Chapter 419 Ten Thousand Years and Ten Thousand Years
“As expected, I was right. You, and all of you, are indeed not from those weak human cultivation sects outside.” Wang Mingzhi chuckled, his eyes flashing with a sharp light, and the array plate behind him became increasingly turbid and foul.
Indeed, someone who can withstand the pressure of a Nascent Soul cultivator and survive is unlikely to be of mediocre talent.
So—Jiang Li pursed her lips, silently accelerating the operation of the Qiankun Heart Sutra, rapidly absorbing spiritual energy to replenish her dantian.
The city lord knew from the beginning that they were lying; he had the guards deliberately let them in at the city gate.
But, why?
Wasn't he afraid that the disciples of the three major sects would see through his disguise? How come he lured them in this time?
wait wait wait!
After entering Chang Le City, they were forced or went to the city lord's mansion one after another, but he did not take Fang Wan Ning with him...
A terrifying thought flashed through her mind, and Jiang Liqian stared at "Wang Mingzhi" with even colder eyes: "You also captured Su Yanqing and Shi Tou and brought them to the City Lord's Mansion?"
Wang Mingzhi laughed mockingly twice, then suddenly stared cruelly at Jiang Liqian, licking his lips as if preparing to enjoy some delicacies.
"Don't worry, one of them is a charlatan I hate just looking at, and the other is some wild kid who came from who-knows-where. They're no use to me!"
Of course, he had considered capturing them as bait and hostages, but when the Thousand Prism appeared in front of them, one of them shattered under his heavenly might with just one glance, and the other was completely out of the control of the Thousand Prism, forcing him to take it back.
However, with his men surrounding him outside, he wasn't afraid of those two guys breaking into the city lord's mansion and causing trouble.
Now that the net has been cast, it's time for him to reap what he sows.
Wang Mingzhi stopped wasting words with Jiang Liqian and gathered his strength to deliver the final blow. A pair of huge claws appeared in mid-air, carrying a green, malevolent evil spirit, and swept towards the girl who was almost bleeding to death.
Faced with such terrifying power, Jiang Liqian showed no fear. On the contrary, Qin Beiyao and Shui Lian'er, who were pressed to the ground by the pressure, looked terrified and struggled to shout her name, trying to rush over and push her away.
As the Yin Claws approached, Jiang Liqian poured all her spiritual power into the golden whip, leaped into the air, and swung it with all her might at the two claw shadows.
The purple lightning crackled and popped, unexpectedly whipping up a violent gust of wind.
Wang Mingzhi's confident attack shattered amidst the purple lightning. His mouth gaped open in disbelief, then he gritted his teeth in extreme anger and said, "I wanted to give you a quick death, but it seems you're not so lucky!"
He shouted, and the array plate behind him instantly rose above everyone's heads. The ground shook violently, and countless evil spirits surged out one after another, using the array plate as a medium.
Jiang Liqian immediately turned towards Qin Beiyao and Shui Lian'er. Seeing that they were able to stand up and fight the evil spirits, she breathed a sigh of relief and turned to rush into the group of evil spirits.
She wanted all these audacious, ignorant, and unauthorized evil spirits that traversed the human and spiritual realms to perish here, so that they would know what the rules of heaven and earth are, and what it means to be annihilated and fearful!
The Spirit-Suppressing Pearl flew into the sky, a trace of blood imprinted on it, and a huge "golden" character, gathering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, suddenly pressed down on the evil spirits that were running around everywhere.
Countless evil spirits howled and vanished into thin air in an instant.
Jiang Liqian seized the opportunity and summoned the Flowing Snow Floating Light Belt to attack "Wang Mingzhi".
Wang Mingzhi truly hadn't expected that a mere Golden Core cultivator, who hadn't even reached the Nascent Soul stage, could withstand his attacks and even launch a counterattack.
However, he was no pushover. With a mere flick of his claw, the Floating Snow Light Belt was forcibly swept away, and countless snowflakes fell. Wherever they passed, the evil spirits were frozen and then shattered by Jiang Liqian.
The golden whip pierced through the air, its fierce lightning energy almost solidifying.
Jiang Liqian used all her strength, but facing Wang Mingzhi, who was at the Nascent Soul stage, her attack was still easily countered. He grabbed the other end of the whip, and Jiang Liqian made a decisive move, transforming the golden whip back into twelve golden beads. A small array was instantly formed, and dozens of sharp arrows carrying lightning spiritual power pierced straight through his palm.
Demonic energy, accompanied by blood, surged from his palm. "Wang Mingzhi" felt pain as the lightning spiritual power that rushed into his body disrupted his demonic energy, causing him to sway and almost fall from mid-air.
Enraged, he struck with his palm. Jiang Liqian quickly retreated, and he immediately unleashed all his pressure on her alone. Jiang Liqian's figure froze, and the next second, five sharp claws were already embedded in her skull.
The warm blood blurred her vision for a moment.
All he could hear was Wang Mingzhi's ferocious and unrestrained laughter: "Hahaha... Finally, finally, the best, the most favored by the Heavenly Dao, lightning spiritual root is going to be mine, hahaha!"
He grabbed Jiang Liqian's hair with one hand and patted her face contemptuously: "I told you to behave, how dare a mere Golden Core cultivator fight against me!"
"But don't worry, I will carefully and completely extract your spiritual root, and then use your life force and physical bodies, along with those of everyone in the city lord's mansion, to create a new puppet body. Then I will put your lightning spiritual root into it, so that I can possess it and become the true master of all things, the human cultivator most protected by the Heavenly Dao!"
"I no longer need to cultivate for ten thousand years like other demon cultivators, and be subjected to the most cruel methods of Heaven, having my tendons and bones pulled out, my skin peeled off and my body destroyed, before I can have the chance to see what the immortal sect looks like!"
"It takes tens of thousands of years for a demon to become an immortal, and then tens of thousands more. Why is it that humans can cultivate in just a few hundred or a few thousand years?"
Wang Mingzhi gritted his teeth, looking as if he wanted to crush all the human cultivators, but he quickly regained his smug expression. "It's alright, it's alright, I can just become human... I originally thought I would have to rely on the spiritual roots of those second-rate disciples, but I didn't expect you to deliver yourself to my door. Isn't this fate?"
After Wang Mingzhi finished laughing, his eyes suddenly darkened, and he was about to extract Jiang Liqian's spiritual root.
Jiang Liqian, who was on the verge of death, suddenly unleashed astonishing power and pierced his heart with a sword.
The smug "Wang Mingzhi" froze for a moment, then slowly looked down at his chest.
There, a phantom sword shadow was piercing straight into his heart, and the powerful sword energy instantly shattered all the spiritual meridians in his limbs and bones.
Jiang Liqian's chest heaved violently, blood kept flowing down her head and shoulders, but her hand gripping the sword hilt did not tremble.
"You were seriously injured before you possessed the body of the Lord of Chang Le City, right? That's why you need to absorb the life force of so many people to recover your strength!"
