Kill Them at Their Door!

"Senior, how powerful is this Black Flame Earth Buddha?"

Hearing Bi Cang's shocked voice, Chen Changming's blood boiled, and he could not suppress his excitement.

Bi Cang took a deep breath, calmed himself, and said in a deep voice, "If you provide enough of its Essence Blood, its power is comparable to that of a cultivator at the first level of the Golden Core stage!"

Comparable to a first-level Golden Core cultivator?

Chen Changming was overjoyed upon hearing this.

With the addition of the Demon Spirit Vine, he essentially possesses the combat power of two Golden Core cultivators.

He had nothing to fear when facing Wu Daozi.

"Ning Jin, the life force contained in the Purple Blood within you is too powerful. Have you cultivated some special Body Refining Cultivation Method?"

Bi Cang asked curiously.

"The senior who gave me the Key said that my Five Elements Mixed Spirit Root were not suitable for cultivation, so he taught me a Heavenly Furnace Body-Forging Art."

Chen Changming laughed.

Five Elements Mixed Spirit Root?

Bi Cang was shocked, not expecting that Ning Jin's aptitude for cultivation was so poor.

"I know this Body Refining Cultivation Method, but it's nowhere near as powerful as this..."

Bi Cang frowned and pondered. She believed that "Ning Jin" was not lying, but she couldn't understand why the Heavenly Furnace Body-Forging Art had changed in him.

"Fellow Daoist Ning, are you there?"

A charming voice drifted from outside the cave abode.

Chen Changming's expression changed. He recognized the person; it was the middle-aged beauty beside Wu Daozi.

He scanned the area with his Divine Sense and found that only the middle-aged beautiful woman had come.

Chen Changming walked out of the cave abode entrance.

"Fellow Daoist Ning, Senior Wu is hosting a celebration banquet tomorrow, inviting some cultivators from Yellow Sprout Mountain to appreciate the Buddhist treasures he has acquired."

The middle-aged beauty smiled slightly, clasped her hands in greeting, and said, "Without Fellow Daoist Ning, Senior Wu wouldn't have been able to obtain the Buddhist treasure. That's why he asked me to specially invite you to come to the valley tomorrow night when the Bright Moon rises to enjoy the moon and appraise the treasure together."

Moon Viewing and Treasure Appraisal?

Chen Changming sneered inwardly.

Wu Daozi didn't dare to make a move at the Black Buddha Sect Ruins earlier because he was afraid he wasn't entirely confident. Now that he's back, he's laid a trap for him.

"Fellow Daoist, I am currently injured and need to recuperate for some time, so I will not be going for the time being."

Chen Changming clasped his hands in a fist and smiled, directly refusing the offer.

He wouldn't fall into someone else's trap. If Wu Daozi was impatient, then he'd let him come to him. That way, he could unleash his dual Golden Core power and kill him in one fell swoop.

"Fellow Daoist Ning, you're putting me in a very difficult position..."

The middle-aged beauty sighed upon hearing this and said softly, "Senior Wu is highly respected and has protected Yellow Sprout Mountain for many years. If you refuse, Fellow Daoist Ning, I'm afraid Senior Wu will punish me."

"Just kill a lowly cultivator at the first level of the Golden Core stage."

Bi Cang's cold voice rang in my ears. "Ning Jin, today we'll storm his lair and catch him off guard."

Chen Changming was quite tempted.

"Fellow Daoist, how about this: you take me back. I have some things I need to explain to Senior Wu in person."

Chen Changming said.

Explain in person?

Suddenly, a look of horror appeared in the middle-aged woman's eyes. Could it be that this rogue cultivator at the fourth level of Foundation Establishment really had a trump card to fight against Senior Wu?

As Wu Daozi's confidante, she was well aware of his scheme. Tomorrow night's moon-viewing and treasure appraisal was just a setup to lure Ning Jin into the Soul-Startling Array.

Using the power of the grand formation, we killed him.

However, if Ning Jin were to rashly enter the valley, he would pose a certain threat to Wu Daozi.

"Fellow Daoist Ning, Senior Wu is not receiving guests today."

The middle-aged woman looked at Chen Changming, her voice trembling slightly. She suddenly realized that this man could kill her with ease.

A streak of black light suddenly flew out of the cave abode.

Then a black beam of light shot out, striking the middle-aged woman squarely in the chest and instantly creating a bloody hole.

"You..."

On her deathbed, the middle-aged woman stared wide-eyed at a strange and imposing Black Buddha floating in mid-air. She died before she could utter the last word.

She never dreamed that Ning Jin also possessed a Black Buddha statue.

The moment blood splattered, Chen Changming decisively flew out and put the middle-aged woman's corpse into his Beast Taming Bracelet.

"Ning Jin, check her Storage Ring. Do you see any tokens for Wu Daozi's Mountain-Guarding Formation?"

Bi Cang, with a cold expression, floated out of the cave abode Middle Vehicle a black lotus.

Chen Changming took out his Storage Ring, used the Lesser Soul-Erasing Art to remove the mental imprint, and then scanned it with his Divine Sense, indeed finding a token.

He took it out.

"Senior, I'm not familiar with formations, is this correct?"

He asked in a low voice.

"It's Array Access Token."

Bi Cang's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and his voice was chilling. "Let's go, kill Wu Daozi to eliminate future troubles!"

After saying that, she transformed into a streak of black light and returned to the Buddha Bead on Chen Changming's chest.

"Good."

Chen Changming gritted his teeth and waved his hand to put the Black Buddha into his Storage Ring.

Wu Daozi's desire to kill him remains undiminished; now, it's a matter of life or death between the two of them. Eliminating Wu Daozi would also grant him the Black Buddha, greatly increasing his combat power.

Through the sudden killing of the middle-aged beauty, Chen Changming could tell that this senior Bi Cang was ruthless and efficient, and must have been a powerful figure in the past.

Before long, he flew on his sword to the valley where Wu Daozi lived.

Holding the token, he entered the clouds, and the array rippled outwards, revealing a passage.

Chen Changming flashed inside.

In the blink of an eye, he flew outside the stone house.

At this moment, Wu Daozi was inside the house admiring the newly acquired Black Buddha treasure.

The man in white robes stood behind him.

"Senior Wu, I appreciate your kindness, and I, Ning, will personally come to appraise this treasure today."

A voice suddenly rang out outside the stone house.

Ning Jin?

Wu Daozi's face suddenly stiffened. He put the Black Buddha into his Storage Ring and then disappeared from the stone house.

"Qiao'er, you killed her?"

Seeing Chen Changming standing alone outside the stone house with no fear, Wu Daozi activated a protective magic Law Artifact without hesitation, and a layer of red light completely enveloped him.

"Kill him."

Chen Changming said calmly.

Ning Jin, you'll die a horrible death!

The man in white robes rushed out and launched an attack in a fit of rage.

A sword light flew out, heading straight for Chen Changming's chest.

Boom!

With a wave of his hand, Chen Changming conjured a Black Buddha statue out of thin air, which blasted the Flying Sword away with a single punch.

"You... you also have a Black Buddha!"

Wu Daozi stared at the Black Buddha statue with a horrified expression, and a sense of foreboding suddenly filled him.

With a sweep of his Divine Sense, he was shocked to discover that the Black Buddha was actually a mid-grade Law Treasure.

It's even stronger than his Black Buddha statue!

"Ning Jin, are you also Golden Core cultivator?"

Watching the Black Buddha move freely, as if being controlled by someone, Wu Daozi thought of a certain possibility, and his face suddenly turned pale.

"No, I'm just Foundation Establishment cultivator."

Chen Changming smiled faintly and released the Demon Spirit Vine with a wave of his hand.

As soon as the Demon Spirit Vine appeared, its body rapidly expanded, becoming enormous in the blink of an eye. Its black vines, like black dragons, sealed off the entire valley.

"Level 5, low-tier Demon Beast!"

Looking at the overwhelming Black Vine, Wu Daozi felt a sudden sense of despair.

He knew very well how powerful a level 5 initial-stage Demon Beast was; in terms of strength, it was no weaker than an ordinary Golden Core level 1 cultivator!
