Body Refinement for Longevity: From Health Cultivation Exercises to Overcoming All Techniques

Chapter 158 Counterattack

Lu Tianren was startled and quickly summoned another golden talisman to defend himself.

His defensive magic artifacts were destroyed when he fought the monster at Eagle Falcon Mountain, so now he can only buy some defensive talismans for temporary protection.

Originally, he planned to get his hands on a mid-level magic weapon after dealing with Chen Han, but now that hope was dashed, and survival was what he needed to do now.

The golden talisman's defensive power was clearly not low, and it effectively blocked the old cultivator's attack.

However, the old cultivator was not surprised at all. Instead, a disdainful smile appeared on his lips. He pointed his finger in the air again, followed by another beam of light.

Within a few breaths, five beams of light shot towards Lu Tianren simultaneously.

Lu Tianren's pupils contracted sharply, and a sense of crisis arose instantly.

He dodged repeatedly, occasionally using golden talismans to defend himself, trying to break through the encirclement, but the old cultivator's methods were truly disgusting. Not only did he have a high position advantage, but his spells were also so oppressive that it was hard for him to breathe.

If this continues, his talismans will eventually run out.

At this point, forcing ourselves to endure it is not a solution; we must find another way.

Lu Tianren suddenly looked towards the dense mountains. At that moment, he made up his mind to abandon his escape in the air and instead sped down into the deep mountains.

The old cultivator frowned slightly and shouted, "We absolutely cannot let him get away! Otherwise, none of us will ever have a peaceful life again!"

Chen Han knew without the old cultivator's reminder. Thunder surged around him once more, and his Cloud Wind Boots glowed white. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from his spot and caught up with Lu Tianren in just a few breaths.

The mountain streams, rocks, and trees were perfect footholds for Chen Han, but obstacles that Lu Tianren, who was flying on his magical artifact, needed to carefully dodge.

Thus, Chen Han's speed was naturally a bit faster than Lu Tianren's.

"Lu Tianren, your death is at hand! You try to escape, but where can you run? Today, your life is in my hands!"

Chen Han didn't need to kill Lu Tianren alone, as that would be quite risky. He only needed to stall for a moment until the old cultivator arrived.

At that time, Lu Tianren will truly have nowhere to go, neither to heaven nor to hell.

"Chen Han, are you really determined to fight me to the death? Aren't you afraid I'll retaliate in my dying moments and drag you down with me?"

Lu Tianren's face turned ugly as he threatened.

"Lu Tianren, don't struggle when you're about to die. You know too much about my methods. If I let you go, I won't be able to eat or sleep properly. You will definitely die today."

As Chen Han spoke, his speed increased dramatically, and in less than three breaths, he had already attacked Lu Tianren.

"Good lad, well done, Chen Han!"

Lu Tianren fled in a sorry state, but he was not a coward. Faced with Chen Han's attack, he summoned his sword-shaped magic weapon and rode the sword straight through the air.

Chen Han's gaze sharpened, and he spat out a copper coin-shaped magical artifact to defend himself.

The two magical instruments collided, creating a piercing, mournful sound.

"Chen Han, do you really think I, Lu Tianren, am someone to be trifled with!"

Lu Tianren shouted and stopped running, intending to deal with the junior who had driven him to the brink of death first.

While controlling his sword, Lu Tianren distracted himself, and a spell slowly condensed in his hand, gradually forming a fireball the size of a head.

"Go to hell!"

The fireball traced an astonishing arc, striking directly at Chen Han's side.

Chen Han was shocked. He hadn't expected that Lu Tianren could control his sword while simultaneously focusing his mind on condensing magic, all while maintaining the momentum of the sword strike in just a few breaths.

Ordinary cultivators couldn't do this; it seems this is Lu Tianren's trump card.

This was a flame that could burn even bones to ash, and Chen Han dared not touch it at all, quickly dodging away.

The fireball grazed his eyebrows and exploded beside him.

Although Chen Han was not directly hit, he was caught in the aftershock because he dodged too quickly. He was sent flying like a cannonball and crashed heavily onto the rocks.

His vision went black, and a figure appeared.

Lu Tianren pressed his advantage and attacked again on his sword.

Despite being physically and mentally exhausted, Chen Han dared not be negligent and subconsciously offered up the copper coins for defense once more.

However, this time, he was not in good condition and was completely at a disadvantage as soon as they started fighting, and was suppressed.

However, his life was at stake, and if he couldn't hold on, he would die. He was determined to hold on no matter what.

The next moment, Lu Tianren put away his magic weapon and took a few deep breaths.

Such a battle also took a toll on him.

Chen Han frowned, weakly kneeling on the ground, clutching his chest, gritting his teeth to hold on, but in the next moment he couldn't hold back and vomited a large pool of blood.

Lu Tianren was astonished that Chen Han could survive such a series of attacks.

"Chen Han, I have to admit, you're really too difficult to deal with."

Lu Tianren once again flew on his sword, intending to finish the battle quickly. "However, you will still die by my hand."

The sword trembled slightly, then transformed into a bolt of lightning and struck Chen Han directly.

As for Chen Han, he naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait for his death; before anyone knew it, a fireball talisman was already between his fingers.

At this moment, he did not hesitate and attacked back. With a flick of his hand, the fireball talisman transformed into a blazing fireball that collided head-on with the sharp sword.

At the same time, he swallowed a pill to slightly recover from his injuries.

The next moment, the low-level fireball was no match for the low-level sword-shaped magic weapon. After colliding for less than five breaths, it exploded on the spot. In the flames, the sword-shaped magic weapon shot straight towards Chen Han like a sharp arrow.

But little did they know that Chen Han was not in the same place at all; only wisps of electric arcs and fleeting afterimages remained.

Lu Tianren was quite confident in his magic weapon and intended to kill Chen Han with one blow. Therefore, he had just used the magic weapon with all his might to kill Chen Han. However, he did not expect that Chen Han would suddenly grab a talisman and throw it out. This made him slightly stunned. Then, unwilling to be outdone, he poured his magic power into the weapon and fought back.

Unexpectedly, Chen Han reacted extremely quickly. Knowing that he was no match for him, he immediately used his speed advantage to launch a counterattack.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Han appeared behind Lu Tianren.

The latter, whose attention had been entirely focused on the sword, was a beat too slow and was greatly alarmed. He hurriedly tried to summon the talisman again, but his soul suddenly froze—it was the Soul-Sweeping Technique from Chen Han's Body Refining Technique. He realized what was happening in the blink of an eye and tried to counterattack, but it was too late.

Chen Han is already close!

As everyone knows, physical cultivators are weak. At the same level, physical cultivators are a grade lower than magic cultivators. However, if it comes to close combat, magic cultivators have almost no chance to fight back.

As soon as Lu Tianren raised his hand, Chen Han grabbed it with an iron clamp-like hand and then exerted force, instantly turning his hand bones into dust and fragments.

Ah!

you!

Lu Tianren's voice was hoarse as he let out a miserable scream.

Immediately afterward, he raised two fingers of his other hand, ready to slay the person in front of him with his sword, but Chen Han was so shrewd, how could he not notice?

Pfft~ Ahhh!

Chen Han grabbed it again and crushed it instantly.

The sword-shaped magical artifact lost its magical control and instantly became useless, falling to the ground.

Then, Chen Han grabbed Lu Tianren by the neck, and the iron chain-like Immortal Binding Rope shot out from under the black clothes like its tentacles, piercing Lu Tianren with several bloody holes. At the same time, Chen Han exerted force in his hand.
