You think I have mixed spiritual roots? I became an immortal through a spirit gourd, so what are you

Under the combined attack of two experts at the late stage of Body Refinement, Chen Huai'an severely injured one of them in a single exchange.

Old Luo has completely lost his fighting ability.

Chen Huai'an ignored Old Man Luo's scream and slashed at Zhang Song with his long sword.

Zhang Song is the strongest of the three.

But at this moment, Zhang Song was being suppressed by Chen Huai'an.

The Flaming Blade Technique aimed every strike at Zhang Song's vital points, forcing him to retreat continuously.

"Old Luo, hurry up and make a move, this guy is tough." Zhang Song's hand felt like it was about to split open, he couldn't hold on any longer, and desperately begged Old Luo for help.

This kid's fighting power is even stronger than mine, who's only at the ninth level of the late-stage Body Refinement realm. I thought he was an easy target, but it turns out he's a tough nut to crack.

If they had known beforehand that the person in front of them was so powerful, they would never have clashed with him.

Now they have no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.

"Third Sister, stop trapping that bear demon and help us deal with it." Zhang Song flew backward, with the battlefield between Ma San Niang and the bear demon right behind him.

The opponent is too strong; the three of them alone cannot defeat them.

Now, all he has to do is combine the strength of the three of them to take down Chen Huai'an.

Even if they couldn't kill the person in front of them, they still had to save their own lives.

There's a saying that goes, "Where there's life, there's hope."

As long as there is life, there is hope.

There's no need to fight to the death with the other party.

They would rather lose the bear demon's corpse than lose their own lives.

Although Ma San Niang used her spirit whip to control the bear demon, she kept a close eye on the battle between the three of them.

Just as Zhang Song begged her for help, she immediately coiled the spirit whip in her hand and dragged the bear demon toward Chen Huai'an.

To divert trouble, we must provoke Chen Huai'an into angering the bear demon, causing it to go berserk and chase after Chen Huai'an.

Ma San Niang's plan was excellent. The bear demon was thick-skinned and had gone berserk, unable to distinguish friend from foe. As long as the bear demon could hold Chen Huai'an off for a moment, the three of them would surely be able to take the opportunity to kill Chen Huai'an.

"Pfft!"

The idea was appealing—to use a scapegoat to kill Chen Huai'an, letting the maddened bear demon deal with him. But they underestimated Chen Huai'an's strength. Chen Huai'an faced the maddened bear demon head-on, and with just one strike, he pierced through the bear demon's proud defenses, eliciting a mournful scream.

"Impossible, impossible, how is this possible? One strike and his defense is broken." Zhang Song's eyes widened. The bear demon's defense was notoriously abnormal, but now, a strange young man in front of him had broken through the opponent's defense with a single strike. Killing this bear demon would only take a few strikes, and they had actually provoked such a monster.

"Retreat quickly! This person is pretending to be weak while actually being strong. He is a master at the ninth level of the late stage of Body Refinement." With just one move, Zhang Song was immediately terrified.

It was precisely this exceptional keenness that allowed him to survive one dangerous situation after another in the Qingyun Mountains.

Zhang Song wasn't the kind of reckless brute who would fight to the death when he got into a bloodthirsty frenzy. His first thought was how to survive, especially in desperate situations.

"Trying to run? Today is your death day!" Chen Huai'an shouted, slashing at Zhang Song with his sword.

This person is the strongest; we must take him down first.

Next is Ma San Niang, and finally Luo Lao Tou. Luo Lao Tou is already severely injured, so even if he wanted to run, he couldn't go far.

"when!"

With a loud bang, Chen Huai'an struck Zhang Song with his sword, but instead of blood splattering, a golden shield appeared around him.

"Damn bastard, my first-tier Vajra Talisman!" With just one strike, the Vajra Shield in front of Zhang Song dimmed.

He didn't even use the Vajra Talisman to protect himself when facing the raging bear demon. Now, an unknown young man almost broke through his Vajra Shield with just one strike.

Given the opponent's explosive power, his Vajra Talisman Shield would be broken in no more than three strikes.

"Damn bastard, you better not fall into my hands, or I'll really tear you to pieces!" Zhang Song roared venomously, slapping a speed talisman on himself. He had to run away.

At this moment, Chen Huai'an finally saw clearly that Zhang Song had slapped a blue talisman on his body; this bastard had run out of tricks.

Seeing Zhang Song dart out like lightning, Chen Huai'an used his movement technique to chase after him, and in the blink of an eye, he was out of Zhang Song's attack range.

Ma San Niang and Old Man Luo also applied a speed-boosting talisman to their bodies, and their speed increased dramatically.

At that moment, the bear demon, oblivious to its own mortality, pounced on him, leaving Chen Huai'an with no choice but to give up.

These three bastards have such life-saving skills, he simply can't catch them.

If he chases after the three, the bear demon will definitely escape, and he will truly lose both his wife and his army, which would be a great loss.

After weighing the options, Chen Huai'an still chose to kill the bear demon.

After slaying the bear demon, he can return to the market to buy some protective talismans.

He especially wanted to buy several of the speed-enhancing talismans used by Ma San Niang and her group.

With the speed-enhancing talisman, chasing the three would be much easier, and they certainly wouldn't escape like they did today.

The bear demon's corpse is extremely valuable, worth over a hundred spirit stones, so it's definitely not to be missed.

When the bear demon pounced on Chen Huai'an, Chen Huai'an raised his sword to meet it.

With Chen Huai'an's current strength, without the three people interfering, he killed the bear demon with just three strikes.

"This big guy is enough to feed me for several days." After the battle, Chen Huai'an put the bear demon's corpse into his spatial storage.

"I wonder where those three bastards ran off to. If I get the chance, I definitely won't let them get away with it." Chen Huai'an looked in the direction Zhang Song had fled, and decided to chase after them to see what was happening.

Finding and killing the other party is naturally a good thing; if you can't kill them, getting some resources from the trading market is also a good thing.

These bastards are definitely skilled at escaping and saving their lives.

Chen Huai'an chased after them for more than ten miles, but found no trace of the three people. He shook his head in dismay.

He had already offended these three people, and they wouldn't let him go. Similarly, he wouldn't let them go either. Given the chance, he would definitely kill them.

"It seems necessary to learn a tracking technique in the future." Chen Huai'an had heard that the tracking technique, when cultivated to the Qi Refining Realm, could leave a magical mark or a divine thought mark on the enemy.

"We're still too weak; we can't use many of our methods. Otherwise, these three bastards definitely wouldn't have escaped today."

"Hmm, this terrain looks familiar, like I've seen it somewhere before." Chen Huai'an suddenly realized that the terrain around him seemed to be familiar.

In particular, a small hill behind that cluster of tall shrubs leads to the direction where you enter the Qingyun Mountain Range if you turn right.

"This place is a signpost for the path to some cultivator's cave." Chen Huai'an slapped his thigh and immediately remembered why the route nearby looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

"Since we've met, it must be fate. We can go to the trading market anytime, but this cultivator's cave is definitely worth exploring." Chen Huai'an took out the map of the cultivator's cave, glanced at it, and the location described wasn't too different from here. It wasn't far from the location described on the map, so it was a good time to explore.
