The moment Li Caiqi realized something was wrong, the surrounding space suddenly began to fluctuate.

The next moment, extremely powerful spiritual energy vortexes converged simultaneously from his four directions: front, back, left, and right.

"Oh no, an ambush!"

Li Caiqi was completely stunned.

Putting aside how the other party found him, so many cultivators were hiding nearby, yet he, a mere Dragon Marrow Realm cultivator, was completely unaware.

Although Li Caiqi enjoys life in the ordinary town, he constantly keeps his spiritual senses active.

Moreover, in order to conceal himself, he had already used the power of the flower dew he had recently obtained to change his appearance.

At this moment, Li Caiqi looked like a scholarly young master.

Even so, he was still discovered and quietly approached to an extremely dangerous distance.

In a short moment, countless thoughts flashed through Li Caiqi's mind.

"escape!"

This is his only thought right now.

The other side must have made ample preparations to get here; their numbers and strength are unknown.

Almost instantly, Li Caiqi subconsciously raised her palm, and the spatial rift was about to open.

But at this moment, four dazzling beams of light, like visitors from outer space, pierced through the sky.

It roared deafeningly, was blazing red, and resembled rolling lava.

"All four of them are Saint-level spirit talismans!"

Li Caiqi was deeply shocked.

There was no time to open the spatial rift, so he instinctively dodged to the side.

But as if they had anticipated his move, almost at the same time, two more streaks of light shot out at lightning speed, each trailing a long tail of flame.

"Damn it, are Saint-level spirit talismans free?!"

Li Caiqi cursed under her breath, still trying to dodge.

However, this attack was too fast, and even though he tried his best, he still couldn't completely dodge it.

Time was too short for Li Caiqi to even conjure an energy barrier in front of her.

The streak of light arrived in an instant, piercing Li Caiqi's chest with pinpoint accuracy.

In an instant, an indescribable pain spread from his chest.

It felt like thousands of steel needles piercing my heart at the same time, or like being burned by flames; the pain was unbearable.

Li Caiqi's body jolted violently, and she was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string.

The beams of light that missed him were bombarding the ground and walls around him.

The tables, chairs, cups, plates, and even the dust in the air inside the restaurant all disintegrated and turned into dust under the force of the tearing.

The buildings surrounding the restaurant were as fragile as paper, easily destroyed in an instant, leaving only a mess and billowing smoke.

The ordinary people watched with wide eyes what was happening.

Before the power of cultivators, mortals without cultivation are as insignificant as ants.

Let alone the power of a Saint-level talisman, even a slight aftershock would be enough to turn everyone nearby into dust.

Just as the aftershocks of the talisman were about to harm mortals, two mysterious forces suddenly appeared, sealing off the surrounding space for a moment and shielding all mortals from the aftershocks.

An Zhen and Tang Yuan made their move.

Having heard that Li Caiqi was hiding in a mortal town, Yun Sining specifically instructed that it was best not to endanger the lives of mortals.

These damaged houses and buildings can be repaired by cultivators with a mere wave of their hand in the future.

Li Caiqi fell heavily into a pile of ruins, amidst a cloud of dust.

His face was as pale as paper, and a streak of bright red blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.

Struck by a Saint-level talisman, his entire right shoulder has completely disappeared.

If Yun Si Ning were to see this scene, she would definitely find it somewhat familiar.

After all, when she killed Chai Yanchen, he was also blasted into a similar state by her series of talismans.

"Escape... escape from here first."

The blow just now not only caused physical injury, but also greatly impacted his consciousness, leaving him somewhat disoriented.

To deal with him, Yun Sining brought out her strongest spirit talismans.

Despite the pain, Li Caiqi tried to open the spatial rift again.

At that moment, two figures darted in from two directions like streaks of light.

Hua Yuncang swiftly formed hand seals, and cyan and other lights instantly gathered around him.

The next moment, strands of emerald green threads, barely visible to the naked eye, converged from all directions, gradually coalescing into a vast blue ocean.

"Azure Wood Technique: Binding All Living Things in the Woods!"

Hua Yuncang let out a low shout and thrust both palms forward suddenly.

The blue ocean suddenly boiled, transforming into countless thick vines and branches that swept towards Li Caiqi like living things.

After emerging from seclusion, Hua Yuncang's cultivation had reached the mid-stage of the Dragon Marrow Realm.

On the other side, a cold glint flashed in Qingyu's eyes.

Thunder roared, and a bolt of lightning struck Li Caiqi's body first.

Qingyu knew that against the opponent's ability to traverse space, neither the Prison Wind Hall's Water-Drawing Technique nor her own authority to imprison was effective.

The most important thing now is to stop him from escaping, so the Spring Thunder Technique is the best choice.

This was the first time Qingyu had used the Spring Thunder Technique since learning it from Li Changfeng.

As the lightning struck, Li Caiqi let out another painful groan, and her skin turned charred black.

Before they could react, Hua Yuncang's attack had already arrived.

"hateful!"

After being interrupted repeatedly, Li Caiqi was now furious.

As he parried the two men's attacks, a fierce glint appeared in his eyes.

Since he couldn't escape, he wasn't going to just keep defending himself.
