"Wait! Wait! Don't kill me!"

Jiang Li stepped on the other party's body, and his two hands grabbed the two ends of the Dragon Imprisoning Lock as he continuously tightened the chains binding the other party.

Under the terrifying suppression of the Dragon Imprisoning Lock, the strength and spiritual qi of this famous demonic cultivator who was at the Core Formation realm and had killed countless people were suppressed to the lowest level.

Only the firm Dao Body of the Core Formation realm was left holding on bitterly.

However, without the support of spiritual qi, how could his Dao Body resist Jiang Li's brute force?

The pitch-black chain tightened under the friction of the metal buckles.

The cracking sounds of bones breaking could be heard non-stop. The broken bones continuously pierced into his chest, causing his internal organs to bleed.

Turbid blood foam spewed out from his mouth and nose like a fountain.

"Mi… Miss… In the end… this old servant… still couldn't find you…"

After saying this sentence in a muffled voice, the male devil died.

If not for the fact that Jiang Li's ears were augmented by the Bodhisattva Heart Sutra and could hear subtle sounds in the world and distinguish the voices of all things, no one would have heard him clearly.

However, "Miss"? This guy was about to die. Shouldn't he be thinking about his female devil? It seemed that he was a frivolous person after all.

Jiang Li suddenly pulled the Dragon Imprisoning Lock, and the dead corpse instantly shattered into pieces. A gray True Core was rolled out and into Jiang Li's hand.

This True Core looked ordinary, and there were clearly many stains on its surface.

Demonic cultivation methods were famous for their rapid advancement in cultivation, being bloodthirsty and evil. However, in contrast, it was very easy to have an unstable foundation.

Presumably, something had happened to this guy when he was at the Foundation Establishment realm or the Core Formation realm. With this True Core, this guy would never be able to reach the Golden Core realm in his life.

Jiang Li casually wrapped the True Core with a few black talismans and stuffed it into his storage bag.

After dealing with the enemies here, the first thing he wanted to do was naturally to help his senior brother. He looked around and quickly found the burly figure of the other party.

However, at this moment, he seemed to be in a sorry state.

Senior Brother Xiang Yuanba and the female devil were both at the True Core stage. He had obtained the true teachings of their master, Elder He, so his strength should be clearly superior to the other party.

Unfortunately, since ancient times, body cultivators were unlucky. Not long after he fought with his opponent, he collided with another Core Formation demonic cultivator. After receiving the combined attacks of the two, he fell into a disadvantage.

"Benefactor Xiang, don't worry about me. Leave quickly!"

Xiang Yuanba assumed a defensive posture and stood firmly on the spot. On the ground behind him, there was a bald head planted on the ground like a radish.

That guy with a bald head was as handsome as Jiang Li. Even without hair, he was terribly handsome.

It was Jiang Li's old friend, Master Le Yuan who cultivated the Palm Meditation Technique.

Senior Brother Xiang had discovered that Master Le Yuan was in danger, so he stepped forward and stood in front of him. This was why he was attacked by two Core Formation cultivators.

As the disciple of Elder He, how could the hot-blooded body cultivator, Senior Brother Xiang, run away because of this?

Wounds soon appeared on his body. Senior Brother Xiang was not like Jiang Li who had the Innocuous Overlord Body. Although his defense was also very strong, he was unable to ignore the attacks of experts of the same level.

Even with his strong body, he was quickly covered in injuries.

However, at this moment, a pitch-black chain silently swam over while sticking to the ground. The shackles on one end locked onto his ankle with a crack.

This familiar feeling stunned Xiang Yuanba, and then his face curved slightly.

He took a few steps back and distanced himself from the two cultivators who were constantly attacking.

The chains binding his feet rustled. When the two demonic cultivators saw this, they thought that another companion had come to help and locked down the other party.

"Haha, what's wrong, kid? Are you going to abandon this guy and escape? Unfortunately, it's already too late!"

However, Xiang Yuanba did not care about their mockery. In his mind, he counted three, two, one, and then his shackled right foot suddenly kicked!

Clang!

The pitch-black chain instantly tightened, and a similarly terrifying force came from the other end of the chain at the same time.

The two forces interacted. The taut chain did not move, but it pulled at his entire body. He shot forward like a cannonball, waving his iron fists as he pounced at the two demonic cultivators.

When the two demonic cultivators saw that he still dared to step forward, they were slightly surprised. However, before they could make a move to face the enemy, another explosive sound tore through the sky from behind them. It was Jiang Li who had tied the other end of the Dragon Imprisoning Lock to his feet!

Under the circumstances of being locked by the Dragon Imprisoning Lock, fighting with demon beasts was the first lesson of Elder He's disciples.

The cold feeling of the Dragon Imprisoning Lock was extremely familiar to them. Many senior brothers and sisters even said that they could only unleash their strongest strength when they were bound by it.

On this point, as his senior brother, Xiang Yuanba was naturally no exception.

Therefore, when Jiang Li used the Dragon Imprisoning Lock to tie Senior Brother Xiang's ankle, the other party instantly understood his intention.

Under the immense force of each other, the two figures quickly approached the center, sandwiching the two Core Formation cultivators who had yet to react.

Under unexpected situations, the consequences of being suppressed by a body cultivator of the same level were often unthinkable.

It was like a storm! It was like a series of explosions!

Dense fists carried the power to split mountains and crack rocks. They attacked from the front and back, pouring crazily on the two Core Formation cultivators.

The defensive spiritual light on their bodies was squeezed to the limit. Then, like two balloons, they could not withstand the excessive pressure and shattered.

Then, their fists struck flesh, each strike drawing blood. The two Core Formation cultivators were squeezed in the middle as if they were stuck in quicksand. They were unable to resist or escape.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths…

It was not until ten breaths later that the two people who had dealt the vast amount of damage stopped. As for the two people sandwiched between them, they had already turned into a ball. Their lumps of flesh could no longer be differentiated and they were truly dead.

"Senior Brother, Master Le Yuan, are you alright?"

Jiang Li reached into the ground and grabbed Master Le Yuan's shoulder, slowly pulling him out.

"I'm fine. Thank you for saving me. I can't thank you enough."

After Master Le Yuan escaped, he immediately bowed and thanked him.

Logically speaking, Jiang Li and his senior brother should have helped him up politely at this moment.

However, after a long time, they did not move.

Master Le Yuan raised his head and discovered that Jiang Li and the other party were looking behind him with serious expressions.

Turning around, even the composed Master Le Yuan could not help but gasp.

10 Hundred Tempering Mountain warships approached them quickly. With their eyesight, they could even see the crowd of cultivators on the ship.

It was obvious that they were not here to help.

"What… what… what should we do?"

When Master Le Yuan saw that the Benevolent Travel Temple had encountered such a calamity, his mind was already in a mess. At this moment, seeing the flying ship attack, he was completely flustered.

"The grand formation of the Benevolent Travel Temple is still here. They should not be able to attack so easily."

It was unknown if Senior Brother Xiang wanted to comfort himself or Le Yuan, but he said this.

However, just as he finished speaking, the three Buddhist pagodas in the other three directions of Benevolent Travel Temple collapsed. The golden light that enveloped the Benevolent Travel Temple flickered twice and quickly dimmed.

The intensity of the light was only about 30-40% left.

Clearly, there were demonic cultivators who were prepared and targeted them. They had destroyed the nodes of the array. Now, only the uninhabited Relic Buddha Pagoda was supporting the array.

"What about Benevolent Travel Temple's flying ship? We'll use the warships to counterattack. They only have ten warships, so we have an advantage."

However, Senior Brother Xiang's mouth seemed to be cursed. Two seconds later, a shocking explosion sounded from the distant spaceport of Benevolent Travel Temple, and a surging poisonous fog surged into the sky.

Jiang Li immediately recalled the half of the people who had disappeared from the Hundred Tempering Mountain. Clearly, they had not been idle and directly found an opportunity to blow up the empty spaceport.

"We still have…"

Senior Brother Xiang wanted to continue, but Jiang Li hurriedly stopped him. If he continued, it would be terrible.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

At this moment, the ten flying ships opened fire from afar. Terrifying spiritual qi pillars began to bombard the Benevolent Travel Temple's defensive array continuously.

Due to the damage to the vital nodes, the array formation's power decreased greatly. Under the bombardment of the spiritual qi pillar, it began to fluctuate violently. It was unknown how long this array formation could last.

Jiang Li and the others were helpless towards this. At this moment, they could only pray that the three elders who were still madly attacking the black lotus platform in the sky would be able to quickly free the six Divine Monks.

However, the lotus platform was indeed a top-notch demonic treasure. It seemed to have a mysterious ability to transfer chaotic spiritual qi and attack. When they bombarded the lotus platform, most of the power would be transferred to the six Divine Monks inside.

The six people inside were the same. When they bombarded the lotus platform, the terrifying power would uncontrollably transfer to their fellow disciples.

Under such circumstances, they were unable to attack with their full strength.

Just as the situation was precarious, the door of the Relic Buddha Pagoda, which was enveloped by the poisonous fog in the center of the battlefield, was suddenly opened.

The Abbot of the Benevolent Travel Temple walked out.

With one hand, he carried the lifeless monk Kong'e, dragging out a trail of scarlet blood.

Clearly, the realm above the Nascent Soul realm was not so easy to deal with.

Even if he was ambushed and heavily injured, a Nascent Soul cultivator could not kill him so easily.

However, that sneak attack was indeed too vicious. Abbot Le Ku had paid a rather terrifying price.

At this moment, he still had the black vajra piercing through his chest. Blood was still flowing out from the wound.

His left hand pressed on his chest, having already completely dried up like a rotting tree branch, not having the slightest vitality.

His eyes were also empty. His original eyeballs were no longer there. He had probably lost his sight forever.

Abbot Le Ku used the Buddhist secret technique, Sacrificial Meditation, to sacrifice his left hand and eyes. Only then did he eliminate the chaotic energy that invaded his body and kill the traitor Monk Kong'e.

He threw the corpse of Monk Kong'e to the side. A black ring rolled out of the corpse and landed on the side without any presence.

Abbot Le Ku opened his remaining right hand, revealing six golden beads.

"Those are relics!"

Separated by a circle of poisonous fog, the scene inside was actually not very vivid, but Master Le Yuan still recognized it at first glance.

Abbot Le Ku quickly chanted the scripture. Then, a golden light shot out from his hand and struck the black lotus.

The black lotus that had originally endured the attacks of many top-notch cultivators suddenly trembled violently.

Jiang Li and the others and the three Nascent Souls flying in the sky were extremely excited when they saw this. As long as they could release the six Divine Monks, the Benevolent Travel Temple would be safe.

Then, the second, third, fourth, and fifth!

The Buddhist holy relics landed on the black lotus one after another. In the core of the black lotus, a golden light gradually appeared!

It turned out that Benevolent Travel Temple's 200 years of hard work had not been in vain!

The large amount of Buddhist power that poured into the lotus platform did not disappear. It was only suppressed to the deepest part of the lotus platform by the demonic qi.

At this moment, with the help of the relic, the Buddhist force in the lotus platform began to gradually gain the upper hand!

As long as the last relic was in place, there was a high chance that the damned lotus platform would become purified again!

"Amitabha! Six Clarity!"

Abbot Le Ku used the Six Clarity Incantation to shoot the last relic.

The Buddhist holy artifact transformed into a stream of light that shot towards the black lotus floating above the Relic Pagoda.

Slam!

However, the key to saving the Benevolent Travel Temple was blocked by a large hand shrouded in black fog.

Everyone present was shocked! Where did this fellow come from?

It turned out that an opening that could allow one person to pass through had appeared on the array formation membrane that was continuously attacked by the warship's cannon fire!

This demonic cultivator had entered through the gap made with the warship's spirit cannon.

Ssss!

The hand was pierced by the golden light of the relic, producing a violent reaction like pouring cold water into a pot of oil.

A piece of the black fog was cleared by the relic's golden light, revealing a crimson palm that did not look human.

On the wrist of that palm, Jiang Li clearly saw a simple and strange black lotus pattern!

Jiang Li suddenly realized that this was the black lotus mark he had seen in the underground ruins of the Black Lotus Divine Sect!

In that case, wasn't this lotus platform the super demonic artifact recorded in the Scripture Storage Valley's records?

The Benevolent Travel Temple actually did not destroy it. Instead, they tried to refine it into a Buddhist treasure.

No wonder this Buddhist treasure was demonized so easily. It turned out that it was a top demonic artifact in the history of the Great Mountain Region.

"Buddhists are really annoying. You six old fellows should stay inside obediently."

The person in the black fog held the relic in one hand and raised his other hand to press on the huge black lotus.

Immediately, the trembling black lotus suddenly stabilized. This black fog demonic cultivator was a remnant of the Black Lotus Divine Sect back then. He still had the method to control this demonic lotus.

Abbot Le Ku and the three Nascent Soul realm cultivators hurriedly stopped him.

However, it was already too late. A black circle of light spread out from the demonic lotus and quickly spread out.

Wherever the light circle passed, everything would wither.

The corpse of Kong'e that had fallen not far away from the black lotus began to turn black and decay at a speed visible to the naked eye. Before long, all that was left was bones and dirty pus.

That was the corpse of a Nascent Soul cultivator. Even if it was not preserved, it would not rot easily for eight to ten years. However, under the black circle of light, it only took a few seconds to decay completely. It could be seen how powerful the circle of light was.

Furthermore, the black light spread at an extremely fast speed. If they did not stop it, it would probably envelop the entire Benevolent Travel Temple in less than ten minutes.

At that time, no more than ten people in Benevolent Travel Temple would be able to survive!

"Damn the Black Lotus survivors! Hand over the relic!"

In the sky, the Abbot and the three Nascent Soul realm cultivators attacked the other party crazily.

However, Le Ku was already heavily injured and did not have his left hand or eyes. It was only with the help of three Nascent Souls that he could barely fight evenly with his opponent. It was easier said than done to defeat his opponent and take back the relic in a short period of time!

"Hahaha, you bald donkeys, you've taken my Divine Sect's sacred artifact for more than 200 years! Today is the day you pay the price!"

"Let's use the top disciple of the Benevolent Travel Temple as a sacrifice and let our sect's sacred lotus regain its former glory!"
