Chapter 75: Sword Slashing Xue Zheng

The killing intent and "battle method intent" overflowing from Shi Shi Jiuzhai at this moment were enough to make any Gushing Spring Realm martial artist tremble and kneel in fear.

Li Li Youyi fought against this pressure with all his might, almost unable to breathe, gritted his teeth, and said with difficulty: "Just like now, how do you know that my strength is not enough to help you succeed? I think Dharma King Shi Shishi's eye is better than yours."

Li Li Youyi's ability to resist pressure and his mental intent made Shi Shi Jiuzhai secretly marvel. His eyes were uncertain: "Among the martial artists who opened Nine Springs, how many moves do you think you can hold on against, and can you escape?"

Li Li Youyi collected more useful information and said: "It seems the Dharma King wants me to deal with a Nine Springs martial artist? This is quite strange; why can't you make a move yourself? Could it be that the Nine Springs martial artist is in a place you can't go?"

Shi Shi Jiuzhai felt that the brain of this kid in front of him really had something, perhaps he could really succeed, so he said: "Not deal with, you are not that strong yet, you just need to monitor him."

Li Li Youyi was hard when he should be hard and soft when he should be soft, bowed and saluted: "The two Dharma Kings might as well speak clearly; now my life is in your hands. I will definitely do my best to handle the things you entrust."

No matter what, saving his life was the top priority.

Seeing him return to that "little wolf cub" look from the beginning, Shi Shi Jiuzhai's anger disappeared, and he laughed: "I said so, this is you. You were so arrogant just now, I thought Shi Shishi found the wrong person."

Shi Shi Shishi said: "Have you heard of the Jiu Li Hidden Sect?"

Li Li Youyi almost couldn't hold it……

What's the situation? They actually know about the Jiu Li Hidden Sect?

"Never heard of it." Li Li Youyi pretended to be blank, thought for a moment, and shook his head gently.

Shi Shi Jiuzhai said: "You don't need to have heard of it. Go to the Jiu Li Hidden Sect and do one thing for us; once it's done, the old accounts will be wiped out. Of course, you can also refuse, and then I will slap you to death here; after all, you know things you shouldn't know."

Investigating the Jiu Li Hidden Sect was of great importance; how could the Earth Wolf King Army completely trust that mysterious elder of the Jiu Li tribe?

Therefore, of course, they wanted to plant one of their own people to follow into the Jiu Li Hidden Sect.

The mysterious elder prepared to send Li Qing to the Hidden Sect, who had the cultivation of opening Nine Springs. Then the person the Earth Wolf King Army found couldn't be too weak, otherwise, they might be eliminated by Li Qing as soon as they entered the Hidden Sect.

Shi Shi Jiuzhai naturally wouldn't tell Li Li Youyi too much and said: "You just need to do one thing! Survive, find the location of the Jiu Li Hidden Sect, and then escape and tell us. Simple enough, right?"

Li Li Youyi asked: "I don't even know how to go to the Jiu Li Hidden Sect."

"You don't need to worry about that; we have our own arrangements." Shi Shi Jiuzhai laughed: "If you can complete this task, there will be no shortage of benefits for you."

"Haha!"

In the dark forest, a low and distant laughter rang out, eerie, as if it came from all directions.

"Bang!"

A heavy human-shaped object fell from mid-air, smashing a shallow pit into the ground.

It was a sack, and muffled sounds of pain came from the bag.

Shi Shi Shishi laughed: "Sixth Brother, why did you come back so late?"

"Swish!"

Li Li Youyi only felt a cold wind blowing, and by the fire, a figure as thin as a stick appeared out of thin air.

Shi Shi Liuyu was so thin he looked like a bundle of bones, his eyes were green, and his short hair was also green, giving people an eerie and chilling feeling.

He glanced at Li Li Youyi and laughed in a low voice: "Shi Shishi, the person you found doesn't seem that great. Look at the person I found; this person is known as the number one combat power below the Five Seas Realm in Li State, and he is a pure immortal body."

Li Li Youyi looked at the sack that had been wriggling on the ground, and a strange emotion arose in his heart.

Could it be that there was more than one unlucky person tonight?

Shi Shi Shishi untied the sack, and inside was indeed Xue Zheng, the silver pure immortal body who had been beaten black and blue.

Xue Zheng's knowledge was naturally not comparable to Li Li Youyi's, and he quickly recognized the identities of the three people in front of him. His face turned pale, and finally, his gaze looked toward Li Li Youyi.

Shi Shi Shishi said: "Sixth Brother, you came back late; we have already talked to Brother Xie Tianshu, and he will go to the Jiu Li Hidden Sect to handle things for us."

Shi Shi Liuyu appeared indifferent and said lightly: "Just kill him to silence him; it's not a troublesome matter. Do you think he is a match for Li Qing, who opened Nine Springs? If you want to send someone, you have to send someone strong."

Li Li Youyi knew the ruthlessness of the Southern Region bandits and was afraid that Shi Shi Liuyu would suddenly make a move to kill him, so he hurriedly said: "Dharma King's words are wrong; Xue Zheng has a great reputation in Li State, and everyone knows he is a disciple of the Sui Sect. Sending him to the Hidden Sect, his identity will be exposed instantly."

Xue Zheng was also not a stupid person and quickly saw the situation clearly, knowing that facing these bandit Dharma Kings, he had to have utilization value to survive.

He said: "Just a Gushing Spring Realm, what kind of great reputation is that? Let alone the figures of the older generation, even those on the 'Sixty-Year Cycle Record' probably don't know who Xue Zheng is."

Shi Shi Liuyu nodded: "Look, this cleverness is the kind of person our Earth Wolf King Army should use."

Xue Zheng added: "As long as you give me a chance to survive, I will swear to be loyal to the Earth Wolf King Army. I am the most potential new star of the younger generation of the Xue family and can do many things for the three Dharma Kings in Li State in the future."

Li Li Youyi never expected that Xue Zheng, who was usually upright and unyielding, could be so desperate and have no bottom line in order to survive?

Shi Shi Liuyu laughed: "Not bad, not bad, this attitude is right! Ninth Brother, Tenth Brother, what do you think? If Xue Zheng can complete this task, perhaps he can become an important chess piece we bury inside the Sui Sect."

Seeing Shi Shi Jiuzhai reveal a look of being moved, Li Li Youyi hurriedly said: "Xue Zheng only opened the Eight Springs; even if he is a pure immortal body, he may not be a match for a martial artist who opened Nine Springs. He might not even be a match for me!"

After transforming into a pure immortal body, how could Xue Zheng put Li Li Youyi in his eyes, and said: "Li Li Youyi, do you want to fight me?"

"I just want to tell the three Dharma Kings that I am more qualified than you." Li Li Youyi said.

Shi Shi Liuyu's green eyes overflowed with laughter: "It seems to have become interesting all of a sudden!"

"Brother Xie Tianshu, you are the person I found; you can't lose to him." Shi Shi Shishi, even though he knew Li Li Youyi's real name, still addressed him this way.

Xue Zheng knew that Li Li Youyi had a black iron seal that could release lightning, and secretly considered whether to speak about this matter, but was afraid that the three Dharma Kings of the Earth Wolf King Army would kill him to silence him after learning that Li Li Youyi might be a seed of the Lei Xiao Sect inheritor.

Xue Zheng felt that Li Li Youyi probably wouldn't dare to expose this point easily, and as long as he solved him within a few moves, he wouldn't have the chance to use the black iron seal.

In order to fight for a qualification, in order to fight for his life.

The two set up their stance by the stream, their eyes colliding sharply.

Without a doubt, tonight, either you die or I die.

Shi Shi Jiuzhai said: "Why don't we open a gambling game? The odds are one to nine; I bet on Xue Zheng."

Shi Shi Liuyu said: "Ninth Brother, you are the dealer; even if you bet, it should be me and Old Ten betting against each other. Old Ten, are you coming?"

Shi Shi Shishi didn't know how powerful the Eight Springs pure immortal body was; it was absolutely capable of competing with a Nine Springs person. Moreover, Xue Zheng had a famous reputation and extraordinary battle methods, and Li Li Youyi's winning rate was truly slim.

Shi Shi Liuyu said: "Why don't you bet on the kid you found, how many moves he can hold on against Xue Zheng?"

"Swish! Swish!"

Before the gambling game started, the two holding the saber and sword had already rushed toward each other at high speed.

Xue Zheng wanted to finish the battle quickly, and the first saber strike was to mobilize the magic Qi in the Feng Fu to perform the strongest strike that only an Eight Springs martial artist could perform.

Li Li Youyi didn't dare to show too strong combat power, so facing this saber strike from Xue Zheng that was like a mountain and sea, he could only try every means to dodge.

But dodging the Heavenly Dao Law convergence was already as difficult as ascending to heaven, not to mention that this saber strike had the blessing of the Feng Fu small Qi Sea, which even a Five Seas Realm martial artist could only take head-on.

"Whoosh!"

Just as Li Li Youyi was about to become a ghost under Xue Zheng's saber, he saw that when he was only a hair's breadth away from the blade, his figure was like a wisp of green smoke, escaping sideways from the momentum of the saber Qi.

With a bang, the powerful saber light that Xue Zheng slashed out was like a light wave, flying five feet away, and the trunk of a big tree as thick as a bowl in the forest exploded.

The combat power was indeed stronger than a month ago, Li Li Youyi thought secretly.

Shi Shi Shishi stood up and cheered: "Good movement technique, it turns out you not only have Heavenly Dao Law convergence in sword technique, but your movement technique also has Heavenly Dao Law convergence!"

On the bank of the Sui River, he had seen Li Li Youyi perform a sword technique of Heavenly Dao Law convergence.

The movement technique Li Youyi performed at this moment was naturally the Qingxu Cicada-Catching Step, which he had practiced to Heavenly Dao Law convergence in the Cang King's Tomb. The reason it was so fast was that he had practiced the Twelve Scattered Hands of the Chan Sect for more than ten years.

Shi Shi Jiuzhai nodded and said: "At his age, and in the Gushing Spring Realm, being able to practice two moves of Heavenly Dao Law convergence is indeed quite extraordinary. Six Colors, how many moves did you practice?"

"It's Shi Liuyu."

Shi Shi Liuyu corrected him and snorted coldly: "I only wanted to impact the Feng Fu and Ancestral Field and break through to the Five Seas. No matter how well you practice moves and techniques, if you are one realm higher, you can crush them into pieces directly."

Shi Shi Jiuzhai said: "No matter what, after Xue Zheng exhausts the magic Qi in his Feng Fu, that little wolf cub finally has a glimmer of a chance to win. Old Ten, are you betting? The odds are still one to nine?"

Shi Shi Shishi was a bit hesitant; these odds were too good.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

……

Xue Zheng and Li Li Youyi's figures crossed and shuttled, fighting from the bank to the stream, and they had already exchanged more than a dozen moves.

Li Li Youyi controlled his strength, completely falling into a disadvantage, retreating constantly, extremely wretched, sometimes having a wisp of hair cut off, sometimes having a corner of his clothes slashed off.

Shi Shi Jiuzhai observed the battle between the two and found that after entering the stream, Xue Zheng's movements obviously became sluggish. And Li Li Youyi, relying on his clever movement technique, could actually step on the waves and attack the other's weakness with his own strengths.

After Xue Zheng noticed this, he immediately wanted to pull the battlefield back to the bank.

It would have been fine if he hadn't thought so; after all, a mere stream wouldn't make his combat power drop too much. But as soon as he thought so, he took a step toward the bank, and Li Youyi immediately seized the opportunity to perform the Taiyi Sea-Opening of the Heavenly Dao Law convergence level.

"Swish!"

The air was split, and the sword light seemed to be able to split the entire stream.

The momentum was sharp, and the sound of the sword was ear-piercing.

Xue Zheng's leg that wanted to land on the bank was not hit by the sword edge, but it was hit by the momentum, and the trouser leg was torn instantly, ringing out a bang of metal collision.

If he didn't possess a white silver pure immortal body and strong defense, this leg would have been injured.

Even so, he still felt the pain in his leg, and his center of gravity was somewhat unstable.

Once Li Li Youyi occupied the upper hand, it was naturally destructive, and the sword covered it like a rain waterfall, faster and faster with every sword. At the same time, he secretly added a force, creating the impression that Xue Zheng had fallen into a disadvantage due to a misjudgment and had no chance to fight back.

Shi Shi Shishi never expected such a situation to appear and immediately said: "I bet!?"

Shi Shi Jiuzhai stared at the two fighting in the stream and said: "No, now the odds are three to seven…… four to six, five to five……"

The next moment, Shi Shi Jiuzhai and Shi Shi Liuyu stood up almost at the same time, their eyes full of disbelief.

Only to see in the stream, Li Li Youyi beat Xue Zheng into a constant retreat, his legs unable to stand steady, his steps becoming more and more chaotic, completely losing his rhythm.

Xue Zheng also thought he had fallen into a disadvantage at first, so he was beaten by Li Li Youyi and had no chance to fight back. But gradually he felt something was wrong, and truly felt Li Li Youyi's strength increasing.

"Not good, this kid must have broken through to the Ninth Spring……"

Xue Zheng knew that he was afraid there would be no way to survive today, so he wanted to drag Li Li Youyi to die together, and shouted: "He is actually……"

"Feng Fu one sword, the strongest strike."

Li Youyi deliberately shouted this, suppressing Xue Zheng's voice, and performed the Taiyi Sea-Opening of the Heavenly Dao Law convergence level again, falling from top to bottom, landing on Xue Zheng's head.

The next moment, the Yellow Dragon Sword appeared under Xue Zheng's crotch.

A drop of blood slid down from the tip of the sword and dripped into the stream, rippling a gorgeous blood flower, which was quickly washed away.

Li Li Youyi carried the sword and walked back; behind him, Xue Zheng's corpse split in half from the middle and fell into the stream, his internal organs scattered, but it turned out that not his whole body was silver-like in texture.

"Ten to zero! Old Ten, you had the chance but didn't use it; you don't have the courage to gamble at all." Shi Shi Jiuzhai sighed.

Shi Shi Shishi was so regretful that his intestines turned green, and he rushed to the two halves of Xue Zheng's corpse in the stream, as if he wanted to sew him up, repair him, and let him fight Li Li Youyi again.

Li Li Youyi had just landed on the bank when a figure flashed in front of him.

Shi Shi Liuyu's thin, ghost-like face pressed against him, and then his fingers pressed toward the position of his Ancestral Field below his navel, and he let out a light "huh": "Sure enough, the Ancestral Field has not been opened."

The next moment, Shi Shi Liuyu's palm pressed toward Li Li Youyi's chest and lungs: "The Qi Sea has not been opened either, it's really strange, could it be that by practicing moves and techniques to a certain level, mortals can also slash pure immortal bodies in the same realm?"

Shi Shi Liuyu seemed to have opened the door to a new world, ecstatic.

After all, he was a relatively special deformed species and had always been very wary of pure immortal bodies in the same realm, so naturally, he was very unwilling in his heart.

Li Li Youyi was so nervous that his heartbeat was almost uncontrollable, very afraid that Shi Shi Liuyu would investigate his Feng Fu, but fortunately, Shi Shi Liuyu didn't go to suspect the authenticity of his Eight Springs cultivation at all.

Seeing Shi Shi Liuyu turn around, Li Li Youyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly.

Without any warning, Shi Shi Liuyu turned around like lightning, a green complex rune appeared in his palm, and he slapped him on the chest. Li Li Youyi flew backward for several feet and fell heavily to the ground.

Li Li Youyi suffocated for a brief moment, then breathed violently.

His chest was not only painful but also had a numb and unbearable force drilling into his body.

After he caught his breath, he hurriedly pulled open his collar, but there was nothing there, and he said coldly: "Dharma King Shi Liuyu, what…… what does this mean?"

Shi Shi Liuyu carried his hands behind his back and laughed: "First of all, congratulations on killing Xue Zheng and winning the qualification to handle things for the Earth Wolf King Army. But you should understand that we won't trust you, and you are definitely not willing. So we have to use some means to make you willing."

"What was hit into your body is a Six Desires Rune."

"You must never think that anyone can help you remove the rune. The strokes of every Six Desires Rune are different, and only the one who cast the rune knows the correct way to solve it. Don't worry, after you complete the task and return, I will help you remove it."

Li Li Youyi stood up slowly and said: "You might as well not have said this."

Shi Shi Shishi walked back carrying the magic artifact saber of Xue Zheng and said: "I will guarantee it! If you can really complete the task and return, I will not only let Sixth Brother help you remove the rune, but also introduce you to join the Earth Wolf King Army. Because by then, in the Cang Li tribe, in Li State, you will definitely have no place to stay, and all the cultivators of the Jiu Li tribe will wish to smash you into ten thousand pieces."

Shi Shi Jiuzhai said: "If you can break through to the Ancestral Field, I will introduce you to the Heavenly King and let you be the eleventh."

Shi Shi Jiuzhai's words were half true and half false.

False, he wanted to stabilize Li Li Youyi and let him handle things obediently.

True, if Li Li Youyi could really break through to the Ancestral Field and complete the task and return, he indeed had the opportunity to be the eleventh Dharma King.

……

Not long after the four left, two Five Seas Realm elders of the Cang Li tribe followed the footprints Li Li Youyi left and came to the stream.

Before long, they found the remnant corpse of Xue Zheng, who had been split in half, in the stream pool downstream.

One of the elders was shocked: "This…… could this be his doing?"

"We followed his footprints and aura to find this place; Xue Zheng might really have been slashed by him with one sword." The other elder said.

"Then there is only one possibility: everyone has misjudged the situation. Li Li Youyi must have broken through to the Ancestral Field; he is a Nine Springs True Person."

"Hard to say, let's take Xue Zheng's corpse back first; there is still residual aura on the wound, the clan leader and the young clan leader should be able to judge whether it was slashed by Li Li Youyi's magic artifact battle sword."

"If he really is a Nine Springs Supreme Person…… apart from the young clan leader, the Cang Li tribe hasn't produced a Nine Springs Supreme Person in thirty years……"
