164: Chapter 67 Imitation: Heaven-Overturning Seal!
In a city to the northeast of the Royal City of the Immortal Dynasty, under attack by three giant demons.
When Li Ping’an first appeared, he didn’t attract any attention.
The closest to him were four Wanyun Sect members, three men and one woman, all middle-aged in appearance, each with cultivation similar to Daoist Chen Gongmin, ranging from mid-Void Refinement Realm to early Merge True Realm.
These four men and women were each seated in meditation, concentrating on channeling their mana into the foundation of the formation.
—The foundation of the formation was several irregular Immortal Stones hidden within the gate tower.
Li Ping’an didn’t contribute mana to help them stabilize the foundation.
Although his cultivation was not high, only at the first stage of Merge True, he now had three opportunities provided by the Great Power Yun Zhongzi and would certainly try to figure out how to overcome the enemy and win.
Li Ping’an had his sights set on the strongest tiger demon outside.
He fully deployed the “Hidden Dust Technique,” stealthily making his way to the parapet, ducking down to retrieve several items from his sleeve.
Li Ping’an knew that senior Yun Zhongzi was watching him, but…
Principles are principles, not to be easily changed.
Putting on a thin mask made from the hide of a spiritual beast, Li Ping’an’s face immediately changed, and he also took out a black faceguard to wear over his face.
Similar to the last time in the East Sea when he caught the attention of that demon bull, Li Ping’an would certainly not make the same mistake again!
After preparing, Li Ping’an had basically figured out the fighting style of the tiger demon.
The demon appeared fierce, but its attacks were somewhat simplistic.
The fluctuations emitted by its demon soul were basically equivalent to a fifth or sixth rank Primordial Immortal of the Human Race, relying on its sturdy demon body and two soul-refined black orbs used as demon weapons to suppress six or seven Wanyun Sect Primordial Immortals.
The biggest threat here was actually the scruffy male eagle.
This eagle was extremely swift in flight, and Li Ping’an noticed that it could grow or shrink in size; when it turned smaller, its speed visibly increased, and its two talons were as sharp as Immortal Treasures.
Moreover, it was apparent that the eagle demon was only skimming the battle and had not yet exerted its full strength.
Li Ping’an kept pondering, quickly formulating a battle strategy in his mind.
Just as he was about to stand up and rush out, he crouched down again to continue thinking.
‘I also need to calculate how to deal with it if the big demon transforms into human form, or if its body shrinks in a very short time.’
The grand formation had been bombarded more than a dozen times, and a few of the Wanyun Sect members guarding the foundation had begun to cough up blood.
A gleam of brilliance flashed in Li Ping’an’s eyes as he stood up from behind the parapet, grasping the Zongyun Spear in his right hand, and charged towards the light formation ahead.
Li Ping’an called out, “Disciples of the Wanyun Sect are here!
Demons, surrender or be vanquished!”
These two lines of inspiring shouts were what he had learned from Ningning Mu.
An Immortal of the Wanyun Sect urgently called out:
“These three demons are all at the Primordial Immortal Realm!
What chaos do you, a mere Void Refinement Merge True, intend to stir up!”
Li Ping’an’s figure had already crashed through the grand formation.
The oppressive force from the great demon made his whole body tense, but a golden light flashed in his eyes.
His primordial soul quickly formed seals, activating the Spirit Pill he had swallowed in advance, and he resisted the pressure!
I am here to assist you!” he called out again, successfully drawing the attention of the tiger demon.
The tiger demon roared, and a black flame smashed directly towards Li Ping’an.
Having observed from the sidelines, Li Ping’an had already calculated the ‘speed’ of the black flames, but facing it now still filled him with immense pressure.
Fortunately, with the Long Spear vibrating continuously in his hand, he shot up like a hawk, his figure narrowly missing a gust of demonic wind!
A Primordial Immortal of the Wanyun Sect rushed at Li Ping’an, trying to push him back into the grand formation.
Li Ping’an urged his mantra and called out to several Immortals:
I have a way to deal with the great demon!”
The few Primordial Immortals were unmoved, each moving around the tiger demon, continuing the fierce battle.
The tiger demon’s blood-red eye fixed on Li Ping’an.
It also knew to pick on the weak, aiming to eliminate Li Ping’an first.
Li Ping’an charged with his spear, urgently calling out:
“The weak point of this tiger demon lies in its abdomen and tail; we need someone to strike its perineum!”
“Officers, will you listen to my advice!”
As the spear’s shadow was halfway through its thrust, the Primordial Immortal who had lunged at him was already close to Li Ping’an.
With a wave of his sleeve, a powerful force of immortal power flung Li Ping’an directly back into the protective city formation.
“Go protect the formation foundation!
There’s no need for you, who has yet to become an Immortal, to risk your life!”
“Were it not for the fact that you’re using our Wanyun Jue, I would have taken you for a spy of the Demon Race!”
Li Ping’an managed to steady himself atop the city walls, feeling a mix of warmth and frustration in his heart.
These high-ranking officers usually weren’t so stubborn!
But then again, it was reasonable for a junior to suddenly come out giving orders without being heeded by the Immortals; the problem was indeed his own.
Seeing all this, Chan Teaching Lucky Immortal in the clouds nearly laughed out loud.
Li Ping’an clenched his fists tightly, intending to take advantage of the chaos and activate the secret treasure given by Yun Zhongzi to kill the tiger outright.
However, he glanced at the south…
The assessment from senior Yun Zhongzi, he certainly had to complete;
But with today’s situation, if he could use this secret treasure to wound more great demons and relieve their own side’s pressure, he would certainly try!
Li Ping’an took a deep breath, standing on top of the city wall.
His Daoist Robe fluttered, and with a step forward, he rushed out again, shouting:
“My father, Li Dazhi!”
The twelve Primordial Immortals of Wanyun Sect outside the grand formation trembled in unison!
Streams of divine consciousness swept over, Li Ping’an’s figure shook several times, producing twelve phantoms, chasing and furiously striking at the fierce tiger!
