CHAPTER 705: A Path to Survival
“It seems that we have still failed.”
“It looks like we have no choice but to take action.”
Liu Yu stood up, brushing aside this thought, and transmitted a message to Tian Xiaoyu.
Then, with a shift of his dantian magical power, he soared into the air.
“Bang!”
In the next moment, his figure vanished from the spot and he crashed through the roof, heading towards Red Bamboo Mountain.
“Boom!”
Almost simultaneously as Liu Yu took flight, there was a great commotion on Red Bamboo Mountain, signaling a duel of magic at the golden core level.
If nothing unexpected occurred, it was Guo Poyun who, seeing that persuasion was futile, began to execute the worst-case scenario.
The two had known each other for many years and had a good synergy; he believed the other would act decisively when the time came.
“Swish, swish!”
With escape light slicing through the sky, Liu Yu could cover the thirty or forty distance in just a breath.
With the vision of a golden core cultivator, he could already see many scenes on Red Bamboo Mountain.
This mountain barely qualified as a third-grade spiritual mountain, but it was certainly the worst type. It was called "Red Bamboo" because it indeed had a multitude of bamboo.
Among them, there was a type of red bamboo, which was naturally extremely hard and made for excellent material for crafting high-grade magical artifacts.
Though the quantity of red bamboo was relatively rare, it was one of the symbols of this mountain, and over time it gained the name Red Bamboo Mountain.
Liu Yu gazed around and saw that there were several vast bamboo groves on the mountain.
As a gentle breeze swept through, many bamboo leaves fluttered down, set against a beautiful sunset, creating a serene and natural scene.
Being in such a sea of bamboo might allow cultivators to forget the disputes of the cultivating immortality world and find temporary peace within.
Thus, in the midst of the bamboo sea, many cultivators from the Feng family chatted and laughed, engaging in various activities.
They had laid down a few meditation cushions on the grass, either closing their eyes to cultivate, lying down to comprehend and read scriptures, or discussing the Dao in small groups.
However, this tranquil beauty was destined not to last long with the arrival of two "uninvited guests."
“Boom!!!”
A loud explosion accompanied by the power fluctuations of the golden core level erupted, causing many Feng family cultivators to be instantly horrified and stop their actions, looking up at the mountain peak in shock.
At this moment, they still did not understand what was happening.
“Swish, swish!”
Entering full power mode, Liu Yu covered the distance of ten miles to Red Bamboo Mountain in just a breath.
With a sweep of his spiritual consciousness, he quickly assessed the battle situation.
Guo Poyun was using his life-bound magical treasure, the Brown-yellow Small Cauldron, along with the earth-yellow flying sword he had sold to him, firmly occupying an absolute position of dominance.
With magical treasures and divine abilities unleashed simultaneously, he showed no mercy, leaving the so-called "ancestor of the Feng family" with no ability to retaliate.
After all, Guo Poyun’s true cultivation level was at the golden core pinnacle, while the so-called ancestor was merely at the Golden Core Early Stage.
Under the powerful assault, after just a few rounds of attacks, the ancestor of the Feng family was already in a precarious situation.
Realizing his current predicament, he wanted to reconsider and plead for mercy, but there was no way back.
“It seems that I don’t need to worry about this Feng family ancestor; with Guo Poyun’s strength, he will soon take him down.”
“Fine, I’ll leave this person for him to handle. After all, he’s just a Golden Core Early Stage cultivator.”
As he swiftly fled, Liu Yu flashed through this thought, but his movements did not stop for even a moment.
At this time, he had already taken out a small banner that was entirely black, with a skull painted on its surface.
