Chapter 69

~9 min read 1,704 words

Li Yingqiong escaped a disaster with the help of a strange treasure, but saw that the "Peach Capital" sword was quite intimate with that stubborn Daoist, which was harder for her to accept than falling into the mud pool just now.

Heaven knows how much suffering she, Li Yingqiong, endured to drive this "Peach Capital" sword!

Using her hands to grab it, it burned her skin and scalded her blood; using mindfulness to raise it, it was like charcoal in her throat. Like this, operating it was still not enough. If she used ten points of mindfulness, it would be excellent if the flying sword could respond with five points. There were even times when it stopped in the Purple Mansion and didn't move at all.

Why does this stubborn Daoist deserve it?

Why would Peach Capital be close to him?

And on the other side, after "Peach Capital" circled the Daoist several times, it restrained all its fire and fell into Cheng Yunqi's arms, letting Li Yingqiong use her mindfulness, it didn't move a bit.

And the young Daoist looked down at "Peach Capital" on his knees. At this moment, "Peach Capital" restrained its fire and brilliance, revealing its true appearance. Cheng Yunqi fell in love at first sight, only feeling it was wonderful. How could there be such a beautiful sword in the world?

This was a sword completely different from "Autumn Water."

This sword looked like the standard of the Warring States period of the Pre-Qin Dynasty at a glance. The most obvious thing was that the sword body was wide, basically the same width as the sword guard.

The sword guard, sword stem, and sword head should be of the same material, showing a green-black color, like some kind of mysterious iron, six inches long.

And the sword body was cinnabar red, like copper but not copper, like jade but not jade, three feet eight inches long, with straight and smooth lines. The sword spine protruded in a straight line, with distinct edges and corners, slanted and wide, and when it reached the blade, it was extremely sharp.

The upper half of the sword body was the same width as the sword guard. Near the sword guard, two characters were engraved, "Peach Capital." From the sword guard down, the sword body was the same width. About one-third of the way down the sword body, the sword body narrowed slightly, with a beautiful arc, and then narrowed into a sword tip, like the shape of a willow leaf tip.

This should be a flying sword.

Cheng Yunqi thought so. A flying sword naturally does not need a sword guard. The flying sword body is wide and sharp, so the lethality is naturally amazing.

He reached out to take the sword. It felt very warm to the touch, like a piece of warm jade. He tried to lift it, but it was much lighter than he imagined.

"You put down 'Peach Capital'!"

Li Yingqiong saw Cheng Yunqi holding Peach Capital and was not backlashed. She couldn't accept it in her heart and shouted for Cheng Yunqi to let go.

A brilliance flashed on her hand, and she changed into a white short arrow that looked like bone and tooth texture, throwing it fiercely toward Cheng Yunqi.

Cheng Yunqi guessed that it should also be a type of talisman arrow, so he dropped his mindfulness onto "Peach Capital." It was still that kind of warm feeling, like the warm sun in winter, like a bonfire in the cold night.

There was also an intent on the sword. This intent was very active. Sensing that Cheng Yunqi had dropped his mindfulness here, it immediately leaned over. The feeling it gave Cheng Yunqi was like, like Bai Gou?

He communicated with that intent, could the treasure sword rise?

So "Peach Capital" slowly left Cheng Yunqi's arms and floated into mid-air.

Cheng Yunqi smiled. He looked at the stunned Li Yingqiong.

"Go!"

He said softly.

"Peach Capital" was like receiving an order, turning into a fire light, and disappeared in place in an instant.

"Boom!"

A loud noise, accompanied by fire and thunder.

"Peach Capital" intercepted the white bone talisman arrow, and thunder and fire burst out in the talisman arrow, but it was unknown how many times more powerful it was than the talisman arrows Cheng Yunqi made.

Cheng Yunqi recalled "Peach Capital." There were no scars on the sword, and the thunder and fire only made the flying sword more dazzling.

"Can carrying this treasure out be called training?"

Cheng Yunqi shook his head gently.

He looked at Li Yingqiong and recited, "Go!"

The flying sword ran toward Li Yingqiong without the slightest pause.

Li Yingqiong's pretty face turned pale, she closed her eyes, and held tightly the cold jade she had just taken out to avoid fire.

"Ding!" Another crisp sound.

Li Yingqiong waited for a while and found nothing happened, so she slowly opened her eyes, only to see the cold jade in her hand emitting a clear blue light, forming a bubble-like protective shield around her, with water-like light patterns flowing on it.

And "Peach Capital" returned without success, returning to Cheng Yunqi's side.

"Hahahaha—"

Li Yingqiong suddenly laughed loudly, then looked at Cheng Yunqi fiercely,

"Stubborn Daoist! I have the 'Ten Thousand Year Cold Jade' gifted by my master's wife! How can your gold fire and your flying sword hurt me! And 'Peach Capital', this thing that betrayed its master! How can it compare to my 'Ten Thousand Year Cold Jade'?!"

Cheng Yunqi shook his head. "Peach Capital" couldn't pierce the "Ten Thousand Year Cold Jade" now, which was naturally not a problem with the flying sword, but just that his own realm was not enough. The "Ten Thousand Year Cold Jade" was certainly powerful, but it was definitely not because Li Yingqiong's realm was profound. Thinking about it, it must have been that the master's wife had injected magic power in advance.

Cheng Yunqi shook his head even more, not understanding. With attack and defense treasures like "Peach Capital" and "Ten Thousand Year Cold Jade," what is this Li Yingqiong doing going down the mountain instead of chanting scriptures in Emei? Is it to kill demons and crooked ways? Then just let the sword go down the mountain, why bring a person?

But now Cheng Yunqi was not afraid of her, stood up leisurely, and was about to leave.

"Where are you going!?"

Li Yingqiong shouted again.

=9+Book_Bar

Cheng Yunqi felt strange, "Naturally, I want to leave this peach miasma land. Why, can you stop me?"

Li Yingqiong choked. Although she still had some treasures, those things probably couldn't destroy "Peach Capital"...

"Stubborn Daoist, you leave 'Peach Capital' behind, and I can not kill you, letting you leave. Otherwise, if my master knows, even if you escape to the ends of the earth today, you won't be able to escape his old man's palm!"

The girl changed her rhetoric.

But Cheng Yunqi seemed not to have heard, leaving on his own, and "Peach Capital" followed closely, not leaving an inch.

Leaving the girl stomping her feet and cursing in place.

But before Cheng Yunqi walked ten steps, suddenly there was another loud *boom*. The sound was so loud that it was like a giant hammer hitting his heart aperture, shaking his internal organs into a mess. He immediately fell to the ground and looked back at Li Yingqiong.

But the girl also fell to the ground, not because of her. And it seemed that the "Ten Thousand Year Cold Jade" couldn't prevent this either. The girl was rolling on the ground holding her head in pain.

Before Cheng Yunqi could think, the ground suddenly began to shake violently, as if he had arrived on the sea!

He endured the pain and wanted to ride the clouds to leave, but at this time a large mouth suddenly cracked open under his feet. Before he could react, he fell in instantly!

And Li Yingqiong on the other side also failed to escape. The ground seemed to have become a piece of floating ice on the water, shaking randomly with the waves. She was thrown out by the shaking ground and also fell into a bottomless hole.

And if someone passed by in the sky at this time, they would definitely stop their cloud carriage and take a look at this rare sight that only happens once in a thousand years!

It turns out that Rantao Mountain has high terrain on all four sides and low in the middle. In the past, the fallen peaches all gathered in the middle. The terrain here is low and swampy, and it is also a place where moisture accumulates, which also gave birth to the rare miasma poison of peach mud miasma.

However, a thousand years have passed, the mud miasma has piled up layer by layer, and the toxicity has become greater and greater. And the bottom layer of mud miasma slowly seeped underground. In this way, peaches rolled down year after year, and mud miasma continued to sink. By the time it reached the ground, it actually connected with the Southern Wilderness ground fire!

Who doesn't know that the Southern Wilderness ground fire is abundant, but no one expected that a fire cave was hidden under this hundred-acre lush peach forest!

The ground fire was entangled with the mud miasma, and the mud miasma was tempered by the ground fire. After a long time, it actually became a kind of Earth Sha energy! This evil spirit raged and actually hollowed out the land under Rantao Mountain!

Now that it happened to be raining incessantly, the low-lying middle of Rantao Mountain almost became a large swamp, but how could this thin layer of skin under Rantao Mountain carry a large swamp?

So with a *boom*, the land of Rantao Mountain broke, the swamp poured into the ground cave, and the Earth Sha energy surged out, rushing straight into the sky.

This evil spirit was formed by the entanglement of peach miasma and ground fire, as beautiful as peach blossoms, and also had fire brilliance. It was truly incomparably beautiful, with thousands of auspicious colors.
