Chapter 153 - 152: Li Yaos Final Request

Chapter 153: Chapter 152: Li Yao’s Final Request

The Fierce Sun Dynasty gained an advantage with the augmentation of the Third Grade Elixir “Flame Sun Ice Breaking Pill”, reversing the Five Elements to counteract the Water Technique!

With their own treasure superiority and the constant activation of various talismans, five of them were evenly matched against the six cultivators from the Sea God Dynasty.

If it hadn’t been for the extremely powerful magic of the team leader Li Yao, Yang Fu and his men could have easily taken victory.

At this moment, the two sides were engaged in fierce battle, the might of their techniques erupting, causing spiritual energy to surge and the earth to crack.

This display of power surprised the disciples of the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect, who were always highly arrogant.

Especially those early Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, who thought such small skirmishes weren’t worth watching, now felt a destructive momentum just by witnessing the battle.

“These are Qi Refining Stage cultivators??”

“The full force of these spells… if I don’t suppress them with my Dao Foundation Fire, I’m afraid I could only manage a draw with them.”

“Against multiple adversaries, I fear I’d only be able to flee with object manipulation.”

The most representative aspect of the Foundation Establishment Stage is the formidable and concentrated Divine Thought, which allows manipulation of objects and an elevated control over magic treasures.

This makes it extremely difficult for Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators to be killed.

If you can’t beat them, run.

And the magical struggle that had erupted was already comparable to the combative level of the Foundation Establishment Stage!

These early Foundation Establishment disciples from the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect also learned a lot from this, especially the ruthlessness and perseverance of the disciples from the lower realms… their spirit was completely different from those floating in the serenity of the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect’s Immortal Palace.

If it hadn’t been for the teleportation talismans specially crafted by the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect that every participant was wearing before entering the Dragon Seeking Secret Realm, this battle… would’ve resulted in death!

One false move could lead to both physical and spiritual annihilation!

Meanwhile, outside the main battlefield of spell combat, Yang Fushuo was ‘secretly’ concocting elixirs.

This left the spectating disciples of the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect unsure of what to make of it.

“If Yang Fushuo were to join the battle now, he might be able to defeat the cultivators of the Sea God Dynasty directly…”

“Could it be that he’s capable of concocting an even better elixir than the one he just made?”

“By the time he’s done concocting, the battle here would have been fought several times over… Qi Refining Stage cultivators don’t have such an abundance of spiritual energy to waste a whole day, do they?”

“However, Yang Fushuo is also of exceptional talent; concocting elixirs with his bare hands… his potential in elixir arts is extremely high, I’m afraid none of us can match him!”

“Concocting elixirs like this is quite dangerous, too. If there were an alchemy furnace, in the event of an unstable control of spiritual energy within the elixir, the explosion would be absorbed mostly by the furnace, and the residual energy escape wouldn’t pose a fatal threat to the alchemist. But without a furnace… if concoction fails, it might result in terrible consequences.”

Murong Ziyuan frowned upon hearing this, seemingly also puzzled.

The cultivators from the Twelve Dynasties cheered joyfully!

Especially those from the Sea God Dynasty.

“Good, good, good! Yang Fushuo has gone nuts at the last minute, forfeiting the championship that was within easy reach!”

“Don’t think for a second that our Li Yao doesn’t have a trump card!”

“The arrogant Fierce Sun Dynasty will pay the price!”

“Go Li Yao!”

People from other dynasties also disliked the Fierce Sun Dynasty, and the ‘old six’ tactics of Yang Fu and Yang Fushuo had offended 10 dynasties… Not including the Danai Dynasty, since they had been eliminated from cultivation early on.

It was rare for the competition on the Immortal Path to see such unanimous collective opposition against one dynasty.

Their eyes turned to Li Xuyang, eager to see the expression on the face of Yang Fushuo’s master at this moment.

Seeing Li Xuyang frown deeply, his face full of worry, the crowd burst into laughter.

“Fellow Daoist Li, your disciple is about to squander the advantage of the Fierce Sun Dynasty.”

“This might be the closest the Fierce Sun Dynasty has ever come to the championship, right?”

“What a pity… Look there, the 16 cultivators have discovered the hidden Yang Fushuo, he’s going to be eliminated~”

“It seems that a cultivator must cultivate not only their techniques but also their temperament. Don’t let your mind go cloudy during a big battle…”

“Fellow Daoist Li, beware of your disciple, this might be a sign of elixir concoction leading to madness.”

Faced with the ridicule from the other dynasties, Li Xuyang’s frown only deepened, and finally, he stood up.

“Douyang Cultivator! I have a question!”

The Douyang Cultivator was also watching the battle and was puzzled by Yang Fushuo’s sudden decision to concoct elixirs.

“What is it?”

“This teleportation talisman… What’s the maximum might of a spell it can withstand? If the spell’s power is too high, could it endanger the disciple’s life?”

“It can withstand spells up to Foundation Establishment Stage. In the third round of the competition for the Immortal Path, there has never been an incident of a disciple’s death. Even if Yang Fushuo were to be besieged by 16 people, he would be fine. Fellow Daoist Li can rest assured.”

“Oh, I’m not worried about Fushuo…”

The others: “?”

“What do you mean by that, Daoist Li?”

“If he’s not worried about Yang Fushuo, then what is he concerned about?”

The cultivators from the Twelve Dynasties vaguely sensed that something was amiss and together turned their attention to the elixir-concocting Yang Fushuo, who was frantically stuffing medicines into his hands, tossing in various spiritual medicines without even looking.

“Who taught him to concoct elixirs like this?! Isn’t this asking for an explosion?”

“No, he doesn’t have a pill furnace either!”

“So who is he trying to blow up?”

Li Xuyang slightly turned his head away.

Meanwhile, ‘secretly’ hidden Yang Fushuo had already been found by 16 cultivators.

He was panicking, “How… how did you find me!”

Sweat started appearing on his forehead, and he casually tossed a handful of elixirs into the fire.

“So you are Yang Fushuo, huh! You flew quite fast during the first challenge on the heavenly ladder!”

“Don’t be scared, this kid’s alchemy has already taken up most of his attention, he can’t possibly fight back. We can do whatever we want to him! Kekeke~”

“Hey! Then I’ll steal the elixirs off his body! It’ll give us a bit of confidence if a fight breaks out.”

Regardless of whether Yang Fushuo is annoying or not, his title as a Third Grade Alchemist is nothing to scoff at.

Inside, everyone calls him ‘kid’, but once they’re outside, they have to bow and call him Alchemist Yang…

“Don’t come any closer! The cultivators of the Fierce Sun Dynasty are very strong! After they’re done with him, they’ll take care of you!”

Yang Fushuo said threateningly, and then shoved another handful of spiritual medicine into the fire.

“Hahaha~ They’re too busy fighting to pay attention to you, so keep shouting. Even if you scream yourself hoarse, no one will come to save you!”

Yang Fushuo, looking at so many people, seemed to understand his fate, and he decided to try to negotiate.

“If that’s the case… let me finish this batch of elixir, and I’ll surrender, okay?”

He stuffed another handful of spiritual medicine inside, sweat on his face increasing, and in the spiritual fire a huge black elixir seemed to be brewing.

Fei Wu became a bit interested after hearing this.

“What kind of elixir is this? I’ve never seen such an elixir recipe.”

“No idea!” Yang Fushuo said with pride.

“You can refine without knowing?”

“Yeah!”

“Can it actually form an elixir?”

“No way!”

“Then what the heck are you proud of!”

“But failing is better than succeeding.”

Yang Fushuo released his grip and skillfully executed the Fire Escape, a streak of flaming luminescence flared and he vanished on the spot.

16 people: “What’s going on?”

The next second, within the azure blue flames, the huge black elixir… cracked open.

Boom!

A massive flame engulfed the sixteen people, and a small mushroom cloud rose from the ground!

Rumble!

The earth tremored, and mountains crumbled!

A giant dragon, which was in deep slumber, was startled awake!

Divine Sense shot out.

“Who blew up my Starfire Tree Sea!”

Outside, 16 flashes of white light twinkled, and 16 cultivators who were barely alive were teleported out.

Li Xuyang relieved that they were not in mortal danger, breathed a sigh of relief.

“Good, good…”

Other Dynasty cultivators: “???”

At that moment, they understood why Li Xuyang asked such a question just now.

He was not worried about Yang Fushuo; he was worried that other disciples would be killed by Yang Fushuo’s explosion!

“Why is Li Xuyang so adept at this?”

Meanwhile, the huge explosion caused a violent surge in spiritual power, blowing away the battling cultivators from the two dynasties.

Yang Fushuo, by himself, eliminated sixteen people.

A streak of flaming spiritual light flashed by as he chuckled and returned to the team of the Fierce Sun Dynasty.

“Alright, now there’s no one to disturb us.”

Li Yao looked at the Starfire Tree Sea, which had been flattened, and was stunned for a moment.

Finally, he gave a wry smile.

“We surrender…”

“But I have one more request.”
