Cultivating Immortality: Beginning with Blessings from the Immortals

Chen Yi immediately and secretly controlled the fire ants to press their advantage and kill the three of them instantly.

The two evil cultivators were scorched by flames, and screams of agony erupted from their bodies.

Before the three evil cultivators could react, the ground around them suddenly began to writhe strangely, and crimson flying ants rushed towards them.

One of the evil cultivators was seriously injured and died immediately after being attacked by a swarm of iron fire ants.

The other two evil cultivators exerted all their strength, their bodies radiating a murderous aura.

However, the fire ants seemed to have some resistance to the evil energy, and were still able to tear at their flesh and magical artifacts.

At this moment, the other evil cultivators were all restrained by Sun Huo and others.

Without any hesitation, Chen Yi activated his black cloak artifact, and instantly vanished like a shadow.

He rushed up to the two evil cultivators and immediately threw out eight or nine talismans.

Fireballs, water blades, and lightning bolts shot out instantly, forcing the two back once again.

Chen Yi burst out from the shadow of the nearby rock, his hands instantly pointing at the evil cultivator in front of him.

"Nine Needles of Cold Shadow, Entangling Silk"

The next moment, a series of flying needles shot out from Chen Yi's sleeves, heading straight for the vital points on the two men's bodies.

"Pfft pfft pfft"

The sound of piercing flesh rang out leisurely, and the two bodies were instantly pierced by the Nine Cold Shadow Needles.

After landing a successful blow, Chen Yi immediately retreated.

The enemy also had a Foundation Establishment stage evil cultivator, so he naturally dared not venture deeper. One of the Foundation Establishment stage evil cultivators saw Chen Yi kill one of their own and immediately rushed towards him.

Chen Yi retreated with all his might, while simultaneously manipulating the formation to attack the opponent.

However, the two array barriers were already quite damaged, and under the attack of the Foundation Establishment stage evil cultivator, they could not last long before turning into fragments.

Chen Yi kept retreating, and Deng Liangyu, who was next to him, immediately used magic to block the opponent's continued attack on Chen Yi.

At this moment, Chen Yi's array barrier shattered.

The Earth Dragon Fire Formation and the Sword Formation were still in place, blocking these evil cultivators.

Currently, Gu Xinghan and his group consist of five Foundation Establishment cultivators, while Chen Yi's side has four Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Chen Yi and Mu Yuanrong are both Qi Refining stage cultivators. In terms of combat strength, Gu Xinghan and the others have the upper hand.

However, relying on the power of the formation, Chen Yi and the others were still able to suppress their opponents.

"Phew, that was close!" Chen Yi exhaled a breath of air.

He manipulated the formation one after another, and the swarm of insects cast talismans, leaving him with little spiritual energy.

Chen Yi immediately took out a pill and swallowed it to begin restoring his spiritual energy.

Gu Xinghan, who was entangled with the fire dragon, saw his three Qi Refining stage subordinates being killed, and a cold look appeared on his face.

He took out a magical artifact from his storage bag and immediately spat a mouthful of blood onto it.

A flying sword, more than half a meter long and with a blood-red blade, instantly emitted bursts of radiant light.

This was crafted from a fragment of a Nascent Soul stage natal magic weapon, and its power far surpasses that of ordinary magic artifacts.

Gu Xinghan gripped the Blood Demon Sword and immediately slashed at the fire dragon before him.

Sharp sword energies roared out, instantly leaving wounds on the fire dragon's body.

Sun Huo, who was controlling the sword, had a solemn expression. He naturally sensed the terrifying power of the Blood Demon Sword and hurriedly controlled the fire dragon to launch continuous attacks.

Chen Yi naturally noticed Gu Xinghan and immediately spoke up:

"Brother Deng, Miss Lin."

"This person is probably the leader of these evil cultivators. We'd better deal with him first."

Upon hearing this, Deng Liangyu and Lin Ling'er naturally noticed Gu Xinghan wielding the Blood Demon Sword.

They held back, taking out talismans from their storage bags in preparation for their attack.

Sun Huo, Wu Yifeng, Mu Yuanrong, and others immediately stepped in to cover them.

Seeing this, Chen Yi manipulated the swarm of iron fire ants and immediately rushed towards the evil cultivator in the formation.

At the same time, he secretly placed several porcelain bottles into the fire ants.

The fire ants attacked the evil cultivators from above like waves of tides.

Several crisp cracking sounds rang out, and pale golden scales instantly fell down.

Caught off guard, the three Foundation Establishment stage evil cultivators were stained with some pale golden scale powder, and their bodies instantly erupted with baleful energy, forcing them back.

But then the fire ants arrived, attacking the three from different directions.

Although the swarm of iron fire ants is powerful, it is somewhat inadequate against Foundation Establishment cultivators.

However, Chen Yi's goal was to use it to block the opponent's view and to cover Deng Liangyu and Lin Ling'er in using their talismanic treasures.

At this moment, the talisman floating in front of the two emitted bursts of rosy light.

A golden longsword appeared in front of Deng Liangyu, then multiplied into two, then four, instantly unleashing countless golden sword energies that attacked Gu Xinghan.

The talisman in Lin Ling'er's hand transformed into a golden bowl that descended from above, like Mount Tai pressing down on the opponent.

Seeing this, Sun Huo coordinated with the two to attack, and fiercely detonated the fire dragon.

The fire dragon erupted with bursts of flames, instantly engulfing Gu Xinghan and the black-robed elder.

The next moment, numerous golden sword energies and golden bowls attacked the opponent together.

"Boom!"

The clash of talismans, formations, and spells instantly unleashed a surging wave of energy.

Sun Huo's array barrier shattered instantly. He immediately used a shield technique and a fire escape technique to retreat and rejoin Chen Yi and the others.

Chen Yi held the seven-colored jade pendant in his hand, intending to activate the protective magic artifact at any time.

The aftershocks of the explosion carried lava, and volcanic ash continued to spread, temporarily obscuring everyone's vision.

However, Chen Yi was certain that his attack had severely injured his opponent.

At that moment, a black streak of light shot out and flew backward as fast as lightning.

"You bastards, I'll remember you."

"If we meet again, I will surely turn you into puppets, so that you may never be reincarnated." A ruthless and sinister voice came from within the black light.

"Is this a teleportation technique?!" Chen Yi frowned slightly.

This speed far exceeds that of ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators, and is somewhat similar to the legendary escape techniques of Golden Core cultivators.

Chen Yi used his insect control technique to manipulate the fire ants to scatter the volcanic ash and gravel from mid-air onto the ground.

The situation on the field became clear immediately: the two Foundation Establishment cultivators were severely injured and collapsed to the ground, their fate unknown, under the attack of the talisman and the fire dragon.

Gu Xinghan and the old man in black robes disappeared; the light that flashed earlier must have been them.

Another heretical cultivator abandoned his companions and was riding a flying magical artifact backwards.

Seeing this, Chen Yi and the others did not give chase, but rushed forward to observe the two evil cultivators on the ground.

"It's a pity they're all dead."

"Otherwise, we should be able to pry some information out of them," Chen Yi thought to himself.

Chen Yi picked up their storage bags and handed them to everyone.

"These are their storage bags. Everyone, take a look and divide them up if you find anything usable," Chen Yi said.

Sun Huo, Wu Yifeng, Deng Liangyu, and others were not interested in this.

After all, they were a group of evil cultivators, and they had very few items that ordinary cultivators could use. Moreover, they were wealthy, so they gave them all to Chen Yi.

Chen Yi smiled, thanked him, and then put the storage bag into his pocket.

"Alright, everyone."

"We should find the Earth Vein Fire Lotus as soon as possible; we shouldn't stay here any longer," Sun Huo advised.

Upon seeing this, Lin Ling'er immediately led everyone forward.

The volcanic cluster ahead is the area where the Earth Vein Fire Lotus was born. Lin Ling'er took the map and came to the vicinity of a volcano.

The volcano has not erupted, but it has shown signs of awakening.

The recent series of volcanic eruptions has already stimulated the surrounding dormant volcanic cluster.

Chen Yi stared down, beginning his search for traces of the Earth Vein Fire Lotus.
