Chapter 1041: Single Blade to the Meeting!

The Spirit Martial Emperor's position has appeared!

Azure Abyss Emperor flicked his sleeve, and a star chart instantly appeared before him; stars glittered, each emitting a fluctuation. He pointed with his big hand among them, quickly circling a vast expanse of starry sky near Upside-down Mountain.

Sun Qinghou and the others gathered around, asking, "Your Majesty, is the Spirit Martial Emperor somewhere in this starry sky?"

Azure Abyss Emperor said, "Right here! Only a few Dao Origin Fruits appear in this starry sky; let me see where the Spirit Martial Emperor is hiding!"

The sound fell!

Azure Abyss Emperor directly summoned his Dharma Aspect.

Boom!

An immeasurably huge figure appeared between heaven and earth; his dragon robe slightly billowed, and with every gesture, the will of Azure Abyss Heaven rumbled like a great war drum, striking heaven and earth.

Thump thump thump!

In the region of the Eastern Starry Sky Border, all beings were stunned.

They felt as if stared down by a ferocious beast!

It was as if someone had seized their throats, holding power over life and death!

Countless beings raised their heads to see a towering gilded Dharma Aspect standing in the starry sky, stepping toward Upside-down Mountain; each step crossed millions of li of starry sky, his surroundings blazing like a great sun, dazzlingly brilliant.

The aura of the Nine Turns One Heart Seeking Death Gu transformed into a golden ocean, continuously flowing.

Overwhelming pressure poured forth like a vast sea; the forces engaged in slaughter instantly halted their actions, shouting, "Azure Abyss Emperor!"

Azure Abyss Emperor's divine sense swept the starry sky, naturally also discovering the slaughter occurring at the starry sky border, but his heart remained calm, showing no reaction.

His divine sense withdrew, and the great powers frowned, asking, "What does the Azure Abyss Emperor mean?"

Someone said, "Let us continue slaughtering the stars! Otherwise he will stop us!"

The great powers continued slaughtering the stars!

Even more frenzied!

At this moment, Azure Abyss Emperor's divine sense shot like an arrow toward the starry sky where Upside-down Mountain lies; his Dharma Aspect continually drew power from Azure Abyss Heaven, mighty divine power flowing endlessly, as he repeatedly inspected several places where Dao Origin Fruits had matured.

Not here!

Not here either!

……

Soon after, Azure Abyss Emperor's mouth curled into a cold smile as he locked onto Upside-down Mountain: "It turns out to be here!"

His divine sense swept over Upside-down Mountain, and he coldly said, "Spirit Martial Emperor, long time no see! Do you want me to invite you out?"

Yang Ling'er raised her head to look at the summit of Upside-down Mountain; Azure Abyss Emperor's voice thundered like lightning, his might overwhelming.

Suddenly, a domineering voice appeared.

Do not hurt my lord!

As that voice appeared, a terrifying blade intent surged forth like a vast sea, turning heaven and earth a blank white, fiercely clashing with Azure Abyss Emperor's golden radiance.

Before the person even appeared, Azure Abyss Heaven was torn apart by the terrifying blade qi, the heavens shattered countless times.

Yang Ling'er's beautiful eyes shifted as she said, "General Qi Chun Jing has arrived!"

Boom!

Crack!

Void Rending!

Space twisted!

Before Upside-down Mountain appeared a superior spatial dao pattern, rings of brilliant array patterns surging; in the next instant, Qi Chun Jing donned heavy armor, wielding a Li Zhu blade, his blade intent bursting forth like great rivers striking heaven and earth.

Overwhelming domineering aura!

Azure Abyss Heaven's will was forcibly seized; beneath Qi Chun Jing's feet a white blade domain appeared, vast blade qi shooting out incessantly, thick and dense, wherever the blade qi reached, the lord drifted.

Everyone was shocked; to protect the Spirit Martial Emperor, Qi Chun Jing actually descended this time!

This might be a fierce battle.

Azure Abyss Emperor stared fixedly at Qi Chun Jing's back, deeply resentful.

This is clearly his Azure Abyss Heaven, yet people from Endless Heaven can stroll in so leisurely; it seems the dao patterns laid by the Spirit Martial Emperor at his peak still function.

This gave him a strong sense of crisis, the chill in his eyes growing ever stronger!

Azure Abyss Emperor coldly laughed, "Qi Chun Jing, how dare the Endless Heaven Army step into my sovereign's land; all who come shall die!"

Qi Chun Jing stood with blade horizontal, eyes shining like stars, blade qi crisscrossing; he directly ignored Azure Abyss Emperor, extending his divine sense into Upside-down Mountain, where he saw Lu Xuan's white-robed back.

His body trembled slightly.

His heart silently called, "Venerable Lord Lu!"

After endless ages, he finally saw Venerable Lord Lu again.

He once remembered that when Venerable Lord Lu presided over Endless Heaven, he was merely a child.

At that time, he was noticed by Venerable Lord Lu.

He carried a satchel containing several books: the Great Learning, the Doctrine of the Mean, the Classic of Poetry...

He loved reading, seeming out of place throughout Endless Heaven.

Endless Heaven had few academies.

Because academies cultivate a grand righteous spirit, it's hard to take them to the battlefield to slay enemies!

Back then, the Spirit Martial Emperor ruled Endless Heaven, year after year leading his forces and the Strange Palace to slaughter in Gu Origin Heaven; all of Endless Heaven esteemed martial arts.

But when he asked Venerable Lord Lu, the latter smiled and said, "Just be yourself."

Venerable Lord Lu was quite refined, and he also lectured him on several chapters of the Classic of Poetry.

He especially remembered that Venerable Lord Lu enjoyed reciting poetry.

It was quite distinctive.

A line of migrating geese flies south, two roasted ducks walk north.

In spring sleep, one does not notice dawn; everywhere mosquitoes bite.

Wind and snow press on me for two or three years; added together, that's five years.

……

You still remember how Lord Lu was warm and gentle like jade, his bearing that of a gentleman.

Memories surged like a reverse-flowing river, making Qi Chun Jing unable to help but feel moved.

Just a silhouette, his eye sockets were almost a little moist.

And then, the Azure Abyss Emperor had already stepped through the void, the Azure Abyss Heaven's will surging on him, he coldly laughed and said, 'How? Qi Chun Jing, today you dare to set foot alone in my Azure Abyss Heaven!!'

Qi Chun Jing withdrew his gaze, the great blade clanged, 'What's not possible!!'

The great blade lay across, its aura vast and desolate!

Going to the meeting with a single blade!

The sound shakes the vast sky!

'Hahaha! Qi Chun Jing, in our previous battle, that was on the territory of Endless Heaven; I did not have my fill! Today, in my domain, you will surely die!'

The Azure Abyss Emperor's manic laughter echoed through heaven and earth; in the dark expanse, golden divine radiance fell like a great sun, supremely fervent, amidst endless brilliance, the Azure Abyss Emperor Huang Zheng, wearing a dragon robe, his dharma body descended.

In his palm he held the Nine-Revolution One-Heart Seeking-Death poisonous insect; his whole body bathed in the golden divine radiance, the Gu aura on his body far richer than before.

Behind him, numerous cloud vessels of the Azure Abyss Army tore through the void and came.

On the cloud vessels, Bai Loulan, Heze Zhanglao, and others were extremely excited.

This is Azure Abyss Heaven; the Azure Abyss Emperor can command the Azure Abyss Heaven's will, and with the support of the Nine-Revolution poisonous insects, perhaps he can slay Qi Chun Jing.

As long as Qi Chun Jing cannot defeat the Azure Abyss Emperor, they can capture the Spirit Martial Emperor, thereby forcing Lord Lu to ascend to the upper realm!

From now on, forever free of trouble!

The authority of the World Tree will be controlled by them!

The people of the Guile Palace and the Gu Yuan Heaven were somewhat excited.

This battle could perhaps rewrite the pattern of the entire Endless Heaven!

In the next instant, the Azure Abyss Emperor strode forward, flicked his sleeve, and said, 'Retreat!'
