As a matter of fact, Zhuo Zhibo was not even bold enough to try using his flying blade. The range of his artifact was thirty steps. To regular people, that was quite a distance. However, with Li Qingshan's terrifying physique, he only needed to take a step and extend his hand to reach him easily. "Swoosh!"
Zhuo Zhibo had not lost his mind when facing an enemy like that in close combat. He would probably die to Li Qingshan before his flying blade could pierce through the barrier around Li Qingshan. He could not die here. As long as he returned and exposed Li Qingshan's true face, powerful masters of the Hawkwolf Guard would come to deal with him. How could the Hawkwolf Guard allow daemons to mix with them?
As Ge Jian fled out of the cave, he looked back and discovered in fright that Li Qingshan had vanished from where he was. The colossal figure had instantly appeared before him with unbelievable, terrifying speed. Before he could even respond, he felt his body tighten and ache, and he lost consciousness.
Li Qingshan grabbed Ge Jian and casually tossed him towards another Black Wolf guard.
The Black Wolf guard cried out in surprise. The wind whistled past his ears, and he suddenly looked back. All he saw was Ge Jian's bleeding face inches away.
With a bang, the two of them collided into the wall together and turned into a pile of flesh and blood. They slowly slid down and were no longer separated.
Li Qingshan opened his mouth and spat out. The spirit turtle's daemon core shot out, piercing the other fourth layer Black Wolf guard and reducing him to a corpse.
In the blink of an eye, only Zhuo Zhibo and Xie Nande remained. The unstoppable Hawkwolf Guard had basically been wiped out. While all of this seemed to take a long time to describe, it actually happened without the slightest hesitation.
Zhuo Zhibo fled the fastest. He had already arrived at the entrance of the waterfall, while Xie Nande treaded on the water as well. When he reached the end of the waterfall, he suddenly saw the daemon core turn around in the air and fly towards him. He cried out, "Save me, commander!"
Zhuo Zhibo would never stop. Xie Nande bellowed out and unleashed his full strength. The true qi he had cultivated for all these years surged towards the incoming daemon core like the tide.
However, before an absolute difference in strength, any resistance was pointless. The daemon core only paused slightly before suddenly accelerating, piercing Xie Nande's head and leaving behind a tiny hole. Holy Church
Whether it was a fifth layer Qi Practitioner or a fourth layer Qi Practitioner, it was no different from killing a regular person to Li Qingshan.
Zhuo Zhibo didn't care about what was happening behind him and rushed straight to the entrance of the cave. Although the cave wasn't small, it couldn't accommodate Li Qingshan's huge body. As long as he entered it, he would be able to escape.
Suddenly, he was alarmed. He forcefully twisted his body in mid-air. A white prayer bead flew out of the waterfall and brushed past him. With lightning speed, it brushed past his chest and tore off a piece of flesh.
"You are!" Zhuo Zhibo saw the child that Li Qingshan always brought with him, blocking the entrance of the cave with an expressionless face, standing on the silent flames. Although he did not release any aura, the sense of danger he exuded was not inferior to Li Qingshan's.
Moreover, he could control an artifact. This child was actually an expert above the sixth layer, but how could he be so young? Zhuo Zhibo was left dumbfounded.
Li Qingshan called back the daemon core. Just as he was about to fall down, he used his daemon qi with a thought, and a pillar of water rose up from the underground lake. It lifted up Li Qingshan and went straight for Zhuo Zhibo.
There was a wolf ahead and a tiger behind, and each one was more terrifying than the last.
Within the suffocating killing intent, Zhuo Zhibo's heart almost stopped beating. At that moment, he was filled with regret. He did not have any irresolvable conflicts with Li Qingshan. If he had ignored Li Qingshan in the beginning, he would still be the authoritative Black Hawk commander of Jiaping city. He would have all the women he wanted, and he would never end up like this.
However, it was already too late for regret. In this moment of life and death, Zhuo Zhibo's eyes reddened. He raised his right hand, and a flying dagger shot towards Little Ann. If she was willing to move aside, then so be it. If she was unwilling, then he would drag her down with him even if he had to die with her.
As expected, Little Ann did not move aside. Forming a seal with her hand, the Skull Prayer Beads also flew towards Zhuo Zhibo. (《》)
Li Qingshan called out, "Little Ann!" He watched helplessly as the flying dagger pierced Little Ann's chest.
At the same time, the Skull Prayer Beads struck Zhuo Zhibo's body, but they were blocked by a layer of protective true Qi. They failed to pierce through Zhuo Zhibo in a single stroke, but they still sent him flying towards the waterfall.
Li Qingshan's huge tiger claw carried a strong gust of wind as it clawed towards Zhuo Zhibo. Zhuo Zhibo's body lost balance, and his true Qi was injured, so how could he avoid this claw? Li Qingshan immediately used all his strength, and with his unparalleled divine strength and enormous demonic aura, he crushed the layer of protective true Qi on Zhuo Zhibo's body. Then, he did not stop. With the sound of bones breaking, Zhuo Zhibo violently spat out a mouthful of blood. Most of the bones in his body were broken, and he could no longer use any tricks.
Li Qingshan rushed in front of Little Ann. "Are you alright?!"
Zhuo Zhibo knew that he was going to die after being held in Li Qingshan's palm. He spat out a mouthful of blood and laughed wildly. "He was hit by my Spiritual Flame Saber. He's definitely going to die."
Little Ann shook her head, indicating that she was fine.
Li Qingshan was still worried. As if he was picking up a doll, he picked up the little girl in his palm and examined her. Her skin was as smooth as jade, and she was completely unharmed. There was only a small hole in her clothes.
"How … How is this possible?" Zhuo Zhibo's eyes widened in disbelief. Even if he was a qi-trainer, he would definitely die if his vital organs, such as his heart and head, were pierced.
The outer layer of Little Ann's flesh and blood, including her vital organs and heart, were all condensed. It was the appearance of her skin. Her real body was a skeleton. Even if her physical body was completely destroyed, she was still alive and kicking.
Something like the heart could be repaired after being pierced. It wouldn't take much effort for her to do so. That was why Xiao An didn't dodge. Instead, she took Zhuo Zhibo's attack head-on.
Zhuo Zhibo suffered a great loss because of the information asymmetry. If he had not been so cruel, he might have been able to jump between the gaps of Li Qingshan's fingers for a while.
Li Qingshan raised Zhuo Zhibo in front of his eyes. "You are much weaker than I thought."
Zhuo Zhibo said, "Don't kill me. I can give you great benefits …" At the same time, he focused all his attention on the Spirit Flame Saber, looking for an opportunity to give Li Qingshan a fatal blow.
"Keep it for yourself!" Li Qingshan tightened his grip. He did not listen to Zhuo Zhibo's nonsense and crushed him to death. The best way not to be bewitched by the enemy was to not give them a chance to speak.
The Spirit Flame Saber fell into the water silently.
Zhuo Zhibo had seen Li Qingshan's true form, so Li Qingshan would never allow him to continue living in this world. Right now, the only benefits he needed were pills, large quantities of pills. As long as his cultivation increased, there would be benefits everywhere. The Soaring Dragon Elder's sumeru ring was in his possession. Even if Zhuo Zhibo took out all of his wealth, it probably would not be as valuable as a single item in there.
Li Qingshan found a hundred treasures pouch from the bloody mess. He called out, "Little Ann, clear the area!"
Flames immediately surged over and took away Zhuo Zhibo's corpse. They did not even leave behind a single droplet of blood. Afterwards, they dispersed and devoured the corpses of all the Black Wolf guards, reducing them to the purest energy.
Whether it was their bones or flesh, the quality of Qi Practitioners far surpassed that of regular people. They were rare delicacies. The colour of the Skull Prayer Beads became even purer.
Afterwards, he returned with seven hundred treasures pouches and seven low grade spiritual artifacts. Li Qingshan picked up the Spirit Flame Saber that had fallen into the water. It was a true mid grade spiritual artifact, so it went without saying that it was worth quite a lot. However, before he could even check it, he suddenly sensed something. Someone's coming!
Little Ann nodded, expressing that he had sensed it too. Although the person concealed his aura as much as possible, slivers of it still leaked out, unable to fool the senses of the two of them. The person was actually a sixth layer Qi Practitioner.
Li Qingshan said to Little Ann, "Let's hide and see who it is!" He used the Spirit Turtle's Method of Sea Suppression, and the spirit turtle's daemon core sank into his dantian. He turned back to normal, concealing all of his aura, and dove into the depths of the pitch-black lake with Little Ann.
Before long, a figure arrived at the entrance of the cave. He scanned the cavern silently like a cat. The dark underground greatly affected his vision, so he could not see into the water at all.
However, Li Qingshan saw him clearly. The person also wore a black uniform of the Hawkwolf Guard, but the patterns on his clothes were different from regular Black Wolf guards. Li Qingshan immediately realised that this person was the Black Wolf commander he had never met before. He had no idea how he had ended up here.
The newcomer was Lao Xishan. He had followed Zhuo Zhibo all the way here, waiting for a chance to take revenge. However, when he followed Zhuo Zhibo to the first fork, he almost couldn't tell which direction Zhuo Zhibo had gone. Only by relying on his sense of quantity did he choose the correct direction. He had only just reached the sixth layer, so he was still rather unable to control his true qi. As a result, Li Qingshan discovered him easily.
Lao Xishan widened his eyes and patrolled the cavern extremely carefully. The daemon qi he had sensed earlier was no joke. If he really did run into such a powerful daemon, it would be extremely dangerous. The auras of the Qi Practitioners earlier vanished one by one. As it seemed, they were probably done for. He did not want to follow in their footsteps.
However, after sensing for quite a while, he found nothing in the end. The daemon qi seemed to have vanished into thin air. The Spirit Turtle's Method of Sea Suppression was so effective that even a ninth layer Qi Practitioner like Grandma Ximen could not sense it, let alone a sixth layer Qi Practitioner like him who had just grasped the basics.
Don't tell me Zhuo Zhibo is dead! Lao Xishan thought of this, but his emotions were very complicated. He was happy, but also regretful. He had endured hardships for several years, and just as he was about to take revenge on his old enemy, his old enemy had died in the hands of some inexplicable demon. However, he was still more happy at the end of the day. He also decided not to take any risks, silently retreating along the same path he had come from.
Li Qingshan and Little Ann burst out of the water and sat on the beach to rest. Let's see what we've found!
Suddenly, he thought, I wonder how Hao Pingyang and the others are doing. I wonder if they've found the Zombie Daoist's dwelling. Hopefully, they're fine!
Fresh blood continuously flowed from Jin Bao's body. He died with his eyes wide open and fear of death was frozen on his face. However, he was unable to stop the arrival of death. From his chest to his lower abdomen, his abdomen was cut open with a heavy technique. He died an extremely tragic death.
