Chapter 98: Chapter 82: Slaying a Group of Cultivators! Dominance and Contempt!_2

Lu Li’s heart was filled with murderous intent, his expression extremely cold.

Now, all he wanted was to find a place to wait for the forbidden technique’s effectiveness to expire, these cultivators were really seeking death!

He once again fully stimulated his Flying Sword, fiercely slashing towards a middle-aged man to the side.

“Ah…”

The middle-aged man, seeing the extremely sharp Sword Qi, had a face filled with despair, as the Flying Sword instantly swept away the Defensive Magical Artifact above his head, and ruthlessly chopped towards his skull.

Before he could react, the Sword Qi arrived in an instant, splitting his body straight into two halves, collapsing on the ground.

In a blink of an eye, another was slain!

Lu Li then swallowed two drops of spirit milk, sensing that only about twenty percent of his mana remained, his brows tightly furrowed.

At this moment, the remaining crowd looked at Lu Li with faces full of terror, not daring to act rashly.

A series of deaths made them doubt if this man was really affected by the forbidden technique.

“Could it be that this person is acting? He hasn’t been hit by the valley’s restrictions!”

Thinking this, the whole group of people began to feel uncertain.

With their strength, to forcefully contend against a top True Disciple held little chance of success.

The crowd began to back off.

Then, the situation on the field changed once again!

Lu Li once again fully stimulated the Flying Sword, the massively powerful Sword Qi once again striking towards another middle-aged man in front of him.

The man, his face full of panic, clumsily raised a defensive magical artifact above his head, to no avail.

The Flying Sword instantly cut through the opponent’s magical artifact, then mercilessly chopped into the man’s body, directly cutting him into several sections, blood instantly splattering all over the ground.

“Not good, this person is deceiving us, he hasn’t been affected by the restrictions!”

Seeing this, a group of cultivators was extremely shocked, retreating towards the rear with faces full of unsettled spirits.

Had that attack just now fallen on anyone present, it would’ve been a scene of death and the end of their path.

After this blow, Lu Li’s mana was almost depleted, but the effect was very good.

Seeing the group deterred, he felt quite satisfied in his heart.

Lu Li coldly glanced at the cultivators opposite him, then turned and slowly flew towards the back.

For a time, not a single one came forward to stop him, the corpses of those who had tried previously were still warm.

The crowd watched, their faces extremely ugly, as Lu Li slowly receded into the distance.

Only when he was more than two li away from the crowd did Lu Li drink a few more drops of spirit milk, then like a flash of lightning, he dashed towards the front, disappearing from the crowd’s sight after a few breaths.

“Ah… Bastard! That kid’s mana is about to run out, he’s deceiving us!”

Seeing Lu Li quickly escaping, the crowd suddenly came to their senses, anger clearly visible on their faces.

“I’m so regretful! Why didn’t I persist just one more time…”

“That kid is too cunning, the instigator behind the Copper Armor Zombies was none other than him, a whole group of our peers sucked dry of their Essence Blood, the nearby areas are all buzzing with the news.”

The people began to regret profoundly, tens of thousands of Spirit Stones just like that, flying out of sight.

It wasn’t until Lu Li had escaped more than ten li that he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing no one around, he came to the edge of a thicket, once again using his Flying Sword to dig out a hole large enough to fit a person and then buried his entire body within.

……

More than ten days later, atop a tall tree canopy.

Lu Li stood on the branches, surveying the surroundings.

These past few days, he had been waiting for the Forbidden Art of Spirit Fusion to wear off, which finally dissipated entirely three days ago.

Then, after several more days, his mana had recovered to its peak state.

Lu Li gently leaped up, mounting the tunneling light and swiftly flew towards the Moon Dragon Pond.

The journey was very peaceful, many cultivators seeing his tunneling light from afar chose to avoid him.

In this manner, after traveling for a few days, he finally arrived near Moon Dragon Pond.

Looking down, he saw a vast expanse of swampland stretching over a hundred li.

The ground was covered with luxuriant aquatic grasses and teeming with birds and beasts, filled with a vibrant sense of life.

In the center of the swamp, there was a flat area spanning several li, with a structure resembling an altar standing tall, surrounded by eight Jade Pillars, each inscribed with mysterious Runes.

To the northeast, a narrow pathway pierced through the surrounding restrictions, leading straight towards the altar.

At that moment, a few cultivators were passing through the pathway, slowly heading toward the altar at the edge of Moon Dragon Pond.

Oddly, every time only one cultivator passed through while a large group of cultivators calmly waited behind.

At the end of the pathway, there were two cultivators collecting Spirit Stones, each passing cultivator producing Spirit Stones with a face full of struggle and handing them over.

“How interesting, to think that someone dares to collect a toll here.”

Lu Li flew towards the ground, arriving at the edge of a marshland.

A group of cultivators had clearly noticed his arrival, all of them looking on with wariness.

Every cultivator present was on guard against each other.

Lu Li didn’t care, standing behind the others, preparing to queue up to enter the passage.

As time slowly passed, soon it was Lu Li’s turn.

He walked slowly towards the passage, a narrow path leading straight into the distance, surrounded by spiritual luminance that fluctuated, clearly filled with prohibitions.

“It seems the person inside took advantage of this, that’s why they are so unscrupulous.”

Not much later, Lu Li arrived at the end of the passage.

“The toll is a thousand spirit stones per person.”

At this moment, a black-robed elder spoke indifferently, his cultivation around the peak of Qi Refinement.

“That expensive?”

Lu Li felt cold inside, this person had quite the appetite.

“Humph, this is the rule set by our Purple Mansion Zhao Family’s direct lineage. If you don’t have spirit stones, get lost, you pauper…”

The black-robed elder looked at Lu Li coldly, his face full of disdain.

Lu Li said nothing, having already sentenced his opponent to death in his heart.

But right now, making a move and triggering the prohibitions could lead to unpredictable consequences. Thinking of this, he directly took out the spirit stones and handed them over.

The black-robed elder took the spirit stones, retreated with a sneer on his face.

“Don’t stay too long, just go directly onto the high platform.”

Lu Li passed straight through the passage, arriving in front of the altar on a flat ground, took out his flying sword, and slashed at the black-robed elder.

The intense Sword Qi swirled in the air, striking with lightning speed directly at the elder’s face.

In just an instant, it was in front of the elder, carrying a powerful aura of murder.

“Seeking death!”

The black-robed elder, face full of rage, quickly summoned a defensive magical artifact that he put in front of him.

A middle-aged elder nearby also directly summoned his flying sword to attack Lu Li.

At this moment, not far from the black-robed elder, a young man dressed in white saw the commotion and slowly opened his eyes, his expression icy as he watched Lu Li.

Where the young man was seated, a strong spiritual pressure radiated.

“Wouldn’t have thought there’d be people daring to defy the rules set by me, Zhao Wuji?”

The group of cultivators in front of the passage were shocked by this sudden change, all with faces full of surprise.

People had long been dissatisfied with the Zhao Family, and seeing someone taking the lead, they all watched with relish.

“Bang, bang…”

In just a blink, the flying sword slashed on the defense shield, causing it to waver, and its spiritual light dimmed to the extreme.

Then the flying sword swiftly chopped toward the elder’s head.

“What!”

The black-robed elder was shocked, with the mana backlash from the magical artifact too overwhelming for him to react, he could only watch helplessly as the flying sword approached.

“Ah…”

A miserable scream rang out, the elder’s head instantly turned into a mess of fragments, and blood splattered everywhere.

This all happened in the blink of an eye, and before people could react, the elder was slain on the spot.

They all looked at Lu Li, the one who had made the move, in utter shock.

“This man is a top cultivator on par with Zhao Wuji!”

Zhao Wuji, not far away, watched this scene with a murderous look.

“Some skills, but the brains don’t match. This will be your burial place.”

After slaying the elder, Lu Li didn’t pause, his flying sword turned again, and under the fusion of sword light, a huge sword glow flickered in the void.

In an instant, it slashed towards the flying sword that was coming at him.

“Boom…”

Upon contact, the middle-aged man’s flying sword was immediately struck down. Then, imbued with the relentless momentum of Aminokaze, it struck at the middle-aged man.

“Master save me!”

The middle-aged man yelled in despair.

“Stop immediately, kneel down and let this young master set a forbidden technique on you, and your life will be spared!”

Zhao Wuji looked at Lu Li with a somber face, not expecting someone to be so audacious.
