Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 299 Life-or-Death Struggle (Seeking monthly votes, burst updates are starting!)
"Boom!"

The lightning bolt struck Han Yanzhi with incredible speed.

"block!"

Seeing the attack coming, Han Yanzhi reacted extremely quickly. A flash of light appeared in his hand, and a round metal shield flew out.

The round shield began to spin rapidly in front of Han Yanzhi, and in an instant, it shrank to three feet in size!
The shield was positioned right in front of the "palm lightning," blocking the bolt of lightning!
Although it was blocked, the force was extremely strong, and the shield was sent flying, almost hitting Han Yanzhi's eye.

If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been injured by his own magical weapon.

"How is that possible? I also know 'Palm Thunder'! I've even mastered it to perfection. Li Yunjing's magical power is inferior to mine, so how could his 'Palm Thunder' be much more powerful than mine? This doesn't make sense in cultivation!"

Han Yan was startled and couldn't help but take a few steps back, dodging his shield, and staring at Li Yunjing with a horrified expression.

His eyes were filled with disbelief!
"kill!"

Han Yanzhi retreated, but Li Yunjing followed closely, relentlessly pursuing him. Without any hesitation, he swung his "Azure Sea Listening to the Waves Sword" down at Han Yanzhi's head!

"Roar……"

A faint, angry roar emanated from the "Azure Sea Listening to the Waves Sword," and its azure light shone brightly, almost illuminating the entire "Grievance Platform" in a jade-like hue.

"when……"

Han Yanzhi remained calm, holding his spirit sword horizontally in front of him. However, the force of this strike was too great, and he couldn't help but take four or five steps back!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

At the same time, nine more illusory bodies split off from his body.

Han Yanzhi needed to buy time, stabilize his position, and launch a counterattack!

"laugh……"

Li Yunjing scoffed. The first time Han Yanzhi used the "Wind-Catching Shadow Technique," he was caught off guard and Han Yanzhi still succeeded. How could Li Yunjing not be on guard the second time he used the same method?

The red mark between his eyebrows shone even brighter, and a beam of light shot out from his sea of ​​consciousness, illuminating the nine illusory bodies.

This is Li Yunjing's "Divine Firmament Forging Technique," a mental training method that, when focused on the center of the forehead, allows one to see through all obstacles.

The Heavenly Secrets Technique is a type of supernatural power that involves the transformations of celestial secrets and is extremely powerful.

Li Yunjing did not succeed in cultivating, but at the Foundation Establishment stage, he was able to see through all illusions.

In an instant, Li Yunjing saw through Han Yanzhi's true form. He raised his hand and threw out another magical artifact.

This magical artifact unleashed a crackling bolt of lightning, striking Han Yanzhi's head like a heavy hammer!

Within this ball of lightning was the "Heavenly Thunder Emperor Seal," bright and dazzling. As soon as the magical artifact was unleashed, it sealed off the surrounding space, filling it with the power of thunder.

"boom!"

Han Yanzhi never expected that Li Yunjing possessed such a treasure.

He was about to use his magic to defend himself, but the "Heavenly Thunder Emperor Seal" came too fast, striking him head-on, and he couldn't dodge it in time.

In the blink of an eye, Han Yanzhi only had time to lower his head before the "Heavenly Thunder Emperor Seal" struck his "Great Sun Dao Robe" directly, causing the immortal light on the "Great Sun Dao Robe" to disintegrate and melt away inch by inch.

"They withstood all of this? The true disciples of our 'Divine Firmament Dao Sect' are indeed formidable!"

Despite using the Heavenly Secret Technique to break through the opponent's true form and employing a magical artifact to harm him, Li Yunjing was still unable to kill Han Yanzhi, which surprised him.

Li Yunjing originally thought that his repeated attacks and powerful trump cards would be enough to kill Han Yanzhi directly, but he did not expect that the other party would withstand it.

"Gui Water Divine Thunder!"

Without further hesitation, Li Yunjing once again unleashed his formidable skills!

Li Yunjing then made a hand seal with his left hand and chanted incantations. In an instant, a dark cloud appeared in mid-air above the "Grievance Platform," right inside the light barrier.

With almost no delay, dark clouds, mixed with lightning and torrential rain, enveloped Han Yanzhi like a pot lid.

"Boom!"

Streaks of lightning illuminated the "Grievance Platform," and thunderous roars shook the platform violently, causing ripples in the air and even scattering the azure light of the "Azure Sea Listening Sword"!

"Gui Water Divine Thunder" is extremely powerful!
It is the strongest divine power of the water system, the ultimate manifestation of the great water system cultivation.

In order to deal with Han Yanzhi, Li Yunjing used this supreme divine power as his first move. Its immense power immediately subdued Han Yanzhi.

"Free and unrestrained, like the wind, one attains true freedom!"

At this critical moment, Han Yanzhi once again displayed his formidable strength. His body became illusory, creating a whirlwind on the "Grievance Platform," within which his true form was hidden.

At the same time, a whirlwind swept towards Li Yunjing!

The falling rain was flung away by the whirlwind, turning into countless ice beads that struck Li Yunjing. The dense, countless ice beads sealed off Li Yunjing's surroundings.

"Ice! Wind! These two elemental abilities can't possibly harm me?"

Seeing the "Gui Water Divine Thunder" strike the ground, sending stones flying, Li Yunjing's face turned extremely cold. He rubbed his hands together, and a large ball of "Nine Yang Fire" ignited around him, forming a sea of ​​fire.

As soon as the "Nine Yang Fire" appeared, an overwhelming heat surged forth, instantly melting the thousands of ice beads into water droplets that fell to the ground.

"Water element again! Fire element again! Damn it! Five elemental spiritual roots, proficient in all five elemental spells, they're really troublesome!"

Amidst the whirlwind, Han Yanzhi recognized that this was the "Nine Yang Fire." Although it was not as powerful as the "Samadhi True Fire," it was enough to incinerate everything and counter his ice-type divine power.

The five elements interact in a cycle of mutual generation and restraint, making it extremely difficult to deal with cultivators who have achieved success in cultivating the Dao and possess the spiritual roots of the five elements.

At this moment, amidst the whirlwind, Han Yanzhi was extremely distressed, unsure how to restrain Li Yunjing.

"Bing Fire Divine Thunder!"

Without giving Han Yanzhi a chance, Li Yunjing made another move. He condensed his palm and unleashed a "Bing Fire Divine Thunder". The thunder technique exploded in the whirlwind, and instantly, the whirlwind was filled with flames.

"Chichi..."

Li Yunjing unleashed two supreme divine powers, water and fire, in succession. The two energies collided, and instantly, the "Grievance Platform" was filled with fire below and water above, spreading out into a world where water and fire coexisted.

"Water and fire work together!"

Before Han Yanzhi could break free from the two attacks, Li Yunjing cast a spell again, and the "Azure Sea Listening to the Waves Sword" flew out of his hand, transforming into an azure dragon that surged towards Han Yanzhi.

On the other side, Li Yunjing waved his hands repeatedly, and a ball of water vapor and a flame instantly formed a water dragon and a fire dragon, which surrounded Han Yanzhi.

At this moment, outside the "Grievance Platform," many fellow disciples saw that Li Yunjing had actually suppressed Han Yanzhi, who was at the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, with his own supernatural powers. His supernatural powers were boundless and his magic power was limitless.

Even the most seasoned disciples of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," who were all well-informed, were utterly astonished by Li Yunjing's profound magical power.

"I underestimated this person! Five elements spiritual root, indeed powerful! If this person's cultivation level improves, what will become of him? Wouldn't even I be unable to defeat him?"

Li Chuanghai's gaze was sinister, and within that vicious gaze was a trace of fear.

We must find a way to deal with Li Yunjing, this enemy!

Otherwise, if Li Yunjing rises to power in the future, wouldn't he be able to dominate him and act arrogantly?
The thought of this terrible consequence made Li Chuanghai feel uneasy. He just didn't know how to deal with Li Yunjing.
When the enemy is suffering, our side is naturally overjoyed.

Yu Yunyi and Lü Ruoxi, in particular, exchanged a glance and smiled, knowing that their men were sure to win this time.

As for Fu Chao and his group, they were extremely excited. They knew they'd made a fortune from this betting scheme, especially since they'd secretly placed bets on their competitors. Not only would they earn a fortune in spirit stones, but they'd also severely damage their rivals—a win-win situation!
When Li Yunjing gained the upper hand on the "Grievance Platform," apart from Yu Yunyi and Lü Ruoxi, Fu Chao and the others no longer paid attention to this battle.

They were looking to use this opportunity to expand their influence and elevate their team among the true disciples of the "Shenxiao Daozong" to become a mid-tier team.

"Li Yunjing, you've angered me! Your arrogance can end now!"

The whirlwind was dispersed, and Han Yanzhi was somewhat disheveled. In his hand appeared a black pill, which emitted a faint fishy smell.

Without any hesitation, Han Yanzhi swallowed the pill in one gulp.

Han Yanzhi stood on the "Grievance Platform," his deathly pale face instantly flushed with a hint of red. His "Great Sun Daoist Robe" moved without wind, fluttering like a great flag.

Having swallowed some kind of potent elixir, Han Yanzhi's strength suddenly increased dramatically, and his physique instantly appeared much larger in the eyes of many.

Han Yanzhi's disheveled and hunched body straightened up, pointing to the sky and stomping on the ground, exuding a majestic and awe-inspiring presence that gave people a sense of invincibility and towering grandeur.

No one expected that Han Yanzhi, who was on the verge of death, still had a backup plan. His magical power was rising steadily, and the magical power circulating in his body could make many people hear his voice, like the thunderous roar of tigers and leopards.

Outside the "Grievance Platform," many fellow disciples watching could clearly see that Han Yanzhi's power had reached the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment Realm!

Even if it's just a temporary boost thanks to elixirs, it's still a remarkable achievement.

People outside were talking about it and were quite surprised.

Even Li Yunjing felt the pressure from the other party, a pressure that made him feel suffocated.

"Great! That's more like it!"

Li Yunjing finally couldn't bear it any longer and roared, activating many of the spiritual artifacts on his body.

Li Yunjing's own combat strength had not increased much, but his combat strength was already incredibly powerful. The "Great Sun Dao Robe", "Mysterious Jade Inner Armor", "Swift Wind Boots" and "Five Dragon Wheels", a total of four spiritual artifacts, unleashed their most powerful forces to enhance Li Yunjing.

Meanwhile, Li Yunjing secretly possessed three deadly weapons: the third-tier magic treasure "Ten Thousand Poison Banner" and "Blood Demon Seal," and the top-grade spiritual artifact "Ten Thousand Paths Glazed Furnace," all of which were ready to be activated at any time.

That "Myriad Paths Glazed Furnace" is a pill furnace used for refining pills, and it can also be used to forge artifacts. It seems to be an auxiliary spiritual artifact, but in reality, it is a treasure that can be used for refining pills and artifacts. It is of extremely high quality and excellent craftsmanship.

Used for defense, it is definitely not something an ordinary cultivator can break through!

Li Yunjing kept this item close to his chest, ready to activate it at any time to protect himself!

As for the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner" and the "Blood Demon Seal," it's best not to use them if possible. Both of these treasures are demonic artifacts and are highly taboo. Li Yunjing was somewhat reluctant to use them in front of everyone.

Although he had revealed his two demonic artifacts to the Sect Master and Palace Master Qin and received a report, Li Yunjing had not yet had the time to modify them, so he could not use them.

However, besides magic treasures, Li Yunjing has quite a few good things on him, so he may not be afraid of a Foundation Establishment Realm seventh level cultivator!

Moreover, Li Yunjing was confident that as long as he could withstand the effects of Han Yanzhi's medicine, the man's cultivation level would inevitably drop significantly, and he would not be as strong as he is now. The man's demise would be inevitable.

"Han Yanzhi, is this all you're relying on?"

Li Yunjing sneered, no longer in a hurry to make a move. Delaying the attack would make things easier for him.

"Li Yunjing, I know what you mean. You just want to stall for time, don't you?"

Han Yanzhi looked coldly at Li Yunjing and said, "However, this pill is enough to unleash my potential for half an hour. That's plenty of time! It seems you're doomed today!"

"Heh! Looks like you're really confident! Well then, let's give it a try and see if you can really handle me!"

Li Yunjing sneered, making no attempt to hide his thoughts.

Since Han Yanzhi wants to show off, then go ahead. Li Yunjing is happy that he's wasting his time.

"Why all this nonsense!"

There was no point in saying more when there was no common ground. Finally, Han Yanzhi stopped hesitating. With a "boom," a sonic boom erupted as he charged straight at Li Yunjing at a speed invisible to the naked eye, thrusting his sword towards Li Yunjing's brow!
"Well done!"

Li Yunjing let out a low shout, and his "Swift Wind Boots" were pushed to their limit. He unleashed the third-tier technique "Fire Dragon Divine Light Transformation," and Li Yunjing became like a fire dragon, his body elusive and ghostly, dodging repeatedly. Han Yanzhi's sword could not pinpoint Li Yunjing's location at all.

"Boom!"

At that moment, Li Yunjing still had the energy to fight back. His fingers moved rapidly, and he sent the "Heavenly Fire Divine Flame Seal" flying out of his hand!
A streak of fire formed a large seal in the void and shot straight toward Han Yanzhi's chest!

"Hmm? A third-tier cultivation technique?"

Han Yan was startled, but quickly calmed down. There was a huge difference in strength between the two sides, and he had enough strength to deal with Li Yunjing.

Then Han Yanzhi drew a Tai Chi symbol in front of him. A Tai Chi diagram formed from ice flew out and collided with the Heavenly Fire Divine Flame Seal with a "boom," and they dispersed.

Li Yunjing's counterattack bought him time. His figure transformed into a fire dragon, flashing continuously in mid-air, making it impossible for Han Yanzhi to catch up.

For a moment, the battle between the two became intense again.

Below the "Grudge Platform," everyone's eyes turned back to the two combatants. Those who had placed large bets, hoping Han Yanzhi would win, cheered and shouted, hoping that Han Yanzhi could continue his efforts and defeat Li Yunjing.

Do you think Yun Jing can win?

Watching Li Yunjing and Han Yanzhi fight on the "Enmity Platform," Yu Yunyi's expression turned somewhat grim. She hadn't expected Han Yanzhi to possess such a pill, which made her feel anxious and uncertain.

Yu Yunyi was well aware of Li Yunjing's strength; it was incredibly powerful, something she had never heard of or seen before.

However, the two are currently on the "Grudges Arena," their figures flashing so fast that their appearances are almost invisible. Every exchange is instantaneous, the situation is extremely tense, and the outcome could be decided in a mere moment.

"Don't worry! Li Yunjing will win!"

Lu Ruoxi was also a little worried, but she still believed that Li Yunjing could defeat his opponent.

"Hehe! Li Yunjing will definitely win! So what if he's at the seventh level of Foundation Establishment? Even a Golden Core cultivator can't kill this kid!"

Unlike Yu Yunyi and Lü Ruoxi, Fu Chao was full of confidence.

The experiences he had had with Li Yunjing were truly astonishing. In particular, his strength and command skills in the several battles with Golden Core cultivators and demon kings left Fu Chao in awe.

Fu Chao absolutely did not believe that a Foundation Establishment Realm seventh level cultivator who had been temporarily promoted could do anything to Li Yunjing.

On the "Grievance Platform," Li Yunjing and Han Yanzhi moved like lightning. One possessed a powerful magic weapon, while the other had abundant magical power; each had their own strengths.

In this situation, the two unleashed their magical powers, and the aftershocks caused the heavens and earth's energy to crackle and pop, each strike comparable to the sound of wind and thunder.

Most of the time, Han Yanzhi attacks while Li Yunjing dodges. Only when he can't dodge in time will he launch a counterattack.

Li Yunjing's counterattacks were extremely powerful, especially his "Heavenly Thunder Emperor Seal" and "Azure Sea Listening to the Waves Sword," which were incredibly powerful and sharp, making even Han Yanzhi wary.

The two exchanged blows, employing a variety of techniques, including dozens of spells and supernatural abilities, leaving all the disciples and elders watching in awe. They never expected Li Yunjing and Han Yanzhi to be so powerful.

"What a pity! What a pity!"

Even the elder of the "Enforcement Hall" shook his head slightly, feeling reluctant to do so.

Li Yunjing and Han Yanzhi were both outstanding disciples of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," and it was truly heartbreaking that one of them had to die.

During the fight between Li Yunjing and Han Yanzhi, time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, only a quarter of an hour remained.

If Li Yunjing had just held on a little longer, Han Yanzhi would have been finished.
