My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 38 Temporary Rest
Just as the Gale Falcon staggered and fell,

Golden Needle Technique!
Shen Changchuan endured the pain in his head, forcefully summoned the magical power within his dantian, and activated two golden needles one after the other using the Golden Needle Technique.

The golden needles moved with lightning speed, so fast that everyone only saw a flash of golden light before their eyes.
In the blink of an eye, the golden needle arrived in front of the Gale Falcon, carrying extremely powerful force, piercing through the air. Its terrifying momentum was such that it could even penetrate a wall made of cast steel!

however,
Just when things were critical,
Sensing the threat, the Swift Falcon instinctively flapped its wings and unleashed a devastating wind blade. The blade spun rapidly, slicing through the air, and struck the golden needle with tremendous force.

Ding!
A crisp sound of metal clashing rang out.

The powerful force expanded, causing the air currents to ripple outwards.

The golden needle, imbued with immense power, was instantly cleaved away by the blow.

But at that very moment,
The terrifying power emanating from the golden needles erupted, repelling the Gale Falcon's sharp, blade-like wings and causing it to stagger backward, leaving it wide open.

And then,
The second golden needle followed immediately and pierced through.

It struck the Swift Falcon's leg squarely.
puff!
Blood exploded, and steel-like feathers scattered.
The Swift Falcon let out a sharp, mournful cry.

It seemed to have sensed a huge crisis.

Despite the pain in its legs, it instinctively flapped its wings and took flight, soaring into the sky like an arrow, disappearing into the heavens in the blink of an eye.

In the original place,
All that remained was an empty, desolate ground, with feathers and blood scattered all around.

It's a long story,
But in reality, from the moment the Swift Falcon swooped down from the sky, to its ambush by Shen Changchuan, and its eventual injury and escape, only a dozen or so breaths had passed.

not far away,
Shen Changchuan's pale complexion recovered slightly, and he finally caught his breath.

Did they run away?

Shen Changchuan gazed at the horizon, looking in the direction where the Gale Falcon had disappeared. His face showed no joy, but rather a hint of worry.

This battle,
He practically used every trick in the book.

And this was after they had ambushed and gained the upper hand.

But in the end,

But it only managed to injure the Gale Falcon!

fast!
That Gale Falcon was incredibly fast!

Both their flight speed and attack speed far surpass those of ordinary mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators.
Even those in the later stages of Qi Induction are not as good as him!

If Shen Changchuan hadn't mastered so many magical techniques that they were already perfected, allowing him to activate them almost instantly at will,
I'm afraid he doesn't even have the right to stand in front of this Gale Falcon!

It truly lives up to its reputation as an existence that even cultivators at the late stage of Qi Refining find difficult to deal with.

While thinking,

Shen Changchuan glanced at the Soul-Capturing Bell in his hand.
A sense of helplessness flashed through my mind.

This magical artifact is powerful, no matter how powerful it is.

However, when it attacks enemies, it also causes a certain impact on the user's consciousness.

Although this impact is only about one or two tenths of the attack received by the enemy.

But it does exist.

It will have a significant impact on oneself during the battle.

Shen Changchuan didn't understand the principle either.

This can only be attributed to the fact that this type of magical artifact is a special artifact that attacks a person's soul.

It must have its own unique features.

Think about it too,

Such a powerful magical artifact, if it didn't have some flaws, would probably be everywhere in the world.

"It's just a pity."

A faint hint of regret flashed in Shen Changchuan's eyes.

The backlash from going all out to activate the Soul-Capturing Bell was indeed unpleasant.

As a result, during the battle just now, after Shen Changchuan fully activated it to deal with the Gale Falcon, he himself was also stunned for several breaths, which allowed the opponent to seize the opportunity to counterattack.

Otherwise, the moment the Gale Falcon was controlled, unleashing seven or eight fireballs in quick succession would have been enough to blast it to death or severely injure it!
This will completely resolve the issue with the other party.

But unfortunately, there are no ifs in this world.

But speaking of it,
If one cultivates a method that can enhance divine sense, or consumes rare and precious herbs that can strengthen the spirit and consciousness, I wonder if it would be able to suppress the backlash of this Soul-Seizing Bell.
Shen Changchuan's heart stirred.

A few more thoughts began to surface in my mind.

There is a progress bar panel.

We can pay more attention to these aspects in the future.

"Changchuan, we won! This is wonderful!" "Now that the beast has been driven back, all the remaining spirit grains can be preserved!"

Just as Shen Changchuan was secretly pondering and reviewing the battle,
not far away,
Han Qinhu picked up the golden needles that had been knocked away by the Gale Falcon and handed them back to Shen Changchuan, his face revealing undisguised excitement.

He couldn't help but be unhappy.
The terrifying power of the Gale Falcon's first dive attack is still vivid in my mind.
Its speed was virtually unmatched, so fast that even a shadow couldn't be caught. If it were to attack them, it could kill them in the blink of an eye; it would be a slaughter without any chance of escape.

How can we even talk about dealing with this?

Han Qinhu was prepared for the enemy to wreak havoc, causing heavy losses to the twelve acres of spirit fields.

Unexpectedly, his grandson suddenly pulled out some kind of magical artifact and knocked the beast down.

The ensuing series of confrontations were thrilling,
But the final result,

Ultimately, it ended with the other party being injured and fleeing in a sorry state!
Han Qinhu was initially worried about what would happen to the thousand catties of spirit grain that had to be handed over to the Shen family after the spirit fields were destroyed by the Gale Falcon.
As a result, now,

Apart from the nearly ten pounds of spirit grain that was initially swallowed by the Gale Falcon, the rest was almost completely intact!
This made him, who was nearly sixty years old,
It all created a rollercoaster-like feeling of ups and downs!
"It can only be said that the matter has come to a temporary end, and it cannot be said that we have won yet."

Shen Changchuan remained very calm.
Shaking his head slightly,

He took the golden needle that Han Qinhu handed him.

At this moment, the gold needle, as thick as a finger, was bent at a visible angle from the middle, and its entire surface dimmed.

It was clearly completely unusable.

Shen Changchuan sighed inwardly.

Two gold needles

Before this, it had always been his most powerful trump card, his trump card.

He has made many contributions.

But now one is unusable.
The other one was on the Swift Falcon, and it was taken away with it.

This battle,
It is truly unsatisfactory.

"We failed to capture that guy; we've only managed to force him to retreat."

"If we wait until he recovers and then comes back to take revenge, things will be even more troublesome."

Monsters

They are generally more intelligent than ordinary wild animals.

And they hold grudges.

Just like the crocodile demon in the river that we killed back then.

If the Gale Falcon recovers from its injuries and returns for revenge, and I don't have a way to deal with it...
That would be a huge problem.

after all,

That beast was incredibly fast; it was flying in the sky, controlling the air.
Come when you want and leave when you want.

and,

Having been ambushed once,

That Swift Falcon will most likely be wary of the Soul-Capturing Bell.

The next time the Soul-Capturing Bell is used, the effect will probably not be as good as the first time.

"Alright, Grandpa, let them harvest these spirit grains first."

Seeing Han Qinhu's expression change slightly, revealing his worry.

Shen Changchuan waved his hand, indicating that he should deal with the current matter first.

There's really no need to worry too much.

A strike combined with the Golden Needle Technique is not so pleasant.

The opponent's injuries,
It will take at least one to two months to recover.

Even if it's revenge,
It will take one to two months before it can be done.

During this time,

Taking advantage of the gathering of the Wu family caravan, I can go and see if there are any magical artifacts or spells that can counter them.

Although it seems a bit troublesome

But Shen Changchuan remained calm.

At least in this encounter,
This also allowed him to figure out the methods of the Gale Falcon, so he would have more detailed information to deal with it in the future, right?
Facing difficulties one step at a time,
There's always a way.
