Nangong Pushe was somewhat disappointed; after only fourteen moves, there were no more opponents left on the mountainside.
On the mountain peak, Zhao Huangchao saw Zhao Danxia fall. He immediately took out a jade tablet and muttered incantations. As he moved, the sea of clouds in the abyss seemed to boil, the air waves rose several feet, and a strong wind blew between heaven and earth!
The sea of clouds froze into ice, and dozens of ice blades pierced Zhao Xituan, who was not far away, turning him into a man riddled with holes. Several flying swords that he had just released to attack Li Chang'an were easily frozen by Li Chang'an.
Zhao Danxia and Zhao Xituan died instantly, leaving only Zhao Huangchao to retreat far away.
"Li Chang'an, what are you trying to do!"
Li Chang'an also retreated from the mouth of the abyss, waiting for the black dragon to emerge from within. He stood with his hands behind his back, stepping on the sea of clouds, facing Zhao Huangchao from afar.
"Break the mountain, destroy the temple, and slay the dragon."
As a deafening roar echoed from the depths of the abyss, Zhao Huangchao's face darkened, and he said coldly, "Such arrogance."
Immediately afterwards, a huge black figure suddenly flew out from the sea of clouds and hurricane. It turned out to be a black dragon that was a hundred feet long and several feet thick!
The black dragon emerged from the sea of clouds, its body mostly upright in the air. Its entire body was covered in shiny black scales, and its dragon claws emitted a dark luster. Its pair of yellow vertical pupils, as tall as Li Chang'an, stared at Li Chang'an not far away.
"Roar!"
Li Chang'an calmly took out an ancient longsword from his storage space. The longsword emitted a faint, cold light, which made the black dragon's giant eyes twitch.
"Black Dragon, you are the first to force me to use my weapon."
Li Chang'an never uses weapons when fighting enemies. Even when breaking through armor and attacking strong points, he always uses sword energy. But this black dragon is different. With its naturally grown scales and the aura of golden lotus protecting its body, it seems that it can't do without weapons.
Zhao Huangchao stared at the long sword in Li Chang'an's hand, his heart filled with unease. He recognized this sword; almost every cultivator had seen its image in the Daoist scriptures.
Lu Zu Sword!
When Li Chang'an killed Hong Xixiang, he casually accepted this precious sword.
Sensing the threat of the sword intent, the black dragon lowered its head and swooped down, its massive jaws, several meters wide, rushing towards Li Chang'an.
Although this black dragon is enormous, it is incredibly agile, and its control over its body is no different from that of a small loach a few inches long.
Flexible, smooth, and swift.
At the summit, mountain peaks were swept off their backs by the black dragon's massive tail, and the sea of clouds was completely dispersed due to the dragon's rapid movement. Only a person and a dragon were left trembling rapidly on Danxia Peak.
Li Chang'an's "Indulgent Ascension Steps" were even more elusive. Although the giant dragon was agile, it just couldn't catch Li Chang'an. It was about to touch the hem of his clothes, but Li Chang'an would quickly disappear.
"You little beast, why don't you die!"
The dragon heard a roar from behind its head, then felt a chill on the back of its neck, and then saw its massive body writhing wildly as it fell into the depths of the abyss.
One end of its body was cleanly severed by some sharp weapon, and scarlet blood was still spurting out. Its internal organs and muscles were still breathing and trembling rhythmically, as if it had not accepted its own death.
"Roar!"
A shrill roar echoed throughout Longhu Mountain, and even the devout men and women in the small town at the foot of the mountain could hear it clearly.
Li Chang'an grabbed one of the black dragon's horns and easily lifted the dragon head, which was more than ten times larger than his body, into his hand.
As Zhao Huangchao watched Li Chang'an's sword strike sever the dragon's head, completely separating the black dragon, which he had raised for over a hundred years, his heart trembled violently, his legs went weak, and he collapsed onto a boulder by the abyss.
It's over, Longhu Mountain is finished.
Li Chang, carrying the enormous dragon head, soared a hundred feet into the air, then threw the blood-soaked black dragon head out, smashing it onto the nine golden lotuses radiating golden light in the air.
"boom!"
The entire Longhu Mountain shook violently, and the Golden Lotus of Fortune vanished in response, its immense fortune being absorbed by Li Chang'an.
The thousands of Taoist priests in Longhu Mountain all heard the strong declaration coming from Danxia Peak.
"From this day forward, Longhu Mountain will cease to exist."
Chapter 256 Nineteen Stops Chopping Down Luoyang! One Man Slays Ten Thousand!
Longhu Mountain.
The nine golden lotuses of fortune were completely absorbed by Li Chang'an, and the fortune that Longhu Mountain had nurtured for a hundred years vanished.
Heilong was also killed by Li Chang'an with a single sword strike, and the Celestial Master and his disciples of Longhu Mountain on the mountainside were all killed by Nangong Pushe alone.
With the True Dragon Subduing Demon Formation broken, Longhu Mountain was utterly destroyed.
Zhao Huangchao stared blankly at everything. Centuries of hard work had been destroyed in an instant. He was truly heartbroken and felt that life was worse than death.
But the next moment, the clouds and mist before his eyes suddenly blurred, the nine golden lotuses slowly reassembled, the dragon's roar still echoed in the abyss beneath his feet, the fortune of the entire Dragon Tiger Mountain shook the heavens, and people in the sect ascended to immortality one after another.
Then, the Li Yang Dynasty produced many famous generals, the situation turned from danger to safety, and it once again unified the world. Under the rule of several wise rulers, the country was peaceful and prosperous, and the country was stable. The Li Yang Dynasty surpassed the Qin Dynasty and the Feng Dynasty and became the strongest dynasty in history.
After killing all the Longhu Mountain disciples who had set up the formation, Nangong Pushe lightly leaped onto the clouds. There he saw Li Chang'an with his hands behind his back, a smile in his eyes, looking at Zhao Huangchao opposite him.
Zhao Huangchao, with a look of blissful ecstasy, stood on a boulder at the edge of the abyss, gesturing wildly. His face was rosy and radiant, and he muttered incantations as if he were witnessing the most beautiful sight in the world.
"He's possessed by a demon?"
"No, he became an immortal."
Since mastering the Celestial Palace Illusion technique of the Sacred Heart Manual, Li Chang'an had never had the opportunity to use it. Now, Zhao Huangchao was all alone, and his mind was shaken after the great formation was destroyed. It was the perfect time to use the Celestial Palace Illusion.
"My celestial palace illusion can draw people's consciousness into the most beautiful fantasy they want to see."
Zhao Huangchao looked satisfied and happy, and Nangong Pushe couldn't help but curl his lips, "The prince's methods are indeed clever, but he got off too easily."
The most powerful aspect of this move is that it plunges the enemy into a deep illusion, completely isolating them from the outside world. Zhao Huangchao even forgot that he was on the edge of a cliff, facing a mortal enemy like Li Chang'an.
"Then let's kill him."
Upon hearing this, Minister Nangong drew his Embroidered Winter Blade. With light steps, he treaded on clouds and arrived before Zhao Huangchao in a few strides. His blade flashed like lightning, easily severing the head of the terrestrial immortal.
As Zhao Huangchao's head and body fell into the abyss, his soul left his body at the moment of death, and only then did Zhao Huangchao realize what was happening.
Master Zhao, who was most skilled at killing in dreams, was killed by a similar method.
By the time he could see Li Chang'an's figure clearly, he had already been struck by the God-Slaying Calamity, and his soul was instantly shattered, completely scattered.
Without the Golden Lotus of Fortune, the Black Dragon of Earth Veins, the Land Immortal, and the Second-Rank Minor Grandmaster, it's only a matter of time before Longhu Mountain is replaced by other sects in the martial arts world. Hundreds or thousands of insignificant Taoist priests are not worth Li Chang'an's attention.
Li Chang'an eliminated Longhu Mountain because there were too many people with the surname Zhao in the upper echelons, and the Daoist court of Shenzhou was involved in the great struggle of the world. It was not because he had any prejudice against the Daoist sect itself.
If Longhu Mountain were to cease submitting to Liyang and instead dedicate itself to cultivating Taoism and martial arts, it wouldn't be impossible to lend a helping hand.
"Your Highness, where do we go now? Back to Liangzhou?"
"No, go to Jizhou."
Jizhou is the current base of Liang King Xu Fengnian. After leaving Lingzhou, the Northern Liang King changed his title to Liang King.
Late at night, one day later.
Li Chang'an appeared silently in the Liang Prince's mansion in Jizhou. It wasn't that the experts in Jizhou didn't notice him, but by the time they did, Li Chang'an had already entered the mansion.
As soon as they stepped into the Prince's mansion, more than a dozen Grandmasters of the First Rank surrounded them. Xu Xiao had left Xu Fengnian with few assassins, so Xu Fengnian recruited some more himself.
"Xu Fengnian, if you don't come out soon, all the experts under your command will be killed."
Li Chang'an's voice echoed throughout the entire city of Jizhou, but he did not receive a response from Xu Fengnian.
His plan was not complicated. Even if Xu Fengnian could summon his past life's Dharma body now, he still couldn't break the True Martial Demon Subduing Formation, which meant that his strength was inferior to Li Chang'an's.
Li Chang'an's goal was to defeat Xu Fengnian and Chen Diaosi of the Liyang Dynasty one by one before they officially joined forces.
Because his strength increased greatly after destroying Longhu Mountain, Xu Fengnian and Chen Diaosi were bound to join forces, and the combined strength of the two was not weak.
The sound reached the military camp outside the city, and Yuan Zuozong immediately donned his armor and left the camp, shouting, "Enemy attack! Quickly reorganize the troops and enter the city to protect the Prince's Mansion."
In Yuan Zuozong's mind, no matter how powerful a master was, he could not stop a massive army. As long as the army arrived, Li Chang'an would inevitably retreat.
Inside the Prince's mansion, the dozen or so Grandmasters of the First Rank around Li Chang'an were extremely nervous.
They knew that this Tang King Li Chang'an had killed countless immortals, who were immortals at the terrestrial level. What were they, a few grandmasters, compared to him?
Not hearing Xu Fengnian's reply, a smile appeared on Li Chang'an's lips. The kid wasn't here.
If Xu Fengnian were here, he would definitely come out. Without Xu Fengnian, the Liangwang Mansion would be at Li Chang'an's mercy.
He clenched one fist, slightly lowered his shoulder, and seemingly casually swung his fist into the air, but lightning flashed across the sky in an instant!
The Liang Prince's mansion, which had just been silent under the cover of night, was now filled with blue lightning, each bolt striking one of the people in the mansion.
Whether they were top-ranking experts, ordinary guards, or servants and maids, they were all turned into a bloody mist under the Emperor's Heavenly Thunder.
In that instant, apart from Li Chang'an, there was only one other living person left in the entire palace.
The woman in red gritted her teeth and stood on the roof of the main hall of the palace, looking eerie and tragic in the moonlight.
Luoyang is very beautiful. Even people from 800 years ago still deserve the description of "graceful and charming".
Looking at the empty palace, Luo Yang felt despair. Xu Fengnian went to Tai'an City.
After Xu Fengnian set his sights on the fortune of Longhu Mountain, he used the techniques of a Qi Refiner to mark the Golden Lotus of Fortune. After the Golden Lotus of Fortune shattered, he immediately went to Tai'an City.
The only person in the world capable of breaking the True Dragon Subduing Demon Formation of Longhu Mountain is Li Chang'an.
Therefore, Xu Fengnian must join forces with the Celestial Supervisor of the Li Yang Dynasty in order to have any chance of fighting against Li Chang'an.
With Xu Fengnian absent, there is no one in the entire city of Jizhou who can rival Li Chang'an.
Luoyang was only shown briefly before it immediately turned and sped north.
If you can't win, you can only run away.
