Chapter 347: Chapter 198: Breakthrough Again!_2 Chapter 347: Chapter 198: Breakthrough Again!_2 “Xin Er, get ready, this is the final strike.”

His eyes glinted with a cold light, and he began to set his resolve.

Following that, Lu Li activated all the remaining strains of the Power of the World in an instant, pouring them into the Divine Mirror.

Under the telepathy of Liu Luoxin, she spat out several mouthfuls of Essence Blood again, surging towards the Divine Mirror.

The entire surface of the mirror was stained with a deep crimson.

After doing all this, Liu Luoxin’s breath weakened significantly, making her seem unsteady as she quickly leaned back into Lu Li’s arms.

Feeling the condition of his Daoist partner, anger covered Lu Li’s face, and his killing intent surged to no end.

He began to fully exert control over the supreme Rune.

Endless resplendent light shone in the void, with an overwhelmingly powerful aura that stirred up huge waves.

This power, now more than twice as strong as before, was simply unimaginable.

“This is impossible!”

“How does the other side still have such depth to produce this kind of attack?”

Numerous Demon Cultivators were shocked as if they had seen a ghost, dumbfounded.

Hun Shang and Xiao Yong too had their eyes wide open, an endless chill rising from the depths of their hearts.

“Good, good, good… We must win this battle!”

A large group of Venerables from the Righteous Sects all showed joy on their faces.

Such might, already far surpassing the power of the pinnacle Golden Core, would be extremely difficult for the opposing giant Heavenly Demon to withstand.

Only Cheng Xuanying looked worriedly at Liu Luoxin.

Her fellow sister had continuously expended Essence Blood and was likely already gravely damaged at her core, leaving her in a dire state.

Everyone’s thoughts happened in a flash.

After the might of the Divine Mirror soared, the front’s Seven-Colored Rosy Clouds simultaneously strengthened by a great deal.

With an unmatched force, it rapidly evaporated the Blood Beam and then struck fiercely on the chest of the giant Heavenly Demon.

Instantly, a giant hole burst forth, surrounded by large scorched marks.

Strands of foul scent drifted away with the Gang Wind, nauseating to those who smelled it.

“Aw, aw, aw…”

The giant Heavenly Demon began to howl wildly, its body’s spiritual light extremely dim.

In an instant, it split once more into twelve smaller Heavenly Demons, their presence weakened considerably.

“Puh…”

Affected by the backlash, Hun Shang violently spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his face full of resentment.

“This time you got lucky, if my Twelve Heavenly Demons were complete, how could I allow your wildness…”

He quickly gathered up the many demons and, without turning around, sped away behind him.

The Blood-colored tunneling light moved through the vast sea, kicking up layers of mist.

It vanished into the nearby waters in no time.

All of this happened in an instant.

Many Demon Cultivators did not expect Hun Shang to act so decisively, showing fear on their faces.

“Run!”

Many Venerables of the Demon Cultivators took the lead, quickly fleeing towards their own Sects.

Behind them, a large group of Purple Mansion and Foundation Establishment Cultivators unfurled their tunneling light, following closely behind.

Various colored tunneling lights moved through the dense mist, stirring up fierce winds with their intermingled auras.

“Kill!”

Seeing this, a group of Righteous Cultivators went over to pursue them.

“Whoosh…”

The Guardian Sect Giant Sword above also swiftly slashed forward.

Mighty Sword Qi swallowed in the void, emitting bursts of sonic booms.

The Giant Sword swept across like a mountain’s weight, cutting through the ranks of the Demon Cultivators.

“Aah…”

As numerous screams echoed, many Demon Cultivators fell on the spot, their bodies plummeting, their blood staining the nearby sea.

The remaining Demon Cultivators activated their Blood Jutsu, their speed increasing once again.

Lu Li quietly watched Cheng Xuanying and other Golden Core Venerables chase after the fleeing Demon Cultivators, not joining them.

He tightly held Liu Luoxin on the sea’s surface, a worried look on his face.

Her face was pale, her breathing very unstable.

“Husband, I’m fine, we’ve won this battle, at least we’ve earned a hundred years of breathing time.”

Liu Luoxin offered a weak, pitiable smile.

“Let’s go home.”

Lu Li forced a smile, picked her up, and leapt up, quickly tunneling towards Mystic Moon Island.

Surrounded by blue light, he traversed the dense fog, flashing across tens of miles in the blink of an eye, disappearing into the nearby waters.

…

Several hours later.

Lu Li held Liu Luoxin as they passed through the hills and forests at the edge of the island, returning to their cave.

Then he brought Liu Luoxin to the secret chamber in a hurry.

He began to check her injuries.

His Divine Sense carefully scanned her body, making him increasingly shocked, his brows furrowing.

Several decades ago, Liu Luoxin’s Golden Core essence had suffered excessive depletion, and with the considerable consumption of Essence Blood in this battle, her condition had become very serious.

Lu Li placed his hands on the other party and hurriedly operated the Dual Cultivation Technique, starting to regulate the chaotic mana within her.

As time passed,
the mana inside Liu Luoxin gradually stabilized, but her injury hadn’t improved in the slightest. Instead, she closed her eyes, and her Primordial Spirit began to fall into slumber.

This made Lu Li’s expression extremely anxious.

He gently laid Liu Luoxin on the stone bed and then walked out.

Upon reaching the main hall,
Lu Yuxuan quickly ran over, her face full of joy.

“Daddy, did you win? Where is Mother?”

Lu Li gave a slight smile and patted her head.

“Your mother has gone into seclusion, don’t disturb her.”

Lu Yuxuan pouted, evidently dissatisfied.

“She’s always going into seclusion as soon as she gets back, never spending time with Xuan Er…”

Hearing this, she quickly ran off and soon disappeared within the vastness of the hall.

Lu Li’s eyes flickered, and he immediately awakened the Spirit Monkey Ancestor.

Without any hesitation, he transmitted a message: “Ancestor, do you know of any Spiritual Objects that can replenish the Golden Core’s essence and Essence Blood?”

Now that his cultivation had reached the Golden Core, he was qualified to seek such treasures.

The condition of his Daoist couple could not be delayed any longer, and he needed to recover her injuries as quickly as possible.

Moreover, he did not know when the Demon Practitioner might launch another assault.

This battle had only temporarily repelled them, without inflicting a fundamental blow. All those Golden Core Demon Practitioners were still well and unharmed.

The Spirit Monkey Ancestor paused for a moment, his expression solemn: “Such treasures are at least of medium-grade congenital Spiritual Roots, and very rare.”

Lu Li nodded lightly, choosing not to inquire any further.

Several days later, Cheng Xuanying returned to the Sect and came to the couple’s cave.

Lu Li then discussed the matter with her.

Upon hearing it, Cheng Xuanying furrowed her brow.

“The Hornless Dragons of the Demonic Sea of Ten Thousand Demons are rumoured to have a Fourth Grade Spiritual Root, but what it’s like, none of us has ever seen.”

“Not only are those of the Dragon Clan proud, their strength is extremely formidable too. Even an average Golden Core Venerable would not be taken seriously by them.”

Lu Li nodded slightly: “Sister, do you have any news of Nascent Soul cultivators?”

“Those powerful beings seldom appear in the world, there’s no need for you to worry. Besides, they have an agreement with powerful individuals of the Human Clan, not to intervene in matters below the Nascent Soul level…”

Cheng Xuanying’s face broke into a slight smile.

“Cultivators who break through to the Nascent Soul often go in search of minor worlds or venture to the outer battlefield. All these are secrets.”

“To set foot on the path of Earth Immortal, one cannot do so without a Cave Heaven Blessed Land…”

Upon hearing this, Lu Li felt reassured in his heart.

He planned to search among the Dragon Clan after he had broken through to the mid-stage of the Golden Core.

The power of the mid-stage Golden Core would be much stronger than that of the early stage.

At that time, given his strength, he would be able to match a peak Golden Core, and even if discovered by a group of Hornless Dragons, he could swiftly fight his way out.

After exchanging a few more words, Cheng Xuanying stood up and left.

The days that followed were rather uneventful.

Lu Li was meditating and cultivating in his cave dwelling,
occasionally checking on Liu Luoxin, with her condition remaining as usual.

During these days, led by the Three Great Righteous Sects, a multitude of large and small sects’ cultivators brought over a vast array of Spiritual Objects.

For the significant contribution Liu Luoxin and Lu Li made in the battle, everyone was immensely grateful.

Inside the secret chamber of the cave,
Lu Li sat cross-legged, with a plethora of Spiritual Objects spread out on the ground.

Various colors glimmered and flickered, even causing the spiritual energy in the air to become slightly disordered.

With a wave of his hand, he gathered all the Spiritual Objects into his inner world.

His consciousness gradually sank into his body.

Countless Spiritual Objects converged on the central ground of the inner world.

Lu Li manipulated the laws of his world, transforming them into streams of Seven-Colored Rosy Clouds that rained down on the Spiritual Objects on the ground.

“Hiss…”

As a vast amount of Spiritual Objects dissolved, turning into a liquid that sank deep into the ground.

The whole world shook slightly and began to expand dramatically.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

The black mist at the edge of the world rolled fiercely, being rapidly eroded.

Eighteen million five hundred thousand feet, nineteen million five hundred thousand feet…

Not until it reached twenty million feet did the world gradually settle down.

Innumerable lights fluttered in the sky, as if celebrating.

The spiritual energy also surged once again, now comparable to that of a Fourth Rank Spirit Vein.

Above the Central Spiritual Field, an abundance of Spiritual Objects grew lush and full of life.

Countless low-level Demon Beasts scurried and leaped about, with the entire world thriving splendidly.
