The severed arm was ripped to shreds by sword qi in the air.
"Y- you … I won't spare you …" Chu Tian clutched his wound and stared at Little Ann in both surprise and fury.
If the arm had only been severed, then it would not be too much of a problem as long as it was reattached and treated in time. However, if it had been destroyed, then it would be troublesome.
Even with daemons' exuberant vitality, it would take quite a lot of effort to regrow a severed arm. To humans with weak vitality, it was even more difficult. Self-healing was basically impossible.
However, before Chu Tian could even say anything, Liu Changqing covered his mouth and bowed. "Liu Changqing greets the Annihilum Light Chan Master."
Before the head monk of the Bodhi courtyard of the Chan Monastery of Deva-Nāga, Chu Tian had declared that he wanted to take revenge on his beloved disciple. Even if the buddhist dharma was about benevolence, there was still the wrath of a guardian deity. If he killed Chu Tian with a single palm strike, he would not even have a place to complain to.
The Annihilum Light Chan Master nodded slightly, and the light in his eyes receded. His expression immediately became blank, which made him seem rather like a master and disciple to the always expressionless Little Ann.
Liu Changqing let out a sigh of relief inside. If he were an elder of the Sword Collection palace, Chu Tian would be a dead man by now. If he were from the Umbral Yin sect, then the outcome would be even worse. Even his soul would probably be trapped.
The other cultivators all went up and bowed as well. This was the most basic form of etiquette towards cultivators at higher realms of cultivation. Surprised gazes swept past Little Ann uncontrollably.
All this time, everyone had treated divination as her greatest power. They did not attach much importance to her personal strength.
After all, Heavenly Meridians prodigies only had value when they were Qi Practitioners. Once they reached Foundation Establishment, they would be in a whole different world. Only after witnessing it today did they understand what it meant to be omnipotent.
Among them, Liu Changqing had personally passed the Palm of the Five Elements to Chu Tian, so he understood the power of this cultivation method the best. Even he could not destroy Chu Tian's protective barrier of the five elements so easily.
Truly, the new had replaced the old. As the world changed, geniuses would always appear. They were like fish in a river. If it were a decade ago, Hwa Seung-zan would already be a startling talent. He was already a rare genius that only appeared once in a hundred years.
Under Little Ann's radiance, even Chu Tian was overshadowed. Coming here to take revenge was just asking to be humiliated.
After Chu Tian reached the Foundation Establishment Stage. Originally, he was in high spirits, but in the end, not only did he lose his arm, he also suffered great humiliation. He couldn't even say a single vicious word, and his heart was filled with bitterness and depression. The Five Elements Spiritual Qi kept churning in his Dantian's Sea of Qi. His face alternated between red and purple.
"Chu Tian, Chu Tian!" Liu Changqing was the first to feel that something was wrong. He called out repeatedly, but Chu Tian did not respond. "Oh no, he's possessed by the devil!"
Cultivating the five elements at the same time, if it was done well, the five elements would reinforce each other. If it was not done well, the five elements would restrain each other. More likely to go wrong. In the past, it was relatively easy for Chu Tian to control the five types of True Qi with his Five Elements Body. However, Spiritual Qi was different from True Qi. After reaching the Foundation Building realm, the advantages of one's physical body would be greatly reduced, and one would have to pay more attention to the cultivation of one's mind.
Chu Tian was originally an impetuous person, and he had just succeeded in building his foundation. He was in a hurry to seek revenge, and he was also seriously injured, so he was angry. The great joys and sorrows of the world came too quickly, and it was not something his temperament could bear.
Chu Tian's eyes were wide open. Although he was not unconscious, his Qi and blood were flowing in reverse all over his body, and he could not move.
Liu Changqing did not dare to use his Spiritual Qi to suppress Chu Tian, afraid that it would cause the Five Elements Spiritual Qi in Chu Tian's body to surge even more.
"Magistrate Liu, leave him to me!" Ru Xin floated forward and waved her hand. A huge green leaf lifted Chu Tian up, and she poked his chest a few times. Then, she returned to the Hundred Schools of Thought.
Everyone looked at him with pity. Being possessed by the devil was a great taboo for cultivators, and its threat was second only to the Heavenly Tribulation.
Once encountered, the cultivator's cultivation would greatly decline, and the worst case would be his death. Even if he could keep his life, this genius was more or less dead.
From the beginning until the end, Little Ann did not even glance at Chu Tian. The effects of the attack were basically within her expectations. Even if the Annihilum Light Chan Master had not interrupted her, she would not have killed Chu Tian before so many people. That would have led to a lot of trouble.
Chu Tian's cultivation deviation was not just because of his impetuous personality.
There were probably few people in the world who knew better than her the value of the fleshly body to a cultivator. Having condensed and reforged her fleshly body countless times, she had an extremely deep understanding of every blood vessel and every meridian in her body.
The human body was like a complete world, with yin, yang, and the five elements within it. The so-called mortal skin of buddhism might not be as tough as daemons, but it contained the soul of a cultivator. Once a certain part lost balance and was damaged, it would lead to a chain reaction.
If a regular person lost an arm, they would only be crippled at most. However, to cultivators, especially Chu Tian who cultivated the five elements, the effects would not stop there. As someone who cultivated seven types of Spiritual Qi, she understood this the best.
However, Chu Tian's loss of balance had happened much faster than she had expected. However, no matter what, he would not become a problem anymore.
There were plenty of knowledgeable cultivators present, but very few of them had thought of this. Even Liu Changqing only thought Little Ann had cut off Chu Tian's arm in a fit of rage.
This was because she had always behaved rather naively, or in other words, inarticulate. She seemed completely clueless about the ways of the world. However, that was only because apart from when she faced Li Qingshan, she basically had no feelings or emotions. Her ability to comprehend and her intelligence that even Oxen praised were completely unleashed without being affected.
Ru Xin drifted away on the green leaf. She glanced back at Little Ann from afar. This child is a little terrifying!
Little Ann dispersed the guardian king's avatar and brought his palms together. He bowed towards the Annihilum Light Chan Master. "Disciple One Will greets master."
The Annihilum Light Chan Master had not come this time without reason. He had been paying attention to the movements of the Clear River prefecture the entire time, and he had gotten Mind Enlightenment to constantly send him information about Little Ann.
As soon as Little Ann reached Foundation Establishment, he was ready to set off.
In the Chan Monastery of Deva-Nāga, Foundation Establishment was only the foundation for formal disciples. Only with this foundation could they comprehend the buddhist dharma to a deeper level. However, reaching Foundation Establishment at such a young age was extremely rare even among the past disciples of the Chan Monastery of Deva-Nāga.
However, the war in the Clear River prefecture was at its most intense at that time. Various people paid attention to it, so it was inappropriate for him to directly fetch her and harm the strength of the human cultivators.
When the battle between Li Qingshan and Fu Qingjin showed signs of coming to an end, he immediately rushed over, just in time to witness this. He watched on silently from the sky, wanting to see just what level his youngest disciple had reached after reaching Foundation Establishment.
In the end, even his heart that had always remained calm rippled. He was rather overjoyed. If it were not for the fact that she was born with a root of wisdom and a natural constitution of buddhism, how could she alter the Guardian King's Scripture of Demon Subdual to such a level? If it were not for the fact that there were no esoteric sects in the Green province, he basically would have suspected her to be the reincarnation of a child spiritual.
Then, the Annihilum Light Chan Master said, "You still haven't answered me. Are you willing to return to the monastery with me?"
"Right now, the chaos in the Clear River prefecture has yet to settle. The daemons are powerful, and it's a critical moment for the Hundred Schools of Thought. I've received the school leaders' great kindness, so I can't leave here for now. Please forgive me, master."
Little Ann was emotionless as she thought about a way to escape so that she could go underground and assist Li Qingshan.
Now that the Annihilum Light Chan Master was present, she would struggle to avoid his attention no matter where she went. Instead, she would bring great trouble to Li Qingshan. If his identity was exposed, he would definitely not be tolerated by the humans and daemons. He would become a traitor that both sides despised.
This time, Li Qingshan had become isolated and helpless. He could only rely on himself. Perhaps this was what he had planned all along.
… …
Li Qingshan sank deep into the web, struggling as hard as he could. Even with his strength that could split open mountains, he was unable to break free from the thin strands of spider silk.
It had been infused with a Daemon Commander's daemon qi. Let alone the life-bound spider silk that Helicoverpa Rosa had weaved with great care, even a piece of rotten wood could become as tough as steel.
Helicoverpa Rosa was completely naked. She strode forward with her slender, straight, and particularly petite feet, following the criss-crossing of the spider silk. The wonderful part between her legs was vaguely visible. Her dark hair draped down from her snow-white shoulders, covering her proud twin peaks. Her face and body still possessed the lingering charm of lovemaking.
Her posture was enough to make most men in the world fly towards her like moths to a flame. Even if they knew they could not escape death, they would still want to get intimate with her.
"Stop struggling. Save some strength. I can still use you a few more times, but I'll have to eat your limbs first."
"Unfortunately, I'm already a little tired of you."
Li Qingshan laughed loudly. The power of the Tremors of the Ox Demon was released from every inch of his body. The spider web began to tremble violently.
Helicoverpa Rosa's expression changed, becoming twisted with anger. It was unknown whether it was because of Li Qingshan's words, or because of his actions, or both.
In that instant, her figure disappeared from where she stood. She lunged at the center of the spider web. Her speed was not so much like the wind or lightning, but more like teleportation.
Her claws rapidly clawed at Li Qingshan's shoulders. If she managed to grab hold of them, it would be impossible for Li Qingshan not to leave his arms behind. Otherwise, he would be caught in a close combat that he could not possibly win against.
However, Li Qingshan seemed to have been prepared. He suddenly broke free from the spider web with his right arm and threw it directly at Helicoverpa Rosa's beautiful face.
Li Qingshan had already begun practising the Spirit Turtle's Method of Sea Suppression, allowing his mind to reach a state of intricacy. In the moment Helicoverpa Rosa vanished, he experienced a wondrous feeling, as if he could predict her next move. It did not originate from precise analysis, but purely from a feeling.
He casually threw a punch. Helicoverpa Rosa's lunge seemed like she was delivering her face to his fist.
Bang!
However, Li Qingshan was unable to get his fist to make intimate contact with her face as he wished.
In that crucial moment, Helicoverpa Rosa used her superior reaction to grab Li Qingshan's fist. A silvery-grey colour spread out, rapidly covering her entire body. It made her seem like a delicate metal sculpture.
The Tremors of the Ox Demon ripped open cracks in her silver palm, but that was all.
"You can only play tricks like that in bed!" Helicoverpa Rosa said coldly and bit towards Li Qingshan's neck.
This time, it was no longer a passionate kiss or intense flirtation. Instead, she wanted to directly inject poison into his body. This was different from the weak poison from the spikes on her leg.
She only needed a single kiss to completely snuff out all of Li Qingshan's ability to resist.
