Dragon Devouring Cultivation

Chapter 249 Du Jie
Master Du Jie has been staying near Lanling County. In addition to coordinating with several sects, he is also investigating the theft in Caiqi Pavilion.

One day he heard about Master Gu's whereabouts and prepared to go visit him.

Although Master Gu’s Shifang Valley has been destroyed, Master Gu is still the leader of a sect and his influence remains.

No one can say for sure whether Master Gu will rebuild Shifang Valley after he recovers his strength.

Anyway, as long as Master Gu is still alive, there is hope for the reconstruction of Shifang Valley.

Master Du Jie was flying when he suddenly sensed the breath of a heavenly calamity.

The area where the heavenly tribulation occurred was in the wilderness and did not belong to the territory of any force. There was only one possibility for this situation, that this was a cultivator without any background who was undergoing the tribulation.

So he sped up, wanting to get a share of the benefits from the tribulation.

Master Du Jie slowed down as he approached the place of heavenly tribulation.

He felt a sharp murderous intent locking onto him, and if he got any closer, he would be met with a fierce attack.

At this moment, he also saw several Jindan Zhenren standing next to Tianjie, most of whom were acquaintances.

"You are Li Zhen!" Master Du Jie had no time to pay attention to other Jindan masters, but looked at Li Zhen in disbelief.

Of course he knew Li Zhen. Li Zhen had escaped from him, and he remembered Li Zhen's breath.

In addition, he also got Li Zhen's portrait from Caiqi Pavilion, so it was impossible for him to recognize the wrong person.

At the same time, he also saw Li Da who was undergoing a tribulation, and he couldn't hide the horror in his eyes.

He almost killed Li Da at the beginning. Li Da escaped with serious injuries. He even let Li Da escape on purpose because he wanted Li Da to lure out Li Zhen.

I didn't expect to meet Li Da here, but Li Da has successfully advanced to the Golden Core realm at this moment, and he is only one step away from thunder tribulation to become a true Golden Core True Person.

At this moment, Master Du Jie's eyes were full of murderous intent. He would never allow Li Da to be successfully promoted. At the same time, he also wanted to kill Li Zhen together.

However, from the feeling of being locked by Li Zhen's sword intent just now, he knew that Li Zhen's strength was probably not weak, and it would not be easy for him to defeat Li Zhen easily.

So he chose to destroy Li Da's promotion first, and then consider killing Li Zhen.

But before that, Master Du Jie took a quick look and discovered the confrontation between Li Zhen and Master Qiang Zhongjie.

In particular, there was a corpse on the ground. Judging from the remaining aura on the corpse, this was a Jindan Zhenren.

Now Master Du Jie thought of a solution. There was a conflict between Li Zhen and Master Qiang Zhongjie, and a Jindan Master died. This showed that there was no possibility of easing the hatred between the two sides.

In this situation, he joined the side of Master Qiang Zhongjie. No matter how powerful Li Zhen was, he would not be a match for the combined forces of several people.

Thinking of this, Master Du Jie did not provoke Li Zhen immediately and attack Li Da who was undergoing the tribulation. Instead, he turned around, bypassed Li Zhen's attack range and came to Master Qiang Zhongjie.

"Greetings to City Lord Qiang, Master Gu, and this master!" Master Du Jie took the initiative to salute Master Qiang Zhongjie and the other two.

"Master Du, you've come at the right time. Do you have any grudge against Li Zhen?" Master Qiang Zhongjie asked while returning the greeting with a smile.

The reason why he asked this was because he saw the murderous intent that Master Du Jie had just exuded.

For the Jindan Zhenren present, Zhenren Du Jie's obvious murderous intent also represented Zhenren Du Jie's attitude.

Only Master Qiang Zhongjie would ask directly. He didn't want to waste too much time. Mainly because if he delayed any further, Li Da's tribulation would be over.

"Yes, I have been tracking Li Zhen for many days. Seeing that you also have conflicts with Li Zhen, why don't you join forces!" Master Du Jie nodded in acknowledgement and invited.

"He killed my people with exactly this intention!" Master Qiang Zhongjie agreed.

Li Zhen quietly watched the conversation between Master Qiang Zhongjie and Master Du Jie. It was just what he wanted that they took the initiative. On the contrary, if they did not join forces, he would show his strength and might scare away the remaining Jindan masters.

Master Qiang Zhongjie, Master Du Jie, and another Jindan early stage master approached Li Zhen. Master Gu did not intervene, and he did not have the energy to do anything. Master Du Jie's cultivation was not as good as Master Qiang Zhongjie's, but Master Qiang Zhongjie attached great importance to him because he was born in the Caiqi Pavilion, which was equivalent to the sect's Jindan. The skills he learned and the magic weapons he used were not comparable to that of the Jindan early stage master.

Zhenren Qiang Zhongjie regarded Zhenren Du Jie as a Jindan Zhenren with similar combat power. That was why he had the confidence to deal with Li Zhen.

"Be careful with his flying sword. He is a thunder cultivator and his thunder magic is extremely powerful!" Master Qiang Zhongjie reminded while preparing for battle.

Master Du Jie was stunned. He, who had originally looked down on the other party due to their collaboration, immediately changed his fighting style.

He added multiple layers of defense to himself, and then took out a talisman and slapped it on his body. This talisman was to enhance the resistance to thunder magic.

"Take action!" Master Qiang Zhongjie and the other two entered the battle range, and Master Qiang shouted softly.

Zhenren Qiang Zhongjie shot out his flying sword, followed by Zhenren Du Jie's flying sword. Another Zhenren in the early Jindan stage also attacked with his flying sword, but his flying sword was the slowest.

In the battle of Jindan Zhenren, talismans are rarely used. The value of third-level talismans is too high. Generally, they are only used to delay enemy attacks in dangerous times and will not be wasted in ordinary battles.

The flying sword is the most commonly used magic weapon. Most of the Jindan Zhenren choose the flying sword. Unless they practice special skills, they will use other types of magic weapons according to the requirements of the skills.

Li Zhen seemed to be frightened by the attack of the three Jindan Zhenren. He did not take any precautions and allowed the three flying swords to fly towards him.

Master Du Jie was overjoyed. He could not help but increase his mental control over the flying sword magic weapon, making it even more powerful.

On the contrary, Master Qiang Zhongjie felt something was wrong. He didn't believe that Li Zhen, who had performed so well before, would be frightened by the combined efforts of three Jindan masters.

As he hesitated, the flying sword magic weapon slowed down along with his thoughts and fell to the end of the three flying sword magic weapons.

Just as Master Du Jie's flying sword was about to chop Li Zhen, a terrifying and powerful aura surged out of Li Zhen.

Li Zhen stretched out his bare palm and grabbed the flying sword magic weapon.

The sharp sword light on the flying sword magic weapon flashed repeatedly, trying to break Li Zhen's palm.

But it was suppressed by his palm in just an instant, the light of the flying sword magic weapon dimmed, and Master Du Jie spat out a mouthful of blood.

The flying sword magic weapon was his natal magic weapon. After Li Zhen grabbed it, he forcibly expelled the spiritual imprint of recognition of the master inside, which was equivalent to a heavy blow to Master Du Jie's soul.

Of course, there is still the spiritual imprint of Master Du Jie remaining in the flying sword magic weapon, which cannot be removed in a short time. But even if he takes back the flying sword magic weapon now, he cannot use it again without a very long time to refine it again.

Li Zhen's actions did not end there. His other hand grabbed the flying sword magic weapon of the Jindan early stage real person and forcibly expelled the spiritual mark of recognition of the master.

Master Qiang Zhongjie's flying sword magic weapon had time to change direction, but Li Zhen used the "Lightning Film Technique", and his figure turned into a flash of lightning and caught up with the flying sword magic weapon, and then the flying sword magic weapon fell into Li Zhen's hands.

The three flying sword magic weapons stayed in Li Zhen's palm like three toys.

Opposite him, the three Jindan Zhenren were already pale as ashes.

It was not until now that they realized what kind of opponent they were facing. He was in the late third stage of body refining, which was equivalent to a terrifying existence in the late golden elixir stage.

They actually took the initiative to provoke such a strong man. Thinking of this, their only thought was to escape.

But when they took the initiative to approach the battle range, they were spotted by Li Zhen. Why didn't Li Zhen attack immediately, but waited for them to attack, because he wanted to keep them all behind?

The 'Thunder Movie Technique' allowed Li Zhen to have super-fast speed over short distances. This lightning escape technique combined with his third-level late stage body refining cultivation formed the most terrifying combat power.

His target is Master Du Jie, who is his enemy. If Master Du Jie does not come to him on his own initiative, he will find time to take revenge on Master Du Jie.

Master Du Jie felt something was wrong. Because he wanted to attack Li Zhen, he had entered the range of Li Zhen's spiritual thoughts. He felt that he was locked by Li Zhen.

Under the powerful spirit of Jindan Zhenren, the induction of this kind of Qi was extremely sensitive. He was sure that Li Zhen wanted to deal with him first.
