My Perfect Immortal Cultivation Life

"You are Li Yu?"

"Huh? What are you doing?"

Wei Lei rushed over, his breathing already somewhat disordered.

Then he saw a scene he had never imagined: this ordinary-looking disciple, with ordinary strength, was actually squatting inside a hollow of an ancient tree. Beside him, ripples belonging to the secret realm spread out in concentric circles.

He was actually breaking the entrance formation to the secret realm!

Wei Lei laughed in exasperation: "I've come to find this secret realm thirteen times already, and I've never been able to find it. Who would have thought that you, a greenhorn, would find it?"

If you know what's good for you, you'd better get out of there quickly, and I might consider not torturing you and leaving you with a complete corpse.

Li Yu was speechless.

The visitor is, after all, a disciple of the Dao Yi Sect, a reputable and righteous immortal family. How can he speak so wildly from the start? Should he chuckle a few more times?

Li Yu looked behind the man but did not see Yi Hu.

Seeing that Li Yu didn't move, Wei Lei laughed contemptuously: "Scared out? Well, that makes sense. You're just a novice disciple, you probably haven't even mastered the Qi Refining Technique yet, right? Facing a powerhouse like me who has reached the peak of the First Realm, everything you do is in vain. Besides, this is deep in the dense forest, even if you scream your lungs out, no one will come to save you."

"You can only blame your own good luck for stumbling upon the secret realm I've been looking for..."

Li Yu did not respond.

Because villains usually die from talking too much.

A fireball the size of a fist suddenly appeared from Li Yu's sleeve. It hurtled straight at Wei Lei, who couldn't dodge in time and could only barely turn to the side. A large portion of his long black hair was struck by the fireball and immediately burst into flames.

Wei Lei was furious, and his hair was on fire.

"You bastard!"

He rolled on the ground, barely managing to extinguish the flames. At that moment, the hair on the back of his head had turned into short, charred, and curly hair.

Fireball formation.

One of the three formations that Li Yu learned on the second day of his apprenticeship.

It has moderate power, but its advantage is that it doesn't consume much of one's own spiritual power. As long as there are enough spirit stones for setting up the array, it can be released continuously.

The core of the fireball array was hidden in Li Yu's sleeve, worth 70 contribution points and a ninth-grade Xuan level. Releasing this fireball array burned 12 spirit stones from his Qiankun bag, worth 30 contribution points.

Wei Lei, being an inner disciple, quickly calmed down.

"Aren't you a beginner? How can you unleash such powerful magic?"

Instead of Li Yu's words, he was met with another fireball.

Consumes 30 contribution points.

"You're a formation master!" Wei Lei, having already reached the peak of the first realm, possessed basic knowledge. He mobilized all his qi and blood, producing muffled thuds with each heartbeat. His speed increased by at least fifty percent.

If he is prepared, fireball poses no threat to him.

He pulled his black longsword from his storage bag and slashed down in an instant. The swordsmanship of body cultivators differs from that of sword cultivators. Body cultivators primarily cultivate their own bodies, with the sword being an extension of that body. Sword cultivators, on the other hand, focus on spiritual swords, capable of decapitating enemies from a distance.

Li Yu remained calm, and his white Taoist robe began to glow.

There is an array on each of the legs and the torso.

Wind Spirit Array, slightly increases speed. Array Core Grade 9, Profound Level, 40 Contribution Points. Each use costs 15 Spirit Stones. Li Yu has set up three Wind Spirit Arrays, consuming a total of 135 Spirit Stones.

With the support of the three wind spirit arrays, Li Yu's speed was no slower than that of a body cultivator at the first stage of perfection. No matter how Wei Lei used his swordsmanship and movement techniques, he could not touch Li Yu's sleeve.

Wei Lei sneered, "I didn't realize you were so rich. You've spent spirit stones like they're free in just a few breaths. But how long can you array masters last? Are you trying to outlast us body cultivators?"

Li Yu remained silent, continuing to dodge Wei Lei's swordsmanship using the Wind Spirit Array while simultaneously pulling out fireballs from his sleeve.

His own spirit stones were also being consumed rapidly. By now, he had already used up spirit stones worth 225 contribution points.

And the battle unfolded exactly as Wei Lei had predicted.

The effect of the Wind Spirit Array gradually weakened, and Wei Lei's sword almost grazed Li Yu's scalp several times.

Wei Lei: "You're just a novice disciple. I don't know how you managed to unleash a first-stage perfected array, but you're doomed! Today I'll show you why array masters are 100% crushing when facing body cultivators!"

"Now!"

Wei Lei seized the opportunity when the wind spirit array on Li Yu's body failed, mobilized all his blood and qi into his sword, and thrust it forward relentlessly towards Li Yu.

Even a second-stage array master wouldn't dare to take this attack head-on. Li Yu has absolutely no chance of surviving this sword strike. Even if he were to temporarily cast a first-stage perfect defensive array, it wouldn't be effective!

Li Yu finally smiled.

Right now.

He had been locked in a stalemate with this man for so long, waiting for an opportunity. The opponent's strongest attack would also be the moment when his defense was at its weakest.

Li Yu shouted, "Turtle Shell Formation!"

This sound, as expected, made Wei Lei laugh mockingly. So, it really is a defensive formation? Nothing new.

At the same time, Li Yu silently chanted in his mind, "Lightning Summoning Formation!"

A bolt of lightning, as thick as an arm, struck Wei Lei squarely in the back with unstoppable force and crackling electric sparks!

Wei Lei never expected that Li Yu had such a deadly move hidden. A violent surge of lightning power instantly swept up his back and swept through his entire body. His meridians felt like they were being burned by raging fire, and a tingling, intense pain instantly spread through his limbs and bones.

If he had the protective power of his vital energy, this attack wouldn't have caused such massive damage. The key issue is that he had already consumed a significant amount of his vital energy, and had also channeled the remaining energy into his sword. This reduced his own defense to a minimum.

This is Li Yu's lightning-attracting array.

Using a Rank 9 Profound-level array core costs 50 contribution points. Releasing it once also requires 50 contribution points worth of spirit stones.

But that's not the most expensive part. What troubles Li Yu the most is that the core of this lightning-attracting array is a one-time use device. Each time it's used, the core is destroyed. In other words, releasing the lightning-attracting array once costs 100 contribution points.

Li Yu looked at the Qiankun bag on Wei Lei's body and prayed inwardly: You must be a rich man, so that I can kill you and get your Qiankun bag to heal myself.

Of course, Wei Lei has not lost his fighting ability.

Despite the stiffness caused by the lightning, he continued to pounce on Li Yu. However, his entire body was now charred black by the lightning, his face twisted and ferocious, making him look like a monster.

"You...you think you can kill me? I'll kill you!"

Wei Lei swung his sword forward.

In his opinion, even Li Yu couldn't release such a powerful formation a second time.

He was met with a second lightning strike.

A third lightning strike followed.

The fourth course...
