Chapter 41: Destroying the Zhou Family, the Invincible Body Refining Method

Chapter 41: Annihilating the Zhou Family, the Fierce and Unrivaled Body Refining Cultivation Technique

Jiang Li’s appearance attracted everyone’s attention.

His features were handsome, his black robe swayed, like an Immortal descending to the world. He stepped with a Dragon-like gait, full of vigor, and his Imperial aura became increasingly obvious.

The more than a thousand Demon Suppression Division soldiers looked at the back of the black-robed young man before them, gripping their saber handles tighter, and standing even straighter.

It was as if they were soldiers awaiting inspection by their emperor.

The Young Commandant’s eyes were fervent, deeply imprinting Jiang Li’s image. He thought to himself: A true man, born between Heaven and Earth, should be like this.

Behind him, on the open road, Li Xi’s eyes reflected Jiang Li’s figure. Her chest felt like it held a frantically flapping sparrow, making her nervously glance around. She puffed out her cheeks, exhaling, afraid that anyone would notice the starlight in her eyes, especially her good sister.

And her good sister, Murong Qing, also looked on, seemingly moved, her clear eyes shimmering with brilliance.

At the same time.

Jiang Li stepped through the Zhou Family’s main gate.

The thousands of admiring gazes behind him made him very uncomfortable.

He had only designed the dialogue, but the specific actions were all performed freely by the Cultivation Technique, the Imperial Extremes World-Shocking Skill.

For example, he had never thought of the act of throwing corpses as a provocation.

It could be said that this Body Refining Cultivation Technique had shown off more today than he had in the past three years combined.

Fortunately, he was in the distant Qinghe County; otherwise, he couldn’t imagine how much of a stir this series of actions would cause.

However, the effect was indeed astonishing.

After this series of actions, the Demon Suppression Division had basically been subdued.

As long as he crushed the Zhou Family today, under the gaze of thousands, all the Power Of Will from the entire Qinghe County would be his.

Furthermore.

Due to the existence of the Demon Suppression Division, the subsequent Power Of Will from Qinghe County would continuously be transmitted to him.

By taking care of this place, he would have a stable channel for producing Dragon Qi.

This was also why he hadn’t ended the Hosting (custody/delegation) and allowed the Cultivation Technique, the Imperial Extremes World-Shocking Skill, to display its prowess freely.

With this thought in mind.

Jiang Li continued to input into the text box.

“Aren’t you looking for me? I am right here. What will you do now?”

The voice was not loud.

Yet, it slowly spread out.

Suddenly.

The entire world seemed to fall silent in that instant.

Towards the Zhou Family, the Qi Refining Peak Family Elder was momentarily stunned, a hint of apprehension in his eyes.

He naturally saw that Jiang Li’s cultivation was as high as the eighth layer of Qi Refining.

So young, with such an imposing demeanor, and such cultivation, this black-robed young man almost had the words ‘renowned righteous sect’ carved on his face.

No one who saw him would mistake him for a rogue Loose Cultivator.

For a moment.

The Zhou Family Elder’s anger uncharacteristically subsided.

“Young friend, I don’t know where you heard these rumors, but as a prominent Family in Qinghe County, our Zhou Family has always kept to ourselves, never interfering with the Demon Suppression Division. Their rabid pursuit of us today truly shows they don’t know their place.”

“With your insight, you must know about Tianxuan Holy Land. Zhou Yang, one of our Zhou Family’s twin Prodigies, is a top talent in Tianxuan Holy Land, ranking among the top ten Outer Sect Disciples. You are both Prodigies from major sects; perhaps you even know each other.”

Jiang Li’s expression became strange.

“Zhou Yang, I do know him. Is this him?”

Before the Zhou Family Elder could fully reveal his joy, Jiang Li casually tossed out a Nine-Curved Scimitar broken in half.

A Zhou Family member cried out in alarm: “Ah, that’s Brother Zhou Yang’s weapon!”

The Family Elder had an ominous premonition: “Young friend, where did you get this?”

Jiang Li said indifferently: “Naturally, I broke it. I also captured this Zhou Yang; he should be in the Law Enforcement Hall’s prison right now.”

Upon hearing this.

The entire Zhou Family was no longer calm.

Zhou Yang was the hope of the Zhou Family.

He was the key figure who had the chance to achieve the Golden Core Immortal Master realm in the future and lead the Zhou Family to become a Golden Core Family.

And now…

Someone told them that Zhou Yang had fallen.

He was not coming back.

This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue.

The Zhou Family members felt dizzy, shocked and enraged.

The Family Elder’s body swayed, his eyes wide with fury: “Do you know what you’ve done? How has our Zhou Family offended you?”

【Ding, the Cultivation Technique, the Imperial Extremes World-Shocking Skill, is unwilling to waste any more words. Rebellious traitors should be suppressed with thunderous means.】

Jiang Li: See, you’re getting impatient again.

Though he thought this, Jiang Li still closed the dialogue box.

“Too lazy to speak, too lazy to listen.”

As soon as the words fell.

Jiang Li, under the Cultivation Technique’s delegation, moved.

With an imposing aura, he charged directly at the Zhou Family members.

The mountain and river patterns on his skin glowed brightly.

He was clearly intending to play the individual hero.

To strengthen his authoritative rule.

A newly enthroned emperor is more autocratic and holds more power than a conservative ruler.

“How dare you! You are only at the eighth layer of Qi Refining. Even if you are a Disciple of Tianxuan Holy Land, so what? The Peak of Qi Refining is a threshold you cannot cross!”

The Family Elder roared in anger.

Magic power surged out.

Forming a pair of blood claws, a fishy (bloody) smell assailed the nostrils.

However…

Bang!

A loud tremor.

The Zhou Family Elder was sent flying on the spot.

Smashing through a wall, he landed in a pile of rubble.

His tongue was hanging out.

His aura dissipated.

Now.

All the Zhou Family members were shocked.

What a joke.

To kill a Qi Refining Peak Family Elder with one punch, is this even human?

Are the Disciples of Tianxuan Holy Land truly so terrifying?

But their Zhou Family’s twin Prodigy, Zhou Yang, had never displayed such terrifying destructive power at the Qi Refining Peak.

Are they even cultivating the same Immortal Dao?

“Don’t panic. If we all rush him, he can’t possibly kill us all before his magic power runs out.”

Another Family Elder stepped forward.

His cultivation was on par with Jiang Li’s, at the eighth layer of Qi Refining.

Jiang Li didn’t even look.

He crushed the opponent with the fiercest posture, like a tiger descending from the mountain hunting sheep. It was clearly a massacre.

With every punch, a Zhou Family Disciple died.

Their weapons were all shattered.

And after finally organizing a counterattack and unleashing all their attacks on Jiang Li, the Zhou Family members despairingly discovered that their weapons couldn’t even break his skin.

Let alone draw blood, there wasn’t even a red mark.

Invulnerable to blades and spears, possessing immense strength, fierce and overbearing—how could such an enemy be defeated?

Unless the Family Head could be invited out.

Some Zhou Family members’ eyes flickered, and they quietly retreated.

The Cultivation Technique also stopped its offensive, brushed its sleeves, and elegantly wiped the blood from its hands.

Jiang Li was puzzled.

There were still over two hundred Zhou Family Disciples here; why did it stop?

【Ding, the Cultivation Technique, the Imperial Extremes World-Shocking Skill, states: ‘I am an emperor; how can I fall into the predicament of being surrounded and killed? This would damage imperial prestige. Professionals handle professional matters; this is the Dao of controlling people.’】

Jiang Li: …

Oh, my goodness.

I didn’t expect you, an arrogant brute who loves to show off, not to be purely reckless.

You actually remembered that there were Demon Suppression Division soldiers outside.

He had almost thought the Body Refining Cultivation Technique was going to clear the field alone.

At this moment.

Murong Qing transmitted her voice: “The Zhou Family still has a secret passage; it should lead to where the Zhou Family Head is located.”

Jiang Li’s expression shifted.

Up until now, the Zhou Family had always been missing a crucial figure.

That was the Zhou Family Head.

To complete the optional task, this person must be dealt with.

Otherwise, it would not be considered eliminating future troubles forever.

With this thought in mind.

Jiang Li waved his hand.

“Don’t let a single one escape.”

He had investigated, and among the three hundred fifteen members of the entire Zhou Family, all those with cultivation had red markers above their heads.

All of them were Demonic Path cultivators.

To have an entire Qinghe County’s population supply one Family, it was not an exaggeration to call them a Demonic Path Family.

The Young Commandant stationed at the Zhou Family entrance immediately received the order.

He stepped inside.

He took a deep breath and roared: “Demon Suppression Division, listen to my command! By order of the Immortal Master, exterminate the Zhou Family! Leave no one alive!”

“Kill, kill, kill!”

Over a thousand Demon Suppression Division soldiers roared in unison.

Releasing the pent-up frustration of the past five years.

Five years.

No one knew how they had endured these five years.

But that was no longer important.

What was most important now was to fulfill the Immortal Master’s command and annihilate the entire Zhou Family.

…

On the other side.

While the Demon Suppression Division was slaughtering the Zhou Family members, Jiang Li had already appeared before the Zhou Family’s secret passage.

Murong Qing’s eyes glowed, and she concentrated: “This is it. The smell of blood inside is very strong, and there’s also a fluctuation of wood-attribute Spiritual Qi.”

Li Xi placed her hand on Jiang Li’s shoulder.

While infusing magic power, a green circle appeared on her body, healing any minor injuries.

This Origin Qi maiden was quite repulsed by the foul smell of the secret passage. Her delicate nose wrinkled, and she even slowed her breathing: “This Zhou Family is truly despicable. A mere Foundation Establishment Family, yet so audacious. Their Family Head is even hiding in such a filthy place. Are they raising some evil creature?”

Murong Qing lowered her gaze: “Hard to say, but at such a critical moment, the Zhou Family Head hasn’t appeared. He must either be unable to get out or temporarily unable to leave.”

Jiang Li’s expression was unreadable: “We’ll know once we go in and see.”

With a loud boom.

The entrance to the secret passage was directly smashed open.

Shattered stones flew.

An even stronger, foul stench assailed their nostrils.
