Chapter 264: Chapter 193: Demon Slayer Reappears (Seeking Monthly Ticket)

Time passed like a shuttle, and more than a year had gone by.

During this time, Li Qian successfully advanced the Myriad Phenomena Sword Intent to the sixth level, becoming an Intermediate Great Saint.

He also made some progress with the first three swords of the Divine Firmament Sword Skill.

Divine Firmament First Sword (Perfect) [Breaking the Sky].

Divine Firmament Second Sword (Great Success 18/100).

Divine Firmament Third Sword (Entry Level 60/100).

Now, his Divine Firmament First Sword had reached perfection, giving rise to the Breaking Void Secret Technique.

This mystical technique was extremely unique, allowing the sword qi launched to produce a breaking void effect within a certain range, appearing instantly in the area where the target needed to be attacked.

In this way, the sword qi executed by the Divine Firmament Sword Skill could not be intercepted along the way.

By the time interception was possible, the attacking sword qi was already within reach, leaving no option but to withstand it.

Moreover, the Divine Firmament Sword Skill was inherently powerful, and now with this Breaking Void Secret Technique, the threat it posed became absolutely terrifying.

With slight carelessness, the target might be annihilated with a single sword strike.

Additionally, his Divine Firmament Second Sword had also reached great success.

He tested the power of the Second Sword, and although it was not yet perfect, it was far stronger than the third level of Great River Sword Qi.

Especially with the Breaking Void Secret Technique, the threat level increased by hundreds of times.

Now, he finally had sufficiently powerful regular attacks.

That night, Li Qian silently left the Chen Bell Platform and arrived at the Stepping Cloud Peak.

A year and seven months had passed since his last visit to the Stepping Cloud Peak.

"Oh, it’s still here?"

Li Qian sensed the presence of Ling Long Great Saint within the Stepping Cloud Palace and felt surprised.

He had not appeared for over a year, yet Ling Long Great Saint had stayed here all this time, showing remarkable patience.

As soon as he entered Stepping Cloud Peak, Ling Long Great Saint also sensed Li Qian’s presence.

She quickly emerged from the Great Hall to greet him.

"Daoist Qian Yuan, you finally arrived."

Ling Long Great Saint promptly said.

For such a long time, Daoist Qian Yuan had been out of contact, making her increasingly impatient.

The war front situation grew more intense daily, and her constant presence at the rear had significant implications.

If not for the Lion Camel Ridge’s consecutive loss of two top-level Great Saints, she would never have stayed at the rear for so long.

"Daoist Ling Long, sorry to keep you waiting."

Li Qian said, "Cultivating the Divine Firmament Sword Skill took up some time. By the way, does this sword skill only have the first four swords?"

"Yes, it only has the four swords. This sword skill was acquired by chance and is said to be left behind by the existence of the Longevity Secret Realm. As for the whereabouts of the latter five swords, I know nothing."

Ling Long Great Saint shook her head as she spoke.

In her view, whether or not the Divine Firmament Nine Swords were complete did not matter much since the fourth sword already belonged to the Longevity Secret Realm Domain swordsmanship.

Let alone the latter five swords, which were beyond the reach of Great Saints like them.

In essence, the first three swords were entirely sufficient.

"I see."

Li Qian nodded.

"Daoist Qian Yuan, I have two more sword skills here. Although they cannot compare to the Divine Firmament Sword Skill, they are quite complete."

Ling Long Great Saint said.

With that, she produced two jade scrolls.

"Thank you, Daoist Ling Long."

Li Qian accepted them without inspection, placing them directly into his Storage Device.

He definitely would not be cultivating them now, but could use them as reserves for future cultivation techniques.

After all, the first three swords of the Divine Firmament Sword Skill were enough to keep him busy for quite a long time.

Let alone the fourth sword...

"Daoist Ling Long, how is the current situation at the front line?"

Li Qian inquired.

"Lion Camel Ridge lost two top-level Great Saints. Although this has made them somewhat hesitant in their attacks on the Chi Country defense line, on other fronts... the Martial Alliance faces immense pressure."

Daoist Ling Long said while producing another jade scroll containing the latest battle status.

After reviewing the jade scroll, Li Qian gained a clearer understanding.

"Then let’s head toward the Yuan Country defense line."

He pondered for a moment before responding.

This Yuan Country defense line was primarily built with the power of the Dao Sect.

"Thank you, Daoist Qian Yuan."

Ling Long Great Saint was overjoyed to hear Li Qian willing to lend his aid.

With her and Daoist Qian Yuan collaborating, combined with intelligence from the Dao Sect, they could easily hunt down some Demon Clan Great Saints.

Along the long defense line, both Demon Race and Martial Alliance’s top fighters were cautious to avoid being isolated, often operating in groups of two or more, even at Great Saint Level.

Only Great Saints of Ling Long’s stature could travel alone.

Last time, Ling Long Great Saint fell into Treasure Vase Great Saint’s trap, getting caught in an array.

If not for Ling Long Great Saint’s top-level strength, even being surrounded by two or three top-level Great Saints might not have been enough to hold her.

Soon, the two left Stepping Cloud Peak, heading toward the Yuan Country direction.

...

Half a month later.

In a deserted mountain village.

"Daoist Qian Yuan, you are indeed quite cautious."

Ling Long Great Saint smiled when she saw Li Qian hiding a Great Array within this mountain village.

"Daoist Ling Long, lacking sufficient strength, one must be cautious. If I hadn’t set up the Great Array in advance and trapped that Lion Demon within it... you might not have seen me."

Li Qian spoke calmly.

Wearing a black robe and a straw hat, he hadn’t removed them for the past several days.

By now, Ling Long Great Saint still didn’t know Li Qian’s true appearance.

"Daoist Qian Yuan, you remind me of a Qi Blood Saint predecessor from the Dharma Sect over a hundred years ago. It is said that the predecessor was also extremely cautious, never acting without absolute certainty..."
