Chapter 172 Sigh, Golden Immortals Are Indeed Hard to Kill
If he could find the opponent’s weakness in time, he might not need to use a fifth of it...
Li Changshou took a deep breath and circulated the immortal power in his body. Wisps of Dao runes circled around him.
It was free and natural.
The surrounding seawater seemed to have suddenly disappeared. The sleeves of Li Changshou’s long robe fluttered gently, and his long hair that was tied up with a strap fluttered slightly as well.
He was about to take a step forward when he turned around and asked, “Great Daoist Master, can I borrow your name?”.
“Of course.” Grandmaster Xuan Du smiled and squinted. “Go ahead.”
Li Changshou Dao saluted and did not dare to delay.
On the other side, the three miniature trapping arrays known as the ‘Cosmic Shackles’, had insufficient spiritual energy and were about to be broken through by the Golden Immortal. As for his three paper effigies, he did not want them to be injured.
The creation of a new paper effigy... was quite costly.
His body trembled and turned into a stream of water that disappeared.
Great Daoist Master Xuan Du pointed behind him and a chair appeared out of nowhere. He lifted his long robe and sat down as if he was watching a good show.
The Mysterious Yellow Pagoda of Heaven and Earth, formed from the Qi of Mother Xuanhuang, was obtained by the Three Pure Ones.
When he was becoming a Saint, he was only short of a chance to become a Saint. He had the merit of establishing Ren School. The Heavenly Dao had given him too much. He did not want to be tainted by the merit, so he injected most of the merit from becoming a Saint into the pagoda.
Placing the pagoda above one’s head would allow one to be invincible. It was of the same level as the Heaven-Splitting Three-Piece Set
-Pangu Banner, Taiji Painting, and the East Emperor Bell!
With the shadow of the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda protecting him, Great Daoist Master Xuan Du was not worried about Li Changshou’s safety at all. He was not afraid that he would lose the... junior brother seedling whom he had been waiting for hundreds of thousands of years, due to his carelessness...
However, Li Changshou still maintained his vigilance.
That was because the Great Daoist Master had told him that there were prerequisites such as Connate numinous treasures and Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals.
Although the Great Daoist Master was beside him, what if the ferocious mosquito that could absorb three grades of merit from twelfth-grade Merit Lotuses, suddenly attacked him?
Therefore, when Li Changshou charged towards Ao Yi, he had already thought of several ways to fight. He wanted to end the battle quickly...
First step:
Put up a feint, make a false front, pretend to be weak, confuse the truth with falsehood.
Li Changshou focused his attention on controlling the four paper effigies. His main body quickly rushed in front of Ao Yi and appeared.
He turned his head slightly and looked at Ao Yi, who was being held down by the old paper effigy. His calm voice could be heard everywhere. “I, Xuan Du, have come to help His Highness on His Majesty’s orders. Ha-Who are you demons? Hurry up and surrender!”
Xuan... Xuan Du... the Little Daoist Master?
The Great Daoist Master, who was hiding in the dark and watching the show, leaned back and laughed. He almost flipped over together with his seat.
The fake Golden Immortal realm expert of the Sea Clan, who had rushed over aggressively, suddenly stopped in his tracks. His eyes were filled with shock as he sized up Li Changshou...
The Sea Clan’s expert could see through the illusions and see through the transformation technique. The last thing he saw was a middle-aged man’s face.
Immediately after, waves of Dao runes surged out from Li Changshou’s body. Some astonishing auras surged into the sea, but they instantly quietened down...
Heavenly Immortal realm?
The early-stage?
Ao Yi immediately sensed the difference in strength between the enemy and his teammates. He hurriedly said, “Fellow Daoist, please hide with me!”
Li Changshou smiled indifferently. He ignored the young and energetic Second Sect Master and continued speaking.
“Four Guardians, retreat quickly.”
The old woman, as well as the three paper effigies who had just blocked the Golden Immortal expert with a miniature array formation, Dao saluted Li Changshou and said, “Yes.”
The four paper effigies cast Water Escape and quickly dispersed in two directions. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared.
At that moment, the fake Golden Immortal of the Sea Clan’s rebellion army also reacted. He stared at Li Changshou, and tried to suppress him with the pressure of the Golden Immortal.
That fellow’s Golden Immortal pressure actually did not affect Li Changshou much.
However, once Li Changshou came up with a strategy for the battle, he would naturally carry out the plan without any accidents.
His aura was suppressed and he frowned slightly. His performance was no different from that of an early-stage Heaven Immortal cultivator.
Ao Yi was instantly worried...
At that moment, Li Changshou had already pasted the two golden talismans on his arms...
[Immortal Power Surge Talisman): After activating this talisman, you can unleash your immortal power in the blink of an eye and condense a powerful attack. It will greatly increase the power of the spell.
That was not all. Li Changshou had secretly captured a few ‘Ultimate’ paper effigies that he had never used before.
‘Ultimate’: Meaning the ultimate technique.
The fake Golden Immortal of the Sea Clan’s rebellion army sneered and cursed, “A mere Heaven Immortal realm cultivator is courting death!”
“Haha! Ignorant demon!”
Li Changshou raised his head and laughed loudly. He pushed Ao Yi downwards and secretly activated the restriction on the Immortal Sense Flame of Heart poisonous pill. He sprinkled some white powder with his left hand and exclaimed, “Turning turbid with one blow!”
historical
Li Changshou’s body was covered in a white fog.
As soon as the white fog appeared, the immortal senses that were inspecting him were immediately blocked outside.
In the next moment, four figures walked out of the white fog. They cast an illusion technique together. They were all ordinary-looking. They were all early-stage Heaven Immortal realm cultivators. Each of them held a miniature array disc!
In the courtyard, the Great Daoist Master was already smiling and covering his eyes. He could not bear to look at them.
Young Daoist Master Xuan Du transformed three impurities in one breath...
That is the talent of Ren School!
The mystical ability of the Man-Forming Paper Cutouts became so fancy because of this fellow!
At that moment, Ao Yi’s eyes were filled with shock...
The Grand Pure One’s Three Purities mystical ability was said to be the most powerful one in the world. The Grand Pure One had directly transformed into three Saints, and it was naturally not a problem for him to sweep through the Primordial World!
Could it be that this ‘three impurities in one breath’ is a secret technique of Ren School?
The most shocked one was naturally Li Changshou’s enemy, the fake Golden Immortal of the Sea Clan.
At that moment, the fake Golden Immortal glared angrily at Li Changshou’s four figures. He found them to be suspicious...
However, his mind was influenced by brutality, so he naturally would not retreat in shock. Furthermore, Li Changshou did not wait for that person to explode. The four figures had already rushed forward!
Second step:
“Turn the falsehood to reality, seize the initiative, puzzle others, and find the enemy’s flaws!”
“I’m not afraid of you, you deceiver!”
For some reason, the fake Golden Immortal of the Sea Clan felt a little vexed... He kept thinking about the unbearable situation that he was in when he was seeking pleasure.
Although the monster’s mind could not calm down, it appeared even more ferocious. It opened its mouth and spat out rays of light.
The beam of light actually condensed into blood-stained arrows that transformed into a rain of arrows in the seawater and shot towards Li Changshou’s four figures!
Li Changshou smiled slightly. The paper Daoist on the left raised the array disc in his hand and shot out dozens of streams of light. Instantly, he activated a protective array formation and blocked the flying arrows.
The other three figures threw out the array discs in their hands one by one. The three array discs were split into three horizontal pieces, opening up three array formations!
Although it was a miniature array formation and its spiritual power could not last for long, it still had at least 60% of the original array’s power when it exploded in an instant!
The first trapping array was the Cosmic Shackles that locked onto the universe. It had previously proven that it could trap the fake Golden Immortal.
The second was a killing array, the Ten Thousand Swords Soul-Extinguishing Array’s spiritual energy turned into Sword Qi that filled the sky, forming a huge sword that slashed forward!
The third was a poisonous array formation, the Water Yin Lightning, and a pool of black water appeared beneath the hideous fake Golden Immortal’s feet...
The fake Golden Immortal did not expect Li Changshou’s attack to be so ferocious. His surroundings were temporarily locked and he could not dodge for a moment.
However, how could he sit there and wait for death? Why should he dodge?
He was just a mere Heaven Immortal!
The fake Golden Immortal of the Sea Clan spat out three treasure beads and blew the pearl in front of him towards the front. A sanguine glow surged out from his body and easily blocked the black water beneath his feet.
The pearl flew over and shattered the flying sword in front of it!
The power of the Golden Immortal realm was unparalleled!
Li Changshou remained calm.
The four figures each took out a brush and flew around in the seawater without any obstruction. They had already stabilized themselves in all directions. They seemed to be array formations...
The four figures lifted their brushes at the same time and produced a series of bubbles in the seawater, drawing four “dragons” with their brushes.
The four dragons instantly came to life and charged at the fake Golden Immortal.
Immediately after, the four brushes were used for writing sutras. The sutras immediately turned into various weapons and hundreds of flying beasts that charged towards the fake Golden Immortal from the Sea Clan from all directions.
Unfortunately, the miniature array that sealed the universe had already exhausted its spiritual energy. The fake Golden Immortal leaped up and dodged the black water and shattered the dragon that had been drawn. It was instantly engulfed by the flying beasts that filled the sky...
This attack... Huh? It doesn’t hurt?
The fake Golden Immortal was also puzzled.
He did not know that, but he quickly realized that one of the attacks from all directions was much stronger than the other three.
One of them is using a numinous treasure while the other three are using superior Immortal Treasures?
The fake Golden Immortal was feeling vexed. He did not think too much about it when he saw that flaw. He calmly withstood a few waves of attacks. Suddenly, his body flashed and he charged towards the most powerful attack!
At this moment!
A hint of panic flashed across Li Changshou’s face. He took half a step back and shouted, “Do you think I’m afraid of you?!”
The numinous treasure, the Judge’s Brush, that was in his hand moved as fast as an illusion. He quickly wrote down a huge word — ‘Speed’.
All of a sudden, out of everyone’s expectations, Li Changshou did not dodge. Instead, he suddenly pounced forward and shattered the word... His figure flashed and disappeared strangely! When he appeared again, he was already behind the fake Golden Immortal of the Sea Clan. The two of them had their backs facing each other and were less than two feet apart!
That was the real sutra-creation mystical ability!
Li Changshou suddenly turned around and struck the fake Golden Immortal’s back with all his might, causing the fake Golden Immortal to stumble slightly.
Almost at the same time, the three figures in the surroundings each wrote the word ‘Speed’. They collided with the words that were drawn and flashed to the side of the Sea Clan expert!
This Sea Clan expert had never seen such a scene before.
However, he had been through the sea and the bed of the noble lady of the Sea Clan for a long time. Although he was flustered, his reaction was not slow. A powerful wave of immortal power erupted around him, wanting to push them away.
At that moment, without any warning, the Cosmic Shackles appeared around the fake Golden Immortal of the Sea Clan again. It forcefully cut off the immortal power!
The four figures around him were naturally paper effigies!
At that moment, the paper effigies rushed forward decisively. One of them slapped the fake Golden Immortal of the Sea Clan and opened their arms!
Four immortal powers of the same origin intertwined, forming chains that instantly wrapped the fake Golden Immortal up like he was a dumpling...
The fake Golden Immortal could not move. He knew that he had fallen into a trap. He looked up with all his might!
Li Changshou stood quietly in the seawater a thousand feet above him. He casually threw down miniature array foundations the size of a chessboard.
Trapping arrays, killing arrays, trapping arrays, killing arrays, killing arrays...
At that moment, dozens of miniature array formations were thrown out by Li Changshou.
Although the effect was not bad, his heart ached...
The sky was filled with streams of light. The Cosmic Shackles was broken again.
The fake Golden Immortal below could only raise his head and stare angrily. He could not use his cultivation level at all.
The four paper effigies who had trapped the fake Golden Immortal circulated their immortal powers. They opened their mouths and spat out waves of True Samadhi Flames. The fake Golden Immortal was instantly engulfed by the True Samadhi Flames. It struggled non-stop and was burned beyond recognition...
The attacks from above continued, and the True Flames below burned even more intensely.
After a while, the fake Golden Immortal no longer had any aura. It was motionless like a burnt piece of wood. The four paper effigies that had locked him up had been burned to ashes by the True Flames that he had released.
The immortal powers of the four paper Daoists were not wasted at all. They had all turned into the True Samadhi Flames...
In the air, Li Changshou swept his sleeve, shook his head slightly, and was about to leave.
Something unexpected happened!
The withered wood below suddenly split open. A sanguine glow flew out from it. It was actually a flying knife made of blood. It appeared under “Li Changshou’s” feet at lightning speed and cut “Li Changshou” into two!
The withered tree trembled slightly and slowly stood up. Its aura gradually recovered, and the terrifying wounds on its body rapidly healed. A blood lotus on its chest kept flashing...
“Haha, hahaha!”
The fake Golden Immortal of the Sea Clan raised his head and laughed loudly. His smile was filled with mockery and joy. He was feeling the excitement of being a winner...
However, he stopped laughing halfway.
In the seawater above, the figure that was cut in half turned into two pieces of paper and floated gently in the immortal light.
Pfff...
With a simple sound, a jade flute pierced through the blood lotus from behind the Sea Clan expert. After the jade flute, a figure slowly condensed. A golden ray of light flashed in his sleeves. Two Immortal Power Surge Talismans had been activated. The immortal power of the late-stage Heavenly Immortal realm erupted along with the jade flute!
The blood lotus exploded. The fake Golden Immortal from the Sea Clan, who was ruined beyond recognition, was on the verge of collapsing. Waves of poisonous fog surrounded his essence soul, which had been severely injured previously... His quality was inferior so he had to make up for it with quantity.
Li Changshou released the jade flute. He had already made up his mind to abandon the numinous treasure. While the Immortal Power Surge Talisman could be used in an instant, the immortal power in his body turned into the True Samadhi Flames.
Flames surged and engulfed the person’s essence soul and body instantly...
A fake Golden Immortal could still be considered a Golden Immortal. After turning into ashes, he might not be much stronger than a Heaven Immortal or Perfected Immortal.
Numerous immortal senses captured that scene from all over the city. Even the Sea Clan and dragon race experts, who were at the Golden Immortal realm, felt a chilly feeling in their hearts...
For some reason, they started to feel frustrated. For some reason, all kinds of indescribable scenes appeared.
“You’re just a traitor. How dare you act fierce in front of me, Little Daoist Master Xuan Du!?! With me here today, no one can hurt His Highness Ao Yi.”
Li Changshou snorted and continued pretentiously, “Where are the four Guardians? Come and deal with the remnant souls.”
With that, his body turned into a stream of water and he used Water Escape to quickly disappear. The four paper effigies from before had returned. This time, they had to work hard. The paper effigies who were at the Heaven Immortal realm had “personally” taken action. It was a form of respect for the Golden Immortal.
The old woman was holding a wooden fish and the old man was holding a clapper. The young lady was holding a Soul-Bewitching Bell. The handsome young man smiled and took out a trumpet Dharma artifact...
Amidst the melodious and sorrowful tune, Li Changshou’s main body had already rushed to the courtyard where the Great Daoist Master was.
Golden Immortals are really not easy to kill...
There were fifty-six miniature array formation foundations, four ‘Ultimate’ paper effigies, one ‘God’ paper effigy, two Immortal Surge Talismans, three brush-type superior-grade Immortal Treasures, twelve essence soul poisonous pills that he could refine at present...
Uh, that doesn’t seem to be the case.
He did not know if it was because of the refinement process, but his two Spirit-Pill-level Flame Of Heart pills had actually... shattered again...
