Mortals cultivate immortality, and their IQ is playing with their heartbeats

#282 - razed to the ground

Li Chengfeng, of course, also wanted to know the secrets within, as he was filled with longing for ascension.

He needed to search for clues and understand everything thoroughly; only then could he feel at ease.

Suddenly, his expression changed, and he said, "Someone is coming back."

With a wave of his hand, Yao Qi was taken into his Life World space.

He smiled, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, and whispered, "Old thing, now that you're back, I'll give you a big gift, turning you into an art of explosion, the brilliance within fireworks."

Li Chengfeng's divine sense was exceptionally powerful; he had already detected the guardian of the Heavenly Fortune Auction House—that old monster with mid-stage Core Formation cultivation—returning.

The old monster's face was filled with worry because he had searched for a long time without finding any trace of Li Chengfeng.

Besides him, various rogue cultivators and forces were searching everywhere like ants on a hot pot, hoping to capture or kill Li Chengfeng, but all without exception, they returned empty-handed.

The old guy walked further and further away, almost a thousand miles out.

Suddenly, he felt something was wrong.

Why would Li Chengfeng attract the attention of the auction house? If he hadn't used the Wind Vortex Technique, people wouldn't have recognized him at all.

Why was he so high-profile and domineering, almost killing Qiu Fengyue with one palm strike? Carefully recalling everything, he suddenly felt something was amiss.

He also thought about why Li Chengfeng would capture the auctioneer Qi Yan, and he immediately remembered his duty—guarding the auction house's treasure vault.

He was instantly scared out of his wits. If something happened to the auction house, Heavenly Fortune Old Ancestor would definitely hold him accountable severely, perhaps even killing him with one strike. So, he hurriedly rushed back.

Just as he returned to within six hundred miles, because he used extreme speed, as fast as lightning, he still couldn't escape Li Chengfeng's divine sense.

Although Li Chengfeng was casually talking here, his divine sense had been paying attention to every movement within six hundred miles.

Once a crisis arrived, he would enter the Life World space as soon as possible, not giving the enemy a chance to find him.

However, this old thing now made Li Chengfeng very unhappy.

The entire treasure vault had already been emptied by him, and now it was time to show this guy some color.

Li Chengfeng immediately took out the Three-Element Blast Talisman, placed it on a stone slab, and wrote the words "Heavenly Fortune Auction House Guardian, a complete idiot."

This was a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain for the old guy.

A cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he muttered to himself, "Remember, your Grandpa Li Chengfeng, Li Chengfeng, took away all the treasures. Now, let's see if you can discover it in time."

After speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.

Just as Li Chengfeng disappeared, the auction house's guardian rushed in.

His divine sense swept through the treasure vault, and he was immediately so angry that smoke came out of his seven orifices, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood.

With a clench of his hand, with a *ka* sound, the second-tier Black Python was crushed to pieces, exploding into a cloud of blood mist.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, I really fell for that devil brat's trick!

What should I do? Li Chengfeng, you damned great demon, I must find you, grind your bones to ashes, skin you, and pull out your tendons!"

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more he regretted it. If he hadn't been greedy for the ten thousand high-grade spirit stones for capturing the other party, he wouldn't have ended up in such a situation.

He suddenly turned his head and saw that there were words on the ground. With a sweep of his divine sense, his eyes immediately turned blood-red, and he roared, "Li Chengfeng, you deserve to die!"

Li Chengfeng took away the treasures but left such words behind, which was clearly an extreme humiliation to him.

He was an old monster in the mid-stage of Core Formation, but he was played around by a Foundation Establishment stage kid and was helpless.

He was furious, and with a palm strike, a Flame Divine Palm appeared in the sky, slamming down suddenly. With a *bang*, it shattered himself into pieces.

He used this strike to vent the anger in his heart; otherwise, he would definitely become depressed.

However, just as his palm struck down, the entire stone slab suddenly exploded into pieces, and an unparalleled force suddenly erupted, blasting directly in all directions.

A huge flame swept around, and before he could react, he was engulfed in it.

He let out a shrill scream, and then he was turned into gas by the flames, disappearing into the huge mushroom cloud.

With Li Chengfeng's ingenious calculations and meticulous layout, he successfully bought himself time and opportunity to escape, while also giving the auction house guardian a painful lesson.

Li Chengfeng saw everything clearly within the Life World space. He didn't have the slightest ripple in his heart regarding everything that happened outside.

Yao Qi also saw this scene, and all of this was deliberately done by Li Chengfeng. Of course, that Hua Zixuan, who claimed to be a supremely clever swindler, also saw it.

Hua Zixuan was stunned and said, "Fellow Daoist Li, what kind of powerful treasure is this? How can its power be so great?

It's almost comparable to a strike from a Nascent Soul cultivator; it's simply unbelievable."

Yao Qi glanced at him and said coldly, "Even if you knew, I wouldn't tell you, you dead swindler.

Return all my treasures to me, or I'll never let you off."

Hua Zixuan spread out her hands helplessly and said, "I'm also penniless now. All my things have been taken away by Fellow Daoist Li. Who can I reason with? If you want them, go ask him."

Yao Qi said angrily, "He will be my master from now on. How can I make demands of my master?"

Saying that, she walked over and gently beat Li Chengfeng's back, saying softly, "Master, were you exhausted from dealing with that evil person just now?

Let this little demon massage and beat you."

Hua Zixuan rubbed her eyes in disbelief and said, "No way, you, the esteemed closed disciple of the Heavenly Demon Old Ancestor, actually recognize a Foundation Establishment cultivator as your master?

Aren't you slapping the entire Heavenly Demon Sect in the face? I think you want to harm Fellow Daoist Li. You're even more evil than me, haha."

She couldn't help but laugh.

Yao Qi glared at him and threatened, "If you say any more, I'll show you some color.

If my master hadn't spoken, I might have made you look for your teeth all over the ground. Stop sowing discord; what doesn't my master understand, what doesn't he know?

Since he accepted me, he has his reasons. That's because I'm obedient and sensible."

Hua Zixuan patted his head and sighed, "These days are really too crazy. Fellow Daoist Li, I admire you more than anyone.

Although your realm is not high, you have the greatest courage! Which of the sects you've offended isn't powerful? These people can't wait to get rid of you."

Li Chengfeng said calmly, "The reason why these so-called righteous people are chasing me is not because I offended them,

but because they want to get the benefits they want from me, such as some of my Daoist techniques and divine powers.

They claim to be eliminating demons and defending the Dao, but in reality, who have I harmed? They are all seeking their own death.

The clear is clear, and the turbid is turbid, and I won't argue for myself.

In short, those greedy people who come to trouble me are coming to die.

For example, like the guardian of this auction house, if he had been conscientious in his duties, he wouldn't have lost the treasure, let alone his life."

Hua Zixuan nodded and flattered, "Fellow Daoist Li, you don't have to remind me like this.

I know my methods are nothing in front of you. Don't worry, I wouldn't dare to harm you.

Now, my whole body is sealed by you. Don't even mention going against you; even an ordinary strong man could beat me until I couldn't find north, south, east, or west.

So I know that if I want to live well, I have to show my value.

I will definitely introduce you to my little junior sister, Ye Bitong. I find that you are also a genius in the Dao of formations. The two of you will definitely cherish each other."
