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

"Damn it, how can this guy be so strong?" The tall man was shocked when his sneak attack failed.

He was one of the top twelve experts on the Spirit Ranking among the miscellaneous disciples of the Qingyun Sect's Miscellaneous Peak. While he might not be invincible at the ninth level of the Body Refinement Realm, he certainly wouldn't be unable to defeat a mere nobody at the late stage of the Body Refinement Realm.

This area is mostly inhabited by the miscellaneous disciples and outer disciples of the Qingyun Sect. At the Body Refinement Realm, he had never seen or heard of such a powerful scarred man.

They were three of them ganging up on this guy, which gave them a huge advantage, but one of them died the moment they clashed. His sneak attack hadn't even scratched his opponent.

Chen Huai'an was equally alarmed.

He had experienced several such chaotic battles before, and had always escaped unscathed. But this time, the opponent he faced was stronger than the previous two waves.

Especially the tall man, whose attack power was extremely domineering. If he hadn't used the Elephant Armor Technique to integrate earth-type spiritual power into it, which was equivalent to the protective power of a low-grade Vajra Talisman, he would have been seriously injured by the opponent's sword just now, even if he wasn't seriously injured.

He underestimated the world.

This person is stronger than any of his previous opponents.

In battles between immortal masters, the contest is never about the strength of one's cultivation level, but rather about equipment, weapons, and techniques.

"You're very strong. Are you a disciple of the Qingyun Sect?" The tall man stared intently at Chen Huai'an. He had launched a full-force sneak attack, but he hadn't managed to hurt Chen Huai'an. He couldn't understand how there could be such a person among the menial disciples of the Qingyun Sect.

This person's strength, even if not above his, was still comparable. He searched through all the memories in his mind, but he could not recall such a powerful figure on the Spirit Ranking.

"If you want to rob me, you'd better be prepared to die." Chen Huai'an ignored the other party and used his Flaming Blade Technique to its fullest extent as he charged towards them.

With such a master in the field, it's simply impossible to kill another person right under their nose.

So what he had to do was kill the person in front of him first, and then find an opportunity to kill the other person.

"You shameless bastard, die!" Pi Peng roared as he saw Chen Huai'an charging at him. His spiritual power surged forth, and he thrust his longsword forward fiercely.

Chen Huai'an shifted his stance, his body spinning with it. He pushed off the ground with his toes, narrowly avoiding Pi Peng's thrusting sword. With a backflip, he unleashed the second move of his Flaming Blade Technique, slashing directly at the yellow-faced man.

"Pfft!"

The yellow-faced man wanted to work with Pi Peng to kill Chen Huai'an, but his attack was still in mid-air when Chen Huai'an's blade came down on him without warning. Before he could even react, one of his arms was severed off.

"what!"

A heart-wrenching scream rang out, and the yellow-faced man's face turned deathly pale.

As soon as Chen Huai'an's toes touched the ground, he continued his attack on the yellow-faced man.

Chen Huai'an, the sallow-faced man, was caught in a flash—it's a long story, but in reality, it happened in the blink of an eye.

In fact, Chen Huai'an controlled the battlefield with his divine sense. His attack on Pi Peng was just a pretext. His only target was the yellow-faced man.

This guy is a threat. Unless we take him down, he won't be able to focus on fighting Pippen.

"You bastard, how dare you!" Pi Peng roared in anger. He didn't want his trained subordinate to die in front of him like this.

"Die!" Chen Huai'an showed no mercy. Since he had made his move, he should eliminate the threat completely.

There are no rules in this place.

The yellow-faced man was already injured and his perception was impaired, so he was caught off guard and attacked Pi Peng right under his nose.

Chen Huai'an's back was now completely exposed to Pi Peng's attack range, but Chen Huai'an ignored it and unleashed the third move of the Flaming Blade Technique, slashing directly at the unsuspecting yellow-faced man.

This time, the yellow-faced man had no chance of escaping and was beheaded by Chen Huai'an with a single blow.

Even in death, he couldn't understand why, from the moment they made their move to his death in battle, it was only a few breaths.

Why would they provoke such a ruthless person?

"Bang!"

Pi Peng reacted quickly; seizing the moment, without gathering his strength, he thrust his sword directly into Chen Huai'an's back.

Faced with Pi Peng's hasty attack, Chen Huai'an pushed his Elephant Armor Technique to its limit, but he was still hit by the opponent's sword, the sharp tip of which pierced his back.

The scene of blood gushing out did not appear. He was struck by that tremendous force, and he leaned forward to dissipate some of the force. He endured the pain, turned around, and slashed directly at Pi Peng with his long sword.

Fighting for one's life.

Faced with Chen Huai'an's all-out attack, a jade pendant at Pi Peng's waist suddenly shattered, and a yellow light shield appeared in front of him, protecting him.

"Damn bastard, how dare you hurt me! I am a prodigy on the Qingyun Sect's Spirit Ranking, and a direct descendant of the Pi family, a family of immortal cultivators. My Pi family and the Qingyun Sect will definitely tear you to pieces!" Pi Peng looked at the hideous wounds left on his body by Chen Huai'an, who had traded injuries for injuries. If it weren't for the protective jade pendant, he would probably be a cold corpse by now.

"The prodigies on the Spirit Ranking, direct descendants of the Pi family, a family of immortal cultivators." A look of understanding appeared on Chen Huai'an's face. Sure enough, these people were difficult to kill; they all had powerful backgrounds.

The other party claimed to be a prodigy on the Spirit Ranking, but he didn't know the person's ranking on the Spirit Ranking.

If he were placed on the Spirit Ranking now, how much would his ranking improve, and how many places would he reach?

"Fellow Daoist, no matter your background, today, this matter is our fault. You also killed two of my companions. If you leave now, my Pi family will definitely not cause you any trouble." Pi Peng knew that he was no match for Chen Huai'an, so he could only apologize.

If he continues fighting, he will only face death.

"Still want to cause me trouble? Then die!" Chen Huai'an shouted and slashed at Pi Peng with his knife again.

Regardless of the other party's background, since they've made a move, especially in this desolate wilderness, it would be foolish not to kill them.

He didn't believe the other party's promise not to cause him any trouble.

If we release the tiger back into the mountains, the other party will definitely retaliate fiercely.

The best course of action is to eliminate the root of the problem and destroy all evidence, so that no one will know that he did it.

Even if they have photos of him, it's not his real face, so he's not afraid at all. If they offend him, they'll just kill him.

"My protective jade pendant is broken. The Pi family has received the news. If you don't want to be hunted down by a Qi Refining Realm Immortal Master, you'd better run away quickly, otherwise your death will be the day my Pi family's experts arrive." Pi Peng stared intently at Chen Huai'an.

His protective jade pendant could withstand a full-force attack from a first-level Qi Refining Immortal Master. Chen Huai'an, not being at the Body Refining Realm, couldn't break through his defense at all. With his protective jade pendant shattered, the Pi family received the signal, and their Qi Refining Realm disciples nearby would rush to his aid immediately.

Chen Huai'an naturally didn't believe Pi Peng's words, and unleashed his Flaming Blade Technique, slashing directly at Pi Peng.

Faced with Chen Huai'an's domineering attack, he didn't even try to dodge, believing that Chen Huai'an couldn't break through his defense.

The yellow light shield didn't react at all when the slash was made, as if it had vanished into thin air.

The defense of this light shield is even stronger than the restrictions on the cultivator's cave.

If he cannot break through the opponent's defenses in a short time, the Pi family experts will definitely come to his rescue. If he stays behind, he will only face certain death.

Chen Huai'an made a decision instantly: since he couldn't break through the defense, he should stop while he was ahead.

He collected the storage bags containing the two men he had killed, along with the spiritual weapons they had used, and then raced towards the Qingyun Mountains.

Not long after Chen Huai'an left, a cultivator at the first level of Qi Refining suddenly rushed out of the trading market. Following his senses, he ran wildly towards where Pi Peng was.
