Cultivating immortality relies on spatial abilities; defying fate to become the protagonist.

Chapter 128 Wolf Head Tattoo
Suddenly, a deep and eerie black vortex appeared in the eyes of the masked man in the black robe, as if it were about to devour everything around him.

At the same time, wisps of pitch-black gas began to slowly emanate from his body, swirling around him and making him look extremely sinister and terrifying.

"You...who exactly are you?" Gu Shihan asked, her face full of surprise and her voice filled with disbelief. "Judging from your appearance, could you be a demonic cultivator? But this aura...no, you've actually gone mad from your cultivation?!"

Shi Qinghan, standing to the side, stared coldly at the person struggling in the black mist, a slight sneer playing on his lips: "Hmph, with your meager skills, you dare call yourself a Golden Core cultivator? You're utterly trash! Being this weak is bad enough, but I never expected you to stoop so low as to suffer a cultivation deviation. You're truly courting death!"

In the blink of an eye, Gu Shihan and Shi Qinghan both made their moves.

With a flick of his wrist, Gu Shihan's longsword transformed into a streak of cold light, piercing straight towards the chest of the masked man in black robes.

In an instant, the sword tip pierced through the clothes and plunged deep into the opponent's chest. A stream of bright red blood gushed out and splattered in the air, creating a shocking scene.

Shi Qinghan was not to be outdone. His long sword moved as nimbly as a serpent, and with a light flick, he knocked the masked man in black robes off, revealing an unfamiliar face to the two of them.

Gu Shihan raised her sword and brought it down. A flash of cold light appeared, and the masked man in black robes trembled violently before collapsing to the ground, lifeless.

"Little sister, tell me, who exactly wants to kill us? I've racked my brains but I really can't figure out who it could be?"

Shi Qinghan frowned as he spoke, squatting down to carefully examine the deceased, checking for any items on their bodies that could identify them.

Gu Shihan shook her head, looking equally bewildered: "I don't know either. We have no grudges against anyone, so how did we attract such a group of assassins?"

Suddenly, as if she had discovered some important clue, Shi Qinghan shouted, "Little sister, come and look here! These people all have a wolf head tattoo on their arms! But... what does this wolf head tattoo mean?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Shihan looked closely and, just as her brother had said, a black wolf head tattoo was clearly visible on the arms of each of the five black-robed corpses.

The masked man in the black robe also had tattoos, but his tattoos were different from the others. Not only were the wolf heads larger, but they were also not black; instead, they were a strange crimson.

"Could it be that another assassin organization we've never heard of has emerged in this spirit realm?" Shi Qinghan frowned, his eyes fixed on the mysterious and eerie tattoos, muttering to himself.

At this moment, their hearts were filled with doubt and unease. Just as the two were carefully examining the tattoos, a surging vortex of spiritual energy suddenly erupted from the wolf head behind the masked man in black robes.

This powerful force was like a ferocious wolf, opening its blood-red maw and rushing straight towards Gu Shihan and Shi Qinghan.

With two muffled thuds, the two men flew backward several meters away like kites with broken strings.

Their bodies arced through the air, crashing into several large, sturdy trees. With the sound of trees snapping and falling, the two finally crashed heavily to the ground.

Upon landing, both men coughed up blood and turned ashen-faced.

Shi Qinghan endured the excruciating pain and struggled to sit up. He turned to look at Gu Shihan, who was also seriously injured, and asked anxiously, "Little sister, are you... are you alright?" As he spoke, he coughed up another mouthful of blood.

Gu Shihan appeared extremely weak. She struggled to lift her eyelids, glanced at Shi Qinghan's concerned face, and tried to reply but found she lacked the strength to speak. She could only weakly open her mouth and let out a faint groan, indicating that her injuries were severe.

Xingbai, who had been following behind them, rushed over. In its small, exquisite hand, a delicate jade bottle appeared out of nowhere. It quickly opened the bottle cap, poured out two pills that emitted a faint fragrance, and put them into the mouths of Gu Shihan and Shi Qinghan respectively.

After taking the medicine, their complexions improved slightly, but their injuries remained severe.

Xingbai dared not slack off in the slightest. It vigilantly looked around, its bright eyes constantly scanning every corner.

The little creature waved its magic claws, and in an instant, a beam of light shot out from between its claws, streaking through the air at an astonishing speed, instantly forming a transparent barrier around it.

The barrier flashed with spiritual light, tightly protecting the brother and sister within.

Xingbai slowly turned her head, looking at Gu Shihan with concern, and said softly, "Hanhan, this place is fraught with danger, and we shouldn't stay here any longer. I've set up a barrier to protect us temporarily, but it's not a long-term solution. You should go into the space as soon as possible to heal your injuries!"

Gu Shihan nodded slightly, indicating her agreement with Xingbai's suggestion. She focused her mind, and a thought flashed through her mind.

In the blink of an eye, her figure vanished from the spot like a phantom, successfully entering the Moon Bracelet.

As soon as Gu Shihan stepped into the pool, she immediately felt a cool and gentle force enveloping her entire body.

Without the slightest hesitation, she quickly sat down cross-legged, closed her eyes, and adjusted her breathing rhythm.

She activated the cultivation technique she had practiced for a long time, and a faint blue light immediately emanated from her body.

As the exercise was performed, strands of pure energy continuously flowed into her injured meridians and internal organs, methodically repairing the severe wounds on her body.

At the same time, Shi Qinghan followed closely behind and entered the mustard seed space to begin healing.

His injuries were truly severe; every wound was so deep that bone was visible, and blood was gushing out.

Fortunately, the flow of time inside the mustard seed space is three times that of the outside world. In other words, one day outside is equivalent to three days inside the mustard seed space.

In this way, he will have ample time to recuperate and restore his vitality.

The Mustard Seed Space possesses a magical time acceleration function, but it is still far inferior to Gu Shihan's Moon Bracelet.

Now, after several upgrades and countless fortuitous encounters with rare and precious treasures, the Moon Bracelet's quality is getting closer and closer to that of a divine artifact.

Its interior is rich in spiritual energy, and various spiritual herbs and fruits are growing vigorously, providing Gu Shihhan with enough medicinal herbs for alchemy.
