I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Lin Yi felt very embarrassed that he was being suppressed and beaten despite his advanced cultivation level.

If we are already no match for a Daoist with 15,000 years of cultivation today, how will we face more challenges in the future?

Once the pearl was in Lin Yi's hand, it quickly grew larger, eventually reaching the size of Lin Yi's palm.

Such a large pearl is more than enough to hit someone.

Lin Yi picked it up and held it for a while before forcefully smashing it towards the Purple Daoist in the center of the Water Giant.

Zi Daoren was now unable to move. The water giant was trapped by the three foxes, while he was trapped by the water giant. It seemed that he could only endure this blow.

But he was extraordinary after all. Faced with the crisis, he smiled calmly, and suddenly a purple light flashed in the originally light blue water giant.

Immediately afterwards, the water giant that had been observed suddenly turned pale blue, as if flames were dancing.

The water giant has now become a fire giant!

It is common knowledge that water and fire are incompatible, but this Taoist priest Zi Daoren accomplished the transformation of water and fire.

The fire fox and the water giant were entangled with each other, but when faced with the blue giant who was also made of fire, they merged into it and became part of the fire, so they could no longer restrict the fire giant's movements.

Just then, Lin Yi's precious pearl struck, but Zi Daoren easily dodged it and leaped onto the dome, still outside the water prison formation.

Lin Yi's precious pearl slammed into the ground, causing the ground to tremble and leaving a deep, bottomless crater, demonstrating the power of Lin Yi's attack.

An attack that doesn't hit the target is useless.

The Purple Daoist made no further moves, but merely chuckled and said, "How could a crude and foolish man like you know the wondrous arts of immortals? You are nothing but brute strength. I have no desire to entangle myself with you. Hand over that fox demon and leave, lest you waste your life!"

This mockery really made Lin Yi's blood pressure rise; the feeling of showing off and being shown off are completely different.

Lin Yi also felt that he was being shown up a lot lately.

In the past, when he lacked experience, he always outshone others; now that he is powerful, he is always the one being outshone.

Lin Yi reflected deeply and realized that he felt his strong muscles had made him stupid.

But upon closer reflection, this might be related to the sealing of spiritual energy?

The moment this idea came to mind, it enlightened Lin Yi.

That's right. He didn't feel anything when his spiritual essence was sealed, but in fact, he really did become stupid.

Indeed, in this world, there are gains and losses. Sealing one's spiritual essence can prevent the backlash from heaven and earth, but it also has drawbacks, namely, turning oneself into a reckless fool.

Having figured out the key points, Lin Yi felt his blood pressure gradually decrease, and his clever mind regained its dominance.

"I understand."

Lin Yi slowly uttered three words, which immediately made Zi Daoren feel uneasy.

A crude and uncouth warrior is not to be feared, but a warrior who uses his brain is extremely dangerous.

"What do you understand?"

Zi Daoren pondered to himself that although his cultivation was still a bit low, his realm was far higher than that of ordinary people. If he could discuss the Dao with Lin Yi, he would surely be able to shatter Lin Yi's Dao heart.

"You are skilled in the Way of Water."

"Obviously."

"You are also skilled in the Way of Fire."

"That's true, but do you really need to comprehend such a superficial view?"

Zi Daoren seized the opportunity to launch a taunt, but Lin Yi said confidently, "What you are truly good at is lightning."

Purple Daoist: "..."

How did this person know?!

He was always careful in his dealings with people and never revealed his background. How could Lin Yi know that he was skilled in lightning rather than water and fire?

Though inwardly terrified, the Purple Daoist remained outwardly calm and asked, "How do you know?"

Little did he know that Lin Yi had received nine years of compulsory education.

Water electrolysis produces hydrogen and oxygen. Hydrogen can be burned to produce water.

The combustion of hydrogen produces a pale blue flame, and Lin Yi, recalling the faint purple light he had seen earlier, could no longer misunderstand.

The ability to freely switch between water and fire sounds terrifying, making people think that this person possesses profound and mysterious magical powers, reaching a terrifying realm. But in reality, it's just that simple.

His insights were indeed profound, far surpassing those of ordinary cultivators, but not to such an extraordinary degree. In the end, he was merely utilizing the rules.

Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "If you master math, physics, and chemistry, you can go anywhere in the world without fear."

And so, I've transmigrated to a world of fantasy and martial arts, and my chemistry knowledge has come in handy.

"Whether I'm wrong or not, you know in your heart. It's just some magic tricks. Does it deserve the name of immortal arts?"

Taunting isn't Zi Daoren's forte; Lin Yi used to be a master of verbal sparring too!

Zi Daoren was indeed furious. This person actually dared to mock his immortal techniques. This was intolerable!

"Since you wish to witness the power of immortal arts, I will grant your wish!"

"You're getting anxious, you're getting anxious."

With a casual wave of his hand, Lin Yi sent the Ruyi Pearl flying out from the ground and back into his hand.

This is a great treasure; three wisps of foxfire are also good fire.

Since the Purple Daoist was enraged, he would naturally use ruthless methods. Lin Yi did not dare to be too careless and prepared to take this move seriously.

Sure enough, when the Purple Daoist pointed to the sky, thunder roared and purple energy rippled within. Lin Yi knew that this was going to be a fierce attack, so he quickly gathered his foxfire and made the three foxfires merge into one, hovering over the Ruyi Pearl.

Lin Yi didn't think about defense; he only focused on offense. He was strong enough to break through even the opponent's attacks.

Thunder rumbled in the sky here, and flames raged over there.

Just as a fierce battle between heaven and earth was about to begin, the Purple Daoist transformed into lightning and merged into the dark clouds.

Could this be a more profound application of immortal techniques?

Lin Yi still dared not underestimate it, but then he saw a torrential downpour. The water giant was originally formed from the entire Ying River, so it was natural for it to return to the Ying River now.

Lin Yi took the downpour as a prelude to his attack and, without waiting any longer, mixed the foxfire with the precious pearl and threw it into the dark clouds.

This punched a huge hole in the dark clouds, allowing the sunlight to pour through, and there was no longer any Purple Taoist inside.

This Purple Taoist clearly escaped using the dark clouds; all that was said was loud thunder and heavy rain, but he himself vanished without a trace.

That's really a brilliant tactic; Lin Yi was speechless.

Are even the gods and immortals of this world this cowardly?

Lin Yi began to suspect that the overall moral standards of this world had been dragged down by certain individuals.

Zi Daoren ran very fast; Lin Yi's minimap showed that he had already left Yuzhou and returned to Jiangzhou.

He ran so fast that Lin Yi couldn't catch him, so he simply stopped chasing.

Lin Yi's gaze fell on Zhang Chengye, his eyes filled with amusement.

"It seems your master has run away. Why don't you try running away too?"

Zhang Chengye: "..."

At that moment, he experienced the fear of being controlled by others once again.

Lin Yi is still in his giant form; he could crush him with a single wave of his hand, and he definitely couldn't outrun him.

Zhang Chengye found himself in an extremely awkward situation. He felt ashamed to surrender, but he couldn't bear to give up his life if he didn't.

He didn't even dare to say anything tough, fearing that Lin Yi might kill him in a fit of anger.

"You didn't run when I told you to, are you prepared to die?"

"If I were to run, could I escape the Venerable One's grasp?"

"Of course not."

Lin Yi raised his foot to stomp on Zhang Chengye, who knew he couldn't dodge and could only close his eyes and wait for death.

But Lin Yi's kick didn't land; it just hovered above Zhang Chengye's head as he said, "Is there anything you want to say to me? If the information you give is enough to save your life, I don't necessarily have to kill you."

Lin Yi held back because he considered that the other party was a member of the orthodox Taoist sect.

He may not be a good person, but he certainly hasn't done anything wrong. If he's willing to repent, Lin Yi might be willing to let him go.

It all depends on whether his awareness is sufficient.

But Zhang Chengye remained unmoved by Lin Yi's words.

"If you kill me now, my soul can be reincarnated and reborn. But if I say something I shouldn't, I will be annihilated, body and soul. You might as well do it!"

Zhang Chengye remained clear-headed and did not betray Zi Daoren out of fear.

Lin Yi, however, became more curious; the more afraid he was, the bigger the secret must be.

The other party was clearly afraid of death, and Lin Yi wanted to coerce him, so he started from this angle.

"Do you really think you won't be completely destroyed in my hands?"

Lin Yi truly didn't know how to completely destroy someone's body and soul. Even if he killed someone and reduced their bones to ashes, a wisp of their true spirit would still reach the underworld.

But Zhang Chengye was unaware that hearing Lin Yi say this made him feel a pang of regret.

He shouldn't have said that. Originally, Lin Yi might have just killed him and that would have been the end of it, but now that he's not cooperating, Lin Yi definitely won't let him off easily.

However, after careful consideration, the consequences of offending Master Zi are far more serious than those of offending Lin Yi.

No matter how powerful Lin Yi is, he is just one person, while Zi Daoren represents a group.

Lin Yi may be able to force Zi Daoren away today, but he will probably still fall into Zi Daoren's hands in the future.

"Give up, I won't say anything."

Zhang Chengye had a better understanding of the situation, and a more resolute courage to face life and death with equanimity.

"Why are you so insistent? I think the most important thing in life is to take care of yourself. If you don't tell me the secret, you will only face the worst outcome."

But if you betray us, there is still a glimmer of hope.

What if I can beat them? Think about it carefully!

After persuading Zhang Chengye to surrender, Lin Yi patiently waited for Zhang Chengye's response.
