Legend of the Great Sage (Chapter 601-Chapter 700)

Li’l Red opened his huge mouth again as if he wanted to try out the taste of that dish.

Smack! Li Qingshan slapped his head. “That means I’ll be throwing you into the pot!”

Li’l Red immediately dove into the water. His figure rapidly shrank to the size of a regular carp, turning into a red smear and swimming towards Moon Court lake.



Right now, the forces of the human cultivators were all caught up in the commandery city, while he had beat up the entire Daemon race of the Ruyi commandery until they feared him. Basically, everyone would be either fleeing or surrendering at the rumor of his arrival in all the regions of water he had refined.

He was unable to think of any ignorant bastard who would be bold enough to intercept and kill his subordinate. After dealing with this, his clone took off, directly plunging into the depths of the clouds and flying towards the commandery city.

Beneath the huge snow mountain, Li Qingshan thought in confusion, Don’t those guys want to kill me? Why are they taking so long?

He could not be bothered with remaining here and waiting for them, and he only possessed half of his spiritual qi now under the absorption of the incomplete sword. Although he was confident he could slaughter them all, even a lion would use its full strength to catch a rabbit, so he might as well walk around and go elsewhere. He could think about it once he recovered his spiritual qi.

In the maze-like formation of the stone forest, eighteen Foundation Establishment cultivators had already gathered together. Someone said impatiently, “Why isn’t the fire barbarian here yet?” “Yeah, with his cultivation, he should have arrived long ago!”

The scarred man said, “Looks like he’s not planning to converge with us!”

The dwarf said, “The barbarian has no concept of teamwork. We’d do better without him. We’re not waiting for him anymore. Let’s go!”

“Hmm? The prey has begun to move, and he’s moving very quickly. Chase him!”

……

Hua Chenglu also heard the whistle from the distant horizon. Through the circular clearing in the canopy, she saw greyish-white, house-sized boulders. One of them flew over in their direction.

The man in black’s eyes became filled with shock. He could not be bothered with dealing with Hua Chenglu anymore. He used another Earth Submerging talisman and burrowed deep into the ground.

Rumble! The huge boulder smashed against the ground. The ground was like a huge drum that had just been struck viciously, creating a giant crater. A shockwave that spread out in all directions followed. Such power definitely was not as simple as a boulder falling out of the sky. It had been imbued with the powerful spiritual qi of a Golden Core cultivator.

Hua Chenglu was not unlucky enough for the boulder to directly smash into her, but the boulder landed only a few dozen meters away. She felt her body shake as even her bones became numb. The shockwave tore over in an unstoppable manner, sending her flying into the sky.

Only a single boulder failed to strike the ground. Instead, it happened to hurtle towards the great banyan tree in the centre of the sea of trees, caught by the interwoven sun vines and crushed to pieces.

“Ouch!”

Hua Chenglu groaned and sat up in a pile of dead wood. She felt her entire body ache painfully. She removed the protective talisman on her neck; it had already been completely destroyed. If this protective talisman had not automatically activated at a critical time, it would have been horrible.

The ground nearby shifted, and the cultivator in black crawled out. As he laid on the ground, he vomited blood mouthful after mouthful. He had used the same move, but he had miscalculated drastically this time.

The shockwave was merely a wave of air generated from the collision, but the tremors the boulder created possessed the powers of a Golden Core cultivator. By hiding underground, his organs were shaken to pieces, sustaining extremely severe internal injuries.

Hua Chenglu immediately felt like her body had stopped aching. She leapt up from the ground and unleashed a flying blade, swinging viciously towards the man in black’s head.

“Haha, go die, you ground beetle!”

“The one who’ll die is you!”





Chapter 639: Live Bait | Legend of the Great Sage




The man in black rolled against the ground, making the flying blade miss. He had already shoved a pill into his mouth. The flying blade turned around and pressed towards him again.

Roar!

He let out a beast-like growl as his legs erupted with alarming power, rushing towards Hua Chenglu with speed that completely surpassed what Qi Practitioners could possess.

He had consumed a pill that could unleash the potential of his body. It was unavoidable that pills like these came with side effects, but he was forced to use it now that he faced a life-or-death situation. If Hua Chenglu took out another scarlet talisman, his life would be in danger. Meanwhile, he primarily practised the wood element, which specialised in healing and nourishment. He could take his time and recover after this.

Hua Chenglu’s mouth opened slightly, taken aback. She no longer wanted to kill the cultivator in black anymore. She kicked off the ground with her slender legs, and she had already rushed into the air. A pair of beautiful wings unfolded on her back as she climbed higher and higher.

The wings were made from overlapping metal plates, a crystallisation of the mechanical arts of mohism. Then she painted them according to her tastes, which made them seem like a pair of real wings.

Regular Qi Practitioners all lacked methods to fly high in the sky. As long as she reached a certain altitude, he could not touch her. However, it went without saying that the pair of wings had come at a lofty price.

The moment she was about to fly out of the sea of trees, her ankle suddenly tightened. A verdant vine had wrapped around it, the spiritual artifact that belonged to the man in black. He tugged hard. “Get down here!”

“Ahh!” Hua Chenglu screamed and fell out of the sky. A thick, powerful hand gripped her slender neck firmly.

“Why don’t you keep running!?” The man in black smiled viciously. His face was bulging with veins, which made him seem terrifying. A great difference existed in their cultivation and experience in the first place. After consuming the pill that unleashed the potential of his body, the man in black possessed a crushing advantage.

“If you kill me… my elder brother won’t spare you!” A sliver of pain appeared on Hua Chenglu’s beautiful face, but her gaze was as stubborn as ever.

“Kill you? Don’t worry, I can’t bring myself to part with you just yet! I’ll find a secretive location and process you slowly. We still have ten days! By the time your elder brother finds you, you’ll already be a corpse and completely bare!”

Hua Chenglu could not help but become afraid. If that was the fate awaiting her, she would much rather die right now. Was he really a cultivator?

“Big brother, where are you?”

“Cough cough, your actual brother isn’t here, but there is a big brother Li!”

At this moment, the man in black heard a voice from behind. Hua Chenglu’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Big brother Li!”

The man in black suddenly turned around and saw the speaker. He was a large, tall, young man, who currently stared at him like he was a corpse. His face immediately changed. “L- Li Qingshan… don’t come over, if you come over, I’ll…”

Before he could finish, he saw a flash, and Li Qingshan had already arrived before him. He casually smacked the man in black’s shoulder, and he immediately collapsed on the ground like his bones had vanished from his body.
