64: Why is it that Cao Cao and Li Shi have revealed their trump card?

Outside the Sword Tomb, Li Clan Chief Li Shihao was discussing secret matters with the Void Sword Walker.

Suddenly, the entire Sword Tomb began to tremble.

Following that, brilliant sword lights soared into the sky, dragging multicolored Sword Qi toward one direction.

"What is going on!"

Li Shihao was greatly alarmed, fixing his gaze upon them... one, two, three... a full thirty-six Flying Swords were dancing wildly in the air!

Seen from afar, they looked like a brilliant rainbow of Sword Qi, truly magnificent.

"This... how is this possible!"

"Tianshu, Tianquan... Tiankui, this, this, this, this..."

He was stunned; this Clan Chief who had managed the Sword Tomb for over a hundred years was completely dumbfounded.

The Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Flying Swords!

These were the top-tier Flying Swords within the Li Clan Sword Tomb, second only to the seven swords of absolute gods.

The Li Clan had controlled the Sword Tomb for over a thousand years, and many Li Clan Disciples throughout the generations had received the acknowledgment of a spirit sword.

But only these Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Flying Swords were extremely arrogant.

Let alone receiving their acknowledgment, it was difficult to even stir their Sword Intent.

Who would have thought that today, they would automatically recognize a master!

"Who is it!"

Li Shihao's eyes flashed like lightning, and he immediately saw Cao Meng surrounded by the immortal swords in the center.

"It's him!"

"This Thief Cao, how is this possible!"

"The Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Swords! Why is it not a Li Clan Disciple who received their acknowledgment!"

Killing intent surged in Li Shihao's eyes.

"However, it doesn't matter. This boy is about to die anyway! What use is being a Prodigy then?"

"Sacrificing a Prodigy with blood should be quite satisfying!"

"Thief Cao, it's you again!" Xu Tian's bloodshot eyes were filled with resentment and jealousy.

Why must it be this Thief Cao!

Is his existence merely to highlight my failure and incompetence?

Women are like this!

Flying Swords are also like this!

Could this guy be the Son of the Plane?

"This master is indeed powerful!" The Void Sword Walker glanced from afar, then said to Li Shihao:

"Brother Shihao, when do you plan to make your move?"

"No rush!"

Li Shihao smiled cruelly: "Once this boy reaches the Absolute God Sword Boundary, the Li Clan seven swords will act, using his fresh blood to sacrifice to my clan's seven swords of absolute gods."

"Once the blood sacrifice is complete, the Seven Sword Immortals can each take control of an ancient divine sword..."

Just then, a Black-Robed Person quickly walked in, bowed, and knelt down:

"Reporting to Clan Chief, Wu Feiyan has left the White Deer Academy, and her whereabouts are unknown!"

"Furthermore, the Peerless General Shen Qingluan is personally leading three thousand God-Slaying Guards and one hundred thousand Divine Strategy Army, moving toward the Sword Tomb!"

"The Great Liang Imperial Legion is stationed one hundred miles outside the hidden camp, ready to strike!"

"And also..." The Black-Robed Person stopped abruptly halfway through his report.

"And what else?" Li Shihao frowned.

The Black-Robed Person nervously said: "The Holy Empress of Great Liang said that she wants us to spare Cao Meng's life. If we kill Cao Meng, she will show no mercy!"

"What?" Li Shihao's expression changed drastically.

"What does this Xuanyuan Baizhi want to do?" The Unscrupulous Sword Immortal Li Wuliang couldn't help but interject:

"Isn't she and Wu Feiyan mortal enemies? Why would she make such a request! Is she insane?... Clan Chief, how should we respond to this matter?"

Li Shihao's face flickered between dark and light moods, and finally, he waved his hand:

"Stick to the plan. Cao Meng sacrificing to the sword is the core of this plan to eliminate Wu, and it cannot be changed! As long as our plan succeeds, Xuanyuan Baizhi will have no choice but to bow her head!"

"seven swords!"

"Patriarch!" The Seven Absolute Sword Immortals bowed in unison.

"Go! It is time for you to display your glory!"

"Yes!" The Seven Sword Immortals answered in unison, then filed into the Sword Tomb.

Only then did the Void Sword Walker curiously ask:

"Brother Shihao, what exactly is your plan? You can reveal everything now, right?"

Li Shihao smiled smugly: "This plan is top secret. Besides myself and two Sword Elders, no one else in the entire Li Clan knows about it, including the two supervisors, Wuliang and Su Rui."

"But now that the bait is in position, there is no need for concealment!"

As he spoke, his long, cold, and severe eyes swept over the standing Li Clan Disciples before him.

"Twenty-five years ago, Wu Feiyan colluded with the Eight Pillar States, destroyed my Li Clan's territory, and sealed my Li Clan Sword Tomb!"

"This hatred and resentment must be settled today!"

"Our plan is simple: first, use Cao Meng's sacred spirit blood to sacrifice to my clan's seven swords of absolute gods. Then, the Seven Sword Immortals will wield the seven swords, unite with the Holy Empress of Great Liang, achieve success in one battle, eliminate the Empress Wu, wipe out the Eight Pillar States, and retake the Li Clan's territory!"

"For this, seven Elders of my clan in the Land Immortal Realm did not hesitate to damage their Lifespan, accepting the infusion of divine sword Qi to forcibly achieve the Sword Immortal Realm!"

"With seven Sword Immortals wielding the ancient Absolute God Swords, slaying Saints and destroying Immortals will be effortless."

"Adding you and me, two Saint Domain experts, two Sword Elders, plus three other Li Clan Sword Immortals in the Land Immortal Realm, and the six hundred Sword Slaves secretly cultivated by my Sword Tomb, it is enough to change the world!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the hundreds of Li Clan Disciples before him were boiling with excitement.

The frustration of being trapped in the Sword Tomb and White Deer Academy for over twenty years,

could finally be vented completely!

Revenge could finally be taken!

"So that's it!" The Void Sword Walker's eyes flashed with brilliance.

"Sword Elders? What Sword Elders? Why have I never heard of them?" Su Rui looked at Clan Chief Li Shihao in astonishment.

The Li Clan Elders and Disciples also cast curious glances toward Li Shihao.

Clearly, they also did not know that the Li Clan possessed such a hidden trump card.

The Void Sword Walker smiled smugly: "The existence of the two Sword Elders is only known to successive Li Clan Chiefs. If the two Sword Elders hadn't fallen into slumber more than twenty years ago, how could the mere Eight Pillar States have succeeded in their Heaven-Defying act!"

Upon hearing this, Su Huli's expression changed slightly.

This is troublesome!

Li Shihao glanced toward the Sword Tomb, "Time is almost up. Wuliang, you first lead three hundred Sword Slaves to form the Demon-Slaying Sword Array, launch an attack in one hour, pierce through the God-Slaying Guards and the Divine Strategy Army, and seize the opportunity to eliminate the Divine General Qingluan. If Wu Feiyan tries to rescue her, our Li Clan experts will naturally arrive!"

"Yes!"

Li Wuliang bowed in response.

"Alright, everyone, you will soon witness the sharpness of my Li Clan's greatest treasure, the seven swords of absolute gods!"

Inside the Sword Tomb.

Cao Meng slowly opened his eyes. Around him, thirty-six Flying Swords were ringing out competitively.

"The Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Swords!"

"Drinking blood, recognizing a master?"

"F*ck, so you actively recognized me as your master because you wanted my sacred spirit blood, hoping to use my sacred spirit blood to restore your Sword Essence!"

Sword Intent intertwined, and Cao Meng could clearly sense the vague messages transmitted by the thirty-six spirit swords.

Cao Meng was speechless.

So these Thirty-Six Swords are just a bunch of starving ghosts!

Am I just a blood-supplying baby in your eyes?

"Let me see if you are worth it!"

Cao Meng moved, throwing an Appraisal Technique toward one of the purple Flying Swords:

[Tianshu] One of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Flying Swords [High Grade Spiritual Artifact, Sword Essence Damaged, Recoverable]

Single Sword State: Sword Dao Power +100%

Six Sword Array: Sword Dao Power +250%

Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Sword Array: Sword Dao Power +500%

Note: Open Sword Array, array power can be increased by improving the quantity and quality of Flying Swords.

"Not bad, worth the effort!" Cao Meng was overjoyed.
