The Growth of a God

Chapter 884 - 18: Master of Qingping Sword

Fu Yi ultimately succeeded in persuading Li Bai and An Dao Yi to let him act alone.

"Do you think Fu Yi and the others can win?"

"And regarding the matter of the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Treasure Pagoda, did he deceive us?"

Watching Fu Yi’s departing figure, An Dao Yi suddenly asked.

"Even mountains and seas can fall, a word once given cannot be taken back."

Lying on the pavilion behind An Dao Yi, Li Bai drank wine while wielding a sword, revealing a loneliness Fu Yi had never seen in his eyes.

"He’s not the type to speak without certainty. If he had no confidence, he wouldn’t have spoken."

"As for the ’Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Treasure Pagoda’?"

"If he truly possessed it... or even just touched this Supreme Treasure, he wouldn’t have hesitated before the Path to Immortality for so long."

Initially, Li Bai noticed Fu Yi’s hesitation, which was why he appeared to explain the origins and capabilities of the ’Path to Immortality.’

"He reminds me of when I first arrived."

"If I hadn’t met you, perhaps I wouldn’t have dared to step onto the Path to Immortality like him."

Hearing this, An Dao Yi also remembered their first meeting and recalled that past which should have been buried.

"He and you are ultimately different."

"You’ve always been alone, but he has a civilization behind him."

"Speaking of which, are you willing to accompany him to this Guangsheng City, prepared to wield your sword once more?"

Turning towards Li Bai on the pavilion, An Dao Yi spoke gravely.

"Taibai, just as Fu Yi mentioned, we don’t need to continue getting involved."

"This incident is truly dangerous, potentially involving the Qing Emperor."

"From the earliest Fuxi Saint Emperor, to the later Taiyi Jiu Ku Celestial Venerable, and now the Emperor Dongji Qinghua..."

"The Qing Emperor is the only one among the Five Directions and Five Emperors who has changed emperors only four times..."

Before An Dao Yi could finish speaking, Li Bai had already stood up and interrupted.

"My visit to Guangsheng City this time isn’t just to lend Fu Yi a helping hand."

"Don’t you want to avenge that sword wound?"

Fixing his gaze on An Dao Yi, Li Bai’s eyes regained their brilliance.

"You... haven’t forgotten, have you?"

The voice was suddenly silent, and for a moment An Dao Yi found it difficult to meet Li Bai’s gaze.

"Of course, I haven’t forgotten!"

"Don’t forget, before the Emperor Dongji Qinghua, you were the Qing Emperor of Guangsheng City!"

"The renowned Emperor of Longevity of the South Pole lost his position, severing the Path of Primordial Chaos, all for me..."

"You think I can forget? You think I dare forget?"

With each word Li Bai spoke, his voice grew louder.

By the time he said the last sentence, the anger and sense of betrayal had already materialized.

Clang!

With a sound of the blade leaving its sheath, the long sword in Li Bai’s hand emitted a cyan light.

"Taibai, I’m not as great as you say."

After a brief hesitation, An Dao Yi sighed again while looking at the long sword in Li Bai’s hand.

"When I first befriended you, it was merely for your ’Qingping sword’."

...........................

"Are you really not planning to leverage the power of Li Bai and An Dao Yi?"

Silently manifesting an eyeball, A Gu approached Fu Yi’s ear and asked quietly.

"You should have already noticed, right?"

"Li Bai’s identity is not simple, very likely he is..."

Listening to the obvious hesitation in A Gu’s words, Fu Yi merely smiled and then took over the conversation.

"A sword, three feet six inches five lengths, with a sheath and blade entirely black, a cyan lotus embellishing its surface..."

"He’s never hidden his identity; how could I not guess it?"

"The legendary ’Master of Qingping Sword,’ Inheritor of the Upper Pure Spirit Treasure, the Sword Immortal Qinglian whose sword shone coldly across nineteen provinces."

"The legend of him killing one person every ten steps, moving thousands of miles without staying, still circulates in Bai Yu City to this day!"

At this point, Fu Yi slightly paused his speech.

"In the legends of Bai Yu City, the ’Qingping sword’ is a Supreme Treasure of equal status with the ’Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Treasure Pagoda.’"

"Due to Li Bai’s past recklessness, arrogance, and defiance, he was betrayed and his lineage stolen, his attributes diminished, leaving him to shelter under the White Emperor’s banner."

"Despite this, many immortals are still eyeing Li Bai, always wanting to snatch his ’Qingping sword.’"

"His bringing me to Guangsheng City already entails a huge risk."

"In fairness, I couldn’t possibly let him get involved in our affairs."

Fu Yi’s words, as expected, left A Gu silent.

As a symbiote, A Gu couldn’t comprehend such complex emotions and thoughts, but she was willing to support the host she personally chose.

"Then what are you planning next?"

Facing A Gu’s question, Fu Yi suddenly spread his wings and then ascended into the sky as a stream of light.

"Isn’t it obvious?"

"Of course, strike decisively before the Qing Emperor can react!"

The next moment, a giant mecha appeared above Guangsheng City, looking down like a god upon the city built high in the clouds.

Boom!

When that huge fist struck the Yuxiao Palace.

The immortals near the Immortal Transformation Pool hadn’t even reacted.

Only when the Artificial God threw the second punch did the immortals use various Divine Techniques to defend against the sudden attack.

Unfortunately, Fu Yi, who was well-prepared, would never let the important rebirth location of the Immortal Transformation Pool off so easily.

Boom!

Such a sneak attack opportunity only comes once.

Fu Yi must inflict maximum damage on the city’s vital forces before the Qing Emperor can respond.

This is a lesson learned with blood and tears by the Mountain and Sea Civilization through countless conflicts and wars.

"How dare you!"

In a flash of electric light, a Golden Armor Immortal manifested with a thousand-foot true form.

Simultaneously, various Immortal Techniques and Magical Treasures were applied to the Golden Armor Immortal, enhancing his power and defense attributes.

However, just as Fu Yi had previously discussed with Li Bai and An Dao Yi, this was not his war alone.

Boom!

While most immortals’ attention was drawn to Fu Yi, another massive explosion sounded.

And this time, a mecha appeared near a teleportation point being restarted.

They were other Mountain and Sea People who had signaled Fu Yi and had been lurking in Guangsheng City all along.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Then the third, fourth, fifth...

An endless stream of mechas appeared in every corner of Guangsheng City, and launched a full-scale attack on vital centers of the city.

This was the first war initiated by the Mountain and Sea Civilization.

They would spare no effort to seize Guangsheng City and make it the first foothold for the Mountain and Sea Civilization in Bai Yu City.
