Chapter 570 Poisoning the Demonic Cultivator (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

What Li Yunjing truly feared was that tens of thousands of people would see him appear and simultaneously launch a concentrated attack on him.

In that case, Li Yunjing would be doomed!
Only those involved truly know the dangers involved.

These people from the "Demon Control Sect" clearly look down on him, believing that the four Golden Core Realm elders, along with hundreds of Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, are more than capable of easily killing him.

This is the opportunity.

With so many people locked in combat, it would be impossible for the "Demon Control Sect" to concentrate their attacks.

They can't possibly abandon several hundred people, can they?

Especially since there are four elders!
Li Yunjing lightly touched the ground with his toes, his figure weaving through the crowd like a ghost.

The "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword" transformed into a stream of light. Wherever the sword's edge swept, the protective aura of a Foundation Establishment cultivator was easily pierced like thin paper, and blood splattered everywhere.

He specifically targeted isolated or weaker cultivators in the Qi Refining or Foundation Establishment stages, each strike precise and leaving no chance for his opponents to retaliate.

"Hmph! A little trick!"

An elder at the Golden Core stage roared and unleashed a black sword beam from his longsword, aiming straight for Li Yunjing's back.

"Heh! Then you catch up and we'll see!"

Li Yunjing was prepared. He flashed and used the "Thunder Escape Technique" to instantly appear dozens of meters away.

The black sword light slammed into the ground, creating a huge crater and sending debris flying everywhere.

"Want to run? It's not that easy!"

Another elder at the Golden Core stage formed hand seals and chanted incantations.

Suddenly, countless black vines sprouted from the ground, coiling towards Li Yunjing like giant pythons.

Li Yunjing's eyes sharpened. The five elements shone brightly on the "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword." He swung the sword and unleashed a five-element sword aura that swept out, severing all the black vines.

However, just as he was dealing with these two Golden Core Realm elders, two other Golden Core Realm elders flanked him from both sides, and the four of them surrounded Li Yunjing, trapping him in the center.

"Bang bang bang!"

The Foundation Establishment cultivators around him also unleashed their magic weapons, and countless beams of light shot towards Li Yunjing.

Li Yunjing remained calm, quickly forming hand seals and shouting, "Five Elements Shield!"

Instantly, the power of the five elements condensed into a huge shield around him, blocking all the incoming magical light.

However, under continuous attacks, the shield flickered with light, seemingly on the verge of shattering at any moment.

"break!"

An elder at the Golden Core stage seized the opportunity, thrusting out his longsword. A sword aura containing immense power struck the weak point of the shield.

With a loud "boom," the Five Elements Shield shattered, and Li Yunjing was sent flying backward by the powerful impact, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Just when the demonic cultivators thought victory was assured, a cold glint flashed in Li Yunjing's eyes.

He unleashed the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner"!
"Crash!"

The "Ten Thousand Poison Banner" unfolded, releasing a large amount of emerald green poisonous smoke.

In just a few breaths, a hundred-zhang-wide green, highly toxic space was formed.

"Ah ah ah..."

The hundreds of Foundation Establishment cultivators who were chasing him were caught off guard and crashed into the surging green poisonous miasma, their protective qi hissing like thin paper.

"help me……"

The gray-robed old man at the forefront suddenly clutched his throat, and yellowish fluid resembling rotting flesh seeped from between his fingers.

His eyeballs were melting inside their sockets.

"It's...it's the bone-melting poisonous smoke!"

Some people had just started performing the antidote incantation when they discovered that emerald green mist was seeping into their bodies through their pores.

A female cultivator with her hair in two buns suddenly knelt down. Her lower abdomen swelled up like an inflated sack, and through her translucent skin, one could see her internal organs slowly turning into foul-smelling pus and blood.

"Help……"

Blood blossoms burst forth in the poisonous fog, and the emerald green miasma even tainted the explosive spiritual energy with deadly poison. Fragments of flesh and bone splattered onto their companions, instantly corroding them with sizzling, bloody holes.

A burly man swung his knife and severed his corroded left arm, but dense green mycelium sprouted from the cut and quickly wrapped around him, turning him into a twitching humanoid mushroom.

The most terrifying thing is those who are still alive.

A young monk was wailing as he clutched his liquefied legs when suddenly hundreds of transparent worms crawled out of his gaping mouth.

After devouring their internal organs, they scrambled to escape the dying body.

The hundred-foot-wide poisonous area continues to expand.

The area near the mountain gate plaza of the "Demon Extermination Sect" has become a battlefield of carnage. The rotting corpses piled up on the ground have begun to devour and merge with each other under the catalysis of the poisonous smoke, forming a deformed pile of flesh with three heads and six arms that is still writhing.

As the final, abrupt scream faded away, hundreds of corpses within the vortex created by the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner" were decomposing at a visible speed, eventually turning into a pool of bubbling, dark green liquid. Even the magical flying sword was corroded with spiderweb-like cracks.

A gentle breeze swept by, leaving only a few scraps of clothing, stained with bits of flesh, fluttering on the scorched earth.

The tens of thousands of members of the "Demon Control Sect" in the distance were stunned. They even forgot to attack and to save their fellow disciples.

The four elders were also suffering from the deadly poison, unable to move, and waiting for death in despair.

No one expected that the people of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" would possess such an evil magic weapon!
Do not!
This is not a precious artifact!
This is a magical artifact!

Could it be that the people of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" are also secretly forging demonic weapons?
"Oh shit!"

Li Yunjing was startled and couldn't help but swear. The "Ten Thousand Poison Banner" had evolved several times and its power was no longer comparable to when he first obtained it.

In recent years, Li Yunjing's combat strength has been formidable, and he generally doesn't use the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner" much.

Moreover, even when they do make a move, it's usually aimed at experts, and they rarely slaughter low-level cultivators.

Seeing the horrific scene of using the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner," even Li Yunjing frowned, secretly regretting whether he had been too cruel.
Several hundred demonic cultivators were still human, after all. To die in agony, with no complete corpse, is that right or wrong?

Li Yunjing then looked at the tragic scene at the altar!

At least 100,000 cultivators were killed!

Compared to the "Demon-Suppressing Sect," what I have done seems to be nothing at all.
Thinking of this, Li Yunjing's heart turned cold again. With a wave of the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner", the poisonous smoke had spread to a thousand feet!

Taking advantage of the obstructed vision amidst the poisonous fog, Li Yunjing seized the opportunity to use "Thunder Escape Technique" and rushed towards the altar.

Destroying the "Soul-Suppressing Nails" on the altar and losing the power of the blood sacrifice would weaken the island's protective array, dealing a huge blow to the "Demon-Suppressing Sect" and buying more time for the three Supreme Elders outside.

The poisonous fog surged like ink, and Li Yunjing sped through the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, stepping on the blue light of the "Thunder Escape Technique." The "Ten Thousand Poison Banner" in his hand was still buzzing and trembling, as if it was thirsting for more living souls to nourish it.

After slaying all the enemies along the way, Li Yunjing forcibly suppressed the ferocity of the magic weapon and fixed his gaze on the hundred-foot-tall Soul-Suppressing Pillar in the center of the altar.

The pillar is covered with densely packed incantations and seals, and a blood-red pearl is inlaid at the top, continuously absorbing the essence blood of the cultivators on the "Soul-Suppressing Nail".

"Five Elements Divine Thunder!"

"Yin Yang Divine Thunder!"

"Chaos God Thunder!"

"Destruction God's Thunder!"

"Purple Sky Divine Thunder!"

Li Yunjing roared, "Heavenly Thunder Emperor Seal" connected with his sea of ​​consciousness, once again drawing upon the power of the thunder sea. He transformed into a bolt of lightning and crashed into the Soul-Suppressing Pillar.

"Boom!"

The terrifying explosion of lightning almost used up Li Yunjing's maximum power.

The entire "Black Reef Island" seemed to tremble.

Outside, Yu Mozi and the two Supreme Elders were greatly surprised, realizing that something had happened within the sect.

The three felt a chill in their hearts and wanted to turn back, but they were blocked by the three great masters, Lei Ze Zhenren, Jiu You Zhenren, and Dan Ding Fengzhu, and could neither advance nor retreat.

With a "crack" sound, many of the "soul-suppressing nails" on the altar shattered, and the corpses fell to the ground.

The blood-red light on the altar trembled slightly, seemingly becoming unstable.

"Oh no, this is the backlash from the blood sacrifice formation!"

Li Yunjing felt a chill creep into his heart through his meridians, and countless distorted faces appeared before his eyes.

They are all the wronged souls of cultivators who were nailed to death by the Soul-Suppressing Nails.

He bit his tongue, using his own blood essence to light the "Myriad Lotus Lamp," which emitted a purifying light. "Sizzle sizzle..."

These wronged souls, enveloped in the light of purification, emitted painful, distorted expressions.

However, after a short while, it seemed to regain a trace of its spiritual consciousness, and actually bowed to Li Yunjing before disappearing into the world.

As for whether he has passed away?
This is something Li Yunjing couldn't possibly know.

His cultivation level was too low to comprehend the mysteries of life and death, and naturally he had no ability to understand the affairs of the Nine Netherworld.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, he leaped onto the "Soul-Suppressing Pillar" and swung the "Yin-Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword" at the blood-red pearl at the top.

"boom!"

The moment the precious pearl exploded, spiderweb-like cracks appeared in the altar floor, and a deafening roar like the wails of ten thousand ghosts echoed from underground.

Li Yunjing glimpsed hundreds of blood droplets floating in the churning black liquid in the crevice.

It turns out that the "Demon Control Sect" has been using human blood sacrifices to nourish these demonic seeds for many years!
"What an evil sect! Today, I will wipe out your entire clan!"

His killing intent intensified, and he formed a fire seal with his fingertips. "Samadhi True Fire" rose from his palm and swept towards the blood droplets falling through the crack.

"Ah! You scum of the 'Divine Firmament Dao Sect,' how dare you..."

A roar suddenly came from behind the altar, and an old man in a black robe stepped into the air. As the copper bell in his hand swayed, countless talismans emerged from the void, transforming into a sky-covering array of blades that slashed towards Li Yunjing.

This person is the Third Elder of the "Demon Controlling Sect," known as "Poison Heart Elder." His cultivation has reached the peak of the Golden Core stage, and he is only half a step away from the Nascent Soul stage.

Seeing Li Yunjing destroy the "Demon Control Sect's" hard work of tens of thousands of years, how could he not be furious?
"You old bastard! I'll kill you too!"

Li Yunjing neither dodged nor evaded, but instead unleashed the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner." The poisonous mist collided with the sword array, instantly erupting with dazzling purple light, and a poison crystal skull condensed in mid-air.

"You think you can defeat me with just this little bit of poisonous fog?"

Poison Heart Old Man sneered, flicking three emerald pills from his fingertips. "These are divine pills I refined, specially made to counter poison cultivators!"

Before he finished speaking, Li Yunjing suddenly revealed a strange smile, and pills appeared one by one from within the poisonous smoke.

"Boom!"

The pills, mixed with the poisonous smoke, flew towards the man, but before they even got close, they suddenly exploded, transforming into terrifying power that struck him.

"Your... pill will explode..."

Poison Heart Old Man stared wide-eyed at the powerful energy emanating from his chest, black blood gushing from his throat.

These pills were just some little trinkets that Peak Master Dan Ding gave to Li Yunjing!

This attack method was unexpected, hidden within the poisonous smoke, and incredibly lethal, severely injuring this master of the demonic path.

"Those who kill will surely die by the sword!"

Li Yunjing did not answer, but instead kicked the old man in the chest, sending him flying into the pool of blood.

Almost instantly, the man's body was shredded into dust, turning into wisps of blood mist, and he perished completely, without even his golden core escaping.

He turned to look around the altar. By this time, the poisonous fog had spread to the entire mountain gate. Many demonic cultivators had either turned into pus or had their faces disfigured by the poisonous fog. The wails gradually faded into deathly silence.

Most of the others have retreated step by step, regrouped, and are using the power of the formation to continuously refine the poisonous smoke and prevent its spread.

Li Yunjing didn't care that the area affected by the toxic fumes was being reduced.

Anyway, his goal has been achieved.

Once the island-protecting formation of the "Demon-Suppressing Sect" is destroyed, everything will be back to its original value.

The poisonous smoke from the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner" has been depleted; at worst, we can simply stop using this magical artifact for a while.

Anyway, he has many treasures on him, so losing one or two items won't affect Li Yunjing's combat power at all.

"Li Yunjing! How dare you slaughter my 'Demon Control Sect' disciples!"

Outside "Black Reef Island," the roar of the Demon Lord echoed, his figure enveloped in surging demonic energy, followed by two blood-soaked Supreme Elders.

All three were severely injured and their Nascent Soul power was unstable, but the killing intent in their eyes was almost tangible.

After fighting against Lei Ze Zhenren, Jiu You Zhenren, and Dan Ding Peak Master, the three paid a heavy price before finally shaking off the Supreme Elder of the Shenxiao Dao Sect and returning to their sect.

Behind Yu Mozi and his group, three top experts—Lei Ze Zhenren, Jiu You Zhenren, and Dan Ding Fengzhu—had already caught up, not giving them a chance to ambush Li Yunjing.

Li Yunjing looked up and gave a disdainful sneer.

"Today is the end of your 'Demon Extermination Sect'!"

Li Yunjing ignored the three demon-controlling disciples and instead moved away from them, beginning his pursuit of the Golden Core cultivators from the "Demon-Controlling Sect".

These demonic sects are too evil.

This fueled Li Yunjing's anger and led him to consider eliminating the threat completely.

Li Yunjing transformed into a streak of purple lightning, weaving through the ranks of demonic cultivators. Each swing of the "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword" was accompanied by the screams of Golden Core cultivators.

Those demonic cultivators who tried to stop him with their formations could only watch helplessly as the sword light pierced their chests, their meridians being gnawed away by insects under the corrosive effects of the remaining poison of the Myriad Poison Banner.

"Stop him! Activate the 'Nine Netherworld Fire Formation'!"

The surviving elders of the "Demon Control Sect" roared hoarsely.

In an instant, nine white bone towers rose up around the sect, and dark blue flames shot into the sky, weaving into an impenetrable net of fire that trapped Li Yunjing in the center.

A mournful wail echoed from the flames, each flame carrying a deadly poison.

"Just in time!"

Li Yunjing laughed loudly, his five elements power circulating wildly throughout his body.

The "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword" and "Five Dragon Wheel" in his hands suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, and the power of the five elements transformed into five giant dragons that soared straight into the sky.

The golden dragon swallowed the fire, the wooden dragon coiled around the tower, the water dragon extinguished the fire, the fire dragon burned the bones, and the earth dragon suppressed the ground. Under the impact of the five elements, the Nine Netherworld Fire Array collapsed with a roar. The White Bone Tower turned into dust, and thousands of Foundation Establishment stage demonic cultivators in the array were shattered by the aftershocks.

"You little bastard! Prepare to die!"

With bloodshot eyes, Yu Mozi unleashed his natal magic weapon, the "Netherworld Blood River Banner," unleashing a torrent of blood waves that swept towards Li Yunjing, carrying with it countless wronged souls.

Wherever the blood wave passed, space cracked inch by inch, and the ground of Black Reef Island began to sink, revealing a bottomless abyss.

Lei Ze Zhenren and his two companions followed closely behind, but were entangled by the other two Supreme Elders.

The Nine Netherworld True Man unleashed the "Nine Netherworld Demon Eye," while the Pill Cauldron Peak Master threw out the "Nine Aperture Pill Furnace," once again blocking the crazed Demon Lord.

At this point, "Black Reef Island" was riddled with holes, and the remaining demonic cultivators were powerless to resist under the dual attack of the Five Elements Power and the poisonous fog.

"Sect Leader! Let's retreat! As long as we're alive, we can always fight again! If we fight to the death, we're finished!"

Seeing that Yu Mozi had gone mad, the remaining two Grand Elders shouted and tried to warn him.

"Ugh!"

Upon hearing the Supreme Elder's shout, Yu Mozi looked around and felt a chill in his heart.

The once vast "Demon-Suppressing Sect" had no fewer than 50,000 disciples. Now, does it still have 20,000?
Just as the two elders said, if they continue fighting and fail to kill the four members of the "Divine Firmament Dao Sect", won't they have exhausted all their resources?

The Demon-Suppressing Sect still has three Supreme Elders and 20,000 disciples. They can still find a place to make a comeback!

With this thought in mind, Yu Mozi slowed down his movements.

"retreat!"

He shouted and threw out a "skull ship". The demon ship emitted beams of dark light, which shot towards the disciples of the "Demon Control Sect" and captured them one by one into the "skull ship".

"Eliminate the remaining forces!"

Seeing this, Master Lei Ze knew that the people from the Demon-Suppressing Sect were going to run away. He gave an order, and the Divine Firmament Warship came down from the sky. The giant cannons roared and killed all the demon cultivators who tried to escape.

On the deck of the "Skull Ship," Yu Mozi coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the "Netherworld Blood River Banner" in his hand went dark.

He gripped the ship's gunwale tightly, watching the "Divine Firmament Warship" relentlessly pursuing him. The lightning gathered at the bow cannons was like a blazing sun, trying to dispel the demonic energy of the Demonic Sect.

"Activate the Blood Bone Sails! Use the disciples' essence and blood to power them!"

His hoarse roar caused the surrounding demonic cultivators' expressions to change drastically, but no one dared to disobey him.

As a shrill scream rang out, the blood-red canvas on the mast of the "Skull Ship" suddenly swelled up, and tens of thousands of chains emerged from the canvas, pulling the nearby demonic cultivators up like puppets on strings.

The disciples' essence and blood transformed into crimson light that flowed onto the canvas, causing the "skull ship" to increase its speed dramatically, leaving a trail of blood thousands of feet long on the sea.

Of the total 20,000 disciples of the "Demon Control Sect," only half boarded the "Skull Ship." The remaining Qi Refining Realm cultivators were all abandoned and left to fend for themselves.

At this moment, many Foundation Establishment cultivators on the ship saw no hope of survival. Instead, they were sacrificed by the sect leader, their power becoming the energy to power the "skull ship."
