Gou Zai Xianwu Chaos World, Physical Sainthood

Chapter 121 Assault

Lu Cheng took in Shen Yi's expression and understood what she wanted to say.

He is currently wanted by the Dongyang Sect, so running back to the Dongyang Sect would likely result in him being discovered.

However, Lu Cheng wasn't too worried.

With Yun Huizi in the county town, the Dongyang Sect only had some peak masters and elders who had reached the peak of body refinement.

Lu Cheng himself is already in the late stage, and he also has the Wind and Thunder Flash skill. Even if he can't win, it's not difficult for him to leave.

After the three of them reached an agreement, Lu Cheng did not set off immediately.

Only two days had passed since Yun Chengzi's death and the theft of the Heart-Questioning Hammer.

Xu Zhao still needs seven or eight more refinements to perfect the Heart-Questioning Hammer.

Lu Cheng took this opportunity to improve his cultivation.

Seven days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Lu Cheng never left the Zhenwu Army camp, and with a sufficient supply of pills, his martial arts realm steadily improved.

Aside from the significant improvement in all the human-level martial arts skills, the biggest gains were in several core cultivation techniques.

.

[The Lesser Secret of Longevity]

[Grade: top grade on the ground level]

[Realm: Dacheng (163/400)]

【Subduing Dragon and Suppressing Elephant Skill】

[Grade: Lower Grade]

[Realm Level: Minor Success (155/300)]

[River-Blocking Halberd Technique]

[Rank: Mid-grade Earth Rank]

[Realm Level: Minor Success (190/300)]

【Lingxi Jue】

[Grade: Lower Grade]

[Realm Level: Minor Success (31/300)]

Thanks to those ten Bone Tempering Pills, the skill that made the most progress was the "Subduing Dragon and Suppressing Elephant Technique".

One Yin Refining session can circulate five cycles.

Lu Cheng tried it out and found that even if ordinary swords and knives were used to cut the chipped edge, they could not damage his skin at all.

With his current physical strength, he could stand still and let the two elders of Wenxin Peak beat him without getting hurt.

His arms are already 5,500 jin strong!

Following this trend, when the "Subduing Dragon and Suppressing Elephant Skill" is perfected, even if it weighs less than 10,000 jin, it will be close to that amount.

There's only the Blood Burning Secret Technique, which hasn't seen much progress.

Practicing this secret technique requires constantly consuming one's vital energy and blood.

The biggest limitation on Lu Cheng's progress in martial arts is that his blood and qi recovery speed is too slow.

.

For seven days, Lu Cheng would sneak into that small courtyard every day to ask Ge Long for information.

Therefore, he was fully aware of Xu Zhao's progress in refining the Heart-Questioning Hammer.

Tomorrow, the eighth day, Xu Zhao will emerge from seclusion.

Once they make a move, the entire Dongyang Sect will be under extreme martial law, making it difficult to sneak in again.

Therefore, Lu Cheng took advantage of the night to leave Dongyang County and headed towards the huge shadow in the northwest.

With Lu Cheng's current speed, he could cover sixty miles in a single step.

Half an hour later, Lingbi Mountain, resembling a sleeping giant beast, appeared before them.

The night was hazy, and the mountain wind howled.

The lights on Yingke Peak were sparse, showing no trace of its former prosperity.

Occasionally, a mountain breeze would blow, and even the last remaining light would be obscured by the swaying trees.

Along the mountain path, four gate towers stood in the darkness.

From a distance, it looks like a bottomless maw, swallowing up the last remaining moonlight.

"Why."

Lu Cheng sighed inwardly.

Just a few days after leaving the mountain, the once beautiful "Lingbi Cave Heaven" suddenly appeared somewhat desolate.

Lu Cheng did not go up the mountain. When he was still several hundred meters away from the mountain path, he turned and walked towards the shady side of the mountain.

The night breeze was slightly cool on the mountain path.

Lu Cheng concealed his aura and released the Spirit Rhinoceros Technique for investigation.

Now that the Spiritual Rhinoceros Technique has been mastered to a minor degree, when facing martial artists of a lower cultivation level, the opponent cannot sense Lu Cheng's probing.

In the dead of night, it's impossible for any Grand Elder who has reached the peak of Body Refinement to be hiding in the ravine as a sentry.

The further into the mountains you go, the quieter the chirping of insects becomes.

When we arrived at the foot of Taihe Peak, almost all we could hear was the sound of the wind.

Lu Cheng slowed his pace and looked up.

Under the moonlight, Taihe Peak emitted a silvery-gray outline, like a light shield covering the entire mountain.

He didn't know what the situation was like inside Taihe Peak. When Yun Lingzi and the other two were in seclusion, they asked Yun Huizi to oversee Taihe Peak.

Now that Yun Huizi is gone, it's unclear who will be in charge.

Lu Cheng was about to head up the mountain when he suddenly remembered something.

He turned to look at Zixia Peak and said, "Since chaos is about to break out, we might as well wait a little longer and take Wan Chuan's life before summoning Yun Lingzi."

Having said that, he strode off toward Zixia Peak.

On Zixia Peak, Xing Du, Wan Chuan, Wei Lang, Feng Shu and others had just parted ways.

So much has happened in the past few days.

The group originally only wanted to target Lu Cheng, but somehow things suddenly turned out this way.

Now that things have come to this, even Xing Du doesn't know what to do.

More importantly, Qin Yan's death instilled a sense of fear in them all.

The matter has exceeded the capabilities of these individuals.

Therefore, they unanimously decided to lock their doors and focus on their spiritual practice.

Unfortunately, it's too late.

"Knock knock knock".

Ye Liuyun was startled by the sudden knocking on the door.

Therefore, after returning to his residence, he had no intention of practicing meditation and went straight to wash up and go to sleep.

Hearing the knock on the door, the unease in my heart was startled and turned into anger. I couldn't help but yell at the door, completely losing my usual "carefree" demeanor: "Who is it, disturbing my peace and quiet in the middle of the night!"

Huang Chulei's laughter rang out from outside: "It's me. Why is Senior Brother Ye so angry? Senior Brother Xing forgot to tell you something, so I asked you to pass it on to him when I pass by."

Ye Liuyun didn't want to open the door, but after hearing Huang Chulei's words, he finally suppressed his anger and came to the courtyard.

With a creak, the door opened, and without even looking, he snapped and urged, "Hurry up and say it, then I'll—"

"Pfft!"

'

Before Ye Liuyun could finish speaking, a flash of silver light appeared before his eyes, and the power in his body dissipated like water.

Before he could react, another flash of light appeared, and a fine head flew into the air.

It crashed to the ground with a "bang".

Lin Quan's figure appeared from the side, sheathing his sword.

Without even glancing at them, he turned and left: "Wei Lang and Feng Shu are both at the mid-stage, so they're not easy to deal with. Let's find Wan Chuan first."

After an incense stick had burned, Lin Quan sheathed his sword, and he and Huang Chulei closed the courtyard gate and disappeared into the darkness.

The two figures moved swiftly in the darkness. After walking for a short while, Huang Chulei decided on the next target: "Wei Lang is much more vigilant than Feng Shu, so let's find Feng Shu for the last one."

'

Lin Quan didn't speak, and suddenly stopped.

Huang Chulei: "What's wrong?"

'

Lin Quan looked at a small courtyard not far away and said softly, "Didn't you want to go and have Pu Feng personally kill those two old guys? Why don't we find an easier one for this last one? It's less risky and will be more likely to lure Yun Huizi back."

Upon hearing the words "old man," Huang Chulei's hands clenched tightly, her eyes revealing resentment and hatred: "Fine, I'll listen to you!"

""

The two took a moment to catch their breath, then strolled towards the small courtyard ahead.

Lu Cheng stealthily made his way up Zixia Peak, avoiding both overt and covert sentry posts.

The patrol team within the sect consisted of only a Body Refinement Realm cultivator leading a team of Strength Refinement Realm cultivators.

However, the people living on Zixia Peak were all disciples in the Body Refinement Realm.

Apart from the main hall and two pavilions at the top of the mountain, which were heavily guarded, the rest of the area was actually more relaxed than other places.

Therefore, Lu Cheng arrived at Wan Chuan's courtyard with considerable ease.

Once outside the courtyard, Lu Cheng first used the Spiritual Connection Technique to inward, but unexpectedly received no response.

.

Just as I was wondering what was going on, I suddenly smelled a hint of blood.

Lu Cheng immediately climbed over the courtyard, and before he even landed, he saw a large amount of blood and Wan Chuan's dismembered body.

Lu Cheng narrowed his eyes, immediately realizing something: "Has it already started?"

"That saved me some effort."

""

Just as he was about to pack up Wan Chuan's dog head, a sudden thought struck him: "Oh no!"

"Knock knock knock".

Huang Chulei raised her hand and knocked on the door.

The next moment, Du Ruo's voice rang out from inside the courtyard: "Who is it?"

Huang Chulei forced a smile:

.

"Junior Sister Du, it's me. Uncle Yun Huizi sent a message back to the mountain, which included instructions for you. I thought it couldn't be delayed, so I brought it to you."

""

"Please wait a moment, senior sister."

Soon, footsteps approached from afar in the courtyard.

Huang Chulei slightly turned her body to the side, creating some distance between them.

Lin Quan quietly placed his hand on the hilt of the knife and slowly tightened his grip.

Realizing something was wrong, Lu Cheng immediately darted out of the courtyard and rushed towards Du Ruo's residence.

It moved so fast that it left a trail of afterimages on the dark mountain road.

But after rushing around for a long time, there was still no sign of them.

No longer caring about anything else, his body trembled, and a burst of light flashed behind him.

With a low rumble of wind and thunder, Lu Cheng's figure suddenly vanished.

The trees on both sides of the mountain road rustled in the strong wind, startling several night birds.

.

"Squeak~"

Du Ruo slowly opened the courtyard gate.

At the same time, Huang Chulei drew her longsword.

Lin Quan, who had been hiding to the side, suddenly drew his sword.

"careful!

""

"Bang!

'
