Becoming a Saint by Touching Corpses - Chapter 399 - 397: A Twist of Fate
Chapter 399: Chapter 397: A Twist of Fate
Without any surprise, Lou Yi’s fist directly hit Elder Wang’s chest.
In the next moment, a gray spiritual light erupted on the opponent’s surface.
The protective spiritual light at the Foundation Establishment level, even if standing motionless, is difficult for ordinary cultivators at the peak of Qi Refining to break.
But in the face of Lou Yi, who was unstoppable at that moment, it only held for an instant before being ruthlessly pierced!
“Ah!!”
Elder Wang let out a miserable scream, his chest visibly caved in.
However, Lou Yi’s strength only penetrated a small portion.
Elder Wang’s body exploded with a ’boom,’ transforming into a black light and swiftly moved hundreds of yards away.
The place where he originally stood lay quietly a broken grass figurine, which unexpectedly shed a large amount of blood, looking bizarre and terrifying.
“Damn body cultivator, you destroyed my Life Replacement Puppet!” Elder Wang spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
His face turned pale as well, his eyes revealing a look of extreme malice.
Not only did he lose an extremely valuable life-saving item, but he was also severely injured, nearly harming his origin.
After all, the Life Replacement Puppet can only act as a substitute for death but cannot completely block damage.
“Ghost Shoulder Slap!”
Elder Wang roared angrily, his whole body surged with spiritual essence, and a more than ten-foot-long translucent black giant hand suddenly appeared in mid-air.
The giant hand had clear textures, discernible joints, and inside ran dense black threads, like blood vessels.
It swept towards Lou Yi’s location with great momentum!
Below, the expansive space seemed to solidify under the pressure, making it difficult for ordinary people to move an inch!
But Lou Yi merely bent his knees slightly and shot through the air’s obstruction like an arrow off the bowstring.
With a ’bang,’ he bounced hundreds of yards away, easily avoiding the giant hand’s attack.
’Boom!’
The giant hand descended, crushing the extensive ground into a hollow.
Sand and stones flew, thick smoke billowed, making the scene even more chaotic, and everyone’s vision was once again obscured.
After the one failed strike, the giant hand lifted again and fiercely struck at Lou Yi, who appeared like a mere insect.
However, Lou Yi activated his Swift Talent, continuously dodging.
With his supersonic physique, spiritual sense, and reaction speed far exceeding the peak of Qi Refining.
He deftly maneuvered within the Foundation Establishment magic of Elder Wang, consistently dodging the giant hand’s attacks effectively.
’Should I seize the opportunity to finish him off?’
While dodging, Lou Yi still had time to ponder.
Even though the Blood Shadow was completely consumed, he still possessed the Li Family’s Nine Palace Array Plate and dozens of Yin Thunder Seeds, not without a chance.
But seeing the more than ten Yin Light Shields appearing around Elder Wang, tightly and rapidly rotating, guarding against all angles, nearly without any blind spots.
Beside him, a silver Lifebound Corpse was also released, sticking close to Elder Wang.
Moreover, he held a mysterious yellow talisman, exuding a dangerous aura that made one’s heart race.
Lou Yi realized he had lost the best opportunity.
His current cultivation, after all, still had a significant gap with a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator.
His opponent was prepared, taking risks at this stage treating his life carelessly.
But this ambush, having consumed an extremely valuable death substitute and severely injuring the opponent, was not without rewards.
Lou Yi did not expect to defeat the Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator in one go.
Moreover, he had already seen the hope of truly contending against Foundation Establishment.
With a close-range ambush, currently, he could pose a life threat to Foundation Establishment; could direct confrontation be far off?
So be it, for now, let’s collect some interest, and next time shall be his day of demise.
Thinking of this, Lou Yi intentionally allowed himself to be grazed during Elder Wang’s next Ghost Shoulder Slap spell, his body completely sinking into the ground.
But when Elder Wang sent the Lifebound Corpse to investigate, he found that Lou Yi had already vanished without a trace, leaving no signs behind.
“Damn True Blood Sect body cultivator!” Elder Wang deeply hated.
He never expected the ambusher to be Lou Yi, the junior who had just broken through to the Qi Cultivation Middle Stage.
He only thought it was the True Blood Sect body cultivator and Yellow Springs evil cultivator working together, causing him to nearly fall into a trap.
After all, Lou Yi’s recent dazzling silver body seemed akin to a method long spread in the True Blood Sect.
Moreover, having lived for hundreds of years, he indeed had conflicts with several old figures in the True Blood Sect.
“Bitch, die!”
Elder Wang vented all his anger on Yellow Springs Sect’s Elder, the Bone-Erosion Enchantress.
He had now recovered some primordial qi, and four black array flags were buzzing with tremors.
The Four Directions Fiend Prison exerted power once again, endless ghost faces, human hands, and Blood Shadows surged towards the trapped Bone-Erosion Enchantress to drain her spiritual essence and spirit.
At the same time, the Patriarch of the Gu Family used some sort of secret method.
Instantly enhancing the speed and power of the Peach Wood Sword, nearly cutting the unresponsive Bone-Erosion Enchantress in half!
Facing the simultaneous siege of two Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators of the same level, the Bone-Erosion Enchantress struggled greatly, her aura weakening increasingly.
Seeing that under such conditions, she would inevitably fall.
A savage look appeared on the Bone-Erosion Enchantress’s face, her whole body surging as if boiling, her aura soaring to its peak within an instant, seemingly about to unleash an unprecedented powerful move.
Seeing this, both Elder Wang and the Patriarch of the Gu Family became solemn, simultaneously slowed their offensive, and strengthened the defense around them.
’Splat!’
Yet they saw the Bone-Erosion Enchantress transform into a dense black-red blood light, breaking through the Four Directions Fiend Prison at world-destroying speed, escaping to a far distance in an instant.
“Blood Escape Technique? This bitch is decisive.” Elder Wang spoke coldly.
His mind constantly observed the surroundings, fearing that insidious body cultivator would approach again.
Meanwhile, his friend, the Patriarch of the Gu Family, had an extremely unpleasant expression.
He looked at the auction venue riddled with damage and countless casualties below, feeling his heart bleed.
Originally thinking it was simply helping a friend, now it shook the very foundation of the Gu Family.
“Alas…” At this point, the Patriarch of the Gu Family, unwilling to blame Elder Wang, could only accept his bad luck.
They were each preoccupied with their thoughts and paid no attention to the corpses that had already died, each becoming skin and bones like mummified corpses, clearly drained of blood by some evil technique.
Elsewhere.
In a dense thicket over twenty miles from Qinglong Mountain.
A disheveled figure was quietly concealed within.
“Cursed Wang Hongyue, Gu Tiandeng, once I recover, I will slaughter your families entirely; only then can I ease the hatred in my heart!”
The thirteenth elder of the Yellow Springs Sect, the enchanting female cultivator known as the ’Bone-Erosion Enchantress.’
At this moment, her skin hung loose, wrinkles appearing, seeming to age decades.
Clearly her condition was so poor, she couldn’t even maintain her appearance!
The Bone-Erosion Enchantress gritted her teeth, urgently working to recover.
With her greatly reduced strength, she failed to notice.
On the ground over ten feet behind her, a fissure suddenly opened, and a figure emerged silently.
The figure darted towards her like lightning.
’Bang!’
By the time the Bone-Erosion Enchantress heard the astounding air explosion sound.
The figure was already before her, flashing blinding silver light, with a punch like the creation of heaven fiercely smashing down!
“No!!!”
The Bone-Erosion Enchantress frantically amassed spiritual essence, forming a thick shield of light on her body’s surface.
But under the unmatched force, it shattered like fragile tofu.
She had no substitute for death, and so her body exploded under the punch.
Only a green humanoid light cluster leaped out, attempting to flee afar.
“Armor-Piercing.”
Just then, the green light cluster heard a low chant.
“Ah!”
An irresistible sharp energy surged in, making the green light cluster feel as if undergoing a thousand cuts, fluctuating like a flame in the wind, ultimately bursting open with a ’boom’!
…
