From martial arts sects to immortality sects

Chapter 23 Top Master, Retreats Unscathed
Li Qingqiu never expected that this revenge trip would yield such a great treasure. On his escape, he had already set out a grand plan for the Qingxiao Sect for the next century.

That means focusing on cultivating Yuanli!
We need to find a way to awaken his physical potential and let him learn whatever he wants. The heart of a grandmaster will surely enable him to create many martial arts and spells for the Qingxiao Sect.

"Heaven is truly merciful; good deeds are rewarded. If I hadn't been soft-hearted just now, I would have missed this kid. Moreover, if he were to grow up in the Seven Mountains Alliance, he would undoubtedly become an unpredictable and huge problem."

Li Qingqiu thought to himself, and his mood became pleasant.

Yuan Qi, who was being held in one arm, thought to himself, "This older brother is amazing. He's carrying his younger brother in his arms, holding him with one arm and carrying a sword with the other. He's so cool."

He wants to become that kind of person in the future!
The Seven Mountains Alliance is located on the top of a mountain, surrounded by cliffs on all sides. No matter how skilled one is in lightness skills, one cannot fly to the opposite mountain. One can only descend from the front gate from which one came.

Li Qingqiu, with Yuan Qi and Yuan Li, landed on a rooftop. He stopped and did not go any further.

Yuan Qi turned his head and looked over. His dirty little face clearly showed a change in expression, and panic was uncontrollably evident in his eyes.

Following his gaze, a hundred feet away, down the steps, one could see Seven Mountains Alliance disciples gathered in various training grounds, their numbers still increasing. The scene of people moving about and firelight flickering was oppressive.

Yuan Qi felt a sense of despair. How could so many people possibly escape?

Are he and his brother destined to never escape the Seven Mountains Alliance, this den of demons?
Li Qingqiu also felt the pressure. He hadn't expected the Seven Mountains Alliance to act so quickly, gathering so many disciples in front of the mountain gate.

It wasn't that he lacked confidence in his own strength, but rather that he feared that forcing his way in would injure Yuan Qi and Yuan Li.

He stood still, began to circulate his energy, absorbing the spirit stone hidden in his bosom, transforming its spiritual energy into vital energy, so that he could break through the encirclement in the best possible condition.

Yuan Qi turned to look at Li Qingqiu. He couldn't figure out what Li Qingqiu was thinking. He thought Li Qingqiu was hesitating, so he said softly, "Big brother, put us down and escape on your own. No matter what, you were able to kill the leader of the Seven Mountains Alliance. We will be grateful to you, no matter who the leader is."

Li Qingqiu glanced at him and said, "It seems you are burdened with a deep-seated blood feud. I will listen to your story after we leave the mountain."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Qi was both moved and puzzled.

With so many people, how can they escape down the mountain?

He dared not disturb Li Qingqiu any longer and waited patiently.

Li Qingqiu didn't have to wait long. He composed himself, picked up Yuan Qi, and continued charging forward.

He stepped onto the roof without making a sound, which surprised Yuan Qi. The whistling wind echoed in his ears, and as the crowd in the distance grew closer, his heart was in his throat.

Big brother, are you going to force your way in?
Li Qingqiu reached the end of the last rooftop, leaped down, landed on the ground, and then walked towards the steps.

His appearance attracted the attention of many disciples of the Seven Mountains Alliance. However, seeing that he was wearing the robes of the Seven Mountains Alliance, the disciples were not on guard. They were just curious as to why he was carrying two children.

Among the crowd, two alliance leaders were exchanging words: the second alliance leader, Guang Lantian, and the fourth alliance leader, Xu Ziheng.

Xu Ziheng was thin and had messy hair. He yawned and asked, "What's causing such a commotion?"

Guang Lantian looked to be about sixty years old, slightly overweight, with a full beard. When Xu Ziheng asked him, he frowned and said, "I don't know either, but I guess it's a big deal, maybe related to the Qing Cult."

"It's the Green Cult again. These lunatics are truly lawless. Ever since they set their sights on our sect's ultimate technique, they've been harassing us endlessly."

Xu Ziheng cursed, he got furious whenever the topic of the Green Sect came up.

Guang Lantian shook his head and said, "The Qing Cult has climbed up to high-ranking officials in the imperial court and is now very arrogant. We must be careful."

Just as Xu Ziheng was about to speak, he suddenly heard the other disciples talking. He turned his head and saw a disciple carrying two children coming down the top step.

Upon seeing this, his anger flared instantly, and he roared, "Insolence! Who gave you permission to touch them?"

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Ziheng leaped up, stepping over the shoulders of his disciples, and with a final burst of strength, flew towards Li Qingqiu.

His voice was like thunder, and his aura was like a tiger, which frightened Yuan Qi so much that he trembled all over.

Xu Ziheng was surrounded by internal energy, and his speed suddenly increased during the fall. He held up a palm, and a powerful force rushed towards Li Qingqiu and the other two.

Li Qingqiu drew his sword with his right hand and slashed upwards, unleashing a burst of sword energy that flashed across the faces of many Seven Mountains Alliance disciples.

Xu Ziheng, who was in mid-air, had no time to dodge. His palm force was directly dispersed by Li Qingqiu's sword energy, which then struck him head-on.

"puff--"

Xu Ziheng seemed to be hit by a huge force, his body leaned backward, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell away at an even faster speed.

The Seven Mountains Alliance disciples below were caught off guard, but they still instinctively raised their hands to catch it, only to be crushed in large numbers.

When Guang Lantian saw this scene, his eyes widened. The other disciples of the Seven Mountains Alliance were also frightened. Xu Ziheng was the leader of the alliance and ranked fourth on the Guzhou Martial Arts Heavenly Ranking. No one could defeat him unless they encountered a peerless master on the Heavenly Ranking.

What did they see as a result?
Even the mighty Xu Ziheng was severely injured by a single sword strike!
Looking at Li Qingqiu, who remained in a sword-wielding stance, everyone's eyes revealed fear.

The night was dark and the moon was half-hidden. Li Qingqiu, who was standing on the top of the steps, held a child in one arm and a sword in the other. His posture was upright and his robes fluttered violently in the wind. The aura he displayed at this moment shocked the hundreds of disciples of the Seven Mountains Alliance below.

The ultimate master!

This is Guang Lantian's current thought.

He reacted swiftly and immediately ordered, "Form ranks! Don't let him escape!"

Having said that, he took out a wooden whistle, blew it hard, and the whistle's piercing sound echoed through the night sky. Li Qingqiu moved, rushing quickly towards the steps. In his hand, he wasn't holding the Tianhong Sword, but Chen Ye's sword.

Although the Seven Mountains Alliance disciples were frightened, their numbers and strength emboldened them. Upon receiving the alliance leader's order, they drew their swords and charged at Li Qingqiu. The swaying crowd surged up the steps like a torrent.

Li Qingqiu charged into the crowd, wielding his sword swiftly. The sword flashed, and blood splattered. He moved with agility, his figure like a ghost, dodging swords and blades. His sword always managed to precisely strike the enemy's throat.

Yuan Qi was so frightened that he closed his eyes tightly and leaned on Li Qingqiu's shoulder. Yuan Li, who was hanging in Li Qingqiu's arms, was also startled. He frowned and was too weak to open his eyes.

Li Qingqiu killed one person with each step. No matter how many enemies were in front of him, he did not retreat. From the sky, the torrent of Seven Mountains Alliance disciples was actually forced back by him alone.

Guang Lantian showed no fear, his footsteps moving with a mysterious technique, like a dragon weaving through the crowd, quickly reaching Li Qingqiu's back.

Yuan Qi, who was perched on Li Qingqiu's shoulder, felt a gust of wind and subconsciously opened his eyes. He saw Guang Lantian, like a vicious dragon, attacking from a deep pool, his right palm waving in front of him, bringing a bloody storm.

Yuan Qi suddenly recalled the scene of his father having his heart ripped out by Guang Lantian. His pupils trembled, and boundless fear enveloped his heart.

Just then, as if Li Qingqiu had eyes in the back of his head, he turned around and slashed with his sword.

This sword strike was extremely fierce, with lightning even flashing on the blade, dispelling the darkness in Yuan Qi's eyes.

Guang Lantian was startled by Li Qingqiu's sudden turn. He quickly leaned back to dodge the sword, but before he could make a further move, Li Qingqiu kicked him in the chest, sending him flying.

This kick sent Guang Lantian tumbling several times on the ground, knocking down many people.

When Li Qingqiu pulled her legs back, she felt a little numbness in them.

His physical abilities had improved, but facing Guang Lantian rushing at full speed with his internal energy, this kick was very difficult.

Li Qingqiu turned around and continued his attack.

What he needs to do now is fight his way out, not massacre.

As soon as he turned around, a large number of Seven Mountains Alliance disciples rushed down from above.

at the same time.

In the distance, on the mountaintop, a woman in black stood on the edge of a cliff. She saw the thick fog between the two mountains dissipate, and sparks of light appeared in the Seven Mountains Alliance, quickly spreading.

She was sleeping when she heard the invasion horn of the Seven Mountains Alliance.

"He actually caused such a commotion..."

The woman in black was secretly alarmed when she thought of Li Qingqiu's face.

After hesitating for a moment, she turned and went down the mountain, not wanting to be involved in the trouble.

……

Li Qingqiu threw away the broken longsword in his hand, drew the Tianhong Sword from his waist and continued fighting.

Dozens of people were lying on the ground behind him, and he was surrounded by hundreds of people on all sides.

Although he appeared very strong, he did not frighten the disciples of the Seven Mountains Alliance.

Li Qingqiu stared ahead, his eyes narrowing. His right hand actually released the sword sheath, but even so, the Tianhong Sword still hovered in front of him.

The Rainbow Sword trembled as it turned, its tip pointing straight ahead, a sight that left the Seven Mountains Alliance disciples in the front row staring wide-eyed.

boom--

With a sonic boom that tore through the air, the Rainbow Sword charged forward, its energy forming sword qi that ravaged everything in its path, with Li Qingqiu close behind.

The sound of the sword blade cutting through flesh and scraping against bone rang out continuously as Li Qingqiu used his Taijutsu Sword Control Technique to carve out a bloody path.

Guang Lantian, clutching his chest, had just stood up when he witnessed this horrifying scene, causing him to cough violently, blood gushing from his mouth. His eyes widened, filled with terror.

Under his watchful eye, Li Qingqiu successfully broke through the encirclement and headed straight into the night.

The disciples of the Seven Mountains Alliance dared not blindly pursue him. Given the speed Li Qingqiu displayed, they simply could not catch up. They all turned to look at Guang Lantian, their faces filled with lingering fear.

Guang Lantian did not give the order, because he dared not pursue them.

"Oh no! The Grand Alliance Leader has been murdered by thieves!"

A voice came from behind, and a disciple stumbled up the steps and shouted. These words were undoubtedly a great shock to the hundreds of Seven Mountains Alliance disciples who had just experienced a fierce battle.

Guang Lantian felt as if the sky had fallen. He turned his head and looked at Xu Ziheng, who was already dead and lying in a pool of blood.

the other side.

Li Qingqiu carried the two children and quickly descended the mountain. He was somewhat anxious, as he had already exhausted more than half of his energy and could not afford to get caught up in a fierce battle.

A prompt suddenly appeared before his eyes:
[Given that you were the first to behead an enemy sect and escape unscathed, thus upholding the prestige of the Qingxiao Sect, you are hereby granted an opportunity for a legacy reward.]

　Thank you to Star Spirit Blood for the 5000 Qidian Coins!
