Chapter 2168 - The Accomplished Sword Technique

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

At this moment, Qingfeng Li was focusing on practicing the Yin-Yang Phantom Sword.

He didn't know the Vast Sky Saint Son and the Linglong Saintess were betting on him, and the Linglong Saintess still believed he was alive.

The Blood Sea Saint, the Clear-Wood Saintess, and Yun Lan were all very worried about Qingfeng Li.

But Black Puppy didn't worry at all. It had been with Qingfeng Li so long and knew Qingfeng Li would absolutely turn this over.

The lake provided a great shelter and an opportunity to practice for Qingfeng Li. Other self-cultivators couldn't notice what happened in the lake.

If it were a normal lake, Qingfeng Li would soon be discovered by others. But it was the Thunder Lake, with a large amount of thunder and beasts inside.

Other self-cultivators would never think Qingfeng Li could be this powerful, to practice techniques among all the thunder beasts in the Thunder Lake.

Qingfeng Li had the Thunder Pearl with him, and that was why he could absorb the thunder.

Qingfeng Li wasn't only practicing the Yin-Yang Phantom Sword; he was also increasing the thunder energy inside him, forging his skin, muscle, and bones, and making his body strength more powerful.

His body was evolving, and his mana energy turned purer.

He felt his strength was increasing, with unlimited power like an ocean.

Qingfeng Li wielded his long sword faster with unstoppable force, and the lake water rolled more fiercely.

Crack, crack…

The lake water split apart, raising waves of millions of feet high, rushing toward the sky.

The Nine-headed Golden Lion was laughing and recruiting his minions when he suddenly saw the lake water splitting apart. He was shocked with surprise.

He realized it was the spot he hit Qingfeng Li to. Why did the water split from that spot? Could Qingfeng Li be still alive?

The Nine-headed Golden Lion shook his head and said to himself, "Impossible. Golden Saint Hammer had crushed his chest. He was injured so severely and sank in the lake full of thunder and beasts. Even if I hadn't killed him, he would die from the lightning strikes. Even I can't stand that long in the lake."

Other self-cultivators were also shocked and started discussing. They didn't understand why the Thunder Lake would suddenly turn furious with the vigorous waves.

The Linglong Saintess's face changed a bit, for she had sensed a strand of Qingfeng Li's aura. After all, she was very powerful as an upper-grade Saintess.

She sensed an obvious energy fluctuation underneath, which was no less powerful than hers.

The Linglong Saintess turned delighted. She knew Qingfeng Li wasn't dead and was practicing in the lake. He had succeeded, and it was the time for him to get revenge.

The Linglong Saintess looked at the Nine-headed Golden Lion complacently, thinking to herself, "If The Nine-headed Golden Lion entered the lake to check on Qingfeng Li's death or destroyed his body, Qingfeng Li would've been in real danger."

But the Nine-headed Golden Lion thought Qingfeng Li had already died in the lake and didn't go down and check, giving Qingfeng Li an opportunity to meditate. Now Qingfeng Li's power had obviously broken through.

The Vast Sky Saint Son turned livid. He realized something too and showed a cold look, saying, "Even this couldn't kill Qingfeng Li? He is truly a monster."

Rumble… Rumble…

The sounds from the lake got louder and louder. It seemed the entire lake was shaking.

Qingfeng Li flew up from the lake right into the sky, over the waves that were millions of feet high, and confronted the Nine-headed Golden Lion.

Qingfeng Li said with arrogance, "Nine-headed Golden Lion, you are too naive to think you could kill me that way. Now I came back. Show me what other skills you have."

Seeing Qingfeng Li flew out of the lake alive, the Blood Sea Saint couldn't control her tears out of excitement, saying, "I knew you would not die. It's so great."

It was hard to put what the Blood Sea Saint felt into words. If Qingfeng Li died here because of saving her, she wouldn't want to live either.

Now seeing Qinfeng Li came back without a scratch, she cried out of happiness, which was completely different from the sad tears before.

The Blood Sea Saint was very excited because of Qingfeng Li. She knew Qingfeng Li was very powerful and could come back alive every time.

When Qingfeng Li was even not a Saint, he could offend and kill the Crimson Fire Emperor. Qingfeng Li was much weaker at that time.

But he was different at this moment. He had reached middle-grade saint and could also fight others beyond his realm.

The Clear-Wood Saintess and Yun Lan were also crying out of happiness.

They were heartbroken when seeing Qingfeng Li fell into the lake. They would of course become thrilled when seeing Qingfeng Li come back alive.

At this moment, the Clear-Wood Saintess wasn't mad at Black Puppy anymore. She turned around and bowed to it respectively, saying, "Thank you for stopping me before. You were right. Qingfeng Li wouldn't die."

Black Puppy raised its head proudly, saying, "Of course. Qingfeng Li is invincible. He would never lose to someone like the Nine-headed Golden Lion. Let's see how Qingfeng Li will kill the Nine-headed Golden Lion."

Black Puppy knew it was the time for Qingfeng Li to strike back. It knew Qingfeng Li would be invincible in the same realm once he accomplished his practice and could even fight across the realm. Even the Crimson Fire Emperor was no match for him, let alone the Nine-headed Golden Lion.

All the surrounding self-cultivators were astonished when Qingfeng Li flew out of the lake. Some were happy; some were disappointed; and some were regretful.

Those who stood behind the Nine-headed Golden Lion all thought Qingfeng Li had died and started buttering the Nine-headed Golden Lion up. Some even decided to be his minions.

Nobody expected Qingfeng Li would come back alive, which faceslapped them.

All of them looked pale with terror. They didn't understand at all why Qingfeng Li could survive after being severely injured and having a hole shot through his chest.

They started quivering and became afraid of Qingfeng Li's revenge, for they realized they had provoked a monster.
