"It's really an attack on the soul!"
Li Yan felt relieved when he felt the fluctuations in his soul.
As the body charged forward, the right hand clenched into a fist, the elbow suddenly raised, the tip of the elbow suddenly thrust forward, and the palm of the left hand also violently hit the right fist.
At the same time, he, who had already turned into an afterimage, stomped heavily on the void with his left foot again, and a burst of air pushed his body out.
In Li Yan's emotionless eyes, the figure of the sinister middle-aged man instantly magnified, and he could clearly see the expression of disbelief on the other's face.
The physical cultivation focuses on the muscles and bones, unlike the powerful magic cultivation like Shangguan Tianque, which cultivates inner and ethereal things such as mental strength, and even the soul.
The attacker was obviously a physical cultivator. His magic power, mental power, and soul should be inferior to those of a magic cultivator. He should not be like a lifeless puppet shell under the attack of the copper bell.
"This... What's going on, he is... a puppet!"
The sinister middle-aged man was stunned when he saw Li Yan ignore the spiritual attack and suddenly appeared in front of him. He had this thought in mind.
Li Yan's violent attack had already reached his chest, and he still used the most brutal and oppressive attack method.
In this situation that no one had expected, it was too late for the sinister middle-aged man to use other defenses.
Before, the four of them were suppressing Shangguan Tianque and the other two, and they had the upper hand. They basically suppressed the opponent with offense and did not fully launch defense.
"boom!"
Another sonic boom was heard, short and explosive.
Li Yan rose into the air for two breaths, and a large amount of blood mist exploded in the air again!
"ah… "
"No!"
Two shrill screams rang out almost at the same time, but just as the screams began, they were stopped abruptly by the explosion of a cloud of blood mist.
Another scream came from the fat woman, but she was powerless to help.
Before, when Mang Yan was killed instantly, everyone here reacted, but their reactions were different.
When Shangguan Tianque saw Li Yan make a sudden turn and rush towards the sinister middle-aged man again, he did not discuss it with the beautiful woman in red at all. He was shocked and his magic spells came out.
Thousands of years of fighting enabled them to react immediately. They entangled the other two women in time and sent a message to Li Yan at the same time.
But what happened next was even more outrageous. Li Yan was not afraid of the attack from the sinister man at all. Just as Shangguan Tianque's message fell, the matter of life and death was decided.
Li Yan was unable to use his spiritual sense. For every attack, he required himself to achieve the desired result in one blow, almost unleashing all the strength in his body.
The moment Li Yan's elbow touched the other's chest, the sinister middle-aged man's back instantly rose high like a turtle, and his neck also stretched forward a long distance.
Fragments of protective aura burst out from around Li Yan's elbows, and with one blow he smashed the opponent's body. Then, Li Yan's entire body rushed into the opponent's "body".
"Bang" the sky was full of blood mist like rain, Li Yan and himself left a long afterimage, and broke through the blood mist, leaving a series of red shadows in the blood mist behind him.
And in the distant sky, there was a flash of golden light which then disappeared.
Li Yan sighed in his heart. A sneak attack can only be carried out when the enemy is unprepared. Although the sinister man did not activate all his defenses, he was already prepared when Mang Yan was killed.
The moment the opponent's body exploded, his Nascent Soul had already quickly fled away. Once the teleportation was activated, even if Li Yan was in his prime, he would not be sure of being able to stop the opponent.
As Li Yan sighed, he stretched out his arm and took a copper bell and three rings into his palm. In an instant, his body fell straight to the ground like a meteor.
"boom!"
In the flying dust on the ground below, only four people were left fighting fiercely in the sky.
Senior brother and sister Shangguan Tianque also seized the opportunity. Without the opponent's magic weapon to suppress them, their offensive spread like a tide. They didn't even say hello to Li Yan, and immediately counterattacked the opponent.
Of the two women on the opposite side, only one was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul and the other was in the late stage of the Nascent Soul. Now was a good time to give the fallen dog a beating.
The group of "Pojun Sect" disciples below stared blankly at the back of the sect, where dust was flying everywhere. Although they had different expressions, they were all in a daze.
After a few breaths, every area began to buzz.
"I... I saw something..."
"It flew up into the sky from the rear area of the sect, in an instant... in an instant..."
"That...that...is it a human or a monster?"
"So strong, is it a peerless beast raised by the sect?"
All of them were gone in just two breaths. They only heard the sound of an explosion, and then there seemed to be a shadow floating above them for a moment, and then... then it fell without a trace...
In the sky, the figures of two Nascent Soul cultivators were missing. Everything seemed like a dream. Everyone was dazzled. The situation in the air had changed drastically.
At the back of the "Pojunmen" sect, Yu Banjiang, who had been blown away by the gust of air before, had just turned over and stood up. He was dizzy and his head was spinning, but he desperately tried to release his spiritual sense to explore the sky.
Then, there was another loud bang and a lot of dust flew up. The surrounding caves were shaking violently and had not stopped yet. The ground began to shake again and he sat down on the ground again.
Then, he saw a figure in his consciousness. The man's legs were deeply inserted into the ground. After slightly bending his knees, he slowly stood up in a cloud of smoke and dust.
“Li… Li… Li…”
Yu Banjiang's lips trembled, and he uttered several words in succession, but he couldn't even say "Elder Li".
Li Yan, who was shrouded in smoke and dust, looked up at the sky, then turned around and walked into the cave. His voice could be heard from afar.
"If you have nothing to do, don't disturb me from practicing!!"
There was a sense of indifference in his voice, as if it could be connected to the previous question he asked Yu Banjiang, "Is it allowed to kill people here?"
Before he finished speaking, the door of Li Yan's cave made a rumbling sound again and then closed.
Yu Banjiang, who was far away, was trembling all over. He was in a state of unreality and muttered to himself.
"I... I brought back... what kind of ferocious beast did I bring back? Is this the monk who ascended from the lower realm?"
He was of course well aware of how powerful Mang Yan was. His master had fought with him for thousands of years but had not been able to gain any advantage.
But I came to the rear of the sect only with despair in my heart, and the other party just flew and fell. He was as powerful as the rock that never falls, and he died just like that
When did a Nascent Soul cultivator become as fragile as a baby? In the blink of an eye, the two Nascent Soul cultivators disappeared without a trace, and in the wind-blown smoke and dust, only Yu Banjiang, who was extremely disheveled in the wind, was left behind...
After Li Yan returned to the cave, there was not much expression on his face. He closed the door of the training room again and immediately sat down cross-legged.
Only at this moment did he let out a soft sigh. Unable to use his spiritual sense, he was like a reckless man, an uncivilized beast who could only fight on instinct.
Fortunately, his "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique" has reached the peak of the sixth level, with the bonus of the "Immortal Phoenix" essence and blood.
His physical strength has reached an incredible level of power. Without a valuable defensive weapon, those below the Spiritual Transformation stage would not be able to withstand any of his attacks.
For Li Yan, that kind of pure magic power protection was no different from paper and clay. Li Yan didn't know what the real power of a cultivator in the Spiritualization Realm was, so he couldn't guess how strong his real physical strength was. After the battle with the Spiritualization Realm cultivator Xue Longzi, Li Yan's understanding of the power of the law had already surpassed the Nascent Soul Realm, but he hadn't fully comprehended it, otherwise, he would have broken through again.
That would be another breakthrough in a great realm, and he had only entered the late Nascent Soul stage for a few decades. This kind of cultivation speed would probably make Dong Fuyi stare with eyes wide open and speechless after seeing it.
However, Li Yan also knew that even though he had this kind of understanding, to truly break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm, even if his injuries were healed and he devoted all his energy to gaining insights in seclusion, he would still need a certain amount of opportunity to break through.
That breakthrough is the true transformation from a human to a "god". Many monks are stuck here, searching for it for hundreds of years. Therefore, Li Yan will not be too obsessed with this matter.
"I'd better stabilize my sea of consciousness as soon as possible and see if I can extract the 'True Essence Pill'!"
Li Yan put aside all the uncomfortable feelings he had during the fight just now, slowly closed his eyes again, and practiced the Guishui Sutra.
… …
As for the outside world, without the help of two late Nascent Soul cultivators, the two girls from the Dragon Capturing Sect were no match for them. Moreover, brother and sister Shangguan Tianque were not kind people to begin with.
They were able to lead the "Pojun Sect" to break out of the encirclement and keep the sect standing for thousands of years. The two of them had countless people's blood on their hands.
Today was even more dangerous, and they almost died, which made the two of them feel shocked, angry, and scared.
When they saw a good opportunity, even though the two had been seriously injured before, they didn't care at all for the moment, and used all their magical powers to show their iron-blooded side.
However, as Shangguan Tianque and the other man were injured, they were unable to win immediately. The two sides fought until the sky and the earth changed color and the wind and clouds cleared.
Less than half an incense stick later, the fat woman in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul was killed and her soul was destroyed.
The enchanting woman, disregarding everything, used her powerful trump card magical power and escaped while coughing up blood.
While Senior Brother and Sister Shangguan Tianque swallowed the pills, they chased after them, if there was no one else in the other sect.
Even if the sinister man who escaped was included, there were only two Nascent Soul cultivators left, and one had lost his physical body and the other was seriously injured. This was a good opportunity to add insult to injury.
In comparison, their injuries were relatively minor, so they naturally didn't want to miss this good opportunity...
Half a day later, the "Qinlong Sect" was destroyed, and all the disciples in the sect were killed. Only some disciples outside the sect temporarily escaped.
The sinister middle-aged man, with only his Nascent Soul left, did not flee back to the "Dragon Capturing Sect", but his Nascent Soul escaped to another place and disappeared.
This is easy to understand. They are just guest elders. They saw Mang Yan being killed and they had lost their physical bodies. Moreover, a terrifying and powerful man suddenly appeared from the "Pojun Gate".
He had already decided that the "Dragon Capturing Sect" was finished, and he even ignored his companion, the fat woman. The hearts of people in the world of cultivation were unpredictable, and after he only had one Nascent Soul left, he no longer trusted anyone.
As for the enchanting woman from the "Qinlong Sect", after she flew back to the sect, she immediately activated the sect protection formation.
Unfortunately, she was seriously injured and could not withstand the continuous bombardment from two monks of the same level.
In the end, even though she looked like a ghost, she burned her blood and infant fire power desperately amidst the shrill cursing, and finally the formation was broken and the sect was destroyed.
She herself was already at the end of her strength at that time, and when the great sect protection formation connected with her mind was destroyed, she also died at the same time. She did manage to be an immortal ancestor of the sect and fought until her last breath.
The world of cultivation is cruel, especially for small third- or fourth-rate sects like theirs. They are struggling at the bottom, surrounded by wolves who are eyeing them covetously. If they are not careful, they will end up being crushed to pieces.
If it weren't for the unknown incident of Li Yan, the "Pojun Sect" would have been trying to find out the news about the other party. Finally, when they were 60% sure, they broke into the gate and attacked.
If nothing unexpected happens, the "Pojun Sect" will be the one to be exterminated today, and Shangguan Tianque and the other two, as well as no one from all the sects will survive.
After destroying the "Qinlong Sect", Shangguan Tianque took action and immediately set up a large formation at the "Qinlong Sect".
He then quickly gathered disciples from within the sect, and under the leadership of his senior brother and sister, they began to plant flags one by one in the territory of the "Dragon Capturing Sect".
Those places with cultivation resources were still guarded by monks from the "Dragon Capturing Sect". They quickly cleared them out one by one and replaced them with disciples from their own sect to guard them.
It was not until that night that Shangguan Tianque and the other man returned to the sect. Only a few days later, a letter from the "Blood Lantern Sect" was sent to the "Pojun Sect", summoning Shangguan Tianque to leave.
It was not until half a month later that Shangguan Tianque returned to the sect with a tired look on his face. It was quite far away from the "Blood Lamp Sect" and he had no time to rest at all, but there were flashes of brilliance in his eyes.
At the top of the mountain, a gentle breeze blew gently. Under the giant pine tree, two figures, one red and one yellow, stood in the clouds, their clothes fluttering in the wind, like fairies in a painting.
The beautiful woman in red looked at Shangguan Tianque, who had a tired face, and her eyes were full of tenderness.
"So, we only need to pay 40% of the previous offerings from the 'Dragon Hunting Sect' every year, and the matter will be settled? But this is too dark. Normally, each sect only pays 20% of its resources every year!"
There was resentment in the tone of the beautiful woman in red.
"This was after we had the excuse. I took out the Guiyin Jade Slips that recorded the incident. After they checked it over and over again, they confirmed that it was the 'Dragon Capturing Sect' that instigated the incident, so they gave us the opportunity.
The final handling method was a bit dark, but at least we were not punished. Moreover, after we took out these offerings, the Blood Lamp Sect also issued a decree.
The sects below are not allowed to provoke trouble innocently again, otherwise, any party will be severely punished. This is a disguised way of protecting the territory we have just seized.
Besides, you and I are both injured now. If there are provocations from other sects, it will definitely not be a good thing for us. "
Shangguan Tianque rubbed his brows. Bargaining with the "Blood Lamp Sect" was no easier than fighting. He could not suffer any loss, nor could he anger the sect.
"By the way, where is Elder Li?"
Shangguan Tianque then changed the subject. After hearing this, the beautiful woman in red shook her head slightly and looked at the sea of clouds in front of her.
"I sent him a few more messages, asking if he was free to chat, but I didn't get any response from him. This guy has a weird temper. He didn't even take the opportunity to propose conditions or ask for benefits!"
After the battle, they certainly wanted to talk to Li Yan about something. After Li Yan recovered slightly from his injuries, the woman in red contacted Li Yan several times when Shangguan Tianque was not around.
Unexpectedly, the other party ignored her at all. In the past, it was always the senior brother who communicated with the other party. She really didn't know what kind of character Li Yan had.
"After reading the Guiyin Jade Slip, the 'Blood Lamp Sect' also inquired about Elder Li's background, and even had the intention of recruiting him..."
"Ah! This... How can this be possible? We must keep this person no matter what!"
This time, before Shangguan Tianque could finish his words, the beautiful woman in red suddenly withdrew her gaze, anger revealed in her sharp eyes. The "Blood Lamp Sect" really thought about it.
In order to recruit Li Yan into the sect, the sect had provided him with nothing but a cave to help him train and recover over the years. It was not that they did not want to give him any resources, but that he had simply never asked for them.
The two of them had briefly discussed the matter and soon came up with an answer, which was that Li Yan was a cautious person and was not very trusting of outsiders, so he would not ask for the finished pills.
Moreover, the other party was probably not good at refining pills, so he didn't even mention the raw materials for refining pills.
Both of them are old monsters who are more than a thousand years old. Judging from the overall situation, their analysis is very close to the facts.
But even in this situation, Li Yan still helped, and his fighting power was so strong that no sect would be willing to let go of such a person.
And the "Blood Lamp Sect" actually wanted to poach Li Yan after seeing the jade slip of the photo of Li Yan's attack.
How could the woman in red not be angry and worried at the same time
