Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 480 True Man's Divine Power (Seeking Subscription)
As soon as these words came out.

Everyone present was shocked.

Shen Xuan actually challenged Master Lu!
The treasures they brought out were all third-tier treasures.

Especially that water-attribute spiritual weapon flying sword, which is the natal flying sword of Xiao Jingsong, a sword cultivator of the Qingyun Sect. It is full of spiritual light and of extraordinary quality.

The Sea Dragon King, the Sea Suppressor King, and the Everlasting Victory Ship Owner all looked at the magical flying sword and couldn't help but reveal a hint of greed.

"Of course. Master Lu's Taoist arts are profound, and I am definitely no match for him."

"Let's set a limit of one hundred breaths. If I, Shen, can still stand up within one hundred breaths, then Master Lu will have lost, is that alright?"

Shen Xuan said with a smile.

Master Lu scanned the area with his divine sense.

The immense pressure from the True Core Immortal, like Mount Tai pressing down, enveloped Shen Xuan.

Shen Xuan remained calm and unmoved.

Behind him, Zhuang Xueqin, who had just recovered somewhat, coughed up blood again under the pressure of Master Lu.

Zhuang Xueqin forced himself to remain silent, took a few steps back, covered his mouth with his hand, and dared not make a sound.

"Shen Xuan, do you really think that by refining your body to the Dharma Aspect Realm, you can contend with me?"

A Body Refiner at the Dharma Aspect Realm!

After Master Lu revealed Shen Xuan's trump card.

The King of Zhenhai and the owner of the Changsheng Ship suddenly realized what was going on.

The Demon Lord Xuan Ye and the Sea Dragon King, who already knew about it, remained calm and unperturbed.

Zhuang Xueqin was suddenly startled, his blood rushed to his head, and he couldn't help but cough violently.

Senior Brother Shen is a Body Refiner at the Dharma Aspect Realm!

This news left him in a state of shock and confusion.

He had never heard of this matter when he was at the Qingyun Sect.

Looking again at the magical flying swords on the deck, they seemed vaguely familiar.

It is extremely similar to the flying sword magic weapon of the disciples of the Spirit Sword Peak Battle Hall.

"So, Xiao Jingsong, the deputy leader of the Battle Hall, died at the hands of Senior Brother Shen?"

This conjecture sent shivers down Zhuang Xueqin's spine, filling him with dread.

Xiao Jingsong is a sword cultivator from Lingjian Peak, the deputy head of the Battle Hall, and is known as the number one fake Core cultivator in the Qingyun Sect.

His death occurred twelve years ago.

Now, Senior Brother Shen's strength is even more unfathomable.

Master Lu's true target is Senior Brother Shen.

He's jumping around like a clown.

Shen Xuan's smile remained unchanged: "Whether it's feasible or not, we'll only know after the match. Is Master Lu afraid to accept this bet?"

Master Lu nodded and said, "Very good. I will accept this bet."

In front of Shen Xuan, Li Mingjing put all three main ingredients of the Golden Elixir, the Azure Water Exquisite Fruit, and the Six Treasures Heart-Protecting Pill into a brand-new storage bag and threw it next to the spirit weapon flying sword.

Where is Fellow Daoist Xuan Ye?

Xuan Ye Demon Lord hesitated.

He glanced at Master Lu.

He then looked Shen Xuan up and down.

Finally, Demon Lord Xuanye said, "I am but a lowly woman, so I will not participate in your bet."

Shen Xuan nodded and said, "Alright. Let's make the deal first."

"it is good!"

Xuan Ye Demon Lord tossed out a blood-red jade box.

The demonic dragon's core inside the box churned, and a faint, extremely subtle roar could be heard from it.

Shen Xuan opened it and scanned it with his divine sense.

A jet-black demon beast core with intricate Dao patterns was placed inside.

"Just one demonic dragon core? Where's the demonic dragon's essence blood?"

Xuan Ye Demon Lord said irritably, "It's just a demon dragon core. The demon dragon's essence blood was in the hands of Gu Sha Demon Lord of Yin Sha Sect, but it was killed by an unknown cultivator who ambushed it. The whereabouts of the demon dragon's essence blood are unknown."

"This……"

Shen Xuan showed hesitation.

I am absolutely certain in my heart.

He made a pained expression on his face.

“Fellow Daoist Xuan Ye, the deal is fine, but you can take the demonic weapon first. You can make up for the third-tier demonic dragon blood essence you owe me within three years.”

Demon Lord Xuan Ye readily agreed: "Alright, it's settled then!"

Fearing that Shen Xuan might change his mind, she moved swiftly and took away the magic scissors from the deck.

……

Dark clouds hung heavily over Blood Snail Island.

Master Lu's feet manifested as a spiritual lotus, standing atop the clouds.

His natal spiritual artifact, the Primordial Divine Wood Umbrella, was summoned and slowly rotated above his head, protecting his entire body.

Opposite him, Shen Xuan also stood in mid-air, his blue robes fluttering in the strong wind.

The two were a hundred feet apart.

The air was constantly making popping sounds due to the impact of spiritual pressure.

Choosing the location of the duel above Blood Snail Island would obviously be advantageous to Master Lu.

Shen Xuan, a water-based cultivator, could not easily draw upon the vast water spiritual power of the East Sea.

These old foxes, even when they have the upper hand, are unwilling to suffer any loss.

"Master Lu, please enlighten me."

Shen Xuan clasped his hands in a fist salute and said.

Master Lu acted extremely quickly.

He formed a hand seal, pointed at Shen Xuan, and whispered, "Hurry!"

Hundreds of divine tree thorns appeared out of thin air, glowing with a faint blue light, and hurtled through the air with a whooshing sound.

Shen Xuan unleashed the Ice Soul Divine Sword.

A sword rang out.

The soaring sword energy transformed into countless dark ice fish, directly confronting the Divine Tree Thorn.

The cracking sounds continued incessantly.

After hundreds of divine wood spikes exploded, they were frozen by the icy cold air and fell down in a rustling sound.

"Thirty breaths!"

On the other side, Demon Lord Xuanye reported the time.

His voice trembled slightly.

With just this Qi-condensing ice-forming technique, Shen Xuan was able to contend with a pseudo-core cultivator.

This was merely a test between the two.

They are far from reaching their peak strength.

"Very good. Shen Xuan, with just this ice technique, you can dominate the Foundation Establishment realm."

Master Lu formed hand seals, and the Primordial Divine Wood Umbrella spun rapidly, emitting countless rays of azure spiritual light that spread to the surrounding hundreds of feet.

Subsequently, they coalesced into thirty-six towering giant trees, with countless branches waving like giant pythons, responding and connecting with each other.

"A third-tier formation, the Azure Wood Spirit Locking Formation, please give it a try!"

Shen Xuan's body trembled slightly, his spiritual energy stagnated, and its circulation speed slowed down by 30%.

Moreover, it continues to be slow.

"A third-tier formation?"

"so what!"

A crimson glint flashed in Shen Xuan's eyes.

【Illusion-Breaking Spirit Eye Technique】performed to its fullest extent.

He continuously formed hand seals.

[Insight], [Sharp observation], [Discerning], [Listening to all sides], [Good fortune], [Attracting wealth], [Avoiding misfortune]...

Shen Xuan roared.

The Ice Soul Divine Sword transformed into a frosty azure dragon, spitting out watery sword energy, and crashed directly into one of the towering trees.

It is precisely the location of the life gate of the Green Wood Spirit Locking Array.

Shen Xuan's skill in array formations has just reached the second-tier, lower grade.

If it's about formation, the skill level is average.

However, with the addition of the [Illusion-Breaking Spirit Eye Technique], as well as various perception and luck skills, his ability to break through formations was extremely high. Among the thirty-six towering trees, he found the gate of life at a glance.

There was a "boom".

The towering tree suddenly exploded.

A burst of lightning flashed from Shen Xuan's body.

The next moment.

Shen Xuan, using the Lightning Release Technique, appeared outside the Azure Wood Spirit Locking Array.

Although it's only a few feet from the edge.

However, it also escaped the range of the formation.

The Dragon King of the Sea, the King of the Sea, and the Captain of the Everlasting Victory looked at each other in bewilderment.

All three of them felt a chill.

Fortunately, they did not directly engage in combat with Shen Xuan.

Even now, Shen Xuan has not revealed his Dharma form, and has broken the third-order trapping formation temporarily set up by Master Lu with only his ice magic cultivation.

Of course, there are some shortcuts involved.

Shen Xuan must be skilled in formations.

They were able to find the exit point as soon as the formation was completed and fly out on their swords.

However, regardless of the circumstances, it is truly unbelievable that such combat power would appear in a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"Sixty breaths!"

Xuan Ye Demon Lord's voice became shrill.

As if urging someone on.

"very good!"

Master Lu reached out, and the Hunyuan Divine Wood Umbrella above his head suddenly shrank and fell into his hand.

The umbrella opens and closes.

The sky was dyed a deep turquoise.

Countless intricate runes flew out from the umbrella ribs, transforming into branches of divine wood.

In an instant, the entire world was dominated by a towering divine tree.

"A divine tree that blots out the sky!"

The scene before Shen Xuan's eyes suddenly changed.

He felt as if he were in an endless sea of ​​trees.

The veins on each leaf transform into imprisoning runes.

The spiritual energy within Shen Xuan's body was instantly frozen, unable to circulate.

In Dantian.

The nine-colored lotus bloomed vigorously, emitting bursts of precious light that illuminated the spiritual sea of ​​the Dao Foundation.

At that moment, a gust of wind suddenly arose.

Countless spirit leaves drifted toward Shen Xuan.

Envelop him in layers.

"Ninety breaths!"

The voice of the Demon Lord Xuan Ye carried a hint of joy.

She still hoped that Master Lu would win.

In mid-air, Master Lu's breathing suddenly became heavy.

Even for a true cultivator, using supernatural powers places an immense burden on their body and soul, and their spiritual energy is consumed as rapidly as the sea.

As the Primordial Divine Wood Umbrella rotated, the spiritual leaves enveloping Shen Xuan were constantly being squeezed.

However, everyone soon realized that something was wrong.

The rotation speed of the Hunyuan Divine Wood Umbrella is getting slower and slower.

Fine cracks appeared on the shimmering light on the umbrella surface.

Master Lu's breathing grew louder and louder, like a windmill.

"One hundred breaths!"

Xuan Ye Demon Lord had just finished announcing the time.

Master Lu's pupils suddenly contracted.

Suddenly, the Primordial Divine Wood Umbrella flew out of my hand.

Shen Xuan, enveloped by hundreds of spiritual leaves, burst forth with a golden light.

Soon, it pierced through the spirit leaf's seal and transformed into millions of golden rays.

"boom!"

The spirit leaves all burst open, turning into a mist that spread outwards.

A golden dragon dharma image appeared out of thin air from the spot.

With bared teeth and claws, it is lifelike.

Before the image of the dragon.

Wearing immortal armor and transformed into a sixteen-foot-tall golden body, Shen Xuan wielded a golden staff, unleashing a barrage of staff shadows that swept across the surrounding divine tree branches.

Leaves fell in profusion, and broken branches flew about in disarray.

Master Lu swayed, grasped the Primordial Divine Wood Umbrella again, and poured in several streams of spiritual energy.

however,
The endless sea of ​​trees has vanished.

Master Lu stared blankly at Shen Xuan opposite him.

A series of pains came from my chest.

"One hundred breaths!"

Xuan Ye Demon Lord suddenly shouted loudly.

The strong wind suddenly disappeared.

Shen Xuan clasped his hands in a respectful greeting to Master Lu.

"Concession!"

The dragon's form gradually disappeared.

Shen Xuan returned to his original form.

Master Lu glanced at the dimmed Hunyuan Divine Wood Umbrella.

Suddenly, he burst into laughter and said, "Good! The new generation surpasses the old! I've truly witnessed something today!"
"I've lost this bet!"

"Thank you for your guidance, Master Lu."

Shen Xuan bowed respectfully: "I have other matters to attend to, so I will return to Spring Breeze Island first."

"If Master Lu happens to be passing by, you may come and sit on the island."

Master Lu stroked his beard and said, “Very well. Once I’ve finished my current tasks, I will definitely go to Spring Breeze Island to drink and discuss the Dao with Fellow Daoist Shen.”

"Everyone, farewell!"

Shen Xuan flew down, snatched the magical flying sword and storage bag in front of Li Mingjing, picked up the dumbfounded Zhuang Xueqin, and transformed into a streak of light, disappearing into the distance.

Shen Xuan's figure disappeared.

The expressions on the faces of Xuan Ye Demon Lord, Sea Dragon King, Zhenhai King, Changsheng Ship Owner, and Li Mingjing were complex.

Li Mingjing, in particular, had a very long and miserable face.

All the treasures for Core Formation were gone.

Even for Master Lu, it would take a certain amount of time and effort to gather them all together again.

"If this person is so powerful, why is he living in seclusion in the Sea of ​​Stars?"

"Who exactly is Shen Xuan?"

"The King of Zhenhai and the owner of the Changsheng ship asked."

Xuan Ye Demon Lord glanced at Lu Zhenren.

Seeing that he did not object.

He then slowly said, "Shen Xuan is a disciple of the Qingyun Sect of the Song Kingdom. He is skilled in body tempering, ice magic, lightning magic, water magic, alchemy, and talisman making."

"He won first place in the Foundation Establishment Realm Technique Demonstration Competition of Qingyun Sect."

"It is said that he is a descendant of Shen Hanchong, the Water God of the Jin State, who lived a thousand years ago."

Upon hearing this, the Dragon King of the Sea exclaimed in amazement, "That True Lord Shen is incredibly strong, and legend has it that he has the power to move mountains and overturn seas, and to slay tigers and dragons!"

"Given his humble origins, how did he end up like this?"

Xuan Ye Demon Lord glanced sideways at the Sea Dragon King.

She said softly, "Because there are people in the Qingyun Sect of the Song Kingdom who cannot tolerate him."
