Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 325 Asura

Without hesitation, Li Yunjing reached out and grabbed, gathering the power of the five elements in his palm to form a cage that enveloped the "Blood Bodhi Tree"!

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the blood pool began to churn.

A great bloodbath erupted!
The Blood Bodhi Tree swayed violently, and streaks of blood swords shot toward Li Yunjing's palm!

"Still trying to resist?"

Li Yunjing sneered. His palm, formed from condensed magical power, was enveloped in five-colored divine light. The blood swords that shot towards him were deflected when they struck the five-colored divine light.

Li Yunjing's powerful magical hand continued to reach forward, determined to seize the "Blood Bodhi Tree".

Just as Li Yunjing was about to catch the "Blood Bodhi Tree", bubbles began to rise from the blood pool, and a woman appeared inside.

The woman's eyes were bloodshot, flashing with a cold light as she glared fiercely at Li Yunjing, her killing intent completely undisguised!
This is not human, but from the Asura race!
In Buddhism, there are eight classes of guardian deities: gods, dragons, yakshas, ​​gandharvas, asuras, garudas, kinnaras, and mahoragas.

One of them is Asura.

According to legend, the Asuras of Buddhism come from the depths of the Nine Netherworlds, and are a race of Asuras.

As for the identity of the Asura woman who appeared at this moment, whether she really came from the Nine Netherworld and was a member of the legendary Asura clan, Li Yunjing had no idea.

According to historical records, the male members of the Asura race were extremely ugly, while the female members were charming and beautiful.

At this moment, a woman from the Asura clan suddenly emerged from the blood pool, which greatly surprised Li Yunjing, who secretly praised her for her outstanding appearance.

This woman was subdued by Buddhism, and her lineage has been propagated generation after generation.
In Buddhism, Asuras also practice the Five Precepts and Ten Virtues.

The primary duty of the Asuras is to protect Buddhist practitioners and monasteries, as well as to fight against hostile forces.

"You're asking for death! How dare you steal a Buddhist treasure!"

The woman's voice was clear and crisp. As soon as the word "treasure" was uttered, streaks of blood flew out of the blood pool. Hundreds of blood streaks flew wildly and finally viciously pounced on Li Yunjing.

As this group of blood-red figures flew out, Li Yunjing and Zhu Wanyun felt their blood boiling, and they even had a terrifying feeling of being detached from their bodies.

This is not some Buddhist practice; it is the most evil blood-based demonic art.

"I never imagined that the so-called Eight Legions of Devas and Asuras of Buddhism were nothing but evil scoundrels! Since you dare to attack me, don't blame me for slaying demons and eliminating evil!"

Seeing the Asura little witches make their move, their magic flowing freely, Li Yunjing's expression turned quite grim, but he felt much more at ease.

Although this witch was at the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, Li Yunjing remained fearless.

As long as it's not a Golden Core Realm expert, Li Yunjing isn't afraid of anyone who comes!
Now, he has the confidence to back it up!
He held the "Blood Demon Seal" in his hand, and a dark light emanated from it. The attacking blood shadows were all absorbed into the "Blood Demon Seal". As expected, this blood-path treasure can restrain other blood-path divine abilities!
"What kind of magical artifact is this?"

Startled, the Asura woman moved and flew out of the blood pool. With a flick of her crystalline jade hand, she was already dressed in a set of blood-red clothes.

"Hehe! I can get your magic treasure!"

Li Yunjing sneered, and the "Heavenly Thunder Emperor Seal" appeared out of nowhere, sealing off the entire huge stone chamber.

The "Blood Demon Seal" vibrated and, with a "hum," pressed down on the Asura woman.

Even when facing a peak Foundation Establishment Realm expert, Li Yunjing showed no fear. From this woman's divine abilities, Li Yunjing had already sensed the level of his opponent.

In battles between cultivators below the Golden Core Realm, the quality of their magical treasures is paramount. Li Yunjing is confident that he possesses numerous treasures and doesn't believe he can't defeat a little witch at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

This time, instead of facing other cultivators and not daring to use demonic methods, Li Yunjing was now facing a powerful alien expert. He could naturally unleash the third-tier demonic treasure he had seized to suppress this woman fiercely!
To be honest, Li Yunjing was filled with curiosity about this Asura woman.

This is a rare and special race.

Even if it takes great effort and forbidden methods, Li Yunjing will still suppress it and study the characteristics of the Asura race!
"Very well! You mere Foundation Establishment Stage 4th Heaven little Taoist dare to attack me, you truly have no respect for death!"

The Asura woman was furious and said, "I'll capture you and turn you into a puppet for my use!"

Nine blood-red banners suddenly appeared in the stone chamber, accompanied by gusts of bloody wind and ferocious spirits churning within them, attempting to break free.

This witch's responsibility is to protect the "Blood Bodhi Tree".

In the witch's eyes, Li Yunjing and his companions' actions were absolutely heinous crimes deserving of death!
The "Blood Demon Seal" crisscrossed the sky, devouring countless blood souls. With immense power, the "Blood Demon Seal" slammed into the nine banners.

"Boom!"

Two enormous forces shook the underground cave, which, unable to withstand the onslaught, collapsed completely.

Ignoring the flying rocks, the witch flashed and first pulled the "Blood Bodhi Tree" out of the blood pool. Then, she transformed into a streak of blood light and rushed in front of Li Yunjing. Her jade hand had five hook-like fingers, and her sharp nails were grabbing at Li Yunjing's face.

Long, scarlet fingernails, each one like a divine weapon, exuded a unique scent that mingled with the stench of blood and a delicate fragrance, stirring a whirlwind in Li Yunjing's heart.

Looking into the woman's eyes, which were as clear as autumn water, Li Yunjing thought to himself, "This is bad!"

"boom!"

After calming himself down, Li Yunjing stretched out his long arm and with a tremor of his left hand, he pressed down on his opponent.

To arrive late but arrive early—this was something the witch could never have imagined.

The Asura witch was filled with surprise, clearly not expecting this person to react so quickly, instantly neutralizing her attack with a single grab.

A cold smile played on Li Yunjing's lips. Who could rival him in close combat?
Having spent many years roaming the martial world, he has faced life and death countless times, experiencing at least eight hundred, if not a thousand, battles.

Li Yunjing had long understood the true meaning of "martial arts". If the Asura witch dared to fight him in close combat, she was courting death!

"what……"

After defeating the woman with a single blow, Li Yunjing moved swiftly and pursued her relentlessly, unleashing a barrage of techniques—fist, palm, finger, elbow strikes—a variety of skills appearing one after another.

In an instant, the woman was forced back and beaten until she coughed up blood.

"How could you, a mere demon, possibly be my match?"

In terms of strength, this woman is stronger than him, but in terms of skill, the witch is far inferior.

In the blink of an eye, the two clashed. The witch failed to hit him once, but was hit several times by Li Yunjing and was seriously injured!

Li Yunjing sneered repeatedly, taking advantage of the opportunity to force the witch back, he once again activated the "Blood Demon Seal" and suppressed her!

The Asura woman's body was incredibly tough and difficult to break; only a third-tier demonic weapon could kill her!

"Blood Golem!"

Seeing the "Blood Demon Seal" coming to kill, the Asura woman shouted loudly, and a small puppet appeared in her hand. Without making any move, the little puppet shone with bloody light and switched places with the impossible neutralizing witch. The next moment, it was smashed to pieces by the "Blood Demon Seal"!
At the start of the battle, the Asura woman was at a disadvantage and was injured by Li Yunjing.

At this point, she had less than 70% of her strength left.

The witch glared fiercely at Li Yunjing, then shattered the falling boulder with a single palm strike, transforming into a streak of blood as she fled outside.

"Where to escape!"

Li Yunjing was taken aback, not expecting that this woman would possess such a treasure to replace the calamity, and was a step too slow.

Just as the witch was about to escape, the "Heavenly Thunder Emperor Seal" struck, and the thunderous lightning forced the witch to retreat.

Li Yunjing was on guard from the very beginning and cut off the woman's escape route.

Even the Blood Escape Technique won't be enough to escape!

Gritting his teeth and cursing, Li Yunjing lunged at the witch again. At the same time, the "Blood Demon Seal" suppressed the top-grade spiritual artifact, the blood-red banner!
Without the witch's control, the blood-red banner's power was greatly reduced, and it was slowly suppressed by the "Blood Demon Seal." However, since this kind of demonic artifact had been refined with the witch's blood, it was impossible for Li Yunjing to subdue it.

However, this is still a substantial gain, and the rewards for handing it over to the sect will be considerable.

A set of magical artifacts is priceless; even a top-tier Foundation Establishment cultivator in the demonic path wouldn't possess one. This woman must hold a very high position within the Buddhist sect.

"Boom boom boom..."

Just as she was suppressing the nine blood-red banners, the witch began to fight back. With a flick of her jade hand, three "Blood-Transforming Divine Thunders" exploded one after another in front of Li Yunjing.

The entire Lingxiu Island was affected. The island collapsed, and seawater flooded in.

The waves surged, the white clouds dispersed, and the entire world was filled with a blood-red lightning field, with crimson lightning everywhere.

This unexpected blow sent a huge shock through Li Yunjing's heart.

He quickly used five-colored divine light to shield himself and Zhu Wanyun.

The two treasures, the "Five Dragon Wheels" and the "Heavenly Thunder Emperor Seal," were placed in front of him, which saved him and Zhu Wanyun from the massive explosion.

"Hmph, I didn't expect you to have a forbidden artifact!"

Suddenly struck by a heavy blow, Li Yunjing's blood churned. He barely swallowed the blood in his mouth and let out a cold snort.

At this moment, only Li Yunjing knew that he had suffered a severe injury.

Both the "Five Dragon Wheels" and the "Heavenly Thunder Emperor Seal" were blasted away, their surfaces covered in cracks.

On Li Yunjing's body, the "Great Sun Dao Robe" and "Mysterious Jade Inner Armor" were severely damaged the moment he rushed forward when the three "Blood Transformation Divine Thunders" released by the witch exploded.

Zhu Wanyun, being behind Li Yunjing, was minimally affected and was unharmed.

"You old fox! You think you can do anything to me? You're all dead!"

Seeing that her counterattack had achieved excellent results, the witch stopped running and instead turned around and charged towards Li Yunjing and Zhu Wanyun.

"Hmph! You think you've won?"

Li Yunjing sneered, still full of confidence even at this point.

Then Li Yunjing took out a round mirror with black and white sides from his storage ring.

It was the ancient magical artifact he had unexpectedly obtained, the "Yin-Yang Mirror".

When the white side of the "Yin-Yang Mirror" was reflected on Li Yunjing, a protective shield formed by white light immediately enveloped him. His injuries began to heal rapidly at a visible speed...

The Yin-Yang Mirror worked, and Li Yunjing finally felt relieved. It was indeed a top-tier treasure!
It truly has the power to bring the dead back to life.

Once his injuries had healed and he had used his most powerful weapon, Li Yunjing looked at the witch with a fierce determination in his heart and shone the "Yin-Yang Mirror" in her direction.

"what……"

The witch let out a scream, feeling as if her soul was being torn apart, in excruciating pain.

This is the black side of the "Yin Yang Treasure Mirror," emitting black light!
White light brings life, black light brings death; between life and death, yin and yang change—this is the effect of the "Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror".

"This is……!"

The witch's expression changed drastically. She felt the strange mirror in Li Yunjing's hand constantly devouring her life force. When that light shone, even the witch's protective aura could not withstand it. Her body floated in mid-air, and she was so weak that she almost fell into the sea.

"Damn it! What he has is a top-tier magic weapon! A true ancient treasure!"

Enveloped in the mirror's light, the witch could hardly move, and her face was extremely ugly. She never expected that Li Yunjing would actually possess a treasure of this level!
You should know that even the vast majority of Nascent Soul Realm old monsters would never possess a treasure of this caliber!
How could a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator possess such a treasure?

Even the son of a Nascent Soul Realm expert wouldn't bestow a treasure of this caliber!

You should know that the Buddhist master who sent her only had ordinary magical artifacts. How could he possibly produce something so good?

"Oh no! I have to break free, or I'm doomed!"

Knowing the situation was dire, the witch didn't hesitate any longer and attacked relentlessly, determined to break through the layer of black light covering her body before her life came to an end!
Otherwise, she would be dead.

In the very moment she retaliated, the witch's blood-red hair had already turned gray.

"Want to leave? It's too late!"

This was also the first time Li Yunjing had used the "Yin Yang Treasure Mirror," and its power was immense. Even he, the one who used it, was secretly amazed!

It should be noted that Li Yunjing had no way of unleashing the full power of the "Yin Yang Treasure Mirror".

Even so, it wouldn't take long to kill a Foundation Establishment Realm Ninth Level expert.

"what……"

After struggling for three breaths, she still couldn't break through the black light. The witch screamed again, feeling as if her body was being pierced by countless steel needles, in excruciating pain, and her lifespan was being drained away at an alarming rate.

Three hundred years, two hundred years, one hundred years, fifty years...

The witch was filled with fear as a powerful figure at the peak of his power was about to die of old age. She secretly regretted returning earlier and should have taken the opportunity to escape.

Now look what's happened! We've really pushed this guy to the limit, and we never expected Li Yunjing to pull out such a powerful trump card!
"Die!"

Activating the Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror was too strenuous. With a flick of his arm, Li Yunjing retrieved the treasure. With a "whoosh," the Azure Sea Listening to the Waves Sword pierced through the witch's chest, and this powerful Foundation Establishment cultivator died instantly!

"What a formidable enemy! I never imagined that these Asuras would be so powerful!"

After killing the witch, Li Yunjing breathed a sigh of relief, put the witch's corpse into his "Treasure Pouch," and then took five or six pills to replenish his magic power before releasing his "Azure Cloud Boat."

I've really messed up this time.

Having killed so many people from the "Soul Control Sect," as well as the Eight Legions of the Buddhist Heavenly Dragons and the "Blood Bodhi Tree," this matter absolutely cannot be discovered by anyone in the short term.

Otherwise, if the Buddhists set their sights on me and hunt me down, wouldn't I be doomed?

Buddhist monks are incredibly treacherous and unscrupulous, and Li Yunjing is extremely wary of them.

Now that Li Yunjing has released the "Qingyun Boat," he's preparing to flee.

"Let's get out of here right now! We absolutely cannot let anyone know I did this! Understand?"

Li Yunjing used his magic to lift Zhu Wanyun and fly towards the "Azure Cloud Boat," while giving her instructions.

"Yes! Your Excellency, rest assured, I won't say anything! I won't tell anyone!"

As a big fan of Li Yunjing, Zhu Wanyun recovered from her daze and said affirmatively.

"Okay! Let's go! I'll take you back to the palace first! Later, I need to go back to the sect to report this matter. Wait for me to come back."

Seeing Zhu Wanyun's determined expression, Li Yunjing believed she wouldn't talk nonsense, and then began to count the supplies.

In this great battle, Li Yunjing killed more than 120 people and seized a considerable amount of resources. It's time to take a look.

On the vast ocean, the cold wind outside the "Qingyun Boat" howled. If one were to stand on the deck, the cold air would be enough to chill one to the bone.

However, Li Yunjing's heart was burning with passion, and the chill had long since vanished.

This time, we gained so much.

Even someone as knowledgeable as Li Yunjing was somewhat excited.

Besides the nine large banners, the Asura witch also possessed a high-grade spiritual weapon called the "Dark Cloud Sword," along with a pile of other mid- to low-grade spiritual weapons.

Of course, there was also a Buddhist treasure among them, a Buddhist oil lamp.

This oil lamp, burning with oil, can help to concentrate the mind, allowing one to quickly enter a meditative state and achieve twice the results with half the effort in cultivation.

Aside from this oil lamp, which was somewhat useful to Li Yunjing, he didn't care for the other treasures and didn't have the time to inventory or study them.

Li Yunjing was more concerned about the income from spirit stones. The witch had as many as 300,000 low-grade spirit stones and 30,000 medium-grade spirit stones.

Such a large number of spirit stones was beyond Li Yunjing's expectations, indicating that this woman truly holds a position within the Buddhist community.

As for the other five elements spiritual objects and rare treasures, the quantity is also quite good, worthy of the witch's cultivation level.

As for other talismans, puppets, low-grade pills, and array plates, there are quite a few. With these things, Li Yunjing could live on for decades.
