Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

#193 - Chapter 192 Strong Enemy

The four followed the fork in the road from which the bat swarm had come, heading inward, with Zhang Yuanjing still controlling the magical artifact in the lead, and the other three following behind. After traveling about three miles, they saw that the terrain ahead opened up, revealing a large cave. The four looked up, but did not find the nest of the Yin Fire Bats.

Zhang Yuanjing turned his head and asked Wu Jixiong, "Fellow Daoist Wu, is there a mistake?"

Wu Jixiong lowered his head to observe the movements of the Cang Monkey, then shook his head and said, "It's nearby. The Cang Monkey is reacting strongly, perhaps there are still many Yin Fire Bats!"

Lin Dushan asked with a slightly surprised expression, "Fellow Daoist Wu, are you implying that the five hundred Yin Fire Bats are not all the bat demons here?"

Wu Jixiong pondered for a moment, a trace of anticipation flashing in his eyes: "It's also possible that there is a stronger Yin Fire Bat, such as a Yin Fire Bat King at the Great Perfection of Qi Transformation!"

Lin Dushan nodded thoughtfully.

Qing Weihong widened his eyes and asked, "Fellow Daoist Wu, are you confident?"

Wu Jixiong sighed softly, and said with some helplessness, "Previously, Wu had said that if special pills were used to stimulate everyone's potential, the Four Symbols Absolute Kill Array could temporarily exert its full power. However, afterwards, everyone would suffer some damage, and it would be difficult to recover without ten days or half a month. This, because it involves pills, Wu also thought it would be best not to use them.

"Now, because there may be a strong demon ahead, Wu has considered it again and again, and still distributed the pills to the three of you. The three of you can inspect them first, and decide for yourselves whether to use them or not in a critical moment. At that time, if the array cannot resist the enemy, we will flee separately and find a safe place to reunite."

After saying that, he took out three green jade porcelain bottles from his storage bag and threw them out one by one. Zhang, Qing, and Lin all reached out to catch them.

"This pill is called Boiling Blood Powder," Wu Jixiong did not explain too much.

Zhang Yuanjing opened the bottle stopper and sniffed it, and a pungent bloody smell came out, as if it was refined from the blood and flesh of demon beasts.

Qing Weihong held the pill in his hand, repeatedly inspecting it while asking, "Fellow Daoist Wu, this pill looks like it's for stimulating bloodlines, could it be a body refining pill?"

Wu Jixiong said in surprise, "Fellow Daoist Qing has good knowledge, this pill is indeed for enhancing the physical body. When the array forcibly increases its power, it will cause a great burden on your physical bodies. Without this pill, I'm afraid that you would suffer from ruptured meridians at best, and collapsed physical bodies at worst."

Qing Weihong nodded, put away the pill, and stopped talking.

Lin Dushan's reaction was the most peculiar. He neither looked nor asked, and put the porcelain bottle into his storage bag as soon as he got it, with a look of indifference. It was unknown whether he had made up his mind not to use it, or if he had other ideas.

Wu Jixiong took in the reactions of the others, and a strange look appeared in his eyes, but it was fleeting and not noticed by the other three.

Zhang Yuanjing continued to explore the path ahead, and the four moved forward slowly. The further they went, the wider the cave became, and there were cave passages connected on both sides every ten or so zhang. After walking about half a mile, they faintly heard the sound of fighting ahead. The hearts of the four sank, knowing that other cultivators must have taken the lead.

Zhang Yuanjing paused and stopped. The three people following behind also stopped at the same time.

Cultivators who dared to go deep into the abyss below two thousand zhang must be strong, and definitely not easy to deal with. Moreover, due to the restriction of divine sense, they would not know which camp the opponent belonged to, or how many people there were until they got close. However, no matter which camp it was, they had worked so hard to defeat the bat swarm, how could they allow the other party to pick up the cheap?

Just as the four were about to discuss, the sound of fighting ahead subsided and became barely audible.

Wu Jixiong exclaimed in a low voice, "Not good, the other party is about to succeed. Let's not worry about so much, let's rush over and see."

The four rushed forward, and after walking one and a half miles, the cave had expanded to a hundred zhang wide and ten zhang high, revealing a bit of emptiness.

At this time, the four had already seen clearly that there were two cultivators, one in green and one in black, holding magical instruments and staring at the top.

As soon as the four appeared, the two turned their heads to look, their eyes revealing fierce gazes. One of them shouted, "This place has already been occupied by our Thousand Jun Duo. You wait, leave quickly, otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite!"

The four were stunned when they heard this, and immediately stopped. They had come to question them with great momentum, but the words "Thousand Jun Duo" seemed to weigh a thousand jun, making the four of them unable to move.

Among the Star Moon Sect's camp, there were eleven rogue cultivators, and the two strongest were the so-called Thousand Jun Duo - Thousand Mountain Master and Jun Ming Master. The two were former disciples of the Zixia Sect, a large sect in the southwest. They were expelled from the sect for committing a major offense, but because their master had a very high status in the sect and was extremely protective of his shortcomings, he finally saved the two's cultivation methods and cultivation.

The two did not dare to be active around the sect anymore, so they ran to the land of the six sects to make a living. These two were originally elite disciples in the Zixia Sect, and their cultivation foundation was very solid. They were very strong, and with the background of the Zixia Sect, they had always acted domineeringly, and would kill at the slightest disagreement. After cultivating to the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment stage, the two defeated strong enemies and gained a considerable reputation among the Foundation Establishment cultivators in this area.

The green-clothed Daoist was Jun Ming Master, with a long face, short beard, collapsed nose, and small eyes. He was in his forties, and was the one who had spoken just now. Seeing that reporting his name had scared the other party, he smiled disdainfully.

The black-clothed scholar was Thousand Mountain Master, who looked only thirty years old, with delicate eyebrows and eyes, and a refined temperament. He held a three-inch-sized golden magpie in his hand. He only glanced at the four of them, and seeing that they were all "unknown people", he still looked up at the holes in the cave ceiling, with a puzzled expression on his face.

Wu Jixiong looked at the three, Zhang Yuanjing nodded, Qing Weihong shook his head, and Lin Dushan did not react with a gloomy face.

Wu Jixiong slightly opened a gap in the spirit beast bag, and immediately noticed that the several Cang Monkeys in the bag were shaking violently. He was both excited and angry, looking at the two people in green and black blocking the front, his thoughts turned frequently, and he hesitated.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, what do you say?" He transmitted his voice to Lin Dushan.

"Is that the Yin Fire Bat nest? What a large area!" Lin Dushan asked instead.

"That's right," Wu Jixiong's face was uncertain.

"Then kill them. Based on just the two of them, if they didn't have the Zixia Sect background, they would have been hacked to death ten or eight times already. In this cave, why worry so much!" Lin Dushan said fiercely.

Hearing this, Wu Jixiong immediately made up his mind, took two steps forward and said loudly, "Fellow Daoists, this is not right. The bat swarm here was defeated by the four of us, that is why they were so weak just now. The two of you want to come later and pick up the cheap, but the four of us cannot agree!"

Jun Ming Master saw that there were four people on the other side, and that the Yin Fire Bat nest above his head was a bit strange, so he did not want to fight. He did not expect that the other party would be so ignorant, and was immediately annoyed. He smiled sinisterly: "What, you want to fight with Daoist? Four heads, you have to send them to Daoist, even if Daoist has the virtue of good life, he has to accept them with a smile!"

After saying that, he threw up the magical instrument in his hand, which was a jade fan. He cast a spell, and the jade fan unfolded in the air, fanning up and down, and wisps of white smoke sprayed out from it, enveloping the four people.

The four had already taken out magical instruments to defend themselves. At this time, seeing the smoke coming over and filling the cave, they did not know how to deal with it, and only retreated a few steps before being surrounded by the smoke.

Jun Ming Master and Thousand Mountain Master had both obtained the true inheritance in the Zixia Sect, and had cultivated the sect's top inheritance, the Zixia Smoke Dust Qi. Once this smoke gushed out, it would often cover a large area of space. Enemies in it would have their divine sense and five senses suppressed, while the caster in it could use the smoke to grasp the opponent's movements. If the cultivation reached a high level, the smoke could also be used to cover the aura of magical instruments and treasures, and quietly sneak attack opponents.

The biggest advantage of this smoke is that it is not afraid of group battles, and can attack, defend, fight, and escape. This is also the confidence that the Thousand Jun Duo does not take Zhang Yuanjing and the four others seriously.

In the cave, the advantages of this smoke qi were fully demonstrated. Zhang Yuanjing and the four others had nowhere to hide, and had to fight against the smoke.

Wu Jixiong transmitted his voice to the three, first setting up the Four Symbols Absolute Kill Array, so that the four could use the array to defend against the opponent's attacks. At the same time, they could also identify each other's positions, so as not to be defeated one by one by the Thousand Jun Duo.

As soon as the Four Symbols Array was set up, the Thousand Jun Duo noticed it.

Thousand Mountain Master had already retracted his gaze from the holes above his head at this time, and smiled coldly, offering a judge's pen, which transformed into a huge pen tip, flowing with golden light and shining brightly, pecking towards Lin Dushan, who looked like he had the weakest aura. He always remembered the abnormal reaction of the golden magpie, and only wanted to quickly solve the enemy in front of him, so he made a full effort as soon as he came up.

Lin Dushan offered a bronze seal, guarding it tightly. His eyes flickered, not knowing what he was planning, and he did not care much about Thousand Mountain Master's strong attack.

The other three were blocked by the smoke, and although they knew that Lin Dushan was being attacked by the enemy, they could not lock on to the opponent's magical instrument, nor could they capture the accurate position of the Thousand Jun Duo. For a time, they could not help. Moreover, Jun Ming Master was also controlling two flying swords, circling back and forth above the three's heads, doing his best to deter and contain them.

After a dozen breaths, Wu Jixiong became a little anxious, took out a few low-grade inferior attack talismans, and fired them towards the position of the Thousand Jun Duo in his memory, but there was no reaction. Obviously, these two had already moved elsewhere, and were even constantly changing positions.

The four were unable to find the accurate positions of the Thousand Jun Duo. The Thousand Jun Duo could attack unscrupulously, and in a short time, they suppressed the four to death.

A few breaths later, they only heard a "crack", and Lin Dushan's bronze seal could not withstand the continuous pecking of Thousand Mountain Master's judge's pen, and shattered into several pieces.

Lin Dushan snorted coldly, his expression unchanged, and offered a blood-colored flying sword to fight with the judge's pen. The quality of this flying sword was even worse than the bronze seal. It was also broken into two pieces before long. Lin Dushan did not say a word, and waved a four-foot-long machete, its color was dark red, and its blood qi floated, opening and closing, and quickly forced the short and powerful judge's pen to stop.

A look of surprise appeared in Thousand Mountain Master's eyes. He did not know what mystery this knife had, that it could stick so closely to the judge's pen, which was known for its speed. After a few breaths, he finally understood that there was a suction force in this knife, pulling the judge's pen towards the knife, so it looked like the knife was sticking to the pen, but in fact, the pen was being pulled over.

Thousand Mountain Master whistled towards Jun Ming Master. Jun Ming Master's two flying swords swished and surrounded Lin Dushan's machete, while Thousand Mountain Master's judge's pen retreated and roamed around the other people. The judge's pen was elusive. Although there was only one, its deterrent power was even stronger. The three did not dare to be careless, using a bit of divine sense to the extreme, locking on to the surrounding five zhang, staring at the pen, not giving it a chance to sneak attack.

After fighting for more than a dozen breaths, Lin Dushan's machete was no match for Jun Ming Master's two flying swords. Its luster was dim, and its blood qi was exhausted. He had no choice but to change to a black iron steel fork to barely defend.

He had already transmitted his voice to the three: "Three fellow Daoists, Lin is struggling to support himself, quickly think of a way to break this smoke, otherwise we will be defeated one by one by these two!"
