16: Chapter 16: To be able to block my sword at such a young age is enough to make one the best in the world.

"Hum."

The Void Realm vibrated, and a bright moon emerged from the Void Realm, hanging in the center of the sky, illuminating all directions.

"The Bright Moon Born from the Heart of Heaven."

"The Blue Sky Goes Mad for Me."

Gu Beichen pointed at Li Qing.

The bright moon rotated.

Its radiance was like a sword.

It poured down like a rainstorm, like the Milky Way falling from the Nine Heavens.

This strike even alarmed the three women in the hall.

"Is this the Dao Body Manifestation of the Great Desolate Dao Body: The Bright Moon Born from the Heart of Heaven?" Saintess Yin Yue's eyes widened instantly.

"Senior Brother, you must hold on, I will be done soon." Mu Qiuxue gritted her teeth, her gaze fixed on Li Qing.

Luo Qiongyan glanced at the bright moon in the sky.

"A Dao Body Manifestation?"

"Truly a world-shocking Genius."

"How will you resist, Li Qing?"

"I, Luo Qiongyan, wouldn't have set my sights on a piece of trash, would I?"

Luo Qiongyan's gaze fell on Li Qing, a playful look in her eyes.

[Damn, using an ultimate move right from the start.]

[Is the Great Desolate Dao Body really that impressive?]

"Acting as if I don't have a Dao Body Manifestation myself." Li Qing smiled faintly.

"Hum."

The Void Realm vibrated, and a huge bright moon emerged from the void, like a great sun hanging in the center of the sky, illuminating all directions.

This bright moon was unimaginably huge.

Compared to it, Gu Beichen's bright moon was like the difference between a quail egg and a sesame seed cake.

"What?"

"The Bright Moon Born from the Heart of Heaven?"

Everyone was greatly shocked.

Dao Bodies in the world are unique; it is impossible for two to appear.

When Luo Qiongyan saw that huge bright moon, she was clearly stunned for a moment.

"Interesting."

"You actually possess the Great Desolate Dao Body, and it's a Major Achievement Great Desolate Dao Body at that."

"My judgment was indeed correct."

A curve appeared at the corner of Luo Qiongyan's mouth.

"Fellow Daoist Li is actually also a Great Desolate Dao Body, no wonder I feel a sense of closeness to him." Saintess Yin Yue was first shocked, then, not knowing what she thought of, her cheeks flushed red.

"Senior Brother, you really hid it deep." Seeing this, Mu Qiuxue's eyes revealed a look of pleasant surprise.

The most miserable person on the scene was Gu Beichen.

"This is impossible."

"I don't believe it."

"How could two Great Desolate Dao Bodies appear in the world?"

Gu Beichen's eyes were bloodshot, and he was panting like an ox.

"Little Gu, Uncle sees that your Dao Body Manifestation doesn't seem to have been Cultivated to completion, let me give you some pointers." Li Qing smiled.

"Hum."

The next moment, the bright moon behind him rotated slightly, its radiance like a sword, like a galaxy reversing, directly submerging Gu Beichen's bright moon.

"Pfft."

The bright moon was shattered by a single strike, and Gu Beichen spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Li Qing, don't go too far." Gu Beichen stared coldly at Li Qing.

"You have lost."

Li Qing smiled faintly.

"Ridiculous."

"Ignorant."

"I, Gu Beichen, will not be defeated."

Gu Beichen sneered.

[What are you being arrogant about? Isn't it just because you have an emperor soul inside you?]

[She just blocked an attack from the immortal corpse's lingering thought for you, I don't believe she's completely fine.]

"emperor soul?"

Hearing the inner voice, the three women were stunned.

"Revered Master, help me."

Gu Beichen shouted in his heart.

"Disciple, don't panic, Revered Master is here to help you."

A voice seemed to come from above the Nine Heavens.

"Hum."

The next moment, a terrifying Aura erupted from Gu Beichen's body, and his cultivation base soared.

"Late Nascent Soul Stage."

"Late Nascent Soul Perfection Stage."

"Early King Sealing Realm."

Gu Beichen instantly became a King Sealing Realm Expert.

[Holy crap, impossible, she's actually completely fine.]

[How can I even play this?]

[Gu Beichen, you dog, you don't follow martial virtue.]

"Screech!"

A clear cry resounded through the sky, and raging flames emerged in the Void Realm, transforming into a huge flaming divine bird.

"Vermilion Bird Demon Emperor."

Li Qing's eyes narrowed.

"Since you know my name, I will leave your corpse intact." A crisp female voice came from Gu Beichen's mouth, his eyes having turned into eyes of fire, spewing flames several feet long.

The appearance of the Demon Emperor instantly shocked Luo Qiongyan.

"How is this possible? The Vermilion Bird Demon Emperor clearly died in the Forbidden Ground, how could she still be alive?"

"Could it be... Rebirth through fire?"

Luo Qiongyan was shocked beyond measure.

"Southern Brightness Separation Fire Sword."

In the Void Realm, the huge divine bird opened its mouth and spat out a long sword burning with raging flames, which shot towards Li Qing like a fire meteor.

"Blue Sky Bright Moon Sword, go."

Li Qing formed a sword seal with his hand, the moonlight above his head gathered, transforming into a dazzling sword light, and shot towards that fire meteor.

"Bang."

However, Li Qing's attack turned to dust the moment it touched the opponent's.

"The gap is too big."

Li Qing's pupils shrank slightly.

He knew the child of destiny was hard to deal with, but he didn't expect it to be this difficult.

"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, do not bully a young man for being poor."

There was no other way, he could only shamefully recite that cheesy line.

"Hum."

The next moment, the bright moon rotated, and a brilliant sword light soared into the sky, slamming fiercely onto the fire meteor.

"Bang."

The moment the two collided, they turned directly into powder.

"Pfft."

Li Qing's face turned pale, and a mouthful of blood surged out.

"He blocked it."

Seeing this, the three women in the hall were greatly shocked.

With merely the Early Nascent Soul Stage, blocking a sword from the Demon Emperor's Dharma Idol is enough to shake the eight wastelands and six unions.

"As expected of the man I have my eye on." Luo Qiongyan smiled brightly.

"Not bad, not bad."

"To be able to block my sword at such an age is enough to be peerless in the world."

The Vermilion Bird nodded slightly, seemingly acknowledging Li Qing's strength.

"For a Genius like you, I shouldn't have used lethal force, but unfortunately, you offended Chen'er."

"Then I have no choice but to let you die."

The divine bird in the Void Realm flapped its wings, and raging flames flowed like a long river, with thousands of sword glimmers appearing, like the stars of the Nine Heavens.

"Your strength is enough to make me use this sword."

"Brilliant sword glimmers, one hundred and eight thousand swords."

[Holy crap, Vermilion Bird Demon Emperor, are you sick?]

[I got injured just blocking one sword from you, and you want me to block one hundred and eight thousand?]

[Do you want me to block it with my head?]

[Time to run, can't afford to mess with this.]

Just as Li Qing was preparing to activate the Shrinking the Ground to an Inch Divine Ability to run away.

"Hum."

Suddenly, the entire bronze hall vibrated, and a terrifying Dao charm soared into the sky, blasting the Vermilion Bird Dharma Idol to pieces with a single strike.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

The next moment, Mu Qiuxue and the other two women were shaken out of the hall, and then the bronze hall was swallowed by the Void Realm and disappeared.

"Pfft."

At this moment, Gu Beichen suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

His King Sealing Realm cultivation base began to rapidly drop to the Middle Stage of the Nascent Soul Stage.

At the same time, a flame wrapped around Gu Beichen's body, and he turned into a streak of light and quickly flew away.

"Li Qing, for today's matter, I will repay you a hundredfold in the future."

Only then did Gu Beichen's cold voice come from the horizon.

"What's going on?" Li Qing was confused.

Wasn't that immortal corpse Gu Beichen's Opportunity? Why did it disappear?

"Fellow Daoist Li, I feel like I am about to have an Awakening, I must return to the sect immediately, and after the Awakening, I will definitely visit to thank you." After greeting Li Qing, Saintess Yin Yue hurried away.

"Opportunities also have time limits." Luo Qiongyan seemed to see the confusion in Li Qing's heart and smiled.

"Senior Brother, my Physique seems to be about to have a Breakthrough, I must return to the sect immediately." Mu Qiuxue pulled on Li Qing's sleeve.

"Let's go."

Li Qing dispersed his Dao Body Manifestation, took Mu Qiuxue, activated the Shrinking the Ground to an Inch Divine Ability, and quickly flew away.

"Running so fast, am I really that unappealing to you?"

"Heh, the monk can run, but the temple can't."

"Just obediently wait for me to come and propose marriage."

Luo Qiongyan covered her mouth and chuckled, her charm overflowing for a moment.
