104: flaw

The moment the great enemy attacked, Li Qi immediately unleashed his Martial Dao Divine Ability, disappearing into the Qingming Heaven.

Hidden deep within the Qingming Heaven, Li Qi finally saw the legendary Lord Fuyang. His strength was immense; he was the strongest being Li Qi had ever encountered!

A great sun hung in the sky, and terrifying heat waves scorched the entire sect. Many Disciples' hair turned yellow and curled, their bodies dehydrated, and the buildings caught fire.

But Li Qi remained unmoved. He stayed hidden deep within the Void Realm, intently watching Lord Fuyang's every move.

Just as Lord Fuyang launched his attack, Li Qi finally seized the moment when his mind was relaxed… and unleashed a Sword Qi!

The Qingming Heaven was just an imperceptible point, not only hidden deep within the Void Realm but also capable of moving freely. Therefore, the Sword Qi Li Qi unleashed was extremely close, less than a foot away from Lord Fuyang!

It was almost touching Lord Fuyang's body!

At such close range, and with both Li Qi and Lord Fuyang being Peak Land Immortals, the latter had almost no way to dodge. Li Qi's strike was successful, directly piercing Lord Fuyang's skull with his Sword Qi!

A massive force from the Sword Qi struck, sending Lord Fuyang's body flying, his corpse soaring several miles away!

Li Qi's strike was successful, but the great sun in the sky was still falling, capable of leveling the land below in a short while!

"Hmph!"

Li Qi let out a cold snort, and another violent Sword Qi was unleashed upwards from the Void Realm, like a reversed celestial river, sweeping towards the great sun above.

The great sun was directly cut in half by Li Qi's Sword Qi!

Boundless flames exploded in the sky!

The fire was so bright it was blinding!

Another clear crane cry sounded, and Li Qi unleashed another massive Sword Qi. The Sword Qi twisted and deformed in mid-air, transforming into a pair of giant crane wings.

The crane wings folded and wrapped around, forming a shield that completely protected the Pine Crane Longevity Sect below the flames.

Lord Fuyang's attack and Li Qi's surprise assault happened in an instant, and the outcome was decided. Everyone in the Pine Crane Longevity Sect looked up at the boundless flames above, and the Crane Wing Sword Qi crackling under the heat, so shocked they could barely react!

"What exactly is that Crane Wing Sword Qi?"

"It feels like Elder Li's Sword Qi transformation... but how could he block Lord Fuyang's Great Sun Across the Sky?!"

"Lord Fuyang is a Peak Land Immortal!"

"Could it be that Elder Li has also broken through to Land Immortal?!"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"Even the Grand Elder hasn't broken through to Land Immortal yet, how could Elder Li do it? The time is too short! It's simply not enough!"

Only Ji Zhizhang knew about Li Qi's Breakthrough to Land Immortal. None of the Disciples of the Pine Crane Longevity Sect knew, not even Pang Jing, the Sect Head. This was to prevent Lord Fuyang from knowing in advance and preparing, all for the sake of surprise!

To deliver a fatal blow to Lord Fuyang!

And this approach was indeed effective. The immediate effect of that attack just now saved the entire Pine Crane Longevity Sect, and Grand Elder Ji Zhizhang was even more excited.

"It actually succeeded! He actually did it!"

"Hahahahaha..."

While everyone was cheering and celebrating, Li Qi, who had been hidden in the Qingming Heaven, showed no signs of relaxation. On the contrary, his brows furrowed slightly.

Lord Fuyang's skull was pierced by a Sword Qi, his head almost split in half. Such an injury would have meant death for anyone else... but Lord Fuyang was not dead!

Li Qi could clearly feel that the oppressive aura emanating from Lord Fuyang in the distance had not decreased but increased!

The Qingming Heaven moved through the Void Realm, directly rushing towards Lord Fuyang.

"How interesting..."

"Your true body is hidden within the Void Realm, and you've also comprehended Sword Qi transformation. Although you're both at the Peak of the Secret Realm... you're not Ji Ying."

"Who exactly are you...?"

Lord Fuyang said with a faint smile on his face, muttering to himself.

His body lay on a mountain, and raging flames began to burn on him. These flames emitted a faint golden glow, and his injuries were rapidly recovering in these golden flames!

Li Qi in the Qingming Heaven rushed over. He had long suspected that Lord Fuyang might possess some kind of resurrection method, and seeing it today confirmed his suspicions.

Even an injury like a pierced skull could recover!

The flames on Lord Fuyang grew larger and hotter, and the temperature rose higher and higher, even causing the space around him to twist and fluctuate!

As soon as Li Qi approached Lord Fuyang, his Qingming Heaven actually fluctuated, rumbling inside, almost pushing him out of the Void Realm.

Li Qi's expression changed, and he pulled the Qingming Heaven back.

Lord Fuyang, lying on the ground, slowly stood up, looking at a certain spot in the Void Realm with a mocking smile: "What's wrong?"

"Come closer to me... why did you suddenly back away?"

He had just felt a hidden killing intent rapidly approaching him, but it hastily retreated upon touching the outer edge of the golden flames. It was clear that the fellow hidden in the Void Realm was wary of his flames.

Upon hearing this, Li Qi no longer hid and stepped out of the Qingming Heaven.

The two Peak Land Immortals confronted each other from a distance, watching each other.

"So it's you..."

Lord Fuyang's expression showed surprise. Li Qi's excessively youthful face greatly surprised him.

He had originally thought that the Land Immortal who ambushed him was some old monster, but he didn't expect the other party to be just a young junior.

"To achieve Land Immortal at such a young age, and to have comprehended a Martial Dao Divine Ability, it's truly unbelievable that Ji Ying has a Genius Disciple like you..."

"But unfortunately... today, you must die here!"

Lord Fuyang's killing intent erupted fiercely!

The two sides had only just begun to engage, and Lord Fuyang had already seen through some of the weaknesses of Li Qi's Martial Dao Divine Ability and adopted countermeasures, appearing confident of victory.

But how could Li Qi not have seen through Lord Fuyang's true capabilities?

After resurrecting from the dead using an unknown secret method, although Lord Fuyang concealed it very well, Li Qi still keenly noticed that his aura had weakened by half a percent!

It made sense; how could such a special ability that defied life and death not have side effects?

There must be a huge price!

Moreover, Lord Fuyang was worried that he would approach and ambush him, so he constantly maintained the burning of his body flames on his surface. That terrifying flame, capable of distorting space, must consume a significant amount of Qi!

It definitely couldn't be maintained for too long!

Although Lord Fuyang appeared to look down on the world and be unconcerned, Li Qi also detected a hint of anxiety emanating from him.

Li Qi also smiled and slowly pressed forward again.

"Lord Fuyang... let me test the quality of you, a Land Immortal renowned for many years!"

As soon as his words fell, a clear crane cry sounded, and terrifying Sword Qi filled the heavens and earth!

At the same time, blazing red suns appeared one after another between heaven and earth...
