Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 422 Spatial Power (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Li Yunjing knows too much.

After just three days of intensive training, Zhao Qi's cultivation bottleneck has loosened somewhat, and it seems that she has the potential to break through to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm in a short period of time!
With such great benefits, Zhao Qi wished she could possess Li Yunjing for life!

In her mind, if she cultivated the "Mysterious Awakening Yin-Yang Dual Cultivation Technique" for a long time, she might not encounter any bottlenecks and could easily break through to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm and cultivate this realm to perfection.

"Hehe! Time to get up, you little glutton!"

Li Yunjing smiled, somewhat speechless.

When a woman is driven by desire, she becomes as fierce as a wolf or a tiger; even a master like him struggled to resist.

Moreover, Li Yunjing has something on his mind and cannot indulge in lust for long; his life is still in the hands of the Daoist nun of the Guanghan Palace!
If it weren't for the need to hand over the mission, Li Yunjing would have run away long ago.

How could I possibly be in the mood to stay in the East China Sea!

He wanted to return to his sect as soon as possible to obtain information about the "Far North" and receive some assistance to improve his cultivation.

Li Yunjing gently pushed Zhao Qi away, straightened his clothes, and regained his composure.

He could not indulge in lust, after all, the hundred-year promise of the Daoist nun of the "Moon Palace" was like a sword hanging over his head, which could fall at any time.

He must improve his strength as soon as possible in order to protect himself in future crises.

"Qi'er, cultivation cannot be rushed."

Li Yunjing looked at Zhao Qi, his tone gentle yet carrying an undeniable firmness, "Although the 'Mysterious Awakening Yin-Yang Dual Cultivation Technique' can help you break through your bottleneck, an unstable foundation is ultimately a hidden danger. You need to cultivate with a calm mind and stabilize your realm in order to go further."

"I see!"

Upon hearing this, a hint of disappointment flashed in Zhao Qi's eyes, but she quickly regained her smile.

She was originally a strong-willed woman.

It was only because these three days of cultivation were both comfortable and could improve one's cultivation level that he became so engrossed in it.

At this moment, after being warned by Li Yunjing, he became more vigilant and knew he couldn't let his desires control him.

Otherwise, how can one firmly establish one's resolve to follow the Way?
Dual cultivation is an embellishment, a seasoning on the path of spiritual practice.

That's not the root cause!

She must heed Li Yunjing's advice.

Having figured all this out, Zhao Qi nodded gently and said, "My husband is right. I was too impatient! But with you by my side, I always feel much more at ease."

"hehe!"

Li Yunjing smiled slightly, reached out and ruffled her hair, and said, "You have good talent. As long as you cultivate with peace of mind, breaking through to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm will not be difficult. After I finish dealing with my current matters, I will cultivate with you."

"Yeah! Got it!"

Zhao Qi nodded obediently, her eyes full of dependence and trust.

After letting Zhao Qi rest well, Li Yunjing went out and first went to "Xingyue Trading Company Store No. 3" to find Li Linzi.

After asking about business matters, he took away the third-tier materials and spirit stones that had been stored in the shop recently.

That day, Li Yunjing set off on the "Azure Cloud Boat" and flew towards "Sacred Sound Island".

The moment Li Yunjing left "Flying Cloud Island," his information was transmitted via a "ten-thousand-mile communication talisman."

Sun Zirui has been keeping a close eye on "Xingyue Trading Company Store No. 3" lately, just waiting for Li Yunjing to leave!

Unexpectedly, this person went into seclusion for three months, which infuriated Sun Zirui!
However, perseverance pays off, and Sun Zirui managed to track down Li Yunjing's whereabouts.

His "Ten Thousand Mile Communication Talisman" was sent to the Black Hand Tianmingzi!
Three months ago, after contacting Black Hand Tianmingzi, the two sides negotiated and, after Sun Zirui paid a huge price, Black Hand Tianmingzi accepted the job.

Li Yunjing's "Azure Cloud Boat" flew out of "Flying Cloud Island" and had only traveled three thousand miles. Just as it was skimming the sea, the ship suddenly trembled violently, and a dark shadow swooped down from the clouds like a ghost.

"Netherworld Ghost Claw!"

Within this dark shadow, two sinister claws, gleaming with a cold light, lunged towards the "Azure Cloud Boat"!

With a single tear, the protective shield on the "Azure Cloud Boat" was ripped to shreds with a "whoosh" sound!

This person's magical power is so immense!
With a single strike, the defenses of the "Azure Cloud Boat" could be completely shattered!
"A high-level Golden Core cultivator!"

Li Yunjing's pupils contracted sharply, and he immediately understood that a master was lying in ambush to kill him.

The fact that they were able to accurately pinpoint their route means that they were informed of their departure time and flight direction when they left "Flying Cloud Island".

Through careful planning, the assassin had lurked here, ready to ambush him.

As soon as this thought crossed Li Yunjing's mind, he frowned. Given his status and the strength he had gained by killing two Golden Core Realm experts, how could someone be so foolish as to provoke him?

This greatly angered Li Yunjing!
Li Yunjing put away the "Azure Cloud Boat," and with a flash, he dodged the attack of the "Netherworld Claw" before looking at the newcomer.

This person was clearly prepared. When he ambushed me, he also used the "Sky-Locking Array Flag" to instantly seal off a hundred-zhang radius of sea area, making it impossible for any cultivator below the sixth level of the Golden Core Realm to escape.

"You brat, prepare to die!"

Dressed in black, Tian Mingzi roared and swung his palms again, unleashing a chilling aura that turned the sky into a dark world. Pale white hands relentlessly struck at Li Yunjing.

However, Li Yunjing's movement speed was quite fast, so he wouldn't be easily hit by Tianmingzi.

"Who are you? Who ordered you to assassinate me!"

Li Yunjing sneered. Above his head, the Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror protected him, casting its light. In his hand, a flash of seven-colored divine light appeared, and the Yin-Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword vibrated repeatedly.

"Boom!"

The "Five Elements Divine Thunder" and "Yin Yang Divine Thunder" vibrated and exploded continuously amidst the ghostly energy. Tian Mingzi's ghostly energy emitted a shrill scream during the explosions, as if the ghostly energy itself had come to life.

The entire sky was bombed, and once again, it was clear and blue.

The thunder magic of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" is specifically designed to subdue these evil spirits and demons!
In particular, Li Yunjing's lightning magic was far more powerful than that of others. In addition, he had enough stored lightning power in his body. With the blessing of the "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword", he was able to withstand Tian Mingzi's attack in a short time.

"Young man! It seems you are indeed as powerful as the legends say! However, your cultivation level is too low, and you will still not escape death!"

Tianmingzi was greatly shocked, but he quickly calmed down, his sinister gaze filled with murderous intent.

Tianmingzi's claws repeatedly grabbed and slashed in mid-air, and the dissipated ghostly energy actually reassembled in the air, transforming into a nine-headed ghost-faced snake, which coiled towards Li Yunjing from all directions.

"What a fiend! He actually managed to cultivate the forbidden technique 'Netherworld Ghost Claw'!"

Li Yunjing's expression changed, and he immediately realized how troublesome Tianmingzi was. He quickly circulated his true essence, and the power of the five elements condensed into "five-colored divine light" outside his body.

"Since you, you fiend, have come here seeking your own death, I will grant your wish!"

Having broken through to the eighth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, and with all the treasures he possessed, Li Yunjing was truly unafraid of these evil spirits!
If the assassins were from the "Tianluo Dao Sect," Li Yunjing would turn and run!
A mere demon, probably not even from some behemoth sect, dares to try and kill me? He's courting death!

With his cultivation greatly improved and a strong desire to kill the demon arose in his heart, Li Yunjing's magic power surged, and the seven-colored sword light surged ten feet, instantly turning the nine-headed ghost-faced snake into dust.

At this moment, Li Yunjing was determined to kill a Golden Core Realm expert to test his own cultivation level!

"Good lad! Your magic weapon seems different! It's not even a high-grade magic weapon yet, but it already has power comparable to a mid-grade magic weapon? What top-tier materials did you incorporate into this sword?"

Tianmingzi was startled, his face darkened, and he asked in a sinister tone.

At the same time, Tianmingzi had a ghost banner in his hand. With a strong shake, twelve black shadows formed the "Big Dipper Killing Formation" and flew to Li Yunjing's side, surrounding him once again.

"What a fiend! You must have harmed millions of lives by crafting this ghost banner!"

Li Yunjing's expression changed, and his eyes blazed with killing intent.

As disciples of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," we were instilled with the idea of ​​slaying demons and eliminating evil.

Tianmingzi had just violated Li Yunjing's taboo, and now he had a reason to die!
"kill!"

Enraged, Li Yunjing flashed his hand and shone the black light of the "Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror" at the twelve ghost generals.

Instantly, these ghost generals let out mournful cries and slowly melted away.

In the world of cultivation, even ghosts and spirits find it difficult to live long! Without a certain level of strength, their lifespan is limited.

The Yin-Yang Mirror's ability to strip away life is almost impossible to counter!
The only way to deal with the "Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror" is either to risk your life or to choose to avoid it.

As long as the light of death cannot shine on the body, it will not shorten one's lifespan.

These ghosts, having been refined to a state of delirium by Tianmingzi, could hardly discern what the black light was.
They had just instinctively sensed danger when Li Yunjing turned them around and shone a beam of death in all directions, instantly turning them into ashes.

"puff……"

Suddenly, Hei Shou Tian Mingzi spat out a mouthful of blood, and cracks appeared on the natal soul banner in his hand.

"That Li Yunjing is something else! He actually managed to injure my divided soul!"

He stared at Li Yunjing with a sinister look, "But do you think you can escape alive just by breaking through the first layer of the killing formation?"

Before he finished speaking, countless ice spikes burst forth from the seabed.

It turns out that the mastermind Tianmingzi had already set up an ice-type restriction on the seabed, which, together with the killing array in the air, formed a three-dimensional strangulation.

"What a treacherous devil!"

At the moment of the explosion, Li Yunjing could only concentrate the "Five-Colored Divine Light" under his feet to withstand the barrage of ice spikes.

Taking advantage of the moment before the "Five-Colored Divine Light" was broken, Li Yunjing threw out twelve "Five Thunder Talismans".

A series of massive explosions rang out, their immense power forcing Tianmingzi to scatter and hide!
These "Five Thunder Talismans" are far more powerful than his ice spikes!
"interesting!"

Black Hand Tianmingzi licked the blood from the corner of his mouth and stared intently at Li Yunjing. "Looks like we'll have to use that thing."

As he spoke, he took out a bronze compass, which was engraved with dense incantations and had half of a "mysterious iron token" inlaid in the center.

When he dripped his blood onto the compass, the incantation on the compass lit up instantly, emitting a faint blue light.

The "half-piece of black iron token" also began to tremble slightly, as if it resonated with some mysterious power.

"Li Yunjing, you managed to force me to use the 'Mysterious Heaven Compass,' so you deserve to die!"

Black Hand Tianmingzi grinned maliciously, and the compass in his hand suddenly began to spin.

As the compass turned, the surrounding space began to distort, as if an invisible force was tearing the heavens and earth apart.

Immediately, Li Yunjing felt a powerful sense of oppression coming over him, and even the true essence in his body began to become sluggish.

"This is... a spatial restriction?"

Li Yunjing was startled, and his expression turned serious.

He never expected that a mere demon would have such a trump card hidden away.

This "Mysterious Heavenly Compass" is clearly an extremely rare spatial magic artifact, capable of sealing off space and restricting the enemy's movements.

"Hahaha! Li Yunjing, under the blockade of this 'Mysterious Heaven Compass,' you have no way to escape!"

Seeing Li Yunjing's expression change, Black Hand Tianmingzi laughed loudly, his eyes full of smugness.

Li Yunjing did not respond, but instead quickly circulated the power of the five elements within his body, attempting to break through the constraints of space.

However, the Five Elements Dao, which was always invincible, was also limited by the Space Dao.

Li Yunjing's true essence was suppressed by an invisible force, both inside and outside his body, and even the "Five-Colored Divine Light" became much dimmer.

Of course, this suppression is not too strong and cannot completely block Li Yunjing's magical output.

However, while fighting his enemy, Li Yunjing also had to contend with this spatial power. As a result, only about 50% of his magical power remained, which was truly enough to contend with Tian Mingzi.

Ordinary cultivators, having lost half their magical power, would be killed almost instantly by an equally matched opponent!
The reason why Hei Shou Tian Ming Zi has such a great reputation in the East China Sea and has killed one opponent after another is because of this "Xuan Tian Compass"!
Only with this item did he dare to plunder cultivators everywhere.

Otherwise, how much ability would a mere sixth-level Golden Core Realm demon cultivator have to dare to run rampant throughout the East Sea?

There are quite a few experts in the East China Sea!

"No, this is not a solution!"

That day, with the help of the "Mysterious Heaven Compass", Mingzi was like a man possessed, constantly unleashing various demonic supernatural powers, forcing Li Yunjing to dodge continuously!
Even this simple movement of his body required Li Yunjing to expend tremendous strength.

Before long, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Li Yunjing took a deep breath, and the power of thunder within his body circulated wildly. Since the power of the five elements was no longer effective and was restrained by the spatial Dao that was not among the five elements, then he would switch to another Dao!
"Five Elements Divine Thunder!"

Li Yunjing let out a low shout, and the thunder power within his body surged. The thunder power accumulated in the previous thunderstorm transformed into thunderballs, heading straight for Black Hand Tianmingzi.

"Hehe! With the power of space, your spellcasting is pitifully slow!"

Seeing the lightning balls shooting towards him, Black Hand Tianmingzi merely sneered, his figure shifting into a wisp of black smoke as he dodged to the other side.

As a master at the sixth level of the Golden Core Realm, Tian Mingzi's escape techniques were far superior to Li Yunjing's.

Now, with the help of the "Mysterious Heaven Compass", he is faster. On the contrary, the divine lightning cast by Li Yunjing is affected by the space and its speed is only 90% of the original speed.

"It's useless! Under the influence of the 'Mysterious Heaven Compass,' none of your attacks can harm me!"

"Black Hand Tianmingzi said smugly."

"Damn it! I never expected that a mere demon would possess such special abilities! Unfortunately, I'm completely unfamiliar with the Dao of Space, and even crafting a 'Hundred Treasures Pouch' is a struggle for me! What am I going to do?"

Li Yunjing frowned, quickly thinking of a solution.

"Hehe! Kid! I'll show you something even more powerful! That way, when you die, you won't die with your eyes wide open in disbelief!"

Just as Li Yunjing was pondering how to deal with the spatial power, the Black Hand Tianmingzi had already launched an attack.

The "Mysterious Heaven Compass" in his hand emitted a buzzing sound and spun again. Countless beams of azure light flew out from the "Mysterious Heaven Compass," transforming into sharp "spatial blades" that rushed straight towards Li Yunjing.

"Oh no! What level of magic weapon is this? How can it possess such a powerful attack method?"

Li Yunjing's expression changed drastically. The "Five-Colored Divine Light" on his body rose up again, and all his defensive magic treasures were summoned and floated around him.

Li Yunjing wore four or five pieces of clothing and armor that were of the treasure level!

This is not the time to be careless.

"Chichichi..."

However, these "spatial blades" are extremely strange and impossible to defend against, constantly jumping in the air and making it difficult to track their trajectory.

Li Yunjing was caught off guard and was struck by a "spatial blade", leaving a bloody gash on his thigh!
Even his Thunder God Body couldn't completely block this attack!

However, when Li Yunjing scanned the wound with his divine sense, he found that the bones and meridians were not damaged. It was just a superficial wound with some blood. It looked terrible, but it was nothing serious. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"Hahaha! Li Yunjing, what other tricks do you have up your sleeve?"

Upon seeing that Li Yunjing was injured, Hei Shou Tian Mingzi laughed loudly, his eyes full of mockery.

"you……"

Li Yunjing's mind raced, and he immediately came up with an idea.

His face turned deathly pale as his true energy surged through him. He staggered through the air, as if his legs had been fatally injured and he was unable to move normally.

"Under my 'Mysterious Heaven Compass,' even the most formidable prodigies of the 'Divine Firmament Dao Sect' will meet their end on the spot!"

"This kid has over a dozen magical artifacts on him! He's really rich!"

"If I kill him, the 'Divine Firmament Dao Sect' will surely be furious and send experts to hunt me down!"

"However, with so many treasures, at worst I can just fly far away and never return to the 'Flying Cloud Sea' again!"

"The East Sea is vast and boundless! Even if the 'Divine Firmament Dao Sect' has immense abilities, they still cannot find my trace!"

At this moment, watching the "blades of space" continuously leave wounds on Li Yunjing's body, making him look like a blood-soaked figure, Tianmingzi was already fantasizing about how to escape.
