Chapter 297: He didn’t know if it would be easy to kill!
Sheng Qin was a female beauty.
She had an extremely rare special constitution. Other than dual cultivation, it also had a high affinity for spirit energy.
Coupled with the Divine Light Sutra, two complemented each other, and the cultivation speed was shocking.
Normal cultivators needed at least six to seven years to reach the foundation establishment realm. Ten years could be considered normal.
But Aqin had only cultivated less than a year.
This speed was simply outrageous.
Li Ran’s eyes shone with golden light as he activated the Disillusioned Eye and carefully observed her condition.
She sucked a large amount of spirit energy into her body. Following the path of the Divine Light Sutra, it finally gathered in her dantian and was constantly being compressed.
Spirit energy in her dantian grew denser and denser. It was changing from a gaseous state to a liquid state.
As long as the spirit energy was liquefied, it meant that the foundation establishment realm was successful.
Her aura is stable, rising steadily. Aqin actually went so smoothly, not even needing the Marrow Cleansing Pill. Li Ran was a little surprised.
He didn’t expect that Aqin would be able to improve so quickly and that her foundation would be so stable. It seemed that she had put in a lot of effort.
Right at this moment, he frowned and suddenly looked out the window.
Two powerful auras were rapidly approaching.
Enemy’s target was the dragon carriage, and the aura within it caused him to faintly feel slightly shocked!
“They really did come…”
Aura wasn’t concealed at all, and it instantly crossed a distance of 50km before stopping in the sky above the dragon carriage.
As for Aqin, he had yet to succeed.
Li Ran scattered down a few formations and put the Azure Profound Armor on her body before leaving the carriage and soaring into the sky.
Two men floated in front of him.
A gray-robed man and a black-robed man.
Leader of the group, the grey-robed old man, emitted a dense aura of death. His bloodshot eyes stared fixedly at him.
It was as if they had a deep hatred for each other.
Li Ran instantly guessed their identities as he looked at the aged face and the unique aura of decay.
Yin Corpse Dao.
It was most likely for the sake of Ji Xingyun.
Gray-robed old man’s voice was hoarse. “Sheng Zi Li, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”
“I’m sorry to keep everyone waiting,” Li Ran said indifferently.
Gray-robed old man was stunned for a moment before frowning. “You don’t seem to be surprised at all?”
“Of course.” Li Ran smiled. “From the looks of it, are you all here to avenge Chief Ji?”
Gray-robed old man sneered, “Sheng Zi Li is indeed a smart person. This old man is the third Elder of Yin Corpse Dao, Ji Liang. Ji Xingyun is my son!”
Li Ran nodded. “So it’s Elder Ji. Why hasn’t your sect leader come?”
Ji Liang thought of something, and his expression was a little unnatural. “We don’t need the Sect Master to personally take action for such a small matter.”
Li Ran shook his head and said, “I think Elder Ji is hiding from the sect leader and acting on his own, right?”
Ji Liang’s breathing froze.
Other party did not guess wrong. He had indeed acted without permission.
Ji Chenyuan had been hesitant about revenge.
However, ever since the Immortal Ascension Assembly, he seemed to have received some news, and his entire person had turned abnormal.
Disciples and Elders were strictly forbidden from finding trouble with Li Ran.
This was especially true for Ji Liang, who had repeatedly warned him to put the bigger picture first.
But how could Ji Liang endure if his beloved son was seriously injured and the path to immortality was almost cut off?
He ordered people to stay outside the city day and night, waiting for Li Ran to leave the city.
Ji Liang said in a low voice, “My son’s Divine Soul has been damaged. Is it your doing or not?”
“That’s right. I did it.” Li Ran was very calm. “Right, is Chief Ji dead or not? Back then, he was too far away. I didn’t have the confidence that I could kill him.”
His tone carried a hint of provocation and ridicule.
Gray-robed elder gnashed his teeth, his entire body trembling.
This kid actually dared to be so arrogant in front of me!
“You’re just like the rumors. You’re arrogant to the extreme. Do you really think this old man doesn’t dare to kill you?” His voice was filled with killing intent.
Li Ran said indifferently, “Then what are you waiting for?”
Air immediately became murderous.
Gray-robed old man did not say anything else. He gritted his teeth and said, “Go, kill him for me!”
“Yes,” the black-robed man behind him responded.
Vast gray mist surged out from his sleeve and instantly filled the entire heavens and the earth, directly enveloping Li Ran!
Mist seemed to be boundless. There was no end in any direction.
It cut off all senses from the outside world, and even the divine sense was unable to pass through the gray fog.
Mist continued to corrode his body, and his life force was rapidly draining away.
At this speed, he would turn into a dried corpse within half a stick of incense!
“Deity Transformation?” Li Ran’s eyes flickered.
This was the first time he had fought against a Deity Transformation major power. His heart was filled with excitement.
“The soul and the dao merge? I wonder if it’s that easy to kill!” He pressed his palms together, his index finger and thumb standing upright, and the other fingers pressed together.
“Lin… Bing… Dou…!”
Power of the nine words rippled, and the brilliant divine light instantly pierced through the thick fog.
His body became transparent like jade, and he could practically see his bones and meridians. His vitality was endless, and no matter how the gray mist surged, it could not corrode him in the slightest.
Roar!
At this moment, roars rang out from the gray mist as if ferocious beasts were surrounding them.
Li Ran opened the Disillusioned Eye, and the thick mist finally dimmed slightly. A shocking scene appeared before his eyes.
There were countless corpse golems hidden within the mist. Their lifeless eyes were green and white as they stared fixedly at him!
Roar!
Corpse Puppets howled towards the sky, letting out meaningless roars as they madly swept toward him.
Boundless sea of corpses instantly drowned Li Ran. Outside the gray fog, the black-robed man’s expression was cold.
He knew that Li Ran was not someone easy to deal with. His strength could not be measured solely by his cultivation.
Nascent Soul realm cultivator could kill a Deity Transformation realm. Now that he had reached the Deity Transformation realm, even a late-stage Deity Transformation cultivator would not dare to underestimate him.
Therefore, his first move was a supreme technique, attempting to kill him with a boundless sea of corpses.
Ji Liang’s eyes narrowed slightly.
If the black-robed man could kill Li Ran, then it would be the best.
If he didn’t personally take action, it wouldn’t be considered as defying the grandmaster’s orders.
“Let’s end this battle quickly. Don’t delay, or you’ll suffer!”
Black-robed man nodded. “Elder, don’t worry. Under the Deity Transformation, no one can resist the gray fog of the sea of corpses”
Before he could finish speaking, thunderous sounds could be heard from the gray mist:
Moo!
A dazzling Buddhist light erupted as if the sun had pierced through the thick mist. A furious glint appeared out of thin air.
Raising his arm high up, the golden light sword slashed down.
Mist was instantly dispersed by the hurricane, and the boundless sea of corpses was severed with a single slash.
Li Ran’s body was suspended in the air, his skin shining like jade. His dao techniques and Buddhist light complemented each other.
He looked at the black-robed man with cold eyes and a fierce smile.
“Have you had enough fun? It’s my turn!”
Black-robed man stared blankly. Before he could regain his senses, his body was suddenly covered by a shadow.
Raising his head, his pupils contracted.
A huge golden fist filled his field of vision, carrying a fierce wind as it smashed toward him.
Boom!
Air was almost shattered by one punch.
