532: He Ni's glorious deeds, the God King opened the sky and showed his power

“They’re here!”

As Youmeng’s voice fell, an old man with kind eyes and a benevolent expression arrived, riding on auspicious clouds.

Ancestor Crane stroked his long beard, a gentle smile on his face, like a benevolent elder.

“Limitless Path Friend, what great fortune you have,” he praised.

Gu Qing feigned opening his eyes, glanced at Ancestor Crane, and spoke indifferently: “What is it?”

Hearing this, Ancestor Crane put away his smile and said with a solemn expression: “This humble one discovered a formation, suspected to be the inheritance relic of an ancient great deity. However, the guardian formation is too profound to be deciphered. This humble one heard that Path Friend possesses a divine halberd that can break through all restrictions…”

“Not interested!” Gu Qing shook his head and refused before he could finish.

To him, no great deity’s inheritance was as important as comprehending the great dao divine runes.

Besides, this old fellow merely wanted to lure him into a trap; Gu Qing was too lazy to play along.

If you want to make a move, do it quickly.

If he wasn’t afraid of arousing suspicion and scaring them away, Gu Qing would have already made the first move.

“Limitless Path Friend, that is the inheritance of a mighty being beyond the Seventh Realm of Immortal Emperor. Is Path Friend truly not interested at all?”

Ancestor Crane still didn’t want to give up, his gaze fixed on the Creation Green Lotus.

As soon as Gu Qing left the Creation Green Lotus, he would immediately cast a curse.

Gu Qing saw through the old fellow’s scheme at a glance and simply indulged him.

To avoid the old fellow’s endless chatter.

“Whoosh!”

Ancestor Crane did not disappoint Gu Qing. The moment the Creation Green Lotus disappeared, he silently cast a curse on Gu Qing.

Gu Qing offered no resistance. As the curse landed on him, Gu Qing allowed the Calamity Black Dragon to devour it.

It had no effect on him whatsoever.

“Attack!”

Seeing the curse enter Gu Qing’s body, Ancestor Crane was ecstatic and shouted, and from his wide sleeve, three thousand snow-white immortal swords flew out.

Each immortal sword was a Half-Immortal Emperor Artifact, gleaming with cold light and exuding sharp sword dao laws.

A Half-Immortal Emperor Artifact possesses Immortal Emperor divine runes, but they are incomplete, hence it is only considered a Half-Immortal Emperor Artifact.

A Half-Immortal Emperor Artifact is much more powerful than an Immortal King Artifact. Three thousand Half-Immortal Emperor Artifacts combined unleashed boundless terrifying power.

Buzz!

The three thousand immortal swords instantly formed a sword formation, transforming the heavens and earth. The entire void and all ten thousand rules shattered, turning into a sword realm, giving rise to endless sword energy.

“That’s something.”

Divine light flowed in Gu Qing’s eyes as he scanned the sword formation. It was indeed quite impressive.

The sword formation was flawless, capable of cycling endlessly to generate infinite sword energy, crushing everything.

Formation divine abilities are inherently stronger than simple divine abilities, as formations can borrow the power of heaven and earth, are augmented by numerous magical treasures, and are supported by the power of formation dao.

If a strong expert of the same level were trapped by the Small Chiliocosm Sword Formation and lacked powerful magical treasures, they would surely be exhausted to death, with no other path but death.

If the formation artifacts are powerful enough, it is even possible to slay enemies beyond one’s own realm.

It’s no wonder some people are willing to trade an Innate Spirit Treasure for a set of formation artifacts.

The Small Chiliocosm Sword Formation is an invincible sword formation divine ability of the same level, and also a powerful group attack divine ability.

At the same time, it can also serve as a great protective formation for a clan, safeguarding it from powerful enemies.

The utility of the Small Chiliocosm Sword Formation is immense, far surpassing that of a single Innate Spirit Treasure.

As he pondered, infinite sword energy surged forth like a cascading river from the heavens.

Gu Qing remained composed. With a thought, he summoned the Creation Green Lotus, and layers of shields emerged.

The majestic river of sword energy impacted the green lotus shield, but couldn’t even break through the first layer.

Ancestor Crane was stunned by the sight.

One must know, these were immortal swords he had refined for countless years from his main body’s feathers, and they were connected to his will.

Ancestor Crane had also deduced the Small Chiliocosm Sword Formation for countless years, and its power had long surpassed the Small Chiliocosm Sword Formation created by He Ni.

In fact, Ancestor Crane believed his Small Chiliocosm Sword Formation was no less inferior to He Ni’s Grand Chiliad Sword Formation and Qiankun Sword Formation.

The combined power of three thousand Half-Immortal Emperor Artifacts formed sword energy that could destroy heavens and earth, invincible and unstoppable.

With the Small Chiliocosm Sword Formation in hand, Ancestor Crane considered himself an invincible existence, inherently in an unassailable position.

Yet now, it couldn’t even break through the green lotus shield.

Ancestor Crane’s unwavering invincible Dao Heart, which he had held firm for countless years, was slowly shattering.

“This old fellow hides himself so deeply.”

Many Immortal Emperors felt a chill in their hearts upon seeing the Small Chiliocosm Sword Formation.

The fear of being dominated by He Ni resurfaced in their minds.

During the ancient Great Battle of Creation, many powerful experts were trapped and slain by He Ni’s Grand Chiliad Sword Formation and Qiankun Sword Formation.

Once the two great sword formations were unleashed, they didn’t even know where He Ni was, and were repeatedly bombarded by endless sword energy.

Fortunately, He Ni was alone and had no allies. Only by combining their efforts from inside and outside were they able to break through the sword formation and escape with their lives.

In the end, if He Ni hadn’t courted death herself by trying to be the first to enter the Gate of Creation, and was then besieged by numerous powerful experts, she would not have fallen.

And Ancestor Crane’s sword formation, augmented by three thousand Half-Immortal Emperor Artifacts, already possessed some of the power of He Ni’s sword formations.

Even if it was slightly inferior, trapping and killing opponents of the same rank was certainly not an issue.

At least, among them, no one could shake Ancestor Crane’s Small Chiliocosm Sword Formation.

As they thought this, when they saw that the sword formation couldn’t break the Creation Green Lotus’s shield, everyone was stunned.

They had never seen a magical treasure shield so powerful.

One must know, many defensive Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures would struggle to resist the onslaught of sword energy.

“Everyone, quickly go and restrain the Creation Green Lotus. Success or failure depends on this one move.”

Ancestor Crane quickly recovered and shouted.

If they couldn’t break through the Creation Green Lotus, all their subsequent plans would be stillborn.

Ancestor Crane stared intently at Gu Qing, filled with confusion.

The curse had clearly invaded Gu Qing’s body, so why was there no effect at all?

Was it instantly annihilated by the Creation Green Lotus?

“Good!”

Everyone also understood the gravity of the situation, but they weren't overly worried.

After all, with so many of them, as long as they trapped Gu Qing, killing him was only a matter of time.

Boom!

Ancestor Crane controlled the Small Chiliocosm Sword Formation, and in an instant, it opened up an boundless space, transferring everyone into it.

Fourteen Immortal Emperors exuded the vast divine might that suppressed countless ages, as if they were supreme deities standing above the nine heavens.

However, before anyone could make a move, Gu Qing acted first.

Since everyone had arrived, there was no need for him to pretend anymore.

Gu Qing stood on the Creation Green Lotus, divine light flowing in his eyes, reflecting boundless chaos and the scene of a Divine King raising a divine axe to cleave open heaven and earth.

“Boom!”

The Divine King Opening Heaven divine ability was secretly learned by Gu Qing from Jun Lintian, and it only targeted the divine soul.

Now, having been re-deduced by Gu Qing, it was mysterious and unpredictable, ignoring defenses, and it could sever both the divine soul and the physical body.

The Divine King Opening Heaven divine ability appeared without any warning in the minds of the many Immortal Emperors, exuding an ancient, vast, and glorious divine might.

The Divine King slowly raised his divine axe and struck, cleaving open everyone’s divine souls. The terrifying axe intent tore their divine souls to shreds.

“Ah…”

The bodies of the fourteen Immortal Emperors exploded, letting out heart-wrenching screams of agony.

With a flash of light, the many Immortal Emperors reassembled, but their faces were pale, and their aura was leaking.

Evidently, Gu Qing’s single strike not only shattered their divine souls but also splintered their Dao fruits, completely destroying their foundation.

Even if they reconstructed their bodies, their strength would be less than one-tenth of what it was, and their realms were collapsing.

Gu Qing was stunned.

Is the Divine King Opening Heaven divine ability really that terrifying?

These were fourteen Immortal Emperors.

Not weaklings made of mud.

“Host, do you have some misunderstanding about the divine ability of Dao Transformation? Your cultivation is already higher than theirs; if you can’t cripple them with one strike, then what kind of Dao Transformation divine ability would it be?” Youmeng said speechlessly.

Others are blindly confident, but this Host of hers is powerful yet unaware of his own strength.

“Oh!” Gu Qing responded.

He had experienced too few battles and grown too quickly, leading to many divine abilities never having the chance to be tested.

For untested divine abilities, Gu Qing only knew they were very strong, but how strong exactly, and how much damage they could inflict on peers, Gu Qing was unsure.
