The road is vague

Chapter 232 First Glimpse of Talent (Part 11)

Li Mo seemed somewhat unwilling to believe it.

He descended to the water's surface and examined the charred corpse in its crane cloak.

Only after he removed the ghost mask from the other person's face and confirmed that the person was indeed Lü Shun did he close his eyes and take a deep breath.

The battle he had just witnessed kept replaying in his mind.

Initially, his main target was the cultivator with the ability to see hidden things, and he sought an opportunity to defeat him while he was fleeing across the lake.

The six people then separated.

The Six Calamities and Six Disasters Formation puppets formed a large array, enveloping the remaining three people.

During this process, although he noticed that one of the three was a fat Taoist priest, he did not think much of it because he was wearing a loose crane cloak and a ghost mask. In the midst of the tense battle, he did not think much of it. After all, there were many fat Taoist priests like this in the Lingmu Sect. Lu Shun had never disguised himself like this before.

Why do you try so hard to hide yourself?

The ghost mask in his hand had lost all its spirit, and Li Mo murmured in anguish.

"Is it to find a way to help me while avoiding future accusations from others, or to avoid putting psychological burden on me and to distance themselves from me, or something else..."

After lingering there for a while, Li Mo gradually composed himself.

He glanced down at the mask in his hand and put it into his spatial ring.

For the sake of the long-term development of Qingming Mountain, for the long-term stability of Bai'an County, and for the immense gratitude owed to his master, he would bravely forge ahead even if it meant facing mountains of knives and seas of fire.

"Feel sorry."

If he were under twenty, he would probably have burst into tears.

He has now quickly adjusted his mindset.

Now is not the time for sentimental attachments.

He gazed toward the main battlefield in the center of Qinglongtan.

There, a fierce battle had been raging for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Both sides were fighting for their ideals and believed they were in the right. A large number of corpses had already fallen into the lake.

He didn't linger any longer and immediately took flight on his sword, heading towards the main battlefield in the center of Qinglongtan.

Two sets of matrix puppets stood on either side of him, and the three flew at high speed, leaving a ripple in the lake water as his flying sword drew a line.

With the continuous replenishment of high-grade spirit stones, the mana in his body has recovered to about 80%.

However, this high-grade spirit stone also lost some of its spiritual power as a result.

Li Mo placed it into the jade box, resealed it, and then stored it in his spatial ring, his eyes filled with unwavering resolve.

As he drew closer to the main battlefield, it became clear that the Justice Society was at a disadvantage.

Fortunately, Wei Cang and Jiang Feiyan were still locked in fierce combat, which relieved him.

He then noticed that three more people had flown in from outside the Azure Dragon Pool's forbidden formation. It turned out to be Ye Shoutian, the head of the Enforcement Hall, leading his men back. His expression immediately turned extremely ugly.

Ye Shoutian stood outside the great formation.

Seeing that the disciples of the Enforcement Hall still hadn't completely controlled the situation, a hint of annoyance appeared on his honest face. But when he thought about how much time he had wasted at the Enforcement Hall and how he hadn't been able to return on time, his annoyance subsided considerably.

These members of the Justice Society were quite well prepared.

After letting out a cold snort, he made a hand seal with one hand, attempting to temporarily suppress the spiritual power within his body in order to deceive everyone.

However, as soon as he approached the spiritual light of the great array, it triggered a reaction from these forbidden spiritual lights. The protective array connected to it seemed to boil over. He sighed and retreated rapidly while pointing at the great array from a distance, as if venting his frustration.

A terrifying burst of earth elemental power erupted, mixed with insights into the Dao of Fire. A lava dragon appeared, shaking its head and wagging its tail, heading straight for the spiritual light of the great array.

boom!
Although this high-level spell was blocked by the power of the formation, it still spread a trace of violent spiritual energy into the formation. As a result, dozens of disciples who were fighting on the lake fell down.

“Lü Jin, Lü Tong”.

"The disciple is here!"

"Lu Zun has already perished in the battle and ultimately failed to break the great formation here. The two of you should try to join forces and continue to break this formation within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."

"Yes!"

The two had just emerged from the hellish Dharma Protectorate, and now they were about to enter this battlefield.

Fortunately, the scale of this battlefield was much smaller than that of the Dharma Protector Hall, and the disciples of the aristocratic families clearly had an absolute advantage. The two of them did not need to participate in the battle and only needed to focus on breaking the formation.

Seeing that the two array masters had already entered the forbidden array that blocked Golden Core cultivators, Ye Shoutian looked around from his high vantage point and suddenly noticed a figure.

Although this person had tried his best to hide, how could he escape his eyes?

"Chen Kaixuan, why is he still here!"

As Ye Shoutian angrily questioned him, two beams of light shot from his eyes, instantly shattering Li Mo's Formless Robe.

Li Mo looked up at the figure in the sky, his face extremely grim.

Chen Kaixuan, who was engaged in a fierce battle with Fang Qiong, looked extremely grim upon seeing this, and was also somewhat surprised and uncertain. Among the five officers who had just chased after this person, two of them were at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

"This disciple will personally take action immediately!"

Say it.

Chen Kaixuan glanced coldly at the disheveled Fang Qiong. The two had been fighting for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, and the opponent still had at most 40% of her mana left, which was a real pity.

Then he noticed several exclamations coming from a distance.

When he turned his head, he saw that it was Tong Yuan who had taken advantage of the brief chaos caused by Ye Shoutian to strike successfully.

A black dagger silently slashed across Xiang Wenqiang's neck. Only when blood gushed out did he realize the sneak attack from behind; his divine sense hadn't detected it at all.

"They actually attacked me while I was under the pressure of the Golden Core outside the formation." Xiang Wenqiang clutched his neck, blood still gushing out uncontrollably. His eyes revealed a trace of pain and despair. He suddenly swung the golden halberd in his hand at the attacker and used a secret technique at any cost.

War halberds and magical weapons descended from the sky.

But Tong Yuan, after landing a successful blow, was even faster than Xiang Wenqiang, who struck with resentment.

The central authority of the Road Guiding Office is the First Seventh Organization. Tong Yuan, as the elite undercover agent of the First Seventh Organization stationed in Lu State, is never lacking in the ability to adapt to changing circumstances. Although he is not good at direct combat, his shadow-stealing technique is terrifying. His backstabs and sneak attacks are superb, and countless souls have died under his dagger.

Sometimes, in order to carry out a mission, he could even lie in wait for months, just for that one moment to strike.

boom!
The magical artifact exploded with a deafening roar, and a terrifying shockwave rippled outwards, forming a water column several meters high above the whirlpool on the lake surface.

"what……"

Several cultivators fighting nearby were screaming and flying about, indiscriminately fighting friend and foe.

However, faced with Xiang Wenqiang's resentful counterattack, Tong Yuan's body quickly turned into an invisible shadow and disappeared silently, as if he had never appeared.

"Is this the strength of the assassins from the Road Guide's Seventh Day Memorial Organization?"

Xiang Wenqiang's strength rapidly depleted, and he plummeted from the sky to the bottom of the lake, his blood staining the nearby lake surface red, becoming one of the many corpses.

"Wenqiang!"

Wei Cang, who was in the distance, was greatly alarmed.

This was a master craftsman, capable of crafting countless top-grade magical artifacts. Judging from the strength he had just displayed, his ability in direct combat was even superior to mine. How could he have suddenly collapsed like this?

influenced by.

The members of the Justice Society, who were already at a disadvantage, suddenly felt insecure and anxious, constantly looking around for fear of being ambushed by Tong Yuan.

high in the air.

Ye Shoutian was also slightly attracted by this scene, but in the end, it was just a competition among the Foundation Establishment juniors. Although it could affect the overall situation to some extent, it could only play a slight role in promoting the overall situation of the Lingmu Sect.

So many of the sect's elites perished in this internal strife, leaving Ye Shoutian heartbroken but helpless.

"Take care to protect the formation master. Make sure to break this formation as soon as possible. I'll be right back!"

"Yes!"

Chen Kaixuan and the four law enforcement captains responded one after another.

After taking a deep look at Qinglongtan, Ye Shoutian turned and flew towards Qianzhu Peak in the back mountain.

Although he was as famous as Lu Qi in the Lingmu Sect and was ranked as one of the three Golden Core cultivators in the sect, the two had never fought each other.

If he could join forces with Bai Jingjing to unleash a dual cultivation attack, he would be confident of defeating her.

However, with such thorough preparations, how could the Justice Society not have thought of this?
The reason he lingered in the Dharma Protector Hall for so long was not only to search for Lü Jin and Lü Tong, which forced him to briefly spar with the Golden Core cultivators of the Justice Society, but also primarily to find out the whereabouts of his wife, Bai Jingjing.

Now that the cultivation partners are trapped, Lu Qi is fighting the sacred beast that guards the mountain at the bottom of the lake, claiming that he will take its inner core and refine its true body into an external avatar. If he succeeds, Ye Shoutian knows that he has almost no chance of defeating his opponent in a one-on-one fight.

Fortunately, he obtained some information from the Dharma Protector Hall.

Master Xiang, the Taoist Master of Qianzhu Peak, secretly joined the Gongdao Society and refused to support the Dharma Protector Hall.

"Could they be trapped there?"

The speed at which a Golden Core cultivator escapes is incredibly fast.

Ye Shoutian had just arrived at the foot of Qianzhu Peak when he noticed that the mountain was already shrouded in a great formation, and he could vaguely sense the presence of his wife, Bai Jingjing.

"Jingjing!"

"Morita!"

Countless bamboo leaves took flight and converged to form a short Taoist priest, who was none other than Master Qianji.

He looked at Ye Shoutian with a smile.

"Master Ye, your wife is staying here for two days, so there's no need to worry about her safety. Or, if you're confident that you can break my Seven Stars Seven Treasures Thousand Bamboo Formation in a short time, you might as well give it a try."

"Master Prime Minister".

Ye Shoutian immediately summoned his simple and unadorned flying sword, stirring up the surrounding spiritual energy and forming an astonishing vortex. The world suddenly darkened, pressing down on the Thousand Bamboo Peak formation.

Upon seeing this, Master Xiang's expression immediately became extremely solemn, and his previous smugness vanished.

"As expected of the head of the Enforcement Hall, his skill is truly effortless and natural..."

At the foot of Qianzhu Peak, there is a small formation.

Holding the array plate, Wang Zhu looked up in horror at the swirling clouds on the mountaintop.

"A Golden Core cultivator has actually come here?"

After a brief hesitation, he couldn't help but recall the deep hatred he had harbored at Jubaotang more than ten years ago. A hint of madness flashed in his eyes as he gritted his teeth and continued to manipulate the array plate, vowing to fight to the death with the people inside the array.

The disciple trapped in the formation was none other than Lü Song of Jubaotang, a disciple of Lü Ci.

At this moment, he summoned four puppets in one go, all of which were comparable to the strength of a Foundation Establishment cultivator. They bombarded the bamboo sea formation relentlessly, but were unable to break through the encirclement.

The vast bamboo forest seemed endless and inexhaustible, threatening to engulf him.

“Who the hell are you!!”

"You don't need to know."

Wang Zhu had been waiting for this day for fourteen years. He had been looking forward to it day and night, and had made thorough preparations. He had been calculating against the unprepared, and finally created this opportunity.

Otherwise, given his newly advanced Foundation Establishment stage cultivation, he wouldn't have much confidence in defeating Lü Song, who was at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, even if he were trapped in the formation.
