Chapter 165 Golden Core Self-Destruction
"You...all...deserve to die!" Cao Wu's eyes widened with rage at the sight.

Before he could finish speaking, he was immediately surrounded by the two who had freed their hands, and the three of them engaged in a fierce battle, holding nothing back and going all out.

In the distance, air currents surged, emanating from the center of the battle and spreading in all directions, sounding like rolling thunder.

The terrifying spiritual power of the Golden Core expert erupted with dazzling light, even affecting the clouds high in the sky. In an instant, the wind and clouds changed rapidly, shifting and shifting unpredictably.

The airship swayed slightly.

The control room was deathly silent.

"This is the power of the Golden Core..." Even inside the flying boat, Chen Li still felt a sense of panic that came from his very soul.

The battle in the distance was still somewhat visible at the beginning.

But as the light became blinding and the battle intensified, he could only get a general idea of ​​what was happening.

"boom!"

One figure was instantly sent flying.

Chen Li looked closely.

Ok!

It wasn't their own sect leader, but Ao Xiong, the leader of the Red Mountain Sect. His figure crashed heavily into a flying boat, where he was blocked by a protective shield. Chen Li could vaguely see that the other party had already vomited blood.

However, Ao Xiong paid no attention and pounced on the battlefield again.

The two relentlessly attacked Cao Wu, brandishing their magical weapons and unleashing a barrage of secret techniques.

At first, Cao Wu managed to hold on against two opponents, but soon he began to be overwhelmed and gradually weakened, leaving him only with the option of desperately defending himself, and blood began to seep from his mouth and nose.

He had clearly suffered a serious injury.

"Don't be too happy yet. I will remember what happened today and will repay you handsomely in the future."

Cao Wu used a secret technique to suddenly unleash his spiritual power, forcing the two back. He then transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the mountain gate, intending to rely on the mountain-protecting formation to defend himself.

The two could not catch up with him.

It stopped in mid-air.

"There will be no future." Ao Xiong laughed maniacally, blood trickling from his lips, and shouted, "Red Mountain Sect members, heed my command: attack the southeast corner!"

He Zhao also shouted, "Realistic Sect members, listen to my command! Attack the formation from the northwest corner!"

A dozen or so enormous flying ships immediately began to move.

split into two.

They slowly approached the mountain gate.

Chen Lixin's heart tightened, and she took a deep breath.

“The Tianxing Sect has quite a few Foundation Establishment cultivators. When the formation breaks, avoid dispersing unless absolutely necessary and act in groups,” Xiao Yuan said solemnly.

“That’s how it should be!” Hu Buwei said hastily.

Chen Li and others also agreed.

Such sectarian battles are always dangerous, and the fact that the Golden Core cultivator is still alive only amplifies the danger several times over. Even a Foundation Establishment cultivator is not much safer than a Qi Refining cultivator on such a battlefield.

Money is good, but you have to be alive to get it.

"boom!"

The flying boat had only flown halfway when the protective array in front of it suddenly emitted thick beams of dark light.

The flying boat that Chen Li was on was struck by the ghostly light and shook violently!

He felt a chill run down his spine.

The protective array of the Heavenly Star Sect was clearly not a passive defensive structure; its attacks were extremely terrifying. Fortunately, the flying boat was also quite strong defensively, so it could hold out for a while.

Half a minute later.

The airship finally came to a stop.

The hatches were opened.

"Hurry up……"

Amid a series of urging voices, all the cultivators filed out.

Chen Li successively used the Golden Light Protection Technique, the Auspiciousness and Misfortune Avoidance Technique, and the Rainbow Transformation Technique, and flew out of the cabin with several Foundation Establishment cultivators to begin coordinating with the flying boat's attack.

In an instant, all sorts of spells and magical artifacts transformed into various colors of light, striking the protective shield of the Tianxing Sect's mountain-protecting array like a sudden storm, causing the shield to tremble violently.

At the same time, the protective array in the distance also continuously emitted beams of eerie light.

Many unfortunate cultivators were swallowed by the eerie light, as if they had been erased by an eraser. They couldn't even let out a scream, and their robes and magical artifacts disappeared without a trace. Among them were even Foundation Establishment cultivators.

The battlefield was a scene of utter carnage.

Life and death are truly determined by fate.

"boom!"

A spaceship was struck repeatedly by the eerie light. Its protective shield shattered, the entire hull was pierced, and it exploded continuously. Then it fell like a mountain, finally crashing violently into the earth and shattering into pieces.

All the cultivators desperately attacked the formation.

There was simply no way to hold back.

The longer it drags on, the more dangerous it becomes.

Chen Li took out a bottle of Qi Gathering Pills and swallowed five in a row to keep his spiritual energy abundant at all times.

Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat, a warning sign appeared, and he sensed danger in the shadows. Without thinking, he suddenly darted forward.

The next moment!
A ghostly light, radiating an aura of destruction, brushed past my side.

While Chen Li was still in shock, he suddenly smelled a strong stench of blood. Turning his head, he saw that Song Zhi, who was slacking off behind him, was missing half of his body. His chest and below were gone, and even one of his hands was missing.

His aged face was filled with astonishment.

Upon seeing Chen Li, he opened his mouth, but before he could speak, blood gushed from his mouth, and his body fell from mid-air.

Such injuries are beyond saving even for someone at the Foundation Establishment stage.

"Intensify the attack! The formation is about to break!" He Zhao shouted. The huge casualties made even him unable to remain calm. He took out a fireball-shaped magic weapon, which grew in the wind and, like a meteor, continuously bombarded the mountain-protecting formation.

The protective array began to falter, shaking continuously and growing increasingly dim.

They persisted for another half minute or so.

The protective array for the mountain finally vanished like a soap bubble.

"All members of the Huanzhen Sect, listen to my command! Kill!" He Zhao shouted, then transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the mountain gate.

The remaining cultivators also surged in.

However, perhaps because the Golden Core was still intact, the morale of the Heavenly Star Sect did not collapse at all. Countless cultivators were already on high alert, and thus an even more brutal battle began, with magical artifacts wielding in the sky.

A large number of cultivators were killed in mid-air and fell to the ground.

Chen Li, along with Xiao Yuan and several other Foundation Establishment cultivators, landed at the Tianxing Sect's mountain gate. As soon as they landed, a group of cultivators rushed over, with the leader being a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"Take care of that Foundation Establishment cultivator first, and finish this quickly!" Xiao Yuan shouted in a low voice. Everyone nodded in unison.

It's getting closer and closer.

"Do it!"

Without hesitation, everyone unleashed a variety of magical artifacts.

The Foundation Establishment cultivator was powerless to resist. His water elemental shield shattered instantly, and his body was cut into several pieces, resulting in a gruesome death.

Some of the remaining Qi Refining cultivators continued to charge, while others tried to escape.

Unfortunately, no matter which choice they made, they could not change their fate of death.

The flying swords weaved through the crowd at high speed, blood splattering everywhere. The six men slaughtered everyone without mercy, leaving behind more than a dozen corpses.

Xiao Yuan waved his hand, using his spiritual power to gather the storage bags from the corpse and the magical artifacts from the ground, stuffing them into his bundle: "Same as always, the spoils will be distributed when we get back."

Everyone nodded.

"Boom boom boom!"

Then another loud explosion came from afar, its sound as deafening as thunder.

Clearly, He Zhao and Ao Xiong intercepted Cao Wu again, continuing the battle that had not yet ended.

Before Chen Li and his companions could catch their breath, another wave of Tianxing Sect cultivators arrived.

"Kill those treacherous dogs from the True Sect there!"

"Let's give it our all!"

The killing continued.

Facing six Foundation Establishment cultivators, the outcome of the battle was a foregone conclusion.

One by one, lives were lost on the way.

The group walked on, leaving a trail of blood in their wake.

They would deal with any lone Tianxing Sect cultivators they encountered on the go.

The entire mountain gate was filled with carnage.

Either you die or I live.

Screams and curses rose and fell.

Even the air was filled with a faint reddish blood mist.

Chen Li and his group finally encountered a formidable enemy: a Foundation Establishment team of four who arrived at lightning speed. Without uttering a word, the enemy launched a deadly attack, with the leader of the Foundation Establishment team taking out a magical artifact from a treasure pavilion.

It was tossed into the air and, as it caught the wind, transformed into a massive treasure pavilion that enveloped the six people.

"not good!"

Chen Li and the others became alert and quickly moved to both sides. Only Huang Qin reacted a beat too slowly and was trapped under the treasure pavilion. For a moment, she felt as if she were stuck in a quagmire. The treasure pavilion crashed down and she was smashed into a pulp on the spot.

Of the seven Foundation Establishment cultivators who arrived, one is missing.

"Damn it, kill!" Xiao Yuan shouted, his killing intent palpable.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

The ritual implements danced in the air.

Chen Li finally drew his sword, no longer holding back, and deflected the magical artifact that was flying towards him with a single strike.

At the same time, he quickly used invisibility.

The figure disappears.

He took several steps in quick succession, covering a distance of forty or fifty meters in a flash.

Using his Zhou Tian Gang Jin, a sonic boom sword strike, imbued with indestructible qi, easily pierced through one of the men's defenses, leaving a bloody hole the size of an infant's fist on his forehead.

"boom!"

The invisibility technique has only just been broken.

The body is not yet fully revealed.

Chen Li flashed around and appeared behind one of the people.

With another thrust, the sword pierced the back of a Foundation Establishment cultivator's head and emerged from his forehead.

Chen Li's rapid thinking and superhuman sense of time made him like a ghostly assassin. The reactions of several Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Heavenly Star Sect, even those in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, seemed like slow motion to him.

At this moment, the remaining two Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Heavenly Star Sect finally reacted, their faces filled with fear, and they began to scatter and flee.

But at this point, there was no escape.

One of them was struck by a series of magical artifacts from Xiao Yuan and his companions.

That was the end of his life.

The remaining man was also caught up by Chen Li in a few steps and beheaded with a single sword strike.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, you..." Xiao Yuan stared in disbelief, looking at him as if he were seeing him for the first time, too shocked to speak.

Is this still the early stage of Foundation Establishment?
He's only been at the Foundation Establishment stage for five years?

In the blink of an eye, three-quarters of it was gone.

One of them was also in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, just like him.

By the way, how did he suddenly appear behind those people?
During the previous battle, he was completely focused and did not notice that Chen Li had used invisibility.

The others weren't much better off, staring in disbelief and dumbfounded.

"I have only achieved a minor level of mastery in body refinement, and I am relatively skilled in close combat techniques," Chen Li said.

"You're too modest, too modest. Fellow Daoist Chen, your achievement is far from minor. You're probably the number one body refiner in the entire True Realm Sect," Hu Buwei quickly said.

“Yes, yes!” Peng Yan echoed.

Wenhui, who had narrowly escaped death, was still shaken: "Thanks to my fellow Daoist, otherwise, more than one person would probably have died this time."

Chen Li was about to say a few words of modesty.

Just then, a frantic voice rang out across the sky.

"If I die, none of you will live either. Let's all die together."

"Oh no, the Heavenly Star Sect Master is about to self-destruct." Xiao Yuan looked at the distant sky with fear on his face.

Chen Li quickly looked in that direction as well.

Ao Xiong and He Zhao split up and fled at high speed, while Cao Wu ignored Ao Xiong and only chased after He Zhao.

Clearly, his hatred for He Zhao was greater than that for Ao Xiong.

A blinding burst of spiritual light erupted from Cao Wu's body, and his flesh and blood rapidly dissolved. Even just watching from afar, Chen Li felt a chill run down his spine!
If our sect leader is doomed...
