At this moment, hundreds of figures were engaged in fierce aerial combat. The fight was brutally harsh, with corpses occasionally plummeting from the sky. Qingfeng City, it was clear, had come prepared. Black Water City was being pushed back at every turn. Even Zheng Dong was being suppressed by his adversary. A streak of light shot explosively from the south, then stopped above Black Water City. A late-stage sixth-tier Cultivator moved swiftly to intercept Ling Chen. His gaze fell on Ling Chen, and with a cold snicker, he said, "You’re not a Qingfeng City Cultivator. It looks like you are the scum of Black Water City!" Before his words even fell, the late-stage sixth-tier Cultivator launched an attack at Ling Chen. Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩~𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢~𝔫𝔢𝔱 His move was a mid-tier Emperor Spirit Technique! Ling Chen harrumphed coldly, consolidating a Green Lotus Dharma Sword directly. The two attacks met in clash, the Green Lotus Dharma Sword crushed the opponent’s attack with overwhelming force and then pierced through the latter’s forehead. Ling Chen, as a seven-star Emperor, possessed the strength of the seven realms’ World Power, which was something this man could not contend with! After slaying this person, Ling Chen immediately took the Red Long Sword in hand and rushed towards the battlefield where Zheng Dong was. If Zheng Dong died, then there would be no one to help him manage these people. He had entered the World Prison for cultivation and had no time to waste on these people. Ling Chen’s arrival caught the attention of the experts from Qingfeng City. Immediately, two seven-star Emperors flew towards Ling Chen. Both of them made their move, attacking Ling Chen from front and back. Ling Chen once again cast the Green Lotus Dharma Sword, slashing at the Cultivator in front. As for the Cultivator behind him, Ling Chen launched a Divine Soul Attack. The Divine Soul Attack was incredibly fast, almost instantly penetrating the Sea of Consciousness of the seven-star Emperor, annihilating his Divine Soul. The man fell before he could even use his Spirit Art. Ling Chen’s Green Lotus Dharma Sword collided with the opponent’s Spiritual Power Sword. The Spiritual Power Sword shattered instantly. The Green Lotus Dharma Sword continued its strike towards the opponent. This time, Ling Chen imbued it with the Sword Dao. It’s power was even more terrifying! The seven-star Emperor in front’s face changed drastically, hurriedly using his Spiritual Power to protect himself. However, the Green Lotus Dharma Sword, with its tremendous might, completely broke through the seven-star Emperor’s defense and then exploded within him. The seven-star Emperor was dead. "It’s the City Lord!" "Lord City Lord has returned!" Cultivators from Black Water City shouted out in great surprise and joy. They had witnessed Ling Chen’s power. Even the former City Lord was no match for a single encounter with Ling Chen, let alone the City Lord of Qingfeng City. The Cultivators were greatly encouraged and fought desperately. Qingfeng City’s City Lord Mo Qinglan, who was pressing Zheng Dong in battle, wore a look of surprise. Wasn’t the Lord of Black Water City Zheng Dong? How did it become this young kid? Zheng Dong was also incredibly excited. He really couldn’t hold on much longer. Originally, Mo Qinglan’s cultivation level was not much different from his own, but over the recent period, his cultivation had actually heightened somewhat, reaching a mid-tier eight-star. With all his might, he finally held on until Ling Chen’s return. "Zheng Dong, go assist the others. Leave this one to me!" Ling Chen said with a smile. Zheng Dong responded respectfully. Mo Qinglan’s gaze fell on Ling Chen, and with a slight chuckle, he said, "A mere early-tier seven-star Emperor dares to battle with me?" He was a mid-tier eight-star Emperor. Dealing with a seven-star Emperor would be effortless. He did not even need to use his trump card. "Mo Qinglan, is it? Who gave you the audacity to attack the city under my charge?" "Young fool spouting nonsense, die!" Mo Qinglan couldn’t be bothered with idle chatter. The blue longsword in his hand shone brightly as sword qi burst forth. "Blue Emperor Sword!" Soon, the sword qi condensed into a blue-golden longsword, slashing towards Ling Chen. Mo Qinglan used a medium-grade Emperor Spirit Technique. There was no need to use a high-grade Emperor Spirit Technique, his trump card, against a seven-star Royal Cultivator. He believed this sword strike was enough to kill Ling Chen. He really didn’t understand, had Zheng Dong taken leave of his senses? To actually submit in front of this kid! "This level of attack could defeat me?" "Green Lotus Dharma Sword!" Ling Chen inwardly shouted, and a three-inch green-red small sword condensed and slashed towards the opponent’s blue-golden longsword. Mo Qinglan’s eyes narrowed. This seven-star Royal Cultivator had actually mastered the Sword Dao, and even the level of comprehension seemed no less than his. Mo Qinglan soon came to terms with it: "I want to see how you withstand my eightfold World Power." With the reinforcement of eightfold World Power, even if Ling Chen mastered the Sword Dao, he couldn’t possibly be his opponent! The two spirit swords collided in midair. Terrifying shockwaves swept around them. When the shockwaves dissipated, both spirit swords had shattered into pieces, dispersing into countless spiritual energies between heaven and earth. "How is this possible?" Mo Qinglan’s smile instantly froze. His strike, was actually unable to harm Ling Chen? "Only this much prowess for a mid-eight-star?" Ling Chen shook his head lightly. "Forget it, I won’t waste time with you." Ling Chen’s gaze suddenly became sharp. "Green Lotus Dharma Sword!" Ling Chen once again used the fifth form of the medium-grade Emperor Spirit Technique level Green Lotus Sword Manual. Mo Qinglan snorted coldly and said: "You think this level of attack can defeat me? Boy, open your stupid eyes wide and watch, this is my true power!" "Profound Blue Ice Serpent!" Vast spiritual power burst forth from Mo Qinglan’s body, then infused into the longsword in his hand, with one hundred and forty-four blue sword qi breaking out from the blade. "It’s a high-grade Emperor Spirit Technique!" Many exclaimed at the terrifying fluctuations they felt. "You dare to use a high-grade Emperor Spirit Technique before me?" A three-inch green-red small sword floated in front of Ling Chen. Ling Chen exclaimed in a low voice, and the three-inch small sword charged towards Mo Qinglan. In front of him, an Ice Blue Serpent was gradually taking shape, even the scales were extremely clear. Ling Chen sneered, immediately launching a Divine Soul Attack. The Great Sun Seal instantly entered Mo Qinglan’s Sea of Consciousness. Mo Qinglan felt as if his Divine Soul was struck by lightning, followed by a burning, excruciating pain that spread out. He let out a shrill scream. The nearly formed Ice Serpent immediately lost control. The Ice Serpent exploded in an instant. This sudden turn of events left Mo Qinglan unable to react. Despite being protected by spiritual power, he was still sent flying. By the time he came to his senses, a three-inch green-red small sword was rapidly enlarging in his field of vision. The green-red small sword pierced directly into Mo Qinglan’s forehead. Then it passed through the back of his head. And then, Mo Qinglan’s Divine Soul was directly exterminated by the green-red small sword. Mo Qinglan’s eyes gradually lost their luster. Then he plunged into darkness. His body suddenly fell towards the ground!
