Wang Yu
Chapter 1181 Confidence
Liu Tianhao was taken aback. Before he could react, with a "噗嗤" sound, a long blade emitting an eerie blood-colored light silently emerged from his lower abdomen, piercing through his dantian from behind.
At the same time, two palms flashing with dazzling white light appeared in front of him, pressing against his chest.
Two figures appeared like ghosts behind and in front of Liu Tianhao, launching a sneak attack.
These two were the tall and short Heavenly Fox Clan men who had been standing beside Liu Qing.
Liu Tianhao spat out a mouthful of blood, his aura rapidly declining.
"Liu Tianhao, you colluded with the Gray Realm people to plot against our master back then. Today, you shall pay with your life!" the tall man, holding the blood blade, shouted sharply.
In his angry shout, a flash of gray-white light appeared on his body, and his appearance rapidly changed. In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a middle-aged man in a green robe, none other than Liu Zizai.
The blood-colored long blade was surrounded by terrifying baleful aura and devouring power, it was the Heavenly Fox Blood Transformation Blade.
After pressing with both palms, the short man immediately retreated. However, two white palm prints appeared on Liu Tianhao's chest, as if branded on his body.
Strands of distorted white light continuously surged into Liu Tianhao's body from the white palm prints, constantly exploding and tearing apart his internal organs.
Liu Tianhao trembled violently, blood spurting from his mouth and nose.
"Fellow Daoist Liu, although a sneak attack is not the act of a gentleman, your previous behavior was too despicable, and your current strength far surpasses ours. We have no choice but to resort to this tactic," the short man said solemnly.
As he spoke, his appearance also changed rapidly, transforming into a middle-aged man in a white robe, identical in appearance to Liu Zizai and Liu Tianhao, but with a completely different demeanor, exuding a sense of righteousness and kindness.
"Liu Zizai, Liu Haoran, I didn't expect you both to return to the Heavenly Fox Clan. Indeed, only the two of you could have silently sneaked up beside me and launched a sneak attack." Liu Tianhao looked miserable, but his face was calm, still maintaining a faint smile.
Liu Qing, Liu Zizai, and Liu Haoran's expressions changed slightly upon seeing this.
However, the Liu Tianhao in front of them was indeed a physical entity. Whether it was his aura, touch, or law fluctuations, there was not the slightest abnormality. It was definitely not an illusionary clone or anything like that.
Moreover, the three of them's own aura circulation and soul fluctuations were also normal. They had not been affected by any illusions.
The three of them had already reached the pinnacle of cultivation in the Law of Illusion, so there was no way they could be mistaken about this.
Liu Zizai shouted loudly, and the blood light on the Heavenly Fox Blood Transformation Blade in his hand surged, twisting fiercely.
With a "噗嗤" sound, Liu Tianhao's body exploded, turning into a sky full of blood and minced meat.
But upon seeing this scene, Liu Zizai not only did not breathe a sigh of relief, but his expression became even more solemn.
In the next moment, his expression suddenly changed, and the blade light of the Heavenly Fox Blood Transformation Blade in his hand surged, spreading out to form a blood-colored blade screen to protect his entire body.
However, as soon as the blade screen was formed, it immediately let out a loud "轰" sound. The entire blade screen flashed wildly with blood light, and then was crushed and shattered.
Liu Zizai was sent flying along with his blade, as if he had been knocked away by something head-on.
Liu Haoran's expression also changed. A layer of flickering crystal light appeared in his eyes. He clapped both palms with a great release of white light, abruptly striking out towards the empty space in front.
Another loud "轰" sound was heard. A dazzling light flashed, and Liu Haoran was also sent flying out like a straw in the wind.
Upon seeing this scene, Liu Qing's expression changed drastically. The gray-white glow on his body surged, instantly forming a gray-white spirit domain dozens of feet in size around him.
The Heavenly Fox Clan members behind him also immediately unfolded their spirit domains or sacrificed immortal artifacts to protect themselves and the Nine-Tailed Immortal Fox True Spirit Bloodline phantom in the air, to prevent it from being stolen.
Fox Three and Elder Mu also immediately sacrificed their spirit domains and immortal artifacts to protect Liu Le'er.
Han Li was not as nervous as the Heavenly Fox Clan members. He silently activated the Nine Nether Devil Eyes and swept them around. He also released his spiritual sense, trying to find out what had sent Liu Zizai and Liu Haoran flying.
Unfortunately, no matter how he investigated, he could not find the slightest clue.
Seeing the changes in the Heavenly Fox Clan, the other clans were slightly disturbed.
Among the crowd, Bai Ze let out a soft "咦" and showed a hint of surprise.
Lichi Ma had originally been standing with Han Li. After Han Li had gone to rescue Liu Le'er, Lichi Ma had come to Bai Ze's side.
"Father, what did you see?" Lichi Ma asked in a low voice, seeing the change in Bai Ze's expression.
Bai Ze slowly waved his hand and did not speak.
……
Liu Qing waited in full battle readiness, but the anticipated attack did not come.
The space in front of him fluctuated, and a phantom figure slowly appeared. On the ground around him, the fragments of Liu Tianhao's body after the explosion became translucent, slowly merging into the void and disappearing.
The moment all the fragments disappeared, the phantom figure became solid, none other than Liu Tianhao, standing with a smile without a single trace of injury.
"Not good, it's 'Dreamlike Illusion'!" Upon seeing the scene before him, Liu Qing exclaimed and his expression changed several times.
Upon hearing Liu Qing's words, the Heavenly Fox Clan members showed shocked expressions.
"Le'er, what kind of divine power is this 'Dreamlike Illusion' that Clan Leader Liu Qing is talking about? Do you know?" Han Li asked Liu Le'er, who was looking shocked, in a low voice.
"'Dreamlike Illusion' is a legendary great divine power of the Heavenly Fox Clan, created by our clan's Holy Ancestor, the Nine-Tailed Immortal Fox. Apart from the Nine-Tailed Immortal Fox Holy Ancestor, only the Old Ancestor Liu Qi had cultivated it in our clan's countless years of history. It is rumored that as long as this divine power is used, any damage suffered will be transformed into an illusion and will not harm the main body in the slightest. It can be said to be an invincible divine power," Liu Le'er calmed her emotions and replied in a low voice.
"There is such a divine power!" Han Li was also greatly surprised upon hearing this.
Although Liu Zizai and Liu Haoran were sent flying, they were not too seriously injured. They instantly stabilized their figures and were about to counterattack. Hearing Liu Qing's words, their figures that were pouncing out also froze.
"You can actually cultivate Master's divine power... how is that possible!" Liu Zizai muttered to himself, his expression full of disbelief.
"Hehe, his physical body is in my hands. What difficulty is there in cultivating this divine power? You two unambitious fools will never be able to imagine how great his physical body is for cultivation!" Liu Tianhao showed a smug look, glanced at Liu Zizai and Liu Haoran, and said with a sneer.
Upon hearing this, Liu Zizai and Liu Haoran's expressions first sank, and then they showed anger. At the same time, the light on their bodies surged, and a layer of cyan-black fur appeared on their bodies. Sharp animal claws grew on their five fingers.
The two of them instantly transformed into half-human, half-beast forms, surrounded by a layer of gray-white light that seemed to be substantial. Their clothes fluttered in the wind, and they exuded an incomparably fierce aura, about to take action again.
Seeing this, the gray-white light on Liu Qing's body also surged.
"Enough! This place is within the Asura Blood Gate and cannot withstand too much impact. If you want to resolve your clan's grievances, wait until you leave this place." At that moment, a stern voice sounded, and Bai Ze's figure flew down.
Seeing Bai Ze come over, the four hurriedly gathered their strength and responded respectfully.
However, the gazes of Liu Qing and the other two towards Liu Tianhao were still full of hostility.
In the distance, Han Li watched Liu Tianhao and the others, his mind racing.
"Fellow Daoist Liu, could this Liu Tianhao be another Corpse Refinement of Old Ancestor Liu Qi?" Han Li asked Fox Three through voice transmission.
"That's right, Liu Tianhao is the Evil Corpse that Old Ancestor Liu Qi cut off! Moreover, you have seen this person before," Fox Three looked at Han Li and replied through voice transmission.
"I've seen him?" Han Li was stunned upon hearing this.
When he had just seen this person, he did indeed have a sense of familiarity.
"Gray Realm, Cleansing Pool!" Fox Three said faintly through voice transmission.
Han Li was stunned again upon hearing this.
"Are you saying that the giant fox at that time was not Old Ancestor Liu Qi, but this person!" His mind was so quick that he immediately understood.
"That's right, it's hateful that I was deceived by him that day and even helped him escape, which caused a great mistake!" Fox Three said with an extremely ugly expression, staring at Liu Tianhao with hatred.
"What exactly did this Liu Tianhao do to make your Heavenly Fox Clan so hate him? And Old Ancestor Liu Qi, has he really fallen?" Han Li was silent for a moment and asked through voice transmission.
"As far as I know, Old Ancestor Liu Qi has indeed fallen, and it was this Liu Tianhao who colluded with outsiders to do it!" A trace of blood flashed in Fox Three's eyes, staring intently at Liu Tianhao.
Han Li was shocked upon hearing this, and then he suddenly understood why Liu Qing and the others were so hostile to Liu Tianhao.
However, Liu Zizai was Liu Qi Old Ancestor's Self Corpse, and that Liu Haoran, in all likelihood, was Liu Qi Old Ancestor's Kind Corpse. Why would the two of them also be so hostile to Liu Tianhao? Could it be because Liu Tianhao killed Liu Qi?
As far as he knew, the Corpse Refinements and the main body should be in an adversarial relationship, but judging from Liu Zizai and Liu Haoran's attitude, they seemed to be quite loyal to Liu Qi.
"The relationship between the Three Corpses and the main body is not as simple as you know. Although the Three Corpses have the idea of killing the main body and plundering the physical body in their nature, they are also living beings with complete minds and are not impossible to tame. Moreover, that Old Ancestor Liu Qi cultivated the Law of Illusion, which is the best at manipulating people's hearts. Subduing two Corpse Refinements is nothing." A voice sounded in Han Li's heart, it was the Palm Heaven Bottle Spirit.
"Senior Bottle Spirit, you're finally awake!" Han Li's eyes lit up and he communicated with the Bottle Spirit in his heart.
"Why did you get involved in such a dangerous thing again? You even had such close contact with Dao Ancestor. If this person had attacked you, even if I used time travel again, it might not have been enough to save your life," the Bottle Spirit snorted and said.
"Senior, please forgive me. I did not expect the current situation. But now that it is so, I hope that Senior will be prepared to travel through time at any time," Han Li sighed and said.
"As long as your time law crystals are sufficient, I have no objection to traveling through time as many times as you want. Oh, your time law crystals have not only recovered the previous consumption, but have also increased a lot? No wonder you are so confident," the Bottle Spirit's surprised voice sounded in Han Li's heart.
