"It’s coming." Jiu Qing took a deep breath, ready at any moment to be summoned to withstand the Dragon-slaying Sword’s fatal blow!

Jiu Mu anxiously looked at him and quietly asked, "Can I really not help?"

The other party hastily reached out and stopped her from this terrible idea, "Of course not! I am a death warrior bound by a law contract with Daoist Bai, which is a kind of strength means for him, available when needed.

You don’t have any law ties. If you act to save me, it will be considered assisting the Walking Flood Dragon. At that time, not only will the two of us be implicated, but you’d also be struck by divine punishment! At this critical moment, don’t act recklessly!"

"Then be careful yourself." Jiu Mu helplessly pursed her lips.

Beside him, Ling Di consoled, "Rest assured, although I can’t help, I can save. Once he withstands the disaster, the contract will automatically dissolve. At that time, the two of us will join forces to bring him back onto the Immortal Ship. We have the master’s Elixir ready, surely no problem."

Yan Xuan also chimed in, "I think the power of the Dragon-slaying Sword is just like that. You can definitely endure it without any threat to your life."

Then it glanced at the white shadow in the water, mumbling quietly, "Bai Yunqi is also a rather diligent Demon Cultivator in Body Forging. Coupled with the nourishment from eating Flood Dragon Meat, I think he can definitely withstand it with his true form without any harm."

The Dragon-slaying Sword, without being close to the Walking Flood Dragon, can’t really tell how powerful it is.

Some swords that appear tattered and seem to be swept away by the wind can release a fatal blow, cutting off the head with the bone; while some that seem sharp and intimidating are actually just for show to scare Snake Demons and can’t really damage the core, even if penetrating deep into the flesh.

Bai Yunqi sensed the battle intent of the Dragon-slaying Sword under the bridge, and in an instant calculated in his heart—the master of this Dragon-slaying Sword didn’t set a killing strike when deploying it, but primarily aimed to intimidate. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

There are two more whose details are unknown;

Before the Walking Flood Dragon, the Venerable Family specially mentioned to him that they had a Divine Artifact that could help resist the fatal blow in a critical moment; and adding Jiu Qing, he had two guarantees of success in passing the Dragon-slaying Sword.

"This Dragon-slaying Sword, I can withstand it myself." He quickly assessed the pros and cons and reminded Jiu Qing, "Wait a little longer, perhaps when the Dragon-slaying Sword breaks, it’s your turn."

At this moment, just at the start of Walking Flood Dragon, Bai Yunqi is in his best state of energy and physical strength. Even if slightly wounded by the Dragon-slaying Sword, he can quickly recover by swallowing Elixir.

If using a backup just to deal with such a not-so-strong Dragon-slaying Sword, the later stages will become even more difficult.

"Then be careful." Jiu Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but before she could relax, her heart was in suspense again—the next Dragon-slaying Sword’s power is unknown, whether she can survive is a mystery.

This anxious waiting, truly unpleasant!

Everyone’s gaze focused on the stone bridge high between two mountain ranges, and as Bai Yunqi approached, the Dragon-slaying Sword emitted a humming sound, and an array spread out covering the entire bridge.

From afar, this scene was spectacular.

A gigantic and bright array rotated slowly in the storm, waiting for the prey to deliver itself, while the hanging sword, its tip exuding a cold chill gradually spreading throughout the blade—"Hum!"

"Sizzle!"

A giant white snake was hurled by the floodwaters, crashing straight into the array, facing the Dragon-slaying Sword head-on!

The sounds of rain and water couldn’t drown out the noise of the clash between the two.

It was like armor and a long sword meeting on the battlefield, the white snake’s head in the water took the hit directly, causing several white scales to fly off.

Then with a "Puchi", though the long sword didn’t completely pierce the flesh, its tip still broke the snake skin, and in an instant cut a not-so-deep wound from head to tail.

The river water was immediately dyed red, making Jiang Yuan gasp in pain for him.

The Dragon-slaying Sword is specifically used against Snake Demons that walk the Flood Dragon. Even without a killing strike, its power isn’t weak. Bai Yunqi managed to pass under the stone bridge, his wounds aching badly. Fortunately, the Venerable Family had prepared so many Elixirs in advance, swallowing two Blood Replenishing Pills, the wound from head to tail gradually healed under the combined power of the medicine and demon energy.

Seeing him successfully pass, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and light laughter emerged within the Immortal Ship.

A moment later, Qu Luming helped locate, Fu Qingzhou opened the Immortal Ship’s restriction, and Du Li was teleported inside the Immortal Ship. Just in time to see Bai Yunqi, whose injury had recovered, stirring the water waves with a majestic aura, showing signs of Transforming into a Dragon, and couldn’t help but admire, thinking that following Mr. Jiang, if nothing else, the opportunities are assured!

"How is it on your end?" Qu Luming came up gossiping as soon as he saw him, asking, "Was the spread of news done by Ye Fan? Are cultivators now taking real actions?"

Du Li was troubled, sighed heavily, "Battles have erupted more than twenty times, our side’s casualties are manageable, and we can still hold on. I guessed it was that Ye Fan who leaked the information, now there are too many people following the trail, even quite a few from the alliance, truly hard to defend against!"

"Then don’t defend." Qu Luming, clutching hands, patiently advised, "After all these years, the Demon Realm Alliance hasn’t been able to find a method or Divine Artifact to move or store the Power of the Celestial Dao, do you think those with greedy intentions, an unruly crowd, could possess such Treasure?

Since it can’t be stolen, if provoked, it will even be consumed, I honestly think it’s safer than any Treasure in this world. Why waste so much manpower and resources, risking lives to protect an invincible thing?"

Du Li glared at him, "When you speak lightly, that’s because this Treasure isn’t yours. If it were yours, you would think of every way possible to prevent anyone from approaching."
