Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 809 – Gu worms

When Yang Qinlang pointed out her finger, she used the “Petrification Finger”, which was one of the hardest techniques to cultivate in the spirit arts passed down in the Yang Family. All the observing Yang’s Diciplexclaimed in shock, no one had managed to learn this skill even among the fourth generation disciples of the Madame Yang, not even Yang Qinzhang.

Liu Lichang seemed to be able to detect the extraordinary ability of this sacred art. Seeing the yellow imprint flying at him from the sky, he immediately flew back, and at the same time, pushed his hands against his chest. An extremely condensed ball of spiritual energy collided with the imprint, and amidst the sounds of mutual annihilation, a broken stone bead fell to the ground with a “crackling” sound.

It had to be said that Yang Qinlang was a core disciple of the baleful qi realm, and her strength was far from something the participating elites in the elite competition could compare to. But now that Liu Lichang had suddenly erupted with such strength, there was only one possibility, and that person had hidden his strength in the previous match, so his cultivation was definitely not as simple as just being in the Muddy Qi Realm.

This person was truly a ghost!

Yang Qinlang was not surprised by Liu Lichang’s ability, as he immediately stepped forward, and a halo of light expanded outwards, attempting to restrict Liu Lichang’s movements.

The cultivators watching the battle cried out in alarm: “magnetic light, Brother Lang has even mastered this sacred art!”

Unexpectedly, Liu Lichang laughed coldly, his entire body flashed with a light, and unexpectedly the magnetic light was rejected, causing Yang Qinlang to become alarmed. He then quickly shot out a spiral shaped light arrow condensed from spirit energy, flying towards Yang Qinlang’s chest.

Yang Qinlang’s heart trembled, her two hands clasped in front of him, a set of stone armor suddenly appeared around his body, and with a “ding” sound, the spiral light arrow struck the armor and shattered.

“Boulder’s Armor, this is the Boulder’s Armor. Brother Lang has mastered it, this is the third spirit art.”

Seeing this, Liu Lichang was slightly stunned. He sneered and said, “I don’t believe that your armor can block all the spiral light arrows!”

After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and shot another three spiral light arrows at Yang Qinlang from different directions.

Yang Qinlang pointed out two fingers consecutively, but the Stone Element Finger only annihilated two light arrows. The third light arrow, which was installed on the armor, did not injure him, but the huge force of the impact caused his chest to feel stuffy and she could not help but stagger backwards.

“Hehe, the core disciples of the Yang family are only so, and aren’t they beaten tulp by a village cultivator like Liu. I can see that your Yang family is plotting to make me suffer, could it be that you are afraid that I will become one of the elite disciples of the Madame Yang, and that I will overshadow all of you in the future?”

Liu Lichang knew that he would not be able to escape today, so he started to speak nonsense to discredit the Yang family. This kind of nonsense would often be spread widely, and had a negative impact on Madame Yang’s reputation.

Although Yang Qinlang seemed to be at a disadvantage, the truth was that the door was actually extremely tightly guarded. The various mystical and spirit rank defensive skills that were in his possession seemed to be extremely coherent and close, causing the observing Madame Yang cultivators to be dazzled. Even some of the elite disciples who were initially unconvinced with Yang Qinlang’s ability to defend, had no choice but to admit that even if they tried their best, they might not be able to break through Yang Qinlang’s defenses.

However, Yang Qinlang’s strength was already so outstanding, yet she was still suppressed by a cultivator with a similar cultivation level as him. This made people mutter in their hearts, could it be that Liu Lichang had truly provoked the jealousy of the Madame Yang because he was too outstanding?

Yang Qinlang was calm and collected, but she suddenly laughed coldly: “No matter what tricks you have up your sleeves, you still have to run out of tricks!”

After saying that, a bronze mirror suddenly appeared in Yang Qinlang’s hand. She flashed it at Liu Lichang, who was not far away, and a yellow light sprinkled out, covering Liu Lichang who was caught off guard.

“Ahhhhhhhhh!”

When Yang Qinlang took out the copper mirror, Liu Lichang realized that it was not good, but in the end, he was unable to dodge it. The mirror light sprinkled onto his body, and the Spirit Controlling Parasite in his brain instinctively drilled into the depths of his brain, causing that kind of instant pain far surpassing every time he entered or exited the Xishan Village. The mirror light hanging at the entrance of the village suddenly splattered the pain brought about by dozens of people.

“Isn’t that the bronze mirror that the Yang family hung at the village entrance?”

“It is said that this copper mirror is called the Mirror of Flame. It was originally a Middle Grade Spirit Treasure, but it was later upgraded to Superior Grade by the Yang family.”

“High-grade spirit artifact, no wonder, this Yang Qinlang can actually control it?”

“That’s not right, after being exposed to the light of the mirror light, they should either be frozen or trapped in an illusion. They shouldn’t be like Liu Lichang, who is screaming at the top of his lungs.”

“Have you all forgotten why this bronze mirror is hanging at the entrance of Xishan Village? Don’t forget, this Yang Qinlang accused Liu Lichang of not coming from the beginning. ”

“Hiss, could it really be true?”

Just as everyone was whispering to each other, Liu Lichang suddenly roared, and a soft Gu worm that was like a starfish suddenly drilled out from the top of his head, hissing towards the oncoming mirror light.

At the same time, the sound of strange objects appearing in several places on Liu Lichang’s body could be heard. On his exposed palm and neck, there were traces of them moving up and down under the skin, causing one’s scalp to go numb.

“Gu race, this Liu Lichang is a Gu cultivator!”

Some cultivators who had fought against the Alien Cultivator in Lin County immediately recognized Liu Lichang’s identity. Other cultivators might not have seen a Gu cultivator, but they had heard that this strange and mysterious alien race had appeared.

“You forced me to do this!”

Although leaving the country allowed one to see through his identity, it didn’t cause him much harm other than that. Seeing that he couldn’t keep his identity any longer, he decided to use his identity as a Gu cultivator to fight the enemy and bring out his full strength.

“This guy actually has a cultivation level equivalent to the Pure Qi Realm. What a brilliant technique. So it turns out that Brother Lang had always been resisting the attack of a late stage martial arts realm cultivator!”

“The core disciples of the Yang family really live up to their name!”

“I heard that this Gu race has a Vapour Restraining Parasite that can reduce a cultivator’s cultivation by one or two stages, but its strength isn’t really affected much. Looks like this Liu Lichang is just like that.”

Yang Qinlang faced Liu Lichang, who had already become a little demonic, and continued to fight seriously. She used all of the skills that he had trained, and under the rare opportunity of jumping levels to challenge others, she became more mature and stable. This kind of life and death battle was more than ten times more efficient than normal.

Not counting the spells, just the spirit arts could contain the clematis, the Petrification Finger, the magnetic light, the Rock Armour Technique and the Mountain Guarding Spirit Arts. In the entire Madame Yang, it could be said to be one of the few skills that were only available to disciples at the Baleful Qi realm.

Amongst the other three, the magnetic light waure auxiliary ability, and the clematis itself was not famous for its might. Although the Petrification Finger was powerful, it was also monotonous, so Yang Qinlang’s defensive ability was a classic example of a weak attack, and this was in fact, the true portrayal of a Earth Branch cultivator.

However, the following battle might still be exciting, but the surrounding few Adepts’ Spiritual Awareness were no longer of interest.

Just then, Yang Junshan’s consciousness suddenly descended, and conversed with the few Spiritual Masters: “Fellow daoists, do you understand my intention?”

fire valley Dao Master Du was clearly the most anxious, he was the first to ask through his consciousness: “Dao Friend Jun Shan, that means Madame Yang must have had a plan in Huyao County, I wonder how the Gu race is infiltrating?”

“It’s very serious!”

“Almost every town in Huyao County has a chess piece left behind by the Gu Clan. With the help of the human body, the Gu cultivators place the Gu worms inside the bodies of the cultivators and teach them the inheritance of the Gu Clan. Even a guard here is a chess piece secretly developed by the Gu Clan.

The Huyao County was very close to the Lin County, and nearly half of the control area of the Lin County was controlled by the Alien Cultivator, so it was also the area with the most frequent Gu cultivators. Since Gu cultivators could set up a formation in the Huyao County, there was no reason for them to do it in the nearby Yue Yao County, or even Liuhuo County, or Zi Yang County.

It was precisely because Master Du realized the situation that he impatiently asked Yang Junshan about it. Although the cultivators of the other sects were far away from Lin County, the foreign powers were all over the place, who knew if there were any Gu Clan cultivators using Gu worms to scout their own territories.

Furthermore, right after, Yang Junshan revealed another shocking piece of news: “Furthermore, this time, the wolf disaster was raging, the reason why it was extremely difficult for the local cultivators to extinguish it, resulting in a large amount of losses, I’m afraid that there are also Gu cultivators amongst them.”

Ouyang Xulin’s spiritual consciousness transmitted over extremely serious news, “Are you saying that the Gu race and the wolf demon have allied themselves in secret, and that the Gu cultivators hidden among the humans have come down to secretly cooperate with the rampaging wolf demons?”

Yang Junshan paused for a moment, and then used his spiritual consciousness to communicate: “Why is it not a secret communication between Sirius Gate and Gu Clan cultivators?”

All the cultivators were silent.

However, he could do nothing about Yang Qinlang, whose cultivation was one level lower than him. The two sides were exhausted after a battle, and in the end, Liu Lichang was captured by a few of Yang Qinlang’s brothers who joined hands.

After a series of episodes, the fourth round of the elite competition continued. The first six elite disciples quickly decided that Yang Qinghu had defeated Yang Qin Lou, but Wu Chunxi had lost to Yang Qin Yuan, Yang Xin had almost defeated Yang Qin Jie, Su Changan had easily defeated Yang Qin Ren, Feng Yuankun had defeated Ding Rulan, and Chi Fei Fei who had replaced Liu Li Chang was not Yang Qinyan’s match either.

Among the six elite disciples, five of them were Yang’s Diciples s, while the only cultivator with a different surname, Feng Yuankun, was in fact an honorary disciple that the Adept Zhou Yad taken a fancy to. The six eliminated cultivators would then decide that two cultivators would take the seventh and eighth spot in the next round of battles, and would become the elite disciples of this year’s Elite Tournament with the other six disciples.
