Lao Fuzi stood between Li Bai and Qi Jiguang, facing Cheng Budao in the distance wielding a long sword.
"You alone are not enough to stop my Purple Thunder Sect!"
Gan Xing stepped out calmly, looking at Lao Fuzi in the distance. He extended his palm, clenched it fiercely, and slammed it towards the void. With a punch, his fingers opened, pointing directly at Lao Fuzi. At this moment, immense power forced Lao Fuzi's robes to flutter.
Buzz!
Lao Fuzi reluctantly made another move. A bamboo slip in front of him slowly unfurled. With a flick of his finger, the bamboo slip erupted with terrifying immortal energy fluctuations.
A white sword qi shot out.
"Chirp!"
The white sword qi directly collided with the fist intent and quickly shattered it. However, upon touching the finger’s aura, the sword qi was extinguished and scattered.
"Pfft!!"
Blood flowed from the corner of Lao Fuzi's mouth. He looked at Gan Xing with disordered breath.
"A teacher with no sect, you dare to meddle in my Purple Thunder Sect's affairs, seeking death!" Gan Xing clenched his right hand, and a long sword condensed into existence.
"General Qi, have you ever heard of the Purple Thunder Sect?!"
"Gulp~~"
Just as Gan Xing held his long sword, an extremely dismissive voice resounded throughout the entire square. At this moment, Xiahou Ni Yun, Dong Tai, and Zhuang Zhuo of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty, and Zi Lan Xin, Di Xin Yuan, and Huan Bu of the Six Fires Sect all looked at the man in white, holding a wine gourd. He took a mouthful of wine, and the faint aroma of alcohol, accompanied by a slight sword hum, was like a painting.
"Purple Thunder Sect?"
Qi Jiguang raised his eyelids slightly and glanced at Gan Xing and Cheng Bu, saying, "What is that thing!"
"What thing?"
Li Bai raised an eyebrow and said solemnly, "It should be something. General Qi, have a drink!"
"Presumptuous!"
"A mere Golden Immortal dares to look down on my Purple Thunder Sect!"
Cheng Bu roared.
"Truly seeking death. The beings of this Great Han Immortal Dynasty probably don't know who they are facing."
Xiahou Ni Yun in the distance said disdainfully.
"As the Princess said, within the Nine Realms, only the Southern Heaven Immortal Dynasty is worth noting." Dong Tai chuckled coldly.
"Two lords!"
Lao Fuzi said in surprise. At a time like this, they still dared to speak like this. These were two Immortal Monarch powerhouses, and he himself could not defeat them.
"Lao Fuzi, they are merely two clowns!"
"Coveting the possessions of my Great Han Immortal Dynasty. General Qi, according to the laws of the Great Han, what is their crime!" Li Bai put down his wine gourd and looked at Gan Xing and Cheng Bu.
"Kill!"
Qi Jiguang clasped his hands behind his back and said softly.
"You two ants dare to kill us!"
"My Purple Thunder Sect, spanning the surrounding four great realms, what can we not obtain!"
"Two mere Golden Immortals, acting invincible in this tiny Nine Realms and daring to look down on my Purple Thunder Sect?"
Gan Xing said coldly.
As his words fell, Xiahou Ni Yun's expression changed slightly, showing displeasure. The Purple Thunder Sect's words implicitly included his Great Yu Immortal Dynasty.
"Damn Purple Thunder Sect, how dare you disrespect my Great Yu Immortal Dynasty and defy the might of our Emperor!"
Zhuang Zhuo said angrily.
"No rush. After the matter of the secret treasure is concluded, we will settle this score slowly!" Xiahou Ni Yun said in a low voice.
"Hahaha!"
Li Bai heard this and laughed heartily, his unrestrained demeanor fully displayed.
"Slash!"
Gan Xing was furious. A treasure-blue sword light shot out from his hand. In an instant, divine thunder from all directions converged, and the heavens and earth roared.
Qi Jiguang clasped his hands behind his back, showing no intention of intervening. Li Bai smiled and looked at the sword qi that stirred the divine thunder.
"Great Thunder Sword, the signature immortal treasure of the Purple Thunder Sect. With the sword unleashed, divine thunder from all directions aids it, its power extremely overbearing!"
Seeing this scene, Zhuang Zhuo said softly, his eyes filled with longing. He also wished to obtain this immortal treasure, but alas, he had no fate with it.
"Clang!"
As the divine thunder roared across the sky, Li Bai's right hand flipped. Instantly, a three-foot green sword condensed. Since Li Bai had stepped into the Golden Immortal realm, the several restrictions placed by Gan Jiang had shattered. At this moment, Li Bai held a peerless immortal treasure that was not suppressed in the slightest.
Gan Jiang was a fourth-grade immortal craftsman, capable of refining divine-grade immortal treasures. A peerless immortal treasure refined by him would be the finest of its grade.
"Hmm?"
The moment the sword appeared, Li Bai gripped it lightly. Flowing sword qi began to manifest in the square, as if appearing out of thin air, enveloping the entire area. At this moment, the expressions of the five Immortal Monarch powerhouses, Lao Fuzi, Dong Tai, Zhuang Zhuo, Di Xin Yuan, and Huan Bu, all changed. They looked at the man in white as he moved. As Immortal Monarchs, one major realm higher than Li Bai, they felt a trace of danger!
"Open!"
Li Bai shouted. A river of green sword qi emerged between heaven and earth, its roar tearing through the sky. Where lotuses bloomed, there was a terrifying sword intent piercing the heavens.
"That must be the sword technique recorded on the stone tablet!"
Gan Xing roared. How could such a terrifying sword qi killing move appear in an unknown force? It must be the mysterious sword technique Li Bai had taken from the stone tablet. As he spoke, the other Immortal Monarchs, except for Lao Fuzi, all cast greedy glances.
How could an ordinary Golden Immortal unleash such terrifying sword qi? The Great Han Immortal Dynasty was merely a force from the lower realms and could not possess such profound sword knowledge. Who had inscribed the sword technique on that stone tablet? If this powerful sword technique fell into their hands, how terrifying would its might become.
Boom!
The sword strike unleashed by Gan Xing could not advance an inch. The crisscrossing divine thunder in the sky was annihilated.
"Humph~"
Li Bai raised his right hand, and the three-foot green sword in his hand plunged into the river of sword qi coalescing above his head. Instantly, lotuses bloomed, and an boundless sword intent gathered in Li Bai's eyes. The dazzling green light made all colors lose their brilliance!
"Elder Gan!"
Seeing the terrifying sword intent in Li Bai's eyes, Gan Xing's arms trembled. His expression changed drastically, and his pupils contracted as he roared at Cheng Bu.
"Attack!!"
Cheng Bu roared. In an instant, he joined Gan Xing and unleashed thousands of sword qi, blending with the converging divine thunder from all directions. The sword qi was hidden within the divine thunder, and the divine thunder erupted with sharp edges, slashing towards Li Bai.
Boom!
The river of sword qi roared. A streak of green sword qi slashed across the sky. Li Bai did not even move a finger. In the vast expanse, the killing moves jointly unleashed by Cheng Bu and Gan Xing, thousands of sword qi that had repeatedly assaulted Li Bai, were like striking a heavenly barrier, utterly unable to move an inch and all shattering.
