After my Daoist partners broke off their engagement, they pledged their loyalty to me!

The purple-robed cultivator's angry shouts still echoed above the Spirit Marrow Pool. Jiang Lin's eyes flashed with cold light, and he had lost all interest in wasting words.

Without moving, the Shattered Star Bow was held in his hand, and lightning spiritual power surged into the bow like a tide. As the bowstring vibrated, nine Shattered Star Arrows were already nocked.

"He's really courting death!" The purple-robed cultivator was furious when he saw that the other dared to take the initiative to attack. He roared and urged his spiritual power.

The oppressive aura of someone at the early stage of the Qi Sea Realm swept out.

A dazzling blade of light flashed from the long sword in his hand.

Jiang Lin activated the Thunder Heart Sutra without hesitation, and an invisible thunderclap exploded in the ears of the purple-robed cultivator.

Taking advantage of the moment his body faltered, he released the arrow: "Nine Starfall Arrows!"

"Nine arrows in quick succession!"

Nine streaks of lightning tore through the air.

The arrowhead, wreathed in raging lightning energy, shot straight at the purple-robed cultivator like a meteor chasing the moon.

Nine Shattering Star Arrows blocked all his escape routes.

When the purple-robed cultivator regained his senses from the thunderous explosion, his expression changed drastically.

In the rush, he only had time to wield his longsword into an impenetrable defense to block the first six arrows.

Then came the three most powerful arrows.

He couldn't stop it.

The arrow pierced through the blade's edge with three muffled thuds.

They pierced through his dantian and vital points.

The purple-robed cultivator's eyes widened as his body crashed to the ground.

Block? What can you use to block?!

He is not Zhang Lengyu.

Zhang Lengyu came from the Flying Swallow Sect and was wearing a high-quality item like a low-grade Xuan-level spiritual treasure soft armor.

Even Zhang Lengyu could only suffer a bitter defeat when faced with Jiang Lin's Nine Swords Strike, let alone a rogue cultivator like him.

The purple-robed cultivator's life force was cut off; he never expected that a mere Yuan Dan realm cultivator could possess such strength.

A sudden and decisive victory.

This left all the cultivators in the audience frozen in place!

The mockery and greed of moments before instantly froze into horror.

This guy who looks like a pretty boy is actually incredibly strong.

"Make your move!" Tao Yi shouted coldly after receiving Jiang Lin's telepathic message, and flicked out a fourth-tier lightning explosion talisman from her fingertip.

The talisman exploded in the air, and raging lightning snakes swept towards the remaining five cultivators.

The fourth-tier Thunder Explosion Talisman was prepared by Jiang Lin.

It was left with Tao Yi, just in case.

Ling Xue was equally decisive.

The fourth-tier ice sword talisman was thrown out, and as the cold air spread, the ground instantly froze into ice, attempting to restrict the movement of the five people.

With a flick of her wrist, Zhang Lengyu unfurled an ancient scroll—a scroll containing a spirit array!

Fourth tier, Ice Thorn Dance Formation!

The Ice Thorn Dance Array took shape, with ice-attribute spiritual energy patterns weaving into a net that enveloped the five people.

"Master, this is my trump card. I underestimated you when we fought before and didn't have time to use it. Today, it's a good opportunity for them to taste it!" She said to Jiang Lin telepathically.

Ice elemental power was injected into the array, and the light net tightened instantly.

The five early-stage Qi Sea Realm cultivators reacted extremely quickly; although trapped by the spirit array, they did not panic.

"Mountain-Splitting Palm!" A burly cultivator roared and slapped out his palms, his spiritual energy condensing into palm shadows.

This was the strongest martial art he had mastered, its power reaching the initial stage of the Profound Rank. His palm strike slammed fiercely into the array net.

Another cultivator in green robes unleashed a fourth-tier Berserker Talisman, sending dozens of dense, blade-like beams of light slashing towards the energy array. He shouted, "Quickly join forces to break the array! These three women are not to be trifled with!"

"The Hand That Transforms Silk into Rain!"

A female cultivator formed hand seals, her spiritual energy transforming into countless threads. These threads were incredibly sharp, even slicing through the surrounding boulders, attempting to entangle the ice sword attack condensed from Ling Xue's ice sword talisman.

The remaining two also unleashed their signature skills, continuously attacking the Ice Thorn Dance Formation and Tao Yi and Ling Xue's talisman attacks.

The spirit array trembled incessantly.

Although the fourth-order spirit array was powerful, it could not withstand the combined attack of five early-stage Qi Sea Realm cultivators, and cracks had already appeared.

Ling Xue rushed into the chaotic ice thorn formation, her sword swirling with lightning spiritual energy, each strike accompanied by the sound of thunder cutting through the air.

She let out a sharp cry, and her longsword pierced through the wind blades, heading straight for the green-robed cultivator's throat, forcing him to hastily retreat to defend.

Zhang Lengyu pushed her icy spiritual power to its limit, causing a sudden surge of cold air within the spiritual array, freezing the five people's spiritual energy circulation: "Frost Crystal Spike!"

The icy spiritual energy gathered, and an ice spike suddenly rose from beneath the female cultivator's feet.

The two instantly became entangled in combat.

Between the exchange of moves, bursts of spiritual energy resounded.

Tao Yi didn't rush in; her cultivation at the late stage of the Yuan Dan realm was a bit insufficient.

Although all five were at the early stage of the Qi Sea Realm and possessed Xuan-rank martial arts, Ling Xue and Zhang Lengyu came from major sects, and their techniques and martial arts were more refined.

At the same time, they were all Jiang Lin's female slaves, and they cooperated well with each other.

In addition, there's the restraint from the Ice Thorn Dance Formation.

In an instant, the five people were completely suppressed by them.

The booming sound of spiritual energy colliding echoed through the mountains.

Jiang Lin's gaze swept across the battlefield.

Seeing that the five people were being held back, he grabbed the Shattered Star Bow again.

The Shattering Star Bow was fully drawn, and the Nine Starfall Arrows were fired once more.

He locked onto a burly cultivator who was attacking the spirit array with all his might. This man's defense was relatively weak, and he was in the process of exhausting his old strength and not yet generating new strength.

"That archery skill again!" a cultivator exclaimed, still vivid in his mind the scene of killing the purple-robed cultivator with nine arrows last time.

The burly cultivator sensed the deadly danger, his face turned ashen, and he hurriedly turned around to try to activate his spiritual power for defense.

But Jiang Lin's arrows were too fast.

The Nine Arrows of Starfall shot out again, and although they were not fully activated this time, they were still unstoppable.

Puff puff!

Several arrows pierced through his spiritual energy defenses and entered his body. The burly cultivator screamed in agony as his Qi Sea shattered.

The remaining four cultivators' expressions changed drastically upon seeing this.

The thought of retreating began to take root in my mind.

They were a temporary team, and now that two of them have been lost, they will surely die if they continue fighting.

Although the Spirit Marrow Pool is incredibly precious, it would be far too wasteful to lose one's life in the struggle for its location!

Two of the cultivators exchanged a glance, both seeing ruthlessness in each other's eyes. Taking advantage of the chaos of the battle, they suddenly changed the direction of their attack.

"Poison Shadow Strike!"

The spiritual power this person cultivated was actually a rare poison attribute. Poisonous thorns with a ghostly green poisonous light condensed in front of him and pierced the chest of his female companion beside him.

The other man unleashed a low-level Xuan-rank Flaming Fist, punching the other man in the back of the head: "Sorry, brother!"

Two screams rang out almost simultaneously.

The remaining two cultivators instantly collapsed into pools of blood, their blood splattering onto the energy net of the Ice Thorn Dance Array, where it was frozen into pillars of blood by the cold air.

After doing all this.

The two cultivators who betrayed their companion turned around, their faces plastered with fawning smiles, and bowed to Jiang Lin.

"Since the four of you are so strong, then the location of the Spirit Marrow Pool is rightfully yours."

"That's good. With the two of us, that makes six spots. Shall we call it a day?"

They deeply understand that those who adapt to the times are the heroes.

Jiang Lin's archery skills and martial arts are terrifying.

Rather than fighting head-on, it's better to back down.

Jiang Lin looked at the two of them showing weakness, his eyes remaining completely unmoved. He withdrew the lightning spiritual power that had been dancing on his fingertips and said calmly, "Fine, you should have done this earlier."

The two felt as if they had been granted a pardon and quickly smiled apologetically.

The surrounding cultivators were terrified.

Looking at Jiang Lin with eyes full of awe, he no longer dared to show the slightest provocation.

"Where did this amazing person come from? They're incredible!"

"One person leading three women of different kinds, they're no ordinary characters. Hehe, those four Qi Sea Realm cultivators who died are just unlucky. Now they're in deep trouble."

"They seem to be from the Misty Holy Land."

"Aren't Li Qingyuan and Zeng Muxue the strongest in the Misty Holy Land? Where did this incredibly powerful guy come from? I've never heard of him before..."

"It's normal that he might get some kind of lucky break and soar to great heights."

"Where is your focus? I'm not envious of his strength; I'm only envious of having three stunningly beautiful female cultivators as his teammate!"

"Shh! You're asking for trouble, kid. Haven't you seen how fierce he is? Watch your mouth!"

"Uh... I'm outta here. This Spirit Marrow Pool is no use to me. I'd better hurry up and look for other places."

"..."

Jiang Lin put away the Shattered Star Bow, ignoring the whispers and discussions around him, and his gaze swept over the invisible barrier of the Spirit Marrow Pool.

The area is now mostly empty.

He walked slowly towards the edge of the pool.

Tao Yi, Ling Xue, and Zhang Lengyu followed closely behind. The three of them maintained a calm demeanor, indicating that the fierce battle had not depleted their spiritual energy.

Zhang Lengyu glanced at the corpses on the ground, her icy eyes showing no emotion. To her, these people were simply obstacles in her path.

Ling Xue cautiously scanned her surroundings to prevent any cultivators from launching a sneak attack; the allure of the Spirit Marrow Pool was too great.

Tao Yi walked to Jiang Lin's side and transmitted her thoughts to him, saying, "Master, the spiritual marrow in this spiritual marrow pool is extremely pure and will greatly benefit your cultivation."

Jiang Lin nodded slightly.

He probed the Spirit Marrow Pool with his spiritual sense, feeling the rich energy within, and the smile on his lips grew even wider.

Now that he has entered the early stage of the Yuan Dan realm, he often has to calculate in half a year or a year to break through his cultivation level.

With this Spirit Marrow Pool now, the time should be greatly shortened, and it would be best to step into the mid-stage of the Yuan Dan realm in one step!

The four powerful figures who had already secured their spots by the Spirit Essence Pool also turned their gazes to Jiang Lin and his group of four.

Lin Yueshuang still held the black spirit sword, a hint of surprise flashing in her cold eyes.

Look at Jiang Lin's clothes.

They must be disciples of the Misty Holy Land.

She had never heard of such a formidable person before.

Jiang Lin looked up at the top of Lin Yueshuang's head.

[380 points of Chaos Energy]

Nearly four hundred points of chaotic energy!

This is the female cultivator with the highest chaotic energy that Jiang Lin has seen so far, besides Xu Hongxi.

However, his strength is too great. If he doesn't update his enslavement seal technique, he can forget about this.

Moreover, although Jiang Lin had taken in several female slaves, he still had his own bottom line. He would not take any female cultivators who did not provoke him into becoming his slaves.

Those who became his female slaves—Su Yao, Chun Yu, Tao Yi, Ling Xue, and most recently Zhang Leng Yu—all of them had provoked him first.

After Ling Xue and Zhang Lengyu were enslaved by him, he also made them introduce the powerful disciples who had entered the sect.

He knew Lin Yueshuang; she was a leading figure among the female disciples who had entered the Three Swords Sect.

"Whoever it is, I hope they don't mess with me..." Jiang Lin muttered to himself.

The two men, both at the mid-stage of the Qi Sea Realm, had somewhat solemn expressions. They could tell that Jiang Lin's cultivation was only at the Yuan Dan Realm, but they couldn't tell whether it was the mid-stage or late-stage. However, the combat power he displayed was truly terrifying.

Wu Meier licked her red lips, a playful glint in her eyes, and looked at Jiang Lin as if she had spotted some interesting prey.

"Hehe, practicing dual cultivation with such a handsome young man should be quite an experience!"
