Nine Evolutions of the True Spirit Chapter 237

Enlightened Master Jin Li had not been having a good life for the past two years!

Lu Ping's escape using the teleportation formation had made him a laughing stock in front of the other monster Enlightened Masters in the monster tide.

Enlightened Master Jin Li was embarrassed and enraged, such that he also activated the teleportation formation to chase after Lu Ping.

But he hadn't expected that Lu Ping would destroy the teleportation formation, disrupting the teleportation. As a result, Enlightened Master Jin was severely wounded and was forced to hide in an underwater cave to recover from his injuries.

A few months ago, Enlightened Master Jin Li fully recovered and left the underwater cave. However, before he could find out where he was, he was met with a group of Blood Condensation Realm human cultivators.

Enlightened Master Jin Li was naturally in a bad mood with everything that had happened, so the human cultivators became unlucky targets for him to vent his anger on. In a few strikes, he killed the human cultivators, but this brought another round of trouble.

The human cultivators were from a clan under Crystal Palace, with one of them being that clan's inheritor. Hence, after learning about their deaths, the clan's two Enlightened Masters ventured out to avenge their disciples' death.

Enlightened Master Jin Li was only in the Second Layer Core Forging Realm, so he was not a match for the two Enlightened Masters.

However, he was still a talented monster cultivator and managed to fight his way out. But, these events exposed his identity as a monster cultivator.

Then, the real fun began!

Although the Fallen Rift was jointly occupied by both races, the boundary between humans and monsters was clear. No one would overstep into each other's territory!

Yet, right now, there was actually a monster Enlightened Master that had come to the human's territory and even killed a group of human cultivators?

This was outrageous, and definitely not acceptable!

From that point onwards, Enlightened Master Jin Li had been fleeing from one place to another like a street rat, hiding and running from countless pursuits.

Enlightened Master Jin Li wasn't weak, and his ability to escape was excellent.

On top of that, the human Enlightened Masters didn't know Enlightened Master Jin Li's background, so they didn't want to kill him in case he was someone important in the monster race, as doing so would provoke the monster race to react aggressively.

Hence, the human Enlightened Masters only chased him away from their respective territories instead of truly going after him. This was also why Enlightened Master Jin Li was still able to flee from place to place.

The Three Clans Alliance also noticed the unfortunate monster Enlightened Master's arrival in their territory. However, their Enlightened Masters were handling other important tasks, so they didn't have the manpower or time to chase Enlightened Master Jin Li away.

Left with no other options, the Three Clans Alliance asked help from the Three Clans City. Coincidentally, Wang Clan's Enlightened Master Wang Hua was out at sea investigating the death of his profligate son, making no progress.

Since he was already at sea, Enlightened Master Wang Hua felt he might as well also answer the request.

In his view, as Enlightened Master Jin Li was only in the Second Layer Core Forging Realm, while he was already at the peak of Third Layer Core Forging Realm, he could handle Enlightened Master Jin Li easily.

Therefore, Enlightened Master Jin Li was only an insignificant task; Enlightened Master Wang Hua was primarily here for another purpose.

But he hadn't expected that Enlightened Master Jin Li was far more difficult to handle than he had been told.

After the confident Enlightened Master Wang Hua confronted Enlightened Master Jin Li, they fought. However, it ended up with him being defeated and forced to flee for his life.

Enlightened Master Wang Hua finally realized that he had been deceived by others. It wasn't that the other Enlightened Masters didn't want to kill Enlightened Master Jin Li because of his unknown background, the truth was they couldn't kill him even if they wanted to!

Enlightened Master Wang Hua cursed the other Enlightened Masters for their hypocrisy, and fled to the island to meet his nephews and the Crystal Palace cultivators.

Since the Wang Clan had decided to join the Crystal Palace, the clan wanted to establish good relationships with the higher-ups in the organization. For example, Master Alchemist Enlightened Master Kun Shan, the teacher of that young and talented alchemist.

Otherwise, why would Enlightened Master Wang Hua reveal the location of the Hundred Flowers Land to the Crystal Palace cultivators and tell Wang Yi-Shan to bring them here?

Enlightened Master Wang Hua also knew that Master Alchemist Kun Shan had personally come to the Fallen Rift to lead the operation planned by their two powers.

If Enlightened Master Kun Shan worked with him, they could surely kill Enlightened Master Jin Li. So, he was not in a hurry, and planned to help the juniors complete their goal first.

Little did Enlightened Master Wang Hua know that Enlightened Master Jin Li was closely following behind him.

Enlightened Master Jin Li had been busy running for his life, so he didn't have time to learn exactly what this place was. Since Enlightened Master Wang Hua was the weakest target he had come across, he naturally wouldn't let him go so easily.

Enlightened Master Jin Li was a sea monster, so he was naturally good at traveling underwater. This was also how he was able to escape the pursuit from other human Enlightened Masters.

When Enlightened Master Wang Hua was caught up and stopped by Enlightened Master Jin Li, he shouted furiously, "Jin Li, don't you dare force me! This is the human's territory!"

Enlightened Master Wang Hua's shout was intended to notify the junior cultivators to hide well and not get caught in the battle between the two of them.

This way, the five cultivators and Lu Ping became aware of the situation. Lu Ping suddenly became anxious and didn't have the intention of hiding anymore.

No matter who won the battle, both of them were enemies to him. So, staying behind would only result in death. He had to leave now in order to live!

The best time to escape was now, when the Enlightened Masters were focused on each other. It was his only chance at survival.

Outside of the island, the Enlightened Masters started fighting above the sea. The ear-piercing sounds and explosions scared the cultivators into retreating. They feared that the aftermath of the battle would hit them.

On the other hand, not only did Lu Ping not retreat, he pressed forward and attacked the five cultivators. He cast the [Disarrayed Rocks Puncturing Sword Art] and attacked without holding back!

At the same time, Lu Ping put up Umbra and his aegis energy as he planned to fight for a way out!

Wang Yi-Shan and the others cursed Lu Ping in their hearts as all they wanted was to find a safe place to hide. They didn't want to be tangled up in a battle, so they hurriedly moved to the sides.

The undulating spiritual energy from the battle would definitely attract the Enlightened Masters' attention, which was not what they wanted to see happen.

They watched as Lu Ping rushed out and thought, If you want to die, don't bring us down with you!

Lu Ping rushed into the hidden path and moved out. He only wished that the [Spirit Hiding Art] and Mirage Robe could hide his presence so Enlightened Master Jin Li wouldn't notice him.

After exiting the hidden path and coming to the stony slope, the battle between the Enlightened Masters had reached a climax.

Their auras filled the island and the aftermath of their attacks destroyed the forest on the island.

Lu Ping quickly lifted the two boulders and kept them in his interspatial ring. Then, he turned around and fled without hesitation.

Suddenly, two divine revelations quickly caught up to Lu Ping.

"Well, well, well… I've been looking for you everywhere. Who would've thought you would just deliver yourself to me!"

One of the divine revelations contained a voice message that only Lu Ping could hear. It was none other than Enlightened Master Jin Li's voice, making Lu Ping's heart thump rapidly.

This is bad!

A magnificent sword light flew out, heading towards Lu Ping. It contained a tyrannical fury that desperately needed to be vented!
