Inheritor-level Showdown

Li Weiyi searched the corpses of Yuan Qi, Yuan Sheng, Lynx Demon, Chen Ying, and the unknown human martial artist at the Five Seas Realm, taking away their weapons and valuables before following Wang Daozhen's escape trail.

He was completely covered in Nightwalker's Robe, concealing Conceal Qi and remaining cautious at all times.

"They didn't even explain clearly, just left us with the words 'it's okay.' Is it okay or not?"

Li Weiyi sighed deeply, pondered carefully, and felt that in a battle at the Five Seas Realm level, the Four Great Sects should still have the upper hand, after all, they had united with many forces from outside the state. Just Tianya Ridge alone was full of powerful figures and demons.

The two groups of barbarian bandits, Coffin Mountain and the Earth Wolf King Army, are no small matter either.

In contrast, the Jiu Li Tribe only managed to send out a rather unreliable woman named Li Ling after more than half a month. The difference in their abilities was stark, and it was a cause for concern.

The grasslands are vast and boundless.

The yellow sky and black soil resemble the Mysterious Yellow Ancient Territory of mythology.

But...

"The black and yellow are the mixture of heaven and earth; heaven is black and earth is yellow. But here, why is it reversed, with heaven being yellow and earth being black?"

Li Weiyi stood atop a grassy hill, gazing at the yellow sky, a sense of unease and oppression rising within him. Even if this world wasn't Immortal Realm, it was certainly no ordinary place.

After chasing for nearly a hundred miles, Wang Daozhen's aura grew closer and closer.

Holding the Iron Book, Li Weiyi held his breath and slowly approached.

Wang Daozhen lay motionless beneath a massive ancient tree that would take six or seven people to encircle. A pool of crimson blood lay on the ground near his neck.

Upon examination, it was found that he had no pulse or breathing and was completely dead.

"There were no signs of a struggle; his neck and throat were severed instantly by a sharp weapon, leaving Wang Daozhen with no chance to fight back."

"The body temperature is still there; the person died recently."

"The Array Breaking Whip has been taken away, what a pity!"

Li Weiyi caught up, intending to subdue Wang Daozhen and then inquire about the Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors. However, his plan failed, and now he could only rely on his senses to search for them.

The faint fragrance of Li Ling still lingers in the air.

It's obvious without even guessing that it was done by her and Zuoqiu Ting.

"He's really powerful. Even a martial artist at the Second Realm of the Five Seas Realm doesn't have a chance to make a move in front of him."

Li Weiyi felt heavy-hearted, admitting that he wasn't much better than Wang Daozhen. If Zuoqiu Ting hostility or had other schemes, what were his chances of escaping alive?

The First Sequence figures of the younger generation are truly terrifying.

"We must break through to the Five Seas Realm as soon as possible."

In the past six months, he has made rapid progress, but there is still a huge gap between him and the world's top geniuses. Putting aside everything else, Li Ling's current strength is above his; in just six months, she has progressed from Earth Fire to Heaven Fire.

He is making progress, and so are others.

Taking out the Magic Tool Treasure Bottle, Li Weiyi decided to try consuming the Golden Spring. Even if it couldn't refine his Golden Meridian Lines, increasing his physical strength would still be a good thing.

Drink it down in one gulp.

After the Golden Spring entered my stomach, it gradually became scalding hot.

Li Weiyi sat cross-legged, his hands forming the Zi Wu Tai Chi Seal, Breathing and Exhaling, his ten springs of magical power surging within him, circulating through his one hundred and twenty Trace Meridians. He consciously directed the misty vapor from the Golden Spring towards one of the Silver Meridian Lines.

As time went by, that Silver Meridian Lines was tinged with a layer of golden light.

"Excellent, it's transforming. This Golden Spring's tempering ability surpasses that of the Hidden Gate's Golden Spring; it truly deserves its reputation as Immortal Realm Space."

Li Weiyi calmed his excited emotions and quickly took a second sip.

The Golden Spring in the bottle was only a thin layer; Li Weiyi drank six mouthfuls and then there wasn't a drop left.

But with just these six bites, he was able to forge two Golden Meridian Lines in the new hammer in a short period of time.

The number of Golden Meridian Lines in his body reached seventy-six.

In addition, some of the Golden Spring substance was incorporated into the bones. Although it cannot be verified, the bone strength has definitely increased to some extent.

Li Weiyi felt both happy and sad at that moment.

To his delight, this Golden Spring substance was truly wonderful; it could refine all the Trace Meridians in his body into gold in a short time and increase bone strength.

The saddest thing is, Golden Spring is gone!

If you want more, you can only go to Thirty-three Li Mountain.

But according to the Luantai Angel, entering the Thirty-three Li Mountain is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Since treasures like "Immortal Soil" and "Golden Spring" exist, they must already be controlled by major powers. Ordinary martial artists would likely be killed if they got too close.

Even if one were to manage to obtain the Golden Spring, one could not take it with them.

Just like that guy who got killed by Yuan Sheng's hammer.

What's even more frustrating is that other martial artists will surely be able to collect Golden Spring to temper their bones. Won't that put us at a disadvantage in the martial arts world?

"Forget it, no matter how good the opportunity is, it's not as important as my life. Let's go find the Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors first!"

Li Weiyi's mental power vaguely sensed that the Phoenix Wing Moth Emperor was in this Immortal Realm space, with a general direction in mind.

Following the direction he sensed, he vanished and sped away.

In the Immortal Realm, there is no day or night; the sky is always a hazy yellow. The light illuminating the world comes from the pillar of light on the horizon and the celestial clouds in the sky.

After traveling more than a hundred miles, the hills on the grassland became increasingly huge, some even reaching seven or eight hundred meters in height.

The trees gradually increased in number from sparse to abundant.

The vegetation is diverse, no longer just dark green wormwood, but also includes velvet grass, wheatgrass, shrubs, and large swathes of different species of daylilies. The misty clouds descend upon the sea of flowers on the hillside, creating a beautiful, picturesque scene.

After passing through the flower-filled mountains and misty sea, upon reaching the summit, Li Weiyi witnessed a martial arts battle that he had never seen in the past twenty years, a battle that deeply moved him.

On the open area that stretched into the distance like the back of an ox, a giant dragon coiled in mid-air. Its head, scales, and claws were clearly visible, unlike the blurry Dragon Shadow he had when he used the Yellow Dragon Ascends to Heaven.

A striking figure in Silver Robe White Tunic stood at the center of the coiled dragon, his arms waving and creating gusts of wind. The dragon swooped down, heading straight for Jiang Ning, who was wearing a veil.

Jiang Ning's graceful and ethereal figure stood in the void, with a pair of enormous white feather shadows on her back, and countless feathers formed from magical energy fluttering in the world centered around her.

A magnificent palace, towering countless feet high, flew out from the void behind her and collided with the swooping dragon.

"Boom!"

The energy of the Dharma surged and burst forth, causing mud and rocks to fly up from the mountaintop.

Even the sea of clouds at Xianxia Mountain halfway up the mountain was stirred and trembled.

Li Weiyi held his breath and concentrated. At this moment, a strong yearning for martial arts arose in his heart, like a mortal glimpsing a corner of the heavenly palace. From then on, he was no longer willing to be just a mortal.

"That figure... looks a lot like the mysterious distinguished guest who conspired with Shi Jiuzhai in Immortal Burial Town."

Li Weiyi's cultivation level is now far superior to what it used to be, and he can clearly see the figures of the two people fighting on the battlefield.

When Li Weiyi's gaze fell on the face of the man in the Silver Robe White Tunic, he couldn't help but be astonished. "Zuoqiu Ting? No, they just look exactly alike, they're not the same person at all. Could they be twin brothers?"

The man in the Silver Robe White Tunic had an exceptionally handsome face, and his entire being exuded an air of nobility and extraordinary talent. He was tall and straight, with sharp eyes and brows. This was the true spirit of a man, and there was nothing out of place about him.

"His Battle Intent transforms into a dragon; could he be the legendary inheritor of the Dragon Gate?"

Li Weiyi secretly worried about Li Ling. Zuoqiu Ting was most likely a member of the Dragon Gate, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to imagine things to such an extent. And the Dragon Gate was one of the masterminds behind the scheming to instigate chaos in Lizhou.

"Clang!"

Like a Fairy Yu untouched by worldly concerns, Jiang Ning pierced through the air with a single sword strike, accompanied by a sky full of flying feathers.

The light that erupted from the sword was as bright and swift as lightning, slicing through the Dragon Shadow and closing in on Dragon Gate Ting, the inheritor of the Long Ting.

Long Ting was protected by a layer of golden dragon scales, and he pointed out a two-foot-long bone flute in his hand.

"Bang!"

Thousands upon thousands of Sword Qi, like celestial maidens scattering flowers, spread from the center of the duel between the two to the entire mountaintop area.

Zhuang Yue, who was standing with her sword on her back, retreated rapidly, moving to a more distant part of the battlefield.

Li Weiyi's gaze fell on Zhuang Yue, sensing the aura of the Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors, whose Insect Tube were hanging on her shoulders.

"Strange, how did they manage to capture the Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors?"

Knowing that Zhuang Yue's cultivation level was very high, Li Weiyi dared not act rashly. So he activated his mental power to prepare to inscribe Insect Script and communicate with them.

Suddenly.

Footsteps sounded behind me.

Li Weiyi was startled and immediately turned around to look.

His turn caused a ripple in the air, which was immediately sensed by the stealthy Shi Shishi. Shi Shishi was startled; he hadn't expected there to be someone hiding nearby.

Invisibility Talisman?

Or is it a high-level magical artifact, the Invisibility Cloak?

The two were about eight or nine zhang apart.

Shi Shishi couldn't see Li Weiyi, but he knew where Li was hiding, so he quickly lay down and made a shushing gesture.

"I only sensed him when he was within ten feet. This little fat guy truly lives up to his reputation as the Dharma King of the Earth Wolf King Army." Li Weiyi quickly recovered from his astonishment and dared not make any further rash moves.

Shi Shishi cautiously approached, using his magical energy to transmit his voice. "I am Shi Shishi, the Dharma King of the Earth Wolf King Army. Which faction do you belong to?"

"The Wang Family of the Sui Sect, Wang Daozhen."

Li Weiyi changed her voice and replied in a low voice.

"Great, we're on the same side. Brother Daozhen, what kind of technique did you use? Your skill in concealing your Conceal Qi is truly amazing."

Shi Shishi is very interested in treasures that allow for invisibility.

"A family heirloom." Li Weiyi dared not reveal too much.

Shi Shishi shifted his gaze from Li Weiyi's direction, his bright little eyes fixed on Zhuang Yue, a smile playing on his lips, "Brother Daozhen, how about we join forces and take this opportunity to capture that woman from the Jiu Li Hidden Gate?"

"Ah?"

Li Weiyi was astonished.

I really don't understand why Shi Shishi would think Zhuang Yue is a member of the Jiu Li Hidden Gate.

But I didn't dare ask.

Asking questions would reveal your identity.

Shi Shishi, "After capturing them, we'll force them to reveal information about the Jiu Li Hidden Gate. How about we share the spoils?"

Li Weiyi wanted to probe all the forces that were dividing up Lizhou, so he said, "Such important news should naturally be relayed to everyone so that we can all work together to wipe out the Jiu Li Hidden Gate first."

"Brother Daozhen is one of the few honest people in the Sui Sect! But before taking action, whoever has more exclusive information will get more benefits during negotiations. Didn't Miss Yang tell you this principle?"

Shi Shishi is getting closer!

Li Weiyi suddenly felt uneasy and glared at Shi Shishi: "Don't come any closer! If you get any closer, I'll feel like you want to kill me first and then monopolize the information about the Jiu Li Hidden Gate."

Shi Shishi felt that Wang Daozhen shrewd and not easily manipulated, so he quickly withdrew the magical energy from his palm. "We are allies, how could allies harm each other?"

"Then you make the first move?" Li Weiyi asked.

Shi Shishi was wary of Jiang Ning, saying, "That woman who can overpower the Dragon Gate inheritor is terrifying. Let's join forces, capture her quickly, and then escape immediately..."

"Oh no, someone beat us to it!" Li Weiyi exclaimed.
