out of time

Chapter 356
Xu Qing's words were like thunder, which exploded in the city of Taichu and reverberated.

All the monks who heard it were shocked, especially those disciples from various sects.

It's been too long since such a life-and-death battle occurred in Absolute Beginning City.

Generally speaking, the disciples of various sects challenge each other here, which is a matter of default. After all, they are all the arrogance of the human race, so it is inevitable that there will be disputes and thoughts of superiority when so many gather together.

Coupled with the rules of the Sword Court, the challenges are even more frequent. During this period, every sect has been challenged or challenged.

But on the eve of the sword-wielding trial this time, there had never been a life-and-death battle, so Xu Qing's words were naturally like thunder to everyone.

They never expected that Xu Qing, who had been avoiding battles and considered cowardly by many people in private, would kill like this when he opened his mouth now.

This is beyond the expectations of many people.

"Enough!"

"It's fine if you don't make a move, but if you make a move, you will kill someone!"

"I was still thinking, how could Xu Qing be so cowardly as a quasi-daoist, but now he is strong enough!"

"It's hard to say, I hope this Xu Qing is not looking for a dead end, Li Ziliang is not so simple!"

All of a sudden, discussions continued, and a large number of monks took off, all looking in the direction of Taisi Xianmen, going to see if Li Ziliang would accept the challenge.

Among the Feiqi crowd, there were also disciples of the Alliance.

For the monks of the alliance, they knew more about Xu Qing and felt at ease, especially for the disciples with seven blood pupils.

And soon, more and more people paid attention to this matter, and so did the figures flying out, all waiting for Li Ziliang's reply.

Even the climbers who climbed Liyou Zhu in the early days came down one after another to pay attention to this battle. It can be said that in an instant, Xu Qing's words immediately attracted everyone's attention.

In fact, Xu Qing, as a member of the Eight Sects Alliance who enjoys Taoist treatment, has an unusual identity and status.

The same is true for Li Ziliang. Although he is not a Taisi Daozi, he is also very famous.

In addition, Li Ziliang was in the limelight during this period. He won the challenge and was challenged more than a dozen times with ease.

Some sword wielders even paid attention to him, so the battle between him and Xu Qing would naturally become a hot topic.

In the gathering of countless gazes, Li Ziliang's expression was as usual in Taisi Xianmen, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, but there was some hesitation in his heart.

People outside don't know Xu Qing, but he has paid special attention to him, and it is not easy to know him.

If it wasn't a life-and-death battle, he wouldn't have any hesitation. After all, there is no life-and-death crisis anyway, so he can give it a go.

And he feels that there is a high probability that he can win.

And fighting Xu Qing will attract more people's attention. After all, the opponent's status in the Eight Sects Alliance is unusual. If he wins, he can press the opponent and jump up.

The gains in fame will be many.

At the same time, the display of one's own talent can also attract the attention of the sword holding court and secretly add points to oneself.

The most important thing is that someone promised him a great benefit, asking him to take this opportunity to test Xu Qing's depth.

He knew that that person valued Xu Qing's life lamp.

And with that person's habit, every shot is extremely meticulous, pursuing the way to win.

In fact, he, Li Ziliang, also fell in love with Xu Qing's life lamp.

But now he is not ready, so if it is a life-and-death battle...he is a little hesitant.

This is not the Taisi Xianmen. If you really go there, it will be a real life-and-death battle. With so many people watching, whether it is the Taisi Xianmen or the alliance, it is impossible to protect.

But thinking of his current four heavenly palaces, his combat power is strong, and according to information, Xu Qing only has three heavenly palaces.

Even if there is an imperial level skill, it is only comparable to him.

"A life-and-death battle... If I kill him, I will take away his life lamp, and the Eight Sect Alliance and that person will have nothing to say."

"But Xu Qing dared to propose a life-and-death battle, he must have something to say, the outcome of this battle is hard to say..." Li Ziliang is not stupid, he has a thorough analysis, but now he is more or less stuck.

After all, he was the one who put forward many previous challenges. If he doesn't take up the life-and-death battle, he will lose all face and the attention he once gained will disappear in an instant.

"Although there are unknown dangers, it is also an opportunity."

"Besides, my trump card, apart from Zhang Siyun, who is insidious, cunning, cruel and almost inhuman, no one else has encountered a second person who can avoid it."

Li Ziliang pondered for a while, and the discussions outside gradually increased. As various rumors reverberated faintly, Li Ziliang's eyes flashed murderous intent.

Knowing that he couldn't hesitate any longer, he sneered again.

"Xu Qing, you are looking for death, no wonder I!"

With a sway of his body, he flew out suddenly, and the moment he stepped into the sky, the eyes of countless monks in the city of Absolute Beginning focused directly on it.

Under the attention of everyone, Li Ziliang turned into a long rainbow and went straight to where Xu Qing was.

From a distance, he saw Xu Qing standing in mid-air outside the city.

Wearing a purple shirt, with long hair, a bewitching face, an indifferent expression, and calm eyes.

All this made Li Ziliang squint his eyes, and without slowing down, he went straight to Xu Qing, and when he was about to rush out of the city, his speed suddenly accelerated, unexpectedly breaking twice as fast as before.

He was already very fast when he came, but now the sudden explosion created a sense of surprise, especially this kind of speed that he had never shown before with others.

At this moment, the speed soared, and his whole body turned into an afterimage, and rushed out of the city in an instant, approaching Xu Qing, raised his right hand, and pressed it suddenly.

There are four heavenly palaces changing behind him.

These four heavenly palaces are similar in shape, but different from ordinary heavenly palaces. They look like a ladder. The whole body is made of crystal, and the runes are scattered on them, emitting bright light.

At this moment, as Li Ziliang raised his hand, the four heavenly palaces suddenly roared and appeared directly above Xu Qing's head.

They are piled on top of each other. From a distance, the four heavenly palaces are superimposed, as if forming a crystal pagoda.

Suppress Xu Qing instantly.

All of this happened in a flash, combined with Li Ziliang's speed, it formed a killer weapon.

Even at the moment of falling, Li Ziliang suddenly dispersed his spiritual sense, sent a voice transmission to Xu Qing, and uttered a sentence that only Xu Qing could hear.

"Xu Qing, I've been looking for you for a long time, the hatred between you and me, do you still remember me..."

This sentence echoed in Xu Qing's heart, Xu Qing was expressionless, he didn't know the other party, and he definitely hadn't met, otherwise, if the other party had hatred with him, he would have been on the bamboo slips long ago.

So he didn't care about what the other party said, but at this moment, the four heavenly palaces roared down and smashed towards him, and the power of the golden core of the four palaces broke out in an all-round way.

In an instant, all directions shook, and the pagoda formed by the four heavenly palaces submerged Xu Qing's figure.

Countless lightning bolts spewed out from it to connect with the ground, like wire drawing, which looked amazing. At the same time, the speed of the pagoda hitting the ground became faster.

But in the next moment, the pagoda suddenly stopped in mid-air, and there was an earth-shattering loud noise echoing in the trembling of the whole body.

Amidst the roar, the tower collapsed rapidly visible to the naked eye, torn apart, and turned into countless fragments that blasted in all directions.

Xu Qing's figure in mid-air and the nine-layered waves that shook the sky around him were revealed.

Wave after wave, rumbled and spread in all directions. Standing on the waves, Xu Qing looked like a sea god.

There was another roar, and behind Xu Qing, above the waves, the Golden Crow was like the sun rising from the sea, emitting golden light above Xu Qing.

In the golden light, although its body is black, its seven-colored phoenix tails that have grown to nineteen are flying in all directions, and flaming phoenix feathers whirl around the world where it passes.

Li Ziliang's complexion changed. He knew that Xu Qing was very strong, but he didn't really feel the berserk power of Xu Qing until this moment.

Although it gave him the feeling that it was still the strength of the fourth palace, it was infinitely close to the fifth palace.

"Damn it, why didn't my voice transmission plant any doubts in his heart!"

Almost the moment he looked at Xu Qing, Xu Qing moved.

The speed was so fast that in an instant, he stepped on the waves and went straight to Li Ziliang. The Golden Crow spread its wings and accompanied by the angry waves.

Li Ziliang's pupils constricted, his body retreated rapidly, and he made a fist with both hands.

"Immortal method, true spirit ice spear!"

Ice spears were transformed from all around, roaring towards Xu Qing, any one of these ice spears exuded a crystal-like radiance.

Blocked Xu Qing, but was destroyed by Xu Qing Jinwu.

"Immortal method, omen of fire!"

In an instant, another sea of ​​flames formed in all directions, turning into a huge flaming palm, sweeping towards Xu Qing, trying to block it again, but was submerged by the angry waves.

"Immortal law, the hexagram of the four palaces!"

The fragments of the shattered heavenly palaces in the sky all blurred and dissipated at this moment, and then four more heavenly palaces were transformed in mid-air, arranged next to each other, two in front and two vertically behind.

It's like a broken hexagram, blocking Xu Qing's front, as if he is analyzing it and deducing it.

Without ending, Li Ziliang waved his hand, and a huge mirror appeared under Xu Qing.

This mirror is illusory, and there are countless blurry figures in the mirror surface, which cannot be seen clearly, but it seems to have some strange power inside, which makes people's eyes look involuntarily. The more they cannot see clearly, the more they want to see.

After finishing all this, Li Ziliang raised his right hand and made a swift stroke, as if he was calculating something.

The many figures in the illusioned mirror also became clear from blurred.

Until the next moment, after Xu Qing punched his heavenly palace away, Li Ziliang suddenly changed his expression, spat out a mouthful of blood, looked at Xu Qing with disbelief on his face, and cried out in surprise.

"I know why you don't know me anymore, your body...you are actually..."

During the speech, he put on a posture as if he had seen a ghost, turned around suddenly, and fled towards the distance.

At the moment when he fled, Xu Qing raised his head and looked at him with a calm expression. He suddenly raised his right hand and grabbed it violently.

The direction Xu Qing grabbed was not where Li Ziliang escaped, but behind him!
