Chapter 563

"They've already started over there, now is the time."

The boy said to the middle-aged male cultivator beside him.

Afterward.

The two of them sacrificed the Dao Body Realm talismans bestowed by True Person Jiuji, and then vanished into thin air.

When they appeared again.

They had already arrived in Fire Fengcheng, and were already inside the Great Yu camp.

Less than ten zhang away from Li Rui.

And regarding this.

The cultivators remaining in Fire Fengcheng knew nothing.

This was a method left behind by a Heavenly Human Realm expert; if Fire Fengcheng's runes could defend against the Purple Mansion Realm, it could already be called impregnable, but as for stronger existences, how could a mere city wall defend against them?

The boy and the middle-aged male cultivator looked at each other.

The two of them precisely arrived in the room where Li Rui was.

A faint golden glow appeared vaguely in their sleeves.

This was another method bestowed by True Person Jiuji, the Hunyuan Ruler.

It was a magic treasure that True Person Jiuji had already discarded, containing a trace of True Person Jiuji's magic power; let alone the Purple Mansion Realm, even if someone at the Dao Body Realm took such a hit, they would be heavily injured.

Therefore, Li Rui was undoubtedly going to die!

A cold glint flashed in the boy's eyes.

He didn't even enter the room.

He intended to directly activate the Hunyuan Ruler and raze this camp to the ground.

But just as he was about to activate the magic treasure—

The middle-aged male cultivator beside him suddenly let out a soft "eh": "Senior Martial Brother, don't you think it's... a bit too normal inside this room?"

"Normal?"

The boy heard the middle-aged male cultivator's words.

He was stunned.

Then he was shocked.

Just as the middle-aged male cultivator said.

It was too normal.

According to what they knew, Li Rui was an extremely cautious person, but now, the aura in the room suggested he was still sleeping.

Completely unaware that danger was imminent.

It was too smooth, which instead made the two of them feel uneasy.

The boy gritted his teeth.

"Forget it, just wipe him out!"

As long as the Hunyuan Ruler is activated, never mind what schemes or tricks he has, they will all turn to dust.

But just at this moment—

A voice rang out from behind:

"Are you two here to kill me?"

!!!

The boy and the middle-aged male cultivator were both shocked.

Just as they turned their heads.

They saw their target, Li Rui, smiling and looking at them.

Hum...

The two of them only felt a buzzing in their brains, and everything went black before their eyes.

They completely lost consciousness.

Li Rui looked calm, lowering his head.

At his feet were two more corpses of Purple Mansion Realm cultivators.

It was truly so.

Just by taking one look, they died.

This is the gap between the Dao Body Realm and the Purple Mansion Realm.

Although he hadn't yet undergone the Dao God Lightning Tribulation, because he attained the Dao through force, he was now equivalent to half a Dao Body Realm expert.

Of course.

This method was actually far less mysterious than it looked.

It was nothing more than the Dao Body Realm's mastery of the Great Dao being more refined; it looked like just a glance, but it was actually equivalent to a strike.

Thinking this.

Li Rui easily picked up the Hunyuan Ruler that had rolled out from the boy's sleeve.

"Good stuff."

He couldn't help but praise it.

Just looking at the material, he knew it was undoubtedly a Dao Body Realm magic treasure.

"They really thought highly of me."

Li Rui smiled and shook his head.

These demonic cultivators, in order to assassinate him, had actually brought such powerful magic treasures.

If he were truly just an ordinary cultivator who had just opened his Purple Mansion, or even a step further, a normal cultivator who had integrated the Dao, the one lying on the ground today would be him. No, with the power of this Hunyuan Ruler, he would probably be left without even bones. It's just a pity.

No matter how powerful a magic treasure is, it is ultimately an external object.

If the person using it isn't good enough, it's useless.

Just like these two, they died before they could even activate it, so even if they were given a Heavenly Human Realm magic treasure, they couldn't kill him.

Li Rui hooked his fingers slightly.

The Spirit-Binding Rope restraining the two of them floated up on its own, and then the two spirit embryos were obediently pulled out from the corpses.

The faces of the two spirit embryos were full of terror.

They naturally recognized that the magic treasure restraining them was the legendary, notorious Spirit-Binding Rope.

Specially refined for trapping and killing spirit embryos.

It is the favorite item of demonic cultivators.

Even they, as orthodox demonic cultivators of Wan Fadian, couldn't afford it, but looking at Li Rui, this righteous cultivator, he threw out the Spirit-Binding Rope skillfully the moment he killed them, extremely seasoned, and one look showed he wasn't a first-time offender.

More demonic than a demonic cultivator.

Animals!

The two of them were filled with regret.

They had calculated everything, but hadn't expected that the one they were assassinating was an old demon who was countless times more sinister than themselves.

These two couldn't even keep their spirit embryos.

They were directly scattered into nothingness.

Li Rui did indeed do as they wished, not releasing his Dao Embryo, directly grabbing the spirit embryos and putting them into his mouth.

Without even needing to chew, they entered his Purple Mansion and became immortal materials for his Dao Embryo.

Regarding this.

He didn't feel the slightest bit of cruelty or discomfort.

The world of immortal cultivation is like this.

It's even more cruel than in the small grotto-heaven; people eat people, immortals eat immortals, and he was just following the local customs.

"This Spirit-Binding Rope is truly easy to use."

Li Rui's mind moved.

The Spirit-Binding Rope returned to his storage bag on its own.

With this Spirit-Binding Rope, there was no need to release his Dao Embryo to pursue and kill, reducing the risk of exposure.

It was extremely handy to use.

Afterward.

Just as he was preparing to destroy the two corpses in front of him.

His sleeve, which had already been waved, stopped.

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

Then he sent a voice transmission to Ning Zhongtian: "Fourth Brother, send these two corpses to the City Lord's Mansion."

"My goodness, is this the head of a Heavenly Human Realm expert?"

"Our Grandmaster is truly too fierce."

Ning Zhongtian looked at the row of heads already hanging on the city wall of Fire Fengcheng, feeling a toothache.

One of the old Daoist priest's heads was the most vivid.

Just because this person's identity was none other than the Heavenly Human of Wan Fadian, True Person Jiuji.

A head of a Heavenly Human Realm expert was actually hung on the city wall.

The first time in this Jiazi Demon-Sweeping!

It should be the greatest contribution.

That's right.

Li Rui's Grandmaster Gao Tianxia took action, and what made people's jaws drop was that True Person Jiuji not only failed to kill Yuan Dingting, but also got himself involved.

His physical body directly collapsed, his divine embryo was broken, and finally, a trace of his spirit escaped.

It couldn't be described as anything but miserable.

Even if he recuperated in the future, it would be absolutely impossible to return to his peak, and even opening a Purple Mansion would be difficult; I'm afraid it would be hard to hear the name True Person Jiuji again.

This battle.

Directly made Gao Tianxia famous on the Southeast battlefield.

You must know, even in the great war between righteous and demonic, the vast majority of those who die are bottom-tier cultivators, and not even many Purple Mansion Realm cultivators die; as for Heavenly Humans, they no longer belong to the middle tier, so it's even harder for them to die.

Generally, it's only at the very end of a great war, when true fire has been ignited, that a Heavenly Human might fall.

Otherwise, if several Heavenly Human Realm experts died in one great war, even great immortal sects like Shenxuan Sect or Bai Yujing would be heartbroken to death.

That Jiazi Demon-Sweeping would simply be impossible to happen.

The great war between righteous and demonic is, to put it bluntly, launched by those great cultivators for their own interests; if the great war threatened their own lives, then there would be no need to fight.

So, for a Heavenly Human to fall just as this Jiazi Demon-Sweeping began, it naturally surprised people.

To sum it up.

It's just that Gao Tianxia is truly unreasonably strong.
