Wei Qing gripped his long saber, slashing horizontally towards Hao Qing Immortal Emperor of the Qiongqi lineage. The terrifying saber energy shattered the firmament along its path. Hao Qing Immortal Emperor, the last Immortal Emperor of the Qiongqi lineage, controlled thirty-five Imperial Fates. The sudden intervention of the Taotie clan was something Wei Qing and Meng Gong had anticipated. The two immediately acted, intercepting one each. The great battle commenced!
The four Immortal Emperors entered the depths of the Heavenly Abyss. Wei Qing unleashed a fearsome saber strike, imbued with the killing intent of a Azure Dragon, illuminating the entire chaos. With roars of "Kill! Kill! Kill!", visions of a million soldiers appeared. This strike possessed immense power, the absolute limit of ten Imperial Fates, unleashed in full. At this moment, it was as if a peerless Immortal Emperor wielding thirty-six Imperial Fates had unleashed a potent blow.
"Wei Qing!"
"Do you truly believe the Qiongqi lineage has walked this path in vain!" Facing the terrifying saber strike, Hao Qing Immortal Emperor remained utterly calm. His long hair fluttered in the void, and a colossal phantom of a Qiongqi materialized behind him in the sky. He reached out and grasped the void, condensing the blood essence of countless Qiongqi beings in his palm. A yellow longsword revealed its sharpness!
The Dinghuang Sword!
The ancestral treasure of the Qiongqi lineage! Forged by the ancestor of the Qiongqi lineage, it was perfectly suited for the Qiongqi bloodline!
"Kill!"
Hao Qing Immortal Emperor roared, wielding the Dinghuang Sword. Instantly, the Qiongqi phantom behind him let out a sky-shattering roar and lunged downwards, unleashing boundless primal energies. Immense Imperial might surged on the sword. At this moment, the Heavenly Abyss exploded, and even the colossal divine sun illuminating the vast territories instantly shattered. With a thunderous roar, countless layers of space fractured. As this sword condensed, all Qiongqi beings roared in unison, their boundless bloodline surging upwards into the Heavenly Abyss.
Hao Qing Immortal Emperor, holding the Dinghuang Sword, felt his arm tremble from the immense energy, and the surging killing intent annihilated the chaos of the Heavenly Abyss.
*Bang!*
Hao Qing Immortal Emperor unleashed his sword. Boundless yellow light surged through the fractured, layered spaces. Saber energy met sword light, colliding with a resounding crash.
"Taotie clan, daring to stand against my Great Han, your lands will inevitably be invaded by my myriad armies and annihilated in the future!" Within another part of the Heavenly Abyss, Meng Gong shattered the powerful strike of the Initial Immortal Emperor with his long saber. The surging, terrifying saber energy caused the Initial Immortal Emperor's arm to tremble, revealing faint bloody marks.
"Kill!"
The Initial Immortal Emperor wasted no words. His Imperial eyes remained locked on Meng Gong. With a rumble, the battle between them shook the Heavenly Abyss into explosion, and immeasurable, terrifying energies reverberated through its depths. The great seal in the Initial Immortal Emperor's hand was incredibly powerful, as if supporting the firmament itself, it pressed down furiously towards Meng Gong. This great seal was crafted from a bone of the Taotie ancestor, blended with chaotic stone into an supreme treasure. Its might was considerable, ranking as the Taotie clan's most potent Immortal Treasure. Its killing power was terrifying, its offense fierce, yet it faced a master of mobile defense. Every fierce, reckless suppression was effortlessly evaded by Meng Gong. With a saber strike, he bypassed the great seal and sent the Initial Immortal Emperor flying!
"Boundless bloodline, aid me in battle!"
In Wei Qing's battlefield, Hao Qing Immortal Emperor roared, wielding the Dinghuang Sword. His powerful cry echoed through the nine domain realms of the Qiongqi lineage. With a series of booms, nine powerful Imperial patterns rose from the nine domain realms. Thuds resounded as powerful yellow phantoms emerged from each of the nine Imperial patterns.
"We beseech our ancestor!"
"We beseech our ancestor!"
"We beseech our ancestor!"
...
One by one, Qiongqi beings knelt on both knees, paying homage to the heavens. With earth-shattering shouts, powerful bloodlines converged in the palms of the nine yellow phantoms that emerged from the Imperial patterns. A snow-white tusk materialized, long like blades capable of splitting the heavens and earth. The Immortal Emperor power it radiated was ancient. These were the nine teeth left behind by the ancestor of the Qiongqi lineage before his demise, upon which he had laid nine Imperial patterns to protect the lands of the Qiongqi lineage.
"They've even brought out the ancestor's trump cards?" Wei Qing raised an eyebrow, but quickly shook his head, a cold smile appearing on his face. "Nothing more than this!"
*Dong!*
His long saber vibrated, and an ancient banner rose above the vision of a million soldiers behind him. On this banner, a phantom pointing towards the mountains and rivers appeared. At this moment, Wei Qing stepped forward, and with a tremor of his right hand, his battle saber transformed into specks of starlight, drifting in the boundless chaos. It coalesced into a vision of endless grasslands and deserts. The phantom before the ancient banner pointed forward, and a terrifying battle saber materialized, dripping with blood, its brilliance shaking the ancient past!
*Rumble!*
The blood-stained battle saber vibrated, causing the chaos to shatter! Wei Qing stepped forward, his hand tightly gripping the blood-stained long saber behind him. He cast a glance at the colossal phantom, bowed respectfully, then turned, his gaze fixed on Hao Qing Immortal Emperor.
"Those who vex my mighty Han will be punished no matter how far!"
"Kill!"
Wei Qing shouted coldly, his arms gripping the long saber and slashing forward with all his might. With a thunderous roar, the boundless chaos churned, and endless spaces annihilated. Imperial patterns opened a path of mountains and rivers. With the augmentation of that colossal phantom, the saber strike seemed capable of obliterating all existence!
The enemy may advance!
We too may advance!
*Boom!*
The powerful saber energy struck great terror into Hao Qing Immortal Emperor. All the Imperial might he unleashed collapsed and dissipated within three feet of himself. The nine colossal phantoms, wielding tusks, were shattered by a single saber strike of boundless saber energy.
"Puff!"
At this moment, all the Qiongqi beings spat out blood, their aura becoming extremely weak. With a rumble, the nine Imperial patterns laid by the ancestor of the Qiongqi lineage before his demise all shattered. The dense Immortal Qi of the nine domain realms instantly depleted, as if swallowed by powerful beings. The earth cracked, mountains crumbled, and the endless dense forests turned yellow.
"Humans, you will not fare well either!"
The colossal saber energy descended, tearing at Hao Qing Immortal Emperor's scalp. Imperial blood flowed, his body fractured, even exploding. Every drop of Imperial blood was consumed and annihilated by the flowing light. Hao Qing Immortal Emperor, clutching the Dinghuang Sword, perished in the exploding Heavenly Abyss, his lineage's foundation erased and lost in the long river of history!
*Clang!*
The long saber dissipated. Wei Qing respectfully bowed to the fading colossal phantom. The ancient battle banner vanished. Wei Qing sighed deeply and left the Heavenly Abyss.
