Chapter 137: Chapter 119 Sword River’s Might (3.2K for monthly ticket) Nightfall. Li Qian donned a black cloak essential for night travel, left Chen Bell Platform, and swiftly flew away from Divine Sword Sect. He had traveled hundreds of miles away from Divine Sword Sect. He had entered a savage wilderness area. The endless forests here stretched north to the Kunwu Plateau and east to the Tianzhi Mountains. Li Qian stood atop a cliff. The moon hid behind the clouds, casting a hazy and foggy veil between heaven and earth. Li Qian closed his eyes, connected with the Vast Sword River in his mind, and released it as his thoughts moved. Hum! He felt like the primordial qi between heaven and earth vibrated as if everything shook in that moment. Centered around him, within a thousand meters, the rolling primordial qi vibrated and then transformed into sword qi, endless sword qi slowly converging and swirling around Li Qian as he flew. Finally, it gathered into a River of Sword Qi. This scene would be incredibly shocking if it wasn’t night with dim and hazy light. Suddenly, Li Qian pointed with his finger, and the surging River of Sword Qi burst forth, violently crashing against the steep cliff opposite him. Along with the thundering roar, explosions erupted, huge chunks of rock shattered and collapsed, and when the dust settled, a giant gap seven to eight zhang wide and four to five zhang deep had formed on the steep cliff. Looking at such power, Li Qian was extremely shocked within. This was no ordinary earth and stone, but rock that had hardened over tens of thousands of years. His Great River Sword Qi had burst forth with such terrifying destructive power. "Is this the power of the Heavenly Phenomenon Level?" Li Qian muttered to himself. This was just his True Image Level Sword Intent and cultivation at the True Pill Realm Late Stage. What if he became a true Celestial and comprehended the real Heavenly Phenomenon Level Sword Intent? The destructive power would be unimaginable, surely at the level of city destruction. He had no doubt, with one sword strike, a mighty Martial Arts Army would be utterly annihilated. That is to say, even a strong Martial Arts Army... would be no match for a true Heavenly Phenomenon Level Celestial. No wonder the old Emperor Wu suppressed Dachang for two hundred years, with no one daring to rebel. "But, it consumes quite a bit of spiritual energy, I guess I could use it only two or three times at most." Li Qian sighed. He had used the Great River Sword Qi just once and already felt a slight swelling sensation between his eyebrows. With this thought, with a flick of his mind, the sound of the Chen Bell resonated in his consciousness; dong dong dong... his spirit seemingly bathed in the bell’s sound, the swelling sensation gradually dissipating. ..... In the jungle, a force of over ten thousand warriors clad in dark green armor rapidly marched. Even though it was night and they were moving through the remote, dense forest over hills and mountains, their marching speed was extremely fast, as if they were walking on flat ground. Each individual in this force was at least a low-tier Martial Artist. Besides, a group of over a thousand people in black followed at the end of the troop. Boom! Suddenly, a dull booming sound came from afar, and the ground shook slightly. "Stop." A Celestial flying in mid-air suddenly uttered softly. Orders were absolute. The moving army quickly halted. Subsequently, a group of scouts detached from the troop and stealthily sped towards the direction of the blast. Not long after, the halted troops bypassed the noisy area and continued forward. Half an hour later, the scouts returned. "Report to the commander, there seems to have been a cliff collapse in the canyon ahead..." "Cliff collapse?" The Celestial in the air slightly frowned. This season wasn’t the rainy season, nor were there any earthquakes. How could there be a cliff collapse? But he didn’t ponder too long, as he had more important matters to attend to. On a higher mountain terrain, a shadow lurked, watching the activity in the distance. It was Li Qian. After completing the test of the Great River Sword Qi, he intended to leave, but unexpectedly, some people appeared heading this way. This area was desolate and mountainous, and the sudden appearance of people piqued his curiosity. Thus, he secretly followed these people, only to make an even greater discovery—a massive troop swiftly moving through the dense forest. These people wore battle armor, arranged in an orderly manner. Although they didn’t release their Military Heart and Battle Intent, such a formation inevitably made Li Qian suspect this was a Martial Arts Army. A Martial Arts Army appearing in the desolate mountains was somewhat outrageous. The figure flying in the sky was clearly of the Celestial level. Celestial, Martial Arts Army.... The combination of these two indicated this troop had significant intentions. Moreover, the direction of this troop’s march seemed to be... Divine Sword Sect. His brows furrowed, could it be they were planning to covertly attack Divine Sword Sect? But the issue was, the wars within Taixing Dao’s kingdom had already concluded, where did this Martial Arts Army spring from? Once this substantial Martial Arts Army passed, another large group of people in black followed. From these black clad persons, he sensed an aura that belonged to half-demons. "Eh, another half-demon army?" Li Qian was taken aback. Since the Moon Worship Sect’s half-demon army appeared here, that Martial Arts Army was undoubtedly a rebel army, but from which kingdom’s rebels? Ming State belonged to the kingdom controlled by Linyuan Dao, governed by Ning Prince Mansion, and the Ning Prince was an unrelated prince not involved in this rebellion. It was reported that Ning Prince Mansion had always cooperated with the Imperial Family to suppress the rebellion in Ning Prince Mansion. Thus, for the rebels of Ning Prince Mansion to come here, Fortnite would first have to get through the Ning Prince Mansion’s territory, otherwise, a deep penetration alone would be too risky. Moreover, the rebels from Ning Prince Mansion crossed such a distance just to attack Divine Sword Sect? That would be ridiculous. "Unless...suddenly an idea struck him; could it be that a major change has occurred within the borders of Linyuan Dao?" "Why bother guessing, just capture that Heavenly Person and ask directly, right?" Li Qian suddenly had an idea. Now that he had mastered the first layer of the Great River Sword Qi, ordinary Heavenly Persons were nothing to him. Even a Martial Arts Army wasn’t much either. .... Li Tianren was flying in the sky, constantly maintaining a connection with the Martial Arts Army’s aura. Once an emergency occurred, the entire Martial Arts Army could activate their Military Heart and Battle Intent immediately for defense and preparation. He just faintly felt that there were eyes watching him from the dark. But his Spiritual Perception, aided by the Martial Arts Army, scanned the area widely and detected no suspicious targets. This made him wonder if he was just hallucinating. How could there be someone watching him without him sensing it? Yet that feeling of being watched persisted continually. Thus, he had more scout squads search around, but they found nothing. Li Qian, who had been following this Martial Arts Army, saw the increased frequency of their scouts’ searches and knew they must have detected his surveillance. But he didn’t care. With his strength, he didn’t need to be too cautious. Even if they found out someone was spying, so what? Unless he revealed himself, they wouldn’t be able to find him. He tracked them for another half an hour. This Martial Arts Army continuously adjusted their marching route, but their general direction was towards Divine Sword Sect. Li Qian was now a hundred percent sure; this Martial Arts Army was heading for Divine Sword Sect. An army led by a Heavenly Person, a hybrid demon army... a sudden attack on Divine Sword Sect would be disastrous, Divine Sword Sect would be doomed. Even a direct assault on Divine Sword Sect, Divine Sword Sect still couldn’t hold off. Even if Xiao Tianren returned, along with all the people from Xuanzhou Branch... it still wouldn’t change anything. Of course... that was not accounting for his own intervention. "We cannot allow them to approach Divine Sword Sect, it’s best to silently destroy this Martial Arts Army and hybrid demon army in the woods." Li Qian thought silently. "Then, let’s try the offensive power of the Great River Sword Qi." His mental state was still good, performing the Great River Sword Qi once more wasn’t an issue. The previous target was just cliff faces. This time, he would test its power on the Martial Arts Army and the hybrid demon army. Thinking this, Li Qian moved swiftly, flying out from his hiding spot. Just as he appeared, Li Tianren, the commander of the Martial Arts Army, sensed him immediately. "Prepare for battle." He roared. Suddenly, the Martial Arts Army, which had been marching, quickly arranged their battle formation, gathering rolling Military Heart and Battle Intent into a massive ethereal phantom. The over a thousand black-clad figures behind rapidly formed up as well. "Heavenly Person?" Li Tianren frowned as he looked at the person in the black cloak approaching. He dares to confront his Martial Arts Army? Is it ignorance or courage? Although his Martial Arts Army wasn’t as renowned as those famous ones, they could still crush ordinary Heavenly Persons. Unless it was a top-tier Heavenly Person, he was not afraid. "Black cloak?" In the group of black-clad figures behind, a masked figure’s eyes flashed with surprise and suspicion. He was the elder of Moon Worship Sect commanding this hybrid demon army. Three years ago, from the clues left by a deceased Holy Daughter, there was mention of a person in a black cloak. Though black cloaks aren’t rare in Moon Worship Sect... there once was a missing protector who had a Divine Refinement Cloak that could conceal one’s presence. But the appearance of a mysterious Heavenly Person in a black cloak here couldn’t help but arouse his suspicion. "Who are you?" Li Tianren didn’t launch an attack immediately but instead asked. "Hehe, I was about to ask you, where is such a powerful Martial Arts Army heading?" Li Qian stopped a kilometer away from the Martial Arts Army and said with a smile. "We were merely passing by, there shouldn’t be any conflict with you." Li Tianren said. "If you are going to attack Divine Sword Sect, then it does concern me." Li Qian spoke solemnly. "You are a Heavenly Person from Divine Sword Sect? No... Divine Sword Sect only has one Heavenly Person, Xiao Wendao, and clearly, you are not him, why bother intervening?" Li Tianren spoke with a grave tone. But as he spoke, he suddenly made a hand gesture. Instantly, the nearly ten thousand strong Martial Arts Army erupted with a deafening war cry. "Die!" The condensed shadow of their Battle Intent, guided by Li Tianren, suddenly transformed into a massive war blade shadow, fiercely slashing towards where Li Qian was. Such a gathering of Battle Intent could slash souls, snatch spirits, and tear through True Image Level Martial Intent... Once a Heavenly Person’s True Image Level Martial Intent is torn and destroyed, their combat abilities would be greatly reduced. "Let’s test the sharpness of my Great River Sword Qi on your Martial Arts Army then." Li Qian’s eyes remained calm as he murmured softly. As his thoughts moved, the Vast Sword River of Sword Intent in his Sea of Consciousness emerged, revolving around him nonstop, drawing the vast Heaven and Earth Essence Qi from thousands of kilometers around. ......
