"Ahhh!"
Mingzhi roared, a mad glint in his eyes.
He absolutely cannot die here; he hasn't reached the Grandmaster realm yet!
How could I just collapse here?
His monk's robe was torn, his beard and hair were flowing, and the veins were visible under his skin. His blood and qi surged, and he poured all his blood and qi and strength into his arms without regard for anything else.
Bang!
A loud bang.
The veins on Mingzhi's strong arms were bulging, but he still couldn't stop them!
It's like facing a charging elephant; the muscles in your arms simply can't withstand that immense force.
It crackled and exploded.
The white bones were all exposed.
It gradually caved in, then made a cracking sound.
Li Ming pressed his advantage, showing no mercy.
One punch broke the shoulder bone of the wise monk.
The final punch struck his heart and lungs amidst the deafening roar of a landslide and tsunami.
Fractured bones and ruptured internal organs.
[Slaying Akechi grants 5000 Life Energy.]
[Defying fate activated, seizing...]
[Physical skills.]
Without hesitation, Li Ming chose one that would be useful to him.
In an instant, his ability to use his body was further enhanced once again.
"So powerful, is he really just someone who has just broken through to the Condensation Realm?"
"sharp!"
The constables nearby were incredulous at how swiftly Li Ming killed the demonic monk Mingzhi.
The opponent was a master who was about to enter the Golden Core realm, and he was gone so easily?
No wonder Li Ming was valued by Lin Qiancheng; he was indeed exceptionally talented.
And just then...
"Knock knock knock!"
Three chimes.
Li Ming frowned. Who was this bell signaling to?
Before they could think any further, several more refined corpses attacked them.
At this moment, someone reminded him:
"Be careful, these reanimated corpses contain a lot of poisonous gas and putrid fumes. After killing them, be careful to avoid them!"
Li Ming nodded.
He had noticed this before.
A constable used his internal energy to break through the corpse's physical body. However, after the corpse collapsed, a large cloud of gas sprayed out, containing a powerful corrosive force.
Even if a martial artist at the Condensation Realm is said to have a body of steel and iron, if they are accidentally caught up in it, their physical body will be destroyed and they will turn into pus.
This move is absolutely disgusting!
Li Ming circulated the Azure Dragon Qi of the Wood element throughout his body. His mind was as clear as a mirror, his body remained still, and his five senses were exceptionally sharp.
In the void, it seemed as if a cold wind was howling, and the three refined corpses quickly pounced and killed.
These reanimated corpses, though lacking intelligence, possess a fighting instinct.
Spanning dozens of steps, carrying a corrosive aura, it wielded sharp claws powerful enough to tear through steel plates, striking fiercely in front of Li Ming.
In an instant.
Li Ming's eyes narrowed slightly as he drew his sword, slicing through the sky.
He slashed directly at the three corpses.
With a single stroke, he severed three heads.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Those heads fell to the ground like balls.
The turbid liquid spilled out, and the large amount of thick liquid that gushed out was enveloped by a cyan aura.
It was as if a pair of giant hands were kneading it from all directions.
As a Wood elemental being, he has many advantages, but the direct increase in combat power is not significant.
However, it is actually much stronger, not only in terms of the speed of true qi recovery.
Moreover, his grasp of the details of true qi is unparalleled. Subtle operations that ordinary people cannot do are not difficult for him.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Several headless, refining corpses, their heads severed, still possessed internal energy.
The head was still roaring meaninglessly.
Li Ming remained calm, decisively cutting through the mess.
Dismember these corpses completely and suppress their self-destruction with protective qi.
[Slaying the Corpse Refiner grants 1000 Life Energy.]
[Slaying the Corpse Refiner grants 1000 Life Energy.]
[Slaying the Corpse Refiner grants 1000 Life Energy.]
[There are potential risks associated with acquiring the attributes from a corpse refiner; it is recommended to refine it.]
[Refine all of them.]
[Gained 900 Life Energy.]
The life force gained is not much.
Li Ming cursed inwardly, "What a cheapskate."
He's not even as good as a wise master; at least that person is worth 5000.
It seems these corpse refiners are too weak and have been judged to be nobodies that can be killed at will.
It's also possible that the other party has too many grayed-out terms, which contaminates the rewards.
However, Li Ming was too lazy to think about it too much, and instead began to observe the surrounding battle.
He unleashed his divine power and killed Mingzhi, so naturally no one dared to challenge him.
At this moment, fighting raged on in front of Baiyun Temple.
What was once a serene Buddhist sanctuary has now become a living hell.
Blood pooled on the ground, and there were severed limbs everywhere.
Li Ming's eyes flickered; he had originally intended to go and help his master, Lin Qiancheng.
But suddenly, I saw several figures quietly leave the battlefield and then take the opportunity to head towards the rear hall.
At this moment, the master was incredibly powerful, and he killed one of the four Black Demons.
White Slash was also handled with ease.
Li Ming thought for a moment, then moved and immediately followed the figures.
He always felt that Qingmo was delaying something.
Soon, he arrived at the rear hall and saw several men dressed as monks suddenly enter a small, dilapidated temple next to it.
Li Ming then followed.
They had disappeared.
Where are they?
Li Ming was somewhat puzzled.
He saw several people go in with his own eyes, but they just disappeared.
Looking at the dilapidated state of the temple, it didn't seem like a place to hide.
Li Ming calmed down and carefully sensed the changes in the airflow.
But they discovered that besides the direction of the door, there was a faint airflow.
I went up to take a look, and it seemed to be completely sealed.
Li Ming focused his gaze and threw a punch, which exploded with a sharp shriek, tearing through the air.
It was like a cannonball hitting the wall.
Boom!
The entire dilapidated temple shook and trembled.
The wall was smashed on the spot, revealing a huge passage several meters wide and high.
Large amounts of gravel rained down inside.
Standing at the entrance of the passageway, peering inside, it was dark and deep, its destination unknown.
Li Ming's eyes lit up. That's right.
This is it.
Did those people escape from here?
Or were they going to tip someone off?
Did they call for the president of the Qingmo Society to go?
Gripping the long sword at his waist tightly with one hand, Li Ming took a deep breath, intending to go alone.
The mysterious chairman of the opposing group has not shown up, which suggests he has grand ambitions. We can't afford to let them delay any longer.
He slowly walked in, looking around cautiously.
Upon entering the cave, one can smell a pungent, bloody odor, as if the entire cave had been soaked in blood.
Skeletal remains are scattered everywhere on the ground, many of them buried only shallowly underground, easily exposed by a slight step.
The outside is blessed by Buddha, but the inside is littered with bones—it's ironic, really.
After about several dozen breaths, Li Ming stopped.
Stepping out of the passage, a completely different world unfolded before us.
Ahead was a space the size of a football field.
A strong smell of blood wafted from ahead.
Li Ming stepped inside.
Ahead, there was a blood pool altar, several meters wide and of unknown depth.
The white bones on the side were piled up several feet high!
"How many people were killed?"
Li Ming murmured.
One general's success is built on the bones of ten thousand.
This is perfectly normal in this world.
This one evil martial artist alone has taken countless lives in order to practice his skills.
The aftershocks of battles between those top-tier experts can destroy a large city.
Letting out a long breath, Li Ming suppressed his emotions and observed his surroundings.
But then they discovered...
The gray-robed monk who had entered the area earlier was nowhere to be seen.
Glug glug!
Li Ming's eyes flashed as he noticed several gray-robed figures floating on the blood pool, followed shortly by several skeletons.
Suddenly, a bubbling sound...
Within the blood pool below, streaks of blood-red light flashed, and several large, blood-red hands suddenly attacked Li Ming, who remained motionless.
"Whoosh!"
Having anticipated this, Li Ming instantly drew his long sword and swung it.
Blade energy crisscrosses!
"puff!"
Several large, blood-red hands were shattered by the sword energy.
"What the hell?"
Li Ming was startled when he saw the large hand.
The monks were dragged into the pool of blood by this giant hand earlier.
Then it was swallowed up?
In an instant, Li Ming understood what had happened.
The owner of this blood pool is most likely the president of the Green Demon Society, who came here to practice some unknown evil art!
Li Ming calmly said, "Remnants of the Azure Demon Society, why don't you come out and face your death?"
A short while later.
An old voice came from the bottom of the blood pool:
"Young friend, I am Huixin, the abbot of Baiyun Temple. I have been imprisoned in the Blood Pool by the villains of the Qingmo Society. Please come down into the Blood Pool and rescue me."
"You will surely be richly rewarded!"
