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

#554 - Fierce Battle in the Early Stage of Yuanying

Leng Zizai's mind was flooded with alarm bells, and he desperately tried to dodge, unwilling to face that nightmare-like past.

He stammered in agreement, but in his heart, he already had other plans.

However, just as he was distracted, a strong sense of crisis suddenly struck.

"Illusion!" Leng Zizai suddenly woke up, and the jade stone hanging around his neck instantly bloomed with extremely dazzling magic light. It was his amulet to resist inner demons, and it saved his life at a critical moment.

At the same time, sword lights from all directions poured down like a rainstorm. He immediately waved his double hammers, his figure agile, using both hands at the same time. Although he looked disheveled, he forced a path out of the rain of swords.

This experience gave Leng Zizai a new understanding of Li Chengfeng's strength.

He knew that there was no false reputation beneath a great name, and every bit of Li Chengfeng's strength was earned through hard work in the cultivation world.

At this moment, Leng Zizai's natal magic weapon was covered with mottled marks, each one a witness to the fierce confrontation with the sword light.

If the heart demon stone around his neck hadn't shone in time to protect him, he would have probably turned into dust in this endless rain of swords.

Having just fought his way out of the airtight sword screen, he gripped the double hammers tightly in his hands, as if they had become a solid shield against all storms.

Fire and poison intertwined to form two circular protective lights, dissolving the sword lights that tried to penetrate his defense one by one. Although the light flickered, he remained safe and sound.

Leng Zizai's face was more solemn than ever before. He knew that if he didn't do his best, he would probably not be able to escape this calamity today.

He had heard about Li Chengfeng's legend—that he was a rare opponent in the same realm, and even when facing opponents stronger than himself, he could always turn danger into safety with his wit or speed.

Today, he finally had the opportunity to face this legendary powerhouse head-on, and his heart was filled with both anticipation and apprehension.

Just as he was preparing to unleash his strongest attack, a sword light containing the power of stars cut through the sky, pointing directly at his face.

The power contained in that sword light made him feel the loss of power in an instant, as if his own strength was being drawn away by this stellar force.

He roared angrily, and the potential in his body was completely stimulated. A Dharma idol appeared behind him—a true demon Dharma idol, with two heads and four arms, one head burning with flames and the other shrouded in poisonous mist, its aura astonishing.

He suddenly threw out four punches, the fist wind carrying the dual power of flame and poison, colliding head-on with the starlight. With a loud "boom," the starlight was actually smashed to pieces by him.

This strike, although showing divine power, also made him secretly startled.

If he hadn't been in his prime at the moment, and the opponent's attack hadn't reached its peak, he probably wouldn't have been able to defuse it so easily.

This kind of high-intensity battle for a long time consumes a lot of his mana. If he can't end the battle quickly, the consequences will be disastrous.

But Li Chengfeng's voice came from all directions like a ghost, with a hint of playfulness and confidence: "Leng Zizai, the cage you set up today is just self-imprisonment.

Although I didn't expect your appearance, I have always been cautious in my actions, and I have already pushed my own Core Formation Stage offense and defense to the extreme, and my strength has improved again.

In addition to my rich combat experience and bizarre and changeable methods, this trip is not only not waiting for a rabbit, but also throwing yourself into a trap."

"If you had chosen to leave quietly at the beginning, I might not have been able to do anything about you, and you could have continued to pursue your position as the Fire Demon Clan leader.

But unfortunately, you have stepped into this battlefield, and there is no chance to retreat completely." Li Chengfeng's words contained both regret for Leng Zizai and certainty about the coming victory.

Those voices, like invisible magic claws, tightly strangled Leng Zizai's throat from all directions, plunging his heart into unprecedented icy coldness.

He realized that he had completely fallen into Li Chengfeng's control, and if he didn't take action again, he would probably be in a desperate situation.

Li Chengfeng's words, although not directly showing invincible power, were like sharp blades, deeply piercing his self-esteem and arousing his strong will to resist.

"Damn Li Chengfeng, get out of here! If you have the ability, don't hide your head and show your tail!" Leng Zizai suddenly shouted coldly, his voice filled with unyieldingness and anger.

As soon as he finished speaking, lightning surged behind him, and three lightning dragons broke through the air, each exuding the terrifying power of a late-stage Core Formation expert, indestructible and unstoppable.

The lightning exploded, shaking the space. Under such close-range bombardment, the destructive power contained in the three lightning dragons was enough to make any creature fear, even a powerhouse like Leng Zizai was no exception.

He knew the horror of lightning spells and dared not be negligent in the slightest. He roared and spewed out a thick puff of poisonous smoke.

This poisonous smoke quickly condensed in the air, turning into a beautiful woman, smiling charmingly, but instantly transformed into a terrifying giant skull, rushing towards the three lightning dragons.

With a "crack, crack" sound, the skull opened its huge mouth and devoured the three lightning dragons one by one.

However, this seemingly powerful defense collapsed instantly under the violent force of the thunder, and the entire skull, along with the thunder, exploded into tiny spots of light. The destruction of that top-grade magic weapon made Leng Zizai feel heartbroken, but at the critical moment of life and death, he had no time to care.

At this moment, a sword light cut through the sky like lightning, and the weirdness and sharpness of the Zhanhui Sword made Leng Zizai's scalp tingle.

His thoughts seemed to be taken back to a moment ago by this sword, but Li Chengfeng's attack was already close at hand.

Twelve flying swords quickly converged into a giant sword in the air, carrying the power of ten thousand jun, and slashed fiercely at Leng Zizai.

"Ten Thousand Swords Return to One!" Li Chengfeng's voice resounded through the sky along with the roar of the sword light.

The sword light spurted out, all methods returned to one, and that terrifying power seemed to gather all the power in the world, slashing down fiercely on Leng Zizai's head.

In this instant, the giant sword had arrived, and Leng Zizai knew that dodging was too late, so he could only do his best to explode all the aura in his body.

The armor exploded with a bang, turning into fragments all over the sky, and even the Dharma idol he relied on to save his life was split in two by the giant sword, the scene was shocking.

However, as the demonic energy rolled, Leng Zizai disappeared like a ghost, and when he reappeared, he was behind Li Chengfeng.

A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Did you think that only you have a substitute puppet? The substitute technique is not uncommon in the cultivation world, it's just not as exquisite as yours.

Just now, it was my substitute technique that saved my life."

After saying that, he suddenly grabbed at Li Chengfeng's back, but unexpectedly grabbed another substitute puppet.

With a loud bang, the puppet's body exploded, and the power of the Six Yuan Blast instantly erupted, and the terrifying power backlashed.

Although Leng Zizai spat out a mouthful of blood in time and quickly retreated, he was still seriously injured, his clothes were ragged, and his breath was weak.

He gritted his teeth, glared angrily, and hated Li Chengfeng's insidious methods to the bone: "Li Chengfeng, you shameless dog thief! You don't dare to fight head-on, you only use these despicable conspiracy methods!"

Just as he was furious, the ground beneath his feet suddenly shook violently, and countless Yellow Spring waters poured out like boiling lava, instantly engulfing his feet.

He let out a scream, lost his balance, and could only barely use escape techniques to fly into the air. But it was too late, his feet had been completely washed away by the Yellow Spring water. With a "crack" sound, only half of the leg bone was left, bloody and appalling.
