"I have sealed the sword for ten years. I originally planned to take it out after reaching the first-level sword saint realm. At that time, I will wield the sword again in the snowy plains and go to the Demon Lord to explain the principles of this world."
With the Jue Ming Knife in his hand, Cao Xianxian's sword intent surged dozens of times, and the entire airspace of thousands of feet was filled with sword light, sharp and dazzling.
He lowered his head and allowed the strong wind to stir up his official robes. Amidst the sound of the hunting wind, he could hear his cold whisper, "To take the sword in advance today is both a matter of fate and a will of God. Regardless of success or failure in this battle, I will not There will be regrets again. As for the principles of this world, I can only tell you first..."
As soon as he said these words, Cao Xianxian slowly raised his head. The color of his pupils could no longer be seen in his eyes, only a piece of snow-white sword light was deep in it, like the snow that was constantly blowing all year round in the Demon Clan's snowfield, cold, desolate, and indestructible.
Gao Meng finally put away his careless attitude. He stared at the fatal knife in Cao Xianxian's hand. After a long time, he said, "It turns out that you have already stepped into the holy realm with one foot."
"It was already ten years ago."
Cao Xianxian said, "It will be difficult to move forward in ten years. I just lack an opponent like you... I haven't reached the first rank, but I am stronger than the second rank. It is just right."
Gao Meng nodded, "If you and I make a breakthrough in this battle, put the other foot into the first level, and count me in when I go to the snowy field to find the Demon Lord."
"It's a deal!"
Cao Xianxian stretched his left hand forward and made a gesture of invitation, "Welcome to the Heavenly Horse!"
As soon as he said these words, he immediately crossed his sword in front of him. The Jue Ming Saber rose up in the storm and extended from his palm to the clouds at an extremely fast speed. It was a thousand feet away in the blink of an eye.
If viewed from a distance, Cao Xianxian holding the hilt of the sword looked as small as an insignificant black dot, but what he was holding alone was a lifeless sword light as vast as the stars, moon, and galaxy.
A man with a sword stood between the sky and the earth, and a desolate and lonely aura arose, converging with the sword's intention, and the entire airspace was filled in an instant.
Gao Meng stopped talking. He knew that in his human form at this moment, he could no longer be the opponent of Cao Xianxian, who was holding the Jue Ming Dao and had reached the peak of his power.
He suddenly raised his head and looked at the higher sky, and said quietly, "I was born in the southern country two hundred years ago. I am a one-horned white horse. I started as a ninth-grade man. He carries the wood god barrier and has all the magical powers. All of them are lucky... ..."
"The body is thirty feet long, and the footing is like a hill. After every catastrophe, the body of the demon clan will be tempered by thunder and fire, and it will rapidly increase... The year he was promoted to the fourth-level demon king, his body shape has already Reaching nine hundred feet, it was also from that year on that I often entered the world as a human being..."
"Then another thirty years passed, and I was lucky enough to withstand two more catastrophes, and entered the second level... When I was sparring with the Demon King, my true body was revealed, nearly two thousand feet tall, with four wings, covering the sky and the sun. After that battle, I fought all the second-grade invincibles and never transformed into a Pegasus again."
"Now Youyou has taken a step forward from the second-level realm for several years. Although he has not yet experienced the second-level heavenly tribulation, he can feel that his demon body is on the rise again. Now what is his true body? Even I dare not speculate on how big it is. Thinking about it, it should be able to fit into the sky right now, right?"
Having said this, Gao Meng looked at Cao Xianxian again, "Although this battle is an opportunity for you and me, this is the realm of Daxia after all. Since I am an envoy from the Southern Kingdom, I still have to show some etiquette... So I want to follow you again. Please confirm, it was you, General Cao, who asked me to reveal my true form as a monster, not me... Of course, I am not afraid of personal responsibility, but I am afraid of bringing trouble to the Southern Kingdom."
What answered him was boring silence and the light of thousands of swords rising into the sky.
.....
In front of Kunci Palace, Xu Xingmu and Eunuch Jin could no longer look directly at the snow-white light curtain on the horizon.
The light of Cao Xianxian's sword was too bright. Even if it was diluted by Lord Pope's golden light, they could not see the scene among the clouds based on their cultivation.
"Your Holiness, what is the situation now?"
Eunuch Jin couldn't control his temper. Through the body-protecting shield of the Vajra Boy Kung Fu, he could only barely feel the powerful aura of the fatal knife in Cao Xianxian's hand.
He has worked with Cao Xianxian for many years and knows him very well. He knows very well that since the other party has activated the Jue Ming Dao, it is bound to be a desperate time.
He was a little worried. Cao Xianxian, a half-step first-grade man, must not cut off Gao Meng's horse's legs. If this affects the diplomatic relations between the two countries, the entire Ministry of Internal Affairs will suffer!
The pope's voice came quickly, with a hint of solemnity in his deliberate calmness, "See for yourself."
"I can't see it, Lord Pope. That guy Lao Cao is crazy. A broken knife is so sharp that it hurts our eyes just to look at it!"
Eunuch Jin couldn't help but complain.
"No, Eunuch Jin, you can see now...you...look up!"
The person speaking this time was Xu Xingmu.
His voice trembled slightly, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.
Eunuch Jin was stunned for a moment. He first glanced at the Pope and Xu Xingmu, and saw that one of them had a solemn expression, and the other was full of fear. At this moment, they both looked up at the sky above, and their eyes reflected the same extreme whiteness.
At first, he thought that the white snow was the light of Cao Xian's sword, but when he stared at it, he didn't feel any sharpness at all.
Only a profound, vast, ancient aura that seemed to come from a distant and primitive land slowly spread out, covering the entire sky in the blink of an eye.
Eunuch Jin seemed to have thought of something, and there was a hint of caution and uneasiness in his slender eyes.
He swallowed and focused all the defensive properties of the Vajra Boy Kung Fu into his eyes to ensure that he would not be cut by Cao Xianxian's sword light.
Then little by little, slowly, carefully, almost in awe, he raised his head.
Soon, his eyes reflected the same whiteness.
The same look of fear as Xu Xingmu's appeared on his face.
The origin of that snow-white scene was indeed not Cao Xianxian's sword light, but a monster that came from the clouds covered with snow!
It floats quietly in the sky, looking like a huge marshmallow.
The piece of white snow that catches the eye is only a part of its body.
But just this part covers almost the entire Tai'an City.
Its complete body has stretched nearly ten thousand feet and reached the farther horizon.
The four golden hooves were submerged in the dark clouds and could not be seen clearly. However, whenever the cold wind blew, one could vaguely see four glittering palaces standing in the dissipating clouds and mist.
It has four wings on its back, and the red feathers that roar hundreds of feet are filled with golden light, exuding majesty in its coldness.
The single horn in front of his forehead reaches straight into the sky, like the towering star-catching tower in the Imperial City of Daxia.
It just moved its body slowly, and a strong wind surged between the sky and the earth, and in the thick clouds above the sky, there were purple thunders ready to move.
A low roar echoed throughout Tai'an City.
Countless powerful men from Daxia Dynasty appeared one after another, looking at the snow-white monster in the sky from a distance. They looked up in fear for a long time, but few of them could muster the courage to fly high into the sky to find out.
Only a few mysterious figures deep in the imperial city saw the monster rampant and were about to go to the sky, but they were dissuaded by the golden light curse of the Pope in mid-air.
The people thought it was divine punishment and were even more frightened. They hid in their houses crying and did not dare to come out again.
The green bull, the mythical beast of Longhu Mountain, suddenly raised its head, its sparkling bull eyes fixed on the huge figure among the clouds. It snorted heavily and started on all fours, as if ready to go. There will be a meeting with the monster in the sky. The old Tianshi who was basking in the sun at the Tianshi Mansion smiled and came over and pressed its head, warning it not to meddle in its own business.
In the Pilgrimage Building, the residence of the envoy from the Southern Kingdom, Bai Ningyue, who had just returned, frowned coldly, glanced at the sky through the window, and muttered with some dissatisfaction, "What's the matter with Uncle Gao? He's restless wherever he goes. After leaving the Southern Kingdom, he was still thinking about fighting all day long... But then again, who in Tai'an City can force him to reveal his true form as Pegasus? Could it be that the Pope has taken action?"
...
Eunuch Jin was completely dumbfounded.
It turns out that Gao Meng was not bragging. His body was really big.
No! This can no longer be described as big, but vast!
The demon race is a half-saint, and the Pegasus is Gao Meng. Its true form is a city.
At this time, Cao Xianxian, who was as small as gravel, was holding a life-threatening knife at the other end of the city.
His figure was tightly covered by Gao Meng. No matter how hard he tried, as long as he was still in this airspace, it was impossible to get rid of the opponent's demonic appearance.
Naturally, those who were watching the battle in Tai'an City could not see him.
However, the fatal sword light that he spent his whole life blooming could stretch thousands of feet, and no matter how huge Gao Meng's body was, he could not completely cover it up.
The Pegasus neighed, suddenly twisted in the sky, and rolled up countless wind and thunder.
The huge eyes were indifferent and fearless. They stared closely at the man in the red official robe at the origin of the sword light. Even when facing the mountains of Dharma, his face remained expressionless and he just kept waving the sword.
A green light suddenly appeared on the edge of the huge horn, like a fire starting a prairie fire, and it flew towards the entire sky under the flapping of four pairs of red-blooded golden wings.
In an instant, from south to north, from east to west, every inch of the sky above Tai'an City was instantly illuminated by blue light.
The demon clan's wooden magic, with the blessing of Tianma's true form, showed unprecedented oppressive power.
Cao Xianxian's sword-swinging movement suddenly stopped, and his body became extremely sluggish, and he began to be unable to move within the realm of the Wood God's barrier.
The originally arrogant and deadly sword light seemed to gradually become dim, but its power still remained.
Tianma snorted, and tens of thousands of thunders fell down one after another like heavy rain. They broke into the space half a foot in front of Cao Xianxian forcefully and resolutely, but were quickly stopped by his awe-inspiring and clear sword energy.
No matter how loudly he roared, he still couldn't move Cao Xianxian even a little bit.
The auras of one person and one demon have reached their peak at this moment, and the vast difference in body size does not bring a clear direction to the outcome of this battle.
So much so that even the Pope, who was already a first-class land god, could not accurately point out who would be the final winner.
He was just a little surprised, and a little worried... He didn't expect that Cao Xianxian, who was holding the Jue Ming Dao, and Gao Meng, who showed his true form as a demon, were only one step away from reaching the first level.
Today's battle became the perfect opportunity for them to break through.
Perhaps soon, the names of a new land god will be engraved in the history books of the human race and the demon race.
Gao Meng doesn't care about it for now. After all, he is a semi-saint of the demon race. Even if he logs into the realm of all-saints, it is none of the Pope's business.
It's just that Cao Xianxian was disrespectful to the Pope, and his first-level cultivation was the only excuse the Pope could use to suppress him.
If this person also steps into the first rank, I am afraid that the Pope will no longer have the slightest restraint on him in the court.
This is not a good thing.
The Pope in front of Kunci Palace frowned slightly. He knew that he had to do something.
The battle in the sky is not about life and death, nor is it about winning or losing, it is just about fighting for enlightenment.
The Pope refused to let them realize it.
The golden thread between his brows suddenly opened his eyes, and a ray of golden light rose with the wind and went straight into the sky. It contained a trace of evil thoughts left over from the pope's enlightenment in life and death over the years, and quietly blended into Gao Meng's wood god barrier. middle.
At that moment, Gao Meng, the Pegasus who was confronting Cao Xianxian with a fierce fighting spirit in his heart but no murderous intention, suddenly felt a trace of confusion in his huge pupils.
It was silent for a while, and when it looked at Cao Xianxian and the fatal knife again, an unspeakable murderous aura and wildness burst out from the demon clan's appearance.
Under the cyan light curtain of the Wood God's barrier, the golden light of the Pope has penetrated. Gao Meng's eyes gradually turned red, as if he had lost his mind in a moment, and he desperately raised the two golden hooves of his front feet, as if holding them. The complete Kunci Palace stepped towards Cao Xianxian, who was bound by the barrier.
"Um?"
Cao Xianxian, who was using the power of the demon clan to sharpen his sword intention, frowned slightly. Apparently he didn't expect that Gao Meng, who was fine just now, would suddenly kill him.
He wanted to pull away and retreat temporarily, but the wood god's barrier suddenly exerted force, making it impossible for him to move at all.
He could only cross his arms hastily and withstand the blow with his strong and half-step first-level physique.
"Brother Gao Meng, why is this so?"
Cao Xianxian suppressed his anger and asked loudly.
However, Gao Meng had already lost his mind and ignored it at all. Purple thunder roared in the corner, and he rushed over again with boundless killing intent.
An ancient power instantly merged into the Wood God's barrier, trapping Cao Xianxian who was struggling to lift his feet again.
In an instant, the unicorn wrapped in the vast purple thunder tore through Cao Xianxian's sword defense with great force, slammed into his chest, and suddenly exerted force a second time, almost completely penetrating his body.
Dujiao retreated slightly, but still didn't stop. Instead, after briefly gaining momentum, he hit hard again.
It was clear that he was going to kill him.
Even Cao Xianxian's nearly peak tyrannical physique could not withstand such an offensive and killing intent.
His face was pale and his expression was solemn. The penetrating wound on his chest was shocking, and his red official robe had already been soaked in blood.
But he remained silent, only his brows trembled. The moment his body was completely defeated by the horn, he quickly raised his head, his face full of coldness, and his whole body unruly.
After half a breath of silence, he endured the bone-piercing pain in his chest, raised the desperate knife with both hands, exhausted the last bit of desperate knife intention in his body, and quickly bullied himself to Gao Meng's right front hoof, using this as the most powerful weapon in his life. With the spirit of life and death, he fiercely inserted the knife into Gao Mengxuebai's demon body.
The sword light traveled all the way, speeding down Gao Meng's huge demon body, and actually cut open the opponent's entire abdomen.
Cao Xianxian didn't stop, and moved forward. He held the knife in both hands and followed the light of the knife. He once again penetrated the incision in Gao Meng's abdomen and drew out the knife with force, instantly destroying half of the opponent's Qi.
The price he had to bear was Gao Meng's desperate collision.
The next moment, Cao Xianxian was knocked out of the Wood God's barrier by a single horn, and fell into Tai'an City in Daxia like fallen leaves in the autumn wind.
The Jue Ming Dao turned into a white light and fell back into the backyard of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and was buried deep in the ground.
Gao Meng's murderous intent finally melted away at this moment, and the huge demonic body slowly receded. After regaining his human form, he stared blankly at the terrifying knife mark on his right side of the abdomen. He was silent for a while, and shook his head. He seemed to want to say something, but in the end his eyes sank and he fell from the sky.
The pope's brows flashed with golden light, and his whole person suddenly disappeared from the spot.
In just a moment, he appeared in mid-air carrying the dying Cao Xianxian and caught Gao Meng, who was also dying.
He did not turn back to where he was, but went straight to the Star Reaching Tower. In the scattered golden light, the Pope's emotionless whisper came, "Eunuch Jin, please send little friend Xu to the palace to meet the Holy Spirit. I will be there soon." "
