The Primordial Law

Chapter 429 Kill with one sword

Holding a serpent spear, the young marquis protected himself with the blood energy and crimson scriptures of the demonic armor bearing blood handprints. Like a streak of blood-red light, he charged straight across the snowfield toward the county town more than a hundred miles away.

He was in agony, his sister's headless corpse was in his bag, he gripped his spear tightly, and his eyes were filled with boundless killing intent.

However, they dared not linger for even a moment, their previous high spirits and confidence gone.

Although the opponent relied on powerful weapons, his mental warfare tactics were absolutely outstanding. More importantly, the person was very young and remained calm throughout, as if everything was under his control.

Behind me, a piercing whistling sound filled the air.

Getting closer.

"Wow!"

Li Weiyi traversed space, and a purple mist appeared above the young marquis's head.

Li Weiyi had just stepped out of the purple mist when a spear shot towards him like lightning. Those who could cultivate to the level of a young marquis were extremely adept at seizing opportunities, even in dire situations.

Offense and defense, escape and killing, must be changed in an instant.

Li Wei remained calm and composed, using his sword to defend and parry.

"Hey!"

The sword and the spear rubbed together, producing a shower of sparks and a piercing sound.

The immense force of the spear sent Li Weiyi flying six or seven zhang away. Upon landing, his footsteps sent snowflakes flying.

"Indeed, one must always be cautious and never underestimate any martial artist."

Li Weiyi had been wary of the distant county town with all his mental perception. He was under immense pressure from the giant of the Longevity Realm and had lowered his regard for the young marquis, which is why he was caught off guard.

The opponent's timing in adapting to changes in offense and defense was absolutely brilliant.

One chases the other.

Within a hundred miles of entering the county town, Li Weiyi stopped the young marquis, and the two clashed fiercely, spear to spear.

Li Wei's attention was mostly focused on the county town, and he dared not relax.

Seven phoenix-winged moth queens flew out, each unleashing their innate magical arts. In a short while, Li Weiyi seized the opportunity and cleaved the young marquis away with a spear. Even though the Blood Handprint Demon Armor mitigated part of the attack, he was still severely injured, blood flowing continuously from his mouth.

The seven Phoenix-Winged Moth Kings were at the fourth level of the Heavenly Realm, but each of them possessed combat power comparable to martial artists at the fifth or sixth level of the Heavenly Realm.

How could the young marquis possibly fight eight opponents alone?

Inside the county town, Marquis Shenyi had never been so furious. To be provoked by a martial artist at the Dao Seed Realm was an utter disgrace. He looked behind him and saw that the sacrificial ceremony was already more than halfway through.

Four blood-red wings, each ten feet long, spread out on its back.

With a flap of its four wings, magical energy and a powerful wind swept across the entire city.

"Swish!"

Dozens of foot-long, blood-red feathers, enveloped by the river of magical energy, flew towards the snowfield ninety miles away.

Each blood feather is far superior to ordinary magical artifacts, containing the essence of Bloodwing Marquis's blood. It can be controlled even from a great distance.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

He slashes horizontally across the waist and abdomen, thrusts forward towards the heart, and strikes the shoulder mid-air.

Li Weiyi's movements were fluid and graceful; with three consecutive spear thrusts, he completely pierced through the young marquis's defenses.

The young marquis suffered internal injuries, a broken shoulder bone, and bleeding from all seven orifices. He knelt on the ground, fainted, and then collapsed.

No kills were achieved.

Such a young prodigy, riding a Wind Chaser Beast, could not possibly have an ordinary background. Only by sparing his life can we lure out the powerful figures in the Longevity Realm within the city.

Li Weiyi sensed dozens of blood feathers entering the psychic field and dared not be careless. He fully activated the inner layer of the Blood Handprint Demon Armor and the outer layer of the Governor's Robe for defense.

Blood-red feathers flew down from above the emerald-yellow pine forest, creating a play of light and shadow of dozens of strange birds.

They attacked Li Weiyi from various different directions, meandering towards him.

"Bang! Bang..."

Li Weiyi wielded a sword in one hand and a spear in the other, his movements fluid and unpredictable, sometimes leaping into the air, sometimes teleporting through space, causing Xue Yu to explode repeatedly.

Before long, only a dozen or so remained.

It was drawn back by the will of the immortal realm giant in the city and disappeared into the horizon.

"At this distance, you still can't do anything to me. Stop spreading your feathers, or your wings will become bald."

Li Weiyi shouted again, trying every possible means to provoke the giant of the Longevity Realm and lure him out of the city.

A showdown between the giants of the city and the immortal realm?

Li Wei had absolutely no confidence.

Seeing no response, Li Weiyi walked towards the young marquis, took his serpent spear, and removed his Blood Handprint Demon Armor. He then took his boundary bag, threw Luo Yi's corpse out of it, and removed the Blood Handprint Demon Armor from her body.

The three spears, each with a seven-character inscription, were all in the bag.

Suddenly.

Li Weiyi's eyes sharpened as he detected a terrifying aura approaching the edge of his psychic perception, arriving at an unparalleled speed.

At their speed, they will arrive in a few breaths.

Has this really escalated to the point of provocation?
Are even the giants of the Longevity Realm so impatient?
Li Weiyi put away the Staff of All Things and the Spear, affixed the Lightning Escape Talisman given to him by Taishi Yu to his body, held the Yellow Dragon Sword in one hand and used the young marquis as a shield in the other.

"Boom!"

With a thunderous roar, Li Weiyi's body transformed into a bolt of lightning and vanished from the spot.

Just as he left, a Qi Trace Dao Technique passed right by the spot where he had just stood.

Marquis Shenyi was genuinely enraged, but the fundamental reason he recklessly stormed out of the county town was that he had discovered Li Weiyi was carrying an extraordinary treasure. Secondly, it was to rescue his beloved son, and only lastly, it was out of anger.

With the aid of the lightning escape talisman, Li Weiyi's speed for a short time rivaled that of a newly ascended Longevity Realm expert. He knew perfectly well that with such speed, it was impossible to escape from Divine Wing Marquis. The next few dozen breaths would be an unprecedented challenge.

The Yellow Dragon Sword in his hand has a divine sword talisman forged by the Grand Historian, which can slay giants in the Longevity Realm.

On his back was the Thousand Character Artifact Cloak given to him by Tang Wanzhou, containing the full force of the Dragon-Headed Camel's attack.

These are the two most powerful killing techniques!
However, the gap between Li Weiyi and the giants of the Longevity Realm is too great. The opponent doesn't even need to get close; they could kill him from several miles away. The opponent hasn't used any magical artifacts for long-range attacks, clearly out of fear of harming the hostages he holds.

This solved the problem that had been bothering Li Weiyi the most!
Secondly, the opponent is extremely fast. If the distance is too close, Li Weiyi may not even have time to use the Divine Sword Talisman before he is rendered powerless.

The distance of the shot must be judged accurately.

Thirdly, the giants of the Longevity Realm have an extremely keen sense of danger and react very quickly.

It can be said that Li Weiyi's biggest advantage right now is that he is weak enough that even the most cautious giants in the Longevity Realm will definitely underestimate him.

Li Weiyi turned her head to look at the Grand Palace Master on her back. Her eyes were still closed, her breathing was even, and she did not respond even after being called several times.

Zen Sea Observation said that carrying her on one's back would be a protective charm, but it's hard to say whether that's reliable.

"coming!"

The blood-red Dao Heart Manifestation, like thousands of shackles, fell upon Li Weiyi.

Li Weiyi, who was running at high speed, suddenly trembled, and his speed decreased sharply, becoming slower and slower.

Even though Shenyi Hou was still three miles away, he had already suppressed Li Weiyi to the point that he could not move an inch. His magical energy condensed into misty chains, which wrapped around Li Weiyi's arms and legs.

"Then let's die together! Today we've already slain nine Dao Seeds of the Demon Kingdom, that's enough!"

Li Wei deliberately pretended to be in dire straits, his face contorted with bulging veins, and roared with resentment. He mustered all his strength to raise his arm amidst the opponent's Daoist manifestation and slash at the young marquis.

"You dare!"

Marquis Shenyi spread his four wings, skimmed low, and roared.

He launched a telepathic attack on Li Weiyi, attempting to stop him.

The battle intent of a Longevity Realm expert can easily shatter the soul consciousness of a Five Seas Realm martial artist, spanning several miles. A Dao Seed Realm martial artist, having already begun cultivating their soul, possesses a certain degree of resistance.

Li Weiyi was prepared, raising the spirit of the Fusang Divine Tree to resist the opponent's mental attack. In his consciousness, the body of the Divine Wing Marquis was even taller than the Fusang Divine Tree, exuding an overwhelming sense of oppression.

The Fusang Divine Tree could not stop it; it could only buy a little time.

Seizing this brief moment, Li Weiyi activated the divine sword talisman on the Yellow Dragon Sword. Countless runes appeared on the sword's surface.

A thousand years ago, special envoys dispatched by Lingxiao Palace would carry a divine sword talisman when going out on missions. This talisman was specifically used to intimidate and kill martial artists in the Longevity Realm, much like an imperial sword.

To Li Weiyi's surprise, the Divine Sword Talisman had not yet been activated.

A mile away, a painful scream was heard first.

Marquis Shenyi fell from mid-air, clutching his head, blood gushing from his eyes and nose. Terrified, he stumbled and tried to escape, no longer daring to pursue Li Weiyi.

Just now, Marquis Shenyi, filled with overwhelming killing intent, unleashed his battle tactics and mental attacks, intending to overwhelm Li Weiyi's consciousness and directly obliterate his soul.

But it backfired.

An unknown force retaliated, exponentially stronger, severely damaging his soul and scattering his will.

What Shenyi Hou didn't know was that Li Weiyi was carrying Yu Yaozi on his back. When his killing intent and battle strategy at the Longevity Realm level attacked, Yu Yaozi sensed the danger and automatically sent a wisp of her consciousness back.

The timing was perfect.

Li Weiyi unleashed the Yellow Dragon Sword, and instantly the runes of the Divine Sword Talisman flew out, carrying the sword itself.

The surrounding world was filled with sword energy, turning all vegetation into dust.

"boom!"

A single sword stroke tore through the snow-covered plains, the blade spreading for twenty miles.

The sword energy ravine stretched from his feet to the distant horizon, reaching a depth of six or seven meters in the deepest part and as wide as a river.

Is this the power of a talisman?

Li Weiyi froze on the spot, took a deep breath, enveloped the young marquis with his magical energy, and used his movement technique to rush swiftly towards the end of the sword energy ravine twenty miles away.

The body of the Divine Wing Marquis was torn to pieces and scattered for miles around.

The armor was relatively intact, except that the abdomen area was pierced by the Yellow Dragon Sword.

"Zheng!"

He retrieved the Yellow Dragon Sword from the depths of the soil.

Li Weiyi gripped the sword hilt, sighing inwardly. He had only forged one Divine Sword Talisman. Such a talisman, used to intimidate enemies, was far more valuable than simply using it.

Having lost the Divine Sword Talisman, Li Weiyi immediately searched for the Divine Wing Marquis's Boundary Bag.

Got nothing.

It's unclear whether it shattered under the divine sword talisman or whether Divine Wing Marquis simply didn't have a boundary bag.

Only a two-meter-long bow was found.

Li Weiyi didn't have time to check the bow's grade. He threw it into the Blood Mud Space and put away the damaged armor. Then, carrying the young marquis, he hurried towards the distant county town.

Seven or eight miles outside the county town, Li Weiyi used various methods to probe. Only after confirming that there were no other Longevity Realm experts in the city did he lead seven Phoenix-Winged Moth Queens and the swarms of insects they summoned to attack the city.

"Boom!"

The Purple Heaven Thunder Seal broke through the city's protective formation.

Seven phoenix-winged moth queens and seven swarms of insects surged in from the ground and the sky respectively.

The county town's defensive formations weren't particularly strong. Even after the demon kingdom's experts arrived, they only had time to set up a concealment formation that covered the entire town.
