Gao Wu: You have science, and I have magic!

Chapter 218: The Forty-Li-Long Sword
Lian Hongying, who has come back from the dead, has undergone earth-shaking changes in his physique, bloodline, martial arts energy, and even his mind and will.

The true energy and blood completely merged, flowing through her eight extraordinary meridians like a giant dragon awakening.

The spiritual will encompasses the heaven and earth, wraps around nature, and blooms from the inside out, emitting a round of fiery red spiritual light, forming a prototype halo with a radius of one foot behind the head.

At the same time, the most divine and holy power surged out, like the sun and the moon, forever shining on the mountains and rivers.

In essence, the Martial Saint is still a "human".

The God of War has been sublimated into a higher-level life form. The biggest difference is that the God of War can pass on his own power to his descendants through genetic editing.

This is the origin of the descendants of gods!

The Rakshasa tribe, the Qiongqi tribe, and even many strange and intelligent tribes in the secret realm of Dongtian were all born into this world. They inherited the powerful bloodline of their ancestors, so they were born with extraordinary qualifications and established powerful tribes, families and even fiefdoms.

Every martial god is the "source" of this bloodline group, and is revered as the "ancestor" by the descendants of gods.

Lian Hongying felt the changes in himself after being reborn. A surging force permeated his body, as if a slight wave of his hand was enough to move mountains, fill the sea, and pluck the stars and the moon.

The power of God is so great, vast and endless.

But then she realized that she had not yet completely completed this transformation, because God's power did not come from herself, but was more like a kind of authority.

The power of authority comes from the Tao.

In ancient times, all the gods in the sky carried the truth with their bodies, thus gathering the power of all living beings.

Observe the way of heaven and follow the way of heaven.

Human nature is human, and human heart is scheming.

The way of establishing heaven is used to determine people.

Lian Hongying had entered the realm of Martial Saint in the past. The reason he chose the Purifying Red Lotus as his mental image was that he saw how difficult it was for the people to survive when he traveled to various countries.

Although she was born into a royal family, she cared about the world and wanted to do something for the people of Rakshasa under her rule.

The owner of Kunlun Cave Heaven is the Queen Mother of the West. Lian Hongying cannot change the rules set by the Queen Mother of the West, but she can at least wield her sword to eliminate the injustice she sees with her own eyes.

"Punishing evil and promoting good, this is my way."

Lian Hongying whispered, and then a loud bang was heard in her spiritual world.

A pillar of dazzling light rose up from the clouds and went straight into the sky, turning into a dreamy galaxy of colorful light and flowing into the void.

Practice God to return to the virtual!

Be true to the Tao!

At this moment, the martial arts energy and mental power in Lian Hongying's body completely surrounded her mind and will, merging into a power that transcends all things - divine power!
This power comes from the authority of the Tao and from the devotion of people's hearts.

"Revenge! Revenge!"

"Tooth for tooth! Blood for blood!"

The angry shouts of countless Rakshasa people, along with the River of Avenue, were poured into Lian Hongying's spiritual world. It was both a burden and a gift.

The boiling hearts of the people will become the source of strength for Lian Hongying from now on, as long as there is injustice in the world, as long as kindness and justice are still being trampled upon.

Then, her way will not perish.

As long as she does not deviate from her own "Tao", her power will not decline.

"The God of Martial Arts, the Dao and God, exist together."

Lian Hongying's phoenix eyes were of a holy golden color. Her gaze only fell on Yuan Jinyou, and the latter felt as if a disaster was about to happen.

"My life is over!"

Lian Hongying raised her hand and slashed at Yuan Jinyou from a distance: "You are disobedient, colluding with foreign enemies, and killing innocent people. You should be executed for your crimes."

Zheng~
I saw the famous sword Red Butterfly dancing gracefully, emitting a dreamlike and gorgeous sword light.

Then, this sword, which was infused with divine power, instantly cut through Yuan Jinyou's Zhu Yan Zhantian's mental image, and even severed his bridge between heaven and earth, directly knocking his realm down from the realm of Martial Saint to that of a Half-Step Master.

Finally, there was a "puff" sound, and Yuan Jinyou's head fell to the ground. His body was burned into ashes by the scorching fire, and then drifted between heaven and earth with a breeze.

But in the blink of an eye, even a powerful warrior like the Martial Saint would be reduced to ashes.

"Qi and blood are like a dragon, ascend to heaven and become a god!"

When Duan Qianfeng saw Lian Hongying draw his sword, his scalp went numb, his whole body went cold, and his mood sank to the bottom.

The thing he was most worried about finally happened.

Lian Hongying made a breakthrough on the battlefield, came back to life from the dead, was broken and then stood up again, and actually completed the transformation in the desperate situation and successfully ascended to heaven and became a god.

"It's his mother's fault!"

Qiongwu turned around and left without thinking, because he knew very well how powerful the God of War was.

Even though Lian Hongying had just entered the divine realm, his strength was at the bottom among the immortal gods, and his Taoism was not profound enough, but the gap between the Martial God and the Martial Saint was greater than the gap between the Martial Saint and an ordinary person!

In the realm of immortals and gods, not only are they not the same species, they are not even in the same dimension!
If we have to make an analogy, it is probably that the God of War has become a game player, and the Saint of War, no matter how powerful he is, is just an NPC in the game.

Even if the NPC's numbers are extremely high, it is destined not to hurt the real game players at all.

"If you don't leave, you'll die!"

Qiongwu spread his wings and flew into the air, directly entering a super-speed state and fleeing the scene at a speed over twenty times the speed of sound.

At this moment, he could fly seven kilometers in one second, and within a few breaths, he escaped forty miles away.

Unfortunately, for a martial god, a distance of forty miles is no different from being right at hand.

Lian Hongying was seen raising his sword towards the sky, and then a blood-red sword energy rushed straight into the sky. The blazing red lotus fire was compressed and condensed to the extreme, emitting a terrifying pressure.

It seemed as if it would explode in the next second and annihilate everything.

This knife represents the resentment and hatred of tens of thousands of innocent people who died tragically in this war. Because of the ambitions of a group of people, they were inexplicably dragged into it and suffered an unexpected disaster.

"You are cruel and inhumane, and you aid the tyrant in his tyranny. I sentence you to death."

Zheng~
There was only a sound of a sword ringing that resounded through the night sky, and the red and burning sword light seemed to split the sky and the earth, and it slashed down on Qiong Wu with unstoppable force.

"No!"

Being chopped down by the forty-li-long sword, Qiongwu was torn into pieces in mid-air, and blood rained down all over the sky. He was deader than dead.

Two slashes of swords!

The two saints died!

The power of the God of War is truly earth-shaking.

Lian Hongying didn't even use any moves. With just two simple slashes, he made Yuan Jinyou and Qiongwu, two powerful martial saints, die on the spot.

"now you."

Lian Hongying spoke in an unhurried tone, walked at an unhurried pace, and looked at Duan Qianfeng calmly and steadily. In her eyes, there was a god's indifference and loneliness: "Any last words?"

"Hahaha!"

Duan Qianfeng knew that his death was approaching, so he did not beg for mercy. Instead, he laughed and mocked Lian Hongying, saying: "What's the point of you killing me? After I die, there will still be countless Rakshasa heroes who choose to rise up and resist the brutal rule of the royal family. As long as injustice continues, such resistance will not stop!"

"Unfair? Ridiculous."

Lian Hongying shook her head with regret and showed a disappointed expression to Duan Qianfeng: "You are not rebelling against injustice, you just want to become another royal family. If people like you are really allowed to ascend to high positions, the exploitation and oppression of the people will probably be even more cruel than the royal family."

"Humph, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. You are the winner now, so you can say whatever you want!"

Duan Qianfeng still refused to accept.

He was unwilling to accept this. Why could the royal family monopolize the path to becoming a god?

He was unwilling to accept this. Why could the royal family enjoy all the glory and wealth?

He was unwilling to accept the fact that a genius like himself could not be valued and could not hold power.

From the beginning to the end, he and Yuan Jinyou had never considered standing up for the lower-class people of the Rakshasa tribe. All they thought about was their own interests.

Such ideals and ambitions are far from the word "great".

"For your own selfish reasons, you started a war and put the 300,000 soldiers and civilians of Huajian City in danger. You deserve to be killed." Zheng~
Lian Hongying's figure flashed at an incredibly fast speed. When she reappeared, Duan Qianfeng's head had already fallen to the ground.

When the three martial saints died, the whole area within a hundred miles was filled with grief and it began to rain blood.

The vitality exuded by the Martial Saint directly triggered the tide of vital energy and powerful energy fluctuations. Coupled with the spirit and will that remained after the Martial Saint's death, it might even form three small secret realms on the spot.

"A martial saint can actually die in battle?"

It was the first time for Huang Liwen to see such a grand scene.

For the current Dongji Kingdom, the Martial Saint is already the most powerful person in the world, the top core combat force, and an undefeated legend.

But under the knife of the powerful Martial God, the Martial Saint who was invincible in his eyes died like a wild dog on the roadside and was killed without any resistance.

Ye Qingzhou's eyes were burning with excitement. He had witnessed this battle with his own eyes and had benefited a lot from it. "Sure enough, the difficulty of carrying the Dao with one's body and carrying the Dao with a sword is completely different."

"It seems that the secret technique of Yuelu Academy, which uses literature to convey the Dao, should have imitated some of the characteristics of the Martial God realm. However, the strength of the carrier determines the strength of the 'Dao force'."

Through the Heavenly Eye, Ye Qingzhou has seen Lian Hongying's fighting style in its entirety, and also understood that the power of the 'Tao' is heavier than Mount Tai. If the carrier is too weak, it will not be able to exert even a fraction of its power.

Only magical weapons can carry such vast and supreme power.

But divine weapons are external objects after all. Only by using themselves to carry the great Dao can they fully demonstrate the divine power that is truly capable of changing the world.

Just when Ye Qingzhou was still obsessed with spying on the power of the God of War, Lian Hongying's heroic figure disappeared again.

"Does it look good?"

A pretty and graceful figure suddenly appeared beside Ye Qingzhou.

She was dressed in red, barefoot, with waist-length hair, and wore a set of bright, fiery close-fitting armor. The curved armor plates were gorgeous and exquisite, but only covered important parts, leaving large areas of snow-white skin exposed. She was so beautiful that it made people dizzy.

"Before, you were the one spying on me in secret, right?"

Lian Hongying raised her eyebrows slightly, and her pair of phoenix eyes were shining with heroic spirit. She was smiling and talking, and it seemed that she was not angry at being peeped at by Ye Qingzhou.

On the contrary, she looked at Ye Qingzhou with a hint of teasing and seduction in her eyes: "Am I beautiful?"

“It’s extremely beautiful.”

Ye Qingzhou and Lian Hongying locked eyes. When his gaze fell on her curvy body, his gaze was even more blazing: "A martial god-level body, truly perfect flesh and blood, it's really eye-opening."

Under the Heavenly Eye, Ye Qingzhou had a clear view of the secrets of the God of War's domineering body and benefited a lot from it, so he could express his sincere admiration.

"This perfect body is also due to your contribution."

Lian Hongying smiled. Her original idea was to fake her death and reincarnate, but there were too many variables and it might not be a sure thing.

Therefore, Ye Qingzhou's "bet" was extremely important to her.

Moreover, in Lian Hongying's opinion, the young man in front of him could obtain a large amount of mental power and possessed magical weapons, so he must be of great origin.

Nowadays, there are constant open and covert struggles within the Rakshasa Female Kingdom. Even if Lian Hongying is promoted to a Martial God, he still needs a strong external aid.

So, she began to test Ye Qingzhou's background: "What is your name, distinguished guest?"

"My name is Ye Qingzhou. I carry the legacy of Emperor Yan. I have now come to Kunlun Divine Territory to travel around, gain knowledge, and hone my knowledge."

Lying in front of the God of War is not a wise move.

So Ye Qingzhou chose to tell the truth, but he did not reveal all his cards. He only talked about the inheritance of Emperor Yan, but did not say that he came to Kunlun Cave Heaven to find the Xuanyuan Sword.

"So that's how it is. Hongying has met the descendant of Emperor Yan."

As soon as she heard the name "Emperor Yan", Lian Hongying's attitude towards Ye Qingzhou immediately became different from before. She became more cautious and less disrespectful.

You must know that emperor is a title of god, and every strong man who can be called emperor is the pinnacle existence among the gods of war.

Among them, the five emperors of the human race are the most outstanding, namely the Green, Yellow, Flame, White and Black emperors. Each of them is the most brilliant and talented person in ancient times.

The Five Emperors not only had extremely high levels of cultivation, they also made great contributions to the heavens, the earth, and all living things, which is why they are respected and honored by all races.

Now that Ye Qingzhou had revealed his identity as the descendant of Emperor Yan, he immediately gained the attention of Lian Hongying, and was even flattered.

That night, Ye Qingzhou and Huang Liwen were invited to stay in the City Lord's Mansion together, and they were treated as VIPs.

Even the maids who came to serve them were all beautiful and delicate Rakshasa girls, each of them had affectionate eyes and were charming and ready to be picked by the king.

This is the custom of the Rakshasa Women's Kingdom. The beautiful Rakshasa girls regard their beauty as a weapon. They are extremely eager for the blood of the strong and are even willing to offer themselves for it.

Seeing that Huang Liwen was a little distracted, Ye Qingzhou quickly warned him, "Think about the two tigresses at home. If you leave your vital energy here, they will probably eat you alive when you return."

"..."

Huang Liwen was still a little out of control at first, but when he heard these words, he was immediately chilled to the bone.

Yao Yexin and Yan Xiyue, they have always been coveting his body!

Sometimes, being too popular is not a good thing. Huang Liwen is under a lot of pressure now.

But soon, he heartlessly put his worries aside and began to tease Ye Qingzhou: "Old Ye, do you think City Lord Lian is interested in you? Her looks and temperament, tsk tsk, why don't you just give in?"

Ye Qingzhou shook his head and said to Huang Liwen through his mind: "When you show courtesy to others, you must have something to ask for. The Luosha Women's Kingdom has been in a state of thousands of years, and the various forces within it have been fighting overtly and covertly, and the situation is complicated. I don't want to be involved in it, otherwise I will die without knowing how I died."

"Is it that exaggerated?"

Huang Liwen was shocked. He had never thought about it in this way. "Maybe you are thinking too much?"

"Haven't you figured out the battle in Huajian City?"

Ye Qingzhou had to think carefully: "If I hadn't intervened, Lian Hongying would have died. Even if she had faked her death early on, there are too many variables. The so-called foolproof will often become a chance of failure in the end. If an accident really happens, what awaits her is death without a burial place."

Ye Qingzhou saw everything clearly in the previous battle.

Before Lian Hongying started the war, he did not hesitate to use the Red Lotus Karma Fire to clear the inner city and killed many nobles. This move was obviously to clear the area in advance. The people who needed to be guarded against must be other noble factions in the Rakshasa Women's Kingdom.

Such internal strife has occurred countless times in human history, so Ye Qingzhou did not find it strange at all.

There are no factions within the party, so there are all kinds of weird things.

"So, we are not in danger?"

Huang Liwen began to panic. He thought that he was lucky to be able to live in the City Lord's Mansion, but now looking back, it was clearly a lucky truck!
If they were really involved in the internal strife of the Rakshasa Female Kingdom, there might be a Martial Saint or even a Martial God who would end up in the conflict. With his and Ye Qingzhou's small bodies, how could they withstand such a fight?

"Old Ye, how about we just run away?"

At this moment, Huang Liwen no longer cared about enjoying wealth and glory. He just wanted to get away from this powder keg under his butt.

"Don't panic. Now that we are here, we should make the best of it. Don't forget, we are here to look for treasure. We haven't got the seal yet. Why are you in such a hurry?"

Seeing that Ye Qingzhou was so concerned about money and not his life, Huang Liwen didn't know what to say.

He still shudders when he recalls the tragic scene of last night.

But Ye Qingzhou is different. Even in this situation, he is still thinking about the treasure in the City Lord's Mansion.

By the early morning of the second day, the situation in Huajian City had returned to calm.

After a fierce battle last night, Lian Hongying beheaded three rebel leaders in public and quickly suppressed the rebellion in the city. He even sent troops to eliminate the remnants of the rebels outside the city.

After all, without the three Martial Saints in command, the rebels were leaderless and resistance became meaningless.

What's more, most of the main force of the rebels had already been killed by the Red Lotus Karma Fire in the battle last night, and the rest knelt down and begged for surrender.

Without top experts, it would be difficult for the rebels to make any waves.

Ironware Market, Shenfeng Pavilion.

Ye Qingzhou and Huang Liwen were standing in the rubble at this time. The shop had obviously been razed to the ground by the violent explosion.

The good news is that the shop owner is now in a stable mood.

Bad news, the owner of the shop died in the fighting last night.

"Huh? Good stuff."

Ye Qingzhou picked up a dark red arm from the ruins and was quite surprised: "The Black Gold Kirin Arm of Forging Martial Arts?"
