Chapter 550 - 291 Chasing the Enemy_2

"Boom!"

In an instant, the remaining four cultivators all made their moves.

This time, the sky was filled with flying swords, talismans, flames, and even spirit beasts, all rushing forward.

"Hehe! I’ll slowly play with you guys!"

The Yin Mountain Bone Demon sneered, retreating his body back, his figure once again hiding in the darkness, disappearing.

Meanwhile, the nine blood-red great banners glowed even brighter, the ghosts within each banner flying out, continuously attacking the four cultivators.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, within the array, primordial energy surged violently, a streak of blood-red light, like lightning, shot towards a middle-aged female cultivator.

"No!"

The woman’s face changed instantly, but before she could evade, the blood-red light already pierced through her body, leaving a bloody hole in her chest.

"Ah..."

Strong as she was, even a Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator with a hole in her chest staggered twice within the array before collapsing to the ground.

The battle didn’t last long before the second Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator fell.

"No!"

"What do we do?"

"We are totally outmatched!"

...

The remaining three’s expressions changed drastically, looking at the nine blood-red great banners shaking fiercely, they nearly fell into despair.

"Hahaha! Still not surrendering?"

Killing another one, the Yin Mountain Bone Demon’s confidence soared. He lunged forward, his hands repeatedly clawing at the remaining three, causing the space within the array to tremble, waves rippling through the void.

"Bang!"

Another cultivator carelessly got torn half to pieces by the ghost flying out of one of the great banners, dying on the spot.

As for the remaining two, they had no more strength to resist, soon after, each was killed by the Yin Mountain Bone Demon.

"Hehe!"

The Yin Mountain Bone Demon laughed, searched through the five corpses, collected the relatively intact four bodies.

These four corpses could still be used to refine into puppets.

Briefly cleaning the battlefield, the Yin Mountain Bone Demon withdrew the array and disappeared again.

"Damn it! The Yin Mountain Bone Demon killed five cultivators here, but now we’ve lost his trail!"

Shortly after the Yin Mountain Bone Demon left, Fang Long and Li Chuanghai had arrived here, their eyes flashing with murderous intent, seething with rage.

"What do we do?"

Li Chuanghai, unfamiliar with this area, asked.

"We originally came to the mountains to pick ’Dan Yang Fruits’, but first we encountered the ’Red Sun Snake Race’, then got overtaken by the Yin Mountain Bone Demon — demons everywhere!"

"This commotion is too big! It’s beyond what we can handle!"

"I suggest reporting to the sect, requesting Golden Core Realm elders to eradicate the ’Red Sun Snake Race’!"

"Meanwhile, issue a bounty order, search the thirty thousand miles radius comprehensively, we cannot let the Yin Mountain Bone Demon escape!"

Fang Long suggested first.

He initially planned to handle this using the capability of the ’Red Sun Valley’, but failed, now must request support from the sect.

"Alright! It’s our only option!"

Li Chuanghai’s face was extremely grim, being one of the powerful true disciples.

Li Chuanghai had gotten wind of the ’Dan Yang Fruit’ news unexpectedly, enlisted several friends, and local expert Fang Long’s help, only to end up with nothing!

This bruised his ego greatly.

Ignoring comforting Li Chuanghai, Fang Long quickly took out the ’Myriad Li Communication Talisman’, sending the information immediately.

Soon, the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’ thousands of miles away received the information.

In a short while, a bounty order was issued from the ’Task Hall’.

Then, members of the ’Law Enforcement Hall’ mobilized, three ’Cyan Cloud Ships’, carrying batches of ’Law Enforcement Hall’ disciples, heading towards ’Red Sun Valley’.

Meanwhile at ’Qiuwu Manor’, the identity tokens of Li Yunjing, Lv Ruoxi, and Yu Yunyi displayed the latest task update.

"Yin Mountain Bone Demon? And ’Dan Yang Fruit’?"

Seeing the message, Li Yunjing’s eyes lit up.

"Yunjing, shall we go too?"

Yu Yunyi asked curiously.

This task was issued by the ’Task Hall’, it wasn’t mandatory, true disciples could take it if they wished, and the reward was only contribution points.

These contribution points didn’t matter to Li Yunjing, Lv Ruoxi, or Yu Yunyi, but the Yin Mountain Bone Demon and ’Dan Yang Fruit’ were highly enticing.

Especially the ’Dan Yang Fruit’, a high-tier material of the third rank, a treasure aiding in Core Formation.

Such treasures were invaluable, and neither Li Yunjing, nor Yu Yunyi, nor Lv Ruoxi had items of such caliber.

These rare treasures are what ’Dan Yang Fruit’ represents.

"That Yin Mountain Bone Demon bastard, massacring five Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, he must have a lot of wealth, plus nine ’Dan Yang Fruits’, he’s a fat sheep! We’ve been consuming too many resources recently; for both public and private reasons, we can’t let him go."

Li Yunjing said with a smile.

Yet the cold glint in his eyes flashed by, letting Yu Yunyi and Lv Ruoxi understand, Li Yunjing had not forgotten being hunted by the Yin Mountain Bone Demon years ago.

"Alright! His cultivation having reached the Foundation Establishment Realm Sixth Heaven, he mustn’t be underestimated, let’s act together!"

Supporting her man, Yu Yunyi naturally agreed.

Lv Ruoxi reminded, "We must come back early; your affairs with Han Yanzhi are more important than anything! If we miss the day, it would be a disgrace to the entire sect!"

"Got it! ’Red Sun Valley’ isn’t far from here, it’ll only take us a quarter-hour, we won’t delay important matters!"

Li Yunjing’s face held a faint smile.

From start to finish, he hadn’t considered the Yin Mountain Bone Demon a real threat!

Had it been the border area, Li Yunjing would be more cautious, but here it is within the Great Ming Dynasty, the heartland of the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’, the Yin Mountain Bone Demon, a lone fugitive, what could he possibly do to oppose him?

"Let’s go!"

Resolute, Li Yunjing, Yu Yunyi, and Lv Ruoxi first used the ’Seven Star Palace’ teleportation array, arriving at the ’Red Sun Market’, then took the ’Cyan Cloud Ship’ from the market, starting their search.

Li Yunjing’s divine sense was exceptionally strong; he was confident his divine sense was more powerful than the Yin Mountain Bone Demon’s, with coverage definitely reaching the late Foundation Establishment Realm level.

Flying the ’Cyan Cloud Ship’ as per Fang Long’s report, Li Yunjing calculated a direction, pursuing accordingly.

This time, ensuring success, Li Yunjing even borrowed a ’Thousand-Mile Tracking Mirror’ from Xu Wuyi, the mirror’s light, under the mana’s activation, kept scanning the land, everything within it.

Whether it be mountains, rivers, or those sand and soil particles, they were all within the search range.

Of course, living beings too; villages, towns, various birds, and beasts were all within Li Yunjing’s search.

Nothing with a hint of demonic qi could evade the tracking.

"Hmm?"

Following the set direction, Li Yunjing had Yu Yunyi and Lv Ruoxi use the ’Thousand-Mile Tracking Mirror’ to search, while his divine sense kept probing around, the ’Shenxiao Divine Forging Celestial Secret Technique’ was activated constantly.

A faint red mark appeared at his brow, seemingly ready to open a vertical eye.

Under such meticulous searching, Li Yunjing’s divine sense suddenly sensed a coldness, like needle piercing, intensely chilling.

"What’s wrong?"

Yu Yunyi, keen and observant, noticed Li Yunjing’s surprise, asked.

"Hehe! I sensed something unusual, this brat is playing hide and seek with us!"

Li Yunjing sneered.

"What? Have you found his location?"

Lv Ruoxi asked.
