Mortal: Starting by looting Han Laomo's entire herb garden

When the cultivators of the Four Laws Sect saw the two streaks of light on the horizon, they immediately grasped at straws and shouted at the top of their lungs.

"Master! Master, save me!"

"Master is here! Master is here!"

Master Sifa moved with incredible speed, arriving in just a few breaths.

He glanced at the dozen or so level-seven demonic beasts and the two infant carp beasts in the arena, his brows furrowing. He turned to Lu Yan and said, "Luckily we arrived in time. I didn't expect there to be so many level-seven demonic beasts. Even for me, facing so many would be a bit tricky."

Lu Yan stood with his hands behind his back, watching the dozen or so level-seven demonic beasts rampage through the horde, and a scene suddenly flashed through his mind.

In the original story, Feng hope, a level nine demon beast, was surrounded and killed without injury by a group of six-winged frost centipedes in the Core Formation stage.

This illustrates that levels are not absolute; a large enough quantity can still be deadly.

He shook his head, dismissing those thoughts, and said calmly, "Perfect, I was just about to test the power of my new cultivation technique."

Master Sifa was taken aback. He didn't know Lu Yan's background, but since the other party dared to say that, he must have some confidence.

He then laughed and said, "Then I must see for myself. Fellow Daoist Lu, rest assured, I will be here to support you."

Lu Yan nodded and said no more. He formed hand seals, his spiritual power surged, and he activated the Great Brahma Thunder King Technique at full power.

boom!

A golden Dharma image, several dozen feet tall, appeared out of thin air behind him.

It has three heads and six arms, and its face is somewhat similar to Lu Yan's. Its entire body is covered with fine golden scales, and each scale has flowing lightning patterns.

The six arms are in various postures, some clenched into fists, some in palms, and some in hand seals, yet all exude a sense of earth-shattering power.

Most astonishingly, the Dharma image was surrounded by crimson-gold lightning, with arcs of electricity slithering between its scales like snakes, crackling and scorching the surrounding air until it was distorted and deformed.

As soon as the Dharma image appeared, an overwhelming sense of oppression swept across the entire venue.

Master Sifa's pupils constricted suddenly, and a storm raged in his heart.

This aura... he even felt that this Dharma form could easily crush him. This power was comparable to that of a level ten great demon.

He had cultivated in the Chaotic Star Sea for hundreds of years and considered himself to be very knowledgeable, but he had never heard of such a technique or such a Dharma form before.

"Fellow Daoist Lu... what kind of cultivation technique is this?" Master Sifa's voice was somewhat dry.

Lu Yan did not answer, but stared at the group of demonic beasts in front of him, a slight smile playing on his lips.

The beasts seemed to sense the danger. The Infant Carp Beast let out a low roar, and the Iron-Winged Roc circled in the air, but dared not swoop down rashly.

More than a dozen level-seven demonic beasts instinctively took a few steps back, and even the blue lightning from the mouths of the two infant carp beasts dimmed a bit.

The six arms of the Dharma Image behind Lu Yan moved in unison, and crimson-gold lightning condensed in his palms, transforming into six lightning spears, the tips of which pointed directly at the beast horde.

Master Sifa took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart, and waved his whisk, ready to stand guard.

The disciples of the Four Dharma Sect in the distance stared blankly at the golden Dharma image, forgetting even to run away.

Senior Brother Wang opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word. The young cultivator's eyes widened even more, and he murmured, "This...this..."

The golden dharma image behind Lu Yan moved its six arms in unison, hurling six golden lightning spears simultaneously. The spears pierced the sky, trailing long arcs of electricity, and precisely plunged into the horde of beasts.

boom!

Six bolts of lightning exploded simultaneously, golden lightning spreading across the sea surface and instantly engulfing more than a dozen level-seven demonic beasts.

As the lightning dissipated, more than a dozen charred corpses floated on the sea, not even having time to utter a scream.

The two baby carp beasts opened their huge mouths, and dozens of blue lightning balls spewed out, rushing towards Lu Yan.

The head in the center of the image suddenly opened its mouth and inhaled forcefully.

The blue lightning orbs seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, disappearing into the Dharma Image's mouth. The lightning on the Dharma Image's body brightened even more, as if it were eating with great satisfaction.

Upon seeing this, the two baby carp beasts' eyes flashed with fear, and they turned to flee into the deep sea.

A flash of lightning surrounded Fa Xiang, and he instantly teleported behind the Infant Carp Beast using a lightning escape technique.

Two arms reached out, and the large golden hands gripped the necks of the two infant carp beasts like iron clamps.

Click!

With two sharp cracks, the baby carp's neck was snapped.

Faxiang casually tossed the two corpses onto the sea, creating a huge splash.

Master Sifa opened his mouth wide, his throat was dry, and he couldn't utter a single word.

He had cultivated in the Chaotic Star Sea for hundreds of years and considered himself to be very knowledgeable, yet he had never heard of such a terrifying supernatural power. When did such a formidable figure emerge in the Chaotic Star Sea?

Lu Yan withdrew his Dharma form, waved his hand, and a demon core flew over. He casually tossed it to Four Dharma Masters: "Fellow Daoist Four Dharma Masters, here is the demon core you requested."

Master Sifa hurriedly caught it, and when he looked down at the demon core, he saw that it was of perfect quality and full of spiritual energy.

He swallowed hard and quickly cupped his hands, saying, "Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Lu! Your abilities are truly extraordinary; I am utterly impressed!"

The disciples of the Four Laws Sect behind him also surrounded him, their eyes filled with awe, and they cried out in unison, "Thank you so much for saving our lives, Senior! You are incredibly powerful, we admire you!"

Senior Brother Wang bowed deeply, his voice trembling: "I will never forget your great kindness and virtue, senior."

Lu Yan waved his hand, about to speak.

Suddenly, a black fog rose from the sea. The fog surged upward from underwater, quickly spreading and enveloping an area of ​​several hundred feet in radius.

A cold, damp smell with a strong, fishy stench wafted over.

From the black fog, a chubby, bald man emerged.

This man was short and stout, with bluish-gray skin and a bald head that gleamed oily in the sunlight.

He grinned, revealing a set of sharp teeth, and his small, beady eyes swept back and forth between Lu Yan and Master Sifa.

"A human Nascent Soul cultivator? You've got some skill." His voice was sharp and piercing. "Too bad I stumbled upon you. This is your death day."

He stood with his hands behind his back, his round belly protruding: "I, Qiu Wanhai, have come here on the orders of the Golden Flood Dragon King to search for a human. Since I've run into you, you can only blame your bad luck."

Master Sifa's pupils constricted sharply, and he blurted out, "Golden Dragon King? Are you going to break your agreement with the Star Palace?"

Qiu Wanhai sneered, revealing a set of sharp teeth: "If I kill you all, no one will know, right?"

He paused, his beady eyes narrowing into slits: "Besides, the Star Palace hasn't produced a Nascent Soul cultivator in years. Do you think we still care about its attitude?"

Master Sifa's face turned ashen, but he did not refute it.

Although the Star Palace nominally governs the chaotic star sea, it has indeed been declining in recent years.

If the demons of the outer seas are truly determined to break the agreement, the Star Palace may not be able to stop them.

Lu Yan looked down at the floating corpses of demonic beasts on the sea surface—more than a dozen level-seven demonic beasts and two infant carp beasts, all his spoils of war.

At this moment, the corpses were being soaked in black mist. The mist seeped into the wounds and into the gaps between the scales, and a foul stench mixed in with the mist, making people feel nauseous.

Lu Yan frowned and spoke.

"I'm telling you, this black mist of yours is smoking my spoils. I'll be skinning and extracting the bones from these monster corpses later, and you've ruined their smell. Are you going to compensate me?"

Qiu Wanhai was taken aback, not expecting the other party to focus on this.

Master Sifa's lips twitched. Is this the time to talk about this?

Qiu Wanhai's face darkened visibly: "What did you say?"

Lu Yan stood with his hands behind his back: "Alright, I'll give you a chance. If you commit suicide right now, I promise to let you reincarnate. How about that? Merciful enough?"
