Chapter 532: Chapter 247: The Two Sword Sovereigns

Defeat was thorough.

Even the Celestial Maiden Sword was lost.

At this moment, the Celestial Maiden Sword was in Li Changqing’s hand, and many people coveted it, not expecting that Li Changqing also possessed the Ultimate Sword, a weapon of divine power.

Counting the Seven Cyan Lotus Swords, it could be said that nine swords from the Divine Weapon List were already in Li Changqing’s possession.

However, what they didn’t know was that Li Changqing’s collection of sword-type divine weapons included more than just nine swords, as a Red Phosphorus Sword was also lying inside his storage ring.

Now that the fourth-ranked Celestial Maiden Sword was in Li Changqing’s hands, who in the world of sword cultivators wouldn’t covet it?

Although the Celestial Maiden Sword was a sword meant for women, it was still among the top ten divine weapons!

For a time, the envious glances from the crowd did not fade.

"Cyan Lotus Sword Venerable, hand over the sword!" At this moment, a fierce wind swept through, and a figure roared, instantly growing larger and transforming into a giant spirit beast — a Spiritual Ape!

The enormous Spiritual Ape was over ten meters tall, like a small mountain, and Li Changqing was like a small shrimp in front of it.

"It’s the old ancestor from the Southern Wilderness’s Celestial Purity Palace! I didn’t expect his Giant Beast Divine Skill to have reached such a level. It’s said that once unleashed, his physical body rivals a spirit beast’s, with immense strength and power that can be overwhelming — a single slap could kill a cultivator of the same realm."

"With this Giant Ape Ancestor, the Celestial Purity Palace, despite only having a Grandmaster-level cultivator, has managed to hold its ground in the Southern Wilderness."

The crowd buzzed with discussions, and they also wanted to see what Li Changqing was truly capable of.

If he wanted to seize the Celestial Maiden Sword, he would also need the strength to protect it.

"Hmm!"

Li Changqing snorted angrily, understanding the situation clearly; if he didn’t establish his might now, trouble would keep coming. With this Giant Ape Ancestor from the Celestial Purity Palace approaching, Li Changqing didn’t mind using him as an example!

As the Immortal Slaying Platform emerged, with a wave of his hand, Li Changqing made four flying swords stand on the platform!

The Immortal Slaying Sword Array descended in an instant.

Winds and clouds changed, and the four divine weapons within the sword array started to tremble, unleashing an ocean-like surge of Sword Qi.

The figure of the Giant Ape Ancestor was immediately engulfed by the sword array.

The killing intent was sky-high.

The Giant Ape Ancestor instantly felt boundless danger, a feeling of peril that etched deep into his bones.

Currently transformed into a giant ape, with a physical body nearly comparable to a Great Martial Sect expert, he still felt so insignificant within this sword array.

As if he might perish and vanish at any moment.

He roared furiously, eyes bloodshot, trying to struggle, using all his brute strength to launch an attack on the Immortal Slaying Sword Array!

His fists shattered the heavens and the earth.

Colliding with the incoming Sword Qi.

But unfortunately, he underestimated the terrors of the Immortal Slaying Sword Array, unable even to hold on for a breath.

His body was immediately torn apart by Li Changqing’s Sword Qi, turning into a mist of blood!

"Ancestor!"

The many experts from Celestial Purity Palace saw this scene, their eyes instantly turning red.

Their ancestor just perished like that?

A Grandmaster-level expert, capable of rivaling the Great Martial Sect masters, yet under the Cyan Lotus Sword Venerable, couldn’t even withstand a single breath?

Even more despairing to them was the realization that with their ancestor dead, their Celestial Purity Palace had no strong pillars left, suggesting a future of decline in the Southern Wilderness and even possible revenge from enemies.

"Swoosh!"

Li Changqing put away the sword array and swept his gaze across the surroundings.

This rendered all of Wanjie City utterly silent.

They knew the Cyan Lotus Sword Venerable was strong, but they didn’t expect him to be this powerful.

Previously, they only knew that the Cyan Lotus Sword Venerable’s strength could rival the Great Martial Sect, but now, having easily slain the Giant Ape Ancestor of Celestial Purity Palace, even the Great Martial Sect experts present were shocked because if they were in his place, they couldn’t have managed it.

Moreover, despite the robust physical strength of the Giant Ape Ancestor, he was directly slain by that sword array - just what terrifying sword array was it?

Even Lin Qingyi, who was secretly observing the battle, displayed a hint of surprise, also sensing the formidable power of Li Changqing’s sword array.

It felt like since the last encounter with the Cyan Lotus Sword Venerable, his strength had grown even greater this time.

"Have you cultivated to become stronger, or were you hiding your strength before?" Lin Qingyi muttered while stroking his chin, but then lazily returned to his prior indifferent demeanor, as if nothing was of much concern to him.

One had to admit such a display was highly effective; with one move, Li Changqing almost intimidated everyone.

But just at this moment, above the void, a golden cloud soared, and on it, stood a young girl. Her golden green eyes and overall presence exuded a noble aura as she fixed her gaze on the Celestial Maiden Sword in Li Changqing’s hand.

"Isn’t that the little princess of the Zuxuan Family?"

The crowd looked towards the girl.

"I want that sword."

The girl pointed at the Celestial Maiden Sword in Li Changqing’s hand, her words carrying a commanding tone, as if Li Changqing was her servant.

"Those who wanted the Celestial Maiden Sword have just died." Li Changqing frowned and looked at the girl.

Though she was beautiful, the impression she left was exceedingly annoying.

The girl squinted her eyes and said, "There’s nothing I want that I cannot obtain."

"Ancestor, Yun’Er wants that sword."

Suddenly, the girl’s voice rose.

With her words, a thunderous voice sounded: "Leave the sword behind."
