Mortal Bones

Just when Qi Po was wondering why Xu Taiping said that, a very strong aura wave struck from behind him like a wall.

When Qi Po came back to his senses, he saw Amen, Cui Tiegu, Dugu Qingxiao, Chen Hao, Yun Ye, and Ye Qingnu standing side by side with him again.

"this……"

Seeing this scene, Liu Chuxuan and others were stunned.

The watching monks in the surrounding stands and in front of the spiritual mirror broke out into a fierce uproar.

No one expected that none of these people would stop where they were.

At this time, Cui Tiegu suddenly pulled Liu Gu away and stood between him and Qi Po.

Then he, who was extremely tall, pressed a head beside him with one hand, looked at Liu Chuxuan and others with a sarcastic face and said:

"Liu Chuxuan, why do you think we were chosen for the Sword Chief Ranking?"

"Isn't it because, when facing Jiuyuan, our fighting spirit is much higher than that of others!"

The indifferent Ye Qingnu also said expressionlessly:

"To kill ten demons, I, Ye Qingnu, can do it alone."

Yun Ye from the Three Emperors Dao Palace also crossed his arms over his chest at this time, with a calm expression on his face and said:

"Palace Master Liu, are you setting this trap to break our Taoist aspirations?"

At this time, Amon also crossed his arms across his chest, looked at Liu Chuxuan, Zhenjun Xuanmin and others with a smile and said:

"Two little kids dare to draw swords against the Ten Demons. How can I, an old man, have no reason to back down?"

The words of several people suddenly woke up Palace Master Liu Chuxuan, and then he smiled bitterly and said:

"I forgot, Kuang, you guys are no worse than those two little guys!"

True Lord Xuan Ming did not speak, but his eyes, as if facing a formidable enemy, were enough to explain everything.

Mu Zhixing said with a solemn expression:

"But judging from these seven people, not only was the selection of the Sword Leader not wrong, but it was actually a good one!"

But even so, he still didn't think that Qi Po, Liu Gu, and the high crossbow could be of any use in this sword inquiry.

"Two young boys who are just starting out and crazy to the point of no end."

"An old man who was over sixty years old and just got the opportunity to start practicing Buddhism."

"These three people will definitely hold us back."

He thought so in his heart.

Let’s talk about Xu Taiping.

After silently listening to the words of several people on the side, he suddenly raised the corners of his mouth slightly and quietly said to Fairy Lingyue in his heart:

"Sister Lingyue, I guessed it right. The Sword Chief Ranking chose these ten people more based on their character than their superficial cultivation and combat prowess."

He paused, then continued:

"In other words, it pays more attention to the chosen person and whether the reason for using the sword is strong!"

In Xu Taiping's opinion, perhaps Qi Po, Liu Gu, and Gao Nu were not as strong as others in terms of cultivation and combat power, but the three of them must have had some very strong reasons to use their swords in this sword battle with the Ten Demons.

Just like the high crossbow.

Immediately, Fairy Lingyue’s voice sounded in Xu Taiping’s mind——

"But even so, this question of swordsmanship is still extremely dangerous for you, Taiping."

"After all, even if the selection of the Sword Leader List is correct, it can only select those who are most likely to win among you."

Xu Taiping immediately nodded calmly and said:

"I'll handle it carefully."

Fairy Lingyue on the other end sighed, put away the jade slip, and murmured:

"I hope Taiping can survive this disaster smoothly."

As she spoke, she lightly touched the roof with her toes, jumped up, and flew straight towards the direction of Tianzhu Peak Jianping.

…

After a while.

"boom!……"

With a loud noise, the huge sword leader list above Jianping suddenly stretched out, and lines of golden text appeared on the sword leader list.

At the same time, the female voice full of cold and chilling meaning sounded again——

"This time, the place to ask for swords is no longer limited to Jianping. With Tianzhu Peak as the center, all the peaks within a thousand miles are battlefields."

"In the first game of Asking the Sword, both sides sent one person to appear on the stage to ask the sword."

"The winner stays on the field, the loser leaves the field, and new people are sent to the field to question the sword."

Although the rules for sword questioning announced by the Sword Chief Ranking are very simple, everyone knows very well that the next competition is likely to be a matter of life and death.

"boom!……"

After the voice fell, everyone was pushed down the sword platform by the sword gang pouring out from the sword leader list before they could think about it.

Immediately afterwards, the voice of the woman in the sword leader list sounded again——

"The true martial artist who asks for swordsmanship will be determined by the sword leader list."

At the same time, the voice of the witch mother's decree above her head also came from the sky -

"Whoever comes to Jiuyuan to ask for swordsmanship will be determined by Jade Mother's decree."

Immediately, in the expectant gazes of Xu Taiping and other sword-askers, as well as the surrounding spectator stands and the monks watching the battle in front of the spiritual mirror, the name of the sword-asker appeared simultaneously on the Demon Mother's Edict and the Sword Leader List -

"The Nine Abyss Sword Asker, the Five Demon Abyss, the Demon Emperor Dragon Scorpion."

"The Zhenwu sword seeker, Huang Maple Valley, Qi Po."

After seeing the name on the sword leader list, the ten sword cultivators below the sword platform all looked at Qi Po.

Cui Tiegu even touched Qi Po's head with a smile and said:

"Little guy, if you're afraid of death, it's still too late."

Qi Po pushed Cui Tiegu's hand away and said:

"Afraid of a ball!"

Immediately, the dark-faced Qi Po bowed his hands to everyone in an arrogant manner and said:

"Seniors, I, Qi Po, will take the head of the dragon scorpion right now!"

After saying that, Qi Po's eyes were full of excitement. He turned around and ran towards Jianping, and laughed with a bit of madness on his face:

"No restraint when encountering demons, no restraint when encountering demons, no restraint when encountering demons!"

"Sir, that's what you said!"

"Great, great, this time I can finally be free and kill as much as I want!"

"Kill as much as I want!"

"Kill, kill, kill, hahahaha!"

With a crazy laugh, Qi Po jumped up, and his figure jumped onto the Jianping several feet high like a cheetah.

"Boom!"

Almost at the same time, the Demon Emperor Dragon Scorpion of the Five Demon Abyss also turned into a sword light and fell heavily on Jianping.

It was different from the previous sword-asking meeting.

The two parties standing on Jianping did not greet each other or exchange pleasantries.

They just attacked directly.

"Boom!"

Amidst the sound of breaking through the air, in the horrified eyes of the spectators, the dragon scorpion immediately revealed its true demon body, revealing its huge demon body with a human body and a scorpion tail. Then, with a "swish" sound, the huge tail with scorpion needles swept towards Qi Po who was rushing towards it.

But as the scorpion tail swept out, Qi Po was not afraid but laughed instead.

Immediately afterwards, he made a "swoosh" sound, then drew his sword and said:

"Third level of sword domain, lend me three hundred years of cultivation!"

The moment the voice fell, a phantom of the god's Dharma suddenly rose from behind Qi Po and held him in his palm with his hands together.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, Qi Po climbed to the peak of the Wangtian Realm and slashed at the Demon Emperor Dragon Scorpion with a sword.

"Swish!"

Amidst the sound of breaking through the air, everyone looked at it with disbelief, and the Demon Emperor Dragon Scorpion was actually cut off by Qi Po's sword!
