Revenge for Zhu Xun Today, Foundation Establishment Late Stage Devilish Cultivator's Surprise Attack
"That power just now, it was probably the same power he displayed last time that killed Golden Core Great Cultivator. What exactly was that power?"
Seeing Chen Dengming leap into the broken Formation below, Qiao Zhaoxian was surprised and pondered. He rushed down after him and suddenly received a telepathic message from Gao Lingxiao.
"Brother Qiao, did Fellow Daoist Chen also kill the Blazing Flame Blood Devil in the same way last time?"
Qiao Zhaoxian chuckled, knowing that Gao Lingxiao had finally acknowledged Chen Dengming's strength and had started addressing him as Fellow Daoist Chen.
He responded.
"Indeed, it was the same last time, even more powerful. What's wrong, Fellow Daoist Gao? Have you finally found a peer who surpasses you? Has your heart begun to flutter?"
"Go away! Always so serious! Hurry up and finish this fight."
"Fellow Daoist Chen has already secured the credit for the biggest fish, how could I not give him face? Now, Fellow Daoist Gao, it's your turn to deal with these small fry."
"What do you take me for? One of your Tiandao Sect underlings? If you won't make a move, then I won't either."
"I just can't do anything with you women."
"What's wrong with women? You're talking in a discriminatory way. Explain yourself."
After a heated argument, the two attacked swiftly, showing no mercy to the numerous Qi Refining Devil Cultivator as they cast their spells, slaughtering them all.
Chen Dengming, on the other hand, relentlessly pursued He Li was speeding away in escape.
This person was decisive; the moment the Formation was breached, he immediately abandoned his fellow disciples and fled alone, without ever considering fighting to the death.
Its body transforms into black smoke, blending into the thousands of fleeing spirits, not only deceiving the eyes but also making it difficult for even the Divine Sense to accurately identify and lock onto it in a short time.
However, with the Little Array Spirit Soul House locking onto the target, the opponent had nowhere to hide and was instantly located.
"Dao, fellow Daoist, where are you!"
A flash of silver light appeared with a crackling sound.
With the support of Dao power, Chen Dengming's sword light moved with astonishing speed, instantly traversing the chaotic Battlefield, tearing through the obstacles of countless Yin spirits, and suddenly appearing before a wisp of black smoke.
Suddenly, he slashed out with his sword.
"I know you, I recognize you. You are Chen Baimao of the Longevity Sect, but what grudge do we have? Why are you being so aggressive!"
Amidst the black smoke, He Li roared in panic, suddenly gathering the surrounding Yin spirits and uniting with the three Foundation Establishment Yin spirits. In an instant, they formed a black, lumpy cloud, which transformed into a cone-shaped Ghost Soldiers that charged towards the blade energy unleashed by Chen Dengming!
Rumble--
A series of sharp, thunderous cracks sent chills down one's spine.
Chen Dengming became one with his sword, moving freely and unrestrained. With each thrust and slash, he generated powerful sword energy, like an invisible weapon encompassing all directions, causing the vengeful spirits to perish.
In the blink of an eye, the blade light transformed into a powerful stream of air, instantly rushing towards He Li expression had drastically changed.
"Asshole!"
He Li out a long roar, and suddenly two powerful beams of Divine Sense shot out from his eyes, rushing straight towards Chen Dengming.
At the same time, however, he saw that Chen Dengming's eyes were shining with a silvery-white light, carrying a kind of coldness and majesty, and bursting out with Divine Sense that was even stronger than his own, a cultivator of the Soul Devouring Sect.
The grass on the ground lay flat and bent over.
Instantly, his mind went blank, his forehead felt cold, and a chill ran from his head to his heels.
Suppression of Divine Sense!
In his eyes, he saw only a long knife stabbing towards him with a seemingly slow but actually swift motion.
It drew an arc in the air that surpassed any worldly beauty, transforming into dazzling lightning that suddenly pierced his forehead.
Bass--
A sharp blade emerged from the back of his head, gleaming but without drawing blood.
Chen Dengming suddenly drew his sword, spraying a cloud of blood onto the ground, and shouted.
"Ling'er!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Fellow Daoist—"
A Red Rhombus instantly emerged from the Soul House, burrowed into He Li, grabbed his frantically struggling soul, and tightly bound it to prevent it from actively dissipating.
"Let me go!"
He Li's soul struggled and roared in resentment, "Don't you Longevity Sect cultivators preach non-contention? Don't you preach not to fight? Are you a fake Longevity Sect cultivator! What grudge do I have against you?"
Chen Dengming's face remained expressionless as he stood there, his eyes gleaming with light. The Divine Transformation Blade shrank and swirled around him.
With a thud, He Li's body fell to the ground.
Chen Dengming's fluttering robes fell silent as he spoke calmly.
"It seems you really didn't recognize me. I'm asking you, did you kill Cao Yan?"
"Cao Yan?"
He Li was stunned for a moment, and the anger and resentment in his eyes slowly turned into a gray darkness.
"So you did this to avenge him? That makes sense, he is a cultivator from the Longevity Sect, it's normal that you two have a relationship."
I just never expected that you bunch of spineless old turtles from the Longevity Sect, who would rather die than see your fellow Daoists die, would actually stand up for me? How laughable!
Chen Dengming calmly said, "It's not just Cao Yan!"
He suddenly summoned the Soul Guiding Banner and summoned his brother Zhu Xun from the flag.
"Old Zhu, come out and see some old acquaintances."
Zhu Xun flew out like a black whirlwind, baring his fangs and claws, his appearance fierce and ferocious, making a hissing sound. His copper bell-like eyes locked onto He Li's soul, his eyes filled with greed.
But soon, that greedy look was replaced by a glimmer of wisdom, and doubt gradually emerged, along with an increasingly obvious hatred.
"Fierce Ghost!? Fierce Ghost at the mid- Foundation Establishment Realm? No, why does it also have the aura of evil spirits?"
He Li felt a chill run through his body, filled with immense fear.
Even though he was False Core Great Cultivator in life, now that he is dead and Dao God remains, his strength is reduced to less than one-hundredth.
Only after being refined into a fake cinnabar spirit can it possibly recover 30% to 50% of its former power, at which point it would be no match for Zhu Xun.
"It seems you don't know him either?" Chen Dengming smiled calmly, his eyes filled with icy coldness.
Zhu Xun roared repeatedly, his fangs snapping open and closing as if he wanted to devour He Li, clearly recognizing the man who had killed him in the past.
He Li was stunned.
Just as he didn't recognize Chen Dengming, he also genuinely didn't recognize Zhu Xun.
The number of innocent cultivators and mortals who died at his hands in the past was at least tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands.
Aside from powerful figures like Cao Yan, why would he remember some nobody?
His expression darkened, then he gave a bitter laugh, no longer struggling or arguing, only saying that this was truly a case of vengeance having its perpetrator and debtor its debtor; it was just a matter of time before retribution.
Now, the time has come.
Chen Dengming stopped Zhu Xun and asked, "Where is Cao Yan's soul?"
He Li said in a vacant tone, "He didn't give me a chance to capture his soul; he simply dissipated his own."
Chen Dengming stopped talking and waved his hand.
Zhu Xun immediately roared and pounced, grabbing the restrained He Li and tearing at him, devouring him whole.
He Li didn't let out a scream, but stared at Chen Dengming with a strange and resentful look. His screams turned into eerie laughter as Zhu Xun devoured him.
Chen Dengming frowned.
Such a primitive and barbaric method of soul devouring may not be very efficient.
Afterwards, Zhu Xun may need a long time to digest the Soul Power.
But after digesting it, a breakthrough is inevitable.
If Zhu Xun breaks through to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, then if he continues, he will have the souls of Golden Core Great Cultivator Blazing Flame Blood Devil Demon and Pseudo-Core Demon Beast as resources for him to devour.
The brothers in this banner didn't work hard at cultivating immortality; instead, they cultivated the path of demons, and their lives were like a cheat code, with everything going smoothly for them.
Chen Dengming shook the Soul Guiding Banner, taking Zhu Xun inside to continue eating.
At this time.
The fighting in the surrounding area was almost over.
Even with just a slight exertion of their abilities, Qiao Zhaoxian and Gao Lingxiao's attacks resulted in a complete and utter slaughter of the many Qi Refining disciples of the Soul Devouring Sect.
Chen Dengming looked around and saw some Qi Refining Devil Cultivator from the Soul Devouring Sect screaming and falling to the ground, their corpses strewn all over the place.
In the air, sword light fell like rain, each sword light easily piercing through the defenses of Qi Cultivation Cultivator and reaping their life.
The fleeing cultivators were killed by the Yellow Turban Warriors summoned by Qiao Zhaoxian who surrounded the forest.
In such Battlefield, even a Qi Cultivation High Level cultivator, or even one at the Qi Cultivation Tenth Level, is a joke, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, unlikely to save their life.
Chen Dengming looked at this scene indifferently. Although he was filled with emotion, he didn't have much sympathy.
What he remarked was that as his strength increased, his horizons and experiences also broadened.
Back in the days of the Gathering Place, cultivators were considered extraordinary figures by ordinary people.
After becoming a cultivator, those at the Qi Cultivation High Level are important figures and are sought after by various Lineage.
But now, on this Battlefield of the four domains, the lives of Qi Cultivation Cultivator are no different from those of ordinary people; they are as worthless as weeds.
This cannot be said to mean that there are more Qi Cultivation Cultivator. After all, the Soul Devouring Sect is such a large sect that it must have tens of thousands of Qi Cultivation Cultivators, just like the Longevity Sect.
Even if a hundred disciples are sent here and die here, it won't cause them any serious harm.
There's not much to say since we're on different sides.
Although Chen Dengming was moved, he did not hold back. He raised his hand and pointed a finger at a Qi Devil Cultivator who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead, killing him instantly.
Just as he was about to kill another man hiding under the pile of corpses, the man pushed aside the bodies with a bitter smile, his face covered in blood, and stared at Chen Dengming with a fearless, resentful look.
"You can't escape either! Our reinforcements are on their way!"
You False Core Great Cultivator, so high and mighty, looking down on us lowly cultivators, but soon there will be even more powerful cultivators to deal with you!
Chen Dengming frowned, a thought flashing through his mind, and asked, "Who are your reinforcements?"
"Someone you can't afford to mess with!"
"Puff--"
Chen Dengming killed the reckless Devil Cultivator with a single finger strike, his Divine Sense confirming the authenticity of the message.
He recalled He Li's strange smile earlier, and his expression turned serious.
Immediately send a telepathic message to Qiao Zhaoxian and Gao Lingxiao.
"Quickly end the battle, destroy the Formation, and leave! They have reinforcements, possibly Golden Core Great Cultivator."
Qiao Zhaoxian aback for a moment, then became interested and said with a smile via telepathy, "Fellow Daoist Chen, how about the three of us join forces this time and kill another Golden Core cultivator?"
Gao Lingxiao was startled, but then he thought of Chen Dengming and Qiao Zhaoxian's fighting prowess and felt inexplicably excited. The words of rebuttal were on the tip of his tongue, but he didn't say them.
"Don't be crazy."
Chen Dengming coldly transmitted his voice, "If it were just Golden Core Early Stage cultivator, that would be fine, but don't forget what level of cultivation they were when they chased you last time."
Qiao Zhaoxian's smile faltered, and he said awkwardly, "There shouldn't be any more Golden Core Late Stage cultivators appearing, right? Last time was just an accident. Now, those four Golden Core Late Stage protectors from the Mochao Kingdom are being closely monitored by all the sects in the Eastern Region."
Chen Dengming completely ignored what Qiao Zhaoxian saying.
This guy already showed his true colors last time; he's a complete warmonger.
While they generally demonstrate responsibility, there are occasional instances where they may engage in risky behavior, as is the case now.
He flew directly to the magic circle and began to destroy it.
The mission we've come for this time is simply to destroy the magic array.
Now that the magic array has been destroyed and almost all the enemies guarding it have been annihilated, the mission has been perfectly accomplished. There's no need to create unnecessary trouble and gamble on the strength of the Devil Cultivator's reinforcements.
People with the right skills should only do what's appropriate for their level of competence; the more they like to show off, the faster they'll fail.
Even if this person is truly just a Devil Cultivator at the Golden Core Early Stage, given the lesson learned from the Blazing Flame Blood Devil, the opponent will certainly not be careless again. Trying to continue killing a Golden Core cultivator will be extremely difficult, and they might even suffer an unexpected defeat.
Seeing that Chen Dengming disagreed, Qiao Zhaoxian and Gao Lingxiao exchanged a glance, and could only shake their heads as well.
Gao Lingxiao said, "Fellow Daoist Chen is, after all, a disciple of the Longevity Sect. Birds of a feather flock together. Expecting him to take risks is probably not going to work."
Qiao Zhaoxian smiled calmly and said, "Never mind, what he said makes a lot of sense. We're not even sure about the strength of the reinforcements, and we might end up killing ourselves. I was just acting impulsively and didn't think things through."
Let's go, let's get started."
Several dozen breaths later.
A tremendous roar followed.
The fourth magic circle has also been destroyed.
The three of them quickly cleaned up the Battlefield.
There weren't many good things on a group of Qi Cultivation Cultivator.
After quickly tidying up, Chen Dengming left first.
However, almost a hundred miles away, a faint pressure began to appear rapidly from the front and back, permeating the air.
"Two Golden Core cultivators?"
The three were startled and immediately stopped flying. Divine Sense two faint, oppressive auras approaching rapidly from the front and rear.
Almost instantly, two dazzling, golden sun-like, intense golden core pressures appeared from the south and north, pursuing them at extremely high speed, forming a pincer attack.
"Two Golden Core Late Stage cultivators! What kind of lineup is this? Are they here to deal with us?"
Qiao Zhaoxian changed, and his heart pounded wildly.
Gao Lingxiao's face also changed color. She was glad that she had listened to Chen Dengming's words, otherwise she would have had no chance to escape at all.
"Run! Split up! There are three of us, and only two of them. Let's see who's the luckiest."
Without a moment's hesitation, Chen Dengming swiftly summoned a mid-level third-tier spirit boat, flew aboard, and sped away without any delay.
Qiao Zhaoxian and Gao Lingxiao reacted almost simultaneously, flying off in different directions.
A moment later, Chen Dengming's face turned ugly, as if he felt thorns in his back.
An extremely powerful pressure was rapidly approaching at an alarming speed.
His concentrated Divine Sense seemed to be burning.
The major cultivation in the Golden Core Late Stage is different from that in the Golden Core Early Stage.
The place where he was located was not a geographically advantageous location like the Southern Seeking Land.
Fortunately, this oppressive force was quickly transferred.
A beam of light, as bright as a golden sun, streaked across the sky, heading straight for the unfortunate Qiao Zhaoxian on the left.
Within the light waves, an Evil Qi figure, its body wreathed in vengeful spirits and skulls, faintly appeared, glancing at Chen Dengming from afar.
Chen Dengming immediately felt a strong pressure from his Divine Sense, and his heart was filled with immense oppression and trembling. The pressure dissipated only after his Dao power emerged.
"Such terrifying Divine Sense pressure! This person is probably much stronger than Old Dog Han."
Chen Dengming watched as the other party chased after Qiao Zhaoxian. He breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he prayed for Old Qiao out of a sense of morality.
"Looks like I'm the lucky one."
Old Qiao, you got what you asked for. Now that reinforcements have arrived, they're after you. I'm not going to join the fun. I hope you still have the Heavenly Dao Token.
As Candidate Dao Son, you should also have a Heavenly Dao Decree, right? I wish you good fortune and that the heavens will surely bless you."
He sped away quickly.
Although loyalty is important, this is not the time to be loyal; rushing in would only be a pointless suicide.
Not long after.
Suddenly, a booming sound came from afar, like muffled thunder exploding, rumbling and rumbling.
Chen Dengming's expression changed slightly; it sounded like a fight had broken out.
Old Qiao and Little Gao really that powerful? They can create such a huge commotion even against Golden Core Late Stage cultivator?
But soon, he realized something was wrong.
Several powerful Golden Core cultivators seemed to appear in the distance, their auras obscure, as if they were fighting against the Golden Core Late Stage cultivators of the two Devil Cultivators. It was as if several Golden Core masters had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"Sect Master Qiu?"
Chen Dengming immediately thought of Qiu Feng, his eyes narrowing slightly.
It seems that the mission route he chose this time was indeed one of proactively resolving trouble?
Qiu Feng, the main force of the Longevity Sect, has made his move. The other two Golden Core cultivators are likely experts from the Tiandao Sect and the Shu Sword Pavilion.
So, this time, the three major sects used the three of them, or the mission to destroy the magic array, as bait to lure out the two Golden Core Late Stage cultivators from the Devil Cultivator camp, and then annihilated them?
"It seems that the three major sects had someone within the Devil Cultivator camp who intercepted some intelligence beforehand, which Sect Master Qiu and the others used us as bait."
Having pondered this for a moment, Chen Dengming was not surprised.
Guan Chao had warned him beforehand, so he had already anticipated this.
He glanced into the distance, then without further hesitation, turned and fled.
The two Golden Core Late Stage cultivators in the Devil Cultivator camp are not so easy to kill.
Even if Qiu Feng and his group were prepared to take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, they might not be able to completely annihilate the enemy without overwhelming strength.
Chen Dengming steered the spirit boat at Swift as the Wind and Lightning, flying hundreds of miles in one breath.
Suddenly, a series of booming sounds came from the southwest, and faintly, Qiao Zhaoxian's familiar long howl could be heard among them.
"What's wrong with Old Qiao?"
Chen Dengming turned around and looked diagonally behind him, and was startled.
A gigantic monster with a bull's head and a human body, as large as a small mountain, was chasing Qiao Zhaoxian with a giant axe. Each swing of the axe would cut through the air, creating large bursts of air and white waves, causing Qiao Zhaoxian jump up and down, and his Primordial Qi Bracelet to vibrate and hum.
"It's that Great Demon general from the Battlefield back then!"
Chen Dengming's eyes narrowed as he recognized the bull-headed, human-bodied Demon Beast as the Golden Core Great Demon he had witnessed during his first time on the Battlefield.
Unexpectedly, the Devil Cultivator camp has sent out such Great Demon general this time.
"Fellow Daoist Chen!"
Behind them, Qiao Zhaoxian fled in a disheveled state, his Divine Sense for help echoing through the air.
Chen Dengming did not stop for a moment, but continued to increase the speed of the spirit boat, transmitting his voice to Qiao Zhaoxian from afar.
"Old Qiao, keep running! Keep going! I believe in your escape skills, Qiao Taotao. How far have we gotten? Use your best tricks to escape! I'll be waiting for you up ahead."
Are you kidding? This is so close to the area where those Golden Core Late Stage cultivators were fighting. Asking him to turn back and fight the minotaur is impossible; it's too dangerous.
This Qiao Zhaoxian didn't even use his signature move from the last time in the Illusory True Cave, yet he wants to go back and work together. If he can't win, he won't be as good at escaping as the other party.
Of the thirty-six stratagems, the best course of action is to continue fleeing! Escape to the Mingyun Mountain Range not far ahead and hide in the Nanxun base camp for a while.
If you're capable of cultivating to the Golden Core Late Stage realm, then come and join us!
