The Primordial Law

Chapter 228 You are a Successor Level

Luan Shenglin's figure flickered and disappeared from the rooftop, heading straight for Long Zhexian, the number one expert in the Eastern Realm.

"Hua Yuzi's silver mask is of a high grade, a seventh-grade magic artifact with a hundred-character scripture?" Li Weiyi said.

"It must have broken through more than ten formations in one strike!"

Qi Xiao nodded: "Hua Yuzi has an extremely powerful background. He possesses the bloodline of an ancient immortal beast and has exceptional talent. The powerful elders behind him will definitely give him some good things for self-defense."

On the night of the seventh day, Li Weiyi and Yang Qingxi originally planned to kill Hua Yuzi as their first move.

The most dangerous first move was blocked by Hua Yuzi using her silver mask.

Fortunately, he was never given a chance to activate the Silver Mask.

Of course, even if Hua Yuzi activated it, it wouldn't be too overpowered. That attack just now was only possible because more than two hundred martial artists at the Fifth Sea Realm activated it together, allowing the power of the seventh-grade hundred-character scripture magic weapon to be fully displayed.

Even a martial artist at the Dao Seed Realm would have to retreat at the sight of this attack.

Zuoqiu Ting transmitted his voice through the darkness beneath the city wall: "Send a signal to Zhu Yibai and the others to attack the headquarters of the Far West Ash Region. I want to see whether Luan Shenglinyou will continue to deal with Longmen or return to the West City."

Li Weiyi finally understood Zuo Qiuting's playing style!
Tonight's battle is of paramount importance; Zuoqiu Ting is treating it like a decisive battle.

When Luan Shenglin broke through Longmen, Zuoqiu Menting attacked the headquarters of the Far West Ash Region.

With Ge Xiantong having breached the Leixiao Sect, another force from the Zuoqiu Sect will undoubtedly attack the Governor's Mansion.

In this way, even if the Dragon Gate and Thunder Cloud Sect are eliminated, the strength of the strongest western Ash Region and the imperial court will inevitably be halved.

Only by achieving this can Zuoqiu Menting become the biggest winner over the next three days.

Can't do it...

The next three days will be extremely difficult.

The outcome depends on tonight.

Zuoqiu Menting possesses the most accurate intelligence network, thus avoiding strategic misjudgments. The distribution of the enemy's strength is completely transparent to them.

"Dragon Palace is no match for Luan Sheng Lin You, he cannot die."

Zuoqiu Ting flew away, leaped off the city wall, and disappeared into the night in an instant.

Li Weiyi asked, "Are Zuoqiu Ting and Zuoqiu Hong only going to save Longdian and Lu Cangsheng tonight?"

Qi Xiao nodded: "Once everyone's headquarters and strongholds have been breached, the final outcome will depend on the duel between the top experts. Only by bringing the Dragon Palace and Lu Cangsheng under our command can the Zuoqiu Clan have a chance of winning."

Li Weiyi said, "Promise them a certain amount of Longevity Pills, Dragon Souls, and Dragon Bones?"

“That’s right! In terms of keeping promises, the other three families are no match for Zuoqiu Menting.”

Qi Xiao opened the invitation to the top three again, and inside was a dragon bone ticket: "Twenty longevity pill tickets, more than half of them will gather in the East City tonight."

“Ge Xiantong three, Luan Shenglin four, Tang Wanqiu four, Long Dian two, Lu Cangsheng one…”

Li Weiyi asked, "Where is Xuejian Tangting located?"

Qi Xiao pointed to a spot near the edge of the map inside the invitation: "The Snow Sword Tang Court is guarding the outer city wall, probably to prevent martial artists from the Dragon Gate and Thunder Cloud Sect from escaping Qiuzhou City with the invitation. In the end, the strength of the Snow Sword Tang Court is still quite different from that of the Far West Ash Region and the imperial court."

Shi Shishi pulled out his second-class invitation and sighed, "Brother Weiyi, our invitations are completely blank, like scraps of paper."

"Can't wait?" Li Weiyi said with a smile.

Shi Shi said, "We need to get at least one Dragon Bone Ticket tonight, so we can lock down the location of all the tickets in the city."

"Wow!"

A bright white light rose from the direction of the Longmen stronghold.

A jade boat inscribed with a hundred characters of scripture took off, enveloped in white clouds of magical energy, and rushed straight out of the city, instantly flying over the heads of Li Weiyi and his two companions.

Below the jade boat, the experts from the far western Ash Region, each displaying their unique skills, chased after the ship on the ground.

The three immediately jumped off the city wall and hid.

Qi Xiao opened the invitation: "On the jade boat, there are five Dragon Seed Tickets and six Dragon Bone Tickets. On the ground, the martial artists from the far western Ash Region who are pursuing us... The Dragon Seed Tickets and Dragon Bone Tickets together exceed twenty."

“There are so many experts! First-class, second-class, third-class, and second-class—none of them are weak, yet they appear in large numbers,” Shi Shishi said.

Li Weiyi said, "It's a rare opportunity to take advantage of the chaos, so tonight I'll help you get the Dragon Bone Ticket and Dragon Seed Ticket."

Qi Xiao immediately patted his chest and promised: "If you can help me obtain a Dragon Seed Ticket, it will be like having given me a second life. From now on, if either of you asks for my help, I will go through fire and water to meet you."

On the outer city wall, six Seventh Sea Martial Cultivators from Xuejian Tangting joined forces to unleash a giant sword, slicing down the Dragon Gate's magical artifact, the Jade Boat.

Standing atop the city wall, Tang Wanqiu clasped his hands in a fist salute and smiled, saying loudly, "Five Dragon Seed tickets and six Dragon Bone tickets. If you all stay, Wanqiu will let you pass immediately. Dragon Gate has been defeated; there's no need to fight to the death anymore. We are all righteous soldiers; the imperial court is our common enemy."

Seeing that they could not escape the city, the dozens of Dragon Gate experts on the magical jade boat immediately scattered and fled in all directions.

Tang Wanqiu's face darkened, and she said, "Chase them!"

Li Weiyi had taken in the entire battle tonight, but something felt off, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it. So, he shared this feeling with Qi Xiao and Shi Shishi.

Shi Shi said, "Don't think too much about it. The whole city is fighting tonight, with various forces vying for power and their relationships are very complicated. Not to mention us, even the leaders of the major forces who are racking their brains for tonight's battle can only take it one step at a time. There should only be a clear result after the battle is over."

"what……"

A low, agonizing scream echoed down the street near the three people.

Li Weiyi stood in the shadows under the eaves, holding her breath, and looked out onto the wide street.

I saw.

Yuwen Tuozhen, the young master of Night City, was riding the Night Scale Beast, chasing after a martial artist from the Dragon Gate. The two were pursuing and fleeing, both using long spears as their magical weapons. Every time their spears clashed, large ripples of energy spread outwards, causing the snow on the streets and rooftops to fly into the air.

The buildings on both sides of the street were shrouded in a veil of array light, flickering between light and shadow as they battled.

That martial arts practitioner from the Dragon Gate was seriously injured, with a bloody hole in his chest.

"It is Yuwen Tuozhen, the fifth in the second class of the Southern Territory, and Long Jingsong, the fourth in the third class of the Eastern Territory."

Qi Xiao looked at the invitation in his hand, his eyes gleaming with eagerness: "One Dragon Seed Ticket and two Dragon Bone Tickets. What a great opportunity!"

"Pfft!"

Yuwen Tuozhen flew off the back of the Night Scale Beast, his blood flowing like a dragon's roar. The magic weapon spear in his hand, which was tainted by the Night Emperor Toad Poison, was as fast as lightning and pierced through Long Jingsong's neck.

"The top three in the Eastern Territory are nothing special; if they were placed in the Southern Territory, they would only be classified as second-tier."

Yuwen Tuozhen scoffed and squatted down, rummaging through the corpse. He had just obtained Long Jingsong's invitation when his expression suddenly changed. His internal energy transformed into a wave of energy, surging wildly behind him.

Qi Xiao, wielding a broad-backed battle sword, flew above Yuwen Tuo's true form and unleashed a bright blade of light several meters long.

The burst of magical energy released by Yuwen Tuozhen was shattered by the blade's edge.

"Oh!"

He thrust out his long spear.

Because he was caught off guard, Yuwen Tuozhen was forced back several steps. Upon seeing who it was, he immediately shouted coldly, "Qi Xiao, are you risking your life for the Dragon Seed Ticket?"

"Who isn't risking their life for the Dragon Seed Ticket?"

As Qi Xiao unleashed his second strike, a battle intent five zhang tall appeared behind him.

Both of them possessed pure immortal bodies at the Great Perfection of the Five Seas Realm, but one was ranked second-class in the Southern Realm, while the other was ranked third-class in the Southern Realm.

In the blink of an eye, they had already exchanged dozens of blows.

Seizing the opportunity, Shi Shishi emerged from the ground behind Yuwen Tuozhen and punched him in the back.

Once a successful strike is landed, retreat immediately.

Yuwen Tuozhen withstood Shi Shishi's punch and Qi Xiao's knife, then quickly fled to the right, landing on the roof. A trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth as he gritted his teeth and cautiously looked around.

Shi Shishi was already waiting on the rooftop, blocking his way, and said with a smile, "Young City Lord, are you confident in fighting two against one?"

Yuwen Tuozhen forcefully suppressed his injuries, and the crescent mark between his eyebrows lit up, revealing the intent of a different kind of battle technique.

It was a dazzling crescent moon, five zhang long, suspended behind him and above his head, with magical energy and mist flowing around it, making it infinitely wondrous.

He snorted, "Shi Shishi, you just broke through to the seventh sea realm, right? You and Qi Xiao joined forces, thinking you could stop me?"

Yuwen Tuozhen let out a loud whistle, and the Night Scale Beast in the distance roared, immediately spreading its broad wings and flying towards the rooftop.

On the street, Li Weiyi carefully examined Long Jingsong's corpse, then picked up the Dragon Scale Spear from the ground and threw it.

"Pfft!"

The Dragon Scale Spear pierced through the abdomen of the Night Scale Beast, passing right through its body and flying into the night sky.

Blood splattered, and cries of agony filled the air.

Li Weiyi, carrying the Yellow Dragon Sword and wearing a brand-new Taoist robe, looked up at the rooftop and asked, "I've been here for so long, how come the young city lord didn't notice me?"

Qi Xiao drew his sword and blocked Yuwen Tuozhen's path from another direction, laughing loudly: "Are you still confident against three opponents?"

Yuwen Tuozhen recognized Li Weiyi as a martial artist at the fifth level of the Five Seas Realm, but his fear of him was even greater than that of Qi Xiao and Shi Shishi.

He said coldly, "You've finally shown yourself! Tonight in Dongcheng, there are more people who want to kill you than you can count on two hands."

"Guess why I dared to show myself?"

Li Weiyi used the Qingxu Chachan Step, stepping on green smoke, his body turning into countless afterimages, walking in an arc, and instantly appearing in front of Yuwen Tuozhen from the street.

He raised his sword, and the divine image of his battle intent manifested, illuminating all directions.

So fast!

Yuwen Tuozhen was greatly alarmed. He mobilized all his internal energy and thrust out a long spear, a first-grade magic weapon containing a hundred-character scripture.

One hundred and twenty-seven white scriptures appeared on the shaft of the spear, flowing rapidly like a waterfall rushing towards the spearhead.

"boom!"

"Bang bang!"

……

Swords and spears clashed, the sound of metal hitting metal echoing continuously.

After more than ten exchanges, all the white scriptures exploded and scattered.

Yuwen Tuozhen felt an overwhelming force coming from the long spear. His internal injuries could no longer be suppressed, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, falling from the roof.

"You are... a successor-level..."

If he hadn't fought Li Weiyi in person, Yuwen Tuozhen would never have believed that Li Weiyi had grown to such a level. No wonder he dared to participate in tonight's chaotic battle without any scruples.

Every inheritor at the Qianlong Lantern Festival is a dragon crossing the river.
