Chapter 389 - 215: Golden Core Bloodline
These demon cultivators before him couldn’t compare to Lin Qianyin.
Any cultivator affected by the Spirit Extinction Elixir, below Foundation Establishment, could forget about mobilizing even a trace of spiritual power.
Originally, he should have pressed his advantage at this moment.
After casting the Lion’s Roar Spell, Liou Yuan forcibly halted the direction of the Treading Flowing Waves, redirecting his rush to the not-so-distant Yan Yingsi.
The latter had just charged ahead, clearing a path for him by devouring over a dozen spells with the Red Robe Swallowing Dome Spell.
Though she successfully broke through in the end, removing obstacles for Liou Yuan, her form as a Red Robe fell from mid-air at the moment she burst out.
She could no longer maintain the form of the Red Robe, revealing her true self.
During this process, she spat a mouthful of blood, clearly showing that her breakthrough was not as effortless as it seemed.
"How are you!" Liou Yuan got close to her, seeing her long black hair drooping, obscuring her face, with only blood gushing continuously from her mouth.
Yan Yingsi took a brief breath before her cold, stunning face emerged from the depths of her black hair, now covered in blood stains.
"Not dead yet!" Yan Yingsi’s voice was noticeably weaker than before.
Liou Yuan didn’t believe Yan Yingsi’s words, fearing this woman might die.
Immediately, he scanned her body with his Evil Eyes. At such close proximity, he could see traces of several ruptured meridians.
It seemed that she had devoured too many spells, exceeding the Red Robe Swallowing Dome Spell’s limit, thereby shattering her meridians.
"A few meridians are broken, and you’re okay?"
Liou Yuan cursed annoyedly and then asked, "What fraction of your strength can you exert now?"
"Eighty percent!" Yan Yingsi closed her eyes to sense, then replied.
"Good enough!" Liou Yuan wasn’t one to show pity. Yan Yingsi at eighty percent strength already surpassed most at Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer.
Bang! The Canglan Sword was unsheathed, Liou Yuan’s sword tip pointed directly at the demon cultivators corrupted by the Spirit Extinction Elixir, and he grinned viciously, "Now’s the time to hit them while they’re down, let’s slaughter our way in."
The effect of the Spirit Extinction Elixir had taken hold, and many demon cultivators who attempted to wield spiritual power to attack the two of them immediately suffered a backlash from the elixir, their meridians exploding instantly.
The demon cultivators gathered at the entrance of the cave tunnel suddenly looked aghast, and the more experienced among them immediately recognized what kind of elixir Liou Yuan had used against them.
"Spirit Extinction Elixir!"
An old demon cultivator exclaimed in warning to the cultivators present, "Do not use spiritual power recklessly, the Spirit Extinction Elixir will clog meridians, and forcing spiritual power will cause the meridians to burst."
"Withdraw from here, the poison of the Spirit Extinction Elixir only affects for half an hour."
The old demon cultivator, being one of those at Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer, was unquestioned by the other demon cultivators.
They immediately abandoned the pursuit of Liou Yuan and Yan Yingsi, wanting to exit the cave entrance.
But by this time, it was too late.
Upon hearing Liou Yuan’s words, Yan Yingsi had already reactivated the Red Robe Swallowing Dome Spell, and her figure merged into the red garments, ready to pursue and attack.
At this moment, Liou Yuan handed the Cold Star and Moonlight Bracelet, indicative of defense, into her hands, advising, "Activate this Cold Star and Moonlight Bracelet for protection, it can resist the poison of the Spirit Extinction Elixir."
Liou Yuan was protected by a shield of blood, rendering the poison of the Spirit Extinction Elixir unable to erode through it, as had been tested at the Nether Abyss Peak.
Liou Yuan wasn’t sure if Yan Yingsi’s Red Robe Swallowing Dome Spell could block the poison of the Spirit Extinction Elixir, and not wanting to gamble, he decisively handed the superior magical artifact to her.
Yan Yingsi grinned broadly, unceremoniously donning the Cold Star and Moonlight Bracelet on her wrist, not forgetting to tease, "Aren’t you afraid I won’t return it?"
Before Liou Yuan could reply, Yan Yingsi had already vanished from the spot.
"If only you could pay..." Liou Yuan opened his mouth, staring at Yan Yingsi’s retreating figure into the demon cultivators, but he didn’t utter the words asking for money.
Then, brandishing the Canglan Sword, he activated the Treading Flowing Waves, following closely behind.
These demon cultivators could no longer wield spiritual power, facing the joint attack of the two slaughtering gods, Liou Yuan and Yan Yingsi, they could only escape in disarray.
Even in their peak condition, few could outpace these two in speed, let alone under the influence of the Spirit Extinction Elixir, these demon cultivators.
Liou Yuan set his blood shield covering his entire body, stepping on Treading Flowing Waves, while Yan Yingsi activated the Cold Star and Moonlight Bracelet, transforming into a blood light, charged into the crowd.
Bang! Sword Qi roared.
Liou Yuan unleashed Shock Tide, its devastating sword beams turning into surging waves, sweeping through nearly half the cave space.
Within the domain of Sword Qi, the demon cultivators fell like wheat being cut.
On the other side, Yan Yingsi fully activated the Red Robe Swallowing Dome Spell, morphing into a blood-red curtain covering the heavens, engulfing within it over a dozen cultivators in its spell.
No demon cultivator could muster an effective resistance; it was a one-sided slaughter.
Inside the defense barrier of the Earth Mother Prison Array, several Wind Chasing Division disciples who were maintaining the array with spiritual power, stared wide-eyed at the blood-drenched images of Liou Yuan and Yan Yingsi, each with a peculiar expression.
Yan Yingsi’s prowess was apparent to the entirety of the Wind Chasing Division, her image firmly implanted in everyone’s mind.
But what was up with Liou Yuan?
Previously, when he executed the Stepping Wave Body Skill, the Wind Chasing Division disciples felt something was off; his speed had already matched Yan Yingsi’s.
Now, with the momentum like tidal waves striking against the cave walls conjured by his sword beams, it surpassed even Linglong Sword Tian Qiweng’s capability.
"This Liou Yuan is now also at Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer! How long has it been since he entered, less than four years?"
Among the Wind Chasing Division disciples, the male disciple who wielded the Bone-Piercing Nail was the first to notice the anomaly in Liou Yuan’s cultivation level, the grand wave of spiritual power fluctuations was clearly at Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer.
