Chapter 137: Chapter 119 Sword River’s Might (3.2K for monthly ticket)

Nightfall.

Li Qian donned a black cloak essential for night travel, left Chen Bell Platform, and swiftly flew away from Divine Sword Sect.

He had traveled hundreds of miles away from Divine Sword Sect.

He had entered a savage wilderness area.

The endless forests here stretched north to the Kunwu Plateau and east to the Tianzhi Mountains.

Li Qian stood atop a cliff.

The moon hid behind the clouds, casting a hazy and foggy veil between heaven and earth.

Li Qian closed his eyes, connected with the Vast Sword River in his mind, and released it as his thoughts moved.

Hum!

He felt like the primordial qi between heaven and earth vibrated as if everything shook in that moment.

Centered around him, within a thousand meters, the rolling primordial qi vibrated and then transformed into sword qi, endless sword qi slowly converging and swirling around Li Qian as he flew.

Finally, it gathered into a River of Sword Qi.

This scene would be incredibly shocking if it wasn’t night with dim and hazy light.

Suddenly, Li Qian pointed with his finger, and the surging River of Sword Qi burst forth, violently crashing against the steep cliff opposite him.

Along with the thundering roar, explosions erupted, huge chunks of rock shattered and collapsed, and when the dust settled, a giant gap seven to eight zhang wide and four to five zhang deep had formed on the steep cliff.

Looking at such power, Li Qian was extremely shocked within.

This was no ordinary earth and stone, but rock that had hardened over tens of thousands of years.

His Great River Sword Qi had burst forth with such terrifying destructive power.

"Is this the power of the Heavenly Phenomenon Level?"

Li Qian muttered to himself.

This was just his True Image Level Sword Intent and cultivation at the True Pill Realm Late Stage. What if he became a true Celestial and comprehended the real Heavenly Phenomenon Level Sword Intent?

The destructive power would be unimaginable, surely at the level of city destruction.

He had no doubt, with one sword strike, a mighty Martial Arts Army would be utterly annihilated.

That is to say, even a strong Martial Arts Army... would be no match for a true Heavenly Phenomenon Level Celestial.

No wonder the old Emperor Wu suppressed Dachang for two hundred years, with no one daring to rebel.

"But, it consumes quite a bit of spiritual energy, I guess I could use it only two or three times at most."

Li Qian sighed.

He had used the Great River Sword Qi just once and already felt a slight swelling sensation between his eyebrows.

With this thought, with a flick of his mind, the sound of the Chen Bell resonated in his consciousness; dong dong dong... his spirit seemingly bathed in the bell’s sound, the swelling sensation gradually dissipating.

.....

In the jungle, a force of over ten thousand warriors clad in dark green armor rapidly marched.

Even though it was night and they were moving through the remote, dense forest over hills and mountains, their marching speed was extremely fast, as if they were walking on flat ground. Each individual in this force was at least a low-tier Martial Artist.

Besides, a group of over a thousand people in black followed at the end of the troop.

Boom!

Suddenly, a dull booming sound came from afar, and the ground shook slightly.

"Stop."

A Celestial flying in mid-air suddenly uttered softly.

Orders were absolute.

The moving army quickly halted.

Subsequently, a group of scouts detached from the troop and stealthily sped towards the direction of the blast.

Not long after, the halted troops bypassed the noisy area and continued forward.

Half an hour later, the scouts returned.

"Report to the commander, there seems to have been a cliff collapse in the canyon ahead..."

"Cliff collapse?"

The Celestial in the air slightly frowned.

This season wasn’t the rainy season, nor were there any earthquakes. How could there be a cliff collapse?

But he didn’t ponder too long, as he had more important matters to attend to.

On a higher mountain terrain, a shadow lurked, watching the activity in the distance.

It was Li Qian.

After completing the test of the Great River Sword Qi, he intended to leave, but unexpectedly, some people appeared heading this way.

This area was desolate and mountainous, and the sudden appearance of people piqued his curiosity.

Thus, he secretly followed these people, only to make an even greater discovery—a massive troop swiftly moving through the dense forest.

These people wore battle armor, arranged in an orderly manner. Although they didn’t release their Military Heart and Battle Intent, such a formation inevitably made Li Qian suspect this was a Martial Arts Army.

A Martial Arts Army appearing in the desolate mountains was somewhat outrageous.

The figure flying in the sky was clearly of the Celestial level.

Celestial, Martial Arts Army.... _{frёewebnoѵēl.com}

The combination of these two indicated this troop had significant intentions.

Moreover, the direction of this troop’s march seemed to be... Divine Sword Sect.

His brows furrowed, could it be they were planning to covertly attack Divine Sword Sect?

But the issue was, the wars within Taixing Dao’s kingdom had already concluded, where did this Martial Arts Army spring from?

Once this substantial Martial Arts Army passed, another large group of people in black followed.

From these black clad persons, he sensed an aura that belonged to half-demons.

"Eh, another half-demon army?"

Li Qian was taken aback.

Since the Moon Worship Sect’s half-demon army appeared here, that Martial Arts Army was undoubtedly a rebel army, but from which kingdom’s rebels?

Ming State belonged to the kingdom controlled by Linyuan Dao, governed by Ning Prince Mansion, and the Ning Prince was an unrelated prince not involved in this rebellion.

It was reported that Ning Prince Mansion had always cooperated with the Imperial Family to suppress the rebellion in Ning Prince Mansion.

Thus, for the rebels of Ning Prince Mansion to come here, Fortnite would first have to get through the Ning Prince Mansion’s territory, otherwise, a deep penetration alone would be too risky.

Moreover, the rebels from Ning Prince Mansion crossed such a distance just to attack Divine Sword Sect?
