Chapter 406: Chapter 227: Success! Far Escape!_2
Seeing this turn of events, everyone became much more honest, as those targeted by Lu Li had only their ill-fortune to blame.
Of course, Lu Li didn’t go out of his way to provoke the stronger candidates in the first two tiers.
This caused many cultivators to curse him in their hearts for bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
Lu Li paid them no mind and continued to do as he pleased.
Thus, the entire battlefield began to take on a comical air.
A large number of ordinary alien beasts were swiftly slain by a grim young man then stashed away in his storage bag, leaving several cultivators with faces full of frustration standing stationary in their original places.
Such a scene also attracted the attention of many.
It was after Lu Li had once again aided a cultivator from the Demon Clan that a man dressed in black robes rapidly flew over.
The man had a cold appearance with piercing blood-red eyes and a terrifyingly murderous aura that one could not ignore.
Soon, the man approached a spot not far from Lu Li.
“Are you from the Stealing Heaven Alliance? How come I’ve never seen you before? Who is your patriarch?”
Xiao Yongting asked with a puzzled expression.
As one of the second-tier powerhouses, Xiao Yongting was familiar with most beings at Emperor Level and above in the entire Spirit Realm.
Yet someone like him felt unfamiliar, as if he had just popped up out of nowhere.
“I am Lin Fan; my patriarch’s name is not convenient to disclose.”
Lu Li managed a slight smile, seeming somewhat mysterious.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yongting didn’t give it much more thought, considering that within the organization, there were some old monsters whose movements were extremely secretive, to the point that even some Nascent Soul experts couldn’t fully comprehend them.
“After the World Crystal Core takes shape later on, we, the Holy Alliance, will first slaughter those cultivators from the Spirit Cloud Alliance who dub themselves as guardians, and then we’ll distribute the spoils of war…”
He whispered softly to Lu Li.
Lu Li smiled and nodded, his gaze flickering uncertainly.
To his amusement, his odd behavior had attracted the attention of the Stealing Heaven Alliance, and they had mistaken him for an accomplice.
This came as a surprise to him.
According to Zhao Sitong, this Alliance was probably not some righteous organization, likely playing a role similar to Zoroastrianism.
This gave him a sniff of something extraordinary.
Soon after, the two did not converse much and turned away from each other, each going their separate ways.
Next, Lu Li continued to weave his way through the battlefield, wantonly slaughtering innate spirit beasts.
As he absorbed a large quantity of spirit beasts into his inner world, his satisfaction grew.
The battle continued from morning until sunset.
Half of the beasts in the Beast Tide had already fallen, with the four top alien beasts left wounded and howling pitifully as they were encircled high in the sky.
Just as everyone in the Spirit Realm thought the situation was under control, a sudden change emanated from the colorful World Crystal Core in the sky.
“Hum…”
Endless Spiritual Energy began to converge on the Crystal Core, whipping up fierce and violent winds.
Moments later, the Crystal Core burst forth with incomparable radiance that shot straight into the sky.
A vast and pure power swept in all directions, making every nearby alien beast and cultivator feel a pressure in their chests as if a massive mountain bore down on them, leaving them breathless.
“The Crystal Core has formed!”
A group of cultivators showed expressions of joy.
The swiftest responders were the ten top powerhouses, who all abandoned the four alien beasts they were facing and rapidly surged toward the skies.
Lu Li also acted immediately upon sensing the anomaly.
He fully invoked his tunneling technique, enveloping himself in a luminous glow, and in just a few flashes, he soared speedily into the sky.
Layers of grey mist billowed around him, and in a blink, he vanished from the battlefield.
The remaining powerhouses also came to their senses.
They began to fully invoke their tunneling lights, flying toward the high skies.
Just as Lu Li and the others neared the large Crystal Core, a golden Flying Sword shot rapidly toward it.
The pure white Sword Qi ebbed and flowed in the void, like a river of stars, fiercely unstoppable.
It turned out that Wang Shoukun, seeing he was behind a few others, decided to make his move immediately.
“You reckless fool, dare!”
The other top powerhouses were filled with anger.
However, their objections did not affect Wang Shoukun in the slightest.
“Boom, boom, boom…”
The golden Flying Sword struck the large Crystal Core directly.
A powerful Gang Wind swept across all directions, as cracks spread all over the Crystal Core, and with a snap, it shattered into countless small pieces, scattering in every direction.
“Chase!”
Countless cultivators, without any time for anger, fixed their gaze on the fragments above.
With a flash of tunneling light, Lu Li swiftly arrived to the northwest, before a large and several medium-sized fragments, swept them all into his inner world with a wave, and then rapidly tunneled back.
As he made his escape, he kept an eye on the battlefield nearby.
Each of the ten top powerhouses had seized quite a few fragments.
The remaining pieces had fallen into the hands of second-tier cultivators.
Even Zhao Sitong managed to grab a few, yielding quite a good harvest.
Most of the fragments had flown past the crowd, shooting off in all directions.
“Quickly seize the Crystal Core fragments, or given enough time, they might disintegrate into the world…”
Several cultivators who hadn’t managed to get a fragment appeared anxious, flying off in all directions.
Others set their sights on those who had already succeeded.
Even Lu Li had quite a number following behind him.
His display of third-tier power yet having seized a large fragment of the Crystal Core undoubtedly excited the crowd immensely.
If they could just kill Lu Li, those Crystal Cores would be theirs.
Rather than spending effort competing for the Crystal Core, it was more convenient to just snatch it – this was what the pursuers believed.
Lu Li, feeling the presences behind him, had an exceedingly cold expression.
Among them was Zhang Dingren.
Plus, more than a dozen other cultivators were mostly second-tier powerhouses.
Everyone fully engaged their Escape Skills, biting closely on Lu Li’s heels.
After traveling a certain distance,
Lu Li suddenly accelerated, leaving the crowd far behind.
Surprised, the group watched, unable to believe that Lu Li was so swift and still had energy to spare.
