Chapter 1026: Chapter 1020: Dao Path Of Fear
Within the Void Refinement Space.
While Li Wei engaged Venerable Elder Yuanliang in battle, the members of the clan went to deal with Bi Shihu.
In reality, their individual strength still had a considerable gap compared to Bi Shihu, let alone a Half-step Body Integration expert like Venerable Elder Yuanliang.
Even when facing an enemy at the limit of the Void Refinement realm, the last time Li Wei fought such a battle was at the Mountain of Esoteric Stratagems, fighting alongside Li Dalong.
At that time… he exhausted his Spiritual power several times, suffered injuries, and even experienced being beaten to death.
After all, back then he was merely at the early stage of the Void Refinement realm.
The intensity and reserve of his Spiritual power were insufficient, and his Void Refinement Space was merely a False-Void Refinement space.
How could he possibly fight against the cream of the crop among Void Refinement experts?
He did, however, have a knack for escaping.
As long as he didn’t deliberately approach the opponent, the opponent couldn’t even dream of touching a single hair on his head.
But once he got close, the domain of laws grew more solid, and it felt like stepping into a swamp.
“But the me of today is no longer the me of back then.”
Right now, the enemy Li Wei faced was even stronger than the one at the Mountain of Esoteric Stratagems—the opponent was at the Half-step Body Integration realm!
As Venerable Elder Yuanliang thrust out his twin swords, countless phantoms of cultivators who had fallen under his blade surged forward, blotting out the sky and covering the earth.
They filled the area in all directions.
Only upon true contact did Li Wei understand that these phantoms were a special kind of “killing intent”—a killing intent similar to what Li Wei had felt when Li Yaozu fought his enemies.
“Is this the so-called Dao path of the Human Slaughterer?”
The Great Dao was incredibly bizarre.
Li Wei only felt that the killing intent filling his surroundings in all directions had formed substantial attacks.
They were not only attacking his Divine Soul but also attacking his laws, his Qi signature, and even his very Divine Soul!
Li Wei shifted and dodged in all directions among these human figures.
Each of the densely packed figures possessed a physical speed surpassing the Nascent Soul realm, and their movements were bizarre.
If it weren’t for his “Space” laws, allowing him to blink to empty spaces, he would have been struck long ago.
But even so, Li Wei’s heart pounded wildly.
Upon reaching a safe location, he looked down through the mist at his body. His hairs stood on end, and his heart was filled with boundless fear.
Every time a phantom brushed past him, it felt as if a hand was gently caressing his skin along the hairs of his body.
“Human Slaughterer… Human Slaughterer… What Venerable Elder Yuanliang wants to break through to is not the so-called Dao path of ‘Slaughter,’ and it doesn’t even have much to do with it.”
Li Wei pressed a hand against his rapidly beating heart. “It is terror, it is dread!”
His body trembled uncontrollably, and both his strength and his Divine Soul were being consumed bit by bit.
Li Wei narrowed his eyes, looking at the phantoms surrounding him in all directions.
Venerable Elder Yuanliang had never actually approached him; instead, he was using these phantoms to consume him.
This was also Venerable Elder Yuanliang’s “Dao.”
Equipping the Blue Moon Divine Armor.
Mirror Surface!
This was Li Wei’s Void Refinement Spiritual Technique.
Even when utilizing this technique, allowing him to be omnipresent, the moment he appeared beside Venerable Elder Yuanliang, the other party was already far away.
“Hahaha, it’s useless!”
Venerable Elder Yuanliang’s phantom appeared in all directions once more.
Venerable Elder Yuanliang had long since transitioned from his initial silence to his current unbridled arrogance.
“Spatial laws, what excellent spatial laws! Omnipresent within the Void Refinement Space.
Spatial laws can be considered one of the top-tier laws in the world. To think I could actually meet such a heaven-defying genius of the human race. Good, good, good!”
Mirror Surface!
Appearing once more, Li Wei wanted to tear off this little old man’s face, but his twin spears still only pierced through Venerable Elder Yuanliang’s phantom.
Countless phantoms surrounded Li Wei once again, and Venerable Elder Yuanliang hid behind them.
Venerable Elder Yuanliang was like a hunter hunting his prey.
“Killing a heaven-defying genius like you can help me achieve the Great Dao! I never expected to find such an unexpected, delightful surprise on this trip!”
You talk too much shit!
Li Wei didn’t say a word, only feeling the fear in his heart intensify.
He was certain this was also a part of Venerable Elder Yuanliang’s so-called “Human Slaughterer” Wu Spiritual power.
“So difficult to deal with.” Having used Mirror Surface several times and still struggling amidst the phantoms, Li Wei frowned continuously.
“It’s useless. Venerable Elder Yuanliang’s Wu Spiritual power is even partially an illusion; I can’t pinpoint his location.
He is at the Half-step Body Integration realm; his comprehension of the ‘Dao’ far exceeds mine.
And with his Spiritual power… even if I fight to the death, I am no match for him.”
“Damn it!”
Li Wei cursed inwardly.
He had already consumed a considerable amount of Spiritual power, yet he could sense that Venerable Elder Yuanliang’s Spiritual power hadn’t been consumed much at all.
Spatial laws were formidable, indeed, but how could space pierce through fear?
He was being countered.
At this moment, he finally felt the helplessness Li Yaozu experienced when facing Zhao Wan’er back then.
No, it was slightly better than Yaozu’s situation; at least he could still put up a fight.
One Thought!
As Li Wei activated his trump card, drawing upon a trace of variation he had comprehended from the laws of time, all things in the world came to a standstill.
Frowning, Li Wei launched a calm, killing strike toward Venerable Elder Yuanliang.
After One Thought ended, he had once again only pierced a phantom, while his spear swept away countless phantoms around him.
The phantoms burst like bubbles, but then Venerable Elder Yuanliang’s phantoms manifested in the world once again.
Venerable Elder Yuanliang’s face was filled with astonishment. “Time… you… you have also mastered time?!!”
Li Wei continued to attack.
Not talking much during a fight was something he learned from Li Xinri.
It was because back when Li Xinri was being beaten by the people of the Azure Cloud Prefecture, every extra word he said earned him a lot more beatings.
