I am Guhuoniao, not an umbrella demon, please do not disturb me.

The old man was getting impatient. "You're just a junior. How dare you block my way? You're not qualified."

With a casual flick of his wrist, a magical artifact the size of a large bell flew towards Dong Qing, growing larger and larger in mid-air until it descended upon him, seemingly intending to seal him away.

Dong Qing's expression changed, but he remained fearless. He unleashed a powerful strike with his Heavenly Sword, but the old Taoist snorted and unleashed his spiritual power once more, instantly shattering Dong Qing's sword light. The pendulum, unstoppable, ignored Dong Qing's attack and was about to envelop him.

"So-called Heavenly Sword is nothing more than this; you are not qualified!"

A smile appeared on the old Taoist's face, and the next moment, a clear voice rang out.

“My daughter isn’t qualified, so what about me?”

A burst of platinum-gold light erupted, easily trapping the pendulum. The old Taoist's expression changed drastically, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. The large bell inexplicably began to turn black rapidly and then shattered inch by inch.

The quality of the magic bell was not low; after all, it was one of the natal magic weapons of a Nascent Soul cultivator, belonging to the top tier. Yet, it was broken open so easily.

Several powerful figures around the Third Prince were about to make a move when the leader raised his hand to stop them, deciding to observe the situation.

The platinum-gold light disappeared, and a wooden umbrella appeared out of thin air. Then, Bai Qingyu's figure, holding the umbrella, appeared in everyone's sight from the void. As soon as she appeared, the large bell that had been covering Dong Qing shattered completely, and was completely decomposed by the platinum-gold light around Bai Qingyu's body.

The power of destiny belonging to Bai Xiaoya has not yet been returned to her by Bai Qingyu and remains within her body. Due to Bai Xiaoya's presence, Bai Qingyu is no longer affected when using this power of destiny, and there are no side effects whatsoever.

With his recent research into the Demon Book, Bai Qingyu has gained a completely new understanding of the mysterious concepts of fortune and the recognition of heaven and earth, making him adept at using the power of fortune.

Of course, the consumption was indeed great, but what could she do when she was just a weak demon at the Void Refinement stage?

Upon seeing Bai Qingyu's appearance, the Third Prince and his companions all turned grim.

They wouldn't care even if the head of Tianyang Palace came in person, and they could even try to challenge two or three peak masters. But the person they least wanted to meet was Bai Qingyu.

Bai Qingyu's strength is one point, and so is his luck.

They didn't want to be enemies with Bai Qingyu, fearing that their nation's fate would be in danger.

Before Bai Qingyu became famous, people didn't really care much about luck, unless someone had extraordinary good fortune.

Compared to them, Holly, once she came to her senses, was at the complete opposite extreme.

"aunt!"

Dongqing was so excited that she wanted to jump onto Bai Qingyu and give her a kiss.

In this unfamiliar place, under such dangerous and tense circumstances, she was about to be captured by the enemy when her aunt appeared.

Holly was overwhelmed with emotion; she was simply too happy.

Is there anything more reassuring than this?

"Well done. You are now a qualified and responsible sword immortal, but your strength still needs to be improved."

Bai Qingyu seemed oblivious to the people on the Third Prince's side, smiling as she looked at Dong Qing and patted her head with a smile.

"Congratulations to our young lady for fulfilling her greatest wish."

When Bai Qingyu said this, Dong Qing was stunned for a moment, and then realized what he meant.

Yes, the way she looked just now was exactly the image of the sword immortal she had dreamed of since she was a child. The only difference was that the sword immortal she imagined could beat the enemy so badly that they would cry for their parents and run away in fear, while she herself was almost taken down by the enemy just now.

"Hehehe, no, Auntie."

"Don't doubt yourself, you already are. I think that becoming a sword immortal is not just about strength, but more importantly, about having an unwavering heart. Facing so many bad people who are stronger than you, you don't back down and you stick to your principles. That's very good."

Of course, your aunt still hopes you won't be so brave. After all, you only have one life, and no one can guarantee that the enemy won't go crazy and kill you without even looking at your background.

Bai Qingyu didn't say the last sentence, afraid that it would discourage the little girl.

"Yes, I know, Auntie. But why are you here, Auntie?"

"I came to attend the Grand Preceptor's wedding. I sensed the commotion and came to check, but I didn't expect to run into you. So, you're the only one here?"

To be honest, Bai Qingyu was very angry.

Is there really no one else to send to the vast Tianyang Palace?

What happened to the Seven Sons of Tianyang who were all that bragging?

So many powerful figures didn't make a move, and only Dong Qing was sent. Do they really think Dong Qing is invincible just because he has the Heavenly Sword? The other side has at least two Mahayana cultivators. How is Dong Qing supposed to fight them?

As soon as Bai Qingyu finished speaking, he sensed an aura flying rapidly toward him.

The two people who came were Bai Qingyu's "old friends": Yun Ru, the peak master of Wentian Peak, and Hong Fei, the peak master of Lingxu Peak.

"I'm sorry I'm late, Divine Phoenix Lady. Is your daughter alright?" Hongfei landed not far from Bai Qingyu and asked with a smile.

"If I had been a step later, she would have really been injured. You guys were too slow."

"Sorry, sorry, something happened on the way and we were a little delayed. It's good that nothing went wrong. Leave the rest to us."

Hongfei lightly tapped his folding fan, his expression calm and composed, making it hard to doubt whether he was deliberately avoiding showing up.

While training Holly, he also forced Bai Qingyu out of the picture. As long as Bai Qingyu is on his side, everything will be fine.

Hongfei, being cunning and shrewd, was well aware of this group's scheme. They simply wanted to test the bottom line of Tianyang Palace, believing that Tianyang Palace had been on a downward spiral for hundreds of years.

"This is originally a matter for your Tianyang Palace."

Bai Qingyu released Dong Qing and replied with a light sentence.

She was quite interested in Yunru's book, though. She wanted to know the difference between the demon book in Yunru's hand and the demon book in her own hand, why there were two demon books, and since hers could be used for investiture, it must not be a fake.

"Auntie, actually I was on a mission in the capital, so I came here first. Don't worry about me."

With the arrival of powerful figures from Tianyang Palace, the other sects that joined forces naturally had their own countermeasures, with two Mahayana cultivators and three Nascent Soul cultivators appearing.

Bai Qingyu hadn't originally intended to intervene, but now she's changed her mind.

Since we've already made our move, we might as well teach these guys a lesson and show them that not just anyone's brat can be messed with.

The two Mahayana cultivators glanced at Bai Qingyu a few more times, but neither of them had any intention of exchanging blows with him.

What good is it if Hongfei and Yunru are strong? In the end, they still couldn't kill a Mahayana cultivator.

Bai Qingyu has a precedent of killing a Mahayana cultivator, so who knows if she still has that strength now.

"Master Hongfeng, please." A Mahayana practitioner cupped his hands in greeting.

Hongfei smiled calmly, "It seems Brother Li really wants to spar with me today. Please."

After saying this, the two Mahayana cultivators disappeared simultaneously, and instead, terrifying spiritual energy fluctuations came from beyond the sky.

The other person did the same, cupping his hands in greeting, "Peak Master Yun, please."

"please."

The four Mahayana cultivators left, leaving Bai Qingyu and a few Nascent Soul cultivators.

"Dongqing, I'm leaving those black-armored soldiers down there to you. Your aunt will teach these disrespectful old folks a lesson."

With a clear shout, Bai Qingyu unleashed a phantom image of a soaring, white-gold bird, its wings outstretched, in the form of a bird.

Volume 1: Chapter 183 Fierce Battle

The three combined were not much weaker than an ordinary Mahayana cultivator. With a wave of Bai Qingyu's platinum-gold light, all three were enveloped and flew together into the sky to fight in the so-called Outer Heaven.

The Outer Heaven is still the heaven, generally referring to a height that is invisible to people. The area beyond the heaven is where people on the ground cannot see even a tiny black dot the size of a sesame seed when they look up. When one's strength reaches the Great Ascension stage of the Integration Realm, battles between the two sides usually take place in the Outer Heaven so as not to affect people below.

The figures were no longer visible, but the spiritual energy emanating from the battle was still visible, like bursts of fireworks exploding.

Dong Qing wasn't worried about Bai Qingyu's safety at all. She raised her Heavenly Sword and swept it across the black-armored soldiers below. The cultivators in the sky who hadn't yet made a move exchanged glances and then took action.

With some at the Void Refinement stage and others at the Divine Transformation stage, the combined strength of all of them would overwhelm Dong Qing.

Just then, Bai Qingyu's illusory figure suddenly appeared in front of them.

With a wave of her hand, the white-gold aura of fortune, combined with the power of faith in Xizhou, swept the seven or eight people into the sky.

"Dongqing, your aunt is giving you a chance to become a sword immortal today."

Bai Qingyu's voice faintly came. Dong Qing blinked and found that there were only a few Nascent Soul cultivators and two Divine Transformation cultivators left in front of him. All the other experts had been taken away by Bai Qingyu.

It would be a lie to say that he wasn't moved. Overwhelmed with emotion, Dong Qing shouted and slashed out with his sword. The azure sword light formed a white lotus flower in mid-air. In everyone's sight, the lotus flower suddenly bloomed, and countless petals flew out, transforming into countless tiny sword lights.

For cultivators, this move was difficult to withstand, but at most they would suffer some pain without endangering their lives. However, it was a different story for the black-armored soldiers below. These tiny sword beams turned into the most deadly damage. Their sturdy armor was like tofu in front of these sword beams. In an instant, there were cries of agony below.

With a backhand slash, Dong Qing deflected the two flying immortal swords. Her movements were incredibly agile, and she swung her sword one after another, making it seem as if there were more than ten of her on the field. Despite the suppression of more than ten cultivators, she was still unable to gain the upper hand.

Her swordplay is not only highly entertaining, but also quite lethal; it's not just for show.

"It's raining!"

With another clear shout, Dongqin released the Heavenly Sword from the encirclement and pressed down with both hands. Her Taoist robe fluttered without wind, and the Heavenly Sword transformed into more than a dozen slender silver streaks that spun rapidly around her body. The path of the streaks formed a not-too-large oval on Dongqin's body.

Just then, several flying swords attacked her from all directions. Before they could even get within five meters of Dongqin's body, they were pulverized by the wandering light.

With the magical artifact broken, the faces of the several Nascent Soul cultivators turned pale almost simultaneously, and blood trickled from the corners of their mouths.

Their sect values ​​cultivating magical artifacts far more than Tianyang Palace, because cultivating one's natal magical artifact can increase one's power in the shortest amount of time. Tianyang Palace does not see this as an advantage; no matter how powerful a magical artifact is, it is still just a magical artifact. True power lies in one's own strength.

Like Dongqing, she doesn't cultivate too many magical artifacts; her only real magical artifact is the Heavenly Sword.

"bloom!"

Dong Qing raised her hand, and more than ten miniature versions of the Heavenly Sword appeared around her body. Her eyes were sharp, and she pointed her sword finger upwards.

"The flowers have fallen!"

Whoosh!

More than a dozen small swords flew out at the same time, knocking down and piercing the bodies of the cultivators whose magic weapons had been broken, rendering them unable to fight.

Dongqing hesitated, otherwise he could have wiped out all the Nascent Soul cultivators on the other side.

Before the Heavenly Sword could be retracted, two longswords resembling venomous snakes thrust forward one after the other; these were the two Nascent Soul cultivators who were waiting for their chance.

Unlike Dongqing, these two were extremely ruthless, targeting vital areas like Dongqing's throat and heart, aiming to kill him instantly.

puff.

One sword pierced her throat, another her heart, yet Dong Qing's expression remained unchanged, even a faint smile playing on her lips. Then, her body suddenly exploded, the fine, dense sword light almost forming a blinding beam of light.

The two Nascent Soul cultivators were too late to defend themselves; their bodies were slashed and bloodied, with no unscathed spot on their front, a bloody mess.

More than ten small swords were combined into one, and Dongqing held the Heavenly Sword in one hand and pointed it out.

She learned this move from Bai Qingyu, mainly because Bai Qingyu's phantom attack style was too cool, elusive and powerful. Unfortunately, she couldn't learn how to use the phantom to fight alone, so she had to settle for using this move to confuse and counter-kill the enemy.
