Sacrificial Artifact System: From Bell-ringer to the Ancestral Patriarch of the Sect novel Chapter 251

Chapter 251: Chapter 183: Instantly Killing Three Demon Saints (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Back at Chen Bell Platform.

Li Qian began to study the Taishan Secret Formation he had acquired.

After a long while, he opened his eyes, his face showing a trace of anticipation.

This Taishan Secret Formation was indeed advanced, involving some array elements he had not touched before, which were of great use to him.

It was worthwhile for this trip to Jade Capital.

He knew that this Taishan Secret Formation was worth far more than two hundred Primordial Stones, but since he obtained it through legitimate channels, it didn’t count as taking advantage for nothing.

"There’s a force within the Martial Union known as Dao Sect, the source of array techniques for the Human Clan, I wonder how powerful the Array Masters inside are?"

Li Qian thought to himself.

The Taishan Formation was just one branch within the Dao Sect; although widely known due to its prevalence, the truly formidable Array Veins were not limited to the Taishan branch.

It is said that the boundary of the Human World was once constructed by the Dao Sect.

Thus, in the following period, he devoted more time and effort to study array techniques.

Months passed by.

One day, while Li Qian was studying array techniques, his fourth disciple, Xu Long, returned.

"Master."

Xu Long approached Li Qian and bowed.

Li Qian looked up and his face showed surprise, "You’ve mastered the Pure Holy Body to Great Success?"

"Yes, Master."

Xu Long nodded.

"It seems you indeed have a talent for cultivating this technique," Li Qian said with a smile.

Among his five disciples, even Yang Fan, who had the highest talent, made very slow progress in cultivating the Pure Holy Body and had not even reached Minor Success.

It wasn’t that they weren’t working hard enough, but simply that it wasn’t quite suitable for them.

On the contrary, Xu Long was more suited for cultivating the Pure Holy Body, and his progress was much faster than theirs including Yang Fan.

Of course, it was incomparable to his own speed.

However, according to Li Qian’s judgment, Xu Long might eventually cultivate the Qi Blood Holy Realm.

"Xu Long, your fellow disciple Yang has already taken in two disciples. Hurry up, isn’t our sect set to recruit new members soon? Pick one then," Li Qian suddenly remembered and mentioned.

"Okay, Master."

Xu Long quickly responded.

He too felt that it was time to take on a disciple himself.

.....

A few days later, Li Qian left the Divine Sword Sect.

He planned to make a long journey to see the outside world.

The Divine Sword Sect had an Incarnated Fox Puppet which had reached the level of a high-ranked Heavenly Demon, so unless faced with a Martial Saint, it wouldn’t be too troublesome.

Chi Country was located to the north of Chang Country, with Qi Country in between.

And between Qi Country and Chang Country was a vast plateau mountain range, making traffic between Chang and Qi Countries complicated, only accessible by sea or by taking a detour through Sichuan.

For Li Qian, who could fly, this was no longer considered an insurmountable gulf.

Flying through the plateau mountain range, peaks and ridges were commonplace, with few signs of human life.

Once across the plateau, entering Qi Country, the nation was true to its name with mountains everywhere, even more complex geographically than Chang Country.

It was truly a country amid mountains.

Crossing Qi Country and entering Chi Country presented a different scenery.

Chi Country was situated in a vast plain with fertile land and densely populated towns.

Compared to the complex terrain of Chang Country and the many mountain forests of Qi Country, most of Chi Country was located on the plains, with abundant water sources and a dense population.

No wonder the geographical records he had seen mentioned the abundance of Chi Country quite frequently.

After crossing a wide river, the landscape changed again, the world seemingly becoming barren in an instant, many towns turning into eerily deserted ghost towns.

Li Qian knew that half of Chi Country had fallen into the hands of the Demon Race more than a decade ago.

Dao Sect had to rely on a second line of defense to resist the invasion of the Demon Race.

The populations of these abandoned towns must have been relocated earlier, no wonder the area south of the river was very prosperous, yet north of the river, it was so desolate, giving a sense of decay extending over a thousand miles.

He came here also to see firsthand just how bleak the frontline situation was.

Now, Li Qian became very cautious.

The frontline battlefield was ahead, and powerful demons might be encountered at any moment.

Although he was now a Great Saint with the Qi Blood Holy Realm and capable of self-defense, if he was unlucky and met a Demon Clan Great Saint, it would be dangerous.

At night.

Li Qian concealed his aura, walking on the ground.

Flying in the sky could expose him more easily.

He now disguised his aura as that of an ordinary Heavenly Person.

This way, he wouldn’t attract too much attention from powerful demons or Dao Sect experts, ensuring safety.

Even though he was a Great Saint and had the Qi Blood Holy Realm and could invoke the power of the Chen Bell Domain from a distance, he felt it necessary to remain low-key and cautious.

There are higher realms beyond one’s own.

Even if he later achieved the Supreme Saint... there was still the higher realm of the Longevity Secret Realm.

Martial Arts Cultivation often stresses bravery and progress, but Li Qian thought it more necessary to tread cautiously as if on thin ice.

At midnight, Li Qian suddenly sensed unusual movements in the sky.

Boom!

A muffled sound, followed by a bright burst of light, and then a screech... intense air turbulence that caused the trees on the ground to rustle loudly.

Roar!

Suddenly, a howl sounded, and a gigantic pure white demon creature with wings on its back and resembling a tiger tore through the clouds, revealing its figure.

The size of this demon creature was probably a hundred yards tall, its body emitting a cold white glow.

"Is this the Devil God Battle Body?"

Li Qian was utterly astonished.

This aura was definitely that of a Demon Clan Great Saint.

He did not expect to encounter a Demon Clan Great Saint so soon.
