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

Chapter 27 Fear
Boom! ! !
A violent aura swept across the area, and the scarred, burly man unleashed his full power, charging wildly.

Along the way, trees and rocks were continuously shattered.

The ground shook at that moment!
Facing Shen Changchuan, who was charging directly at him, he felt a suffocating sensation!
Peak of the sixth level of Qi Refining!

He was two whole realms higher than him!
The difference in magical power levels, the oppressive feeling brought about by that difference in levels, made Shen Changchuan feel as if he couldn't move his hands and feet for a moment!
Fortunately,

Shen Changchuan quickly broke free from this feeling.

Since consuming and refining the Azure Origin Water Grass, Shen Changchuan's spiritual sense has been greatly enhanced, to the point that he has even opened up the inner vision that only late-stage Qi Refining cultivators can open.

With a strong spirit,

Nature has a higher resistance to the oppression of cultivators at higher levels.

but,

This does not mean that,

Shen Changchuan will then be able to relax.

in contrast,

Right now,

It was arguably the most dangerous battle of his life!
Zhao Hangao was severely wounded, and he killed all the enemies lying in ambush on both sides.

During this process,

Shen Changchuan's series of outbursts have put him in an awkward position where his old strength has been exhausted and new strength has not yet emerged!
But,
The scarred man arrived with the force of a train!

will,
Shen Changchuan forcibly squeezed out the last bit of magic power in his body, and in an instant activated the Lightness Technique. His figure moved away like a ghost, and he successfully avoided the terrifying impact of the scarred and burly man by a hair's breadth.

bang bang bang! ! !
The scarred, burly man was caught off guard and couldn't stop in time.

It crashed directly into Shen Changchuan from behind.
The trees exploded one after another.

Gravel and wood chips scattered everywhere!

The powerful impact landed directly in empty space.

But at this time,
Shen Changchuan showed no sign of joy at successfully teasing his opponent; instead, he was deathly pale.

He staggered and almost knelt down!

He suffered the consequences!

Consuming a large amount of mana in a short period of time
Then, he forcibly squeezed out the power within his body to forcefully cast the spell.

This is extremely damaging to the meridians in the dantian of the body!

"Fortunately, the Azure Aquatic Plants broadened and strengthened my meridians; otherwise, such intense pressure on my meridians would have surely caused them to twist and break!"

Feeling the intense pain emanating from his dantian meridians, Shen Changchuan couldn't help but have this thought flash through his mind.

In other words, the meridians become more resilient after being tempered.
Otherwise this time,
He's in trouble now!

However, in the blink of an eye...

Shen Changchuan did not stand there stunned.

He held a spirit stone in his hand.
They began to absorb the spiritual energy within it through violent means, refining it into their own magical power.

Simultaneously,

The figures jumped several times.

Fall behind and create distance.

At the same time,

The Elephant Mountain Qi Absorption Technique within his body circulated rapidly, refining the absorbed spiritual energy while quickly regulating his breathing to restore his own magical power.

"Damn you brat!"

In just a few breaths,

The scarred, burly man, his face dark, had already returned.

Its body was covered in dust, wood chips, fallen leaves and other debris, making it look rather disheveled.

But even so,

The other party still exerted immense pressure on Shen Changchuan!

After all, he was a peak sixth-level Qi Refining cultivator.

Shen Changchuan had to be cautious.

Fortunately,

After catching his breath, Shen Changchuan had caught his breath.

My mana is about 70% remaining.

Okay,

The situation isn't too bad.

"Wind Blade Technique perfected, Lightness Technique perfected, Golden Thorn Technique perfected, and even a Detective Eye Technique perfected. One can only say, no wonder he comes from a prestigious family!"

"No wonder he dared to go out alone without a protector!"

The scarred, burly man stared coldly at Shen Changchuan, his face extremely gloomy.

He was certainly not one of those rural herbalists who had never seen the world and were just farming in the countryside.

In a sense, his extensive travels have given him far more experience than many other cultivators of the same level.

To be able to live until now,

Naturally, he possesses a keen eye.

From their brief exchange, he had already seen through Shen Changchuan's methods.

Also because of this,

He couldn't help but gasp inwardly.
The look in his eyes as he looked at Shen Changchuan was filled with apprehension.

The spell was completed.

It is already extremely difficult for an ordinary person to master even one skill.

Among dozens of cultivators, perhaps only one possesses a perfect-level spell!

And the kid in front of me was only fifteen or sixteen years old.
At this age,
He actually mastered four techniques?!
When,
Has this perfect spell become so commonplace?!
how did you do that? !

"This is just a minor skill, not worth mentioning. It is only natural that our Shen family, a prominent and wealthy family, has some secret techniques."

"I wonder who you are, and why you have set up an ambush here to make trouble for me?"

Shen Changchuan's eyes flashed.
The voice is authentic.

They also took the opportunity to raise the banner of the Shen family, hoping to extract some relevant information from the other party. To be honest,
He's still completely baffled by this ambush.

Why would Zhao Han Gao betray him?
Which faction do these people belong to?
Was it a power struggle within the Shen family compound that sent people to kill him, or were these people simply robbing cultivators to make a quick buck?
Who exactly is targeting me?
Shen Changchuan was completely unaware of these many questions.

"Hmph! What need is there for a dead man to know so much!"

The scarred, burly man smiled coldly, looking at Shen Changchuan as if he were a dead man.

He then decided not to waste any more words with Shen Changchuan.
He took out a long sword from his storage bag; the blade was icy cold and gleamed with a chilling light.

He gripped his longsword and aimed it at Shen Changchuan.

"Die to me!"

The scarred man shouted and leaped into the air, transforming into a gray afterimage as he stabbed towards Shen Changchuan!
This sword strike was swift and ruthless, as fast as lightning.

The gleam of magical power emanating from the blade of the sword added to its terrifying power!
If this sword strike lands...

Shen Changchuan will almost certainly be cut in two without any surprise!
Fortunately,

After catching his breath, Shen Changchuan's internal energy also stabilized and returned to normal.

The Perfect Lightness Technique was activated almost instantly.

Shen Changchuan's figure instantly became incredibly light.
A footstep and a shot,
His figure moved several feet sideways like a ghost.

That's how they dodged the scarred man's thunderous sword strike!
however,
This time, the scarred man didn't charge headfirst like before, but instead skillfully controlled the power he usually possessed.

I see,

The sword missed its mark.
When one reaches the middle of the journey,
The sword tip reversed,

They immediately charged towards Shen Changchuan!
The shift in power here is quite remarkable, almost as if it were a weighty task handled with ease!
Facing the shimmering, magical energy emanating from the longsword, Shen Changchuan dared not take it head-on and retreated once more.

The scarred man followed closely behind again!

For a time,

Sword shadows flashed throughout the forest like lightning, and powerful magic, guided by the swords' blades, transformed into a sky full of sweeping sword energy.

The surrounding trees and boulders were all cut down and collapsed!

however,
Even the interwoven sword light formed an impenetrable net of swords in the forest.
Yet they still couldn't touch a single hair on Shen Changchuan's head!
But the scarred man showed no anger or ugliness on his face.

Instead, a hint of triumph flashed across his face.

He knew very well that
In the presence of a cultivator who has mastered perfected spells, unless one also possesses spells at a perfect level,
To fight someone using magic is simply courting death!

Only by relying on one's own higher level of skill and strength, getting close enough to engage in close combat, can one unleash their greatest advantage!

That's exactly what the scarred man did!
And the effect,
Just as he had predicted!

Shen Changchuan was forced into a series of retreats.

Before he could even cast a spell, he interrupted him instantly!

They could only charge left and right under his sword energy, completely powerless to fight back!

After exchanging blows for dozens of rounds,

After dodging for so long, Shen Changchuan seemed to stumble a little.

This kid seems unable to maintain his energy and sharpness during this intense dodging!

"Chance!"

The scarred man's eyes lit up.

Immediately,
Another lightning-fast sword flash pierced through, its sword energy sweeping across a vast expanse of trees like a venomous dragon.

Shen Changchuan was forced back once again!

"it's over!"

The half-faced man flipped his palm and took out a bell the size of a fist.

The bell was entirely black, like a miniature version of a large bell in a temple, shrunk by ten or a hundred times.

But beneath the surface, a black mist seemed to be rising, exuding an evil aura.

"what?!"

Shen Changchuan tensed up instantly.

however,
when!
Almost at the same time,

The scarred man channeled his magic into the bell and rang it sharply!
in an instant,
A sharp roar, a piercing sound at an extremely high frequency, swept across all directions, instantly spreading and covering an area of ​​several dozen feet in radius!

Shen Changchuan faced the impact of the bell's sound head-on.
It felt like my head had been hit by a stick, and my ears were ringing!

At that moment, their bodies seemed to be out of control, frozen in place.

"Hehe, this Soul-Capturing Bell of mine is a rare treasure."

"Unless their spiritual sense is as powerful as that of a late-stage Qi Induction cultivator who has opened their inner vision, anyone whose strength is below mine will be immobilized for a short while!"

"Just accept your death!"

The overall situation is decided!

The scarred man carefully put away the Soul-Capturing Bell.

He sneered and then gripped his longsword.
They walked towards Shen Changchuan, who was standing still under the control of the Soul-Capturing Bell.

however,
Just as he was a few feet away from Shen Changchuan,
suddenly,

rustling
Suddenly, vines sprouted from the ground, shooting up like long snakes and wrapping around the scarred, burly man's feet in the blink of an eye.

Several other vines that stretched out from behind also coiled around his hands and arms!
"what?!"

The scarred man suddenly sensed something was wrong.
But before he could think about it further,
Bake, bake, bake!!!
Five crimson fireballs, radiating intense heat, hurtled straight at his head!

"not good!"

In the critical moment, the scarred man also activated the Golden Bell Technique for defense.

However, compared to the Golden Bell Technique of that guy who was at the fourth level of Qi Refining,
Both its thickness and the brightness of its gold sheen far surpass the latter!
But this didn't help much.

Dangdang! ! !
When the fireball struck the scarred man, it exploded.

A scorching storm of fire swept through the area.
The powerful energy shattered the Golden Bell Technique on its body layer by layer!

Until the last two fireballs exploded directly on the scarred man's body, the burst of flames engulfing him completely!
The scarred man was almost charred in that instant!
A five-fold perfect fireball spell.

He was severely injured almost instantly!
The scarred man was also stunned by Shen Changchuan's sudden burst of energy, his mind going blank for a moment.

At that very moment,
The last golden needle in Shen Changchuan's palm shot out like lightning.

It pierced through his head in an instant!
