Emperor Qiankun

Chapter 374 Xue Jing vs. Immortal Emperor

"Buzzing..."

Above the sky, thousands of sword lights, imbued with the incomparably sharp and powerful essence of the sword, resembled a blazing sun falling from the heavens.

The golden light tore through the clouds, and with overwhelming force and the might of thunder, it rushed toward the place where Xue Jing and Long Qinghe were!

Xue Jing and Long Qinghe had been resting their heads together, seemingly cuddling and sharing this moment of tranquility.

But, at that very moment, those sharp sword energies approached like dragons emerging from the sea!

Xue Jing's body jolted suddenly, and he leaped up like an arrow released from a bow.

His aura exploded to its extreme in an instant, and that aura was extremely strange, as cold and unpredictable as demonic energy, and as violent and ferocious as demonic energy.

The two intertwined and permeated each other, forming an extremely terrifying wave that spread wantonly.

At this moment, there was no trace of his ethereal, otherworldly aura left on him!

He had transformed into a demon, exuding a chilling aura.

......

at the same time.

His body also underwent a tremendous change, growing incredibly tall at a speed visible to the naked eye;

Like a giant standing tall between heaven and earth, majestically towering between the two worlds.

His eyes shone like beams of light as he stared directly at the overwhelming golden sword energy, his gaze showing no panic or fear.

Only unwavering determination!

Immediately afterwards, he threw a punch, the wind whistling as if accompanied by the roar of a dragon and the howl of a tiger.

With each punch thrown in succession!

Strange gray currents, like surging undercurrents, pierced through layers of clouds and mist, carrying a destructive force as they crashed towards the surging sword energy.

------

"Rumble..."

A deafening explosion suddenly rang out, like a thunderclap resounding between heaven and earth.

In an instant, the incomparably sharp sword energy and the fist energy unleashed by Xue Jing collided and clashed with each other, eventually dissipating into nothingness.

The aftershocks of their attacks swept wildly in all directions like raging waves.

The surrounding space groaned repeatedly as it was struck by this terrifying force, as if it were overwhelmed.

The clouds and mist were instantly shattered, turning into countless tiny water droplets that scattered in the air;

The heavens and earth shook violently, as if about to collapse;

Even the most solid space was riddled with dark cracks under the onslaught of this force;

It was as if a ferocious beast had opened its blood-red maw, ready to devour everything in the world!

But it is unknown whether Xue Jing had planned this all along, or whether it was fate.

A spatial black hole appeared not far from Long Qinghe.

The opening was neither too big nor too small, resembling a mysterious gateway to an unknown world, allowing only one person to pass through at a time.

And at this critical moment!

Then Xue Jing shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Qinghe, run!"

His voice was filled with determination and deep emotion, as if he had used up all his strength!

------

After breaking free from the terrifying, relentless, and highly targeted pressure, Long Qinghe's figure swayed and naturally transformed into human form.

Previously, she had decisively swallowed the healing elixir, and the gentle medicinal power was circulating in her body, slowly repairing the injuries she had suffered in the battle.

However, even so.

On her flawless, beautiful face, traces of bright red blood could still be seen at the corners of her mouth.

Blood slowly slid down the corner of her mouth, staining her lips red, but unexpectedly it accentuated her tragically beautiful appearance even more.

Like a thorny rose that sways in the wind and rain but still blooms!

Upon hearing Xue Jing's urgent and resolute words, Long Qinghe firmly shook her head.

With a swift movement, like a graceful swallow, she arrived beside Xue Jing in an instant. She tilted her head slightly, her eyes filled with concern and determination, and said softly:

"let's go together!"

After saying that, she stretched out her slender yet strong hand, trying to pull Xue Jing away from this dangerous place.

However, Xue Jing's towering figure remained unmoved, like an unshakeable mountain.

He first looked at Long Qinghe with tender and lingering eyes, his gaze filled with endless love and reluctance, as if he wanted to imprint her image deep in his heart.

Then, he slowly turned his head and looked directly at the Immortal Emperor's blurry yet infinitely majestic face;

A resolute light shone in his eyes, as if he wanted to see through the fog and understand the Immortal Emperor's expression and the thoughts deep in his heart.

......

"Huh~"

The Immortal Emperor let out a soft exclamation, a sound that, though soft, seemed to contain boundless majesty and echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

He seemed to be wondering how Xue Jing had withstood his incredibly fierce sword strike without being hurt.

But this brief doubt did not linger in his mind for long.

He quickly regained his composure, a disdainful sneer curling at the corner of his mouth.

Then, with an extremely indifferent and superior attitude, he looked down at everything below.

However, deep in his heart, his determination to kill Xue Jing grew stronger and stronger, as unshakable as a rock.

Seeing that Xue Jing was staring straight at him, the Immortal Emperor suddenly shot out two brilliant golden beams of light from his eyes!

The beam of light was like two incredibly sharp immortal swords, piercing through the air in an instant with a destructive force, fiercely stabbing towards Xue Jing!

His eyes revealed undisguised arrogance and contempt!

In his eyes, Xue Jing was nothing more than an insignificant ant that could be easily crushed at any time.

And, at that very moment.

An invisible yet terrifying pressure seemed to materialize, sweeping across the sky and pressing down on Xue Jing.

That feeling was as if he were the sole ruler of the world.

I am the only one who reigns supreme in heaven and on earth!

Everyone must bow down and submit to him.

......

Even though Li Qingyuan was in another dimension, he could clearly feel the terror of this oppressive force;

It was as if an invisible hand was forcibly pressing down on his body, making him want to kneel or crawl down.

This oppressive force is not only directed at the body, but also strikes directly at the mind and soul;

It was as if they wanted to completely crush his body and shatter his soul, causing him to perish in this endless fear!

Over there, Xue Jing naturally felt this unparalleled, overwhelming, and terrifying pressure immediately.

The feeling was like the might of the heavens crashing down from the highest heavens, transforming into two irresistible forces that enveloped him tightly.

In that instant, a desperate thought flashed through his mind, as if death was imminent and he could only accept this cruel fate.

However, Xue Jing was no ordinary person.

The thought flashed through his mind in an instant, and he broke free from that despair in a flash.

He slowly withdrew his gaze from the Immortal Emperor, inwardly mocking him:

"My 'good father,' are you trying to completely destroy my spirit?!"

He knew that once the mind is destroyed, a person is like a walking corpse, losing all vitality and life force. That is worse than death, and it is worse than being alive!

This shows how ruthless and heartless the Immortal Emperor was. He not only killed people, but also destroyed their hearts, completely erasing Xue Jing from this world!

......

At this moment, the gray air currents that had been surging and rolling around Xue Jing's body could be seen;

It seemed to be controlled by a mysterious and powerful force, gradually solidifying into a tangible substance and slowly transforming into a mysterious and unpredictable spiritual field.

The spiritual field was like an invisible fortress, tightly enveloping him and Long Qinghe.

From its appearance, it is as solid as a rock, seemingly able to withstand any attack in the world, indestructible, giving people a strong feeling of being unshakable.

But fate always seems to love playing tricks on people!

The two golden beams of light, as intense as blazing suns, crashed into the spirit field.

In an instant, ripples began to spread across the surface of the spiritual field.

Immediately afterwards, fine yet clear cracks quietly appeared, and the crevices spread out like a spider web.

It seemed that at any moment, this seemingly solid spiritual field would burst and shatter like fragile glass, eventually dissipating into nothingness.

"Boom!"

A series of crisp, piercing sounds rang out, like the prelude to death, echoing in the silent air.

Under the continuous impact of the golden beam of light, the cracks grew larger and larger, like hideous wounds, constantly tearing apart the defenses of the spiritual field.

Xue Jing, however, seemed to have expected this. He stood quietly in the spirit field, his posture as upright as a pine tree, his face as calm as still water, without the slightest panic or wavering.
