He never expected that Li Yao's cultivation level far exceeded his imagination!
While Li Yao was fighting Qinglong, Su Ru and You Ji, Tian Buyi and Duanmu Laozu, and Cangsong and another master of the Demonic Sect were also engaged in battle.
The remaining forces of good and evil have also fallen into a chaotic battle.
Apart from the Ghost King who was subduing the Kui Niu, only Zhang Xiaofan and Biyao remained uninvolved.
They looked at each other, their expressions extremely complicated.
While fighting the Azure Dragon, Li Yao kept an eye on Zhang Xiaofan and Biyao, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
It seems that Zhang Xiaofan and Biyao have both fallen deeply in love with each other!
Li Yao was not like Dao Xuan and other so-called righteous people who kept saying that good and evil were irreconcilable enemies.
He had no intention of breaking up these two couples!
Therefore, he will not stop Zhang Xiaofan and Biyao from dating.
Of course, he wouldn't give up seizing the Demonic Sect's divine artifact, the 'Dragon-Subduing Cauldron,' just because of the two of them.
Indeed, he has his eye on the Fulong Cauldron.
Seeing that Li Yao was no easy opponent, Qinglong had no choice but to push the Qiankun Qingguang Ring to its limit.
A dazzling blue light flashed and struck Li Yao in the blink of an eye.
Unexpectedly, Li Yao directly met the blue light head-on!
Just as he stepped forward, his figure spun rapidly, spiraling around the azure light, and charged towards the azure dragon.
"What uncanny skill!"
Qinglong was shocked. He was about to change the direction of the ring's attack when he was shocked to feel a blur before his eyes and at the same time, the finger wearing the ring seemed to be touched.
The next moment, only a fleeting image of Li Yao remained in front of him, while Li Yao's true form was already several feet away.
"What incredible speed!"
Qinglong's face was pale.
That's terrifying!
He never imagined that Li Yao could be so fast. Before he could even process what was happening, Li Yao had not only approached him in an instant, but had also moved away from him in the same instant.
However, there was one thing he couldn't understand at all.
Given Li Yao's swift movements, he could have easily taken his life just now. Why didn't Li Yao do so?
Qinglong was completely baffled!
Indeed, Li Yao could have taken his life just now.
However, he had other plans in mind.
Azure Dragon cannot die at this moment!
Just now, he approached Qinglong only to copy the Qiankun Qingguang Ring on Qinglong's finger.
Now that he had the Qiankun Qingguang Ring, he was too lazy to fight the Azure Dragon and instead turned his attention to the Fulong Cauldron.
Immediately, he flashed and sped off towards the Fulong Cauldron.
Chapter 348 Battle Against the Ghost King
"Sect Master, be careful!"
Youji, who was fighting Su Ru nearby, noticed Li Yao attacking the Ghost King and quickly shouted a warning.
At the same time, she broke free from Su Ru and unleashed her magic weapon, the Vermilion Bird Seal.
A flash of crimson light appeared, and a huge crimson seal, containing mysterious and extremely strange techniques, attacked Li Yao.
"Oh, another magical treasure delivered right to our doorstep!"
Li Yao felt a surge of energy coming from behind him. He quickly turned around and saw a vermilion seal, like a giant hand, pressing down on him.
He chuckled softly, then suddenly reached out with his right hand and forcefully grabbed You Ji's Vermilion Bird Seal.
"ah?!"
Yu Ji was dumbfounded.
In her memory, no one had ever dared to take her Vermilion Bird Seal head-on.
You should know that her Vermilion Bird Seal is extremely powerful; if you were to take it head-on, you would be seriously injured even if you didn't die.
Li Yao caught her Vermilion Bird Seal with ease and without a scratch!
This is unbelievable!
Youji was greatly alarmed, and at the same time, she felt a powerful palm force sweeping towards her.
But she stood there blankly in the distance, forgetting to dodge.
At that moment, Biyao, who was not far away, exclaimed, "No!"
After the strong wind subsided, Li Yao was startled.
The others were even more stunned.
A gust of wind swept by, blowing away the veil covering You Ji's face and revealing her unparalleled beauty beneath.
Countless times she had thought that no one else in her life would ever be able to unveil her secrets.
When night falls and her heart is filled with longing, she sometimes wonders what that white figure from back then is doing now.
She never imagined that one day her veil would be lifted.
However, her face was not injured at all.
Youji was stunned for a long time, then her beautiful eyes widened, she glared at Li Yao fiercely, and suddenly turned around.
Meanwhile, both the righteous and demonic factions fighting nearby were stunned by You Ji's breathtaking beauty.
Li Yao laughed and said, "She is indeed an absolute beauty!"
At the same time, he copied the Vermilion Bird Seal, then threw it at You Ji, laughing, "Here's your Vermilion Bird Seal back."
At this moment, Youji had turned around and put her veil back on.
Youji took the Vermilion Bird Seal and glared fiercely at Li Yao.
Li Yao flashed and flew towards the Ghost King.
This is the crucial moment for the Ghost King to subdue the Kui Niu.
Therefore, Qinglong intervened again to stop Li Yao.
Meanwhile, Youji was once again entangled with Su Ru.
Faced with Qinglong's obstruction, Li Yao simply smiled and said, "Qinglong, I advise you not to ask for trouble."
As he spoke, he formed a hand seal and swiftly struck out with his palm. A palm print of profound gold with an infinite pattern, like a giant net, swept towards the Azure Dragon.
Qinglong felt that the palm print seemed to have no boundaries and no center. No matter how he dodged, the palm print always came straight at him.
He had no choice but to frantically unleash his magical power, causing the Qiankun Qingguang Ring on his finger to burst forth with azure light, attempting to use the azure light to shatter the giant palm print.
Having shaken off the Azure Dragon, Li Yao headed straight for the Ghost King.
Seeing Li Yao's attack, the Ghost King had no choice but to temporarily abandon his plan to subdue the Kui Niu and instead try to find a way to defeat Li Yao.
"So you are the sect leader of the Peerless Sect?"
The Ghost King stood atop the Dragon-Subduing Cauldron, carefully examining Li Yao, and said with a faint smile:
"To have such profound cultivation at such a young age is truly remarkable!"
"If you are willing to join my Holy Sect, the position of Vice Sect Master of my Ghost King Sect will be reserved for you."
The Ghost King actually tried to win over Li Yao.
This caught both the righteous and the demonic forces present off guard.
Li Yao chuckled and said, "Do you think I care about your position as the vice sect leader of the Ghost King Sect?"
The Ghost King said sincerely, "My Ghost King Sect is the most renowned faction in the Holy Sect, with immense power and profound foundation, which is incomparable to your Peerless Sect, which was only founded five years ago."
Li Yao said, "It is indeed very tempting, but as the saying goes, it's better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. Besides, I don't think my Peerless Sect is any worse than your Ghost King Sect."
The Ghost King's smile vanished, and he said coldly, "In that case, I'll see what your skills are all about."
As soon as he finished speaking, a surge of yin energy erupted around him, and chilling ghostly aura emanated from his body.
In an instant, a cloud of pitch-black mist rose up.
Within that eerie, ghostly aura emanated a chilling malevolent energy, as if a monstrous demon with overwhelming killing intent lurked within.
Suddenly, from within the dark, ghostly aura, two enormous lamps gleamed with an eerie green light.
The next moment, a ferocious and terrifying giant claw emerged from the ghostly aura.
Immediately, a bolt of purple lightning tore through the sky, illuminating the entire horizon.
Then, a thunderclap boomed loudly.
Under the light of the lightning, everyone could see clearly that within the dark, ghostly aura, there was a hideous and terrifying giant skeleton.
The ghostly creature was pitch black and over ten feet tall. The two bright lamps were actually two balls of ghostly fire burning in its empty eyes.
"Waaaaah..."
The ghostly creature howled to the sky, like countless vengeful spirits wailing, its cries echoing endlessly between heaven and earth, causing people to tremble with fear and their souls to be scattered.
Among the righteous and demonic beings present, many with slightly lower cultivation levels were directly stunned by this soul-stirring wail.
"Prepare to die!"
The ghostly giant claw reached out and grabbed directly at Li Yao.
This grab contains countless sinister and ghostly energies; once caught, one's soul may be scattered on the spot.
"Good timing!"
