Searching for the best path, starting from Renjia Town

Chapter 144: Entry, Spell Book

"Li Kunshan! You're so brave!"

With a delicate cry, a stone door opened, and a little girl, about fourteen or fifteen years old, dressed in red and delicate as a piece of jade, walked out. Her appearance was completely inconsistent with hers, and she looked at Li Kunshan with a sinister look on her face.

Next to him was Chu Chenzi who had escaped earlier.

"Yue Qiluo."

Looking at this little Lolita, Li Kunshan smiled slightly.

"We finally meet."

"You destroyed all the wealth I've accumulated over such a long time!"

The soul-locking formation was broken, and Yue Qiluo stared at Li Kunshan with her big eyes full of resentment.

"I was so kind to you, and you actually came to rob my lair!"

"A good intention? You're kidding me. You tried to kill me several times, and you actually said it was a good intention."

"That's because you don't know what's good for you!"

Yue Qiluo took a deep breath, temporarily suppressed her anger, and continued.

"If you are willing to surrender to me, I can spare your life!"

"If you surrender, then surrender. And even put it back under your feet, your taste is really perverted."

Li Kunshan snorted lightly, his face suddenly turned cold, and he raised his hand and a palm lightning struck Yue Qiluo.

Yue Qiluo had been on guard against Li Kunshan and immediately dodged to the side.

"Li Kunshan! You're looking for death!"

Yue Qiluo shouted angrily, raised her hand and a large number of paper people flew out and rushed towards Li Kunshan.

Huh~!

Li Kunshan opened his eyes wide and cast the Fire Bell Spell, sending a huge stream of flames spraying towards the paper man.

Wherever the flames passed, the paper figures retreated.

"Death!"

When the flames subsided, Yue Qiluo took the opportunity to rush up and hit Li Kunshan with a palm.

Bang~!

Li Kunshan's face was serious. He raised his hand to block the palm strike and was about to fight back with his other hand.

Swish~!

But at this moment, Chu Chenzi also rushed up and slashed across the waist with a sword.

Li Kunshan had to switch from offense to defense. A hatchet appeared in his hand and blocked Chu Chenzi's sword with a clang.

Although the attack missed, Yue Qiluo and Chu Chenzi did not give up. They continued to attack Li Kunshan fiercely.

"fight?"

Li Kunshan blinked his eyes. They were all masters of magic, but they were actually fighting with fists and kicks. Wasn't this a joke?

But he soon realized that it was not that simple.

Not to mention that Chenzi was possessed by evil spirits and could easily tear apart the sword of Tiangang Great Toad Qi. There was a ball of red light in Yue Qiluo's palm. If she was injured, it would definitely be very bad.

An inch shorter means an inch more dangerous. The two men were fighting in close combat. For Li Kunshan, every move became extremely dangerous.

In particular, Yue Qiluo can also distract herself by manipulating the paper figures, launching sneak attacks from all directions from time to time.

"Some trouble."

Even though Li Kunshan's body was flashing with lightning, and he used lightning to stimulate the activity of his body, he was unable to focus on both.

"Li Kunshan! Aren't you very powerful? Now I'm fighting two of you at once. Let's see how arrogant you can be!"

Chu Chenzi was still angry after being beaten by Li Kunshan before, but when he saw that Li Kunshan was struggling to hold on, he couldn't help feeling proud.

"That's right, it's really difficult to fight two people at the same time."

Li Kunshan pondered for a moment, then turned to Yue Qiluo and ignored Chu Chenzi.

"Chance!"

Seeing that Li Kunshan had left an opening, Chu Chenzi showed excitement and immediately stabbed with a sword.

Bang~!

But unexpectedly, a hand suddenly stretched out from Li Kunshan's body, holding the hatchet, and blocked the sword.

"This is……"

Chu Chenzi was stunned. What kind of magic spell was this!
One head and three arms?
That's not right. The five fingers of this hand are white and slender, like jade carvings. It is clearly a woman's hand.

Hurrah~!

While he was stunned, Li Kunshan's coat suddenly flew out, and then a hand stretched out from the coat, holding a hatchet, and stabbed straight at Chu Chenzi.

Chu Chenzi was startled again and stepped back in a hurry, while blocking with his magic sword.

However, he did not expect that the opponent's swordsmanship was extremely strong and his moves were swift. He chopped at him from different angles with several consecutive strikes.

Dang Dang Dang~!

Chu Chenzi tried his best and barely blocked it, while temporarily keeping some distance between them.

"This is……"

Only then did he have time to take a closer look, and saw that under Li Kunshan's coat was a woman as beautiful as a fairy.

Where did this woman come from?

Swish~!

Before he had time to think about it, the other party rushed up and raised his hand to strike again.

Compared to before, it is actually a few points faster.

Chu Chenzi's face was filled with shock. He dared not be distracted by anything else and fought with all his might.

"Clone Technique?"

After taking a look at Chu Chenzi and then at Li Kunshan who had lost his coat, Yue Qiluo frowned.

The woman had abundant energy and sharp moves, and her strength seemed to be no less than Li Kunshan's.

If it was simply a clone technique, how could it be so powerful?

Looking at Li Kunshan opposite her, Yue Qiluo had a solemn expression. This young Taoist priest from Zhengyi had such powerful methods that even she couldn't see through them.

"It's two against two now."

Number Two was more than enough to deal with Fu Chenzi, so Li Kunshan didn't need to worry at all. He smiled and joked, looking at the opposite side. Now he only needed to concentrate on dealing with Yue Qiluo.

Boom~!

An inch shorter means an inch more danger, and the same was true for Li Kunshan. He struck Yue Qiluo with his palm, but it missed, and a bolt of lightning shot out.

Yue Qiluo was also startled by the palm thunder that was close to her face, but fortunately she reacted in time and avoided it.

However, in this case, no one dared to be careless when facing Li Kunshan.

"You forced me to do this!"

After more than ten moves, Yue Qiluo didn't gain any advantage at all and almost suffered losses several times. Her eyes turned cold and her face showed fierceness.

As he spoke, he reached out and hit Li Kunshan again.

Li Kunshan instinctively defended himself, but the next moment, an invisible force passed through his arm and pierced straight into his forehead.

Divine mind attack!

Li Kunshan realized it instantly, and at the same time, almost instinctively, he used his own spiritual thoughts to build a defense and completely envelop his soul.

Buzz~!

It was like a steel needle, stabbing Li Kunshan's soul fiercely. Fortunately, Li Kunshan's spiritual defense blocked it.

However, Yue Qiluo's spiritual power was obviously superior to Li Kunshan's. Although it was only condensed into a needle, the impact was so strong that it caused Li Kunshan's spiritual shield to fluctuate.

If the defending side had not had the relative advantage, I'm afraid their soul would have been damaged.

"Ah~!"

Although he did not suffer any loss, Li Kunshan still screamed, his face full of pain and his hands covering his head.

"Hmph! I'll let you do it with me..."

Yue Qiluo snorted coldly, a smug look on her face, but before she could finish her words, she saw a strong bolt of lightning coming towards her.

His eyes widened instantly and he retreated frantically.

Boom~!

But how could it be faster than thunder and lightning? With a loud bang, Yue Qiluo was knocked back more than ten meters.

Immediately afterwards, several charred paper figures fell in front of her.

If she hadn't used the paper man to block it in time, she would have been seriously injured even if she hadn't been killed.

"You are not afraid of divine attacks!"

Yue Qiluo reacted and her face was filled with resentment again.

"Asshole! You lied to me!"

"You've lived to this age, and you don't even understand that deception is the best strategy in war."

Li Kunshan sneered and raised his hand to shoot out several more lightning bolts.

Yue Qiluo dodged several of them and blocked two with a paper man.

Li Kunshan's Thunder Art has been cultivated to the sixth level, but to deal with a character like Yue Qiluo, the ordinary lightning released by himself is not enough.

As for attracting thunder from the sky, we are underground here and cannot be struck by it.

Losing the geographical advantage was very disadvantageous to Li Kunshan.

"Your thunder technique this time seems much weaker than last time."

After several times, Yue Qiluo looked at Li Kunshan and suddenly chuckled.

Li Kunshan frowned secretly, he was discovered. The old man was cunning and clever, Yue Qiluo was simply an old fox, she saw the clues so quickly.

"In that case!"

Yue Qiluo shouted coldly again and immediately released all the paper figures.

Wow~!

The paper figures quickly gathered together and in the blink of an eye turned into a giant puppet like the one before.

Boom~!

The giant paper puppet ran up and punched Li Kunshan.

Li Kunshan didn't dare to take it head-on and dodged in a hurry.

"Haha~! Let's see what tricks you have up your sleeve!"

Seeing Li Kunshan being chased by the giant paper puppet and having to run around, Yue Qiluo couldn't help but laugh triumphantly.

But she didn't notice that as Li Kunshan dodged, the giant paper puppet was getting farther and farther away from her unknowingly.

"almost."

Li Kunshan's face darkened, and he held the talisman sword in his hand and used all his strength to activate it on the giant paper puppet.

Swish~!

Three huge sword lights flew out, two horizontally and one vertically slashing at the giant paper puppet, instantly splitting it into six pieces.

Boom~!

With its two legs cut off, the giant paper puppet collapsed with a loud bang, and a large number of paper figures flew around under the huge impact.

"Ok?"

I didn't expect Li Kunshan to have such a magical weapon, but compared to the thunderbolt, it only temporarily defeated the giant paper puppet. Yue Qiluo sneered and was about to cast the spell again to gather the energy.

Ah~Ah~!

But unexpectedly, Li Kunshan waved the talisman sword again, and there was a burst of ghost howling. A large number of evil spirits suddenly poured out and rushed straight towards the paper people.

Compared with paper figures, there are far fewer evil spirits in the talisman sword, but their individual strength is stronger, especially the three evil babies and the female evil spirit.

Besides, Li Kunshan didn't want to use these evil spirits to defeat Yue Qiluo's paper figures, he just wanted to restrain them temporarily.

Crack~Boom~!

The next moment, lightning flashed all over Li Kunshan's body, and with a roar, he turned into a ray of lightning and rushed straight towards Yue Qiluo.

"Damn it... huh? No!"

Yue Qiluo was angry because the paper man was entangled by the evil spirit. Suddenly, she saw Li Kunshan, who had transformed into lightning and was rushing towards her. She was stunned at first, and then her face changed drastically and she looked terrified.

It was too late to dodge, so he let out a roar and subconsciously raised his arms to block.

Boom~!

With a loud bang, the lightning flashed like a sharp sword, piercing through Yue Qiluo's body.

More than ten meters away, lightning struck the ground and turned into Li Kunshan's original appearance again.

Transform into Thunder, the sixth level of the Thunder Art.

Transforming himself into thunder was extremely powerful, but it also put a huge burden on himself, especially for Li Kunshan at this time, who no longer had a strong self-healing option.

Therefore, he would not easily use this method unless it was necessary.

"Bah~!"

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Li Kunshan took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the surging blood and qi.

He glanced back, a smile playing on his lips.

Yue Qiluo was seen standing there, with a charred hole the size of a bowl on her chest and the arms that were protecting her body.

[Kill Yue Qiluo and obtain the entry "Hide Your Strength and Bide Your Time (Purple)"! ]

Then, the system prompt sounded.

Li Kunshan breathed a sigh of relief instantly. Since the prompt had appeared, it meant that Yue Qiluo was dead.

"its not right."

But then, Li Kunshan was stunned again.

Why is there only one purple entry?
For a boss like Yue Qiluo, it wouldn't be too much even if he dropped an orange attribute.

You know, in the original novel, she is said to have an immortal soul.

Thinking of this, Li Kunshan suddenly looked at Yue Qiluo's body with a serious expression.

Bang~!

While he was thinking, with a muffled thud, Chu Chenzi was knocked to the ground by the Second Blood God Son.

To be honest, it is extremely difficult for him to persist until now.

"Damn it! I'm going to kill you!"

Chu Chenzi, who was already seriously injured, kept roaring like a madman.

Looking at Chuchenzi who had been completely possessed by the devil, Li Kunshan frowned and signaled to No. 2 with his eyes.

Tsk~!

The second knife flashed, cutting Chuchenzi's throat and sending him to his death.

Yue Qiluo's control had vanished, but Chuchenzi hadn't regained consciousness. Clearly, it was his own fall into the devil's way, and it had nothing to do with others.

Speaking of which, Chuchenzi is also a genuine Taoist. Instead of letting him live like a half-human, half-ghost, it is better to help him be liberated and enter reincarnation early.

[Kill Chuchenzi and obtain the entry Darkening Ten Times Stronger (Purple)! ]

It is also a purple entry.

After all, he is the abbot of Qingyun Temple, which is consistent with Chuchenzi's identity.

Looking at the two corpses, Li Kunshan sighed and checked the entries in detail.

[Hide your light and bide your time: Concentrate your divine light, nourish your mind, improve your understanding of Taoism, and better benefit your primordial spirit.]

[Evil transformation is ten times stronger: the power of practicing evil magic is even greater! ]

"This……"

After reading it, Li Kunshan couldn't help scratching his head.

In fact, keeping a low profile is similar to being introverted and refined. Both are terms that assist in spiritual practice. In comparison, keeping a low profile focuses more on the primordial spirit.

After all, Yue Qiluo claims to have an immortal soul, and her strength lies in her primordial spirit.

This entry is just right for Li Kunshan now.

But this blackening is ten times stronger. Although the effect is good and direct, it is completely incompatible with Li Kunshan.

How could he, a disciple of Zhengyi, be capable of sorcery and turn evil?

"never mind."

Not all entries are suitable, so Li Kunshan simply stopped thinking about it.

"where."

Then, he looked at the cave again with excitement on his face.

According to the TV series, this cave is not only Yue Qiluo's lair, but also contains her secret magic manual! Although they are mostly evil spells, they are all powerful methods!

A stone from another mountain can be used to polish a jade. Even if you don't practice it, it always does no harm to understand it. Li Kunshan started searching immediately.

The cave is neither big nor small, and it has various mechanisms and secret doors, so it is not easy to find a book.

But then again, it's just looking for something.

"found it!"

About two hours later, Li Kunshan found a booklet in a secret compartment, which turned out to be Yue Qiluo's secret book of evil magic!

"……Walk."

After getting the things, Li Kunshan flipped through a few pages and was very excited, then left immediately.

In addition to this secret book, there is actually another powerful thing in this cave, a kind of flesh-eating beetle, which is very powerful in groups.

However, this vicious insect would attack if it encountered a living person, making it difficult to control. Yue Qiluo also placed a lot of feces in the cave to mask the smell, so the beetles stopped causing trouble.

After all, they are just some small bugs, and there are not enough of them to make a big difference.

Another thing is that it will melt once it comes into contact with sunlight.

Li Kunshan thought about it and decided that there was no need for that for the time being, so he decided to let these little bugs stay here.

"This way."

After leaving the cave, Li Kunshan did not leave immediately, but returned to Qingyun Temple with Chuchenzi's body.

Chu Chenzi was buried in the backyard of the Taoist temple. After all, before he became a demon, he was a pretty good Taoist priest.

After performing a simple ritual for Chuchenzi, Li Kunshan came to Chuchenzi's quiet room.

"Have it!"

After searching for a while, he found a secret book, which recorded the spells and magics of Qingyun Temple!

They are all about the mysterious sect, but this one is suitable for Li Kunshan.

As for stealing magic, that's not what an upright person would do. After Chuchenzi's death, the Qingyun Temple lineage was effectively extinct in this world. Rather than letting these spells be lost, it would be better to let Li Kunshan inherit them. I'm sure the Grandmaster wouldn't blame me.

Why do the people at Qingyun Temple like to keep secret manuals? It's completely different from what people are saying orally.

But it just happened to be a good deal for Li Kunshan.

"Set off."

After a long time, it was already dark. Li Kunshan packed up and set off again.

According to the itinerary, we detoured to Hehuan Town and headed to Longhu Mountain.
