Chapter 594 - An Invincible Pair of Broadswords

Chapter 594 An Invincible Pair of Broadswords

Of course, Li Mu did not make the Resurrection Elixirs himself.

He bought these “online”.

At that time, Li Mu was thinking that once he went deep into the tiger’s den and his identity got exposed, he would be constantly engaged in fierce battles. For that reason, he purchased a ton of armors, weapons, and elixirs on the Immortal Net. Since those items were all indispensable, he did not hesitate to buy in bulk.

He had almost used up all of the gold-colored fairy crystals he had earned in Gold Town.

But that didn’t matter.

After all, he could always earn more gold-colored fairy crystals by doing the stone gambling. With the powers of the Third Eye, Li Mu would have no trouble winning the game. But if he got killed, then he would lose everything.

These elixirs could save lives at critical moments.

However, compared with the brotherhood, his life was nothing.

The brotherhood came first than anything.

Therefore, although Li Mu did not know what relationship Zuo Qingqing and Younger Liu had with his big brother, now that his big brother had been protecting them at all costs, he decided to protect them as if they were his friends, too.

Since they were his friends, how could the Resurrection Elixirs value more than their lives?

Li Mu was never a stingy person.

Zuo Qingqing and Younger Liu both swallowed the elixirs. At once, they felt a warm current surging in their bodies and a tingling sensation from the wounds. It turned out that the wounds were becoming scarred and healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even the natural qi they had consumed had been replenished.

In the meantime—

On the opposite side, the masters of the law enforcement team of the Tianyi Palace had formed a sword deployment. The sword light crushed toward the four layer upon layer as if mountains were collapsing or tides were sweeping across, making the airflow spin backward. It was suffocating.

In Zuo Qingqing’s and Younger Liu’s eyes, the situation was still critical.

Because the cultivators of the law enforcement team besieging them far outnumbered them.

The two were so nervous that they couldn’t breathe. Subconsciously, they both gripped their weapons.

But what happened the next second made them feel like they were in a dream.

The slender figure held an ancient broadsword in his hand and marched toward the law enforcement team. After he hacked once, the man in the law enforcement team who was in the lead was vertically cut into two pieces. Then, the broadsword swept horizontally. Instantly, the long sword held by a member of the law enforcement team on the left side snapped, and the man’s chest was shockingly dented. Blood spurted from his mouth as he was sent flying backward and knocked over the two members behind him!

How savage!

How terrifying!

The slender figure was simply a human-shaped behemoth.

The sword deployment was instantly torn open.

The slender figure brandished his broadsword and made his way forward again.

The broadsword met no resistance in its path.

The disciples of the Tianyi Palace who could join in the law enforcement team were all best among the elites. They were at or above the early stage of the Mortal Realm. They were the top ones indeed. Moreover, the swords in their hands and the armors they wore were all top Taoist instruments. It could be said that they were armed to the teeth and had extraordinary combat capability.

But as it turned out, in this brief face-to-face encounter, a member of the team had been killed and several been injured!

Even Mu Shun, who was standing on the luxurious flying shuttle in a distance, could not help but gasp in horror, not to mention how shocked Zuo Qingqing and Younger Liu were.

“He is this strong?”

“I don’t know where this person came from. He shouldn’t be a member of the All-directional Star Bureau. Because when we attacked the All-directional Star Bureau, he was not there to fight us,” a trusted subordinate beside Mu Shun hurriedly explained.

Mu Shun nodded.

Now that he was not a member of the All-directional Star Bureau, he must be a friend of Guo Yuqing’s.

Could it be that he came from the inferior world as well?

He couldn’t happen to be Li Mu the Wild Broadsword, could he?

Mu Shun intently watched the battle below. In the end, he shook his head slightly.

The man’s way of fighting, his strikes and moves, Cultivation Methods, and the broadsword in his hand were not Li Mu’s style at all. So, he should not be Li Mu... Nevertheless, these were not material.

Because tonight, no one could escape.

He waved his hand.

The surrounding flying shuttles slowly descended and pressed forward.

On the decks, the strings of the Star-demolishing Bows were pulled back one after another, and the arrows were aimed at the fighting crowd below.

The Star-demolishing Bow, which was specially made in the galaxy, was a divine weapon that could restrain experts below the Soldier Realm. It was often used in a fight when the enemies were outnumbered. If an army used those bows in a long-distance sneak attack and sent tens of thousands of arrows at the enemies at the same time, even high-level experts in the Mortal Realm would not be able to survive.

The major sects in the universe, such as the Heavenly Devil Sect, the Tianyi Palace, the Blood Sea, were powerful because they not only had numerous disciples but also had far more weapons than other smaller forces. Their strength in every aspect was strong enough to pulverize other forces.

It was also for this reason that most of the rogue cultivators didn’t dare to show off in front of the big sects.

A cruel sneer appeared on the corner of Mu Shun’s mouth. He raised his arm and flung it forward.

On the other flying shuttles, the crossbowmen released their hands, and the Star-demolishing Arrows silently shot out. There was not even a sound when the arrows traveled in the air. Like fine threads in a rainy night, the arrows darted toward Zuo Qingqing and the others.

“Look out!” Guo Yuqing smelled the danger before Zuo Qingqing and Younger Liu did.

The slender figure sent a member of the law enforcement team flying with a slash and said, “Don’t worry. Leave it to me.”

Before his voice had died away, a dim light flashed in a broadsword case behind his head.

“Clank, clink, clank!”

All of a sudden, dazzling sparks burst out in the air. The Star-demolishing Arrows were blocked about ten meters away from the four of them. As if having hit an invisible wall, the arrows cracked and exploded before the splinters shot backward.

Countless dark flying broadswords were whizzing around and crisscrossed each other, forming an impenetrable broadsword wall that intercepted all the Star-demolishing Arrows.

This scene was bizarre and thrilling.

The rain had blurred the view.

It was not until this moment that Zuo Qingqing and Younger Liu realized that the Star-demolishing Arrows had quietly come at them. They were so appalled that they broke out in a cold sweat.

The Star-demolishing Arrow’s fierce reputation was well-known.

Its name made many experts in the Mortal Realm tremble with fear when they heard of it.

They didn’t expect that the Tianyi Palace could have dispatched a crossbows troop in such a short time. It could be imagined that if the two were facing the attack alone, they would have been hit by so many Star-demolishing Arrow that they now looked like hedgehogs.

“It’s impolite not to return the favor!” the slender figure bellowed in a low voice.

At the same instant, on the descending flying shuttling, there was a sudden cry of astonishment.

Streams of dim light flickered.

The strings of the Star-demolishing Bows held by the crossbowman on the deck were cut off by sharp light in the dark night. The fierce aura of the light was so overwhelming that it nearly sliced the crossbowman’s throats open.

Before changing and repairing the bowstrings, the crossbowmen could no longer shoot any Star-demolishing Arrows.

“It’s flying broadswords... Look out!”

The expression of the captain of the crossbow troop changed drastically. He jumped up, abandoned the crossbow, and picked up a sword as he shouted in a low voice.

It was not until then that the crossbowmen realize that the beams of flashing dim light were flying broadswords.

In the dark, rainy night, willow leaf-shaped flying broadswords dashed back and forth among them as if sharks that had smelled blood in the dark currents. The broadswords zoomed with no sound and flew in all directions as though they were living creatures. Their tracks were mystifying. And under the cover of the rain, they had restrained their killing intent and kept looking for prey.

The compelling sense of extreme danger made the hair of those disciples stand on end.

The flying broadswords had concealed themselves so well that no one noticed them a moment ago.

The disciples with shields stepped forward. They activated the Star Shield, forming a shield deployment to protect the crossbowmen behind them.

Seeing this scene, the slender figure on the ground knew that the flying broadswords could no longer work. He ran his Cultivation Method, and the willow leaf-shaped flying broadswords instantly flew back to a case he had carried on his back as if swallows returning to their nest.

Enemies were on all sides.

More masters of the Tianyi Palace were coming.

The situation was not optimistic.

The slender figure and Guo Yuqing exchanged a look and understood that they could not let the fight continue any longer.

“Go to the west and rush out of the encirclement first. I’ll hold them back,” the slender figure said in an undertone.

Guo Yuqing nodded. Then, he led Zuo Qingqing and Younger Liu to break out of the siege in the west without hesitation.

“But he...” Zuo Qingqing looked at the slender figure, a little worried.

That figure, like a demonic tiger, dashed to the soldiers who were flooding toward them.

Curiously, another extremely heavy broadsword was already in his hand. The two large broadswords, each of which should be held with both hands, were grabbed in his right and left hand respectively. He waved them as if they were as light as grass, which almost seemed weightless. However, when the broadswords struck, they carried a great deal of clout.

Members of the law enforcement team were sent flying like rag dolls.

For a moment, none of the opponents was a match for him.

“He is amazing.”

Zuo Qingqing and Younger Liu opened their mouths wide in shock.

Judging by the fluctuations of natural qi this slender figure was emitting, he was at best in the Mortal Realm. But why were the ordinary moves and broadsword-using techniques he cast so horrifying?

Dozens of members of the law enforcement team were pinned down and unable to chase after Zuo Qingqing and the other two.

At the last moment, Zuo Qingqing looked back and saw countless members of the law enforcement team swarming in. They had surrounded the slender figure like a tide and eventually blocked him from sight.

Panting heavily, the three of them finally broke out of the siege.

They went all the way to the west.

The roars and cries behind them gradually faded away.

Under the guidance of Guo Yuqing, the three of them came to a deserted, dilapidated courtyard and made it their temporary hiding place.

it was freezing cold.

The rain was getting heavier.

Raindrops seemed to have formed into strings of beads and keep pouring like a waterfall. It directly covered up the darkest night before dawn.

The water on the ground had already been knee-deep.

If it went on like this, there would be a huge flood.

About half an hour later.

The rain still didn’t seem to stop any sooner.

Time ticked by.

Zuo Qingqing was pacing back and forth in a shabby room. From time to time, she looked out through the battered window frame with a worried look on her face.

Younger Liu had already fallen asleep. His cultivation had barely reached the Worm Realm. After such a huge fight, he had consumed a lot of his spiritual power and physical strength, so it was difficult for him to stay awake.

Guo Yuqing was sitting cross-legged on the floor with a calm look on his face. He was recovering his strength.

“Brother Guo, he will be fine, won’t he? Why hasn’t he come to meet us yet?” Zuo Qingqing couldn’t help but ask.

Guo Yuqing opened his eyes and said, “Don’t worry. Those people can’t do anything to him.”

His tone showed that he had great faith in that figure.

“Is he... your friend?” Zuo Qingqing was very curious. If Guo Yuqing was a man who had entered the Void-breaking Realm and come here from the inferior world, who would the slender figure be? Given his power, he should not be a nobody.

Before Guo Yuqing could say anything, another voice came from outside the window—

“Of course not his friend.”

The door of the shabby house was pushed open.

It was that slender figure.

He crossed the door and came in. With two crossed broadswords on his back, he came in with a gust of cold wind and rain. Hearing his bright and clear voice, the others could not help but start to trust him.

Guo Yuqing stood up with a smile on his face.

Younger Liu also woke up from his deep sleep. When he saw the slender figure, his face lit up with joy.

Zuo Qingqing was elated. It was as if a heavy stone had been removed from her heart. She heaved a sigh of relief and then asked curiously, “Not a friend? Then why...”

The slender figure said, “We’re brothers.”

He came to Guo Yuqing, hugged him excitedly, and said, “Big Brother, why did you come to Star Wind City?”

“I came here to look for you.” Guo Yuqing couldn’t hide his excitement in his tone.

He did come here to see Li Mu.

Back then, Li Mu announced that he was doing closed-door training in Taibai City. Only a few people, including Guo Yuqing, knew that Li Mu had actually stepped on the Path and left the Divine Land.

Those people had been very worried about Li Mu.

They had also missed Li Mu very much.

Over the past few years, the Divine Land had changed a lot. As the tide of Spiritual Qi rose, the Spiritual Qi on the Divine Land kept increasing. More and more experts in the Void-breaking Realm appeared, and many of them directly stepped into the universe and left the Divine Land.

Guo Yuqing’s cultivation had already reached the Void-breaking Realm before Li Mu left. Over the years, even though he didn’t practice anymore, his cultivation continued to increase. In the end, his power could no longer be subject to the laws of heaven and earth on the Divine Land. But since he couldn’t abandon his wife and children, he cut himself with his broadsword and forcibly suppressed his cultivation. This way, he managed to stay on the Divine Land.

But several months ago, things changed.

“Miss Hua has risen from the Divine Land three months ago and stepped into the universe,” Guo Yuqing said.

Scandalized by the news, Li Mu cried, “What? How was that possible?”
