Chi la!
Crimson light flashed in the air above the centipede stemborer, followed by a burst of sharp pain as a blurry arm pierced through its head.
The centipede stemborer's eyes were filled with incredulity as its huge body twitched a few times in the air before crashing heavily into the underground river. It struggled for a few moments before losing all signs of life.
The blurry figure in the air flickered and disappeared as if it had never been there in the first place.
The Earth Breaking Dragon, which was running for its life, sensed the commotion behind it. It turned its head around in surprise and blinked its slender eyes a few times. The next moment, it shook its body a few times and flew off into the distance. It looked very comical.
A burst of angry stemborers hissed, and a few more stemborers emerged from the underground river. The leader was a Real Pellet stemborer.
The stemborers let out excited cries upon seeing the corpse of the centipede stemborer floating on the surface of the river. They all pounced on the corpse and devoured it in large bites.
The Jin Dan stemborer then led the other stemborers in hot pursuit of the Earth Breaker Dragon, following the scent of blood.
After the Stemborers left, a figure slowly emerged from the underground river. With a flash of white light, Liu Ming's figure was revealed.
One of his arms was dripping with blood, and after shaking it, the wound immediately turned black. Countless small granulation sprouts rapidly grew within the light, and the arm was as good as new in the blink of an eye.
He looked in the direction of the stemborers and let out a long sigh.
Although the Heaven Evasion Vanishing Shadow Talisman was extremely exquisite and could perfectly hide a person's tracks, it couldn't really make a person invisible and incorporeal. When they encountered an external force, they would still be exposed.
He was already deep in the Stemborer army, and if he wasn't careful, he would be discovered by a high-grade stemborer. He had no other choice but to use this method to kill the centipede stemborer.
Fortunately, the Heavenly Beast blood essence in his body was extremely resilient, so this move didn't harm him too much.
After treating his wounds, Liu Ming dove back into the water and silently swam forward.
After this encounter, he became even more careful on the road ahead.
Within 50 kilometers of the Dawnfall Peak, even though the underground river was still completely silent, Liu Ming could sense that the Borer Race had already set up many hidden sentries here.
Fortunately, the concealment ability of the Vanishing Shadow Talisman was excellent, and Liu Ming himself was cautious. After six to eight hours, he finally arrived at Dawnfall Peak.
More than 100,000 miles west of the Thousands Spirit Mountain Range, there was a huge grey-black mountain. This was where the Sunset Peak was located. There was a vast valley below the mountain. The terrain was very open, and there were mountains on all sides.
In the depths of the valley, a two to three thousand feet wide spatial rift appeared out of thin air, emitting a mirror-like dim light, causing the airflow nearby to become very chaotic.
The quiet valley was now filled with noise. Countless Stemborers of different sizes gathered on the valley plains or climbed up the surrounding hills.
These Stemborers appeared to be very disorderly, but in reality, they were divided into several regions. Most of the stemborers could only gather outside the valley.
Most of the people in the valley were Crystal Level and above Stemborers, and there were a few humanoid stemborers standing on a flat stone platform below the spatial rift.
When the surrounding Stemborers saw these humanoid stemborers, they all wore fearful expressions and didn't dare to get too close.
These Stemborers were exuding extremely dense spiritual pressure, indicating that they were Celestial Phenomenon Stage beings.
...
In a hidden cave at the bottom of the valley, an invisible shadow quietly lurked in and hid behind a boulder near the entrance of the cave.
There was a stemborer of the Crystallization Period later stage in the cave, but this stemborer didn't notice that there was such a shadow not far away.
This shadow was naturally Liu Ming. After coming out of the underground river, he concealed all of his Fa Li and spent a lot of time sneaking into this valley.
There was a dense swarm of Stemborers all around, and Liu Ming didn't dare to release his Divine Sense. He looked around, and his gaze fell on the spatial rift in the valley.
This was the spatial tunnel indicated on the map, and it was very oppressive. Occasionally, a few strands of spiritual pressure would emanate from the spatial tunnel, and he would tremble slightly.
Liu Ming didn't dare to look too long and immediately withdrew his gaze. He gently clenched his right hand, and the azure ring on his finger silently shattered.
On a mountain peak several thousand kilometers away from Dawnfall Peak, there were close to ten thousand Taiqing Gate disciples standing here.
On a platform at the center of the mountain, Daoist Master Sky Ge stood there quietly, looking in the direction of Dawnfall Peak as if he was waiting for something.
Behind him stood Jin Lieyang, a grey-robed elder, and a white-robed nun. These two were also Celestial Phenomenon Stage cultivators.
The four of them didn't speak, and the surrounding Taiqing Gate disciples naturally also remained silent, quietly waiting for orders. However, from time to time, some people cast doubtful eyes on these Celestial Phenomenon Stage cultivators.
Standing at the forefront of the surrounding disciples were the various peak lords of the inner sect, each leading a group of their own disciples.
Yin Jiuling of Dawnfall Peak was also among them, standing not far from the platform where Daoist Master Sky Ge was. Behind him stood 20 to 30 inner sect disciples of Dawnfall Peak, and Xiaowu was also standing next to Yin Jiuling.
Decades had passed, and this woman's appearance hadn't changed much. She still had a somewhat cold expression, but when she occasionally looked in the direction of Dawnfall Peak, there was a hint of worry in her eyes.
"Master, Younger Brother Liu has set off for a long time, and there is still no news from him. Will he be okay?" Xiaowu's lips moved slightly as she asked Yin Jiuling through voice transmission.
"Don't worry, Liu Ming's cultivation has now reached the peak of Jin Dan Intermediate Stage, and I see that the treasure light in his body is faintly hidden. I'm afraid that he has completely sacrificially refined the set of Mountain River Pearl magic weapon. Now his strength is so strong that I'm afraid even I may not be a match for him. In addition, he has the treasure bestowed by Tao Xuan Tong, so he will be fine. "Yin Jiuling smiled slightly and replied through voice transmission.
"That's right, with Younger Brother Liu's wit, even if something happens, it will be fine. I really didn't expect that Younger Brother Liu actually wandered to the Netherworld Realm during these years of disappearance. It is rumored that it is the origin of ghost techniques … If there is a chance, I must let Younger Brother Liu tell me about it. "Xiaowu bit her lips lightly, and a strange look flashed in her eyes.
"When these stemborers are eliminated, Liu Ming will successfully be promoted to an esoteric disciple, but in name, he is still my disciple. Are you afraid that you won't have a chance to see him?" Yin Jiuling glanced at Xiaowu with a spurious smile and said.
"Master, what are you talking about?" Xiaowu's pretty face blushed, and she glanced at Yin Jiuling coquettishly.
"Silly disciple, this is my advice to you. With the aptitude and strength that Liu Ming has shown now, not only the Sky Halberd Sect Leader, but also the Old Ancestor Xuanyu is full of praise. As long as he continues to develop, he will definitely be an influential figure in our Taiqing Gate in the future. Sigh, I now regret very much that I let your Younger Brother Liu and that Calan of Misty Peak make a dual cultivation agreement. "Yin Jiuling took a deep look at Xiaowu and said through voice transmission.
"Master, what are you talking about … I don't have any feelings for Younger Brother Liu …" Xiaowu's face was covered with a thick layer of bright red, and she looked around shyly. Fortunately, the rest of the people's attention was mostly on Dawnfall Peak in the distance, and no one noticed her.
"Xiaowu, you and Liu Ming are fellow disciples of the same sect, and you have spent a lot of time together in the Evil Ghost Path. I believe that he will have feelings for you, so you have to seize this opportunity. Although that Calan is an old acquaintance of Liu Ming, and she is quite beautiful, she is just a Fake Core Stage cultivator. In the current situation, her identity is somewhat unsuitable for Liu Ming. With your current appearance and strength, it is not impossible for you to suppress her. If you miss this opportunity, I'm afraid you will cry in the future. "Yin Jiuling chuckled and said with a slight teasing tone.
Xiaowu's face became redder and redder. She suddenly stomped her feet lightly and walked aside.
Yin Jiuling saw Xiaowu showing such an expression, and a smile appeared on his face. At this moment, a middle-aged man in a gray shirt floated over on a gray cloud. It was Elder Tian of Fallen Serene Peak, whom Yin Jiuling relied on.
"Why, does Xiaowu disagree?" Elder Tian obviously knew very clearly about what Yin Jiuling and Xiaowu said through voice transmission. He glanced at Xiaowu and said.
"A girl is just shy. Although Xiaowu didn't agree, I think she is very willing in her heart." Yin Jiuling said lightly.
"Liu is indeed a dragon among men, but I don't know if he is willing or not." Elder Tian nodded, then he said with some worry.
"It all depends on one's effort. Xiaowu is the first candidate to take over as the master of Fallen Serene Peak. If we can tie Liu Ming to our Fallen Serene Peak, it will naturally be good. If not, we won't force it. With this master-disciple relationship, we don't have to worry that he won't take care of our Fallen Serene Peak in the future. "Yin Jiuling said softly.
Elder Tian nodded secretly after hearing this.
…
Not far away from the people of Fallen Serene Peak, the master of Piaomiao Peak, Esteemed Tian Yin, came here with many disciples. A beautiful girl in a blue shirt was standing behind Esteemed Tian Yin, attracting countless gazes from the surrounding people.
This girl was none other than Calan.
At this moment, a beautiful woman in a white robe flew over and landed next to Esteemed Tian Yin. It was Calan's master, Elder Yu Yinzi of Piaomiao Peak.
Yu Yinzi glanced at Calan, then nodded to Esteemed Tian Yin and said, "Yes, I have already inquired clearly.
"That's right, I have already inquired about it. The disciple sent by the Sky Ge Sect Leader to sneak into the Sunset Peak is Liu Ming."
Calan's body shook slightly when she heard this, and a hint of surprise appeared on her face.
