Chapter 297: Chapter 271: System Advanced Features_2
Facing an Ascender who possessed a Domain, Third Master knew that he had to fight swiftly and resolve the battle quickly, as time was not on his side.
Without any hesitation, Third Master took out his War Saber and struck with all his might, cleaving towards the ground. He did not aim for Li Cheng, after all, he was not foolish and knew that within the opponent’s Domain, he simply couldn’t land a hit on the man. Thus, he needed to find a way to break the Domain first.
But just as he slashed out, Third Master suddenly felt the world spinning around him, the direction of gravity changing constantly!
Not only that, he distinctly sensed hundreds of years of his lifespan being severed. Even though this loss was but a drop in the bucket for him, the disappearance of lifespan left him momentarily weakened!
This weakness lasted but an instant, but in that very instant, raging flames broke through Third Master’s defenses, scorching his body black in a flash!
Taking advantage of this moment, Li Cheng flicked his fingers into a sword, mysteriously appearing in front of him, and drove the sword through his Dantian.
After all, Third Master was a late-stage Heaven God State powerhouse. Sensing the danger, he evacuated his Divine Child and Divine Soul instantly, and quickly said, “Stop, this is a misunderstanding!”
Li Cheng sneered, “Then let’s follow through with this misunderstanding to the end!”
Hiss!
Flames swept over, enveloping the Divine Child, together with the hidden Divine Soul inside, refining both!
Without the protection of a physical body, what could a late-stage Heaven God State amounts to? In a mere moment, he was completely dissipated!
Confirming that no divine thoughts of the soul had escaped, Li Cheng quietly heaved a sigh of relief. He needed to find a suitable weapon for himself.
Without delay, the pressing matter was to destroy the corpse and erase all traces!
With his Domain retracted, he could see that the Giant Beast had already fled thousands of miles away.
Li Cheng struck the Giant Beast with his Divine Sense, instantly knocking it unconscious, and then he used his Divine Sense to carry its huge body back.
Taking out a Tripod, Li Cheng gathered all the corpses and the Giant Beast into it, then surged his Divine Sense to erase all evidence.
After finishing these tasks, Li Cheng flew towards Hidden Spirit Village.
At the entrance of the village, it was enveloped by an Array with all the villagers eagerly waiting inside. Seeing Li Cheng approaching, the villagers were elated.
“I told you, Brother Li must have stealthily followed them and now should have some news!”
Yes, Brother Li must have discovered the location of where Yin Yue is held.
Let’s set out with him immediately, and even if it costs us our lives, we must rescue Yin Yue!”
Yin Qingshan looked back at the people and thought to himself that he really had grown old, hesitant and lacking the hot-bloodedness of the past.
Since everyone was prepared to disregard their own safety, he would give his all too. That was his granddaughter; no matter what, he could not allow those bandits to defile her!
As Li Cheng arrived, with a flip of his hand, Yin Yue appeared beside him.
All the villagers were stunned!
They were all ready for a desperate fight, not expecting that Yin Yue would actually be rescued!
Third Master would never let someone go unless, of course, he was dead!
And who killed him? It must have been Li Cheng!
For a moment, everyone’s eyes widened in shock. Early-stage Heaven God State Li Cheng, killed the Third Master of Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold?
Snapping back to reality, Yin Qingshan hastily dispelled the Array, “Yuer!” “Grandpa, Big Brother is so powerful. He killed all those people…” Yin Yue, surprisingly, was not scared but rather excitedly recounted the events to everyone.
Li Cheng inwardly sighed and said to Yin Qingshan with a clasped fist, “I’m sorry for the trouble I might have caused the village. Although I’ve destroyed the body and erased the traces, it wouldn’t be hard to investigate this matter.”
What are you talking about, Brother Li? We were all ready to go all out against Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold, how could we fear death?” one of the villagers said discontentedly.
“Exactly, those scum deserved to die. We couldn’t endure them any longer!”
The villagers were filled with righteous indignation.
Yin Qingshan raised his hand to calm everyone and bowed deeply to Li Cheng, Brother Li, thank you. You don’t have to worry. If worst comes to worst, our entire village will just sneak away.”
“It’s not a solution to keep hiding. I think we might as well take a stand against Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold with Brother Li leading us!” someone suggested with a clenched fist.
Yin Qingshan glared at that person and said, “Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold has more than six hundred people, with Second Master Blade Edge being a peak Heaven God State cultivator, and First Master Blade, a Complete Heaven God State. There are also a dozen or so early and mid-stage Heaven God State powerhouses. How can we fight them?”
“Scar, Blade Edge, and Blade are said to be real brothers. Now that Scar is dead, Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold will surely scour the surrounding villages. In less than a month’s time, they will definitely locate us here.”
“When the time comes, whether there’s evidence or not, they will surely take action to annihilate our village, so we can only look for a chance to slip away quietly.”
Upon hearing this, the villagers fell silent.
Li Cheng pondered, “A month, huh?”
The system will be upgraded in six or seven days, and then I can use the Enlightenment chances. If I can set up a second-level Divine Array with the help of Enlightenment, Hidden Spirit Village will have nothing to worry about.
However, I don’t even have a single first-level Divine Array, let alone a second- level one.
Contemplating, Li Cheng turned to Yin Qingshan, “Village Chief, does the village have a second-level Divine Array? If it is set up, Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold will surely meet their demise without a return.”
Yin Qingshan shook his head wryly, “Only I, the half-baked Array Master, is in the village, and it’s already a stretch for me to set up a first-level Divine Array, not to mention a second-level one. We do have an Array Diagram for a second- level Divine Array in the village…”
As he spoke, Yin Qingshan seemed to think of something and quickly looked at Li Cheng, “Brother Li, are you an Array Master? If I give you the Array Diagram, can you set up a second-level Divine Array?”
Village Chief, the only second-level Formation we have in the village is the Hidden Spirit Array. Didn’t you give it to Scar before?” a villager reminded.
Yin Qingshan waved his hand and pointed to his head, “I remember it perfectly.”
Li Cheng smiled, “I’ll try, but I can’t say for sure if I can set it up. Let’s prepare
a backup plan just in case!”
Soon, the plan was set. Hidden Spirit Village would stay put as if nothing had happened, business as usual.
Li Cheng went millions of miles away from Hidden Spirit Village to sort out his spoils of war.
The reason for going so far was naturally to avoid any chance that someone from Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold might sense the qi of these storage bags; for safety, the farther, the better.
Pulling out the storage bags, Li Cheng’s first course of action was to erase any lingering qi, and then he began to inspect each one.
The ten-plus bodies all had storage bags on them, but they contained only Divine Rice and some useless things, not even a single Divine Stone.
However, in Scar’s storage bag, there were ten Divine Stones and a thousand jin of Divine Rice.
After sorting everything out, there were only ten Divine Stones and two thousand jin of Divine Rice in total. Li Cheng threw all the useless items into a large tripod and refined them into flying ash.
Their weapons too, were refined by Li Cheng into a large lump of metal.
Then, each night, Li Cheng took those bodies and appeared at various locations on the plains of Move Cloud Mountain Stronghold, dropping a body and leaving each time, to confuse them and buy time.
During the day, Li Cheng studied the Hidden Spirit Array.
The Hidden Spirit Array that the Village Chief had given to Scar was now in Li Cheng’s hands, and the Village Chief had made no move to ask for its return, occasionally discussing it with Li Cheng.
