Mortal: Li Feiyu, who came from the realm of a supreme being

In mid-air, Elder Gu successfully ambushed Elder Miao, signaling the start of the chaos.

Wu Chou brandished his anchor-shaped magic weapon and roared, "My lads, come out now!"

At this moment, the disciples of Jiyin Island, who had been hiding in the crowd, had all long since dropped their disguises. Li Feiyu had also arrived at the entrance of the rest room, watching Han Li and Qu Hun sneak over with a half-smile.

"You really are here. Let's run!" Han Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He subconsciously felt that since Li Feiyu was there, this hurdle shouldn't be too difficult to overcome.

But he didn't hesitate at all and rushed straight in.

Li Feiyu was quick to follow and entered the passage.

"Hey Hanzi, are you some kind of jinx? How come you always run into this kind of trouble wherever you go? You even ruined my chance to watch the Demon Suppression Ceremony." Li Feiyu's teasing words instantly eased the tension of escaping for his life.

Han Li said irritably, "Do you think I wanted this? We've fought to the death, and they won't even give us a single Dust-Clearing Pill. What a huge loss!"

"It's too early to say we've lost out." Li Feiyu walked briskly alongside Han Li in the passage, her tone relaxed. "Who says the Dust-Clearing Pill has to be among the prizes?"

Upon hearing this, Han Li turned to look at him: "And what do you know?"

Li Feiyu smiled but didn't answer, only pointing to the faint roar of battle coming from above: "It's quite lively up there now. I just looked at the cultivation technique of that Wu Chou from Jiyin Island, and it's similar to the Qu Hun technique. It should be the source of your technique. Hey, Xiao Hanzi, you're lucky. You've already formed an alliance with a Nascent Soul level force so quickly."

"I'm speechless..." Han Li could only mutter, "Hurry up and fix the flaws in my avatar."

"Don't worry, with so many pills, I won't be half-hearted. This kind of demonic cultivation technique is always a double-edged sword, even for those with backdoor access to the technique. Watch me get you a big job later."

Receiving Li Feiyu's assurance, Han Li's mood improved slightly, but he immediately realized, "Wait, weren't you supposed to stay and watch the show?"

"How can it not be? Isn't this exciting enough?" Li Feiyu smiled and added, "I can tell you the truth: it's not difficult for your brother Fei to get you out of trouble, but are you willing to go back empty-handed?"

A glint flashed in Han Li's eyes, and he instantly understood: "So, you're here for the Dust-Clearing Pill too?"

"That's natural," Li Feiyu said calmly. "Since they're not giving out rewards, according to the rules of the martial arts world, we'll have to earn them ourselves through our own abilities."

"To attack a Core Formation stage cultivator?" Han Li's heart skipped a beat, clearly hesitant.

Li Feiyu didn't try to persuade him further, only saying, "Just say it whether you're going to do it or not, don't beat around the bush."

Although Han Li always prioritized stability, he was not lacking in the courage to risk his life. After a moment's thought, he realized that he had many trump cards and methods, and with Li Feiyu's involvement, the chances of successfully dealing with a cultivator in the early stage of Core Formation were still quite high.

"Let's get started! But how do we do it?"

"The people of Jiyin Island should have noticed you. That Elder Gu will definitely be interested in you and come looking for you. After all, you're only at the Foundation Establishment stage, and he'll definitely feel that capturing you would be beneficial." Li Feiyu analyzed the problem based on the answer.

Han Li thought it made sense, but something felt off. It was like using himself to create a nest?

Suddenly, a vortex appeared overhead, and a figure fell towards Han Li.

Li Feiyu reacted quickly, elbowing him aside and catching the small body in purple with both hands.

"Here it is!"

"Don't let them get away!"

At this moment, the pursuers from Jiyin Island caught up, and Han Li and Qu Hun immediately blocked the attack and launched a counterattack.

Without slowing down, Li Feiyu looked at the figure in his arms and said, "Excuse me."

"No need for formalities..." Xiao Wang Ning glanced at Han Li, who had caught up with her. Han Li also recognized her, and the two spoke at the same time:

"You are yesterday..."

"You were just now..."

With the commotion above continuing, Li Feiyu increased her speed to make the two look away from each other.

Little Wang Ning's attention also shifted to the commotion, and overwhelmed with grief, she murmured in a tearful voice, "Father... Mother..."

Li Feiyu sighed inwardly and said, "Please accept my condolences."

Xiao Wang Ning was in low spirits and subconsciously leaned on Li Feiyu's shoulder, sobbing softly.

The three people and the puppet stopped at the closed exit. Li Feiyu and Han Li exchanged a glance, everything was understood without words, and Qu Hun stayed behind to cover their retreat.

Soon, the three arrived at a stone gate.

Li Feiyu put Xiao Wangning down, and the three of them began to examine the door together. Then, Xiao Wangning used her knowledge of astrology to open the door a crack.

After the group entered, the stone door closed again.

"Brother Mo? Uncle Qu, and the unfamiliar young master and young lady, it's amazing that you all managed to find this place." Wen Qiang said with considerable surprise.

"Brother Wen, why are you here? And where is this place?" Han Li asked.

Li Feiyu had no interest in waiting for them to slowly follow the plot, and immediately said, "Judging from this setup, it's clearly the core of an array. As for why it's here... isn't it obvious enough?"

As they spoke, Han Li and Xiao Ziling followed his gaze and saw the person lying to the side.

Wen Qiang did not deny it, but simply told his story.

Ten years ago, his wife, along with more than ten Qi Refining stage cultivators, was on this very Demon Suppression Platform when the Star Palace Elder, citing "boring scenes," replaced the third-tier demonic beasts they were supposed to fight with with fifth-tier demonic beasts, resulting in none of them surviving!

Wen Qiang deeply hated all this decay, and with his daughter's life threatened, he chose to help Jiyin Island and Elder Gu, and did these things.

"Brother Mo, you're a capable man. You know how to keep a low profile, and you're not a bad person. Perhaps if it were you, you could find a way to get out alive." Wen Qiang said, plopping down on the steps and pointing ahead, "Alright, there's a teleportation array to the island here."

After saying that, he took out an array plate and activated it: "I can't leave now that I've done these things. You'd better leave quickly. Next, they're going to release the previous king of demon beasts that was suppressed here to destroy the entire Kui Xing Island's grand array."

"Drawing the magical power of demonic beasts as the source of the formation, I should have expected this day to come."

Li Feiyu, Han Li, Xiao Wangning, and Qu Hun stepped into the formation, silently gazing at Wen Qiang.

The tragedy of the little man is nothing more than this. Wen Qiang took out a leaf and began to play a tune.

With a flash of white light, the group disappeared.

……

The group was teleported to a hillside outside Kui Xing City. Li Feiyu said to Han Li, "Go and check the situation."

Han Li knew that Li Feiyu was referring to Elder Gu, so he nodded and left with Qu Hun.

"The song he was playing just now was a dirge..." Xiao Wang said with a sorrowful expression.

In the distant city of Kui Xing, a gigantic monstrous creature with wings on its back is destroying the Inner Star Sea Array with its bare body.

"Lei Peng... Legend has it that it was slain by the two saints and was sealed here. Now that the Kui Xing Island formation has been broken, there are no more obstacles for demonic beasts below the seventh rank to enter and exit, and the Inner Star Sea will no longer be peaceful." Li Feiyu said with great emotion.

Xiao Wang stared blankly at Kui Xing City in the sea of ​​fire for a moment, then took out a veil and put it on.

"Senior, thank you for saving my life. I will repay you after I, Wang Ning, have fulfilled the wishes of my parents and taken over the Miaoyin Sect." Little Wang Ning said respectfully.

"After this incident, the Star Palace will surely react, so Miss Wang must be extra careful."

Xiao Wang Ning touched the bracelet on her wrist and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Senior. I will take Zi Yi as my surname and the Spirit Bracelet as my given name. I will not show my true face until I avenge my great grudge. From now on, I will be called... Zi Ling!"

"Miss Ziling's ambition is truly moving. With such a reputation, it's unlikely that either the people of the Star Palace or the elders within the sect can shake her position," Li Feiyu reminded her.

Although it's all Han Li's lines, the sentiment is still very strong.

"In that case, I wish Miss Ziling all the best in achieving her wish soon."

At this moment, Han Li and Qu Hun also flew back.

"Hurry, those two Core Formation cultivators are coming!" Han Li immediately cleared the way.

Li Feiyu boarded his Divine Wind Boat and said, "Miss Ziling, take care. I'll be going now."

"Yes, senior, we'll meet again someday." With that, she activated her escape bracelet again and disappeared from the spot.

Han Li's flying boat also covered several miles in the blink of an eye.

"As expected, it was Elder Gu who chased after us. I'll set up an array as a backup plan. Feiyu, are you going to launch the main attack or a sneak attack?" Han Li asked quickly.

"You and Qu Hun will launch a frontal attack to draw their attention, while I seize the opportunity to strike and severely injure and subdue them. Then you can use the 'Crimson Blaze Seal' to refine them."

"So greedy? What if those from the Extreme Yin Island catch up with us?" Han Li was a little worried.

He was 80% confident in defeating Elder Gu if he joined forces with Li Feiyu, but the Core Formation cultivator from Jiyin Island seemed even stronger. If the two of them were unprepared and rashly engaged in battle, they would likely be at a disadvantage.

Li Feiyu knew how to persuade Han Li, and immediately promised: "Help me refine that guy, and I will only take half of the Dust-Reducing Pill. I don't need the rest of the magic treasures and materials. In addition, I will help you solve the hidden danger of your avatar within ten years."

"make a deal!"

……

In the distance, a streak of light rapidly pursued them from the horizon.

The old man transformed into a beam of light, his beard and hair whipping wildly in the wind, his old face contorted with rage: "Two juniors, you think you can escape from my grasp?"

Han Li steered the Divine Wind Boat, speeding towards the predetermined direction without looking back.

"We're almost there," he whispered to Qu Hun.

Qu Hun nodded expressionlessly.

The Divine Wind Boat swept across a rocky beach, and Han Li suddenly pressed down the escape light, causing the three of them to land in a cluster of reefs.

Elder Gu followed closely behind. As soon as he landed, four beams of azure light suddenly rose up around him!

"An array?" Elder Gu's expression changed slightly, but he immediately sneered, "A mere Foundation Establishment stage array thinks it can trap me?"

He flipped his hand and took out an ancient bronze bowl, tossing it into the air.

The Hunyuan Bowl expands in the wind, its mouth facing downwards, shooting out a beam of light that crashes fiercely into the surrounding pillars of light.

boom--

The beam of light trembled violently and shattered after only three breaths.

The Azure Water and Green Armor Formation is broken.

The moment the pillar of light shattered, Qu Hun burst forth from behind the reef, his blood blade transforming into a crimson beam that pierced straight into Elder Gu's back!

"I was prepared for this!" Elder Gu didn't even turn his head, and struck out with his palm.

The palm strike collided with the blood blade, and Qu Hun was forced back three steps. The ancient elder swayed and instead of retreating, he advanced, aiming straight for Qu Hun.

Just then, three thin rays of light silently attacked from the flank; they were the [Red Thread Escape Needles] that had been exchanged with Lady Xiang Lan at the Star Dust Pavilion!

Elder Gu snorted coldly, and his protective divine light surged, blocking all the fine rays.

"A trivial skill!"

Just as he was about to make a sarcastic remark, his protective aura suddenly trembled, revealing several fine cracks. The eerie flames attached to the thirteen red needles were eroding his protective spiritual light.

Elder Gu's expression darkened, and he immediately detonated his protective divine light, blasting away all the remaining red needles, while simultaneously re-forming a new protective light shield.

Just as the new protective layer was about to solidify—

The rocks beneath their feet suddenly exploded!

A figure shot up from the ground and aimed a palm strike straight at Elder Gu's lower body!

Elder Gu's pupils contracted sharply, and at the critical moment, he forcefully turned to the side, barely avoiding this fatal blow.

But just as he breathed a sigh of relief, the figure suddenly twisted its body in mid-air and swept across with a roundhouse kick!

In the blink of an eye, Elder Gu only had time to condense a thin layer of magical shield beside him.

boom--!

A dull, loud bang.

Elder Gu felt as if he had been hit head-on by a mountain, and his whole body was sent flying, crashing heavily into the small mountain wall ten feet away!

Rocks collapsed, and dust rose everywhere.

The old elder struggled out of the human-shaped pit, his hair disheveled and his beard stained with blood, no longer displaying any semblance of his former superiority.

"You little beast! I will tear your soul apart and refine it!"

He roared and pulled out a pair of ancient bronze halberds, ready to fight to the death.

However, Han Li gave him no chance to breathe. The Black Dragon Blade transformed into a streak of black light and coiled around him once more!

In a fit of rage, Elder Gu slapped Wulong away with a single palm strike, cracking several lines on the surface of the magical artifact.

But the next moment, Li Feiyu struck down with another palm!

Elder Gu hurriedly dodged, but the palm strike grazed his shoulder and slammed into the mountain wall behind him.

Boom—

Nearly half of the entire mountain wall collapsed, and where the debris flew, scorching lava flowed down along the palm print!

Elder Gu's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Foundation Establishment stage...body cultivation?!"

He had lived for nearly five hundred years and had never seen a Foundation Establishment cultivator possess such physical strength! That was definitely not something that could be explained by ordinary body-refining techniques.

escape!

This thought instantly occupied his entire mind.

Without saying a word, Elder Gu's escape light surged and he soared into the sky.

However, it flew less than a hundred feet—

hum!

An invisible barrier appeared out of nowhere and bounced him back hard!

"What?! Another formation?!" Elder Gu's eyes widened in fury.

"You think I only set up one array?" Han Li said calmly, the array plate in his hand glowing with a faint light.

"Shameless scoundrel!"

Elder Gu roared and charged towards the barrier, launching a frenzied attack. However, this formation was clearly much stronger than the previous one, and it was impossible to break through it in a short time.

Behind him, Qu Hun's blood-red blade struck again!

Elder Gu was forced to turn around and fight. Just as he blocked Qu Hun's attack, Li Feiyu's figure had already approached him like a ghost!

One palm strike, right on the back of the spine!

Click—!

With a crisp cracking sound, Elder Gu let out a bloodcurdling scream. He curled up like a shrimp, instantly losing all feeling from the waist down.

Before he could react, Li Feiyu's hands moved with lightning speed, grabbing his limbs with incredible speed—

Click click click click!

Four crisp cracking sounds rang out almost simultaneously. Elder Gu's hands and feet twisted at bizarre angles, completely crippled!

"You...!" Elder Gu opened his mouth to roar, his magical power surging wildly within him, wanting to detonate his golden core and perish together with the enemy.

But Li Feiyu was faster.

An extremely domineering surge of true energy poured into Elder Gu's body, like countless chains, tightly locking down every meridian and acupoint!

The flow of magical power froze instantly.

Elder Gu stared wide-eyed, his face filled with despair and resentment.

"Han Li," Li Feiyu said calmly.

Han Li was already prepared, his hands forming hand seals, and he activated the "Crimson Blaze Seal" at full power!

A strange, crimson flame surged from his palm, engulfing the elder. It was no ordinary flame, but a malevolent fire that directly scorched the soul and refined the very essence of existence!

The elder was writhing in agony, his agonizing screams echoing in all directions, only to be drowned out by the roar of the ocean waves. His body visibly withered, charred, and twisted...

In the end, it transformed into a charred, ferocious-looking scorched eagle.

Li Feiyu reached out and gently probed Jiao Diao's chest.

A piece of iron, as black as ink and with strange patterns flowing across its surface, fell into his palm.

Soul Iron.

"Thanks!" Li Feiyu accepted the item without hesitation, then used a palm strike that was both firm and gentle to shatter the charred eagle as much as possible—this thing had no spirituality, was worthless, and was difficult to deal with.

Han Li skillfully collected Elder Gu's storage bag and took out a bottle containing five Dust-Reducing Pills.

Li Feiyu took the three without any politeness, which displeased Han Li.

But considering that he didn't distinguish between other treasures, he reluctantly accepted it.

"Leave immediately." After saying that, Li Feiyu took off on the wind and left the island.

Han Li and Qu Hun also boarded the Divine Wind Boat and ran in another direction.
