Chapter 4349: The Thousand Pearl Lake Realm Map
ppened, a sound like the heavens and earth splitting came from afar. A hint of joy flashed across Zi's face. Immediately, he spit out a mouthful of essence. The whirlwind formed by the Bingfeng Lei th...“You all retreat. I’ll take on the Qianzhulongnu myself.” A surge of rage and arrogance rose within the demonic avatar. Against an ordinary opponent, the demonic avatar wouldn't hesitate to use some tricks, but Luocheng was one of the rare individuals who could truly pique the demonic avatar's interest.
The transformed avatar, already fully demonized, has gained a sense of autonomy. However, its feelings towards the main body are still extremely complex and difficult to express. One side of the transformed avatar feels that the main body is not decisive enough in its actions, somewhat indecisive and weighed down by too many concerns. It wants to do things directly, unlike the main body, which needs to think things over repeatedly. The power within the Qingguo barrier could be fully utilized to its limits without having to risk oneself, allowing the numerous beings inside the barrier to benefit.
Although Lu Xia Tian would occasionally use his power within the Qing Guo barrier, the demonized avatar felt that pawns were ultimately just pawns. These pawns, if used well, allowed Lu Xia Tian to achieve more without taking as much risk. If he, the Extreme Cloud Demon Sovereign, were to replace Lu Xia Tian, the demonized avatar believed he could live a better, more comfortable life.
On the other hand, the demonic avatar, every time he thought of his main body's cultivation and the power under his control within the Qingguo Barrier, inexplicably felt a wave of powerlessness in his heart.
As for the level of Taoism, it's secondary. The demonic clone wants to surpass its main body, but it also knows the distance between them is vast. Although the demonic clone thinks there's a huge gap between itself and the main body, it can't bear being looked down upon by others, especially those around Lu Xia Tian. This is an extremely contradictory and complex psychology.
Therefore, faced with Luo Qing's provocation, the demonic avatar's first reaction was to fight. Even though it admitted that there was a huge gap between itself and the main body, for Jiuyun Demon Venerable, its arrogance did not allow anyone other than the main body to surpass itself.
"Swallowing Abyss Sword Technique" Lu Xiaotian saw a pitch-black small sword appear in front of the demonized clone, which inevitably touched upon some of his thoughts. Throughout his travels, Lu Xiaotian had encountered countless enemies, and among those who left the deepest impression on him was Ye Qianxin, who had cultivated the Swallowing Abyss Sword Technique to near perfection.
Although Ye Qianxun's cultivation wasn't too high when she lost to Lu Xia Tian initially, she was one of the people who gave him the greatest sense of pressure. Even her demonic transformation and avatar, the Swallowed Abyss Sword, made her quite formidable. In Lu Xia Tian's projection avatar's eyes, compared to Ye Qianxun back then, she was still a few points short.
Ye Qianxun's physical body was destroyed by Lu Xia Tian. Later, her primordial spirit was taken in by the Qingguo barrier. Because Ye Qianxun was too arrogant and refused to compromise with Lu Xia Tian, she eventually perished under the violent thunder within the Qingguo barrier. Lu Xia Tian did not rescue her, and Ye Qianxun's primordial spirit turned into ashes.
Looking back now, Lu Xia Tian felt a tinge of regret. The mystery of the Qingguo Boundary far exceeded his expectations. Even in the state of Yuanshen, he could advance further within it. The Yuan Shi Jian Mo and other beings in the Yuanshen state were proof. If Ye Qian Xun was still around, perhaps under her deductions, the Swallowing Abyss Sword Technique and the Sword Embryo Path could evolve to another extreme in her hands.
To have not witnessed another peak of kendo with his own eyes was, for Lu XiaTian, a certain regret. After arriving in the Immortal Realm, any resentment he once held towards Ye QianXun had long become insignificant.
"The Swallowing Abyss Sword Technique, Brother Lu had a deep impression of this sword technique," Luo Qing controlled the thousands of pearl shadows to attack the demonized avatar while still being able to converse with Lu Xia Tian in his usual state.
"More than just profound, it's etched into my very bones." Lu Xia Tian smiled. With his keen eyesight, even before Luo Qing and the demonized avatar fully engaged, he could tell the difference in their power. The demonized avatar was far inferior to Luo Qing. If Luo Qing hadn't wanted to leave the demonized avatar for its true self as a way out, this incarnation would have been doomed this time. Last time he projected over, Luo Qing's strength was already remarkable, but this time he truly impressed Lu Xia Tian.
“This can’t be right!” Seeing Lu Qing duel with him, still able to chat and laugh with the projection of his main body, the demonic avatar couldn't help but feel disrespected. As the Qi and energy of the Thousand Pearl Lake Diagram grew increasingly vibrant and powerful, the demonic avatar sensed that this duel might not go as planned. However, even if he was defeated, he had to make the opponent taste his power, so he wouldn't lose face before even starting the fight.
The pitch-black Swallow Abyss Sword continuously attacked Luo Qing. Wherever the flying sword passed, darkness prevailed, like a sword emerging from the abyss. Every amber water bead in the void shattered upon contact with it.
The three-foot flying sword, entirely black, seemed slow but was unyielding in its charge towards Lu Qing.
As it neared Luòqīng, the surrounding blackness of the Swallowed Abyss Sword grew fainter and more translucent, constantly being eroded by the transparent, light mist.
And the speed of the Swallowing Abyss Sword was also getting slower and slower. At this time, the demonic avatar's face changed drastically. The Thousand Pearl Lake Diagram actually had such power! What shocked it even more was that until now, the demonic avatar still couldn't see through the mysteries within the diagram.
Luo Qing also had the intention of giving the demonized avatar a fright, so that it would not dare to easily target Lu Xiaotian's projection avatars in the future. Thus, he did not intend for the Doufa process to last too long.
Since the Swallow Abyss Sword pierced into the myriad amber beads, wisps of water vapor emanated from within. From the outside, it resembled a world shrouded in amber haze. These water vapor possessed astonishing absorptive power. Even though the Swallow Abyss Sword continuously emitted sharp sword intent, once it came into contact with the water vapor, it would be slowed and gradually dissolved within it.
As the water vapor in the void grew, Swallowing Abyss Sword's sensing around it gradually weakened. The demonized avatar couldn't help but be startled. This Thousand Pearls Lake map could actually weaken his control over the flying sword.
At this moment, as the demonized avatar attempted to change its divine powers, countless water droplets flew into the air and converged, forming several giant dragons that attacked the demonized avatar. The demonized avatar recognized Luo Qing's formidable skills and naturally didn't want to be hit easily. However, the light emanating from the amber orb was like steam, possessing astonishing suction force. Even though the demonized avatar tried to escape, its speed couldn't increase.
Several water dragons surged forward, and even the demonized avatar struggled desperately to resist, yet it couldn't change the fact that the water dragons were getting closer. As these water dragons moved, they resembled both dragons and swords, with a detached yet spirited sword intent invading everywhere. The struggling demonized avatar was bound by the massive water dragons, its space shrinking, leaving less and less room to maneuver.
The demonic avatar roared and swung out several sword shadows, shattering the giant water dragons. However, although the water dragons were shattered, they reformed into droplets of water that gradually lengthened to form countless small swords. They surged forward relentlessly, with varying numbers of droplets occasionally merging into flying swords of different sizes. Finally, one flying sword sliced towards the demonic avatar's head, stopping just an inch away.
