Evil Intent, Demon-Slaying Divine Lightning
Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing was filled with shock and disbelief.
Unexpectedly, besides Qingyun Neng, there were other people who had left behind a backup plan.
But all these backup plans were destroyed, leaving only Qingyun Neng intact.
Was Zhi Qianshu doing this on purpose? Why would he do it?
Li Yunjing couldn't understand it.
Just then, the secret chamber suddenly began to shake violently, and a deafening roar came from outside.
Immediately afterwards, an evil aura several times stronger than before emanated from the crack, enveloping the entire secret chamber. The murals on the walls began to peel off, and the wooden box on the stone platform turned to dust.
The remnant soul of the Grandmaster Qingyun became even more blurred, and his voice grew urgent. "Not good! The Great Demon's second claw has already extended, and its true form will soon break free of its seal! Child, quickly fuse with the Azure Wood Origin Crystal! Only you can stop this disaster..."
Before the Grandmaster Qingyun could finish speaking, a black demonic aura suddenly seeped in from a crack in the secret chamber, coiling around the cyan crystal like a venomous snake.
"Don't even think about it!"
Li Yunjing roared and activated the Supreme Unity Pure Subtlety Scripture, creating a pale golden light shield that blocked the cyan crystal.
At the same time, he suddenly reached out and grabbed the blue crystal.
In an instant, a powerful and pure azure wood energy surged from the crystal into his body, perfectly merging with the Qingwei spiritual energy within his Dantian.
Li Yunjing felt completely refreshed, and his cultivation level instantly broke through to the Nascent Soul Perfection, and he was still advancing towards the Spirit Transformation Stage.
His brow was slightly warm, as if something was about to break free from its cocoon.
However, at that moment, he suddenly felt a chilling killing intent coming from behind him.
This killing intent was extremely subtle, yet incredibly familiar; Li Yunjing felt as if he had sensed this aura somewhere before.
Li Yunjing turned around abruptly and saw a person standing on the other side of the secret room.
The man was short and hunched over.
Upon seeing this person, Li Yunjing's pupils contracted sharply.
The person before me was none other than Zhi Qianshu!
"Zhi Qianshu?!"
Li Yunjing felt a chill run down his spine.
He couldn't believe it; the person standing there was Zhi Qianshu.
Didn't Zhi Qianshu clearly return to Azure Jiao Marsh Mystic Crane Flying Cloud Boat? How could he...?
Upon realizing this, Li Yunjing couldn't help but worry about the people on the Mystic Crane Flying Cloud Boat, as well as the disciples of the Azure Jiao Marsh Luozhen Sect in Qingjiao Marsh.
Zhi Qianshu's cultivation level is not weak; only Fang Hexuan can compare to him.
However Fang Hexuan is currently in the Myriad Spirits Ruins of Return and cannot go back.
However, Li Yunjing also felt strange, as the Zhi Qianshu he had seen before had a kind face.
But the Zhi Qianshu in front of them had a ferocious face, which seemed very incongruous.
"It seems you've stumbled upon my benevolent self. How is he now?" Zhi Qianshu paced slowly, his voice hoarse and eerie.
Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing's breathing became rapid.
"Benevolent Body"? What does that mean?
"Thousands of years ago, that guy learned that a great demon was sealed within the Myriad Spirits Ruins of Return, and he thought of absorbing the power of this great demon to help himself break through."
But once the seal is broken, he is not confident that he can defeat the great demon, so he has been hesitant.
Later, under my influence, he finally made up his mind, but I didn't expect that old guy to have such a strong State of Mind.
At the last moment, he forcibly separated him from me and personally sealed me here.
He just didn't expect that I was one with him, and how could I not understand his methods? This seal had absolutely no effect on me.
After I broke free from the seal, I began to slowly absorb the power of that great demon, but I found that there was always something blocking my way.
I destroyed the remnant souls of those six guys, but the last one went into hiding, and I've finally found him.
"He's dead, so nothing can stop me from absorbing the power of that great demon!" Zhi Qianshu grinned menacingly at Li Yunjing.
Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing roughly understood what had happened.
The Zhi Qianshu outside isn't a big problem.
After all, the Zhi Qianshu outside is a benevolent being, which means he has no malicious intent.
But the Zhi Qianshu before us is an evil entity; he is the most dangerous one.
Just as Li Yunjing was pondering, Zhi Qianshu's malevolent form flashed and pounced over like a ghost.
The Spirit-Eroding Dagger in his hand sliced through the air, carrying a foul stench, and pierced straight for Li Yunjing's heart.
"Qingwei Light Shield!"
Li Yunjing instinctively formed hand seals quickly.
A shield of light, interwoven with pale gold and turquoise, appeared out of thin air in front of him.
With a crisp clang, the dagger pierced the light shield, creating countless ripples.
Li Yunjing felt a tremendous force come from him, and his body involuntarily took a few steps back, but it was alright, not a big problem.
At this moment, Li Yunjing was quite surprised that he had actually blocked the attack of Zhi Qianshu's evil spirit body.
It should be noted that the power displayed by Zhi Qianshu's evil spirit body was at the Spirit Transformation Perfection.
No matter what I'm capable of now, I'm only at the Nascent Soul Perfection.
Li Yunjing looked down at the Azure Wood Origin Crystal in his hand, guessing that it was because of this treasure that he had the ability to contend with him!
"Useless!" Zhi Qianshu's malevolent form sneered, its attacks becoming even more ferocious.
Countless black claw shadows attacked from all directions, each one imbued with dense demonic energy.
Clearly, he had already practiced Devil Cultivation Method.
Li Yunjing barely managed to dodge using the Movement Method from the "Supreme Unity Pure Subtlety Scripture," while simultaneously launching Qingwei Light Blade to counterattack.
However, his attacks were blocked by a layer of black demonic energy barrier when they landed on the malevolent entity.
Just then, the Azure Wood Origin Crystal in Li Yunjing's hand suddenly emitted a dazzling light.
Li Yunjing felt a sharp pain between his eyebrows, as if something was about to break free from its cocoon.
He endured the pain, and in an instant, a crack appeared in the skin between his eyebrows, and a golden vertical eye slowly opened!
This vertical eye is different from Fang Hexuan's purple lightning eye. It is light gold in color, with countless tiny lightning patterns flowing in the pupil, exuding a sacred and majestic aura.
The moment the vertical eye opened, the entire secret chamber was enveloped in golden lightning.
"What?!" The evil entity's expression changed drastically, its eyes filled with disbelief. "The Demon-Slaying Lightning Eye!? How is this possible!?"
"Nothing is impossible." Li Yunjing's voice became incredibly authoritative. He slowly raised his right hand, golden lightning gathering at his fingertips. "Prepare to die!"
"Slay demons and vanquish evil!"
A dazzling golden lightning bolt shot out from Li Yunjing's fingertip, like a golden dragon, carrying a world-destroying power, and crashed fiercely into the evil entity.
The malevolent entity was terrified and quickly circulated its demonic energy, forming a thick black barrier in front of it.
This Demon-Slaying Divine Lightning is the most severe nemesis of the demonic path!
Anything related to demons is as fragile as paper before the Demon-Slaying Divine Lightning!
At that moment, the golden lightning bolt touched the barrier and pierced through it as easily as a hot knife through butter.
"Ah--!"
A piercing scream echoed through the secret chamber.
The malevolent entity was struck by the golden lightning pillar, and its demonic energy was instantly purified.
He stared intently at Li Yunjing, his eyes filled with resentment and bitterness.
"Damn Qingyun Neng, he actually left such a trump card!"
