The abandoned cannon fodder girl's path to immortality

Chapter 180 After the Calamity
After leaving Xieyue Tower, Chen Jinshu took out the white curtain and then disappeared into the crowd.

Guided by the Yinshan Sparrow, she soon spotted the figures of the two cultivators with their distinct auras.

The two followed closely behind, one in front and one behind, but their clothes and outfits seemed to have no relation whatsoever.

The first person was dressed as a typical rogue cultivator, while the second person wore a black robe.

"If the two know each other, dealing with them would be quite tricky."

Under her observation technique, their cultivation levels were clearly revealed; both were at the peak of Qi Refining, just a hair's breadth away from breaking through to Foundation Establishment.

However, she has already reached the Foundation Establishment stage, and with the Yinshan Sparrow's cultivation at the ninth level of Qi Refining, her chances of defeating these two are still very high.

A moment later, Chen Jinshu watched as the two left Pingwufang Market one after the other.

"Shadow Mountain Sparrow, shrink down and follow them. If I follow, I'll be too conspicuous." She thought of something and said to the blue Shadow Mountain Sparrow on her shoulder.

"Yes, Master!" Upon hearing this, the Yinshan Sparrow shrank even smaller, becoming the same size as the Fire Sparrow from before, but its color was a mix of gray and white, clearly indicating that it was a mixed-blood bird.

Chen Jinshu was very satisfied with the changes in the Yinshan Sparrow's appearance. After releasing it out of the market, he pretended to browse the stalls nearby.

This place is located ten miles from Pingwufang Market.

Two figures walked one after the other, followed by several tiny birds in the sky.

The Yinshan tit mingled directly with the flock of birds and flew forward.

From where the Yinshan Sparrow was looking, two human cultivators were chasing each other without yielding to one another.

Although it didn't understand it, it still transmitted what it saw to Chen Jinshu.

Chen Jinshu had already left the market and was heading this way. After receiving the image information from the Yinshan Sparrow, he unconsciously quickened his pace.

She estimated that the two would start fighting about twenty or thirty miles away.

Her goal was simple: to play the victim behind the scenes.

A sparse, dense forest about twenty miles away.

The rogue cultivator in front suddenly stopped and said coldly to the black-robed cultivator behind him, "I wonder what you're trying to do by following me?"

The moment the sound was released, the rogue cultivator revealed his true form, becoming a burly man with a thick beard. His once youthful, scholarly face was now covered with a beard, and his physique quickly became robust.

He chuckled, a hint of mockery in his eyes.

"It seems you're quite the expert, fellow Daoist. You actually feigned weakness to lure me here!" the black-robed cultivator said grimly.

"Hehe! Otherwise, how could you greedy rogue cultivators be tempted to provide me with resources?" the burly man with the bushy beard said with a sly smile.

The shady tit flew to a branch not far away and silently observed everything.

His gaze fell on the burly man with the bushy beard, and he thought to himself that the other party also knew such transformation techniques.

"It's not certain who will provide resources for whom!" The black-robed cultivator sneered, then patted the brocade pouch at his waist.

'Buzzing...'

In an instant, a large number of dark spirit bees flew out of the brocade pouch, turning into a sea of ​​insects in the void, and under his guidance, they attacked the big man in front of them.

"So you're a cultivator specializing in insects, fellow Daoist! Unfortunately, I'm also a cultivator of insects, and my spirit insects are even more powerful than yours!"

The burly man with a bushy beard slapped his belt, and a series of even more intense buzzing sounds came from his waist. Then, a winged spirit insect with a huge mouth flew out, its dark mass covering the entire sky.

"Giant toothed worm!" the black-robed cultivator exclaimed in astonishment.

The two groups of spirit insects then clashed and began to fight.

Before long, a large number of dead spirit insect corpses fell from the void.

The majority of these corpses were spirit bees. "Damn it!" the black-robed cultivator cursed under his breath, then slapped his pouch again. A pair of peacocks immediately flew towards the spirit insects in the sky, their moon-like feathers adorned with emerald-like eye spots.

Her beauty was tinged with an undeniable murderous intent.

As the peacock took flight, it unfurled its tail feathers, sending a barrage of feathers flying like tiny arrows toward the giant toothed beetle.

Numerous green streaks of light flashed across the void, as magnificent as shooting stars.

"There's actually such a powerful emerald peacock!" A dark glint flashed in the eyes of the burly man with a bushy beard.

A sense of retreat gradually arose within me.

He immediately urged the spirit insects to attack the black-robed cultivator, while he himself vanished from the spot.

The enormous figure nimbly transformed into a pale yellow breeze and vanished.

"Trying to leave? Not so easy!" The black-robed cultivator sneered, his figure instantly transforming into a gust of black wind as he suddenly gave chase.

When Chen Jinshu arrived, he saw a large number of dead spirit insects on the ground, many of which were still struggling.

"The battle is really intense!" She moved immediately and chased after the target.

……

Half an hour later, Chen Jinshu silently stood on the branch of the tree where the Yinshan Sparrow was, holding the Green Jade Zither.

She had followed them all the way and watched the two fight for a long time. She was now basically certain that the black-robed cultivator was indeed Li Chenliang.

The methods used were almost identical to those used a few years ago.

However, since both of them were at the peak of Qi Refining, their battle was extremely fierce, and they used a variety of techniques, leaving each other with considerable injuries.

His breath had also weakened considerably.

"Fellow Daoist! How about we stop here? You can't do anything to me, and I can't take your life. If this continues, it will surely attract other cultivators!" The burly man with a bushy beard pleaded for peace, his clothes were already tattered, and his spiritual energy was nearly half depleted.

"Cultivate immortality!" the black-robed cultivator said somewhat maniacally. He had already lost many spirit pets in his pursuit of the big man, so how could he give up?

Just then, a sound as sharp as tearing silk came from the zither, causing their heartbeats to drop to an extreme.

Chen Jinshu traced a line on the Green Jade Zither with his fingertip, and a wave of green musical notes rippled outwards.

'Ding ding dong...'

In an instant, a melodious tune began to play, but the transformed sound waves spread outwards like sword blades.

In a daze, it seemed as if a blue crane was crying out, piercing through the light waves, and about to tear my eardrums.

With a swift flick of her ring finger, numerous thorny blue vines immediately sprang from the ground and began to entwine the two who were now frozen in place.

As soon as the two heard that tearing sound from the zither, they were pulled into another illusion by her zither illusion magic.

"Ah!" The black-robed cultivator groaned in pain, blood gushing from his eyes, ears, and nose, his expression contorted.

The burly man with the bushy beard was in slightly better condition, but his face was contorted in pain and purplish, as if he were being choked by two hands.

The Yinshan tit flew overhead and let out a long cry. As it flew past, it caught two peacocks with its claws.

If it weren't for the fact that a living peacock is more valuable, and Chen Jinshu had allowed it to live, it would have killed it long ago.

Chen Jinshu quickly plucked the strings of the zither, and the sound of the zither instantly became sharp. Countless long beaks of blue cranes transformed into long swords and stabbed towards the necks of the two people in front of him.

'Whoosh! '

With two sharp "splat!" sounds, the crane's long beak pierced the necks of both men, spurting out several streams of blood...
