Chapter 75 Sword Cultivator_2
The elder sat closed-eyed, cultivating his spirit, looking quite dignified.
He was the Peak Master of the Tian Dou Peak of the Daluo Sect—Qing Yu, the True Master!
When Qingxu True Monarch launched his attack, he was left behind within the Daluo Sect to oversee the operation of certain restrictions designed to suppress those who opposed Qingxu True Monarch.
However, after Qingxu True Monarch's failure and the backward surge of the sect's restrictions, he too was severely injured and immediately fled from the Daluo Sect.
His lifebound magic item was a flying sword, which allowed him to fly and escape, so he wasn't caught up to by his pursuers for a short time.
But flying on the sword consumed too much energy and left traces that made it easy to track him down step by step. Therefore, after traveling a distance, Qing Yu, the True Master, landed and chose to flee through conventional transportation.
At this moment, the driver of the car he was in had fallen under his illusion technique, driving him over a hundred kilometers away.
Qing Yu, the True Master, knew that it wouldn't be long before the Daluo Sect found his final landing spot. The enemy could probably deduce his possible escape route from there and set up a blockade in advance.
The key question was, how formidable were the people the Daluo Sect and the court could send to intercept him in such a short time?
As the Peak Master of one of the Daluo Sect's Twelve Peaks, Qing Yu, the True Master, was certainly not weak. Moreover, as a sword cultivator with the strongest killing power, even with his injuries not fully healed, he was confident that he could break through any encirclement!
The car swiftly reached Ming Family Town, where a checkpoint had been set up on the road ahead.
Qing Yu, the True Master, opened his eyes and glanced at the checkpoint before him.
Two Tao Foundation Stage martial artists, and over a dozen martial masters at the Qi Change Stage.
This lineup made Qing Yu, the True Master, relax considerably.
"Just one sword strike is enough."
So he thought.
At that moment, while the car was still over three hundred meters from the checkpoint, just as he was about to release his lifebound flying sword, three figures suddenly charged out from the trees on the right side of the road.
The three men, looking identical, rushed at the car with their knives, moving extremely fast.
Qing Yu, the True Master, was startled. When had he been exposed?
Throughout his journey, he had concealed himself well, restrained his magic aura, and even shielded his fate from divination. Shouldn't the enemy first stop the car to inspect it, and then react upon noticing something amiss?
How did they ascertain that he was in this car?
He had no time to think further as Qing Yu, the True Master, brought out his lifebound flying sword.
When the three from the roadside were still seven or eight meters away from the car, a blue sword light flew out of the window, and with a flash, the three men were nearly simultaneously bisected at the waist!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The three figures exploded into three clouds of blood-colored Evil Qi.
The perpetrator was, of course, Li Fei.
Through the "Dream Realm," he had spotted a blurry shadow moving in this direction from a distance.
The indistinct shadow suggested that the person was using some form of concealment, which, however, was not indistinguishable from ordinary people within the "Dream Realm."
At a time like this, when someone who was deliberately concealing themselves appeared, Li Fei easily guessed that it must be Qing Yu, the True Master.
Thus, he condensed out clones in advance, hid them by the roadside, and then launched the attack.
As the three clones were destroyed, Li Fei's real body leaped from the fields on the left, onto the highway, and swung his Ghost Slash Blade at the car carrying Qing Yu, the True Master.
In fact, Li Fei and the others did not actually need to stop Qing Yu, the True Master—it was an unrealistic expectation.
All they needed to do was to destroy Qing Yu's mode of transportation, delay his progress, and deplete his true power; that would be considered mission accomplished.
As the golden blade light released by Li Fei was about to touch the door of the car, it was shattered by the blue sword light.
He did not stop his feet but continued to rush forward.
Qing Yu, the True Master, glanced at Li Fei and turned a Void Thought into a magic spell that struck Li Fei instantaneously.
He used the Daluo Sect's "Heaven Seal Skill," where a Void Thought became a seal, as if carrying out divine punishment, locking away a person's thoughts.
With Qing Yu's level of cultivation executing this spell, even martial artists at the Peak of the Tao Foundation Stage would be affected. He only needed Li Fei's thought processes to halt for an instant to decapitate him with the flying sword!
Almost at the same moment as the spell struck Li Fei, the blue sword light reached Li Fei's front.
Li Fei did not pause at all, as if he had foreseen it, he raised the Ghost Slash Blade in defense and simultaneously deployed "Overlord Body," his body beginning to swell.
Clang—
The tip of the sword just managed to strike the blade of the Ghost Slash Blade, forcing Li Fei back, while a torrent-like Sword Qi surged from the sword, shattering Li Fei's Mixed Element Star Armor and battering his body!
Li Fei's white martial robe was torn by the Sword Qi, revealing the Cloud Dream Gold Thread Robe underneath.
Even after passing through the Mixed Element Star Armor, the Cloud Dream Gold Thread Robe, and the Overlord Body's triple damage reduction, this strike cost Li Fei 47 Blood Souls!
In terms of defensive power, Li Fei was already stronger than many Peak Tao Foundation Stage martial artists. If it had been a Peak Tao Foundation Stage martial artist who wasn't skilled in defense, that one strike would have inflicted serious damage.
Such was the killing power of a sword cultivator!
"Hmm?"
Qing Yu, the True Master, was taken aback that Li Fei had managed to block his sword attack.
Meanwhile, two Tao Foundation Stage Martial Artists not far away rushed towards them, launching long-distance force attacks at the car.
The car was still moving forward, a Jade Ruyi flew out of the window, hovering above the car roof, and formed a faint cyan protective shield, enveloping the entire vehicle.
Although a Sword Cultivator, Qing Yu, the True Master, had also crafted other magic artifacts.
The Flying Sword was for offense, while this Jade Ruyi was for defense.
The faint cyan protective shield blocked the force attacks of the two Tao Foundation Stage Martial Artists, while the deep blue Flying Sword transformed into dozens of blades, stabbing at Li Fei from all directions!
Li Fei was completely unaffected by the illusion technique, turning around in advance and, like a seer, accurately predicting the real trajectory of the Flying Sword, swinging his blade to strike the actual flying sword.
Clang!!!
The cement ground beneath his feet indented downward like tofu, cracked, and he was pressed down by a tremendous force.
A torrential Sword Qi washed over him, piercing hundreds of tiny holes in the ground!
Qing Yu, the True Master, furrowed his brows.
The first sword strike not killing Li Fei was an accident.
He had been serious with the second sword strike, yet Li Fei still managed to block it?
Qing Yu, the True Master, made a sword technique formation with one hand.
The Flying Sword above Li Fei's head suddenly emitted a roaring sound, like the muffled thunder before a storm.
The air around it suddenly became moist, filled with a large amount of water vapor.
Immediately after, a deluge poured down, covering a three-meter radius around Li Fei!
This torrential downpour was not an illusion formed by Void Thought, but real rainwater condensed from the water vapor by Qing Yu, the True Master, using his True Power.
The rainwater not only mingled with a lot of Sword Qi, but also carried a chill that could freeze a person's spirit and soul.
Even if one could withstand the impact of Sword Qi, their mind would gradually be frozen.
This was a unique Divine Skill of Qing Yu, the True Master's Lifebound Flying Sword—Ice God!
The biggest difference between a magic artifact and a Lifebound Magic Item was that the latter possessed unique Divine Skills.
Before the rain could fall, a crimson Vajra Dharma Form, several meters tall, emerged from the pit in the ground.
Tao Power—Red Sound Fire Vajra Phase!
As soon as the Vajra Form appeared, its flames were extinguished by the rain, and its body was pierced with countless holes by the Sword Qi.
Barely holding on for less than three seconds in the torrential Sword Qi, the Vajra Dharma Form completely shattered!
The pit where Li Fei stood grew deeper, burying him entirely.
As Qing Yu, the True Master, poured all his killing intent onto Li Fei, ten people rushed out of the nearby woods.
Lv Wenxing and two other Tao Foundation Stage Sitting Officials, as well as seven of Li Fei's clones, together launched an assault!
These ten people, together with two Sitting Officials approaching from the front, jointly attacked the faint cyan protective shield outside the car.
As Qing Yu, the True Master inside the car was about to control the Flying Sword to strike at these people along with it, an invisible force like a heavy hammer suddenly struck his Flying Sword with a heavy blow!
From within the pit, Li Fei spent 69 Blood Souls to deploy [Blood Power], the current limit of his [Blood Power].
Then, he mixed in his own Mind Power to deploy [Blood Power God], attacking the Flying Sword in the sky.
If it were just a magic attack, Qing Yu, the True Master's Flying Sword could easily block it.
However, because this move combined Magic and Martial Arts, it created an unexpected effect!
The Flying Sword was affected and couldn't attack Lv Wenxing and the others in time.
Five Tao Foundation Stage individuals, along with the seven clones, simultaneously hit the faint cyan protective shield.
The seven clones, all created secretly by Li Fei in the 'Blood Demon State' using 25 Blood Souls each and then supplemented with the Vajra Seal·Dragon Elephant, possessed astonishing strength!
Crack—
The protective shield shattered!
Several force strikes subsequently hit the car.
The steel body of the car was as fragile as thin paper under these high-level force attacks, instantly deforming and bursting apart.
"You're courting death!!!"
The furious voice of Qing Yu, the True Master, emerged from inside the car.
