I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 284 Meeting Shen Xulong Again

"The contract only restricts our Lingyun Sect, but not others. If someone else seizes it, what does it have to do with us? So whether there is a contract or not, we can only guard against the handover. I think we are well aware of this, and that person should also be aware of it." Elder Jin said coldly.

"Then why did Senior Brother Jin..."

"Do you really think that this person is only at the late stage of foundation building?" Elder Jin waved his hand and smiled coldly.

“With my eyesight, I really can’t tell that he has hidden his cultivation. But if you say that he is only in the late stage of foundation building, yet he can take out so many demon cores, and the evil spirit emanating from his body is also very thick and terrifying, it really doesn’t make sense.” Pavilion Master Zhao’s face changed slightly.

“With my level of cultivation and eyesight, unless he is a Nascent Soul cultivator and has used special methods to hide his level of cultivation, he will definitely not escape my detection when he casts a spell.” Elder Jin said solemnly.

"What? Could it be that senior brother thinks he is a Nascent Soul cultivator? This is impossible. Nascent Soul cultivators are such powerful figures. If he is a Nascent Soul cultivator, why would he need to hide his cultivation level and pretend to be a late Foundation Establishment cultivator for the sake of these two magic weapons? Isn't this a waste of time?" Pavilion Master Zhao's face changed drastically this time. Although he said it was impossible, a little cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

"This is exactly what I am puzzled about. If he is only in the late stage of foundation building, how can we explain the Qizhong and Shusi demon cores? Any of those two high-level level 4 demon beasts would be difficult to hunt even for a Yuanying cultivator, let alone taking them out all at once? And there is no way to explain the evil spirit that he inadvertently exuded just now!"

Elder Jin said, looking thoughtfully at Pavilion Master Zhao, whose forehead was covered with sweat, and continued: "Even if this person is really only in the late stage of foundation building, he can produce so many demon cores, and there is most likely a Nascent Soul cultivator standing behind him.

Our Lingyun Sect is not a big sect like Tianji Sect. If we really offend a Nascent Soul cultivator, it will be a big trouble. In the future, when you open a business, you should focus on business and stop thinking about those crooked things. Otherwise, if you really get into big trouble, not only you, but even I can't afford it."

"Brother, you are right!" Pavilion Master Zhao felt a chill in his heart and bowed slightly.

Xia Daoming naturally didn't know about the thoughts and conversations between Pavilion Master Zhao and Elder Jin. After leaving Lingyun Treasure Pavilion, he went to Baiqixuan.

The background of Baiqixuan is even inferior to that of Lingyun Sect. The master behind it is a family of immortal cultivators with only a few Jindan cultivators.

This immortal cultivation family has a wide range of knowledge in weapon refining and knows some ancient methods of forging magical weapons.

Five years ago, Xia Daoming commissioned Baiqixuan to reforge a Black Tiger Sword, a Black Dragon Spear and a shield.

It’s just that the materials are much more advanced than before. Some of them were found or hunted by Xia Daoming in the ancient ruins of Nieyan. For example, the spiral turtle shield is made of the shell of the red flame spiral turtle. The thousand flame black gold used to make the black tiger sword was found by him in a magma pit in the restricted area. There are also many precious materials that he purchased at high prices.

After coming out of Baiqixuan, Xia Daoming did not stay in Lingyue Market, but chose to leave the market directly.

After leaving the no-fly zone, Xia Daoming released the Golden Winged Peng from his spirit beast bag.

Jin Lingpeng spread his wings and flew high, carrying Xia Daoming into the sky, flying towards the direction of the Great Yan Kingdom in the Great Xuan Realm.

Jin Lingpeng was very fast. In a moment, Xia Daoming put away his cloak and looked back towards Lingyue Market. Lingyue Market and the mountain where it was located had become a small black dot.

"It seems that Lingyun Treasure Pavilion and Baiqixuan are both sensible and have no bad intentions." Xia Daoming breathed a sigh of relief, but was inexplicably a little disappointed.

Half a day later, Xia Daoming arrived at Jiujiao River.

After letting Jin Lingpeng take a short rest on a hilltop beside the Jiujiao River, Xia Daoming drove Jin Lingpeng on his journey again.

Jin Lingpeng had just flapped its wings and taken off, but before it flew over Jiujiao River, the sharp-eyed Xia Daoming saw a flying boat coming towards him from afar.

On the flying boat, three people were standing facing the wind.

One man and two women.

The man was tall and handsome, standing proudly at the bow of the boat, his long hair and sleeves fluttering in the wind. On his left and right stood a woman with extraordinary temperament and appearance, both of whom were indescribably high-spirited. It was none other than Shen Xulong of the Changhe Sect, with whom he had clashed in the ancient ruins of Nieyan.

However, twelve years have passed now, and Shen Xulong, who had completed his foundation building that year, has successfully formed a golden elixir and become the Jindan elder of the Changhe Sect.

There were two women standing side by side with Shen Xulong. One of them looked somewhat familiar to Xia Daoming. After careful recollection, he remembered that she was a disciple of the Seven Killing Sect of the Great Yan Kingdom who had entered the ancient ruins of Nirvana with him. Now she was already an early Jindan cultivator.

Xia Daoming had no impression of the other woman, a tall one with a snake-like face, but her cultivation was also at the early stage of Golden Core.

"What a coincidence!" Xia Daoming's eyes flashed with surprise. He gently patted Jin Lingpeng's head and said softly, "Xiao Jin, avoid the three people in front."

Xia Daoming didn't want to cause trouble, nor did he want to argue with someone like Shen Xulong. He was letting Jin Lingpeng avoid the three people. The female disciple of the Seven Killings Sect was already pointing at Jin Lingpeng and said, "The feathers of that golden-winged eagle are shining with golden light, and there is not even a single stray hair. It looks so majestic." "Since Miss Gao thinks the golden-winged eagle is majestic, why don't we go over and use it to get around? Wouldn't it be easier than driving our flying boat?" Shen Xulong said without hesitation.

He had just been promoted to a Jindan cultivator a few years ago, and became the Jindan elder of the sect. He was full of energy and vigor. Now three of them were traveling together. How could he take a cultivator riding a golden-winged eagle seriously?
"That's a good idea." The female disciple of the Seven Killing Sect immediately agreed and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

As he was speaking, the flying boat was already moving rapidly sideways in the air, trying to block the golden-winged eagle's path.

The woman with the snake-like face raised her lips into a smile of anticipation when she saw this, and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

That’s right. They are the Jindan ancestors, and there are three of them. What’s the big deal about asking for a golden-winged eagle? At most, they can just give some spirit stones. Do they dare to refuse?

Seeing that he did not provoke Shen Xulong, but Shen Xulong came to him on his own initiative, Xia Daoming could not help but frown and patted Jin Lingpeng's head lightly.

Golden whirlpools suddenly appeared on Jin Lingpeng's wings, stirring up air currents and causing his body to hover in the air.

"This is not an ordinary Golden Winged Eagle, this is a Golden Winged Eagle that has stimulated its bloodline and has been promoted to a higher level!" The woman from the Seven Killing Sect saw from afar the huge body of Jin Lingpeng hovering steadily in the air, and couldn't help but show a look of surprise and joy on her face.

"Level three, advanced order!" The snake-faced woman was very sensitive and blurted out the answer. Her expression changed slightly and a hint of solemnity appeared in her eyes.

A cultivator who can ride a third-level high-level spiritual bird usually has some background and is not a simple person.

"It's you!" When the woman with the snake-like face became alert, Shen Xulong finally saw Xia Daoming on the Golden Lingpeng clearly.

"Brother Shen, do you know this person?" asked the woman with the snake face.

"Haha, how could I not know this person? He is the third-generation disciple of the Qingyuan Sect of our Daliang Kingdom. He also entered the ancient ruins of Nieyan with us last time. Miss Gao should have some impression of him." As Shen Xulong spoke, a playful sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"So you are a disciple of Qingyuan Sect. I do have some impression of you. It's a pity that we didn't meet in the ancient ruins then." Miss Gao from Qisha Sect also had a teasing sneer on her lips, and her eyes narrowed as she looked at Xia Daoming, with a sharp light in them, as if she was looking at a prey that had nowhere to escape.

"Oh, so you are a disciple of Qingyuan Sect! Brother Shen, I heard that the three major sects in your Daliang Kingdom have always advanced and retreated together. This makes me a little embarrassed." When the snake-faced woman heard that Xia Daoming was a disciple of Qingyuan Sect, her heart was relieved all of a sudden. Her eyes narrowed with a hint of coldness.

"Shen Xulong, what do you mean by stopping me like this?" Xia Daoming did not seem to realize that the two women had murderous intentions towards him. Instead, he looked at Shen Xulong and frowned slightly.

"How dare you! Did you also call me Shen Xulong's name? If you had called me senior respectfully, perhaps I would have considered that you are a junior disciple of one of the three major sects in Daliang Kingdom and asked the two fairies from the Seven Killing Sect and the Black Evil Palace to show mercy and spare your life." Shen Xulong shouted arrogantly with his hands behind his back.

"Is she from the Black Evil Palace?" Xia Daoming looked at the woman with the snake-like face and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"That's right. The Seven Killing Sect and the Black Evil Palace have always been at odds with your Qingyuan Sect. It's really bad luck that you met them alone today. Fortunately, I am here. As long as you honestly give the spirit bird a blood order and let it serve Elder Gao as its master in the future, and you also need to respectfully bow to me three times, I will put aside the past grudges and help you." Shen Xulong had a smug look on his face, and looked at Xia Daoming like a cat playing with a mouse.

"Shen Xulong, don't you think about it? If I hadn't saved you back then, would you have achieved the Golden Core realm today? If I were you, I would have come to thank you long ago. But you, even teamed up with outsiders to bully me, your savior. Well, I don't need to care about an ungrateful person like you anymore!" Xia Daoming said coldly.

"Haha! You dare to talk nonsense even when you are about to die. Do you think you still have Li Tinghui and others to protect you like you did in the past?" Shen Xulong laughed in anger.

"Brother Shen, since we are going to kill this man anyway, why waste time talking? It's a pity to waste such a lively and spiritual bird." The woman surnamed Gao sneered with disdain.

"Kill me?" Xia Daoming raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

"You are just a cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage. Killing you is like killing a chicken or a duck!" The woman with the snake-like face sneered, raised her hand, and a colorful ribbon flew out of her hand.

As soon as the ribbon flew out, it turned into a ferocious colorful python with its bloody mouth opened and fangs exposed, and it bit towards Xia Daoming.

Seeing the snake-faced man take action, Shen Xulong and the woman surnamed Gao narrowed their eyes and watched with their hands behind their backs.

"You are a Jindan cultivator after all, and you don't even have a magic weapon, yet you have the nerve to speak so arrogantly!" Xia Daoming smiled coldly upon seeing this, and raised his hand. The Green Dragon Sword broke through the air, transformed into a nimble green dragon, and killed towards the colorful python.

The green dragon is so agile and seems to be real, it cannot be compared with the seven-colored python.
