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

#438 - Tear off the hypocritical veil of Jiuxuan Patriarch

Just as Li Chengfeng was preparing to easily resolve this swamp predicament, the surrounding restrictions suddenly fluctuated violently, and an even more dangerous aura quietly arrived.

Fairy Lingyan had now become his most dangerous enemy.

She suddenly appeared behind Li Chengfeng, her eyes bloodshot, her face contorted, and she growled through gritted teeth, "Die, Li Chengfeng! Your soul will become nourishment for my advancement!"

Fairy Lingyan's hands were no longer human-like, but had transformed into the terrifying mandibles of the Gold Devouring Bugs, flashing with a chilling light that made one's heart palpitate, and they bit fiercely towards Li Chengfeng's shoulders.

These Gold Devouring Bug mandibles were fused from the mandibles of third-order Gold Devouring Bugs, and their power was enough to instantly tear apart magical treasures and devour everything.

During her experiments, Fairy Lingyan had used these terrifying mandibles to explode the limbs and arms of many powerful enemies, and now she had refined them for her own use, greatly increasing her strength.

Li Chengfeng stood firm as a rock in the swamp, his body instantly covered with a layer of fine scales, as hard as dragon scales.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling and colorful flame rose from between the scales, an external manifestation of the power within his body, invisibly revealing his extraordinary nature.

Faced with the fierce attack of Fairy Lingyan's Gold Devouring Bug mandibles, Li Chengfeng not only did not retreat, but instead used this flame power.

So that the moment Fairy Lingyan's mandibles touched his shoulders, a "crackling" sound of breaking was heard, accompanied by Fairy Lingyan's heart-wrenching scream.

That flame was Li Chengfeng's unique secret technique—Void Fire, which was formless and intangible, yet could burn everything, including Fairy Lingyan's seemingly indestructible Gold Devouring Bug mandibles.

The flame spread along the mandibles to her whole body, causing Fairy Lingyan to feel unprecedented fear and despair.

She tried to break free, but it was too late, the five Blood Shadow clones had appeared around her like ghosts, each using different spells to firmly imprison her limbs, head, and shoulders.

Especially the last Blood Shadow clone, holding the Heaven and Earth Self-Sealing Seal, directly sealed the void above her head, completely depriving her of the ability to resist.

With a thought from Li Chengfeng, the five Blood Shadows instantly disappeared with Fairy Lingyan, teleported to the Life World space, and handed over to Green Kai for research.

For Li Chengfeng, Fairy Lingyan, as the mother worm of the Gold Devouring Bugs and having completed her transformation, was of immeasurable research value.

Her way of thinking, body structure, and even that huge insect nest were valuable resources for Li Chengfeng to improve his strength and breed Gold Devouring Bugs.

Therefore, Li Chengfeng decided not to kill her for the time being, and make plans after her value had been completely squeezed out.

After solving Fairy Lingyan, Li Chengfeng suddenly exerted his strength, and the Void Fire under his feet spewed out like a volcanic eruption, lifting him up from the swamp and out of that restricted area.

Then, he waved his hands and unleashed a series of complex restriction techniques, forming a fierce collision with the restrictions laid down by Old Ancestor Entering Soul.

The entire space seemed to be torn in half, with restrictions constantly exploding against each other, releasing world-destroying energy.

Old Ancestor Nine Profound tried to use restrictions to suppress Li Chengfeng, but he did not expect that Li Chengfeng also had a deep understanding of the Dao of Restrictions.

He cleverly used his knowledge of restrictions to break Old Ancestor Entering Soul's restrictions one by one, causing them to gradually become ineffective.

Old Ancestor Nine Profound's roar echoed in the space, his eyes filled with unwillingness and anger.

Faced with Li Chengfeng's challenge, he found that he was gradually losing his advantage in the restriction duel, which was undoubtedly a huge blow to him.

He knew that as a conservative, he relied too much on the restrictions in the "Soul Restriction Treasure Book", while Li Chengfeng was able to find another way, draw inferences from one instance, and create incredible restriction methods.

As time went by, Old Ancestor Nine Profound felt more and more powerless.

He realized that he was not only unable to compete with Li Chengfeng in strength, but also far surpassed by the other party in wisdom.

Li Chengfeng's growth rate was astonishing, his restrictions would only become stronger and stronger, while he seemed to have become the other party's whetstone, constantly helping him sharpen his edge.

"Li Chengfeng, you damned great demon!" Old Ancestor Nine Profound roared, "Don't think I can't do anything to you! Don't think I can't do anything to you.

You quickly release my disciple, otherwise I will make you wish you were dead.

Although we seem to be evenly matched, I have the Sea Eye to help with endless spiritual energy as a backing, what about you?

You are just a newly advanced Core Formation stage cultivator, over time, your mana will be exhausted and you will only die."

However, his threat seemed so pale and powerless in front of Li Chengfeng.

Li Chengfeng still maintained that bright smile, as if everything was under his control. "Thank you for your concern, Old Ancestor Nine Profound."

He said lightly, "Release your disciple? Heh, keep dreaming.

Don't pretend to be compassionate here. To put it nicely, she is your disciple, to put it bluntly, she is just a tool in your hands.

You bewitched her to combine with the mother worm of the Gold Devouring Bugs and turned her into an insect nest, does she still have a self? She is just a tool for you to produce Gold Devouring Bugs.

Don't pretend to be compassionate here, she is just a tool in your hands."

Li Chengfeng's words were sharp, directly pointing out Old Ancestor Nine Profound's hypocrisy and ruthlessness.

He revealed the cruel fact that Old Ancestor Nine Profound used his disciple Lingyan Fairy Kang Wei to combine with the Gold Devouring Bug mother worm and turned her into an insect nest.

He also pointed out Old Ancestor Nine Profound's ugly behavior of using others and calculating his relatives. These words were like sharp blades, deeply hurting Old Ancestor Nine Profound's heart.

"You... you are talking nonsense!" Old Ancestor Nine Profound retorted in a trembling voice, "I did that for..."

However, his words were interrupted by Li Chengfeng before he could finish.

"For what? For your own immortality? For your ambition and desire?" Li Chengfeng sneered, "You haven't done anything good in your life!

First you plotted against your master, then you plotted against your spiritual insects, Old Ancestor Divine Sense, and now you are plotting against your own disciple.

Which of the relatives related to you has had a good ending? You are a complete bastard!"

Li Chengfeng's every word was like a heavy hammer hitting Old Ancestor Nine Profound's heart, making him unable to refute.

Old Ancestor Nine Profound was furious and roared hysterically: "Li Chengfeng, you traitor! You will eventually suffer the consequences of your actions.

What you have done is no different from the path of the demonic way. How many cultivators have died at your hands, tens of thousands? Today, I am the envoy who acts on behalf of heaven.

Boy, you forced me to do this! You claim to have taken the Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Milk? Hmph, that is just insect nest milk, specially designed for breeding golden insect eggs.

Anyone who drinks this liquid will be transformed into a Gold Devouring Insect, haha, you will not escape this disaster, and in the future you will be half-human and half-ghost!"

Faced with the old ancestor's roar, Li Chengfeng's expression was calm, the light of restrictions flowed in his hands, and he said with a smile: "Old Ancestor Nine Profound, today there will be a battle between you and me, your remnant soul is not worthy of living in this world.

As for that Divine Sense Insect, I have also found a way for it to return, its vitality is so tenacious that you cannot imagine.

Since you have reached the end of your rope, defeat is only a matter of time, I have not taken the Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Milk."

"You said you haven't taken the Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Milk?" Old Ancestor Nine Profound was incredulous, his tone full of disbelief, "When cultivators break through, they all rely on this treasure to strengthen their foundation, this is common sense, why are you an exception?"

Li Chengfeng chuckled, his eyes flashing with the light of wisdom: "Since I was young, I have known that there is no free lunch in the world, and pie does not fall from the sky.

Without full certainty, how dare I taste it lightly? Therefore, I carefully observed and studied diligently, and finally revealed its secret.

You lured me here, using the Soul Restriction Treasure Book as bait, and I took advantage of the situation and played along.

Now, your plan has been completely broken, and the insect nest Lingyan Fairy is also in my hands, may I ask, what other means can you use?"

After saying that, Li Chengfeng waved his hand gently, and several jade bottles appeared in his hand, with a faint spiritual mist surrounding the bottles, making them look particularly mysterious and unpredictable.

Seeing this, Old Ancestor Nine Profound was even more shocked, his heart filled with mixed feelings, and he was speechless for a moment.
