Chapter 282

    The size of the blood giant continued to increase at an alarming rate. Inside the blood-red formation, apart from the blood giant, there was no second figure. The demonic cultivators who had ascended to the sky earlier had now concealed themselves, their whereabouts unknown.

    “These individuals are quite cunning. To set up a formation to break our formation, they must have been able to arrange it quickly and launch it once Li Su returned. They’ve probably been lurking here for quite some time.”

    The green-clad young woman continued to analyze the situation for Saintess Zixue. Her mind was indeed very sharp, and her intelligence matched her beauty.

    Break the formation with another formation! This was indeed the plan of those demonic cultivators. Decades ago, Li Su, at the peak of Refinement Void cultivation, faced off against two Refinement Void cultivators and achieved one death and one injury as a result. Although the details of the battle didn’t spread, the turmoil in the Elemental Magnetic Barrier at that time was clearly visible. If there had always been demonic cultivators lurking in the Northern Territory, there was a hundred percent chance that they observed it as well. Even if they didn’t observe it directly, once these demonic cultivators infiltrated, they could gather information about Su City by approaching cultivators who witnessed the turbulence in the Elemental Magnetic Barrier at that time. In Su City, cultivators were coming from several different territories every day. These cultivators themselves were also interested in learning about Li Su’s exploits from the Northern Territory cultivators. So, the difficulty of these demonic cultivators inquiring about the situation was not very high. After these demonic cultivators gathered some fragmentary information, even if they didn’t know the specific details, they should have been able to make some educated guesses; therefore, they were extremely cautious. They had chosen to break the formation with another formation.

    This way, even if Li Su triggered the natural Wind and Fire Formation in retaliation, it would not affect them. It was a reasonable choice. Decades ago, those two Refinement Void cultivators were extremely cautious despite not knowing anything. One didn’t become a Refinement Void cultivator without being astute and skilled. In a way, demonic cultivators who achieved the refined void stage were even more extraordinary than most conventional refined void cultivators.

    On the side, Saintess Zixue listened to the young woman’s analysis in silence, gazing into the sky. She didn’t say anything. She was still searching for the members of the Blood Temple, but due to her lack of expertise in formations, she couldn’t locate them. Not being able to find them wasn’t a problem, as her strength allowed her to overcome the situation with sheer force.

    As a saintess of the sacred sect, her value as a refined void cultivator was incredibly high. Her First-Rank Ice Spirit Root not only accelerated her cultivation of ice-based techniques but also greatly enhanced the power of her ice-related spells. Even the trump card from the Xuantian Academy was at her disposal. Despite the Blood Temple’s leader being a Refinement Void cultivator and the large formation, Saintess Zixue was confident that she could break it with a single strike.

    The Li family’s large formation continued to tremble. “Husband, do you need me to inform the Peak Master?” Many of Li Su’s concubines offered their assistance. Tiantian, the one speaking, had confidence in Li Su, given Peak Master Dieyun’s presence at the Li family, who was also at the peak of Refinement Void cultivation.

    Peak Master Dieyun was likely not in the midst of a formal breakthrough to the Unity stage yet and could certainly lend a hand. Li Su’s other concubines had unwavering confidence in him, believing there was nothing he couldn’t handle.

    “Father, Sweetie wants to grow up quickly to help Father defeat the bad guys,” Li Tian said earnestly. Li Su patted her head gently and assured her to watch him defeat the adversaries.

    The moment to act had arrived, as Li Su had exposed the demonic formation. His figure moved, appearing outside the large formation. At this point, the blood giant had already grown to several thousand feet tall. If it continued to expand at this rate, it might soon rival the height of the vast Mangkang Mountains.
