Chapter 1748: Revenge of the Peerless Swordswoman
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Liu Qianhuan would never be able to forget the scene of Qiu Hong being run through by the Holy Death Spear. She would never be able to forget the expression that her mother had worn as she held her in her dying arms. Liu Qianhuan had sworn that she would definitely take revenge one day.
Now that the human tribe was on the verge of an existential catastrophe, however, there was almost no opportunity left for Liu Qianhuan to take revenge. Thus, when she learned that the Spirit Realm had opened, she secretly made her way over and snuck in.
“Right now, I’m only at the Return to Void Intermediate Stage. However, I possess the Ancient Sword Dao Physique, and I’m also capable of releasing a peerless sword dao true intent. It shouldn’t be too difficult for me to finish off the severely injured Black Crystal Void Spirit King…” There was a piercing glimmer in Liu Qianhuan’s eyes. The weapon in her hand was not a six-feathered staff; it was a sword.
This sword was currently releasing bursts of frosty air, and it seemed as if it was ready to release a devastating attack at any moment.
The battle between the three-headed dragon beast and the Black Crystal Void Spirit King had already reached an intense climax. The shockwaves of their battle shook heaven and earth, and the expanse of land within a fifty-kilometer radius of them had already become a forbidden land of death.
When the Black Crystal Void Spirit King released its Ghost Mists, even the boundless flames burning through the Blazing Cemetery were suppressed.
A burst of soul power erupted from the three-headed dragon beast and ripped apart the Spirit King’s Ghost Mists. Then, the three-headed dragon beast spat a terrifying breath of energy, severely wounding the Black Crystal Void Spirit King and causing it to stumble back in retreat.
Liu Qianhuan felt a strong urge to rush out when she saw this. She was afraid that the Black Crystal Void Spirit King would die by the three-headed dragon beast’s hands instead of by her hands.
When attempting to deal a killing blow, it was necessary for her to find the perfect opportunity. If she misjudged the situation, then there was a possibility that the three-headed dragon beast would steal her kill.
In the next instant, however, the Black Crystal Void Spirit King condensed a dark-black vine spear and viciously launched it forward, puncturing one of the three-headed dragons’ three heads.
The three-headed dragon screamed in agony.
Liu Qianhuan shuddered. This was the Holy Death Spear, the spear which had killed her mother!
Holy Death Spear. This spear was formed from the Ancient Infernal Vines, which grew in the most deathly region of the Yellow Spring Divine Mountain. Once it was thrown out, any enemy who was of a lower rank than the thrower would definitely be hit. Once one was hit, they would definitely die!
The cultivation base of the three-headed dragon and the Black Crystal Void Spirit King were almost identical, so the Holy Death Spear was unable to insta-kill the three-headed dragon. The battle between the two of them continued to rage on as they fought over the divine-rank material.
Although they were evenly matched, it was inevitable that one of them would emerge victorious while the other would be defeated.
In the end, all three of the three-headed dragon’s heads were obliterated by the Black Crystal Void Spirit King’s Holy Death Spear.
The Black Crystal Void Spirit King had emerged victorious!
“Hehehe… this Dark God Skeleton is mine now! With this Dark God Skeleton, I’m even more confident of breaking through to the Dao Integration Stage now…” A delighted smile stretched across the Black Crystal Void Spirit King’s face.
The Black Crystal Void Spirit King’s spirit body was full of cracks and fractures, yet it still gripped onto its Holy Death Spear and sliced the three-headed dragon’s corpse into dozens of pieces. Then, it started to slowly place these pieces into its storage ring.
Behind the Silvery Flame Tree, Liu Qianhuan had already begun to move. One of her hands was tightly gripped onto her sword sheath, and the other was already resting on her sword hilt. However, her aura still remained suppressed. Although the Black Crystal Void Spirit King was extremely debilitated, now was still not the time to make a move!
A streak of black suddenly burst over from the distance!
This figure dashed toward the Flaming Crystal Skull in the center of the Blazing Cemetery at a terrifying speed.
“Trying to steal my treasure? Dream on!” The Black Crystal Void Spirit King chortled aloud and immediately launched the Holy Death Spear in its hand. The shockwaves caused by its battle with the three-headed dragon had been immense, so the Spirit King had already anticipated being targeted by other powerful beings.
Now, a supreme being of the Return to Void Stage was trying to pick its pockets.
Well, it seemed that this supreme being was out of luck this time… because it would be the chicken that the Black Crystal Void Spirit King used to warn the monkeys1!
The Holy Death Spear cut through the void and instantly pierced through the supreme being who was trying to steal from the Spirit King. A wretched wail resounded through the air as a tiger-shaped Void Spirit Tribe supreme being collapsed to the ground. The Holy Death Spear quickly sucked at its vitality as it thrashed about violently. This supreme being was, without a doubt, going to die.
Now’s my chance!
Like a pouncing leopard, Liu Qianhuan instantly shot toward the Spirit King!
A blue halo that possessed an overwhelmingly frosty power proliferated outward and immediately washed away the flames that were burning through the Blazing Cemetery. In fact, even the lava-caked ground was covered in a sheet of ice.
Snow and ice swirled through the sky.
The Black Crystal Void Spirit King was already enveloped within Liu Qianhuan’s sword dao domain.
The Spirit King’s expression changed drastically when it sensed the formidable sword intent bearing down upon it. It wanted to move, yet it discovered that its body had become sluggish after being trapped in its enemy’s sword dao domain…
A bright blue sword intent soared into the sky.
Great Ice Sword!
This was the sword that her mother, Qiu Hong, had forged for her. This sword could stabilize the overly powerful and violent aura of her Ancient Sword Dao Physique. In order to forge this sword, Qiu Hong had paid with her life.
Liu Qianhuan had a love-hate relationship with this sword. This was also the reason why she chose to become a young sorceress even though she possessed a supreme sword dao aptitude. A long time had already passed, yet she still couldn’t overcome the barrier in her own mind.
The Great Ice Sword had been an immortal sword when it was just forged. Now, however, it had already been nourished into a formidable divine sword. Moreover, it was a divine sword that was in complete harmony with her sword dao!
In its haste, the Black Crystal Void Spirit King only had time to release a Divine Dao Black Mist Protection Barrier.
However, that dazzling sword projection that robbed heaven and earth of their luster sliced through this black mist like a hot knife through butter.
Liu Qianhuan was already at the Return to Void Intermediate Stage. Right now, she had also drawn on the full power of her Ancient Sword Dao Physique and raised her power to a peak level. Moreover, her power was buffed by her peerless sword dao, as well as her formidable divine sword. Thus, even a healthy Black Crystal Void Spirit King would have trouble defending against this strike, let alone a severely debilitated Black Crystal Void Spirit King.
The Great Ice Sword tore through the black mist and slashed into the Black Crystal Void Spirit King’s extremely hard spirit body skull. A high-pitched tearing sound, as well as an agonized wail, reverberated through the air! After ripping through the Spirit King’s skull, the divine sword continued through its body and ruthlessly sliced it into two halves!
Liu Qianhuan gracefully sheathed her sword. Right now, the enemy who had once instilled a great sense of despair within her was already lying on the ground in two pieces.
“Y-You’re Liu Qianhuan?!” the Black Crystal Void Spirit King stammered with great difficulty. “You came here to seek revenge?”
“Heh, so you still remember what you once did…” A wide grin stretched across Liu Qianhuan’s face. However, the expression in her eyes was cold and full of hate.
There was a bitter expression on the Black Crystal Void Spirit King’s face. How could it forget what it had done? Because of that event, it cowered in the Void Spirit Realm for a long, long time. To the Black Crystal Void Spirit King’s surprise, however, its enemy still managed to find it in this Spirit Realm.
Liu Qianhuan made a grabbing motion toward the distant void. The Holy Death Spear trembled slightly. It then unlatched itself from the dead three-headed dragon and flew into her hand. After receiving it, Liu Qianhuan crudely refined the spear.
“At that time, you used this very spear to kill my mom… Now, I’ll also let you taste the power of this Holy Death Spear…”
After saying this, Liu Qianhuan viciously stabbed the spear into the Black Crystal Void Spirit King’s body.
The Black Crystal Void Spirit King screamed in pain, yet a sinister laugh played across its lips. “Hahaha… the Holy Death Spear can only insta-kill enemies who are of a lower rank than its wielder. However, my cultivation base is higher than you…”
Liu Qianhuan’s expression remained extremely cold. “That’s perfect then. I also don’t want you to die too quickly. This way, I can stab you a few more times and also have you experience the feeling of death a few more times. This is much better…”
The Black Crystal Void Spirit King’s expression faltered. Then, an expression of terror started to materialize on its face.
Right at this moment, the Holy Death Spear was pulled out of its body before being plunged back in again!
“Ahhh!”
The Black Crystal Void Spirit King’s agonized scream echoed throughout the icy land.
Liu Qianhuan expressionlessly pulled the spear out. Then, she plunged it back down once again!
Anguished wails reverberated around the Blazing Cemetery for a long, long time.
The Holy Death Spear plunged into the Black Crystal Void Spirit King’s body time and time again. It was cold, and it was also callous.
Eventually, the Black Crystal Void Spirit King was mercilessly stabbed to death by Liu Qianhuan.
The female gripped the dark-black vine spear tightly as she stood in the snowy land and gazed toward the sky. It was as though her eyes could penetrate through time and see that warm and gentle smile.
“Mom, I’ve helped avenge your death,” she whispered softly.
