Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 2287 - 1612: Escape
Previously on Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan...
Therefore, Jiang Bogang refocused his attention on Li Zhirui, planning to use his most powerful killing move to quickly resolve him, not wanting to waste any more time.
Moreover, in his heart, not having defeated a cultivator two realms lower than himself, whose cultivation laws have little offensive power, already felt somewhat embarrassing.
When he attacked Li Zhirui again, he saw the plan in the opponent’s heart and, without hesitation, directly mobilized hundreds of Spirit Seeds of the Chaos Star Vine.
But this time, they didn’t transform into a wall to prevent the opponent from attacking the Purifying White Lotus; instead, they turned into a cage to trap him inside.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
Jiang Bogang was obviously serious, with eyes full of anger, he slashed out streaks of Sword Qi, crazily cutting the Chaos Star Vines, intending to break out of the cage and defeat Li Zhirui in a short time.
But Li Zhirui also spared no Mana, with Spirit Seeds falling, the opponent might have only severed one Star Vine, but immediately several more Star Vines grew out.
The battle has now reached a crucial stage.
Because in just a quarter of an hour, the nearby Land of Evil will be completely purified.
If, before this, Jiang Bogang does not escape from the cage and defeat Li Zhirui, then his task this time can be considered a complete failure!
And Li Zhirui only needs to hold on for a moment more, then he can escape the opponent, and whether to leave the Cloud Continent directly or search for another Land of Evil will be up to him.
Watching Jiang Bogang’s increasingly impatient movements, it’s clear he realized this too, no longer holding back, his strength fully erupted.
Under the mighty force, he actually managed to break open a gap in the cage in a short time!
Although it was quickly discovered by Li Zhirui who timely made repairs, if he hadn’t discovered it immediately, the opponent might really have escaped.
That previous scene also gave Jiang Bogang hope, prompting him to attack recklessly, causing the vine cage to start showing signs of breaking apart.
But the price was a rapid decrease in his internal Mana!
"Do you intend to compete with me in Mana?" Li Zhirui smiled slightly, took out a top-grade elixir, and consumed it. His Mana, which had been mostly depleted, instantly recovered to perfection.
The Breath Spirit Treasure Pill, taken in a breath, means complete Mana restoration, is also one of the hardest Profound Immortal Rank pills to refine among all the pill recipes he currently mastered.
But its effect, as the name suggests, is very outstanding!
The most important aspect is that the top-grade Breath Spirit Treasure Pill can be consumed three times consecutively without any side effects as long as this limit is not exceeded!
Thus, amidst Jiang Bogang’s frantic attacks and Li Zhirui’s continuous repairs, the nearby Land of Evil was completely purified.
The next instant, he had a perception.
"Now that this matter is settled, I won’t continue to accompany Fellow Daoist in training himself."
Before the words even settled, Li Zhirui decisively employed his Escape Skill, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye, leaving no hint behind as if he had never appeared.
No one continued to repair the cage, and with Jiang Bogang going berserk, it indeed couldn’t hold him back for long, taking only a moment before he broke free.
With a booming sound, the Star Vine City Wall behind him was cleaved in half, revealing the mountains and rivers already purified, even showing some traces of regained vitality.
But in Jiang Bogang’s eyes, involuntarily emerged a hint of disdain.
After walking down this path of no return, though not as severe as others, he still inherently disliked such a clean environment.
"Ah! After the great calamity, I must strike you down under my sword!"
Faced with an empty world, he could only roared in anger and unwillingness, sending a streak of black Sword Qi crashing down onto the purified land, seemingly intending to make it filthy and dirty again with such a method.
But Jiang Bogang did not anticipate that this Sword Qi seemed to trigger some switch, falling upon the land not polluting it but instead activated the trap left by Li Zhirui!
Bang—
A glaring, dazzling white light shot skyward, followed by an earth-shaking explosion, with purification spiritual light raining down like dandelion seeds, drifting towards all directions.
And when these seeds landed, they absorbed the nearby evil energy, rapidly growing into delicate white lotuses.
After purifying as much as possible in the vicinity, they then wilted and withered.
An immense amount of purification power wiped out much of the surrounding pollution and evil filth, though still negligible in the context of the entire Cloud Continent, yet this area, spanning hundreds of miles, became much improved.
And as Jiang Bogang bore the brunt of this immense impact, he now appeared extremely disheveled, most crucially with purification power invading his body!
Though the purification power was relatively weak and transient, it would take little time to resolve, yet it precisely restrained the evil energy within him.
Like water and fire unable to coexist, they seemed to use his body as a battlefield, continuously clashing, causing him great discomfort.
Aside from this, Jiang Bogang sensed another type of peculiar poison within his body.
It appeared not very threatening, yet for some reason, he felt a subtle unease in his heart.
Indeed!
This was also a surprise Li Zhirui specifically left for Jiang Bogang; he had mixed in a few Colorful Green Spirit Vines in the final cage.
Jiang Bogang, extremely angry at the time, did not notice this issue!
Thus, when the cage was breached, he unknowingly fell victim to the poison of the Colorful Green Spirit Vines.
Had it not been for this unexpected situation, in his state of great shame, he would have been unwilling to return.
Even if others would not mock him with cold sarcasm, it’s simply that he felt too ashamed to face others.
But now with an unidentified, special poison within him, Jiang Bogang could not afford to care about his dignity.
Because upon reaching the Profound Immortal Realm, most toxins have no effect on them, with their powerful Mana wiping out poisons, but should they encounter one that is effective, they absolutely cannot be careless!
A few thousand years ago, there was a renowned Profound Immortal who paid it no heed when poisoned, and as a result, ultimately died from a lethal poison.
This lesson is deeply etched in the minds of all Profound Immortals!
Moreover, the poison within him made him sense a trace of unease and danger, thus not daring to ignore it.
Hence Jiang Bogang could not bother with concerns about losing face; considering his own life, he decided to return to seek others’ help to resolve this threat first.
However, this ordeal only intensified his hatred towards Li Zhirui.
Secretly vowing in his heart, after the great calamity, no matter the cost, he would kill him to avenge today’s humiliation!
