Chapter 222 Thunder Magic Exorcises Demons (Second Update)

Therefore, it was obvious that Li Qingfeng, who was new to the world and had a strong sense of justice, would not return to the mountain so easily.

Whether it was out of a desire to avenge his family or out of a righteous heart to eliminate evil and protect the righteous path, he had to find the murderer to prevent him from causing trouble again.

After some searching, he did indeed find the demonic cultivator who had massacred the village.

Unfortunately, although Li Qingfeng was righteous and had extremely high talent for cultivation, he had only been cultivating for twelve years and was in a small, relatively unknown sect, so he didn't have much combat experience.

In the end, not only did he lose, but he was also ambushed on the back of the head by the opponent's nail-shaped magic weapon and lost his life.

In reality, that demonic cultivator wasn't a particularly powerful figure. A demonic cultivator who slaughtered ordinary villagers to cultivate could hardly have a high level of cultivation. True demonic cultivators all used righteous cultivators as models for their own cultivation.

In his memory, when Li Qingfeng and that demonic cultivator started their battle, they were evenly matched, or rather, Li Qingfeng had a slight advantage. His magic weapon, the Crimson Spirit Fire Pearl, was personally passed down by his master, Daoist Qingzhu.

Unexpectedly, during the battle, while the demonic cultivator used the Blood Fiend Banner to defend himself, he also disregarded morality and secretly used a Blood Nail to launch a sneak attack from behind.

"Since I've used your identity, I'll take care of your revenge while I'm at it."

Having sorted through all the input memories, Li Chuan immediately decided to avenge Li Qingfeng by killing that demonic cultivator.

The main problem is that even if he doesn't attack that demonic cultivator, the demonic cultivator will still attack him, because after killing Li Qingfeng, the demonic cultivator didn't go far. Instead, he was refining Li Qingfeng's magic weapon, the Crimson Spirit Fire Pearl, in front of him.

Perhaps after refining the Crimson Spirit Fire Pearl, they will also refine Li Qingfeng's physical body, which is him now.

"You're still alive!"

The handsome demonic cultivator, dressed in black, noticed the commotion on Li Chuan's side and immediately stopped refining the Crimson Spirit Fire Pearl, revealing a look of surprise.

He clearly saw that his magic weapon, the Blood Nail, had pierced through the other party's skull and destroyed his soul, so how could he be alive again?

But then he immediately chuckled:

"As expected of a disciple of the righteous path, you even possess a magical artifact that can take your place in death. It seems you come from a major sect and have a good master. It's a real pity to give it to you, since you're about to die again!"

A substitute-death magic weapon—he had only ever heard of such a thing in rumors. He never expected that this mediocre righteous disciple would possess one, but using it would be a waste.

Previously, his opponent had a magical artifact that allowed him to fight, but now that the artifact is in his hands, he is even less likely to be a match for him.

"It's hard to say who will die."

Li Chuan shrugged.

Based on the strength that this demonic cultivator had demonstrated in his memory, Li Qingfeng felt that dealing with him wouldn't be a problem.

The cultivation realms in this world are mainly divided into Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul/Spiritual Being (Loose Immortal), Earth Immortal, and Celestial Immortal.

Foundation Building involves absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the dantian and cultivating one's own true essence. This is the Foundation Building Realm, which is the realm of most cultivators in the cultivation world. Many cultivators remain at this realm for their entire lives.

The demonic cultivator in front of us and Li Qingfeng both belong to this realm.

Breaking through the Foundation Establishment stage and condensing true essence into a pill is the Core Formation realm. This is already the realm of the leaders of some small sects. Li Qingyuan's master, Qingzhu Zhenren of Xiaozhu Mountain, is at the Core Formation realm.

After the Core Formation Realm comes the Nascent Soul or the Primordial Spirit. The Nascent Soul and the Primordial Spirit belong to the same realm, but their cultivation directions are different. The Primordial Spirit is more focused on the soul, while the Nascent Soul is more focused on true essence and magical power.

The difference lies in the fact that cultivators in the Yuan Shen realm have stronger souls, while those in the Yuan Ying realm possess more profound magical power. This mainly depends on which aspect their cultivation method leans towards.

In this world, cultivators who reach this level can generally be called wandering immortals.

Next comes the Forty-Nine Heavenly Tribulation. Those who can overcome the Forty-Nine Heavenly Tribulation become Earth Immortals. Earth Immortals are basically the pinnacle of existence in this world. At this point, the Desire Tribulation has been passed, and only the Emotion Tribulation remains.

But after overcoming the trials of love, one can transform from an earthly immortal into a celestial immortal, and thus ascend to the upper realm.

If you feel you can't overcome the trials of love, or if you encounter calamity and die while trying to overcome them, then you can only reincarnate and start over.

This world allows for reincarnation. Many cultivators who eventually transcend tribulations and ascend to become celestial immortals have actually reincarnated more than ten times before succeeding.

As for the so-called emotional entanglements, they don't just refer to romantic love, but to all the emotions a person experiences in their life, including family affection, friendship, regrets about something, and longing for someone.

Li Qingfeng had no memory of the specifics of how to cross over; his cultivation level was too low, and it was his master, Daoist Qingzhu, who had taught him all of this.

Of course, realm does not completely represent combat power. Cultivation techniques, spells, and magical treasures all affect the outcome of battles. It is common for disciples of major sects to defeat enemies across realms.

"How dare you boast! Watch as I refine your flesh and blood into my Blood Fiend Banner!"

Upon hearing this, the demonic cultivator let out a cold snort, opened his mouth, and a blood banner filled with black baleful energy flew out, growing to a size of more than ten meters before rolling towards Li Chuan.

The black aura looked extremely corrosive; if an ordinary person were caught in it, they would probably turn into blood and be absorbed by the blood banner in no time.

Although Li Chuan possessed a powerful physique and extraordinary healing abilities, he wouldn't risk his health. He quickly formed hand seals:

"Lightning Release: False Darkness!"

A lightning-struck spear flew from his hand, heading straight for the incoming blood banner.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the blood banner was struck by lightning and sent flying back, and half of the black malevolent energy instantly disappeared.

"Thunder Magic!"

Upon seeing that Li Chuan had actually used lightning magic, which was the most effective counter to his type of magic weapon, the demonic cultivator's expression immediately changed.

He couldn't understand why the other party, who knew lightning magic, hadn't used it in the previous battle.

"It seems that the Lightning Release technique is indeed quite effective."

Upon seeing the appearance of the demonic cultivator, Li Chuan immediately realized that his lightning escape technique, like the lightning magic of this world, was quite effective against demonic cultivators.

"In that case, let's finish this sooner rather than later!"

Li Chuan forms hand seals:

"Shadow Clone Technique".

Create twenty shadow clones, then simultaneously form hand seals again:

"Lightning Release: False Darkness!"

In an instant, twenty-one lightning spears shot towards the demonic cultivator in front.

Demonic cultivators are known for their many methods. Having just arrived in this world, and to avoid any unforeseen complications or situations beyond his control, he didn't intend to waste time or waste words. He wanted to eliminate his opponent as quickly as possible.

"How is that possible!"

Seeing Li Chuan use his rare clone technique again and then instantly unleash twenty-one lightning spells, the demonic cultivator's expression changed drastically.

He hurriedly deployed his magical treasures, the Blood Fiend Banner, the Blood Nails, and the Crimson Spirit Fire Pearl he had just refined, in front of him to form a defensive barrier, attempting to block this terrifying attack.

"boom!"

An explosion dozens of times louder than before rang out. When the lightning dissipated, only three magical artifacts that had been knocked down remained where the demonic cultivator had been, while the demonic cultivator's figure had vanished without a trace.
