Longevity Martial Arts: I have a Mysterious Water Snake Avatar-Chapter 205 - 197: Swallowing Calamity with Calamity! My Name is Bo Qing!
Behind Li Ziyang, forty-nine inverted mountains suddenly rose, shaking the earth and sky.
This was a terrifying sight, brought about by the projection of celestial phenomena like the sun, moon, and Stars from the King’s Sword onto them, as if Li Ziyang had plucked the Stars from the heavens with his bare hands.
The Ferocious Beasts and Mountain Robbers within the Luohe Mountain Range cried out in terror, fleeing in panic and inciting massive beast tides.
Even fifth-order Ferocious Beasts dared not pause, running for their lives in a frenzy.
"Slay me?"
Facing such a scene, Hong Yuan sneered with disdain, clutching the hilt of his sword, and said, "Then come!"
Seeing Hong Yuan still so arrogant at death’s door, Li Ziyang swung the King’s Sword.
BOOM!
With a loud bang, the forty-nine mountains shone brightly with starlight, weaving together a Milky Way spectacle, forming a miniature star system.
The forty-nine star peaks descended from the heavens with the momentum of collapsing mountains and tsunamis, pressing down heavily.
The King’s Sword Qi combined with this terrifying force was enough to break the void.
After executing this move, Li Ziyang clearly looked drained.
He looked expectantly at Hong Yuan, his pupils involuntarily contracting as he silently exclaimed to himself, The second Divine Skills Channel!?
With a flicker, Hong Yuan’s figure vanished from the mountain peak.
Hong Yuan seemed to pass through the void, appearing right in front of Li Ziyang, raising the Heavenly River Sword high.
As the Heavenly River Sword cried out, Hong Yuan’s eyes suddenly turned as deep as an abyss; Sword Intent and Sword Qi unleashed simultaneously in a fierce downward slash.
At the same time, the Heavenly River Sword Body moved at high speed, infiltrating the firmament.
Soul, sword, water, blood... The rotation of these elements spread a terrifying aura, and the Sword-light Spirit Snake and Sword-light Forest Python took on vivid, lifelike appearances, as if they were alive!
Faced with no other choice, Li Ziyang could only swing horizontally to block and counter each move.
The fierce clashing and the flying sparks ignited the Luohe Mountain Range, with flames reaching for the sky.
Hong Yuan shattered both the star peaks and the power of the great stars of the sun and the moon.
It was a battle of both tragic and heroic grandeur, with reasons none could retreat from.
Above the firmament was the Green Heaven.
Within Green Heaven, Martial Saint Ansheng’s gaze was as cold as ice, his eyes like icy swords, staring coldly at Hong Yuan.
"Damn demon spawn, you better have lost, otherwise..."
Suddenly, Martial Saint Ansheng’s expression changed drastically, and he traversed a hundred miles in an instant. But the next moment, he stopped dejectedly on the outskirts, watching the changed Luohe Mountain Range. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
In the Luohe Mountain Range, thunderbolts surged, meteors fell, and blazing fire clouds roared, covering the mountains with their fiery glow as various terrifying presences awoke.
Li Ziyang hovered between heaven and earth, laughing loudly.
The three steps of Saint Achievement Immortal Transcending: the first step, Shatter the Aperture; the second step, Absorb Qi; the third step, Explode the Aperture.
At this time, Li Ziyang was initiating the Saint Achievement Immortal Transcending Tribulation.
"Blood Demon Sword, you may have won, but I have not lost!"
"Good and evil cannot coexist; let’s see who has the last laugh."
With that, Li Ziyang, holding the King’s Sword, charged into the Heaven Tribulation, seeking to influence it to eradicate Hong Yuan.
Thunder filled the sky as the storm gathered, and Hong Yuan’s expression turned grim.
He was just half a step away from killing Li Ziyang, which would allow the Heavenly River Sword to rectify its flaws and might even grant him a hint of a Holy Artifact’s might.
But Li Ziyang’s decisiveness exceeded his expectations, for Li Ziyang had initiated the Saint Achievement Immortal Transcending Tribulation while only at a slight disadvantage.
Undergoing tribulation in a safe environment was known to be fraught with mortal danger. To undertake it with a mortal enemy in tow was almost akin to seeking life from a place of certain death.
Suddenly, a smile appeared on Hong Yuan’s face. "Using the tribulation to slay an enemy? You’re thinking wishfully."
BOOM! The Aperture within Hong Yuan’s body violently shattered.
He completed the first of the three steps of Saint Achievement Immortal Transcending—Shattering the Aperture—in the blink of an eye, directly proceeding to Absorbing Qi.
This action, however, led to an even larger thunderstorm gathering, sprawling out for hundreds of miles, surging mightily. Despite it being night, it shone as bright as day.
At this moment, countless people looked up, panic-stricken, unable to face this display of Great Power directly.
Within the thunderstorm, Jia Gold Divine Thunder, Decreasing Wood Thunder, Kui Water Divine Thunder, Qiao Fire Divine Thunder, and Earth Divine Thunder gathered. In the depths of the Thunder Pool, a Desolate Beast Thunder Dragon even roamed.
For an ordinary Martial Cultivator, facing even one type of tribulation thunder during their Saint Achievement Transcending Tribulation was already terrifying. Yet, Hong Yuan now faced five types simultaneously, along with a Desolate Beast Thunder Dragon—a great terror equivalent to a sixth-order Martial Saint!
"Damn it, this demon spawn is actually one of the Ten Extreme Bodies!?" Martial Saint Ansheng inwardly grimaced. Ziyang is in trouble.
Hong Yuan spurred on the Heavenly River Sword, charging towards Li Ziyang.
The Heaven Tribulation above his head moved as well, and two Heaven Tribulations of different sizes collided.
In Li Ziyang’s horrified gaze, his Heaven Tribulation was "swallowed" by Hong Yuan’s.
This scene stunned everyone present and even shocked the Martial Saints who were observing secretly.
The Saint Achievement Immortal Transcending Tribulation itself was already an extraordinary sight, rarely seen.
But the sight of one Heaven Tribulation devouring another was beyond anyone’s imagination.
It was simply inconceivable!
"What is this!?" Li Ziyang’s mouth hung open, unable to comprehend.
When neither the celestial energy nor the terrestrial energy appeared, Li Ziyang panicked completely.
Without the support of celestial and terrestrial energy, relying solely on his own human energy, he couldn’t initiate the second step of "Absorbing Qi" in the Saint Achievement Immortal Transcending process.
In other words, he had already failed before the tribulation had even begun!
Li Ziyang stared at Hong Yuan, full of rage. But upon seeing that Hong Yuan was in a perilous state from the Jia Gold Divine Thunder and unable to extricate himself, much of his anger dissipated.
Yet shortly after, Hong Yuan harnessed the wind and thunder, charging towards him.
Li Ziyang clenched the King’s Sword tightly, roaring with unwilling anger, "Blood Demon Sword, come to your death!"
Under the Heaven Tribulation, the two clashed once again.
BOOM!
The Jia Gold Divine Thunder ceased, the Stars shattered, the sun and the moon trembled; the might of this collision actually briefly broke through a layer of the Tribulation Cloud.
Facing Li Ziyang’s all-out tactics of killing eight hundred enemies at the cost of a thousand of his own, Hong Yuan’s expression remained indifferent, showing not the slightest sign of retreat.
Hong Yuan executed his sword steps, which undulated like snakes and pythons, and the entire space suddenly filled with countless phantom images of them.
He used the tribulation to wield his sword, integrating sword with tribulation, reversing the thunder, taking its place.
Hong Yuan’s sword moves became simpler and simpler; often, just one sword stroke would press Li Ziyang so hard that he couldn’t catch his breath.
But Hong Yuan’s momentum grew stronger and stronger, daring to challenge the heavens themselves.
With each swing of his sword, the sword-light grew sharper, its power ever greater. With his own body as the origin, space tore apart, revealing layer upon layer of black fissures.
"How can this be? Is this really the power a tribulation-crosser should have?" Holding the trembling King’s Sword, Li Ziyang felt indignant.
"You demon spawn, you really are something..." Martial Saint Ansheng’s eyes were icy cold as he slowly performed the Tai Chi Fist Skill, and a Golden Yin-Yang Fish Diagram began to emerge.
If Hong Yuan failed his tribulation, then he wouldn’t make a move.
If Hong Yuan succeeded in his tribulation, then he would show Hong Yuan what real Martial Saint power was.
He wanted Hong Yuan to die without a burial place!
「Under the Heaven Tribulation.」
Li Ziyang’s gaze dimmed, his expression desolate. "The Way wanes, the demons rise... I, I’ve lost—"
His figure began to crumble bit by bit, turning into a rain of light that dissipated continuously.
In the moment of impending death, he didn’t even know who his opponent was.
On the other side, the Heavenly River Sword brutally gnawed at the King’s Sword, which, unwilling to yield, fought back desperately.
The Heavenly River Sword couldn’t gnaw through, so it sought help from Hong Yuan.
Suddenly, Hong Yuan said, "My name, Bo Qing!"
Li Ziyang’s eyes brightened for a moment, then slowly closed.
BUZZ... BUZZ... The Holy Sword had a spirit. The King’s Sword, sensing the complete demise of its companion, wilted.
The Heavenly River Sword seized the opportunity and gnawed voraciously, as fierce as a great gray wolf devouring a little white rabbit.
"How dare you!" Martial Saint Ansheng’s eyes blazed with flames, his anger burning fiercely.
But the Terrifying Heavenly Tribulation blocked his actions, fueling his internal fury even more.
Every Disciple of True Transmission level was a core inheritor, the culmination of a Sect’s immense efforts.
Not to mention, Li Ziyang was the Kylin Child of the Sword Cultivator Li Family, valued by the Four Sword Masters of Slaying Emperor.
With Li Ziyang’s death, it would be difficult for Ansheng to explain to the four Sword Masters!
CRACKLE!
The Decreasing Wood Thunder poured down from the sky relentlessly, striking at Hong Yuan and leaving black fissures in the void.
Hong Yuan grasped the Heavenly River Sword, its Sword Body fully restored.
In the astonished eyes of the Martial Saints, he spun around and sprinted, charging towards the Tribulation Cloud.
