292: revenge

At the Spirit Mine, due to Zhou Luo's actions, some Lu Family Cultivators remained, their faces filled with grief as they collected the bodies of those who had died.

At this moment, Zhou Luo appeared again.

He coldly stared at the Cultivators below, thinking of how his eldest son had died here. His Shuofeng Magic Sword in his right hand ignited a towering inferno.

He swung his sword, and his Foundation Establishment Realm magic power poured out like a tide, completely overwhelming the area below.

The remaining Lu Family Cultivators had no room to resist and could only watch as the inferno descended, ultimately being burned to ashes.

In the blink of an eye, the entire Spirit Mine was left with only the ordinary people who mined and the Lin Family Cultivators who had been imprisoned.

Zhou Luo released the Lin Family Cultivators and had them clean up the battlefield.

He himself hurried towards Maple Leaf City.

...

Outside Maple Leaf City, Cultivators from the Lu Family and Zhang Family were stationed.

Perhaps for prolonged combat, they had even temporarily erected a row of tent-like structures.

In the largest of these structures, the Foundation Establishment Expert who had previously fought against the Lin Family was chatting with the Zhang Family's representative.

"That old fellow from the Lin Family has some strength," Lu Haotian said in a deep voice.

He was the person who had invaded the Spirit Mine with a Talisman Treasure during Zhou Luo's Spirit Mine incident.

Now that he had successfully reached Foundation Establishment, transforming into the Lu Family Head, he had given the Talisman Treasure he held to one of his direct descendants.

He just hadn't expected that person would die at the Spirit Mine in a life-for-life exchange with Zhou Changan.

Knowing this, he was enraged and furiously attacked Maple Leaf City, which also drew out the Lin Family's Foundation Establishment Old Ancestor.

Their previous clash, although he was slightly inferior, did not leave him feeling any sense of defeat.

After all, he had only just advanced to the Foundation Establishment Realm; given enough Time, he could easily crush the opponent.

"The Lin Family is just a spent force, not worth fearing," the Zhang Family representative said with a chuckle.

Lu Haotian's eyes slightly darkened: "If not for that great formation, the Lin Family would have been wiped out long ago."

"But it doesn't matter. The Old Ancestor will arrive in three days. By then, Maple Leaf City will ultimately belong to my Lu Family."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone suddenly rushed in, their expression panicked: "Bad news, Family Head, someone is heading this way and has even killed our scouts."

"Who is so bold? Could it be the Wang Family?" Lu Haotian asked with a livid face.

"It's unclear for now," the person knelt on the ground, not even daring to lift their head.

"Hmph, this Family Head will go take a look."

Lu Haotian abruptly stood up and walked outside.

The Zhang Family representative also quickly followed, coming outside.

They saw that the Lu Family's formation in the distance was in a state of chaos.

A figure was slaughtering fiercely, advancing with great momentum.

Lu Haotian looked disdainful and shot up into the sky.

He hadn't expected the Lu Family to be suddenly attacked by someone else, but in his eyes, the opponent was merely an ant trying to shake a tree.

After all, no matter what, could they be stronger than him, a Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator?

In the blink of an eye, he had rushed to the chaotic area, only to see a person holding a magic sword casually wave it, and several Cultivators died under the sword light. The surroundings were already covered in corpses.

Immortal Sect Disciple?

Looking at the opponent's young appearance, Lu Haotian furrowed his brow.

He had already thoroughly investigated the Lin Family's background.

In this attack on the Lin Family, their Lu Family and Zhang Family had reached an agreement: facing Immortal Sect Disciples, they could only capture them alive, not kill them.

After all, they were Disciples who had the chance to enter the Immortal Sect's Inner Sect, and their Master was a Golden Core True Person, someone they could not afford to provoke.

If it weren't for the Immortal Sect tacitly allowing their actions this Time, the background of these two people alone would have been enough to deter the Lu Family and Zhang Family.

If it was indeed that Immortal Sect Disciple from the Lin Family, he really couldn't kill the opponent easily.

Although he couldn't kill them, he could still capture them alive and hand them over to the Immortal Sect.

With this thought, Lu Haotian sneered, his gaze locked onto the opponent.

He calmly released his Foundation Establishment Realm pressure, which surged like a flood, transforming into a large mountain that descended.

Feeling the oppressive pressure that came at him, the person on the ground did not retreat but advanced, as if they didn't care about him at all, ignoring everything and charging into the crowd.

Lu Haotian's face darkened.

Is this guy not afraid of death?

However, the moment the Foundation Establishment pressure fell, it was easily resolved by a certain power.

Immediately after, that figure rushed out from the ground, walked through the air, and appeared before him.

Lu Haotian felt as if he was facing a great enemy, his eyes fixed on the opponent.

Foundation Establishment Expert?

Could he be the Immortal Sect's reinforcement?

Impossible, the Immortal Sect said they wouldn't interfere.

Lu Haotian looked at the opponent's appearance, growing increasingly puzzled.

At this moment, Zhou Luo stood with his sword, killing intent surfacing in his eyes.

"Who are you?" Lu Haotian asked in a deep voice.

"Zhou Luo," Zhou Luo said coldly.

Hearing this familiar name, Lu Haotian's face changed drastically: "You've successfully reached Foundation Establishment?"

Zhou Luo did not respond. Gentle wind surged around him, and he drifted out, his Shuofeng Magic Sword in hand emitting a dazzling crimson light, and a scorching aura permeated the air.

Inferno Burning the Sky!

With a swing of his sword, endless flames roared out, carrying terrifying power.

This peak Qi Training realm sword art unleashed extremely formidable power in the hands of a Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator.

Lu Haotian was greatly alarmed and quickly summoned his magic tool.

It was a gilded great hammer. He gripped the hammer and smashed it towards the opponent, magic power converging on the hammer body, erupting in golden light.

Although he was surprised that the opponent had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, being in the same realm, he had no fear of the opponent at all.

Boom—

In an instant, the golden light mass collided with the inferno, producing a violent sound.

The powerful energy fluctuations caused even the Cultivators on the ground to feel their hearts pound, and they had to release their protective spiritual light to block the impact.

Otherwise, they would be instantly sent flying by the force.

This was a clash between Foundation Establishment Experts.

After the anomaly disappeared, Zhou Luo stepped forward, his magic sword raising a brilliant profound yellow sword light.

The sword light flickered, and a heavy aura permeated the air, making people feel extremely suppressed.

Lu Haotian tightly gripped the gilded great hammer, feeling his body heavy and his spiritual energy sluggish. He forced himself to activate his power and struck out again.

Bang—

The sword light collided with the giant hammer, and Lu Haotian was forced back dozens of steps.

He looked at the opponent in surprise, sensing extremely terrifying power from the formidable Cultivation Methods.

Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivators like them, without the support of an Immortal Sect, only learned peak Qi Training realm Cultivation Methods and were not yet qualified to access Foundation Establishment Cultivation Methods.

In the clash of two peak-grade Cultivation Methods, Zhou Luo's comprehension of the Five Elements Swordplay was deeper than Lu Haotian's comprehension of his own Cultivation Methods.

Moreover, the quality of the Five Elements Swordplay Cultivation Methods was clearly superior to the opponent's.

Not only the Cultivation Methods, but even the magic sword in Zhou Luo's hand was of higher quality than the opponent's gilded great hammer.

Feeling the gap in these things, Lu Haotian became increasingly puzzled.

Where did this guy get these good things?

Although he was confused, he was unwilling to show weakness.

He thought that the opponent must have just broken through recently and definitely hadn't had Time for actual combat. He could easily crush the opponent with his combat experience.
