Traveling through the Immortal Realm: Starting from Becoming a Top-Level Furnace Cauldron

Chapter 195 Ambush

Youmingzi let out a painful roar, and the sound waves made the surrounding stone pillars tremble, and many soldiers were shocked to the point of bleeding from all seven orifices.

"Well done!" Bai Zheng showed a look of surprise. Seeing that his actions had stopped, he took advantage of the opportunity to pursue him.

"White Wave Heart Technique, Guanchuan!"

As Bai Zheng roared, the spiritual power around him was like a surging river, roaring and gathering towards the sword in his hand.

The sword shone brightly, and a streak of water spiritual power that seemed to be real, with the force of breaking the sea, slashed down fiercely towards Youmingzi.

Although Youmingzi was seriously injured, he was not willing to give in. He danced wildly with his few remaining long legs and spun rapidly in front of his body, trying to use his iron-hard shell to block the fierce attack.

There was another loud noise, and the white silk thread slashed heavily on Youmingzi's leg, spurting out a large amount of black devil blood.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Youmingzi roared in pain, and his other thigh broke with a sound. His huge body lost balance and fell backwards with a bang.

This fall was like a landslide, crushing a large number of surrounding stone pillars and stirring up dust and rubble all over the sky.

Li Yue took advantage of the situation and rushed forward, with flames blazing on his long sword.

"Fourfold wildfire, raging flames!"

He gripped the long knife tightly, jumped high, and used the momentum of falling to chop hard at Youmingzi's back.

The blade collided with the shell of the moth, making a harsh friction sound and sparks flying everywhere.

"Ants... ants!" You Mingzi screamed, "They are clearly a bunch of lowly creatures. How dare they hurt me!?"

The shell was forcibly split open, and boiling demonic blood gushed out, instantly gathering on the ground into a pool of blood emitting a foul odor.

"Hmph, let's see how long you can hold on!"

Li Yue landed heavily on the ground, gasping for breath, but his eyes were fixed on Youmingzi like torches, and the long sword in his hand was still tightly grasped, guarding against it counterattacking him.

You Mingzi endured the severe pain and struggled to get up again. His pale face was now distorted beyond recognition, and he let out an indistinct roar from between his teeth: "You damned humans, how dare you seriously injure me? I will devour you all!"

While roaring, it tried desperately to mobilize the remaining spiritual power in its body. The black mist around it began to gather slowly, trying to launch another attack.

Bai Zheng and Li Yue looked at each other and understood each other. They quickly adjusted their positions and surrounded the moth like a horn, not giving it a chance to breathe and escape.

The long sword in Bai Zheng's hand hummed, and the water spiritual power continued to surge, condensing into a crystal clear water droplet at the tip of the sword. It looked small, but it contained tremendous power.

Li Yue held his long sword across his chest, flames dancing and swirling on the blade, illuminating his red face, as if he were a fire demon from hell.

"Suffer to death!"

The two shouted in unison and attacked at the same time.

The water droplet on the tip of Bai Zheng's sword shot out like an arrow, straight towards You Mingzi's head.

Li Yue swung his long sword, releasing a crescent-shaped flaming blade, which attacked from the front and back with the water droplets, and his target was also the most fatal part of Youmingzi's head.

Youmingzi widened his eyes in horror and wanted to dodge, but it was too late.

The water droplets hit its left eye first, instantly bursting its eyeball and splashing black juice out.

Immediately afterwards, the flaming blade slashed fiercely on the top of its head, and went all the way down, splitting its head in half.

"impossible……"

"This is impossible……"

"How could the new body the Demon Lord bestowed upon me be so fragile..."

Youmingzi trembled violently for a few times, and finally stopped moving and fell to the ground with a bang.

Li Yue drew her sword and supported herself, looking at You Mingzi's body. "Is it solved?"

"Your head is cracked, how can you still breathe?" Bai Zheng said.

Li Yue was worried, so he stood up tremblingly and prepared to take a closer look. However, just as he was about to get closer, a sharp laugh sounded from above the stone pillar.

"Who is it!" Li Yue shouted.

"Hahahaha... I didn't expect this big guy to die so quickly." Chi Liuli sat on top of the stone pillar, shaking his white legs. "It's just a body pieced together from debris. Does he really think he's invincible?"

Bai Zheng gripped his sword tightly and asked calmly, "Who are you?"

"You have a good face. If you were ten years younger, perhaps I could still take you in as my favorite," Chi Liuli chuckled. "It's a pity that the Demon Lord has ordered your utter extermination, so you won't be spared."

Li Yue stared at Chi Liuli.

The aura emanating from this woman is much more ferocious than that of the giant insect. She is very likely a powerful person who has entered the Golden Core stage.

Li Yue took a deep breath, held his sword horizontally, and took a defensive stance: "No matter who you are, if you dare to stop us, today you will never return!"

Bai Zheng's expression was also stern, and the water spirit power quietly flowed through the sword, ready to strike. He whispered to Li Yue, "General Li, be careful. She dared to show up after the giant insect died. She must have something to rely on."

Seeing this, Chi Liuli let out a silver bell-like laugh, but the laughter was like an ice knife cutting the eardrums: "Oh, two grown men, quite imposing."

"However, do you think that you can sit back and relax after killing Youmingzi? You are too naive!"

After saying that, she jumped lightly, her figure as light as a swallow, floating down from the top of the stone pillar and landing steadily a hundred meters away from the two of them.

Only then did Li Yue and Bai Zheng see her appearance clearly.

Chi Liuli was wearing a tight red dress that outlined her graceful figure. Her skin was as white as snow, but her eyes were a strange blood red.

Her long black hair was casually draped behind her, fluttering gently in the breeze, like a soul-catcher from hell.

"Have you seen enough? Next, it's your turn to hit the road—the Blood Prison River!"

Chi Liuli raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a playful smile.

In just a moment, the area they were in was shrouded in a red shadow, and countless wailing ghosts appeared out of thin air, floating wantonly in the air.

"Field skills?"

Bai Zheng frowned. Although he was also in the Jindan stage, he had never comprehended the field skills related to the Heart Sutra. Only those with great luck could have such an opportunity.

However, just as he was about to raise his sword, there was a commotion from the rear of the army.

"What's going on? What happened?" Li Yue shouted.

"Report to the commander-in-chief, a large number of ghost corpses suddenly appeared in the rear, cutting off our retreat!" The soldier behind him said in panic.

Li Yue and Bai Zheng looked at each other and saw shock and solemnity in each other's eyes.

"Ghost corpse?"

"This demon cultivator really has a backup plan!"

Bai Zheng gritted his teeth, and water spiritual power surged around his sword, ready to fight to the death.

"What else?" Chi Liuli chuckled, "There will naturally be people to deal with the reinforcements that come after you."

"Could it be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?!" Li Yue's face changed slightly.

Bai Zheng's heart tightened when he heard this. He looked at Li Yue and whispered, "General Li, it seems these demon cultivators have been preparing for our arrival. A sudden advance is not going to be advantageous. Let's make a detour first!"

Li Yue nodded and turned to look around at the soldiers.

"All troops, listen!" Li Yue swung his long sword, blazing with flames as he roared, "Form a sword formation! Don't panic! Charge from the rear!"

The soldiers cheered themselves up and responded in unison. With the swords flashing, they bravely charged towards the group of ghost corpses.

After Chi Liuli retreated from Yiluo, she had accumulated a lot of resentment. Now that she had finally found someone to vent her anger on, how could she let the opportunity fly away?

"Now that you're here, don't even think about leaving!"
