174: Lure and kill Da Luo to save Nuwa?

Lust flickered in his eyes as the man walked forward with a sinister grin, rubbing his hands together. His gaze toward Nüwa on the ground grew increasingly burning and greedy.

Soon, the man reached the area where Nüwa was, reaching out his hands to touch her.

Zizi—

At that moment, the space above distorted.

In the next second, Li Yun's figure appeared in the area beside the man and Nüwa.

"Who's there!"

Sensing Li Yun's appearance, the man's expression changed. Ignoring Nüwa for the moment, he quickly raised his hand and struck out a Wind Blade toward Li Yun's location.

"Hmm~"

As the Wind Blade approached, Li Yun immediately sensed danger.

Without hesitation, he summoned the twelve-grade creation azure lotus to protect his body.

With a loud bang, the Wind Blade exploded. As the barrier of the twelve-grade creation azure lotus descended, Li Yun's figure appeared on the spot, completely unharmed.

"creation green lotus!"

"A Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure!"

At that moment, the man's exclamation rang out. His gaze toward Li Yun—no, toward the creation green lotus—was filled with heat and greed.

"Who is this guy?"

"Why did he suddenly attack me?"

Having blocked the attack, Li Yun frowned with a rather unpleasant expression.

He had just returned and was immediately attacked. Moreover, the force of the attack was quite strong; the opponent's cultivation was at least at the stage of Great Overarching Golden Immortal Perfection.

If he hadn't summoned the twelve-grade creation azure lotus, even though his Physical Body strength was comparable to a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, he might still have been injured without preparation.

Then, Li Yun's gaze noticed the ground. Looking at the figure lying there unconscious and covered in wounds, his pupils shrank: "Eh, the person on the ground is... Nüwa?"

"What's going on? Nüwa was actually beaten into a coma with heavy injuries? After all these years, has Nüwa still not entered the Quasi-Saint realm?"

"Something's not right. Who gave this guy the nerve to actually dare to strike at Nüwa?"

At this moment, Li Yun felt he had encountered a warrior who wasn't afraid of death.

Who was Nüwa?

She was Fuxi's Reverse Scale. To dare to beat her into such a state was simply a rhythm of fighting to the death.

Most importantly, he could feel that the Origin fluctuations of Nüwa on the ground were clearly superior to this man's. So why did it turn out like this?

"Taiyi Golden Immortal!"

By now, the man had also calmed down.

His gaze focused on Li Yun. After sensing that his cultivation fluctuation was only at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level, the anger in his eyes was instantly replaced by greed.

Without any hesitation, the man directly released the pressure of his Great Overarching Golden Immortal Perfection aura, staring intently at Li Yun: "Damned brat, you've ruined my good business. You're looking for death!"

"If you're smart, give me the creation green lotus above your head, and I might consider sparing your life. Otherwise, today will be the day you die!"

Hearing this, Li Yun also snapped back to his senses.

Glancing at the greedy Cultivator, how could he not know what was happening?

Glancing at the twelve-grade creation azure lotus above his head, a cold light flashed in Li Yun's eyes as he thought to himself, "Truly a fellow looking for death!"

"Great Overarching Golden Immortal Perfection... it is indeed a bit tricky!"

"But as long as I can make him lower his guard, it's not impossible to kill him."

Thinking of this, Li Yun immediately feigned panic, took a few steps back, and said, "Fellow Daoist, it's a misunderstanding, this is a misunderstanding!"

"I also appeared here by accident. I definitely didn't mean to ruin your good business!"

"How about this: we both take a step back. You let me leave this place, and I'll act as if I saw nothing?"

"After all, if I'm not mistaken, the person on the ground is Nüwa. If this is exposed, Fellow Daoist, you..."

"Presumptuous!"

Before Li Yun could finish, the Cultivator was the first to fly into a rage: "You dare to threaten me!"

"Do you think you can still live after seeing all this?"

"Since you're so stubborn, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"I'll just kill you directly. The creation green lotus will be mine, and Nüwa will be mine too."

After speaking, the Cultivator's figure shifted and closed in on Li Yun. With a brilliant glow in his right hand, a sword at the level of a Low Grade Innate Spirit Treasure appeared in his hand.

In the next second, his figure reached Li Yun, and he slashed his longsword directly against the defense formed by the twelve-grade creation azure lotus.

Zheng—

Sparks flew. Li Yun, who was inside, had a flicker of disdain in his eyes as he thought, "Idiot. You think a mere Low Grade Innate Spirit Treasure can break the defense of my twelve-grade creation azure lotus? Do you think I'm still just in the Golden Immortal Realm?"

"Unless you're a Quasi-Saint, wanting to break the defense of the twelve-grade creation azure lotus is simply a pipe dream."

Of course, disdain aside, Li Yun didn't forget his goal. His figure swayed as he sat down on the ground, secretly controlling the light of the creation green lotus to dim slightly, and said with a terrified expression, "No, don't kill me!"

"Fellow Daoist, I'll go now, I'll leave this place right now. Please, don't kill me!"

While speaking, Li Yun scrambled up from the ground, pretending to be in a panic as he flew up, trying to escape to the outside.

"Want to leave?"

"Stay right here!"

Seeing this situation, the Cultivator grew anxious.

If he had been somewhat wary before, he had now completely lost his composure after seeing Li Yun's behavior.

Having witnessed the terrifying defensive power of the twelve-grade creation azure lotus, his desire to possess this treasure had reached its peak. How could he allow Li Yun to escape from under his nose?

Without hesitation, the man chased after Li Yun, constantly swinging his sword and slashing. A continuous stream of Sword Qi struck the light barrier condensed by the creation green lotus, attempting to break the defense and kill Li Yun inside.

"He's taken the bait!"

Feeling the man's state, Li Yun looked panicked on the surface but was sneering coldly in his heart.

Seeing the distance between the two narrowing, a purple glow flickered in Li Yun's eyes. He activated his Purple Gold Divine Pupils and directly found the flaws on the man's body.

Just as the figure approached and was frantically slashing with his sword, Li Yun seized the opportunity: "Now!"

A cold glint bloomed as the world purifying white lotus spear shot through the air. Under Li Yun's control, it directly pierced through the Cultivator's head.

Before his Primordial Spirit could even react, the power of the Law of Light burst forth from the world purifying white lotus spear, completely destroying his Primordial Spirit.

Without even having time to leave any last words, the Cultivator had already perished, leaving only a headless corpse that fell from the sky and landed in the area not far from Nüwa.

"Phew~"

With a one-hit kill, Li Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

That strike just now seemed effortless, but it was actually the limit of timing and power.

The weakness found by the Purple Gold Divine Pupils, the power of the innate supreme treasure world purifying white lotus spear, plus the full explosion of Taiyi Golden Immortal magic power and Great Witch-level Physical Body strength—only then did he achieve the feat of a one-hit kill.

If this guy had any shred of reason or caution left, Li Yun wouldn't have been able to reach this level or find the opportunity to kill him directly.

Putting away the world purifying white lotus spear, Li Yun hesitated for a moment before taking out the world purifying white lotus mask and putting it on. He activated the Qiongqi Transformation, causing his aura, appearance, and figure to change.

Having done all this, Li Yun then flew toward the area where Nüwa was, intending to investigate and, while he was at it, learn about the current situation of the Prehistoric World thousands of years later from Nüwa's mouth.
