"Indeed." Seeing both Luohu and Poya say so, Vimozhiduoluo began to feel he might be overthinking, so he responded, decided not to pursue further questions, and turned his gaze toward the battlefield ahead.
Before him, demonic qi and elental force intertwined, the sound of spells colliding incessantly, accompanied by cries and roars, fiercely intense.
Clusters of blood mist exploded, resembling fireworks in succession, the setting sun slanting, the sound of slaughter filling the heavens, extrely harrowing.
Blood rained down from the sky, soon disappearing into the earth.
Everything seed normal.
It's just that everyone's attention was focused on the fierce battlefield ahead, so much so that no one noticed the seemingly too swift disappearance of blood into the ground.
.....
Yun Pass, Qingshan Palace.
High buildings with pointed eaves, half a crescent moon climbing over the rooftop, moonlight and lamplight contending for brilliance.
In the night, a pair of n and won flew in by sword, entering this conspicuous travelling palace in the dark.
Before long, several more people entered Qingshan Palace.
They were all the core of the Sword Sect, the pillars of support for the current Sword Sect.
Yu Canghai, Xue Wujian, and Ji Chuan.
The three experienced, dignified great sword cultivators, when first seeing Lu Qingshan, also had a fleeting mont of distraction.
Ascending the building and leaning on the railing, the gentle breeze brushed their faces, their young and handso Sect Master, with silver strands softly fluttering.
Black hair entered the abyss, white head returned to the human realm.
Lu Qingshan, with a head of white hair, sensed the unspoken hesitation of the three, stretched lazily, and said relaxingly, "This trip to the abyss was quite tragic, being hunted all the way, without paying so price, I really couldn't make it back."
"I'm still young, losing so life essence is no big deal, just right that everyone outside claims I'm too young as a Sect Master, feeling unreliable, now my hair's white like their ancestors, can't say anything more now."
He waved his hand, "Let's not talk about this for now, I called you here for so good news."
"Good news?" The three frowned unanimously.
Lu Qingshan fell silent, turning his gaze to Xia Daoyun.
So the three followed the gaze, looking at Xia Daoyun.
"I've entered Sword Immortal." Xia Daoyun, under their gaze, said calmly.
....
After twenty years, the Sword Sect finally had another Sword Immortal.
"Too fast." After a mont of astonishnt and joy, Yu Canghai couldn't help but frown.
"Entered Sword Immortal at Seventh Tribulation Realm?" he asked.
Xia Daoyun nodded slightly, saying nothing.
"You could have..." Yu Canghai lanted.
"Ti waits for no one," Xia Daoyun, seemingly without much emotion, said calmly, "The Sword Sect needs this Sword Immortal, and so does Yun Pass."
Lu Qingshan pursed his lips, saying nothing.
With Xia Daoyun's talent, she had the chance to challenge the Ninth Tribulation Realm.
At worst, she could enter Sword Immortal at the Eight Tribulation Realm, not just stop at Seventh Tribulation Realm.
He understood that Xia Daoyun's urgency to enter Sword Immortal Realm was ultimately to leave the chance of becoming a Ninth Tribulation Realm Sword Immortal for him.
Between them, one must enter Sword Immortal Realm first to carry Yun Pass for the Sword Sect.
The Sword Sect needs a Sword Immortal, and so does Yun Pass.
......
Xia Daoyun had already inherited the title of Supre from Xia Zhao, yet regarding this matter, they had long reached an agreent to temporarily keep it hidden.
Because the Human Race currently needed Xia Zhao as Supre, and Xia Daoyun needed the fortune of Great Xia — she would leave the Sword Sect's fortune for Lu Qingshan.
So, Xia Zhao maintained her title as Empress, while Xia Daoyun took over the real duties, assisting Lu Qingshan in guarding Yun Pass under the na Sword Immortal.
.....
......
The ti span of the Tianyuan Era seed to have been extended.
For instance, it felt as though the era of Qingyun Sword Immortal was just yesterday, yet a new Sword Immortal era arrived quietly.
When news spread that the Sword Sect had another Sword Immortal, the whole Yun Pass was stunned.
Spread by word of mouth, everyone was skeptical yet harbored certain expectations until the senior cultivators braved to enquire.
Then, Yun Pass was nearly mad with joy, lanterns lit everywhere, the montum surpassing that of a mundane Lantern Festival's market.
Luo Shen Sword Immortal, Xia Daoyun.
New Sword Immortal, newly invincible.
In this mont, the cultivators of Yun Pass, who had remained anxious since learning of Qingyun Sword Immortal's shocking death in Central Spirit, finally felt at ease.
Only with a Sword Immortal do they genuinely gain the confidence to hold firm the majestic pass.
.....
After returning from the abyss to Yun Pass, both Lu Qingshan and Xia Daoyun shut themselves indoors.
Xia Daoyun, being newly ascended to Sword Immortal, needed ti to settle.
Lu Qingshan focused on healing his injuries.
Even with the life-bestowing gift of the Longevity Whale and countless spiritual dicines from Yun Pass at his disposal, the recovery speed was still unsatisfactory.
Of course, Lu Qingshan wasn't particularly dissatisfied.
Because, if not for reasonably decent luck, he might have ended up crippled this ti.
Moreover, although paying the price of severe injury but failing to kill Luo Qiantuo was quite unfortunate, for Lu Qingshan personally, through this battle, his mindset and cultivation benefited greatly.
Luo Qiantuo served as an ideal grinding stone for Lu Qingshan to hone his Sword Dao and refine his invincible montum.
However, if only Luo Qiantuo could have offered his life to further his experience points generously, it would be even better.
The gains from this battle extend beyond just this.
Lu Qingshan cast his eyes on the deep blue panel, the Eight Tribulation Realm progression task "I Am Invincible at Eight Realms" was brilliantly illuminated, flashing with srizing golden light.
This signified the task being completed.
During his and Luo Qiantuo's battles across countless miles, lasting twenty days of life-and-death struggle, following that single sword strike that summoned a bright moon for a day, everything already concluded, settled down, and the progression task silently transford into a completed state.
Facts proved, the determination chanism of this task belonged to the third type — almost impossible to complete.
If it wasn't for Lu Qingshan having Lie Que, Dragon Sparrow, Power of the Mountains and Seas, and Elent Force akin to a fourth-step Harmonious Path cultivator, he'd have died at Luo Qiantuo's hands long ago, let alone achieving a counter-kill.
Thinking of this made Lu Qingshan frown.
The Eighth Tribulation Realm, scarce in the world, having a high difficulty in the progression tasks was logical.
But reaching such difficulty seed abnormal.
——The difficulty of the Eighth Tribulation Realm progression task was already like this, then what about the Ninth Tribulation Realm? Won't it be impossibly more difficult than the Eighth's progression task?
But if the Eighth's progression task required defeating a top-tier Demon Lord, how could an even harder task possibly be achievable by a Tribulation Crossing Realm cultivator?
Though often criticized as terrible design, a ga designer wouldn't set an entirely impossible task, right?
Had he wrestled with it, but Lu Qingshan didn't have much ti to think about what's yet to co.
His urgent task was healing.
Although the Eighth Tribulation Realm progression task was completed, until his injuries healed, Lu Qingshan dared not recklessly attempt the Eight-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, to ascend to the Eight Tribulation Realm.
All is prepared, only the east wind is missing.
