Chapter 357: Chapter 203: Great Victory! Consecutive Slaying of Golden Cores!_2 Chapter 357: Chapter 203: Great Victory! Consecutive Slaying of Golden Cores!_2 Numerous magic artifacts interwove through the void, their aura staggering, conjuring up thousands of massive waves.

As for the demon cultivators, their morale drastically withered, scattering like frightened birds.

“Run!”

When a Golden Core demon cultivator turned his head to flee, the whole group of demon cultivators disbanded in panic.

Countless demon cultivators quickly put away their magic artifacts and fled the scene.

Even Shang Hongyang from the Business Association was seething with frustration.

He hadn’t expected to bet on the wrong side, only for the demon cultivators to face a complete defeat.

This seriously compromised his own interests.

All of this was caused by Lu Li, filling him with profound hatred.

Shang Hongyang also didn’t linger to fight and immediately fled towards the rear.

Upon seeing this, a group of righteous cultivators immediately assembled their tunneling light and chased after them.

Innumerable beams of light intertwined in the void, permeating a hundred-mile radius of the sea domain; thick mists furiously surged.

Even Cheng Xuanying and other Golden Core Venerables were no exception, all chasing after the Golden Core demon cultivators.

Lu Li put away Soul Sorrow’s storage bag and came next to Liu Luoxin.

“Husband, you truly opened Xin Er’s eyes today, sparing your wife unnecessary worry.”

Liu Luoxin smiled charmingly, her tone slightly reproachful.

She hadn’t expected her own husband’s strength to be so astounding.

Even she had been kept in the dark.

Lu Li chuckled slightly, “I will go after Shang Hongyang first and return shortly.”

“Be careful, husband. This man has intricate connections with the Inner Sea,”
Liu Luoxin quietly admonished him.

“No matter what powerful backing he has, this man is destined to die,”
Lu Li’s face was a mask of murderous intent.

He despised this kind of turncoat immensely.

Had it not been for the other’s sudden betrayal, they wouldn’t have fallen into such a crisis.

His Daoist couple wouldn’t have been gravely injured either.

Today, even if Shang Hongyang knew the Nascent Soul Monarch, it would be useless; Lu Li was set on his demise, and no one could save him.

With those words, Lu Li immediately activated his Divine Power Technique, a blue light spiraled around his body, speeding him towards the sea domain like lightning.

With his post-breakthrough cultivation, his escape speed increased greatly.

Soon, he spotted Shang Hongyang’s tunneling light.

Lu Li powered his escape skill to the fullest, and in a few flashes, intercepted Shang Hongyang.

He quietly stood above the sea surface, his face full of murderous intent as he stared at Shang Hongyang.

“Mr. Lu, what is this about? We have no deep grudge, and in the future, my Business Association could ally with the righteous path to jointly deal with the Demon Sect, how about it?”

Shang Hongyang forced a slight smile.

His heart, however, was ablaze with fury. As leader of the Business Association, when had he ever had to humble himself so?

Even the righteous and demon paths had always sought his favor.

A junior outstripping him in such a short time and spoiling his grand plan filled him with chilling murderous intent.

Had he not been outmatched, he would have attacked long ago.

“You are worthy to ally with this Venerable? Die!”

Lu Li, without wasting words, immediately struck with his axe.

This strike, bolstered by his two great Divine Skills and the Power of the World, made the axe light scintillatingly brilliant, as if to split the void, with bursts of sonic booms filling the air.

Even the waters beneath were split apart, forming massive waves with astounding momentum.

“Not good!”

Shang Hongyang’s face twisted in terror.

It was this very strike that had slain Soul Sorrow Demon earlier, and now it was his turn to taste it.

Furthermore, he was already tightly locked by a powerful Divine Sense, leaving him no chance to flee, and his own escape skill was inferior to Lu Li’s.

He felt his entire body tense up, a sense of impending death overwhelming him, driving him to despair.

Without time to think, he hastily sacrificed a golden shield magic treasure, preparing for his last struggle.

“Hiss…”
With mana fully activated, streaks of golden brilliance flickered, the aura quite extraordinary.

From the moment Lu Li attacked to when Shang Hongyang raised his magic treasure to defend, everything occurred in an instant.

“Boom, boom, boom…”
The Divine Weapon ruthlessly struck the golden shield.

The shield magic treasure was instantly cleaved in two, its spiritual light dimming as it fell toward the sea surface.

Immediately afterwards, the relentless Divine Weapon slashed towards Shang Hongyang.

“Ah…”
As a scream echoed, among Shang Hongyang’s terrified expression, the axe light gently passed across his neck.

A large head soared skyward, blood gushing forth, dyeing a small patch of the sea red.

Subsequently, Lu Li spat out a mouthful of Sword Qi, shattering Shang Hongyang’s corpse and Primordial Spirit into pieces, drifting away in all directions.

He executed the sequence of actions very proficiently.

This man’s strength was inferior even to Soul Sorrow’s; despite being prepared, he met his bitter end under the powerful burst of the Divine Weapon and the Power of the World.

Lu Li put away his Storage Bag and turned to flee into the tunneling light behind him.

In the following months,
Lu Li endlessly led numerous Golden Core Venerables of the righteous path, fully devoted to killing Demon Cultivators.

Quite a few Golden Core Demon Cultivators fell by Lu Li’s hand.

And an enormous amount of Purple Mansion Demon Cultivators were also killed in unison.

The Spiritual Objects in Lu Li’s hands gradually became plentiful, and under the irrigation of a great amount of Essence Blood, his Divine Weapon was already dyed blood red.

The murderous aura was pervasive, profoundly sinister.

Numerous righteous Cultivators started to regard Lu Li with even greater reverence.

At the same time, the Four Great Sects also began to fight back vigorously against the Demon Sect Sea Domain.

They not only reclaimed the sea domains they had lost before but also occupied many more.

Among them, the Flowers Sect captured the lion’s share, including part of the sea domain connected to the Heavenly Demon Sect, all falling under the command of the Flowers Sect.

Of course, these spoils of war would still need to be redistributed within the Flowers Sect later; the Lu Family was certainly going to take the lion’s share.

Other righteous Cultivators didn’t dare to question this at all.

Among all the Golden Core Venerables of the outer sea, Lu Li was now universally recognized as the first.

Furthermore, together with Liu Luoxin, they were powerful enough to traverse the outer sea, with no one daring to challenge them anymore.

Meanwhile, the Four Great Demon Sects had also holed up.

They desperately relied on the Sect’s Big Formation to hold off the righteous path’s attacks.

The situation had completely turned around.

After pursuing for a while, Lu Li did not choose to immediately attack the Demon Sect’s Big Formation.

Primarily because his Power of the World was insufficient; it took an entire month to condense just a strand of it.

It just so happened that the Flowers Sect also needed time to gradually nibble away at the opposition, so there was no rush for the time being.

…

Atop Luoxia Peak, in the cave’s secret chamber,
Lu Li sat cross-legged, took down the eight Storage Bags in front of him, and with a pierce of his Divine Sense, he removed all the foreign Divine Senses inside them.

He then poured out all the Spiritual Objects inside.

Instantly, a massive amount of Five Elements Spiritual Items and Spirit Stones accumulated throughout the entire chamber.

Densely packed together, they even buried his entire body within the Spiritual Objects.

Roughly estimating, there were billions of Spirit Stones.

Limitless radiant light burst forth in the air, even causing the Spiritual Energy to become somewhat disordered.

“This time, I really struck it rich.”

Lu Li’s face beamed with joy.

He couldn’t help but exclaim; indeed, only war was the best method of amassing wealth.

Relying on collecting by oneself, that would take forever.

With a wave of his hand, he collected all the Spiritual Objects on the ground into his inner world.

Then, his mind sank into his inner world, transforming into a silhouette made of Spiritual Energy.

With a thought, Seven-Colored Rosy Clouds fell from the sky, rushing towards the massive amount of Spiritual Objects on the central ground.

“Sss…”

As the Spiritual Objects gradually dissolved, his entire inner world began to expand dramatically.

The edge fog areas surged and churned wildly, becoming a part of the world.

“Two hundred and twenty million zhang, two hundred and forty million zhang…”

It kept expanding until it reached three hundred million zhang, then finally gradually came to a halt.

Feeling his strength increase once more, Lu Li was thoroughly satisfied.

What puzzled him was that with the same amount of Spiritual Objects, the improvement had become harder and harder.

According to his estimation, it might have expanded to three hundred and fifty million zhang this time.

“It seems the stronger I am, the weaker the effect of these low-level Spiritual Items. I must have higher-grade Spiritual Items.”

At that moment, he thought of the initial Space Crystal Cores.

That miraculous power made his inner world immensely yearn for it, and it even stimulated several strands of Power of the World.

Perhaps after breaking through to Nascent Soul later, those Space Crystal Cores would become the most important things in his inner world.

Of course, the Five Elements Spirit Root would surely be useful too.

By that time, gathering a large number of Spirit Roots to plant in the inner world could not only regulate the Spiritual Energy but also stabilize the inner world, killing several birds with one stone.

At that moment, Lu Li set his future path.

Just as Lu Li was inventorying his gains,
News of this battle instantly spread throughout the entire Dropping Dragon Sea.

Countless Cultivators were utterly shocked.

At the start of the battle, everyone thought that with the Demon Sect and Business Association joining forces, their chances of victory would greatly increase; unexpectedly, they were defeated so miserably.

At the same time, Lu Li’s strength was also made known to all Cultivators, inspiring immense awe in everyone.

The title of the first Cultivator of the outer sea thus naturally fell upon Lu Li’s head.

From then on, there was an additional mountain above everyone’s head.
