Li Qingshan could not help but feel that it was absurd. Was the enemy teaching him swordsmanship?
However, he would not let go of any chance to improve himself. He memorized the swordsmanship that Fu Qingjin had performed Just Now. With a deep hatred in front of him, this kind of small favor was not enough to make him waver.
…
Spring passed and summer came. The weather was hot and humid. Thick dark clouds piled up in the sky, waiting for a heavy rain.
The crows cawed noisily and circled in the sky, unwilling to land. They were like black sesame seeds scattered in the sky.
If someone could observe the trajectories of all the crows and observe them for an hour, they might be able to discover some kind of pattern.
A streak of blood-red light swept across the ground, stirring up a gust of wind. Several crows were torn apart, and their black feathers fell.
However, the pitch-black feathers disappeared before they could land on the ground.
"It's here." Li Qingshan whispered into the communication jade tablet. He stood on a tall mountain, gazing at the black shadow that rose up on the horizon from an extremely distant place.
There was a city there. Now, it was a trap.
He did not go forward quietly. With his early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, he was not qualified to participate in this operation. Of course, this was also a form of protection.
The sky was as dark as dusk. Blood Shadow was already standing in front of the city gate. Suddenly, he felt a sense of uneasiness, as if something was brewing, just like the clouds in the sky.
At the same time, fresh and tempting blood with a fragrant smell was attracting his attention.
A thunderous boom rang out, causing his heart to skip a beat. He thought of the divine thunder summoned by the slovenly Taoist. He smiled disdainfully. With that Ox Nose, even if he encountered it ten or a hundred times, he would still be able to escape safely.
Even ordinary wild beasts could feel the arrival of death. At his level of cultivation, his senses were even more acute. He did not feel any life-threatening danger, so he strode into the city without worry.
A crow perched on top of the city gate. With a strange caw, it flew high into the sky.
"Your divination is really accurate. It seems like you don't have to do anything this time." Li Qingshan smiled brightly and looked back.
Sitting on a bluestone under a large pine tree, he gazed at a small worm on the pine branch, his seaweed-like long hair hanging loosely over his shoulders. She was as quiet as an orchid when she heard Li Qingshan's words. She shook her head gently.
"He won't die here."
"What? Didn't you divine that Blood Shadow would come? "Li Qingshan was very surprised. An inescapable net has already been set up in the city. Even if the Moon Devil were to barge in unknowingly, he would be in grave danger. "
"I only said that he would come, not that he would die." Little Ann smiled mischievously. Only now did she look like a young girl. "On the contrary, I'm certain that he won't die there."
His voice had lost some of the childishness of a child, and was more clear and melodious. It was extremely pleasing to the ear, as if it had a mystical power. It could pass through the eardrums and soothe the heart.
"Is it really that accurate?" Li Qingshan blinked his eyes. Although he didn't know what was going on, he felt that it was very powerful.
"It's really that accurate." Little Ann mimicked Li Qingshan and blinked her eyes. "It's not that accurate every time, because he's tainted with a lot of karma, and he has a very deep karma with me."
"What karma?"
Rumble rumble rumble. A series of thunderclaps descended from the sky, like giant swimming dragons.
"It's begun!" Li Qingshan suddenly turned around and looked at the lonely city on the horizon.
"It's you again!"
Blood Shadow was covered in dirt by the series of thunderclaps and cut a sorry figure. He looked at Zhou Tong in front of him in shock and anger. How did this ox nose always know where he would appear?
"It's not just me this time. Evildoer, prepare to die!" Zhou Tong chuckled coldly, as if he was looking at something that was already in his grasp. He felt great joy in his heart.
This child, An's divination sure is impressive!
Blood Shadow used his usual cautious style. With a flap of his cloak, he took off into the air without saying anything. He moved like a bolt of lightning, slamming into a barrier of light.
In all directions of the city, eight Foundation Establishment cultivators planted eight formation flags. Immediately, the blood shadow was trapped in the formation and they flew into the city together.
"How can they be certain that I'll appear here? Oh no, it's dangerous this time!" Blood Shadow's face paled.
That was because not only had Little Ann calculated the location, but she had even calculated the time extremely accurately, which was why they had mobilized the most powerful lineup in the Clear River prefecture. They had to ensure that they could kill Blood Shadow.
It was not just Zhou Tong. The other cultivators all felt extremely delighted too. Divination practitioners were definitely rare in this day and age, and they could calculate so accurately, which made them even more precious. They all sighed in admiration inside.
"It really is the time. She's absolutely right."
"She really is a genius after all. With the assistance of her divination, the daemons will definitely lose!"
Even elder Xia, who had been dissatisfied with Little Ann's refusal to fight in the past, thought, I have to protect the child well. I can't let the daemons harm him.
With a single thought, the nine cultivators said nothing more. They unleashed their most powerful moves together and charged towards Blood Shadow.
Torrential rain poured down. The sky was pitch-black like night. Six streaks of light tore through the night sky. They were actually six arcane artifacts.
Various techniques to trap and lock down the enemy were unleashed at the same time. Streaks of golden light turned into chains, rattling and trembling as they sealed up the space in a mess. Huge trees rose from the ground, extending their branches and blotting out the sky.
All of this had been planned beforehand. They worked together flawlessly. However, with Blood Shadow's speed, he could escape before the techniques could close in.
One of the nine cultivators, a white-faced cultivator with red lips and white teeth, dressed in a black robe, opened his mouth and said one word to Blood Shadow — — "Freeze!"
His voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears. Even Li Qingshan, who was a hundred miles away, could vaguely hear the word "freeze"!
"This is the famous Freeze Curse. This time, Blood Shadow really can't escape." Li Qingshan laughed.
The Hundred Schools of Thought each had their own unique techniques. Famous Schools of Thought were good at distinguishing between truth and falsehood. They used words to explain the truth of heaven and earth. They inherited the curse techniques of ancient cultivators. They were said to be able to hurt the enemy invisibly.
And among the thousands of curses, the most famous one was probably this Freeze Curse. It was more useful than any other technique to trap the enemy.
In an instant, Blood Shadow couldn't move. He could only watch helplessly as the golden spiritual energy turned into chains and bound him tightly. The huge trees formed a huge cage. Seven or eight spiritual artifacts and arcane artifacts bombarded him together, crushing him to a pulp.
"The blood demon is still alive! Don't stop, everyone!" Liu Changqing called out from above.
Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth — various powerful techniques of the five elements — all greeted Blood Shadow.
In particular, the slovenly daoist priest Zhou Tong pointed the Lightning Slaughter wooden sword at the sky. Thunder rang out endlessly. A thick bolt of lightning that constantly flickered and twisted pierced the surroundings, refusing to settle down even after a very long time.
The Freeze Curse from the leader of the school of Thought came one after another, interrupting every attempt of Blood Shadow's to escape.
The crows that Li Qingshan had conjured from the power of belief flew into the distance and watched from above. They saw everything unfold from various angles. They were secretly shocked.
"An encirclement like this is far too terrifying. Let alone escape, he doesn't even have the opportunity to fight back. As soon as he breaks through the encirclement of a single technique, seven or eight techniques land on him. If it were me, I would probably only be able to prop up the Spirit Turtle's Profound Shell and watch as my daemon qi runs out. No matter how much daemon qi there is, no matter how quickly it recovers, it can't sustain this kind of consumption. "
"Though, casting down a trap like this is easier said than done. Whether it be daemons or cultivators, they all have extremely sharp senses for life-threatening danger. If he can't predict their movements beforehand, even if Blood Shadow faces the nine of them, he can come and go as he pleases, as if there's no one there. What's even more terrifying is the technique of divination. No, I have the spirit turtle's daemon core, so I should be very talented in this aspect. I need to learn more from Little Ann in the future. "
Li Qingshan turned around and asked, "Oh right, what do you mean by karma earlier? Blood Shadow is clearly dead for sure, yet you still said he wouldn't die here. "
"Wait for me here." Little Ann leapt up from the rock and shot off into the distance.
"Where are you going?"
"To kill Blood Shadow." Little Ann smiled.
"But Blood Shadow isn't going in that direction."
Li Qingshan was just about to chase after her, but after some thought, he still stopped. Since Little Ann had made him wait here, she definitely had her reasons.
He was not worried about Little Ann's safety. After reaching the first layer of the Path of White Bone and Great Beauty, the only ones who could pose a life-threatening threat to her were probably the Spider Queen and the "guy" buried deep in the magma. There was no need for him to worry too much.
However, as he watched her vanish into the horizon, he felt a strange sense of melancholy, as if the child had grown up and developed her own ideas. If he still did not increase his strength, he really would not be able to make it. He could not even lose to Little Ann.
It would even surpass the pressure he felt from Fu Qingjin and Dragonsnail.
"Blood demon, today will be the day you die." Seeing how the blood demon was close to death, Zhou Tong laughed aloud.
The head of the Ming family had already uttered the word "freeze" eleven times in a row. He had reached his limit, so he let out a sigh of relief.
Blood Shadow, who had turned into a lump of blood-red flesh, suddenly separated and twisted. A face filled with resentment appeared on its surface.
Innate ability, Bloodlight Divine Escape!
With a bang, the lump of flesh suddenly exploded. The violent power pushed away all the arcane artifacts and techniques. One of the blood-red daemon cores spun and turned into a streak of bloody light with a whoosh.
"Stop him!" Liu Changqing said in a hurry.
Without waiting for him to say anything, Zhou Tong pointed out, and a bolt of lightning shot out like a dragon.
When the streak of bloody light came into contact with the formation, it actually passed through it and streaked across the sky. The lightning struck the screen of light heavily.
Everyone in the city was dumbfounded. Even at this point, the Blood Shadow still managed to escape?
"The blood demon only has a daemon core left. He might already be dead," Liu Changqing said with difficulty.
Everyone was willing to believe this, but no one could believe it! At that moment, it was clear that the blood demon had taken the initiative to abandon his body and escape.
Was the Blood Shadow dead?
Of course not!
The bloody light flew a thousand miles away before it stopped and landed on the ground. Layers of flesh and blood immediately began to grow. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a blood bat that flapped its wings. After a while, it turned into a human. It looked safe and sound, but its face was pale without a trace of blood.
