In a jungle on Cang Mo Peak.
Chen Lingyue stood in a standoff with Shi Mo and others.
A gentle breeze blew through the trees, carrying the scent of blood from the jungle.
This made the jungle appear even more ferocious.
"It seems some brainless fellow has shown up. Perfect, we'll take you back for the Holy Son to enjoy!" Shi Mo's eyes turned icy as he spoke in a deep voice.
The numerous Cang Mo Peak disciples behind him also wore unfriendly expressions.
Chen Lingyue was taken aback. What was their deal...
In the past, no one dared to question her when she adopted this demeanor.
These people actually wanted to capture her?
A sense of foreboding washed over Chen Lingyue.
"Senior Brother Shi, I hope you don't act rashly. This is Holy Son Jiang Li's woman. You'd better weigh your options carefully!" At that moment, a clear and cold voice sounded from not far away.
A woman of pure and beautiful appearance rapidly flew over.
The woman was Shan Hu. She hadn't expected Chen Lingyue to be so fast that she'd outpaced her.
Shi Mo's gaze fell upon the woman.
Holy Son Jiang Li's woman...
Shi Mo's expression grew grave. He could disregard anyone else, but if this was Holy Son Jiang Li's woman,
He would have to consider it very carefully.
...
Star Cauldron Palace.
Inside the secret chamber of Star Cauldron Palace.
The secret chamber was filled with an aura of terrifying power.
Vast amounts of spiritual energy surged from the earth's veins.
In the center of the chamber, Jiang Li was absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy with all his might.
He had pushed the Reincarnation Immortal Scripture and the Heaven Devouring Divine Body to their absolute limit.
Simultaneously, a trace of flowing time appeared on Jiang Li's person.
This aura was incredibly ancient, imbued with a profound power.
"Finally, I've cultivated it successfully!" After a short while, Jiang Li slowly opened his eyes.
His eyes held countless deep, profound energies, as if capable of severing time itself, containing a mysterious power.
This divine-tier secret art had taken Jiang Li several days to cultivate successfully.
It was the "Killing of Time," imbued with the power of time.
This secret art was no less potent than the Six Paths of Reincarnation Fist that Jiang Li had previously acquired.
Moreover, with the enhancement of the Pan Wu Divine Sword, its power might even surpass it.
The Killing of Time was a fearsome divine-tier secret art.
It primarily involved brewing a "will of time" within the body. The longer this will of time was nurtured within, the greater its power.
"I wonder which enemy will force out my Killing of Time," Jiang Li murmured to himself.
Following this, Jiang Li began to forcefully push towards the bottleneck of the Saint King triple heaven.
Previously, at Fierce Sun Mountain in the Profound Domain, Jiang Li had already advanced to the peak of the Saint King double heaven, thanks to the lightning tribulation and the Extreme Sun Divine Fire.
Now, after days of refinement, Jiang Li's peak Saint King double heaven realm had become completely stable.
He was ready to challenge the Saint King triple heaven.
Without any hesitation, Jiang Li took out a considerable amount of spiritual medicine resources and sacred crystals.
After making all the necessary preparations, Jiang Li once again circulated his Reincarnation Immortal Scripture and Heaven Devouring Divine Body.
A terrifying devouring force erupted from Jiang Li.
His body became like a black hole, constantly siphoning all the surrounding spiritual energy.
As countless spiritual energies poured in like a tide, Jiang Li's aura grew increasingly potent.
The Saint Yuan within his body flowed with increasing speed.
"Rumble!!!"
After a long while, an even more terrifying aura emanated from Jiang Li.
The Saint Yuan within his body also experienced a surge of explosive power.
The bottleneck was instantly shattered by the explosive aura.
Jiang Li felt an invigorating sensation as a burgeoning power erupted from him.
Concurrently, the aura of a Saint King triple heaven realm flowed from Jiang Li.
Jiang Li had successfully broken through to the Saint King triple heaven.
He hadn't expected this breakthrough to be so smooth.
It seemed the power of that Extreme Sun Divine Fire was quite formidable, having forged his foundation to be incredibly solid, thus quickening the speed of breaking through the bottleneck.
Next, it was time to check on that Holy Mother girl.
He wondered how she was faring in the Shi Mo Sect.
As for Chen Lingyue's safety, Jiang Li was not overly worried.
After all, he, Jiang Li, had some reputation in the Shi Mo Sect; ordinary people wouldn't dare to provoke him.
Following this, Jiang Li tidied up his surroundings and then left the secret chamber.
...
In the jungle of Cang Mo Peak.
Shi Mo's face was filled with apprehension.
He hadn't expected this person to be the woman of the Star Mo Peak Holy Son.
In that case, it would be difficult to make a move against her.
After Shan Hu finished speaking, Chen Lingyue's cheeks flushed.
What outrageous words Shan Hu was speaking! When had she become that great devil's woman?
Although he was handsome, he was a great devil, and she wouldn't easily fall for him.
Emmm, unless he mended his ways...
Pah, pah, pah, what was she thinking? Even if he mended his ways, it wouldn't work. No, no, no...
Chen Lingyue suppressed her thoughts, stopping her peculiar notions.
"Since she is Holy Son Jiang Li's woman, then I was reckless in my words earlier." Shi Mo took a deep breath and continued.
Shan Hu and Li Quan, who was behind Chen Lingyue, were stunned.
This woman was actually Holy Son Jiang Li's woman.
Was there hope for them today...
A hint of joy flickered in Chen Lingyue's heart. She hadn't expected that great devil's reputation to be so useful.
"However, even if she is Holy Son Jiang Li's woman, she has no right to interfere in Cang Mo Peak's affairs, does she? I intend to apprehend this person, so please, Holy Son's wife, stand aside!" Shi Mo changed tack and spoke again.
Shan Hu's brows furrowed. What Shi Mo said was indeed not wrong.
They from Star Mo Peak had no right to interfere in Cang Mo Peak's affairs.
Chen Lingyue clenched her fists tightly, grinding her small tiger teeth. No right to interfere?
"Miss Chen, let's leave. This is not something we can manage!" Shan Hu then said softly to Chen Lingyue.
This Shi Mo was a Saint King-level cultivator, far surpassing her and Chen Lingyue in strength.
To continue entangled would be an unwise course of action.
Li Quan behind them looked utterly despairing. They hadn't expected to still be unable to escape being captured by Shi Mo.
It seemed there was truly no other way...
"No, I will interfere. I will definitely make this person hand over the Thunder Spirit Bamboo. Give me some time!" Chen Lingyue gritted her teeth, her tone filled with determination.
Shan Hu, standing beside Chen Lingyue, felt a momentary daze and a sense of fatigue.
Shi Mo had already conceded, and he had made it clear that this was Cang Mo Peak's matter.
Why was this girl still not listening... Insisting on getting involved in this matter...
