Evil Master and Disciple

Chapter 1387 Electric Snake

Thousands of thick electric snakes, activated by Yuan Jiugong, descended from the sky, tearing countless gaps in the unique domain of a Heavenly Realm expert activated by Li Ruoxi.

Yuan Jiugong had not reached the Heavenly Limit Realm, but she managed to dismantle her own domain power with the power of lightning, which startled Li Ruoxi.

We have to re-evaluate this withered-looking old man.

Yuan Jiugong's expression was equally solemn.

Her cloudy eyes were fixed on Li Ruoxi as she said, "I never expected you to be a Heavenly Limit Realm expert. I misjudged you. May I ask who you are?"

Li Ruoxi said calmly, "Li Ruoxi."

"Li Ruoxi? You are... that Venerable One?"

Yuan Jiugong and several other elders of the Cloud Sea Sect around him simultaneously changed their expressions slightly.

The name Li Ruoxi is still unfamiliar to most people, but the Xuan Ying of the Yunhai Sect know a little about her.

Li Ruoxi said, "It's me."

Li Ruoxi openly admitted her identity, seemingly unconcerned about the current grudges between her and the Yunhai Sect.

Yuan Jiugong narrowed his eyes and said, "So you are the mysterious Venerable One who hides in the shadows and stirs up the winds and clouds of the world. I have long admired you."

Li Ruoxi slowly said, "Enough with the nonsense. The grudge between me and your Yunhai Sect runs deep. There's no need for feigned politeness. I'll protect Shen Feiyang tonight. I wonder if Granny Lei could do me a favor?"

Yuan Jiugong grinned and said, "What do you think?"

Li Ruoxi said, "Do you think you can stop me with just a few of you? The only person in the world who can defeat me is the Sword God Dugu Chan. Unfortunately, you are not Dugu Chan. None of you have reached the Heavenly Limit Realm. Do you think you can stop me and Jinghui Shenni, two Heavenly Limit Realm experts?"

After saying that, Li Ruoxi looked behind Yuan Jiugong.

Yuan Jiugong glanced sideways and saw that the nun Jinghui was hovering about twenty feet behind her.

Yuan Jiugong said, "How will we know if we don't try?"

He spoke lightly, but his heart was heavy.

The Heavenly Realm is the realm of immortals, and the gap between it and the Void Transformation Realm cannot be bridged by sheer numbers.

Even with all his power, he could only barely suppress Li Ruoxi's domain power.

At this moment, these few people can only hold Li Ruoxi back for a short while. If Li Ruoxi wants to leave, with her cultivation at the Heavenly Limit Realm, they cannot stop her.

However, there was also Jinghui, who was also at the Heavenly Limit Realm, behind her.

Tonight's operation went wrong in the place where it least should have gone wrong.

Zen Moon Temple has two experts at the Heavenly Limit Realm, one of whom is the mysterious Venerable Master that the major sects in the human world have been secretly investigating recently.

This huge change was something that Yuan Jiugong and others had not anticipated.

It can be said that Li Ruoxi's appearance completely disrupted the Yunhai Sect's plans for tonight.

Now Yuan Jiugong and the others have no way out. The battle at the temple is not over yet, so Yuan Jiugong can only do his best to entangle Li Ruoxi and Jinghui.

Yuan Jiugong naturally did not expect to defeat or kill Li Ruoxi and Jinghui Shenni; she only wanted to buy some time for the Shiyou Temple's actions.

As Yuan Jiugong finished speaking, countless twisted electric snakes began to attack Li Ruoxi.

Li Ruoxi's eyes flashed, and a three-foot-long sword suddenly appeared in her hand.

With a flick of her divine sword, a rift was torn open in the space where the blade passed.

The countless fragments of space scattered across the sky transformed into numerous crystal-clear flying blades, shooting towards the heavens.

Each fragment of space blocked an incoming electric snake.

clack clack...

Thousands of electric snakes disappeared in an instant, with most of them vanishing.

Seeing that Yuan Jiugong had made a move, Xuan Hai, Xuan Tao, and the other three elders of the Yunhai Sect also immediately joined the attack.

They dared not approach Li Ruoxi.

Instead, she unleashed powerful sword intent from a distance, and countless sword energies containing powerful laws rained down on Li Ruoxi from all directions.

Li Ruoxi gave a soft hum.

She couldn't defeat Dugu Chan not because she was weak, but because Dugu Chan's cultivation level was too high.

Li Ruoxi was quite capable of handling these sword cultivators at the Transformation Realm.

Seeing the overwhelming sword intent coming from all around, Li Ruoxi's gaze sharpened, and a powerful aura capable of destroying the world emanated from her body.

The sword light, imbued with powerful sword intent, vanished without a trace when it was about one zhang away from Li Ruoxi's body.

Upon seeing this, Yuan Jiugong shouted.

His body suddenly disappeared into the night sky.

The next moment, a deafening roar resounded through the sky.

Above the originally pitch-black heavens, a huge spatial rift seemed to have appeared.

Countless bolts of lightning surged forth from the spatial rift like water bursting from a dam.

After these electric snakes surged out, they intertwined with each other, forming an enormous electric python.

The sky beams emitted a blinding white light, carrying a terrifying divine power that seemed to come from another world, as they roared down from above.

Wherever the electric python passed, space shattered.

Li Ruoxi looked up at the twisted electric python that was rapidly descending, feeling as if a thick, twisted white beam of light was descending upon her.

Lightning is a pure yang and extremely strong attribute, and has always been regarded by the world as a power that only gods can control, and that mortals cannot tame.

Among the three thousand great paths, lightning has the strongest attack power.

This is why, although Yuan Jiugong did not reach the Heavenly Limit Realm, she could still barely reach the Heavenly Limit Realm level in terms of combat power by relying on her powerful lightning abilities.

If facing Xuanjizi, the leader of the Xuanzhen Sect, Yuan Jiugong would still have a fighting chance. Yinsha Xuanjizi had only reached the Heavenly Stop Realm less than a year ago and was still in the early stage of the Heavenly Stop Realm.

Li Ruoxi is different; she has been at the Heavenly Realm for nearly two thousand years.

Her cultivation level is far beyond the initial stage of the Heavenly Stop realm.

As the enormous electric python crashed down, Li Ruoxi did not dodge.

She just smiled dismissively.

With a sweep of his immortal sword, a terrifying sword aura shot out in all directions, directly blasting the five Cloud Sea Sect elders who were besieging him dozens of feet away.

Immediately, Li Ruoxi's long sword shot into the sky.

A not-so-bright sword light pierced straight through the blade of the divine sword in her hand.

Compared to the nearly hundred-foot-long electric python, the sword light that Li Ruoxi activated was so weak.

The moment the sword's edge made contact with the electric python, a deafening roar shook the heavens.

Immediately, the seemingly invincible giant electric python was pierced through from bottom to top by an inconspicuous sword beam.

Like a long, giant firework bursting in the sky, the enormous electric python exploded into countless tiny electric snakes that shot and darted about in the air.

At that moment, a huge shadow, accompanied by a violent gust of wind, crashed towards Li Ruoxi.

Li Ruoxi parried with a backhand sword.

There was another loud noise.

Li Ruoxi, who was in mid-air, was shaken and forced back more than two zhang (approximately 6.6 meters).

And the huge shadow was revealed, which turned out to be the dragon-headed cane in Yuan Jiugong's hand.
