Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 202 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey

"Li Wutian and his wife are both sword cultivators!"

"Sword cultivators possess formidable combat strength and astonishing destructive power!"

"But even sword cultivators can't give face in the face of treasure!"

Wang Zi was the first to express his dissatisfaction.

"Master Wang's words make sense!"

Before Li Yunjing could say anything, someone else spoke up, looking at Li Yunjing with an unfriendly expression and sneering, "In that case, we might as well kill the four of you! We can split the spoils among the rest of us!"

Upon hearing this, the Foundation Establishment experts from those families and sects were moved, clearly indicating that this suggestion was not bad!

By clearing the area ahead of time and killing four rogue cultivators, the remaining people divided the four palaces equally, resulting in even greater benefits for everyone.

It seems like a worthwhile deal no matter how you look at it.

In an instant, everyone stared intently at Li Yunjing, Yu Yunyi, and the other two Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators.

"Alright! Okay! The rest of you can choose to come with us to the Western Palace! As for whether you have the ability to survive, that depends on your own fate!"

Li Yunjing seemed to have anticipated this situation. He remained calm and spoke softly.

"Heh! What a boastful tone!"

A Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Liu family who had previously fought Li Yunjing said coldly.

But before he could finish speaking, Li Yunjing's figure suddenly transformed into a streak of light, revealing nine shadows, and rushed towards the Liu family members.

Before the man could distinguish which one was Li Yunjing's true form, waves of icy energy surged forth, and a silver sword light rushed over, arriving in the blink of an eye. With a "pfft," Li Yunjing's "Heavenly Gang Cold Sword" was stuck in the man's throat!
"Can a mere Foundation Establishment Stage 1 trash even be considered a person?"

After the sword light dissipated, Li Yunjing's figure was revealed. At this moment, the nine phantoms disappeared and merged into one. At this moment, Li Yunjing's eyes revealed a ruthless intent.

It seems that anyone who opposes him will be killed without mercy and executed on the spot!

"You...you actually dared to kill someone in public...do you want to start a war?"

Another Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Liu family had a drastic change in expression and hurriedly retreated!

Just now, he and his brothers tried to use their numerical advantage to put pressure on Li Yunjing, which even provoked an attack from others.

To his utter shock, Li Yunjing dared to launch a sneak attack under such circumstances, killing his brother with a single sword strike. This terrified him to the extreme.

Although the Liu family has three Foundation Establishment cultivators, none of them are above the third level of Foundation Establishment. In Li Yunjing's eyes, killing such people is as easy as killing chickens!
At this moment, the entire audience erupted in uproar.

Everyone witnessed Li Yunjing's storm-like swordplay and movement techniques. A Foundation Establishment cultivator couldn't even withstand a single sword strike, which was completely unexpected by everyone present!
Now, these Foundation Establishment cultivators, looking at Li Yunjing's astonishing moves and overwhelming killing intent, all fell silent.

Whether the Liu family members live or die is none of anyone else's business!

Especially since the Liu family only has one Foundation Establishment cultivator left, it has even less impact on the overall situation.

This situation is very beneficial to other families and sects.

Everyone was hoping that the last member of the Liu family would also be killed on the spot by Li Yunjing.

"You're the only son of the Liu family? Since no one else is willing to help you, I'll personally lend you a hand!"

In an instant, amidst the silence of the crowd, Li Yunjing understood their thoughts. His killing intent surged, and with a flash, he transformed into nine phantoms, chasing after the last Liu family Foundation Establishment cultivator.

The sky was filled with countless figures, each delicate and lifelike. Nine silver longswords were wielded, and the crisscrossing sword energy tore through the air, emitting a piercing shriek. In the blink of an eye, the Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Liu family was completely engulfed.

Almost instantly, the Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Liu family was struck by Li Yunjing's sword and palm, spitting out a mouthful of blood and staggering backward.

"Blood Clotting Technique!"

Seeing that the people around him had stopped moving, this Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Liu family knew exactly what they were thinking.
He gave a bitter laugh, then suddenly shouted, forcibly recovering using his unique secret technique. In an instant, a bloody light covered his entire body, clearly indicating that this was a secret technique of the Blood Path.

It is specifically used in times of crisis, consuming one's own essence to forcibly heal injuries.

This secret technique has endless side effects, but in this life-or-death situation, he had no other choice but to either kill Li Yunjing now or die now!
Since Li Yunjing is forcing him to die, then he should forcefully recover from his injuries and perish together with him!

"Just some low-level, evil magic!"

Seeing this person regain his vigor, Li Yunjing sneered repeatedly. Seeing the other party fighting desperately, he instead kept circling around the person, no longer being aggressive.

With Li Yunjing's cultivation level, the "Wind Catching and Shadow Sweeping Technique" he had learned, and the assistance of the low-grade spiritual artifact "Swift Wind Boots", his speed was extremely fast.

No ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator could match his speed.
In such a battle, Li Yunjing had a significant advantage and naturally wouldn't expend any resources to fight the opponent head-on.

According to Li Yunjing's calculations, this person's secret technique would not last long. After a while, when this person was exhausted, he could easily kill him!

Sure enough, not long after, the man spat out another mouthful of blood, retreated two zhang, and stared intently at Li Yunjing with his triangular eyes, gritting his teeth like a wild beast ready to devour its prey!
"Insignificant ants!"

Li Yunjing sneered and drew his sword, ready to finish off the man.

"stop!"

"Protect the elders!"

"Fight him!"

……

Just then, suddenly, more than a dozen men and women rushed out from among the Qi Refining cultivators and attacked Li Yunjing.

These people are all members of the Liu family.

If this Foundation Establishment cultivator dies, they will not be able to survive either.

Since that's the case, we might as well fight Li Yunjing!

"court death!"

Before these people could reach Li Yunjing, Yu Yunyi moved swiftly and blocked their way.

This peerless beauty, dressed in flowing white robes and with skin as white as snow, had an icy expression and eyes that flashed with a cold light. A murderous aura emanated from her.

The Jade Sword was swung repeatedly. Before the Liu family cultivators who were charging forward could react, they felt a white shadow pass by in front of them. The next moment, their heads fell to the ground.

In an instant, the ground was stained crimson with blood.

Amidst the thick stench of blood, Yu Yunyi stood gracefully, holding the "Jade Dao Sword" in her hand, its tip pointing diagonally at the ground. Her chilling gaze swept over those around her, sending shivers down the spines of countless people.

Upon seeing this, Young Master Tingtao in the crowd quickly lowered his head, cursing inwardly, "Damn it! You Foundation Establishment cultivators are all disguising yourselves as Qi Refining cultivators, aren't you trying to kill me?"

"Luckily, I didn't give myself away and didn't directly offend Li Wutian and his wife, otherwise I would be dead!"

At this time, Young Master Tingtao was unaware that he had already been added to Li Yunjing's death list.

I was just waiting for an opportunity, and then I got what happened to him!
"You beasts! I'll fight you to the death!"

Seeing that Yu Yunyi had killed all the outstanding younger members of his family, this Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Liu family was filled with rage and turned around. He abandoned Li Yunjing and pounced on Yu Yunyi instead!
Knowing he was no match for Li Yunjing, he wanted to kill Li Yunjing's Daoist partner, both to avenge the younger generation of his family and to make Li Yunjing regret it for the rest of his life!
This idea of ​​killing two birds with one stone is excellent.

However, Yu Yunyi moved swiftly and dodged his desperate attack, while Li Yunjing caught up with the man from behind. The "Heavenly Gang Cold Sword" flashed and pierced the man's heart from his back!
"Pfft..."

Seeing this, Yu Yunyi flashed and appeared in front of the man again. With a slash of the "Jade Sword", a surge of hot blood shot up from the man's neck, and his head flew high into the air.

The man's head still bore an expression of intense hatred!
The entire Liu family was wiped out!

Three Foundation Establishment cultivators and hundreds of elite family members originally intended to obtain the treasure and bring glory to their families. However, they never expected that they would die before they even got started, and they were wiped out by two mere rogue cultivators before they could even see the final treasure.

This scene sent a chill down everyone's spine.

Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi slowly collected the belongings of the Liu family members. They looked around, their killing intent undiminished, as if they were ready to start a massacre at any moment!
After a long while, seeing that no one was willing to step forward, the two men's murderous aura subsided somewhat.

"Gentlemen! What do you think about the four of us dividing up the treasures of the Western palace?"

Li Yunjing repeated his previous words, but two cold glints flashed in his eyes, sending chills down one's spine.

Having truly witnessed the power of Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi, the other Foundation Establishment cultivators developed a deep sense of apprehension towards their abilities.

Yu Yunyi killed the Qi Refining Realm cultivator at such a speed that they couldn't judge her strength, but she should have the cultivation of the first or second level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

This Li Wutian can easily kill a low-level Foundation Establishment cultivator, so he seems to have a cultivation level of at least the fourth level of Foundation Establishment.

Such cultivation level is naturally not the highest among those present, but the husband and wife working together may have some secret techniques.

In addition, the two rogue cultivators were also quite powerful. They were fearsome figures on "White Sand Island," and their cultivation levels were also at the third and fourth levels of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

These four are not easy to deal with!

For a moment, the fear of Li Yunjing and his group of four silenced the others, who seemed unsure how to respond. These people were all preoccupied with their own thoughts, a disorganized group. They would naturally swarm the weak, but hesitated when faced with the strong.

Some Foundation Establishment cultivators quickly communicated secretly, discussing how to deal with Li Yunjing and his group.

After a long while, Wang Zi of the "Haitao Faction" spoke up, smiling slightly: "Alright! Since you want to explore the western palace, go ahead! As for the remaining three groups, we'll make the rest of the arrangements!"

"Sure! People with power have the right to set conditions."

Zhu Heming, the leader of the "Zhu Dan Sect," nodded in agreement with Li Yunjing's distribution plan.

Moreover, in everyone's opinion, according to the conventional layout of the building, the palace on the west side was obviously not the main hall. Everyone thought that the benefits there were the least, so it was not unreasonable for Li Yunjing and the others to distribute them.

As for the other palaces, that's their business.

In fact, Li Yunjing wasn't stupid. He knew that these people would definitely not give up the other palaces to Li Yunjing and his group. Moreover, Li Yunjing gave those palaces that might contain valuable treasures to these sects and families.

Perhaps soon, these people will start fighting again because of unequal distribution.

Li Yunjing can then reap the benefits without lifting a finger.

"Okay! It's settled then!"

Li Yunjing nodded, looked around, and seeing that no one objected, then said to his two allies, "Brother Han, Brother Ye, please! Let's divide the treasures of the West Palace equally!"

"Alright! We'll listen to Brother Li!"

The two cultivators, surnamed Han and Ye, exchanged a glance, nodded, and agreed to the allocation plan.

Splitting it equally among four people is acceptable!

After all, everyone's cultivation level is about the same, so it's reasonable that Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi together account for 50%.

With the terms agreed upon, Li Yunjing, Yu Yunyi, the cultivator surnamed Han, and the cultivator surnamed Ye, along with some Qi Refining Realm rogue cultivators, vanished from the backyard and headed towards the West Hall.

The remaining people, feeling anxious, immediately began discussing the allocation of the three palaces in the northeast and south.

Since it concerned their own interests, the remaining twenty-one Foundation Establishment cultivators from these families discussed it endlessly.

After a while, some familiar families and sects formed a new small alliance and headed towards the three palaces in the northeast and south.

Looking around, Li Yunjing saw that in almost every spot, there were ten Foundation Establishment cultivators and dozens of Qi Refining cultivators.

Of course, those people also looked at Li Yunjing and his group at the same time.

The fact that only four people shared the spoils in the West Hall was something they were extremely envious of!
However, the ruthlessness of Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi made everyone tremble with fear and unwilling to provoke them.

As for those who were not afraid of Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi, they were eyeing the better palaces and trying to gain greater benefits, so naturally they were unwilling to compete for the advantages of the West Palace.

"Alright! Brother Han, Brother Ye, let's try to break the restrictions here!"

Standing at the entrance of the West Hall, carefully examining the pavilion and tower, Li Yunjing asked the two men a question.

"I know nothing about restrictions, so please, Brother Li, take action!"

That cultivator surnamed Han was also cunning, with a seemingly honest face, but he said he didn't want to do anything.

Li Yunjing smiled slightly and then looked at the cultivator surnamed Ye.

"Sigh... I don't understand restrictions or formations, so I don't know how to break them!"

This cultivator surnamed Ye, with a flash of insight, also uttered such a statement.

"Ha ha……"

Li Yunjing chuckled, suppressing his dissatisfaction. He thought for a moment before continuing, "In that case, let's call in some Qi Refining cultivators to give it a try?"

Anyway, there were still dozens of Qi Refining cultivators left present, and they were all coerced by the cultivators surnamed Han and Ye. It seems that the two of them had been planning this for a long time.

However, the two were unwilling to talk about it, clearly still mindful of their status as independent cultivators.

While the two of them had their concerns, Li Yunjing had none!

These rogue cultivators are no good either!
Having witnessed their actions along the way, Li Yunjing could assure him that these people were certainly qualified to uphold the principles of helping the weak and punishing demons as stated in the "Shenxiao Daozong" rules.

Now, making use of waste is not bad!

"Alright, everyone! The treasure of the West Palace is right in front of us. Please go in and have a look."

Li Yunjing waved his hand, signaling the rogue cultivators to break down the door.

Like those families and sects, Li Yunjing showed no courtesy and waved them forward.

As for Yu Yunyi, she had a sword in hand and was ready to kill someone at the slightest provocation!

First there was Li Yunjing, a man with a smile but a knife hidden in his heart; later there was the ruthless and merciless female demon.

These rogue cultivators are really in for a ton of bad luck!
"Ugh!"

These rogue cultivators all wore bitter expressions. There was nothing they could do. Immediately, two cultivators at the eighth level of Qi Refining were pushed forward and had no choice but to stand at the door, preparing to push it open and enter.

"Crack!"

The two had barely placed their hands on the door when a flash of electricity appeared on it, instantly turning them into charred corpses.

"There are restrictions!"

The other independent cultivators were all taken aback!
All the rogue cultivators turned their gazes to Li Yunjing, Yu Yunyi, the cultivator surnamed Han, and the cultivator surnamed Ye. Seeing that the four of them were unmoved, completely indifferent to the deaths of the two, and showed no intention of stepping forward, a chill ran through everyone's hearts!
They knew that it was a Foundation Establishment cultivator who had ordered them to continue exploring!

The four men's cold-bloodedness has infuriated many people!
However, having witnessed the cruel methods of Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi, these people dared not speak out in anger. Helpless, they sent out several more cultivators at the eighth level of Qi Refining to continue trying to enter the hall!

Cultivators are ranked one level down, with Foundation Establishment cultivators suppressing Qi Refining cultivators.

A cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Realm oppresses a cultivator at the Ninth Level of the Qi Refining Realm.

And the cultivators at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm came to oppress these unlucky souls.

One by one, the cultivators at the eighth level of Qi Refining Realm steeled their hearts and unleashed their top-grade magic weapons, bombarding the gate.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, like a muffled thunderclap, a hole appeared in the door.

The dimly lit interior of the main hall was then revealed.

"Alright! You can continue on your way!"

This time, it was the cultivator surnamed Ye's turn to give instructions.

We can't let Li Yunjing be the only bad guy!

"Yes!"

These Qi Refining cultivators had no choice but to bite the bullet and enter the main hall.

As the group of cultivators entered the main hall, they discovered rows of bookshelves.

There were a hundred books displayed on it.

"It's a library for Golden Core cultivators!"

someone exclaimed.

"You all stay here for now! We'll go inside and take a look. We'll also have you copy some books later!"

Li Yunjing spoke first.

"Thank you, senior!"

Upon hearing this, all the Qi Refining cultivators were overjoyed.

With the legacy of great figures, everything is worthwhile for them!
You must understand that what independent cultivators lack is a lineage of knowledge and skills!
With a complete lineage, they can avoid detours, save time, and reach a higher level.

Li Yunjing waved his hand dismissively and then, along with Yu Yunyi, the cultivator surnamed Han, and the cultivator surnamed Ye, arrived in front of a row of bookshelves.

"Everyone! Since this is about knowledge, let's first determine the level of inheritance! If it's a book for the Golden Core or Foundation Establishment stage, we'll each take one and share it!"

Li Yunjing continued, "The remaining Qi Refining Realm books will be copied by everyone, and the rest will be given to these people."
