Chapter 129: Reunion With The Departed Spirits Of Burial Immortal Town
“You really don’t listen to advice.”
Li Weiyi didn’t even turn around. Blood mist and blood-colored scriptures erupted from his body. In the instant the three demons’ massive bodies closed in, his body spun and flew up. A blood mist vortex centered on him manifested.
The three demons’ attacks instantly lost direction.
Their bodies lost balance, completely unable to resist, flung away by the blood mist vortex, crashing in disarray.
Li Weiyi was too lazy to waste time killing them. After landing, he rushed toward the valley entrance at his fastest speed, only worried that the three top experts of the Five Seas Realm Second Realm from Tian Ya Ridge, Sui Sect, and Coffin Mountain would finish off Zuo Qiu Bai Ming and catch up.
Those three were all first-class figures of their realm, each wielding magic tools of immense power. Facing any one of them was a headache.
The valley entrance was in sight, getting closer and closer.
Suddenly, someone shouted, “Someone’s escaping! Loose arrows!”
Whistling, dense breaking wind sounds came.
“Swish swish!”
Arrows rained down like black dots, densely packed.
There were also covert arrows shot from heavy crossbows, extremely dangerous.
This formation was practically like a battlefield.
Outside the valley, six Five Seas Realm martial cultivators from Sui Sect and San Chen Palace stood in the forest, watching Li Weiyi charging out of the valley entrance continuously swing his saber, knocking away arrows aimed at his face.
He completely ignored the arrow rain aimed at his body.
Strangely, these arrows really couldn’t hurt him.
“What an amazing defensive magic tool battle robe. I want it!”
“Haha, each by their skill. Whoever kills him gets that magic tool battle robe.”
“I want that green yin banner.”
…
Immediately, the three most aggressive Five Seas Realm martial cultivators charged out, all carefully selected top experts of the First Realm. The weakest one was a Deformed Humanoid Race martial cultivator who had broken Eight Springs Five Seas.
The other three followed slowly, not underestimating him.
In today’s battle, they must kill everyone, absolutely no slip-ups.
“Much stronger than those three demonic cultivators.”
Li Weiyi looked at the three approaching with coordinated battle techniques, speed undiminished. He urged the green yin banner in his hand, treating it like a large spear, thrusting fiercely at the Five Seas Realm martial cultivator holding the shield magic tool who was charging at the front.
The yin banner erupted with brilliant green light, departed spirits roaring inside.
That San Chen Palace Five Seas Realm martial cultivator was coming head-on. Feeling the terrifying pressure from Li Weiyi, his expression changed drastically. His legs stepped into a bow stance, spitting out massive magic energy to urge the shield.
A circular light seal with a diameter of one zhang appeared on the shield’s surface.
“Bang!”
The light seal shattered upon touching the magic tool shield.
That San Chen Palace Five Seas Realm martial cultivator was pierced through the body by the yin banner, his physical body exploding into five pieces.
Too overbearing. A same-realm martial cultivator died in one exchange.
That Eight Springs Breaking Five Seas Deformed Humanoid Race martial cultivator swung out a copper-cast magic tool heavy mace.
The mace weighed six thousand jin, smashing straight down on Li Weiyi’s head.
Another even stronger Five Seas Realm female martial cultivator had a slender figure, turning into a phantom, circling to Li Weiyi’s lower right side. Her sword was faster than a beam of light, stabbing toward his waist and abdomen.
Li Weiyi swung his saber with his left hand, clashing with the heavy mace. Sparks flew, magic energy rippling outward like waves.
That Eight Springs Breaking Five Seas Deformed Humanoid Race martial cultivator spat blood, flipped away by the immense force transmitted from the saber.
“What strong power.”
Li Weiyi looked at the damaged magic tool war saber in his hand, praising it, then threw the saber away.
His waist and abdomen ached slightly. He looked down at the Five Seas Realm female martial cultivator who had stabbed with her sword: “Speed is decent, but power too weak. Can’t break my defense.”
That Five Seas Realm female martial cultivator paled in fright. She had never encountered such a bizarre situation.
Her sword’s power wasn’t weak. Even if wearing defensive magic tool battle robe, the penetrating force from the sword tip should at least break his ribs and injure his organs.
“Bang!”
Li Weiyi swung the yin banner, sending her spinning away like a scarecrow. More than a dozen bones in her body shattered, covered in blood, she fell limply to the ground, unable to get up.
The three Five Seas Realm martial cultivators following behind hadn’t even had time to help when the three in front were already defeated.
Some dead, some injured.
They were horrified, caught in a dilemma.
Was this really a Five Seas Realm First Realm martial cultivator?
Even Five Seas Realm Second Realm martial cultivators weren’t this terrifying.
“Boom!”
Chen Song stepped on a magic energy cloud, charging out of the dense forest, descending from mid-air. Wind force qi flows scattered in all directions under his feet.
He was wrapped in departed spirit human skin, looking like a slightly plump old man with disheveled long hair, gaze extremely sharp, locking onto Li Weiyi with battle intent.
Just a slight eye contact, and Li Weiyi instantly gauged his strength—far surpassing Yuan Sheng, even stronger than Chen Ying by a large margin.
Without thinking, Li Weiyi immediately urged his night-walking clothes, exploding his speed to the limit.
He fled into the dense forest on the right.
“Want to escape?”
Chen Song’s wind riding boots were pure speed-type mid-grade magic tools. His figure blurred, riding the wind off the ground in pursuit.
At the same time, a jade bracelet on his wrist spun and flew out.
The spiritual light energy erupting from the jade bracelet tore through the air, chasing to Li Weiyi’s back.
Li Weiyi didn’t dare take it head-on, turning to strike with the green yin banner.
“Boom!”
After the spinning jade bracelet touched the yin banner, it instantly changed direction, smashing toward Li Weiyi’s head.
Li Weiyi broke out in cold sweat, bare-handedly using “Spirit Treasure Seizing,” like transforming into thousand-armed Buddha, grabbing the jade bracelet. But it spun too fast to hold, so he immediately threw it away again.
“Boom!”
The jade bracelet smashed into the ground several zhang away, soil flying, forming a large crater.
Chen Song, catching up, was secretly shocked. He could break a mid-grade magic tool’s attack like this?
He immediately regarded the person before him with utmost seriousness. Battle intent and magic energy mist surged behind him as he punched through the air. The fist shadow was larger than a grinding mill, magic energy surging like tidal waves, layer upon layer.
“Boom!”
Li Weiyi used the yin banner to clash head-on with Chen Song, his body exploding backward, then urging his speed to the limit to flee. In the forest, he encountered intercepting Spring Gushing Realm martial cultivators but didn’t linger, directly smashing them away with his body.
Chen Song landed back on the ground, expression grave. He had never seen such a strong Five Seas Realm First Realm martial cultivator.
Four Five Seas Realm First Realm martial cultivators quickly caught up.
That heavily injured Deformed Humanoid Race martial cultivator said fearfully, “What the hell is he? Really Five Seas Realm First Realm?”
“No departed spirit human skin, definitely Five Seas Realm First Realm. But strength… strong to this extent, must be a successor seed from Zuo Qiu Gatehouse.” Chen Song released a strand of magic energy, rolling back the jade bracelet and putting it back on his wrist.
The four Five Seas Realm First Realm martial cultivators all changed color.
A successor seed held higher status in Zuo Qiu Gatehouse than Zuo Qiu Bai Ming. If he escaped down the mountain, what then?
“Go, chase together! Must cut the grass at the root, if doing it, do it thoroughly.” Chen Song said.
…
“What an amazing Chen Song, as expected of the Nine Springs Supreme Person who opened Zu Tian by his own strength.”
Li Weiyi looked at his bloody left hand, pondering countermeasures.
After all, the yin banner was just a defensive high-grade magic tool, attack power not that strong. But the black iron seal and evil camel bell were different—definitely enough to give him trouble.
In this mysterious, unknown haunted place of Thirty-three Mile Mountain, Li Weiyi didn’t want to go on a killing spree. Otherwise, he would have released the seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors long ago. Who knew if the commotion of a big battle would alarm some departed spirit monsters?
Getting away from that valley was the top priority.
After fleeing for half a shichen, Li Weiyi suddenly stopped, sensing something wrong.
The terrain in the immortal mist had changed greatly. Trees became sparse, ahead was a flat gravel area with dense weeds among the stones, unexpectedly growing clumps of glowing plants.
It was…
Dyeing Cloud Exotic Medicine!
A lot, just within visible range, over a dozen stalks.
Li Weiyi wasn’t entirely joyful, feeling this place was very off. Exotic medicines gathered but unharvested explained many problems.
He released the seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors to pick the Dyeing Cloud Exotic Medicine. He himself stayed vigilant around, guarding against Chen Song who might catch up anytime.
The seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors were delighted, flapping wings toward the gravel area.
But to Li Weiyi’s speechless frustration, each picked one and ate it themselves, no intention of picking for him.
“Can’t rely on you guys at all. Don’t just eat, enemies might catch up anytime.”
In the end, Li Weiyi had to personally pick Dyeing Cloud Exotic Medicine while staying vigilant.
He picked twenty-four stalks in a row, unknowingly entering deep into the gravel area. After the twenty-fifth, he sensed something, slowly raised his head, looking into the depths of the rosy mist. His scalp suddenly went numb.
There,
In the mist dozens of zhang away, densely packed giant head humanoids stood, all motionless, as if watching him.
Li Weiyi urged the yin banner for courage, wrapped in strands of green light gauze, slowly approached. Only up close did he realize it was a giant stone statue forest.
“Phew!”
He let out a long breath, continuing to pick the remaining Dyeing Cloud Exotic Medicine.
But every time he turned his back to that giant stone statue forest, he felt a chill on his back, like pairs of eyes spying on him. Some giant stone statues seemed to have moved forward.
“Illusion, just scaring myself.”
As soon as Li Weiyi said this, from the giant stone statue stone forest, over a dozen black giant head humanoids suddenly rushed out.
Some only 2-3 meters tall, hiding on top of giant stone statues, opening bowl-sized mouths revealing sawtooth teeth, emitting piercing shrill laughter.
Some two-three meters tall, heads larger than water jars, mouths taking a third of the face, eyes without whites, pitch black, constantly emitting black smoke.
When had Li Weiyi ever seen such terrifying unknown living beings?
He turned to flee, but after just dozens of zhang, he saw the seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors flying over in terror.
Li Weiyi looked ahead.
In the direction he came from, over a dozen figures also appeared in the mist. These figures had normal human proportions, but burned with ghost fire. Definitely not Chen Song and the others—no living aura at all.
Caught in a pincer attack, Li Weiyi wanted to cry. Greed again. Shouldn’t have lingered in this gravel area for Dyeing Cloud Exotic Medicine.
He hoped it was Sui Sect and San Chen Palace’s group arriving—worst case, add Tian Ya Ridge and Coffin Mountain’s people.
Li Weiyi’s brow lit up, mobilizing spiritual light bright fire, ready anytime to urge Buddha’s sarira and escape into the blood mud space to avoid disaster.
As the group of normal-proportioned departed spirits approached, Li Weiyi saw their attire and appearances—pale faces of men, women, old, and young, each with a bloody strange character on their forehead.
“This is… that group from Zangxian Town…”
Li Weiyi recognized them.
Back in Zangxian Town, he slit his wrist, sprinkling blood on the streets to summon his guardian wife. Instead, he awakened countless departed spirits from underground, bursting out.
That group of town resident-like departed spirits looked just like this.
Ghost fire all over, blood characters on foreheads.
How did they come to Thirty-three Mile Mountain?
They… seemed to have no hostility!
While Li Weiyi was shocked and uncertain, over a dozen departed spirit townspeople had already stepped on ghost fire past him, fighting the giant headed humanoid monsters pursuing him.
They could absorb immortal radiance, eyes without pupils, only blinding white light. Waving hands shot ghost fire. Regardless of gender or age, all very powerful.
