The Immortal Seeker: Legend of Bronze Mirror-Chapter 457 - 199: How Can One Be Invincible? (Please Subscribe)

Dark clouds press down upon Dragon Tiger Mountain.

Elephant Trunk Cliff, like a long dragon, and the Old Heavenly Master stands with hands clasped behind his back.

To Xu Qing, the Old Heavenly Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain no longer appeared sloppy but truly possessed the aura of a celestial being.

"Gongming, when I was young, the Black Mountain Demon was already the number one devil in the world. Today, I can finally witness the opponent’s tactics and verify my many years of achievements. This is indeed a cause for celebration."

Xu Qing keenly grasped that at this moment, the old Daoist had entirely shed the burdens of the Dragon Tiger Mountain Tianshi Mansion and entered a state of mind that disregarded gains and losses.

This was the true nature of the old Daoist.

Xu Qing was suddenly enlightened.

"With the old Daoist’s proficiency in the Five Thunders Skill, plus the geographical advantage of Dragon Tiger Mountain, he alone could actually contend with the Black Mountain Demon’s Three Corpses Primordial Spirit, or even repel the opponent. The reason for inviting Xiong Chan to help is firstly due to the matter of the Xuantian Ascending Dragon Pill, and secondly to guard against any unexpected situations."

Xu Qing felt the old Daoist’s caution.

These old foxes, not a single one is careless.

But to live so long, it’s impossible without caution.

As for prestige and all that, can it be eaten?

If there really was prestige, they wouldn’t have bowed their heads in submission to the Court.

People in this world must recognize that the wise adapt to the times!

Of course, there truly are existence filled to the brim with prestige.

Before Xu Qing’s eyes, the dark clouds rapidly swelled and spread, waves of fury churned, covering the sky and blocking the sun.

"Zhang Xiaodao, with your trifling Dao Skill, you dare to interfere in my grudge with Xuantian Dragon Ascension Path, violating my taboo. Now, it’s time to use your Dragon Tiger Mountain to sacrifice to my Primordial Spirit," an extremely harsh voice drifted out through the dark clouds.

Xu Qing immediately felt a needle-like sensation on his Divine Soul.

"What a formidable demon art," Xu Qing marveled inwardly, the Golden Light Spell running subconsciously, radiating golden light all over his body.

There was surprise within the dark clouds, "So that’s how it is."

At that moment, the Old Heavenly Master radiated a golden light more than ten times stronger than Xu Qing’s, an overwhelming presence fully revealed.

This Old Heavenly Master, with nearly a hundred years of cultivation, was finally completely manifested at the Elephant Trunk Cliff of Dragon Tiger Mountain.

Xu Qing, comparing his own Golden Light Spell, deeply realized the gap between himself and the old Daoist.

Indeed, the old Daoist was not someone that an ordinary Ghost Immortal could compare to.

If the old Daoist had this level of cultivation during the calamitous times a hundred years ago, he would have likely passed several Heavenly Tribulations by now.

For cultivators, being born in the wrong time is also an extremely tragic affair.

"Black Mountain fiend, you strut outside the border, but dare to come to the ancestral home of Dragon Tiger Mountain’s Daoist lineage and run wild. You truly don’t take the Daoist lineage of Central Earth seriously. Today I will eliminate your Three Corpses Primordial Spirit, and on a later day, I will surely venture beyond the border and strike your true form into Jiu You, so you will never rise again!" The Old Heavenly Master sneered, uttering harsh words.

He knew the style of the Black Mountain Demon well; once an enemy, if given the opportunity, he would grind the opponent into dust, leaving no chances.

Since that’s the case, there’s naturally no room for reconciliation.

Knowing the disposition of the Black Mountain Demon, the Old Heavenly Master had made full preparations, disregarding personal honor and disgrace, even inviting the high monk Xiong Chan from the Buddhist Zen to assist.

The most critical thing is, he understood that the old emperor was wary of the Heavenly Master Mansion. If he revealed too much strength, he would inevitably bear unnecessary pressure.

Moreover, by inviting the Abbott of the Great Zen Temple to help, it was undoubtedly also signaling to the Court, warning not to push Dragon Tiger Mountain too far, or it wouldn’t end well for anyone.

All his calculations were for the future of the Heavenly Master Mansion.

In the Great Yu Dynasty, it’s indeed rare to see someone who stands out and lasts.

However, when the Black Mountain Demon truly came to attack, the old Daoist had completely forgotten all plans, retaining only his original heart.

If you want to fight, then let’s fight!

The Court still remembers Zhang Lata cleansing the lands of demons, but forgets that Dragon Tiger Mountain has the duty of demon extermination and protecting the Dao from generation to generation.

Powerful golden light lifted the old Daoist, his Taoist robe bulging around him.

It wasn’t filled with flowing air, but rather his muscles bulged out, bones full and robust, stretching the robe to its limits. Moreover, the trembling force of his muscles actually burst the upper part of his Taoist robe, revealing his explosive muscles.

A sight that was extremely shocking.

And right on the old Daoist’s chest, a Tai Chi Diagram appeared vividly.

Xu Qing saw this diagram and immediately understood that this was the hereditary Heavenly Master’s Degree of Dragon Tiger Mountain, a thing of profound mystery, both a Magic Artifact and not a Magic Artifact, profoundly mysterious.

In this moment, the old Daoist communicated with the Heavenly Master’s Degree, entering an unfathomably deep realm, his formidable power receded like an abyss.

In the dark clouds, a slender devilish figure appeared, pointing a finger.

The dark clouds cascaded like the Milky Way, tumbling down and enveloping the entire Elephant Trunk Cliff.

"How audacious!" the old Daoist rebuked in a loud voice.

At some point, Elephant Trunk Cliff had gathered the energy of Dragon Tiger Mountain, unleashing terrifying flames that scorched the dark clouds. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Xu Qing knew that what he saw was an illusion of Dao Skill clash, yet his body felt the scorching heat of the flames.

He understood all too well that any ordinary person under such heat would undoubtedly burn to death, and even a postmortem examination would reveal symptoms identical to those of a burning death.

This is the profoundness of Divine Skills, turning the false into the true, where one cannot distinguish between reality and illusion.

Before long, the old Daoist charged into the dark clouds, his body radiating golden light.

Xu Qing felt the weather turn unbearably cold one moment, and searingly hot the next.

Before Elephant Trunk Cliff, there even emerged the strange phenomenon of cold and extreme heat alternating ceaselessly.

And the dark clouds rolled more fiercely than ever.

Xu Qing observed the Qi Fortune Little Snake, which was gradually dissipating the black aura.

He could tell that all the vital energies of Dragon Tiger Mountain were converging into the dark clouds.

Using Heavenly Repairing Tribulation Hand, Xu Qing continuously sensed the changes in the vital energies, searching for the most opportune moment to make his move.

At the same time, he felt a surge of Qi-Blood rising slowly from beneath the mountain, as immense as the Vast Sun.

"Xiong Chan, the Abbott of the Great Zen Temple."

A name surfaced in Xu Qing’s mind.

"The Great Sun Tathagata Sutra from the Great Zen Temple? Are you the disciple of that little monk from the Void?" The Old Demon spoke suddenly from within the black clouds.

"Old Demon, the karma from your forceful intrusion into the Great Zen Temple years ago shall be settled today," Xiong Chan’s bold voice sounded.

The Black Mountain Demon casually said, "Good timing, I’ll deal with all of you together."

"Old Demon, your opponent is me." A burst of golden light suddenly enveloped the black clouds, while the sound of thunder rolled on ceaselessly.

At that moment, a gigantic Buddha phantom interwoven with golden radiance rose into the void and struck a palm towards the black clouds wrapped in golden light.

"Seeking death!" A white vapor suddenly split from within the black clouds, slashing towards the Buddha phantom like a white rainbow.

White Rainbow Through the Sun!

Xu Qing knew this was what the Old Taoist mentioned—the Three Corpses Primordial Spirit. Besides the main body of the Black Mountain Demon, he had three primordial spirits with vast divine skills, no less formidable than the current pinnacle figures.

This primordial spirit, transformed into white vapor, was aimed at shattering Xiong Chan’s Great Sun Tathagata Scripture.

The void resounded with grand Buddhist chanting.

The white rainbow pierced through the Buddha’s palm.

Just at this moment, a deafening roar of golden light obliterated the black clouds.

And the Buddha’s palm astonishingly seized the white rainbow.

Every calamity seemed to have dissolved.

He looked up.

Suddenly, hundreds of Vigorous Blades condensed from cold streams and killing winds appeared in the void, freezing time itself, it seemed.

Both the Old Heavenly Master and Xiong Chan simultaneously expressed their surprise.

However, both the Buddha’s phantom and the golden light were a step too late compared to the hundreds of Xuanyin Gangsha blades that had formed.

The hundreds of Vigorous Blades slashed towards Xu Qing’s physical body almost at the same time.

Xu Qing’s body became covered in golden light, which upon contact with the Xuanyin Gangsha, felt like a basin of fire covered by a mound of snow and ice.

His sense of imminent danger reached its pinnacle.

And his Divine Thought also became as clear as it could be.

In the state of Absolute Focus, Xu Qing was undisturbed by any feelings of shock or fear, his thoughts incredibly calm and steady.

Living Dead!

In an instant, Xu Qing’s entire Qi-Blood condensed into a mass, the ultimate concentration, the ultimate explosion.

At this moment, his body became an Ice Fire Battlefield.

His limbs and all his bones were completely taken over by the Xuanyin Gangsha, and the only bit of warmth resided in the Dantian below, where a full and rounded mass of Qi-Blood lay.

In the eyes of the Old Heavenly Master and Xiong Chan, Xu Qing turned into a cold and gloomy ice sculpture in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, a stream of black air had already soared into the sky, nowhere to be seen.

"This is the Black Mountain Demon’s Two as One Divine Skill, a strike his main body carried out across space. The Three Corpses Primordial Spirit is just a decoy," said the Old Heavenly Master, his face growing cold.

Although the Black Mountain Demon’s Three Corpses Primordial Spirit had already been severely damaged by his Five Thunders Skill, what meaning would there be if Xu Qing were to be lost?

He already had a premonition that the Black Mountain Demon’s main body would soon heal from the injuries it had sustained a hundred years ago. Once chaos erupts in the world, there would no longer be another Zhang Lata to restrain the opponent.

And the only potential nemesis of the Old Demon could be the Xu Gongming before them.

This was also the reason why the opponent’s main body, although not fully recovered, forcibly executed the Two as One Divine Skill, even using the Three Corpses Primordial Spirit as a cover, to secure an excellent opportunity for this strike.

"Senior, start the Alchemy," Xu Qing’s Divine Thought suddenly came through just as the Old Heavenly Master looked perplexed.

"You’re alright?" The Old Heavenly Master was extremely surprised.

"I’m fine for now, but if you act too late, that may not be the case," Xu Qing’s Divine Thought transmitted back with a wry smile.

He had "observed" the Qi Fortune Little Snake within his body, which actually hadn’t reached a life-threatening level, but it was no problem to sound a bit more serious at this time.

The Xuanyin Gangsha Saber’s most formidable aspect is that it strikes both the Divine Soul and the physical body simultaneously, especially with the Xuanyin Power that can freeze the Divine Soul, rendering one’s thoughts immovable, naturally preventing the circulation of Qi-Blood and warding off the invading Gangsha from the body.

But what even the Black Mountain Demon hadn’t expected was that Xu Qing possessed the Purple Emperor Dragon Armor—the world’s top skill for protecting the Divine Soul.

The adversary’s Gangsha had indeed invaded Xu Qing’s physical body, but the Xuanyin Power could not harm Xu Qing’s Divine Soul, cutting its lethality by more than half.

However, it was fortunate that he had come to Dragon Tiger Mountain, otherwise he wouldn’t have been able to handle even the Three Corpses Primordial Spirit.

As for the Xuanyin Gangsha Saber, it was a blow struck from afar, and naturally, its power was greatly reduced. Otherwise, Xu Qing’s physical body would likely have suffered indelible damage.

Seeing this, Xiong Chan immediately said, "Then let’s refine the elixir on Dragon Tiger Mountain."

As long as the creation of the Xuantian Ascending Dragon Pill was not delayed, it would be a fortunate outcome amidst misfortune.

Xu Qing echoed in agreement, continuing, "After our breakthrough, let’s see how the Black Mountain Demon claims to be invincible."

The most dangerous day of his life was today.

Once he found the opportunity, he would definitely gather the top masters of the Central Earth Taoist and Buddhist communities as well as the Luo Sect to head beyond the border, letting the Old Demon know what is meant by all the people condemning the demonic and evil path.
