Chapter 488 Injured
If Hu Qingshan's true form was here, Li Zhirui would turn around and run away without hesitation, because he knew that he was no match for this old monster.
But if it's just a shadow...
Li Zhirui thought it might be a good idea to give it a try!
"Interesting! Interesting!" Hu Qingshan raised his eyebrows, as if he had seen through Li Zhirui's thoughts, and chuckled: "I haven't made a move for a long time, and now I am looked down upon by a junior."
"Senior, if I were to face you in person, I would definitely turn around and run away. But with a mere shadow, I have some confidence that I can save my life."
As long as Hu Qingshan's projection mana is used up, it will dissipate soon, and Hu Linghuan will be a lamb to be slaughtered!
However, if Li Zhirui really kills Hu Linghuan, it is very likely to arouse the anger of the old monster, and then the Li family will suffer.
Li Zhirui naturally knows the seriousness of this, but if you lose, you will not lose. If you are inferior to others now, how will you be able to exert your full strength by then?
And since there was no fear for his life, Li Zhirui naturally became a lot more courageous.
Moreover, the opportunity to fight against a top-level fourth-level demon was rare. This was a very precious experience for Li Zhirui.
"Okay, okay! Let me see what you are capable of, you kid, how confident you are!" Hu Qingshan laughed angrily, and with a wave of his hand, several attacks came.
It was also a space blade, but its power was not comparable to that of Hu Linghuan. Wherever the blade passed, the space cracked inch by inch, trying to submerge Li Zhirui with a heaven-destroying momentum.
Li Zhixuan and others had been driven dozens of miles away by Li Zhirui when the projection appeared. If he had no worries, he would just do his best to deal with this phantom.
"Ten Thousand Water Lotuses!"
As the magic formula was played quickly, Li Zhirui's magic power surged out, and water lotuses appeared out of thin air, growing densely around him.
Water has no shape!
The sharp blade can easily cut off the water lotus, but instead of returning to the world, it dissolves into pools of spiritual water and eventually converges into a blue lake.
Flowers fall and flowers bloom, and water lilies grow endlessly. With this lake as its foundation, water lilies grow continuously, weakening the opponent's attacks.
"It's interesting. With your current level, you actually have a good understanding of water virtue and wood virtue. You are worthy of being called a genius."
Hu Qingshan praised him, then changed the topic and said: "But if this is all you have, you'd better stay here!"
I saw it reaching out and slapping it forward, the lake was completely shattered, the spiritual water splashed everywhere, and the water lotus defense could no longer be created.
The remaining force was still fierce, and it hit Li Zhirui unstoppably.
"This action of fellow Taoist has helped me a lot!" A smile appeared on Li Zhirui's lips, but the next moment, his whole body was suppressed by a giant palm.
'wrong! ’
The moment he came into contact with Li Zhirui, Hu Qingshan knew that what he hit was not his true body.
boom--
A grass elf, into which Li Zhirui had poured most of his mana, exploded violently. The violent explosion caused a lot of damage to the phantom, which made it look much lighter.
However, at this time, Li Zhirui's forcibly recovered mana was once again running low, and he was unable to cast more powerful spells for the time being.
"Are you exhausted now?" Hu Qingshan glanced at Li Zhirui with some disappointment. It was a pity that it was rare to meet such an interesting monk.
"Senior! Goodbye, I hope there will be another chance to fight." As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhirui disappeared.
The technique he used called turning water can turn it into a ball of liquid. As long as he doesn't do anything and doesn't expose his murderous intention, it will be just like ordinary liquids, and it will be difficult to find Li Zhirui.
But this time, Li Zhirui gained a lot from the battle with Hu Qingshan's shadow.
The strong pressure allowed him to break through the small bottleneck on his cultivation path, and he could once again improve his cultivation level.
Although it is not a breakthrough to the middle stage of Nascent Soul, it has made considerable progress, at least one step closer.
At the same time, it was also because of the pressure brought by Hu Qingshan that Li Zhirui had a deeper understanding of the several spells he created and could continue to improve them.
For True Lord Yuanying, it is almost impossible to create a magical power, because magical power is a certain manifestation of the law, and Yuanying has just come into contact with the law, how can he do such a profound thing?
But a few spells are not a problem.
"It's a pity that I couldn't deal with this kid this time. It might be a big disaster in the future!" Hu Qingshan looked at Li Zhirui's back and sighed helplessly.
The first time he fought with Li Zhirui, he had the idea of killing him. Even if he didn't have something more important and couldn't escape, Li Zhirui would not have been able to escape.
Unfortunately, it is too late to say this now.
Hu Qingshan glanced at Hu Linghuan and sighed in his heart. His descendant has been accustomed to smooth sailing along the way. Now that he has suffered such a blow, it is very likely that he will be unable to recover.
If he can overcome this hurdle, Hu Linghuan will usher in a huge development, but if he fails, then he may stop here.
——
"Ahem!"
At this time, Li Zhirui, who had escaped, suddenly coughed violently, as if he wanted to cough out all the internal organs in his body. Many scarlet flowers bloomed on the ground.
"Brother Ninth, are you okay?" Li Zhixuan asked hurriedly.
This catastrophe was caused by her. If Li Zhirui was injured, she would feel guilty and regretful.
"It's okay. It's just that some congestion accumulated in the body during the battle. Just spit it out and it will be fine." Apart from his pale face, Li Zhirui didn't seem to have anything serious.
But in fact, his internal organs were seriously injured, but Li Zhixuan and others couldn't help. Talking about it would only make them worried and concerned, and it would not help his injuries at all.
"After this battle, the fourth-level monster should not come to trouble the family."
Next, Li Zhirui is going to practice quietly and do his best to improve his realm and strengthen his strength.
But before that, he had to recover from his injuries and then push Li Dayuan and other older generation leaders to step down.
Everyone returned to Ten Thousand Immortals Island in silence.
Seeing that Li Zhirui and the others had returned safely, Li Shiqing and other clan members immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
After discussing the next actions of the family, they dispersed.
"Brother Ninth, I will work hard to practice and try to help you share the pressure on the family as soon as possible." Before leaving, Li Zhixuan said a little abruptly.
Li Zhirui was stunned when he heard this, then grinned and said, "Okay! Then I'll wait and see how you perform."
