“The result of this collision ended in Qingqing’s defeat.”
The giant sword recounted a story, speaking with a deliberate tone.
Li Qingshan listened attentively, surprised by the vastness of Qingqing’s background.
The girl wielding the giant sword in the Dimensional Battlefield was actually hailed from a secluded family and was slain by her uncle.
“To resort to killing one’s own niece due to ideological differences?” Li Qingshan asked in shock.
“Ideological friction is often the most terrifying. After Qingqing’s death, a wisp of her soul somehow came to the mortal realm. In the end, I followed her. However, I was seriously injured in that battle and have yet to recover. I couldn’t help Qingqing, so in the end, that wisp of soul disappeared in the Human World,” The giant sword sighed, feeling very vexed.
“I didn’t expect such a thing to happen,” Li Qingshan sighed.
“I had originally forgotten about this matter, but I didn’t expect you to actually find this graveyard. After Qingqing’s demise and her uncle’s slumber, the only two remaining members of this Heaven-defying family were killed and injured. Therefore, this graveyard became an unguarded Forbidden Land,” The giant sword said softly.
“Didn’t you say that several Emperors are sleeping here?” Li Qingshan asked.
“They’ve been slumbering for hundreds of thousands of years and haven’t woken up. What’s the use?” The giant sword’s voice was low. “Among the slumbering Emperors, there is Qingqing’s grandfather. If you borrow his power, you should be able to kill the sleeping Emperors.”
“But I have no relation to him. Why would someone lend their power to me?” Li Qingshan asked in confusion.
“You do have a connection. At the last moment in the Human World, Qingqing kissed you and left her aura on you. With this, you can borrow strength,” The giant sword answered seriously.
“It’s been so many years since that kiss. Would her aura still remain?” Li Qingshan touched his lips and asked.
“Qingqing’s kiss will go deep into your soul. In the depths of your soul, it will never be erased. Qingqing’s grandfather will definitely notice it. Therefore, if you go and borrow power, you will most likely succeed,” The giant sword explained to Li Qingshan.
“It can still be like this…” Li Qingshan exclaimed.
“I’ve explained it in detail. What else do you want to ask?” The giant sword asked Li Qingshan.
After a moment of silence, Li Qingshan said, “That’s all. You just need to tell me how to borrow power. As long as I can borrow the power of an Emperor, I will definitely avenge Qingqing.”
“Qingqing’s grandfather is not far away. He has been slumbering for 200,000 years and has long become a living dead. It would be a waste not to use the Emperor’s Power. Therefore, you should go there. I believe that with your talent, you should be able to gain his approval,” The giant sword said in detail.
At first, when Qingqing gave the giant sword to Li Qingshan, it was very unwilling.
It believed that Li Qingshan had no future. His cultivation was not even that of an immortal. Although he was invincible in the Human World, the Human World was merely a small pond.
Therefore, in the beginning, the giant sword obeyed Qingqing’s order and entered Li Qingshan’s core. However, it didn’t take the initiative to communicate with Li Qingshan and appeared very aloof.
Li Qingshan didn’t force it either.
He focused on his own matters, cultivating and soaring through the heavens all the way from the Human World to the Immortal Plane soaring straight up.
It was as if a pair of wings had been inserted into his body, and he continued to soar through the Nine Heavens.
The giant sword had been silently observing Li Qingshan all along. Its impression of Li Qingshan kept refreshing. It was amazed by Li Qingshan.
Therefore, its attitude towards Li Qingshan gradually improved. In the end, during the battle at the Emperor’s Pass, it activated its remaining power and helped Li Qingshan kill the Immortal King.
“Oh right, you’re seriously injured. How can you recover?” Li Qingshan asked with concern.
“Replenish with Emperor’s origin energy and slowly recover,” The giant sword said.
Li Qingshan clicked his tongue. This was indeed the peerless Immortal Sword refined by the Heaven-defying family. It actually needed the Emperor’s origin energy to recover from its injuries.
“After borrowing the power, you will temporarily possess the power of an Emperor. In this Forbidden Land, it will be very easy to find Hua Xiangrong, ” The giant sword added.
It knew Li Qingshan’s purpose for entering here was to find Hua Xiangrong.
“Let’s go and pay our respects to Qingqing’s grandfather.” Li Qingshan stood up and walked into the distance.
Under the guidance of the giant sword, Li Qingshan avoided the dangerous Emperor’s patterns and arrived before a lake safely.
Moonlight sprinkled down, the lake surface serene and beautiful.
Under the moonlight, the surface of the lake was shrouded in mist. The mist was so thick that it was like a dream. The reflection of the distant mountains, the hazy moonlight, and the gentle breeze at night were all mixed together, blowing on an unnamed tomb.
This tomb was unremarkable. It was still a wordless monument. From afar, it looked like an unnamed short tomb.
“Are all the people from the Heaven-defying family all have wordless monuments?” When Li Qingshan saw the Wordless Monument, he thought of the Venerable he had met before and joked.
“The tomb you encountered earlier belongs to Qingqing’s mother, ” The giant sword said softly.
Li Qingshan raised his eyebrows in surprise. “She’s actually Qingqing’s mother…”
“She was a Venerable and married Qingqing’s father. I don’t know much about her. I only know that she was very powerful. After giving birth to Qingqing, she disappeared very quickly. I didn’t expect that she would be buried here in the end,” The giant sword sighed.
Qingqing’s mother was a Venerable.
She had died on the riverbank. It was the top expert of the Barbarian Clan who had brought her back and buried her here, so the giant sword didn’t know.
Now, Li Qingshan came here and met Qingqing’s grandfather..
