Chapter 296: 266 External Incarnation, Mr. Xu the Cultivator’s Backup Plan
Lin Shiming watched the Great Five Elements Demon Subduing Formation that trapped Lady Zi and Xiao Chen, still utterly composed.
Despite releasing all kinds of binding techniques to trap and kill the Purple Jade Demon Python, there clearly lacked a certain flair in his moves, replaced with a hint of stiffness.
Puzzled, he asked, "Body Duplication Technique?"
Lady Zi did not answer, but the lack of an answer was the best response.
Perhaps this was why Xiao Chen and Lady Zi had been able to lure their enemies into the trap so effortlessly.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for the other cultivators to be deceived.
What Lin Shiming couldn’t understand was that when the latter had entered the Peach Blossom River Scenic Map Magic Artifact, it was clearly not a body double; otherwise, Lin Xianzhi and the others wouldn’t have been mistaken at that time.
Unless it had been a body double from the start, and it was only because of the painting magic artifact that their uniqueness was concealed.
The Transformation Thunder Tribulation approached incredibly fast. The thunderstorm clouds in the sky grew thicker and denser, with lightning bolts dancing among them, and from time to time, the sound of thunderous explosions echoed!
In the blink of an eye, the lightning had condensed to its peak, like the wrath of an executioner’s sentence, a thunderous roar sounded, and a bucket-thick bolt of lightning furiously struck down.
Meanwhile, Xiao Chen had arrived at the foot of the Taiqing Purple Jade Fruit tree with extreme joy.
Now no person or beast could obstruct him!
But the very next moment, all he saw was a massive broadsword slashing fiercely at his back. The sword qi and the murderous aura were almost chilling to the extreme!
Forced to turn around and block in a hurry.
Xiao Chen took out a massive black tower and placed it in front of himself to fend off the heavy sword.
Even so, he was sent flying out like a cannonball.
"Who?" Xiao Chen bellowed in anger, and at the same time, he was utterly baffled!
Within this Purple Secret Realm, there was actually someone who could follow them inside.
He had clearly checked an area of thousands of miles around.
"What’s more, the brethren from the Wanjian Sect promised to support the Xu Family. What does it matter to me if I’m destroyed by the Heavenly Dao? I am but someone at the end of his life. Do you, old dog Xiao, really imagine sharing the Purple Jade Fruit with me, offering me a chance to glimpse the Great Dao?" Cultivator Xu sneered coldly, staring at Xiao Chen.
Seeing Xiao’s face turn cold and disdainful, yet struggling to bear it, he burst out laughing heartily.
Immortal cultivation, immortal cultivation; if one cannot enjoy life to the fullest, what use is there in becoming an immortal after all?
"Old dog Xiao, do you think you are deserving of the Purple Mansion?" Cultivator Xu wanted to continue but suddenly noticed the extraction of his True Yuan becoming more terrifying, and his body started to shrivel at an alarming rate.
Inside the formation, Xiao Chen’s face revealed a fierce expression as he began forcibly draining Cultivator Xu!
"I will wait for you in the netherworld! Today you will not get what you want!" Cultivator Xu used the last bit of his energy to roar angrily.
Then, he revealed a long-missed look of relief.
Having violated the Heavenly Oath, he could no longer cultivate; cultivation would bring about the presence of a Heavenly Demon.
Now, however, it was a different kind of liberation.
Boom!
The thunder of the Heavenly Tribulation struck, and the Purple Jade Python no longer paid any heed to the formation; roaring, it aimed to launch into the sky and crush the Heavenly Tribulation!
But the terrifying Heavenly Tribulation was a hundred times stronger than that of a wood demon.
Under the deafening boom, the domineering Taiqing Purple Jade Python was turned into a python of electric arcs, writhing and roaring within the formation, its tail smacking about wildly.
Its entire body pulsed with electric arcs, numerous areas of its purple crystal scales blasted open, exposing raw purple flesh beneath, a shocking and ghastly sight!
And this was only the first wave of the Heavenly Tribulation!
Suddenly, in the formation, another small cluster of star-patterned insect cloud appeared, floating around Lin Xianzhi, crafting an insect armor for him.
The swarming insects forced Lin Xianzhi to break out of the formation in an instant, and with a single flicker, he appeared by Lin Xianzhi’s side.
The grandfather and grandson stood back to back, not making a move, but they were searching for an opportunity.
Shi Tai was the only one left within the formation, desperately holding on.
