401. Chapter 400: Scattering and Fleeing

Li Yi coughed up blood and was grabbed by Shan Yi, flying away quickly, away from the three unknown strong people. His body was almost cut into two halves, blood splashed, flesh turned up, and even the silver bones were split. The strength between them was simply not at the same level. As long as the other party was a little heavier, he would die on the spot.

"The other party's strength is definitely at the Spirit God Realm level, and I haven't encountered a cultivator in this realm in the Golden Academy..." He was very angry at this moment. The reason for his anger was not that he was defeated. It was normal for him to lose to the other party, but he watched Zhang Lei die in front of him just now, but he was powerless and couldn't do anything.

He didn't even have the qualification to die together.

"Damn it."

Li Yi was very unwilling. His martial artist's temperament made him unable to endure such things happening, just like when he watched the investigator Wang Wang Jian beaten to death in front of him.

But the severely injured body made him extremely weak at this moment.

A large amount of blood was lost. If he didn't treat it as soon as possible, he would even be in danger of his life.

Shan Yi brought Li Yi back to the vicinity of the building and handed him to Lin Yue.

Lin Yue's face changed when she saw this. She hurriedly covered Li Yi's wound, trying to stop the blood from flowing out, and said hurriedly: "Quick, use the Life Repair Cabin. Only the Life Repair Cabin can save such an injury. If the

The three unknown powerhouses who had crossed over had long since noticed Zhang Lei.

It was just that Zhang Lei was too weak for them, so they didn't take him seriously.

"It seems this city is just like this. I just scanned it with my spiritual sense; most people are ordinary, and although there are many practitioners, none of them amount to much. Only a few have cultivated a Primordial Spirit, but their strength is very weak, inferior to true Great Cultivators of the Primordial Spirit Realm. This should be because the methods they practice are different—cultivating the Primordial Spirit first and then nourishing it, practicing body and spirit together. Although the results are slow, it has the advantage of being steady and has some merits."

The one speaking was the old man with a sinister gaze and a short beard. He glanced at Zhang Lei: "There's nothing to discuss with people like this. If you want to obtain information, it's better to be direct—let's perform soul-searching. It will also avoid being deceived; otherwise, obtaining some incorrect information could easily lead to big problems."

"Then let's perform soul-searching," the middle-aged woman in palace attire beside him said with a calm gaze.

The other young man in white remained cold and silent, evidently tacitly approving of this behavior.

Afterward.

The old man with the sinister gaze extended a palm as delicate as an infant's, and purple light surged upon it, like a mass of misty energy brewing.

Seeing this scene.

Zhang Lei's soul issued a frantic warning; he smelled terrifying danger.

"Not good, the other party is going to make a move on me; they are enemies, not friends."

After realizing this, he immediately abandoned the idea of communicating and turned to prepare to flee.

"It's too late to leave now. Since you've delivered yourself to our door, then stay." The old man grabbed through the air, and that misty purple light instantly erupted, instantly enveloping Zhang Lei's body.

After being struck by this purple light, Zhang Lei suffered no physical harm, but a phantom figure was forcibly dragged out of his body by the purple light.

That was Zhang Lei's soul.

Although Zhang Lei's soul struggled desperately, attempting to escape, it was bound by the purple light and was powerless.

"Ah!"

Subsequently, Zhang Lei's soul let out a painful cry, and cracks appeared on the soul, as if at this moment he was suffering immense torture and enduring tremendous pain.

The art of soul-searching is inherently overbearing and ruthless; while extracting the soul's memories, it also destroys the soul.

"Stop."

However, at this moment, a roar and shout from Li Yi erupted. He flew over holding a magic sword, silver radiance flickering around his body, and Qi condensed into a steel blade that instantly hacked over.

"I misjudged. I thought he was just an ordinary practitioner, but I didn't expect him to possess an extraordinary bloodline. That bloodline aura is unusual... Sure enough, even a barren land can nurture a few pearls." The woman in palace attire beside him gave a light exclamation upon seeing this. She hesitated for a moment and did not deal a lethal blow to Li Yi; after all, if someone with a special bloodline dies, the ancestors within their clan will feel it.

Being new here, she didn't want to provoke unknown, powerful enemies.

Therefore, the woman in palace attire simply pulled the hairpin from her hair and waved it casually.

A straight beam of golden light instantly shot into the sky, dazzling and eye-catching. After this golden light appeared, the red magic sword in Li Yi's hand instantly snapped into two, and even his body was struck. His powerful physique was now as fragile as paper, easily torn open with a hideous gash. Blood sprayed, and he revealed an expression of disbelief, falling powerlessly from mid-air.

It was just a casual strike.

Li Yi, a practitioner capable of rivaling the Spirit Power Realm, was defeated just like that.

"You didn't see wrong; it really is a special bloodline. Even the blood is glowing with silver light."

The man in white waved through the air, and a wisp of blood flew out. He looked at it carefully and saw silver specks within the blood, as brilliant as the Milky Way; even when mixed in the blood, it was clearly visible.

"And this bloodline level is very high, not inferior to disciples of the Immortal Clan. It's better to throw this person further away; don't invite trouble. Even if he is to die, he cannot die at our hands."

As he spoke, the man in white waved his large sleeve.

Violent winds roared around them, buildings were uprooted, and abandoned structures were swept into the air.

Li Yi, who hadn't yet landed, was struck by the gale and immediately sent flying.

In the face of such strength, he could do nothing; even surviving was only because the other party feared the divine bloodline and thus did not deal a lethal blow.

If they knew that the gods had already fallen and that Li Yi had no ancestors behind him—that he was all alone—he definitely wouldn't have survived.

Amidst the gale.

A cry echoed, and Shanyi flapped its wings and arrived, grabbing the defeated Li Yi before retreating rapidly.

"A spirit pet? And an extraordinary one at that. Its potential is immense. If cultivated carefully, it will definitely be able to easily pass the lightning tribulation in the future and become a foundation for the sect."

The few people glanced at Shanyi, some with a hint of greed, but they quickly suppressed this greed.

A practitioner who possesses a special bloodline and keeps such a spirit pet definitely isn't simple. There was no need to invite a fatal disaster for the sake of immediate gain.

But Zhang Lei was not so lucky.

Accompanied by the final miserable cry echoing.

Zhang Lei's soul shattered abruptly, and subsequently, these fragments of the soul, carrying various memories, were absorbed by the sinister old man.

And after losing his soul, Zhang Lei's body fell powerlessly to the ground, becoming a "Silent One." If he weren't put into a medical pod as soon as possible, his body would soon die.

But now, even if he were put into a medical pod, it would be useless; Zhang Lei's soul had already been destroyed and could not be resurrected.

"Tian Xuzi, how is this world?" the woman in palace attire beside him asked.

The old man named Tian Xuzi closed his eyes for a moment before opening them, revealing a look of surprise: "Good, very good. This world has just experienced the Age of Dharma Decline, spiritual energy is recovering, and the path of cultivation has only been open for less than ten years. There are very few practitioners, their strength is weak, and heaven-tilting events occur from time to time. Taking this opportunity, we can open the boundary gate and head to the Great Thousand Worlds."

"Opportunity, this is indeed our opportunity. I want to build a teleportation array here, send over sect disciples, and rebuild the sect."

As he spoke, he shook his sleeve, and brilliant crystals flew out. Those crystals had runes sealed within them, and when arranged one by one, they possessed a certain special ability.

"Since that's the case, I will also build a teleportation array. Sharing joy is better than enjoying it alone. In such a treasure land, I must also get a share." Seeing this, the woman in palace attire couldn't wait. Many crystals appeared out of thin air beside her, and just like the old man named Tian Xuzi, she wanted to build a teleportation array in Tianchang City to stabilize the cross-boundary route.

This way, there would be no need to worry about the cross-boundary point suddenly disappearing one day.

"Boom!"

However, at this moment, a beam of light suddenly struck, its power not insignificant.

But these three people reacted instantly. Three feet away, flowing light circulated, forming a protective shield that blocked the attack.

A Thunder fighter jet that had originally disappeared flew over from one end of the sky at some point, unleashing a charged attack.

It was just that this strike seemed to have little effect, merely interrupting the other party's spellcasting without causing any impact.

"The power is not bad. Is this the weapon of this world? It's a pity that this time, I have crossed over personally. There are very few in this world who can stop me. It's better not to make this futile struggle. Let me build the teleportation array properly; when my Heavenly Soul Sect is rebuilt, you will also be credited with a meritorious deed."

Tian Xuzi raised his gaze, and a gray gleam flew out, like a precious sword, instantly tearing through the sky and piercing everything in front; nothing could stop it.

Even a Thunder fighter jet, if struck by this, would immediately crash and be unable to resist at all.

However, at this moment.

A figure rushed out of the fighter jet a step ahead, colliding head-on with that sharp gleam.

Boom!

Powerful energy surged, the surrounding building ruins instantly shattered, and the collapsed skyscraper was uprooted. Just the diffusion of this residual power destroyed an entire old residential complex in the city.

If such a powerhouse were to fight and cast spells without restraint, they could definitely destroy a city easily.

"Hmm?"

However, Tian Xuzi frowned deeply, his expression becoming solemn. Not only him, but even the woman in palace attire and the man in white beside him all attached importance to it.

Just now, if they hadn't seen wrong.

Someone had rushed out of the fighter jet in advance and used their body to resist Tian Xuzi's strike in mid-air?

If the other party wasn't seeking death, it meant that Tian Xuzi's attack had likely been blocked.

"There are still experts?"

This thought popped into their minds.

But now energy was surging, and they couldn't check with their spiritual sense, otherwise, their spiritual sense would be damaged and affect themselves.
