Cultivating Immortality: I Have a High-Martial World

Chapter 76 Robbing and plundering cultivators? That's called eliminating a scourge for the people! (Bonus chapter, please continue reading)

Before making his move, Lin Chen had been observing for a long time.

After the chaotic battle, there were about twenty corpses of late-stage Qi Refining cultivators lying on the ground.

There are still four people alive on the field.

Among them were two late-stage Qi Refining cultivators, one peak Qi Refining cultivator, and an elder in the mid-stage Foundation Establishment realm.

For Lin Chen, the old man in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage was the only threat.

But the threat is small.

First of all, although Lin Chen's cultivation level is only at the peak of Qi Refining, his martial arts are already close to that of a Great Martial Master!

He possesses a strength of nearly 20,000 jin (approximately 10,000 kg) and a peak running speed of nearly 90 meters per second.

Lin Chen had consulted the ancient books within the sect, and his physical condition was close to that of a body-refining cultivator in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

Secondly, the old man had been fighting for a long time, and at least 50% of his true energy had been consumed, far from his peak condition.

If Lin Chen were to use the Demon-Slaying Flying Knife, he would be 90% certain of killing the old man instantly.

However, just to be on the safe side, Lin Chen decided to put on the Heavenly Demon Armor.

Although he is still some distance from becoming a Grand Martial Master, he has been able to master this suit of armor in a short period of time.

Once he dons the armor, his combat power will directly surpass that of a Grand Martial Master and reach the level of a High-Level Martial General!

A high-level military general whose physical abilities are no weaker than those of a Foundation Establishment cultivator at the peak of Body Refinement.

"We must kill that Foundation Establishment elder first. If things go wrong, immediately activate the engine system inside the battle armor and escape..."

Lin Chen adjusted his breathing; this was the first time he had faced a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

After mentally rehearsing the process, Lin Chen made his move.

Without any hesitation, Lin Chen unleashed a terrifying burst of power approaching that of a Grand Martial Master, coupled with the assistance of the Heavenly Demon Armor, allowing him to leap dozens of feet in one bound.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Chen rushed into the battlefield from a hundred feet away.

In the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, one's divine sense is approximately one hundred feet long.

The old man noticed Lin Chen entering his spiritual sense range immediately.

But he didn't realize it.

Lin Chen's speed is too fast.

The old man had just made a hand seal, and the magic light had just flashed.

High-explosive bullets, each as thick as a thumb, rained down on him.

Not just one bullet, but hundreds.

The E-7 light machine gun equipped on the Sky Demon Armor can fire more than sixty bullets per second.

Each bullet was enough to severely injure a martial artist.

In the first second, the barrage of bullets shattered the old man's protective spell.

The protective true essence was pierced through like a sieve in the second second, and blood flowers burst in the air.

The third second...

The old man in the Foundation Establishment stage barely lasted until the third second.

Before he died, he had been blasted into pieces, leaving no trace of his body.

The only intact part of his face was his upper half, and his eyes still held a look that had shifted from joy to terror.

"Chieftain!"

"A monster! What terrifying monster!"

"Is this a puppet? There's a puppeteer nearby..."

After seeing the pitch-black Heavenly Demon Armor and witnessing the death of the Foundation Establishment Clan Chief before his eyes.

The three remaining Qi Refining cultivators looked terrified and frantically tried to escape.

But why would Lin Chen leave any survivors?

Bullets rained down, and in less than a second, the three Qi Refining cultivators were dead beyond any doubt.

From the moment Lin Chen made his move to the moment he killed the four people, the entire process took no more than ten seconds.

"Hmm? He died so easily? That was a bit too smooth..."

Lin Chen hadn't expected the sneak attack to be so effective.

But he knew he couldn't stay there any longer.

First, they took more than twenty storage bags from the corpse.

Lin Chen then activated the incendiary bomb on the left arm of his armor and began clearing the battlefield.

The intense heat of several thousand degrees Celsius quickly cremated the four bodies, leaving not even ashes.

It took a few minutes to recover and process the ejected cartridge cases.

After doing all this, Lin Chen dared not linger.

He ran several miles in one breath, then took off his armor and put it into the purple jade gourd.

He then flew on his sword for another hundred miles.

On the way, Lin Chen dived into a river to make sure he washed off the smell.

Lin Chen only returned to his original form after hiding in a ravine.

He summoned the Purple Jade Gourd and flew towards Changchun Gate in the southeast direction.

……

Half an hour after Lin Chen fled, more than a dozen rogue cultivators found the site of the previous chaotic battle.

Among them, there are no fewer than three Foundation Establishment stage cultivators.

Looking at the corpses scattered everywhere and the traces of fierce fighting, the leading Foundation Establishment cultivator's lips twitched.

After searching the body thoroughly, his expression turned grim.

"That thing wasn't found; it was stolen by another force... Perhaps the Wu family of Yanlai City?" another Foundation Establishment cultivator whispered.

The leading monk remained silent as he walked to the traces of the burned corpse.

He reached out and grabbed a handful of soil, then gently rubbed it in his hand.

"If it wasn't the Wu family, then old man Wu is probably already dead... Hmph, what a classic case of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!"

"The person who made the move is extremely skilled in fire-based magic, and their strength is no less than that of a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. Is it the Xiao family from Yanlai City?"

Even the leading cultivator was somewhat unsure.

He searched the battlefield for a long time, but could only confirm that the Wu family members had been burned to death by terrifying flames.

Just then, a golden object in the distant grass caught his attention.

This is a shell casing that Lin Chen did not retrieve.

After all, with hundreds of bullets being fired from the machine gun, Lin Chen was in a hurry to retreat, so some oversights were inevitable.

"What is this?"

The leading monk examined the cartridge case carefully but failed to recognize it.

"So be it! This operation has failed... Whether that thing has fallen into the hands of the Xiao family or not, we'll find out when the time comes!"

After saying that, the dozen or so cultivators hurriedly left the place.

……

the other side.

Lin Chen stood on the purple jade gourd, not daring to stop for the rest of the way.

In two hours, they flew nearly seven hundred miles.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief when Changchun Mountain was right in front of him.

"Let's go back to Danfeng first and let our master know we're safe."

The purple jade gourd traveled upwards and soon arrived at Danfeng Peak.

At this moment, Han Jihai was picking medicinal herbs in the field.

Seeing Lin Chen return safely, his eyes lit up with joy, but he still spoke calmly:

"You're back? Earlier than I expected."

Lin Chen chuckled after hearing this and said:

"Master, this is my first time leaving the mountain gate, so naturally I'm quite curious and have lost track of time..."

"Look, I bought you two outfits, they're high-end stuff. See if they fit?"

Seeing the clothes Lin Chen took out, Han Jihai said with relief:

"You're one of the few with a conscience; you remembered to bring your teacher a gift after going out, unlike those other guys..."

At this point, Han Jihai looked around but did not see Cen Wushan.

He sighed and said, "Your second senior brother, he's out punishing evil again, hasn't he?"

"Hmm, he's discovered another group of raiders..."

Lin Chen told his master where his second senior brother had gone.

Han Jihai was already used to it and nodded without saying anything more.

After having a meal at Danfeng, Lin Chen returned to Lin Family Pavilion.

He closed the shop door and hung a wooden sign that read "The shopkeeper is busy and will be closed for the day" at the entrance.

Lin Chen went up to the second floor of the shop and closed the doors and windows.

After doing all this, he took out the storage bag from the nanobag.

"One, two... a total of twenty-four storage bags!"

Lin Chen's eyes gleamed as he eagerly began to tally up his spoils.
