Chapter 338 Killing Chi Lei and Hua Wuji
Chapter 338 Killing Chi Lei and Hua Wuji
a few days later.
Near Wulei Mountain, on a desolate mountain, a middle-aged cultivator with a sallow face stood on the summit, concealing his figure with a secret technique, watching two figures fly out from Wulei Mountain.
"Finally, someone's come out." Li Ping smiled and followed them in a flash.
in the valley.
Looking at the two low-level cultivators who had fallen into a coma in front of him, Li Ping nodded slightly, stretched out his right hand, and pulled one of the cultivators into his palm. Then, a wisp of blue light surged from his palm and entered the man's head.
A moment later, Li Ping repeated the process, performing a soul search on another low-level cultivator.
After doing all this, he launched two fireballs, burning the two men to ashes, and then stood there pondering the information he had obtained from the soul search.
His guess was correct.
These two were indeed descendants of the Crimson Thunder Old Monster. However, to Li Ping's surprise, these two did not know that they were members of the Joyful Union Sect.
All I can say is that Old Monster Chi Lei is really into his role.
The good news is that, according to the information they both know, Old Monster Chi Lei did indeed resign from his position at Donghua Mountain Market six years ago and returned to Wulei Mountain to spend the rest of his life.
As for whether Old Monster Crimson Thunder has begun to deplete the power of his natal magic weapon to refine talisman treasures?
This is something that two low-level Qi Refining cultivators could not possibly know.
Li Ping leaned towards the idea that Old Monster Chi Lei had already done so. It was true that demonic cultivators were selfish and self-serving, but Old Monster Chi Lei was about to die, and since he had left behind descendants, and he didn't even let them know about his family's relationship with the Hehuan Sect.
That is enough to show that Old Monster Crimson Thunder wanted his descendants to follow the right path after his death.
Therefore, it was impossible for him not to refine talismans to leave for his descendants.
After all, the magical treasures he left behind were unusable by his Foundation Establishment stage descendants, and might even bring trouble upon them.
If Li Ping were to handle such matters, he would not only leave his natal magic weapon, but also most of his personal wealth to his descendants, lest it attract malicious covetousness from those with ulterior motives.
For example, giving most of one's wealth to a reliable fellow cultivator of the same level, asking him to take care of one's descendants after death.
"With these two dead, the Five Thunder Mountain will probably know by now." A fierce glint flashed in Li Ping's eyes. "Since Old Monster Crimson Thunder is at Five Thunder Mountain, let's go and kill him now."
Including the Wildfire Sparrow, our side has a total of three Core Formation cultivators.
Moreover, his own and the Wildfire Sparrow's combat strength far exceeded that of ordinary early-stage Core Formation cultivators.
He didn't find it difficult to deal with a mid-stage Core Formation cultivator who was halfway to the grave.
As he whispered, Li Ping's appearance changed again, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed into a burly man, none other than Li Jingyu.
Although he had made up his mind not to use Li Jingyu's disguise again when he first heard of Li Jingyu's terrifying power.
But upon closer reflection, it is precisely because Li Jingyu has committed countless evil deeds that he has earned the stereotypical image of a "heartless and insane old devil."
Therefore, it is perfectly reasonable for him to suddenly kill the Crimson Thunder Monster, and it will not lead people to make wild guesses.
The cause of death was also very clear: he died at the hands of Li Jingyu.
As for the reason for killing him?
No reason is needed.
What reason does this fiend Li Jingyu need to kill people?
……
Using the same trick again, he ordered the Earth Spirit Rat to use the Earth Escape Technique, taking himself, Xuan Yi, and the Wildfire Sparrow underground, and rapidly approaching the Five Thunder Mountain.
In just a few moments, they arrived at the underground location of Wulei Mountain.
Facing the azure light barrier formed by the Five Thunder Mountain Protector Array, the Wildfire Sparrow stepped forward and spat out a mouthful of spiritual flame, instantly melting a large hole several feet in diameter in the light barrier.
Immediately, four figures of varying heights filed in through the gap, once again enveloped by a layer of earthy yellow light, and headed towards a stone pool near the mountainside of Wulei Mountain.
According to information obtained from the two descendants of the Crimson Thunder Monster through soul-searching, the Crimson Thunder Monster spent most of his time cultivating by this spiritually rich stone pool.
As they drew closer to the stone pool, Li Ping's vast divine sense spread out, attempting to locate the Crimson Thunder Monster.
Once he successfully locks onto the target, he will instantly appear with a beast and a puppet, using every means to kill it, giving the Crimson Thunder Old Monster no time to react.
After all, this kind of old monster from the demonic path.
Who knows if he has any strange tricks up his sleeve?
If he could do that, Li Ping would naturally kill him directly, giving him no chance to make a move.
"Found it."
A smile appeared on Li Ping's face. In his divine sense, he had already seen the old man with red shawl, curly hair, and a magnificent robe sitting cross-legged by the stone pool, refining talismans.
Who else could this old man be but the Crimson Thunder Monster?
Moreover, judging from his pale face and severely depleted vitality, it was clear that he had suffered a significant loss of his vital essence during the process of refining the talisman.
"Let's attack together!"
He coldly gave orders to the Earth Spirit Rat and the Wildfire Sparrow.
……
Not long ago.
In an elegant courtyard on Wulei Mountain, an old man with a square face and large ears was leisurely drinking tea, a smile in his eyes.
"Let's attack together!"
He coldly gave orders to the Earth Spirit Rat and the Wildfire Sparrow.
……
Not long ago.
In an elegant courtyard on Wulei Mountain, an old man with a square face and large ears was leisurely drinking tea, a smile in his eyes.
As the Grand Elder of the Blood Shadow Sect, Hua Wuji had already cultivated to the late stage of Core Formation, and his cultivation was enough to allow him to roam freely in the Western Wilderness.
When they first entered the Western Wilderness, the Blood Shadow Sect was no less powerful or influential than the other two sects besides the Spirit Control Sect among the four major sects of the demonic path.
However, after entering the Western Wilderness, they inexplicably caused some trouble, which lowered their reputation and made them one of the least prominent of the four major demonic sects.
This includes the previous Grand Elder being injured by a mere early-stage Core Formation cultivator, losing all face, and the disciples he meticulously nurtured betraying the sect.
The reason he appeared at Wulei Mountain this time was because he owed Old Monster Chilei a favor.
Old Monster Chi Lei promised to leave all his wealth to him before he passed away, and in addition to that favor, he asked him to protect his descendants after his death.
Hua Wuji readily agreed.
He also understood that the reason for doing this was actually due to the cunning of Old Monster Chi Lei.
There is little sentimentality among demonic cultivators. If Old Monster Crimson Thunder leaves all his wealth to his fellow disciples of the Joyful Union Sect, asking them to take care of his descendants...
I guess once he dies, that fellow disciple will say something like, "Accepting a gift doesn't mean I agree to it," and then leave without caring about the fate of his descendants.
But he was different; he was not a cultivator of the Hehuan Sect.
If he did that, the Hehuan Sect would undoubtedly cause trouble for him. He wasn't afraid, but he would inevitably lose face. Therefore, Old Monster Chi Lei was certain that he would help him take care of his descendants.
As for the resentment of his fellow disciples who couldn't get the spoils, Old Monster Chi Lei could always brush it off by saying that "Hua Wuji owes me a favor."
"Old fox," Hua Wuji muttered to himself.
Patiently sipping tea and waiting for the old monster Chi Lei to depart, Hua Wuji was quite relaxed.
But just as Li Ping opened his divine sense, his body suddenly trembled. Just now, he sensed a divine sense that was no less powerful than his own sweeping across this area.
"Who is it?"
Hua Wuji frowned, and his vast divine sense spread out.
Then he saw that Li Jingyu, the "Blood River Demon," whose infamous reputation had spread throughout the Western Wilderness and who was considered the most monstrous of demons, suddenly used earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a technique in Chinese mythology) to emerge from underground, intending to forcibly kill the Crimson Thunder Monster.
"Oh no, Chi Lei is doomed!" Hua Wuji roared in fury, "Damn the Guardian Alliance! When did they discover that Chi Lei belongs to a Saintly Dao cultivator?! Well, they actually impersonated Li Jingyu and came straight to our doorstep! They're courting death!"
Whoosh!
He leaped into the air, transforming into a streak of light as he shot towards the stone pool where the Crimson Thunder Monster was resting.
……
A flash of earthy yellow light appeared, and Li Ping's figure appeared less than ten feet away from the Crimson Thunder Monster.
Without saying a word, he rubbed his hands together.
A golden light flew out from his palm, transforming into a golden guillotine that hovered in the air.
The commotion he caused had already alerted the Crimson Thunder Monster by the pool.
"Li Jingyu!" His face was full of disbelief.
He immediately stopped refining the talisman and waved his hand to create several layers of protective shields for himself to prevent being ambushed.
Then, it opened its mouth again and spat out a cane wreathed in purple lightning.
But just as he finished doing all this and before he could even check the specific situation, he was shocked to find that he couldn't move.
When Old Monster Chi Lei scanned the area with his divine sense, he discovered that, in addition to Li Jingyu in front of him, another figure in black robes had appeared behind him at some point.
It was this person's radiant light that bound him, and the mirror this person wielded also looked strangely familiar to him.
"Zhou Lingyan, you wretched maid, you really did get involved with Li Jingyu."
Because Xuan Yi was completely shrouded in a black robe that shielded his divine sense, Old Monster Chi Lei did not know that the one attacking him was a puppet, but instead thought it was his good junior sister.
However, he was, after all, a mid-stage Core Formation cultivator, and the Lotus Mirror could only slightly slow down his movements. With a slight struggle, he broke free from the light.
"cut!"
But before Old Monster Crimson Thunder could even feel relieved, a cold shout rang in his ears.
Immediately, a golden light appeared in front of him as if teleporting, and slashed directly at his neck.
"not good!"
With a thought, the old monster Crimson Thunder suddenly appeared in front of the golden light, colliding with it.
"Boom!"
A sickening clanging sound rang in his ears. When the golden light was repelled, the Crimson Thunder Monster looked at his natal thunder staff again and was horrified to find that a deep gash had been cut into it.
Moreover, the Thunder Staff appeared dim and its spiritual power greatly diminished.
However, he didn't have time to feel sorry for his natal magic weapon.
Behind him, two sword lights, one blood red and one dark black, were already stabbing towards him like swimming fish.
"puff!"
Without hesitation, Old Monster Crimson Thunder bit his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood onto his natal magic weapon, causing the originally dim magic weapon to shine brightly again.
As long as I can hold on, when Hua Wuji arrives, I will not only avoid death, but I might even be able to obtain the Yin-Yang Star Flame from Li Jingyu.
"But what kind of magic weapon is that? It almost destroyed the Heavenly Thunder Staff!" Thinking of his natal magic weapon, Old Monster Crimson Thunder couldn't help but feel heartache.
"Cut again!"
The guillotine flew backward, but quickly regained its footing and then transformed into a golden light, slashing towards the Crimson Thunder Monster once more.
