Immortality and Cultivation: Starting with Harvesting the Talents of Demonic Beasts

Chapter 93 Slaying a Late-Stage Player (Third Update, Please Subscribe)

However, the superior magical artifact was still in the distant sky and could not be controlled to rescue it. It could only immediately turn its body at low altitude in an attempt to avoid it.

At the same time, two low-grade [Golden Shield Talismans] were slapped onto his body, immediately creating two golden shields behind him.

The next moment, still feeling uneasy, he seized the opportunity to form a hand seal and add another layer of magical energy to his body.

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

When the cold wind touched the golden shield, it released its icy chill, causing the shield to tremble violently.

The first layer of the golden shield was cracked by the freezing, revealing a fine spiderweb.

The second layer didn't last long either, before it snapped and broke.

Upon contact with the protective barrier, its power was exhausted, and then the second [Frost Wind Talisman] followed closely behind, unleashing another torrent of frost!

"How come those scoundrels from the Xu family always use mid-grade talismans!"

Chen Guqing gritted his teeth, sensing something was wrong, and cursed inwardly!
He had used all his savings to acquire this superior-grade magic artifact, and he was powerless and felt there was no need to acquire too many mid-grade defensive talismans for protection.

As a result, they suffered a great loss.

The magical energy shield was breached, and the remaining cold air reached Chen Guqing's body. The cold sweat on his back froze directly, and a bone-chilling cold swept over him.

Fortunately, he managed to move aside, but one arm and one leg were still caught in the cold wind, causing blood to congeal and resulting in frostbite.

I stumbled and fell, my arms not quite nimble.

They are not very stable even when standing.

In the blink of an eye, the above scene unfolded in the blink of an eye.

Before Chen Guqing could catch his breath, a mid-grade [Giant Vine Talisman] had already burrowed into the ground, and the nearby trees, grass, and other plants were immediately drained of their wood-elemental spiritual energy, causing them to wither and die.

Then three ferocious vines, as thick as an adult's arm, darted across like giant pythons and bound Chen Guqing tightly.

The timing was extremely clever; Lin Changheng estimated that the enhanced comprehension brought about by the [Origin Treasure Seed] also boosted his understanding of combat techniques.

Only after the immense force of the entanglement came did Chen Guqing pinpoint the enemy's location.

Looking at the figure in black robes and a bamboo hat emerging from the ground, his face turned ashen, as if he had eaten a dead child.

"Earth Release? How could it possibly be Earth Release?"

The Five Elements Escape Technique is usually only practiced by those in the late Qi Refining stage, and it is not common in the cultivation world, being controlled by sects and large families.

Could this person not be a member of the Xu family?

“Fellow Daoist, since you are not a member of the Xu family, why should you take action on their behalf? I am a cultivator from the Chen family who was wiped out by the Xu family. I am only seeking revenge. If you are willing to spare me, I can offer up the Chen family’s hidden legacy.”

Chen Guqing immediately begged for mercy and even offered benefits, after all, in this area, who didn't know about the conflicts, past, and blood feud between the Xu and Chen clans?

Seeing that Lin Changheng remained unmoved, he shouted again, "I am willing to serve you like a slave, and follow you for eternity!"

At that moment, a cold smile curved the corners of Lin Changheng's lips beneath his mask, and he unleashed three low-grade [Fireball Techniques].

This fellow is truly cunning; he resorted to his old tricks again, feigning mercy while secretly channeling his magic to slow the progression of his injuries.

He is a completely treacherous and two-faced person.

If it weren't for Lin Changheng's mastery of the [Spirit Observation Technique], anyone else might have actually been fooled.

Three fist-sized fireballs roared toward Chen Guqing, who was tightly bound. The golden seal magic weapon, which had lost control in the distance, suddenly hummed softly, its connection severed by Chen Guqing, who was prepared. At the same time, a giant scythe and a black shield emerged from his storage bag.

The black shield was cold, gleaming with a chilling, metallic light, and suddenly grew as large as a door, heavily blocking the way.

The giant scythe trembled slightly, and like a farmer cutting grass with a sickle, it swept through the air and across Lin Changheng's neck. "Bang!"

A [Azure Dragon Banner] suddenly flew out from Lin Changheng's sleeve, its surface fluttering and radiating a brilliant azure light. A phantom dragon roared out from the banner, its scales and claws flying, forcefully blocking the giant scythe that was tearing through the air.

"Zheng——"

The clanging of claws against iron echoed across the land as the giant scythe's sharp blade clashed with the dragon's shadowy claws, scattering dazzling sparks.

Lin Changheng sneered, his fingertips forming a hand seal. The Azure Dragon Banner suddenly coiled up, and the dragon shadow wrapped around the giant scythe like a living creature, blocking it!
"what?"

What made Chen Guqing's pupils shrink even more was that
The three fist-sized fireballs in front of me had somehow grown to be as huge as the setting sun, their scorching heat and oppressive atmosphere making me feel as if three suns were shining in the sky!
He hurriedly activated the black shield, causing the iron light to surge, attempting to block all three fireballs.

"boom--!"

Three fireballs, as massive as setting suns, slammed into the black shield, unleashing a deafening roar. Instant waves of intense heat swept across the surrounding area, churning the scorched earth and distorting, steaming the air.

The black shield was destined to have a limited defensive area, and under the violent tremors, the power of flames and explosions swept past from the side.

Chen Guqing let out a muffled groan, his hair and beard were charred, and his robes turned to ash, sticking to his body, causing him unbearable pain!

But the giant vines that had bound him were thus destroyed and released.

Chen Guqing's feet sank deep into the ground, blood gushing from the corners of his mouth. Severely injured and utterly horrified, he nearly had his heart shattered: "His mastery of the superior-grade spell [Exploding Flame Technique] is so profound? And he can even convert between the inferior-grade [Fireball Technique] and the [Fireball Technique]?!"

Despair flashed in his eyes, and he was about to beg for mercy a second time.

But would Lin Changheng give him that chance?
With a flick of his sleeve, the [Wandering Bee Blade] shot out.

"laugh!"

With a spurt of blood, Chen Guqing felt his vision reverse, and then he continued to fall, landing on the yellow earth at his feet. He rolled around a few times, covered in dust, before finally stopping.

Only a withered, headless corpse remained, slowly collapsing to the ground.

That wasn't all. The [Wandering Bee Blade] continued to change direction, stabbing many bloody holes in the body before finally feeling at ease.

After quickly cleaning up the battlefield, he took out the storage bag from his waist and used the flames enhanced by the [True Meaning of Fire Control Divine Power] to reduce the corpses to ashes.

He then excitedly ran around to various places and acquired a high-grade defensive magic weapon and two mid-grade magic weapons, one offensive and one defensive.

The only drawback is that the two mid-grade magic artifacts cannot be used directly.

Otherwise, the appearance of this magical artifact, which carries a strong symbol of identity, would reveal the secret that Chen Guqing died at his hands.

In this battle of magic, only the superior-grade magic weapon was not taken out in front of everyone, but it is still unclear whether Chen Guqing used it at other times.

Therefore, it's best not to use it... Lin Changheng is cautious enough.

Yes, Lin Changheng intends to cover this up.

After all, his cultivation level on the surface was only the fourth level of Qi Refining, which he had been immersed in for quite some time.

Even with the help of the veiled female cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining, it was still not enough.

Sometimes, things are fine if you don't weigh them, but once you do, they weigh a ton.

It must be kept secret.

Fortunately, the female cultivator's consciousness was scattered during her final attack, which gave Lin Changheng the opportunity to fabricate facts and concoct evidence.

After a moment's thought, he had a draft in mind:

She said that when she arrived, she saw from afar that Chen Guqing was blinded by lust and had become a beast, intending to do something improper to the veiled woman. However, she struck him with a hidden talisman, and he was seriously injured...
