Chapter 379: Stealthily Taking the Spiritual Tree (Seeking Subscription!)
“Such a distinguished disciple of the Yuan Yang Sect, the renowned old demon Qingyang, is this all the strength you have?”
“Are you only capable of fleeing like a rat?”
“Do you dare to stop and fight properly?!”
The Second Elder of the Hua Family scolded angrily.
The power of the talisman was limited and would not last long.
Seeing that the effectiveness of her talisman was about to run out, losing the opportunity to swiftly kill her opponent made her feel somewhat anxious.
“Hehe.”
Liu Yu coldly smiled, showing no intention of responding.
How could he fall for such a simple goading tactic?
Over the past two years, the Qingfeng Team of the Yuan Yang Sect had become quite famous in the Yan State, so it was no surprise that they recognized his identity.
However, for him, fame was merely a tool to achieve his goals; he would never let it burden him!
“Ding, ding!”
During the rapid movements, Liu Yu swiftly gestured with his hands, controlling the Li Xuan Sword, Black Feather Spear, and Kunling Pearl to alternately block the attacks from the yellow small ruler.
Although it seemed perilous, with him secretly using more strength, it was actually quite safe.
The body-guarding flame shield he had developed to this point did not disappoint him either.
Facing the attacks from the jade hairpin magical artifact of the Second Elder of the Hua Family, it was able to withstand them well.
Although after two or three strikes it showed signs of collapsing, with the replenishment of magical power, it barely managed to hold on.
On the surface, he did not dare to directly challenge the power of the talisman and retreated, but in reality, he was secretly moving towards the direction of the Hua Family's third-tier spiritual herb garden.
Liu Yu did not move directly towards the spiritual herb garden; that would be too obvious. Instead, he moved sideways but still overall towards the herb garden.
The other cultivators did not perceive anything wrong either; facing the tremendous power of the talisman, losing was the norm.
If they could resist directly, that would truly be “strange” and something that ordinary foundation establishment cultivators could not achieve.
In the chase and escape, he did not know how long it had been.
A foundation establishment cultivator, with a body refined by spiritual energy, could easily traverse complex terrain; a light leap of four to five zhang was very simple.
Seeing the “Heart Nourishing Pavilion” ahead, Liu Yu’s heart stirred.
According to the intelligence he had gathered beforehand about the Hua Family, he knew that this place was very close to the third-tier spiritual herb garden.
It was almost time to take action!
Thinking of this, Liu Yu suddenly halted, coldly looking back at the pursuing female cultivator.
“Have you finally lost your composure?”
“Famous at a young age, you are still too impetuous.”
The Second Elder of the Hua Family felt her strategy was succeeding and secretly pleased herself.
A smile appeared on her face as she controlled the yellow small ruler talisman to strike fiercely, aiming to take the life of this Yuan Yang Sect thief, and then support the other elders of her family.
For her age of two hundred years, fifty or sixty years old was indeed “young” in a way.
However, the Second Elder of the Hua Family soon could no longer smile.
Because a dark red flame suddenly flared up, accompanied by a sudden surge of powerful momentum!
In that instant of stopping, Liu Yu had already reached into his storage bag to take out the Supreme Spiritual Artifact, Meltfire Blade, pouring all the magical power from his dantian into it.
Spiritual artifact transformation!
A three zhang-sized shadow of a dark red fire python appeared, wrapping around the Meltfire Blade, and charged straight at the yellow small ruler talisman.
“Bang, bang!”
Both carried tremendous power, colliding with a resounding roar.
