190: Life is full of backstabs!
The Grand True Person Seven Souls's brows twitched wildly.
The Heart Demon also fell silent.
The Lou Lan Remnant across from them also had a grave expression on his face.
Although he was a Half-Step Dao Foundation, facing two people with such strange methods, he dared not act rashly.
Such people would surely have unexpected methods!
And the most tragic of them all... was undoubtedly Feng Ping, a Loose Cultivator who had stumbled into a high-end game.
Feng Ping was currently in a very awkward position... It seemed his Senior had played too big.
The Lou Lan Remnant's idea was to use the yin five spirit pearls to achieve Dao Foundation. Although these yin five spirit pearls were not as good as the true five spirit pearls, the Five Elements were mutually beneficial, and they would certainly give birth to a High Grade or even Peerless Grade Divine Ability.
This would allow him to gain an advantage in the Dao Foundation Realm, which was very important for the Lou Lan Remnant's plan to restore his kingdom.
That Divine Ability would be the first cornerstone to pry open the door to his kingdom's restoration, enough to allow him to sweep aside his peers in the Dao Foundation Realm, and even contend with the direct descendants of ancient Immortal Sects.
And for the Grand True Person Seven Souls and the Heart Demon, the yin five spirit pearls were equally important.
Seven Souls wanted to take revenge on the Yin Nether Sect and reclaim his Divine Soul, so he had to make himself stronger, even stronger than he was before he died.
Seven Souls looked at the Five Elements spiritual light flickering within the spirit pearl, his remnant soul trembling slightly.
He wanted to take revenge on the Yin Nether Sect and reclaim his Divine Soul, so he had to make himself stronger, even stronger than he was before he died.
The waters of the Yin Nether Sect ran deep. Even as an Elder back then, he couldn't touch the core. Even now, with the Yin Nether Sect being reviled by everyone, there were still some old geezers who had lived for hundreds of years surviving in the world.
To deal with these old schemers, without trump cards, it was tantamount to seeking death.
And the five spirit pearls, a Peerless Grade Dao Foundation... were absolutely indispensable!
The same was true for the Heart Demon...
On the contrary, Feng Ping... this Loose Cultivator who had stumbled into a high-end game, had the purest thoughts. What he initially thought was simply to use a spirit pearl to forge a Dao Foundation.
Then, he would attach himself to Qingchi Mountain or an Immortal Sect and enjoy life.
It's just that now... he had no choice but to go all in.
He knew his Senior's methods. If he were to disobey... he estimated that his Senior would likely crush his Divine Soul and fight to the end.
The Grand True Person Seven Souls took a deep breath and asked the Heart Demon in a low voice.
"This is tough! This Lou Lan Remnant has a special cursed body from the Loulan Ancient Kingdom. A direct confrontation might not go well."
The Heart Demon's eyes flickered, and he didn't even wait for Seven Souls to speak!
He tapped his toe in the Void Realm, his figure transforming into an afterimage, and charged forward with the Wu Xie Law Sword in hand.
The fierce Evil Qi on the sword body surged three feet, accompanied by a biting wind-breaking sound, and the Evil Qi on his face almost solidified.
Tough to deal with? Let's hack a few times and see if it's tough to deal with!
This made the Grand True Person Seven Souls's heart pound.
"Is this kid always so brave?"
The Heart Demon's figure suddenly approached. When he was only ten zhang away from the Lou Lan Remnant, the obscure runes on the opponent's body began to emit a faint blue light.
Those runes seemed to come alive, flowing and moving across his bronze skin, outlining ancient and mysterious patterns. A primal force quietly formed, as if it could swallow the surrounding light, making the air viscous.
Then, streaks of dark red resentful blood were stimulated from the Lou Lan Remnant's pores, circling once in the air, and instantly condensing into a blood shield about half a foot thick on his fist.
The surface of the blood shield was covered with dense blood threads, and the wailing of ghosts could be faintly heard, clearly refined from countless resentful souls.
He calmly smashed towards the Heart Demon. Before his fist arrived, the force of his punch, like a heavy hammer, had already slammed into the Heart Demon's chest!
The power of a Half-Step Dao Foundation burst forth instantly! Suppressing the surrounding hundreds of meters, making it hard to breathe!
With the two as the center, a visible Qi wave spread out in a ring. Trees within a hundred meters were instantly snapped in half, and rocks shattered.
"Clang!"
The Wu Xie Law Sword wailed, as if unable to bear the burden. The Heart Demon, uncharacteristically, felt a sharp pain in his tiger's mouth, and the Law Sword involuntarily flew out of his hand!
His body was struck hard, flying backward like a kite with a broken string, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood in the air, smashing through dozens of houses and buildings, and sending countless lone souls and wild ghosts fleeing!
Getting up, a hint of surprise and uncertainty appeared in the Heart Demon's indifferent eyes.
The Grand True Person Seven Souls, on the other hand, stood in the distance, his brows tightly furrowed, his eyes filled with a hint of scrutiny, not speaking.
He was pondering the origin of that strange spell. That defense formed by resentful blood was neither Demonic Path nor Righteous Path, exuding a wild and barbaric aura.
The Heart Demon gestured with his hand, and the Wu Xie Law Sword seemed to be pulled, returning to his hand again.
He charged forward!
This time, he closed in within three feet of this small mountain-like strong man!
But then, the Lou Lan Remnant leaned down to look at the Heart Demon, the shadow cast by his massive body completely enveloping the Heart Demon, his face still utterly indifferent:
"Fellow Daoist... you are too attached to appearances."
Before he finished speaking, he didn't waste any more words. He clenched his right fist, and the blood shield on his fist condensed again, thicker than before, and smashed out again with a sound of tearing through the air!
The Heart Demon held his sword horizontally to block, but saw that the opponent's fist did not directly collide with the sword body, but rather grazed past the blade.
A strange force transmitted along the sword body, as if invisible threads were wrapped around the sword hilt, pulling it sharply outward!
At this moment, the Grand True Person Seven Souls seemed to have thought of something, and said in a deep voice.
"Disarming minor spell?"
"Isn't this a minor spell of the Cloud Sea Sword Sect? How did it appear here?"
"Truly some ignoble wretches... too many schemes involved!"
Above the immortal palace, seeing such a situation, Shen Qian's gaze suddenly turned to Flying Radiance, his tone somewhat cold.
"Fellow Daoist, Yellow Sand Plains belongs to my Qingchi Mountain. Such a rash intervention, you have broken the rules."
The Disarming minor spell was a strange minor spell of the Cloud Sea Sword Sect. This spell was difficult to cultivate in the Qi Refining Realm, and one could only come into contact with it at least at the Half-Step Dao Foundation Realm.
Moreover, this spell had a limited number of slots, and it could not be taught to or comprehended by anyone who was not extremely important.
He never expected that the Cloud Sea Sword Sect would not only transmit this spell externally, but also transmit it to the Lou Lan Remnant!
It was truly inconceivable!
This was not important. What was important was that someone had brazenly invaded Yellow Sand Plains and set up numerous schemes. This was a provocation to the host, Qingchi Mountain.
However, the Great True Person Flying Radiance smiled slightly, as if spitting out the bitter fruit from before, and said triumphantly:
"My Cloud Sea Sword Sect merely encountered a talent in Yellow Sand Plains during our travels and couldn't bear to let him remain obscure, so we imparted some wonderful methods. Isn't that normal?"
However, Princess Li Long looked at the Mirror Flower Water Moon with a thoughtful expression.
The Great True Person Flying Radiance's smile was arrogant.
And Shen Qian also paused slightly in his heart.
In the battlefield.
Seven Souls and the Heart Demon stood side by side.
Seven Souls, however, sighed long and hard.
"We can't win."
The Heart Demon nodded, which was rare. The gap between Half-Step Dao Foundation and Qi Refining Perfection was simply too great.
If they were outside, with an Extreme Martial Warrior providing support, the solution would be simple.
But in this place, fighting alone as Cultivators was too difficult.
And then... a strange meaning surged in both their hearts.
However, the Grand True Person Seven Souls's tone changed.
"However, now that the Yunhai True Inheritor has been killed, our transaction is considered complete, right?"
The Heart Demon nodded.
"It's complete."
The Heart Demon took out the human skin scroll, which he had kept separately in his crotch, and handed it to Seven Souls.
Seven Souls took it, nodded, and then said with a strange expression.
"Currently, there is still one solution."
The Heart Demon said.
"I also have a solution."
The next second....
The two who were originally fighting side by side suddenly attacked each other....
Life in this world is nothing but two words... backstabbing!
