Wild Dogs

Even so, the sword still damaged his meridians, disrupting the flow of his spiritual energy.

Seeing the female cultivator's extreme weakness, the male cultivator gritted his teeth fiercely.

"Fine, you actually dared to stab me with your sword. I will stab you hundreds and thousands of times to vent my hatred."

With that, the male cultivator chuckled lewdly and pounced on her.

Although the female cultivator's sword strike damaged his spiritual energy, disrupting its circulation, he was still a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, and could still exert combat power equivalent to a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

At this moment, the female cultivator had used up all her remaining spiritual energy, leaving her with no means of defense.

As the male cultivator pounced on her, the female cultivator felt a chill in her heart, and for a moment she wanted to bite her tongue and commit suicide.

Just then, her consciousness suddenly stirred, and she sensed a trace of aura hidden in the shadows.

She immediately looked in Yang Fan's direction and shouted.

"My friend in the shadows, if you are willing to lend a helping hand, I will certainly repay you handsomely."

At that moment, the male cultivator also heard the sound. His expression changed, and he looked in Yang Fan's direction.

Meanwhile, Yang Fan, hiding in the shadows, felt a sense of foreboding; this was really troublesome.

Having witnessed all of this, how could that male cultivator possibly let him go?

This woman is, after all, a Nascent Soul cultivator, and must have a family background and lineage. If this bystander is allowed to leave here alive, then the male cultivator must be tired of living.

Sure enough, after hearing the woman's shout, the male cultivator immediately turned around and looked towards the cave.

Seeing this, Yang Fan knew something was wrong, so he hurriedly took out a talisman and tried to burrow underground to leave.

"Where to go?"

Instantly, the male cultivator rushed towards Yang Fan.

Seeing the opponent charging towards him, Yang Fan sighed. He couldn't use the Earth Escape Talisman anymore, so he could only run away immediately.

Fortunately, his boots were fast enough that he rushed out of the cave in an instant.

After bursting out of the cave, Yang Fan shouted as he ran.

"Sir, do whatever you want. I won't ruin your plans. How about we go our separate ways?"

"There's no such thing as one going their own way. But my friend, everyone gets a share, so why don't you line up behind me? After we've both enjoyed it, you can have your turn too. That way, we'll all get a share and be on the same boat, and I'll feel at ease. Friend, as long as you honestly do something, I naturally won't come after you."

The man shouted hurriedly as he chased after him.

Hearing this, Yang Fan couldn't help but sneer. Such words might fool a ghost, but they wouldn't fool him.

If Yang Fan dares to stop, this person will definitely make a move.

Seeing that Yang Fan wouldn't listen, the man realized something was wrong and immediately whistled. A spirit beast then pounced out from the side.

Seeing this, Yang Fan couldn't help but grin. Although this spirit beast wasn't very strong, it was enough to interrupt his progress, so Yang Fan had no choice but to stop for the time being.

Seeing that the spirit beast in front of him was blocking Yang Fan's way, the cultivator behind him immediately rushed over.

Immediately afterwards, the female cultivator shouted again from behind.

"Young man, don't run away. If you save me, I will definitely reward you handsomely."

Then she said loudly.

"Don't worry, my family is very prestigious. As long as you save me, I can not only recommend you to join a major sect, but also give you unimaginable resources."

Then, seeing that Yang Fan remained unmoved, she shouted.

"I swear on my Dao heart today that as long as you can save my life, I am willing to help you break through to the Core Formation stage as soon as possible, and I can provide all the resources you need to reach the Core Formation stage."

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan paused in his tracks.

He never expected that this woman would actually swear an oath with her Daoist heart.

Making an oath with a Daoist heart is a completely different matter.

For ordinary cultivators, an oath is nothing special, but for a Nascent Soul cultivator to swear an oath with their Dao Heart means that if the other party does not fulfill these promises or even breaks them, they will suffer the backlash of the Heavenly Dao.

Yang Fan's heart skipped a beat.

At the same time, Zhou Peng inside the Human King Banner also spoke to him.

"Master, this is a great opportunity! To receive a promise from a Nascent Soul cultivator is something that many people can only dream of. We should give it a try."

But Yang Fan glanced at the cultivator rushing towards him from behind and couldn't help but grin.

This person has already reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment. Although he was injured, he is still equivalent to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment. It is not certain that I can defeat him.

Moreover, looking at the Qi Refining stage spirit beast blocking his way, Yang Fan felt a pang of unease. With attacks from both sides, he might really be unable to defeat it.

"What is there to worry about, Master?"

"Although you haven't reached the mid-Foundation Establishment stage yet, you possess an immense number of treasures, and have you forgotten the talismans you obtained before?"

Talismans?

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan's eyes lit up.

Yes, he already had several hundred talismans accumulated on his own, plus the ones he obtained from Xue Ming.

With hundreds of talismans and his remaining treasures, dealing with this thing was a piece of cake.

More importantly, he remembered the shield that Xue Ming had left him, a shield that could block a Core Formation cultivator's attack.

If he were to risk taking a hit and use that shield to kill the man, wouldn't that be a great opportunity?

Thinking of this, Yang Fan suddenly became interested and stopped immediately.

He then shook the King's Banner forcefully and gave Zhou Peng a command.

"You immediately control a puppet to hold off that spirit beast, I'll deal with this person."

"Yes, Master, don't worry."

Upon receiving Yang Fan's order, Zhou Peng immediately crawled into a puppet, then jumped out of the Human King Banner and pounced on the thing.

As Zhou Peng lunged at the spirit beast, Yang Fan whispered something.

"You should understand that your consciousness is currently connected to this Human King Banner. If you try to escape, your consciousness will dissipate before long."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Peng chuckled.

"Don't worry, Master. I'm not the kind of person who would betray you. I will obey your orders obediently and will never run away."

As he spoke, he pounced on the spirit beast.

"That's good."

As Yang Fan spoke, he looked at the cultivator in front of him.

Seeing the person rushing over, Yang Fan waved his hand, and instantly a flying needle talisman leaped into his hand.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Fan waved his hand, and the flying needle talisman instantly transformed into thousands of extremely sharp flying needles, which directly pierced towards the opponent.

In an instant, thousands of flying needles pressed directly towards the mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"Just some mere talisman treasure, do you think I don't have any?"

With a wave of his hand, a golden brick-shaped talisman appeared in his palm.

The golden brick talisman circled around once, then grew to an enormous size, forcefully blocking the flying needles that filled the sky.
