Chapter 168 Bullying the Small
Inside the side hall on the east side, the atmosphere was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Li Jingyun sat in the chair, his mind churning with thoughts.
The Yang family's persistent delaying tactics have made the situation crystal clear.
People from the Heavenly Spirit Holy Land must also be in this Yang Family Headquarters.
However, Yangjiazui was extremely secretive and did not reveal the truth at all, so even if he knew the truth, he had no way to do anything about it.
"Wait another half an incense stick's time," Li Jingyun pondered to himself. "If the Yang family continues to stall like this, I will return to the Fuyou Holy Land and discuss the matter with Senior Brother Xia."
He suppressed his anxiety, circulated his spiritual energy, and slightly relieved the fatigue from days of travel.
But in that very instant of breathing, his vital energy leaked out.
This is the natural flow of energy during the circulation of spiritual power.
It was this barely perceptible fluctuation that completely exposed his location.
Located in the west side hall of the Yang Family Main Pavilion.
Jiang Li, who was on his way out to look for Li Jingyun, felt the fluctuation again and sneered inwardly.
He followed the direction of the flowing energy, concealing his own aura as he slowly moved forward.
The Grand Elder of the Heavenly Spirit Holy Land showed no anger on his face, but instead slowly revealed a smile.
It's truly a case of "searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly."
Lord Luo Tianming was furious because the integration envoys were being intercepted and killed one after another, and the integration of the immortal dynasties had stalled.
He was just worried about not finding any leverage or breakthrough for the Taoist temple when the main culprit delivered himself to his doorstep.
Killing Li Jingyun is tantamount to severing one of the Dao Academy's arms, which will not only deter the Fuyou Holy Land but also remove a major obstacle from the road ahead.
Jiang Li suppressed even the fluctuations of his spiritual energy, and even concealed his figure. Outsiders, even if they were in front of him, would not be able to sense any fluctuations from Jiang Li, nor could they see him.
This is a realm beyond the Nascent Soul stage, the Profound Realm.
This realm allows one to wield the immense power of heaven and earth and comprehend some of the laws of heaven and earth. It is the pinnacle of the mortal world, and unless someone of the same realm deliberately observes him, no one will discover him.
If the Immortal Realm still exists, then advancing to the next level at this stage would mean ascending to immortality!
Jiang Li has lived for nearly several thousand years and understands one principle deeply.
When a lion hunts a rabbit, it uses its full strength.
The Yang family is a powerful force in the Nine Provinces, with spatial arrays covering the entire city. If a fight were to break out here, even he might not be able to escape unscathed, and he would also offend the Yang family.
What he needed to do was to enter the side hall where Li Jingyun was silently, and suppress him instantly with absolute power, leaving no future trouble!
Jiang Li walked silently along the corridor, step by step, toward the east side hall.
The disciple who came to greet them found the room empty and assumed that Jiang Li had already left.
But who could have imagined that this seemingly calm and composed Elder Tianling had already harbored a murderous intent in his heart?
In just a few breaths, Jiang Li was already standing outside the side hall of Li Jingyun.
The palace doors were tightly closed, and the spatial restriction patterns flowed slightly. These were the restrictions set up by the Yang family to isolate internal and external sounds and divine senses.
To outsiders, this restriction was enough to prevent ordinary cultivators from spying on it.
But in front of a powerful figure like Jiang Li, it was no different from thin paper.
He stood outside the door, his eyes slightly closed, and with a gentle probe of his divine sense, he could see the scene inside the hall clearly.
Li Jingyun sat upright on a jade chair, his eyes closed as he regulated his breathing, the Dragon Roar Sword lying diagonally beside him, a hint of fatigue between his brows.
He was full of spirit, his sharpness was concealed, but his extraordinary talent was still hard to hide.
"What a pity."
Jiang Li let out a soft sigh.
"One of the two prodigies of the Dao Academy, no matter how high his talent or how deep his foundation, he is still just a junior. A genius who has not grown up is not a genius at all."
"Today, I will use your life to establish the prestige of my Heavenly Spirit Immortal Dynasty."
He slowly raised his right hand, his palm gathering magical power, and a faint wisp of fortune quietly condensed within it.
One strike is enough.
Inside the hall, Li Jingyun's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
A chill ran down his spine from the depths of his soul, startling him without warning and making the hairs on his body stand on end.
"Who?!"
Li Jingyun suddenly opened his eyes, and the Dragon Roar Sword was instantly drawn, its light like a thunderclap.
He suddenly looked up at the tightly closed palace doors.
There was no one outside the door; it was eerily quiet.
But that suffocating killing intent, like a tidal wave, enveloped him from all directions.
Not a member of the Yang family.
It is a sacred land of heaven and earth!
In a flash, Li Jingyun understood everything.
He was discovered by the people of the Heavenly Spirit Holy Land.
The important figure from the Heavenly Spirit Holy Land not only sensed his presence, but also stormed right outside the door!
"not good!"
Li Jingyun's expression changed drastically. His spiritual power erupted, and he unleashed a powerful strike with the Dragon Roar Sword. The clouds parted and the mist dispersed, and the sword intent soared into the sky.
He wanted to break out of the palace and escape!
The fact that the opponent could approach silently and give him such a premonition of death meant that their cultivation level was definitely far above his!
No matter how arrogant Li Jingyun was, at this moment he only thought about escaping for his life!
But he was fast, and the person outside the door was even faster.
A cold glint flashed in Jiang Li's eyes, and she no longer concealed it.
"Bang!!!"
A soft sound, like the booming of the Dao.
The tightly closed doors of the Liuyun Side Hall vanished silently in an instant, as if directly erased by a terrifying force.
A palm print, carrying the power to suppress heaven and earth, lightly struck Li Jingyun inside the hall.
Before the palm strike even arrived, the entire space of the side hall was completely locked down.
The Yang family's spatial restriction array crumbled like paper before this palm strike.
To outsiders, the palm print was only the size of a palm, but in Li Jingyun's eyes, it was so big that it blotted out the sky. He tried desperately to escape, but it was as if he was just standing still!
Li Jingyun's pupils shrank sharply; there was no escape.
Jiang Li's figure slowly appeared at the broken palace gate, her long robes fluttering without wind.
His face was calm, his eyes indifferent, as if he were looking down at an ant.
"Li Jingyun, it's time for your academy to pay the price for its arrogance."
He spoke calmly, his voice laced with disdain and murderous intent.
"You intercepted my Heavenly Spirit Envoy and disrupted the unity of the Immortal Dynasty. Do you think you can leave now?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the palm print landed on Li Jingyun's head.
Li Jingyun felt that all the light in the surrounding world was absorbed by the palm print, and the world around him was pitch black, with only the terrifying palm print that blotted out the sky slowly descending.
In this desperate situation, Li Jingyun's spiritual energy was sluggish and extremely difficult to mobilize. This palm strike left him with no strength to resist!
Under the absolute suppression of his realm and the power of the laws, his Dao techniques seemed to malfunction!
Li Jingyun stared intently at the palm print, his life hanging by a thread!
