The Strongest Sect Master In Cultivation World

In a dense shrub forest, there were several birds chirping above the branches. Everything seemed so peaceful.    

Jiang Ling retracted his aura and hid in the shadows under the tree. He pressed on his right leg, and it still hurt.    

He had been seriously injured for a hundred days. The last time he was injured by Ye Xinghe's palm at the Lijiang River, his injuries had not healed yet.    

However, this kind of injury was nothing to Jiang Ling.    

This was because his body was densely packed with wounds of various sizes. The wounds had been rubbed by the astral blades, the fluctuations of spiritual energy, the fist marks, the claw marks... There was not even a piece of flesh left!    

It was like over a hundred mouths that had opened up to reveal a grayish black color, covering his entire body. It was a shocking sight.    

Moreover, many of the wounds were covered in brown devilish energy, continuously damaging the recovery of the wounds.    

These were the injuries that Ye Xinghe had left in the past two months.    

Every time Jiang Ling moved his finger, these wounds would emit waves of piercing pain.    

His face twitched slightly. He reached out his hand and plucked the flower bud of the Falling Jade Lotus beside him. Then, he crushed it into a medicinal concoction and covered it with the wound.    

No matter how much he saved on eating the pill, he had already finished eating it.    

Currently, his condition was extremely poor. His Dantian had dried up, and his meridians had been damaged. He could even use his magical weapon now.    

Furthermore, all of them had been destroyed by Ye Xinghe, and there weren't many of them left.    

Jiang Ling could be said to be at the end of his rope!    

Now, there was only the powerful qi and blood produced by the body refinement technique that was supporting him.    

"This damn Ye Xinghe is really ruthless! From the south to the north, and from the east to the west, he's pursued me for a total of several hundred thousand kilometers, right?"    

"Pursuing me day and night, not even giving me time to sleep!"    

Jiang Ling rubbed his bloodshot and dry eyes.    

Then, he stretched out his hand and cast a [Water Mirror Spell] on the ground. Through it, he could see the situation thousands of miles away.    

It was the last six magic tools Jiang Ling used, as well as the remaining fifty or so talismans, which he combined with the earth vein's Qi to set up a grand formation.    

If he couldn't kill Ye Xinghe anymore, he might be the one to die.    

In the image of the circular water mirror technique, he could clearly see that Ye Xinghe had quickly circled around the dense forest with the formation.    

Then, he stopped and entered the formation from the direction of the exit. After three moves, he destroyed the formation's eye and cleaned up the few magic tools along the way!    

"F * ck..." Jiang Ling punched the tree trunk with his fist.    

Ye Xinghe learned so fast that he could easily crack the formation that he had carefully set up!    

At this moment.    

He felt a prickly pain on his back.    

"Not good! This kid is using a cover-up!"    

Jiang Ling leapt up and pressed the Spirit Bone on his chest. A powerful energy burst out from the Spirit Bone, causing his body to expand and his speed to increase.    

Just as he flew a few dozen feet, a blood-red ray of light flashed across the sky. It was like a thousand feet long waterfall, and it carried a force that could topple mountains and overturn seas as it struck the previous position.    

The entire ground shook violently. Violent spirit energy tore everything within a ten thousand meter radius into pieces.    

If Jiang Ling reacted slightly slower, he would turn into a wisp of Blood Mist.    

He didn't have time to rejoice. He suppressed the remaining spirit energy in his body and flew at high speed.    

After changing positions several times and leaving behind two baits, he finally stopped after fleeing for several thousand kilometers.    

"Huhuhu ~"    

Jiang Ling stopped by a river. His chest was rising and falling rapidly, and his throat was burning with pain.    

However, he still maintained vigilance. After checking that there were no signs of Ye Xinghe following him, he dared to drink a few mouthfuls of the river water and rest for a while.    

"According to my previous experience, after another two incense sticks of time, this Ye Xinghe has caught up to us..."    

"But I don't have any other means!"    

However, after waiting for the time it takes for three incense sticks to burn, Ye Xinghe still didn't follow them.    

"That shouldn't be the case!"    

Jiang Ling's heart sank instead.    

Because in the past two months, no matter what method he used, he was unable to escape from Ye Xinghe's pursuit.    

The other party was like gangrene attached to the bone, tightly entangling him.    

"The calm before the storm..."    

"The other party already knows that I'm at the end of my rope."    

"The end is either you die or I die!"    

Jiang Ling wiped his face with a handful of water and forced himself to be energized.    

He took out the Cheng Ying sword and trimmed his beard and hair. He washed up seriously and changed into a clean white robe.    

He was waiting for the final moment.    

...    

The next day, noon.    

"Weng!"    

Suddenly, a scarlet ray of light flashed across the sky and arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye.    

"Swish ~" A figure suddenly appeared on the mountain peak. He was dressed in black and wore a red cloak. Surrounding him was a majestic demonic aura. However, his face was calm and composed.    

It was Ye Xinghe.    

He turned his eyes and saw Jiang Ling sitting cross-legged on a large rock in the river in a white robe in the middle of the valley.    

The corner of Ye Xinghe's mouth curled up and revealed a slight smile. "You're not going to run anymore?"    

He did not wait for Jiang Ling's reply. He used his Divine Sense to carefully observe his surroundings.    

"This terrain is three mountains and two rivers. This is the 'Two Dragons Play the Pearl' pattern of the 'Azure Dragon Out at Water' pattern. Dragon veins gather and water spiritual energy is abundant. It is very beneficial to you!"    

Ye Xinghe, on the other hand, happily walked into the river valley.    

If Jiang Ling found a place that did not have any special places to participate in the decisive battle, he would be extremely suspicious and have many concerns.    

This way, he could use all kinds of favorable situations to combine with various formations. He was the Jiang Ling that Ye Xinghe was familiar with.    

Ye Xinghe slowly approached and raised his attention to the highest point.    

Although Jiang Ling had a thin face and a weak aura on his body, and there were even traces of blood on his white robe, his cultivation base was only at the early Dragon Becoming Stage, and he was as dried as a candle in the wind.    

However, Ye Xinghe didn't dare relax at all. He completely regarded Ye Xinghe as an expert with a higher cultivation base than himself.    

Ye Xinghe waved his sleeve and destroyed the three chain formations on the ground. Then, he slowly stepped onto the riverbank.    

Upon seeing this scene, a bitter smile appeared on Jiang Ling's face. "Your attainment in formations has already surpassed countless people. Even a ten-thousand-year-old demon like Nine Nether Bird can't compare to you."    

"You flatter me. I'm just learning from you. I learned a little faster."    

Ye Xinghe smiled. "If I learned a little slower, I would have died there."    

He stared at Jiang Ling and said slowly, "You have used all the magic weapons you could use, including the few rank eight magic weapons."    

"That Spirit Bone has been used many times, and it is on the verge of breaking, right?"    

"It seems that you do not have any other means!"    

Ye Xinghe knew Jiang Ling very well, and he knew the situation very well.    

He slowly pulled out the long blade on his back and his aura increased rapidly. The wind and clouds in the sky gathered and formed a thick dark cloud. The power of a peak saint was fully displayed!    

The cold shining tip of the blade pointed at Jiang Ling.    

"Come!"    

"Alright!"    

Jiang Ling slowly exhaled and suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart.    

Even if his condition was not good and his strength was far lower than his opponent's, he still had to draw his sword!    

"Zing!" Jiang Ling pulled out the Cheng Ying sword from its sheath.    

He knew the difference in strength, so he did not wait for his opponent to attack and attacked first.    

Jiang Ling stepped on the ground with his left foot, and a wave of energy was ignited under his feet. The few formations that were destroyed suddenly lit up with orange light, turning into hundreds of flaming chains that tightly wrapped around Ye Xinghe.    

He stepped on the surface of the water, and the spiritual energy in his body was poured into the long sword without any reservation. In just a short moment, he had thrust out thousands of swords. Each sword had borrowed the power of the "Three Mountains and Two Rivers" dragon vein. It was like a huge river heading east, roaring like a frenzied dragon. He fiercely attacked Ye Xinghe!    

The Qi that it emitted shook the heavens and the earth. It didn't seem like the Qi of a Dragon Becoming Stage at all!    

"So you had guessed that I would destroy this formation, and you even created a new trap because of it. Truly amazing!"    

A surprised expression appeared on Ye Xinghe's face, as if he was being schemed against everywhere.    

"However, your strength is too weak!"    

"Boom!" Ye Xinghe's arms shook, and a thick and powerful blood colored spiritual force gushed out. A violent gale of wind blew in the surroundings.    

"Blood Moon, slash!"    

Ye Xinghe's eyes widened, and he raised his long blade from below. The ground cracked open, and a blood-red saber light suddenly shot out explosively. The blade light in the air was like a blood-red moon, emitting a terrifying aura. It shot towards Jiang Ling!    

"Bang, bang, bang!"    

Jiang Ling's sword light collided with the blood moon, creating a series of loud booms. A powerful energy wreaked havoc in the surroundings, causing ripples to appear in the surrounding void.    

"Bang!"    

After all, Jiang Ling was only a Dragon Becoming Stage warrior. The thousands of sword beams were destroyed by the blood moon without any accident. Without slowing down, they flew towards Jiang Ling!    

Jiang Ling's body moved like lightning, and with a flash, he dodged the incoming blood sun. Then, he threw out the Universe Divine Cauldron with his backhand.    

The Universe Divine Cauldron spun in the air, and it turned into a huge mountain. Then, it pressed down fiercely on Ye Xinghe.    

"This huge cauldron is at the eighth step. Even if you are connected with your mind, the gap in your realm is so huge. You can only use it as an ordinary item."    

Ye Xinghe smiled, and stretched out his left hand to grab the air.    

"Buzz!"    

Five spatial cracks that were dozens of meters wide were grabbed in the air, and the Universe Divine Cauldron was actually grabbed by Ye Xinghe!    

After that, the spiritual power in Ye Xinghe's body burst out, instantly covering his entire arm, and then he fiercely punched down!    

Wherever this violent punch went, the space shattered into pieces, and like fierce thunderclaps, it directly smashed onto the large cauldron!    

"Clang!!" A huge collision sound was heard. The blood-red spiritual power surged on the divine cauldron. Under the powerful force, the divine cauldron turned into a cannonball and flew thousands of miles away!    

If it wasn't a product of the System, it would have been blasted into pieces long ago!    

Even so, Jiang Ling's connection with the divine cauldron became weak. Even his divine soul was damaged.    

"Uh..." He could not help but groan.    

"Cold Evil Palm!" Ye Xinghe wasn't polite at all.    

The brown cold air gathered in his hand at lightning speed. In the next moment, a thick layer of brown ice appeared on his palm, giving off an eerie chill.    

The Cold Evil Palm was quickly formed. Ye Xinghe stomped his foot on the ground and his body shot out explosively. In midair, a palm print that was thousands of feet big was fiercely slammed towards Jiang Ling!    

Before this palm strike even arrived, the surrounding cold air instantly erupted. Moreover, a strange murderous aura gushed out, and a deadly cold poison permeated the brutal atmosphere. Jiang Ling, who was below, felt a chill run down his spine, and even his divine soul felt frozen!    

If he had just been hit by the palm print, his divine soul would have been frozen into a block of ice!    

Jiang Ling's heart trembled, because this palm strike covered an area of a few hundred meters, as if it was a mountain pressing down on him. Moreover, his opponent still had some strength left in his heart.    

If he were to hastily dodge it, it was very likely that it would be Ye Xinghe's storm-like attack.    

This thought flashed across Jiang Ling's mind. He did not dodge or evade. Instead, he thrust the sword in his hand towards the huge rock that he was sitting cross-legged on.    

"Buzz!"    

Immediately, the ground shook violently. A green light that was more than 150 feet thick appeared. The azure colored spirit energy, which was hundreds of Zhang long, surged out, and bared its fangs and brandished its claws in midair. The ground started to distort, and its appearance gradually became more specific. Its head looked like a cow's. Its horns were like deer, its eyes were like prawns, its ears were like an elephant, and its legs were like snakes. Its belly was like a snake, its scales like a fish, its claws like a phoenix, and its palms like a tiger. It had a beard next to its mouth, a pearl under its head, and a reverse scale under its throat.    

It was a majestic Azure Dragon!    

"Boom! This Azure Dragon ferociously charged into the nine heavens, colliding with the grayish-black palm print that came crashing down!    

Green and black spiritual energy gushed out in all directions like tidewater, and a layer of gray ice and snow appeared in the sky.    

Seeing this, Jiang Ling stretched out his hand and flicked the longsword. "Ding!" It was as clear and melodious as a dragon's roar.    

The scattered green spiritual energy was like a swallow returning to its nest as it whistled and surged towards the longsword. It spiraled on the longsword, and the sharp energy boiled. Even the surrounding space collapsed and collapsed under it!    

Jiang Ling stomped on the ground, leaving behind an afterimage on the spot. The sword in his hand hummed, and a green light lit up on it. Then, it suddenly expanded, and instantly formed a few hundred meters long sword beam!    

"Azure Dragon Goes to Sea!"    

This riverbank was carefully chosen by Jiang Ling. The dragon veins had converged, and the water-type spiritual energy was abundant.    

When he stabbed out with his sword, there was a whistling sound. The water elemental spiritual energy in the surroundings was surging, and the hidden dragon veins in the earth veins resonated under the guidance of the sword intent!    

When he stabbed out with his sword, the surging river seemed to come alive, and it gave Jiang Ling endless spiritual energy.    

One with the sword, the heaven and earth moved together, the power was incomparably powerful!    

Under the sword light, the azure dragon carried an aura that could destroy the heaven and earth!    

"Haha, your move is repeated!"    

"My technique is lacking!"    

Ye Xinghe on the opposite side laughed, the spiritual energy in his body surged out without any reservation, and then he stretched out his left foot and stomped on the ground!    

"Boom!!"    

The riverbank in front of him immediately cracked open and formed a circular spider pattern. Then, a blood colored pillar of light, which was several thousand feet thick, suddenly shot up into the sky from the ground with an unstoppable momentum!    

This blood colored pillar of light contained an endless amount of Yin energy. A trace of it would completely corrode all the Yin energy within one's body!    

Even though it was thousands of feet away, the surrounding trees and flowers instantly turned yellow. The tree trunk began to wither!    

And the target of this terrifying blood colored light pillar was precisely Jiang Ling, who had transformed into a dragon with sword qi!    

Ye Xinghe had grasped the precise timing of this attack, and the position of the attack was precisely the weak point of the sword light.    

Moreover, his eyes were still shining as he held the blade with both hands, and the surrounding blood colored spirit energy was circling around him.    

It seemed like his opponent had already prepared a new killing move!    

Even if Jiang Ling broke through this blood colored light pillar, a new killing move would arrive in an instant and kill him!    

This Ye Xinghe was truly ferocious. Each ring was filled with killing intent!
