My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 2 Giant Wild Boar
A scream shattered the silence of the forest, and an ominous premonition filled the air.

"What's going on? Who wants to kill me?!"

Shen Changchuan suddenly woke up with a start, and the hairs on his body stood on end.

His muscles tensed up at that moment, his body crouched slightly, and his mind was on high alert, ready to jump out of the car and escape at any time!

at the same time,

Two golden needles, each about an inch long and as thick as a little finger, appeared in his palm.

Although these two golden needles were not of the level of magical artifacts when they were forged, they have a certain degree of magical power conduction due to the incorporation of gold essence. For cultivators, they are far superior to weapons made of refined steel or similar materials used by mortals.

Shen Changchuan wielded the most lethal method he possessed.

His eyes were fixed on the front.

Stay alert and be prepared to fight or flee at any time.

at this time,

Boom!

A loud roar came from ahead, followed by a visible tremor in the ground, as if some enormous creature was violently surging forward.

Immediately afterwards, the once dense forest seemed to be split in two by an unstoppable force. The tall trees were so fragile in the face of this force, creaking and groaning as they were mercilessly crushed and fell to both sides!

A massive shadow burst forth from the forest, its ferocious, beastly aura almost overwhelming, accompanied by a fierce wind that swept in all directions, filling everyone with a terrifying fear!

It was a huge, tusked wild boar.

It stands three or four meters tall, its massive, bloated body almost like a wriggling hill, its muscles bulging, and its skin a dark, hard texture, as if it were wearing a thick layer of armor, covered with hair that stands up like steel needles.

At this moment, the tusked boar's huge head was flashing with ferocity in its eyes. Two long, sharp tusks extended from its mouth, piercing through the belly of a human figure and lifting him high onto the tusks.

The unfortunate fellow who was clearing the way was attacked and had already been disemboweled; it was clear he wouldn't survive.

Crimson blood flowed from its body, staining not only its gleaming tusks but also its nose and head, making its ferocious head even more menacing.
They looked like blood-stained demons that had come straight out of hell!

Right now,

The other ordinary people were terrified by the ferocity of the giant wild boar, and their hands and feet went weak and they trembled.

The horses and other animals in the procession were so frightened by the menacing aura that they retreated in panic.

Meanwhile, the ordinary warrior guards patrolling on both sides of the team, though also fearful, remained dutiful and quickly came up from the rear with their weapons in hand.

The others were terrified.
But Shen Changchuan felt a slight sense of relief.

"Thankfully, it wasn't them sending people to intercept and kill us."

"That's true. I've kept a low profile in the Shen family for the past two years and haven't made any enemies. Now I've even taken the initiative to stay away from the center of the vortex and go to a remote place. No matter how fiercely they fight, they don't have to make trouble for a nobody like me."

Shen Changchuan's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally able to relax a little.

At this time,

"You beast! You're asking for death!"

Beside Shen Changchuan's carriage, his maternal grandfather, Han Qinhu, saw the giant wild boar burst out of the forest and immediately roared angrily.

His eyes widened, and his voice boomed like thunder!

Instantly, he leaped off his horse, still in mid-air, and drew the decapitation sword from his back, slashing down with a single blow!

The sharp blade illuminated the forest, drawing a crescent-shaped arc through the air. The brilliant blade also stirred up a fierce wind, and with a massive force capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks, it slashed heavily down towards the head of the giant wild boar!

A sharp whistling sound filled the air—the sharp sound of a blade tearing through the air at incredible speed!

Han Qinhu's slash was fierce and domineering. The power it contained was so terrifying that even a block of iron cast in front of him would be cleaved in two with a single blow!

But at this time,
The giant wild boar also sensed the attack from above. With a nimble flick of its ferocious head, it flung away the unfortunate creature hanging from its tusks.

Almost at the same moment,

The decapitation blade fell, its edge striking the giant boar's long, blood-red tusks!
when!
A crisp, metallic clang rang out, and a gust of air rippled outwards from the point of impact.

A violent tremor came from the blade, causing Han Qinhu's hands, which were gripping the knife, to go numb.

The strike, powerful enough to cut through steel with the aid of innate true energy, had no effect whatsoever; all its power was blocked by the giant boar's tusks.

Han Qinhu's pupils suddenly contracted sharply.
"What a beast! Be careful, this thing is a monster!"

He yelled a warning.

Monsters

That is a being that has awakened demonic power and possesses extraordinary abilities!
It's almost equivalent to the power of a cultivator!

The fact that Han Qinhu's full-force strike was deflected, to the point that his arm went numb from the rebound, is clear proof of this!

But at this time,
Han Qinhu, however, advanced instead of retreating, shifting his figure to avoid the sharpness of the wild boar's tusks, and in the blink of an eye, he had flashed to a distance of about ten feet away.
At the same time, the battle blade in his hand transformed into a bolt of lightning, tearing through the air as he struck again, slashing fiercely at the opponent's thick neck from a different angle!

"Triple Waves!"

Faced with such a formidable enemy, Han Qinhu used the ultimate skill he had used when he roamed the martial arts world!

In an instant,
He unleashed three lightning-fast strikes. The speed was astounding...

It was almost as if three swords overlapped and were slashed out at the same time, precisely striking the giant wild boar's neck.

laugh!
Han Qinhu's blade struck the tough, thick wild boar hide.

however,
The giant boar's hide was incredibly protective.
The blade only managed to cut a small gash in the tough, thick pigskin, leaving a thin line of blood!

The all-out attack only resulted in a small cut.

This made Han Qinhu gasp in surprise.

Those long tusks are one thing, but how come the wild boar hide is so tough?!
at this time,

The pain from the wound on its neck enraged the giant boar, its eyes turning bloodshot, and its two heavy hooves slammed into the ground with tremendous force.

boom!
In an instant, the ground sank into a bowl-sized pit, as if made of tofu, and at the same time, a demonic aura erupted, sweeping and impacting in all directions.

When Han Qinhu was hit by that demonic energy, it was as if he had been struck hard by a giant iron hammer. He groaned and was thrown several feet away like a rag doll, falling to the ground with bright red blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

With a single blow, Han Qinhu was sent flying, and the giant wild boar pressed its advantage.

It pawed the ground a few times with its front hooves, then lowered its massive body, bent its limbs and hooves to gather strength, and aimed its blood-stained fangs at Han Qinhu, who had been thrown into the air not far away, in a posture of preparing to charge, to smash the two-legged beast that had injured it into mincemeat!

Such a terrifying giant wild boar, once it charges, Han Qinhu's fate would likely be certain death!

behind the crowd,

Shen Changchuan's expression changed, and he prepared to make a move.

He swiftly formed hand seals with the golden needles in his hand, channeling his magical power into the two needles. Under the stimulation of the magical power, the golden needles glowed with a pale golden light.

But at this moment,
"father!"

Another angry roar followed.
Han Dayong, the eldest uncle from the other side, has also arrived!

In fact, as soon as Han Qinhu leaped up and swung his broadsword at the giant wild boar, Han Dayong had already raised his menacing spiked club and charged forward as well.

However, Han Qinhu was quick to engage and quick to retreat. By the time Han Dayong arrived, he had already been sent flying.

However, it was precisely because of this that Han Dayong arrived at the perfect time to interrupt the giant wild boar's charge!
Han Dayong gripped a massive spiked club with both hands and brought it down from the other side, striking the giant wild boar on the head just as it was about to charge.

boom!
Another heavy blow.
The giant wild boar's head was slammed into the ground with tremendous force, cracking the ground and causing it to tremble.

Meanwhile, under the heavy blows of the spiked club, his head was pierced with bloody holes by the sharp spikes.

Roar! ! !
The repeated attacks only enraged the giant wild boar further.

Its head suddenly snapped and slammed, the immense and irresistible force sending Han Dayong flying once again!
The giant wild boar raised its head and roared.

An aura of malevolence swept across the entire area.

The Han family's martial arts guards, who had already come to their aid, weapons pointed at them, and surrounded them, were all forced to retreat by the murderous aura.

However, it is obvious that

The attack by Han Qinhu and his son ultimately had some impact on the giant wild boar.

Especially Han Dayong's powerful and heavy blow,
This made his head feel dizzy and he felt somewhat uncomfortable moving around with his head held high.

Also at this moment.

Behind the group, a glint of light flashed in Shen Changchuan's eyes as he sat in the carriage.

"good chance!"

Shen Changchuan, who was prepared, suddenly pointed towards the giant wild boar, and the golden needles in his palm, which had been activated by magic and were brewing with great power, shot out in an instant!

call out!
A tiny flash of golden lightning seemed to streak across the air.

All anyone saw was a fleeting glimpse of the remaining golden light.

then,

Boom! !
The giant wild boar's eyes exploded, and blood and foam splattered everywhere!
His originally scarlet, crazed pupils instantly exploded into two bloody holes!

But this isn't the end!

Two golden needles, each as thick as a little finger, possessed a terrifying power no less than that of a sniper bullet, powered by magic. They pierced through the skull along the eye sockets, turning the giant boar's head into a complete mess.

The giant wild boar's massive body tensed up, then it slowly collapsed to the ground with a rumbling sound, kicking up a cloud of dust.

call!
Seeing the giant wild boar die completely, the battle situation reversed in the blink of an eye. Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, but they were also stunned and unable to come back to their senses for a moment.

"Alright, hurry up and get ready, let's get going as soon as possible."

Shen Changchuan flicked his sleeve and addressed the group of martial arts guards who were stunned in place due to their fluctuating emotions.

Although these people did not play any role in the battle.
But with their strength not even at the Innate level, rushing up would most likely just be suicide. If they could just surround him and protect him from behind, providing some cover for his escape in case of an emergency, that would be enough.

Shen Changchuan was not harsh on this.
