Hearing Qingfeng Li's declaration, the Sky-Breaking Monarch's eyes lit up . He had been able to sense that Qingfeng Li's physical power was formidable . He was no weaker than the Monarch himself in that respect .
The Sky-Breaking Monarch knew that it would be very difficult to kill Qingfeng Li . Even if he did manage to kill him somehow, he wouldn't too much better off himself . Even if he didn't die in the fight as well, he would be heavily wounded .
The Sky-Breaking Monarch obviously didn't want to be wounded . There were many powerful people all over the Crimson Fire Continent who were eyeing his position from the shadows .
If the Sky-Breaking Monarch were to become heavily wounded, these people would no doubt appear to kill him . Then, they would stealhis treasures, his palace, his mountain . That was why the Sky-Breaking Monarch had to maintain a certain level of strength after killing Qingfeng Li .
The Sky-Breaking Monarch stared at Qingfeng Li like he was an idiot . "You're the one who said it," he said . "I'll attack you with my spiritual attack Dharma treasure . And you're not allowed to retaliate at all . "
Qingfeng Li nodded . "I said I wouldn't retaliate . And I won't," he said . "Hurry up and attack . I'm a man of my word . "
With the force of his will, the Sky-Breaking Monarch brought out a set of bells . There were three of them, all black, and each had a tiny round ball made of Saint level materials enveloped within .
The moment the bells appeared, they sent a series of black ripples through the air, extending outward in all directions . Stones, plants, and everything else in their path was reduced to dust . This was the power of these bells .
Seeing the bells, the Dark Night Emperor, who had been resting within Qingfeng Li, was overcome with shock .
"Little brat," he voice-transmitted to Qingfeng Li, "these bells are not to be trifled with . They are called the Heavenly Saint Bells, and they have quite the backstory . In the Ancient Ages, they had once belonged to a Saint who specialized in spiritual attacks . I didn't expect them to have fallen into the hands of the Sky-Breaking Monarch . You must be careful . "
Qingfeng Li's expression was grim . From the way the Dark Night Emperor spoke, he knew that these Heavenly Saint Bells must have been powerful .
"Sir, can my own spirit energy withstand one blow from them?" Qingfeng Li asked by voice transmission .
Dark Night Emperor shook his head . "Your spirit energy is only at the peak of the Ninth level monarch realm," he replied . "This Heavenly Saint Bell is a saint level spiritual Dharma treasure . There's no way you can defend against it . Once it enters your mind-space, it would definitely tear your spirit energy into pieces . "
Qingfeng Li's expression changed . He knew now that he'd backed himself into a corner . He'd originally though that the opponent would only be able to bring out some regular Imperial level spiritual Dharma treasure . He hadn't expected to see something of the saint level in the other's hands .
Qingfeng Li thought for a moment . Ending the transmission with the Dark Night Emperor, he began to communicate with the Black-White Millstone . "Right now," he told it, "there is a Saint level spiritual Dharma treasure outside . It's about to attack me . You have to defend against its attack for me from within my mind-space . Otherwise, if my spirit energy perishes, there will be no place for you to hide either . "
Hearing this, the Black-White Millstone gave a little shake, apparently agreeing to Qingfeng Li's request .
Sensing the Black-White Millstone's movement, Qingfeng Li's eyes lit up . He knew that his greatest ally was the Black-White Millstone . As long as it agree to help, he'd be completely alright .
Lifting a hand, Qingfeng Li pointed at the Sky-Breaking Monarch with a haughty expression . "Stop yapping," he said . "Hurry up and use your Saint level Dharma treasure to attack me . I'll stand right here, and I definitely won't move . If I do, I'll admit defeat . "
The Sky-Breaking Monarch roared in laughter, a hint of killing intent surfacing in his eyes . "Since you're in such a hurry to die, let me give you a hand!"
The Sky-Breaking Monarch mobilized the spirit energy in his mind-space and poured it into the Heavenly Saint Bells . Then, he suddenly shook the three bells with his right hand . The movement made the metallic balls inside the bells collide with the metal surrounding them, emitting a crisp ringing sound .
Ding, ding, ding…
The three Heavenly Saint Bells emitted wave after wave of piercing peals . The sound was like the enraged howls of an reawakening Ancient Saint .
The moment the sounds rang out, the dimensional barrier exploded before them . Although it was only spiritual energy, it was still more than the void could withstand .
With the power of sonic spirit waves, the Heavenly Saint Bells charged toward Qingfeng Li's mind-space . Where they passed, they left a string of black holes in the dimensional barrier .
These black holes were a terrible sight to behold . Far away, self-cultivators observing the scene all felt the color drain from their faces . The weakest among them were even forced to howl in agony, blood leaking from their ears, completely unable to withstand the power of the saint level spiritual attack .
Qingfeng Li's expression was calm . There wasn't a trace of fear on his face . Rather, he looked toward the Sky-Breaking Monarch with an expression of arrogance and disdain .
Shoo!
With terrifying power, the spiritual energy from the Heavenly Saint Bells entered Qingfeng Li's mind-space . The powerful spirit energy emitted beams of black light, piercing Qingfeng Li's own spirit energy in an instant .
Qingfeng Li's face drained of color as he spat out a spurt of blood . He felt a wave of pain from within as he reached out to the Black-White Millstone deep within his mind-space . "What are you waiting for?" he asked . "Hurry up and come out . If I die, your situation wouldn't be any better . "
With a whoosh, the Black-White Millstone emerged from the depths of Qingfeng Li's mind-space and emitted twin beams of black-white light .
With extraordinary speed, the black and white rays of light enveloped the sound waves from the Heavenly Saint Bells . Then, it completely absorbed the attack .
The Heavenly Saint Bells' sonic waves struggled incessantly, trying to fight back, even trying to escape . However, under the twin beams of light from the Black-White Millstone, there was nothing it could do . Finally, it was reduced to pure spiritual energy, which was partially absorbed by the Black-White Millstone and partially absorbed by Qingfeng Li's own spirit energy .
Still standing in the same place, Qingfeng Li opened his eyes . A flash of cold light danced within as he glared toward the Sky-Breaking Monarch with a haughty air .
Seeing that Qingfeng Li was completely unharmed, the Sky-Breaking Monarch's expression changed . "How is this possible?" he said . "My Heavenly Saint Bells is a set of Saint level spiritual Dharma treasures . Their attack is on par with the spiritual attack of a Saint . Why couldn't it harm you?"
Qingfeng Li laughed . "You think that just because you have a saint level spiritual Dharma treasure, you can defeat me?" he said, voice full of disdain . "Now I'm going to destroy your saint level spiritual Dharma treasure!"
Reaching out to the Black-White Millstone deep within his mind-space, Qingfeng Li bade it appear again . This time, the Black-White Millstone cooperated and flew out from deep within Qingfeng Li's mind-space without protest .
This was because the Black-White Millstone had clearly sensed the presence of the Heavenly Saint Bells . It knew that this was a Saint level spiritual Dharma treasure, something that it craved . It knew that, after devouring these bells, its own spiritual power would be increased .
Emerging from deep within Qingfeng Li's mind-space, the Black-White Millstone morphed into twin beams of black and white light . The beams formed the S-shape in the pattern of the Eight Trigrams of Tai Chi . Charging forward with lightning speed, they appeared before the Sky-Breaking Monarch in an instant and enveloped the Heavenly Saint Bells in his hand .
