#644 - Wherever there is war, there I am
In that instant, Li Chengfeng's mind was as clear as a mirror, instantly perceiving the other party's conspiracy.
He realized that what the other party was plotting was precisely the Soul-Extinguishing Sword hidden deep within his divine sense.
This sword energy, refined over countless years, was already comparable to the realm of a half-step God Transformation. Once fully unleashed, it would condense sword intent into a blade, aimed directly at the soul, an unparalleled killing technique.
The other party was clearly a person with deep schemes and skilled at calculation.
All his actions, seemingly without order, were in fact step by step, every subtle movement was for that final strike—directly targeting Li Chengfeng's soul, seeking a sure kill with no unnecessary delay.
Everything before was just a smokescreen, a layout to catch people off guard.
Li Chengfeng couldn't help but feel a sense of 'there's always someone stronger'.
At this level, all calculations became unintentional yet deliberate, fraught with dangers, almost imperceptible, as if hidden in every corner of the world, ready to erupt at any moment.
However, Li Chengfeng was not entirely unprepared. He possessed a Substitute Puppet, which was originally his backup plan for dealing with crises.
But the other party had obviously seen through everything. His target was Li Chengfeng's soul, not his physical body. The Substitute Puppet, after all, could not replace the soul. This was precisely how deep the other party's calculation went, leaving one in admiration.
Facing the other party's ultimate sword strike, Li Chengfeng's lips curled into a faint smile, his eyes闪烁 with confident light. He suddenly waved his hand, and the Soul Severing Art was instantly unleashed.
Two rays of light collided in the air. Li Chengfeng's Sword of Divine Sense was condensed from his own soul sword intent, born specifically to kill the souls of others. The ruthlessness of its secret art was evident.
With a 'poof' sound, the other party's Sword of Divine Sense instantly collapsed under Li Chengfeng's Soul Severing Art, followed by a sigh and a scream.
The other party obviously did not expect that Li Chengfeng would have such a strange move.
The moment Li Chengfeng shattered the other party's sword intent, he reached out and grabbed the dissipating divine sense and sword intent.
Containing the other party's aura, Li Chengfeng's heart stirred, and he immediately used the Heaven and Earth Self-Sealing Art to firmly seal it.
A trace of disbelief was revealed in the sealed divine sense. He never expected that his all-out, resource-consuming, ultimate strike would not kill a Yuan Ying stage cultivator. This was simply a great surprise to him.
Li Chengfeng looked at him with a smile and said leisurely, "You must be a big shot from the North Sea, right? Tell me your name so I can broaden my horizons."
The other party snorted coldly and said, "You and I are both smart people, why play these tricks?
I won't tell you my name. Kill me if you want, destroy me if you want.
My main body has already severed contact with this wisp of divine sense. You can do whatever you want, it won't hurt my main body."
Li Chengfeng nodded and said, "As expected, a difficult character. But you must also understand that as long as your aura is here, even if the connection is severed, you are from the same source, and he will not escape my spell kill."
The divine sense looked at Li Chengfeng with disdain and said, "That's just wishful thinking. Do you really think that with your strength in the early Yuan Ying stage, you can kill my main body across hundreds of thousands of miles? You're just being sentimental and self-righteous."
Li Chengfeng said with a smile, "No, it's not the time yet. The resources I used to launch this war are almost used up, but there will be another war next."
He looked towards the Demon Race and the Far North, "There are still two outsiders to deal with. The lives of these aliens are the best reward for me."
The other party suddenly felt a sense of horror and said, "Li Chengfeng, you're a madman! You launched the war just for cultivation resources, then wherever you go, there will be constant war!"
Li Chengfeng shook his head and said, "You're wrong. I don't actively launch wars. I just follow the general trend. Wherever there is war, there I am.
I also hope that the human world is peaceful, even if cultivation is a little slower, as long as my safety is guaranteed.
But look at this dog-eat-dog world. I didn't provoke your North Sea, but you are constantly opposing me.
So I have already seen through it. Instead of waiting for you to plot against me, it is better to kill you back.
The war in the North Sea will one day be crushed under my iron cavalry."
At this moment, in Li Chengfeng's eyes, that wisp of divine sense seemed to see countless war storms, and the future scene made his scalp tingle.
Only at this moment did he truly realize Li Chengfeng's strength and ruthlessness.
How powerful was his main body? No matter who he plotted against or who he wanted to kill, he had never failed.
The Soul-Extinguishing Sword was his specialty, but today he fell into Li Chengfeng's hands. Annoyance, pain, and grief lingered in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.
Li Chengfeng didn't want to launch a curse now, because the distance was too far, and even if he cursed the other party, the effect would be minimal.
He said that he would need to condense another million years of lifespan before he could show the other party some color. However, he also understood that the one who plotted against him was not necessarily the leader of the North Sea, but should be a high-level figure like a Supreme Elder.
The other party's high-level figures were so powerful and their calculations were so profound, it was evident that dealing with the North Sea would be a near-death experience.
However, no matter what, this hatred and resentment with the North Sea could never be resolved. So, he left here, set up his escape light, and soared into the sky.
His current speed had reached an unbelievable level. Soon, he returned to the Gongsun family.
The Gongsun family had now been converted into a White Tiger Legion garrison. Qingyang was familiarizing himself with his forbidden armor, and Li Chengfeng had also sent a forbidden armor envoy team to be stationed here.
These were cultivated by Sima Jieao, specializing in the research, distribution, and drawing of forbidden armor. Their arrival quickly allowed hundreds of cultivators of the White Tiger Legion to form forbidden armor cultivators, which made Baihu very happy.
Seeing Li Chengfeng come back with a spring breeze on his face, Qingyang asked, "When are you going to intercept the Demon Race and the Evil Dragon Race?
Now that I understand the current situation, these two tumors must be eradicated, otherwise we will not have the energy to deal with the North Sea's group of dog-day spirit world powers."
Li Chengfeng agreed, "I can understand your mood. You just came out of seclusion and want to have a battle. Well, you leave this place to Sima Jieao to handle."
Sima Jieao cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Lord, for your appreciation. Jieao will certainly not disgrace his mission."
Baihu looked at him and said, "This is your military advisor, right? Not bad. He managed the Far West very well, and now he is on the agenda. I sent him to take over here and control the Evil Dragon Group. He is very experienced and can quickly communicate with these dissenters."
Sima Qian's current strength is no longer what it used to be, and he is extremely powerful. With the blessing of the forbidden armor, he has also reached the late Yuan Ying stage. Baihu looked at him and said, "Okay, I'll leave it to you here."
He looked at Li Chengfeng and said, "Do you mean to take me to find Suzaku?"
Li Chengfeng nodded and said, "That's right, that's exactly what I mean.
Now we are not in a hurry to launch a war. We must know that our territory is not yet stable, and some other forces are eager for us to take the lead.
So, instead of doing this, it is better to stabilize the situation and wait and see. First find Suzaku and Xuanwu, gather the four major legions, and the chances of winning will be much greater."
