Chapter 161 - 161 107 Challenging Zhunti Part 1

161: Chapter 107: Challenging Zhunti (Part 1) 161: Chapter 107: Challenging Zhunti (Part 1) “Qingmingzi!” Zhunti gritted his teeth as he uttered three words, his eyes filled with resentment as he looked towards Li Qingming.

The overwhelming bitterness seemed ready to burst through the Yun Xiao.

“Ah ha!” Li Qingming raised his eyebrows lightly, feigning surprise as he said: “Why does Master Uncle call out to his disciple with such a heavy tone?

Could it be that you miss me too much?”

“Boom!”

The humiliation at the base of Mount Buzhou, the mockery in Yujing Mountain, the oppression within Zixiao Palace…

Various scenes flashed through his mind, and Zhunti could no longer suppress the raging fury within his heart.

His eyes, distinct in their black and white, shone with a cold and ruthless light, slicing through the air like a sword unsheathed, sweeping towards Li Qingming.

Endless Saintly Pressure enveloped and bore down on Li Qingming from all sides.

Such might belonged to Saints; if it were any ordinary Cultivator, they would’ve likely exploded into pieces, their Primordial Spirit extinguished.

Fortunately, Li Qingming had already stored the Peacock and the Roc into his Magic Treasure.

Otherwise, how could these two freshly transformed postnatal entities withstand the Saintly Pressure?

Under this immense pressure, Li Qingming remained calm and fearless, continuing to clap his hands and said, “Tsk tsk, what a grand aura, Master Uncle Zhunti!” At the same time, Li Qingming’s body suddenly radiated a force no weaker than that of a Saint, confronting Zhunti on equal footing.

Within a hundred miles, the birds and beasts all wailed, lying prostrate on the ground, trembling in fear, feeling a terror from their souls at the pressure emanating from the two of them.

As Zhunti was unabashedly emitting his aura, The Three Pure Ones sitting quietly in the Three Pure Ones Hall of East Kunlun all opened their eyes.

“Two elder brothers, is that Zhunti?” Tongtian glanced in the direction of Tiannan and asked.

“Why has Zhunti come to our Eastern region uninvited?

What could he be up to?” Laozi’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, twisted into a ‘chuan’ character.

The Primordial Venerable did not speak, but his constantly moving hands revealed his urgent mood.

“Hmm?

Zhunti, you scoundrel, how dare you bully me!” After a long while, Primordial Venerable was outraged and suddenly got up, ready to Break the Void and go.

Laozi and Tongtian, not understanding the situation, looked towards Li Qingming in confusion.

“The Heavenly affairs are complicated now, I have only calculated that it relates to my disciple Qingmingzi, and it is extremely dangerous!

Qingming, my disciple, might face the danger of falling!” Primordial Venerable spoke with an anxious tone.

“This truly cannot be tolerated!

This Zhunti is a Heavenly Dao Saint, yet he personally strikes against Qingmingzi, a junior!

Truly the utmost shameless!” Tongtian’s body was bursting with rage, and the Four Immortal Slaying Swords uttered a “clang clang” sound.

Laozi frowned and stopped them, saying, “My two worthy brothers, please stay your impatience!

Disciple Qingmingzi’s Mana and Cultivation have reached a transformative realm, and he possesses countless Divine Skills and Spells.

I suspect that Zhunti may not get the better of him as easily as he thinks!”

With that said, Laozi waved his hand lightly and a crystal-like Mirror appeared in the Void, revealing the scene where Li Qingming was, the intersection of the Five Elements and Yin and Yang in Tiannan.

“Should Qingmingzi face danger, it will not be too late for us to rescue him then!” said Laozi with a solemn expression.

Although anxious for his disciple, regrettably, they had to obey the order from Laozi, their elder brother.

With no other option, Primordial and Tongtian sat down cross-legged, watching Li Qingming and Zhunti in the Water Mirror.

“Qingmingzi, you’ve insulted me several times.

Today, this Venerable will settle our account!

You shall understand that the rules of Heaven and Earth cannot be dictated by a junior like you!” Zhunti’s expression was ferocious, completely losing the dignity of a Saint.

“Oh?

Does Master Uncle Zhunti intend to teach me on behalf of my Master?” Li Qingming’s face bore a slight smile, showing not a trace of anger.

“Insolent junior, still so arrogant!” Zhunti immediately erupted in rage, his body flickering with golden light.

The six-foot-tall Buddha Mother Golden Body exhaled auspicious mists and wrapped in a myriad of golden radiance, suddenly appearing in the Void.

“Go!” With a light shout from Zhunti, the Buddha Mother Golden Body transformed into a blazing light, rushing towards Li Qingming, with Blood Qi reaching the sky and the Omn sound like a celebratory chime of Great Dao.

Shattering the Void, it carried an unparalleled force and fiercely struck towards Li Qingming’s forehead.

“Shh!”

Li Qingming’s eyes blazed, his body surging with a battle intent that seemed ready to burst through the Yun Xiao.

“Hi!”

With a light shout, the Cuizi Bitter Bamboo that had long resided in the Primordial Spirit Sea of Consciousness, for the first time, revealed its splendid brilliance to the Primordial All Living Beings.

The Bitter Bamboo seemed like a towering ancient tree in the Void, swaying without wind.

Li Qingming beckoned gently, and the Bitter Bamboo swiftly shrank, transforming into a purple long spear.

The spear, about nine feet long, had an austere and plain shaft engraved with the image of a dense Bitter Bamboo, quite inconspicuous from a distance.

Li Qingming held the long spear, and Yuqing True Essence gushed out of him like a spring, as his figure, swift as lightning, met Zhunti’s Buddha Mother Golden Body.

“Buzz!”

A blinding radiance flashed by, Li Qingming thrust his spear forward, and as he brandished it, the spear seemed to possess infinite might.

The sky, clear a moment before, turned into night in the blink of an eye.

In the starry night, endless Star Power, drawn by the spear, slowly formed an eerie layer of Star Illusion around the spear.

The slightly short shaft of the spear began to thicken and lengthen gradually until it turned into a towering pillar, with the sharp purple spear light aimed directly at the Buddha Mother Golden Body.

“Boom!”

The Buddha Mother’s fist fiercely struck the tip of the spear, her body of six feet seemingly swelling up in an instant, forcefully withstanding the spear light.

Li Qingming’s face was solemn as he poured his robust Yuqing True Essence into the spear as if it cost him nothing.

The Purple Bamboo Carving on the spear shaft seemed to come alive, nourished gradually by the infusion of Yuqing True Essence’s endless vitality.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

The Great Powers of Primordial were all watching this heaven-defying battle.

“Boom!”

Streaks of purple light shot out abruptly from Li Qingming’s long spear, each thick as a mountain.

The purple long spear emitted a skyful of spear light, its overflowing radiance riddled the Heavenly Vault with countless holes.

The Buddha Mother Golden Body, caught in the storm of attacks, started to retreat step by step.

Zhunti watched this scene in disbelief, never expecting Li Qingming to be so tenacious.

Gritting his teeth in frustration, Zhunti’s Primordial Spirit escaped into the Void, quickly communicating with the rules of Heaven and Earth, and furiously infused boundless nature’s spiritual energy into the Buddha Mother Golden Body.

The Buddha Mother Golden Body, which had just expanded to a hundred zhang, roared furiously and began to surge once again.

In the sky, like a golden giant, she swung her fist that could cover the Cangqiong, and with a fierce push, the purple long spear, along with Li Qingming, was directly knocked flying.

Zhunti, seizing the advantage, did not relent and took out a blood-colored spear from his storage space.

The spear, breathing out red glows, seemed to be entirely forged from blood, emanating vibrations that made one’s soul tremble.

“Clang!”

Zhunti launched a fierce counterattack, hurling the long spear in his hand to the Buddha Mother Golden Body.

The Buddha Mother, wielding the crimson spear that seemed to be bleeding and possessed a living sharpness, flung it straight towards the tumbling Li Qingming.

The entire night sky was dyed blood red.

The ferociously sharp Blood Spear tore across the night sky, its attack unparalleled in its ruthlessness, a single thrust capable of annihilating all things, leaving no room for any maneuver.

“Daoist Brother!” From the depths of the Blood Sea, the eyes of Netherworld River were bloodshot.

He was about to break the Void and block the spear when he suddenly caught sight of a satisfied smile at the corner of Li Qingming’s mouth, which made him cease his action.

Li Qingming’s eyes flickered with azure radiance as he lightly flipped over, stopping his body in midair.

With a forceful strike, spear met spear, sending out fierce lightning that rent the heavens, colliding directly with the blood-colored spear.

“Boom!”

The long spear deflected the Blood Spear off course.

A blood-red Divine Radiance shot out, drawing a beautiful arc, grazing Li Qingming’s left arm as it flew by and crashed into a range of remote mountains miles away.

A swath of majestic peaks was instantly reduced to ruins.

“Boom!”

The long spear leveled the distant mountains, and, with the momentum of swallowing the stars, pierced towards Li Qingming once more.

Li Qingming, already on full alert, swung back with a strike.

The azure spear light in the Void transformed into a ferocious white-browed tiger with a hanging neck, its fierceness unparalleled as it slashed towards the blood-colored spear.

“Roar!”

The tiger’s claws and fangs were sharp, and the Void, already suffering multiple devastations, could no longer withstand the might of the spear and tiger, instantly crumbling into nothingness.

The roughly ten feet long tiger dodged and shifted in the Void, ceaselessly biting and pouncing on the blood-colored long spear.

With each attack, the tiger’s figure faded a bit more, seemingly unable to hold back against the spear’s onslaught.

“Hmph!” Not far away, Li Qingming’s expression flashed with a dark hue.

If things continued like this, he feared his True Essence Power would be drained by the spear, and he needed to deal with it.

With this thought, Li Qingming’s eyes sparkled, his hand swiftly changing spells, as the palm-sized Qiankun Tripod quietly appeared above the blood-colored long spear.
