The pneuma of Lihen Sword was gradually peeled off. Ling Li frowned and clutched his chest. He felt something newly born was heaving there.
Although he had never felt these rises and falls, he was not panicked. In addition, he felt an extremely unfamiliar…warmth.
“This pneuma. How can it be…”
The old man looked blankly at Ling Li who was frowning. His cold face mixed with surprised and excited look. Such a weird expression.
Thump!
Thump!
When ninety percent of Lihen Sword was removed, the heartbeat of another heart in Ling Li’s chest sounded suddenly. The newly born power flowed through his tendons and vessels to his limbs and the other part of his body. He couldn’t help but cough out a mouthful of blood.
The blood fell on the ground with dotted golden light.
Su Li and Su Bai stood quietly to watch this scene.
She had already known this sword absorbed Ling Li’s blood. After the old man said those words, the identity of Ling Li was self-evident.
“Bai Mo deceived Ling Li into suppressing his clansmen…”
Cold silver light flashed through Su Li’s eyes. She said, “Whether it is me or Ling Li, the enmities in Qingshui Circle gradually become clear.”
“Eh… Ah!!”
Ling Li hunched and clasped his head in pain. There were blue veins on his face.
Su Bai retracted his hand blankly, “Sister, what’s happening to him? That kind of force has been cleaned.”
Su Li wiped off the profuse sweat on Su Bai’s forehead gently, “Probably…he receives some bad memories.”
Su Bai nodded and then returned to the Cang Lei’s Cave.
“Ah!! It’s impossible…”
Ling Li suddenly stood up with golden light shining from his body. He broke free from the cage out of a sudden with fierce wind around him. Then he disappeared in the gap in the blink of an eye.
Su Li stepped backwards and gave a quizzical look.
“Don’t you chase him?” asked Black Lotus gingerly.
“No. Let him cool off. Recently, Shengtian Shrine has no time to find him.”
“Young Lord!!”
The old man came to his senses. He had tears on his face with his body trembling, “Indeed, He…is Young Lord. When I faced him, I didn’t recognize him. And I even wanted to kill him… It’s my fault!”
“Young Lord is still alive…”
“How many clansmen were killed by Young Lord?!”
“The intelligence of Young Lord was blinded. Did he remember his memories today…?”
Whimpers and sobs sounded in the ice mounds. The truth was too cruel for them.
Su Li watched this scene quietly without sadness or happiness. Then she grabbed Lihen Sword.
The demon sword trembled severely. Countless blood streaks surged and intertwined to drill into Su Li’s body from her arm. The sword wanted to find another host.
Su Li smiled coldly, “It seems that your intelligence is not high. You are not qualified to be my treasure.”
After saying that, Su Li touched the blade of the sword. Then scarlet blood covered it. Soon, the demon sword excitedly sucked up all the blood.
“Fellow Practitioner Su, don’t do that!”
Seeing this, the old man was petrified. Before he could finish his words, he saw that the cold and bright Lihen Sword started to rust in the speed visible to the naked eyes.
“Crack!!”
In a few breaths, accompanied by the spirit’s scream and annihilation, Lihen Sword turned into ash and fell through Su Li’s fingers on the pale ground. It piled up into a small mound.
The old man lost his tongue. He had lived in ice mound for tens of thousands of years, but he could only feel cold in his heart.
“The blood poison of evil ghost. She is really one of Prehistoric Ghost Clan. But she also belongs to Human Clan… She is so incredible.”
Thinking of this, the old man began to consider Su Li’s proposal. Maybe, it was much better to follow her after getting out here, compared with the original plan that he led the clansmen to explore in this strange Qingshui Circle.
Crack!
The crisp crack pulled the old man back to the reality. Seeing the golden thunder shot out from Su Li’s fingertips, he was tongue-tied again and gave a forced smile.
Divine Thunder of Mental… He knew that the woman was showing her strength. She owned three of the Divine Thunders of the Five Elements. She was so…
Divine Thunder of Mental lived up to be the most aggressive Divine Thunder. After its several hits, Lihen Tablet was full of cracks.
“The final hit!”
Su Li squinted and put away Divine Thunder of Mental. She switched to Divine Thunder of Water and severely hit it at the center of Lihen Tablet.
Boom!
Lihen Tablet fell apart. It turned into many pieces of gravel. In Su Li’s eyes, those red lines also disappeared at the same time.
After this step, Su Li felt something. She waved her sleeve to set up a vortex and raised her head, “All of you enter my cave immediately!”
Although the old man didn’t know what happened, he decisively leaded the remaining tens of thousands of clansmen to jump into the vortex and disappeared.
After putting away the cave, Su Li left the gap without hesitation and returned to the original road.
When Su Li was about to leave the end of divine awareness and enter underground karst cave, the space of the end of divine awareness stopped for a second. Then all the red lines began to shake and deorbited from the original trajectory. They all pointed to the same point.
Swish!
The first red line shot out. As if it triggered a chain reaction, the rest thousands of red lines suddenly shot out in sync and became very sharp!
Ding, ding, ding, ding!
Soon, there was a series of collisions in the dark. The countless red lines were broken apart and dyed the boundless darkness a streak of red.
Swish!
A white shadow flashed through the end of divine awareness. It rushed in the teeth of the attack of the red lines without stopping to the silent ice mounds and then stood still.
“Oh? The ghosts of Ling Family get out of the seal. It amazes me.”
“When the Tianjiao Battle began, even I couldn’t divine any clues. Is she intentional or not?”
“As expected, the test of the second generation of daughter of luck fails. But the first generation is still alive. Did she play tricks? Or, the boy of Ling Family awakened to his bloodline?”
The white shadow walked to the place where Ling Li spitted blood. It reached out to touch the ground and curled its lips.
“Forget it. Even if the Ling Family escapes, the plan would not be affected. I don’t need to worry for Shengtian Shrine.”
Then the white shadow disappeared like a wasp of smoke.
This white shadow was just a clone.
…
Su Li returned to the Endless River. She looked back and frowned lightly.
“What’s wrong?”
Black Lotus curiously looked back as well. He couldn’t feel anything.
“It seems that the end of Ling Qingshui’s divine awareness damaged a little.”
Black Lotus’s face slightly changed. “We should go now.”
Su Li nodded, “It doesn’t matter. The dangerous source I have sensed has disappeared.”
“Is it Bai Mo that the old man mentioned?”
Su Li’s eyes shone. “Who knows?”
…
Walking along the river, Su Li quickly found the original hole made by her power. She returned to the mountain road and continued to climb the mountain.
There were no outsiders. Naturally, she picked up speed. She only had a short stop at high-grade illusion tactical matrixes occasionallyin which she was interested. She destroyed the other blocks in front of her with her punches.
The tests in Shengxian Mountain could only trial the power under the peak of the nature’s test. They were the same for her.
She even had time to talk with the First Elder of Ling Family in Cang Lei’s Cave so as to get more information.
After the First Elder of Ling Family entered the cave, he saw Hong Baizhu and Su Bai could get along well with each other. Then he confirmed his thought. He let his guard down and told her some details.
He was the First Elder of Ling Family, whose name was Ling Zhizhen. His power was at peak in those days which reached the Realm of Great Emperor. Compared with Ling Qingshui’s power, his power was several levels lower, although they were at the same realm.
Ling Zhizhen said that the early phase of Dacheng Realm was the Realm of Junior Emperor. In this phase, people could master the ability to control the power of the heaven and earth and form a region. The perfection phase of Dacheng Realm was the Realm of Great Emperor. People in this phase could affect the rule of this circle and also be suppressed by the natural law.
However, the level of Ling Qingshui was over the natural law. Therefore, he replaced the natural law and became the master of this circle. He was invincible here!
“Is he the immortal in legend?”
“Yes! Although he was still called the emperor by people in this circle, he has already surpassed Dacheng Realm and reached Realm of Immortals. He could break the void and travel in the universe. Shui has been to the universe, but he was seriously injured when he came back. He just told us one sentence about his experience in the universe, ‘There is always someone who is better than us.’ Then he didn’t speak more.”
“Elder Ling, how much do you know about the Star Hall you just mentioned?”
Ling Zhizhen made a forced smile, “I only heard from Shui that it was an enormous and old force from the universe. But I don’t know any other details about it.”
“Forget it. Elder Ling, what you told me has already broadened my outlook.”
After one day’s communication with Su Jiuzhou, Ling Zhizhen found that she was very kind and gentle. It was an almost impossible thing that she had such good characters at her age with incredible talent and power.
“She is less than 30 years old, but she is now in the perfection phase of Yuanying Realm. Her power is even…outstandingin Junior Emperors. She is much more powerful than Shui. The natural law certainly would be jealous of this prodigy who walks outside. How does she live to the present…?”
Ling Zhizhen fell silent in confusion.
Su Li hurried on with her journey. She could think of something when she talked with Ling Zhizhen.
Although her power had reached that of a Junior Emperor, her realm was too far away from that of him. If she encountered a Junior Emperor whose power was equally-matched to hers and then she was led into his region, she would be in a dilemma. How should she cope with that?
Su Li remembered that unlucky Grand Elder who was killed by her in the Ghost Region. If she hadn’t had the fragments of the small world and he hadn’t been too careless that time, the ending…would have been really hard to say.
Su Li looked gloomy. Capturing ice demon, occupying Jiuzhou Region, and achieving the power level of Junior Emperor… Frequent victory seemed to make her slack.
“After this, I should go somewhere to improve my power again.”
Su Li made up her mind and climbed quickly. The summit of Shengxian Mountain was…less than a thousand feet from her!
At the same time, another scene staged in the space of Black Lotus Ring.
