Li Potian Dies

Meanwhile, Dongfang Yueming was rushing towards the Earth Spirit Sect at full speed.

Just as he was flying over a desolate mountain range, a violent and evil streak of blood-red light was also heading straight for him at an astonishing speed!

Neither of them expected to run into each other in such a place.

The blood-robed Grandmaster abruptly stopped in mid-air. He stared at the young man in front of him, whose aura was calm yet whose blood and energy were as vast as the sea. He was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes flashed with endless greed!

[Wow... such pure blood and energy! It's several times stronger than all the other martial artists I've absorbed along the way! It's truly heaven's help!]

He couldn't be bothered to ask who the other person was, and simply regarded Dongfang Yueming as an excellent "supplement" on his path to breakthrough.

"Boy, whoever you are, you've delivered yourself to my doorstep, so consider yourself unlucky! I'll take your essence blood!" He grinned maliciously, and his Grandmaster Domain— [Blood Sea Purgatory]—expanded with a roar!

Without a word, he unleashed his Grandmaster Domain— [Blood Sea Purgatory]!

However, faced with the encroaching Xue Hai, Dongfang Yueming simply shook his head.

The next moment, an even grander and more profound domain quietly bloomed around him!

[Water and Fire Purgatory]!

Half of it is a burning ocean, and the other half is a frozen blaze!

The moment the Blood-Robed Grandmaster's domain came into contact with this world where water and fire mingled, it was like ice and snow meeting the blazing sun, emitting a "sizzling" sound, and was instantly suppressed and melted away!

"What?! This... what kind of domain is this?!" Blood Robe Sect Sir was horrified, and fear appeared on his face for the first time!

Dongfang Yueming gave him no chance; she simply struck him with her palm from a distance.

The Two Aspects Seal!

A Tai Chi diagram, embodying the supreme concepts of the cycle of water and fire, and the birth and death of Yin and Yang, arrived in an instant!

"No--!"

In endless despair and resentment, the blood-robed Grandmaster, along with his domain, was completely purified and erased by that Tai Chi diagram, leaving not even a trace behind.

Having casually annihilated a powerful figure from the evil sect of the Central Continent, Dongfang Yueming felt little unease; instead, a hint of doubt arose within him.

[Grandmaster Realm, and his techniques are evil; he comes from the ' Blood Refining Sect ' of the Central Continent... Why would he come to such a remote place? The Blood Refining Sect, the Blood Refining Sect, could it be... for that ' Bloodthirsty Awl '?]

[However, I've already exchanged that item for points. I wonder if anyone else from the Blood Refining Sect has come?]

He shook his head, temporarily suppressing these questions in his mind.

Regardless, let's go to the Earth Spirit Sect first and settle the karmic debts here.

Earth Spirit Sect, in front of the mountain gate.

Looking at the mountain gate before him, which was both familiar and unfamiliar, Dongfang Yueming remained calm. He had been forced to leave here before, but now he had returned as Grandmaster.

He slowly stepped onto the stone steps.

"Halt! Who goes there!" Upon seeing this, the Earth Spirit Sect disciple guarding the mountain immediately stepped forward and shouted sternly.

However, when they tried to get closer to the Dongfang Yueming, it was as if they had hit an invisible wall, and they could not move forward even an inch.

Dongfang Yueming ignored them and spoke calmly, his voice clearly reaching the ears of every disciple:

"Summon your sect leader and Elder Li Potian to come out and see me."

The disciples guarding the mountain were all horrified upon hearing this!

Who is this person? How dare they address the Sect Master and Elder Li by their given names! And their methods are so unpredictable...

They were inwardly groaning. Not long ago, a ruthless, blood-robed old demon had arrived, and now a mysterious man in a bamboo hat had appeared. What was going on at the mountain gate today?

The leading disciple dared not be negligent. He knew that the person in front of him was someone he absolutely could not afford to offend. He quickly gave his companion a wink, and then scrambled and stumbled towards the main hall of the sect!

Inside the Earth Spirit Sect, in the main hall.

Li Potian paced back and forth anxiously, his face filled with worry and fear.

"Sect Master! That Blood-Robed Old Demon has already gone to Great Xia. What if... what if he can't find Li Xuan and takes his anger out on us?!"

The sect leader of the Earth Spirit Sect also remained silent, his face ashen. The prestige of the Blood Refining Sect weighed heavily on him, making it hard to breathe. He only hoped that the old demon could successfully find his target and never return.

Just then, the disciple guarding the mountain scrambled in, his face filled with surprise and fear.

"Reporting to the Sect Master! Outside the mountain gate... a young man wearing a bamboo hat is requesting an audience! He specifically named you and... Elder Li!"

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, both the sect leader and Li Potian were startled. They exchanged a glance and saw confusion in each other's eyes.

Could it be yet another Grandmaster?!

The two dared not delay and quickly got up and headed towards the mountain gate.

When they saw that familiar yet unfamiliar figure, they were all slightly taken aback.

Dongfang Yueming also noticed the lingering surprise and unease on the two faces, and a sense of curiosity arose in his heart.

[Their reaction... Could it be that someone else had already been here before me? Was it that blood-stained robe??]

Just then, Li Potian finally recognized Dongfang Yueming!

His worries and fears were instantly replaced by old and new grudges!

"You little beast!" Li Potian's face darkened, and he shouted angrily, "You dare to come back?! If it weren't for Qin Rushuang protecting you back then, you would have been dead long ago!"

The sect leader of the Earth Spirit Sect had initially relaxed his guard, subconsciously feeling that the young man before him posed no threat. However, when the words "Martial Sect" flashed through his mind, he forcibly suppressed his contempt and decided to take him seriously.

However, when he tried to sense Dongfang Yueming's cultivation level, he was horrified to find that the other party was like a deep starry sky, impossible to see through at all!

The sect leader's heart leaped into his throat!

"Judging from your reactions, has someone already been here?" Dongfang Yueming ignored Li Potian's clamor and calmly looked at the sect leader, asking.

"Hmph! What's it to you! What right do you have to interfere in the affairs of my Earth Spirit Sect!" Li Potian retorted disdainfully.

Dongfang Yueming didn't look at him, but continued, "Was that person wearing a blood-red robe?"

These words were like a thunderclap, exploding in the ears of Li Potian and the sect leader!

"You... how did you know?!" Li Potian looked at him with surprise and doubt. "Could it be... you met him?"

Immediately, a gloating expression appeared on his face. "Hmph! You're lucky! You actually managed to survive against Grandmaster like that! You must have been begging for mercy on your knees like a dog! Those kinds of powerful figures can be killed with a mere breath..."

"He came here, is he looking for Li Xuan?" Dongfang Yueming interrupted him again.

"You...!" Li Potian was truly shocked this time. A strong sense of unease surged into his heart, and he could no longer maintain his composure. He questioned sharply, "How did you know?!"

"Because he's dead," Dongfang Yueming said calmly. "Li Xuan is dead too."

"Wh... what?!"

Li Potian was struck dumb, his mind went completely blank!

Li Xuan is dead? His grandson is dead?!

Unable to accept this fact, Li Potian felt a surge of rage and was determined to take action at all costs to force Dongfang Yueming to reveal what had happened!

The sect leader of the Earth Spirit Sect was also stunned by the news, but as the sect leader, he forced himself to remain rational and was about to step forward to smooth things over.

Li Potian had gone completely mad because of the news of his grandson's death. He pointed at Dongfang Yueming and roared hysterically, "You're talking nonsense! You said Li Xuan is dead, but what about the Blood-Robed Old Demon? Is that Grandmaster- level expert also dead?"

In that case, who killed them? Don't tell me it was...

You guessed right.

These four words completely shattered Li Potian's last shred of reason.

He stared at Dongfang Yueming in disbelief, his eyes filled with extreme fear and madness.

[Impossible... Absolutely impossible...]

The sect leader of the Earth Spirit Sect also felt a chill run through him. He knew that things had completely spiraled out of his control! He was about to speak to Dongfang Yueming, hoping to resolve this feud.

However, Dongfang Yueming had lost patience to continue their act.

He made his move.

Without any earth-shattering momentum, he simply pointed a finger at Li Potian from a distance.

"Be careful!" The sect master of the Earth Spirit Sect was horrified and tried to stop him, but found that his body had become extremely slow within the opponent's invisible domain!

Li Potian also sensed a deadly crisis and tried to defend himself in terror.

But it was all too late.

A gust of wind, silently, pierced through his brow.

Li Potian's body froze in mid-air, and the divine light in his eyes quickly dimmed.
