Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

Lin Bai came with his sword and sensed that Ke Ling was in the forest ahead, so he immediately slashed with his sword.

The green sword energy roared and killed, destroying the mountain forest and turning it into ruins.

When the sword hit Ke Ling, Ke Ling suddenly raised his head, stretched out his palm and grabbed Lin Bai's sword energy in his hand.

The next moment, Ke Ling exerted force with his hands, and after a crisp "click" sound, the ten thousand-foot-sized cyan sword energy cracked like a piece of sapphire, and then burst into pieces.

After the sword energy collapsed, the force of the impact razed an area of ​​thousands of miles to the ground.

Smoke and dust swept across again, rising into the sky.

Lin Bai was stunned for a moment. At that moment, he clearly felt that a force that did not belong to Ke Ling appeared on Ke Ling's body.

Standing in mid-air, Lin Bai looked warily into the smoke.

Among the billowing yellow smoke, a black smoke slowly appeared.

A figure slowly walked out.

Only when he appeared in Lin Bai's field of vision did Lin Bai see clearly.

At this moment, Ke Ling no longer had the cool demeanor of the Holy Son, but instead became more violent and bloodthirsty like a beast.

His whole body was filled with a black smoke that could not be dispersed, overflowing from every pore on his body.

The veins on his face popped out, his facial features were unusually ferocious, his eyes were slightly narrowed to reveal blood-red eyes, especially the growling voice that came from his mouth from time to time, he didn't look like a person at all, more like a demon.

Inside the Dongtian Immortal Palace.

When Emperor Chu saw this scene, he immediately smiled with understanding and said, "No wonder the Heaven and Earth Sect chose Ke Ling to be the Holy Son. Is it because his body can carry a trace of the earth demon's remnant soul?"

The expressions of the elders of Tiandimen changed slightly. They did not seem to have thought that Ke Ling would be forced into such a situation by Lin Bai and had to release the remaining soul of the old demon to resist Lin Bai.

Facing Emperor Chu's questioning, several elders of Tiandimen smiled and said nothing more.

"Old Demon..."

Emperor Chu murmured softly.

Earth Demon is one of the founders of the Heaven and Earth Sect. He became famous in the battle that destroyed the Jiuyou Demon Palace a hundred thousand years ago.

Within the Heaven and Earth Sect, there are two founders. One is called the "Heavenly Ancestor" by the disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sect, and the other is called the "Earth Demon".

Whether they are Heavenly Ancestor or Earth Demon, these are the names given to them by their disciples. Their exact names have been unknown for a long time.

Perhaps only some ancestors and elders in the Tiandi Sect would remember the names of Tianzu and Earth Demon.

The battle that destroyed the Nine Nether Demon Palace 100,000 years ago allowed the Heaven and Earth Sect to rise, but of course it also paid some price.

One of the two founders, Earth Demon's body was shattered on the spot, and his soul was shattered.

Tianzu spent all his efforts to collect the souls of the old demons, and found a total of thirty-five soul fragments.

The fragments of the earth demon's remnant soul are one of the treasures of the Heaven and Earth Sect.

Due to the special skills practiced by Earth Demon, the fragments of his remnant soul contain extremely powerful power.

Before his incarnation, Tianzu said that he was looking for a reliable host for the fragments of the Earth Demon's remnant soul. If the opportunity comes, the Earth Demon will most likely revive.

To put it simply, it is to find a body for Old Demon and use it to resurrect Old Demon.

After the Heavenly Ancestor was enthroned, the first major task within the Heaven and Earth Sect was to find a reliable host for the Earth Demon.

Over the past tens of thousands of years, the Heaven and Earth Sect has found more than 20 saint sons, but in the end, no saint son can withstand the fragments of the earth demon's remnant soul. The final outcome is when the fragments of the remnant soul are fused, or Die a strange and sudden death, or become insane.

This is why it is rumored in the Chu country that the Holy Son of the Heaven and Earth Sect is the most dangerous Holy Son.

Because all the saints of the Heaven and Earth Sect have either disappeared mysteriously or died inexplicably.

Many people don't know why this is?

Emperor Chu once ordered the Zhaoxing Division to conduct a secret investigation, and only then did he learn about the fragments of the Earth Demon's remnant soul.

I also understood why the Holy Son of Heaven and Earth Gate disappeared mysteriously.

Over the years, Ke Ling is the warrior who has the highest ability to match the fragments of Earth Demon's remnant soul.

Tiandimen also felt that the old demon could borrow Ke Ling's body to resurrect.

Although Earth Demon is not a powerful person at the level of a great supernatural power, he is still a first-class master in the Chu Kingdom.

If the earth demon is resurrected, the strength of the Tiandi Sect will increase several times, becoming the strongest sect under the Chu Kingdom.

Even if the Heaven and Earth Sect is planning again, it is very likely to threaten the status of Chu State.

"snort."

Emperor Chu snorted coldly.

The sound was not loud, but to the ears of the elders of Tiandimen, it was like thunder.

…

In Dongtian Hunting Park.

Lin Bai stood on the flying sword and looked at this "monster" carefully.

"Huh huh huh...hahahaha..."

At this moment, Ke Ling's blood-red eyes were staring at Lin Bai, and a sharp and harsh laughter suddenly came from his mouth.

"Is it some kind of forbidden technique?"

Seeing Ke Ling's appearance, Lin Bai vaguely guessed that Ke Ling might have used some kind of secret technique.

But what surprised Lin Bai was that Ke Ling's power didn't seem to increase much. He was still only at the peak of the Taoist realm, but it brought Lin Bai a kind of pressure that was difficult to control.

"Roar!"

Ke Ling roared angrily and flew towards Lin Bai.

The power surged from his body and turned into a storm, tearing apart space.

A claw struck out, directly attacking the space where Lin Bai was.

Lin Bai stepped on the flying sword and dodged away. When he looked back, he found that the space was torn into five cracks by this person's claw.

If Lin Bai failed to escape in time, he would inevitably end up with his head missing.

Ke Ling rushed towards Lin Bai as if he was crazy.

Although he is still only at the peak of the Taoist realm, his speed and strength have reached the Taiyi Daoguo realm.

But the power in him was very unstable, sometimes strong and sometimes weak.

"It turns out it's not a secret technique, but the remnant soul of a strong man sealed in your body."

"The remaining soul is released at this moment."

"Humph, it's just a dead person who still wants to stay in the world because of an obsession he had while alive!"

"Damn it, just die, why bother lingering in this world!"

Lin Bai raised his demon sword and killed Ke Ling.

The cyan sword light and black flames collided fiercely in mid-air.

The two people faced each other head-on for the first time, and there was an earth-shattering loud sound. The aftermath of boundless power spread out, causing turmoil in a radius of a hundred thousand miles, destroying mountains and forests, and cracking the earth.

The Qinglian Sword Technique continued to strike in Lin Bai's hands, and the sword energy burst out, killing no good place in the nine heavens and ten earths.

For a while, the two were in a stalemate. Lin Bai could not kill Ke Ling in a short time, and Ke Ling could not do anything to Lin Bai.

Immediately, Lin Bai took off the green gourd from his waist, opened the cork, and poured a few mouthfuls of dragon blood wine into his mouth.

The domineering and hot dragon blood wine immediately gave Lin Bai a feeling of being tipsy.

The verses about Qinglian Sword Technique squirmed in his mind again.

As the scriptures squirmed and changed, a sword intent spread out from Lin Bai's body.

"Qinglian Sword Intent!"

This is the third stage of the practice of "Qinglian Sword Technique", and you can achieve the Qinglian Sword Intent!

It's just that at this moment, Lin Bai has not yet fully entered the third stage of practice, and can only rely on dragon blood wine to barely use the Qinglian Sword Intent.
