Chapter 557
by fanqienovelChapter 557: The Silver Snake Overindulges
Li Hui gazed obsessively at the golden flying sword, pondering, “Is this a spirit treasure? No, it must be a supreme treasure—one of the very best.” Such a powerful flying sword protecting something is undoubtedly extremely precious.
“Is this colorful brilliance a fragment of the Dao? Can the Dao break and leave traces behind?” Li Hui felt confused, shifting his attention to the six figures. His heart couldn’t help but tremble: “These are high-level powers from the Traveling Realm, and there are six of them! They must have been setting this up for days, and it’s no wonder they’re furious after the silver snake interrupted them!”
“Kid, who are you?” one of the six figures inquired.
Li Hui did not conceal himself, knowing he could not escape the eyes of these high-level cultivators. “I am Li Bugui from the Zhijian Sect in Xiongzhou. I followed a trace of energy and inadvertently stumbled into this dangerous place,” he quickly replied. If he didn’t present a legitimate identity from the Geng Gold Continent, he might raise their suspicions.
“Xiongzhou? A sect of the Heavenly Sword Dynasty.”
The six did not consider a junior as a threat; they focused their minds and resumed battling the golden flying sword, each time attempting to seize the colorful brilliance but repeatedly failing.
Li Hui noticed that these six high-level powers could not see the silver snake, although they likely sensed its presence. As the colorful brilliance shrank, the six became furious, summoning their Yang God legal forms to attack relentlessly, not realizing that the more urgent their actions, the faster the colorful brilliance faded away.
Four of them teamed up to suppress the golden flying sword while the other two struck at the void, sensing a lingering energy. In Li Hui’s eyes, the silver snake swayed, and none of the attacks could affect it at all.
“This isn’t good; I must escape quickly! I have a feeling that the silver snake will come back after it has eaten but isn’t done yet,” Li Hui slowly backed away, activating his Ideal Body to escape.
Right now, he was still not at Myriad Forms! With six high-level powers against him, he had no chance to fight back, so he ran as fast as he could.
Once Li Hui returned to the surface, he hurriedly unsheathed his sword.
“Clang, clang, clang…” He struck twenty-six times, erasing traces of himself from the past two hours, before shifting form into Li Hu and continuing his escape.
Li Hui was very clever. He had just left for thirty Moments when the ground shook, and the silver snake rolled up with the golden flying sword, racing off in a determined direction.
In a moment, Li Hu shouted, “What…!”
The silver snake bracelet returned, covered with colorful stripes, and it surprisingly brought back half of a golden flying sword; after taking a bite, it could no longer eat it!
“Oh my heavens! This guy has never eaten too much; it clearly didn’t leave me half of the flying sword out of kindness—it overindulged and saved some leftovers for itself.” Li Hui placed the half golden flying sword into the treasure cabinet of the Six Paths of Reincarnation for suppression, while manipulating the silver snake bracelet to transfer talisman power into the Azure Sky Jade Symbol Sword.
Once the Azure Sky Jade Symbol Sword was filled with talisman power, he quickly sent it into the treasure cabinet to command the Azure Sky Rock Worm to consume the golden flying sword. The silver snake feasts on meat; he should at least provide some broth!
From a distance, there were shouts and rumbling sounds as the six high-level powers erupted in fury, unleashing terrifying spiritual senses to search the heavens and earth.
Li Hui blended into Li Hu’s previous life path; at this moment, he had no time to think about finding a place to face tribulation. His legs strained as he hurried to the rendezvous point, pretending to be a spy for information.
“I’ve hit the jackpot! The silver snake bracelet is filled with talisman power! With a clever setup, I can face tribulation anywhere, and I can even refine those demonic talismans in my body. What exactly is that fragment of the Dao? The silver snake actually disregarded everything to swallow it. How much talisman power have I accumulated? The Azure Sky Jade Symbol Sword seems to show no signs of depletion after being filled.” While Li Hu felt shocked inside, his face showed no sign of worry.
Although he had escaped far, he still sensed what was happening.
The sects of the Geng Gold Continent were in an uproar; beams of light shot into the sky, swirling within a certain range, and soon hundreds and thousands of cultivators teleported in. Even large teleportation arrays appeared, bringing tens of thousands of cultivators to this place to scout.
It was terrifying; a grand rain of swords appeared in the sky as countless sword cultivators rushed over.
Thousands of practitioners from the malevolent sects and hundreds of practitioners from the demonic path were caught and suppressed, with Li Bugui from the Zhijian Sect being put on the wanted list. Clearly, these sects were adopting a strategy of “better to capture the wrong person than let anyone slip away.”
Li Hu fled at full speed, leaving the Yan Yun Kingdom and finally letting out a sigh of relief. He left a marker for the Ruan siblings to continue escaping and traveled through the complex power structures of Dayu Kingdom. He found an inn and slept for two days; on the third day, he sat cross-legged.
“What a powerful talisman power! It’s enough to strengthen the Green Emperor Yuanhong Vine and the Heavenly Dao Reincarnation Sword to suppress the Curse of the Undying. Plus, I can adjust the treasure cabinet of the Six Paths of Reincarnation to the ideal state.” After pondering for two hours, Li Hui began to unleash his power, pouring countless amounts of talisman power into it.
The Flower of the Other Shore robe emitted a muffled sound, and the self-painted bone was no longer on his back, instead revealing forty-nine Purple Crystal Great Swords, with two green doors rising one after another.
“Seal, seal, seal!”
Li Hui formed seals rapidly, completing the previous array for the treasure cabinet within the Flower of the Other Shore robe, crazily siphoning spiritual energy from the heavens and earth to generate Qi of Taiqing.
“Refine the Six Paths!!!”
The silver snake bracelet shone with seven colors; at this moment, he consumed talisman power to refine the acupoints and the treasure cabinet of the Six Paths, causing it to lose one layer of color with a series of popping sounds.
“Excellent! The Six Paths can be converted freely; even if changed to demonic paths, I can still control them effectively!” Li Hui felt overwhelming joy; he had initially mastered the treasure cabinet of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, no longer feeling like he was facing a runaway wild horse.
“Cultivate the Dragon Spring Purple Talisman Classic, practice the Cloud-Brush Dragon Claw Technique, and refine the wooden turtle prison.” As Li Hui formed seals to channel talisman power into the wooden turtle, the silver snake bracelet lost two layers of color.
Suddenly, a phantom of the Kunpeng appeared on the back of the wooden turtle. As he continued to pour in talisman power, the Kunpeng phantom grew more realistic, stirring an aura of demons.
Prime Minister Turtle was sleeping when he felt the tremendous shift and opened his eyes in surprise, asking, “Kid, where did you get so much talisman power? You’re forcing a little true spirit to help the Kunpeng manifest via a seal?”
“Can it really transform into a Kunpeng?” Li Hui asked eagerly.
“Don’t get your hopes up! Transformations aren’t that easy. With that talisman power, help me hide the secrets of heaven first.”
“I’m about to strengthen the ghost prison’s potential.” Li Hui noticed that the four layers of color remaining on the silver snake bracelet were very condensed, and after a long time, he could not deplete even a fraction.
Half an hour later, demonic energy surged around the Kunpeng, becoming extraordinarily intricate, while its eyes sparkled with spirit.
Prime Minister Turtle exclaimed, “Heavens! What kind of opportunity did you gain? How did you suddenly become so powerful? I feel I can no longer escape your control.”
“Bang…” The wooden turtle transformed into a wooden turtle ring, imprinting a vivid Kunpeng demon beast upon it. Li Hui felt a surge from behind as the six figures appeared simultaneously.
At the same time, all the hiding spots for demons and beast training grounds on the Geng Gold Continent were disturbed, and demonic energy rapidly drained away, causing the ancient demon stones and demon bones to shatter.
In just six Moments, the silver snake bracelet lost half a layer of color.
Li Hui’s excitement grew as the six figures surged once more, causing the secret demonic grounds, spiritual energy valleys, and ghostly ravines on the Geng Gold Continent to immediately diminish their power by a third.
“I did it! This is the backup plan for facing tribulation.”
