344: A great battle erupted, showcasing Mu Qingling's formidable strength.
The Third Elder felt goosebumps rising all over his skin, his face filled with horror.
Previously, because the sword beam released by Mu Qingling seemed relatively weak, he hadn't deliberately investigated it. However, as the sword beam reached him, the Third Elder felt the terrifying power contained within.
How is this possible!
How could an Early Stage Immortal Lord possess such terrifying Sword Intent?
Qiu Qian reacted the fastest. He immediately sensed something was wrong, and his figure instantly appeared in front of the Third Elder, preparing to intercept it for him.
Just at that moment.
That sword beam suddenly erupted with an extremely dazzling light, and the sky-filling Sword Intent was instantly released, exploding with a roar like a massive bomb.
"Puff!"
The Third Elder was seen flying backward, his aura weak and blood flowing incessantly; he had clearly suffered a heavy blow.
Qiu Qian's situation was equally unpleasant. His clothes were torn, and countless sword marks appeared on his body, some even deep enough to see the bone.
What!
At this moment.
Everyone watching was shocked by the scene before them.
The strength Mu Qingling displayed was truly a bit too shocking, leaving the expressions of everyone from the Lingyun Sect filled with utter blankness and confusion.
Even the Sect Head couldn't block it.
One must know that the Sect Head is a Half-step Immortal Venerable expert; anyone who could defeat him would have to be an Immortal Venerable, right?
But now, the Sect Head had been made to look so pathetic by an Early Stage Immortal Lord, giving them all an extremely absurd feeling.
The Immortal Realm is unlike the Lower Realm, where fighting across levels often occurs.
For immortal Cultivators, especially powerful ones, it is almost very difficult to fight across levels.
For instance, in the Immortal Lord Realm, it's nearly impossible for an Early Stage Immortal Lord to defeat a Middle Stage one. If someone can, they can be called a Prodigy.
As for the Immortal Venerable Realm, instances of fighting across levels and winning are very rare.
Yet Mu Qingling, at the Early Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm, possessed strength rivaling a Half-step Immortal Venerable. Such a feat was something even the strongest Immortal Lord Prodigies of the Myriad Star Realm could not achieve.
Too monstrous!
Qiu Qian also looked at Mu Qingling with a grave expression. The stinging pain coming from his body forced him to take this female Sword Cultivator seriously.
Such strong Sword Intent!
That blow just now was blocked by both him and the Third Elder together, yet even so, one was heavily injured and the other lightly wounded.
A single strike from an Early Stage Immortal Lord could actually put a Late Stage Immortal Lord and a Half-step Immortal Venerable in such a state; this was truly a bit ridiculous.
Qiu Qian wanted to heal his injuries, but his Physical Body recovered at an extremely slow pace.
The residual Sword Intent Mu Qingling left in his body was preventing him from repairing his Physical Body.
Qiu Qian looked up again and said with cold eyes, "You have a Sword Physique. To have such terrifying Sword Intent at the Early Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm, it must be at least the twelfth layer or higher."
"It seems I cannot let you live today."
For an Early Stage Immortal Lord to comprehend the twelfth layer of Sword Intent was simply too terrifying. If she were allowed to Breakthrough to Immortal Venerable, what would happen then?
Sword Physique!
This Physique is not considered very rare in the Immortal Realm.
But the Sword Physique is a double-edged sword. If one has many opportunities, this Physique is not inferior to any other. In the later stages, it can even be more powerful than the top-ranked Grandmist Immortal Physique.
However, the restrictions on a Sword Physique are too many.
Comprehending Sword Intent requires extremely Heaven-Defying Comprehension Ability, while breaking through with a Sword Physique requires a massive amount of resources. Even Immortal Venerable Cultivators like them cannot afford to raise such a gold-swallowing beast.
Because the resources needed for a Sword Physique increase in the later stages, selling the Lingyun Sect might not even be enough to let a Sword Physique Breakthrough to the Immortal Venerable Realm.
Therefore, in the Immortal Realm, although the Sword Physique is powerful, it is not well-known.
Many Cultivators even choose to cripple their own Physique after being born with a Sword Physique and Cultivate in a normal way.
Qiu Qian's voice was incomparably cold: "Elders, kill her with me!"
Seeing this, the others from the Lingyun Sect no longer continued to watch. Their auras were revealed one by one, and the terrifying pressure plunged countless people into boundless fear.
Mu Qingling's somewhat delicate body just stood quietly in the Void Realm, her eyes always remaining incomparably calm.
Even the combined forces of the Lingyun Sect's experts could not make her feel the slightest bit of fear.
She gently raised the sword in her hand, and the surging Sword Intent within her body was released.
Mu Qingling stood alone against dozens of Lingyun Sect experts. This scene left those watching in the shadows with solemn faces.
Regardless of whether she could win this battle, Mu Qingling's grace today would be remembered forever.
Below.
The people of the Su Family were full of worry, but their strength was low and they couldn't go up to help, so they could only worry anxiously below.
Su Qingtian said helplessly, "It seems we must call for Su Chen this time."
Su Yunqian shook his head with a grave expression: "Don't worry, Big Brother. Mu Qingling is Su Chen's Disciple; he would never allow her to perish."
Su Qingtian looked at Mu Qingling's beautiful figure and couldn't help but sigh softly.
"We could say we watched Mu Qingling grow up. A junior from back then is now walking ahead of us."
"Once this matter is over, we must properly supervise the Su Family's cultivation. Su Chen's third Disciple, Han Li, is now almost breaking through to the Immortal Lord Realm. We are truly a bit embarrassed."
Without Su Qingtian saying it, Su Yunqian and the others felt a bit ashamed.
The Su Family enjoyed a massive amount of resources, yet their Breakthrough speed was so slow; it was indeed a bit awkward.
But there was a reason for this. Although many in the Su Family had their Physiques improved, once they reached the Immortal Realm, Comprehension Ability was sometimes more important than Aptitude.
This was precisely their weak point.
So their Breakthrough speed was relatively average.
Of course, if an outsider heard this, they would probably burst out in curses.
The Breakthrough speed of the Divine Court in these years could almost be described as ridiculously fast. Anyone picked out at random would be comparable to a Prodigy.
And they still thought it was slow?
Just at this moment.
Mu Qingling raised her hand and waved, the long sword in her hand carrying a boundless rainbow, charging directly towards the people of the Lingyun Sect.
Facing a group of experts, she did not choose to wait for death but took the initiative to attack.
Although she could rival a weak Early Stage Immortal Venerable when using all her trump cards, it was still very difficult to defeat so many people from the Lingyun Sect.
Therefore, Mu Qingling had to disrupt their formation to have a chance to find a way to survive.
Her heart was incomparably serious. In this battle, I must display the style of the Lingxiao Sect.
Mu Qingling knew that her Revered Master must be watching her right now.
"Sky Breaker!"
Mu Qingling shouted loudly, and her Sword Intent instantly erupted. A boundless majesty spread, and a sword arc that seemed capable of destroying everything struck towards the people of the Lingyun Sect.
This strike was Mu Qingling's strongest sword.
Qiu Qian's face was full of gravity: "Block it!"
The immortal power within the experts erupted as they did their best to block the Sword Intent. At the same time, the Grand Elder's figure instantly disappeared from his spot, and a terrifying killing intent was released from his body.
The next moment.
The Grand Elder of the Lingyun Sect appeared beside Mu Qingling, holding a cone-shaped weapon and smashing it towards her head.
If this blow landed, Mu Qingling would be heavily injured at the very least.
But Mu Qingling was not flustered. Her body disappeared from the spot like a phantom.
But the Grand Elder of the Lingyun Sect pursued her relentlessly, giving Mu Qingling no chance to gather her Sword Intent...
