Furthermore, the alchemy skills of the third grade inferior alchemist ancestor of the Li family were mediocre. He only managed to create three pills from the top-quality Haotian pill ingredients, and they were all of just barely passable quality.
This made Su Yu even more distressed.
Had it not been for the fact that he had some Xutian Lotus in his hand and that time waits for no man— “Whoosh!”
The puppet clone left the Red Lotus Lake, immediately employing the Earth Escape Skill and heading east. As soon as it entered the wilderness, it exited from underground and used the Wood Escape Technique to quickly distance itself from the Pill Master’s Li Family.
However.
Just less than three hundred miles after the puppet clone left the Li family, it stopped.
At the peak of a mountain ahead, a figure cloaked in a mana barrier stood peacefully at the top of the tree canopy, his face unclear.
By the time the puppet clone approached this area, a formidable aura had already been locked onto it.
The puppet clone furrowed its brows but didn’t seem surprised.
Looking calmly at the figure ahead, it said, “Elder of the Li family?”
Yet, the person didn’t react, only sending out a hoarse, faint voice. “Hand over the Haotian pill, and you may live.”
As he spoke, his eyes seemed to lock onto the puppet clone with a gaze akin to someone scrutinizing a fool. He sounded both curious and wary, “You—a mere cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Realm—dare to flaunt Haotian pill ingredients. Should I call you foolish or just plain foolish?”
Without wasting time with words, the puppet clone quickly employed the Wood Escape Technique and vanished.
Seeing this reaction, the man on the mountain peak slightly relaxed. This is a normal reaction of a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator encountering Core Formation Realm cultivator.
His divine sense swept around time and time again, failing to find any hidden auras.
This means the man really might not have any protection.
And if a True Man from the Core Formation Realm were around, wouldn’t it be better for him to directly take the Haotian pill ingredients to the Li family?
In such case, it wouldn’t be like this.
Thoughts surfaced in his mind one after another, only to be suppressed. As the man watched the puppet clone flee, his eyes flashed with scorn. He muttered, “If you manage to escape, what face will I have left?”
Humm!
Just as he thought, the green glow of mana throughout the sky and earth intensified. The puppet clone, which had just fled not too far away, was quickly ensnared by countless roots of large trees as if they came alive.
Just like numerous terrifying green serpents, they came rolling in.
In a flash, the puppet clone was caught off guard and tied up by the formidable roots, becoming a sitting duck.
In front of a True Man from the Core Formation Realm, a puppet clone from the Foundation Establishment Realm didn’t have any room to resist.
“Come here.”
With a light wave of his hand, the man ordered the mana roots that trapped the puppet clone to bring it back to him.
He didn’t rashly grab the Qiankun Bag from the puppet clone. Standing at the top of the canopy, looking down at the puppet clone he had easily captured, he left a gap of several feet between them.
He slowly said, “I’ll give you another chance. Hand over the Haotian pill, and I might let you live.”
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
The clear breeze swept across the land, rustling the branches of the surrounding trees.
After the voice completely fell, the forest fell into silence.
The terrifying Core Formation aura enveloped everything in sight, the heavens and earth seemed to have become dark. The act of breathing itself had become incredibly difficult! A ‘crackling’ sound accompanied the roots constricting tighter around the puppet clone, his body seemed to be on the verge of shattering. However, even then, the puppet clone slowly turned its head, not uttering a word, but staring at him coldly.
The next moment.
“Humm!”
An aura of sheer terror erupted from the puppet clone. At the same time, a chilling force, unimaginable in its intensity, spread throughout the heavens and earth. The bone-chilling cold instantly froze the surroundings the moment it appeared.
As the cold aura swept across the man standing just several feet away from the puppet clone, his body unconsciously shivered as if he were falling into a hell of icy cold, freezing his very soul.
Zits of sweat rose on his skin, his scalp went numb and an unprecedented sense of danger invaded the depths of his mind and soul from his heart.
‘Damn it!’ In an instance, the man regretted his presence there.
Only it was a little too late.
Bang!
The roots restraining the puppet clone were instantly frozen solid, and the next moment, the force on the puppet clone’s body vibrated, shattering the roots into particles that fell onto the ground in the form of frost. Just as the man surrounded by the mana light barrier had yet to react, the puppet clone, in the form of a short white-haired old man, slapped out with his palm.
This slap carried the terrifying force of the infant-form magic treasure, Ice Spirit Pearl, from within his body!
With the palm strike, the world within ten miles was instantly turned into a frosty plain.
The puppet clone’s chill voice echoed in the man’s ears, “You regard me as prey; little do you know, you are my prey as well.”
That voice made the man completely panic, his eyes reflecting a scene of utter terror and extreme horror.
“Bang!”
The unexpected turned of events happened in a split second.
From the eruption of the ferocious power inside the puppet clone to the moment it landed the slap, everything happened in the blink of an eye. Just as the man not too far from him managed to react, a surge of chilling force had already pierced through his body..
