Bai Ji's eyes moved, and the tip of his gun pointed at the round pit, causing the women to fall silent.
He shouted, "Luo Jianqing, if you were here, could you watch others die for you? As a monster, you shouldn't exist in this world. If you hadn't appeared, these people would have died because of you. Heaven has its own laws, karma has its own destiny, and all of this is on you. Can you bear it?"
In response to Bai Ji, there was a faint wind blowing from the Mengsha River.
Bai Ji turned and glanced at his family members. They nodded slightly at him. Bai Ji said calmly, "Since you refuse to show up, I will kill one person for every stick of incense. Once they are all dead, I will have these children jump in and light a big fire."
After waiting for an incense stick of time, Bai Ji calmly lowered his head and looked towards the round pit. He narrowed his eyes, and a seemingly ordinary breeze blew towards one of the women. Just as the breeze was about to reach the woman, there was a "crack" sound, and the breeze broke in mid-air.
Bai Ji said: "Luo Jianqing!"
A cyan figure approached from the misty Mengsha River. He wore simple, coarse linen clothing, and had a plain, handsome appearance, his brows furrowed. He gazed at the handsome young monk in the distance and asked in a cold voice, "With my strength, killing you is a piece of cake. With my master's power, killing everyone present would be a piece of cake. Bai Ji, what makes you so confident that you dare to do such a thing and lure me out?"
"Heavenly Sea-Breaking Formation!"
Bai Ji shouted loudly, answering Luo Jianqing's question at once.
Looking at this familiar formation, Luo Jianqing's expression was complicated and he didn't know what expression to make.
Ever since Luo Jianqing first encountered this formation, he has been fighting against it for a full thirty years.
It turns out that Bai Ji's confidence was not without reason. At this moment in this dream village, there were two Mahayana cultivators, four Tribulation Crossing cultivators, seven Fusion cultivators, and ten Out-of-Body cultivators. However, there were over a hundred Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators combined!
The Sky-Suppressing Sea-Breaking Formation didn't require a high level of cultivation to achieve its perfect effect; as long as a large number of people were present, it could reach its peak. Just like the Sky-Suppressing Sea-Breaking Formation that the demon race had deployed in Qizhou, Mingzhou, and Chaozhou, they used the flesh and blood of almost all third- and fourth-tier Earth-level demon beasts, yet they managed to form a formidable formation with tens of thousands of them, blocking countless Mahayana cultivators.
The formation set up by Bai Ji in front of him was as powerful as that of a cultivator in the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. Although it could not pose a threat to Xuan Lingzi in his prime, it could still barely provide a resistance.
Luo Jianqing's expression turned cold, and his eyes swept across the children and women behind Bai Ji. Suddenly, he took out a sword, pointed his toes, and charged towards the formation.
Bai Ji was the core of the Tianqing Pohai Formation. He wielded a long spear, leveraging the formation's power to fight Luo Jianqing for several rounds. However, Luo Jianqing's attacks grew increasingly fierce, each strike piercing Bai Ji's vital points. His expression changed drastically, and he quickly shouted, "Defend!"
In an instant, all the cultivators led by Bai Ji fell to the ground, and the Tianqing Pohai Formation suddenly fell to the ground, forming a defensive formation.
Luo Jianqing had anticipated this a long time ago. He just held the Frost Floating Sword but did not move.
The children on the side were already stunned. They looked at their teacher in disbelief, watching the weak and handsome teacher holding a sword and fighting with so many immortals, and even knocking them to the ground!
Luo Jiandan held the sword in one hand and confronted Bai Ji and his men.
Bai Ji's expression was solemn, not daring to relax at all. He was cautiously guarding against Xuan Lingzi's sneak attacks. Although according to Du Jue Tian Lao, Xuan Lingzi seemed to be seriously injured and his strength would not be fully restored even after ten years, Bai Ji did not dare to relax.
At this moment, Luo Jianqing smiled slightly and suddenly said, "Are you jealous of me?"
Bai Ji was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "Nonsense!"
The smile on Luo Jianqing's lips grew wider. He looked at Bai Ji with disdain, shook his head slightly, sighed, and said, "I never thought that eighty years ago, your realm was one level higher than mine, but now you are only at the Fusion Stage. Today, it only takes a moment for me to break through to the Mahayana Stage, but you want to break through to the Tribulation Stage, but you haven't even overcome the numerous heavenly tribulations. The 'Four Heroes of Xuantian' in the past were nothing more than that. Aside from the Buddha's son, I have never taken the other three of you seriously."
Bai Ji's face turned pale: "Luo Jianqing!"
Luo Jianqing smiled. His face wasn't particularly stunning, not even as handsome as Bai Ji's. But when he smiled, it was like a glimmer of light, drawing people's gazes. As the people of Meng Village stared in shock, Luo Jianqing's right hand briefly brushed across his face, and a strikingly handsome face appeared on the Mengsha River.
At this moment, it seemed as if even the breeze had stopped.
No matter how simple the coarse linen clothes are, they cannot hide such a dazzling and outstanding person. His black hair flutters in the wind. He raises his head slightly, his delicate eyebrows are as black as a painting, and his thin lips are slightly pursed. Without saying a word, he can attract everyone's attention.
He said, "You are jealous of me."
He added, "You have always been jealous of me, jealous that I am better than you in every way."
Bai Ji was furious. He tried his best to suppress his anger and said, "Luo Jianqing! You're talking nonsense! I don't need to be jealous of you!"
Luo Jianqing raised the corners of his lips. "But you're just jealous of me. Seventy years ago, I defeated Yun Rong on Mount Taihua and shattered the myth of the 'Four Heroes of Xuantian'. Forty years ago, I ascended to the Azure Dragon throne and was the first to defeat the demon army. Thirty years ago, I battled fiercely against the heroes in that far north. You were only in the late Out-of-Body stage back then, and I never took you seriously. Now, you've joined forces with other Mahayana and Tribulation Crossing cultivators to compete with me."
After a pause, Luo Jianqing smiled strangely and said, "Bai Ji... I thought about it for a long time before I remembered your name. So, you are Bai Ji. You seem to be the third young master of the Bai family?"
Luo Jianqing's voice was filled with laughter. His condescending look made Bai Ji unbearable. He clenched the gun in his hand, but he was not impulsive enough to attack without hesitation.
He spoke in a hoarse voice, "Luo Jianqing, you..."
The voice stopped abruptly, Bai Ji immediately turned around, and the several human masters beside him also quickly retreated.
But it was too late. Xuan Lingzi seized the moment their attention was focused on Luo Jianqing and, with a wave of his sleeve, swept everyone from Meng Village behind him. On a Earth-class flying treasure ship, the women and children of Meng Village were still dazed. Xuan Lingzi, dressed in white, stood at the bow, his mighty power as a Spiritual Transformation Stage cultivator weighed heavily on Bai Ji and the others.
Luo Jianqing breathed a sigh of relief and said to Xuan Lingzi, "Master."
Xuan Lingzi nodded at him.
Luo Jianqing seemed to have unloaded a heavy burden. He turned his head and looked at the furious Bai Ji, his lips curled up, but the smile did not reach his eyes. He said: "Seventy years ago, I severely injured Bai Chi, the seventh-ranked member of your Bai family, with a single sword strike. Today, I
