Chapter 680: Celestial Sect of Wonders’ Disciple About to Lose?
The Wuyang beasts were only demonic freaks spawned from the evil energy of the Tao Wus, whereas the Qiong Qis were one of the Four Immemorial Fearsome Beasts like the Tao Wus. The difference between the Wuyang beasts and the Qiong Qis was very big.
Furthermore, the intelligence of the Qiong Qis was undoubtedly higher than the Wuyang beasts. Initially, they did not know why Li Xingfei and the rest came in for. As they saw Li Xingfei, Xu Yunsheng and the others capturing some of the Qiong Qis and obtained the golden rings, these Qiong Qis started to react.
Damn it, the Celestial Sect of Wonders had actually used them as training tools for their own disciples. The golden rings that were buried in their bodies previously had to be retrieved by the disciples.
"Let’s see who hunts who first!" The Qiong Qis reacted and started to gather in their packs. These packs moved together.
To increase the difficulty level, Lin Feng prohibited the participants from communicating through the Voice-Projecting Crystal. But he allowed the Qiong Qis to communicate with one another.
Furthermore, the positions of the cultivators when they entered this small world were mixed up randomly, thus as they entered the small world, they were actually surrounded by the Qiong Qis.
Some of the cultivators were ganged up against by the Qiong Qis and received lethal blows. As the protective mechanism of the Dharma Hall was activated, they were eliminated.
Those who were watching all of this started to become very tensed up. They realized that the elimination rate in the second stage was much higher than the first stage for a reason. That was because the second stage was much more difficult than the first stage.
Li Xingfei was now attacked by five Qiong Qis at one shot. She controlled the River Styx Primordial Water. The special characteristic of the River Styx Primordial Water was that it did not fear being stained by the powers of the Qiong Qi. This made Li Xingfei much more relaxed when she dealt with the Qiong Qis, as compared to the others.
But the difficulty was still there. Especially since Li Xingfei still had to be wary of the deep valley at the bottom of the cliff. The ferocious lightning and fire that were spurting from the deep valley was too much even for an Aurous Core Stage cultivator to bear.
Li Xingfei exhibited the Spell of Geography from the Eight Spells of Heavens and Earth. The streaks of River Styx Primordial Water intersected to form webs that protected her. The Qiong Qis were separated from her.
But as the five Qiong Qis summoned their powers together, they surrounded her. She was about to be eliminated.
"It’s a pity that I can’t get all five rings now." Li Xingfei was in danger, but she remained calm. She did not panic but shook her head in pity.
The Qiong Qis were naturally fierce and powerful. To kill them was not easy already, not to even mention capturing them alive.
But Li Xingfei was decisive. She clasped her palms and the Heavenly Extreme Path Sutra she inherited from Wang Lin was unleashed.
The brutal and violent powers of the sutra expanded, seemingly causing an apocalypse.
The River Styx Primordial Water revolved around Li Xingfei and it exploded in all directions suddenly, destroying anything that was blocking in.
Even the Qiong Qis were scared, as if they were facing a huge disaster.
The last spell of the Eight Spells of the Heavens and Earth, Absolute Destruction!
The brutal powers of Li Xingfei spread and caused the mountain cliff beneath her to destruct and convert into powder.
The Qiong Qis were all shocked and they fell towards the deep valley along with Li Xingfei.
"You want us to perish with you, not so easy!" The Qiong Qis flapped their wings and flew up.
Li Xingfei looked at them and smiled, "Perish together? Who wants to perish with you all?"
She kept on conjuring different spells and streaks and streaks of mana flew out. They reached above the Qiong Qis. Before the Qiong Qis could react, the Reversal Spell of the Eight Spells of the Heavens and Earth was unleashed.
The Heavens and Earth was reversed. Initially, the Qiong Qis were on top, but now they were at the bottom. Whereas Li Xingfei was now above the Qiong Qis.
Li Xingfei did not stop moving her hands and summoning her powers. The Spell of Geography was unleashed again and streaks and streaks of the River Styx Primordial Water intersected and converted into a huge web which caught the Qiong Qis. Following that, the more brutal Absolute Destruction spell attacked the Qiong Qis.
The Successive Disciples from the Celestial Sect of wonders were now watching this entire scene from the Dharma Hall. Sun Xueer opened her mouth and shouted, "Good job Senior Li!"
The fellow disciples around her nodded their heads too.
As the last spell of the Eight Spells of the Heavens and Earth, the Absolute Destruction was extremely powerful. It was the last trump card of the disciples of the Celestial Sect of Wonders, but it expended a lot of energy too.
This spell was reincarnated from the "Hong (Vast)" word from the Xuanhuang Four-Word Mantra and the Grand Moon Flash Flood Mantra. It unleashed the entire powers of a cultivator. Generally speaking, the average disciple would be helpless after unleashing this spell. Their powers would be expended.
But Li Xingfei did not just unleash this spell twice. She even included the Reversal Spell and the Spell of Geography in between. This seemed to violate the common knowledge of the Celestial Sect of Wonders’ disciples.
Normally, if the five Qiong Qis combined strength and attacked, the Spell of Geography would be unable to trap them. They would still be able to escape and free themselves of the restraint of the River Styx Primordial Water. But as Li Xingfei unleashed the spells in succession, there were no gaps for the Qiong Qis to escape.
As the frightening powers of the Absolute Destruction came bearing down on them, even if the five Qiong Qis burdened them together, they still had to be careful. They did not have any more strength to deal with the Spell of Geography.
Furthermore, as the lightning and fire spurted out from the deep valley, they also had no choice but to divide their powers to face the different obstacles.
In this way, not only could they not escape, they were even further pushed down by Li Xingfei. They were about to fall into the deep valley.
The Qiong Qis roared furiously, but they could only reveal their desolation.
But at this time, an evil voice rang above Li Xingfei’s head, "Hey, isn’t this the talent from the Celestial Sect of Wonders?"
Li Xingfei’s brows creased and she looked up. She saw a plump youth, who was looking at her with his squinty eyes that flashed across an evil look. He was Yang Likun from the Path of the Heaven-Born of the Samsara Sect.
The fats on his cheeks jiggled, "You destroyed my plan last time, I bet you didn’t expect this scene?"
As he said, Yang Likun laughed and conjured a spell with his palms. The Red Lotus Fire appeared in front of him and descended downwards towards Li Xingfei.
Li Xingfei’s expression changed and she used the Absolute Destruction spell. Even if she was powerful, she had her limits. She could not deal with Yang Likun while settling the Qiong Qis.
As she was out of choice, she could only dodge and avoid Yang Likun’s Red Lotus Fire. While she dared to resist other attacks, Li Xingfei did not dare to resist the Red Lotus Fire. The Red Lotus Fire was brutal. If one was touched by it, his soul would be devoured by the fire.
Li Xingfei’s River Styx Primordial Water was used on suppressing the Qiong Qis and could not be used to protect herself. She could only dodge the Red Lotus Fire for now.
But the Qiong Qis under her were now raging. As they almost fell into the deep valley, they were in extreme pain. They screamed, "The disciples of the Celestial Sect of Wonders deserve to die!"
As they screamed, the Qiong Qis had given up their resistance against the lightning and fire coming from the deep valley. Their entire powers were all focused on attacking Li Xingfei.
Yang Likun was also fierce in his attacks. He clasped his palms and the Red Lotus Fire converted into a sea of fire. Following that, the flames attacked Li Xingfei one by one.
The Reversal Spell of the Eight Spells of the Heavens and Earth was only effective within a certain range. Furthermore, the Red Lotus Fire was raging and covered the space entirely. It was difficult for Li Xingfei even if she wanted to switch her position.
Inside the Dharma Hall and Central Great Pavilion, the disciples of the Celestial Sect of Wonders cursed, "He colluded with the Qiong Qi. How can he be so shameless?"
Li Xingfei took in a deep breath and her expression sank. She stared at Yang Likun coldly.
Yang Likun laughed, "To defeat a Celestial Sect of Wonders’ disciples is a good feeling."
As he said, his expression changed. As he looked down, he saw that Li Xingfei did not bother about the attacks from the Qiong Qis and the lightning and fire spurting out from the deep valley.
As she stared at Yang Likun, she pointed out her right index finger towards him.
"Extreme Finger of Styx!"
A pitch-dark black string came flying towards Yang Likun. As if it was cutting tofu, it tore the sea of fire apart and went straight for Yang Likun.
Yang Likun let out a scream and he quickly shifted his body to one side. He dodged the black string but it was still able to go through his shoulder blade.
"You...you dare...." Yang Likun gritted his teeth while staring at Li Xingfei.
Li Xingfei dealt one more lethal blow at Yang Likun, but she was also struck by the powers of the Qiong Qis. She spat out blood and her face was pale.
The Qiong Qis wanted to tear Li Xingfei apart, but they had no more time. The lightning and fire from the deep valley engulfed them.
The gravely injured Li Xingfei descended downwards and was about to follow in the footsteps of the Qiong Qi. Suddenly, a figure flashed past and exhibited the Grand Escape Spell. He caught hold of Li Xingfei’s body and escaped the deep valley rapidly.
Li Xingfei looked up and saw an indifferent face. It was the face of someone she heard of very long but had never got to interact with.
Zhou Yuncong from the Nirvana World.
Zhou Yuncong placed her down. Li Xingfei coughed and blood was spat out again. Her injuries were too serious.
As he looked at Li Xingfei, Zhou Yuncong turned around suddenly and stared at Yang Likun. His gaze was freezing cold.
Yang Likun was trying to suppress the injury that Li Xingfei caused to him. As he saw Zhou Yuncong looking over, he laughed coldly, "How did your group managed to pass the first stage and reach the second stage? I wonder if you were lucky, or are you actually capable. But that’s not important anymore!"
As he said, Yang Likun pointed a finger to his own brows. As a spiritual light appeared above his head, a huge spiritual talisman floated in space and white light descended, engulfing him.
