Night Without End-Chapter 336 - 212: The Road Accident

Under the pitch-black night sky, the Fire Spring rippled, and Kunling City seemed draped in a layer of red veil.

"Senior Cao stands on the clouds, overlooking the entire Yewu World. After establishing an unbeaten reputation, even the disciples he accepts astonish the eight wildernesses."

"There’s still a long road ahead, I hope Li can walk it far enough."

Pu Heng and his friend smiled in the tea room as they discussed their junior disciple, because they had just received word that Li Qingxu had "set off".

The Immortal Seed represents the future foundation of the sect.

They need this inheritance in their lineage, capable of continuing the glory created by Cao Qianqiu.

...

In the Secret Realm, two Divine Rainbows spanned across the sky, attracting attention from all directions.

That was the collision of the Demon Seed and the Immortal Seed. No one expected them to duel in such a manner, fighting all the way to the sky, the scene was astonishing.

Some people were quite tense, while others were in anticipation, all looking upward, waiting silently for the "major incident" to occur.

Because, some people foresaw that today there might be a "fall event".

"Niu Ben, our Demon Clan has such a fierce man! It truly boosts our clan’s spirit, elevates our clan’s reputation, and gives us infinite confidence!"

Some demons trembled with excitement, shouting loudly.

They were anticipating that the Demon Seed would knock down the Immortal Seed. Although they couldn’t participate, their spirits were elated, their blood boiling.

In the sky, the collision between the two "seeds" on the Guardian Road was spectacular, splashing down a large amount of flowing light.

One road’s edge was badly shattered, wobbling, about to break!

"The Immortal Road... is unstable!"

Some disciples close to Li Qingxu shrank their pupils, sensing the worst was about to happen.

The crimson road roiled with Demon Energy, also enveloped in Purple Mist, with continuous dragon roars, growing stronger as if to suppress the Secret Realm all the way.

The other road collapsed from the edge, the scattered flowing light rushed toward the opposite Demon Path, truly a seesaw battle.

After several collisions, the Immortal Road’s light loss was severe.

It grew darker, clearly transmitting collapsing sounds, shattering a lot, the road narrowed.

The fragments flew to the opposite side, paving on the Demon Path, expanding it, widening it, making it more solid.

"Is this what road struggle is? Fully materialized!" someone sighed.

Two roads stretched across the sky, in the final confrontation, the Immortal Road shattered extensively, narrowed to less than half its original width, another hit and it would completely break. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Moreover, at this moment, people saw Li Qingxu’s figure, hair disheveled, body falling down.

"The fall event has occurred!" someone shouted.

However, at the last moment, Li Qingxu grabbed onto the remaining road edge with one hand, and climbed back up.

His chest heaved, emotions fluctuating intensely!

He was too unwilling, in this critical road struggle, under the watchful eyes of everyone, he almost fell, unexpectedly defeated by a demon on the Highland.

He was Cao Qianqiu’s disciple, how could he lose?!

A cold voice reminded him, the road ahead requires careful journey and cherishing, as a loser, he still has one chance to challenge the opponent, he must seize it.

Upon hearing the phrase "careful journey and cherishing", Li Qingxu wanted to smash this road with a bamboo stick, feeling an intense sense of humiliation.

At this moment, he was forced away from the golden and jade building, watching helplessly as the incense that helped him Enlightenment and the cushion flew away.

Then, he clenched his teeth until they almost broke, face ashen, because those Divine Objects flew towards the Demon Path, aiding the enemy right in front of him.

In the process of road struggle, he failed, and the "Gift" he was enjoying became the demon’s spoils of war.

This situation made him extremely furious, chest suffocating.

"Li Qingxu was defeated, he fell just now, the road was about to break!"

"Our Fangwai Heaven Pure Land’s Immortal Seed can’t even contend with a Highland Demon Seed, Senior Cao’s face will be humiliated."

In the Secret Realm, a cacophony of discussions erupted, this battle caused an enormous uproar.

"Haha, our Demon Clan is truly Heaven’s favorite race, heroes who can shake Heaven appear in every era, another Great God is about to rise!"

"Quickly send Exotic Birds to report to our Demon Clan’s old seniors deep in the Highland, come to the Secret Realm to support, protect the Demon Seed, don’t get harmed by the old monsters on the Immortal Road."

In this heated discussion, different groups had entirely different mentalities.

But one thing was common: the admiration for strength, winners often bask in glory, losers frequently fall into despair, slandered.

Xin Youdao, Jiang Ruoli, Liu Hanyi, and others were somewhat dazed, knowing clearly who it was, but unable to comment further here.

They felt very shaken, the young companion first destroyed the Demon Seed, then defeated the Immortal Seed, truly achieving one legendary feat after another!

...

Li Qingxu’s blood surged, despite only colliding on the Guardian Road, not truly contacting, the shattered Immortal Road underfoot vividly reflected the battle’s situation.

Shortly after, he calmed his mind, muttering, "Among the Aliens on the Highland, such a Demon Seed emerged, why had I never heard before?"

"If in actual combat, would I be completely crushed by him?" He found this reality hard to accept.

"Not necessarily," a mechanical voice sounded again.

Li Qingxu suddenly raised his head, asked, "How so?"

"This is the result of your ’achievement’ materializing on your respective paths, related to various evaluations you received along the way; actual combat is just one of the factors."

Li Qingxu, upon hearing this, his eyes immediately lit up. The recent collisions hadn’t been many, but he quickly tasted defeat, causing him to doubt himself.

He asked, "Could you specify which factors are included in those evaluations?"

"Actual combat, insight, body foundation, the vision of the Pathfinder, inexpressible Spirit Light of thoughts..."

The more Li Qingxu listened, the darker his face became. He should have never asked, as his discomfort grew.

These factors, except for actual combat, which of them aren’t tied to the future? Are all of those just bonus points for the opponent?

Li Qingxu looked at the broken path beneath his feet, his expression somber as water, and said, "I want to combat him!"

He realized that battling by protecting the path was impossible; if they collided again, the path would certainly shatter. He had no choice but to engage in real bloodshed!

"Sure, he will soon enter the second node, where there’s a combat square, but to protect the path and for those with exceptional talent and ambition for road expansion, it must occur in the same domain."

Li Qingxu nodded, saying, "No issue!"

...

Qin Ming was reflecting, believing he acted impulsively this time.

He originally didn’t want to stir things up, but due to misunderstanding the rules here, he broke Li Qingxu’s statue because he found him displeasing, leading to such a confrontation.

"Hmm?" He was surprised to find the incense burner and cushion flying in from afar.

Soon, he learned of their functions from a cold voice, potentially rivaling the enlightening tea he drank earlier!

The incense was temporarily extinguished but could be relit at any time.

"What kind of existence are you?" Qin Ming asked.

A mechanical voice informed him that here it’s the Heavenly Demon Realm, on the Immortal Road it’s the Immortal Mirror, on the God Road it’s the Divine Mirror; it’s a damaged Exotic Treasure.

Qin Ming’s heart shook, even damaged treasures were already so astounding.

The Heavenly Demon Mirror said, "For ambitious road-expanding descendants, if you exhibit outstanding performance next, there’s an opportunity to fully restore the broken Demon Seed."

It unexpectedly drew such a big picture.

Qin Ming was astonished, having refined two fragmentary Demon Seeds and trained in the "Dragon and Snake Scripture" to tread the Demon Path; he still had three untouched seeds, and they could be restored?

In that case, his not-yet-concluded ninth rebirth and achievements in "Golden Cicada Scripture" and "Immortal Butterfly Scripture" seemed to have promising prospects.

This was truly a delightful surprise!

"What qualifies as outstanding performance?" he asked.

"Break a path." responded the Heavenly Demon Mirror.

Qin Ming felt regretful; the recent confrontation was stopped by the mirror, otherwise, if they had collided once more, Li Qingxu’s path would have broken!

He carefully assessed, recognizing that although Li Qingxu was indeed strong, as long as he stepped into the Outer Saint Domain, he wouldn’t need to avoid this person when met in reality.

Shortly after, Qin Ming entered the Newborn Road, already understanding the plaza node issue, he altered his appearance before stepping in.

Thus, he "bounced" between two paths, progressing rapidly in a bizarre manner.

Li Qingxu decided to retaliate; not long ago, during deep Enlightenment Realm, he comprehended a sect ultimate skill, not only being disturbed by that Demon, but his path nearly broke.

Now, he arrived at a plaza node on the front road, preparing to smash the opponent’s statue materialized here, letting that Demon taste the "interrupted" feeling.

He speculated that after acquiring the incense and cushion, the opponent would surely fall into sudden realization, so it was his turn to strike!

Upon arriving at this plaza, Li Qingxu saw the Demon at first glance, vividly lifelike, wild and vigorous.

He strode forward, expression indifferent, swinging the purple-glowing bamboo stick in his hand, without a word, directly aiming to smash the head of that Demon.

With a thud, the entire plaza shook slightly.

"What’s the situation?" He noticed the statue was unharmed, not even slightly damaged, let alone shattered.

Unbelieving, Li Qingxu glowed all over, the bamboo stick in his hand raised high, then he smashed it down forcefully.

Boom!

Where the bamboo stick passed, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, runes entwining, yet after the statue took this hit, it remained intact.

The Demon’s eye corners and brows expressed arrogance, with a cold smile on the face, seemingly mocking him.

Li Qingxu continuously swung the bamboo stick, yet the statue couldn’t be shattered.

"Why is it like this?!" His face was icy.

The Immortal Mirror informed, "This materialized based on body foundation, insight, path-expanding vision..."

"Enough, arrange actual combat for me!" Li Qingxu smashed the ground with the bamboo stick.

On the Highland, an old Demon learned from an Exotic Bird’s report, of an exceptional Demon Seed emerging in the Secret Realm, strongly suppressing an Immortal Seed, possibly soon breaking an Immortal Road.

"Need our protection? Hmm, no one can interfere with those paths, fine, we can dispatch someone to guard outside the Secret Realm for response."

"Trying to attack this Highland, ha, nice thought, but unfortunately they don’t know how deep the waters are here; ultimately, they might not even know who the prey is!"

...

In Kunling City, Cao Qianqiu’s eldest disciple Pu Heng, was having tea with a friend, informed of the latest news about his junior Li Qingxu.

He composedly took a sip of tea, then with a slight smile, received the letter returned by the Exotic Bird and slowly unfolded it.
