Chapter 76

With a single word, five figures suddenly rose from the snow, all clad in white snow armor, lying in wait within the earth. Even if one walked right over them, they would remain undetected, each exuding a formidable aura, the weakest being at the Fourth Stage of Qi Cultivation.

The five figures appeared, and the one who had discovered Luo Li took out a Spirit Storage Bag, opened it, and silently recited a spell, releasing five giant spiders from within. Each spider was about seven feet in size, fearsome and terrifying, with legs that resembled horse legs, leaving no trace on the snow, truly treading without a mark.

The group climbed onto the backs of these spirit spiders. Although some could fly using their magical tools, they preferred to conserve their true qi. The one who had discovered Luo Li whistled a strange tune, commanding the five horse spiders to charge towards Luo Li.

The five horse spiders sped across the snow, moving as fast as lightning, the north wind howling, but they felt no cold, instead seeming to enjoy the icy climate.

Luo Li continued forward, the hostility growing stronger. In the blink of an eye, five figures appeared ahead, and Luo Li immediately knew that the enemy had arrived!

Cultivators have stronger desires, and for the resources needed for cultivation, some abandon their dignity to become bandits. Luo Li had heard of this long ago, and today he finally encountered it!

But Luo Li felt no fear; in fact, he was more eager for a fight!

After comprehending the Spirit Butterfly Transformation, Luo Li most wanted to test his strength in battle. So when he stepped onto the shore, he sensed the snow spiders' pursuit through his innate abilities, but he was not afraid. He continued forward, ready for a fight!

Inhale, exhale, gather qi, wait!

In the blink of an eye, the five figures rushed to Luo Li, instantly surrounding him from all sides, forming an encirclement.

Looking at the five, Luo Li saw that the strongest was the one in the center, whose aura was like a tide, indicating he was at the Sixth Stage of Qi Cultivation, about to enter the later stages.

This person's aura was so strong, and he stood at the center of the group, clearly the leader. From his appearance, body, hands, and the flow of true qi, he must possess a powerful magical tool, capable of delivering a decisive blow!

Apart from him, the weakest was at the Fourth Stage of Qi Cultivation, hiding behind the leader, whistling. With his whistle, the strange spiders under their feet ran back and forth, moving as fast as lightning. He must be a beast tamer, specialized in controlling spirit beasts, with weak combat abilities. The snow spiders tracking Luo Li were likely under his control.

The other three, two on his left and right, were equally distant, with the same posture and aura, their hands hidden. These two were at the Fifth Stage of Qi Cultivation and must have mastered the secret techniques of the Divine Weaving Sect. They were positioned to cast a net to capture him, which was likely their first attack strategy!

The last one, also at the Fifth Stage of Qi Cultivation, was behind Luo Li, extremely thin, standing on the spider's back like a feather. He excelled in lightness techniques, moving extremely fast, with a highly aggressive gaze, indicating he was a sword cultivator!

Only a sword cultivator would be like this, born and dying by the sword, with fast and powerful attacks!

In an instant, Luo Li assessed the cultivation and abilities of the five, a completely subconscious process, without any conscious thought.

Luo Li took a deep breath, realizing this was a legacy of the ancient ancestor Xi Yi. Xi Yi, a Golden Core cultivator, had fought countless battles, allowing him to instantly assess the five!

At this moment, the leader shouted, "Stop! Robbery! Hand over all your spirit stones and magical tools, and we'll spare your life. Resist, and you die!"

The others shouted in unison, "Die!"

They roared together to intimidate Luo Li. Luo Li immediately spoke in a pleading tone, "Sirs, we have no grudges, please let me go!"

The leader said, "Brothers, we've been waiting for you. We can let you go, but we need to see if you have enough goods!"

Luo Li stretched out his hand, painfully taking out a storage bag and said, "Sir, this is all the spirit stones I have!"

He threw the bag to the leader, who opened it and said, "Three hundred spirit stones! Ha ha ha, brothers, today was not in vain. Continue, hand over your magical tools!"

The cultivators smiled, three hundred spirit stones, a fat sheep!

Luo Li, with a mournful face, took out another storage bag, then a spirit wood sword, and threw it to the leader!

In that instant, the leader reached out to catch it, and the others focused on the storage bag, curious about its contents!

Seizing the opportunity, Luo Li moved!

In a flash, he retreated, swung, dodged, and charged!

Using the act of offering spirit stones to lower their guard, Luo Li seized the chance to attack first, targeting the sword cultivator behind him!

A sword cultivator, born and dying by the sword, with the first priority on attack, was the most difficult to deal with, so Luo Li chose him first!

The distance between them was about five to six zhang. As soon as Luo Li moved, using the Spirit Butterfly technique, he was instantly there, and immediately attacked with the Electric Dragon Drill!

Luo Li's attack was swift, and the opponent reacted quickly. These cultivators lived on the edge, robbing for a living, always on high alert!

As Luo Li's fist approached, a sword light rose from the opponent's body, then divided, forming a light shield in front of him, a sword light defense!

The division of sword light was one of the sword cultivator's techniques, requiring a certain level of sword skills to master. Relying on this, though a solitary cultivator, he had gained a reputation in the Heavenly Spider Sect's market!

In an instant, Luo Li's fist struck the sword light shield, and a burst of light scattered!

The sword cultivator sneered, "Little brat, trying to ambush me? Grandpa played this trick ten years ago. Just hold on for a moment, and the Wu brothers will lock you down, and I'll cut you into a hundred pieces, or I'll change my name..."

His thoughts stopped there. Luo Li's fist hit the sword light, which was blocked, but the force was too great, too overwhelming. With one punch, the sword light dimmed, and with another, it dimmed further!

In the blink of an eye, Luo Li, like a butterfly, struck thirteen times, and with the thirteenth punch, all the sword light disappeared. The fourteenth punch hit the flying sword, shattering it!

The fifteenth punch drove the broken sword into the opponent's body, and a light membrane rose from the opponent, an automatic life-saving gold medal magical tool!

The sixteenth and seventeenth punches shattered the light membrane and the gold medal, the eighteenth punch crushed the opponent's heart, and the nineteenth punch pierced through his body, and the twentieth punch shattered his skull!

Twenty punches were delivered in an instant, showcasing the spirit, speed, and agility of the Spirit Butterfly, as well as the ferocity, weight, and power of the Black Dragon!

At this moment, the leader had just caught the storage bag, and someone shouted, "Third Brother, be careful..."

After shattering the sword cultivator's skull, Luo Li lightly stepped on the horse spider under the sword cultivator's feet, leaped, and flashed like a spirit butterfly, already ten zhang away, then turned and ran towards the distance!

As Luo Li leaped, a white light flew over, instantly forming a giant net that fell, enveloping the sword cultivator's body and the horse spider. If Luo Li hadn't leaped in time, he would have been caught in the net!

The net missed, and the leader roared, "Kill him, dig out his heart, and avenge Third Brother!"

The group charged at Luo Li! The beast tamer took out another Spirit Storage Bag, releasing spirit beasts, this time not spiders but white giant wolves, over thirty of them. He pointed at Luo Li and shouted, "Attack, tear him apart!"

The two other cultivators, one in front and one behind, alternated, charging at Luo Li. They stretched out their hands, releasing white light that formed nets in the air, trying to trap Luo Li!

This was the technique of the Divine Weaving Sect, skilled in using various nets. They split from the Heavenly Spider Sect, using the method of spiders weaving webs to develop their path. Their techniques involved driving various nets to capture opponents.

Luo Li ran forward, turning, spinning, leaping, charging, and floating, evading the nets, getting farther and farther away!

"This kid is too fast! What should we do, Brother?"

"Chase him, kill Third Brother, if he escapes, how will we stand in the market? Use the Swift Travel Talisman!"

The two, dissatisfied with the speed of the horse spiders, leaped up, each activating a talisman, flying into the air, and chasing Luo Li. Their speed increased, getting closer to him.

But at the same time, they were getting farther from the leader, who had a heavy aura and flew using a magical tool, which was not as fast as the horse spiders!

In an instant, a gap of forty zhang appeared between the four of them!

The leader noticed something was wrong and shouted, "Don't chase, be careful, it's a trap!"

At this moment, a net fell, and Luo Li seemed to pause, the net catching him, tightly wrapping him. The two in front shouted happily, "We got him, we got him!"

They rushed over to gather the net, injecting true qi to make it incredibly strong, preventing Luo Li from escaping, allowing them to torture him as they pleased.

More light rose from their bodies, forming nets to wrap around Luo Li. In the blink of an eye, they were ten zhang away from Luo Li, and the light from their hands was about to touch the net, making it unbreakable, a secret technique of the Divine Weaving Sect!

They shouted in joy, and Luo Li smiled, a cold smile. Then he opened his mouth, and a beam of light shot out!
