Chapter 369

In the mountain forest.

Qi Tong's face turned pale, and he looked at Li Rui in disbelief.

Or rather, at the crack on the large golden bell above his head.

"How is it possible??!"

He never thought that this little old man before him would be so fierce, actually slashing a crack into the magic treasure bestowed by the Palace Master with a single saber.

That was the indestructible Divine Light Shield!

Li Rui raised his brows slightly.

"Still quite hard?"

"Come again!"

In an instant, all the profound meanings of the Great Henglian within his body were revealed.

The overbearing and peerless power poured along the immortal saber Zhan Jiao toward the golden light cover on the young man's head.

Although he didn't know what it was, as long as it could crack, it could be smashed.

Clang.

Clang.

Clang!

The terrifying sound echoed continuously in the mountain forest.

Finally.

The golden light cover could no longer support itself, and following a crisp sound of jade shattering from the jade ruyi in Qi Tong's hand, it broke into two halves.

The golden light faded.

Qi Tong discovered that his entire Primordial cultivation was actually so vulnerable before Li Rui.

The Blazing Flame Body was even easily suppressed by the Zhan Jiao in Li Rui's hand.

At this moment, Qi Tong seemed to have lost all his means.

Martial path, his martial path was not as good as others.

Even the immortal arts he was proud of failed on Li Rui.

Only eight moves.

Qi Tong was already unable to support himself.

Just as he was preparing to use the Blazing Flame Body to stir up fire wolves and escape, suddenly a treasure blue light enveloped him.

The Blazing Flame Body extinguished in an instant.

Qi Tong widened his eyes in disbelief.

Because this blue true qi before him was something he couldn't be more familiar with; it was precisely the Profound Water Body cultivated by Zhu Yun.

He pointed at Li Rui:

"How is it possible, why do you also know immortal arts?"

But answering him was only the Zhan Jiao in Li Rui's hand.

Water overcomes fire.

Li Rui's Profound Water Body broke open Qi Tong's Blazing Flame Body almost in an instant; Qi Tong, without the Blazing Flame Body, was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, with almost no ability to fight back.

Sizzle!

Zhan Jiao swept across Qi Tong's neck.

Instantly harvesting his vitality.

Qi Tong's head flew and spun in the air, finally splashing blood and landing on the ground.

Dead beyond death.

Having killed his opponent, Li Rui finally had time to look at this strange young man before him.

"Are all the people of the Purple Chai Jingong this formidable?"

He didn't even need to think to know that the voice of this young man before him was from the Purple Chai Jingong.

But he never expected.

This Purple Chai Jingong disciple before him not only cultivated the Five Spirits Body Refining Technique but even had a strange jade ruyi on him.

If he hadn't forcefully plundered the immortal qi on that jade ruyi with the Great Henglian, he really might not have been able to break open that golden light cover so quickly.

The Five Spirits Body Refining Technique was of great importance.

So he only performed a one-hit kill after confirming that this man before him had no trump cards left.

Leaving no future trouble.

"Could it be that the Purple Chai Jingong all cultivate the Five Spirits Body Refining Technique?"

Li Rui subsequently felt it was too outrageous.

He could perceive that the Five Spirits Body Refining Technique cultivated by this man before him was not the complete version, but had been modified, so even if one didn't have a high-grade spiritual root, one could cultivate it, though it couldn't be called an immortal art at all, just a more brilliant internal martial art.

But even so, the requirement for spiritual roots was not low, and not everyone could cultivate it.

Li Rui glanced at the demon beasts that were gradually surrounding them again.

With a wave of his sleeve.

The man's corpse turned into dust and disappeared.

Only the jade ruyi broken into two halves remained on the ground.

Li Rui also remembered that the strange golden light just now appeared from the jade ruyi before him.

Instantly.

A flash of lightning crossed his mind.

"Could this object be the legendary immortal treasure?"

He was a Mountain-Seeking Envoy and could read many dossiers about Transcendent Immortals.

From those dossiers, he knew that Transcendent Immortals had an object, named immortal treasure, or called magic treasure.

Unlike the immortal weapons of martial artists, the forms of immortal treasures were strange and varied, and their abilities were even more unimaginable.

Like this jade ruyi before him, it should be a defensive immortal treasure.

To avoid being traced back to him through the jade ruyi.

Li Rui had no intention of picking up the jade ruyi to study it.

A green light flashed in his eyes.

A vine appeared on the ground, grabbed the jade ruyi, and drilled into the ground.

In this way.

Even if it were a Transcendent Immortal, it would be very difficult to find the jade ruyi.

After doing all this, Li Rui then intended to turn and leave.

Just at this moment.

Lines of small characters appeared before his eyes.

【Congratulations to the host for completing the beginner plot of the Becoming an Immortal and Ancestor achievement — Slaying a Cultivator.】

【The path of cultivation is long, and conflicts are always unavoidable. On your path of cultivation, you encountered a disciple of a cultivator and slew him.】

【Task of slaying a cultivator completed, reward is being settled...】

【Task rating: E.】 【Obtained 10 achievement points!】

【Name: Li Rui】

【Age: 15】

【Talents: Martial Bone, Superb Comprehension, Wisdom Eye, Great Dream Wandering Immortal, Demon-Overcoming Victory, Dao Seed】

【Cultivation Techniques: Long Chun Gong, Dragon Wandering Nine Heavens Diagram, Dragon Elephant True Origin Strength, Five Spirits Body Refining Technique】

【Items: Spirit-Raising Book】

【Achievement: 50/100】

"Hiss... E?"

Li Rui had activated the system for so long, and this was the first time he had seen an E rating.

'From the system's perspective, this cultivator is very weak, weak to a complete mess.'

!

Isn't that so?

This Purple Chai Jingong disciple before him, although his martial path foundation was decent, at least he was a Primordial, but in terms of cultivation, even the immortal art he practiced was a defective, castrated version; it would be strange if the rating could be good.

'Truly a wasted kill.'

If this thought were known by Qi Tong, he would probably be angered to death again while walking the Yellow Springs road underground.

Li Rui's footsteps only paused slightly.

Then he disappeared into the mountain forest.

"Lord Li."

Nie Siming and Yuan Xiong saw Li Rui bringing Guan Xinrong and the others back to the Qinghe enclosure and greeted him.

"Nothing."

Li Rui waved his hand casually.

He did not tell others about the matter of killing a Purple Chai Jingong disciple.

He was not yet at the point of exposing himself for that little bit of military merit.

Didn't he hear what the Purple Chai Jingong disciple said? That Palace Master had already set his sights on him.

So he had to be even more low-key.

Looking behind him again.

The defensive line built by the main army had already blocked the demon tide.

At most one day.

The demon tide would completely dissipate.

Nie Siming sneered and said: "Does this Purple Chai Jingong think that a demon tide can dispel our military training plan?"

Yuan Xiong: "In this demon tide, a total of over three hundred people were killed or injured, and one garrison commander."

Such damage.

In front of the massive number of one hundred thousand troops, of course, it counted for nothing.

And Annan Town had already begun to counterattack; the demon beasts in the mountain would probably be slain by more than half.

The goal of this military training would probably be completed ahead of schedule.

This result was actually quite gratifying.

While the three were talking.

Fu Tao walked over.

He cupped his fists toward Li Rui: "Lord Li, many thanks for taking action to save those little brats under my command; I will remember this favor."

Li Rui was somewhat surprised.

What Fu Tao was talking about should be the garrison commander who was saved together with Guan Xinrong.

'To be able to let Fu Tao thank him personally, could it be Fu Tao's relative?'

Still pondering.

Fu Tao gave the answer directly: "That kid is my distant nephew, brought here this time for training; he really makes people worry."

Li Rui: "A small effort, General Fu need not take it to heart."

Although he said so, Fu Tao still thanked him again before leaving.

Seeing Fu Tao leave.

Yuan Xiong then spoke: "This Fu Tao really values his little nephew."

Nie Siming: "Maybe it's an illegitimate child."

"..."

Yuan Xiong and Li Rui both chose not to answer; looking at this posture, maybe it was a prophecy.

Such situations were really not uncommon among military officers.

After an interlude.

The military training returned to normal.

But because of the demon tide, there were really not many demon beasts left in the Yu Kingdom part of the Ten Thousand Mountains, and the subsequent battles were much easier, posing almost no threat to the Annan Town army.

No waves and no ripples.

The military training lasted for seven days, and the demon beasts in the mountain were killed clean before they withdrew their troops and returned to camp.

Some were happy and some were sad.

The families of those soldiers who were killed by demon beasts during the military training received a generous pension, but even so, it was hard to hide the sorrow.

Of course, the vast majority of people were happy because they had gained military merit.

"Big Brother, eighteen great merits this time; I don't believe I still can't break through."

In the Assistant Regional Commander's Mansion.

Ning Zhongtian said with a beautiful look.

This military training could be described as a huge harvest, and he almost didn't encounter any danger.

That day.

He had returned to the Qinghe enclosure with his soldiers long before the demon tide arrived, and not even one was injured.

Then, under Li Rui's operation, eight great merits appeared out of thin air.

With so much help, if he still couldn't break through, he might as well find a rope and hang himself.

Li Rui: "Fourth Brother, among us brothers, Big Brother values you the most."

"..."

Ning Zhongtian always felt that these words were not right.

Among the four of them, except for Big Brother Li Rui, Second Brother and Third Brother were only Seventh-Rank; isn't he the most promising? There was no choice, he could only value him.

"Fourth Brother, Big Brother will have to rely on you in the future."

"..."
