Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World -
Chapter 87: Domineering
Yu Dingyi's domineering behavior had infuriated many cultivators, but no one dared to speak out against him.
Except for the Mountain Sect, no local cultivator dared to resist the Qingyun Sect, unless they didn't want to live anymore.
This made Chen Lin feel the might of a Foundation Establishment strongman, and the Qingyun Sect, with only one Foundation Establishment, was able to achieve this level of dominance.
However, Chen Lin didn't quite believe that the Qingyun Sect was capable of such feats, replaceing it hard to believe that they could accurately locate him in such a short time, unless the exposed female cultivator personally came to his face, otherwise, it was impossible for anyone else.
Was a Foundation Establishment cultivator a god, able to traverse time and space?
Seeing the attitudes of the crowd, Yu Dingyi let out a cold laugh and walked among them.
"Take off your mask!"
As he walked up to Chen Lin, he coldly commanded.
Chen Lin expressionlessly removed his mask, revealing an old and worn face.
Yu Dingyi furrowed his brow, sensing that Chen Lin was only at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, and didn't say a word, directly walking past him.Although they had used special tracking methods to determine that the person who killed Luo Ziqing had entered Guyuan City, he didn't believe that a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator had the capability to kill Luo Ziqing.
After checking everyone, Yu Dingyi let the ordinary people leave.
The cultivator sects and the imperial court had an agreement not to harm ordinary people without reason, and ordinary people were, in any case, incapable of killing a Qi Refining 9th-stage cultivator.
There were about twenty cultivators left, as the north city gate was the direction leading to the ancient cultivation ruins, and many cultivators had been coming and going during this time.
Chen Lin sensed that among these twenty cultivators, there were only three at the early stage of Qi Refining, four at the late stage, including Shen Chongyang from the Mountain Sect, and the rest were at the mid-stage of Qi Refining.
This was normal, as early-stage Qi Refining cultivators usually didn't go out to explore, and late-stage Qi Refining wasn't something anyone could achieve, requiring a certain level of talent.
"Daoist Yu, since you've finished checking, can we leave now? It seems that they've found a way to enter the ancient temple at the ancient cultivation ruins, and we still need to go treasure hunting!"
A gray-robed late-stage Qi Refining cultivator spoke with a displeased tone.
As a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator, being coerced by someone of the same cultivation level was unprecedented, even if the person was from the Qingyun Sect.
"Leave? Ha ha, no one is allowed to leave until the suspicion is cleared. Everyone, take out your storage bags, I want to inspect them!"
"What, inspect our storage bags? You're going too far, Yu Dingyi!"
As soon as the inspection of storage bags was mentioned, the gray-robed cultivator suddenly flew into a rage.
This was no longer coercion, but an insult. The storage bag was related to a cultivator's personal secrets, and how could they possibly let outsiders see it?
Chen Lin's face also changed greatly at this moment.
He was most worried that the other party would inspect his storage bag.
His storage bag contained several different grades of Thunderbolt Beads, as well as a tiger puppet and a snake puppet. If these were discovered, it would basically confirm that he was the murderer.
Whether it was the Thunderbolt Beads or the puppets, they were all rare items, and the traces at the explosion site were too obvious.
What was even more critical was that Luo Ziqing's storage bag was still on him!
Because the other party's cultivation was higher than his, it would take some time to erase the spiritual imprint on it. He hadn't had time to process it yet, and the items inside would definitely prove Luo Ziqing's identity!
Chen Lin forced himself to remain calm, thinking of a countermeasure in his mind.
Then, he slowly placed his hand on the storage bag containing the Thunderbolt Beads.
If he really couldn't avoid being inspected, he could only detonate all the Thunderbolt Beads.
He still had two Thunderbolt Three, seven or eight Thunderbolt Two, and several Thunderbolt One. If he detonated them all, it would be enough to cause a huge commotion, giving him a chance to escape.
Unfortunately, the Blood Escape Talisman had already been used up. Otherwise, his chances of escape would be even greater. Now, it all depended on whether the Thunderbolt Beads' explosion could severely injure the three people from the Qingyun Sect.
The other cultivators present had already been enraged by Yu Dingyi's overbearing behavior and wouldn't help him pursue Chen Lin.
Chen Lin was weighing the feasibility of his plan while searching for the best opportunity to act.
At this moment, he suddenly moved, looking at the gray-robed cultivator in shock, slowly withdrawing his hand from the storage bag, with a flash of unusual color in his eyes.
Just now, the same strange fluctuation as the new bride of the Liu family had appeared on the other party's body!
Could it be?
Chen Lin thought of a possibility and immediately touched the Exorcism Talisman in his pocket.
Then, he pretended to adjust his collar, touching the jade talisman on his chest, and finally felt a slight sense of relief.
Indeed, the other party was possessed by an evil spirit, and the jade talisman on his chest had already reacted.
In that case, he didn't need to create chaos himself.
Chen Lin focused his attention on Yu Dingyi and the gray-robed cultivator, waiting for the gray-robed cultivator to make a move, which would be his chance to escape.
Yu Dingyi seemed to be unaware of the gray-robed cultivator's abnormality, or perhaps he was aware but didn't care, and instead looked at him with a mocking gaze.
"Cheng Qiu, I usually don't bother with you, but don't think you have any status in Guyuan City just because you're a loose cultivator. You're just a nobody, and you dare to act wildly? Open your storage bag for me, or else don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"You're full of crap!"
As Yu Dingyi spoke, the gray-robed cultivator's face became increasingly distorted, his eyes turned blood-red, and then he let out a beast-like roar and pounced!
"You dare!"
Yu Dingyi was also furious, and how could he tolerate a loose cultivator daring to attack him?
He didn't dodge or evade, and with a flick of his wrist, a dazzling golden light shot out.
The golden light transformed into a golden dragon, carrying a terrifying aura as it charged towards the gray-robed cultivator.
This move made Chen Lin's eyes widen in shock.
According to the fluctuations, he could determine that this was a high-quality technique, and yet Yu Dingyi executed it with such ease, without even a hint of preparation. This Yu Dingyi was indeed extremely powerful.
However, what no one expected was that the gray-robed cultivator, faced with such a powerful technique, didn't dodge or evade, and instead allowed the technique to hit him, creating a bloody hole in his body. Yet, he seemed to feel nothing, and continued to roar and charge forward.
Yu Dingyi was also caught off guard, and before he could react, he was pounced on by the gray-robed cultivator.
But the gray-robed cultivator didn't use any spiritual treasure or technique, and instead opened his bloody mouth wide, biting down on Yu Dingyi's head!
"Ah!"
Yu Dingyi let out a miserable cry as a large chunk of his scalp was bitten off.
Then, in the midst of everyone's shocked gazes, the gray-robed cultivator chewed twice and swallowed the scalp, hair and all.
"This is bad, he's been possessed by an evil spirit, run!"
Suddenly, someone let out a shocked cry, and then fled.
The others also reacted, and immediately scattered in all directions.
This kind of situation had happened recently, and anyone who was possessed by an evil spirit would lose their rationality. However, it was usually ordinary people or Qi Refining cultivators in the early or middle stages who were possessed, and this was the first time a Qi Refining cultivator in the later stages had been possessed.
A Qi Refining cultivator in the later stages who had lost their rationality and was completely reckless would have unimaginable destructive power, which was why everyone didn't care about the Qingyun Sect's threat and fled in all directions.
Chen Lin saw the situation and his eyes lit up, and he also followed the crowd, running towards the city gate.
