Hearing Qingfeng Li’s declaration, the Sky-Breaking Monarch’s eyes lit up. He had been able to sense that Qingfeng Li’s physical power was formidable. He was no weaker than the Monarch himself in that respect.
The Sky-Breaking Monarch knew that it would be very difficult to kill Qingfeng Li. Even if he did manage to kill him somehow, he wouldn’t too much better off himself. Even if he didn’t die in the fight as well, he would be heavily wounded.
The Sky-Breaking Monarch obviously didn’t want to be wounded. There were many powerful people all over the Crimson Fire Continent who were eyeing his position from the shadows.
If the Sky-Breaking Monarch were to become heavily wounded, these people would no doubt appear to kill him. Then, they would stealhis treasures, his palace, his mountain. That was why the Sky-Breaking Monarch had to maintain a certain level of strength after killing Qingfeng Li.
The Sky-Breaking Monarch stared at Qingfeng Li like he was an idiot. “You’re the one who said it,” he said. “I’ll attack you with my spiritual attack Dharma treasure. And you’re not allowed to retaliate at all.”
Qingfeng Li nodded. “I said I wouldn’t retaliate. And I won’t,” he said. “Hurry up and attack. I’m a man of my word.”
With the force of his will, the Sky-Breaking Monarch brought out a set of bells. There were three of them, all black, and each had a tiny round ball made of Saint level materials enveloped within.
The moment the bells appeared, they sent a series of black ripples through the air, extending outward in all directions. Stones, plants, and everything else in their path was reduced to dust. This was the power of these bells.
Seeing the bells, the Dark Night Emperor, who had been resting within Qingfeng Li, was overcome with shock.
“Little brat,” he voice-transmitted to Qingfeng Li, “these bells are not to be trifled with. They are called the Heavenly Saint Bells, and they have quite the backstory. In the Ancient Ages, they had once belonged to a Saint who specialized in spiritual attacks. I didn’t expect them to have fallen into the hands of the Sky-Breaking Monarch. You must be careful.”
Qingfeng Li’s expression was grim. From the way the Dark Night Emperor spoke, he knew that these Heavenly Saint Bells must have been powerful.
“Sir, can my own spirit energy withstand one blow from them?” Qingfeng Li asked by voice transmission.
Dark Night Emperor shook his head. “Your spirit energy is only at the peak of the Ninth level monarch realm,” he replied. “This Heavenly Saint Bell is a saint level spiritual Dharma treasure. There’s no way you can defend against it. Once it enters your mind-space, it would definitely tear your spirit energy into pieces.”
Qingfeng Li’s expression changed. He knew now that he’d backed himself into a corner. He’d originally though that the opponent would only be able to bring out some regular Imperial level spiritual Dharma treasure. He hadn’t expected to see something of the saint level in the other’s hands.
Qingfeng Li thought for a moment. Ending the transmission with the Dark Night Emperor, he began to communicate with the Black-White Millstone. “Right now,” he told it, “there is a Saint level spiritual Dharma treasure outside. It’s about to attack me. You have to defend against its attack for me from within my mind-space. Otherwise, if my spirit energy perishes, there will be no place for you to hide either.”
Hearing this, the Black-White Millstone gave a little shake, apparently agreeing to Qingfeng Li’s request.
Sensing the Black-White Millstone’s movement, Qingfeng Li’s eyes lit up. He knew that his greatest ally was the Black-White Millstone. As long as it agree to help, he’d be completely alright.
Lifting a hand, Qingfeng Li pointed at the Sky-Breaking Monarch with a haughty expression. “Stop yapping,” he said. “Hurry up and use your Saint level Dharma treasure to attack me. I’ll stand right here, and I definitely won’t move. If I do, I’ll admit defeat.”
The Sky-Breaking Monarch roared in laughter, a hint of killing intent surfacing in his eyes. “Since you’re in such a hurry to die, let me give you a hand!”
The Sky-Breaking Monarch mobilized the spirit energy in his mind-space and poured it into the Heavenly Saint Bells. Then, he suddenly shook the three bells with his right hand. The movement made the metallic balls inside the bells collide with the metal surrounding them, emitting a crisp ringing sound.
Ding, ding, ding…
The three Heavenly Saint Bells emitted wave after wave of piercing peals. The sound was like the enraged howls of an reawakening Ancient Saint.
The moment the sounds rang out, the dimensional barrier exploded before them. Although it was only spiritual energy, it was still more than the void could withstand.
With the power of sonic spirit waves, the Heavenly Saint Bells charged toward Qingfeng Li’s mind-space. Where they passed, they left a string of black holes in the dimensional barrier.
These black holes were a terrible sight to behold. Far away, self-cultivators observing the scene all felt the color drain from their faces. The weakest among them were even forced to howl in agony, blood leaking from their ears, completely unable to withstand the power of the saint level spiritual attack.
Qingfeng Li’s expression was calm. There wasn’t a trace of fear on his face. Rather, he looked toward the Sky-Breaking Monarch with an expression of arrogance and disdain.
Shoo!
With terrifying power, the spiritual energy from the Heavenly Saint Bells entered Qingfeng Li’s mind-space. The powerful spirit energy emitted beams of black light, piercing Qingfeng Li’s own spirit energy in an instant.
Qingfeng Li’s face drained of color as he spat out a spurt of blood. He felt a wave of pain from within as he reached out to the Black-White Millstone deep within his mind-space. “What are you waiting for?” he asked. “Hurry up and come out. If I die, your situation wouldn’t be any better.”
With a whoosh, the Black-White Millstone emerged from the depths of Qingfeng Li’s mind-space and emitted twin beams of black-white light.
With extraordinary speed, the black and white rays of light enveloped the sound waves from the Heavenly Saint Bells. Then, it completely absorbed the attack.
The Heavenly Saint Bells’ sonic waves struggled incessantly, trying to fight back, even trying to escape. However, under the twin beams of light from the Black-White Millstone, there was nothing it could do. Finally, it was reduced to pure spiritual energy, which was partially absorbed by the Black-White Millstone and partially absorbed by Qingfeng Li’s own spirit energy.
Still standing in the same place, Qingfeng Li opened his eyes. A flash of cold light danced within as he glared toward the Sky-Breaking Monarch with a haughty air.
Seeing that Qingfeng Li was completely unharmed, the Sky-Breaking Monarch’s expression changed. “How is this possible?” he said. “My Heavenly Saint Bells is a set of Saint level spiritual Dharma treasures. Their attack is on par with the spiritual attack of a Saint. Why couldn’t it harm you?”
Qingfeng Li laughed. “You think that just because you have a saint level spiritual Dharma treasure, you can defeat me?” he said, voice full of disdain. “Now I’m going to destroy your saint level spiritual Dharma treasure!”
Reaching out to the Black-White Millstone deep within his mind-space, Qingfeng Li bade it appear again. This time, the Black-White Millstone cooperated and flew out from deep within Qingfeng Li’s mind-space without protest.
This was because the Black-White Millstone had clearly sensed the presence of the Heavenly Saint Bells. It knew that this was a Saint level spiritual Dharma treasure, something that it craved. It knew that, after devouring these bells, its own spiritual power would be increased.
Emerging from deep within Qingfeng Li’s mind-space, the Black-White Millstone morphed into twin beams of black and white light. The beams formed the S-shape in the pattern of the Eight Trigrams of Tai Chi. Charging forward with lightning speed, they appeared before the Sky-Breaking Monarch in an instant and enveloped the Heavenly Saint Bells in his hand.
