In an instant, three hostile cultivators perished!
The Tier Three puppet was split in half, and the Tier Three demon beast crouched in fear, not daring to move an inch.
anwhile, the demon beast that attacked from beneath the swamp instantly annihilated the Core Formation Stage black shadow; the puppet wielding dual blades vanished without a trace.
This scene made everyone present suddenly widen their eyes in disbelief.
At this mont, even the dullest among them could see that this unexpected turn of events was beneficial to them.
Clearly, soone had saved them!
The group frantically looked around in astonishnt.
Finally, everyone’s gaze settled on Li Jizhou, the only one standing proudly.
"Master Gu?"
They looked at Li Jizhou in utter disbelief.
They simply couldn’t associate the recent changes with him.
However, the truth was that besides Li Jizhou, there was no one else who could have done this!
Li Jizhou didn’t spare them a glance, only looked briefly in the direction where Zhang Ruoyu had fled.
Then he pursued him.
Leaving behind a group of people who had narrowly survived disaster, bewildered and panicked.
A mont later, following Zhang Ruoyu’s escape trail, Li Jizhou sensed the battle ahead.
"Hmph, I still underestimated you!" the voice of the hostile cultivator leader was the first to reach him.
Li Jizhou slowly approached, scanning the scene with his Divine Sense, and the battle scene ca into view.
He had to admit, Zhang Ruoyu exceeded his expectations.
At this mont, although Zhang Ruoyu was still at the Middle Stage of Core Formation, his magical power was not inferior to that of soone at the Late Stage of Core Formation.
Of course, this was partly due to his opponent using talismans to forcibly regain the strength of the Late Stage of Core Formation.
However, the spells Zhang Ruoyu was currently using focused mainly on defense and control.
Towering trees rose from the ground, nearly encasing him in an impenetrable barrier.
The fierce power of the hostile cultivator was blocked outside the giant trees.
At the sa ti, vines shot out in an attempt to imprison the opponent.
However, as a cultivator at the Late Stage of Core Formation, and now further enraged after multiple setbacks, the hostile cultivator was relentless.
He was seen pulling a fiery-looking pill from his storage bag and swallowing it in one gulp.
Boom~
A surge of magical power erupted, restoring him to his peak Late Stage Core Formation state.
"Bang bang bang!" In an instant, the fierce offensive shook the giant trees surrounding Zhang Ruoyu.
Zhang Ruoyu’s magical power also exploded to its peak, but even though he laid a solid foundation during the Foundation Establishnt Stage and rapidly advanced after condensing his True Core, with magical power thirty percent higher than others at the sa level, he still hadn’t advanced to the Late Stage of Core Formation.
Facing the overwhelming assault from a peak Late Stage Core Formation cultivator, it was exceedingly difficult to withstand.
In no ti, Zhang Ruoyu’s magical power beca unstable, the towering trees around him weakened, and the vines gradually retreated into the ground.
"Friend, hold your hand!" Finally, Zhang Ruoyu shouted, unable to withstand it any longer.
"Hmph, enough nonsense, hand over the rare treasure, and I’ll spare your life!" the hostile cultivator sneered, but his assault did not pause.
Zhang Ruoyu’s magical power was rapidly depleting, and he gritted his teeth to hold on: "I truly don’t have any rare treasure!"
"Nonsense, without a rare treasure, how could a re Middle Stage Core Formation cultivator foresee my ambush?"
"To be honest, I laid a solid foundation during the Foundation Establishnt Stage, and only then accumulated abundant magical power and Divine Sense during the Core Formation Stage, without any extraordinary treasures!" Zhang Ruoyu explained sowhat helplessly.
"Old man, it seems you won’t cry until you see the coffin!" The hostile cultivator didn’t believe it at all, intensifying his attack.
"Bang!" Finally, Zhang Ruoyu couldn’t resist any longer; the ancient tree in front of him shattered, and he was sent flying backward.
Seeing Zhang Ruoyu injured and on the ground, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in the hostile cultivator’s eyes; he seized the opportunity to finish Zhang Ruoyu off.
Zhang Ruoyu saw the attack coming but was powerless to stop it; he could only sigh deeply.
After surviving for so many years, he finally fell!
"Ultimately, it’s still not enough strength!"
Just as he prepared to self-destruct his True Core to perish with the hostile cultivator,
suddenly,
"Swish~" a shadow flickered.
"Bang!" The rushing hostile cultivator changed color abruptly, using a Spiritual Artifact to barely block a lethal blow.
A spark flashed before him, and cold sweat trickled down his back.
"Who?" Retreating a hundred steps, the hostile cultivator gazed fiercely ahead.
Li Jizhou walked out slowly, a dark puppet following closely beside him.
"How is this possible?"
Scanning with his Divine Sense, the hostile cultivator’s expression changed drastically.
Li Jizhou currently exuded the aura of an Early Stage Core Formation cultivator, under his Late Stage Divine Sense, with nowhere to hide.
And the puppet, he couldn’t sense its strength at all.
But from that previous strike, it was clear the puppet was at least Tier Three Advanced, perhaps even surpassing his peak strength.
How could an Early Stage Core Formation cultivator possess a Tier Three Advanced or even higher-level puppet?
For a mont, he wasn’t afraid, but excited!
"Master Gu!" Zhang Ruoyu was on the brink of death, yet the sudden change made him ecstatic.
But seeing Li Jizhou, he was also shocked.
This puppet was too strong.
Not sothing an Early Stage Core Formation cultivator should have.
Unless this person was from a great noble family or was a core successor of so super puppet force like Celestial Secret City.
Li Jizhou’s expression was calm; he glanced at Zhang Ruoyu and nodded slightly.
Years ago, at Xiaogang Peak, obtaining the Longevity Fruit allowed him to attempt refining the Lifespan Extension Pill. Also, he had used Zhang Ruoyu’s appearance to cultivate stealthily on the island for decades, settling this debt today!
"Who are you?" The hostile cultivator hid his excitent, asking in a deep voice.
However, there was also so concern about the power behind him.
If the opponent turned out to be from an awe-inspiring background, even a mountain of gold and silver before him wouldn’t tempt him.
Li Jizhou turned to him and said, "The dead need not know too much!"
Before the words fell, a loud bang sounded.
The dual blade puppet had already leaped from the black water under the hostile cultivator’s feet, slashing solidly at his Mana Shield.
