
At the sight of the talisman scripts of faith, Qingfeng Li was secretly relieved. He wouldn’t be his rival’s match in terms of physical attacks.
But Qingfeng Li wasn’t afraid of spirit energy attacks.
It was because he had the Black-and-White Millstone, which was an absolute treasure in the entire universe.
With great force, Saladin threw the talisman scripts of faith forward into the depths of Qingfeng Li’s mind.
At first, Qingfeng Li felt a stinging pain in his head, as if thousands of believers were stabbing at his spirit energy with the intention of swallowing the energy of his soul.
But the next moment, the Black-and-White Millstone appeared in his mind with a shiver of excitement. It was trembling with happiness at the delicious scent of food — the energy of thousands of souls.
The Black-and-White Millstone in Qingfeng Li’s mind shot out two balls of spiritual light.
One black and the other white, the two light balls formed the S-shaped Taichi Talisman script which was also called Yin-yang Talisman script. The talisman script represented the force of the universe and Yin-yang.
Rushing into the talisman scripts of faith, the Taichi talisman script devoured them all and turned them into its own energy.
