Chapter 96: Frightening Mosquitoes

In Li Changshou’s opinion…

This Heaven Immortal Daoist priest, who was controlled by the Blood Mosquitoes, was indeed reliable enough.

When he saw that only two out of the five people beneath him were Perfected Immortals who were fighting on the surface, the old Daoist priest decided to let the demonic roc scout the way first…

When the five of them and the demonic roc were bewitched at the same time, the old Daoist priest had actually powered his Dharma treasure from afar. He had tried to deal the final blow, ignoring the possibility of killing his companion’s demonic roc…

Unfortunately, the old Daoist priest still could not stabilize himself.

If the old Daoist priest of the Heaven Immortal realm remained in the air and did not give Li Changshou a chance to attack him, Li Changshou might have been forced to reveal his true form and quickly kill that person.

However, that person…

After being seduced for a while, he came down from the sky. He did not know the logic of refraining from entering every forest’ and continued to chase after him…

The stability that he had been maintaining was destroyed in an instant.

The stability that he had been maintaining for a long time, was gone because of a careless mistake.

The Blood Mosquito Puppets of the Heaven Immortal realm were anxious but not careful enough.

In the forest, the three paper effigies that were hiding in the tree trunk had been waiting quietly for a long time. They were prepared to attack at any time…

Li Changshou’s mind raced as he controlled the four paper effigies at a close distance. One of them fled while the other three crouched and retreated.

As he approached the ambush, the old Heaven Immortal seemed to sense danger. His eyes were filled with a hint of hesitation…

In front of him, the ‘God’ Paper Effigy No.1, who was flying along the forest, spat out a mouthful of blood. His aura was even more chaotic as if he could not hold on any longer.

The old Heaven Immortal quickly caught up to him and rushed to the edge of the ambush!

However, Li Changshou did not panic. He decided to hold his ground and wait for the best opportunity.

Not only could he wait for the right time, but he could also create it himself.

Li Changshou preferred to be in control.

The ‘God’ Paper Effigy No.1 flew hundreds of feet forward. Suddenly, he turned around with a look of determination. He carried his horsetail whisk and rushed towards the old Heaven Immortal Daoist, looking like he was going to risk his life by going all out.

The Heaven Immortal Daoist gave a cold smile as the Poison-Repelling Pearl above his head glistened.

He took out his treasure seal, raised the sword which was a Numinous Treasure in his hand, and slashed out a sharp sword beam that was hundreds of feet long!

In order to end the battle quickly, Li Changshou had already decided to make a small loss. He was going to sacrifice the paper effigy to kill the old Heaven Immortal Daoist.

Using the ‘God’ Paper Effigy to exchange for the life of a Heaven Immortal is indeed a loss compared to using poison.

‘God’ Paper Effigy No.1’s body moved horizontally, barely dodging the sword. However, he did not care about the seal that was coming from the sky.

Seeing that the seal was about to hit his enemy, the old Heaven Immortal’s lips curled into a cold smile. A dark green wave appeared around him…

An ambush!

The old Daoist priest was slightly shocked. However, he could no longer react. He was caught by a blue wave!

The old Daoist priest’s essence soul was restrained by the array and his immortal body could not move at all.

Trapping Array: Green Water Cage

That was an opportunity that could not be missed!

There was not much spirit energy in the miniature array foundation!

A thousand feet away, another two Dharma artifact array discs were sent out of the tree trunk. The miniature array foundations on them immediately scattered. In the blink of an eye, they had formed a formation!

The three arrays overlapped but did not interfere with each other!

Small-scale killing arrays as such could only be used once in a short period of time. Every time it was used, it would require up to hundreds of meticulous adjustments. Li Changshou had used two of them…

A cold light flickered in the forest.

Countless blades shot out and landed on the old Daoist priest!

Another pool of pitch-black sludge appeared at the old Daoist priest’s feet in a strange manner. The green jewel on his head shone brightly!

The old Heaven Immortal Daoist’s deadpan expression revealed a hint of anxiety. His entire body was filled with immortal energy, and he wanted to use it to resist the surrounding attacks…

However, the first killing array had seriously injured him.

The old Daoist priest’s immortal power barrier and the clothing on his body which were Immortal Treasures, could not last more than a breath’s time before they were torn apart by the cold beams of light.

At once, blood splattered everywhere.

After the cold light burst out, the old Daoist priest’s body was covered in wounds. He was barely breathing and was seriously injured…

All of a sudden, an obscure Dao rune surged out from between the old Daoist priest’s eyebrows and rapidly spread throughout his body!

The old Daoist priest’s eyes turned cold and vicious.

Li Changshou immediately caught that detail and was shocked.

Daoist Wen!?!

It should be her.

However, he had considered that situation before…

Li Changshou did not panic at all. He continued following the steps of his plan. Three paper effigies emerged from the tree trunk. While the trapping array formation was still running, they quickly rushed towards the heavily injured Heaven Immortal Daoist.

Even if you are a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal or a vicious person of the Primordial World, you’d be in trouble as long as I kill this old Daoist that contains some of your spiritual will. You can’t make bricks without straws.

At that moment, deep underground.

The red hairpin on Ling’e’s head flickered and glowed as if something inside was about to rush out…

The red hairpin was a simple Dharma treasure that Li Changshou had personally refined two months ago. After giving it to Ling’e who was very fond of it, she was unwilling to take it off even when she slept.

In the forest, at the point where the three array formations overlapped, the Dao runes on the old Heaven Immortal’s body became more obvious. A sanguine glow that emitted a powerful pressure emerged from his body!

However…

Crack!

A blood-stained palm attacked from the side. The sanguine incantations on the palm shone brightly. It flew over the old Daoist priest’s head and hit the Poison-Repelling Pearl!

The Poison-Repelling Pearl was sent flying!

Without the protection of the pearl, the black water below immediately unleashed its might and instantly melted the old Daoist priest’s feet and legs…

Daoist Wen Jing, who was lying on the bed in the Aparagodānīya Continent, frowned slightly.

Just as Li Changshou had expected, she was too far away and had only sent a wisp of spiritual will…

However, she actually… got defeated?

Before Daoist Wen Jing could retract her spiritual will,

The three figures with different faces and figures had already rushed to the old Daoist priest’s side and stood in proper positions.

They moved in unison. They raised their right hands and placed their sword fingers at their left wrist, before pushing their left palms forward!

In each of their palms, there was a flame-like incantation pattern. The three runes were ignited at the same time.

The True Samadhi Flames unleashed their full power. The old Daoist priest’s severely injured body was immediately engulfed by the flames. He was instantly burned to the point of being disfigured!

Li Changshou suddenly had a thought.

The Daoist priest facing the old Daoist priest, who looked like a middle-aged Daoist priest, humphed coldly.

“Hmph!”

“I don’t care what demon you are. You will be executed by me today!”

The immortal powers in the three paper Daoists turned into True Samadhi Flames and were darting towards the old Daoist.

Due to Daoist Wen’s spiritual will, Li Changshou could skip all the steps. The True Samadhi Flames had forcefully melted the essence soul and immortal body of the old Daoist who was in the Heaven Immortal realm, instantly vaporizing the blood.

Finally, the Dao runes that frightened Li Changshou gradually disappeared…

In the darkness, Li Changshou took a deep breath. However, he did not dare to be careless. He immediately did what he had to do next.

What he said just now was not a casual remark.

When he said “I don’t care what kind of demon you are.” he was hinting that he did not know who Daoist Wen was.

He also deliberately said the word ‘me’, which was a trick.

Li Changshou did not know if his words would work, but it was better than not doing anything.

Li Changshou suddenly felt helpless as he looked at the ashes floating in the forest.

This matter…

How many years had it been since I transcended the tribulation?

I actually met Daoist Wen, the Primordial Beast, through the puppets and paper dolls.

The Primordial World is indeed more dangerous than I had imagined…

Deep in the ground, the jade hairpin swayed gently. It was inserted more firmly in Ling’e’s black hair.

…

Defeated…

I lost?!

I, the queen, let my spiritual will descend and I couldn’t do anything at all. Yet, I was burnt to ashes without doing anything!?!

‘By me’? Who could it be?

In a Cave Abode near the spiritual mountain in the Aparagodānīya Continent.

Daoist Wen Jing, who was lying on the side of the bed, suddenly opened her eyes. She looked a little irritated and waved her hand.

“Get lost!”

The two maids who were kneeling at the side did not dare to breathe. They hurriedly got up and retreated with their heads lowered.

Daoist Wen Jing’s dress fluttered as she immediately sat up cross-legged. Waves of emotions rose in her heart…

Who is that person?

A moment ago, she was still admiring the chaotic battle in Immortal Du Sect.

When Daoist Wen Jing realized that the puppets she had gathered were already very weak, she was naturally dissatisfied.

The puppet that should have been suppressing the Immortal Du Sect had been destroyed for no reason.

In fact, the scheme could only cause some casualties to the Immortal Du Sect. It could not shake their foundations…

Although she was unhappy, she did not care.

After all, it was just a small scheme that did not require much effort.

The main battle was about to end. Daoist Wen Jing no longer had the intention to continue watching.

Her heart stirred. She wanted to see if the Heaven Immortals she had sent to kill the disciples of the Immortal Du Sect had completed their tasks.

Therefore, Daoist Wen Jing shifted her attention to the old Daoist priest.

Just as she looked over, she saw that the old Heaven Immortal was trapped in the array formation and was attacked by the killing array…

It was a huge tragedy!

Why are the puppets I found so useless!?!

In a fit of anger, Daoist Wen Jing decided to control the old Daoist priest and personally take action.

However, before she could show her might, she was burned to ashes by the three “Perfected Immortals” the moment she entered the puppet’s mind…

‘No, that doesn’t seem to be a real living being. Could it be some kind of divine power’s creation?

The person behind him might be an expert!

Before Daoist Wen Jing’s eyes, the flame pattern began to appear.

It was a scene that was brought back by her spiritual will. She could not suppress it for a moment.

Who was this person?

Could it be that he is, like me, using a puppet to teach others?

Daoist Wen Jing snorted coldly in her heart. She forcefully wiped away the images and revealed a charming smile.

This Immortal Du Sect is getting more and more interesting…

“Eh? It’s you?”

Suddenly, Daoist Wen Jing frowned. A man’s voice sounded in her heart.

The person said, “Someone actually concealed your heavenly secrets? No wonder, I couldn’t tell who you were even when I was halfway through.”

Who?!

Who is speaking!

Daoist Wen Jing’s body trembled. She immediately stopped the seal. A sanguine glow surged from her body and extinguished the voice.

However, she did not have the time to deduce what had happened. Her eyes were still in a daze as an extremely mysterious Dao rune revolved around her.

At that moment, Daoist Wen Jing suddenly sensed the emotions that she had not felt for a long time…

Fear.

The pure fear that came from the depths of her essence soul!

In a daze, Daoist Wen Jing seemed to have seen a layer of fog. However, at the same time, a water curtain appeared in front of her and blocked her figure.

She knew that it was the manifestation of a Great Dao phenomenon. This water curtain was the technique of a Saint that hid the heavenly secrets from her.

However, Daoist Wen Jing could not see through the fog at all.

Outside the water curtain, a silhouette in the fog, that was distorted by the water curtain was slowly walking over.

Daoist Wen Jing could vaguely see that the person was raising his left palm. There seemed to be two faint black and white auras in his palm. These two auras were chasing each other endlessly, containing profound truths.

“Tsk.”

Daoist Wen Jing heard that voice again. The other party kept smiling.

“After borrowing the power of Teacher’s painting, I can’t tell who you are. You must be a disciple of a Saint.”

Through the water curtain, the Daoist’s figure kept twisting and swaying. However, Daoist Wen Jing felt a chill in her heart.

At this moment, she was locked by some Dao runes and could not escape from the illusion.

Then, the person said warmly, “I am Xuandu, the eldest disciple of the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue.”

“Fellow Daoist, you wanted to harm my Ren School for no reason. You had evil intentions, and your methods are despicable. However, I will not touch you on account of the Saint behind you.”

He continued, “If you dare to offend Ren School in the future, even if it’s just the insignificant Immortal Du Sect… the Uncle-Master behind you might not be able to protect you.”

After saying that, the figure outside the water curtain chuckled and slowly dissipated with the surrounding fog.

Daoist Wen Jing’s vision blurred and she instantly saw the situation in her Cave Abode.

She looked down at her hands and felt her Dao.

They were trembling uncontrollably…

…

In the northwest direction of the Immortal Du Sect that was 5,000 kilometers away, Xuandu, who was standing on the cloud with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes.

“Eldest Senior Brother, how is it?” the old Daoist priest beside him quickly asked.
