Cultivating Immortality: Beginning with Blessings from the Immortals

Chen Yi did not reply; the Ghostly Butterfly in mid-air had already been strangled by the Golden Cloud Illusion Butterfly.

"That's right, who exactly are you?"

Wei Xueqing sneered, her eyes fixed on the golden cloud butterfly in mid-air, and said in an icy tone:

"You used the insect eggs I left behind to hatch the Golden Cloud Illusion Butterfly, don't you know who I am?"

Chen Yi's pupils dilated, and he immediately realized what was happening.

The Golden Cloud Illusion Butterfly was hatched from insect eggs in the insect-raising bag of the Golden Light Master, and few people are able to recognize the Golden Cloud Illusion Butterfly.

"You are Venerable Jin Guang!!" Chen Yi exclaimed in surprise.

Wei Xueqing sneered a few times and said:

"I didn't expect you to be so skilled at controlling spirit insects at such a young age. I'm thinking of taking you as my apprentice."

Before Chen Yi could speak, Ruan Yiqiu said coldly:

"What is your purpose in coming here? Monks are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of secular dynasties."

"Don't tell me you really want to marry the city lord's son."

Master Jin Guang smiled and said, "I'm willing, what can you do about it?"

Zhao Guizhen sneered, his words brimming with arrogance:

"Why waste words with them? Killing them all will allow me to strengthen my physical body, as this body is rather weak."

As soon as they finished speaking, Zhao Guizhen and Jin Guang Shangren rushed towards Chen Yi and the others.

"Let's go, lure them out first," Chen Yi transmitted to the others.

Deng Liangyu, arm in arm with Chen Yi, quickly retreated, while Ruan Yiqiu, Wu Yifeng, and the others also piloted flying magical artifacts and flew out of the city lord's mansion.

Zhao Guizhen and Jin Guang Shangren would naturally not let the group go.

If Ruan Yiqiu and the others escape, they will surely report to the Tianling Sect, which will then send powerful experts, leaving them no choice but to flee to this place.

Chen Yi immediately released the Azure Spirit Devouring Insects, and the swarm of insects rushed towards Zhao Guizhen and the other person like a cloud of emerald green poison.

"The Azure Spirit Devouring Insect is interesting," said Venerable Golden Light with great interest.

With a wave of her hand, wisps of pink mist shot out from her sleeve and headed straight for the swarm of insects.

Seeing this, Chen Yi formed a hand seal, and one after another, Azure Spirit Devouring Insects exploded, forming a poisonous cloud that enveloped the two of them.

Golden Light Master's pupils shrank; he never expected that the Azure Spirit Devouring Insect could explode.

Taking advantage of this opening, Chen Yi and the others immediately rushed out of the city lord's mansion.

They could not implicate the city lord's mansion and the mortals of Huangyang City, so they had to flee the area first.

Chen Yi looked back, knowing full well that even with the poisonous clouds, he couldn't do anything to the other side.

Moreover, one of them was once a Golden Core cultivator, and the other was very likely to have reached the threshold of the Golden Core stage before his death.

He had a magic escape talisman, but it could only take one more person with him to escape.

Ruan Yiqiu might also have a way to save her life, but the others would be left behind. Chen Yi pondered for a moment and immediately made a decision.

"Everyone, I'm about to unleash a sword formation talisman. Please help me stall for a moment."

"If we try to escape, they might catch up with us. We have no choice but to defeat them in one fell swoop," Chen Yi said in a deep voice.

When facing a formidable enemy, striking them with overwhelming force might yield surprising results.

Ruan Yiqiu came to Chen Yi's side and asked with concern:

"Junior Brother Chen, your spiritual backlash injury hasn't healed yet. Now, activating a talisman treasure beyond your level again will surely cause further damage to your spiritual consciousness..."

Deng Liangyu also showed concern and planned to activate his talisman.

However, Chen Yi refused outright, for no other reason than that the sword formation talisman was the most powerful weapon.

Ruan Yiqiu took out a jade zither from her bosom and urged it to come to Chen Yi's side.

"Junior Brother Chen, let's cast the spell together. I'll use the jade zither to help you stabilize your consciousness."

Chen Yi nodded emphatically and immediately took out the sword formation talisman and began to activate it.

He pricked his finger, squeezed out a little blood and dripped it onto the sword formation talisman. The talisman instantly emitted a dazzling glow.

At this moment, Venerable Jin Guang and Zhao Guizhen rushed out of the poisonous fog and headed straight for Chen Yi and the others.

"You juniors, prepare to die!" Zhao Guizhen roared.

A dazzling black light emanated from his entire body, transforming into a several-meter-long demonic phantom on his back.

This is Zhao Guizhen's Five Visceral Black Fiend Technique. This technique tempers the five internal organs and nourishes the physical body, making it as hard as a magical artifact.

Master Jin Guang released more than a dozen four-winged red lizards from the insect-rearing bag, which attacked Chen Yi and the others from above.

Faced with the attacks from the two possessed demonic cultivators, Wu Yifeng, Deng Liangyu, and the others immediately took action to defend themselves.

Chen Yi and Ruan Yiqiu simultaneously activated the sword formation talisman, and waves of pressure spread out as visible ripples.

At this moment, Chen Yi kept a close eye on the movements of Zhao Guizhen and the others.

He immediately released a swarm of fire ants, distracting himself as he controlled the swarm to attack the two men.

The Golden Light Master looked surprised; she hadn't expected Chen Yi to be able to control second-tier spirit insects.

The four-winged red lizard instantly clashed with the swarm of fire ants, the two sides constantly colliding and biting each other.

Zhao Guizhen sneered, his body shooting through the swarm of insects like a meteor, heading straight for Wu Yifeng and the others.

Wu Yifeng controlled the sword formation, while Zhao Miao and Wu Miao supported him from the side, each using their own spells to block the opponent.

Master Jin Guang bypassed them and headed straight for Chen Yi and Ruan Yiqiu at the rear.

Seeing this, Ruan Yiqiu became distracted and controlled her flying sword to block the Golden Light Master who was rushing over.

The flying sword split into several beams of light, which shot out together.

But the Golden Light Master remained fearless, manipulating the chains to transform into several venomous snakes that attacked the sword light.

"Faster, just a little bit more." Chen Yi's face was ashen as he fully activated the sword formation and talisman.

At this moment, Zhao Guizhen was already fighting against Wu Yifeng and the others, but the latter immediately fell into a disadvantageous position.

Zhao Guizhen's Five Treasures Black Fiend Technique is extremely powerful; with this technique, he was once invincible among those of the same level. Now, Wu Yifeng and the others, whose cultivation levels are lower than Zhao Guizhen's, are naturally no match for him.

After deflecting the sword light with all his might, Jin Guang Shangren headed straight for Chen Yi and his companion.

Chen Yi immediately took action, and the array plate and array flag of the Xuan Guang Geng Jin Array flew out leisurely, landing on the ground in front of the two of them.

In an instant, a protective array slowly rose up.

Now that Chen Yi's divine sense is damaged, he naturally cannot fully activate the Xuan Guang Geng Jin Formation. However, he can make the formation operate on its own, and although its power is weakened, it can still hinder the opponent to some extent.

Jin Guang Shangren was taken aback; she hadn't expected Chen Yi to be able to use formations.

A golden array barrier enveloped the three of them, instantly transforming into dazzling golden light.

The array plate rotated continuously, and beams of golden light materialized into various weapons, heading straight for the Golden Light Master.

When Jin Guang Shangren realized that the formation had not reached the second level, he breathed a sigh of relief.

She activated her magical artifact in an attempt to forcefully break through the barrier, but quickly discovered the power of the Xuan Guang Geng Jin Formation.

The Xuan Guang Geng Jin Formation is a top-tier first-order formation, and Chen Yi used only the finest materials when creating it. Combined with the blessings of the immortals, its power is approaching that of a second-order formation.

The Golden Light Master had only recently taken over this body, and it had already taken a lot of time and spirit stones for him to reach the Foundation Establishment stage.

He is missing many of his own magical artifacts and treasures, and has only just begun to cultivate a few spirit insects.

Jin Guang Shangren was briefly trapped by the Xuan Guang Geng Jin Formation, while Chen Yi and Ruan Yiqiu fully activated the sword formation and talisman treasures.

A dazzling golden light transformed into a sword array above their heads, unleashing bursts of sharp sword energy.

At this moment, the already formed sword formation expanded to more than double its original size.

The reason is simple: Ruan Yiqiu also used her own essence and spiritual energy to make the sword array talisman treasures exert more power.

Chen Yi exhaled a breath of stale air and manipulated the sword formation to attack the enemy.
