I planted the spiritual roots for my people, and they bestowed upon me a body inscribed with incense

Just as the two were struck by the immense force of the white snake, a golden light appeared on Ouyang Suiguan's body, blocking the white snake's attack. However, Xu Qingfeng was not so lucky.

Even though Xu Qingfeng used his magic shield to block most of the damage, he was still slapped by the white snake and coughed up blood.

After that attack, the two of them clearly realized that the white snake was no ordinary demon beast. Although Xu Qingfeng was hit and his foundation was damaged, it was inevitable that his body would be injured by the shock.

Taking advantage of the moment of recovery, Ouyang Suiguan's Golden Edge Sword expanded several times in size under his control and slashed directly at the White Snake. Knowing that this sword was extraordinary, the White Snake dared not use its physical body to take the blow head-on.

The white snake slowly spat out a pure white inner core towards the incoming sword light. Immediately, the demonic power on the inner core began to gather on its scales. In less than half a moment, the inner core was swallowed back into the white snake's mouth, but the white snake's scales had changed from their original pure white color to a silvery white color, and there were also wisps of demonic power wrapped around the scales.

Enveloped in demonic power, the white snake was no longer afraid of the golden sword. It easily blocked the golden sword by swaying its body.

Seeing this, Ouyang Suiguan unleashed two more golden blade techniques at Li Yuan above the white snake's head, probably thinking that Li Yuan was controlling the white snake.

Seeing the two golden blade techniques coming at him, Li Yuan unleashed several spells in succession to defend against them. After a long battle between the man and the snake, Xu Qingfeng slowly recovered.

The first thing Xu Qingfeng did after recovering was to form a hand seal, and a temple appeared behind him. As the black temple behind Xu Qingfeng took shape, Li Yuan also felt a sense of familiarity.

Soon, Li Yuan thought of the evil cultivator in the temple that day, and looked at the scene in front of him, which was very similar to that day.

However, Xu Qingfeng would not give them a chance to resist. As soon as the temple was constructed by Xu Qingfeng, countless black wisps poured down from the temple, engulfing Li Yuan and the white snake.

However, at this moment, the white snake sensed the danger. Ignoring its own injury, it spat out its demon core again, forming a demonic energy shield around itself, which blocked the corrosive black energy.

However, judging from the White Snake's condition, Li Yuan knew that the White Snake wouldn't last long.

After a long stalemate, just as the white snake was about to give up, a sword light shot out from afar, pointing directly at Xu Qingfeng.

Sensing the danger, Xu Qingfeng quickly withdrew his black energy and formed a black shield around himself, which blocked the sword light.

"Who are you, wicked people, daring to cause trouble in my Qingshan County?"

The moment the sound rang out, another sword light attacked from afar. Only after it flew closer did Li Yuan slowly breathe a sigh of relief. Luo Tong had finally arrived.

After Luo Tong arrived, he glanced at Li Yuan standing on the white snake.

"Is Brother Li alright?"

Li Yuan was much more confident.

"Thank you very much, Brother Luo. If you need anything in the future, please feel free to send someone to tell me, and I will do my best to help you."

Luo Tong readily agreed to Li Yuan's suggestion, and then looked at Xu Qingfeng and Ouyang Suiguan.

"Some people, even if they break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, are still cowardly cowards hiding their heads and tails. Fellow Daoists, don't you agree?"

Upon hearing this, the two men's eyes widened in surprise, and Ouyang Suiguan slowly said in a hoarse voice:

"Fellow Daoist, today's matter concerns the feud between us and the Li family. If you withdraw now, I will no longer pursue the matter of your sword strike just now."

Upon hearing this, Luo Tong sneered and then slowly said:

"Ridiculous. Since you two dare not reveal your identities, then get out of here now. Don't wait until a fight breaks out before you run away, or you might not be able to make it in time."

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Suiguan was immediately enraged. Just as he was about to take action, Xu Qingfeng quickly stepped forward and pulled him back. Then the two disappeared into the sky above Zhushan.

Seeing the two disappear, Li Yuan jumped off the white snake and came to Luo Tong's side.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, thank you very much."

Upon hearing this, Luo Tong did not respond, but instead looked at the white snake beside him, then glanced at Li Yuan and slowly said:

"Brother Li, that's impressive. You can even tame a second-tier demonic beast."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan slowly said:

"Having just broken through not long ago, this was originally the trump card of my Li family. Who would have thought that my Li family would be targeted by a Foundation Establishment cultivator? If it weren't for the White Serpent, my Li family would probably be in dire straits today."

After saying this, Li Yuan glanced at Luo Tong and slowly said:

"Brother Luo, have you guessed who it is?" Luo Tong nodded, then slowly said:

"As for this other person, I don't know his background either. I'm afraid he's been plotting this for a while. He came to my Luo family before, seemingly to check my cultivation level. I didn't expect him to be humiliated at your Li family today."

At this point, Luo Tong smiled.

The battle on the mountain had been noticed by those below. Fortunately, the Li family was clever and did not rush up Zhushan. If they had rushed up just now, the two who failed to achieve their goal might have killed a few people to vent their anger.

After confirming that the two had left, Luo Tong left the Li family. As for Li Yuan, he led the Li family to begin restoring everything on Zhushan Mountain.

The collapsed houses were quickly rebuilt, but the Wood Spirit Array and Cloud Smoke Array on Bamboo Mountain were destroyed, and new arrays had to be purchased.

Fortunately, only Li Yuan and the White Snake were on Bamboo Mountain; otherwise, someone from the Li family might have been injured.

As for the white snake, after defeating the two, it reverted to its white snake form and began absorbing spiritual energy to recover within the spirit-locking array.

When Li Yuan came to his senses, he was also quite frightened by what he had just witnessed. He never expected that someone would come looking for trouble while he was peacefully cultivating in seclusion on Bamboo Mountain, and that it would be two Foundation Establishment cultivators.

If the white snake hadn't transformed into a level-two demon beast through the spiritual vein, the entire Li family would probably be corpses by now.

At this moment, in a grove of trees a hundred miles away from the Li family, Ouyang Suiguan looked in the direction of the small fishing village with a gloomy expression.

"Hmph, a Foundation Establishment demon beast. The Li family is really good at hiding their strength. This time, we've already alerted them. It will probably be difficult to take action against the Li family later."

Xu Qingfeng was also very shocked. Last time when the white snake protected Li Yuan, this demon snake was only at the mid-stage of level one. He did not expect that this demon snake would advance so quickly.

There are only two reasons why it could advance so quickly. Either the demonic serpent has extremely high talent, or Li Yuan's ability to cultivate demonic beasts is comparable to that of a Purple Mansion cultivator.

Thinking of this, Xu Qingfeng sneered repeatedly.

"I never imagined that I would struggle for so long to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm. The Li family is so lucky; they can easily cultivate someone to Foundation Establishment combat power."

After Ouyang Suiguan calmed down, Xu Qingfeng slowly spoke:

"Fellow Daoist Ouyang, Luo Tong will surely spread the news that there are two Foundation Establishment evil cultivators in Qingshan County. I'm afraid we can't move around in Qingshan County."

Ouyang Suiguan nodded, then slowly said:

"Longling County, that's where I know the Hundred-Faced Hu Yun is located."

We decided to find out Yang Si's location first before making any plans. After agreeing on the plan, the two of us flew off in different directions.
