Qing Ming City.

In the ruins.

Following the instructions given to him, a young man got the item that he wanted.

“The old man at the Starry Sky Pavilion didn’t con me.”

The young man sighed.

Well…

Should he stay or leave?

He knew clearly that the ruins were chaotic at the moment and if he were to acquire profit in times of trouble, he might be able to gain more. However, he would also face greater risks!

Furthermore…

Forget it.

The young man shook his head slightly.

Shush!

He opened his hands and a folded paper plane appeared in his hands.

“Let’s go.”

He let out a breath and threw the plane.

Swoosh!

The paper plane traversed the lights.

Along with the young man, they dissipated into the void.

…

Somewhere.

A teenager was walking through the ruins.

The longbow behind him was shining with splendor.

He knew very well.

The old man instructed him to take the item and leave immediately! This was called finding a huge fortuitous encounter in the moment of life and death! Once he found it, he would have to leave!

The chaotic situation in Qing Ming City was not something that he could get himself involved in.

“I should leave now.”

The teenager got up.

However…

Buzz—

An aura was looming.

The teenager paused in his tracks and he gazed in the direction of the ruins near the Treasure Pavilion. He sighed.

Lu Ming…

Yes.

That was Lu Ming’s aura.

He hesitated.

He owed Lu Ming a favor. Lu Ming had saved his life before…

He had been wanting to repay Lu Ming but he did not expect that he had to return Lu Ming, who was a then two-star at that time, the favor in this place filled with six-stars!

“It’s not easy to return a favor from Lu Ming.”

The teenager sighed.

Shush!

He got up and walked towards the Treasure Pavilion.

No matter how difficult it was, he had to return it!

…

At this very moment…

Among the ruins.

After the collapse of the Restart Array, the ruins were roughly divided into four areas – Treasure Pavilion ruins, Divine Weapon Pavilion ruins, Imperial Beast Pavilion ruins and the Breeze Pavilion ruins.

The Divine Weapon Pavilion ruins were occupied by the police.

The Breeze Pavilion ruins were occupied by the Spiritualists.

The Imperial Beast Pavilion ruins were now filled with spirit beasts.

The Treasure Pavilion ruins…

had become the place that they competed for gains.

Lu Ming told Xiao-Xiaojian to transform into a faint streak of light and secretly lure the others there to fight. He turned this so-called chance encounter into a true battleground!

The ruins of the Treasure Pavilion were now a stretch of blood-red!

Perhaps they could not tell what happened, perhaps they did or perhaps they simply did not care!

Put everyone together?

They were happier that way!

…

Bang!

There was a deafening sound.

Li Jianli killed one of the cultivators. His gaze was cold and aloof. Terrifying energy penetrated everyone opposite him and all the cultivators holding onto divine weapons were not spared.

Pfft!

Pfft!

Blood splattered.

Did these people think that the divine weapons were enough to resist them?

It was ludicrous.

The Spiritualist vocation was very powerful. It far exceeded one’s imagination!

After a long while…

They were the only ones left in the Treasure Pavilion.

“We have won…”

“Yes.”

“The Spiritualist vocation can finally be passed on…”

Li Jianli felt gratified.

Although the process was arduous, the eventual outcome was good.

They had won.

As long as they could finish off the remaining itinerant cultivators and Lu Ming, they would be able to leave this place successfully and then impersonate the cultivators who attained the fortuitous encounters this time. No one would know what happened then!

However…

At this moment.

A strange and mysterious tremor occurred.

“Who is that?!”

Li Jianli and the group were startled.

A distance away.

A familiar voice could be heard.

“Xiaobai?”

“Yes.”

“Bury them.”

“Okay.”

…

Bang!

There were loud booming noises.

Herds of strange and mysterious energy bulls were charging towards them from afar, covering all the areas nearby and drowning the blood-colored Treasure Pavilion area…

Drowned…

Bang!

Bang!

The ground trembled.

The Treasure Pavilion had completely collapsed!

Click!

Click!

The ground collapsed.

Everyone fell into a deep abyss and massive ruins covered the pit…

However…

At this moment.

Many figures were suspended in the air. Sweeping his gaze across, Lu Ming was stunned to discover that it was actually that person possessed by Li Jianli!

Buzz—

Buzz—

There was some breeze.

He led a few people and floated in the air!

Wind element…

Lu Ming squinted his eyes.

They wanted to escape?

It was not going to be that easy!

Shush!

Lu Ming raised and flipped his hand. A plump five-star vocation core appeared in the air above them and suddenly exploded. There was a sudden outburst, causing a huge impact.

Bang!

The person who had just been held up by Li Jianli was dragged underground in that instant.

“Damn it!”

Seeing that something was amiss, the winds surrounding him became turbulent and he rose in the air.

Shush!

He flew into the sky.

He then discovered that the area within a radius of a few hundred meters had already collapsed and he had nowhere to stand. He relied on the power of the wind to float in the air and stabilize himself.

Opposite him…

Lu Ming and the young lady were also suspended in the air and there was radiance beneath their feet.

“Lu Ming!”

“It’s you!”

Li Jianli’s murderous intent increased.

“Hello.

Lu Ming smiled faintly.

“Child!”

Li Jianli was infuriated. “Do you think you can kill them like this?! Even if you demolish Qing Ming City, they will only be trapped inside!”

It was too childish!

What a dumb way of fighting…

It was really…

He was certain that none of the six-stars who fell underground would die!

They could climb out very soon!

What was the point of this?

How could anyone be that childish during combat!

Right then…

He felt that he had been humiliated…

“It’s enough for them to be trapped.”

Lu Ming shrugged.

He never thought of defeating everyone. Right now, since Li Jianli and the group had attained victory, he only needed to beat Li Jianli. That would be enough.

“You are courting death!”

There was a cold glint in Li Jianli’s eyes.

Very well.

Since he and Lu Ming were the only ones left, he would end all of this…

Bang!

Terrifying elemental powers condensed in his body.

As a Spiritualist, obviously, he did not merely possess the wind element. While he kept himself suspended in the air, he could also kill Lu Ming and destroy his soul!

“You’re merely a four-star…”

His murderous intent was obvious.

Bang!

A surge of monstrous powers emerged.

Advanced six-star!

This was Li Jianli’s current level!

Furthermore, the special status of a Spiritualist meant that his combat ability was stronger than the norm! The prowess that he released now had already exceeded the level of an ordinary advanced six-star cultivator!

This was…

Peak six-star!

In his best condition, Li Jianli was actually that powerful!

Bang!

There was an outburst of terrifying auras. In comparison to the peak six-star prowess, Lu Ming was akin to a small boat in the ocean. He was weak and insignificant…

“This guy is actually that powerful?”

Lu Ming had a grave expression on his face.

It seemed that he had to go all out!

Shush!

He took out some cards.

“Prepare to die!”

Li Jianli raised his hand. Along with the powerful force of a Spiritualist, cold and chilling auras smashed towards Lu Ming.

However…

At this moment.

A flash of light suddenly traversed the sky.

Click!

There was a crisp and clear sound.

Cracks appeared on Li Jianli’s Energy Shield.

“Who is that?!”

Li Jianli was enraged.

He could sense that the force was not very powerful. Unexpectedly, besides Lu Ming the nonentity, someone else actually dared to humiliate him in this way!

Shush!

He repaired the cracks instantly.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

A sharp arrow suddenly shot towards the Energy Shield beneath his feet.

He waved his hands and blocked it nonchalantly. Looking at the teenager who appeared not far away, he felt a strong sense of danger just as he wanted to take action.

Swoosh!

The sharp arrow that shot at the Energy Shield was harmless.

However…

In the instant when the sharp arrow dashed towards him, it erupted and all the energy surrounding him was disrupted, especially the wind elements…

“Oh no!”

Li Jianli toppled over and actually fell into the pit.

He vaguely seemed to have heard the teenager’s voice.

“I’m a professional at shooting birds!”

…

“Xia Yu?”

Shocked and surprised, Lu Ming looked at the teenager before his eyes. “Why did you come?”

“Fortuitous encounter.”

Xia Yu patted his long bow.

“Not bad,” Lu Ming marveled.

He could tell at one glance that this longbow was one of the powerful and amazing divine weapons. It was completely unlike the wretched ones used by the cultivators.

After contemplating the situation, he put away his cards.

“Let’s go.

“I reckon that these guys will be out very soon. Let’s leave first,” Lu Ming said.

“Okay.”

Xia Yu nodded slightly.

That place was too dangerous. It was better to leave first.

However…

Just as they were prepared to leave.

“Ahhh—”

A miserable scream could be heard.

Lu Ming’s heart violently skipped a beat. Looking through the crack beneath his feet, he realized that the voice belonged to Li Jianli, who had just fallen into the pit!!!

Had he fallen to his death?

How could this be possible?

Although Xia Yu had destroyed his elemental powers and the latter lost control, Li Jianli was ultimately a six-star Spiritualist. Logically, it was impossible for him to be harmed!

Unless…

“Be careful!”

Lu Ming pulled Xiaobai and moved backwards quickly.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Cold lights flashed.

One by one, black figures started to climb out from the underground pit.

Wielding their divine weapons, they inserted the weapons into the stone walls. Their movements were as swift and agile as apes. They repeatedly crossed the pit several times and finally returned to the ground.

Policemen…

“It’s actually you!”

Lu Ming’s heart sank slightly.

“I should be the one saying this.”

The young man wielding a spear was also very surprised. “I’ve been waiting for the mastermind to appear, waiting for the person who plotted all of this. Never did I expect that… it was you!!!

“It’s very interesting. Isn’t it?”

A cruel smile emerged on the young man’s face. “Don’t tell me that you believe that our brains are as damaged as the people who have slept for a thousand years? Do you think that we can’t understand things?

“Your plan is very childish.

“It’s true.

“You basically wanted to be the fisherman that when the sandpiper and the clam waged a war against each other, caught both.

“Unfortunately, you overlooked something. I’ve arranged a task for each of the policemen. Everyone has their own serial number! Some of them were even amongst that group of cultivators. Have you figured this out by now? I’ve been watching your so-called plan. In my eyes, it’s akin to a kindergarten joke…

“So…

“I arranged something interesting.

“I told those who posed as cultivators to fight with our people and pretend to be dead. I wanted to find out who the mastermind was… and then you appeared.

“Also…

“Your strategy of burying people is even more childish! To us, it is more of a joke.”

The young man looked at Lu Ming with relish.

Yes.

The plan was very childish.

Burying people was even more childish.

However, at the sight that Lu Ming planned this alone, such thoughts disappeared from his mind. A four-star scheming against a group of five and six-stars…

This guy…

The young man actually felt some fear.

Especially when this person was Lu Yan’s younger brother.

He got up.

He lifted the spear in his hands and aimed it at Lu Ming. “Surrender or die.”

“Do I have a chance to surrender?”

Lu Ming was taken aback.

“Of course.”

The young man’s expression was calm. “The police need new blood, especially people like us. Your insidiousness, cunning and shamelessness… I admire them very much.”

Lu Ming was silent.

Damn!

Do you recruit people this way?

“I thought that you would say… Your looks, talents and character… I admire them very much.”

Lu Ming sighed.

The young man paused for a moment and cast a look of admiration at Lu Ming. “There, I admire this shamelessness of yours.”

Lu Ming was speechless.

A—alright.

You won’t succeed in recruiting people like that…

Shush!

Lu Ming took out his cards.

“Heh.”

The young man was not surprised.

Okay, go ahead and die then.

Bang!

The aura surrounding him suddenly erupted.

All of a sudden, a terrifying and magnificent aura engulfed everyone within the vicinity!

Peak six-star!

This was another peak six-star!

Shush!

There was a cold glitter in his eyes.

When facing someone like Lu Ming, he would never underestimate him. Therefore, he went all out once he struck. A terrifying prowess shot out along with that amazing spear of his!

Bang!

The air trembled.

Lu Ming sensed a cold and chilling intent pounce on him.

Was this the power of peak six-stars?!

Well…

Let’s fight then!

Lu Ming felt his entire body heating up.

He also wanted to know what his ultimate combat strength was now?!

“Xia Yu, protect Xiaobai,” Lu Ming said in a low voice.

“Xiao-Xiaojian,” he uttered in his heart.

Shush!

Xiao-Xiaojian returned to him.

The might of two Moonlight Cards surged into his body!

His compact disc mental strength increased exponentially!

A hundred thousand points of energy were released!

Lu Ming instantly became one with his sword. Both his and Xiao-Xiaojian’s abilities were propelled to the maximum. He unhesitatingly cast the most powerful and lethal move!

Shush!

Golden lights flashed.

Buzz—

The surroundings and time seemed to have frozen.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

A gold card was released.

After being released from Lu Ming’s hands, it swept across the cultivators dashing towards him. It also swept across the spear shuttling towards him…

Eh?

The young man could sense that something was not right.

Shush!

He raised his spear.

He wanted to forcefully block the Original Card but…

Whoosh!

The Original Card made a Z-shaped trajectory and dodged the spear’s attack, as if it was a bolt of lightning shining in the void. It then appeared by the side of the young man.

Shush!

Golden lights shone.

The Original Card had returned to its original place!

“It’s over…”

Lu Ming’s face looked a little pale.

This was already the most powerful ability that he could use at his current level: Xiao-Xiaojian’s optimization + double laminated Moonlight Card + human and sword becoming one + mental strength increase + Lightning Slash!

In that case, would it end?

Not too far in the distance.

The cultivators who had been attacked suddenly froze. A streak of blood appeared on the necks of some of the cultivators. Blood spewed out and they died on the spot…

Yes.

The divine weapons have strengthened their abilities!

Oh, perhaps it propelled them into a higher realm!

However, they were ultimately five-stars. In the face of Lu Ming’s Lightning Slash which disregarded all their defenses… The divine weapon was of no use at all!

Since they could not dodge it, they could only die!

Pfft!

Pfft!

Blood spurted.

Lu Ming instinctively looked at that peak six-star cultivator, the young man who was the most powerful among the group. He was a dignified peak six-star and the person that Lu Ming was most worried about!

This person…

Lu Ming’s gaze focused. He could clearly see that the young man could not block his Lightning Slash. The bloody mark on his neck began to spew blood!

He had won!!!

Lu Ming’s heart skipped a beat.

He had actually won!

He had actually beat a peak six-star!

He had actually reached this stage.

Lu Ming was ecstatic in his heart.

Afterward…

In the next second…

He saw that young man ignoring his blood-spurting neck. Instead, he looked at Lu Ming with interest and a cruel smile emerged on his face.

“Lu Ming… Is this the best that you can do?”

Thump!

Lu Ming’s heart plummeted.

That guy… He was actually alright?!
