Successive Kills
In the forest, the trees were charred black.
The Young Marquis was filled with shock and rage. How could it be possible that the three elders had been killed by the enemy in such a short time?
Even if a martial artist at the Seventh Heaven the Dao Seed Realm is no match for a powerful opponent, they have many life-saving methods that can be purchased at great expense. In most cases, as long as they are determined to escape, they can even flee from figures at the eighth or Ninth Heaven.
It's a powerful weapon!
The opponent is carrying a powerful weapon.
The Young Marquis observed the lightning marks on the ground, struggling to suppress his anger and remain rational. He released his magical energy and Dao Heart Manifestation to prevent the enemy from escaping, while waiting for his own experts to arrive and join forces to hunt them down.
The Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors not only took away three Dao Fruits, but also two well-preserved boundary bags.
Li Weiyi collected the Dao Fruit so that he could buy Thousand-Year Elixir for them in the future.
A single Dao Fruit costs at least a million Spring Coin, and the Dao Fruit Pills refined from them are precious secret medicines for Dragon Seed Dao Cultivators.
Only when war breaks out can one kill experts from the Demon Kingdom with impunity. In the past, killing Dao Fruit expert from another major power would inevitably lead to investigation and even the pursuit of Longevity Realm Giants.
War, though brutal, also presents an opportunity for some to rise rapidly; crisis and opportunity coexist.
Li Weiyi put away the Dao Fruit and the Boundary Bag, and with his mental power, he sensed six other figures moving rapidly within ten miles, forming a fan shape to surround him.
Using his magical energy, he picked up the three Seventh-Rank Hundred-Character Artifact spears from the ground and rushed out at high speed.
If surrounded by a group of experts, Li Weiyi alone would not be able to defeat them. His trump cards and techniques are dwindling; the battle has already begun, and the road ahead is fraught with peril. He must conserve them.
A single piece of Seventh-Rank Hundred-Character Artifact can often fetch a million Spring Coin.
"Stop him!"
The Young Marquis shouted and gave chase.
Above the treetops, the massive body of the Wind Chasing Beast swooped down.
It was enveloped in a layer of protective magical energy several feet thick, and the fierce winds were so strong that even the slightest touch would turn the boulder into dust.
Li Weiyi had no intention of confronting it head-on. Stepping on the Yellow Dragon Projection, he ascended into the sky step by step, flying above the trees. Beneath his feet, the entire forest had been flattened by the Wind Chasing Beast.
"Boom!"
"Whoosh!"
The sounds of bowstrings and flying swords cutting through the air came from two different directions, indicating that two powerful figures were attacking from several miles away.
The arrows burned with crimson flames, and the white flying swords were wrapped in scriptures, forming two beams of light, one red and one white.
In the void, Li Weiyi used a footwork resembling cyan smoke to dodge. The next moment, he darted into the dense forest from which the white flying sword emerged, meeting it head-on at top speed.
Being targeted by so many powerful figures from the Demon Kingdom, escape is out of the question.
We must kill as many as possible, before the encirclement is fully formed.
The Young Marquis rushed over, very worried, and shouted, "Yi-mei, be careful! This man is carrying a heavy weapon!"
In a forest full of ice, snow and thorns, Li Weiyi encountered Luo Yi, the daughter of the Marquis Divine Wing. A mile apart, Li Weiyi was the first to use the Ash Extinguishing Finger Technique.
"Whoosh!"
The crimson-gold finger-force beam, scorching and powerful, pierced through the dense forest.
Along the finger-strength path within a mile, all the vegetation was set ablaze.
Seeing the opponent's fierce approach, Luo Yi immediately stopped. Her ancestral energy surged wildly, transforming into a cloud of blood mist. The Blood Handprint Armor on her body released more than nine hundred scriptures, imprinting them onto her skin.
As she struck out with her palm, a bloody handprint flew out from her soft armor and collided with the finger force that had traveled a mile in.
"Boom!"
The bloody handprint exploded.
Luo Yi's eyes widened in surprise, and with agile movements, she dodged to the right.
The opponent's Daoist arts were exquisite, the heat waves were overwhelming, and the penetrating power was astonishing; he was by no means an ordinary person.
Li Weiyi rapidly approached the Golden Crow Flame emanating from his body, which grew brighter and brighter, igniting all vegetation and melting ice and snow into mist wherever they passed.
The distance is fifteen zhang.
Li Weiyi leaped up like a divine ape, thrusting his Staff Spear of All Things through the air like a blazing sun, a blinding beam of fire erupting from its tip.
"Clang!"
Luo Yi reached out into the air and retrieved her flying sword.
With a single sword strike, hundreds of Sword Qi flew out together.
"Boom!"
After their initial clash, Luo Yi parried with her sword, retreating three zhang (approximately 10 meters) backward.
His entire body's magical energy was almost completely dispersed.
Just as she regained her footing, a golden, fiery divine tree descended from mid-air. Its branches and leaves were cast from gold, and its flames were comparable to Major Technique, melting gold and iron, shattering the protective blood energy and scriptures of her Blood Handprint Armor.
Luo Yi's tall, curvaceous figure was thrown out.
Li Weiyi knew the importance of a swift victory. His movements were as fast as a blur as he swung his spear through the air, striking her in the waist and abdomen.
The sound of bones breaking rang out, Luo Yi crashed heavily to the ground, blood flowing from her seven orifices.
"Stop!"
"Insolence! Lingxiao Martial Cultivator, you're courting death!"
A series of urgent and angry shouts came from the forest, followed by the five Dao Heart Manifestation pressing down from different directions to stop Li Weiyi.
"Pfft!"
Li Weiyi had no intention of taking the hostage; he pierced Luo Yi's neck with a spear, instantly decapitating her.
There was no time to retrieve the Dao Fruit and the Boundary Bag, nor to retrieve the Blood Handprint Armor; all sorts of attacks were already coming at them.
The ancient forest, ignited by the Golden Crow Flame, was filled with smoke and the sound of whistling flight could be heard.
A Mind Master unleashed Talisman Rain, at least a hundred of them, which flew swiftly like a stream.
The Mind Master's true form was hidden behind an ancient redwood tree in the distance, riding on the back of a deer-like beast, his robes made of talismans.
Three Old Man of the Blood Wing Clan swooped down from mid-air.
Amidst the blood-red clouds, three figures each held a black battle flag embroidered with blood-red wing patterns, forming a battle formation.
The Formation Disk is thirty zhang in diameter.
Between the Formation Disk and the ground, a rapidly spinning tornado raged, capable of whipping up massive boulders weighing thousands of pounds.
Upon seeing Luo Yi's Decapitated Corpse, the Young Marquis roared in fury, abandoning all reason and recklessly unleashing his magical energy to charge forward.
Li Weiyi retreated rapidly, his arm swung in a circle, activating the internal scriptures of the three Seventh-Rank Hundred-Character Artifact spears wrapped in magical energy, sending them flying towards the fastest Wind Chasing Beast, and the Young Marquis.
They cannot be surrounded.
We must firmly grasp the initiative in the battle, and use the speed advantage of the talismans and the Provincial Governor's Official Robe to defeat them one by one, employing a kite-like fighting style.
He mobilized his magical energy, causing the Provincial Governor's Official Robe to flutter.
"Whoosh!"
Strands of purple light, like silk threads, emanated and enveloped the entire body.
Li Weiyi, like a swimming fish, used the power of his official robes to break free from the suppression of the Dao Heart Manifestation and rushed towards the Mind Master in the distance.
"Aww!"
The Son of Heaven Dragon Soul, over a hundred meters long, flew out from the rank badge on the chest of the official's robe and collided with the rain of yellow talisman swords.
"Trying to defeat them one by one? You underestimate the cultivators of my Blood Wing Clan." A resounding voice rang out from the front.
In front of the white, misty dragon soul, the soil, pebbles, and trees on the ground suddenly rose tens of meters high, transforming into a mountain-like earthen wall, with scriptures and magical energy floating on the wall.
The opponent used a powerful Daoist technique.
Standing atop the dragon soul, Li Weiyi had no time to stop or activate the Spatial Power of his official robes. His eyes suddenly sharpened, and he raised his spear in both hands to meet the attack.
"Boom!"
Amidst the roar of Dragon Roar, the earthen wall, tens of meters high, was smashed through and torn apart.
The young figure who used the Dao technique was a disciple of the Transcendent Realm, a successor at the peak of the Seventh Heaven the Dao Seed Realm, whose combat strength was comparable to some martial cultivators at the eighth level.
He looked at the charging misty dragon, momentarily stunned by the Son of Heaven's Might, then his eyelids tightened, and he threw out a wheel-shaped magical artifact.
"This person is definitely suspicious. His official robes are a rare and precious magical artifact, something even Longevity Realm Giants might not possess. Quickly go back and inform the Marquis that he's a big fish that escaped from the Lingxiao Palace."
On the wheel-shaped magical artifact, more than a thousand scriptures flickered, expanding to the size of a wheel. Its flames burned, releasing vortex energy, which sent the misty dragon soul flying diagonally, its body disintegrating into a large part.
Li Weiyi leaped up first, his eyes quickly scanning the surroundings. He saw the Young Marquis, the Wind Chasing Beast, and the three masters in the battle formation closing in from all directions.
With such a lineup, even a martial artist at the Ninth Heaven Dao Seed Realm would have to spin and retreat.
Li Weiyi took out a talisman and stuck it to his body.
It was one of the three life-saving talismans that Taishi Yu gave him before the battle at Six Thoughts Zen Temple, known as the "Protective Talisman".
Protective Talisman personally crafted by Nine-Star Mind Master is naturally of extremely high quality.
"Boom!"
Li Weiyi swooped down and thrust out his spear, colliding with the Mirror Light Shield Technique erected by the Blood Wing Clan's transcendent disciple.
The transcendent disciple, holding the shield seal with both hands, took a step back, having roughly assessed Li Weiyi's strength. "His cultivation isn't particularly formidable; he's only able to exert his power by relying on the heavy weapon he carries... Ah..."
The disciple screamed in agony as a sharp blade suddenly appeared and severed the artery in his neck, causing blood to gush out.
It's Seven Phoenixes!
Qi Feng, with a body as small as a speck of dust, stealthily approached and, taking advantage of the moment when he was fully focused on defending against Li Weiyi's attack, successfully launched a sneak attack.
The fastest of the Five Phoenix followed closely behind.
A foot-long wing sliced through the left calf of the disciple.
With their positions breached, the Chaoran disciples were unable to continue fighting Li Weiyi with all their might, and used their escape techniques to retreat rapidly into the distance.
In the blink of an eye, they were already three miles away.
Li Weiyi ignored the attacks coming from all directions, his Protective Talisman amulet shield remaining strong, unbreakable by the demons. He pursued with all his might, using spatial teleportation, the "Forward" technique, and every other means to catch up with the transcendent disciple.
One chased the other, traversing mountains and ridges, the two clashed more than ten times in succession.
Sweep away the mountains and forests, shatter the cliffs.
The disciple was bleeding profusely from his neck and calves, roaring repeatedly, completely in a frenzied, desperate state. If he could just hold on for a few more breaths, he could save his life.
A beast's roar echoed.
The Wind Chasing Beast was the fastest, and its massive body had already appeared behind Li Weiyi.
"Bang!"
Li Weiyi disregarded everything, neither fleeing nor dodging, and swung his spear, smashing the head of that extraordinary disciple open like a watermelon.
"Bang!"
The next instant, Li Weiyi was struck by the claws of the Wind Chasing Beast, his body flying more than ten feet away before tumbling and rolling.
The Protective Talisman on his body withstood dozens of attacks from the enemy, but finally succumbed and burst like a bubble.
The talisman turned into powder.
"Form ranks!"
Li Weiyi stood up and struck the ground with his spear.
Star trail patterns intertwined and coiled around his body, and a complex Formation Disk materialized.
Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors, like stars, circled around him, flying along with the Formation Disk.
"Boom!"
The Wind Chasing Beast attacked again, its seven- or eight-meter-long giant claws unleashing terrifying power as they collided with the Formation Disk. Instantly, the ground beneath the Formation Disk cracked and collapsed, and the mountain trembled slightly.
Li Weiyi remained motionless, using the formation to withstand the attack.
"Whoosh!"
The Purple Sky Lei Seal was raised above his head and flew out from the Formation Disk.
Suddenly, thunder rumbled, and dozens of thick bolts of lightning spread in all directions.
The giant claws of the Wind Chasing Beast were shattered and mangled by the seal, which was several meters in size, and it couldn't withstand it at all. The lightning bolt, as thick as a bowl, charred its belly, and blood flowed like a waterfall from its feathers.
The Wind Chasing Beast was severely injured. With a high-pitched scream, it spread its wings and flew away, escaping back to the county town where the Marquis Divine Wing lived, more than two hundred miles away.
The Young Marquis, the Mind Master riding a deer, and the three Blood Wing Clan Old Man holding array flags were all powerful figures in their clans. Some were the oldest in their clans, invincible among those under sixty years old. Others had cultivated for a hundred years, surviving countless battles and accumulating immense power.
But at this moment, they were all terrified of Li Weiyi!
He's absolutely ferocious! How could such a young killing god exist in the Lingxiao Shengjing?
"Is it a high-grade Thousand Character Artifact, or Myriad-character Artifact? How could he possess such a priceless treasure?"
"Let's go! Let's go together, we can't be alone anymore."
The Young Marquis looked extremely wary, then joined the other four and quickly retreated.
