Chapter 340: The sound of footsteps

Translator: 549690339

The purple plum sect’s forefather’s face was gloomy, and his eyes narrowed. The snake demon had already taken human form, so it was fine.

Before his eyes, two mere foundation building juniors actually dared to attack him first?

Could it be that the old ancestor had rarely come to Zimei mountain and was being bullied by these young people?

The anger in his heart rose, and he immediately struck out with his palm!

His mana was as vast as a rainbow or a Python, forming an illusionary giant palm in the air, which enveloped Li Yanling and PEI Ling.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh … Before the giant palm landed, a strong wind had already swept up from the flat ground, causing the flourishing dense Willows around them to sway from side to side!

Several short shrubs were almost completely stuck to the ground, unable to withstand the pressure.

Patriarch violet plum laughed coldly in his heart. He was a dignified core formation cultivator, and although he hadn’t used his full power in this palm strike, it was still enough to annihilate all of The Paper Men.

Just the residual power of the palm energy was not something these two juniors who dared to offend him could bear.

He would search their souls later to see if these two …

However, he did not stop …

Bang Bang Bang!

The Paper men at the front suddenly raised paper shields. Crack! Crack! The shields connected and formed a barrier. Although it trembled, it still blocked purple plum Blossom’s palm energy!

Then, a dark green paper man holding a long knife spun in the wind and suddenly appeared next to purple Plum’s forefather. The paper knife suddenly cut down.

Pfft.

The dull sound of a sharp blade cutting into flesh was heard.

The purple plum blossom elder dodged the attack in the nick of time, but the speed of the paper man’s attack was far faster than he had expected. A deep wound appeared on his arm, which could not be damaged by ordinary magic tools after he formed his core!

Moreover, the blood that was flowing out of the wound was a strange green color.

If he had been in the front hall just now, he would have known that this color was exactly the same as the poisonous mist that mistress cloud had spat out when she transformed into a snake!

Patriarch violet Plum’s pupils constricted. Foundation establishment fighting core formation ….

Not good!

This junior was a chosen of the nine great sects!

His heart trembled as he saw a sword-wielding paper figurine making a hand seal and stabbing a sword towards his heart. He immediately didn’t dare to be careless and hurriedly took out a fist-sized Crystal Pearl.

This was his magic item, the thousand rivers Pearl, which was refined from many spiritual Springs.

Originally, when he reached the core formation realm, he should use his Dharma Treasure.

However, the nine great sects dominated the world, and ordinary sects didn’t even dare to breathe loudly. Rogue cultivators like purple plum blossom elder and Madam sang, for various reasons, couldn’t join any sects, and their lives were even more difficult.

Even if they had already formed their Aurous cores, they were only mixed Aurous cores. For daily use, they could only be slightly reserved in front of Qi cultivating and foundation building cultivators. Compared to the disciples of sects, they were very embarrassed.

It could be said that only one or two out of ten core formation cultivators could own one magic treasure.

Moreover, this magic treasure might not be compatible with his own cultivation technique and spell technique.

Even so, it was enough to make people envious among the wandering cultivators.

This was why even though the purple plum sect’s forefather had entered the core formation stage many years ago, he still had to use a Foundation establishment magic item in battle.

At this moment, he activated the thousand rivers Pearl. The Pearl glowed and a thin water curtain formed around him.

Puchi!

The paper sword pierced into the water curtain, and as if it had fallen into a quagmire, its speed instantly became very slow.

The attack was easily dodged by the forefather.

However, there was no joy in his heart. Instead, he was filled with resentment. His eyes swept over the paper sword and he saw that it seemed to be made from an ordinary folded piece of paper. However, it was able to pierce through the protection of his magic artifact that was activated by his core formation stage mana and was driven by a foundation building junior. It could be seen how precious the material of this paper sword was!

And this was just one of Li Yanling’s many paper men, paper armor, and paper weapons.

Although this junior was only at the foundation building stage, in terms of wealth, even if he and Madam sang were tied up, they would still be in the dust!

In their hearts, they cursed the nine great sects for not caring about their own lives. For tens of thousands of years, they had suppressed the world and provided for themselves, but they did not care about the lives of the itinerant cultivators!

Purple plum blossom elder’s face was as calm as water. The thousand rivers Pearl flashed, and several water arrows appeared out of thin air, quickly shooting toward Li Yanling!

At the same time, a Paper Spear also stabbed into the water curtain!

This was only the beginning. Immediately after, countless paper knives, Spears, swords, and halberds swarmed forward …

???

The pengya temple had a total of three halls.

At this moment, in the middle hall.

Mistress cloud carried kou sanlang, who had yet to wake up, and carefully examined her lover’s condition.

After a long while, she heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, San lang was fine.

Her expression tightened as she stood up with kou sanlang in her arms.

There were already three powerful cultivators in this Taoist temple. He had to leave quickly!

Just as he was thinking about this, the sounds of a battle suddenly came from the front hall.

Mistress cloud was stunned for a moment before she sneered.

It was most likely that the core formation human cultivator had bumped into the two cunning foundation building cultivators in the front hall and for some reason, they had started fighting.

Since they were surrounded by human cultivators, mistress cloud was happy to see them having a conflict.

The best was to fight until both sides were injured!

If that was the case, she would not need to avoid him and could even take the opportunity to eat a fresh meal!

However, just as mistress cloud was thinking about this, the sound of footsteps suddenly echoed in the hall.

Listening carefully, his steps were steady and hesitant, as if he was an ordinary martial artist approaching with caution.

However, mistress cloud focused her gaze and saw that the main hall was completely empty …

The place where the footsteps came from was empty!

“Who is it?” Mistress cloud’s heart sank as she asked warily.

There was no reply.

After a while, the sound of footsteps gradually disappeared.

Mistress cloud frowned and quickly scanned the entire Hall with her divine sense. She searched inch by inch, not even letting go of the underground.

However, he could not find anything after searching back and forth many times.

The footsteps just now seemed to be an auditory hallucination due to her nervousness.

Something was wrong …

There was something wrong with this middle hall!

No, that’s not right!

The entire temple was abnormal!

Realizing this, mistress cloud immediately wanted to leave this place with her lover.

But at this moment, footsteps could be heard again …

This time, the footsteps were extremely weak, almost non-existent.

If it wasn’t for her core formation cultivation, she wouldn’t have noticed it at all.

And the position he appeared in was right behind her!

Without any hesitation, mistress cloud turned around and spat out a mouthful of poisonous mist!

The poisonous mist hit the empty space. The floor tiles of the middle hall were instantly corroded, and the entire Hall was filled with a fishy and sweet smell.

Mistress cloud spread out her divine sense, but she still could not sense anything.

Just as she was bewildered, an illusionary figure slowly appeared in front of her.

The snake demon’s expression changed. It was another human cultivator!

Furthermore, he was in the core formation stage!
