Chapter 1406: Wounding Wuji Gui

The passing self-cultivators all regretted their choices to come witness the fight.

They had stayed to watch Qingfeng Li fight Wuji Gui for entertainment, but they never imagined that they would be affected by the residual energy waves of the fight. The powerful surge of energy sent their bodies flying, dropping them heavily onto the ground, their bodies covered with dirt.

Fortunately, these self-cultivators were all extremely powerful. If they weren't, they would've been ripped apart by the massive energy.

Seeing that his skull failed to defeat Qingfeng Li, Wuji Gui roared and unleashed the second blade technique of the Skull Blade. Suddenly, two skulls emerged, smashing towards Qingfeng Li from two directions, sandwiching his body.

Qingfeng Li was of course, completely unfazed, unleashing the second skill of the Fire Emperor Sword Technique. Suddenly, the sword's red flaming sword energy formed into a giant river, washing away the two black skulls as if it were waves of magma sent from heaven.

Wuji Gui wasn't about to give up so easily. He immediately unleashed the third and fourth blade technique of the Skull Blade, sending out attacks toward Qingfeng Li. Unfortunately, Qingfeng Li was much too strong for Wuji Gui's attacks.

At the same that he was battling Wuji Gui, Qingfeng Li was practicing his sword technique as well.

The Fire Emperor Sword Technique had four swords in total. They were the Fire Mountain, the Fire River, the Fire Elephant, and the Fire Lion.

Qingfeng Li had already mastered three out of the four techniques, leaving only the fourth technique, the Fire Lion, to be mastered.

As they battled, Qingfeng Li practiced the fourth technique, going through it in his mind and attempting to form his fire sword energy into a lion.

Lions were known as the king of all beasts and the king of forests. Like tigers, they were rulers of the jungle.

Shortly afterward, Qingfeng Li managed to master the fourth technique of the Fire Emperor Sword Technique. With a wave of his sword, he was now able to form a lion. He had learned the beginning stages of the fourth sword technique.

Qingfeng Li continued his efforts to create a fire lion. Slowly, he began to shape the fire sword energy into a neck, a torso, limbs, a tail, and finally a complete lion.

The Fire Lion opened its mouth and spewed out a fireball, shooting it towards Wuji Gui's Skull Blade, incinerating it into nothingness.

The Fire Emperor Sword Technique's fourth sword, the Fire Lion, was clearly superior to the other three sword techniques.

"Fire Lion!" With a loud roar, Qingfeng Li directly unleashed the fourth sword of the Fire Emperor Sword Technique. At the same time, he activated the fire sword intent within his body, unleashing a massive wave of energy.

Suddenly, countless fire lions were surrounding Qingfeng Li. The rocks, bushes, trees, mountains, and even air all transformed into fire lions, amounting to hundreds and laying siege on Wuji Gui.

The hundreds of fire lions all charged toward Wuji Gui, wanting to rip him into pieces.

Wuji Gui panicked as his eyes froze. With a wave of his hand, the Skull Blade conjured hundreds of skulls.

Every skull dazzled with black Sky Dao Talisman scripts, working to fend off the fire lions. But the fire lions were too hot and too powerful; the skulls were helpless against them.

Papapapapa...

Shortly after, the few hundreds of vital essence skulls that had appeared were all incinerated into nothingness, disappearing into thin air.

Finally, the hundreds of fire lions all integrated into a single massive one. With an enormous amount of fire sword intent, the fire lion smashed into Wuji Gui's body ferociously, tearing apart his clothes, sending him flying.

Puh!

Wuji Gui spewed out a huge gush of blood, his face colorless and his body injured.

At the sight of this, the disciples of the Ghost-Emperor Sect all panicked, their eyes full of shock.

"How is this possible? Wuji Gui is the number one master of our Ghost-Emperor Sect's younger generation. How could he lose to Qingfeng Li?"

"Yeah! The young sect master is invincible across the entire self-cultivation world. He's one of the best fighters within the younger generation. How could he have lost?"

"If our young sect master loses, what do we do? Do we stay or run?"

The disciples of the Ghost-Emperor Sect all panicked as they erupted into chatter.

At the sound of their voices, Wuji Gui was livid. Useless! Not only are they not helping me, they're even thinking about running away?!

Wuji Gui was enraged. He turned and yelled towards his disciples, "Everyone attack! Kill Qingfeng Li for me."

Although they were afraid, the disciples of the Ghost-Emperor Sect came charging at Qingfeng Li with their fists, blades, and swords at the sound of Wuji Gui's command.

They were disciples of the Ghost-Emperor Sect. If they didn't listen to Wuji Gui, they would've been killed even if they made it back alive.

Qingfeng Li had just learned the fourth skill of the Fire Emperor Sword Technique. It truly was formidable. With the strike of the long sword, the sword energy formed a giant fire lion, incinerating the dozens of disciples instantly and reducing them to ashes.

"Essence blood Incineration. Escape!" While the dozens of disciples attacked Qingfeng Li, Wuji Gui burned his essence blood, transforming into a ray of black lightning and disappearing instantly.

"Wuji Gui, you sure are fast. I'll be sure to kill you the next time we meet." At the sight of Wuji Gui escaping, Qingfeng Li looked deadly as could be.

This time, the young sect master of the Ghost-Emperor Sect, Wuji Gui left completely empty-handed. He brought with him his girlfriend and his disciples to steal the giant centipede's demonic pill. But to his dismay, he lost everyone that he brought, failed to obtain the demonic pill, and left heavily injured.

Qingfeng Li turned and walked towards Black Puppy. "Little dog, hurry up and refine the demonic pill to elevate your abilities. Then lead us to the Chief Badge."

Black Puppy walked to the side and sat down cross-legged as if it were a human self-cultivator. With its two front paws set in front,

Black Puppy channeled a canine-type cultivation chant. Reaching out one of its paws, Black Puppy directly placed the demonic pill into its mouth.

The demonic pill entered Black Puppy's mouth, traveling along its throat, esophagus, stomach tracks, and finally into its Dantian.

Black Puppy's veins carried a black energy. The black energy formed into many small black vortices, with each holding an incredible amount of torque, shredding the demonic pill and absorbing its powers.

The demonic pill contained a massive amount of Demonic Vitality. After it was absorbed by the many black vortices, it transformed into rays of black energy, entering the depth of Black Puppy's body, churning in it endlessly, ultimately gathering in its Dantian, and forming its demonic nucleus.

Shortly afterward, Black Puppy opened its eyes. From them, two black rays of light shot through, destroying the rocks in front into nothingness.

Powerful energy exuded from Black Puppy's body, shooting straight for the heavens.
