Chapter 28: The Dharma Master's Spirit Infant, Devouring Divinity
Chapter 28: The Dharma Master's Spirit Infant, Devouring Divinity
An intense killing intent, almost tangible, enveloped in the wind and snow, rushed towards them with a chilling howl.
Who... who is this?
Lea Chunlan's face paled, and just as she was about to add some charcoal to the fire, her movements abruptly froze.
In an instant, the entire courtyard was shrouded in a chilling atmosphere, and countless snowflakes in the air exploded.
Li Che stood atop the artificial hill, his eyes beneath the mask cold and indifferent.
"Who?!"
In the courtyard.
The guard sent by the Shi family to protect Lea Chunlan was originally sitting in the snow pavilion, taking a brief rest with his eyes closed.
The moment he sensed the killing intent emanating from Li Che, he immediately opened his eyes, feeling a sense of shock. He never expected someone to dare to commit such an act within the Golden Radiance Pavilion!
Clenching his fists, he swiftly drew the long knife from his waist, and his body shot forward, facing the wind and snow, he saw the towering figure standing on the artificial hill, his body as sturdy as a bear.
The cute bull mask, combined with the overwhelming killing intent, exuded an eerie aura.
"How dare you commit such an act in the Golden Radiance Pavilion! This person is a guest of the Shi family, and you should leave immediately! We won't pursue this any further!"
The guard stood tall, gripping his long knife, his body pulsating with vital energy, the tendons in his body vibrating and emitting a loud rumble. He was a fully realized Tendon Opening guard.
Li Che glanced at the guard indifferently, noticing his Tendon Opening cultivation.
With a light tap of his toes, he descended gracefully, landing on the snow-covered courtyard, each step leaving no trace in the snow, his imposing figure moving with heavy, mountain-like strides.
Li Che took another heavy step, and his face beneath the conical hat suddenly lifted, his cold eyes fixing on the guard with the drawn knife.
The guard's heart skipped a beat, and he opened his mouth to speak, but the raging airflow struck his face harshly! He couldn't utter a single word, and the immense pressure crushed down on him.
Li Che's speed was astonishing, and as his feet touched the ground, the burst of power sent the snow within several yards around him flying into the air! The pressure of his vital energy was overwhelming.
The guard had just drawn his knife when he saw a fist coming straight at him like a lightning-fast strike!
The broad-shouldered, mountain-like bull demon unleashed his inner strength with a punch, like a white tiger in the snow or a venomous snake spitting venom!
Dang!
The crisp sound rang out as the knife was instantly knocked away! The powerful force struck the guard's chest like a whip, causing his heart to feel like it was collapsing, his organs rupturing, and he spat out mouthfuls of blood.
"Bone... Bone Tempering..."
The guard's eyes widened, his face turning pale.
As a guard of the Shi family, he wasn't weak, and even if he faced a true Bone Tempering opponent, he could hold his own for a while...
But he was instantly killed by the Ox Demon before him...
Perfect Bone Tempering!
With a burst of power, the guard's arm trembled, and he was smashed by the terrifying force, his bones shattering, and his body flew backward.
However, Li Che took a step forward, his speed increasing as he caught up with the guard, his fingers hooking and pulling...
The guard's eyes narrowed, and in an instant, the blurry snow mist in front of him was split in two by a sharp force.
The air was torn silently, exploding with sharpness! Blood sprayed onto the snowy ground, and the guard's body was sliced open, falling to the ground, half of his body severed, staring at his own mutilated remains.
His eyes gradually dimmed, losing their luster.
You were just doing your duty as a guard, but since you stood in his way and protected her... then die.
Li Che's body instantly created an afterimage as he stepped on the snow, leaving no trace, and leaped under the eaves.
Everything happened too fast, from Li Che's attack to the guard's defeat and being sliced in half...
It was over in just a few breaths.
Li Che strolled casually, approaching the eaves from a distance.
Lea Chunlan had just turned around, intending to flee inside.
Puff, puff!
Two wooden crossbow bolts whistled through the air, instantly piercing Lea Chunlan's knees, preventing her from escaping, and she fell to the ground, blood pooling and forming a puddle.
"You... ah... you..."
Lea Chunlan's face turned pale, filled with terror.
Although she had joined the Spirit Infants Sect, she was just an ordinary old woman with no cultivation...
The overwhelming pressure of the mountain-like figure, accompanied by the raging airflow, rushed towards her.
Lea Chunlan was crushed under the pressure, her head drenched in sweat, unable to even catch her breath.
"Spare me... please spare my life..."
"I... I'm just an old woman, a bag of bones..."
Lea Chunlan lay on the ground, miserable and pitiful.
Just as he was dreaming of the wonderful life of a divine being, he was suddenly faced with a tragic fate where life and death were out of his control.
Life is full of ups and downs, and this was no exception.
Li Che looked at her indifferently, without a trace of sympathy. When she killed those children, did she ever feel any softness in her heart?
And when she set her sights on Xixi, did she ever show any mercy?
Suddenly.
Lea Chunlan's eyes revealed a hideous expression, and she took out a palm-sized, bloodstained spirit infant woodcarving from her embrace and threw it fiercely at Li Che.
"Dharma Master, protect me!"
The woodcarving flew towards Li Che, but it wasn't particularly fast.
Li Che could have easily dodged it with a simple sidestep.
However, the woodcarving floating in mid-air suddenly seemed to come to life. Its eyes abruptly opened, and it glared furiously at Li Che!
A surge of intense anger suddenly rose in Li Che's heart, like an uncontrollable flame that wanted to engulf his mind and burn away his consciousness!
"Divinity?!"
Li Che was startled.
This woodcarving contained divinity and possessed offensive power!
Good heavens, this Lea Chunlan... within the Spirit Infants Sect, she was actually held in such high regard?
An ordinary woman actually had such means!
Humm—
In his chest, the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit trembled violently.
It was as if a divine dragon roared and a demon elephant trumpeted! The nameless rage that had arisen in his mind was instantly dispelled, and everything returned to calmness.
Li Che's eyes became clear and bright again. Facing the woodcarving, he raised his hand, and his bare arm, exposed to the air, turned a pure white color. A white mist gushed out from his pores.
Primordial Technique...
Immortal Artistry · Thousand Analyzing Hands!
Li Che suddenly grabbed the woodcarving.
Devour Divinity!
Li Che felt a surge of heat in his palm, and the divinity contained within the spirit infant woodcarving was completely absorbed by his arm!
Bang!
The woodcarving exploded, turning into countless pieces of wood dust!
Lea Chunlan stood frozen in her spot...
That was the life-saving treasure given to her by the Dharma Master. She had exchanged countless infant lives for it.
The Dharma Master had said that even a Bone Tempering Warrior... could be dealt with by this woodcarving.
But now, the woodcarving bestowed by the Dharma Master had been crushed to pieces!
Lea Chunlan was in despair.
She wanted to beg for mercy, but Li Che, having regained his senses, feared she had more tricks up her sleeve. He fired three rounds of his sleeve crossbow at her head.
He shot her until she was completely riddled with holes.
There was no time to savor the taste of divinity, and Li Che knew he had to make a quick escape.
The Inner City was different from the Outer City; there were far more powerful individuals, including terrifying experts from noble families who had broken through the Blood Exchange Realm and even reached the Pulse Connectivity Realm.
Of course, the most fearsome were the noble family cultivators who had cultivated divinity.
He took out a crumpled wanted poster from his embrace, one that had long been taken down by the authorities, regarding the capture of Lea Chunlan.
He glanced at Lea Chunlan's pitifully dead body.
Li Che felt a surge of pent-up frustration in his heart, and it finally found some release.
The constant worry he had been feeling finally eased a little.
Although he knew this matter wasn't over, killing Lea Chunlan didn't mean that Xixi was completely safe.
The Spirit Infants Sect, the Spirit Infant Supreme Master...
They were still like a sword hanging over his head, making it hard for him to eat or sleep in peace.
But killing Lea Chunlan at least allowed Li Che to breathe a sigh of relief.
Li Che pinned the wanted poster to Lea Chunlan's corpse with a wooden arrow shot from his sleeve crossbow.
...
...
The white curtain fluttered in the gentle breeze.
Si Mu Bai, who had just cultivated divinity, was in a great mood. He chatted happily with Xu Beihu about divinity, feeling quite content.
Xu Beihu stood up and prepared to take his leave.
Suddenly.
A figure quickly darted into the room and appeared beside Si Mu Bai.
It was one of Si Mu Bai's guardians, a powerful Blood Exchange Realm warrior.
At this moment, the warrior's face was somewhat strange, his brows furrowed with a mix of concern and unease.
Si Mu Bai glanced at him, "What's the matter... Why the rush? Where's your composure?"
The powerful Blood Exchange Realm warrior looked at Si Mu Bai and spoke in a deep voice, "Young Master... Lea Chunlan is dead."
Si Mu Bai held the teacup that had just reached his lips, and suddenly... froze.
