Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 47 The Assaulting Cultivators (Please continue reading)

For a moment, all the cultivators present looked at Lao Yu.

Old Yu sighed.

He looked regretful.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, let's just forget about it!"

"this!"

Baldy Chen looked resentful.

Shen Xuan moved his lips slightly, transmitting his voice to Wen Zijian.

Wen Zijian nodded silently, indicating that he understood.

"let's go!"

The airship then descended to a lower altitude, skimming close to the waters of the Longze River.

Amidst the puzzled looks of the crowd, Shen Xuan flicked his sleeve.

The river water churned and exploded, creating huge waves before finally coalescing.

Propelled by a towering wave, the airship suddenly accelerated, speeding away at an incredible pace.

It's 20% faster than a typical flying boat!

"This speed!"

Old Yu, Old Wei, Baldy Chen, and other demon hunters were all dumbfounded.

Their airships simply couldn't catch up!

"Fellow Daoist Chen, don't be ungrateful!"

"I saved your lives!"

"If a real fight breaks out, your whole team wouldn't be a match for that Master Shen!"

"Don't they even use their brains? How did they manage to hunt down the water-repelling rhinoceros?"

Old Yu tossed out a few words, waved his hand, and without turning his head, directed the airship to return to port.

The move Shen Xuan just made.

It demonstrated a powerful control over water elemental energy.

His strength was so great that even Lao Yu, who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, felt a chill run down his spine.

"This Master Shen has mastered water magic?"

……

Wen Zijian steered the flying boat, traveling swiftly along the Longze River.

Half an hour later, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, Fellow Daoist Xia, don't stand idly by, let's work together to deal with this Water-Repelling Rhinoceros!"

With the Tie brothers absent, the three of them were much slower at doing this chores.

Shen Xuan looked at the water-splitting rhinoceros horn, feeling a sense of unease.

"Fellow Daoists, the horn of the Water-Repelling Rhinoceros is quite beneficial to my cultivation. Would you be willing to give it to me?"

"no problem!"

Zhao Chunsheng deftly cut off the water-repelling rhinoceros horn and handed it to Shen Xuan.

Shen Xuan did not accept the offer immediately, but instead looked at Wen Zijian and Shi Xiangdong.

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Zhao is the captain. He is in charge of distributing the spoils of war. He is always fair, so we have no objections."

"I have no opinion."

Shi Xiangdong and Wen Zijian made statements one after another.

Shen Xuan then accepted the water-repelling rhinoceros horn.

As soon as you receive it, you can feel the waves of water magic and profound meaning within the water-repelling rhinoceros horn, which captivates your mind and spirit.

Shen Xuan took out an empty jade box, put the water-repelling rhinoceros horn into it, and then put it into his storage bag.

This is a real treasure!

The water-repelling rhinoceros's ability to repel water must be manifested through its horns.

There are also many valuable materials.

Cowhide, bones, and tendons are all sought-after and high-quality raw materials for crafting weapons.

However, the most valuable part is the rhinoceros meat.

The beef weighs 2,000 jin (approximately 1,000 kg), and after removing bones and internal organs, the net weight of the beef is as high as 1,200 jin (approximately 600 kg)!

"One pound of meat costs six spirit stones. This amount of rhinoceros meat alone can sell for seven thousand two hundred spirit stones!"

Zhao Chunsheng was full of energy, and the top-grade magic weapon, the Fire Phoenix Knife, became a butcher's knife.

"Adding the intact cowhide, as well as the cow tendons and bones, it should fetch around ten thousand spirit stones."

Even Wen Zijian, who is usually serious and rarely smiles, showed a smile on his face.

This was a very fruitful day!

"The rhinoceros horn and rhinoceros blood should be included and deducted from my share," Shen Xuan reminded him.

"Don't worry! I, Zhao Chunsheng, may have mediocre skills in other areas, but my arithmetic is top-notch!"

"That's right, buying low and selling high is your specialty!" Xia Muqing teased, a rare occurrence for her.

Shi Xiangdong reminded everyone, "Please be careful. We are traveling along the river and have taken some detours."

"Fellow Daoist Shi is right. The fact that demon hunters dare not make a move does not mean that no one has evil intentions."

Zhao Chunsheng packed all the rhinoceros meat into several prepared animal bags, tied them to the flying boat, and secured them with a tight knot.

Storage bags have limited space.

The storage bags provided to Qi Refining cultivators are usually only two or three cubic meters in size and are used to store various valuables, making them unsuitable for storing demon beast meat. Shen Xuan specially prepared a new storage bag to store demon beast blood.

He asked, "Will we encounter cultivators who have undergone tribulations?"

"Definitely!" Zhao Chunsheng said decisively.

"Many demon hunters secretly collude with cultivators who have undergone tribulations. They can even change their identities at any time."

"Master Shen has only been in this profession for a short time, but he will understand in time. In the wild, you can't trust anyone except your teammates!"

"Neither family members nor sect cultivators are trustworthy!"

Shen Xuan nodded: "I have learned a lot!"

These are all invaluable words of advice.

Experience gained through countless tears and wounds.

"Wait, if we see any bandits blocking our way, everyone, don't hold back!"

"Master Shen, what are your plans?"

It was Shen Xuan's idea to travel along the river.

Shen Xuan's teammates also understood that his water magic was much more powerful on the Longze River.

"Does the cultivator have any good stuff on him? I've heard before that murder and arson bring wealth, and killing a cultivator can make you rich overnight."

Shi Xiangdong looked speechless.

Xia Muqing explained, "Those who undergo tribulation are all a bunch of poor bastards! The poorer they are, the less afraid they are of death! There's no need to fight them to the death!"

"We have prey worth tens of thousands of spirit stones on our airship. Returning safely is our top priority!"

Shen Xuan smiled apologetically.

Sure enough, novels are all lies.

They're so poor they're resorting to robbery, and you still want to rob them in return?

"Then let's force our way in!"

"If any cultivators try to block our way, I will place the Water Cloud Shield in front of the flying boat, and we should be safe."

The airship has a certain degree of defensive capability.

But not much.

If the opponent's attack is strong enough, it can easily damage the airship, forcing it to slow down and make an emergency landing.

“Okay!” Zhao Chunsheng immediately agreed.

As for the Water Cloud Shield, it was only a mid-grade defensive magic weapon, and he didn't even think about whether it could withstand the attack of the Calamity Cultivator.

In his eyes, Shen Xuan's strength was comparable to that of a Qi Refining Perfection cultivator.

Even an ordinary mid-grade defensive magic weapon can unleash tremendous power.

The Water-Splitting Emei Dagger in his hand was also an ordinary mid-grade magic weapon, capable of instantly killing the Water-Splitting Rhinoceros!

……

really.

Ten days later.

Ahead, on the surface of the Longze River, smoke swirled, and faint fluctuations of spiritual energy could be heard.

Soon after, three flying boats carrying thieves appeared.

It was all painted black, making it suitable for nighttime operations.

On the flying boat, even the banners of the raiders were hung.

Shen Xuan looked completely bewildered.

A few days ago, Xia Muqing told him that all the cultivators who had been robbed were poor.

Could a poor wretch afford three flying boats?

"They stole the flying boat! Only the flying boat and the magic weapon are worth a few spirit stones!" Xia Muqing explained.

"We were lucky. We encountered the most famous and strongest group of cultivators in the vicinity."

Black Wind Thief!
This is the name of this group of robber cultivators.

It is said that there are more than twenty people, and no fewer than ten of them are in the late stage of Qi Refining.

The leader, Black Wind, is a Qi Refining Perfection cultivator with a Metal element and is a swordsman!

Zhao Chunsheng asked in a low voice, somewhat uneasy, "Can a sword cultivator at the peak of Qi Refining withstand the Water Cloud Shield?"

"We can hold on!" Shen Xuan said firmly.

"If things get too tough, I'm here for you! Just keep the airship charging forward!"

Turning back is impossible.

Perhaps even more cultivators are chasing after us.

Prey worth tens of thousands of spirit stones!
That's enough for these cultivators to fight desperately!

"Fellow Daoist Wen, take a rest first. I will use the giant wave to propel us forward at an accelerated pace."

"it is good!"

A dozen or so breaths later.

On the Longze River.

Water exploded.

The giant waves roared and thundered.

The flying boat suddenly accelerated, stirring up countless waves, and rushed towards the gap between the three flying boats of the traitors like an arrow released from a bow.

"How dare you!" a furious shout rang out.
