The Primordial Law

Chapter 498 Facing the Battle Without a Trace

Li Weiyi's internal energy flowed rapidly through his 120 meridians, pulling the bowstring to its limit.

The seven-clawed celestial dragon fire arrow that condensed on the bowstring burst forth with a radiance even brighter than the Everlasting Flower.

"Boom!"

The arrow shot out, causing the surrounding mirages to collapse into fog.

"Bang bang!"

In an instant, Sheng Wulian and the Prince of the Underworld Dragon clashed hands seven times, one using a grappling technique and the other a claw mark.

Prince Mingjiao was struck in the chest by Sheng Wulian's finger after he withstood Princess Dengfeng's flying sword and the governor's seal.

Ripples spread across his chest, and the seventh-grade thousand-character armor emitted a metallic clanging sound. The Nether Dragon Prince was sent flying backward, crashing through several miles of mirage-like buildings before finally regaining his footing.

"Oh!"

The immortal flower was struck by a flaming arrow, and its radiance shattered.

The flowers burst open.

The three petals flew in three different directions.

Sheng Wulian was about to pluck the Flower of Immortality and truly become a disciple when he watched helplessly as an arrow whizzed past him. He could clearly see the dragon-shaped arrow with its seven claws, but it was too fast to stop.

Princess Lantern Phoenix was very close. She collected the blue heart-shaped petals that flew towards her and immediately rushed towards the direction of the red heart-shaped petals.

Prince Mingjiao, Zhu Qishier Chongtian, Tang Zhan, and others also rushed over.

Li Weiyi took out a bright red ribbon, activated it, and rolled it towards the golden petals that had flown a hundred feet to the right.

"Stop him! We can't let him get the Flower of Immortality. If he gets any stronger, we'll all die in the East Sea."

Fu Wenyan knew all too well Li Weiyi's ruthlessness; almost all of the members of the Rice Cult had been purged, so how could he be an exception?

In his hand, he wielded a bronze brush of the ninth rank, capable of producing a thousand characters. The white, transcendent hairs at the tip of the brush transformed into a waterfall, intertwining with the red silk.

The bronze pen is far superior in quality and power to the red silk, and is a magical artifact that even those in the Great Longevity Realm would covet. It contains strands of transcendent power.

"Then kill him."

Ye Cang ran atop the Mirage Tower, his three magical blades spinning along the red ribbon, striking Li Weiyi first.

Meng Hualong and Fu Bawu released the external manifestations of their Daoist hearts, namely the "Seventy-Two Sages" and the "Thousand Character Classic," respectively, which suppressed Li Weiyi from a distance of a hundred feet. The two strode forward, one like a dragon and the other like a tiger.

Zuoqiu Hongting flashed out and stood in front of Li Weiyi, raising her peach wood staff horizontally.

Instantly, an array shield in the shape of a Bagua appeared, with dense array patterns blocking the three flying knives, and then colliding with the external manifestations of Meng Hualong and Fu Bawu's Dao hearts.

"Boom!"

It actually blocked it.

In terms of mastery of formations, Zuoqiu Hongting far surpasses Li Weiyi, who doesn't study formations much.

Li Wei pointed to the sky, and a seventy-two-strike lightning array appeared above Fu Wenyan's head. The seventy-two lightning bolts poured down like a waterfall, engulfing him with tremendous force.

Taking this opportunity, the red ribbon, like a long river, surged and trembled violently, breaking free from the bronze pen's entanglement, and was retrieved by Li Weiyi.

After obtaining the golden petals from the red silk, Li Weiyi, having heard Zuoqiu Hongting say that they could not be swallowed directly, first stored them in the Feng Mansion.

"go!"

Li Weiyi noticed that many powerful figures were rushing over and urging Zuoqiu Hongting to evacuate.

Suddenly, an incredibly terrifying aura swept in.

Li Weiyi and Zuoqiu Hongting's vision was swallowed by the white light, and they could no longer see anything. They could only feel that Sheng Wulian was like a god or a sacred mountain, moving over at an extremely fast speed, with a grand and majestic presence.

Meng Hualong and Fu Bawu were both startled by Sheng Wulian's aura and dodged to the left and right.

Almost the instant the two dodged, Sheng Wulian shot out like a white beam from between them, shattering the Bagua-shaped formation with a single palm strike, turning it into a sky full of peach blossoms.

Li Weiyi used his Heavenly Eye between his eyebrows to break through the "Heavenly Light of Annihilation," and stepped forward without hesitation, unleashing his strongest palm strike.

Martial arts and telekinesis are combined.

He unleashed the Sixfold Incineration of Karma, the third level of its mastery, and struck out with a palm. His magical energy and mental power combined to condense into a celestial dragon and a golden crow, their palm prints colliding with each other.

This palm strike was even more powerful than the third level of the Emperor's Technique.

"Boom!"

Li Weiyi's long hair flew wildly, and the mirage behind her exploded completely.

Surprise flashed in Sheng Wulian's eyes. Although his palm strike was not a powerful Taoist technique, it was definitely not something that anyone below the level of the young emperor could withstand.

From between Zuoqiu Hongting's brows, a radiant flame of spiritual energy, as dazzling as the blazing sun, emanated. She swung her peachwood staff, unleashing a triple Bagua array that sent Sheng Wulian, who was battling Li Weiyi with palm strikes, flying dozens of feet away.

"it is good!"

"Li Weiyi, Liu Fengshu, today is the day you two die."

In the next instant, Sheng Wulian mobilized the primordial energy within his body, and his 99% immortal body's blood and energy surged like a river.

He unleashed both palms simultaneously, striking out the Hunyuan Palm and the Jidi Seal respectively.

Zuoqiu Hongting placed the peach wood staff in front of her, and under the impetus of her vast mental power, it quickly grew into a peach tree.

The peach tree was covered with petal-shaped runes.

Li Weiyi didn't have time to use the Six Like Burning Karma again, so he directly unleashed the Purple Heaven Thunder Seal.

The peach tree blocked the Chaos Palm, and the Purple Heaven Thunder Seal met the Emperor Ji's Seal. "Boom!"

The power unleashed by the three of them leveled the mirage that stretched for miles, and the waves swept in all directions.

"Wow!"

Liu Ye ran over, leaping over Li Weiyi and Zuoqiu Hongting from behind, and cleaved down with his halberd as if splitting a mountain, landing on Sheng Wulian's head.

A brilliant white light shone from Sheng Wulian's head, blocking the battle halberd, but his body was blasted into the sea.

Three miles away, Deathless Despair transformed into a black cloud, sweeping across the sky in pursuit of Princess Lantern Phoenix.

The woman in red silk and the woman in purple arrived from two different directions; the former's footwork was mysterious, while the latter rode a boat into the air.

The woman in purple stood on the green boat, holding a zither and playing music.

A thousand-foot-long string ripped through the void, its sound piercing, sharp as a sword, and unpredictable.

"A large number of experts from Inamiya have arrived. We must leave immediately."

Li Weiyi and his two companions affixed the talisman and returned towards Fengshi Reef.

Sheng Wulian, Wu Hongling, and the woman in purple robes chased after them to Phoenix Rock Reef, where they saw thousands of martial artists from Lingxiao Realm raising hundreds of magical artifacts. Five more battle formations moved rapidly and surrounded them, with heavy weapons flying out from each formation.

The five battle formations originated from the Zhu Clan, Lei Xiao Sect, Zuo Qiu Clan, Xue Jian Tang Clan, and Jiu Li Clan, respectively.

Seeing this, Sheng Wulian and his two companions immediately retreated and returned to Mirage Dragon City to deal with the Nether Dragon Prince who had stolen the crimson petals.

"The Jiao Clan is powerful in the East China Sea. We must not allow the Dark Jiao Prince to escape back to the islands and reefs."

Sheng Wulian turned around and looked at Li Weiyi and the other two who had returned to the ship. The sense of defeat in his heart told him that if he did not kill these three, his confidence in being invincible in the same realm would be shrouded in gloom.

On the Jiuli tribe's ship, all the martial artists looked at Li Weiyi with burning eyes and shouted, "The Hidden God is mighty!"

The hermits of the Jiuli Hidden Sect, in particular, felt a great sense of pride and held their heads high.

His ability to go toe-to-toe with Inamiya Shinden no Ren is a complete subversion of everyone's understanding.

It should be noted that at the banquet where the generals were being called up, Zhu Qishier Chongtian and Sheng Wulian clashed palms together, and Zhu Qishier Chongtian coughed up blood and was forced to retreat.

"Have the rest of the people returned?"

Li Weiyi was worried that the martial arts practitioners in Lingxiao Realm would suffer retaliation from Daogong.

With two swords on his back, Tang Zhan leaped onto the Jiuli tribe's ship: "Except for some old guys who are nearing the end of their lives and still want to fight, everyone else has retreated!"

Zhu Qishi's second step landed on the deck, extremely unwilling: "The crimson petals have been taken by the Nether Dragon Prince! Mirage Dragon City is the closest to us. I suggest that we bring the army over there and suppress them all."

With only the three hundred sword and axe soldiers of the Zhu Clan, Zhu Qishier Chongtian had no confidence in simultaneously contending with the numerous powerful figures of the Daogong Clan and the Jiao Clan.

Li Weiyi gazed at the majestic Mirage Dragon City in the distance, where enormous black shadows surged into the city from the water's depths. On the water's surface, dark, ominous clouds blanketed the sky.

The demon beast army under the Jiao clan is arriving one after another.

In terms of numbers, they far surpass the human martial artists of the Lingxiao Realm.

Li Weiyi said, "Although the battle formation is strong, its movement speed is slow. It can only be used to support us and for defense and counterattack."

Zhu Qishi sighed deeply, knowing that going now would be tantamount to starting a full-scale war with the demon race. A war against the demon race in the East Sea would be a certain defeat.

Li Weiyi comforted him, saying, "There can't be only one Everlasting Flower; there will definitely be another chance."

Zhu Qishier Chongtian nodded deeply, then laughed heartily: "No matter what, the appearance of the Longevity Flower means that the excavation of the Ancient Immortal Dragon's remains will indeed bring about an opportunity to cultivate the Longevity Body."

“We’ve only just started digging!” Zhu Yibai said.

Zhu Qishier Chongtian repeatedly said, "Yes, that's right."

On the turbulent sea, the Water Beaver Fairy, stepping on dark red smoke, raced swiftly towards them.

It shouted urgently, "Brother Ren, Her Highness the Princess is being hunted down by Si Wuyan, Gai Canghai, and Gai Lingyun. She was unable to return to Fengwei Reef and has fled south!"

One sword cleaves the vast ocean, two swords battle against the clouds.

Gai Canghai and Gai Lingyun are stronger than Huoxin and Zhenxin in combat.

Li Weiyi looked down at the ship and smiled, "Don't worry, Her Highness the Princess must have brought a magic escape technique with her, she'll be fine."

"Something's wrong...something really is wrong. The people from Inamiya also brought escape talismans."

The water beaver fairy was so anxious that she was jumping up and down, and her words were somewhat incoherent: "If Her Highness the Princess could handle it, she would definitely return to the island. Now, it can only mean that the enemy is too powerful, and she doesn't even have a chance to return. My cousin and the others have already rushed over, but the demon race is not as proficient in battle formations as you humans, so they can only rely on their demon lives to fight."

Li Wei frowned, feeling that what the Water Lily Fairy said made some sense.

"Brother Ren, don't hesitate, lend us a hand."

"In terms of the number of top experts, the Lingxiao human race is far inferior to the Daogong and Du'e Temple, by a huge margin. In terms of the number of soldiers and demons, they are far inferior to the East Sea demon race. You cannot rely entirely on Du'e Temple; you need more allies. Her Highness the princess said that she has a five-thousand-year-old elixir," said the Water Lily Immortal.

Top-tier and elite chiefs are difficult to cultivate later in life, unless there is a great opportunity.

However, ordinary chief cultivators are relatively easy for ancient sects to cultivate. For example, the reward for the ten geniuses in the Hidden Dragon Lantern Festival is that they can go to the Crossing Calamity Temple to reshape their meridians, wind palace, and ancestral field, thus creating a stronger foundation for cultivation.

At that time, they had already reached the Fifth Sea Realm, and the difficulty of building a foundation had greatly increased, yet they were still able to do it.

In Yongquan Realm, the Ancient Sect possesses numerous methods for cultivating all-silver-level martial artists with a hundred meridians, and can also select the best from multiple living realms.
