Chapter 274 - 244: Exposed, Counter-kill
「In the ore cave.」
"We’ve been exposed," Xu Qing said grimly.
"Master, I didn’t know this would happen," Ye Langtian said.
"Mm."
Xu Qing nodded. "Ye Langtian, your identity can’t be revealed yet. You must remain hidden. That means we have to put on a show."
"I understand."
A glimmer appeared in Ye Langtian’s eyes.
The next moment.
"Thief, don’t even think about escaping!"
BOOM!
The roar of a violent explosion echoed.
BANG!
The ground of the basin cracked open, sending dirt and rock flying. Ye Langtian roared repeatedly, bursting forth at extreme speed with considerable might.
SWOOSH! SWOOSH!
Xu Qing and the others scattered and fled.
"Hahaha..."
Among them, Xu Qing threw his head back and laughed. His aura was magnificent and his power imposing, and his body surged with extreme Law fluctuations. "Blood Demon Sect, I, ’Yama,’ will gladly accept your Law Stones."
"In your dreams!"
BOOM!
Ye Langtian charged over with a roar, erupting with his full power. He unleashed the complete might of the Ultimate Extraordinary Extreme and even used a Divine Technique.
"You overestimate yourself."
Xu Qing snorted coldly. He raised his right hand, and the Level 30 Wandering Dragon Sword appeared in it. With a flick of his wrist, he slashed downward.
BANG!
The sound of an explosion rang out again.
"AH!!!"
SPURT!
Blood splattered.
Xu Qing easily crushed Ye Langtian’s attack. A powerful Sword Aura, containing immense Mighty Power, slashed down and grievously wounded Ye Langtian.
A horrifying sword wound marred his chest. It was so deep it nearly split him in two, and the gash went straight to the bone—a truly ghastly sight.
THUD!
Ye Langtian plummeted from the sky and crashed to the ground.
It was unclear if he was alive or dead.
"..."
The Blood Skull Demon and his companions naturally saw this. They glanced at Ye Langtian but paid him no further attention, instead locking onto Xu Qing and his seventeen servants.
VMMMM!
The Blood Skull Demon was about to make a move, but when he saw that Xu Qing and his seventeen servants were all masters of the ’Third Realm: Law Realm,’ he hesitated.
"Who are you? What’s your identity? Where do you come from?" the Blood Skull Demon questioned in a low voice. "Are you aware that this Tier Four Law Stone Vein belongs to the Blood Demon Sect? By doing this, are you declaring yourself an enemy of our sect?"
"I am ’Yama,’" Xu Qing replied calmly. "Besides, this Tier Four Law Stone Vein was originally ownerless. I was merely passing by. What’s wrong with taking a few Law Stones?"
"Yama."
The Blood Skull Demon’s expression turned thoughtful; he had never heard of this name. After a moment of contemplation, he snapped, "Our Blood Demon Sect was the first to discover this Tier Four Law Stone Vein, so it naturally belongs to us."
"If you return all the Law Stones, we can let this matter go."
"A joke."
Xu Qing sneered. "Now that they’re in my pocket, how could I possibly give them back? Are you kidding me?"
"Attack."
BOOM!!!
The next moment, the Blood Skull Demon bellowed. His conversation with Xu Qing had just been a stalling tactic to activate the Blood Demon Array and gather enough Energy.
In the blink of an eye, the Blood Demon Array was operational, fusing the power of the Blood Skull Demon and his men into a massive, imposing Blood Demon Battle General.
The Blood Demon Battle General was blood-red from head to toe, clad in Blood Demon Armor and wielding a Blood Demon Long Spear. It emanated an imposing aura, surging with the mighty Power of Law.
It was indeed extremely powerful.
"Then die! Kill!"
The Blood Skull Demon roared, brimming with killing intent. "All of you will die here tonight!"
"Divine Technique! Annihilation!"
BOOM!
With a single thought, Xu Qing unleashed a powerful Divine Technique. The full might of his Perfection Level ’Divine Technique: Annihilation’ was released.
After all, Xu Qing had now reached the ’Third Realm: Law Realm.’ Although he had only just mastered fifteen percent of the Reincarnation Law, he now wielded the Power of Law. The Mighty Power generated by using the Power of Law to cast ’Divine Technique: Annihilation’ naturally far surpassed what he could achieve using True Intent Power.
CRACKLE! CRACKLE!
Xu Qing raised his right hand. A purplish-black vortex appeared in his palm, with streaks of purplish-black lightning shooting out, annihilating everything in all directions.
Moreover, Xu Qing transformed the Mighty Power of ’Divine Technique: Annihilation’ into streaks of purplish-black lightning that coiled around the blade of his Level 30 Wandering Dragon Sword.
...
[Wandering Dragon Sword Level 30: 0/33,764,147,200 (A Law Sword infused with a Dragon Soul, containing vast Mighty Power and engraved with nine Law Patterns.)]
...
Evidently, the Level 30 Wandering Dragon Sword was incredibly powerful. Its quality and strength had already surpassed that of a ’Top-Grade Nine-Layered Law Artifact.’ Wielding this sword naturally boosted Xu Qing’s combat prowess immensely.
"Annihilating Wandering Dragon Sword!"
ROAR!
The cry of a dragon echoed in all directions.
Wielding the Level 30 Wandering Dragon Sword, Xu Qing unleashed a slash. It erupted with terrifying Mighty Power, immensely strong and with a magnificent aura. The Sword Aura he unleashed was like a True Dragon.
CRACK!
BANG!
Xu Qing’s slash was extraordinarily powerful, no small matter. The True Dragon formed from Sword Qi clashed with the Blood Demon Battle General, setting off a continuous series of deafening booms.
RUMBLE!
CRACK! CRACK!
Finally, the Blood Demon Battle General and the Sword Qi True Dragon exploded simultaneously. They completely shattered, breaking into a sky full of brilliant light before dissipating.
"!!!"
The Blood Skull Demon’s eyes flew wide, his pupils contracting in absolute horror and fear. "Impossible! This is impossible! How can this be?!"
"This..."
The other old demons were also extremely shocked.
"Such powerful strength."
"That’s a Perfection Level Divine Technique."
"That’s right."
"That fellow who calls himself ’Yama,’ the Power of Law on him isn’t strong. By my estimation, it hasn’t even surpassed ’twenty percent.’ But for him to have mastered a Perfection Level Slaughter Divine Technique at this stage... his aptitude is monstrous, his Talent is peerless, and that Law Artifact in his hand is anything but ordinary."
"Indeed."
"..."
Yanyun Zhenren and the others were discussing this animatedly, all filled with amazement.
"It seems your strength isn’t all that great."
Xu Qing’s expression was calm as he said, "It appears I overestimated you."
"In that case..."
VMM! VMM!
Without further hesitation, Xu Qing’s will stirred. One after another, Level 30 items appeared around him: the Level 30 Clear Heart Wooden Fish, the Level 30 Wooden Buddha Bell, the Level 30 Serenity Dao Bell, the Level 30 Academy Ruler, the Level 30 Deceitful Copper Gong, the Level 30 Beheading Demon Blade, and the Level 30 Broken Ten Thousand Beasts Drum.
Level 30 items from six different paths all appeared.
Twelve Layers of Law swirled around him.
They formed a Law Realm.
CRACK! CRACK!
"Break!"
RUMBLE!
With a great rumble, Xu Qing’s will stirred. He manipulated the Law Realm formed by the Twelve Layers of Law and, with the ease of snapping a dry twig, completely destroyed the Blood Skull Demon’s Blood Demon Array.
"Die!"
CLANG!
A sword hummed as three blades appeared around Xu Qing.
The Level 30 Iron Sword, the Level 30 Wandering Dragon Sword, and the Level 30 Copper Coin Sword.
The three swords circled around him.
"Go!"
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
Under Xu Qing’s control, the three swords shot through the air. Infused with the power of the Twelve Layers of Law and amplified by Xu Qing’s own Mighty Power, they descended before the utterly terrified eyes of the Blood Skull Demon and his cohorts.
SPURT! SPURT! SPURT!!!
Blood sprayed through the air.
One head after another flew into the sky. Xu Qing had slaughtered the Blood Skull Demon and all his men. It was a complete rout; he had beheaded every last one of them.
All dead.
Not a single one was spared.
They were powerless to resist.
’I never thought my strength had already reached this level.’
Xu Qing gazed at the corpse of the Blood Skull Demon, a wave of emotion washing over him.
Evidently, after stepping into the ’Third Realm: Law Realm,’ although his own Power of Law was not particularly strong, he possessed numerous Level 30 items that were more than enough to amplify his strength.
Moreover, Xu Qing had also mastered a Perfection Level Divine Technique.
Therefore, Xu Qing’s strength was immense. Even a typical expert at the Peak of the Law Realm who had only mastered a single Law would likely not be his match and would be killed by him instead.
