Chapter 100: Chapter 83: Annihilate Completely! Leave No Troubles Behind!_2
A cultivator, having just narrowly escaped from the jaws of the Half-Copper Armor Corpse, said with a face still unsettled with terror.
At that point, the crowd began to react, realizing that this person’s reputation was already well-known in the vicinity, infamous and far-reaching!
However, his formidable power was unanimously acknowledged by everyone.
Zhuang Guxue, standing to the side, looked at Lu Li with a strange expression. She had also happened to hear other cultivators talk about the zombie incident, the story growing more outrageous with each retelling.
Rumors said that a mysterious man had spent decades planning and raising a Half-Copper Armor Corpse to slaughter incoming cultivators, spreading extremely evil stories about him.
Now, seeing that it was actually an old acquaintance behind it, she didn’t believe it and suspected there must be a hidden story.
...
While everyone had their own thoughts, the Flying Sword suddenly plummeted down.
“Boom…”
The Flying Sword slashed violently onto the Spiritual Energy Shield, causing the shield to start shaking crazily, with the light around it flickering on and off.
“This is bad! The Spirit Talisman can’t hold up! Could this person be even stronger than Jiang Taixu?”
Zhao Wuji couldn’t believe his eyes.
Faced with the threat of death, he dared not dwell on it. He slapped his Spiritual Beast Bag and a huge spirit beast appeared on the ground.
It was an unusual type of Spiritual Tiger, with a cultivation level also at the peak of Qi Refinement.
The beast was several measures tall, with eyes as large as copper bells, filled with murderous intent, staring intently at Lu Li in front.
“Roar…”
With a furious roar, the Spiritual Tiger charged toward Lu Li with a formidable aura.
With the help of the spirit beast, Zhao Wuji regained a sliver of confidence.
The shadow of death in his heart lightened somewhat.
But what happened next was completely unexpected.
Lu Li’s expression was very calm. He patted his Spiritual Beast Bag, and a snow-white giant python appeared on the ground.
Its scales were extremely fine, its head slightly flat, and there were four small bulges on its body, emitting a noble aura.
Its entrance attracted the attention of everyone present.
Years had passed, and Iron Pillar’s appearance had changed greatly. Now, he could let it out without fear of other cultivators recognizing it, as there were countless pythons used as spirit beasts in the surrounding seas of the Falling Dragon Sea.
“Is this… a Dragon Seed about to undergo transformation?”
The cultivators at the entrance of the passageway looked at the snow-white giant python with faces full of shock; its body clearly different from other Demon Beasts, exuding an aura of mystery.
“It seems another fierce battle between the dragon and the tiger is about to unfold.”
Zhuang Guxue, seeing the Spiritual Python suddenly appear, was also greatly surprised, not expecting her life-saving benefactor to have so many tricks up his sleeve.
Opposite her, Zhao Wuji was completely dumbstruck, a chill rising in his heart.
Even the Spiritual Tiger that had just charged out stopped abruptly, a trace of fear in its eyes.
“Roar roar roar…”
Iron Pillar let out a roar, quickly charging toward the Spiritual Tiger in front.
When he reached his opponent, he swung his tail, empowered by the demonic power within him, smashing it down on the Spiritual Tiger like a mountain crashing down.
The Spiritual Tiger stretched out its huge paw, striking fiercely at the body of the python, bringing forth a whooshing sound, its momentum quite extraordinary.
“Boom…”
A loud collision resounded through the skies, and the Spiritual Tiger was forced to retreat, its expression showing traces of pain.
On the ground, several huge marks appeared as if it had been plowed, the surroundings a complete mess.
Zhao Wuji looked on in fear; his Spiritual Tiger was no match for this giant python. He had spent many Spirit Stones to elevate the tiger to this level, and it was faltering after just one strike, which he found hard to believe.
The cultivators at the entrance were also startled; the expected clash between the dragon and the tiger had not occurred. Instead, the victor was determined by a single strike.
“This unusual giant python is so powerful! It must be about to face the Dragon Transformation Heavenly Tribulation.”
The hearts of everyone were immensely shocked.
It was known that in the seas surrounding the Falling Dragon Sea, python-type spirit beasts were particularly numerous, but very few could manage to undergo the Dragon Transformation Heavenly Tribulation.
But once they did, they were like dragons entering the sea, their power greatly amplified. In the sea, they were the greatest allies, prompting immense envy from the crowd.
Zhuang Guxue stood to the side, her beautiful eyes quietly watching Lu Li, curiosity arising within her heart.
“This man’s strength is enough to rival Jiang Taixu, and even his spirit beast is extraordinary. Which old monster could have produced such a successor.”
Amid the crowd’s myriad thoughts, battle erupted once again on the field.
Iron Pillar, having seized the upper hand with a strike, flicked its tail again, charging at the opponent as swiftly as lightning, with the air itself bursting into a series of sonic booms.
Raising its colossal tail with terrifying murderous intent, it savagely smashed towards the underbelly of the Spiritual Tiger.
“Ao…”
The Spiritual Tiger, still not recovered from the previous blow, could only stretch out its great paw in a desperate attempt to defend.
Upon collision, a dreadful scream resonated, as the Spiritual Tiger was violently smashed backward over ten meters, its vitality suddenly waning.
Gasping for breath as it lay on the ground, the Spiritual Tiger fixed its gaze on the giant python ahead, eyes brimming with boundless fear.
Strike when the enemy is sick, seize their life.
“Hu…”
At this moment, Iron Pillar again darted like lightning, channeling all its strength to viciously pound the hindquarters of the Spiritual Tiger with an awe-inspiring force.
In just a flash, it struck the tiger’s back, a resounding crack of breaking bones accompanying the agonized howls of the tiger, as it was ferociously smashed to the ground, its breathing nearly halted, inhaling much less than it exhaled.
With this blow, the Spiritual Tiger was gravely wounded, evidently beyond the brink of death.
All of this occurred within a few breaths’ time, the crowd yet to react when the battle had already concluded.
The group of Cultivators at the passage watched Lu Li with faces fraught with shock.
The anticipated dragon-tiger fight never materialized; just a few attacks left the Spiritual Tiger on the verge of death, which was nearly unbelievable.
Zhuang Guxue’s eyes sparkled with interest; she had taken a liking to the white python the moment it appeared. Its nobly elegant aura was compelling, and its strength unexpectedly formidable.
Not far away, Zhao Wuji barely mustered some concentration beneath the shadow of death, his face displaying a facade of bravado mixed with inner panic, “I advise you not to take matters to the extreme. The wrath of the Purple Mansion Family is not something you can withstand.”
“If I were to die here today, you and your clan would have to join in burial. Have you not considered your parents and kin?”
Hearing this, Lu Li’s face briefly betrayed a contemplative look, considering that heirs of great clans might possess some sort of tracking imprint…
Seeing Lu Li seemingly so concerned about his family, Zhao Wuji suddenly felt relieved and lowered his voice to bargain, “If you just retreat now, we can act as if this never happened, how about it?”
Under another’s roof, one must bow their head. Though he verbally relented, infinite rage surged within him. Zhao Wuji, a favored son of heaven, had never endured such humiliation.
“Survive today, and I will have the clan elders exterminate his family, without exception!”
Though this was his inner resolve, his face bore a slight smile.
The onlookers all watched Lu Li and the other man with varying degrees of surprise and uncertainty.
Everyone waited for Lu Li to make a decision.
“This mysterious man probably dares not kill Zhao Wuji. The fury of the Purple Mansion Family is not to be borne by just anyone.”
A young Cultivator even began to analyze the situation aloud, and the others nodded in agreement.
Zhuang Guxue also looked on worriedly, unsure whether her “backing” could withstand a Purple Mansion Cultivator if Lu Li were to kill Zhao Wuji.
“Iron Pillar, go smash that Spiritual Energy Shield.”
Lu Li scoffed, ordering Iron Pillar to crush the opponent’s ‘turtle shell.’
“What are you doing!”
Zhao Wuji looked at Lu Li in alarm, unable to believe the other showed no concern for his family.
The spectators also bore strange expressions, realizing they had all guessed wrong, as this mysterious person acted so recklessly.
Zhuang Guxue was also quite astonished, “This life-saving benefactor must be of no small origin, not even giving a second thought to the Purple Mansion Family.”
While everyone was surprised by Lu Li’s choice,
Iron Pillar, upon receiving the command, immediately charged towards Zhao Wuji with an overwhelming oppressive force.
“Bang bang…”
It lifted its giant tail and furiously pounded Zhao Wuji’s Spiritual Energy Shield, which began to shake violently, its surrounding radiance gradually dimming until it flickered erratically.
“My friend, let’s talk this out, I am willing to apologize…”

Zhao Wuji, face filled with fear, began to plead for mercy under the shadow of death.
As a Purple Mansion Golden Core hopeful, he came here only in search of Divine Skills, never expecting to encounter such a ferocious person,
and was absolutely unwilling to perish here!
