I am collecting entries in reincarnation

Chapter 278 The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind
Say "Welcome, Master!"

Li Ming immediately noticed a deep breath suddenly appearing. Li Ming concluded that if he continued his offensive now, even if he could easily defeat the man in black in front of him, what awaited him would definitely not be a good result. He had no choice but to turn around and forcefully stop, landing in front of the man in black.

At this moment, a middle-aged man in a green shirt walked slowly over with a smile on his face. He had handsome features and his eyes seemed to contain countless mysteries. He was obviously standing not far from Li Ming and his eyes could see clearly, but he gave people a feeling that there was no one here.

Li Ming's heart tightened, knowing that this man was definitely a true innate master, and not an ordinary person. His mental strength had completely suppressed him, and he had not noticed any trace of him before.

Just when he was about to make a move, he showed some aura, which immediately shook his mind. Now that he looked closely, he found that he had restrained his aura. This was the magical power of divine energy. Although Li Ming had many innate experiences, there was still a gap between him and the masters of the big sects in the main world who had been passed down for who knows how many years. At least Li Ming had not figured out this technique.

At this moment, Li Ming had to be extremely alert and respond carefully.

"Luring the snake out of its hole? Do you know the saying, 'The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind?'"

Yang Rulong said softly, then walked to the side of the man in green.

"Are you the young monk Mingxin from Guangde Temple?" the man spoke slowly. His voice was pleasant and magnetic, with an indescribable attraction.

Li Ming, as if facing a formidable enemy, nodded solemnly and said, "It is me, the humble monk. May I ask your name, Senior?"

The man shook his head and said, "If you didn't know my name, we could still stand together and chat, but if you knew it, then there would be only one way to go, and that's death."

Li Ming smiled upon hearing this and said, "So it seems that Senior wants to have a chat with me?"

Ye Chaoci naturally nodded slightly and said, "I admire you very much. Since you came down from the mountain, you have been doing things according to your heart. Although you are a monk's disciple, you are decisive and ruthless, which is quite to my liking. In my opinion, the small Guangde Temple cannot accommodate you. It is better for you to join my sect. There is a bright future for you."

"Senior, you are joking." Li Ming's face was indifferent.

"The elders in the temple treated me very kindly, taught me martial arts, and raised me. I cannot repay their kindness, so how could I choose someone else?"

Ye Chaoci glanced up at Yang Rulong for some reason, then smiled and said, "But if the mountain sect was completely destroyed, all of your fellow disciples were killed, and your enemies were at large, would you let go of your hatred and live with the Green Lantern and the Ancient Buddha, or would you remain steadfast and do everything in your power to wipe out your enemies' entire clan?"

Upon hearing this, Li Ming pondered for a moment, chanted "Amitabha," and then slowly said, "Monks do not tell lies. It is better to resolve a feud than to create one."

Ye Chaoci looked at Li Ming with interest, and seemed very curious about Li Ming's next answer.

"Of course I will ask those enemies who killed my senior teachers and fellow disciples to be torn into pieces and their souls banished to the underworld. This way, we will be free from all grudges and then be at ease. Damn that Buddha. He can't even protect his own believers. Who would believe in him?" Li Ming answered seriously.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chaoci smiled, pointed at Li Ming, looked him up and down, and said, "I like you even more now, little monk. It would be a pity to kill you." He then looked at Yang Rulong and said, "Look at how free and easy he is. You, don't look so bitter and resentful all the time."

Yang Rulong, however, was very frugal with his words and just nodded slightly.

Li Ming chuckled and said, "Since you feel sorry for us, why not let us go? I will go back and recite the Diamond Sutra a hundred times for you and pray for you to have many children and good fortune."

"Oh, the little monk is not praying honestly but reciting the Diamond Sutra?" Ye Chaoci sneered. "You designed to lure him out, how are you going to settle this account?"

Li Ming chuckled and said, "Well, that's it. Let's be friends. Ever since that day, I've been obsessed with Brother Black's elegance and grace. I've been yearning for him and want to make friends with him. But Brother Black's beauty only appeared once, and it's hard to see him again. So I set up a honey trap. I want to see Brother Black play chess and drink tea with him again. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Listening to Li Ming's confusing words, not to mention Ye Chaoci, even Yang Rulong almost couldn't hold it in anymore, his face was a little distorted, and Bian Suxin even laughed. At this point, the atmosphere in the room eased a little.

But in the next second, Ye Chaoci, with a smile on his face, waved his left hand lightly.

Li Ming only felt that his body seemed to be entangled and pulled by something. An invisible force field had wrapped around Li Ming's body at some point and pulled Li Ming towards Ye Chaoci!
What trick?!

Li Ming was shocked. This method was different from the ordinary people's method of releasing internal energy or罡气 to control objects. This was because Li Ming also knew those methods, but there would inevitably be some movements when he made a move, such as colored罡气, or the flow of air. But at this moment, there was no anger at all, which caught Li Ming off guard.

Fortunately, Li Ming has a solid foundation, and these force fields from the outside cannot penetrate Li Ming's body. They just wrap around him like invisible silk threads and pull Li Ming towards Ye Chaoci.

Ye Chaoci extended his right palm, slightly bent his five fingers into a claw shape, and reached out to grab Li Ming's head. There was no trick at all, just a simple action, but coupled with his inexplicable true energy force field, it was as if Li Ming was going to commit suicide by crashing into his palm. Although his hand was like white jade, with distinct and slender finger joints, and looked like an ordinary scholar's hand holding a pen, Li Ming didn't believe that his head could be harder than his claws.

He immediately exerted force on his feet and stepped heavily. His body shook and was covered with a layer of faint white gas. It was Li Ming's innate qi. However, it was beyond Li Ming's expectation that the invisible force field was not separated after he released the qi. Instead, it continued to affect him. However, due to Li Ming's force, his body stopped moving towards Ye Chaoci.

Seeing this, Ye Chaoci showed a smile on his face, just like a child who has come across a favorite toy. Ye Chaoci moved his palm and tore with a claw. Immediately, five clear black air currents visible to the naked eye shot out towards Li Mingfei.

Claw wind shot out, Li Ming's face was solemn, he raised his palms flat in front of his chest, the aura around him condensed, and the color turned light yellow, then two palm prints took shape in front of him, and he swung them out from a distance, but saw the claw wind and palm prints facing each other, making a roar, and then disappeared without a trace.

"It's indeed the innate qi, quite interesting!" Ye Chaoci laughed and took a step forward. It was just a simple step, but it was like stepping on Li Ming's heart. His heart was shocked and the flow of his breath stagnated.

Yang Rulong and Bian Suxin were in even worse condition. Yang Rulong swayed a few times and barely managed to stand, while Bian Suxin sat down directly on the ground with a look of pain on her face.
