Chapter 251: 130: Using Strategy to Plan an Ingenious Plot, Striking A Blow at Soul Repair and Meeting an Old Friend (Added for Monthly Tickets)_3 Chapter 251: 130: Using Strategy to Plan an Ingenious Plot, Striking A Blow at Soul Repair and Meeting an Old Friend (Added for Monthly Tickets)_3 He Li’s figure had disappeared before they realized it.
“Thump-”
“Clang!”
Almost simultaneously, the techniques and charms used by Zhou Yunji and the others, who had appeared, hit nothing but empty air.
“Where has he gone?” asked Yang Lan, caught by surprise.
Just as she was mulling over it, she felt a sudden chill sent a shudder through her body.
A black demon mask appeared behind her, and an eerie transparent ghost hand was about to pierce her back.
But just then, the ghostly hand trembled, and a painful grunt echoed from behind.
“Who?
...
Who dares to use my Soul Devouring Sect’s specialised Divine Sense attack technique?”
The moment he felt the intense pain of his Spirit, He Li quickly became highly alert.
The female cultivator in front of him was startled and flew forward to avoid the attack, magic artifacts, and talisman charms all lashed out at him simultaneously.
He Li was about to make a hasty retreat, but he felt his lower body suddenly stiffen, out of his control.
A robust Wood Element spiritual energy, like a dogged hound that refuses to let go of its prey, invaded his feet.
“Ah!”
Shouting wildly, he let his formidable Mana explode and forcefully expelled the fungus-like energy from his body.
At the same time, several magic artifacts and charms were already bombarding him.
“Damn!”
A look of panic flashed across his eyes, and he quickly used the Ghost Creatures Replacement skill again to escape.
“Bang!”

A big hole was blast open in the ground where he had been standing, with burnt earth and sparks spewing out.
But He Li’s figure had already moved again, reappearing at the position of the Soul Attracting Banner.
However, the moment his figure replaced a ghost from the Ghost Creatures Replacement Skill, hundreds of shiny sword lights like silver lightning suddenly contracted and rolled up towards him.
The harsh sound and sharp airflow generated by the high-speed friction were enough to instil fear in anyone’s heart.
Moreover, as if by some implied agreement, Cao Yan’s figure had also appeared behind He Li at some unknown time.
The talismanic treasure he summoned emitted a radiant spiritual light, like a giant fire mirror, shooting out eye-piercing beams of concentrated white light.
It effectively kept the Yin Soul army composed of three Foundation Establishment Stage Yin Souls at bay.
“Bastards!”
He Li roared in fury, immediately summoning another magic artifact from his storage bag.
It quickly shaped into a gigantic black chrysanthemum, releasing a suppressing aura as it blossomed and rolled out, repelling the incoming barrage of sword light and causing sparks to fly.
“There’s a cunning kid who’s proficient in Divine Sense techniques hidden somewhere.
Damn!
Where is he, where is he…”
He Li cursed in his heart, his formidable Divine Sense quickly expanding in search.
In such a critical and intense moment, he was rarely in a situation where an unseen enemy was continuously targeting him.
The threat posed by this foe felt even more horrific than facing a late Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator like Cao Yan.
But before he could pinpoint Chen Dengming’s location, Chen Dengming revealed himself, his Mirror of Heart-piercing Illusion emitting a flash of light, like a lightning bolt streaking across the dark night sky, aimed directly at He Li.
Caught off guard, He Li was struck by the mirror’s light, causing him to cry out in pain.
The black chrysanthemum-shaped protective magic artifact around him seemed unable to defend and began to shrink.
Right then, the elemental attacks from the other cultivators also struck at the same time.
He Li threw Chen Dengming an intense glare and suddenly let out a long, piercing howl.
The Yin Spirit Banner vibrated dramatically, and the thousands of Yin Spirits suddenly detached from the main spirit and darted about wildly, indiscriminately bombarded the people below in the forest.
The three controlled Foundation Establishment Stage main spirits, meanwhile, let out screams of pain and despair, rapidly contracting and emitting wildly erratic energy signatures.
Cao Yan’s face changed instantly.
He quickly withdrew his talismanic treasures and descended, summoning his Three-color Mantle Defense Artifact.
He yelled, “Be careful!”
Boom!
——!
Three deafening explosions sounded as if they were one, causing the entire forest to tremble in fear.
Trees swayed, and leaves swirled around.
What was striking, however, was that only a small part of the explosive force diffused like a gust of wind.
The far more terrifying aspect of the explosion was at the spiritual level, creating waves of spiritual energy that induced dizziness, that swept across in all directions.
It hit Qi Fen, Yang Lan, Yu Lihu and the others, causing their bodies to tremble violently, their heads felt as if they were being hit by a massive hammer, and their eyes rolled back into their heads.
The Black Cloud Leopard, which had hidden itself a thousand feet away, yelped, feeling sick and dizzy.
It shook its head uncomfortably and began drooling.
Among the people on the battlefield, only Cao Yan and Chen Dengming were slightly better off.
They only felt slightly dizzy before quickly recovering.
Just as they were about to continue their elemental attacks, they discovered that the demon cultivator He Li’s figure, wrapped in the black chrysanthemum-shaped magic artifact, had turned into a streak of black light swiftly fleeing the scene.
Chasing a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator who knew the terrain of the battlefield well was not impossible at this point, but certainly very dangerous.
Both of them frowned, exchanged a look, and abandoned the idea of pursuing him further.
Driving him to the point where he had to abandon the Soul Attracting Banner and give up three primary Foundation Establishment Stage spirits and thousands of Yin spirits was a significant achievement in itself.
Moreover, with He Li’s loss of the Soul Attracting Banner, painstakingly accumulated by gradually collecting Yin spirits over time, his combat power would inevitably be reduced by more than half.
The threat he would pose if they encountered him again would be considerably diminished.
Gathering Yin spirits of the Foundation Establishment stage wasn’t an easy task.
Killing a Foundation Establishment cultivator didn’t imply that one could successfully control and harness the victim’s spirit for oneself.
“Brother Chen…”
As Cao Yan descended from the sky and looked at Chen Dengming with a smile, he was about to extend a salute to him.
But he saw Chen Dengming suddenly frown, looking puzzled as he walked towards the Soul Attracting Banner.
This left him bewildered.
After losing control from Cao Yan, the Soul Attracting Banner gradually floated down from the sky, attracting a large number of Yin spirits that were still lingering around.
They were drawn towards it automatically.
These Yin spirits seemed to identify the Soul Attracting Banner as their home.
If they were to leave it, they would become lost spirits, unable to go anywhere, forced to wander aimlessly, gradually becoming evil curses or dissipating in the world.
Right now, what caught Chen Dengming’s attention was one particular spirit among the remaining thousands that seemed somewhat familiar.
This spirit had a face full of brutal features, copper bell eyes, and looked fierce.
Upon closer inspection, it was unmistakably the meat seller – Chu Xun!
With his brows furrowed, Chen Dengming suddenly clenched his fists.
He found it hard to believe, communicating with Chu Xun’s spirit with his Divine Thought.
“Daoist friend Zhu, is that really you?”
