Chapter 252: Battle against Yan Nu
Lin Chengyan felt relieved and excited at the same time. He originally thought that Chen Li was only a cultivator in the late Jindan stage or the peak of the late Jindan stage. Who could have thought that he would be a cultivator in the Yuanying stage.
This alone was enough to allow them to walk sideways on this road, but when it came to the fact that there was a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage staring at them, Lin Chengyan was still a little nervous.
If something happened, it would only put them in bigger trouble. After all, when Chen Li and Yan Nu were fighting, he, a Jindan-stage cultivator, would be affected no matter how hard he tried.
It doesn't matter if I get affected, but if something happens to my daughter, I'm afraid I'll be doomed.
Chen Li glanced in the direction not far away and said to Lin Chengyan, "Now that everything has been dealt with, let's set off again now and don't waste time."
He didn't want to waste time because of this, so he might as well go to Sifang City as soon as possible so that he could go to the Western Desert.
"Okay." Lin Chengyan did not refuse, but agreed very happily, and then took Chen Li away from this place.
As they left, there were many monsters staring at them, but the cultivation levels of these monsters were too low. Just by sensing the aura of Chen Li, they all lay prostrate on the ground and did not dare to move at all.
When Lin Chengyan saw this scene, he was very surprised, because Chen Li did not show any pressure, why were these monsters so respectful to him?
After all, this was not a sign of respect for Chen Li, but a sign of respect for the white jade spider hidden in Chen Li's Taoist robe.
Although Chen Li and the others could not detect it, these monsters could sense that there was a very terrifying aura on Chen Li.
Of course, Chen Li ignored these monsters. To him, some Jindan stage monsters were not such a big threat.
What he needs to do now is to keep his eyes on his surroundings and try to find the so-called Yan Nu. If that guy is hiding nearby, something will definitely happen to them.
They had been doing quite well these past few days and had hardly encountered any danger. Even if there was, it would be easily eliminated by Chen Li.
One morning, Chen Li looked at a very large city in front of him, which brought a relieved smile to his face.
Finally we arrived at Sifang City. The next step was to ask for directions to the Western Desert. After all, this place was close to the Western Desert, and anyone we asked would know which way to go.
When Lin Chengyan saw Sifang City, he felt relieved. As long as he arrived in Sifang City, his daughter's affairs would be settled.
Just when Lin Chengyan was about to say something else, he suddenly discovered a figure appeared not far ahead.
When he noticed that figure, his breathing became rapid and his eyes were filled with worry.
Chen Li frowned, and with a wave of his right hand, a black sword appeared in his hand. The guy in front of him had a very strong aura and was definitely a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage.
When the figure appeared in front of him, Chen Li could see his face clearly.
He looked to be around sixty years old, wearing a blood-red Taoist robe, and had very sharp eyes.
"It's worth my waiting for you near Sifang City. I finally got the chance." The blood-robed monk stared at Chen Li and others and spoke lightly.
Chen Li stared at the blood-robed monk in front of him and said coldly, "Are you Yan Nu?"
Yan Nu looked at Chen Li with some surprise, but soon realized, "It seems that you have wiped out the vanguard team."
If this is the case, I'm afraid it will still take some effort to get rid of Chen Li and the others.
"You guys leave here immediately while I'm fighting, and leave him to me." Chen Li turned to look at Lin Chengyan and said so.
Lin Chengyan nodded. He knew very well that he and his daughter would only be a burden to Chen Li if they stayed here. The best way was to leave while they were fighting and then go find reinforcements.
Yan Nu, who was not far away, naturally heard what Chen Li said, and sneered, "You think you are worthy enough to fight me?"
Although he didn't know how Chen Li killed all the members of the vanguard team, in front of him, Chen Li was just an ant that could be killed with ease.
Chen Li snorted coldly, and a very terrifying aura emanated from his body, and an illusory figure appeared behind him.
"You don't think that you are the only one in the Nascent Soul stage?" Chen Li stared at the other party coldly and said coldly.
Feeling such a depressing atmosphere, Yan Nu stopped his contemptuous behavior and looked at Chen Li coldly.
It seems that the boy in front of me is a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage. It is really surprising. I didn't expect that besides myself, there is another cultivator who has reached the Nascent Soul stage.
In this case, the most important thing to do now is to get rid of Chen Li first, and then deal with Lin Chengyan and the others.
"Let's go." Chen Li said to Lin Chengyan.
Now that I have pinned him down, let Lin Chengyan and the others leave here, and then I will fight him.
Lin Chengyan and others quickly left the place. Yan Nu had no intention of taking action. Instead, he looked at Chen Li intently.
If we attack Lin Chengyan and the others now, we will only be ambushed by Chen Li, and we will definitely be at a disadvantage.
"It seems that you did not choose to stop them." Chen Li stared at Yan Nu, and a very violent spiritual energy fluctuation was spreading around his body.
Yan Nu sneered, "After I get rid of you, it won't be too late to deal with them. Anyway, even if they enter Sifang City, I have a way to get them out again."
Chen Li didn't say anything, his eyes focused, and he instantly appeared in front of Yan Nu, with the black sword slashing out an arc of light.
Such a sword surprised Yan Nu, but he quickly stepped back to avoid the attack.
"Don't think you can escape like this." Chen Li's sword move came again, which made Yan Nu even more surprised. How could this kid be so fast?
His sword moves were very tricky and his attack speed was very fast, leaving no time to dodge.
I originally thought that as long as I focused on staring at Chen Li, I would not be at a disadvantage. But now it seems that Chen Li's strength is even more terrifying than I thought, and now I have been suppressed by him.
Chen Li's speed was getting faster and faster, and his sword moves were becoming more and more illusory, so Yan Nu was suppressed and had no way to continue moving.
"Don't go too far." Yan Nu suddenly slapped him with his palm, which surprised Chen Li. This guy actually took the initiative to attack under such an offensive.
But Chen Li had no intention of retreating. He suddenly slashed Yan Nu's shoulder with his sword, leaving a very deep wound.
However, doing so also brought him serious consequences. He was hit by Yan Nu's palm and retreated a long distance.
A trace of blood seeped out of the corner of Chen Li's mouth. No one expected that he would choose to suffer losses on both sides.
In fact, Yan Nu’s approach was very correct. If he continued to defend like this, he would be suppressed to death by Chen Li sooner or later.
By then, there will be no chance to fight back, and both sides will suffer losses. Naturally, you will gain a lot.
After all, Chen Li's suppression was gone, and he was also injured, so Yan Nu had the opportunity to fight back.
It’s a pity that Chen Li’s methods are far more than that. Holding the black sword, he rushed up again at the first moment.
This time Yan Nu was prepared. He took out a bloody sword without hesitation and slashed at Chen Li.
Feeling a very terrifying blood energy coming, Chen Li showed a look of surprise on his face. As a result, because of this attack, he was about to be hit by the blood energy.
Chen Li did not choose to dodge, but instead chose to fight it out. This situation even shocked Yan Nu.
This kid clearly had a chance to dodge just now, why did he choose to endure it now? Does he really want to die?
No, looking at this kid's appearance, he doesn't seem to be looking for death. I'm afraid he has some secret weapon that he hasn't used yet.
"I really didn't expect that you actually have such a treasure." Chen Li's voice suddenly came from the blood, which scared Yan Nu.
He found that Chen Li was full of blood and energy at this time, and he did not have the aura of a righteous cultivator just now. Instead, he revealed an evil aura.
"You are not a righteous cultivator!" Yan Nu was shocked and slapped him hard with his palm.
Chen Li dodged quickly and appeared behind Yan Nu, sneering: "When did I ever say that I am a righteous cultivator?"
He has never claimed to be a righteous monk, and he knows very well who he is.
Yan frowned Nu. This time he was in real trouble. He didn't expect to meet a cultivator like himself, and he didn't feel anything towards this blood.
Chen Li suddenly stabbed Yan Nu's back with a sword, causing him to feel a sharp pain.
"Looking for death!" Yan shouted angrily, and an illusory figure suddenly covered himself, directly throwing Chen Li away for a long distance.
When feeling this force, Chen Li couldn't help but frown and contain the Dharma image around his body. This was the method to approach the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
"It seems that your cultivation is about to reach the middle stage of Nascent Soul." Chen Li looked at Yan Nu and said coldly.
Yan Nu sneered and turned to look at Chen Li, "That's right, so I must get that woman, and even you can't stop me."
In order to be able to successfully advance to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, a woman with the Nine Yin Body is an absolutely perfect cauldron. As long as he can draw energy from her, he won't need to go through such a troublesome process of advancement, and he won't even need to endure the thunder from the sky.
Chen Li frowned. It seemed that these guys were just thinking about taking the crooked path. After all, their strength still needed to be improved step by step.
"If you want that woman, you'll have to see if you have the ability to do it." Chen Li waved his right hand, and an invisible sword energy suddenly flew over.
Yan Nu snorted lightly, and the sword energy at this moment dissolved Chen Li's sword energy, and then he suddenly rushed towards Chen Li.
Unfortunately, before he got close to Chen Li's position, he discovered that the ground had undergone tremendous changes, and countless spiritual flying swords emerged.
Not only were there flying swords of spiritual energy, there were even many black and white figures transformed from spiritual energy, standing at their respective positions, forming a sword formation.
Boom! A bolt of lightning flashed through the sword formation, and then lightning surrounded it. All the spirit figures seemed to have been blessed and took action immediately.
Faced with the violent thunder and ferocious sword formation, Yan Nu's face showed displeasure. He had not expected that Chen Li could operate such a formation to perfection.
Since he has already used his killing move, I absolutely cannot hide it any longer. If I hide my moves when fighting against a cultivator of the same level, I will only die faster.
He took a deep breath, and a giant flaming python suddenly surrounded his body. The approaching spiritual figure became a little illusory at this time, but still did not stop moving.
Yan Nu was a little surprised. This giant fire python could absorb spiritual energy, but these spiritual people were not affected much and were still moving.
Chen Li sneered. The black and white spiritual energy was not ordinary spiritual energy. With Yan Nu's limited ability, he had no way to destroy the sword formation.
In addition, he could continue to replenish his spiritual energy, so even if Yan Nu wanted to destroy the sword formation, it would take a lot of effort.
Chen Lizhe is such an annoying kid. Each of his moves is extremely compact, and as soon as he blocks an attack from the front, another attack will come from behind.
