The Primordial Law

Chapter 624 A Perilous Situation

Li Weiyi was secretly disappointed, but she could understand. If Bai Chuan hadn't cultivated the fifth level of the Emperor Technique, how could he have become the number one person in the Sword Dao Imperial Court?
If Shirakawa were to personally unleash this move, its power would undoubtedly be even more terrifying.

The clash of Daoist techniques just now amazed all the cultivators present, giving them a new understanding of Li Weiyi and Jingzhen and making them realize the gap between them.

A dozen miles away, a carriage drawn by a phoenix was parked on a high slope covered with wheat grass.

The carriage curtains fluttered in the wind.

The figure sitting inside the car had eyes as bright as stars, gazing at the distant, gloomy, ghostly mist. Then, his gaze fell on the woman shrouded in a radiant mist, seven phoenix-winged moths flying around her, like flower fairies dancing with butterflies, forming a combined attack formation.

"boom!"

"Boom!"

……

That golden giant skeleton ran like an earthquake, its body hundreds of meters tall, and countless heavy axes came crashing down.

The intelligence reports of Dongxu Camp contain information about it.

He is stronger than the Four-Eared Ghost Monkey Marquis and is a powerful spirit on par with the Jade Corpse Marquis.

Li Weiyi immediately dodged and appeared dozens of feet away. At the same time, he caught sight of the still image and anticipated the next attack from the golden giant's skeleton, and then he heard the sound of wind behind him.

Huangfu Song arrived with his spear, his entire body enveloped in magical energy and longevity scriptures. Then, he thrust his spear through the air.

The gun shot out and the air exploded.

Its speed and power are both incredibly formidable.

This is Zhan Wei, the most talented among the Twelve Taiyin Envoys, who has reached the peak of the third realm.

Of course, in Li Weiyi's opinion, Huangfu Song was still inferior to Luo Yinji and could only be considered the second best among the Taiyin Envoys.

Amidst the chirping of cicadas, Li Weiyi moved like a phantom, dodging the spear and slashing back with his sword, sending Huangfu Song flying.

The boundary bag was opened, releasing four transcendent battle corpse puppets dug from the burial ground, which stood in four different directions.

The next moment, he retrieved the Staff of All Things that was flying in mid-air.

They raised their spears overhead, drawing in the moonlight of time, and formed a combined attack formation.

The four war corpses moved swiftly, causing the battle formation to rotate, and collided with Jingzhen, who was carrying two flags and riding two array plates.

"Oh!"

The still frame's body went out of control and flew backward, showing signs of separation between its soul and body.

He stumbled back three steps as he fell to the ground, his internal energy surging uncontrollably. Looking closely, he saw the golden giant, a withered skeleton, wielding its axe to block Li Weiyi's advance, preventing him from pressing his advantage.

Then he looked at Nangong.

Just now, Nangong seized the opportunity and used a spell to almost strip away his true form. Nangong himself entered the Cave Ruins Camp as a spellcaster.

"Dao Tian Divine Shadow".

Huangfu Song unleashed the fifth level of his Daoist arts, his golden robes melting into a golden liquid lake, and a towering, spear-wielding divine figure rose behind him.

"Wow!"

The spear was swung out, like a golden pillar of heaven collapsing.

Li Weiyi's eyes flashed with cold light as he unleashed the Purple Heaven Thunder Seal and the Golden Heaven Thunder Seal simultaneously, striking the encircling still frame and the golden giant skeleton respectively.

"There's another swastika-shaped artifact?"

A surprised voice came from behind.

Li Weiyi's figure shot backward, having already withdrawn from the four transcendent battle corpses, and he suddenly turned around.

He risked his life, barely touching the golden spear in Dao Tian Shen Ying's hand, and thrust his sword straight at Huangfu Song's true form.

"Well done!"

Huangfu Song stood in mid-air, his tiger-like eyes blazing. He saw that Li Weiyi had used two magical artifacts with the character "万" (wan) on them, severely depleting his magical energy and leaving him in his weakest state. Therefore, instead of dodging or escaping, he decided to seize this opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.

The spear trembled and lashed out horizontally like a whip.

Instead of dodging as he expected, Li Weiyi threw away his sword and spear, freeing his hands to simultaneously use his magical treasure to seize the enemy.

They neutralized the power of the spear and seized it with all ten fingers.

"court death."

Huangfu Song did not believe that anyone of the same cultivation level could catch his full-force magical spear barehanded.

But, the next moment.

He believed it!

Li Weiyi gripped the spear with both hands, taking advantage of Huangfu Song's dodge of the Yellow Dragon Sword he threw.

He raised his hand, then lowered it, and slapped it onto the gun barrel.

This palm strike caused the dragon spirit to explode, creating ripples of shockwave.

"you……"

Huangfu Song's hands were numb with pain, and by the time he realized what was happening, the spear had already left his grasp. Then, the spear whistled back and struck him heavily.

"puff!"

Without the protection of his golden battle armor, Huangfu Song was struck by the spear shaft, causing the left half of his body to collapse, breaking seven or eight bones, and his body flew off at an angle.

"Pfft!"

Before Huangfu Song could land, Li Weiyi pierced his heart with a single spear thrust, pinning him to the ground.

The wound near the heart was wide open, almost tearing the upper body to pieces.

Huangfu Song lay on his back on the ground, his eyes still wide with terror.

In just three moves, he ruthlessly killed this rising star of the Taiyin Sect, giving Jingzhen and the others no time to rescue him. Li Weiyi's ten fingers were bleeding, and the skin on his arms was split open, but he ignored the pain and caught the Yellow Dragon Sword and the Staff of All Things that flew back.

"Li Weiyi, you really have impressed me!"

Jingzhen was furious. He channeled his inner energy into the Purple Heaven Thunder Seal, intending to take it away.

After the golden giant's withered bones blocked the Golden Sky Thunder Seal, it spat out bone fire that struck four transcendent battle corpse puppets, sending them flying. It then used the flames to erase the puppet runes on their bodies.

In terms of intelligence, the golden giant skeleton is no less intelligent than any human.

Undeterred by the flames, Li Weiyi faced the bone fire head-on. After collecting the four transcendent corpses into the evil camel bell, he leaped into the abdominal cavity of the golden giant's withered bones with a whoosh.

For the golden giant skeleton, its greatest advantage lies in its domineering power. Under the influence of Great Immortality, no one dares to confront it head-on.

Its greatest weakness is that its body is too large to shrink. Once someone is not afraid of its protective bone fire and protective scriptures and enters the gaps in its bones, they can deliver a fatal blow.

Previously, with Huangfu Song holding him back, Li Weiyi had never had a chance.

Jingzhen realized this and had no choice but to give up on collecting the Purple Heaven Thunder Seal, instead unleashing a long river of sword energy to attack Li Weiyi.

On the other side, Nangong, relying on the combined attack formation, resisted the attacks of Huo Tianming and several Ghost Marquises, but was completely shrouded in thick ghostly mist.

Li Weiyi withdrew the Purple Gold Seals and clashed head-on with Jingzhen, his body falling backward to the ground. Then, he turned and charged towards the ghostly cloud of mist, roaring, "Huo Tianming, prepare to die!"

"Stop him."

A still frame and the golden giant skeleton follow closely behind.

"Damn it, don't think you can scare me just because you killed Huangfu Song."

Huo Tianming unleashed the fifth level of Daoist technique, "Cloud Sea Wind Palm," where hundreds of thousands of longevity scriptures and magical energy intertwined to form a hurricane, striking out with a single palm to intercept the oncoming Li Weiyi.

"puff!"

Li Wei's sword pierced through the sea of ​​clouds and the palm wind, slightly reducing his speed, but he was still moving swiftly.

The second sword strike landed on Huo Tianming, sending him flying diagonally, blood splattering out, his arm flying into the air.

Huo Tianming fell to the ground with a thud, inwardly cursing Li Weiyi for being too ruthless. Yet he also knew that Li Weiyi's sword strike had to be ruthless, and yet it wasn't ruthless enough.

Because his earlier warning, if carefully considered, would inevitably arouse suspicion.

Huo Tianming secretly rubbed his chest again, coughing up a mouthful of blood: "How terrifying... Li Weiyi..."

The palm wind from the Cloud Sea Wind Palm had a certain impact on the still frame and the golden giant skeleton that were chasing behind.

Ahead, Li Weiyi appeared, his body adorned with four-colored spiritual light armor. He swung two swords in mid-air, one to the left and one to the right. The sword energy ripped through the sky, and with overwhelming force, completely dissipated the ghostly mist that shrouded Nangong.

A scream rang out as two Ghost Lords at the third realm were cleaved in two by the sword energy of the Yellow Dragon Sword, their ghostly bodies damaged and burning as they fled into the distance.

"go!"

Li Weiyi put away the seven Phoenix-Winged Moth Kings, took Nangong's hand, and directly activated the Governor's Robe, disappearing into the purple mist.

Without Huangfu Song, Huo Tianming, and the two Ghost Marquises, it has become extremely difficult to affect his spatial teleportation by relying on battle tactics and mental attacks.

"He can't escape, chase him!"

The still frame releases its intent, locking onto Li Weiyi, and chases after him together with the golden giant skeleton.

The previous failure can be attributed to Mo Duanfeng, and Qingzao was also blamed.

If Li Weiyi is allowed to escape again this time, not to mention whether he can accept his own incompetence, Chu Yutian will definitely have something to say about it.

The wind howled on the cliff, and the smell of blood was strong.

The earth was shattered, with scorched soil from lightning strikes, fissures from sword strikes, and large footprints.

Chu Yutian arrived with the wind, as if he had appeared out of thin air.

He walked to Huangfu Song's corpse, stared calmly at the spear embedded in his heart, and pulled it out. Then, he looked at Huo Tianming, who was crawling on the ground like a dog, searching for his arm.

Huo Tianming, his face deathly pale, clutched his arms and slumped into a crater created by a magical artifact. His voice, hoarse from a lung injury, was like a broken bellows: "True disciple, kill Li Weiyi! You must kill him, or… we will all die in the Ancient Kingdom of Time Ruins…"

"He needs to recover well; he's far from being in that condition."

Chu Yutian's figure had disappeared.

Even with Huo Tianming's cultivation level, he couldn't see how he left at all; his speed far surpassed that of Li Weiyi and Jingzhen.

……

Whether it's activating the swastika artifact or using the spatial teleportation technique of the governor's robe, both will severely deplete magical energy.

With a talisman attached to his body, Li Weiyi grabbed Nangong and flew across the boundless wilderness.

"Actually, the dark power of the Netherworld near Chun City has been purified by time by seventy or eighty percent. As long as one does not practice breathing exercises for a long time, the impact on one's mind and martial arts is not that great."

Nangong used his breathing technique to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, determined to restore his martial arts combat power at all costs.

Clearly, she sensed the ambush from all sides, knew the determination of all forces to capture her and kill Li Weiyi, and an invisible killing intent permeated the air.

Li Weiyi asked, "If the Ancient Time Clan hears the distress whistle, will they take action?"

"I don't know if any of them heard... Li Weiyi, the Ancient Clan of Time is not in Chun City." Nangong said this in a frank tone, with a hint of bitterness in his voice.

Li Weiyi asked, "Then why are you in such a hurry to return to Chuncheng?"

“Something big has happened at the border. I’ll let you know. The Four-Eared Ghost Monkey Marquis has come out of Chun City. Let’s go, circle around to the east.” Nangong looked ahead, his eyes filled with solemnity and worry.

Thick ghostly fog rolled over the mountain pass, concealing endless killing intent.

Heading east, after traveling two hundred miles, one can enter the underworld.

Thus, by using the influence of the Netherworld Qi on the martial artist's perception of the mind, one can evade powerful enemies and escape more easily.

"No, this time we won't go east!"

Li Weiyi thought of how Luo Yinji always predicted his thoughts, and he always felt that she was waiting outside the Netherworld. So, he pulled Nangong and headed west.

(The chapter I owe will have to wait a day or two; I haven't adjusted my sleep schedule yet. Ugh...)
