Volume 13: Sword Immortal Chapter 54 Official Announcement
Forever and ever.
The boundless clouds draw billions of lines.
The image of the goddess Luoshen floats in the air, and a clear trajectory is reflected in her deep and sharp eyes that are like those of a god.
There was no water in the void, but the feet of the Luoshen Dharma Image created circles of ripples, distorting the space.
She kept moving forward along the track.
All the scenery along the way was flying backwards.
Only from behind, two figures were chasing relentlessly.
Those are the remaining two members of the Soldier Demon Clan.
War Lord and Red Lord.
Their aura was condensed, and even the mighty breeze seemed to be frightened and stopped flowing.
Chi Zun had a blank expression on his face, as if he had recovered from the shock of Ming Zun's death.
He summoned up his own strength, kicked his foot in the air, leaped high, and sped up suddenly, dragging the red halberd in his hand, attacking the Dharma image of the Goddess Luo in front of him.
Due to the extremely fast speed, the red halberd's body rubbed violently with the air, producing sparks, which drew a flame tail of more than two thousand feet in the sky, and then smashed hard at the statue of the goddess Luo.
The red halberd made a loud roar, louder than the thunder in summer, and it caused explosions wherever it passed.
On the right shoulder of the Luoshen statue, there is a woman standing proudly.
A blue dress fluttering in the wind.
She was indifferent to the red halberd that was thrown at her, and just controlled the image of the goddess Luoshen to continue moving forward.
However, there was a faint layer of ripples flowing on the body of the Dharmakāya.
Mirror image.
The tip of the red halberd hit the waist of the Luoshen Dharmakāya, but it was like a punch hitting cotton, nothing was hit. The red halberd did not encounter any obstruction and sank straight in.
With the tip of the red halberd as the center, a magnificent splash of water suddenly bloomed on the image of the goddess Luoshen.
It seemed as if the target of Chi Zun's attack at this moment was not a Dharma image, but a quiet lake.
After the move was completed, the image of the goddess Luoshen was not affected or disturbed in any way.
However, a moment later, the green robe on the right shoulder of the Dharma image stood proudly, and blood oozed faintly from the corner of his mouth.
When the first move failed, Chi Zun didn't have time to think about it. He drew out the red halberd and swung it out in the air again.
Bang!
An endless curtain of demonic energy surged out, sweeping towards the image of the goddess Luo in front.
There was another loud bang.
This time, the immense and endless momentum caused the steps of the Goddess Luo to stagger for a moment.
The image of the Goddess of Luo River is no longer as solid, and its color has become somewhat dim.
However, like the wild grass on the wilderness plain, it grows again in the spring breeze.
Strands of sword energy flowed out from Xia Daoyuan's body and then attached themselves to the Dharma image.
Then the dim color began to shine again, and then Luoshen Dharmakāya took another step forward, leaving Chi Zun far behind again.
Chi Zun's eyes were bloodshot.
This scene before my eyes was not the first time it had happened.
Could it be that this woman is really the reincarnation of the goddess Luoshen, so she can't be killed no matter what?
But no matter how much he thought about it, Chi Zun could not give up his pursuit at the moment.
He knew clearly that if he could keep Xia Daoyuan and Lu Qingshan today, this war would be over ahead of schedule.
The two looked at each other, and the next moment their figures flashed away, like an arrow shot from a bow, suddenly splitting the sky and rapidly crashing into the image of the goddess Luoshen.
The speed was so fast that it became an illusion. The gust of air alone turned all the creatures in its path into blood mist, leaving them no chance to witness the ultimate battle between the Taoists and the Demons.
…
The two started a brutal and endless pursuit.
From night to day, and from day to night, there was still no result.
As they were about to approach the brightly lit pass, the man and woman, whose faces were as pale as gold paper in the image of the goddess of Luo River, couldn't help but twitch their lips, and their smiles were forced and difficult.
"Go home." Lu Qingshan said with a smile.
Xia Daoyun closed her eyes slightly, nodded slightly in response, and did not speak.
First, he fought a fierce battle with Chi Zun, from Yumen Pass all the way to the outside of .
Then he was trapped in the world of Cang Hai, facing the siege of the three masters and being attacked from all sides.
He had just jumped out of the vast ocean when he experienced a life-threatening fight in the sea of calamity.
In the end, he had to flee for a whole day without a moment's rest under the relentless pursuit of the two.
During her escape, she tried her best to shake off the two figures, but they always followed her like a shadow and chased her relentlessly. If she did not have the blood of the Taoist Ancestor and could draw strength from it, she might not have been able to bring Lu Qingshan here.
Another half a quarter of an hour passed.
The surging demon army in the distance has come into view.
This is the last level.
Lu Qingshan looked at the endless demonic tide and barely managed to restore some of the magic power in his body.
"Take a break. Leave the last part of the journey to me."
Xia Daoyun nodded coldly.
Immediately, the huge image of the Goddess of Luo River shattered like foam, merged into the void and disappeared.
Xia Daoyun's body was staggering, but before she could muster any strength, she was hugged tightly in his arms, and Lu Qingshan's voice came to her ears.
"This is the last time."
…
Yu Canghai was gazing outside the city, presiding over the battle situation, and coordinating the arrangements of the monks at Yumen Pass. Suddenly, he discovered that there was a little more light in the rolling black demonic energy.
It is very small and dim, but it is constantly expanding.
What is that?
However, the fierce battle situation made him unable to think too much.
Until a moment later, the light became so bright that he could no longer ignore it.
This time, he could already see the essence of the light.
Extraordinarily kind and familiar.
Sword light.
Lu Qingshan's sword light.
When the sword light flashed again and expanded once again, it had already broken through the sky filled with evil cultivators and full of malice, dragging its long tail, like a huge meteor, flying towards Yumen Pass.
Everyone on the Yumen Pass city wall was horrified.
Most of them are at a level where they cannot see the human figures through the sword light.
But Yu Canghai can, and can make timely arrangements.
"It's the Sect Master!"
Then, the Changfeng Formation that was guarding Yumen Pass flickered and accepted the sword light like water waves.
…
On the crowded and noisy Yumen Pass city wall, a man and a woman fell in full view of everyone.
But the posture of the man and woman was a little strange. The man hugged the woman, and the woman half leaned in the man's arms. Both of them looked bad and pale.
It doesn't look like an uncommon posture, so why is it weird?
There is no other reason, the identities of this man and woman are extraordinary.
Luoshen Sword Immortal, leader of the Sword Sect.
Former master and apprentice.
Now, they are more like a pair of Taoist lovers.
"Sect Master, Master Xia Feng," Yu Canghai came over. Seeing the two of them like this, he couldn't help but sigh and said in a hoarse voice, "It's good that you're back."
Lu Qingshan covered his chest, slowed down the energy that was disturbed by the charge, and apologized, "I'm sorry to have made you worry."
Yu Canghai was about to say something when a middle-aged man with an elegant appearance spoke first: "Sect Master Lu, I can understand that you Sword Sect cultivators value friendship, but your status is different. You are the master of the Sword Sect and the master of Yumen Pass. A son of a wealthy family should not sit in the hall. If you rashly leave the seclusion, you will not only risk your own life, but also the future of Yumen Pass and the Eastern Region!"
Yu Canghai could understand Lu Qingshan's decision to come out of seclusion, but that didn't mean other people could understand it.
All the monks in Yumen Pass believed that Lu Qingshan had a responsibility to the Eastern Region, because everyone believed that in the near future, Lu Qingshan would become a sword immortal.
Therefore, no one wants to see Lu Qingshan's death.
"War is cruel, and we must give up something. We are lucky this time that both of you are back, but if we are unlucky, we at Yumen Pass would have lost a sword immortal and a future sword immortal! Sect Master Lu, you should not be too concerned about love affairs in war." The man who "accused" Lu Qingshan was one of several ninth-level cultivators in Yumen Pass. He had an extraordinary status, so he had the courage to speak out.
He is just a representative. It is conceivable that there must be many monks in Yumen Pass who hold the same idea.
Do these people have malicious intent?
Of course not.
On the contrary, they were determined in their hearts that if the Changfeng Formation was broken, they would be ready to die and return together with Yumen Pass.
But even among people in the same camp, their ideas and concepts can never be unified and there will inevitably be differences.
Lu Qingshan could understand their thoughts.
But understanding does not mean agreement.
"I am the leader of the Sword Sect and the lord of Yumen Pass, but I am even more so Lu Qingshan."
"Guarding Yumen Pass is what the Sword Sect leader wants to do, but leaving the pass is what I want to do."
"Lu Qingshan will naturally do what Lu Qingshan wants to do."
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.
After everyone was silent for a moment, Lu Qingshan looked around at everyone and said as if to himself : "If I can't protect my woman today, what do you think I can protect after I become a sword immortal?"
Everyone looked up in surprise, staring at the couple in front of them with wide eyes.
Even Yu Canghai did the same thing.
They were shocked by the passion in Lu Qingshan's words, and even more shocked by the four profound words in the words.
"My woman".
Xia Daoyun smiled, it was impossible for her to deny it.
She was very calm about the "accusations" from others.
She would never say something stupid to Lu Qingshan like "You've narrowly escaped death and you must never take the risk of saving her again next time."
If he was in trouble, she would definitely not hesitate.
So how could she stop the other party from going forward without hesitation?
For them, "living and dying together" has long been a matter of course.
"You are master and disciple..." the ninth-level cultivator who "accused" Lu Qingshan of coming out of seclusion said subconsciously.
"What does it matter?" Lu Qingshan said with a smile.
Not to mention that he has already become a master, even if he hasn’t, so what?
What master-disciple relationship, what status, what the world's eyes are, as long as you are willing, as long as you like, you can discard them all.
Xia Daoyun also smiled, and looked at the profile of the man beside her with a smile in her eyes.
As she laughed, her face turned pale and she quickly stretched out a hand and pressed it on her mouth, but the scarlet blood still seeped out from between her fingers.
During the second half of the journey, Xia Daoyun did not speak again.
This is why.
After reaching the realm of Sword Immortal that sword cultivators dream of, Xia Daoyun had yet to consolidate his realm when he faced two powerful enemies, the incarnation of Rāhu and the Three Venerables. It can be said that when Lu Qingshan was not yet able to truly shoulder the responsibility of ruling the region, he single-handedly helped him hold up the situation.
However, this is a morbid situation.
To gain something, one must give up something. Whether it was giving up the Eight Tribulations Realm in order to reach the Sword Immortal Realm as soon as possible, or forcibly drawing on one's own luck in order to fight a powerful enemy, Xia Daoyun was squandering his potential.
Her stunning beauty did not diminish in the slightest because of her current bad complexion. Instead, it added a rare touch of fragility, making her look like a lotus in the rain, extremely gentle.
The man next to him had the same bleak expression but an unconcealable handsome face.
Thus, the same thought occurred to everyone in the field at the same time.
Where else can you find this pair of people except right in front of you?
