Emperor of the North Chapter 18

Chapter 18 - Counterattack Assassins

Other than Yuan Feng, no one else in the Innate realm participated. This Yuan Feng was extremely confident, he had made a promise in the Dahua Sect that he would capture you alive and absorb your Yin energy, so he definitely would be able to break through to the Divine Arts realm. Of course, he boasted that Hai Shui did indeed have the ability, but didn't you get injured by him?

When Yuan Feng was mentioned, even fear could be faintly seen from his brows.

"Humph!" So what if I'm plotting against him? In a one on one fight, how could I, Leng Qingcheng, be afraid of him! Oh right, have you informed the sect why the My Snow Spirit Sect had not sent anyone to help us for so long! "

Leng Qingcheng's tone became a bit colder.

"Sigh!" Naturally, I have used secret channels to report back the situation, but you also know, the Chu Country is under the control of the Dahua Sect, and the forces in the vicinity of the Chu Country are also far away, so even if the sect send people to rescue them, they wouldn't be able to do it so quickly! "

Zhao Wuji smiled bitterly.

"So you're saying that this time, the odds are against me?"

Leng Qingcheng's face darkened to the extreme.

"That might not be the case, you are a rare Innate Ice Elemental Body, and to the sect, it means that you have been in this state for hundreds of years. My guess is that the sect might send Innate Elder to rescue you, and you also know that if the Innate Elder were to fly in the air, even if he were to leave from My Snow Spirit Sect, it would not take too long to arrive here."

Zhao Wuji consoled Leng Qingcheng when he saw his embarrassed expression.

"Humph!" It is enough for to last from Xueling Sect to here for four to five days. If not for the fact that the sect has not sent people to rescue them, I think it is because the elders were on their way to meet with mishap! "

"Regardless of which one it is, none of these has any meaning to me anymore. It's a pity that my master is in closed door cultivation. Zhao Wuji, if I, Leng Qingcheng, cannot pass this tribulation, how about you do me a favor?"

Leng Qingcheng sighed as he spoke.

Zhao Wuji said with a face full of sincerity, "Tell me, although you've never been nice to me, but after all, we're from the same sect, so I'll definitely do my best if I can help."

"Good!" This time, if I really fall here, remember to pass the news of my death to my brother. He split up from a young age and followed me to the middle of the continent, to join the Biyun Valley.

Leng Qingcheng said with a gloomy face.

"If I can find out where your brother is, I will definitely bring him to you. Oh, right, I see that little kid with you has already reached the middle Houtian realm, and he is not a disciple of some martial arts family. He should be a disciple from some big sect that has gone out to gain experience."

"That brat is called Li Mu, I am not too sure about his background, but he is definitely not as simple as he looks on the surface. His movement technique reminds me of the legendary unique skill of the buddhist faith, the river crossing step."

When Li Mu was mentioned, his expression eased up by a bit.

"What!?" The ultimate technique of the Buddhist Sect, river crossing step! The river crossing step has already been lost for thousands of years, even my Yuheng Continent's number one Buddhist Sect's Heavenly Treasure Temple was unable to pass on! "

Zhao Wuji was shocked.

Leng Qingcheng said: This is only my guess, his background is suspicious, but he has been treating me pretty well, so if I can survive this time, I can bring him away, you don't need to ask about this, just remember what I told you, quickly leave, so as to not reveal your identity.

Zhao Wuji nodded, then with a flash, he disappeared into the ground. There weren't any large marks left on the ground, making him look like he just disappeared into thin air. It was extremely strange.

"You've practiced the Earth Escape Technique quite well. It's good for you to be a spy. At the very least, you'll have a chance to escape after being discovered!"

Leng Qingcheng muttered, and then he continued to circulate his energy to heal his injuries.

Li Mu was completely unaware of everything that had happened at Leng Qingcheng's location. At this moment, he was carefully looking around in the dense forest.

"This girl Leng Qingcheng, he actually wants me to find something for her to eat. This is so infuriating, she's not my wife, what right do you have to tell me to do this or that?"

Li Mu grumbled as he searched for food.

"Wife? "You really dare think, you will have a good time marrying a wife like this, but when it comes to wives, kid, I sincerely advise you, before you reach the sacred art realm, do not lose your Yuan Yang!"

Muddy sky's voice sounded beside Li Mu's ears.

"Why? If you can't even marry a wife, then what's the point of cultivating?

Li Mu rolled his eyes.

"What do you know? I mean before you reach the Divine Arts realm, when you break through to the Divine Arts realm, if the cultivator Yuan Yang Yuan Yin still exists, taking a Spirit Communication Pill will increase your success rate by 30%, 30%, ah!"

Luan Tian loudly explained.

"Divine abilities?" Sigh, I still do not know how long it will take but since it can increase the probability by 30%, I will remember this in my heart. But, what kind of pill is this Spirit Communication Pill?

The Spirit Communication Pill is extremely precious, and not just anyone knows about it. Even this old man had to search the soul of a grandmaster level alchemist to know about it, so I can teach you how to refine it in the future.

Luan Tian explained.

Li Mu nodded his head. Although he still had a long way to go before he could cultivate to the sacred art realm, he could still make time for it with the assistance of Luan Tian.

Suddenly, Li Mu frowned, without saying a word, he released the river crossing step beneath his feet, which transformed into a ray of light and disappeared.

At the same time, from a huge tree near where Li Mu was originally standing, a long sword suddenly appeared, pointing straight at his chest.

"Who is it!?" How dare you sneak attack me! "

Li Mu's figure appeared not far away, upon seeing the sword that suddenly appeared, his face became extremely gloomy, if not for Luan Tian secretly reminding him, he would have been ambushed.

"Bam!"

The surface of the giant tree exploded open, and a slender figure came out from within the tree. It was a twenty year old lady, wearing a green tight suit with a sharp cold iron sword in hand. She was looking at Li Mu with an expression of surprise.

"To be able to see through my Shadowwood Escape Technique, could it be that your spiritual consciousness is comparable to a Xiantian realm martial artist, and you have already reached the stage where your spiritual consciousness emerges from your body?"

The green-clothed woman asked in confusion.

Li Mu did not answer the other party's question. Instead, he asked a question in reply, "Are you a member of the Dahua Sect?"

"That's right. I heard that you saved Leng Qingcheng, killed three of our fellow sect members, and escaped with your life after being hit by the Lightning Symbol. Is that true?"

The green robed lady was not in a hurry to make a move on Li Mu, but asked with interest.

Li Mu sneered: "Since even you know about it, then it should be true. Do you think you can kill me alone? "Although you have half a foot in the Xiantian realm, in the end you are still at the late Houtian realm!"

"You'll know whether or not I can kill you!"

The green robed lady said as she transformed into a green light, the sword in her hand transformed into green sword images, sweeping towards Li Mu.

"Good job!"

Li Mu saw that his opponent's attack was sharp and did not have the slightest bit of fear, his body suddenly flashed with a layer of black gold light, at the same time, his body released a crackling sound of bones, his two fists went straight in, grabbing towards his opponent's sword shadow.

"You are courting death!"

When the green clothed lady saw that Li Mu actually wanted to use her two hands to catch her sword, she let out a cold laugh. She circulated the True Essence in her body and imbued it into the sword in her hands.

"Clang!"

With a crisp sound of steel clashing, under the green-clothed girl's pale and alarmed eyes, Li Mu used his right hand to firmly grab the sword in his hand.

At the same time, Li Mu's other hand quickly reached out and patted the opponent's head. All of this went from Li Mu catching the sword with one hand, to him slapping the opponent's head with his palm.

"Open for me!"

Seeing Li Mu's palm flying towards his head, the green robed lady who was holding onto the sword roared angrily, and his entire body started spinning extremely quickly.

As the green clothed lady spun, the long sword in her hand twisted into a spiral, and in the end, seemed to have reached its limit, the tip of the sword grinding out intense sparks in the center of Li Mu's palm.

Li Mu's face turned ugly, although the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations had refined his body to the point where it was hard to injure, but when the opponent's sword continued to spin, he felt that his hand was unable to hold on, and could only let go.

As Li Mu let go of his hand, the green-clothed lady leaped and opened a distance of several meters between his and Li Mu.

"How can your body be so strong!?" "That's impossible!"

After losing in her first attack, the green clothed lady was not in a hurry to attack again. Instead, she stared intently at the black gold stream of light that had appeared on Li Mu's body.

"Your sword art is not bad, but it's a pity that you're too weak. With your little cultivation, it's very difficult for you to break through the defense of my body. Are you going to end it yourself or do you want me to send you on your way?"

Li Mu's tone was extremely cold. The enemy's sneak attack almost took his life, so no matter what, he wouldn't let it go.

"Seems like you must have cultivated some kind of powerful body-tempering method, but I don't believe that you have no weaknesses!"

The green clothed lady looked around at Li Mu's body, and then placed her sight on Li Mu's head.

"Watch my sword!"

With a low shout, the green clothed lady transformed into four figures in an instant, and attacked Li Mu from four different directions.

"What kind of sword technique is this? It can even transform into a clone!"

Seeing that the green clothed girl had turned into four figures that attacked him, Li Mu could not help but be startled, and was unable to differentiate between truth and falsehood.

"The one on the right is an entity. The other three are just an illusion!"

Just as Li Mu was in a state of panic, Luan Tian suddenly reminded him.

Hearing that, Li Mu immediately pulled Zhan Qianqiu out from his waist, and at the same time, a burst of True Essence flew out from his body and poured into his body.

"Break for me!"

After doing all of this, Li Mu suddenly roared out, and threw Zhan Qianqiu towards the green clothed lady on the right.

Seeing that Li Mu had actually seen through his true body, the green clothed lady immediately used the sword in his hand to block Zhan Qianqiu, but he never thought that her sword would actually be so easily sliced into two by Zhan Qianqiu.

Zhan Qianqiu who had his sword cut off did not slow down. With a flash of cold light, the green clothed lady's head fell to the ground, blood spewing out from the neck area of the sword and staining the ground red.
