Chapter 591: Dao Body Mid-Stage
Inside the Immortal Tomb.
Under the intertwining of the Great Dao, a very special domain had formed, and under the nourishment of endless years, many monsters had been bred.
These monsters had chaotic consciousnesses and possessed only the instinct to kill.
"Ah!"
A giant roar.
Then the ox-headed, human-bodied monster collapsed with a boom, and then vanished, turning into a ball of black mist.
'A remnant soul?'
Li Rui looked at that ball of black mist, thinking in his heart.
That's right.
He had also come to the Immortal Tomb.
It was just that he wasn't using his original identity; at this moment, to outsiders, he was just an ordinary cultivator with an average appearance.
Many of those who entered the Immortal Tomb this time came from the Twelve Towers and Five Cities.
The personnel were mixed.
So he didn't seem out of place.
'Interesting.'
Li Rui looked at the Immortal Tomb, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.
This was his first time coming to the Immortal Tomb.
He hadn't come before, not because he wasn't interested, but because his strength wasn't enough. Now that he had sufficient strength, he naturally had to come and take a look.
This was the outer perimeter of the Immortal Tomb.
It had long been cleared countless times by experts from Bai Yujing and the Profound Heaven Sect; for someone at his Dao Body Realm, there was almost no danger.
Just as he was pondering.
Suddenly.
Exclamations from a group of people rang out not far away.
Li Rui's figure flashed, and then he vanished.
On the other end.
A giant ape the size of a small hill was waving fists that looked like houses, smashing them fiercely toward the ground.
The giant fists fell.
Several figures flew backward.
Pfft!
Spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, those Profound Heaven Sect cultivators instantly turned as pale as gold paper.
"Didn't you say there were no monsters too strong here?"
A young man glared fiercely at the equally disheveled old Daoist priest beside him.
If Li Rui were there.
He would definitely recognize this as the old Daoist Xuanwei of the Qingwei Sect, a subordinate sect of the Profound Heaven Sect.
Because he was more familiar with the Ten Thousand Mountains, he had also been sent to trial.
Xuanwei's expression wasn't good either.
He suppressed the surging blood energy in his body and shouted: "Don't fight head-on, run!"
This monster was almost equivalent to the combat power of the Dao Body Realm.
If it weren't for the fact that it lacked intelligence, they would probably have been reduced to ashes long ago.
Xuanwei just felt depressed.
He had been to the Immortal Tomb several times before and knew that this was the outer perimeter, where the possibility of Dao Body Realm monsters appearing was very low. He didn't expect his luck to be so bad that he actually encountered one.
No need to think.
There was no fighting it; they could only run.
But they wanted to leave, yet the Mountain-Moving Ape had no intention of letting them go at all.
Its huge body pressed down, carrying endless power.
Seeing this scene.
Those Profound Heaven Sect disciples felt incomparably desperate.
But just a split second before the giant ape's fist was about to fall again, a giant light sword measuring several dozen zhang flashed, colliding with the Mountain-Moving Ape's giant fist.
A female disciple of the Profound Heaven Sect looked with surprise at the mighty man who had suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Senior Brother Bai?!"
Only hearing Bai Renfeng speak faintly: "You all retreat; I will deal with this monster."
After speaking, he walked forward, sword in hand.
Coupled with his superior appearance.
It truly made those female cultivators look on, infatuated.
A quarter of an hour later.
The Mountain-Moving Ape's huge head was cut off by Bai Renfeng, and finally, its body turned into a large ball of black mist, escaping toward the deepest part of the Immortal Tomb.
When everything calmed down, those Profound Heaven Sect disciples surrounded Bai Renfeng.
One after another, they praised his divine martial prowess.
For a time.
Bai Renfeng's prestige soared.
And in a corner where the Profound Heaven Sect disciples couldn't see.
Li Rui narrowed his eyes slightly.
He had seen Bai Renfeng's move just now clearly.
He was indeed very strong.
"Worthy of being a true disciple of the Profound Heaven Sect." Even Li Rui couldn't help but praise him secretly in his heart.
Bai Renfeng was on the most orthodox path of an Immortal Sect true disciple.
Born into a cultivation family of the Profound Heaven Sect, then entering the Profound Heaven Sect to cultivate at the age of ten, he became an inner disciple smoothly, and his cultivation base reached the Dao Body Realm; one step further would be the Heavenly Human Realm.
Do not think that such a family scion is just a flowery pillow.
Quite the opposite.
Such people are extremely difficult to deal with.
In the cultivation world, experience and wit are also important, but for a cultivator, what is more important is magic treasures.
These people often carry several magic treasures bestowed by family elders.
Under absolute strength, any amount of scheming is useless.
You can be smashed to death with money.
Of course, he couldn't afford to offend him.
Taking one last look, Li Rui turned and left.
Appearing here.
Naturally, it wasn't a coincidence.
He came specifically for Bai Renfeng.
Otherwise, with his status as the Imperial Astronomer of the Yu Kingdom, he had plenty of ways to enter the Immortal Tomb; there was no need to choose this time specifically.
Coming here was to kill.
Let me say it again.
Li Rui holds a grudge.
Some grudges aren't that they aren't reported, it's just that he couldn't beat them before.
Bai Renfeng had tricked him before; although it wasn't aimed at him alone, this grudge had to be remembered.
If Li Rui hadn't been strong enough, he might have ended up like Nie Siming's sixth brother.
Dying directly on Black Wind Island.
Besides that, he hadn't gone to take revenge, yet Bai Renfeng had come to calculate cause and effect first.
That was even more impure in intention.
This person deserved to be killed most!
"Big Brother, have you heard? Several Immortal Sect disciples died over at the Immortal Tomb."
Ning Zhongtian excitedly told Li Rui the latest news from the Immortal Tomb.
Li Rui just nodded faintly.
Yes.
He had already left the Immortal Tomb.
To outsiders, this Imperial Astronomer of the Yu Kingdom had never left Qinghe City.
"What happened in the Immortal Tomb?"
Ning Zhongtian: "I don't know why, but some monsters that should have been in the deeper areas came to the peripheral regions, and many were even equivalent to the Dao Body Realm; those Immortal Sect disciples were naturally no match."
"Speaking of which, those Immortal Sects have deep foundations."
"So many people have died, yet those elders outside are still so calm."
Li Rui chuckled: "Fourth Brother, keep sending people to watch."
Immortal Sects were never greenhouses.
The word 'trial' already determined that its nature couldn't be gentle.
No matter which Immortal Sect it was, people dying in trials was the most normal thing.
It was even heard that some Immortal Sects deliberately let useless disciples die in trials, and then used their flesh to nourish spirit fields.
Watching Ning Zhongtian run out of the courtyard again.
Li Rui walked calmly back into the room.
Sitting cross-legged.
Breathing and exhaling earnestly.
He looked inside himself and saw that the Dao foundation, which had turned into an immortal tower, had reached over fifty-nine zhang at this time, just a sliver away from sixty zhang.
A sixty-zhang Dao foundation was the Dao Body Mid-Stage.
This inch seemed very simple.
But for many Dao Body Realm experts, it was like a natural chasm that couldn't be crossed.
Because there was something called a bottleneck.
Once a bottleneck was encountered, it was equivalent to knowing clearly that one was only a sliver away from breaking through, but that sliver was enough to exhaust a genius to death.
Such situations were countless.
Even for Bai Renfeng, this sliver had taken a full ten years.
But Li Rui... had no bottleneck.
The luck of the Heaven-Sacrificing was refined into pure spiritual energy and Dao power, nourishing the Dao foundation.
The immortal tower grew taller bit by bit.
Finally—
The immortal tower seemed to touch some kind of limit.
Powerful magic power surged like a tide.
Dao Body Mid-Stage!
