Chapter 1297 The Mermaid: Her Beauty Shine Like the Tide (33)

Li Guang had just found a Phantom Heart Grass in a monster's lair. The guardian monster of the spirit grass was a third-tier Phantom Crying Dove, which had already reached the Nascent Soul stage. She couldn't possibly defeat it, so of course she ran away from that third-tier monster.

They were chased for hundreds of miles by the Phantom Crying Dove before finally shaking off the demonic beast. Not only was this beast incredibly fast, but its sonic attacks were also incredibly powerful, making it a truly troublesome opponent.

She felt quite pleased as she thought about the Illusionary Heart Grass growing on the Breath of Life.

Illusion Grass can be refined into pills to enhance the ability to break through illusions; even scraps can be refined into powder, which can make people more easily fall into illusions.

She possesses a technique called Dream Weaving, but due to her current low cultivation level, she needs external assistance to trap Foundation Establishment cultivators.

As she was walking down the road, she heard the crisp sound of weapons clashing ahead, mixed with a few greedy shouts.

The dense forest was filled with swirling miasma, and the mud beneath the decaying leaves was stained with blood.

She held her breath and quietly peered through the dense shade of the ancient trees—

In the center of the open space, a figure in black was surrounded by seven or eight black-robed cultivators.

The man's robes were ripped to shreds, and a deep, bone-revealing wound on his left shoulder was gushing blood, staining his purple robes a dark color.

The communication jade talisman on the ground shattered into several pieces.

"Lu Jinghong, obediently hand over your storage ring, and we might leave you with a whole corpse!" The leading yellow-robed cultivator licked his lips, his eyes filled with covetousness.

The besieged youth raised his eyes, his phoenix eyes still brimming with undiminished sharpness. Even though his face was as pale as paper, his tone still carried a hint of defiant arrogance: "Dream on. You bunch of trash don't even dare to touch my stuff?"

Before he could finish speaking, he forced himself to thrust his sword forward, but his injuries had ravaged his attacks, making his movements inaccurate. He could barely muster any spiritual energy anymore.

The black-robed cultivator at the head grinned and dodged to the side, slapping him hard on the back with a palm.

Lu Jinghong groaned and staggered to the ground, his purple robe instantly stained with a large patch of glaring red.

Li Guang sized up the group of people. It was obvious that these men in black robes had been eyeing Lu Jinghong for a long time, and they were wary of his identity, so they refused to reveal their true faces, fearing that a powerful figure might discover the murderer through the footage of his death.

"Since you refuse to hand it over, then we'll wait until you're dead and take it ourselves."

A group of people surrounded him again, not rushing to kill him directly, but instead torturing him while laughing and cursing.

Just as a magic sword was about to pierce his heart, Lu Jinghong's eyes were filled with determination, clearly indicating that he was preparing to self-destruct.

Li Guang's eyes flickered slightly.

The boy was clearly in a sorry state, yet he still stood tall, a sight that evoked a sense of melancholy.

He still looks better with a smile on his face.

However, these people are quite strong: two are at the tenth level of Qi Refining, two are at the eighth level of Qi Refining, one is at the seventh level of Qi Refining, and three are at the sixth level of Qi Refining.

She is currently at the ninth level of Qi Refining, so it's not suitable for her to confront them head-on. She should first seal their spiritual power.

A faint wisp of smoke quickly dissipated in the air.

She made a hand gesture, and several ice shards shot out, accurately striking the wrists of the cultivators.

Several screams were heard, and weapons fell to the ground.

The sneak attack was successful!

"Who? Come out!"

Li Guang slowly emerged from behind the tree, dressed in a moon-white robe. Despite having only reached the sixth level of Qi Refining, her features were delicate and lively, resembling her original appearance with a touch of childishness, making her seem even more harmless.

She tilted her head and said in a clear voice, "Fellow Daoists, isn't it rather ungentlemanly to gang up on the few?"

"Where did this little brat come from? A mere Qi Refining Level 6 cultivator dares to meddle in my business!" A Qi Refining Level 8 cultivator roared as he charged forward, throwing a punch.
