Chapter 530: Swallowing Heaven and Earth
Black flames ignited all over Ying Hua Jie's body, and his falling cultivation base surged back crazily!
A figure flew in from afar, carrying a monstrous aura.
"Huyan Hetai?"
Li Fei recognized the newcomer as Huyan Hetai, whom he had slashed away with a single blade strike earlier.
At this moment, not only had Huyan Hetai's injuries healed, but his aura was far beyond what it had been before!
A powerful sense of oppression descended, covering the sky and earth, causing Li Fei to pause in surprise.
He sensed a strong danger from the other party—a feeling that even Ying Hua Jie had never brought him!
"How is this possible?"
Ying Hua Jie was more astonished than anyone else.
The black flames rising from his body were clearly the power of Huyan Hetai's Martial Dao Domain, but before these black flames erupted, he had been completely unaware of such power lurking within his own body.
As a Grandmaster at the peak of the Establishing Dao Realm, about to charge toward the Martial Saint Realm, how could he have been unaware of power hidden inside him by someone else?
This made Ying Hua Jie feel horrified!
Ying Hua Jie tried to shake off the black flames on his body, but his consumption from the battle with Li Fei had already been immense, and the backlash from his failed breakthrough had left him severely wounded and on the verge of death.
In this state, he had no way to shake off the control of the black flames.
These black flames devoured the surrounding Heaven and Earth Qi at a terrifying speed, while simultaneously reigniting Ying Hua Jie's "Essence, Qi, and Spirit."
Boom—
A sound like mountain ranges flying past rapidly echoed between heaven and earth; a vortex with a diameter of over a hundred meters formed around Ying Hua Jie, with wild winds raging!
Li Fei felt a chill in his heart.
The speed at which the other party was absorbing Heaven and Earth Qi was several times faster than when he fully activated the 【Great Void Golden Palace】!
If Ying Hua Jie fought Li Fei again in this state, the 【Great Void Golden Palace】 would simply not be able to "compete" with the other party, and in the end, he would definitely be the one to exhaust his internal energy first.
At this time, Huyan Hetai had already flown near the two.
His expression and temperament were like a different person compared to before.
The previous Huyan Hetai was solemn as a mountain, masculine and violent, but now he wore a smile on his face, yet his eyes were icy cold.
Half was an iceberg, half was a flame.
"You are not Huyan Hetai! Who are you?"
Ying Hua Jie looked at the flying Huyan Hetai and asked sternly.
Huyan Hetai ignored him and instead looked at Li Fei with great interest:
"Number one in history? A bit interesting; I almost let you ruin my good deed."
Li Fei turned to face this person, secretly on guard, ready to continue pouring more Blood Souls into the 【Sword Sacrifice】 at any moment.
The Grandmasters on the summit of Mount Mount Tiansha also realized that something was wrong, but none had any intention of rashly intervening.
Standing beside Zhu Zhu Fenghua, Zhao Xin, a Grandmaster-level guest of the Lin Tianyi Tower, stared fixedly at the figure in the air, always feeling a sense of inexplicable familiarity.
Suddenly, he thought of something, and his expression changed drastically:
"You are Li Ming?!"
A cold feeling surged from the bottom of his heart, and memories crossed a hundred years of time, appearing in Zhao Xin's mind once again:
That was the second year of Emperor Jiawen, when he had not yet entered the Imperial Guard and was serving as a helmsman in the Zhige Department of Donghe Province.
That year, a major event happened in Donghe Province—
The top Jianghu sect, the Red Flame Sect, was exterminated!
If the strength of the Red Flame Sect were placed today, it would definitely rank at the level of the "Three Mountains," and its Sect Master, like Ying Hua Jie, was also a Grandmaster at the peak of the Establishing Dao Realm.
At first, unusual movements were detected within the city, and then Zhao Xin was ordered to lead men to the Red Flame Sect to investigate the situation.
By the time he arrived with his men, the sect's base had already turned into ruins!
A figure stood atop the ruins, surrounded by blood and corpses.
He turned his head to look at Zhao Xin and the others who had arrived.
Zhao Xin would never forget that person's eyes in his entire life!
Both crazy and indifferent, two extreme emotions existed simultaneously in the other party's eyes.
Then that person gave Zhao Xin a smile, and in front of everyone, his aura soared as he broke through to become a Saint!
After that day, there was one more demon in the world!
In the air, Huyan Hetai turned his head to look at Zhao Xin on the mountain terrace:
"Oh? Have you seen me before?"
He admitted his identity.
"Li Ming?!"
On the summit of Mount Mount Tiansha, the crowd exploded.
All the Grandmasters changed color!
One of the Three Demons, the peerless demon who broke through to become a Martial Saint as a demonic martial artist—Li Ming!
A chill surged in Zhao Xin's heart; after Li Ming broke through that day, he did not start a massacre and left directly.
That was why he and his colleagues had saved their lives.
It was normal for the other party not to remember him; after all, a hundred years ago, he was merely a martial artist at the Dao Foundation stage.
Zhao Xin recalled more details.
It was rumored that the Sect Master of the Red Flame Sect back then also had the opportunity to break through to become a Saint.
Today, the Mount Mount Tiansha Master, Ying Hua Jie, was also seeking to break through to become a Saint.
Was it because both were related to breaking through that Li Ming was drawn here?
"Since you recognize me, while I'm still in a good mood, all of you get lost quickly."
Huyan Hetai, or rather Li Ming, said with a look of disdain.
On the mountain terrace, the Grandmasters looked at each other, already harboring thoughts of retreat.
Among the Three Demons, compared to the other two who killed like hemp and were full of evil, Li Ming was considered the relatively "gentle" one.
The other party was not so bloodthirsty; his most shocking record was exterminating the Red Flame Sect a hundred years ago.
Over the past hundred years, after breaking through, he had rarely made a move.
But no matter what, this was still a demon!
Exterminating a top sect a hundred years ago, and now it seemed he had set his sights on Mount Mount Tiansha.
How could anyone dare to meddle in such a matter?
Some had already left the mountain quickly with their own people without a word.
The several Peak Masters and disciples of Mount Mount Tiansha all showed expressions of despair.
With a demon targeting their own sect, what could they use to resist?
In the air, Ying Hua Jie was equally desperate.
The first warrior of the Sakaze Temple was actually disguised by the demon Li Ming!
When did it start?
In that battle fifteen years ago, was he really fighting Huyan Hetai?
A demon had plotted for so long; today, were he and Mount Mount Tiansha going to follow in the footsteps of the Red Flame Sect?
"Everyone!"
On the mountain terrace, the Peak Master of Hidden Feather Peak, Kuang Chen, suddenly shouted sternly:
"When the lips are gone, the teeth are cold; if my Mount Mount Tiansha perishes at the hands of a demon today, are you not afraid that your own sects and families will suffer the same fate in the future?!"
These words caused many Grandmasters who had intended to withdraw to pause their actions.
Although Kuang Chen was so terrified that his body was trembling slightly, he still summoned the courage to shout loudly:
"With so many Grandmasters of the Central Plains Jianghu gathered here today, if we work together, we will definitely be able to repel the demon! In the future..."
"Noisy!"
In the air, Li Ming waved his hand, and a black flame tore through the sky, crashing toward the summit of Mount Mount Tiansha.
As this black flame flew, it devoured the surrounding Heaven and Earth Qi at an astonishing speed like a black hole, its momentum becoming increasingly shocking!
When the black flame approached the main peak of Mount Mount Tiansha, it was already like a mountain crashing down!
The Grandmasters leaped into the high sky one after another, staying away from the main peak.
The crowd on the mountain terrace also fled in all directions.
Kuang Chen stood where he was, tears flowing from his eyes.
Just as he was preparing to close his eyes and wait for death, a streak of white rainbow pierced through the black flame!
Boom—
The explosive roar was deafening, and the black flames exploded, setting off gusts of hurricane.
A golden figure stood in front of the main peak of Mount Mount Tiansha, holding a blade and standing tall.
Looking at this back, hope ignited in the eyes of Kuang Chen and many Mount Mount Tiansha disciples.
The one who made the move was none other than Li Fei!
Since he had already made the move, there was no longer any need to consider whether to regret it or not.
Li Fei decisively consumed 2,000 Blood Souls to invest in the 【Sword Sacrifice】 divine ability!
【Sword Sacrifice】 could significantly enhance sword Qi, sword intent, and sword momentum; placed on Li Fei, what it enhanced was the 【Hunyuan Sword World】, which was the battle armor on his body.
Not only could both offense and defense be enhanced, but the other divine abilities within the 【Hunyuan Sword World】 could also be enhanced to a certain extent.
The golden battle armor erupted with dazzling light once again, and Li Fei himself was like a small sun, his aura majestic!
Li Ming looked at this young man who dared to intercept his attack:
"Do you really think I don't dare to kill you?"
Li Fei looked at Li Ming calmly:
"This Marquis has fought more top experts than you; what are you pretending for in front of me?"
After Li Ming broke through, there had been no news of him fighting any top experts for a hundred years.
And looking at Li Fei, young and promising, first fighting Qiming, then fighting King Li, and finally helping to fight the Buddha of the current age...
He was indeed qualified to say this!
Killing intent appeared in Li Ming's eyes, and he stepped forward.
Boom—
Heaven and earth roared!
Streams of Heaven and Earth Qi turned into a torrent, crazily gathering here, squeezing toward the direction where Li Fei was.
Li Fei originally wanted to use the 【No Distance】 divine ability to dodge, but was surprised to find that all the spatial layers around him were filled with highly condensed Heaven and Earth Qi!
Previously, Li Fei's 【No Distance】 divine ability had been restricted, either suppressed by a Martial Dao Domain when his cultivation realm was low, or restrained by space-locking divine abilities.
This was the first time he had encountered someone who could restrict his 【No Distance】 with such simple and crude means!
Li Fei held the blade with both hands and slashed forward.
The imagery of the sun and moon wheels, the array of a thousand mountains, and the pouring of the heavenly river emerged, merging into one.
The newly mastered Creation-level ultimate technique—【Not Knowing the Height of Heaven】!
The power exchanged by cumulatively investing 3,000 Blood Souls to perform 【Sword Sacrifice】, plus the blessing of the "Ten Dragons and Ten Elephants," was Li Fei's strongest strike to date.
The firmament seemed to be collapsing downward, and then it was suddenly shattered by an iron fist!
The limit and height that were difficult for Ying Hua Jie to reach, Li Ming had already broken through a hundred years ago.
Top experts were all existences that had broken the limits of the world; how could they not know the height of heaven?
Li Fei's ultimate move was broken, and a fist burning with black flames appeared before his eyes, occupying his entire field of vision.
It was as if all the Heaven and Earth Qi in the world had been concentrated and compressed onto this fist!
The extremely heavy power caused the space to collapse inward, thereby generating a powerful suction force.
Bang!!!
Li Fei took the initiative to meet this fist like a moth to a flame; shadows of mountains and rivers were shattered, and finally, he was struck in the chest by the fist.
Previously, Ying Hua Jie had tried his best and used all means, only managing to leave cracks on Li Fei's battle armor; at this moment, Li Ming shattered the chest armor completely with one punch!
The golden figure tore through the air and was blasted backward.
"Hmm?"
Li Ming was somewhat surprised.
Although he didn't intend to kill with this punch, it should have at least broken Li Fei's Martial Dao Domain and caused him to temporarily lose his combat ability.
He didn't expect that only a piece of chest armor was shattered.
And Li Fei actually looked unscathed?
Li Fei, who had been blasted back over a thousand meters, activated 【No Distance】, and after a flicker, he stabilized his figure.
He looked down at the shattered chest armor and fully activated the two great divine abilities, 【Jingan】 and 【Refining Objects】, to repair it.
In his heart, he also had a rough estimate of the strength of this demon, Li Ming.
Back on the Baifeng Plain, he and six Grandmasters, along with the top True Person Mi Han, had joined forces to besiege "King Li" Qin Qin Mingli.
The result was that the other party had shattered seven Martial Dao Domains and the sword Qi of the top True Person with a single strike.
In the end, Li Fei had lost over 500 Blood Souls.
It was conceivable that if it were him alone facing Qin Qin Mingli, he would have lost half his life with a single strike!
At that time, facing a top expert, Li Fei was completely unable to fight.
But now, compared to when he was on the Baifeng Plain, both his offense and defense had been enhanced several times!
Just now, Li Ming first broke his 【Not Knowing the Height of Heaven】, then broke the national power protection brought by the 【Jingan】 divine ability and the battle armor condensed by the 【Hunyuan Sword World】, and finally caused him over 600 Blood Souls of damage.
Although the gap was still large, at least he could fight!
"Actually... blocked it?"
The Grandmasters looked on in astonishment.
If any of them had gone to block Li Ming's punch just now, they would already be dead!
And Li Fei looked like nothing had happened?
Even the battle armor transformed by the Martial Dao Domain was still there!
Even if Li Ming didn't use his full strength, this was still very incredible!
"Everyone—"
Li Fei said loudly, "If we let this person flatten Mount Mount Tiansha today, are you really not afraid that your own sects will be destroyed in the future?"
The same words, when spoken by Kuang Chen and when spoken by Li Fei, had completely different effects.
Especially after Li Fei blocked Li Ming's strike head-on.
"Well said, how can we tolerate this demon being rampant today?!"
A figure flew toward Li Fei's side.
It was Zhao Xin!
This former Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guard, now the Chief Guest of Lin Tianyi Tower, chose to help!
After he stood out, another person flew to Li Fei's side.
This person wore a Daoist robe and carried a long blade on his back, looking like an immortal with bones of wind and crane.
He was the Grandmaster of the Shangqing Sect, Xuan Feng!
Now that the Shangqing Sect and the Imperial Court were in a "honeymoon period," Xuan Feng naturally could not watch the Imperial Court's entrusted minister, the world-renowned Marquis of Jing'an, die in front of him.
Zhao Xin represented Lin Tianyi Tower.
Xuan Feng represented the Shangqing Sect.
Both of these people had top experts backing them; as soon as they stood out, they immediately gave the others more courage!
Thus, the remaining Grandmasters also flew behind them.
More than a dozen Grandmasters of the Central Plains looked at the demon Li Ming together!
If more than a dozen Grandmasters could work together and dare to fight for their lives, they were indeed qualified to contend with a top expert.
Li Ming looked at these people and smiled coldly:
"Seeking death!"
As the voice fell, the deafening roar echoed again.
Heaven and earth resonated, a Qi storm!
The monstrous Qi gathered toward Mount Mount Tiansha at a terrifying speed, forming strips of light that looked like substance.
However, in such a violent environment of Heaven and Earth Qi, the Martial Dao Masters and Grandmasters present, regardless of whether they had divine abilities to absorb Heaven and Earth Qi rapidly, found it difficult to absorb even a shred of Qi from the outside world.
Because all the Heaven and Earth Qi was under Li Ming's control!
His Dao rule was named—【Swallowing Heaven】.
Swallowing heaven and earth, monopolizing Qi!
Li Ming "walked" toward the dozen Grandmasters in the air as if taking a stroll in a courtyard.
"Go help Ying Hua Jie!"
Li Fei shouted loudly, once again taking the initiative to meet Li Ming.
He had already seen that Li Ming's move this time had its key plot on Ying Hua Jie.
So they didn't need to truly defeat this demon; they just needed to destroy the other party's plot.
As long as the other party's plot failed, it was highly likely that he would not kill the Grandmasters present just to vent his anger.
If he were really so unscrupulous, the other party wouldn't have opened his mouth to tell everyone to get lost at the beginning; he would have just killed them to establish his authority directly.
Many thoughts flashed through Li Fei's mind, and then he concentrated his mind and slashed out another 【Not Knowing the Height of Heaven】.
This time, it was no longer the firmament collapsing and crushing the world, but the sky being high and the earth being wide; the distance between him and Li Ming seemed to be pulled infinitely far, with thousands of phenomena separated in between.
【Not Knowing the Height of Heaven】 could be used to suppress people with force and convince people with momentum; it could also be used for defense to consume the opponent's strength.
But the infinitely distant distance was quickly filled by the infinite Heaven and Earth Qi!
The next second, an iron fist shattered the firmament and first struck the Ghost Slaying Blade.
Snap!
This level-six exotic weapon that had followed Li Fei in battle for a long time was broken in the middle!
The violent and majestic fist energy continued to strike Li Fei's head.
The dragon-shaped battle helmet on his head dented inward, shattered, and his head tilted back violently.
"Do you really think you can keep fighting across realms?"
Li Ming's voice exploded in Li Fei's mind!
He didn't wait for Li Fei to borrow force to retreat and repair the battle armor; a second punch arrived, striking Li Fei's chest armor that hadn't been fully repaired yet.
The punch was heavy and silent.
Li Fei, who should have been blasted backward, was instead sucked and squeezed tightly onto the other party's fist.
The entire heaven and earth seemed to have been shattered by this punch, collapsing toward this fist, about to be completely devoured!
"Are you worthy of fighting a top expert?!"
Li Ming's voice continued to ring out.
Clearly, the words Li Fei said just now had stimulated him.
Li Fei's heart was like still water.
These two punches from Li Ming had knocked off over 1,300 more of his Blood Souls!
At this moment, the Blood Souls in the Myriad Blood Pearl had been completely exhausted, and there were over 2,800 Blood Souls left in the Blood Spring.
But the next instant, the Blood Souls in the Myriad Blood Pearl were full again!
The Myriad Blood Pearl leveled up!
Previously on the Baifeng Plain, Li Fei had intended to use the battle with Qin Qin Mingli to level up the Myriad Blood Pearl, but he was later sent to another battlefield by Wen Wen Ren Zheng.
After this period of accumulation, the Myriad Blood Pearl was not far from leveling up; now, after taking three punches from a top expert, it finally gathered enough energy for the upgrade.
The Myriad Blood Pearl leveled up from 46 to 47, increasing by 92 Blood Souls, and the number of Blood Souls in the Myriad Blood Pearl became 6,770.
Based on the energy value obtained from Li Ming's three punches just now, Li Fei estimated that before all his Blood Souls were exhausted, the Myriad Blood Pearl should be able to level up again!
This was his confidence in daring to make a move against Li Ming!
After the Myriad Blood Pearl leveled up, Li Fei immediately consumed 3,000 Blood Souls to invest in the 【Sword Sacrifice】 divine ability.
Up to this point, he had consumed a total of 6,000 Blood Souls to perform 【Sword Sacrifice】!
Shadows appeared on the golden battle armor—
Sun and moon wheels, golden dragon circling, sword Qi river, altar, and the two characters "Jingan" flickering!
Li Ming's eyes changed; he was surprised by Li Fei for the second time!
Another punch struck Li Fei's head; this time, what blocked the iron fist were shadows of mountains, rivers, cities...
The shouts of billions of living beings resounded through heaven and earth!
【Sword Sacrifice】 enhanced the 【Hunyuan Sword World】, and the 【Hunyuan Sword World】 enhanced the 【Jingan】 divine ability.
So the national power protection Li Fei obtained was even stronger!
He let Li Ming punch, dragged the blade with one hand, and the broken blade slashed toward Li Ming's neck.
This blade seemed to have slashed into an ocean condensed from Heaven and Earth Qi, and unprecedented resistance came from the blade's edge!
Boom—
A streak of white rainbow with dazzling sparks swept past in front of Li Ming.
【Heaven and Earth Single Blade】, breaking heaven and earth!
The two figures separated.
Li Ming stood in the air with an expressionless face and reached out to touch his neck.
A handful of blood!
