409 KILLING QI EMPERORS, SNEAKING AWAY TO A CAVE
Long Tao looked at the group of people roaming around the areas as if they were trying to inspect something.
‘Who are these guys? Can you inspect their cultivation levels?” LonG tao asked.
“All of them are Qi Emperor level cultivators. You need to be more careful when you tackle them. Upon completion of all the art to the very peak, you have managed to acquire enough power to fight against an intermediate Qi Emperors. But advanced Qi Emperors are enough to make you run for your life. You need to be careful against them. Although I don’t sense an advanced Qi Emperor in this group, it wouldn’t hurt to take proper precautions.” The Keeper advised. Please visit ｆ𝗿𝗲𝒆we𝚋ｎ૦𝘃𝚎𝒍. 𝒄o𝚖
The avatars decided to separate from each other and slowly advance towards individuals who were alone. After capturing a person, the maximum time they could get before the enemy realizes something is wrong would be a couple of hours. He needs to strike the best blow he can within those hours. The best way is to strike and vanish into the artifact.
They managed to find two Qi Emperors who were at the initial stage. From the energy they were emitting, both of them had practiced in Earthly laws, which weren’t much of a deal for someone like Long Tao. His laws were capable of crushing their bases with just their aura. The two avatars followed before attacking and capturing the two Qi Emperors with a swift move.
After he managed to catch two, he began to scourge through their memories to find out the reason behind them surveying the landscape here. The information he found was disturbing.
‘So that boy was the son of an elder at Qi Monarch level. I never expected this to be the case. That is the reason he carried such valuable resources along with him. What is done is done. To think that they would be able to isolate the energy signature to this place and slowly approach my cave adobe is quite an achievement.
They won’t be able to find the avatar which is marked with the kill symbol since it is already in the Crimson World Artifact, but if they managed to find his cave adobe, they would be able to gather many signatures of energy and eventually track down the avatars who had went to join Dark Phoenix Sect and Sovereign sect. This is not an ideal scenario. Long Tao decided to take action.
He found the artifacts within the two people’s possessions, which were used to pinpoint his location. After that, he used the same artifact to find more people in the group. The first task was to eliminate the low-level emperors. The Keeper was asked to try and use the artifact to eliminate his energy signatures. The keeper agreed and popped out of the avatar’s body before sinking into the ground.
.....
That was when the attack began. One by one, the Qi emperors began to die. Initial Stage Qi Emperors weren’t a big deal for someone like Long Tao. he was able to crush them even before he entered Hell-plane. Now that he had refined his body to the highest extent, there was no longer any need to even use an effort.
The first problem arrived in the form of an initial stage Qi Emperor who managed to formulate a Heavenly law base. He was a personal student of that elder and hence his battle prowess was incredible too. Long Tao delivered a sneak attack, but he was able to survive due to his Law-body. he was gravely injured and almost managed to alert his teammates when the avatar pierced his head with a blood weapon and killed him.
” It was close. I managed to somehow subdue him, but if this happens often, a signal might slip through my arrangement.” Long Tao said.
” A signal might have already slipped past your defenses. A genius who managed to form a heavenly law base is bound to have a life-plaque of his in the force to which he belongs too. How long do you think it will take for the message about his demise to arrive at this location? You need to attack before that happens.” The Keeper said.
“Shit.” The avatar was moved out of the location instantly and targeted other individuals.
He managed to kill ten more individuals in multiple spots before he4 managed to clear the site completely. Once the area was covered and he scattered the corpses around multiple locations to distract the enemy from his cave, he entered it in a haste. It would be better if he could summon the formation and return to the Qi continent before the forces arrive.
After the cave was perfectly sealed and isolated, the avatar began to set up a blast formation that would destroy the entire area after he was teleported out of the world. Once the blast formation was set up, he started to ingest energy into the formation, and soon enough the formation completely awakened.
Li Meng came out of the artifact and entered the formation. Once the preparation is complete, the formation is activated. Just at this instant, Li Meng felt a strong wave of energy rushing through the environment and scanning the entire area. He hastened the process, and the formation enveloped him. The next moment he made multiple hand signs to activate the blast talisman and formations.
The energy seemed to have stopped right on the cave when Li Meng vanished from sight into the teleportation formation. Moments later, the cave entrance was blasted away by massive power. The entire cave was exposed to the surroundings and two figures entered the cave with haste, to catch the perpetrator.
The moment they entered they felt something was wrong and jumped out as fast as possible. A massive explosion devoured the cave and it’s surrounding the next moment. The explosion was powerful enough for the Qi Emperors.
“He managed to escape.” One of the men said.
‘” A formation master. When did a formation master of this caliber appear here?” Another one replied.
‘We need to dispatch an investigation team to verify the surroundings. he killed so many of our disciples. We need to find and punish him. Also, find out which elder ordered a search in this area.” The other guy nodded and the two men vanished.
