Immortality begins with equipping a worn-out talisman pen.

After leaving the market, the number of people around became noticeably smaller.

Li Mufeng walked briskly along the alley leading back to the cave.

Suddenly, his consciousness stirred slightly.

Three auras appeared within the range of perception.

Two Qi Refining Level 4 cultivators.

One is at the fifth level of Qi Refining.

Moreover, the goal is clear and is rapidly approaching.

Li Mufeng's expression darkened slightly. It seemed that there were far too many desperate rogue cultivators flooding into the market recently.

I tried my best to appear ordinary and low-key, but I was still treated like prey.

Without the slightest hesitation.

Snapped!

A talisman of speed was instantly slapped onto his body.

With a flash of inspiration, Li Mufeng felt the wind beneath his feet, his speed increasing dramatically as he rushed straight towards the cave.

Once they entered the cave area under the jurisdiction of the Qingxuan Sect, these people would never dare to make a move.

But the next moment.

A figure suddenly emerged from the alleyway ahead.

It was that middle-aged cultivator at the fifth level of Qi Refining. The other party was obviously prepared and had taken a detour to intercept him in advance.

at the same time.

Two figures also jumped down from the tops of the walls on both sides behind.

The scarred monk.

One-eyed monk.

The three men formed a triangular formation, blocking Li Mufeng in the alley.

With wolves in front and tigers behind, their escape route was completely cut off.

Li Mufeng slowly stopped and glanced at the three of them, his expression calming down.

"Someone from the Wang family?"

The middle-aged monk did not answer.

Li Mufeng immediately made a judgment in his mind.

"Not the Wang family."

"Those are the thieves who took advantage of the chaos in the market to fish in troubled waters."

Since that's the case, then there's nothing to worry about.

He had originally planned to test the waters.

It now seems that the other party had no intention of letting him leave alive.

next moment.

Li Mufeng suddenly flicked his sleeve.

A water arrow instantly condensed into shape.

call out!

The air was torn apart with a piercing shriek.

The water arrow headed straight for the face of the nearest one-eyed monk.

The speed is astonishing.

The one-eyed monk clearly hadn't expected that a prey that had been cornered would dare to make the first move.

But in the end, they were people who had spent years living on the edge of a knife.

In a critical moment, his hands moved swiftly, forming hand seals.

An earthen-yellow spirit shield rose up in front of him.

"Mere water arrow technique..."

There was even a hint of disdain on his lips.

However, the next second, the water arrow suddenly split into three, flying towards his face, groin, and back respectively.

boom!

The water arrow slammed into the spirit shield.

The spirit shield shattered as easily as if it were made of paper.

The one-eyed cultivator's expression changed drastically.

"wrong!"

It's a pity it's too late.

The water arrow, still powerful after breaking through the spirit shield, slammed heavily into his shoulder.

puff!

Blood splattered.

A bloody hole was blown out of half of his shoulder.

He screamed and flew backward.

"How is that possible?"

The one-eyed monk was filled with horror.

How could a mere rogue cultivator at the fourth level of Qi Refining have mastered the Water Arrow Technique to this extent?

Just as he collapsed from his serious injuries.

The scarred monk seized the opportunity and charged forward.

These outlaws are best at coordinated attacks.

The moment my companion was injured.

He was already within three zhang of Li Mufeng.

With a flick of his wrist, a crimson fire serpent roared forth, its scorching heat blasting towards him—a powerful fire-based spell indeed.

"Die, you son of a bitch!"

Facing the oncoming fire snake.

Li Mufeng, however, remained calm and unhurried.

With a wave of his hand, a talisman appeared, radiating spiritual light—it was a fine water arrow talisman!

boom!

The fire serpent and the water arrow collided violently in mid-air.

A large amount of white mist exploded instantly.

The impact of the collision between water and fire even caused cracks to appear in the walls on both sides.

The scarred monk's eyelids twitched.

Before I even had a chance to feel bad about the spiritual energy I had consumed.

Then they saw Li Mufeng take out a second talisman from his sleeve.

Then the third one.

The fourth one.

The fifth one.

......

Several high-quality water arrow talismans were activated almost simultaneously.

The scarred monk's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

"Again?"

"I refuse to believe your exquisite talismans are free!"

next moment.

Several water arrows radiating azure light shot out simultaneously.

Overwhelming.

The entire alleyway was completely covered.

The scarred monk's face turned deathly pale instantly.

"No--"

Boom boom boom!

A series of explosions echoed through the long street, and his protective spiritual shield was shattered after only one breath.

Several water arrows then pierced his body, and the scarred cultivator spat out a mouthful of blood, his body flying backward like a torn sack.

He crashed heavily into the wall and died on the spot.

At this moment, only one person remained in the arena.

A middle-aged cultivator at the fifth level of Qi Refining.

But at this moment, his face was extremely pale.

I originally thought it was just a matter of casually crushing a lamb to the slaughter.

In the blink of an eye, one of his companions died and the other was crippled.

He even had a feeling of seeing a ghost.

Who would have thought that a random cultivator you bump into in the market would have such a wealthy background?

They were throwing around high-quality water arrow talismans like they were free.

Even many late-stage Qi Refining cultivators don't have such extravagance.

"Oh shit......"

The middle-aged cultivator secretly lamented, wondering what kind of monster he had provoked.

But there's no turning back now. The opponent just activated so many talismans, they must be at their limit by now.

"I admit I underestimated you just now."

The middle-aged cultivator's eyes gradually turned sinister.

"But you're still going to die here today!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a shuttle-shaped magical artifact flew out instantly.

With the infusion of spiritual power, the shuttle transformed into a gray afterimage, its speed astonishing.

call out!

Li Mufeng's pupils suddenly contracted.

This was the first time he had faced a real offensive magical artifact.

Danger!

Extremely dangerous!

The shuttle arrived almost in the blink of an eye.

He dodged hastily, but a bloody scratch was still left on his shoulder.

If it weren't for the fact that the Stone Skin Realm had strengthened his physical body, this attack would have been enough to seriously injure him.

Li Mufeng's expression changed slightly.

Without hesitation, he fired another high-quality Swiftness Talisman, causing his evasion speed to surge once again.

His entire body left trails of afterimages in the alleyway.

That's how they barely managed to escape the relentless pursuit of the flying shuttle.

The middle-aged monk also seized the opportunity.

He leaped up and, using the flying shuttle to restrain Li Mufeng, managed to get close to him.

He was preparing to unleash his most powerful killing move.

Suddenly, a black machete appeared in his hand.

The magical artifact shone brightly and slashed down fiercely at Li Mufeng's head.

"it's over!"

The blade flashed as it arrived.

Li Mufeng suddenly revealed a cold smile.

Snapped!

A golden talisman was instantly activated, and a dazzling golden light enveloped the entire body. At the same time, the Stone Skin Realm was operating at full power, and a rock-like grayish-white color faintly appeared beneath the skin.

Boom!

The cleaver slashed fiercely at the golden protective shield.

A tremendous force of recoil erupted instantly, and the middle-aged cultivator's expression changed drastically.

"What?"

"A body-refining cultivator!"

A terrifying shockwave traveled along the hilt of the sword.

The shock caused his tiger's mouth to split open, his arms to go numb, and his whole body to stiffen for a moment.

In that instant, Li Mufeng was able to unleash a talisman.

A blue beam of light, several times thicker than the Water Arrow Technique, suddenly took shape.

Tier 1 Mid-grade Talisman - Water Gun Talisman!

The water vapor in the air gathered wildly.

It eventually transformed into a long, azure spear, about ten feet long.

The gun's body was so solid it seemed to radiate a sharp edge, and even the surrounding air appeared to distort slightly.

The middle-aged cultivator only glanced at it, and the hairs on his body stood on end.

"not good!"

Unfortunately, it was too late.

call out--

The water gun shot out like a bolt of blue lightning, piercing directly through the middle-aged cultivator's chest.

The immense impact sent him flying more than ten feet away, finally slamming him hard against the wall in the distance.

Blood flowed continuously down the gun barrel.

The middle-aged cultivator looked down at the huge bloody hole in his chest.

His eyes were filled with disbelief, his head tilted to the side, and he lost all hope of survival.

The alleyway finally quieted down.

Li Mufeng slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.

They quickly searched the storage bags and magical artifacts belonging to the robbers, and then swiftly cleaned up any obvious traces.

After doing all this, he slapped on a high-quality concealing talisman, and his aura quickly became barely perceptible.

Then, with a flash, he disappeared into the night.
