“Senior Sister.”
Qi Ming’s expression was a little worried. Thinking back to the scene of his senior sister sacrificing herself to save him, he was a little touched.
If not for Senior Sister Lü Qingyan saving him with her life, Qi Ming would probably be in danger now.
Boom! Boom!
Roar!
At this moment, Qi Ming heard strange movements and beast roars not far away. There were traces of demon beasts. He did not have the time to continue grieving.
One had to know, through the avatar of the Heaven Enlightenment Mirror, Qi Ming not only saw an extremely large number of demon beasts disrupting the Heaven Enlightenment Assembly and killing a large number of participants, but he also discovered traces of demonic cultivators and itinerant cultivators.
The situation was getting more and more chaotic.
“Come out.”
Buzz! Buzz!
With a thought, Qi Ming waved his right hand and summoned the Greater Bat Demon and Huo Changqing. They stood in front of Qi Ming.
“Master.” Huo Changqing bowed.
“Mm.” Qi Ming nodded. “Prepare for battle.”
“Yes.” Huo Changqing replied.
“Run!”
In front, Qi Ming saw two familiar figures running wildly in the dense forest. When they approached, Qi Ming saw that they were Yuan Feng and Su Qingyin.
Behind them, there were several demon beasts.
“They’re lucky.” Qi Ming said, “They happened to encounter me.”
“Sister Yuan.” Su Qingyin shouted, “There’s someone in front.”
“Ignore him.” Yuan Fengjiao shouted, “Let’s escape quickly. Those few demon beasts behind are not even a Connate martial artist’s match. Unless a true cultivator comes, they will definitely die.”
“Mm.” Su Qingyin nodded.
While they were talking, they had already fled to Qi Ming.
Then, the two figures passed each other.
“He…”
Yuan Feng ran a few steps and could not help but turn back to take a look. She saw that the other party was standing on the spot without moving like a statue. Yuan Feng could not help but roar, “Are you scared silly? Run! That’s a demon beast. We’re only mortals. We haven’t stepped onto the path of cultivation at all. We’ll be killed by demon beasts.”
Clang! Clang!
Qi Ming raised his head and saw several demon beasts rushing over. Their speed was not slow, but with a thought, he circulated his cultivation technique and his spirit energy transformed into a green sword qi that slashed out.
Pu! Pu! Pu!
Blood splattered.
In an instant, the demon beasts that pounced over were all killed. Their heads were cut off, and their bodies crashed to the ground, causing dust to spray.
They were all easily killed.
“He… he…” Su Qingyin’s beautiful eyes widened as her jade-like hand covered her red lips, her face filled with shock, “Dead! Those demon beasts are all dead! They were all killed!”
“Gasp…”
Yuan Feng gasped as she quickly reacted. Without any hesitation, she directly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Qi Ming, “I’m Yuan Feng, a participant of the Heaven Enlightenment Assembly. Thank you for saving my life, Senior. I was blind and did not know that Senior was here. I hope Senior can forgive me for my words earlier.”
“Sister Yuan…”
Su Qingyin was stunned for a moment. She also reacted and knelt down with Yuan Feng. She kowtowed to Qi Ming, “Junior Su Qingyin kowtows to Senior for saving our lives.”
“Mm.” Qi Ming turned around and looked at Yuan Feng and Su Qingyin, “Yuan Feng, Su Qingyin, one is the princess of the Yuan Sheng Empire, and the other is the princess’ maidservant.”
“I saw your performance in the Spirit Cloud Mystic Realm and the Spirit Enlightenment Mystic Realm previously. Your performance was not bad.”
“So it’s a senior from the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.”
Yuan Feng was overjoyed, “Senior, you praise me too much. I’m far inferior to Sister Qingyin.”
“No, no.” Su Qingyin quickly waved her hand and said, “If not for Sister Yuan, I might have died long ago.”
Roar! Roar! Roar!
In the surroundings, Qi Ming heard more and more beast roars. These were a large number of demon beasts and ferocious beasts. They formed groups and surrounded them.
Not only that, Qi Ming also heard the screams of many participants.
“Evil beasts.”
Qi Ming’s gaze was cold as his killing intent rose, “Yuan Feng, Su Qingyin, the two of you follow me for the time being. Don’t go anywhere.”
“Now, not only are there demon beasts and ferocious beasts, but also demonic cultivators and itinerant cultivators have infiltrated. If you walk around randomly, the danger is too great.”
“Yes.” Yuan Feng was overjoyed, “Thank you, Senior.”
“Thank you, Senior.” Su Qingyin also said.
“Get up and follow me closely.” Qi Ming said.
“Yes.” Yuan Feng and Su Qingyin looked at each other and immediately stood up from the ground. Then, they followed behind Qi Ming and quickly left.
Qi Ming naturally did not plan to return to Heaven Enlightenment City. Moreover, the ability of the Heaven Enlightenment Mirror Avatar was sealed by the supreme power of the Dragon Alligator. It was impossible to teleport.
Qi Ming planned to slaughter those demon beasts and ferocious beasts.
At the same time, he also planned to kill those demonic cultivators and itinerant cultivators.
No matter what, these demonic cultivators and itinerant cultivators more or less had a lot of spirit stones and resources. Hunting them would be a considerable amount of income.
Moreover, Qi Ming controlled the avatar of the Heaven Enlightenment Mirror. Although most of the abilities were restricted, Qi Ming could still observe the situation in the Heaven Enlightenment Assembly through the avatar.
He could find those demonic cultivators and itinerant cultivators.
Not long after, Qi Ming encountered a wave of demon beasts. There were a lot of them, reaching the level of more than a thousand. Most of them were at the Qi Refinement realm. The number of demon beasts at the Foundation Establishment realm could be counted on one hand.
The demon beasts surrounded and killed tens of thousands of participants.
The scene was miserable.
He only took a glance and his killing intent soared.
“All of you deserve to die.” Qi Ming’s gaze was cold.
“Blood Fiend Evil Ghost, Greater Bat Demon.”
Swish! Swish!
Qi Ming sent two subordinates.
“Hehehe…”
The evil ghost let out sinister laughter and rushed into the demon beasts. It launched a killing calamity and sucked the demon beasts into dried corpses.
Roar!
The Greater Bat Demon released a sound wave spell. The ultrasonic wave directly shattered the heads of many demon beasts.
“Die!”
Clang! Clang! Clang!!!
Qi Ming pointed with his right hand and circulated the Chaos Green Lotus Sword Scripture. His spirit energy transformed into an incomparably sharp sword qi that easily pierced through the heads of those Foundation Establishment demon beasts and killed them all.
Then, the Blood Fiend Evil Ghost was swallowing the corpses of these demon beasts. The fiendish energy and ghost energy on its body were getting heavier and heavier, and it was about to break through to the mid-stage Foundation Establishment realm.
“Ghost… Ghost!!”
“There’s a ghost!”
” An evil ghost!”
“…”
Terrified screams resounded.
The participants who survived the demon beasts’ mouths were greatly frightened by the Blood Fiend Evil Ghost. Their expressions were filled with panic and horror.
“Calm down! Everyone calm down!”
“It was this senior who saved us!”
“Senior, you’re a good person.”
“…”
However, there were also people shouting.
“Is… is he really a senior of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect?”
Su Qingyin swallowed her saliva. Her clear eyes looked at Qi Ming’s back and were a little uncertain, “The Heaven Enlightenment Sect is the head of the Southern Region’s righteous sects, but this senior actually controls a ghost.”
“Qingyin.” Yuan Feng frowned and shouted softly, “Don’t talk nonsense. If we provoke Senior, all of us won’t be able to survive. Moreover, in my opinion, methods and spells are not divided into righteous and demonic. Only the cultivators themselves are divided into righteous and demonic.”
“Follow me.” Qi Ming turned around and glanced at Yuan Feng and Su Qingyin.
“Yes.”
“Yes.”
Yuan Feng and Su Qingyin jolted and quickly responded before quickly following.
No matter what, Su Qingyin was a legacy seedling after all, so Qi Ming gave her some preferential treatment. Although Yuan Feng’s talent was far inferior to Su Qingyin’s, her performance could be considered to have caught Qi Ming’s attention.
Therefore, Qi Ming brought them along.
As for the others, it was already their great fortune that Qi Ming could save them from the mouths of demon beasts. It was impossible for him to protect them like a nanny. They could naturally rely on their own efforts.
“Everyone, don’t worry.” Before leaving, Qi Ming still said to the participants, “Although it was an unexpected event this time, everything is under the control of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.”
“This rebellion will soon be suppressed.”
“Before that, find a place to hide and wait for the riot to end.”
“Yes, Senior.”
“Thank you for saving my life, Senior.”
“Senior, what about the Heaven Enlightenment Assembly? What about the next assessment?”
“Senior… Senior…”
Everyone kowtowed and thanked him before shouting again.
However, Qi Ming ignored them and had already left with Yuan Feng and Su Qingyin. His figure disappeared from their fields of vision, and the remaining participants were a little upset that they could not follow Qi Ming.
“Don’t you find this senior’s voice a little familiar?”
“Is it familiar?”
“Now that you mention it, it does sound familiar.”
“I… I remember now!”
“The host of the Heaven Enlightenment Assembly, his voice is identical to that of the Green Cloud Peak’s legacy disciple. That’s right, it’s him, it’s him. It must be him, it’s his voice.”
“Could this senior really be the legacy disciple of Green Cloud Peak?!”
“This… this…”
Everyone was shocked and delighted. They were extremely shocked, unable to calm down for a long time.
Time passed.
Qi Ming continued forward and slaughtered a large number of demon beasts and ferocious beasts. The Blood Fiend Evil Ghost had absorbed a large amount of flesh and blood essence and had already risen to the mid-stage Foundation Establishment realm.
Yuan Feng and Su Qingyin had witnessed Qi Ming’s strength along the way. Those powerful demon beasts were as weak as ants in Qi Ming’s hands.
It was too powerful.
“One day, I will also become as powerful as him.”
Su Qingyin’s heart burned with flames.
“Is this the power of cultivators?”
Yuan Feng took a deep breath. “No wonder Father and the others did not dare to disobey the Heaven Enlightenment Sect at all. However, the orders of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect are that in front of such strength, the imperial army of martial artists is completely vulnerable.”
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!!!
At this moment, Qi Ming encountered demonic cultivators.
There were a total of three.
Two men and a woman blocked Qi Ming’s path.
“Hehehe…”
“Blood Lady, we’ve found the target.”
“The legacy disciple of Green Cloud Peak, Qi Ming.”
“The reward for the Black Lotus Demon Lord’s mission this time will belong to us.”
The three demonic cultivators stared at Qi Ming.
Many of these demonic cultivators and itinerant cultivators who had infiltrated had accepted the bounty mission of the Black Lotus Demon Lord. They had taken the risk to come here to kill Qi Ming.
“How did you know that I would participate in this Heaven Enlightenment Assembly?”
Qi Ming looked straight at the other party and asked in a deep voice, “Where did you obtain the news?”
“Hehehe…”
“Go to hell and ask King Yama.”
“Attack!”
The three demonic cultivators did not want to answer Qi Ming’s question at all. As soon as their voices fell, they directly attacked Qi Ming, and spells attacked..
