Chapter 456

460. Chapter 459: Settling Scores

No one had expected that the Golden Academy, which was calm a moment ago, would be filled with war and constant killing at this moment. The contradictions accumulated between the Golden Academy and these people from the Profound Immortal Continent during this period were too great. Li Yi's encounter was just a microcosm; most people had been bullied by these immortal cultivators.

Although they didn't take lives in the name of friendship, they had plundered countless treasures and opportunities from people during this period.

Now that the Old Daoist Wu had appeared and broken the balance of strength between the two sides, in this situation, Vice-Principal Sun Sun Boxiu naturally chose to go to war without hesitation. Otherwise, after the other side squeezed out all the good things and figured out their foundation, the Golden Academy would truly be finished.

If they could keep all these people here today, the people of the Profound Immortal Continent would instead feel wary.

At this moment, cannons roared, energy beams flew, and the scene was chaotic to the extreme.

But in this chaotic slaughter, the six Soul Transformation powerhouses joined forces at this moment, wanting to open the teleportation array and invite Mahayana powerhouses to cross the boundary for a fight. As long as Wu Yong was slain, everything would be solved.

"Fellow Daoist Wu, kill those Soul Transformation immortal cultivators, keep the teleportation array, and see if the other side's experts dare to cross the boundary." At this moment, Cang Cang Erzi, hidden in the clouds, transmitted his voice, stating his thoughts: "And you must not destroy the teleportation array."

"Why is that?" The Old Daoist Wu's expression shifted, somewhat not understanding.

Cang Cang Erzi's voice was calm: "How long does it take for experts like us to kill Soul Transformation immortal cultivators?"

"One breath is enough." The Old Daoist Wu said.

"The other side also thinks so. If we kill the Soul Transformation experts quickly and destroy the teleportation array, it undoubtedly tells the other side that we are wary of them crossing the boundary. Conversely, keeping the teleportation array, the other side will instead not dare to come. Even if they truly come, they will only send one person to test the waters, which is not worth worrying about." Cang Cang Erzi said: "Only by being both real and fake can we deter strong enemies. After all, our strength has not yet completely recovered, so we cannot take risks. After my strength recovers, I will take the time to go to the Profound Immortal Continent and slay an immortal to see how strong the other side is."

"So that's it." The Old Daoist Wu understood now.

Sure enough, ginger is still old and spicy. He had only thought about killing the Soul Transformation experts quickly and destroying the teleportation array just now, but hadn't thought of this level.

To ensure foolproofness, the Old Daoist Wu had a bronze furnace in his hand at this moment.

This was the treasure of the Daoist Treasure Sect, the Heaven and Earth Furnace.

Originally, this Daoist treasure had been severely damaged, but after several days of nourishment and repair, it had recovered some of its power. Although it couldn't compare to its peak, it was definitely no problem to use it to kill a few Soul Transformation cultivators.

"Go."

The Old Daoist Wu's primordial spirit flower shone, and this bronze furnace transformed into a spark of starlight, heading straight for the six Soul Transformation immortal cultivators.

"What is that?"

These few Soul Transformation experts sensed a terrifying crisis approaching. Their spiritual sense swept over, only to find it was an old, damaged bronze furnace. The furnace flew over fiercely, igniting sparks of fire. It didn't look very powerful, and even with a slight force, this furnace could potentially shatter.

However, this strike arrived, and all six Soul Transformation experts were horrified.

Just by colliding, their defensive magic treasures shattered in response. Under the illumination of those sparks, their bodies dissolved in an instant. Without even time to react, these Soul Transformation experts guarding the teleportation array were all extinguished, leaving not even a bone behind.

And the Old Daoist Wu controlled this power very well, not damaging the teleportation array.

"How could it be..." The Grand Immortal Elder saw this scene and was scared to the point of his primordial spirit almost leaving his body.

A full six Soul Transformation experts, and they even used magic treasures, yet they were all dissolved in one strike? This was too scary.

The Old Daoist Wu glanced over and finally landed on the Grand Immortal Elder: "You are the most treacherous, plotting against others every day. But considering you are somewhat useful, I will spare your life for now. However, you must hand over your immortal cultivation methods and all your family wealth. If you hide even a little, you know the consequences."

"I dare not, I absolutely dare not."

The Grand Immortal Elder was sweating profusely at this moment. He hurriedly took out a spirit stone, made it into a jade slip, and then used his spiritual sense to record all the immortal cultivation methods he knew.

Then he presented the jade slip along with his storage magic treasure with both hands.

The Old Daoist Wu waved his hand from a distance, and the two items fell into his hand. He picked up the jade slip to check. It was indeed a genuine immortal cultivation method. The Grand Immortal Elder mainly cultivated the "Nine Turns Immortal Method," corresponding to the nine major realms of immortal cultivation, one realm per turn. But the "Nine Turns Immortal Method" was incomplete; it only had six turns, which could cultivate to the Tribulation Crossing stage.

But this was also normal.

An immortal cultivator in the Soul Transformation stage having more than half of an immortal method was already not bad. If one wanted a complete inheritance, one would definitely have to get it from a large sect; no one would carry an inheritance with them and swagger through the streets.

"Senior, can you spare my life?" The Grand Immortal Elder asked cautiously at this moment.

"No." The Old Daoist Wu finished speaking and flicked his Daoist robe.

Five-colored brilliance shrouded over.

The Grand Immortal Elder's pupils suddenly constricted, but it was too late. With his strength, how could he escape in front of the Old Daoist Wu in the Three Flower Realm?

As the five-colored brilliance swept past.

The Grand Immortal Elder's body was immediately dissolved by this five-element light. Accompanied by a miserable shriek, his primordial spirit also couldn't withstand the five-element rotation and heaven-and-earth refining, and vanished into smoke in an instant. He truly died completely, leaving not even a trace behind.

All calculations could not withstand a strike from an expert.

After the Old Daoist Wu recorded the contents of the jade slip, he threw it out and sent it to Xuan Yuezi and Cang Cang Erzi for them to read one by one.

"Immortal cultivation method? Not bad, it does have its merits, but it is incomplete and useless to us." Cang Cang Erzi commented: "This thing can be given to the Golden Academy as a foundation."

Xuan Yuezi finished reading and also said: "If we can get a complete immortal inheritance, we can try to cultivate it together. Old Daoist Wu, the Soul Transformation and Nascent Soul experts on the other side are all dead, so there is no need to act again. Li Yi is also in no danger. Now we only need to watch this teleportation array. If the other side dares to teleport across the boundary, capture them directly."

The Old Daoist Wu nodded in agreement.

At this moment, the teleportation array was already flashing with light and was in an activated state, but no experts had crossed the boundary.

Because at this moment, in a corner of the Profound Immortal Continent.

Experts from major sects gathered, looking at the teleportation array that had lit up in the hall, and everyone remained silent.

"Earth has experts. One strike killed the sword energy I left on my disciple Li Li Chengyu. Such strength is at least an existence at the Tribulation Crossing stage." A white-haired sword cultivator said with a gloomy face. He was Wang Wang Jiantong, a Mahayana powerhouse of the Sword Sect.

"The teleportation arrays left by the major sects for the Soul Transformation disciples have been lit for a while. Should we cross the boundary for a fight?" A priest wearing a Daoist robe and holding a whisk asked.

"With the other side's strength, killing a few Soul Transformation experts is just a blink of an eye. The teleportation array has been maintained and not destroyed. The other side is doing this intentionally, waiting for us to teleport across the boundary. Are they not even afraid of Mahayana-level powerhouses? Or are they deliberately leaving the teleportation array to make us suspicious?" A sect master also opened his mouth with a gloomy face.

"A Mahayana expert crossing the boundary to act is a major matter. If one is not careful and shatters a state of the other side, triggering the deity's wrath, what then? The loss is small for now; our sects have only lost a few disciples, which is not a bone-breaking injury. But if we get involved, it might truly trigger a war between realms." Another Supreme Elder of the Purple Qi Palace said in a flat tone.

The rest of the people stared at the lit teleportation array and remained silent again.

Otherwise, with their strength, they could have supported them the moment the six Soul Transformation experts opened the teleportation array.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, at this moment, Wang Wang Jiantong flicked his finger and directly shattered the teleportation array in front of him.

Everyone looked at him in unison.

"Since the disciples of the various sects have been slain by the other side's experts, it is too late for us to go over. Let this matter end here. Put the crossing-the-boundary matter aside for now; it is simply stupid to trigger a war between realms rashly." Wang Wang Jiantong said.

The crowd didn't say more and acquiesced to this approach.

No one dared to teleport across the boundary.

The other side was waiting for them there, just waiting for them. Regardless of whether there was danger or not, they couldn't take risks. If the other side was truly strong, wouldn't they be sending themselves to death if they went over?

It was better to be steady. Now the contradiction had become big, and it couldn't be intensified. Now they didn't understand the situation on Earth thoroughly enough, and hadn't explored the bottom of that deity, so they couldn't trigger a war between realms no matter what.

"Then open the passage and let the rogue cultivators go over. Those rogue cultivators are poor and have nothing, and love to take risks to seek opportunities. For a little petty profit, they can even not want their lives. Maybe they can cause some effect." Afterward, several Mahayana powerhouses agreed to this plan.

And the teleportation array on this side was destroyed.

The teleportation array in the Golden Academy also suddenly exploded and was destroyed.

The Old Daoist Wu was stunned for a moment seeing this, then laughed: "The other side chose to destroy the teleportation array and didn't want to fight across the boundary. It seems they were deterred."

"This is natural. Mahayana powerhouses have hope of becoming immortals, and eternal life is right in front of them. How could they cross the boundary to kill for the sake of a few Soul Transformation disciples? Moreover, they don't understand the situation here. If they accidentally encounter a disaster, hundreds of years of cultivation will be scattered in one morning. What a pity?" Cang Cang Erzi said very calmly, seemingly having determined the occurrence of this scene.

However, this big matter had nothing to do with Li Yi now. After he finished chasing and killing the Nascent Soul cultivators, he turned and killed toward those Jin Dan cultivators.

It was truly a field of corpses and blood flowing like a river at this moment.

These immortal cultivators were trapped by the five-colored large net between heaven and earth, with nowhere to escape, and could only fight back desperately.

"Li Yi, you devil, don't you even let go of Foundation Establishment cultivators? Do you really want to kill them all?" A Jin Dan cultivator was intercepted by Li Yi while fleeing with a dozen Foundation Establishment cultivators.

This Jin Dan cultivator knew the general situation was gone, but still couldn't help roaring.

"I recognize you. The day I opened the boundary gate to escape, it was you who sent Zhang Zhang Yihua on his way. You still have the nerve to speak." Li Yi's gaze was indifferent, then he pointed at a Foundation Establishment cultivator: "You, I also recognize. You made a deal with that Lin Lin Caiyi and targeted my mount, Shanyi."

Being pointed at, the Foundation Establishment stage Wood Daoist's face turned white, and his entire body was trembling.

He hadn't expected that his deal with Lin Lin Caiyi was so obscure, yet this Li Yi had remembered it all, and now wanted revenge.

"Spare... spare my life. I have a 'Years Pill' in my hand. After taking it, although it will reduce my lifespan by ten years, it can increase ten years of bitter cultivation..." The Wood Daoist stammered, hurriedly taking out his family wealth, begging for his life.

However, before he could finish speaking, Li Yi raised his hand and a crimson-white gang-qi slashed over. This gang-qi was blessed with the heart-fire energy of the first layer of the Five Qi Realm, and its power was even more terrifying; slaying Jin Dan cultivators was not a problem.

The Wood Daoist screamed on the spot and died immediately. The pill he had just taken out hadn't even been warmed up before it was snatched away by Li Yi.

"No need for trouble, I like to be self-reliant. I will take things myself." Li Yi took the pill and immediately thought of one he had also found in Lin Lin Caiyi's storage ring.

If these two pills were taken together, could he save twenty years of bitter cultivation?

If that were true, he would soon be able to break through to the second layer of the Five Qi Realm.

As for twenty years of lifespan, it was not worth mentioning.

He had plenty of lifespan pills in his hand; he could just eat one to make up for it.

"Go." The Jin Dan cultivator saw Li Yi was so demonic and didn't dare to say more, fleeing in terror with his escape light.

"Wasted effort." Li Yi didn't indulge him at all, performing the "Calling the Wind" method, and the heart-fire energy surged over.

Just one encounter, and this Jin Dan cultivator screamed and fell from the sky. With a blow of the wind, he turned into a pile of powder. Those Foundation Establishment cultivators were even more fragile; once the heart-fire energy invaded their bodies, they immediately ignited, struggling and wailing, but soon there was no movement.

Only after mastering the top-tier Daoist techniques did Li Yi discover that these immortal cultivators were equally weak and unbearable.
