Chapter 218 Overestimating One's Capabilities
Chen Li was a little stunned. Could it be that this guy had someone to rely on behind him?
But since he was able to thrive in the Boundless Sea and was not worried about the emergence of the Nascent Soul Demon Clan, there was naturally no need for him to care so much.
"Since you've already said this, I won't say anything more. You'd better be a little more careful. Don't worry about Zheng Yuan's condition. He is safe now."
Chen Li waved his hands and told these things calmly.
Currently, Zheng Yuan is training in the Land of Death, and Zhou Cheng has his own support, so the black-robed demons will definitely not attack easily.
Moreover, the person who attacked him was Chen Li, so perhaps the other party would keep staring at Chen Li.
Zhou Cheng did not continue speaking, but turned back into the city, as if to prepare for what was to come.
Chen Li turned to look at Yin Yuehan, "Now that everything has been dealt with, when we go back and report to the elders, we will say that this was done by an unknown strong man, not me."
Although he knew that he was very strong, he was not stupid. There were more than one Nascent Soul cultivator in the Jiuzhou Continent.
If you keep publicizing your identity, it will only lead to more or less trouble.
His cultivation and strength had to be concealed, otherwise there would definitely be problems.
Of course, Yin Yuehan also knew what Chen Li was thinking, and immediately agreed, "Disciple understands."
She knew very well why Chen Li did this, so naturally she had to help hide it.
Hearing this, Chen Li said nothing more. He turned around and looked in a distant direction. He said to Yin Yuehan, "Before we go back, we have to do one more thing."
This sentence was a bit surprising. There was actually other things to do at this time.
Although he didn't know what Chen Li was thinking, Yin Yuehan still nodded and agreed, "I understand. When do we leave?"
"Let's set off now. With your qualifications, you should be able to advance to the Golden Core Stage once you get there." Chen Li said lightly.
This time, he planned to take Yin Yuehan to the blessed land of Lin Yunzhou. The spiritual energy in that place was rich, and the training place of Nanli Sect could not compare with it.
Taking Yin Yuehan with him would allow her to practice there and at the same time improve her cultivation to the Golden Core stage. Only in this way would she be able to help him with things.
Yin Yuehan nodded. Although she was excited, she still replied respectfully, "Disciple understands."
Afterwards, the two of them left the Boundless Sea. Although their speed was not slow, their location was still captured by a figure in the distance.
The black-robed demon standing there frowned, watching Chen Li and the other two leaving the Boundless Sea, his expression turned very ugly.
“Don’t think this is the end. When my skills are fully developed, you will die in my hands.” The black-robed demon clenched his fists tightly, with murderous intent in his eyes.
A mere human dared to provoke him like this. No one would be happy if it were anyone else.
Moreover, he actually chose the most humiliating method under this man's hands, which was to escape.
When his skills are perfected, he will definitely kill Chen Li as soon as possible.
On Chen Li's side, he naturally sensed a gaze, but that gaze disappeared in just a breath.
It seems that the other party deliberately hid himself to avoid being discovered by him.
If things go as expected, this guy is most likely the demon he just fought with.
Although I really wanted to attack him at that time, it seems that now I have no choice but to leave.
After all, that guy won't accept the challenge so easily. Instead of dealing with this matter, it is better to complete the tasks assigned by the giant ape and the nine-tailed fox.
So he didn't care too much about it, but just walked towards a certain direction obediently.
Because Yin Yuehan's physical strength and cultivation could not keep up, Chen Li was not in a hurry. Instead, he slowed down his pace to allow her to follow him.
This can also be considered as a part of cultivation. If I let her rely on me blindly, she will only make no progress in the end.
One day later, in an unknown city, Chen Li and Yin Yuehan were resting here. Although Chen Li did not need to rest, Yin Yuehan was not feeling well.
Although she didn't want to delay, her physical strength was really overdrawn. After all, following Chen Li on the high-intensity journey was really unbearable for her.
Chen Li naturally didn't say anything, he just stood quietly in a corner and rested.
This place is still the same as before, with many people nearby staring at it covetously.
Each of them looks very strong, but in Chen Li's eyes, these people are all ants that can be killed at will.
Of course, he did not take the initiative to provoke these people. As long as these people did not take the initiative to provoke him, he would certainly not kill innocent people.
Yin Yuehan sat on the ground, constantly recovering his spiritual energy.
The reason why Chen Li did not restore her was to increase her affinity with spiritual energy. Only in this way could her meridians be expanded to accommodate more spiritual energy.
Everyone around was staring at this place. Even though they didn't take any action, they were all observing their abilities.
The vast majority of cultivators here are in the late foundation-building stage, and there are also a few scattered cultivators in the early golden elixir stage.
When they observed that Yin Yuehan's cultivation was in the late stage of foundation building, they all chose to give up.
Judging from the relationship between Yin Yuehan and Chen Li, they are obviously master and disciple. Since the disciple's cultivation has reached the late stage of foundation building, the master's cultivation must be in the golden elixir stage.
If they went against a Jindan-stage cultivator for no reason, they might not even know how they died.
Yin Yuehan has been absorbing spiritual energy. Although the spiritual energy around her is thin, she still has spiritual liquid in her hands, so she absorbs it quickly.
However, after everyone present saw the spiritual liquid in Yin Yuehan's hand, they all became uneasy, and greed was revealed in their eyes.
That is the spiritual liquid that can greatly improve one's cultivation level. However, this woman Yin Yuehan only used it to restore her spiritual energy. How extravagant that is.
Several cultivators in the early Jindan stage looked at each other, and seemed to understand what the other was thinking.
They walked slowly towards that direction, obviously intending to kill and rob.
These people believed that even if Chen Li’s cultivation was very strong, he would not be able to deal with the three of them who were in the early Jindan stage.
As long as I can get the spiritual liquid, this risk is worth it.
Chen Li naturally sensed what these people were thinking, and his brows furrowed. It seemed that these people were really courting death.
Do they really think that they can deal with Chen Li with their limited strength?
At this time, these people had walked over and stood in front of them.
"Get out." Chen Li didn't give them a chance to speak. He started talking as soon as they stood in front of him.
There was a strong murderous intent in his tone, which made the three of them shudder subconsciously.
These people didn't know what was going on. Just one sentence from Chen Li made them feel scared.
But they did not leave. Instead, they stood there with weapons drawn in their hands.
Yin Yuehan frowned, not expecting these people to point swords at them.
"You take a rest now, leave these people to me." Chen Li said calmly.
The opponents' cultivation is at the Jindan stage. With Yin Yuehan's current ability, he is probably unable to deal with them.
After Yin Yuehan reaches the Jindan stage, you can let him go freely and you will only need to pay a little attention to him.
After hearing Chen Li's answer, Yin Yuehan slowly closed his eyes and began to recover his spiritual energy.
The three men frowned. They didn't expect that they would be humiliated like this.
"It seems that you are looking for death!" One of the monks suddenly raised the big knife in his hand and slashed at Chen Li.
Chen Li had no intention of dodging, but just stared at the other party coldly.
When the big knife was about to chop Chen Li's neck, the monk stopped moving for some reason and stood there without making any movement.
The remaining two people didn't know what was going on. They were only one step away from killing Chen Li, so why didn't they take action?
Just as they were wondering, they found that the monk suddenly fell to the ground with his head and neck separated.
The cut on the neck was perfect, as if it had been cut by a sword.
But they didn't see anyone taking action just now, and they didn't even feel the fluctuation of spiritual energy.
What exactly happened? Was there some powerful person helping them in secret?
"Let's go together." one of the monks shouted.
The other monk followed without hesitation. For the sake of the spiritual fluid, this kind of thing had to be done.
It’s a pity that they underestimated Chen Li’s cultivation level. Before they could even get close to Chen Li, they had already followed in his footsteps.
The three men fell to the ground, bleeding profusely, their heads rolling on the ground like balls.
Chen Li waved his hand lightly, and the three corpses on the ground instantly turned into a handful of yellow earth.
The other monks who were observing were all shocked, because they had not expected that the monk in front of them could be so terrifying.
If they fight this guy, they won't even know how they died.
Fortunately, they kept their composure, otherwise they would have ended up like those three monks.
After dealing with these three people, Chen Li still stood there without any movement.
It would probably take some time for Yin Yuehan to recover. Chen Li had no intention of leaving, but just stood there and watched quietly.
Gradually, Chen Li felt a strange aura coming towards him quickly.
Chen Li turned his head and looked at the entrance not far away, a look of surprise appeared on his face. He didn't expect these guys to come here.
They were wearing green Taoist robes with the eight trigrams and long swords printed on them. These were obviously the Taoist robes of the Xuanjian Sect.
The person in the lead was none other than Wang Qingshan, the elder of Xuanjian Sect whom Chen Li had met before.
Several decades had passed since they last met, and Wang Qingshan's face had more wrinkles.
It can be seen that he probably doesn't have much time left. If his cultivation can't improve any further, he will probably die.
Even though the life span of a cultivator in the Jindan stage is very long, many cultivators have endured for a long time but have not been able to make any progress.
Chen Li didn't have any feelings about these. After all, it was impossible for him to help an outsider improve his cultivation.
On Wang Qingshan's side, he naturally also saw the two people standing over there, and was extremely surprised.
I really didn't expect that they would appear in this place. It seems that Chen Li has returned from Tianyuntai.
He turned around and shouted to the disciples, "Everyone, please stay here for an hour to rest. No trouble is allowed."
The disciples of Xuanjian Sect didn't say anything, just nodded in agreement, and then each found a place to rest.
As for Wang Qingshan, he slowly walked to Chen Li's side.
"Elder Chen, it's been a long time." Wang Qingshan walked up to Chen Li with a smile on his face and said.
When they first met, Chen Li was just a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage and looked very weak.
When they met again, his cultivation was already able to compete with that of the Jindan stage.
When they met now, Wang Qingshan found that he was unable to see through Chen Li's cultivation level. This was really surprising.
It seems that after so many years of practice, Chen Li's cultivation has already reached a very high level.
