Chapter 481 - 479: Wrapping Up

Chapter 481: Chapter 479: Wrapping Up

The newcomers were comparable to the Twelfth Realm.

These three guys each held a Tier Twelve Dao Artifact in their hands. Su Qing knew they were no simple foes.

Unfortunately for them,

they had run into Su Qing.

Su Qing was like a cheater in a game; he didn’t play by the rules.

Profound Immortal Sword Rule: Time Stop.

The surroundings seemed to freeze, as if bound by shackles.

Su Qing swung his sword.

The three guys were also subjected to Standardization, dissipating completely.

Three Twelfth Realm cultivators, killed with a single sword strike.

Devouring.

He absorbed all of their Energy.

It wasn’t much, but it was still Energy.

’No reason not to take what’s free.’

After Time returned to normal,

the three guys seemed to have simply vanished into thin air.

"Who are you?"

Even the Life God standing to the side was startled. She had no idea how the three men before her had disappeared.

But it was highly likely related to the man in front of her.

A pure-blooded member of the Human Race.

But she had to be on guard. This was the core of the Taichu Daoist Palace.

Life could trust no one but herself.

"Su Qing of the Taichu Daoist Palace."

"I’ve secured this core."

"I hope Your Excellency, Life God, will keep some distance from the Taichu Hub." Su Qing couldn’t tell if she was here to destroy it or protect it.

’It would be better for everyone if we all stayed far away from the Taichu Hub.’

"Su Qing, I know who you are."

"However, the farthest I can be from the Taichu Hub is ten zhang. Any farther is not an option. You are also not to approach the Taichu Hub."

"Of course, no problem."

"To be honest, I’ve been wondering if you’re really the Life God. The Life God has already broken through to the Thirteenth Realm."

"You’re a Twelfth Realm Cultivator. Although your aura and appearance are very similar, I can’t bet on you not wanting to destroy it as well."

"Don’t try anything funny."

"For me, killing a Twelfth Realm cultivator is as easy as crushing an ant."

Su Qing’s Profound Immortal Sword floated to the right of his hand.

But the powerful aura emanating from Su Qing made Life’s expression turn grave.

’He’s too confident, too powerful.’

’They say he possesses the Power of Time.’

"Let’s discuss this matter after the turmoil is over."

"Given what’s happening here in Taichu, you must know how big the conflict is."

"They are fighting over some sort of authority."

"That’s quite normal,"

Life explained from the side.

Su Qing sat to the side and started eating a tree leaf.

"Whatever. I’ll deal with the other cultivators inside the Taichu Daoist Palace first. I can’t just stand guard by the Taichu Hub forever."

Su Qing’s Profound Immortal Sword stood planted in the ground some distance from the Taichu Hub.

But the sword radiated the aura of a Tier Thirteen item, and Life felt a chill just looking at it.

An Eleventh Realm Cultivator was actually able to wield a Tier Thirteen Dao Artifact. And from the looks of it, the burden on Su Qing didn’t seem to be great.

This meant that Su Qing’s true strength definitely surpassed the limits of the Eleventh Realm.

’Isn’t he practicing the Taichu Cultivation Method?’

’If he were cultivating normally, it’d be impossible to possess such terrifying strength.’

’This Su Qing definitely has a secret.’

’I recall Taichu once saying this member of the Human Race was a bit interesting.’

’But only just interesting.’

’I never expected him to be this outrageous.’

As for Su Qing,

his Soul Power was now blanketing the entire Taichu Daoist Palace.

There were no Twelfth Realm experts left.

Only Cultivators below the Eleventh Realm remained.

’Killing them will be so simple.’

A small Dao Ming formed from Spatial Power

would be enough to wipe out all these Cultivators.

Immediately after,

inside the Taichu Daoist Palace,

a kind of dark, deep space appeared in most places. The instant it manifested, all of the Cultivators hostile to the Clumsy Head Palace

were turned to ash.

Everyone saw that terrifying Dao Ming attack.

Only a few knew who had launched it.

"Su Qing!" Bai Di was stunned for a moment.

"It’s Su Qing." Zhu Yuan, his opponent gone, also broke into a smile.

He hadn’t expected Su Qing to make a move.

"It was Su Qing who acted."

"I didn’t expect him to have gotten even stronger." World Master also let out a breath of relief.

The wounds on his body were rapidly healing.

He plopped down onto the ground.

"It’s tough not having a good weapon. I can’t believe I got schooled by a Tier Eleven Dao Artifact this time."

A Cultivator with a Dao Artifact and one without were practically on two different levels of power.

World Master had nearly been severely injured by the Dao Artifact.

Within the Taichu Daoist Palace,

things almost instantly returned to their former tranquility.

Because there were no enemies left.

Everyone began to repair the Taichu Daoist Palace.

...

"What a technique!"

"You brat, to think you could kill cultivators of the same realm from a distance in an instant. Even I would need some time to clean all of them up."

Life, at the side, also sensed that there were no enemies left inside the Taichu Daoist Palace.

She couldn’t help but marvel at how strangely powerful Su Qing was.

He was clearly in the Eleventh Realm,

yet he was terrifyingly strong.

Although he had eliminated those people,

Su Qing did not choose to leave.

Because this was the core of the Taichu Daoist Palace.

If something were to happen,

Su Qing would suffer a great loss.

’What if there’s a traitor in the Taichu Daoist Palace?’

’What if the Life God before my eyes is the traitor?’

Not unless Taichu himself returned.

But who knew where Taichu and the others were fighting, or when they would be back.

"You’re not leaving?"

Su Qing asked the Life God beside him.

She shook her head. "You’re not leaving either."

"If you don’t leave, how could I dare to?"

"Same here."

How could Su Qing dare to leave?

He wouldn’t leave.

He could only wait for Taichu to return.

If the Taichu Daoist Palace were to fall,

wouldn’t Su Qing’s protective umbrella be gone?

Su Qing hadn’t even reached the Twelfth Realm yet. He needed a stable environment for his Cultivation.

At least until he reached the Thirteenth Realm.

That was what Su Qing was thinking, anyway.

He had only been guarding for a short while

when a Twelfth Realm Cultivator arrived in the Taichu Daoist Palace.

A Twelfth Realm expert of the Water Dao Path.

He was a golden-haired man.

"Greetings, Lady Life."

"Lady Life, you..." The newcomer was puzzled, having instantly perceived that the Life God was at the Twelfth Realm.

Life smiled. "I had an accident in my Cultivation. Li De, you’ve actually advanced to the Twelfth Realm."

"I see."

"No wonder it felt like you had disappeared, milady. There was no news of you at all."

Then, Li De looked over at Su Qing.

"Hello, Su Qing. It’s a pleasure to meet a genius like you. My name is Li De."

"Hello, Li De."

Su Qing replied with a smile.

Li De’s appearance indeed made Su Qing a little suspicious that he might be here to destroy the core of the Taichu Daoist Palace.

But on second thought, if he were really a traitor,

he probably would have been lying in ambush nearby from the very beginning.

He could have easily destroyed it when the incident broke out.

Unless this place was originally protected by some kind of Array, in which case it would be a different story.

"I just rushed over to the Taichu Daoist Palace from elsewhere. Lady Life, you all aren’t leaving?" Li De’s words made both Life and Su Qing feel on edge.

Because his words were so obvious.

It felt like his intentions weren’t pure.

Life shook her head. "Li De, you should leave now. Su Qing and I are here to guard the Taichu Hub."

"There’s no need to trouble you."

"It’s no problem. I am willing to guard the Taichu Daoist Palace alongside the Life God." Li De revealed a brilliant smile.

He made no other moves.

Li De could clearly see that the way the two of them looked at him was a bit off.

If he were to make any extra movements at this moment,

Li De felt that the two would absolutely attack him directly.

He just had to sit down where he was

and watch the two of them.

Although Su Qing was a little displeased,

he didn’t dwell on it.

’As long as he doesn’t make a move, he’s still a student of the Taichu Daoist Palace.’

Su Qing couldn’t possibly attack him based on baseless suspicion.

That would be disrespectful to the man.

Before the other party truly made a move,

Su Qing would not act.

’Then we’ll just wait.’

"Yo, it’s so crowded here."

"Oh, greetings, Lady Life."

"Is this your clone, milady?"

Life didn’t say much, just shook her head. "No."

Life didn’t want to explain too much either.

"Li De, you’re here too. And the Demon from the Taichu Daoist Palace, Su Qing."

The newcomer was a young-looking man from the Human Race—the real deal, with black hair and black eyes. He looked a bit nonchalant.

But his strength was at the Twelfth Realm.
