Cultivating Immortality: Beginning with Blessings from the Immortals

The two were extremely close, and Zhang Mazi had no time to react before a small cloud of poisonous mist enveloped his face.

The next moment, Zhang Mazi let out a shrill roar.

Chen Yi showed no mercy, slashing the Blazing Sun Sword upwards.

A deep sword wound instantly appeared on Zhang Mazi's chest and abdomen, and blood gushed out immediately.

Chen Yi delivered a follow-up kick, knocking him to the ground. Instead of killing him outright, he turned to support Wei Wufeng.

Li Erdan and Zheng Dayou naturally heard Zhang Mazi's screams and immediately decided to retreat.

Chen Yi, wielding the Blazing Sun Sword, and Wei Wufeng attacked the two men, quickly wounding them both and causing them to fall to the ground.

"Let us go, let us go! This was all Zhang Mazi's idea!" Zheng Dayou hurriedly protested.

He was stabbed in the chest and thigh by Wei Wufeng's short sword, immediately losing his ability to move. Li Ergou, who was standing next to him, was pierced through by Chen Yi's long sword and was already barely breathing.

Chen Yi gasped for breath and immediately swallowed two Qi Condensation Pills. Wei Wufeng also took the opportunity to regulate his breathing and recover his spiritual energy.

He ignored Zheng Dayou and his companion's pleas for mercy and instead went to Zhang Mazi.

Zhang Mazi's face was corroded by the venom, and blood was gushing from the wounds on his chest and abdomen. He barely managed to lift his head to look at Chen Yi, his eyes blurred by the venom.

"You, you actually..."

He never expected that he would be defeated by Chen Yi, and that Chen Yi would use underhanded tactics to ambush him.

Chen Yi remained unmoved, his expression icy as he asked:

"Was it Zhao Junri who instructed you all for my land deed?"

Zhang Mazi stared intently at Chen Yi, then remained silent.

Upon seeing this, a cold glint flashed in Chen Yi's eyes, and he pointed the Blazing Sun Sword directly at Zhang Mazi's heart.

The next moment, the longsword burst into flames and pierced straight through Zhang Mazi.

Zhang Mazi spat out a mouthful of blood and then died.

Looking at Zhang Mazi's miserable state, Chen Yi felt a surge of nausea in his stomach; this was the first time he had killed someone.

He immediately activated the Blazing Sun Furnace Technique, and with the passive effect of the True Martial Emperor, he quickly calmed down.

Zheng Dayou and Li Erdan, standing nearby, looked terrified and, disregarding their injuries, immediately begged for mercy.

Wei Wufeng gave them no chance, immediately wielding his longsword and cleanly killing the two.

"Phew, Chen Yi, if it weren't for you, I probably would have died here too," Wei Wufeng said, expressing his gratitude.

Chen Yi nodded slightly, looked around, and said:

"Brother Wei, let's leave this place first. I'm afraid the fight just now will attract attention."

Wei Wufeng immediately realized what was happening and began searching Zhang Mazi and the other two. After taking their storage bags and magical artifacts, he and Chen Yi left the place.

The two of them rushed forward for more than ten kilometers before stopping.

Chen Yi immediately helped Wei Wufeng treat his injuries, and only stopped after Wei Wufeng was covered in bandages.

Wei Wufeng's forehead was covered in a dense layer of sweat as he leaned against the tree trunk, panting heavily.

After giving him a long pause, Chen Yi finally asked about the recent events.

"If it weren't for you this time, I probably would have..."

It turned out that Wei Wufeng and his companions had been searching for the Golden Light Immortal's cave on the outskirts of Wanling Mountain all this time. However, the area around Wanling Mountain was too vast, and they had not found any trace of it.

It wasn't until they frequently encountered battles between cultivators that they learned that some cultivators had already found the Golden Light Immortal's cave.

However, being pursued by many cultivators, Wei Wufeng and the others naturally joined in the fun, hoping to seize the opportunity.

I only found an opportunity a few days ago.

However, Wei Wufeng and his companions only managed to obtain a portion of the treasures and were also pursued by many cultivators. Along the way, Wei Wufeng's friends died one after another, leaving him all alone in the end.

He thought he had escaped to safety, but he was pursued by Zhang Mazi and his two companions. If it weren't for Chen Yi's intervention, he would probably have died long ago.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi's face showed surprise; this was the first time he had ever witnessed a battle between cultivators.

Even if you manage to seize an opportunity, you still need to consider whether you have the luck and the ability to hold onto it.

"Once I get back, I'll find someone to lift the restriction, and then I can get Master Jin Guang's treasure!!"

"Chen Yi, I'll share half with you this time," Wei Wufeng said with a loud laugh.

Chen Yi quickly waved his hand, although he had saved Wei Wufeng, he had also intervened once.

"Alright, you two don't need to be so formal with each other."

"Alright, I'll pick out the rest for you first. As for the storage bags of Zhang Mazi and the other two, you can have them." Wei Wufeng said as he handed the three storage bags to Chen Yi.

Seeing this, Chen Yi couldn't refuse and immediately checked the three storage bags.

The three of them had a total of two to three thousand spirit stones, several spellbooks, and many cultivation pills in their storage bags.

"It's alright, but it's still a bit poor," Chen Yi complained.

Wei Wufeng, who was standing to the side, said, "They came to kill and plunder, so naturally they wouldn't be carrying many spirit stones or precious items."

"They're just Zhao Junri's lackeys at best. If I hadn't been seriously injured, I could have easily taken care of them by myself."

Chen Yi nodded helplessly and put all the three people's belongings into his storage bag.

It was getting late.

Chen Yi and Wei Wufeng found a secluded spot to rest, planning to stay overnight before returning to the market.

Wei Wufeng was seriously injured, and as soon as he relaxed, he fell asleep.

Seeing this, Chen Yi had no choice but to stay by his side. As night gradually enveloped the entire Wanling Mountain area, the sense of danger in the dense forest intensified.

He and Wei Wufeng hid at the top of the giant tree, and Chen Yi could still faintly hear the sounds of battle not far away.

No sleep for one night.

The morning sunlight filtered through the lush foliage, illuminating the two of them.

Chen Yi spoke to Wei Wufeng, and the two got up and left to return to the market.

He carried the still-wounded Wei Wufeng back to the market as dusk approached.

Chen Yi looked towards the north gate of the market town ahead and breathed a sigh of relief. Although they had fought, they had successfully rescued Wei Wufeng on this trip.

This made Chen Yi suspect that his luck was exceptionally good, perhaps related to the blessings bestowed by the immortals.

The two returned to the courtyard without stopping. Pushing open the gate, they found Wei Xueqing sitting in a wheelchair in the courtyard.

She looked surprised when she saw Chen Yi and the other person appear.

"Brother, Brother Chen, you're finally back!" Wei Xueqing said with tears in her eyes.

Even the usually composed Wei Wufeng had tears in his eyes, and choked up as he said:

"Why are you crying? I'm back safely, aren't I?"

Chen Yi helped Wei Wufeng into the room, and he and Wei Xueqing carefully treated his wounds.

By the time he finished this busy period, it was already late at night. Wei Wufeng fell into a deep sleep, a peaceful and serene expression on his face.

Chen Yi breathed a sigh of relief. Wei Xueqing thanked Chen Yi repeatedly and stayed in the room to take care of Wei Wufeng.

He left Wei Wufeng and his sister alone for a while, then got up and left the room.

After washing up and changing into clean clothes, Chen Yi lay down on the bed, feeling somewhat tired.

He didn't sleep; instead, he recalled his experience on the outskirts of Wanling Mountain.

"Dealing with Zhang Mazi and his two companions this time will bring some peace for a while, but what about Zhao Junri..."
