From the moment the Tiger Soul awakened, I became invincible.

Chapter 164 Minor Success in Divine Skill, Sword Realm Requests for Aid

Tianwu Mountain.

In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.

Over the past two weeks, everything has progressed smoothly. Although demons still occasionally appear, after losing the great demon at the peak of the True Self Realm, ordinary demons pose little threat to Tianwu Mountain.

The strength of the demon race also varies.

Most of the demons appearing in Tianwu Mountain today have only just reached the initial stage of True Qi, so their strength is nothing special.

However, everyone knows that the current calm is merely preparation for another crisis to erupt in the future.

According to the information reported back from Qian Tian, ​​the number of demons is definitely not as small as it is now, which is enough to prove that those demons are still brewing a plan that could threaten the entire human race.

However, there are currently no effective countermeasures in Tianwu Mountain or even in other surrounding areas, so we can only let things develop as they may, hoping to detect and deal with the demons in time when they make any moves. Otherwise, it will inevitably cause considerable losses to the entire territory of the human race.

During this time, Qin Wu's strength has also made a significant breakthrough. He has now completely mastered the Ape Demon Technique and has even reached the minor completion stage, all thanks to the ape-type techniques he learned before.

If it were anyone else, let alone reaching the minor success level, even just entering the basics would likely take decades, or even a lifetime, to achieve anything significant. But with the Ape Demon Technique reaching the minor success level, his strength once again experienced a surge.

Originally, Qin Wu faced immense pressure when confronting demons at the True Martial Realm. Even after his last breakthrough in strength, he was only able to contend with a true True Martial Realm expert.

But the situation is different now. He can feel the explosive power coming from his body. Not only the power, but more importantly, his defense has increased by more than one level.

Qin Wu was confident that if he were to face the same person he had been half a month ago, he could easily handle two opponents at once.

It is easy to imagine how terrifying this Ape Demon Technique is.

Moreover, not only that, his Cold Moon Sword Technique has also made progress once again. This time, the combination of the two has given him an unprecedented surge in confidence.

"Perhaps it's time to go to the Guiyuan Sword Realm again."

Qin Wu pondered this in his heart.

From beginning to end, Qin Wu never had the idea of ​​letting Shi Guantao go.

In his eyes, Shi Guangtao was already his mortal enemy.

The reason it wasn't dealt with before was because there wasn't time, and later developments in the situation didn't allow for it. Now the situation is basically stable, although there are still many hidden dangers. But in his opinion, the death of Shi Guantao shouldn't be a big problem.

However, before Qin Wu could leave, a message arrived.

Li Lingfeng found Qin Wu and then spoke.

"News has come from the front lines: our reinforcements have finally arrived at the Chaotic Pass."

Upon hearing this, Qin Wu's eyes lit up. Although he wasn't currently on the front lines, he knew exactly what the situation was like there.

Now, the demon race has launched a massive invasion, and a large number of enemies have rushed to the Chaotic Pass, causing it to almost fall several times. It even nearly fell to the ground recently, allowing a large number of demons to enter the territory of the Great Zhou.

Although they managed to repel the enemy's attack, this was enough to prove that the Great Zhou's strength was no longer sufficient to contend with those demon races.

However, the human race is not limited to the Great Zhou Dynasty; there are other dynasties as well.

However, during this period, the other dynasties did not join the battle. After all, in the eyes of those dynasties, with the Great Zhou in power, they did not need to worry about anything else, and naturally did not need to devote their strength to the Horn Millstone defense line that no one wanted to go to.

However, now, with the recurrence of the previous crisis, the other dynasties have finally realized the danger posed by the demon race.

Hearing that reinforcements from those dynasties had finally arrived, Qin Wu finally breathed a sigh of relief. If those reinforcements hadn't come, the Great Zhou probably wouldn't have been able to hold on any longer.

"How capable are the people they sent?"

Qin Wu asked.

Li Lingfeng took a deep breath and then spoke.

"What has arrived now is only the first vanguard force; the main force will likely arrive soon. However, even this vanguard force is by no means weak."

Each dynasty has sent many powerful figures, and there are already several Martial Saints gathered at the Chaotic Pass. There are countless other powerful figures as well. It seems that there shouldn't be any major problems with the three passes this time.

However, I still have some concerns. Although the demon race and our human race have been at war for many years, there have only been minor skirmishes. But recently, the demon race suddenly intensified its attacks, and I don't know why.

If such a war continues, it will not be a good thing for either the demon race or the human race.

Therefore, I am worried that there might be other conspiracies involved.

Hearing this, Qin Wu didn't know what to say. He was obviously unaware of the matter, but he actually had similar thoughts. The reason why the human and demon races had been able to maintain their current situation for so many years was because there wasn't a significant difference in strength between the two sides.

However, under these circumstances, the demon race's sudden attack led Qin Wu to a very ominous suspicion: the demon race might have produced a large number of powerful individuals, or possessed something capable of changing the course of the conflict. Otherwise, the demon race would not have chosen to completely break ties with the human race at this time.

However, these things are still too far away for Qin Wu.

Then Qin Wu spoke.

"Elder, I plan to leave in a few days."

Upon hearing Qin Wu's words, Li Lingfeng narrowed his eyes and then spoke with absolute certainty.

"Are you planning to go to the Guiyuan Sword Realm?"

He wasn't stupid. He had long been aware of the conflict between Qin Wu and Guiyuan Sword Realm, but he hadn't initially thought that Qin Wu would take action against Guiyuan Sword Realm.

However, after hearing about the Sword Qi Valley incident, he began to investigate and naturally understood that Qin Wu had long intended to go to the Returning Origin Sword Realm, but had not yet succeeded.

Now that Qin Wu has brought this up, it's highly likely that Qin Wu intends to go to the Guiyuan Sword Realm. Although he was somewhat worried about this, he couldn't say anything, since his conflict with the Guiyuan Sword Realm was almost irreconcilable. However, Li Lingfeng still spoke up afterward.

"Although Guiyuan Sword Realm has a conflict with you, I also know everything about your past. So, within Guiyuan Sword Realm, the one who actually has a conflict with you is that Raging Wave Sword Master, Shi Guantao."

This young man is not very old, and his temperament is also rather ordinary. He inherited his father's power at a young age, and under such circumstances, he is arrogant and conceited, and his actions are extremely cold. However, the entire Guiyuan Sword Realm does not seem to harbor much hostility towards you.

Moreover, the Guiyuan Sword Realm is not a weak force. As a newly emerging force after my Tianwu Mountain, the Guiyuan Sword Realm has seven Sword Masters, each of whom is a powerful True Martial Realm martial artist.

If you completely break ties with the Guiyuan Sword Realm, the pressure you'll face will likely be immense.

Qin Wu already knew all this, but he still shook his head and said.

"I have no good feelings towards the Guiyuan Sword Realm. As for those sword masters, if they don't come looking for trouble, I naturally won't go looking for trouble either. But if they do come looking for trouble, I certainly won't sit idly by and wait to die. Besides, I'm not some pushover that everyone can bully."

Back when I was just an ordinary person, I nearly died at the hands of Shi Guantao. Now, my combat strength has surpassed the True Martial Realm, enough to fight against those in the Returning Origin Sword Realm. So what if all seven of them attack at once? I'm confident I can kill them all in no time.

Qin Wu's voice was extremely cold, even filled with murderous intent. Li Lingfeng was slightly taken aback by Qin Wu's extremely confident words; he hadn't expected Qin Wu to say such a thing. However, he ultimately sighed, shook his head, and said nothing more.

After thinking for a while, Li Lingfeng spoke before leaving.

"If you've already made up your mind, then go ahead and do it. You can rest assured that Tianwu Mountain will always be your support. Although Tianwu Mountain's strength is indeed not what it used to be, it doesn't mean that Tianwu Mountain has no trump cards or connections."

Tianwu Mountain's sacrifices for the Great Zhou Dynasty were not in vain; the Martial Emperor of Great Zhou still remembers everything Tianwu Mountain has done. If there ever comes a day when you truly need it, you may come to Tianwu Mountain; Tianwu Mountain will surely protect you.

Li Lingfeng's tone was very resolute. Although their Tianwu Mountain Lord wasn't present, he showed no hesitation whatsoever. In his eyes, Qin Wu was the future of Tianwu Mountain at this moment; without Qin Wu, Tianwu Mountain would naturally have no future to speak of.

So he didn't care about anything else; he only knew one thing: if anyone wanted to kill Li Lingfeng, they would have to cross the wall of their Tianwu Mountain.

So he didn't care about anything else; he only knew one thing: if anyone wanted to kill Li Lingfeng, they would have to cross the wall of their Tianwu Mountain.

And Li Lingfeng was the first brick on this city wall.

Qin Wu took a deep breath and said nothing.

However, he had already remembered everything Li Lingfeng said.

Tianwu Mountain has never let him down, so naturally he will not let Tianwu Mountain down either.

However, just as Qin Wu was making preparations, a message suddenly arrived at Tianwu Mountain.

This caused an unexpected turn of events in his plans.

Li Lingfeng's face darkened as he looked at the Guiyuan Sword Realm disciple kneeling on one knee in the main hall.

The disciple from the Returning Origin Sword Realm spoke up.

"Elder Li, before I reached the Returning Origin Sword Realm, my strength was greatly diminished when I fought against the True Martial Realm demon race. The Thunder Sword Ancestor was seriously injured, and the Raging Wave Sword Ancestor was not strong enough."

But now, a demon of the True Martial Realm has appeared within my Guiyuan Sword Realm, and that demon has also brought along many other demons.

If this cannot be resolved, the demon will likely cause great chaos in my Guiyuan Sword Realm. At that time, Tianwu Mountain will probably also be affected. I implore the people of Tianwu Mountain to provide support.”

Upon hearing this, Li Lingfeng frowned and then spoke.

"While the strength of those in the True Martial Realm is impressive, surely you, in your Returning Origin Sword Realm, are capable of dealing with them?"

The disciple spoke with an extremely bitter tone.

"Under normal circumstances, even without the Thunderclap Sword Master, our Guiyuan Sword Realm would indeed be able to contend with him. However, that demon is powerful, clearly not someone who has just entered the True Martial Realm. With our current strength, the Guiyuan Sword Realm simply cannot contend with him. Our Guiyuan Sword Realm has already issued requests for assistance to various sects."

Li Lifeng waved his hand, telling him to leave, and then looked at Te Qinwu standing to the side.

"Junior Nephew Qin, what do you think?"

Qin Wu narrowed his eyes slightly, then spoke.

"I'm not sure if this person is telling the truth or not, but since they've already asked for help, it wouldn't be right for Tianwu Mountain not to go. After all, this request for help represents not only their Guiyuan Sword Realm, but also the entire human race."

The call for aid is not an ordinary thing, but something recognized by all the human nations. Once a call for aid is issued, it means that a crisis outside of humanity has been encountered, and all sects must put aside their past grievances and work together to deal with it.

Hearing Qin Wu's words, Li Lingfeng nodded and then spoke.

"In that case, why don't you go yourself, Junior Nephew Qin?"

"That's natural."

Qin Wu nodded directly, showing no intention of refusing. In fact, everything was going quite well as he had hoped. He had originally intended to go to the Guiyuan Sword Realm, and although it was the Guiyuan Sword Realm that had issued the distress call, he wouldn't mind going along with it to see what had happened.

If there truly are demons, then naturally they must be slain. If there are no demons, or if Shi Guantao, who is at the Guiyuan Sword Realm, has laid a trap for him, he wouldn't mind using absolute power to completely tear the trap apart and then sever Shi Guantao's head.

Qin Wu was absolutely confident in this and had already made the necessary preparations.

Although Li Lingfeng already knew about Qin Wu's thoughts, he had no worries. No one knew better than him just how strong Qin Wu was. Even ordinary True Martial Realm experts were no match for Qin Wu.

Under such circumstances, even if the Returning Origin Sword Realm was unfavorable to Qin Wu, he was confident enough that Qin Wu would be able to return alive.

At that time, Tianwu Mountain will definitely fight Guiyuan Sword Realm to the death at all costs. He believed that Guiyuan Sword Realm would not make such a foolish mistake.

Upon receiving the distress call, Qin Wu acted without hesitation, leading a contingent from Tianwu Mountain towards the Guiyuan Sword Realm. Not only Tianwu Mountain, but other surrounding forces that received the distress call also took the same action.

In an instant, forces from all over the Guiyuan Sword Realm gathered together.

……

And Li Lingfeng was the first brick on this city wall.

Qin Wu took a deep breath and said nothing.

However, he had already remembered everything Li Lingfeng said.
