CHAPTER 631: CHAPTER 321 SOUL SEARCH

Li Yunjing brought Zhu Wanyun and the others into the courtyard. They saw five people dressed in black robes, wearing bamboo hats to cover their faces, making it impossible to discern their age or gender.

The cultivation of these five individuals was not high, all were at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm.

The five joined forces to set up a simple ’Five Elements Array,’ trying their best to resist the attacks of Li Linzi and Gu Wenzhuo.

However, their situation was already precarious.

An externally weak Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator of the Shenxiao Dao Sect was still a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator!

Li Linzi and Gu Wenzhuo might be nothing in Li Yunjing’s eyes, but to these five demon cultivators, they were unbeatable experts.

In just over a dozen rounds, the five were knocked to the ground, heavily injured.

If Li Linzi and Gu Wenzhuo hadn’t wanted to keep them alive, they would’ve already killed them with their great mana.

’Observatory Master! These five demon cultivators have been subdued!’

After handling the enemies, Li Linzi and Gu Wenzhuo came up to Li Yunjing to report.

The two were not afraid that these five demon minions would escape; they’d mastered their attack force well, injuring them without killing them, ensuring there was no possibility of escape!

’Good!’

Li Yunjing nodded, taking a few steps forward, hands behind his back, overlooking the five demon cultivators lying on the ground.

’Tell me your origins.’

Li Yunjing asked coldly.

’Heh, heh! We’ve already lost hope of living after being captured by you old Daoists. Do you think we will tell you anything?’

A man lying on the ground, struggling to get up, said hoarsely.

’Refuse to speak? You have no choice!’

Before Li Yunjing finished speaking, he lifted his arm slightly, grabbing the man with an invisible force by the neck, pulling him up to himself.

’What are you doing!’

The demon cultivator was shocked, exclaiming immediately as he sensed danger.

But at that moment, being lifted by Li Yunjing, he had no strength to resist. Li Yunjing’s palm covered his brow, and instantly, a force from the outside entered his sea of consciousness, causing it to surge violently, making his three souls and seven spirits feel like they were about to fly out.

’Soul Search!’

At this time, everyone—friend or foe—looked at Li Yunjing with awe, fearing the ruthless measures of this National Preceptor.

In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, high-tier cultivators relied on their powerful divine souls to soul search low-tier cultivators. This method was extremely cruel, even if the person being searched wasn’t killed, their divine soul would suffer significant damage, leading them either to death or madness.

’Ah...’

At this moment, everyone saw the demon cultivator twisting like a snake, issuing the most harrowing screams.

The misery felt in those screams made the others’ scalp tingle.

The demon cultivator tried to calm his mind, but a mere Qi Refining Realm cultivator couldn’t possibly escape from Li Yunjing’s grasp.

If that were the case, what cultivation or Dao would there be for Li Yunjing?

At this moment, the faces of the four demon cultivators lying beside him flared with fear, and one tried to get up but was heavily injured by Li Linzi and Gu Wenzhuo, enabling no movement. They stretched their arms in vain, unable to help their fellow sect members.

’Bang!’

After the soul search, Li Yunjing sneered at the person before him. Suddenly, he applied force at his fingertips, channeling true essence, and instantly crushed the man’s skull, killing him on the ground.

After killing one, Li Yunjing’s figure moved, vanishing from the spot like a ghost, and then appearing before the four fallen, performing soul searches on them again.

After finishing the soul searches and killing the enemies, he then flashed back to the previous standing spot, seeming calm and leisurely.

It was as though the five before him were not killed by Li Yunjing.

Everything that happened was too sudden; apart from Li Linzi and Gu Wenzhuo, the rest who had profound cultivation saw Li Yunjing’s movements clearly. The others remained unaware until Li Yunjing returned and saw the five dead on the ground.

Even the Qi Refining Realm masters among the royal tributes had no clue why one’s body technique could be so fast!

’Observatory Master, any results?’

Li Linzi softly asked from not far from Li Yunjing. His voice was as faint as a mosquito’s buzz; if not for the cultivators present, nobody would have heard him clearly.

Even the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators were evidently shocked by Li Yunjing’s divine techniques.

’There is a sect called ’Soul-Controlling Sect’ from the depths of the East Sea. The ’Soul-Controlling Sect’ is very mysterious, and these minions don’t know the location of the mountain gate!’

Li Yunjing explained lightly.

In fact, Li Yunjing was already shrouded in doubts.

What is this ’Soul-Controlling Sect’?

Is it truly a sect from the islands in the depths of the East Sea?

Or does it originate from somewhere else?

In the Great Ming Cultivation Realm, the southeastern coastal areas are isolated by the vast sea, and the cultivators of the Great Ming are generally treasure hunters at sea but rarely venture into its depths.

However, deep in the ocean, the people of the Great Ming Cultivation Realm encountered those from the sea regions.

Through exchanges, it was learned that there are countless islands deep within the ocean, with various Immortal Cultivation sects and clans inhabiting them.

Under normal circumstances, these overseas forces know that the Great Ming Cultivation Realm is the territory of the Shenxiao Dao Sect and dare not stir trouble.

Even if some enter the Great Ming Cultivation Realm, they come to explore the beautiful landscapes and seek small fortunes, rarely committing deeds as heinous as slaughtering mortals.
