Chapter 512 Chapter 512 Calamity Qi Six

 At the end of the competition, Li Chengyi stepped off the stage with a smile.

 He lost, but no one dared to underestimate him. After all, in terms of pure sword skills, he could actually exchange so many moves with his senior brother.

 It wasn’t until later in the competition of cultivation that he took the initiative to admit defeat. This means that he, Bai Lu, is not much weaker than his senior brother in faceless sword fighting.

After coming down, Yuan Qi from the Time Gate gave him a thumbs up with admiration.

“I’ll send someone to deliver the snowdrops I lost to you later. How many do you want?”

 “The more, the better.” Li Chengyi said with a smile.

“Damn it, I really thought snow lotus was so easy to find.” Yuan Qi scolded with a smile, “Even in our time gate, it is an absolute treasure.”

“I don’t ask for any year, as long as it blooms.” Li Chengyi added.

“Really?” Yuan Qi thought Bai Lu was saying polite words before, but now he emphasized it again and suddenly became serious.

 “Seriously.”

“Okay, can I have a hundred flowers?”

"OK!"

 Hurry to discuss the contact information, and then Li Chengyi will send the Holy Infant Volcano brothers to the Years Gate to receive the goods.

 The two of them decided on the time and place.

On the other side, Zhaoyuan bit her lip tightly and looked at the now empty competition stage, with complex emotions intertwined in her eyes.

 She knew that there was a huge gap between herself and Bailu, but she didn't expect it to be so big.

Even senior brother can't defeat the opponent in pure swordsmanship. This is simply...

 “Look. Look.” Qiuchen came again, with a hateful smile on her baby-fat little face.

“Who is here who can’t accept the reality~~Who is it!~~Seeing that Senior Brother Bailu’s strength is even recognized by the senior brother, don’t you feel good in your heart? Tsk tsk tsk.”

“I’ve said it before, how can a superficial woman like you, who only has a face, understand how powerful and outstanding Senior Brother Bailu is?” Qiu Chen covered her mouth and let out a weird laugh.

"What did you say, you ugly woman?! Who won in the end!? If Bailu had the ability, why didn't he continue the competition? Why did he take the initiative to admit defeat!? It's not as good as it is, what excuse can you make!" Zhaoyuan exploded and immediately laughed. A bunch of words that he refused to admit spewed out from his mouth.

“Fart! If Senior Brother Bailu had been born three years earlier, he would definitely be no worse than Senior Brother! You know what a fart!” Qiu Chen was also furious because he dared to insult her idol like this.

"I don't understand, I only know that senior brother is the strongest! What? Not convinced? If you're not convinced, why don't you let your senior brother Bailu beat senior brother?" Zhaoyuan sneered.

 The two began to fight again on the spot.

 A few minutes later, the two women started to fight with each other and drew their swords to start the duel. Bai He hurriedly tried to dissuade the two women, pulling one and persuading the other. He was sweating profusely after struggling with them, and then he pulled the two women to comfort them.

 Huo Qingkong had no time to pay attention to this trivial matter and had already accompanied several elders to visit other places.

 The senior officials had also left, leaving only a few disciples who wanted to watch the beauties having sex, surrounding them from afar.

Li Chengyi didn’t look at Zhaoyuan at all and turned around to return to his residence.

 After a few moments of dodging, he returned to Kuiling's attic and entered the resting bedroom.

He casually hung the Dingyuan Sword on the wall, picked up the crystal jars containing yellow heart-shaped gemstones on the table, and shook them gently.

The jar made a crisp clanging sound, which was extremely pleasant to the ear and calmed his somewhat worried heart.

 Sitting at the desk, Li Chengyi reviewed the previous confrontation.

 ‘In terms of simple sword strikes, it’s hard for me to win or lose with him, but in terms of cultivation, he is far superior to me. And that kind of speed and calmness is a bit exaggerated.’

　　‘Now, if I fight with all my strength, I may not be able to secure a chance of victory. Even if you reveal your true form and use the Flower Language and Flower Scale Clothes, it will be difficult. As long as the senior brother has even a trace of the characteristics of the Faceless Scholar, it will be very difficult. ’

 After thinking for a moment, Li Chengyi decided to find an opportunity to have a good talk with his senior brother.

If the Seven Mindful Mind Techniques he has discovered on his own can help Huo Qingkong, it may be able to rewrite the future of this blind spot.

 Rewrite the ending where everyone including Kui Ling must die.

This trip once again established his reputation as a top genius. In this way, the method he shared with Huo Qingkong should also receive more attention.

 As soon as he thought of it, Li Chengyi stood up immediately, put down the jar, and left the room.

 In the afternoon.

 The people from the Time Gate finally left.

 The people of the sword sect returned each other, resting and practicing their swordsmanship.

 A convoy transporting swords and offering ore slowly entered the gate of the Sword Sect. After Huo Qingkong pointed out a few deacons and disciples who were seeking advice, his body flashed and turned into a black line, which flashed several times in succession.

 He has arrived inside the entire Faceless Sword Sect mountain.

 The interior is a huge cavity.

There is no living thing in the cavity. In the dark cave, there are only traces of dark red smoke, flowing and lingering, faintly emitting some kind of evil light.

 This is calamity.

 Only when you reach the cultivation level above the Seal Ring can you see its existence form.

 Any person or thing will be affected by calamity. If the calamity is condensed too much, calamity will be formed.

The calamity is inevitable and cannot be avoided, so the best way is to dissolve the calamity energy before the calamity condenses so that it cannot condense.

"You are here? Qingkong." At this time, in the air not far away, the Holy Spirit Taoist who came from unknown time was also standing and floating in the air.

 “The intensity of calamity is getting stronger and stronger, over there at the eye of qi”

"This time, I will dissolve, master." Huo Qingkong said seriously.

 The eye of qi is the strongest part of the tribulation qi, and it has always been solved by the Holy Spirit Taoist himself before.

 But now the Holy Spirit ministers are gradually unable to do what they want. After returning from the last ablation, I became seriously ill for several days and my injuries have not healed. Now Huo Qingkong realizes that his strength has grown again and decides to help his master take on the important task.

"If it were you, it might be possible." The Holy Spirit didn't know how strong the disciples were now. But it’s okay to let him try.

 He pondered for a moment, then suddenly stretched out his hand.

The calamity in front of the two people suddenly opened a channel, leading to the deepest part.

"Cut everything with the sword of wisdom, don't stop! Go and come back quickly!" the Holy Spirit warned.

"Yes!" Huo Qingkong picked up the sword technique and carried the sword pouch on his back, ready to release the sword at any time.

Flying into the passage, he quickly found the dark red vortex eye shape that his master had mentioned.

　　Immediately, the sword of wisdom condensed and turned into a transparent beam of light, which shot forward with a bang.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 simultaneously!

The sword light pierced the dark red vortex and immediately made a hole in it. The hole healed quickly, but the overall size shrank somewhat.

'efficient! ’

Huo Qingkong continued to release the Wisdom Sword with all his strength one after another.

He was a little relaxed, and Hui Jian's power could not break his eyes, and there were even traces of re -recovery.

This forced him to firm up his mind and continue to fire the sword of wisdom.

It wasn't until half an hour later that the air was completely dispersed and disappeared, that he breathed a sigh of relief and turned back as quickly as possible.

 At this time, the surrounding calamity aura also became much lighter.

The Holy Spirit Taoist was still waiting at the same place, and when he saw that he had successfully turned back, his face suddenly showed a look of relief.

“After the calamity energy is dispersed, it will not gather again until a year later, so you have to come here once a year to resolve the calamity energy. This time it is resolved, and next time it will be the turn of the other elders. You can go back and rest.”

“Yes.” Huo Qingkong saluted and stepped back.

 After leaving the inner cavity, he breathed a sigh of relief and frowned. No wonder the teacher has not dared to leave the Sword Sect for so many years. In addition to the Faceless Temple, another factor should be the calamity, right?

　　‘Your teacher is lying to you. ’

Just as he was about to return to rest, on the way back, a voice so familiar that he didn’t know how many times he heard it sounded in his mind again.

 It’s the Demon Emperor!

'What do you mean? ’ Huo Qingkong’s eyes were slightly cold.

'What's the meaning? Do you really think that calamity and qi are something that can be solved so easily? ’ The Demon Emperor smiled and said, ‘My demon clan also has the same thing, but every time the calamity energy is dispersed, it takes the lives of at least three ring-seal masters to resolve it. You were able to defeat the calamity just now by exerting your strength as easily as if you were out on a sightseeing trip? too naive. ’

'reason? ’ Huo Qingkong has now learned to ignore the large amount of nonsense and invalid content mixed by the Demon Emperor as much as possible, and only focus on the key points.

“The reason is naturally that Taoist Holy Spirit only allocates a little bit of calamity energy to you, allowing you to adapt first and experience the difficulty. ’ Demon Emperor said.

Huo Qingkong was silent.

 ‘Actually, do you want to completely and permanently resolve the calamity? ’ The demon emperor started again.

His words are sometimes true and sometimes false, but most of the time they are useful.

 ‘Do you have any idea? ’ Huo Qingkong’s face was expressionless.

 ‘I can help you find the real tribulation qi eye. Our clan's research on calamity is much deeper than yours. I tell you clearly that if you want to completely solve the calamity qi, breaking up the qi eyes is just a temporary measure. ’

 ‘Are you willing to tell me the real solution? ’ Huo Qingkong frowned.

'why not? ’ The Demon Emperor smiled and said, ‘You should have guessed something by now, right? For example, my relationship with you’

　　‘There is no relationship between us. ’ Huo Qingkong said lightly.

 ‘Hey, the catastrophe is coming, do you really think that the Faceless Sword Sect is just lucky enough to pick up a Taoist boy with such terrifying talent as you just by wandering outside? ? ’ The Demon Emperor laughed. ‘The coincidences in this world are not just coincidences and catastrophes, nor are they just the catastrophes of your Faceless Sword Sect. Do you remember my heels? ’

Huo Qingkong had actually guessed that the Demon Emperor’s consciousness was always attached to him, and no matter where he went, he could communicate with him anytime, anywhere without any delay.

What this means is now clearer to him.

 But it was precisely because of his clarity that he understood that his current strength was not enough to allow the future to move forward according to his will.

‘I can take you to find the source of the Qi Eye, but you must first achieve the harmony of good and evil. Otherwise, your strength will not be able to defeat the source. ’ The Demon Emperor continued.

 ‘Is it necessary to light a real fire? ’ Huo Qingkong asked in a deep voice.

 ‘If you want to be detached, that’s the minimum. And it can't be a weak real fire like your master. You have to become stronger, stronger! You are so strong that no one in this world can compete with you. So strong that all living beings die but you don’t! Only then can we see the final glimmer of hope. ’ Demon Emperor said. There was a trace of temptation in his voice that was extremely difficult to detect.

 ‘Good and evil blend together.’ Huo Qingkong murmured and looked up at the sky, remaining silent for a while. A faint strange aura rose up and appeared on his body, then quickly disappeared.

Far away in mid-air.

Li Chengyi flew towards here from the air, and was about to greet and salute from a distance. Suddenly his mind trembled, and his consciousness, which had been stabilized by the snow lotus, suddenly became chaotic at this moment, as if he was being pulled by some unknown force. .

 He clearly saw the strange aura flashing across Huo Qingkong's body.

At the moment when the aura emerged, a huge sense of threat rushed into his mind like a tsunami.

 ‘Danger danger danger danger danger! ’

Li Chengyi paused and stopped moving forward. Instead, he pondered, his expression remained unchanged, turned around and left quietly.

 ‘Sure enough. Sure enough, it’s not just the backlash of the technique! This time, I’m really in trouble.’ Li Chengyi himself also had backlash from his skills, and he could clearly recognize that the strange aura just now was not caused by backlash.

Rather, it was a completely unfamiliar and strange atmosphere that he had never seen before.

 No. Not that I have never seen it.

 Suddenly, deep in his memory, he recalled the horror of the first time he saw the faceless scholar.

 The faceless scholar at that time seemed to have such an aura about him.

 But it seemed that the aura of the faceless scholar was not strong. At least not as strong as the one he just felt from Huo Qingkong.
