Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Chapter 462 Someone from Yaowang Valley

Figures flashed in the dense jungle, and several people in light blue clothes soon appeared in front of Zhong Qing's hut.

The leader had a handsome face, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and his every move exuded the aura of superiority that only a superior could have.

His eyes were as sharp as torches, staring intently at Zhong Qing's hut, as if he wanted to see through it. Then, he turned sideways to the man who looked like an attendant beside him and asked, "Are you sure this is the place?"

The attendant looked at the buzzing Soul-Chasing Bee in his hand, nodded firmly, and replied respectfully, "Brother Cen, yes, it's right here! The Soul-Chasing Bee is reacting very strongly."

Senior Brother Cen nodded slightly, then shouted towards the hut, "Junior Brother Zhong, I know you're in there. If you hand over the things, I'll let you go as long as we're fellow disciples. How about that?"

Inside the small room, Li Zhi quietly pushed the window open a narrow gap and carefully looked at the people outside through the gap.

Seeing this, his face instantly darkened. He quickly turned around and said to Zhong Qing with a serious expression, "There are seven people outside!"

If there were only one or two people on the other side, Li Zhi would naturally not be afraid. He was confident that with his own skills, it would not be difficult to deal with them.

But now the other side has as many as seven people. In Li Zhi's opinion, even if the other side is not good at fighting, his chances of winning against seven people alone are very slim.

After all, these people are not weak mortals. Each of them is a cultivator. The combined power of seven people cannot be underestimated.

In such a situation, how could Li Zhi protect Zhong Qing?

Zhong Qing keenly sensed Li Zhi's displeasure and saw that he was about to back down. He hurriedly and anxiously explained, "This...this I really had no idea about beforehand. Please help me..."

Anu, who was standing by, also had tears in her eyes. She grabbed Li Zhi's clothes tightly and begged, "Please, Brother Li, save us..."

However, Li Zhi was calm and determined as a rock, so how could he be easily moved by their words?

Just as he was about to refuse, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind. He turned to Zhong Qing and asked, "You guys in Yaowang Valley are good at growing herbs. Do you have anything like Dragon Blood Vine, Sky Python Grass, or Fission Flower?"

Zhong Qing was slightly startled when he heard this. These were all extremely precious treasures that Li Zhi was talking about. Even though he was from Yaowang Valley, he only owned a single plant of Tianmang Grass. But he quickly realized what was happening and quickly replied, "I have a Tianmang Grass!"

Li Zhi stretched out his hand without hesitation and said, "Give me the Sky Python Grass. I'll stay and hold them back. You guys take this opportunity to leave first."

Zhong Qing's eyes flickered, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, forcing a smile as he said, "As long as fellow Daoist can protect us, I will offer the Heavenly Python Grass to you with both hands."

Li Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze like a knife, and with a hint of disdain in his tone, he said coldly: "I don't want to know what you are thinking, and I have no interest in knowing. But if you want to use me to help you stop these people, hand over the Sky Python Grass first. Otherwise, I will leave now, and you can fend for yourself."

The smile on Zhong Qing's face froze instantly. He wanted to say a few more polite words, but when he saw Li Zhi's gloomy face, which was as cold as the water in a cold pond, he was so scared that he dared not say anything more.

He had no choice but to swallow back the words that were about to come out of his mouth, then quickly ran back to the room, took out a package, and carefully took out a small black and purple grass from it.

Li Zhi took the grass and looked at it carefully. He saw that the leaves of the grass had a unique appearance like python scales, with clear texture and a fishy smell similar to that of snakes.

After checking everything, Li Zhi carefully placed the Sky Python Grass in his arms and said to Zhong Qing, "You guys go, I'll do my best to stop them."

A trace of reluctance flashed in Zhong Qing's eyes. He took a deep look at the Tianmang Grass in Li Zhi's arms, then took Anu's hand and hurried towards the back door.

At this point, the patience of the people outside had been exhausted.

I only heard Senior Brother Cen coldly order: "Go in and bring Zhong Qing out to me, dead or alive!"

"Yes!"

The other six people beside Senior Brother Cen responded in unison, their voices uniform and loud, and then rushed towards the hut like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey.

However, before they even got close to the hut, a chilling wind suddenly swept over them, like an invisible hand, pushing them back. Everyone lost their footing and stumbled back a few steps.

Senior Brother Cen's eyes flashed with a stern expression as he decisively ordered, "Form a formation!"

Upon hearing this, the six people moved quickly and dispersed in an instant, each occupying a favorable position, and then quickly made hand gestures.

In an instant, a powerful and majestic aura burst out from the six of them, like an invisible wave, rushing straight towards the cabin.

"boom!!"

A dull and loud sound was heard, like thunder exploding in the plain.

The entire hut was instantly wiped out in half by the powerful attack of their formation, with bricks and stones flying and smoke and dust billowing.

However, amidst the thick smoke and dust, a strange and cold voice slowly rang out: "I was sleeping soundly...you...are you tearing my house down?"

Senior Brother Cen's face suddenly changed, and he secretly said something was wrong. He suddenly shouted, "Be careful!"

But just as he finished his words, thorny vines suddenly shot out from under the feet of his six fellow apprentices. These vines were like demons crawling out of hell, with fangs and claws bared, and instantly wrapped around their feet tightly.

The sharp barbs on the vines dug deep into the soles of their feet, causing them to scream in agony. Not only that, they found it difficult to break free from the vines for a while.

Seeing his fellow apprentices trapped in this predicament, Senior Brother Cen could no longer sit still. He tapped the ground lightly, and his figure shot out like a flash of green lightning. With a flick of his right hand at his waist, an emerald green sword instantly appeared in his hand, its blade flashing with a cold light.

He jumped high, drawing a graceful arc in the air, and the long sword in his hand was like a green streak, heading straight for Li Zhi.

Li Zhi's eyes were determined, showing no sign of retreat. He faced Senior Brother Cen, holding the black sword horizontally, and with a flat and slashing move, he met the opponent's sharp sword.

The two swords collided, sparks flew, and a crisp sound of metal collision was heard.

Senior Brother Cen's sword, with the help of the force of jumping, doubled its power and instantly suppressed Li Zhi, forcing Li Zhi to take a few steps back.

Seeing that Li Zhi was forced to retreat, Senior Brother Cen did not pursue him. Instead, he quickly turned around and swung the sword in his hand. A green sword energy whizzed out and instantly cut off the vines that were wrapped around everyone's legs and feet.

After Senior Brother Cen forced Li Zhi back with a sword, he did not pursue him, which surprised Li Zhi.

Moreover, when he turned around, his entire back was exposed to Li Zhi, which seemed to be full of flaws to Li Zhi.

Li Zhi did not hesitate. He tapped the ground with his feet and moved forward like an arrow. He did not retreat but advanced, holding the black sword tightly in his right hand. With a fierce murderous intent, he stabbed straight at the back of Senior Brother Cen.

The black sword was like a black lightning, instantly piercing Brother Cen's back.

However, the moment he stabbed the target, Li Zhi's face changed drastically. He was not happy about his success, but was filled with fear.

Because he sensed an extremely dangerous aura.

Li Zhi hurriedly put away his sword and was about to retreat, but it was too late.

A strong and violent force suddenly burst out from the place where Senior Brother Cen was stabbed by the sword in his back, like a bomb exploding in front of him. The powerful impact force directly blew Li Zhi away.
