Chapter 91: Dharma King, Don’t Forget Your Promised Reward
“Splash!”
With the blood sacrifice, plus the magic energy from a Five Seas Realm Martial Cultivator urging it on, the Three-headed Snake Blood Soul flew out from the bracelet.
When Director Yang performed the blood sacrifice, the Three-headed Snake Blood Soul that flew out was only a wisp, about bowl mouth thick and six or seven meters long, extremely faint.
But under Yin Twenty-Four’s urging, the blood soul that flew out from the bracelet was actually over ten meters long, as thick as a water bucket, with an extremely solid body, scales like cast metal.
The entire courtyard was filled with vitality.
The blood soul had three heads, fighting together with the Ghost General holding the Phoenix Beak Saber, and in a moment, it swallowed it into its abdomen in one bite.
“Boom!”
The Three-headed Snake Blood Soul suddenly rushed out, and the Thirty-Three Character Departed Spirit Battle Formation opposite instantly collapsed, with all thirty-three green-robed eunuchs thrown flying, dying on the spot by more than half.
Yin Twenty-Four mobilized even stronger magic energy to urge the Three-headed Snake Bracelet, and immediately, the blood in the corpses on the ground turned into streams of vitality streams, continuously flying into the bracelet on her wrist.
The color of the blood jade bracelet became even redder.
Li Weiyi’s eyes were full of shock.
After Yin Twenty-Four recalled the Three-headed Snake Blood Soul into the bracelet, she noticed Li Weiyi’s gaze.
She hurriedly said: “As expected, it’s just a blood soul comparable to the Five Seas Third Realm, but to deal with a Thirty-Three Character Departed Spirit Battle Formation formed by a group of Spring Gushing Realm cultivators, it’s more than enough.”
The more she explained, the less Li Weiyi believed: “How about you return the bracelet to me?”
“This blood sacrifice… it really consumes vitality, extremely harmful to the body, who knows how long it will take to recover…” Yin Twenty-Four showed a weak state, her face suddenly turning pale.
Li Weiyi said: “I’m not completely ignorant about blood sacrifice magic tools? The stronger the enemy faced, the longer the battle time, the greater the vitality consumption. You just had one clash and broke the battle formation, how could it consume to this extent?”
Being exposed, Yin Twenty-Four’s small face showed an embarrassed smile, hiding the bracelet deeper into her sleeve: “Don’t worry, the Radiant Flame Pill is entrusted to me, I’ll definitely gather the money. These seven insects of yours are not simple, five of them together can fight a Five Seas Realm without any chance of retaliation.”
She was too shocked in her heart!
The seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors often sneaked into the Medicinal Cuisine Room to steal medicinal herbs, and she had seen them several times.
Before this, how could Yin Twenty-Four have imagined that Li Weiyi, with his low mind power, possessed seven fierce insects with such formidable combat power?
Seeing Li Weiyi and Yin Twenty-Four both looking at him, Shi Chuan Yu immediately fell into despair.
“Bang!”
Yin Twenty-Four flashed away with the wind, striking his chest with one palm.
Shi Chuan Yu’s body flew out, crashing through a pavilion, buried in the ruins.
“Pfft!”
Li Weiyi descended from the sky, piercing his heart with one sword, nailing him dead to the ground.
“You… you all simply don’t know what kind of storm you… you’ve gotten yourselves into… there won’t be a good end…” Blood kept surging from Shi Chuan Yu’s mouth, the corners of his mouth hooked up, as if he could see the outcome of Li Weiyi and Yin Twenty-Four.
Li Weiyi’s face became solemn…
Then he began to loot the corpses.
This Chang Lin Gang was extremely wealthy, able to casually take out 100,000 silver coins, not comparable to other gangs.
After looting the three gang leaders one by one, Li Weiyi hijacked a Seven Springs Martial Cultivator and rushed to the back courtyard, searching for the gang’s warehouse.
He naturally knew time was urgent, this place couldn’t be stayed long, so he only roughly scavenged, without deep searching.
Arriving at the back courtyard dungeon, Li Weiyi indeed saw that a large number of young girls and children were imprisoned here, all wearing ankle shackles. He was immediately furious, slaying the leading Seven Springs Martial Cultivator with one sword.
Looking at the pairs of pitiful eyes in the dungeon, Li Weiyi momentarily didn’t know what to do. Even if he opened the dungeon and let them out, they fundamentally couldn’t survive alone, and would ultimately either starve to death or fall into the hands of villains.
The sufferings of the mortal world cannot be saved by one person’s power.
Returning to the ground, rushing to the front courtyard.
The seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors had already cleared out all the living people, ensuring no secrets would be exposed.
And Yin Twenty-Four had opened all thirty-two giant boxes on the eight carriages, with purple electric lights emanating from the boxes. Even on the ground, dense earthworm-like electric patterns appeared.
As soon as Li Weiyi approached, electric patterns flew over.
His skin felt numb and painful.
He hurriedly retreated two steps, pulling away the distance.
Only to see, inside the boxes, were blocks of things like purple ice crystals, with brilliant light inside the ice crystals, countless dazzling lightning bolts intertwining within.
Li Weiyi clearly sensed that inside these things was contained extremely terrifying destructive energy.
Yin Twenty-Four retreated even farther than Li Weiyi: “Thunder Law Profound Ice, how could it be this thing, what is the Sui Sect trying to do?”
“This thing feels extremely dangerous. What is it used for?” Li Weiyi had only been in this world for a few months, with too many unknowns.
Yin Twenty-Four said: “To break formations, to attack cities. Thunder Law Profound Ice is collected from the Eight Hundred Li Thunder Sea, it can be called the formation bane. Releasing the energy of any single block in the box can destroy all the buildings in this hundred-acre mansion. Don’t get close, the seal runes on the boxes have been broken by me, they’ve become extremely unstable, a slight shake could activate them.”
Li Weiyi hurriedly retreated several more steps, asking: “Those green-robed eunuchs, have they been interrogated?”
“No need to interrogate, they must be from the Dragon Gate.”
Yin Twenty-Four continued: “Thunder Law Profound Ice is the Lei Xiao Sect’s supreme treasure. It seems the top forces from the Eastern Territory feel the Southern Territory isn’t chaotic enough, and want to add fuel to the fire, making us fight internally and consume ourselves. The Sui Sect’s ambitions are vast, a perfect match.”
Dragon Gate and Lei Xiao Sect, one is the ten million gateways of the Eastern Territory, the other is the ten million sects of the Eastern Territory.
Li Weiyi finally somewhat understood Shi Chuan Yu’s words before death, getting involved in the game between such great powers was indeed extremely dangerous.
Yin Twenty-Four said: “Release all those young girls and children, then trigger the Thunder Law Profound Ice to erase all traces of us being here.”
Li Weiyi’s gaze looked three li away, to an enemy observation tower dozens of zhang high belonging to the City Defense Camp, clearly seeing a dry and skinny figure like a monkey fly directly from the ground to its top, speed fast like a ghost.
The dry and skinny figure stood at the top of the tower, looking around everywhere, searching for something.
Seeing its appearance clearly, Li Weiyi’s face changed abruptly.
At the same time, the Six Desires Talisman on his chest flickered, emitting scalding hot heat.
“Quickly leave!” Li Weiyi said.
Yin Twenty-Four followed his gaze, discovering a dry and thin figure flying down from the top of the enemy observation tower, heading towards the direction of the two of them.
“It’s Shi Liuyu! Definitely the Six Desires Talisman, he can sense my approximate location through the connection with the Six Desires Talisman, he’ll soon find his way here.”
Li Weiyi’s face was extremely ugly, quickly thinking of countermeasures, then pushing Yin Twenty-Four: “You go quickly, leave this place to me.”
Yin Twenty-Four naturally knew what kind of person Shi Liuyu was.
The infamous lecher of the entire Southern Territory, but with terrifyingly high cultivation, the leader of the Earth Wolf King Army.
“If we leave, we leave together.”
She pulled Li Weiyi along.
Li Weiyi said: “Don’t be silly, I can’t escape at all. Besides, fleeing back to Coffin Sea Pavilion at this time would expose too much! I’ll hold him off, you go for reinforcements. Don’t hesitate, once he arrives, you’ll be my weakness.”
Li Weiyi kept pushing her, driving her to the gate.
“Good, wait for me.”
Yin Twenty-Four no longer hesitated, broke through the formation, and rushed out the door.
Only then did the eight Deformed Humanoid Race Martial Cultivators guarding outside the door realize what had happened inside the mansion. Li Weiyi raised his sword and advanced, flashing several times, slaying them all.
Sheathing the sword.
Pushing the two bronze doors fully open.
Li Weiyi stored all kinds of magic tools on his body, including the Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors and the three Five Seas Realm Martial Cultivators’ corpses, into the Blood Mud Space. Then, unhurriedly walking to the back courtyard dungeon, he split open the iron locks on the cell doors, releasing over a hundred young girls and children inside.
…
Shi Liuyu wore a wide gray cloth robe, like a monkey dressed in human clothes, arriving at the mansion gate, seeing the eight corpses on the stone steps, knowing he had finally found the right place.
He did have a sense of the Six Desires Talisman, but this sense was very subtle, only able to judge a general direction.
Once the distance was too far, or the obstruction too great, the sense would disappear.
Before even entering the door, he saw raggedly dressed young girls and children running out from inside one after another.
Shi Liuyu’s eyes lit up, grabbing one of the rather plump young girls, roughly groping her twice, causing a burst of screams and cries, before satisfiedly letting her go.
He walked into the courtyard, discovering Li Weiyi sitting under the eaves, holding a long sword, methodically chopping off the ankle shackles one by one for a group of young girls and children.
Chopping off one, that person quickly fled the mansion.
“Law King is a top strong practitioner of a Jia Zi, why bully these pitiful people?” Li Weiyi didn’t even look up at him.
Shi Liuyu wasn’t in a hurry to act, stepping in the blood mud, looking at the corpses filling the garden: “You kid have quite the killing intent, not leaving a single living soul in the entire gang.”
“Killing dozens to save over a hundred, I feel I’ve profited!” Li Weiyi said.
Shi Liuyu waited until he had chopped off all their ankle shackles and let them all go, before walking over: “You’ve played the good guy, now it’s time to be the bad guy! Tell me, where are the Jiu Li Hidden Sect people?”
Li Weiyi said: “I don’t know.”
“Trying to play tricks with this Law King, you’re still too green.”
Shi Liuyu’s eyes instantly turned icy cold, the ice aura erupting from his body forming a layer of frost on Li Weiyi.
Li Weiyi’s whole body couldn’t move, his skin losing sensation, as if about to freeze to death, hurriedly tremblingly saying: “I really don’t know, if the Jiu Li Hidden Sect was so easily exposed, would the Sui Sect have failed to find their shadow for a thousand years? Would characters at the Jiu Li tribe leader level not know their real situation?”
Shi Liuyu’s eyes were suspicious, pondering darkly for a moment, asking: “Where is the Jiu Li Hidden Sect? What is their strength? Why are you here?”
After Li Weiyi’s body regained freedom, he immediately mobilized magic energy to refine the frost on his body, calmly saying: “The Jiu Li Hidden Sect investigated me, knew about my grudges with the Chang Lin Gang, so they arranged this trial. Fortunately, I’m on good terms with the Cang Li Tribe, so they didn’t suspect my identity.”
Shi Liuyu had been observing Li Weiyi’s eyes and expression, feeling this kid had extraordinary courage and temperament.
If it were other martial cultivators, let alone Spring Gushing Realm, even many Five Seas Realm, stared at by his eyes, would immediately kneel in fright, unable to speak coherently.
Shi Liuyu didn’t know about Li Weiyi’s grudges with the Chang Lin Gang, such a minor Chang Lin Gang wasn’t worth his attention.
He said: “What does trial mean?”
“The Jiu Li Nine Tribes selected a total of twenty-six genius young men this year, sending them to the Jiu Li Hidden Sect, only five qualify to survive and become Hidden Sect disciples. The trial is the way to screen and eliminate.” Li Weiyi said.
“So cruel.”
Shi Liuyu secretly noted this information, perhaps usable to deduce the Hidden Sect’s strength.
Blood surged from Li Weiyi’s mouth, coughing dryly several times: “Of course cruel, I nearly died in this trial, the Chang Lin Gang is full of masters, plus a group of eunuchs… Law King, what is that thing, it seems somewhat dangerous…”
He pointed to those eight carriages.
Shi Liuyu had already gone over to check earlier, angrily rebuking: “Did you destroy the runes on the boxes?”
“What’s wrong with that?”
Li Weiyi feigned ignorance.
Shi Liuyu gnashed his teeth: “Never mind that! Don’t ask about this thing, continue answering this Law King’s questions.”
Shi Liuyu had long heard that the Lei Xiao Sect would provide several batches of Thunder Law Profound Ice to the Sui Sect, to help them break the formations of Jiu Li Dao Academy, Governor’s Mansion, and various tribe mansions.
But he didn’t expect the Sui Sect to be so unreliable, nearly letting a Spring Gushing Realm ruin the Thunder Law Profound Ice.
Not even dispatching Five Seas Realm to guard it?
Li Weiyi said: “To go to the Jiu Li Hidden Sect, a black cloth bag is put over my head, sealing the five senses. Leaving the Hidden Sect, same thing, by the time I remove the bag, I’m already outside the Chang Lin Gang Headquarters.”
“This was within my expectations!”
Shi Liuyu nodded, asking: “From the Jiu Li Hidden Sect to this place, approximately how much time?”
“Mm, hard to say, perception in the black cloth bag is off, I estimate five to seven days… perhaps, about that!” Li Weiyi said.
Shi Liuyu didn’t fully believe Li Weiyi, while collecting information, also judging its truth, continuing to ask: “Exactly where is the Jiu Li Hidden Sect?”
“I don’t know.”
Seeing Shi Liuyu’s eyes stern, and his brow lighting up, Li Weiyi hurriedly said: “Death Spiritual Fire is planted in my head, absolutely don’t use mind power. Otherwise I’ll die on the spot here, and you’ll get no information. It’s lose-lose!”
“Haha, don’t be afraid, just scaring you.”
Shi Liuyu revealed a mouthful of snow-white teeth, immediately sneering again: “Don’t you dare deceive me! If what you say differs even half a word from what Li Qing said, I’ll throw you into the wolf den, where you can’t live or die.”
Li Weiyi pretended to be frightened, racking his brains in recollection and thought, suddenly thinking of something: “The Jiu Li Hidden Sect might be in the Nether Realm of the Dead, on the other side of the Mang Mountain Range, because it’s perpetual night there, extremely heavy yin energy, often with departed spirits appearing.”
Shi Liuyu pondered for a moment, his eyes suddenly lighting up: “A thousand years ago, the Jiu Li occupied the Nine Provinces, eight of which were swallowed by the Nether Realm of the Dead. If the Jiu Li Hidden Sect really exists and can evade the Sui Sect’s eyes and ears, it really might be located in one of those eight provinces… haha, so that’s it, so that’s it… any other information, quickly tell.”
Suddenly.
“Swish!”
An extremely swift afterimage rushed in from outside the door, standing still in the center of the courtyard.
After the figure steadied, it gradually became clear.
It was a Pure Immortal Body Martial Cultivator in his twenties, wearing the Sui Sect core disciple martial robe, with bright and thick magic energy, clearly a Five Seas Realm expert.
Wang Daozhen was a top three expert of the Sui Sect Wang family’s younger generation, looking at the corpses littering the ground, then sharply scanning Shi Liuyu and Li Weiyi, coldly saying: “Junior Sister, something happened!”
Li Weiyi had already heard the carriage sounds outside the door, exotic beast hoof sounds, and a large number of footsteps, knowing Yang Qingxi had returned. Thus, he whispered in Shi Liuyu’s ear: “Law King, it’s been less than two months, don’t forget the reward you promised.”
“Swish! Swish…”
One afterimage after another erupted with extreme speed, entering the mansion like teleportation.
Among them were renowned young generation heavenly prodigies, and elder generation elder-level figures, all with powerful auras, holding magic tools, surrounding the two.
“Rumble!”
A silver horned deer exotic beast as huge as an elephant pulled a magnificent carriage the size of a house, directly driving into the mansion gate.
