Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 94 Life is like a play
“Junior brother, I know a little about poisonous creatures. This is a ‘Black-winged Centipede.’ It not only has the deadly venom of a centipede, but it also has two pairs of black wings, allowing it to fly at low altitudes. It’s a gregarious poisonous creature and is extremely difficult to deal with!”

"You came with your senior sister. She brought you out to do a mission, so she must protect your safety!"

Fairy Linghua's pretty face was full of sincerity, and she spoke with utmost seriousness, as if it were truly so.

This is completely different from the usual radiant and charming Linghua Fairy.

Li Yunjing was amazed when he saw it.

"What a fucking great actor! If you keep acting like this, I'll believe you!"

Li Yunjing thought for a moment, but before he could speak, the "Ten Thousand Mile Communication Talisman" he wore close to his body activated.

Li Yunjing quickly used his divine sense to observe, and saw a line of text written on it: "Don't worry, your battlefield is all in my sight. Xu Xun is usually quite arrogant, but he's not having an easy time now, is he?"

"call……"

After reading this line of text, Li Yunjing was completely relieved.

This statement proves that Fu Chao was hiding in a concealed location, observing their every move.

This kid didn't stand himself up!

When will Manager Li contact me?

Even without his words, Li Yunjing was still a little nervous, afraid that he would miss contact with Steward Li.

"So? What's your decision?"

Fairy Linghua was unaware that Li Yunjing had already made contact with reinforcements in a short period of time, and she continued to urge them anxiously.

It seems that this "Black Winged Centipede" was created by the "Ten Thousand Laws Association"?
Is he trying to disrupt the situation and get himself away from his fellow disciples in the "Shenxiao Daozong"?
Li Yunjing pondered for a moment, then observed the surrounding situation and transmitted his voice, "Senior Sister, we can't leave yet. Everyone else is fighting the enemy here. If we retreat first, wouldn't that be considered desertion? We'd be in big trouble if we were punished according to the sect rules! Let's wait and see!"

"Alright then! Junior brother, you come with me, your senior sister will protect you."

After thinking it over, Fairy Linghua concluded that there was nothing wrong with Li Yunjing's words, so she stopped urging him.

Otherwise, it would backfire and arouse Li Yunjing's suspicion, which would be bad.

Linghua Fairy prayed silently in her heart: "No matter who is fighting Xu Xun in the void, I hope they can hold him off!"

The fact that someone like Xu Xun suddenly participated in the operation to eradicate the traitorous cultivators was completely unexpected by the "Ten Thousand Laws Assembly".

Such a person is terrifying, and not someone the "Ten Thousand Laws Society" would dare to scheme against.

"Si Hezhong! It's you? Are you crazy? Are you representing yourself, or your 'Yuanyang Dao Sect'?"

At this moment, Xu Xun's exclamation suddenly rang out from the void.

This was the first time he had shown a surprised expression since the start of the battle.

Li Yunjing was equally surprised. For Xu Xun to value someone so highly, the newcomer must be no ordinary person and must have a significant background!
"Yuanyang Dao Sect? It seems to be a force outside the Ming Dynasty! There is no record of Yuanyang Dao Sect in the 'Divine Firmament Jade Book'!"

Li Yunjing's expression hardened, and the other disciples of the "Enforcement Hall" and inner disciples also looked solemn. He could clearly feel the atmosphere becoming oppressive.

These disciples and inner disciples of the "Enforcement Hall" must have heard of the reputation of the "Yuanyang Dao Sect" and know its origins.

Could they really be major sects of the same level?
"Hahaha! Xu Xun, last time, in the Silver Moon Dynasty, our two factions clashed, and your Divine Firmament Dao Sect showed no mercy!"

Si Hezhong was tall and slender, dressed in blue, with a fair complexion, and very young.

His expression was arrogant and overbearing.

Clearly, this person came specifically to retaliate against the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" and Xu Xun because of this incident.

"Si Hezhong, you must understand that the competition that time was out of necessity. Rare and precious materials should be obtained by the capable!"

"This time, you bribed a cultivator to ambush and kill my Shenxiao Dao Sect disciples. This is an open act of enmity with our sect. Are the elders of the Yuanyang Dao Sect aware of this?"

Xu Xun's expression was cold, and he secretly made a hand seal, hovering in the void, facing off against Si Hezhong from afar.

"Heh heh! Looks like you've got a lot of trouble? I'm not the only one dealing with you?"

Just as Si Hezhong was about to refute Xu Xun's words, his divine sense swept across the ground, and he smiled calmly, no longer in a hurry.

"Huh? You didn't release these 'black-winged centipedes'?"

Xu Xun also noticed the situation below and couldn't help but ask.

"Hahaha! What do you take my 'Yuanyang Dao Sect' for? My disciples travel the world relying on unparalleled Dao techniques. Do you think these mere poisonous insects and disgusting creatures are worthy of being commanded by my sect?"

Si Hezhong laughed disdainfully. How could someone like him possibly use such a poison?

Xu Xun surveyed the scene and saw that the situation was still tense. This group of cultivators seemed to number several hundred, and it would not be possible to kill them all in a short time.

The sudden appearance of countless "black-winged centipedes" has added even more trouble out of nowhere.

Xu Xun then looked at Si Hezhong and sighed, saying, "Since you've come for me, I'll give you a fair chance to challenge me! However, I must state beforehand that this matter is not directed at the 'Yuanyang Dao Sect'!"

Yuanyang Dao Sect is a powerful sect on par with Shenxiao Dao Sect, and is also one of the overlords of the Southern Heaven Continent.

Given such a powerful force, Xu Xun was unwilling to cause a complete feud between the two factions because of himself.

Ordinary disciples are oblivious to worldly affairs, but he is different. He is one of the future leaders of the "Hall of Enforcement," a peerless genius who has been cultivated by the sect since early on.

He knew quite a bit about the development of the Shenxiao Dao Sect in the Southern Heaven Continent, and the situation outside was not particularly optimistic.

One of the "protector armies" of the Shenxiao Dao Sect has been fighting against other forces on battlefields in other countries, and a fierce battle breaks out almost every three to five years.

In general, the Yuanyang Dao Sect is an ally of the Shenxiao Dao Sect in its conquest of the outer realms, and both sides share common interests.

Xu Xun naturally did not want to ruin the good relationship between the two sects because of the two of them.

This Si Hezhong was no ordinary disciple of the Yuanyang Dao Sect; otherwise, Xu Xun would have killed him directly, and the two sects would have pretended nothing had happened in order to cooperate.

Unfortunately, this person was a true disciple of the Yuanyang Dao Sect and had come seeking revenge, which naturally made things difficult for Xu Xun. As for being afraid of the Yuanyang Dao Sect?

That's not the case!

It's just that it doesn't align with the interests of the Shenxiao Dao Sect.

In life, there are many compromises and concessions, not just blindly being strong.

This is the time for Xu Xun to humble himself and try to resolve the grudges.

"Hehe! Why are you talking so much nonsense!"

Si Hezhong looked at the people below, then turned to Xu Xun and sneered, "The affairs of the sect are none of our business! Today, I am here to kill you and teach the people of the Divine Firmament Dao Sect to be less arrogant."

"Ugh!"

Xu Xun sighed, seemingly unwilling to discuss the topic any further, and changed the subject, saying, "Since that's the case, then let's have a fight. If I win, you are not allowed to target any of my Shenxiao Dao Sect disciples in the future!"

"Heh heh! You're quite confident. I don't care how the people below fight! I can only control myself. If I lose, I'll naturally return to the mountain to cultivate in seclusion and wait for the next opportunity to come out and take revenge!"

Si Hezhong sneered repeatedly, seemingly very disgusted by Xu Xun's rhetoric about the great principles of the sect.

"Since that's the case, then there's nothing more to say. I'll show you just how powerful the 'Divine Firmament Dao Sect' truly is!"

Xu Xun shook his head slightly, his gaze hardening. A murderous aura flashed in his eyes, and with a swift movement, he swung a long sword in his hand, aiming it at Si Hezhong!

"Buzz!"

Instantly, the longsword emitted a loud clang, and like a bolt of lightning, it carried Xu Xun to Si Hezhong's side and slashed down fiercely!

"Good timing! It should have been done sooner!"

Si Hezhong laughed loudly, and with a flash of his azure longsword, he met the attack head-on.

Two long, rainbow-like figures flashed and darted through the dim void, creating waves of air and even producing sonic booms.

At this moment, the two activated their spiritual weapons simultaneously, their speed reaching the standard of the Foundation Establishment Realm!

In Li Yunjing's eyes, the two sides were like fighter jets engaged in close combat, sometimes getting close, sometimes striking and retreating, moving away from each other at a speed that was dazzling.

"This is a top-tier expert!"

While keeping an eye on his surroundings, he occasionally glanced into the void.

After several attempts, even Fairy Linghua couldn't resist making a move against Li Yunjing!
"This kid is truly ignorant! At the crucial moment of a major battle, he still dares to be distracted by watching masters fight?"

However, Fairy Hualing thought that there were fellow disciples of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" nearby, and if she were seen attacking Li Yunjing, she would be doomed.

This finally put an end to her idea of ​​doing it herself.

"Oh no! Junior brother, these 'black-winged centipedes' are coming!"

Suddenly, Fairy Hualing let out a cry of surprise, and saw that they were surrounded by a dense swarm of centipedes.

These centipedes were all enormous, the smallest being a foot in size. Li Yunjing even spotted a black-winged centipede among them that was larger than a person.

"Chucky!"

These black-winged centipedes were extremely ferocious. Upon seeing a crowd, regardless of whether they were from the Divine Firmament Dao Sect or Tribulation Cultivators, they would spit out mouthfuls of dark green venom.

The venom, when it landed on the ground, rocks, and trees, immediately emitted a hissing fumes, and in no time, it corroded and melted anything that came into contact with it.

Such is true of all things. If a cultivator is not careful and gets splashed with venom, the magical artifact will make a "sizzling" sound and emit white smoke.

If the substance gets on the skin, the person will scream in agony, and soon their whole body will turn blue, and they will collapse to the ground, lifeless.

As soon as a person falls to the ground, swarms of black-winged centipedes rush over and devour them completely in no time, leaving only a clean skeleton.

Such a horrific scene really gave Li Yunjing a big fright.

Many outer disciples of the Shenxiao Dao Sect had never seen such a scene before.

They were all so frightened that their legs trembled and they shivered.

From this point on, casualties also began to occur among the people of the Shenxiao Dao Sect!

"Puff puff!"

Li Yunjing drew his sword repeatedly, slaying one black-winged centipede after another. Seeing the green liquid flowing from the corpses, he felt utterly disgusted.

Before long, the battlefield expanded.

Forced by the black-winged centipede, the disciples of the Shenxiao Dao Sect had no choice but to retreat in all directions, falling into a situation of fighting each other.

As for those cultivators who had undergone tribulations, they were even worse off than those from the Divine Firmament Dao Sect. Most of them had already died, and the rest were howling like ghosts, trying to break free from the encirclement of the "Black Winged Centipede."

At this moment, only Fairy Linghua was closely following Li Yunjing.

While slaying the black-winged centipede, Li Yunjing continued to use his divine sense to activate the "Ten Thousand Mile Communication Talisman" to maintain constant communication with Fu Chao, and also proactively activated the location function of his "Ten Thousand Mile Communication Talisman".

This allows Fu Chao to have complete control over his position.

"Li Yunjing, charge towards the cave of the calamity cultivator!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice appeared in Li Yunjing's mind.

It was none other than Steward Li, who had saved his life!

"Good! Reinforcements have arrived!"

Li Yunjing was overjoyed, but kept a straight face. He grabbed Linghua Fairy and said urgently, "Senior Sister, let's fight our way out of here!"
