Zen Sea Observing Mist Shows Her Hand

Li Weiyi was quite surprised that Cangli arrived so quickly.

Zhao Zhizhuo wasn't sure what the problem was either, Cangli was clearly not in the camp. He quickly stepped forward. "Young Tribe Leader, this matter was Zhao Zhizhuo's doing, and has nothing to do with anyone else. I will take full responsibility for punishing him..."

I knew it was you!

Cangli's voice echoed in the valley. His gaze shifted to Zhao Zhizhuo, and he immediately saw that Zhao's cultivation had recovered. A thoughtful look appeared deep in his pupils. "Old Zhao, you are considered an elder of the clan. You have fought for honor for the Cangli Tribe, shed blood and tasted tears. How can you be so unable to distinguish right from wrong when it comes to matters of character and integrity?"

Zhao Zhizhuo didn't know why Li Weiyi had captured Qi Shanshan, but he was quite clear about Li Weiyi's character and personality, and was about to refute him.

Li Weiyi spoke first, "Cangli, you really don't know who she is? If her cultivation, mind, and methods weren't extremely dangerous, would I have resorted to such a desperate measure?"

The fundamental reason why Li Weiyi dared not confront the Zen Sea Observing Mist hidden within Qi Shanshan's body in the military camp was that Qi Shanshan had countless ways to kill him there, even without shedding a drop of blood.

If the secret of Zen Sea Observing Mist and Return were to be revealed in the military camp, the consequences would be suicidal.

Even if Zhao Zhizhuo were sent to capture him, Li Weiyi believed that the probability of him not returning was extremely high.

Zhao Zhizhuo was well aware of the dangers involved. He didn't know Qi Shanshan's trump card, but he knew that Li Weiyi was taking a huge risk and investing a massive amount of money to help him restore his cultivation. How could what she was doing be simple?

It's a simple matter; there's no need for such a complicated process, and it's not his place to do it.

Cangli said, "I know who she is, and I know where you come from. She told me everything that happened on the Bronze Ship. Li Weiyi, only by treating others sincerely can you earn their sincerity. On the ship, she saved you more than once, didn't she? She is your savior, and your methods were rather dishonorable."

This doesn't seem like something Zen Sea Observing Mist would do!

Li Weiyi looked at Qi Shanshan, her mind filled with doubts.

Cangli already knew the secrets of the Bronze Ship, so it seemed that there was nothing wrong with mentioning the four words "Zen Sea Observing Mist".

He said, "Did she also tell you the secret of the Zen Sea Observing Mist's misty spirit parasitizing your body?"

Cangli was clearly unaware of this matter, his brows furrowing slightly. "Which Zen Sea Observing Mist?"

"In the Lingxiao Shengjing, is there anyone else who dares to use this name?" Li Weiyi asked.

Qi Shanshan moved between the two and said irritably, "Actually, it's just a misunderstanding! The only thing I can tell you for sure is that I don't know if that White Bone Demon is still hiding somewhere inside me. If she really is, wouldn't Cangli know? She might have already left!"

Li Weiyi had to capture Qi Shanshan because he wanted to know if Zen Sea Observing Mist possessed the ability to leave her body and be exposed to the world.

If it weren't inside Qi Shanshan's body, he would have a target to lock onto, and many of his doubts would be resolved.

Cangli was naturally extremely wary of the legendary Ancient Son of Heaven, and said, "I can tell you clearly that if any spirit dares to parasitize Shan Shan's body, I will make it vanish into nothingness."

"I don't believe you can see through Zen Sea Observing Mist's methods. I also don't believe that someone who has been moved by emotions could be so ruthless," Li Weiyi said.

Based on what Zen Sea Observing Mist said on the Bronze Ship, Li Weiyi knew that once her cultivation recovered, it would be the end of his life.

Blood and soul will be completely devoured by her.

The only chance of survival is to eliminate her before she can make a move.

This is a life-or-death battle against time. Even though Zen Sea Observing Mist is not powerful enough at present, the Ancient Son of Heaven's abilities and the resulting sense of intimidation and crisis are unmatched by any open enemy.

She doesn't act unless absolutely necessary, but once she does, Li Weiyi doesn't believe her naive skills will allow her to escape unscathed.

Qi Shanshan returned to Cangli's side. "It was all a misunderstanding caused by that White Bone Demon. Li Weiyi, a kid who should still be a sophomore in college, what bad intentions could he possibly have? Let's just leave it at that!"

"Don't concern yourself with this!"

Cangli stared intently at Li Weiyi, his arm trembling, and his silver spear suddenly erupted with materialized magical energy, transforming into towering waves that filled the entire canyon and surged towards Li Weiyi.

Sand and stones flew everywhere, and vegetation was uprooted.

"If you do something wrong, you must pay the price."

"Splash!"

Li Weiyi felt the scene before him suddenly change, and he lost his balance, as if he were in a vast ocean with huge waves that were about to tear him to pieces.

Zhao Zhizhuo rushed forward immediately, but was knocked away by Cangli with a flick of his sleeve, his body crashing into the rock wall with a thud.

"Clang!"

Li Weiyi took three steps back to regain his footing, then drew the Yellow Dragon Sword without hesitation and gripped it tightly in his hand.

The magical energy of the Five Seas Realm poured into the sword.

The Yellow Dragon Sword underwent an unprecedented and dramatic transformation. Dense scales grew on its brass blade, and a dragon's Dragon Roar echoed within the sword, reverberating among the mountains.

"Taiyi Opens the Sea!"

His eyes were sharp, he stood in a bow stance, his feet sinking into the ground, and slashed out with his sword.

"Aww!"

A bright Dragon Shadow flew out along with the Sword Qi, splitting the overwhelming wave of magical energy in two.

The dragon's head materialized, its roar deafening, and flew straight towards Cangli.

Cangli let out a soft exclamation, and a spherical wall of magical energy flew out from his body, shattering the dragon's head.

Although he only intended to punish him slightly as a warning, he only mobilized a small amount of magic power, but it was broken and counterattacked in front of him, which was really beyond his expectations.

According to Qi Shanshan, Li Weiyi had only been cultivating for a little over half a year.

How is that possible?

It's seven miles away from here.

Chen Qianchi, a powerful cultivator from the Chen family at the Dao Seed Realm, sensed an unusual fluctuation of magical energy and heard Dragon Roar's roar following closely behind. He immediately stopped and made a hand gesture.

Behind them, in the dense forest, the countless "Ironclad Army" soldiers of the Three Chen Palace, clad in Iron Cloth Battle Robe, all Conceal Qi, slowly bowed, and listened attentively to the next instruction.

"It's Cangli's magical energy fluctuations! The entire army should activate the runes on their Iron Cloth Battle Robe, transform into mist, and sneak over to take a look," Chen Qianchi said.

This army was the Shadow Battalion of the Ironclad Army, which had circled around from the Netherworld of the Departed on the other side of the Mang Mountain Range. They planned to lie in ambush in the dense forest Yaoguan City and launch a surprise attack at the crucial moment.

As countless runes lit up in the forest, their power resonated mysteriously, and all the soldiers vanished into the forest, transforming into a thin mist that made no sound and emitted no aura, spreading towards the canyon.

Li Weiyi never expected that after reaching the Five Seas Realm, activating the Yellow Dragon Sword would have such explosive power, even stronger than the attack power of the Evil Camel Bell and the Black Iron Seal.

"Cangli, if you are so arrogant and don't believe me, be careful not to lead the Li family to utter ruin. Even if the Zen Sea Observing Mist isn't on her, we will surely find some traces of it on her. You'd better tell your father or your mother about this."

Li Weiyi offered this advice and prepared to leave, even if he were to die at the hands of the Zen Sea Observing Mist, he would have no choice but to accept it.

Who told me I'm not as skilled as others today?

"Old Zhao, let's go!"

"Da da!"

The heavy thud of hooves and the powerful aura of a strange beast came from the valley in the direction of Yaoguan City.

Accompanied by the melodious sound of wind chimes, the enormous figure of the beast crashed through the trees blocking its path and appeared before everyone's eyes.

It is Cangli's mount.

The Zouwu beast, resembling a white tiger!

Its eyes shone brightly, and its body was so large that it resembled a moving house; the ground trembled slightly with every step it took.

"You should trust him! He's never been a reckless person. If I hadn't put so much pressure on him, why would he have taken such a risky move?"

Li Ling stood on the top of the Zuowu beast, with long straight legs and the word "king" on her feet. She was wearing a red dress as bright as blood, and an armor on the outside. She had a white bone wind chime hanging around her waist, and her long hair was flying in the air. She had the aura of an ancient emperor who was all alone.

The Zouwu beast, originally fierce and of noble blood, was now so suppressed that it dared not even roar.

The flower ornament between her brows shimmered, and her eyes held both an aggressive, disdainful air and a profound, unfathomable mystery.

She has Li Ling's appearance.

But everyone knows that she is not Li Ling at this moment.

"Could it truly be Zen Sea Observing Mist?"

Zhao Zhizhuo broke free from the cliff face, utterly shocked by what he saw.

Previously, Li Weiyi had mentioned Zen Sea Observing Mist many times. Not only did Cangli not believe it, but even he, the person who trusted Li Weiyi the most, did not believe it, thinking that Li Weiyi must have made a mistake in judgment this time.

Until this moment...

He was almost so overwhelmed by the aura emanating from Li Ling that he knelt down and kowtowed before he finally believed her.

"Just as I thought."

Li Weiyi stared intently at the approaching "Li Ling," this thought having lingered in his mind for a long time, and now it all became clear. All the strange occurrences of the past now had a reasonable explanation.

But the fact that "Li Ling" came so openly shows that she wanted to confront everyone, which indicates that she was very confident.

This is a huge problem!

Cangli never imagined that a spirit could actually possess one of his family members.

He didn't care who the deceased was; whether it was Zen Sea Observing Mist or Ancient Son of Heaven, it was a capital offense.

Cangli's eyes flashed with intense killing intent as he raised his silver spear high, a low, resonant tiger's roar echoing from within him...

The Ancient Son of Heaven's Aura surged from within Li Ling's body, suppressing him and preventing him from releasing the White Tiger Battle Intent. He was forced to retreat repeatedly. Zen Sea Observing Mist seemed to want to crush his spirit and will with its gaze.

Cangli, located in the eye of the storm, gritted his teeth and used his silver spear to support his body, preventing him from kneeling down.

He knew that the other party was merely a deceased spirit, and her true cultivation level was unlikely to be too high. As long as he could break through the imperial pressure contained within her remnant soul, he would surely be able to fight her.

Even defeat it.

Seeing Li Weiyi Cangli was unable to even make a move under the suppression of the Ancient Son of Heaven's aura in the Zen Sea Observing Mist, Li Wei's heart sank to the bottom. He secretly regretted that he had acted too late against Qi Shanshan. If he had acted earlier, he would have already locked onto the true form of the Zen Sea Observing Mist. How could he have nurtured such an invincible female demon?

"Da da!"

The Zouwu mythical beast stepped in front of the group.

Li Ling's gaze fell on Li Weiyi, and continuing her previous statement, her tone was indifferent. "But there is indeed a considerable misunderstanding between us, a lack of trust between us, which has led to this situation. Li Weiyi, if I wanted to kill you, I would have more than ten chances. Do you admit it?"
