Chapter 516
Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh ...
In an instant, PEI Ling slashed out tens of thousands of blade Qi!
Each of the saber Qi was filled with an overbearing aura. Vaguely, it also contained a sense of Majesty that made all living things submit to it. The power of any one of them was no weaker than the full strength strike he used when he was going through the Tribulation!
At the same time, PEI Ling’s eyes suddenly brightened. In the depths of his pupils, the Nanke dream fire suddenly rose. Countless tiny runes interweaved, and he had already cast the [ eternal curse magical power ]!
As the runes jumped, his aura surged like a rising tide, and a mountain range with verdant grass and lush forests appeared behind him.
It was obvious that this mountain range was deserted. There were no proper roads or houses in sight.
There was only a small Daoist temple hidden among the lush branches and leaves.
The Taoist temple looked ancient and simple.
The iron horses under the cornice were covered in rust, the black tiles were covered in thick moss, and the mottled door wall revealed the traces of time.
It was high and quiet.
It was like a paradise, but it gave people an indescribable feeling of mystery.
“Law”!
At this moment, PEI Ling instantly used all his strength!
Since he had already made his move, he had to end the battle quickly!
Unfortunately, this corpse puppet didn’t have any resentment, hatred, jealousy, or evil thoughts. Otherwise, he could’ve used the [ resentment puppet divine ability ] and unleashed an even stronger strength.
At this moment, the corpse puppet’s punch had missed and it continued to charge towards PEI Ling.
However, before he could get close, his aura suddenly dropped from the advanced stage of the core formation realm to the peak of the middle stage!
The corpse puppet instinctively wanted to avoid the overwhelming saber Qi that was about to tear the world in half.
Just like before, he went around to PEI Ling’s back.
But at the same time, a pair of white and slender arms suddenly stretched out from the ground. Their wrists were white as snow, and their fingers were like bamboo shoots, but as strong as fine iron. They grabbed the corpse puppet’s legs and instantly exploded with a tremendous force, firmly holding it in place!
Without waiting for the corpse puppet to struggle, a bloody aura filled the air, and a few more pairs of identical arms reached out from the darkness, pressing down on its shoulders, arms, and head.
In that instant, the corpse puppet’s power was blocked and it couldn’t do anything to defend itself.
Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!
In the next moment, 10000 streams of saber Qi passed through the corpse puppet’s body, and it was instantly cut into countless pieces!
The saber Qi didn’t stop and cut off half of the mountain behind the corpse puppet. It was like a rainbow piercing through the sun, pressing forward with indomitable force. The remaining force cut the hillside behind in two. Only then did it dissipate amidst the sound of the landslide and the earth cracking.
Seeing that the powerful enemy had already been killed by his blade, PEI Ling did not hesitate and immediately kept the nine souls saber. At the same time, the nine pairs of Jade-like arms that stretched out from the ground and darkness also disappeared.
This was the blood Fiend saber soul transformed from the nine soul saber’s saber spirit. Without waiting for PEI Ling’s orders, it had taken the initiative to cooperate with him and temporarily suppressed the corpse puppet whose cultivation level had dropped.
His saber Qi was of the same origin as the saber spirit, so when he killed the corpse puppet, he didn’t cause any harm to the saber spirit.
Immediately after, PEI Ling cast two hand seals to erase his own aura. He immediately executed an escape technique and left quickly.
During this process, he activated [ faceless blood ] and changed his appearance again. Even the robe on his body was quickly changed into something that he had never worn before.
... In the shadow of the tree on the mountain next door, li wumei stood with his hands behind his back. His aura was perfectly concealed. Unless one saw it with their eyes, one would feel that the shadow of the tree was empty, and there was nothing in it.
His gaze was deep. Although he was watching from a peak away, he had seen the battle between PEI Ling and the corpse puppet clearly from start to finish.
At this moment, a smile finally appeared on li wumei’s originally expressionless face. His eyes were filled with praise as he nodded slightly.
PEI Ling’s future opponent would be the sage sect’s successor disciple, su zhenhe!
Using corpse puppets to fight enemies was su zhenhe’s specialty.
Therefore, li wumei had long collected many corpse puppets, preparing to give them to PEI Ling to practice.
He had rushed over this time just to bring PEI Ling back to Li Group as soon as possible.
However, when he used his spiritual will to scan the area, he realized that the other party had already formed his core!
The purpose of the ninth Ali clan supporting PEI Ling was to compete with su zhenhe of the pillow su clan for the position of the Saint.
Not only was su zhenhe the legitimate son of the SU clan, but he had also been taught by a divine path giant since he was young, laying an extremely deep foundation. He had also entered the path far earlier than PEI Ling. Although his accumulation was not as good as li lieyue, who was also a peerless genius of noble birth, it was still terrifying compared to ordinary core formation cultivators!
With PEI Ling’s age, he had to reach perfection in every major realm before he could catch up and suppress su zhenhe!
Therefore, this kid’s core formation was definitely a big deal!
It was related to whether the nine Ali clan plan could continue!
This was the real reason why li wumei secretly acted and used a late-stage core formation corpse puppet to test PEI Ling.
If PEI Ling had formed a grade four true core or lower, then he was a good-for-nothing!
He would turn the act into reality and kill him here so as not to continue wasting the Li clan’s resources. At the same time, he would set up the scene to create the illusion that su zhenhe had killed him to silence him, which would be a reason to suppress the SU clan.
If PEI Ling had a third-grade golden core ...
Then li wumei would also be extremely disappointed.
Of course, it was still a golden core, so it had some value.
He could be an ordinary subordinate for the Li Group.
As for the Li group’s full support, that was, of course, impossible.
Only a second-grade golden core or above would PEI Ling be qualified to continue receiving the Li clan’s attention.
However, if he only had a second-grade golden core, the resources provided by the Li clan would definitely not be the best.
This was because su zhenhe also had a second-grade golden core!
Moreover, he had formed his Aurous core many years earlier than PEI Ling and his current cultivation level had already reached the advanced stage of the Aurous core stage.
Under such circumstances, if the Li clan continued to support PEI Ling in his fight for the saint’s position, the chances of success would be too low!
However, things were still fine for now.
This PEI Ling, who had just entered the core formation stage, could already kill a late-stage core formation corpse puppet. He must be a first-grade golden core!
And this battle ended very quickly.
The battle ended quickly. PEI Ling’s breathing was not even messed up. It was obvious that dealing with a corpse puppet of the advanced stage of the completion level was not his limit.
However, for li wumei, since he had already determined the quality of the other party’s Jindan, there was no need to continue probing.
The strong were respected. This was the Zhong gang sect’s basic understanding of this world and also the eternal and unchanging Basic Law of this world.
Since PEI Ling had reached the heaven Dao Foundation establishment stage and attained a grade one pill, he was still a candidate for the Holy Son that the nine Ali clan supported with all their might!
As he thought of this, li wumei smiled slightly. At that moment, his entire body seemed to shatter like an illusion. He left his original spot in an instant and appeared beside PEI Ling who was flying away.
After that, he pressed his shoulder and the two of them disappeared into the night.
