Urban Martial Saint

The Immortal Lord was extremely angry. In his view, Fu Qingping and the other two were like meat on the chopping block, ready to be slaughtered at his whim. He never expected Fu Qingping to desperately block him, allowing the Wolf Monk to escape with Huangfu Ziyu.

Outside this Doomsday Sect, there were complex mountains and towering ancient trees. Once out of this canyon, given the Wolf Monk’s speed, even the Immortal Lord would find it difficult to track him down. Not only did two people escape, but the Sun Shooting Bow was also lost. The Immortal Lord’s anger was understandable.

”How dare you ruin my plans! If I let you die comfortably, I swear I’m no human!” the Immortal Lord roared angrily at Fu Qingping.

Fu Qingping slowly supported himself on the nearby rock and stood up. He managed to temporarily suppress the surging blood and energy in his chest, but the internal injuries from that palm strike were severe. The Immortal Lord’s strike was not something someone at top-level strength could withstand. If not for Fu Qingping’s rapidly accelerated progress due to the Buddha’s Relic from Ye Qing, that single strike would have been enough to render him completely powerless.

Actually, with Fu Qingping’s strength, even though he was far from being the Immortal Lord’s match, he could still endure dozens of moves under him. However, Fu Qingping gave his all to block the Immortal Lord, engaging him in a direct confrontation, which prevented him from utilizing his swordsmanship and speed, turning it into a pure power struggle with the Immortal Lord. The gap in their stages was evident, and the difference in power was naturally significant, leading to Fu Qingping’s disadvantage. If he truly wanted to distance himself and face the Immortal Lord without distractions, the Immortal Lord would need at least thirty moves to defeat him!

Still, Fu Qingping knew well that encountering the Immortal Lord here meant they all couldn’t possibly leave alive. Thus, he let the Wolf Monk and Huangfu Ziyu leave first, preparing to stay and use his life as a sacrifice to stop these people and protect Huangfu Ziyu and the Wolf Monk!

Fu Qingping wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked coldly at the Immortal Lord, and said in a deep voice, ”Immortal Lord, do you dare take another sword from me?!”

”Hahaha...” The Immortal Lord laughed heartily and said, ”Don’t you find it ridiculous to ask that? Not to mention taking one sword from you, even if you strike a thousand swords, would you be able to harm a single hair of mine?”

Fu Qingping clenched his teeth and said nothing. Holding the Qingping Sword, he stepped towards the Immortal Lord one step at a time. He stared at the Immortal Lord for a moment, slowly calmed his breathing, and then gradually raised the Qingping Sword in his hand. After a glance at the Immortal Lord, he suddenly swung the sword horizontally, slashing towards the Immortal Lord.

Seeing Fu Qingping preparing for so long, the Immortal Lord thought he had some astonishingly ground-breaking move, but it turned out to be just a simple slash. Seeing this move, he couldn’t help but laugh, taking a casual step to dodge the sword.

”Is this your sword? Really...” The Immortal Lord was about to ridicule, but halfway through his words, Fu Qingping’s longsword suddenly changed. The original longsword transformed into a streak of Qing Mang, sweeping over like a torrent towards him.

This Qing Mang, the Immortal Lord had seen earlier, but this time he dared not attempt to block it with a wave of his hand, as this Qing Mang was not Sword Qi but an actual longsword. So, he stepped aside, intending to avoid the sword. Yet, before he could even take a step, the Qing Mang transformed. It was as if the Qing Mang turned into a sun, instantly shooting out countless beams of light, overwhelming the Immortal Lord. Each light spot carried formidable power that one would not underestimate!

”Oh?” The Immortal Lord lightly exclaimed. He could see that these light spots were not sword qi but the Qingping Sword breaking into countless little swords instantly. And those light spots were these small swords. In other words, these countless light spots were not formed by power, but were tangible; meaning he couldn’t sweep them away with power.

The Immortal Lord was incredibly powerful, yet he had never witnessed such a peculiar move. He understood well that this unique move required cooperation with the Qingping Sword. Without this sword capable of instantly transforming into countless small swords, this move couldn’t be executed. However, with this move executed, its power was extraordinarily terrifying. Even the Immortal Lord had to become somewhat serious when confronted with it.

Seeing the countless light spots sweeping in, just like sunlight illuminating everything, even if the Immortal Lord was fast, avoiding them was impossible. The Immortal Lord simply ceased dodging, shouted loudly, and his black robe rose without wind. True Qi emitted from within, forming a Qi Shield around him, using it to block the thousands of small swords. The thousands of small swords all rushed over but were blocked outside by the Qi Shield, unable to harm the Immortal Lord at all. It was as if the Immortal Lord was covered by a huge bell, and the small swords could only strike the bell’s exterior, naturally unable to harm anyone inside.

Fu Qingping watched from the side, seeing the Immortal Lord use this move with a bright gaze. He looked up and howled, ”Is this what you call transcending the peak power?”

”That’s right, this is power beyond the peak!” The Immortal Lord replied smugly. The Qi Shield formed by True Qi blocked Fu Qingping’s strike, leaving him completely unharmed. Naturally, he felt quite proud of himself. He looked at Fu Qingping but did not immediately strike him down. Instead, he sneered, ”Well, do you have any ultimate moves left? Show me, let me see!”

Fu Qingping didn’t answer the Immortal Lord; instead, he lowered his head and pondered for a long time. His current level had almost reached the Peak of Absolute Peak. Due to the Buddha’s Relic, his strength could be enhanced, but he was still a bit short of surpassing the peak. Therefore, he would seize opportunities to duel with others, attempting breakthroughs in battle. The previous showdown with Nalan Jingwei and the other three was intended to break through himself. However, their skills were insufficient for him to achieve a breakthrough. This time, the battle with the Immortal Lord brought him great insights.

Seeing Fu Qingping silent, the Immortal Lord was slightly surprised and asked curiously, ”Hey, why aren’t you speaking? What’s wrong? Are you out of tricks? If you don’t make a move, then I’ll make the first move!”

Fu Qingping slowly lifted his gaze and glanced at the Immortal Lord. Although the power displayed by the Immortal Lord to block his move gave Fu Qingping significant insight, surpassing the peak was no easy task. Even after such a lengthy contemplation, he was still unable to break through, but in his heart, he had created a new swordsmanship move!

”Immortal Lord, you wish to see my ultimate move, so I’ll let you truly witness it!” Fu Qingping said softly, taking a deep breath before suddenly tossing the Qingping Sword into the air and shouting, ”Sword Slash the World!”

Upon hearing this, Wanyan Hongsheng, who was observing from afar, had a change in expression. He was a contemporary of Fu Qingping and naturally knew that this Sword Slash the World was Fu Qingping’s most powerful ultimate move.

Fu Qingping’s earlier sudden emergence of Qingping Sword had already astonished the Wanyan family, and his move against the Immortal Lord just now shook them even more. They knew full well that if they were to face it themselves, they definitely couldn’t withstand it and would be severely injured again.

However, those moves earlier weren’t Fu Qingping’s most formidable ultimate move. Now, with Fu Qingping finally using this Sword Slash the World, the Wanyan family could only imagine the shock they felt inside.

As Fu Qingping tossed the Qingping Sword into the air, the Wanyan family quickly retreated further back, not daring to stay too close to the battlefield, fearing collateral damage. Yet, they didn’t want to miss this spectacular duel, so they watched from afar, eager to see the true power of Fu Qingping’s Sword Slash the World!

Though the Immortal Lord didn’t know this Sword Slash the World was Fu Qingping’s ultimate move, seeing the Wanyan family’s reaction made him aware of the situation. He laughed loudly, ”Good, I want to see what kind of might your Sword Slash the World possesses. Just don’t disappoint me!”

Fu Qingping said nothing, and after throwing the longsword, he clasped his hands together, channeling his power to control the Qingping Sword.

Just like the previous move, the Qingping Sword in the air split into thousands of small swords, all slashing towards the Immortal Lord. Each small sword carried immense power that Wanyan Hongsheng and the others felt they couldn’t possibly withstand. But for the Immortal Lord, these small swords posed no threat. He effortlessly used the Qi Shield to block them with ease.

”If this is all you’ve got, then there’s really nothing much to it!” the Immortal Lord said coldly. ”Your level of skill is quite disappointing to me!”

Fu Qingping remained silent. As the small swords bounced back after colliding with the Immortal Lord’s Qi Shield, he suddenly leaped up and landed on a nearby rock. The mountain wind blew fiercely, making his long robe flutter, and his white hair and beard danced in the wind, giving him a somewhat celestial appearance. His hands turned into Sword Fingers, slowly gathering together. Following his motion, all the flying small swords also converged. However, they didn’t reform into the Qingping Sword but instead hovered in the air, maintaining some distance between them. This way, the small swords converged into a giant sword about thirty feet long. The entire giant sword flickered with a green glow, formed by Fu Qingping injecting his powerful energy into connecting these small swords together, creating this giant sword.

Fu Qingping stood proudly on the rock. Seeing the giant sword form, he immediately waved his hand. The giant sword tore through the sky, heading directly for the Immortal Lord’s head, descending from above like a heavenly thunder, slashing down at the Immortal Lord!
