Chapter 73 The Thunder Tribulation is Coming
Just by showing this skill, the Taoist priests present no longer dared to look down on Li Zhi. After all, they would not be able to draw talismans with their bare hands using spiritual power even if they practiced for decades more.
Taoist Chen was naturally so shocked that he was speechless and his eyes were about to pop out.
The only person who remained calm was Master Jiang Tianshi, who had already witnessed Li Zhi's power.
Looking at everyone's jaw-dropping expressions, even though it wasn't him who hit them in the face, he still felt inexplicably refreshed.
Li Zhi ignored the gazes directed at him and waved his hand. The golden talisman quickly spread out in all directions, and then spread to cover the entire Longtan Mountain.
She closed her eyes, made hand gestures with one hand, and used her spiritual sense to search the entire mountain.
Soon, Li Zhi felt the energy fluctuation in one place.
She opened her eyes, fixed her gaze on a certain direction on the mountain, and said slowly, "Three kilometers southeast."
Taoist Xuanqing followed her gaze. Although he didn't know her background, he had witnessed her strength and believed her words without a doubt. With a serious expression, he said to everyone, "Everyone, bring your things and follow me up the mountain now!"
"Okay." Everyone responded.
"Wait, Taoist Xuanqing." Li Zhi said.
"What's wrong, Miss Li?" Taoist Xuanqing asked, "Is there anything wrong?"
Li Zhi turned to look at Master Jiang who was beside him, "Xiao Jiang, give me a piece of talisman paper."
"What kind of talisman?" asked Master Jiang Tianshi.
"Whatever." Li Zhi replied.
Master Jiang Tianshi immediately took out a piece of talisman paper from his pocket and handed it to her.
Li Zhi reached out to take it, quickly folded the talisman paper in his hand into a paper crane, and then infused spiritual power into the paper crane.
The next second, a golden light flashed, and the paper crane flapped its wings and slowly flew up from the palm of the hand and stopped in the air.
Li Zhi raised her eyes and looked back at Taoist Xuanqing, explaining, "Just follow this paper crane. It will lead the way for you, and it will be faster this way."
"Okay, thank you." Taoist Xuanqing nodded, looked at the paper crane flying towards the mountain, and then called on all the Taoists to follow.
Li Zhi has difficulty walking and cannot go up the mountain, so Master Jiang Tianshi must have chosen to stay and guard the foot of the mountain so that he can accompany her.
For a moment, they were the only two left at the foot of the mountain.
Jiang Tianshi glanced at the figures of the people going up the mountain, then quickly retracted his gaze and fell on Li Zhi. His eyes showed even more admiration and worship for her. "Master Li, you are really amazing. You found the exact location of the drought demon with just one move."
He paused and continued, "I just heard someone say that the talisman you drew is called the God-Searching Talisman?"
He only knew that the soul-searching talisman was used to search a person's three souls and six spirits, but this was the first time he had heard of the so-called spirit-searching talisman.
Li Zhi nodded, "That's right, you can find anything, no matter where you go."
Jiang Tianshi raised his hand and stroked his beard, then coughed lightly. "Um... Master Li, can I learn this divine search talisman from you?"
Li Zhi didn't refuse. "Okay, but your spiritual power is low. Although it can't reach the ultimate effect of mine, it is enough for you. But you have to pay the tuition."
Jiang Tianshi's eyes lit up, and he waved his hand, "Master Li, the tuition fee is no problem, as long as you are willing to teach me!"
Li Zhi hummed, "Let's talk about it in detail after we finish things here and go back."
"Okay!" Master Jiang Tianshi responded.
…
Soon, a sound like the roar of a wild beast came from the mountain.
Jiang Tianshi's pupils suddenly contracted, and he looked in the direction of the sound. "Found it!"
Li Zhi raised her eyes and looked at the sky which was suddenly covered with dark clouds, blocking the sun. The sky darkened instantly and there seemed to be faint thunder.
Jiang Tianshi naturally noticed this change as well. He suddenly had a bad feeling and counted on his fingers. Then he said solemnly, "Could it be that this drought demon has upgraded again?"
Li Zhi narrowed her eyes slightly. "This drought demon isn't just a spiritual being. It cultivates by absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon. It's almost become a human. It's a spiritual creature. Taoist Xuanqing and the others are no match for it."
Jiang Tianshi's face changed drastically. Looking at the constant sounds of fighting and performing rituals in the mountains, he was extremely anxious. "It's all over. What should I do? I hope nothing will happen to them."
Li Zhi shook her head. "At most, it would seriously injure them, but it wouldn't kill them. Otherwise, with blood on its hands, it wouldn't be able to survive the judgment of Heaven if it survived the thunder tribulation and became an adult."
She paused, glanced at the dark sky again, and continued, "And didn't you hear the thunder? What a coincidence! Its thunder tribulation is approaching, and it urgently needs to find a deserted place to survive it. That's why it won't fight Taoist Xuanqing and the others to death right now."
"I think it came here in the first place just to cultivate in Longtan Mountain and wait for its tribulation and maturity."
As soon as he finished speaking, a red figure flew out from the mountains and flew towards the foot of the mountain, apparently wanting to escape.
As we got closer, the temperature around us was rising rapidly.
Jiang Tianshi's eyes narrowed. When he was less than a few meters away, he saw the figure clearly. It was humanoid, but its entire body was burning with flames. "It's the drought demon!"
The drought demon naturally noticed Li Zhi and the other man. Seeing that Jiang Tianshi was wearing a Taoist robe, he knew that they were in the same group as the Taoist priest who captured it in the mountains.
However, it had no intention of getting entangled any further, so it turned in the air and prepared to run in another direction.
Li Zhi raised his eyebrows, immediately raised his hand to draw a talisman, and then waved it, sending the golden rune towards the fleeing Hanba.
Hanba frowned as he looked at the rune that was rushing towards him at high speed. He was about to dodge, but he found that the rune was even faster than him and hit him directly.
The moment the rune hit it, it turned into golden threads that wrapped around its body, instantly making it unable to move.
The flames burning on Hanba's body went out, and he fell from the air, hitting the ground with a loud bang.
Master Jiang Tianshi looked at the scene in front of him, his mouth slightly open, his jaw almost dropped in shock.
So many people on the mountain tried their best to catch the drought demon, but Li Zhi just made a slight move and knocked the drought demon down from the sky.
I dare not imagine that if she attacks with all her strength, it would probably destroy the world.
It’s so powerful!
Li Zhi raised her hand again, and the drought demon wrapped in golden threads slowly floated up from the pit a few meters ahead, moved towards her, and finally landed gently at her feet.
Without the layer of flames blocking its view, the appearance of Hanba was fully revealed.
He was naked, his skin was red and covered with black scabs, he had no face, and his gender was unrecognizable. He just looked like a simple human.
The thunder grew louder and louder. Li Zhi turned to look at Master Jiang and said, "I'll take it away first. You deal with Taoist Xuanqing. Just say that the drought demon has escaped and I'm going after it."
After she finished speaking, she drew a teleportation talisman and left with Hanba, leaving behind a confused Jiang Tianshi.
