Chapter 474: Eliminating Fu Daimu (III)
Yuan Chengdun's reputation was built by eliminating adversaries one after another.
Back when devil cultivators ravaged Mushroom Forest Plain, he defeated three-figure devil cultivators single-handedly. Three Foundation Establishment Realm devil cultivators even attempted to ambush him within a formation, yet he overcame them effortlessly and escaped unscathed.
In comparison, Xiao Yongling, the Man on Mount Feather, also fought against three opponents simultaneously. Although he emerged victorious, he sustained serious injuries, and his reputation never reached the heights of Yuan Chengdun's.
Fu Daimu recognized him from afar and, now with fear evident in his voice, called out, "You're... Daoist Yuan! Please reconsider your actions, I have backers within the sect!"
Li Tongya had slain the Maha with his sword, shocking the world, and became a renowned figure in Jiangnan. Yuan Chengdun's Sprawling Azure Mountain placed him among the top ten Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators in the last hundred years, so it was no wonder why Fu Daimu was momentarily thrown into disarray.
Yuan Chengdun did not respond, and only shook his head with a small smile. The Yuan Family had far more connections within the sect than the Li Family, so how could they not see through the trick? At that moment, he was just amused by Fu Daimu's threat.
Sprawling Azure Mountain excels at attacking and subduing evil, and this person's rod technique can be considered high-grade...
Fu Daimu's face darkened. Despite his surging mana, he was contemplating to escape. However, with the opponent's large formation and physical prowess, the success rate of his escape remained uncertain. His Dao Companion was still making breakthroughs in Great Jueting. Even if he could escape this time, they would still ambush him next time.
The odds stacked against him were just too high.
Li Yuanjiao and the others had no intention of giving him a chance to catch his breath, and various spells and sword techniques bombarded him relentlessly. Once again, Zhe Ledai lifted his broken dual swords to defend himself.
"Senior Brother, where did Fei Luoya find so many allies? I'm afraid we won't be able to get away today..." he said grimly.
Fu Daimu's spiritual sense continued to patrol the air, trying to locate Fei Luoya who had disappeared. With a surge of black qi in his hand, he smashed the incoming sword qi with his palm.
"I've underestimated this Fei Luoya! On one hand, he's begging for forgiveness; on the other, he's planning an ambush on me... If I had known, I wouldn't have trusted him!"
His expression grew more somber as he squeezed these words through his gritted teeth.
Zhe Ledai remained fully focused, gathering mana light as he held his swords up in front of him, blocking the maw of a lunging serpent dragon.
"Senior Brother! This is getting out of hand, it'll be difficult for both of us to escape alive. You have the Profound Light Escape Technique, please go quickly! I will stop them here for you," he transmitted his voice through mana.
Meanwhile, Li Yuanjiao pressed on, meeting the defense of a Foundation Establishment Realm talisman head-on. He activated his Jing Dragon King, conjuring a grayish-green serpent dragon that exploded into a series of mana water splashes upon colliding with the talisman.
Being quite versed in talisman cultivation, the three Foundation Establishment Realm talismans Fu Daimu had unleashed were powerful.
The series of attacks from Li Yuanjiao and Fei Luoya only managed to penetrate two layers of Fu Daimu's defense. Holding his ground, Fu Daimu seized this opportunity to cast his spells.
Fei Luoya's face paled as he clenched his teeth, biting off a piece of his tongue. Puffing up his cheeks, he spat out a blood arrow, shaking the golden light shield.
Seizing the moment to act, Li Yuanjiao sprang to his feet and thrust his Qingche Sword forward with ferocious intensity.
Rumble!
A ball of blood light exploded in the air. Despite being an early Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, Zhe Ledai relied on his own strength to repel both Li Wushao and Zhu Xian. Still possessing enough power to counterattack, he drove his dual swords into Li Yuanjiao's back with all his might.
Li Yuanjiao was unwilling to give up on the rare opportunity he had been waiting for. As he seemed on the verge of surrender, the Six-Stone Cloud Plate suddenly appeared behind him.
Amidst the earth-yellow glow, the Profound Patterned Bottle released a profound spirit mist, effectively blocking the incoming swords.
Clang!
The Qingche Sword pierced through the remaining spell shield. The greenish-white sword light surged directly toward Fu Daimu's face.
Pfft!
Fu Daimu caught the Qingche Sword firmly with his hand but the sharp sword qi pierced through the back of his hand. The old man from Mount Yue was furious, his eyes reddening even more as the spell in his hand had been interrupted.
Li Yuanjiao was also taking a beating as he had concentrated all his mana and true essence into the Qingche Sword. Although the Six-Stone Cloud Plate and Profound Patterned Bottle were still activated, Zhe Ledai's dual sword penetrated them easily, causing Li Yuanjiao to spit out fresh blood with the vibration of their mana.
Fu Daimu's heart filled with rage. After such a delay, Yuan Chengdun, having toppled over the Mountain of Human Heads, had already arrived in front of him. His murderous aura was intense as he swung the two golden rods that were aimed directly at Fu Daimu.
The outcome has been decided.
