No Longer Hiding

"Fifty miles is a short distance with the speed of the Divine Speed Talisman. A round trip won't take too long. We can take the risk and try it."

Li Weiyi affixed the last Protective Talisman given to him by the Hidden Lord to his body, and then took out the Ten Thousand Mile Divine Speed Talisman and hid it in his sleeve, just in case.

The dangers outside are beyond the reach of Dao Seed Realm Martial Cultivator.

But no one knows if another Longevity Flower will ever bloom; all we can control is the present moment. When it's time to fight, we must fight.

Once the storm outside had subsided somewhat, Li Weiyi retrieved the crimson gourd, wrapped himself in the Thousand Character Artifact Cloak, and rushed out through the array's Light Veil at Fengshi Reef.

His action startled many martial arts practitioners on the island.

"Cultivation is truly a path that defies the heavens; even a peerless genius like Li Weiyi has to fight to the death for it."

"He has to take the risk; only in this way can the Wind Mansion Dragon Seed break through to the Longevity Realm."

"Immortality... I will fight for it too!"

Spurred on by Li Weiyi's actions, hundreds of figures rushed out from Fengshi Reef.

They were unwilling to merely absorb the Six-clawed Immortal Dragon Qi and sought an opportunity to change their fate.

They knew all too well that beneath the feet of every Longevity Realm Giants lay the bones of hundreds and thousands of defeated individuals. But they were unwilling to live a life of mediocrity; they would either die here or fight their way out of a different way of life.

The Divine Speed Talisman's Talisman Light flashed on Li Weiyi's chest as he sped westward.

The towering waves of the sea have disappeared. In their place are wide cracks. The water level in this 300-mile stretch of sea, which is covered by the Nine Dragon Locking Pillars, is dropping rapidly and is about to turn into a dried-up sea.

The number of figures on the sea far exceeded Li Weiyi's expectations.

He underestimated the significance of the word "immortality" in the minds of other cultivators. Not everyone can obtain the Longevity Pill, not everyone is born Young Son of Heaven, and breaking through realms is not so easy.

Demon Race, the Du'e Temple, the Dao Palace... powerful figures from all sides all aspire to further enhance their talents and become Above All Others.

The fragrance of the Longevity Flower permeated the sea.

In Li Weiyi's vision, the majestic and dilapidated Dragon City Mirage reappeared, situated on the edge of a crack in a waterfall hundreds of feet wide. The tricolor radiance of the Longevity Flower emanated from the mirage.

"Another Dragon City Mirage. Why does the Longevity Flower always grow alongside it?"

"During the past few months, when the Dragon City Mirage appeared, did the Longevity Flower also emerge?"

Li Weiyi is the martial arts practitioner who is closest to the Dragon City Mirage, but he is not the only one.

Figures appeared in several other directions. They used Major Technique- level Evasion Dao Technique to reach the destinations at speeds comparable to those of Divine Speed Talisman talismans.

"It's Li Weiyi from the Lingxiao Shengjing. He's too fast; we'll be a step behind him."

"Shoot him!"

"Let's attack together and stop him!"

Li Weiyi was already well-known among the various factions, so he was recognized at a glance.

There's no way around it; his record is terrifying. He's someone who has fought against two of the Dao Palace's true disciples and escaped unscathed.

Now, everyone's first reaction upon encountering him is not to fight him alone, but to join forces to deal with him. It's like the various forces encountering Sheng Wulian and Si Wuyan.

The greatest respect and reverence for the strong is to unite all forces that can be united to surround and kill them.

"Swish! Swish..."

Three arrows and two magical artifacts, spanning several miles, attacked Li Weiyi from different directions.

Each arrow was fired from a powerful Thousand Character Artifact Bow.

Li Weiyi couldn't ignore it, so he used the Clear Void Cicada Evasion Step to shift his body and dodge them one by one.

One booming sound after another rang out beside them as arrows and magical artifacts shattered the mirage.

Because of this delay, two figures approached the Longevity Flower before Li Weiyi.

They were wearing the Daoist robes and magical artifacts of the Du'e Temple, and were the two chief experts of the Ninth Heaven.

A person went to pick flowers.

One man raised his sword above his head with both hands, his internal energy transforming into a vast river. Thousands of sword-shaped scriptures flew out from his sword, slashing fiercely at the Hong Ling Li Weiyi had thrown from two miles away.

With a single slash, a thousand swords flew out like a surging tide.

"Boom!"

The Hong Ling shattered all the sword-shaped scriptures, colliding with the battle sword in his hand.

The chief monk of the Du'e Temple felt the Hong Ling, as light as gauze, crash down on him like a mountain, sending him flying backward, his arms wracked with excruciating pain. He roared, "I can't stop it! It's coming!"

Li Weiyi covered the two-mile distance in an instant, flying over the head of the Du'e Temple, and striking the flower-picking martial artist from afar with a finger.

It was Compassionate Sail Opening Light.

With concentrated finger strength, the beam of light shot out with a whistling sound.

The chief disciple of Du'e Temple, who was only a step away from the Longevity Flower, was in great pain and dared not take Li Weiyi's finger strike head-on. He had no choice but to temporarily give up picking the flower and dodge to the side.

"Whoosh!"

The force of the finger pierced through the mirage, causing huge waves to splash up on the sea below.

Li Weiyi used Hong Ling to wrap the Longevity Flower.

A beam of blue light, as thick as a bucket, flew from the water, its power overwhelming and domineering.

The enormous head of the Three-eyed Flood Dragon rose from the water a hundred feet away, beams of light shooting out from its third eye.

It is the second strongest under the command of the Prince Mingjiao, having awakened the bloodline of Ancient Immortal Giant Beast from its ancestor. The third eye between its brows is its Innate Dao Technique.

On Moon Dragon Island, it once joined forces with Bai Yeqing to attack Li Weiyi and Yao Yin.

Li Weiyi held a Hong Ling ribbon in one hand and formed Swastika Symbol Imprint with the other, taking the brunt of a beam of light as thick as a water bucket. The impact sent him staggering backward.

Seeing this rare opportunity, the two chief disciples of Du'e Temple launched a surprise attack from the left and right.

They worked in perfect harmony; one thrust his sword into Li Weiyi's heart, while the other used a grappling technique to snatch the Longevity Flower from the Hong Ling ribbon.

Facing enemies on three sides, each one was an absolute master.

Li Weiyi remained calm and composed, using the Yellow Dragon Ascends to Heaven technique to pull the Longevity Flower with Hong Ling and soar into the sky, thus deflecting the Three-eyed Flood Dragon and the sword aimed at his heart.

The next instant, he swooped down and unleashed the Purple Sky Lei Seal.

Lightning completely enveloped the area below, and tens of thousands of scriptures were imprinted on the sea surface.

The two chief disciples of Du'e Temple were visibly shocked and raised their magical artifacts to defend themselves, but the artifacts were shattered by the Purple Sky Lei Seal. Both were seriously injured and abandoned the Longevity Flower, immediately fleeing into the distance.

The Three-eyed Flood Dragon unleashed a blue-black wind and Wind Thunder Banner, blocking most of the power of the Purple Sky Lei Seal. It roared, "Give me a single petal, and I'll let you go. Otherwise, once the others arrive, it's hard to say who will get the petal."

Li Weiyi remained silent, a three-colored psychic armor appearing on his body. He plunged into the sea of lightning, combining internal martial arts with external psychic power. With a single palm strike, he sent the massive body of the Three-eyed Flood Dragon flying.

"Clang!"

The Yellow Dragon Sword flew out of the Wind Mansion, landed in his hand, and unleashed a long river of Sword Qi.

"Pfft!"

A cloud of blood mist burst forth from beneath the scales of the Three-eyed Flood Dragon, which had been severely wounded by a sword strike, letting out a deafening roar.

Its scales are highly defensive, covered with scriptures, and cannot be broken by Sword Qi alone.

This is why it so desperately wants to cultivate the Longevity Body; no matter how hard its scales are, its internal structure cannot withstand the shock.

Demonic beasts value physical cultivation far more than human martial arts practitioners.

Li Weiyi desperately wanted to kill the Three-eyed Flood Dragon. Only by killing it could he make the next martial artist who wanted to deal with him and Yao Yin think twice and consider the consequences.

If the attackers don't pay the price, they will only become more brazen.

"Whoosh!"

A bright blade of light slashed down from above Li Weiyi's head, its momentum completely locking onto him.

The opponent's strike was resolute.

The magical weapon, the battle blade, possessed immense power, cleaving through the mirage and creating vortexes of energy.

Li Weiyi had already sensed it and swung his sword upwards. The Dragon Roar's roar from the sword carried for dozens of miles, sharp enough to pierce the eardrums of some martial arts practitioners.

The one who ambushed him was Ye Cang from the Saints Learning Sea.

Ye Cang's figure emerged from his concealment, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

As the swords clashed, he was thrown backward, his tiger's mouth split open and blood flowed out. He was shocked and stunned by Li Weiyi's powerful sword strike.

Ye Cang quickly discerned the clues; the other party had employed a combination of martial arts and spiritual power, which wouldn't be as strong if relying solely on martial arts. He exclaimed in shock, "You are Liu Fengshu, the one who killed Huo Xin?"

Li Weiyi's tri-colored psychic armor revealed his psychic aura, but he didn't care. After storing the Longevity Flower in his Wind Mansion, he prepared to leave immediately.

More powerful individuals are on their way to Mirage Dragon City; if they don't leave, they will inevitably be besieged.

Ye Cang shouted to the Three-eyed Flood Dragon: "Neither of us is his match, but if we join forces, we will surely defeat him. Use your strongest methods to kill Li Weiyi, and the reward will be plentiful."

Even with the help of the Three-eyed Flood Dragon, Ye Cang wasn't confident he could kill Li Weiyi, but the other three experts from the Saints Learning Sea were already on their way. As long as they could hold out until they arrived, even if Li Weiyi had three heads and six arms, he would die here today.

"Boom!"

Li Weiyi was surrounded and attacked. Holding a sword in one hand and a silk ribbon in the other, she fought against the incredibly strong Three-eyed Flood Dragon and the swift Ye Cang.

The Wind Thunder Banner and the Purple Sky Lei Seal clashed, while the Yellow Dragon Sword and the Battle Blade clashed.

Li Weiyi didn't want to leave; it was just that six or seven top figures had already gathered around the battlefield, including peak Ninth Heaven experts and chief Ninth Heaven experts.

They dared not engage in combat at that level, but they dared to fire arrows from the perimeter to prevent Li Weiyi from leaving.

"Bang!"

Ye Cang staggered backward, a half-foot-long horizontal sword wound appearing on his abdomen, bleeding profusely and injuring his internal organs.

"Ouch..."

The Three-eyed Flood Dragon's head was struck by the Purple Sky Lei Seal, causing its scales to collapse, its head to deform, and half of its body to turn charred black.

If it weren't for the protective treasures that neutralized most of the attack, he would have died from that blow, his head turning into bloody mud.

Li Weiyi seized this opportunity, and Heaven Sword Talisman made from Transcendent Bone flew out from between his eyebrows.

The sword light tore through most of the Mirage Dragon City in an instant, pierced Ye Cang's abdomen, and then pierced the body of the Three-eyed Flood Dragon.

Of course, more than one Heaven Sword Talisman was forged.

If only one copy was made, he wouldn't have mentioned it to Princess Dengfeng.

Of course, the Heaven Sword Talisman is only equivalent to a single strike from a martial artist at the First Realm of the Longevity Realm. It must be used at crucial moments to achieve its fatal effect.

After all, it's not easy for a martial artist at the First Realm of the Longevity Realm to kill experts like the Three-eyed Flood Dragon and Ye Cang.

Ye Cang maintained his stance of wielding the knife with both hands, but his abdomen was now completely empty, pierced through from front to back, his ancestral field shattered, and his flesh and blood mangled.

On his deathbed, he let out a low, mournful roar, tears streaming down his face.

He had a trump card to save his life, but in that situation, he didn't have time to use it and died unwillingly.

Ye Cang's body folded in half at the waist and fell into the sea with a splash, turning into a scarlet red.
