Chapter 364: The Bargaining Chip
[Using skill 'Fight On, Dear Ancestor!']
[Detected that your strength has reached the Nascent Soul stage. Consumes 10 Family Will.]
[Your clansmen are gathering the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy of all Li clan descendants and the people of Merit City towards you, via the 'Ancestral Spirit Formation Diagram' formation on the Primordial Blood Tree!]
[Your strength is temporarily increasing!]
"Swish—"
The long spear advanced, carrying a power that could pierce through anything!
Li Wei's power was continuously strengthening—peak Nascent Soul stage... still strengthening. The Ancestral Spirit Formation Diagram was constantly increasing his power.
"What is this thing... What on earth are you?!?!"
Bai Yue no longer possessed her earlier arrogance; she was retreating frantically, continuously erecting ice walls before her. But her mid-Divinity Transformation stage ice walls were completely unable to block the North Star Spirit-Breaking Spear, which could break through all laws!
She was afraid. Her ice attacks pierced the body of the black mist figure before her, yet the opponent still madly thrust towards her. This strange black mist figure's power was also continuously increasing.
Even...
"Pfft, pfft, pfft!"
She could even sense that the black mist figure before her should inherently be weak; the augmented power was causing its meridians, bones, and Nascent Soul to shatter, yet it still thrust forward!
Until... the black mist figure's aura now reached Divinity Transformation!!!
"You cannot withstand such power! Aren't you afraid of death?!! Stop, stop quickly! I am an Elder of the Divine Bird Totem! I have great authority! I can sign an agreement with your Azure Cloud region! I can guarantee that our Divine Bird Totem will not invade the Azure Cloud region again for ten thousand years! Don't come any closer!"
The wheel behind Bai Yue spun frantically, the power of lunar radiance pouring into her body. This power of lunar radiance and ice crystals was even stronger than when she faced Wang Jinhu's attacks or contended with Daoist Shanchen.
But this time, she didn't even dare to attack!
The attack from the black mist figure before her had come too suddenly, and that long spear was too bizarre. Now, in Bai Yue's eyes, there was only the tip of the North Star Spirit-Breaking Spear! She no longer dared to attack; the black mist figure's speed was increasing, its power growing stronger. She could only continuously use Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi to form ice walls and retreat at her fastest speed.
Bai Yue didn't even know how much Heaven and Earth spiritual energy she had consumed anymore. She only wanted to escape this long spear, escape this damned Azure Cloud region!
"Stop! You piece of trash, stop! Can't you hear me?!?!"
Ice walls were shattering, and the laws of heaven and earth were being broken through. Bai Yue was roaring, using all the power in her body. She could no longer perceive that her own aura was continuously weakening, nor even notice that the companion Lunar Radiance Wheel behind her was continuously shattering!
But what she didn't know was that the Li Wei before her also couldn't stop!
Li Wei remained silent.
Bai Yue was right; at this moment, he couldn't withstand such power. Furthermore, no one knew what kind of torture his pain-feeling body was enduring, even though he wouldn't die now. This power was swelling, unbearable for his body; it was a pain more terrifying than being drawn and quartered by five horses, pierced by ten thousand arrows, or even death by a thousand cuts.
His black mist form was shattering inch by inch due to the expanding power, including his body.
Yet he still had to charge forward. In his eyes, there was only the tip of the North Star Spirit-Breaking Spear, and Bai Yue before him! No matter what, this person must die!
The death of a Divinity Transformation stage expert could establish the Li family's status in the Azure Cloud region. His family would also gain the qualification to negotiate with the Wu Clan. Even with the Dynasty—a Li family with only Nascent Soul stage experts might not be taken seriously by the Azure Dynasty, but a Li family with Divinity Transformation stage experts, or even capable of killing Divinity Transformation experts, possessed the bargaining chip to be regarded highly!
From now on, more and more experts will be drawn by their reputation to Azure Cloud region, to be used by the Li family.
Compared to these gains, this pain counted for nothing at all. What he needed to do now was kill Bai Yue before his own body could no longer hold on!
"Stop quickly! I beg you, stop quickly!"
That day, under the torn, blood-red night sky, all the cultivators in the Azure Cloud region heard the pleas for mercy from the Moon God.
Everyone saw the Li family's power dissipating; beneath the red moon, one breath, two breaths...
The torn red night sky was expanding!
Until the cracks spreading through the ice reached their limit, the Primordial Blood Tree reverted to its original form, all the Li clansmen collapsed to the ground from exhaustion, the giant Li Clan Ancestral Spirit Tablet shattered inch by inch and vanished, and the spear and the mysterious black mist figure that had appeared so stunningly briefly in the sky disappeared without a trace.
Vanishing along with them.
Was the aura of Moon God Bai Yue!
The Li clansmen lay on the ground. Looking at the spirit tablets beside them floating up again and flickering with light, smiles appeared on all their faces.
"Ancestor, bless us!"
