Eternal Life: I Can Break Through The Limits Of All Methods

Chapter 164: Fortuitous Encounter with Jiang Zhilan

After sending the sword puppet back to the space, Chu Ming switched his perspective to another puppet.

He was currently located at Zhaoyao Mountain, more than four hundred miles southwest of the Divine Will Sect.

The place was lush with flowers and green mountains, offering pleasant scenery. There were many Foundation Building stage Demonic Beast Spirit Beasts living here.

It wasn't far from the north to the Biling Valley, where disciples of the Biling Valley usually went for trials.

In the distant sky, a group of green-robed cultivators was engaged in battle with a group of demonic cultivators.

Their strength was mostly at the mid-stage or above of Foundation Building, using various spells and Law Treasures. The sky was constantly booming and shining with different colors.

Occasionally, injured or dead cultivators would fall down, either demonic cultivators or green-robed cultivators.

It seemed that the disciples of the Biling Valley had encountered demonic cultivators.

In the higher sky, two figures were chasing and fighting at an extremely fast speed.

Upon closer inspection, one of them was a male demonic cultivator with red wings on his back and two giant horns on his head. He had already revealed his demonic body and stood over thirty feet tall.

His strength should be at the mid-stage of Core Formation, reaching perfection.

The other person was a plump, green-robed female cultivator with enchanting fox-like eyes.

Chu Ming happened to know her; she was Jiang Zhilan.

It had been several years since they last met on Golden Scale Lake.

It was said that she had gained a lot from fishing in the Spirit Fish and the trials at the Dragon Gate.

Now it seemed that she had also reached the mid-stage of Core Formation, reaching perfection.

However, although their strengths were close, it was obvious during their fight that the demonic cultivator's techniques restrained Jiang Zhilan.

Jiang Zhilan struck out with a Hundred Flowers Palm, causing petals to fall and fly in all directions.

The demonic cultivator, on the other hand, unleashed a dark green wood-based palm strike.

When the two palms collided, Jiang Zhilan's petal palm force was instantly corroded into mud.

The demonic cultivator's palm force continued to attack Jiang Zhilan.

The demonic cultivator laughed, "Beautiful girl, you've encountered your nemesis by meeting me."

"Don't worry, I won't kill you. Behave and let me take you back to my sect to become a demonic cultivator and be my companion."

Jiang Zhilan dodged this strike and immediately used a move called "Wood Transforms into Butterflies," sending countless green butterflies to attack the demonic cultivator below.

The demonic cultivator she was fighting against countered with a corrupting snake vine, easily resolving her attack and then counterattacking.

Jiang Zhilan quickly used a fire talisman to block this move.

The demonic cultivator sneered, "You can't even handle me, so don't think about saving others."

"Your Law Treasures are running out of power, and your fire talismans are almost used up, right?"

"Surrender obediently, and we can reduce casualties."

"You're all good seedlings. It would be a pity if you died. It's much better to come back to our sect and become demonic cultivators."

Jiang Zhilan looked worriedly at the injured and fallen disciples below, her face showing a sense of urgency.

With her abilities, it would be no problem for her to escape alone.

But those below were her juniors. How could she abandon them?

She glared at the demonic cultivator and said coldly, "Yuan Qing, if you release them, I can go with you."

"If not, I can only fight you to the death. Even if the fish dies and the net breaks."

The demonic cultivator named Yuan Qing laughed, "Hehe, Fellow Daoist Jiang's reputation precedes her. Your words have never been trustworthy. Why bother deceiving me?"

"If you really let them go, you will naturally find a way to escape."

"Don't worry, it's only a matter of time before I defeat you. By then, no one will be able to escape."

A trace of anger flashed in Jiang Zhilan's eyes. She condensed wood spiritual energy and unleashed a giant wooden dragon over thirty feet thick. "Then go to hell!"

However, Yuan Qing also unleashed a three-foot thick corrupting green snake, easily resolving her attack.

Seeing the battle between the two sides, Chu Ming also realized that Jiang Zhilan was completely restrained and that defeat was only a matter of time.

The main reason she didn't leave was also to save the disciples of the Biling Valley below, which could be considered as having a sense of righteousness.

Although he had some conflicts with Jiang Zhilan, it was not necessary to worry about such trivial matters in the current situation of demonic cultivation.

And he could also take advantage of Jiang Zhilan's words to spread the reputation of the Heavenly Dao Sect, so that the entire cultivation world of Jin Kingdom would know.

In this way, those who had the idea of joining the Myriad Demon Cave would naturally retreat.

The righteous cultivators would also be motivated, thus making up their minds to confront the demonic cultivators to the end.

The puppet he controlled at the moment was wearing a black Daoist robe and had an ordinary appearance.

Since the demonic cultivator was restrained by fire, the puppet would disguise itself as a fire cultivator.

In the future, he planned to use more puppets, each disguised as a cultivator proficient in different techniques.

This was also to make the Heavenly Dao Sect appear more numerous and skilled, with each person possessing unique skills.

In this way, the old demon, Qi Ziheng, and others should believe even more that the Heavenly Dao Sect truly existed.

After converting the spiritual energy in his body, he controlled the puppet to fly towards that direction.

With a flick of his hand, a palm-sized firebird was sent out.

This technique seemed ordinary, but its speed was extremely fast.

The firebird moved among the group of cultivators, instantly incinerating any demonic cultivator it touched.

The disciples of the Biling Valley were all stunned and quickly looked towards Chu Ming's direction.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for your help!"

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist!"

...

Chu Ming didn't pay much attention to them. After clearing the demonic cultivators below, he controlled the firebird to fly towards the demonic cultivator named Yuan Qing.

Jiang Zhilan and Yuan Qing both noticed the commotion below.

Jiang Zhilan's face showed joy as she quickly clasped her hands and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for your help!"

Yuan Qing, on the other hand, was on high alert and quickly released a large mass of corrupting tree sap, trying to extinguish the firebird.

This was his spell that restrained fire cultivators, and most fire-based spells couldn't withstand this attack.

However, when the firebird collided with the tree sap, it directly ignited the sap, completely burning it to ashes, and continued flying towards him.

Yuan Qing was shocked and quickly summoned a leg bone-shaped Law Weapon emitting a frosty aura, striking towards the firebird.

Ice and fire clashed, creating a strong explosion. Although his Heavenly Rank Middle Grade Law Weapon was also burned to ashes, it helped him withstand the attack.

Although a few sparks landed on his body, they didn't cause much damage.

"Who are you?" Yuan Qing quickly asked.

Chu Ming had a calm expression. "I am Huo Da, a disciple of the outer sect's Martial Hall of the Heavenly Dao Sect."

"Heavenly Dao Sect?" Yuan Qing was somewhat confused. In the more than one hundred years he had been cultivating in the Jin Kingdom, he had never heard of such a sect.

Jiang Zhilan and the disciples of the Biling Valley were also confused. They had never heard of this Heavenly Dao Sect either.

Was it a sect from a foreign country?

And this Fellow Daoist Huo Da actually said he was just a disciple of the outer sect's Martial Hall, which was quite shocking. Wasn't he already a Core Formation cultivator?

What kind of strength could this Heavenly Dao Sect possess?

But the old demon connected to Yuan Qing's soul trembled upon hearing the name of this sect.

Another disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect's outer sect!

This person was a fire cultivator and displayed extraordinary strength.

The demonic cultivator disciples who were burned by his flames didn't even leave behind a trace of ashes.

Could this be another powerful fire-based true intent?
