Chapter 299: Di Nufeng's Playground

In the Catalog of the Mortal World’s Ten Thousand Treasures, the Dharma Lotus Platform was ranked eighth, the True Form of Ksitigarbha was ranked tenth, and the Violet and Azure Twin Swords were ranked seventeenth.

In the world of immortality cultivators, the first ten treasures were typically categorized as tier one, the next ten as tier two, and anything beyond the top thirty fell into yet another tier. Therefore, there was a difference in tier between the Violet and Azure Twin Swords and the top two legendary artifacts.

However, this did not mean that top-tier legendary artifacts were superior in every aspect.

Take the second-ranked Seven-Star Sword as an example. Compared to the first-ranked Demon-Suppressing Pagoda, the Seven-Star Sword did not possess the unparalleled power to subdue a ninth-realm existence.

However, in terms of the destructive power of a single slaying technique, the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda fell short when compared to the Seven-Star Sword, which was crafted solely for the purpose of attacking.

Therefore, although the Dharma Lotus Platform displayed many mystical abilities, its absolute offensive power was indeed slightly inferior to the Violet and Azure Twin Swords.

This was why the Dharma Lotus Platform did not inflict significant damage on the True Form of Ksitigarbha despite having attacked twice in succession.

However, the True Form of Ksitigarbha would not dare to underestimate this sword strike from Chu Liang.

Due to the suddenness of Chu Liang's sword strike, the Violet and Azure sword lights blazed across the sky like a long rainbow. The True Form of Ksitigarbha had no choice but to hastily raise a palm to block the attack head-on.

As the True Form of Ksitigarbha raised its palm, a rumbling sound filled the air. Countless chains extended from the void, their metallic clinks growing louder as they were pulled tight. Thousands of sealing forces converged, suppressing Ksitigarbha's palm with immense power.

Without the terrifying seal, the true power of the True Form of Ksitigarbha was unimaginable. Could it surpass the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda and claim the title of the strongest legendary artifact, capable of challenging even the mightiest ninth-realm existences? —

The sword qi collided with the palm of the True Form of Ksitigarbha, and in an instant, a brilliant light surged. For a fleeting moment, the light seemed to freeze.

With the support from the Longevity of Heaven and Earth, the power Chu Liang unleashed with the legendary sword was almost as powerful as the force needed to slay a being at the Heavenly Origin Realm!

When the light dissipated, an obvious hole could be seen in the palm of the True Form of Ksitigarbha. Although no blood flowed from its body, it was clear that it had been injured!

After the sword strike, the True Form of Ksitigarbha suddenly looked up and let out a thunderous roar, "Raaaaaar!"

With this earth-shaking roar, the wind and clouds surged violently, and the black sun reappeared, casting the world into an abyss of darkness. No trace of light remained as a powerful black hurricane erupted, sweeping from north to south, engulfing Mount Shu in its fearsome grasp!

Taking advantage of the brief chaos, the disciples of the Dark King Sect fled towards White-Bone Mountain, the black whale, and other enchanted mounts, desperately trying to escape!

The righteous cultivators naturally did not want to let them escape, but in this oppressive darkness, the disciples with slightly weaker cultivation levels felt their souls wavering, constantly at risk of being swept away by the hurricane!

"Sadhuuuuuuu."

It was only when the old monk on the Dharma Lotus Platform started chanting a Buddhist phrase that everyone’s souls began to stabilize.

However, those at the seventh realm had no such concerns and pursued their fleeing enemies to their heart's content.

Especially at this moment, a burst of fire erupted from the southwest, accompanied by an indignant roar. "Devils, don’t you flee!"

Di Nufeng's fist, surrounded by purple-gold flames and infused with the crimson-gold blood qi of the Phoenix Spirit Blood Jade, fiercely struck toward the giant black whale!

Fortunately, a nearby azure river surged into a giant wave, forming a towering barrier that blocked the punch.

The black whale couldn't risk picking up more disciples of the Dark King Sect. And so, even before all the men of the Northern Abyss Hall had boarded, the black whale fled in haste!

Otherwise, if Di Nufeng's punch had landed, even this giant whale, that was as big as a hill, couldn't withstand it and would likely have been killed by a single blow!

As for Lu Chengchou, he was pinned down by Venerable Wen Yuan's palm. His eyes suddenly widened in shock, his mouth opened in a silent gasp, and he froze motionless.

He seemed dead.

Venerable Wen Yuan frowned.

With the departure of the True Form of Ksitigarbha, the black sun vanished and daylight was restored. The righteous forces then set about eliminating the remaining disciples of the diabolical sect, cleansing the battlefield of their evil presence.

The Dharma Lotus Platform in the sky emitted a radiant Buddha light, enveloping all of Mount Shu and causing everyone to glow with vibrant rainbow colors.

This made it impossible for any disciples of the diabolical sect to hide!

The thirty-six peaks of Mount Shu immediately became Di Nufeng's playground!

"Little thing, where are you running!"

"Hehe!"

A fiery figure with wings spread wide leaped through the air, leaving intense afterimages. Each blazing spark claimed an enemy, lighting up the battlefield with relentless fury!

The disciples of the Mount Shu Sect and various other immortal sects gradually stopped, not daring to approach or pursue further...

They were all scared that they might be accidentally injured. These young disciples had only heard of Di Nufeng's notorious reputation in Mount Shu but did not realize just how terrifying she truly was.

After witnessing today's scene, they immediately understood.

Di Nufeng was both ruthless and exceptionally skilled at combat. No one would want to encounter an enemy like her!

Venerable Wen Yuan did not participate in the battle on the ground. Instead, he turned around and pointed towards Guardian Peak with a serious expression!

Amidst thunderous roars, countless rocks rose from the ground, swirling around Baize's giant egg and rapidly reassembling into a towering mountain. In the blink of an eye, dense trees grew back on the rocks.

In an instant, a mountain peak was effortlessly rebuilt!

...

Chu Liang did not participate in cleaning up the battlefield. After killing Taowu with one strike and injuring the True Form of Ksitigarbha with another, he felt the power of the Whale-Riding Immortal withdraw from his body. The moment that happened, Chu Liang experienced an indescribable pain in his meridians, bones, and soul.

Every part of his body had been forcibly and violently expanded by the immense power, far beyond what his body could endure!

This was the power of the immortal art, Longevity of Heaven and Earth. Under normal circumstances, even a seventh-realm Eminent One infusing foundational qi into the body of a fourth-realm cultivator would be enough to rupture their meridians and flesh, causing them to explode. It didn’t need to be the power of an eighth realm.

However, after using the Longevity of Heaven and Earth, Chu Liang only experienced the side effect of full-body pain. This was not entirely bad for him; it served as a valuable learning experience. If he were to control a more powerful force in the future, he would be able to handle it more skillfully.

He wanted to thank the Whale-Riding Immortal, but he could no longer find him. At this point, Mount Shu was in chaos, a state that would likely persist for some time.

Chu Liang first spotted Liu Xiaoyu'er in the crowd.

The young girl was squatting in a corner under the stage, terrified by what had just happened, but luckily she was unharmed.

Chu Liang felt a wave of relief wash over him, which made him ponder why the safety of a koi fish concerned him so deeply.

Despite his musings, he knew the situation was still unstable. And so, he decided to send Liu Xiaoyu'er back to Silver Sword Peak.

The Golden-Furred Hou was still guarding the peak, and Chu Liang couldn't help but worry if the Golden-Furred Hou might be in danger.

But what he found was beyond his expectations.

The Golden-Furred Hou was fine, but their home was gone...

"I'm so stupid. Seriously..."

Chu Liang stared at the chaos before him. A quarter of the fruits had been devoured, another quarter lay uprooted from the garden, and amidst it all, the Golden-Furred Hou slept soundly, completely oblivious to the destruction surrounding it.

His gaze was lifeless, his whole body trembled, and his heart ached.

"I always knew the members of the diabolical sect were evil, but I didn't expect their bottom line to be so low that they wouldn't even spare innocent fruits!"
