When he attacked just now, Li Yuanbang felt that Abbot Fa Kong’s strength was insufficient. His injuries were indeed extremely heavy.
After that, the other party did not chase after him, which further confirmed his previous feeling.
Unfortunately, the Grand Reincarnation Plate was not easy to withstand. Even with the Black Demon Cloak and the Buddha Heart Bell, Li Yuanbang was almost killed on the spot.
If he fought again with heavy injuries, perhaps Abbot Fa Kong would not be able to hold on. He, Li Yuanbang, would also die here. It had never been his goal to perish together with the demon monk.
He would retreat first and use the time to heal himself. Then, he would kill the other party and return. His chances of winning were higher.
Although Abbot Fa Kong had also obtained some breathing space, his injuries were too serious. He was hanging on by a breath.
Li Yuanbang was able to catch his breath, but if Abbot Fa Kong’s breath was vented, he wouldn’t be able to pick it up again.
At that time, the safety of both sides would be reversed.
Li Yuanbang guessed that Abbot Fa Kong would most likely be aware of this, so he would most likely not stay where he was and return to Misery’s lair as soon as possible.
As the Crown Prince of Western Qin healed his wounds, he ordered his hidden men to keep an eye on the Misery’s movement. They must not lose Abbot Fa Kong’s whereabouts.
After his injuries stabilized a little, Li Yuanbang prepared to set off to chase after Misery’s group.
But at this moment, his heart suddenly tightened.
Li Yuanbang expressionlessly looked to the other side and saw a tall youth appear. Black Dragon Qi faintly appeared on the other party’s body.
Li Yuanbang had known this person before and was even more familiar with him now.
The former deputy general of the Western Qin Northern Army, the current leader of the rebel army, was cold and silent.
In a short three to two years, his body had undergone earth-shattering changes, whether it was his identity, concept, or cultivation strength.
Beside Leng Ji, there was a dispirited person on the ground. It was the spy that Li Yuanbang had sent to follow the people from Misery.
” As the Crown Prince of a country, you colluded with the successor of the Devil Buddha and turned the people of Great Qin into walking corpses who only knew how to chant the Devil’s Scriptures. You are worse than Li Ce. ” Leng Ji looked at Li Yuanbang.
Li Yuanbang’s expression was calm as he said, ” Every traitor will frame the ruler of a country to fool the people. However, because of your existence, Great Qin is in chaos and the people are displaced. Since we’ve met today, bring it on. I’ll use your head to sacrifice the suffering people of Great Qin. ”
His expression was calm, but he did not act rashly. Instead, he was extremely careful.
Although Leng Ji’s cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, his foundation was still a little weak back then. Li Yuanbang still had a treasure with him despite being heavily injured, so he naturally wasn’t afraid of Leng Ji alone.
However, Leng Ji did not come alone.
Beside him were a few experts from the western paradise. Among them, there was even a peak 18th level Martial Saint.
The old monk put his palms together. ” Your Highness and I have a feud. We can talk about it openly and slowly. We shouldn’t have lured people from the Bitter Sea into Great Qin. ”
Li Yuanbang was expressionless. ” Master, don’t be deceived by others. I’m going to hunt down the demonic monk Fakong of the Misery Sea. Why don’t you come with me? ”
You’re here to block my way and let the demon monk escape. You want to make your loved ones suffer and your enemies happy.”
” You don’t have to worry about that, ” Leng Ji said indifferently. ” Neither you nor the people of the Misery Sea can escape punishment today. I’m going to catch all of you in one fell swoop. ”
Li Yuanbang’s pupils contracted slightly.
However, before he could continue, Leng Ji had already slashed his saber fiercely at his head.
Li Yuanbang also struck out with his saber. The identical Dragon Emperor Heavenly Peak transformed into two black dragons that collided in midair.
As for the buddha experts of the western paradise, they also chanted buddha chants and joined the battle.
Li Yuanbang was besieged by many experts and was unable to hold back his strength.
In order to escape, regardless of whether it was the Buddha’s Palm, the Buddha’s Heart Bell, the Black Demon Cloak, or other treasures, he had used them all.
So you’re not only the Devil Buddha’s successor, but also related to Ye Tianmo. ” The expressions of everyone from the western paradise changed when they saw the Buddha Heart Bell.
Li Yuanbang didn’t answer and just fought with all his might.
After a huge battle, Li Yuanbang was forced to give up the Black Demon Cloak and barely broke out of the encirclement, fleeing.
Leng Ji and the others refused to relax and continued to pursue.
Under Li Yuanbang’s heavy injuries, he gradually became more and more powerless.
At this moment, a group of Western Qin soldiers appeared in front of them.
Li Yuanbang was delighted at first, but his heart immediately sank.
It was the young prince of the West Qin Dynasty, Li Gucheng.
When the two brothers saw each other, they both fell silent.
“Imperial brother, stop.” Li Gucheng spoke first.
“Stop, and then what?” Li Yuanbang shook his head gently. ” You should understand me. If I was willing to be mediocre, I wouldn’t have made the choice I made before. I chose my own path, and I don’t regret it. You can say that I’m useless and that it’s not good if I don’t go smoothly, but I didn’t take the wrong path. ”
After saying that, he waved his hand and the Buddha Heart Bell fell towards Li Gu City.
However, beside Li Gucheng, an old man who was similarly dressed in royal clothing helped him block the attack. It was an old king with extremely high seniority in the Western Qin Empire, with the strength of the eighteenth realm.
Seeing him and some other West Qin warriors standing beside Li Gucheng without saying a word, Li Yuanbang completely lost all hope.
“Dying under your blade is better than dying under a traitor’s blade.” Li Yuanbang ignored his injuries and turned into a black dragon, charging towards Li Gucheng.
The others from West Qin didn’t make a move this time.
Li Gucheng unsheathed his black saber from his waist and turned into a black dragon as well, charging toward his elder brother.
Li Yuanbang was slightly dazed.
In just a few short years, the younger brother who had once been unable to achieve anything in martial arts due to his physical condition had also become extraordinary.
The two dragons crossed each other in the air and collided fiercely.
Behind them, Leng Ji and the Buddhist Sect caught up. Facing the group of Western Qin Imperial Clan experts, the two sides confronted each other.
While everyone was on guard against each other, their attention was focused on the battle between the Li brothers.
In this battle, Li Yuanbang did not use the Tathagata Demon Palm that he had learned from Misery. Instead, he only used the Dragon Emperor Heavenly Spear, the ultimate technique passed down by the royal family, to fight Li Gucheng.
His injuries gradually acted up, and he was finally unable to resist.
In midair, Li Gucheng’s saber struck Li Yuanbang, causing him to fall.
Li Gucheng restrained him, but he didn’t make the last move. Instead, the black dragon-like saber Qi invaded his body and shattered his opponent’s force.
“Are you humiliating me? Are you not even going to give me my last bit of dignity?” Li Yuanbang’s face, which rarely had any emotional fluctuations, finally revealed anger.
“In order to humiliate you, in order to win over the hearts of the people, in order to make my heart feel better…You can think whatever you want. In short, I won’t kill you, and I won’t let anyone else kill you.” Li Gucheng helped his elder brother stop the bleeding.” That’s right. I’ve changed too. I’m no longer the same person as before, but there are some things that I don’t want to change. ”
Li Gucheng nodded at the old prince beside him.
The old prince frowned and fell silent for a moment. In the end, he handed the Buddha Heart Bell to Li Gucheng.
“My royal brother’s cultivation has been crippled, he can no longer do evil.” Li Gucheng clasped his hands towards the people from the western paradise.”I hope that all the masters will be magnanimous. To show your sincerity, we are willing to offer this treasure as an apology.”
Everyone from the Buddhist Sect frowned.
Leng Ji calmly said, ” Li Yuanbang has secretly contributed a lot to the Devil Buddha’s lineage wreaking havoc on Great Qin’s land. Because of him, how many more people of Great Qin have been edified by the Devil Buddha? Because he is your brother, he can save his life. What about the people who have been harmed because of him?”
” After eliminating the Devil Buddha’s remaining evil and bringing order out of chaos, Great Qin will naturally reduce taxes and compensate the people. ” Li Gucheng said.
Leng Ji shook his head. ” It’s your business if you want to protect him. I’ll do what I have to do. ”
“Then let’s do it.” Li Gucheng calmly drew his saber.
A huge battle erupted between the two sides.
Li Yuanbang did not catch up. Misery’s group protected the heavily injured Abbot Fa Kong and quickly returned to Misery.
Along the way, they met the Heart-Giving Demon Monk and other top experts of Misery who had rushed over after hearing the news. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. At this time, even if Li Yuanbang caught up again, they did not have to worry.
However, the group still returned to the Bitter Sea as soon as possible. Abbot Fa Kong’s injuries were too serious, and he needed to use the treasure land of the Boundless Temple to gather spiritual energy to heal his injuries.
However, when they returned to the Boundless Temple, before they could settle down, the formation in the hands of the Boundless Temple was attacked from the outside.
Abbot Fa Kong was seriously injured and could not even control the Great Reincarnation Disk, so the Heart-Giving Demon Monk could only take the lead.
He was one of the top ten Martial Saints and his cultivation was extremely strong. Although he could not unleash the full power of the Great Reincarnation Disk, he had a treasure in hand and the advantage of the formation. He could withstand the attacks of the Martial Honors for a short period of time.
However, the other party’s attack was extremely violent and endless. They were determined to knock open the Boundless Temple.
After a long time, the Heart-Giving Demon Monk finally couldn’t hold on any longer, and the formation was torn open.
Surrounded by raging flames, a crystal-like skeleton in a red robe stepped into the Boundless Temple as if it was bathing in the burning river of time.
It was the Queen of the Wilderness, Qing Kongsang.
The headquarters of the Ancient Gods Clan was guarded by Jiang Yi, a genuine Martial Honor, and he also had the Sky-Stealing Sun-Shifting Technique to facilitate a long battle. Qing Kongsang did not use his full strength to attack. When it came to Misery, he did not need to be polite and took down the Boundless Temple by force.
The Heart-Giving Demon Monk suppressed the blood that was about to reach his mouth and continued to urge the Grand Reincarnation Disk to attack Qing Kongsang.
The crystal skeleton was neither anxious nor impatient. It slowly circled around the Heart-Giving Demon Monk. After exhausting the remaining strength of the monk, it was no longer able to control the Great Reincarnation Disk.
She took the Great Reincarnation Plate, killed the Heart-Giving Demon Monk, and came to Abbot Fa Kong.
“Master, I’m sorry to offend you. Is the Demon Empress here?” The crystal skeleton asked.
Abbot Fa Kong put his palms together.
The raging fire dissipated, the long river disappeared, and the crystal skeleton turned into a peerless beauty again.
“Master, take care.” The Queen of the Wilderness sighed softly and struck the head of Abbot Fa Kong with her palm. The heavily injured demonic giant died immediately.
However, there was no joy on Qing Kongsang’s face. After searching the Wubian Temple carefully, she found nothing. Her expression was unprecedentedly serious.
“There’s nothing here either…” Qing Kongsang muttered to himself.
The factions that Chen Luoyang directly controlled and the bizarre Blood Sea might be his hiding place. As for places that weren’t under his direct control, they might become his blind spots.
Therefore, Qing Kongsang wandered around the Ancient Gods Clan’s headquarters and other places for a few rounds before suddenly attacking Misery.
There was no turning back. Since he had made a move, he had to seize the last and best opportunity.
Otherwise, he would have to face someone even more terrifying than Ye Tian Mo.
However, Misery still did not have one!
Where was that person?
A chill rose from the bottom of Qing Kongsang’s heart. It grew stronger and stronger until it gradually froze his bones.
