Cultivating Immortality: Beginning with Blessings from the Immortals

The next moment, the crimson sword energy collided violently with the shield.

Cracks instantly appeared on the two shields in front of Chen Yi, and his body was sent flying backward.

"What!?" Chen Yi was secretly shocked and immediately put his cloak in front of him.

He immediately activated the cyan robe hidden within the cloak. The cyan robe instantly emitted a radiant glow, forming a giant cyan-scaled python that once again protected him.

At that moment, both shields shattered and vanished into nothingness.

The remaining sword energy slammed into the Azure Scale Python's shield again, blasting Chen Yi away. His body flew backward like an arrow, crashing through several trees dozens of meters before coming to a stop.

"Cough cough cough, pfft!" Chen Yi coughed violently a few times and immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

He felt a sharp pain in his chest and abdomen. Looking down, he saw a deep wound on his chest, with blood still seeping into his flesh.

Chen Yi felt a chill run down his spine and immediately swallowed the healing pills.

However, the stench of blood at the wound was extremely peculiar and could not be removed by ordinary means. Chen Yi immediately used the Crimson Blood Spirit Burst Technique, and the blood from the wound transformed into flames that rose up.

The flames and the stench of blood attacked each other, gradually suppressing the stench of blood.

Chen Yi groaned in pain as the flames spread to his wounds. But to eliminate the smell of blood, he could only endure the burning pain.

At this moment, Sun Huo, Wu Yifeng, and others continued their battle with Gu Xinghan and his group.

However, Chen Yi killed one Foundation Establishment stage evil cultivator and seriously injured another, so the balance between the two sides had already been broken.

Under Gu Xinghan's leadership, the remaining evil cultivators' Black Cloud Formation was riddled with flaws and was repeatedly broken by the formations of Sun Huo, Wu Yifeng, and others.

"Damn it, if it weren't for that kid..." A cold glint flashed in Gu Xinghan's eyes.

If Chen Yi hadn't intervened, even with Sun Huo and the others, they might not have failed.

Now that things have come to this, he has no choice but to lead the remaining evil cultivators to withdraw immediately.

Wu Yifeng flashed to Chen Yi's side, and upon seeing that he was injured, immediately took out a pill and gave it to him.

"Junior brother, are you alright?" Wu Yifeng asked with concern.

Chen Yi shook his head slightly. With the flames of the Crimson Blood Spirit Burst Technique, he completely dissolved the bloody aura. However, his internal organs and meridians had suffered severe damage, and it wouldn't be so easy for him to recover.

Sun Huo, Zi Yan, and the others also came over.

Ruan Yiqiu and her group of Tianling Sect disciples came before them and immediately thanked them for their help.

"Senior Sister Zi, Senior Brother Wu, thank you so much for your help. Otherwise, we might have been in trouble today..." Ruan Yiqiu said sincerely.

Zi Yan nodded emphatically and replied:

"This is also thanks to the help of fellow Daoists; otherwise, we would not have been able to defeat these evil cultivators."

Ruan Yiqiu faced the crowd and bowed with clasped hands. She secretly sized up Chen Yi, then took out a porcelain bottle from her bosom and handed it to him.

"Fellow Daoist, this is a specially made healing pill from the Heavenly Spirit Sect. It has a remarkable effect on recovering from injuries," Ruan Yiqiu said with a smile.

Chen Yi nodded slightly, took the porcelain bottle, and handed over two pills.

Ruan Yiqiu, Zi Yan, and Wu Yifeng knew each other; all three were disciples of Golden Core stage elders.

Wu Yifeng introduced Chen Yi, Mu Yuanrong, and Sun Huo to Ruan Yiqiu and the others.

"Gentlemen, this is not a place to stay any longer."

"These evil cultivators probably won't let this go easily. We should leave this place as soon as possible," Chen Yi said.

Upon hearing this, Sun Huo, Ruan Yiqiu, and the others immediately took action, each piloting their flying magical artifacts and rushing forward.

The group dared not linger until dusk.

Chen Yi remained seated on the flying artifact, meditating and regulating his breathing to neutralize the effects of the medicine. His injuries had temporarily stabilized, but the damage to his internal organs and meridians still required recuperation.

Wu Yifeng was very concerned about Chen Yi's injuries and secretly handed him two lotus seeds.

"Junior brother, these are lotus seeds from the thousand-year-old white jade lotus. They have a remarkable effect on treating internal injuries," Wu Yifeng said in a low voice.

Chen Yi was about to refuse, but Wu Yifeng forcefully shoved the lotus seeds into his hand. Unable to refuse, he had no choice but to say:

"Thank you, senior brother. I'll heal my injuries first."

He swallowed the lotus seeds of the white jade lotus, and a burst of cool spiritual energy suddenly erupted, flowing into his internal organs and meridians along with his body fluids.

The pain in my internal organs and meridians was relieved instantly, and a tingling sensation came from the wounds in my chest and abdomen.

Chen Yi was secretly shocked. The lotus seeds of the Thousand-Year White Jade Lotus must be extraordinary, as they had such effects immediately after being consumed.

He immediately began to meditate and regulate his breathing to dissolve the essence of the white jade lotus seeds.

Wu Yifeng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Chen Yi's complexion had improved.

At this moment, Sun Huoziyan and the others are talking with Ruan Yiqiu and the others.

Ruan Yiqiu also told Sun Huo and the others the whole story.

It turned out that their purpose in coming here was to find a second-tier demonic beast in the lake, the Azure Scaled Flood Dragon.

Ruan Yiqiu and the others had been plotting for many days, luring the Azure Scaled Flood Dragon ashore. After nearly half a day of fierce fighting, they finally captured it, but suddenly, evil cultivators launched a sneak attack on them.

Their battle with the Azure Scaled Flood Dragon had already depleted their spiritual energy and physical strength, and now, having been ambushed by the evil cultivators, they were trapped in the formation.

If it weren't for Chen Yi and the others taking action, they probably would have been captured alive.

"Everyone, we plan to rest for one night and then return to the Heavenly Spirit Sect in the early morning."

"I will report this matter to the sect and will certainly seek some sect rewards for you," Ruan Yiqiu said.

Zi Yan smiled gently and said:

"Junior sister, there's no need to be so polite."

"We are all from the same sect. How could we not help you when you are attacked by evil cultivators?"

Ruan Yiqiu smiled and nodded, then looked at Chen Yi, who was meditating beside her, and replied:

"We also need to thank Fellow Daoist Chen. If it weren't for his intervention in killing an evil cultivator, we wouldn't have been able to escape safely."

Wu Yifeng laughed and said:

"That's natural. This is my master's newly accepted disciple, who is proficient in formations and insect control."

A hint of surprise flashed in Ruan Yiqiu's eyes. Both array formations and insect control place great emphasis on talent.

She hadn't expected Chen Yi to be so young yet so accomplished in both areas. The iron fire ant swarm, in particular, gave her a sense of danger.

Soon, night fell.

The group set up camp and began to rest. They had all experienced a major battle and were inevitably somewhat exhausted.

The next day, early in the morning.

Chen Yi slowly opened his eyes and leaped up from the ground.

"Phew, my injuries have mostly healed." He exhaled a breath of stale air; the wounds on his chest and abdomen had already scabbed over.

At this moment, Sun Huo, Wu Yifeng, and disciples of the Tianling Sect are on duty.

As dawn breaks, the entire Wanling Mountain is shrouded in a thin mist.

Upon seeing Chen Yi regain consciousness, Wu Yifeng immediately rushed forward to inquire about his injuries. Chen Yi smiled calmly.

"Senior brother, I owe you a lot this time. Otherwise, my injuries wouldn't have stabilized so quickly."

Wu Yifeng waved his hand and said in a low voice:

"Junior Sister Ruan is the Supreme Elder's personal disciple. You can ask her for a Foundation Establishment Pill to do her a favor."

Chen Yi's eyes lit up. Foundation Establishment Pills were extremely precious, and the more he obtained, the higher his success rate in establishing his foundation.

Just then, a figure gradually walked towards the two of them.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, you've finally woken up."
