Cultivating Immortality: Starting from Ferrying Passengers

Chapter 82 Return with Fortune
"kill!"

A sharp golden knife flashed by, instantly cutting a Qi-refining monk in front of him into two pieces. Then the knife turned, rolled up the storage bag scattered on the ground, and took it back.

Fang Jingxuan looked at Han Feiyu's smooth movements with a hint of envy in his eyes. How come this kid is so skilled at doing this kind of thing?

The Lin family's formation was broken, and the cultivators inside had no intention of fighting to the death. They all wanted to hide or escape with their wealth.

With this kind of mentality, how could they be a match for the cultivators like Fang Jingxuan? Moreover, Fang Jingxuan and his men were outnumbered, often with more than ten of them surrounding one person, and there was no risk of failure at all.

However, after they had robbed a few people and obtained a few storage bags, the Chu family sent an order, ordering Fang Jingxuan and his Bing Battalion to go to the back mountain to defend, so as to prevent anyone from the Lin family from escaping.

"Damn it! We're not allowed to visit any good places, just let us have some soup. The Lin family's warehouse, medicinal fields, Sutra Library, and Tongcan Hall, none of these have anything to do with us anymore!"

Lu Kui kept complaining, which made Fang Jingxuan frown. It was time to pick the fruits, and who would like to be sent out?

But he had no choice but to obey the Chu family's orders. After seeing the Chu family's methods, Fang Jingxuan didn't want to bring bad luck to the Chu family.

"Camp Commander, we don't need to go with all of us. Just half of us can go. The rest of the monks can continue to search here, and then we can divide the spoils equally among our team."

At this time, Sima Shang put forward a compromise opinion, and suddenly everyone's mind became clear.

Yes, I just told someone to go to the back mountain to defend, but can’t I leave a few people behind?
"Okay, let's do it this way. Cao Wujiu, Lu Kui, Sima Shang, the three of you will lead the team to continue the search. Han Feiyu, Lu Yue, we will take the others away!"

Fang Jingxuan gave the order quickly and without delay, he separated the two groups and went about their work.

Fang Jingxuan led the team to the back mountain and found that several other teams of monks had already arrived there.

When they saw Fang Jingxuan had so few people, they immediately understood and said to Fang Jingxuan in frustration:
"You guys are so cunning. Why didn't we think of only sending a dozen people?"

Fang Jingxuan stepped forward and laughed it off, saying that they were all miserable people, so there was no need to provoke each other.

"What's there to guard this back mountain? Would the Lin family be so stupid as to run away from this place? Don't they have any tunnels or something?"

Some people raised questions and vented their resentment. In their opinion, even if the Lin family wanted to escape, they would not break out from here. Every family has an escape route, which is located hundreds of meters underground and leads directly to more than ten miles away. Isn't this safer than escaping on land?
But sometimes, the unexpected just happens.

A black fog suddenly enveloped the surroundings, and even with the eyesight of a cultivator, one could not see things more than three meters away.

"Ah, this fog is poisonous!"

Following a few heart-wrenching shouts, several monks accidentally inhaled the mist and rolled on the ground in agony, not even having time to take the detoxification pills in their storage bags.

The same was true for Fang Jingxuan, but at the critical moment, Han Feiyu waved his hand, and a strong wind blew away the poisonous fog around everyone.

Although the poisonous creature kept coming towards them, everyone was prepared with this short buffer of a few breaths.

All of a sudden, all kinds of protective talismans were slapped on their bodies, detoxification pills were held in their mouths, and several magic weapons were sacrificed. For a while, the poisonous creature no longer posed any threat at all.

"Good job, Han Feiyu. Let's fight our way out and pay attention to the enemy's position."

Fang Jingxuan commanded everyone to quickly leave this place and stay away from the range of the poisonous fog.

Tuo Yuan also used the tortoise breathing technique to close the pores all over his body, so he did not inhale any of the poisonous mist.

"Flame Talisman!"

Fang Jingxuan waved his hand and activated three flame talismans, and then a flash of fire appeared in front of him, burning the poisonous creatures in front of him to pieces.

"Camp Commander, what should we do with these poisoned monks?"

Fang Jingxuan looked over and found that it was a cultivator from another camp who had just been accidentally poisoned and was now unconscious on the ground.

"Never mind that for now, we need to find the real culprit and stop this at the source."

The poisonous fog came in a strange way, and Fang Jingxuan was sure that it was the work of the remnants of the Lin family. He took Tu Yuan with him and left the range of the poisonous fog in just a few breaths.

"Over there! Three feet underground, Han Feiyu, Lu Yue, use your magic weapons to blast them out!"

Following Fang Jingxuan's command, Han Feiyu threw out a golden sword, and Lu Yue also used his own magical weapon, a demon-subduing pestle! "Boom!"

Following several loud explosions, several figures appeared from the ground.

The leader was a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining, but now he was surrounded by demonic energy and had obviously fallen into the devil's way.

"Hehehe, you ruined my good thing, go to hell!"

Without further ado, the two sides immediately started fighting. Fang Jingxuan's side had more people and more power, while the opponent had strange skills and high cultivation level.

Whenever this demon cultivator attacked, large clouds of poisonous fog would surge up, and the air would be filled with a sweet and fishy smell.

Even with detoxification pills and protective talismans, the poisonous gas slowly corroded everyone's bodies.

However, Fang Jingxuan discovered that because of his body training, the power of this poisonous gas seemed to have less impact on him.

He looked at Lu Yue, who was at the fifth level of Qi Refining. His face had turned green, which was obviously a sign of chronic poisoning. He only felt a little short of breath, and had no other special symptoms.

Could it be that the wood-based body-refining technique is specifically designed to counter this poisonous fog?

Before Fang Jingxuan could think about it, the cultivators from the other teams who were not seriously poisoned also joined the battle.

Seeing that everyone was beginning to feel dizzy, Fang Jingxuan immediately took out the bronze bell and released three consecutive "Heart Cleansing Mantras", which shocked everyone's minds.

At the more critical moment, Fang Jingxuan cast the 'Immovable Golden Bell Curse' on Lu Yue, putting him at the front. No matter how crazy the demon cultivator was, it was of no use.

It's like practicing magic and damaging your brain.

Finally, with a sneak attack from Han Feiyu, he used a golden bamboo sword to instantly pierce the head of the demon cultivator and smashed it to pieces.

Then the small sword turned and rolled up the storage bag quietly.

"Someone from the Chu family is coming, hurry up and save them!"

At this time, the Chu family also received the news here and sent people to support. The one who came was Chu Yunshen holding a sword.

He glanced at the scene coldly, then his gaze lingered on Han Feiyu for a few moments, and then he left with the sword in his arms.

Obviously, the matter here has been resolved and there is nothing worth him staying for any longer.

After that, nothing unexpected happened. After all, the Lin family was not a foundation-building family. It would be a big deal if they could produce a demon cultivator in the late Qi Refining stage. How could they produce cultivators in the late Qi Refining stage all the time?
By the next day, everything was settled. The Chu family arrested the head of the Lin family and seized a lot of physical evidence. The truth was now out and the Ning family could no longer deny it.

Three days later, Fang Jingxuan was rewarded for his merits and received a lot of wealth. This was a reward from the Chu family for his good command and his achievement in killing the demon cultivator.

But this is not all that Fang Jingxuan obtained. The storage bag from the demon cultivator is the bulk of it.

Chu Shenfeng said that during the battle, whoever seizes the spoils will own them, so Han Feiyu does not need to hand over the storage bag.

But at that time, Fang Jingxuan's side was a whole, everyone was contributing, and Han Feiyu couldn't take it all for himself, so Fang Jingxuan asked everyone to speak with spirit stones, and the one who offered the highest price would take it and use it to compensate others.

After this battle, Fang Jingxuan's team also lost four people, one of whom was killed in an ambush while fighting with Cao Wujiu.

The remaining three people were killed by the demon cultivator. Although everyone was very cautious, the demon cultivator was in the late stage of Qi Refining after all, and sometimes he was really unstoppable.

Five days later, the cultivators recruited by the Chu family began to slowly disband, and the same was true for Fang Jingxuan's B8 Battalion.

It costs ten low-grade spirit stones to recruit people every day, and the Chu family obviously doesn't want to support these people for nothing.

Fang Jingxuan didn't know what agreement the Chu family and the Ning family had reached, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that the two sides could not fight each other.

With the disbandment of the Bingba Battalion, Fang Jingxuan also had no job. The Lin family was currently occupied by the Chu family and the Ning family. The place was too small to support so many cultivators, so Fang Jingxuan took his full harvest and followed a group of cultivators on his journey home.
