My equipment is designed for cultivation; I started by slaughtering my way through a small world.

Chapter 167, "I'm Coming to Destroy the City," is now available! Read it now!

When a disturbance broke out in the Royal Square, the entire capital was immediately placed under martial law. The Imperial Guards, riding their magnificent dragon-scaled steeds, drove away the people near the Imperial City to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the chaos and harming the royal family.

The people were terrified and fled to the outer city.

Gu Qing, dressed solely in black robes, was the only one going against the tide of the crowd, steadily approaching the imperial city.

The main road in front of the imperial city is fifty or sixty meters wide.

The Wei Kingdom's royal guards rode three-meter-tall dragon-scaled steeds, their formation perfectly aligned and their discipline impeccable. The dragon-scaled steeds had blood-red eyes like lanterns, clearly indicating that they were biological weapons modified using some kind of immortal cultivation technology.

"eye--"

The dragon-scaled steeds mounted by the cavalrymen emitted strange roars, resembling dragons but not quite. The cavalrymen in front of the main road drove away the civilians and soon encountered Gu Qing traveling in the opposite direction.

Seeing Gu Qing's attire,

All the cavalrymen felt a chill run down their spines.

No one knew who was under the black robe, but they were all intimidated by the man's fierce aura. Even the dragon-scaled horse instinctively retreated when it saw him.

Biological weapons infused with the power of dragon bloodlines; these dragon-scaled horses have transformed into demons, possessing a stronger instinctive perception than ordinary human cultivators.

The moment these dragon-scaled horses saw Gu Qing, they did not perceive him as a human.

Instead, it was an extremely terrifying demon.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

On the main road outside the city, Gu Qing stood alone in front of all the Dragon Rider Guards. The captain, who was at the tenth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, raised his knight's lance first, and the other guards followed closely behind.

"Your Mightiness."

"The entire capital is under martial law. Please leave immediately."

"Otherwise, it would be a provocation against the imperial authority and an enemy of the entire Imperial Guard..."

More than 300 meters away, the captain of the Imperial Guard shouted to Gu Qing.

however.

Gu Qing, still shrouded in black robes, ignored everyone and treated the rows of Imperial Guards in front of him as nothing.

The man in black robes in front of them continued to do as he pleased.

When the man in black robes approached within three hundred meters of the group, a bead of cold sweat trickled down the forehead of the leading Dragon Cavalry captain, but he still gritted his teeth, raised his spear, and shouted:

"Royal Dragon Riders, charge with me!"

"Rumble..."

As soon as the Imperial Guard commander finished speaking, all the cavalrymen, along with their dragon horses, lit up with a blood-red aura, transforming into streaks of blood shadows that surged like raging waves outside the imperial city.

Three hundred meters, two hundred meters, fifty meters...

Just as Gu Qing was about to be submerged in the surging blood shadows, Gu Qing simply raised his hand, and a dazzling green light condensed at his fingertips, pointing towards the Imperial Guards in front of him.

"laugh!!"

The emerald green light at Gu Qing's fingertip split into thousands of sword energy roots, which instantly unleashed an invincible and terrifying sharpness.

When Gu Qing arrived in the capital of Wei, he used the profound mysteries of swordsmanship for the first time. Although it was only the basic mysteries of the Azure Emperor Sword Manual, the roots of these sword energies spread out like a dense, overwhelming force.

All the Imperial Guards of the Dragon Cavalry who were charging towards Gu Qing froze in their tracks.

The charging force composed of elite cultivators and dragon-scaled horses seemed to have encountered an invisible barrier. In the next moment, all the dragon cavalry were pierced by the hair-thin sword energy roots.

Countless emerald green sword energy roots pierced through the brows of the Dragon Cavalry Imperial Guards, emitting bursts of mysterious green light. Amidst the flashing light, sword energy lotuses sprouted from the figures in front of them.

In the blink of an eye.

The area in front of the main gate of the palace was transformed into a sea of ​​flowers.

This sea of ​​flowers, nourished by blood and flesh, instantly plunged the palace and its surroundings into a deathly silence.

bang bang bang...

After a while.

The armor of the Imperial Guards outside the capital was scattered on the ground, and their flesh, blood, and even souls were annihilated by Gu Qing's profound swordsmanship.

The sound of heavy armor hitting the bluestone floor instantly startled everyone awake.

The ordinary people and rogue cultivators who had been driven outside by the Dragon Cavalry all stared blankly at the figure in black robes in front of the city gate.

"In this world, there are actually Foundation Establishment cultivators who dare to offend the Wei family in front of the imperial city?"

"He's doomed. There's a Golden Core level array defense on the city wall. He can't get in at all and can only stand outside the city and get beaten up."

"Not only that, but the Foundation Establishment cultivators on the city wall were able to join forces to attack this reckless black-robed monster."

"yes!"

"Once the Golden Core Realm cultivator from the Wei family returns, this strange man in black robes will surely die..."

"What a waste of such great talent."

"..."

On the palace wall, a commander at the tenth level of Foundation Establishment watched Gu Qing approach and felt slightly relieved by the impenetrable array defenses on the wall.

He immediately directed all the cultivators on the city wall to stand in a row on the top of the wall, each holding a batch of standard magical artifacts, and to aim them in the direction where Gu Qing was.

Together they channeled their spiritual energy, activating the attack array on the city wall to bless everyone.

"boom!!"

A crimson light arrow, tens of meters in diameter, shot out from above the city wall and locked onto Gu Qing.

"That's the Blood Demon Soul-Destroying Array, an attack array set up in the Wei Kingdom's imperial city."

"A hundred years ago, a Golden Core cultivator stormed into the capital of Wei, only to be brutally killed by a barrage of Bloodthirsty Soul-Destroying Arrows."

"That black-robed monster is finished."

Seeing that Gu Qing was about to be swallowed by the blood-red arrow, the rogue cultivators outside the city shook their heads.

Just as blood was about to be drawn, a pale green light shone from Gu Qing's body, but it was barely noticeable compared to the sword light of the Azure Emperor Sword Manual.

The pale green light enveloped Gu Qing's entire body, and his figure flashed.

next moment.

Gu Qing appeared dozens of meters away, where a trace of his sword energy remained.

Above the city wall, the commander of the Imperial Guards watched Gu Qing's sudden disappearance and reappearance. He trembled, pointing at Gu Qing with eyes full of terror, and said:

"Everyone, attack that black-robed monster together! He can teleport!"

"Overwhelm him with a large-scale attack."

"If he were to be touched even once by the Bloodthirsty Soul-Destroying Arrow, he would die!"

As soon as the commander of the Imperial Guards finished speaking, thousands of cultivators above the main gate of the imperial city formed groups of hundreds and instantly condensed dozens of terrifying blood-red light arrows, each tens of meters in diameter, which rained down on Gu Qing's location.

"Rumble..."

however.

Despite being bombarded by the crimson light arrows, Gu Qing strolled leisurely between them.

Previously, he had wiped out all the Imperial Guards with a single move. The sword energy nurtured by their flesh and blood spread like seeds throughout the earth. Wherever there was a trace of sword energy, Gu Qing's figure would appear.

This is the profound mystery that the Bitter Bamboo, after evolving into a ten-thousand-year-old spiritual root, fed back to Gu Qing. Based on this profound mystery, Gu Qing created the Nine Swords Condensing Void Sword Technique.

The crimson light arrows roared continuously, echoing throughout the entire capital. After several breaths of continuous attacks, the area outside the main gate of the imperial city was completely unrecognizable, with deep pits hundreds of meters in diameter everywhere.

On the city wall, the commander of the Imperial Guards' face grew increasingly grim, so dark it seemed like it could drip water.

Now let's look at Gu Qing's side.

He used the [Nine Swords Condensing Void Sword Technique] to bait out the opponent's ultimate move, thus depleting the energy reserves of the Imperial City Formation.

It seemed that the city had been operating at full power for a long time, causing the crimson defensive barrier on the city wall to suddenly shake.

The miniature Burning Mountain Spirit Ape perched on Gu Qing's shoulder pointed towards the top of the city wall:

"Boss, there's a flaw in that spot."
