Becoming a Saint by Touching Corpses

Chapter 539: Chapter 516: Winds and Clouds Surging

Wang Enning’s face was very displeased, but Chen Changqing’s words made sense, after all, no one forced Huang Xiaodong of the Red Sun Sect.

She looked unhappily at the Li family’s elder.

Huang Xiaodong’s death had a lot to do with Li Donghui, even a direct connection.

The Li family’s elder kept his eyes to himself, avoiding meeting Wang Enning’s gaze, leaving her frustrated.

But speaking of it, isn’t it quite normal for a group of young Qi cultivators to end up slaughtered by a Demon General?

At this moment, everyone’s attention shifted more toward Lou Yi.

A disciple at the eighth level of Qi Cultivation defeating a Demon General without injury, regardless of the Demon General’s condition, is extremely abnormal, akin to a miracle.

Even though they were fighting in the sky, they paid some attention to what was happening below.

Therefore, they roughly saw Lou Yi using an array to kill the Demon General.

The Demon General didn’t even have a complete corpse left at the end!

Meanwhile, in Huai City of the Zhao Kingdom.

In the open space before the City Lord’s Mansion, at the lower part of a white jade stele standing eight zhang, eight chi, eight cun in height, suddenly appeared a line of striking black text:

Seventy-eighth place, Lou Yi.

Soon observers of the stele discovered Lou Yi’s unfamiliar name.

They channeled a stream of spiritual power toward Lou Yi’s name on the stele.

Instantly, some brief information was revealed: Lou Yi, male, twenty-seven years old, eighth level of Qi Cultivation, disciple of the Corpse-Driving Sect, killed an initial-stage Demon General…

This white jade stele is a magical artifact created by the collective efforts of Golden Core Masters from the four sects, with the main artifact stored on the Sect Leader Peak of the Corpse-Driving Sect.

By providing a thread of spiritual power, a cultivator can access some brief information about those on the stele and their reasons for being listed.

Upon seeing Lou Yi’s cultivation, everyone was astounded.

“What is this? An eighth level Qi Cultivator killed a Demon General?” A skeptical onlooker rubbed his eyes incredulously.

“This world is too crazy, how could it be possible!”

“Wasn’t there an elder who severely injured the Demon General, then let him land the final blow?”

It’s no wonder people didn’t believe it.

For a Qi cultivator to cross levels and kill a Foundation Establishment cultivator or Demon General, the last time this happened was eight or nine hundred years ago.

The one who achieved this feat later formed a Golden Core and became a renowned giant in the Cultivation Realm.

Though many doubted, there were also several who supported Lou Yi.

After all, the stele was a work of the Golden Core Masters from the four major sects: Corpse-Driving Sect, Red Sun Sect, True Blood Sect, and Qingluan Palace, and it was unlikely to be wrong.

Regardless, Lou Yi became the first Qi cultivator to appear on the stele, creating history!

His feat of defeating a Demon General from below has truly made his name spread far and wide, across the four countries of the Northern Domain in Central Continent.

Corpse-Driving Sect, Sect Leader Peak.

He Xiang attended the Elder Council as usual, only to find that the elders’ eyes in the grand hall were ’swooshing’ toward him.

“What’s going on, did something grow on my face?” He Xiang wondered.

Then he heard an elder say, “Congratulations, Elder He.”

“What for?”

“Oh, you don’t know? Your disciple made it onto the stele.”

“What? One of my disciples broke through to the Foundation Establishment?”

“No, it was with Qi cultivation, just that one named Lou Yi…” explained an elder.

Soon Elder He knew of Lou Yi’s magnificent achievement, and his eyes widened roundly, completely in disbelief.

But when he heard words around like ’With Qi cultivation able to defeat a Demon General, upon breaking through to Foundation Establishment, surely unbeatable at the same level’ ’Elder He has a remarkable disciple’ ’We’re truly envious,’ and the like…

His mouth started to grin widely, hard to close.

True Blood Sect, in a certain sect garden.

“Junior sister, this is the Three-Life Flower I asked someone to bring from Qi Kingdom.

It’s said if you make a wish before it, it’ll come true in the next life.”

A robust, radiant young man holding a delicate black wooden box said to a tall, fiery-haired, beautiful woman.

“I only want to be invincible in this life, what’s the use of being strong in the next?” the fiery-haired woman replied bluntly.

Leaving the presenting young man a bit dumbfounded and unsure of what to do next.

“Sister, sister!”

At this moment, a voice filled with excitement came, and a handsome man with equally fiery hair burst in.

“Fussing around, you’re getting older, can’t you show some composure?” the woman said displeased.

“No, do you know, Brother Shu made it onto the stele!”

“What?”

“Corpse-Driving Sect’s disciple Lou Yi, defeating a Demon General with eighth level Qi cultivation, creating a nearly thousand-year history in Central Continent’s Northern Domain!”

“I knew Brother Shu could always do what others couldn’t,” the red-haired female cultivator said with a beam.

Then she excitedly ran off with her brother, leaving the gift-promising ’Senior Brother Jie’ behind.

“Qi… defeating a Demon General?!” The young man referred to as ’Senior Brother Jie’ had a momentary flicker of dimness in his eyes, “No wonder Junior Sister Shi doesn’t fancy me…”

Yellow Springs Sect.

“Your Highness, here is the latest dispatch.”

A man dressed in black robes, wearing a ghost mask, hair partly white, with a strong presence, respectfully handed a yellow wooden slip forward.

In front of him was a dense curtain of white pearls, with a graceful silhouette faintly visible inside.

But the masked man kept his head lowered, showing solemn reverence and respect.

After a moment, a jade-like white soft hand reached out, took the dispatch, and began to read.

“The demon clan at Cyan Wolf Ridge has been struggling recently…”

“The Sect Leader of Immeasurable Sword Sect and several Golden Cores within the sect have disappeared, suspected of having discovered something new in the Cloud Sea Realm…”

“Corpse-Driving Sect’s True Disciple Lou Yi, with eighth level Qi cultivation, assisted by an array, defeated the severely injured initial-stage Demon General Hyena Demon, remaining unscathed himself?”

The murmurs inside the pearl curtain ceased, evidently deep in thought.

Pan City, lakeside inn.

The bright moon hung high.

A stunning woman dressed in white nightwear, barefoot, walked from her room to the lake, quietly watching the gently rippling lake surface, listening to the ’shasha’ sound of the wind.

“Lou Yi, even more formidable than imagined, able to cross realms to defeat a Demon General.

His array cultivation must have reached a state of perfection.”

“Didn’t he say before he wanted a messenger talisman from me? Why hasn’t he acted, is he playing a trick on me…”

A slightly aggrieved and puzzled voice drifted over the lake.

Lou Yi’s feat of making it onto the stele with Qi cultivation soon spread across Central Continent’s Northern Domain, causing a great stir.

Various sects were about to launch a secret investigation on him.

But soon another major event drew everyone’s attention away.

Top of the stele, True Blood Sect’s prodigy Jin Tingfeng issued a challenge to the top expert of the demon clan, Green Goat Demon.

Both sides are set for a life-and-death battle outside Pan City in seven days!

This battle could very well alter the current course of human-demon conflict, being the focus of tens of thousands.

Upon hearing the news, the cultivation realm across Central Continent’s Northern Domain swirled with activity, as countless cultivators rushed to Pan City.
