Good knife.
Ten thousand images of white light like brightly flashing.
Gouteng Taoist, upon raising the treasured sword to the midpoint of the sky, it immediately shone like a full sun, illuminating the land and heaven and earth with radiant brilliance.
The killing aura was oppressive, spreading throughout the universe, making everyone tremble in fear and not daring to move even one finger.
As if the knife-sized treasure blade was not aimed at Chen Ping, but at every living being in the myriad heavens and worlds.
The powerful killing intention layered over.
The originally bustling heavens and earth suddenly fell silent.
It was as if they had fallen into the intense cold of the southern and northern poles.
That kind of cold, is not the early spring cold, but comes from the depths of the soul.
Hundreds of people were stunned upon seeing the blade light, sensing the closeness of death.
As if, though they were still alive, they had already died.
The terrifying killing intent pierced through Beizhou, causing everything to seem as if it were about to freeze.
The treasure blade emerged, causing fear to spread through Beizhou City and the Manchu troops numbering over a hundred thousand.
Anyone could feel the infinite power emanating from this treasured blade!
Beizhou City, on the city tower.
General Zhao Da saw the people being held back by the treasured blade's blade light and the icy cold that prevented them from moving, he sighed slightly and felt compassion. He waved his sleeve, warmth returned instantly.
The cultivators and common soldiers finally broke free from the killing intent.
An old scattered cultivator with a centipede-like birthmark on his face deeply inhaled and gasped in horror: "What kind of treasure did Gouteng Taoist raise? I only saw the blade light, and it felt like falling into a millennium of ice cave."
The fisherman cultivator trembled in fear: "It's not just falling into a millennium ice cave, but the blade light flashing, I have a feeling that my spirit soul is completely severed."
The purple-dressed female cultivator trembled slightly, "What a powerful treasured blade indeed."
The remaining group of cultivators all gasped, all intimidated by the power of the treasured blade.
Kui Mu Lang smiled slightly and said, "This is thetreasure knife I have forged by gathering countless heavenly materials and earthly treasures from the myriad heavens and worlds, using the qi of Tai Bai Jin Star from Golden WhiteStar. I've spent over a hundred years fusing it with the fire of the stars to create this treasured knife named 'Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao'.”
"The Tai Bai Golden Star governs the military, change, and destruction. Its Qi can disperse all demons in the world with just a thread."
"It also combines countless treasures from the myriad heavens and worlds, in addition to the Tai Bai Golden Star's Qi of Qǐ Ming."
"Whew, no wonder this treasure is so terrifying."
"Not to mention ordinary demons, even a demon king struck by the Qi of Qǐ Ming would be annihilated in an instant."
A group of cultivators gasped.
They had already felt the endless terror from the killing intent within the treasured blade.
But they hadn't expected that this treasured blade was actually condensed from the Qi of Qǐ Ming of Tai Bai Golden Star and countless treasures from the heavens and earth.
Although Wu Luan and others didn't know how powerful the Qi of Qǐ Ming was, they were very clear about the status of Tai Bai Golden Star in mythology. They naturally understood that the "Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao" was an indescribable force.
A cultivator dressed as a farmer asked, "May I ask the celestial officer, what are the wonders of this 'Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao'?"
The common soldiers and cultivators all looked towards Kui Mu Lang, pricking up their ears.
Kui Mu Lang pondered for a moment and said, "My 'Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao' is indestructible and specializes in killing. As soon as it is raised, it transforms into the light of Qǐ Ming and can penetrate the myriad heavens and worlds. It can strike anyone who is its enemy, regardless of whether you are an immortal or your spiritual energy is invincible to all methods, it can still break through. One strike will kill it, unless there is a powerful defensive talisman, it may be able to withstand the power."
"What?"
"Immortals are also invincible?"
"The 'Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao' truly has limitless power!"
A group of cultivators in Beizhou City were shocked.
Finally, they realized just how powerful the "Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao" truly was.
Inevitably, everyone looked at Chen Yun with a full of sympathy.
Although they all knew Chen Ping was powerful, he was now only in the realm of the mortal realm.
It was impossible for him to withstand the "Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao" forged from the Qi of Qǐ Ming.
Instantaneously, everyone felt that Chen Yun would be butchered into a corpse in the next moment.
……
Correspondingly, there were also many people on the side of the Khitan army.
Zhao Yanxiu, Zhao Yanzhau, and many common soldiers did not know the profound secrets of the "Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao". They just felt that it was extremely terrifying and believed that this treasure knife was probably boundless in power.
Zhang Qian, Lin Chen, Jiang Dao and Niu Dashun, among Chen Yun's disciples, also did not know the mystery of this treasured blade. They just felt that the killing intent was everywhere and could not be opposed by ordinary people.
Jiu Shou Niu Mo Luo Wang, upon seeing the treasured blade raised, shivered all over.
He spoke out of turn, "Is this the Qi of Qǐ Ming?"
With these words, Niu Dashun, Jiang Dao, Zhang Qian, and others all changed their expressions dramatically.
Zhao Yanxiu didn't understand, asking, "Qǐ Ming Qi?"
Jiu Shou Niu Mo Luo Wang's face was solemn, "That's right, it is the Qi of Qǐ Ming from Tai Bai Golden Star."
Zhao Yanzhau asked curiously, "Very terrifying?"
Jiu Shou Niu Mo Luo Wang narrowed his eyes and explained, "Tai Bai, the Star of Gold, is named twice but is one in reality, referring to the Tai Bai Golden Star. In the East, it is the Morning Star, and in the West, it is the Evening Star. If you see it in the morning or evening without its usual time, there will be calamity!"
He had another sentence that he didn't say, if demons and ghosts touched the Qi of Qǐ Ming, they would certainly be annihilated.
Li Jing's face was slightly solemn and added, "The Qi of Qǐ Ming is specialized in killing. If it's struck, it will certainly perish instantly and lose its way. Unless…"
"Unless what?"
"Will Chen Xieren be okay?"
Zhang Qian, Lin Chen, and Chen Yun grew up together since they were young and had a close relationship. Now that they heard the "Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao" was so terrifying, they naturally worried and asked about it.
Li Jing furrowed his brow and said, "Unless it's a sacred being like the King of Chiting or the Taoist of the Eastern Pole, who has achieved sainthood with their physical body. Otherwise, one can only rely on powerful talismans for defense. I don't know if Chen Immortal has any formidable defensive talismans..."
Nao Zhao, who was competitive, said, "I am the embodiment of lotus, and I am not afraid of this Qi of Qǐ Ming."
Blowing his own horn, he also frowned slightly, "I once heard my brother Er Lang say that Chen brother had cultivated the 'Eighty-Nine Mysteries', and if he reaches the realm of immortals who have attained sainthood, naturally he won't fear this treasured blade. But he is only in the realm of mortal immortals now, so it may be somewhat dangerous."
Jiu Shou Niu Mo Luo Wang, Li Jing, and Nezha were the most highly cultivated individuals in this group. Since they did not have faith in Chen Yun, it made everyone else feel even more depressed.
Niu Dashun, Jiang Dao, Zhang Qian, and others were extremely worried and feared that Chen Yun would be killed on the spot.
……
Beizhou City was filled with excitement.
The Khitan army appeared to be very silent.
The atmosphere on both sides was completely different.
Without exception, everyone felt that Chen Yun might be buried beneath the "Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao" today.
Not only were there those with this thought among the spectators.
Also, the Daoist Gu Teng who had raised the treasured blade.
He observed that once the treasured blade was raised, Chen Yun stood still as if "dumbfounded," and he thought that Chen Yun was being overwhelmed by the light of Qǐ Ming, making him feel somewhat pleased for a moment.
Despite this, Gu Teng still had the demeanor of a great master and said, "Chen Pu, you and I have an unresolvable blood feud, but this knife is borrowed by another person. I don't want to use someone else's power to kill you. If you are willing to surrender, come with me to Beizhou City for a visit. I will then put away the 'Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao', and spare your life."
Although he had a blood feud with Chen Yun, as a great master of his generation, he had his own magnanimity and broad-mindedness.
He indeed wanted to kill Chen Yun, but he had an even greater desire to do so with his own strength, rather than relying on Kui Mu Lang's borrowed "Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao."
In Gu Teng's view, with the powerful "Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao" like that, Chen Yun would certainly be defeated and captured.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yun, who had been standing still, lightly chuckled and said, "Oh, this knife is quite powerful? Alright, I will stand still here. Let's see if your treasured blade can cut me once."
Gu Teng frowned slightly, speaking in a soft and polite manner as he reminded, "Chen Pu, don't blame the old man for not persuading you. Once that treasured blade is raised, even I cannot withdraw it. Are you truly willing to perish here?"
"Mr. Gu Teng." Chen Yun expressed his admiration, "Although we have an unresolvable blood feud and different stands, your performance today has deeply impressed me. You can raise the treasured blade at will. If I move even a fraction, you win."
Initially, Chen Yun had some dissatisfaction in his heart when the Queen Mother of the West asked him to spare Gu Teng's true body.
Now, seeing the other party's magnanimity, he couldn't help but admire him and think that sparing Gu Teng's true body might not be a bad thing after all.
Gu Teng saw Chen Yun being so "arrogant", he couldn't help but sneer coldly, "Since you are choosing your own path to death, then the old man won't be able to persuade anymore. Chen Pu, see my treasured blade!"
With that said, he brought his index and middle fingers together with his right hand and pointed at Chen Yun.
In the next moment, the "Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao" suddenly transformed into a bright flash of white light.
As if traversing through myriad heavens and worlds, it struck Chen Yun's shoulder instantly.
Clang!
A resounding noise reverberated through the air!
A burst of radiant light and sparks erupted from the point where Chen Yun's shoulder met the treasured blade.
While Gu Teng called back the treasured blade, he looked carefully and was surprised to find that Chen Pu was completely unharmed!
He was shocked and turned pale in an instant, "How could you not be killed?"
Chen Yun laughed heartily and sang, "When one understands, the cultivation reaches perfection, the profound in the profound creates birth and death; the profound arts are extraordinary, and the true body is firm, seeing great merit! The Qi of Qǐ Ming is nothing that can injure my mysterious corporeal body!"
Gu Teng heard these words and his face changed. He was truly shocked to the extreme!
……
Not to mention Gu Teng's disbelief.
Even if it were the King of Qui and Zhao Da, the Grand Commander, they would be stunned by this scene and stand there in place.
The Qi of Qǐ Ming is unstoppable and unbreakable, no matter your immortal body, but it cannot break Chen Yun's defense?
In the past, the King of Qui used the "Tai Bai Luo Mo Dao" to cut down countless powerful demons, none of whom had ever escaped his blade, including those in the realm of immortals among the demons.
Therefore, he borrowed this treasureous blade to prevent Gu Teng's cultivation from being too low and delaying the time not spent well.
He had not expected that the treasureous blade, which he was so proud of, would fail to achieve any results after the first victory in the Sealing God Battle, which made him very surprised.
The King of Qui and Zhao Da were both stupefied, and the cultivators who had not yet ascended to immortality couldn't help but murmur in amazement from the side.
"What?"
"A?"
"The treasured blade formed from the Qi of Qǐ Ming cannot harm Mr. Ni Wán?"
"Chen Master's profound arts are truly amazing!"
A crowd of people were all agape, as if they couldn't believe what had just happened.
……
On the side of the Khitan army.
Nezha, Li Jing, and Jiu Shou Niu Mo Luo Wang all reacted in the same way, showing great surprise.
In their eyes, this treasureous blade was made from the Qi of Qǐ Ming, the star of the Tai Bai Golden Star, which was dedicated to killing and indestructible. Only a being who had attained sainthood with their physical body could withstand it. Otherwise, one had to rely on defensive talismans.
So what about Chen Yun?
He seems to have neither used any defensive talismans nor achieved sainthood with his physical body, yet he managed to withstand it with no injuries at all.
To be honest, Nezha, Li Jing, and Jiu Shou Niu Mo Luo Wang were all very surprised.
Although the three sacred ones did not speak, Chen Yun's disciples and students were all greatly excited.
"Haha!"
"Teacher's profound arts are truly formidable!"
"Chen Brother's profound arts are limitless!"
"Haha! I was worried when I heard how powerful the Qi of Qǐ Ming was. Who would have thought it would be nothing more than that."
"The master's profound arts are truly amazing, the Qi of Qǐ Ming cannot harm him either, it's truly a spectacle to behold!"
Zhang Qian, Lin Chen, Jiang Dao, and Gong Juji and others were extremely excited.
It's no wonder they were so excited. After all, before Li Jing, Nezha, and Jiu Shou Niu Mo Luo Wang and other sacred ones described the treasured blade as so terrifying, making them worried. Now that their worries have been dispelled and they see Chen Yun without any harm, such a huge contrast can't help but make them excited and happy.
Zhao Yan Shou and Zhao Yan Zhao and other ordinary soldiers also breathed a sigh of relief.
One of the lieutenants laughed, "I had heard of Mr. Chen's profound arts being amazing and earth-shaking long ago, but I had never seen it with my own eyes. Today, after witnessing it, indeed, it lives up to its reputation!"
Zhao Yan Zhao nodded in agreement, "Yes, Mr. Chen's profound arts are truly impressive. The Tai Bai Golden Star is primarily associated with killing and the Qi of Qǐ Ming that it cultivates forms an indestructible treasured blade. In theory, it should be incredibly powerful, but it still cannot harm Mr. Chen."
Zhao Yan Shou said, "It seems that today's battle Mr. Chen must win, the only question now is whether Mr. Chen can capture that Gu Teng Daoist."
No one responded to this question.
Although Chen Yun had fought Gu Teng Dao for ten or more rounds earlier, it seemed that he had a significant advantage. However, up to now, he had not shown a decisive superiority.
And Gu Teng Daoist, as a celestial being in the land of immortals, if he did not have a strong desire to fight and wanted to escape, it would probably not be too difficult.
By then, as long as Gu Teng Daoist retreats back into the city of Beizhou, Chen Yun would not be able to truly pursue and kill him there.
Firstly, the city of Beizhou has Zhao Da, the Grand Commander, and Kuixi, the Star Official, guarding it.
If Chen Yun really dared to chase after him, he might be captured instantly.
Secondly, while the Sealing God Battle does not restrict the killing of mortals by immortals, generally speaking, immortals would not act in such a way.
Otherwise, many of his merits would be deducted during the time of reckoning after the Sealing God Battle.
The city of Beizhou has several thousand civilians and more than ten thousand soldiers guarding it.
If Chen Yun were to really chase after Gu Teng Daoist and engage in a great battle with him.
The people and soldiers in those places would certainly be killed on the spot.
Therefore, regardless of the first or second reason, if Chen Yun wants to capture Gu Teng Daoist, he must do so at this moment.
But on the contrary, from their performance just now, it is highly unlikely.
……
It's not difficult for Chen Yun to kill Gu Teng Daoist. As long as he unleashes the power of the "trapped and killed" law, he can do so.
The problem is, Chen Yun had promised the Queen Mother of the West not to harm Gu Teng's true body.
Therefore, no matter whether it's the power of the "slaughter" law, the "trapped and killed" law, or even powerful talismans, they cannot be used.
Take the "Ten Thousand Families' Lantern Fire" for example, if invoked, fire consumes wood, it can instantly burn Gu Teng's true body to ashes.
However, not all talismans cannot be used.
Chen Yun has a talisman in his hand that can easily kill Gu Teng.
The premise is that the opponent does not have powerful defensive talismans. Otherwise, it's highly likely that no achievements can be made.
Chen Yun has only this one chance to kill Gu Teng, so naturally, he must ensure that it is definitely successful.
Therefore, he cannot gamble that Gu Teng does not have powerful defensive talismans.
Chen Yun pretends that Gu Teng has them, and tries to find ways to prevent the other party from using them.
Soon, he had an idea and knew how to catch Gu Teng off guard.
Chen Yun looked down disdainfully at the front, and spoke to Gu Teng with a mocking tone, "I thought this treasureous blade was so powerful. I even secretly used a sacred weapon to protect myself earlier. It turns out that it's nothing more than that."
Gu Teng was taken aback, "Did you use a talisman earlier to withstand the power of the treasured blade?"
Chen Yun snapped his fingers, and the Taiji purple belt immortal robe he was wearing turned into a ray of light floating in his palm, "That's right, I relied on this talisman robe to withstand the power of the treasured blade. Unfortunately, this treasured blade is quite ordinary; it truly disappoints me."
Gu Teng coldly laughed and said, "Daring to speak so arrogantly that your talisman robe is amazing, saying that my treasured blade is not powerful. If you have the courage, try it again without wearing the talisman robe."
Chen Yun laughed out loud and said, "I have the talisman robe, why should I not wear it?"
Gu Teng was rendered speechless.
Chen Yun looked at the other party and seemed very arrogant, "Since you say that I only fear your treasured blade because of my talisman robe, then, I will take it off. Let's see if you can still summon the blade."
Gu Teng was taken aback and laughed, "Chen Piao, are you serious?"
Chen Yun flipped his hand, and the talisman robe instantly vanished from his palm. "For real, go ahead and try."
Gu Teng laughed loudly, "I'm inviting death, just as you wish!"
Chen Yun had a calm face on the outside, but he couldn't help but coldly laugh in his heart. If Gu Teng dare to summon the treasured blade again, he will definitely take the other party's life!
